Chapter 279: Alliance under the City
Under the city of Cong, there were more than ten kilograms of stones everywhere, almost piled up into hills, and there were still a lot of bamboos across the hills. Seeing these stones and bamboos, Gao Yuan laughed happily. These were his masterpieces. When he and Tan Feng were besieging the city of Cong City, he had nothing to do. He used the bamboo of the bowl to make countless oversized slingshots and sent the stones to the city. The opponent was so shocked that he was so scared that he was a ghost crying and howling.
Thinking about the scene, it was indeed ridiculous. The outsiders couldn't get in and didn't dare to fight, and the insides didn't dare to come out. They just stood up. However, later, Zhao Qi was really waiting for a way out.
Gao Yuan shook his head, but after this guy suffered such a big defeat, he thought it would be difficult to live after he went back!
The city gate was wide open, and Gao Yuan's eyes were attracted by the carriages and horses coming out of the city. The person who came was not ordinary people. It was the prime minister of Zhao. Zhao's national strength was much stronger than Yan. Over the years, they have resisted the powerful Qin in the west and rejected the Xiongnu in the north, making both powerful enemies unreliable and blocked. Moreover, the prime minister of Zhao named Gongzilan, Gao Yuan, from Zhou Yuan, Tan Feng, Zhou Yu and others, heard the virtuousness of this person. How could the person who could be praised by the enemy also be ordinary people?
He turned over and dismounted, Gao Yuan stepped forward quickly, walked to the oncoming carriage, and bent down and bowed: "The Yan man Gao Yuan, pay homage to the Prime Minister."
The curtain in front of the carriage was lifted, and a face that looked like an old man next door appeared in front of Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan was slightly stunned. There was no trace of the majesty of a country's prime minister from the old man's face. If this person was not sitting in this carriage at this moment, he would not be able to see the identity of this person no matter what.
Gao Yuan, who was slightly distracted, did not realize that it would be rude to stare at the other person like this. Zilan smiled slightly, raised her chin slightly, and her beard raised, "General Gao, I have heard of Daming for a long time!"
"I dare not, I am just Fufeng County Magistrate, I am not allowed to be called the general!" Gao Yuan then came to his senses and couldn't help but curse himself in his heart, really being useless.
Zilan laughed loudly, "County lieutenant? County lieutenant! Zhao Guang, this time, we lost to this county lieutenant!"
On the other side of the carriage, Zhao Guang looked at Gao Yuan fiercely. If it weren't for this kid from Fufeng, the Yishui River, who had no chance to attack the whole city on a stormy night, which caused the defense chain of the five cities to be broken. How could the matter have developed to this stage? However, when the Prime Minister asked about it, Zhao Guang could only nod and said: "Yes, Prime Minister, this Gao County Commander's Military Advocacy Committee was really unexpected. With such weather conditions, no one expected that he would send troops to attack."
Zilan nodded, "He can think and do it, this is better than you!"
"I dare not be praised by the adults!" Gao Yuan shook his head, "This matter is originally based on hard work and seven points relying on luck. I am just lucky. I am not as lucky as General Zhao Guang. If you can shrink your defense according to General Zhao Guang's wishes after I seize the whole city, instead of fighting with our army, I think it is hard to predict who will win between our two countries."
After hearing Gao Yuan say this, Zhao Guang's face finally looked a little better.
Zilan also laughed, "You can talk, let's go, Gao Yuan, get on your horse, beside my carriage, chat with me while walking, you have a lot of legends, I am far away from Zhao State, but I have heard of them! I saw you myself today, but I will tell you to me! Hahaha, when I get to my waist, I will marry me, Gao Yuan, do you know that Ye Jinger's words are now widely circulated in my Great Zhao!"
Gao Yuan was immediately embarrassed and looked at Zilan, and was angry. Why was a dignified national prime minister so gossip? But he was angry, but he couldn't speak, but his face turned red and white. Zilan laughed again, "Zhao Guang, look at our County Captain Gao, after all, he is younger and has a thin face. Gao Yuan, if you really want to marry Ye Jing'er, you have to be thin-skinned, but you must have a thick face and a dark hand. In this way, maybe Ye Tiannan will fall in love with you."
Zhao Guang cooperated with Zilan and laughed loudly. He suffered a great loss on the battlefield. Now, seeing Zilan speak Gao Yuan's face red and purple, he couldn't help but feel happy. After all, he is the Prime Minister, and his polite skills are really neat.
Gao Yuan was speechless, with a thick face, a dark heart and a stingy hand! He looked at Ye Tiannan for a while, turned around and looked at his subordinates, "Return!"
"Yes!" The two hundred Fufeng soldiers answered in unison, and their neat voice scared Zilan. They turned their heads to look at these heroic Fufeng soldiers.
Two hundred Fufeng soldiers turned neatly, and four teams separated and gave way to a highway.
"Please!" Gao Yuan stretched out his hand and said.
Zilan nodded slightly, the carriage started, Gao Yuan turned around and ran towards his horse. Taking advantage of this space, Zilan turned around and asked Zhao Guang, "How?"
Zhao Guang knew that Zilan was asking these soldiers: "Master of the Kingdom, this is the Fufeng soldiers brought by Gao Yuan. I heard Zhao Meng say that on the banks of the Yishui River, these soldiers charged forward and used as vanguards. They are extremely powerful. They attacked the entire city. They are probably the masterpiece of these soldiers. There were more than a thousand such soldiers, but in the battle in Yuyang, half of them were killed or killed. If this was not the case, it would be even more terrifying."
"This person will become a famous general in the world in the future!" Zilan whispered: "The tiger and leopard cavalry have collected a lot of information about this person. I also told Zhao Mu that even Zhao Mu was amazed by his fighting skills with the Donghu people."
"If this child is not eliminated, it will definitely cause me to be a great Zhao in the future!" Zhao Guang suppressed his voice to the lowest point. "Master, you don't want Yan State to have a person like General Zhao Mu!"
Zilan nodded slightly, "I understand, but this boy is having trouble with the grudge between Dayan and the powerful. This time Zhou Yuan actually sent him as a greeting envoy. Don't you find it strange?"
Zhao Guang was stunned, "This son made a great contribution, and Zhou Yuan looked at him differently."
"Don't forget Ye Tiannan, Ye Tiannan's people, Zhou Yuan looked at him with a different eye?" Zilan said with a smile.
"Don't Ye Tiannan look down on this kid at all? Zhou Yuan took the opportunity to bring him over. Isn't it a timely help to help him at this time? Isn't this kid crying out?" Zhao Guangdao.
Zilan stroked his long beard, "You don't understand, you can't get along with each other, Zhou Yuan, it's interesting, and his thoughts are a bit strange."
"What's strange?" Zhao Guang shook his head and was puzzled.
"Let's go and see!" Zilan smiled without saying a word. At this time, Gao Yuan had already returned from the horses. Zhao Guang turned his head and stopped talking. However, Zilan turned his head, "Gao Yuan, tell me about the battle between you and the Donghu people?"
"It's all small fuss. What a good person, how could the Prime Minister look at such a trick?" Gao Yuan shook his head.
"Thousands of miles of attack on Yulin are not a trick." Zilan said: "Let me tell you this, it's better to play the loneliness of this journey?"
"Since the Prime Minister wants to listen, Gao Yuan said to the Prime Minister!" As long as Zilan did not force himself to tell the allusion of long hair and waist, Gao Yuan was relieved.
A day later, the team appeared in Fangcheng. Compared to Zhou Yuan sending Gao Yuan, a small county magistrate to welcome the dignified prime minister, Zhou Yuan gave Zilan enough face in Fangcheng. He was headed by Zhou Yuan, and the Yan national historian Chunyu Yan who came from Jicheng to negotiate for special trips, and all the Yan generals in Fangcheng welcomed him out together, and welcomed Gongzilan into Fangcheng lively.
The banquet had already been set up in the city, and there were a large row of ministers and generals of Yan State sitting on one side, while on the other end, there were only Zilan and Zhao Guang alone. It didn't look like negotiations, but it looked like trials. Faced with such an arrangement, Zilan could only smile bitterly. Who said that Zhao State has been defeated now, and there is still a request for Yu? Seeing Chunyu Yan, Zilan knew that the other party must have a big talk. Although Chunyu Yan had a close relationship with him, his mouth was really worthy of being unconfused, not to mention that each of them was his own master, private is private, and public is public. If he sat on the negotiation table, then there would be no private friendship.
Zilan had already been mentally prepared. This time, Zhao State was ready to bleed. This was a strategy that Handan had already decided. He was just coming over and taking the blame.
"Brother Zilan, I respect you!" Chunyu Yan stood up with a smile and raised his wine glass to Zilan.
As a small county magistrate, he naturally could not get on the table. Even if Gao Yuan had sent Zilan to Fangcheng, he breathed a sigh of relief and took his troops back to the barracks outside the city. Along the way, he was tortured by Zilan. This national prime minister who looked so smiling and harmless, was even more difficult to pass by than Zhou Yuan. He always asked Gao Yuan sweating profusely and didn't know how to answer. He couldn't help but sigh that those who could sit in this position were not good people.
Compared to Gao Yuan's relief, there was a lot of joy in his barracks. Gao Yuan, as a county lieutenant, was actually sent to serve as a welcome envoy. This is a standard way to promote the situation. All the generals in the barracks were inexplicably excited. One person was at the right time, and the chickens and dogs were ascending to heaven. When Gao Yuan was promoted, they naturally also rose.
Gao Yuan did not have this excitement. Along the way, Zilan always had something in his words, which made him think about it for a while, but he couldn't figure it out. It seemed to be implying something, but it was in a fog and made people confused. This made Gao Yuan very uncomfortable. People like Zilan naturally would not be aimless in their words, not to mention that these words were basically related to themselves.
He is just a little person now. Zilan doesn’t have to deal with him, nor does he have to distract himself from his relationship with Dayan. So, what does Zilan want to do?
