At this time, Dieshi Pass was already in a state of preparation for war, and long troops with halberds could be seen everywhere, rushing towards the city pass.
Spring is coming soon, and the wars that have subsided all winter will begin to burn again.
A man who looked like a school lieutenant and a dozen or so patrolling figures were walking back and forth along the gate tower closed by stacked stones. After only two rounds, the school lieutenant suddenly spotted a man who looked like a child, carrying his body on his back.
Standing alone in the cold wind.
"Hey, where did you come from? Go back and find your mother!" Before the captain could say anything, the distant second uncle of the team was already cursing.
For a moment, he was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked. Last time, a newly recruited soldier yelled like this and was thrown directly from the tower by the guards of the King of Yan.
In the cold wind, Gongsunzu turned around angrily. But after hesitating for a while, he finally waved his hand and asked the school captain to lead the people away.
"My lord is benevolent and righteous." In the darkness of the night, the aide uncle walked over slowly, leaning on his wooden stick.
"Mr. Uncle, I'm sorry."
"My lord, spring is about to begin. Have you not decided what I told you before?" Taishu sighed and stopped.
"I thought about it and decided not to move at Fengxue Pass for the time being."
"The king of Yuzhou is powerful. If it were not for the help of foreign aid, earlier... my lord would have been defeated."
Gongsunzu was silent for a while, "Everyone says that my Gongsunzu poisoned tigers and ate seeds, and stabbed the king of Yuzhou in the back, making him the greatest traitor in the world. My Gongsunzu has been in charge of Yanzhou since he was fourteen years old, and now he has
, it has been nearly forty years. During my term of office, my military strength was weak and I had to adopt a soft policy. But even so, the Rouran people have never set foot in Yanzhou."
"Mr. Taishu now...has asked me to completely open the Fengxueguan. How can I live up to these more than forty years of guarding the border?"
"Without reinforcements, my lord's dominance will be in vain."
"I initially stabbed the King of Yuzhou in the back. The biggest reason was that the three counties of Yanzhou did not need to be the horse breeding land of the King of Yuzhou, and the 190,000 households in Yanzhou did not need to be used as Yuzhou.
The king's groom."
"You finally have the desire to dominate."
Gongsunzu smiled faintly, "I am a dwarf, but I am also a hero who can defeat the enemy in troubled times. If I can conquer these thousands of miles of misty mountains and rivers, of course it would be the best."
The uncle looked at the wooden stick and let out a deep sigh.
"If my lord has a hundred thousand archers and cavalry under his command, and with my assistance, my lord's ambition will definitely have the capital to conquer the Central Plains. When the time comes, not to mention the king of Yuzhou, even the pseudo-emperor, Xu Buyi of Jiangnan, will
They will all be defeated by the lord's military power."
"I'm joking. I heard that when you were teaching Qi'er recently, you taught him a lot of things that he shouldn't have taught."
"My lord, although Gongsun Qi is still young, he has great wisdom and can be regarded as both civilized and military-"
"Mr. Taishu." Gongsun Zu raised his hand to interrupt, "I know my own son best. I once had three sons, and among them, Gongsun Qi is the most mediocre."
"Then, my lord, when you went to the inner city earlier, why did you let the two eldest sons serve as protons?"
Gongsun Zu was silent for a while and avoided answering.
"Mr. Taishu, don't mention the matter of opening the Fengxue Pass. Although I am a dwarf, I am also afraid that in the bamboo books of future generations, I will be written down as a fool in the world who lured enemies into the pass. No matter what happens in the Central Plains,
Chaos is also a matter in the Central Plains, but we should forget about it by borrowing foreign armies."
"I also have plans to dispatch the 30,000 bows and cavalry I borrowed earlier. I will send them away soon."
The uncle sighed and raised his head, staring at the moonlight in the distance.
"If this is the case, the Gongsun family may end here."
"The extinction of the Gongsun family is a disaster that will lead to success and failure. But what I fear most is that I will inadvertently end the lineage of the Central Plains!"
Gongsunzu turned around and said, "That's what you said. If you are still willing to help me, Mr. Gongsunzu will always treat you as a scholar of the country. If you don't want to do it, I will send you a thousand taels of money to send you away."
"My Gongsun Ancestor is a dwarf, but don't forget that my Gongsun family has been guarding Yanzhou for generations. Just to resist the foreigners, seventeen of our ancestors, fathers and brothers died under the scimitars of the foreigners."
"If I continue to persist in my stubbornness and go to Huangquan in the future and see my old father, he will definitely be sad, angry and ashamed."
Uncle Wang still sighed.
"That's it. Lord, please forgive me for not being able to help you."
"Farewell sir."
Gongsunzu walked forward silently, but suddenly he heard Taishu Wang behind him let out a faint laugh. Only when he raised his head did Gongsunzu realize that at some point, more than a thousand people had rushed into the city tower.
Human soldiers.
"My lord, why don't you move to the secluded courtyard of the palace first? When something big comes to pass, I hope that a certain uncle will tie himself up and plead guilty."
"What do you mean?" Gongsun Zu frowned.
"Gongsun Qi will take over the throne of King Yan."
Gongsunzu paused and smiled sadly, "I was thinking before that if I believed you sir, would it be considered as luring the wolf into the house? Now it seems that it is indeed a no-no. But don't forget, my Gongsunzu is the leader of the Hebei League. You
Even if you take me, the remaining ones are the King of Yizhou, the King of Youzhou, and the King of Yezhou——"
"When my lord decided, they were already dead." The uncle looked back, and under the moonlight, there was a hint of ferocity.
"Tell my lord again that this military order was personally issued by your son, grandson Qi."
Gongsunzu trembled and closed his eyes.
"Tiger Poison Food Seed, you should have expected this day."
"Protect my lord!" In the darkness, the guards of the Gongsun family who were hiding in the darkness rushed out when they saw something was wrong. They all drew out their long knives and guarded Gongsun Zu.
Although the captain of the new army patrolling earlier did not know what happened, his blood surged, and with the thought of protecting the Lord, he also led more than ten people and rushed over with his sword drawn.
"kill!"
Before the patrolling army of more than ten people could rush forward, they were shot into hedgehogs by a wave of bows and arrows, and they all fell into a pool of blood.
The night was very cold, and Gongsun Zu felt that his heart felt even colder.
He raised his head and looked at his secret guards, who continued to fall one after another until he was the only one left, standing alone in the night.
"Gongsun Qi!"
"Gongsun Qi——"
…
Under the same night, a young man with a golden crown and a python robe stood alone on another tower.
Seeing his dwarf father being forced into a corner, he was a little frightened. But suddenly, he turned his head and looked at the scenery outside Dieshi Pass. His whole body trembled, and there was a strong feeling on his face.
Strong expectations.
"Father, your son will do what you don't want to do. This country of thousands of miles will definitely have the surname Gongsun again one day!"
"War is imminent. God bless my Gongsun family and create eternal hegemony!"
