seventy-two power grab

,.

Outside Chenggao County, the Guo army camp.

The sharp deterioration caused the morale of the Guo army to be depressed and panic. Dong Sheng, an old minister of the three dynasties who were fifty years old, was even more worried. He forgot to eat and sleep, but was unable to turn the situation around.

Since the battle with Wei Chou, the Guo army has been defeated in succession, and the two generals Cai Yun and Kong Mi have successively lost more than 20,000 people. What is even more unexpected is that even the king Ji Shubi, who was in charge of the army, was taken hostage by Fang Li to Hanoi, which left the Guo State without a leader and a mess.

"This Sun Zhong is really a waste. It's okay if the lord is young and energetic. He is in his fifties, but he doesn't know how to stop the lord?"

Dong Sheng was so anxious that he was wandering around in the coach's tent every day, like an ant on a hot pan, cursing at Xiang Bang Sun Zhong from time to time.

What made Dong Sheng even more worried was that Wei Chou Formation killed Kong Mi and then rushed to the west, pointing his sword to Hanoi. If he broke through the city, Ji Shubi would definitely become a prisoner of Jin like Ji Chan.

After receiving the information, Dong Sheng was about to send troops to reinforce Hanoi, but he was afraid of being ambushed and losing his troops. He thought about it and did not dare to send troops blindly. Anyway, Ji Shubi was already controlled by Fang Li, so it would be no different to fall into Jin State. It would be better to be stable and send a scout to spy on it first.

At dawn, the scout returned quickly and reported to Dong Sheng that Fang Li set up an ambush outside the city of Henei to severely damage Wei Chou. Nearly 20,000 Jin troops lost three-quarters. Even the Jin State's No. 1 strong general Wei Chou was seriously injured and fought to the death before breaking through the siege.

"It seems that it is not an accident that the Jin army suffered a great loss in Louzhai. When did the Yu army become so powerful?"

Dong Shengwen was surprised and remembered that Yu Guo was only ten years younger than him, Baili Si was considered a general. Everyone else was similar to Fan Tong and Cao Bao in his country. When did he become so powerful?

"Wei Chou killed Cai Yun with one knife. Who can hurt him?"

Dong Shengyue was surprised, and his heart was mixed and he felt quite uncomfortable.

The Jin army defeated the Guo army terrible, and the Yu army killed the Jin army and abandoned the armor. Does this mean that the Guo army is not the right one? This made the General of the Guo State, who always regarded the Yu State as his friend, unacceptable.

Unable to contact the lord, Dong Sheng had to hold his troops and send an envoy back to Xingyang to seek opinions from all the civil and military officials of the court. Should we surround Henei and force Fang Li to hand over Duke Guo, or support Ji Shubi's younger brother Ji Hu to succeed to the throne?

On the evening of the day, Dong Sheng had just returned to the commander's tent after inspecting the military camp. The scouts who were patrolling around him came to report: "Report to the general... Three thousand soldiers of Yu Kingdom came outside the camp gate, saying that they were ordered by the lord to convey the edict to you."

"How dare the people of Yu come to the door with their own initiative?"

Dong Sheng slapped the table and summoned his confidant general to ignite five thousand soldiers and horses out of the camp to meet Yu Jun.

The two armies soon met on a narrow road, and Dong Shengyuan shouted: "Is this Fang Li who came? Stop me to advance!"

Zhang Liao rode his horse forward and bowed his fists: "Bold Dong Sheng, General Fang is the general of Guo State whom Duke Guo personally gave him the title. How can you call him the name directly? You are also in your fifties, how can you be so rude?"

Dong Sheng snorted coldly: "Hmph... It turns out that Fang Li is a rat with a hidden head and a tail exposed. He sent a few minions to die? You detained my lord. Isn't it his intention to enthrone Fang Li as a general?"

As he said that, he turned his head and ordered: "Come, surrounded all the Yu army, and don't let each of them go. If Fang Li doesn't release his lord, I will kill one Yu countryman a day!"

"What a arrogant tone!"

Zhao Yun shouted and urged the horse to move forward, and rushed towards Dong Sheng, who was more than ten feet apart like an arrow, and regarded the five thousand soldiers and horses on the opposite side as nothing.

Dong Sheng relied on his trusted guards around him and fought with swords. He was determined to slash the generals of Yu State who rushed over on the horse, shocking the enemy: "I have been galloping on the battlefield for many years, how dare the rats die?"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun had already rushed to Dong Shengma, and his spear was shaken and he stabbed Dong Sheng in front of him with a cold light.

Before Dong Sheng could react, the tip of the gun had already pressed against his throat. If it was one more minute, it would pierce into the flesh. It was very accurate.

"You...you, what do you want to do?"

Dong Sheng was shocked. Before he could see clearly, why did the tip of the gun stab in front of him? If the other party deliberately wanted to kill him, he would be very cold at this moment!

Zhao Yun snorted coldly: "If you don't do anything, please come and convey the edict of Duke Guo."

Zhang Liao immediately launched the edict stamped with the seal of Duke Guo State and read it: "General Dong Sheng was ordered to fight Jin, but he was defeated repeatedly, and lost his troops and generals, delayed the war and endangered the country. The lord was trapped by the Jin army and was also on the wall. He did not send a soldier or a soldier, which made me deeply disappointed and was not worthy of being the commander of the country. Therefore, he decided to remove General Dong Sheng from his position, and drove him back to Xingyang, handed over the tiger fu to Zhang Liao, commanded the three armies, and united the Yu army to carry the Jin bandits and defend the country!"

After reading, Zhang Liao signaled the general behind Dong Sheng to come forward to receive the edict: "You can see that this is an edict written by Duke Guo himself, and it has been stamped with Duke Guo's seal. Whoever dares to resist the edict is a rebellion!"

Guo State took the school and looked at it for a moment. He realized that it was indeed Ji Shubi's handwriting. For a moment, he was silent and didn't know what to do?

After a long time, Dong Sheng sighed: "Forget it, forgot, this Fang Li can defeat the Jin army in Louzhai and Henoi, which means he has real information. I will hand over the military power! Our Guo State and Yu State are allies for many years. As long as we can lead you to defeat the Jin army, it will be much better than our loss of troops and generals and death under the Jin army!"

"This is the heartfelt word!" Zhao Yun put away his spear and expressed his approval of Dong Sheng's words, "At present, we, Guo and Yu, should work together to resist the Jin army without distinguishing each other."

With Dong Sheng's orders, the depressed generals of Guo Army stopped resisting and clasped their fists together and said, "We are willing to obey General Zhang's orders!"

Zhang Liao hurriedly returned the greeting: "You are so serious, and you will need to work together to fight against Jin in the future."

At that time, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun led three thousand soldiers of the Yu Kingdom into the Guo army camp, summoned the side generals and the captain to go to the commander's tent to discuss the next combat plan, and handed over the military power with Dong Sheng in public, and took over the tiger talisman symbolizing the commander's position.

"I am old and have been defeated repeatedly, and have lost troops and generals. I am ashamed of my lord, so I will return to Xingyang to take care of my old age!"

Dong Sheng said goodbye to Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun overnight, and brought a hundred confidants on the journey back to Xingyang. On the surface, he claimed to be ashamed, but in fact he was to return to Xingyang to discuss countermeasures with all the civil and military officials of the Guo State. Should we establish another monarch? We cannot let Fang Li take his lord to order the entire Guo State?

Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun did not stop him, and allowed Dong Sheng to leave. They sent envoys to Hanoi to report the good news to Fang Li. They had successfully taken over the military power and controlled the 38,000 Guo troops, waiting for the general to make the next strategic decision.

Fang Li was overjoyed after receiving the news and cheered: "Haha... he has successfully controlled the Guo State army and is getting closer and closer to the merger of the Guo and Yu states. It is no longer a luxury to fight for dominance in the world in the future!"
