Silence, still silence, even though Gongsun Ming had tried his best, Zhao Yun still remained silent, and his face did not even change slightly. It seemed that he was not moved by Gongsun Ming's grand plan. On the contrary, he seemed to be considering how to resign. Once this situation occurred, Gongsun Ming was really anxious. For nothing else, his current situation can only be described as "poor and useless". If Zhao Yun is lost again, If things go wrong with this crutch, it will really lead to a "One Day Tour of the Three Kingdoms".
He was anxious, but Gongsun Ming did not lose his sense of proportion, probably because he knew very well that he must not show the slightest sign of anxiety at this time. Not only that, to show his sincerity, not only could he not speak again, he could not even stand aside silently. The other three white-horse loyalists will have some hints, otherwise it will be too much, so even though his heart has been turbulent for a long time, the sincere look on Gongsun Ming's face has never changed. At the moment, all he can hope for is It only depends on whether the other three generals are willing to lend a helping hand.
"Brother Zilong, what the young master said is true. We have all received great kindness from the master, how can we not avenge this blood feud for the master!"
After a long silence, a bearded general finally spoke to persuade him. His surname was Shen, with the single character Fei and Xushan, a native of Youzhou. He was thirty-three years old. Gongsun Zan has served as a general for nearly ten years, and his feelings for the Gongsun family are obviously much deeper than that of Zhao Yun.
"Yes, brother Zilong, although the young master is young, he is very knowledgeable. With our careful assistance, he will definitely become a great person in the future."
"Brother Zilong, don't hesitate. As generals, we should start well and end well."
Although Shen Fei's martial arts skills were far inferior to those of Zhao Yun, he was the veteran of Baima Yi and had always had a high prestige. As soon as he opened his mouth, the other two generals Sun Mi and Lu Tao also joined in with him.
"Well……"
Hearing everyone's words of advice, Zhao Yun was obviously a little unkind, but in his heart he still wanted to surrender to Liu Bei. Faced with the dilemma, he didn't even know how to say his resignation.
"Brother Zilong, I have a suggestion. Let's put it this way, I will make a bet with you. If I can defeat Yuan Shaojun three times in a row, Brother Zilong will stay and help me. If I can't, I will be shameless. Brother Zilong is here to stay, do you think this is possible?"
Seeing that Shen Fei and others all started to persuade him, but Zhao Yun still refused to express his position. Gongsun Ming was really sad in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. He could only grit his teeth secretly and said There are stringent prerequisites.
"Second Young Master's words are serious. Yun just goes back to Bohai County with Second Young Master."
Gongsun Ming had already spoken so much that Zhao Yun couldn't keep silent any longer, so he reluctantly got off the donkey on the slope.
"Haha... Okay, thank you brother Zilong Gao Yi, let's go to Bohai County!"
Even if Zhao Yun's attitude was reluctant, for Gongsun Ming, being able to temporarily stabilize Zhao Yun was a huge victory. In order to prevent long nights and long dreams, he did not dare to delay for a moment. He turned over with a laugh and got on the horse. Before Zhao Yun and others Under the escort, we galloped all the way south...
"Who among you dare to break into the camp without permission?"
Gongsun Ming and his party originally planned to rush to Zhangwucheng first, but they never thought that just as they reached the boundary of Wen'an County, they heard from the fleeing people that Gongsun Fan, the governor of Bohai, wanted to rescue Youzhou and mobilized all the soldiers and horses in the county to rush north. However, they were blocked by General Chun Yuqiong of Yuan Shao's army on the ground in Wen'an County. They lost two battles in a row. They had no choice but to retreat to Wen'an County and set up camp near the city to defend themselves. Upon hearing this, Gongsun Ming immediately changed his itinerary and led his troops. Zhao Yun and others rushed to the Bohai Navy camp. As soon as they arrived at the camp gate, they were stopped by the Bohai Navy patrol sentry.
"I have escorted the young lord Gongsun Ming here. Please inform the prefect Gongsun on my behalf."
Shen Fei is older and has a calm temperament. Whenever something happens along the way, he will always come forward to make things right, and this time is no exception.
"Wait!" Seeing that Gongsun Ming and his party were all extraordinary, the patrol leader did not dare to neglect him, but he did not let Gongsun Ming and others enter the camp. He only left an explanation and hurriedly marched through the camp. In the camp, after a while, I heard a burst of chaotic footsteps. A middle-aged general wearing a golden chainmail, surrounded by a large number of entourage, walked quickly out of the camp. This man It was Gongsun Fan, the third younger brother of Gongsun Zan.
"Uncle……"
Before Gongsun Fan could stand firm, Gongsun Ming, who had already dismounted from his horse, stumbled forward, fell to his knees on the ground, shouted once, and started to cry loudly, which was a loss for his acting skills. Okay, now that I'm crying, it really seems like that's what happened.
"Ming'er? It's really you, what's going on?"
Gongsun Fan had not yet heard the news of his brother's death, so he was shocked when he saw that the man kneeling in front of him wailing was actually his nephew. "Uncle, Yi Jing has been captured, my father's commander has been killed, and Yuan's troops are killing people in the city. If Zhao, Shen and other generals hadn't saved them desperately, my nephew might never see his uncle again."
Gongsun Ming did not conceal the news that Yi Jingji had been breached, but when he saw Yi Jingji wiping away tears and full of grief and indignation, he told the truth.
"ah……"
Although Gongsun Fan is said to be both civil and military, in fact, he is average in literature and average in military affairs. The reason why he became the governor of Bohai is not because he has any extraordinary qualities. It is entirely because Yuan Shao specially gave the Bohai territory to Gongsun Zan in the first place. Gongsun Fan, that's all. In other words, Gongsun Fan was actually just a hair attached to Gongsun Zan's skin. Now when he heard that his brother was dead, Gongsun Fan was at a loss and was stunned on the spot.
"Uncle, Yuan Benchu bullied others too much. It's not worth his father's death. Uncle, please make the decision for my nephew..."
Although he had known from his predecessor’s memory that Gongsun Fan’s third uncle was extremely mediocre, but seeing his confused look, Gongsun Ming couldn’t help but slander him. Of course, he felt disdain in his heart, but he He absolutely wouldn't reveal anything at all, he just kowtowed and begged.
"Don't be impatient tomorrow. Come on, let's go to the tent first. It's not too late to wait until we get in."
The reason why Gongsun Fan dared to mobilize all the troops in the county to come to the rescue was not because he was daring, but because he firmly believed that Yuan Jun would definitely not be able to capture Yijing. In his opinion, although Yuan Shao came with great momentum this time, he could not win. In the end, Shao Shao would inevitably be beaten and run away like he had done a few times before, but he never thought that his eldest brother, whom he always regarded as a god, would be defeated so quickly. His heart suddenly became weak. At this moment, all he could think about was He quickly fled back to Zhangwu to defend himself, but how could he dare to agree to Gongsun Ming's request? It was obviously difficult to say such words in front of everyone, and all Gongsun Fan could do was to look around. Just talk to him...
