Chapter 075: The Verge 1
What happened after Guo Tu left was expected by Yuan Lang, and the soldiers in the council hall who disguised themselves as "generals" were all veteran ruffians that Yuan Lang found from the garrison camp, and asked them to fool Guo Tu according to their own face-to-face methods.

Sure enough, in less than an hour, someone came to report that Guo Tu left the council hall in disappointment and returned to the post station.
It seems that Guo Tu, who has failed to surrender, has given up, and it will be a matter of time before he leaves the county town and returns to the barracks.
"Seal the gates of the city, and no one shall leave the city!"
This is a military order given by Yuan Lang, and the soldiers who received the military order hurriedly went down to convey it to the generals guarding the city gates everywhere.
"Husband, since Guo Tu can't be killed, do you want to trap him in the city?"
Zhang Ning didn't know Yuan Lang's true intentions, so he asked.
Yuan Lang shook his head and replied: "Trapped is not trapped, the key to this war is not Guo Tu, let's kill or not, trapped or not, as long as we don't surrender, the result will be the same." If Yan Liang can't wait for Guo Tu to order the siege of the city soon, time is more precious to them than ours, they can't afford to wait! ”
Zhang Ning asked incomprehensibly, "Then husband, why don't you just send him out of the city?" Is there any other purpose for keeping them in the city? ”
Yuan Lang sighed and said: "Talents are rare, there are eggs under the nest, if I can, I hope Guo Tu can not go out of the city!" ”
Zhang Ning finally understood what Yuan Lang meant, it turned out that her husband was still afraid that Guo Tu would go out Once the two armies went to war and were affected, wouldn't it ruin the life of a sage, and Guo Tu would definitely be despised by Yan Liang if he failed to persuade him to surrender, and even punished, Yuan Lang would do it, and he also wanted to hope that Guo Tu would be exempted from this trouble.
However, Yuan Lang also knew that these were his own wishful thinking, and as for whether Guo Tu could appreciate it, he couldn't comment.
As expected, as soon as the night fell, Guo Tu's servants sent a letter of resignation, but Yuan Lang avoided it and asked Zhang Ning to receive it on his behalf.
After the servant left, Zhang Ning brought the letter to Yuan Lang, Yuan Lang opened it and saw that it was written sincerely, and of course he did not forget to fight for Yuan Lang's surrender in the end.
Closing the letter, Yuan Lang shook his head and sighed, why is such a reasonable and wise sage powerless to keep it.
However, each is destined to be unable to dig out his heart and lungs, although Yuan Lang has the heart to cherish his talents, but his own strength is limited, and he cannot let him change hands and serve, which is really a pity.
At the beginning of the moon, the soldiers came to report, saying that Guo Tu and his party were stopped by Bai Shuai when they left Xicheng, and asked Yuan Lang what to do.
"What did Bai Shuai say?"
Yuan Lang knew that Zhang Baiqi must have something to bring to him.
"Bai Shuai said, I'd rather kill than let it go!"
Yuan Lang can understand Zhang Baiqi's thoughts, Guo Tu is a talent after all, if he is let go back, wouldn't it make Yan Liang like a tiger.
But Yuan Lang knew that he couldn't do this, firstly, the two armies fought without cutting down to make the ancients already have it, and secondly, Guo Tugang was upright and talented, and it had been recorded in history that Yuan Lang really couldn't do it.
"Tell Bai Shuai, just say my order, don't embarrass Guo Tu and his party, stop them tonight and persuade them to go back to the post house, if they come back tomorrow, then let them out, don't be embarrassed again!"
"No!"
The soldiers were ordered to leave, this was Yuan Lang's last effort for Guo Tu.
It seems that tonight is the last peaceful night that can be spent in the county guard's mansion, if Guo Tu goes back tomorrow, Yan Liang, who knows that he has no intention of surrendering, will definitely unceremoniously overwhelm the territory and approach the city.
Because Zhang Ruyan is still staying overnight in the county guard's mansion, Yuan Lang is still sleeping alone, rare leisure and rare unhindered 360 degrees to turn over the couch, Yuan Lang slept very comfortably.
The sky cleared, a new day had arrived, and it was still a clear morning.
Recently, the weather is like a baby's face, cold and warm, sunny and cloudy, or wind or snow, or rain or hail, Yuan Lang still has no temper, and let God abuse this vast land and the people of Li.
The weather is clear, and it is convenient to do everything, and then Yuan Lang's mood is not as ethereal as this clear and clear sky, what he thinks about is the upcoming war, as soon as the day warms up, the snow will melt soon, and when Yan Liang's army is even more free of obstacles to action, wouldn't it be very handy to attack the city.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the soldiers came to report early in the morning, saying that Guo Tu and his party wanted to leave from Xicheng again, and were intercepted by Bai Shuai Zhang Baiqi again, and the two sides were in a stalemate, Guo Tu even forced each other to die, and was willing to die under the knife without leaving the city.
Zhang Baiqi did not follow the instructions he gave him yesterday, which was unexpected to Yuan Lang, and now Guo Tu has to go out of the city, Zhang Baiqi continues to obstruct it like this, I am afraid that he will really make himself infamous for killing the enemy envoy.
"Take my letter, give it to Bai Shuai, and let him act accordingly!"
Yuan Lang personally wrote a "release order" and asked his subordinates to send it to Zhang Baiqi, hoping that Zhang Baiqi would not fall into an embarrassing situation for himself.
Not long after the letter was delivered, the soldiers who brought the letter to Zhang Baiqi finally brought back the news that Yuan Lang wanted, that is, Zhang Baiqi let Guo Tu and others out of the city, and there was no danger and no unnecessary bloodshed.
Without further ado, Yuan Lang also hurried out of the county guard mansion to Xicheng, the top priority of defense, just now Guo Tu was there Yuan Lang didn't dare to come in order to avoid suspicion, and now Guo Tu has gone out of the city, so Yuan Lang has no worries.
As soon as he arrived in Xicheng, Yuan Lang immediately went to Zhang Baiqi to understand the situation, Zhang Baiqi told the story, it seems that Yuan Lang has won two days for his own side has made the defense everywhere to the extreme, and now the people are strong and the fortifications are enough, as long as Yan Liang dares to come, he will be asked to pay a painful price.
Yuan Lang was very satisfied with Zhang Baiqi's introduction, but after this topic was revealed, Zhang Baiqi and Yuan Lang inevitably talked about the issue of releasing Guo Tu.
"Guo Tu is Yan Liangjun's think tank, let this person go back, wouldn't it be a tiger to return to the mountain, why not get rid of one once and for all?"
Zhang Baiqi also listened to Yuan Lang introduce Guo Tu to him later, as for Guo Tu's ability, Yuan Lang did not brag, Zhang Baiqi also agreed with this, so he had the idea of embarrassing Guo Tu to go out of the city and want to keep or kill Guo Tu.
"It's easy to get a daughter, it's hard to find, Guo Tu is a benevolent and righteous person, but each is his master, trapping his heart is rare, and killing him is afraid of being infamous, doesn't Bai Shuai understand the stakes?"
Yuan Lang knew that Zhang Baiqi was not a stupid person, and when he said this, he hoped that Zhang Baiqi could jump out of his own circle to look at the problem, instead of blindly drilling the horns of the bull.
Zhang Baiqi didn't understand the truth that Yuan Lang said, but he understood more clearly that Guo Tu, a confidant like him, would sooner or later bring them hardships far more terrible than infamy, and it was better to get rid of him as soon as possible than to regret it when the time came.
However, since this matter has become a foregone conclusion, he Zhang Baiqi also knows that there is no point in arguing with Yuan Lang anymore, what they have to do now is how to meet the upcoming war, this is their common mind. (To be continued.) )
