Chapter 178: Persuasion to Surrender

"Gao Guan? It is said that this person and Yuan Shao also have some kinship, originally slightly inferior to Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Zhang He in terms of strength alone, but now they are also as famous as the other three, which is why Yuan Shao even attaches great importance to it. And it is said that he is also very loyal to Yuan Shao, otherwise Yuan Shao would not have put him in Changshan. ”

said so, but Wei Tao also attached great importance to Gao Lan's ability, if it weren't for the persecution of the Yuan brothers, if Gao Ran really resisted himself according to the original method, I am afraid that he really couldn't take this Gao Lan.

"Yes, it's Gao Yan."

At this time, Zhou Yu no longer continued to sell Guanzi, but said very seriously.

"Gao Ran's ability is also understood, at least he is also a talent for guarding a county. If it is ordinary, it is naturally impossible to move it. But now that Yuan's army has been newly defeated, Gao Ran himself is still injured, and he is trapped in this city, isn't it a good opportunity? ”

"Even if a loyal person encounters this, he will only die, even if we have the heart, then the high view may not be intentional."

Wei Tao naturally wanted to recruit Gao Ran, but he also understood that if he was really persecuted, he was afraid that someone like Gao Ran would really fight with him.

"General, will someone come to our aid in this matter?"

Xun You also smiled, but Wei Tao was slightly stunned, this kind of strategy, Wei Tao is not as good as Zhou Yu and Xun You after all.

"Who is Gongda talking about?"

"Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang."

Xun You smiled slightly, and explained directly to Wei Tao.

"Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang suffered a big defeat at this time, and their faces were greatly damaged, with the habits of the Yuan family. Naturally, it is impossible to take the responsibility on oneself. If it is said that the trial is wrong. But that trial has always supported Yuan Shang. Wouldn't this move be a shot at oneself in the foot? As for the others. Such as Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, even if it is their reason, someone must believe it. In this way, the high view is a very suitable target. ”

"The lord doesn't know that this Gao Ran is indeed related to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao values it, and he has always been neutral in supporting Yuan Shao's two sons. can't be regarded as Yuan Shang's own person. ”

Zhou Yu also took over the conversation and explained to Wei Tao.

"What's more, this time their victory is about coming together from both sides. But after reaching the end, Gao Ran had been unable to shrink except for a battle before the arrival of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang. Doesn't that give them an excuse? ”

The reason why Gao Ran didn't fight anymore is that the people in the tent understand.

First, Gao Ran was seriously injured and did not recover, and secondly, Wei Tao and Yuan Jun only fought twice, and the battle was not very long.

"It seems that this Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are really 'good people'!"

Thinking of the grain and grass that was transported to the camp not long ago, which was enough to support 20,000 troops to eat for a month, and then thinking about what Zhou Yu had just said, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh slightly.

The two brothers, 'good guys' Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, managed to collect the defeated army one by one without the pursuit of the state army, and there were less than 20,000 people at all.

After a battle, half of the soldiers were gone, and the two of them asked themselves about the wealth of Jizhou. At this time, it is also a bit of a wax.

However, once such a thing spreads, it is not only a trial. Even Guo Tu is afraid that he will be reprimanded by Yuan Shao, and someone must take responsibility.

As a result, Gao Ran became the goal.

Of course, according to the idea of judging and Guo Tu, Gao Ran is Yuan Shao's confidant after all, and he is related to Yuan Shao, even if he is reprimanded by Yuan Shao for a while, it is not a big deal, as long as he helps him exonerate him at that time, he will be able to get a name to atone for his crimes.

At that time, there will naturally be nothing at all, and the trial and Guo Tu will think so.

As soon as Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were told by the two, they also found that except for Gao Ran, it was impossible for anyone else to take on this responsibility, and when the two of them said this, they naturally felt that there was nothing but some sorry for Gao Ran.

It's a big deal that in the future, it's good to pay another one with Gao Ran.

This is what Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang think.

Of course, this is the idea of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, but when the news reaches Changshan County, Gao Ran will not think so.

What does that mean?

This is to blame yourself!

Gao Ran, who had not recovered from his serious injuries, only felt dizzy and weak when he received the news.

Originally, when Gao Ran learned that Yuan's reinforcements had been retreated by Wei Tao, although he was disheartened, what he thought was that he and Changshan City would live and die together, and he would be able to spend Wei Tao for a day.

But now that he got such news, Gao Ran's heart was really cold.

"Report! My lord, there is a man surnamed Wei outside, who asks to see him. ”

Just when Gao Ran was also smiling bitterly, the guard outside the door came in and said.

"Originally, we said that the general still wants to rest, but he said that he is from the Hedong Wei family, and he is related to the general, so we came in to communicate, does the general want to see him?"

"Hedong Wei family? How could they ......"

Gao Ran was slightly stunned, and then understood in his heart, and after being silent for a while, he finally spoke.

"Let them in."

Soon there were two people who came in, one young man Gao Ran knew each other, but the other Gao Ran had never seen him.

"Under the pastoral tent of Xia Jizhou, Zhuge Jin has seen General Gao."

But what Gao Ran didn't expect was that before he could speak, the man he hadn't seen just stepped forward and spoke.

"Zhuge Jin?"

Gao Ran didn't expect Wei Tao to be so bold and dare to send someone to see him directly?

"You're not afraid that I'll order someone to drag you down and behead you?"

"The two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed. What's more, why didn't General Gao ask why Jin came? ”

Zhuge Jin was not in a hurry, and he said with a smile as soon as he arched his hand slightly.

At this time, the people of the Wei family directly retreated.

In fact, Wei Tao didn't expect that the Wei family in Hedong would be related to Gao Lan, and Wei Zhongdao, the son of the Wei family, married Miss Gao.

It's just that now that Wei Zhongdao is dead, the relationship with the Gao family has been broken. But this time, it was the people of the Hedong Wei family who took the initiative to say that they could lead people to see Gao Lan.

At that time, Zhuge Jin volunteered.

"Why? When it comes to persuade a family to surrender. Zhuge Jin. You deceive me so much. When you want to try a certain sword, is it not good to sharpen? ”

Gao Ran actually heard that it was someone from the Wei family in Hedong who arrived, and he already had a guess in his heart, but he didn't expect that it was Wei Tao's subordinate ministers who really came to persuade him to surrender.

"Huh...... I have come to save the general's life. ”

Of course, Zhuge Jin wanted to persuade Gao Ran, but Zhuge Jin was able to be frightened when he was so angry, and after listening to Gao Ran's words, he smiled and said.

"The general's current situation must also be self-aware. Now the responsibility for the defeat of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang is all attributed to the general's failure to close the siege in time, or to be precise, because the general did not listen to the military order and did not besiege on both sides according to the plan, and the last thing was that the Yuan army was defeated by our army. So. Does the general admit it? ”

"Nonsense!"

The anger that was barely suppressed was suddenly provoked by Zhuge Jin, even Gao Ran was calm, but at this time, he couldn't help but scold.

"When did they send me letters?"

"Huh...... is the so-called inseparable, who does the general think Yuan Benchu will believe? ”

Zhuge Jin smiled again, and suddenly made Gao Ran speechless, no one needs to answer this, Gao Ran himself has the answer.

Even if he is related to Yuan Shao, Gao Ran doesn't think that Yuan Shao will help himself without helping his son, so he can only be silent.

It is precisely because of being able to see this that Gao Ran was a fire before.

"Before, General Gao said that I was here to persuade the general to surrender. Actually, it's not wrong. My lord admired the general very much, and once said: If you follow the law of Gao Yuanbo. The state army can only be discouraged! ”

At this moment, Zhuge Jin smiled slightly, and then admitted his intention, and suddenly attracted Gao Lan, who was in a rather low mood and had no more thoughts.

"I don't know what Yuan's original ambition was? However, the lord of my family has great ambitions, and he is willing to settle the trouble with the power of one person. However, the border is difficult to peace, just like the Huns, even if it is difficult to stop with the strength of one person, it must gather the heroes of the world. Now that the big thing is coming, it is necessary for a talent like the general to help, even if the general does not think about himself, does he not want to be worried about the big man? ”

Hearing Zhuge Jin's words, Gao Ran was silent for a moment, and almost all of these words were in his heart.

Like Gao Ran, how could he not want to make some achievements and leave a name in history, just in a few words, Gao Ran found that he was already moved by Zhuge Jin.

If Gao Ran was a free person in the wilderness at this time, maybe he was really tempted to join Wei Tao.

But now Gao Ran is a subordinate of Yuan Shao.

"Alas......"

After a long silence, Gao Ran finally let out a long sigh.

"Although Qing bears me, I can't bear Qing. What's more, what Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang did at that time had little to do with the lord. Whatever he has come recently, I have never seen him. Sir, I went back to tell General Wei, but with me on the day, I will guard this city for a day. If General Wei insists on breaking the city, I will not show mercy to my subordinates, and please don't ask General Wei to show mercy to his subordinates. ”

Rao is Zhuge Jin has an extraordinary heart, and when he heard Gao Ran's words, he had to admire: What a Gao Yuanbo, it is really extraordinary!

"General Gao's righteousness, Ziyu admires. But since Ziyu is here, how about the general who can listen to my lord's invitation? ”

However, although he admired Gao Ran's loyalty in his heart, since Zhuge Jin had received the order to persuade Gao Ran to come, how could he leave so easily, and said with a smile at the moment.

Rao is Gao Ran has already made up his mind in his heart, and he can't help but move at this time, he wants to hear how Wei Tao is going to treat himself, if it is based on some high-ranking official, then Gao Ran really has no interest.

After a slight silence, Gao Ran nodded lightly, which was considered acquiescence.

Seeing this, Zhuge Jin immediately smiled confidently.

This Gao Lan is finally starting to take the bait! (To be continued......)
