Chapter 117: Xia Gaoxian (4)
"Lord, don't use that thing in the future!" Yang Yi said to Gongsun Du with a sad face.
Speaking of that thing, Yang Yi was so worried that he didn't even dare to mention his name, but just replaced it with that thing.
Gongsun Du is not much different, and his face is also full of sadness.
That thing, surnamed Ba, Mingdou, full name Croton, is a kind of strongly corrosive, oh, wrong, it should be called corrosive, eroding the internal organs, so that all the creatures who have enjoyed it will come to a vigorous cleaning operation.
It is indeed vigorous, and now there is a stench wafting in the entire Gaoxian City, if this is not vigorous, then how can it be counted?
Some time ago, because of Gongsun Chen's lack of face, Gongsun Du knew that this battle was inevitable. Of course, not only because of the problem of face, but also because the Liao team is developing too fast now, and Yu Buyeo has become a mortal enemy, oh, if he has killed so many people, and he is not a mortal enemy, it can only be said that the heart of King Buyeo is really big enough, obviously this is impossible, otherwise his throne cannot be stable. More strength is needed to develop, which means that the territory needs to be expanded.
However, even if the other cities in Liaodong are taken, it is useless, in a word - no one!
What's the use of having as many cities as there are no one!
In addition, Gongsun Du also had the intention of testing Xu Rong, if Xu Rong could accept his actions against other counties, it would mean that he was really interested in him.
Therefore, Gongsun Chen can be regarded as bumping into it himself.
At the same time, it also made Gongsun Du understand Xu Rong's thoughts, which can be said to be very happy.
It's just that with the situation of the Liao team, it is not so easy to successfully win Xuansu, Goguryeo and other three counties are okay, but it is not so simple for Gao Xian and Xigaima.
After thinking about it, after discussing with Zhang Hong and Wei You, Gongsun Du found that he could only think of a way from other aspects, and finally Gongsun Du thought of this thing. This thing can not only make the enemy unable to resist, but also can not damage the enemy's life, which can be said to be a must-have at home...... Uh, that......
Therefore, I asked Hua Tuo for some croton. At that time, Gongsun Du was warned by Hua Tuo for a while, telling him not to mess around.
It's a good method, but this is the effect!
Not only does it hurt others, but it also seems to hurt yourself!
Now Yangyi, the person who does it, has a psychological shadow, and they all beg Gongsun Du not to use it again in the future. I just don't know if it was really smoked a little miserably, or because he did it, worried that he would be beaten to death by others?
"Okay, let everyone pay attention, before Captain Xu comes, there must be no slackness." Gongsun Du said angrily. The reason is that he covered his mouth and nose with a piece of linen, and even if he opened his mouth to speak, he did not mean to let go.
In this regard, Gongsun Du has a reason, as a former high-achieving student, the taste is composed of solid particles, but if you smell the taste, it is equivalent to eating solid, so in order to avoid eating in your mouth and nose, you should cover your mouth and nose with a burlap.
Yang Yi didn't have this treatment, not to say that he didn't know the reason, just said that as a subordinate, he covered his mouth and nose like something, and how to protect people.
"Don't worry, my lord, although the current situation is difficult, everyone can still be patient." Yang Yi frowned, and replied very solemnly, "I just hope that Xu Duwei can come as soon as possible, otherwise even if he is not stinky to death, he will be disgusted to death." ”
Gongsun Du nodded and didn't speak again, he felt that even if he was covered with a sackcloth, it was not very safe, so it was better not to speak as much as possible.
……
The soldiers defending the city seemed to be galloping towards them, and they immediately raised their vigilance, and when they stopped a hundred feet outside the city gate, they asked in a loud voice, "Who is the one who came down from the city?" In fact, he has seen that he is his own person who comes to ride, but for the sake of safety, the necessary process is indispensable.
"On the order of Lord Lieutenant You, I came to report that the army of the Lord has traveled twenty miles away and is about to arrive at the city."
The soldiers defending the city were overjoyed when they heard this, because his position on the city wall was high, but the smell was somehow quite strong, and it was much worse than in the city.
"Okay, thank you brother, so-and-so will be the lord."
Not long after, Gongsun Du knew the news of Xu Rong's imminent arrival, and hurriedly took Yangyi and others to the city gate.
On the city wall, Gongsun Du saw the dust flying in the distance, and immediately understood that Xu Rong had accelerated the speed of the march, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart. It's just that the smell of the city walls is too much.
Gongsun Du had the heart to wait under the city, but after thinking about it, he decided to endure it and continue to stay on the city wall. Fortunately, Xu Rong's speed was indeed fast enough, and he didn't let Gongsun Du endure it for long before he arrived not far from the city.
"Open the gates!"
Without waiting for Xu Rong to send someone to report, Gongsun Du asked people to open the city gate. Because from the military appearance and his extraordinary eyesight, he has already seen that the person who came is Xu Rong.
When the soldiers heard the order, they couldn't wait to open the city gates, as if the air outside the city was particularly fresh. Not to mention, it was indeed fresh enough, and every soldier couldn't help but take a few deep sips.
To say that this taste, although unbearable, but also brought convenience to Gongsun Du, otherwise there is a real possibility of accidents. It is precisely because of this smell that Gongsun Du has an excuse to block the city in a grand manner, after all, this movement is known to the whole city (fortunately, the city is not big), who will take two more sips if they don't believe it? Good for deodorization? (Tell me, if there is a boss who eats, don't blame me!) )
said that Xu Rong, seeing from a distance that the city gate was actually closed, his heart couldn't help but sink, but because of the return of his subordinates before, he did not immediately order to stop advancing, but only made a vigilant gesture to several Qu Commanders on his side.
Subsequently, there were still a hundred zhang (two or three hundred meters) from the city, and the advance could be attacked, and the retreat could be defended, and when Xu Rong was about to give the order to stop advancing, he saw the city gate being opened, as if to welcome his arrival. There was a moment of hesitation on his face, not knowing whether he should go directly into the city.
Judging from the troops brought by Gongsun Du and the previous letters, it is very likely that there will be an accident, and now it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be a trap set by the enemy. Although Xu Rong also didn't believe that the "enemy" would use such a trap full of loopholes, it was not a big mistake to be careful!
Fortunately, Gongsun Du knew that Xu Rong had always been cautious, and he was worried about causing a misunderstanding, so after taking a deep breath, he shouted: "Xu Duwei, a certain family is here!" ”
Only then did Xu Rong's doubts be solved, and he didn't stop, and went straight to the city gate. What no one knows is that at this time, Xu Rong still has the last bit of vigilance in his heart, that is, Gongsun Du did not do this voluntarily, but was coerced and lured.
Approaching the city gate, a strange smell wafted in.
Hey, this croton is not only a top-level laxative, but also a top-notch odorant.
Xu Rong frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, because he saw Gongsun Du.
"It's okay, nothing happened."
Xu Rong's heart was relieved, he turned over and dismounted and walked forward quickly, and bowed: "Subordinate Xu Rong see your lord!" ”
"Good, good!" Gongsun Du was very happy and said three good in a row, and then said, "I'll leave it to you here, go out of the city first." ”
And when he had said that, he went out of the city gate.
Yang Yi was stunned at first, and then overjoyed, "Xu Duwei, you go by yourself, and you go to protect the lord." After speaking, with a wave of his hand, he followed behind Gongsun Du with hundreds of personal soldiers.
Xu Rong couldn't help but wonder: What happened? Why are they all like ...... Escape?
Xu Rong wanted to ask what this strange smell was, but it couldn't be done for the time being. However, he did not refuse, and immediately arranged for his soldiers to take over the city, while looking for the source of the strange smell.
After Xu Rong knew what was going on, he immediately opened all the city gates, which were actually only three, and at the same time let the people in the city enter and exit freely. As for the soldiers in the barracks who had become soft-footed shrimps, Xu Rong could only arrange for some people to take care of them with a bitter face, and they were not allowed to go out of the camp for half a step, not even close.
An hour or two later, Gongsun Du received a message from Xu Rong and returned to the city, and when he saw Xu Rong again, his face was a little embarrassed.
Xu Rong didn't seem to see it, and said with a serious face: "My lord, although those prisoners in the barracks are weak and powerless now, and they don't have the strength to resist, as long as we give him food, they will recover sooner or later, so my subordinates suggest that my lord immediately escort these people back to the Liao team, or Goguryeo and other cities, and disperse them, so that it is convenient for the guards not to mention, but also to disperse their forces, so that even if they want to resist, they must think carefully." ”
After hearing this, Gongsun Du was silent for a while, and said: "That's fine, Zhou Xian's diehards should have been killed in the previous attack, and if the rest of the people can really surrender, it will be a good force." ”
Also, if he is not a diehard member of Zhou Xian, he will not bring him to the county office.
