Chapter 455: The Mission of Chu State Returning with a Full Reward
"Forty thousand slaves?!" Fei Shi looked at Gongsun Gong in disbelief, "Does Marquis Yan really mean what he said?"
Gongsun Gong waved his hand and said boldly, "It's hard to chase after a man's words! What's more, I'm already a Marquis of Yan?"
Fei Shi was a little excited. He bowed his hands deeply and said, "The foreign ministers will definitely report the kindness of Yan to Chu when they return. The diplomatic relations between Chu and Yan will definitely get better and better!"
Gongsun Gong laughed and said, "Sir, you are so polite! I can also promise you that I can sell 30,000 horses to Chu State every year, and they will all be good horses that have not been castrated!"

"Thank you Marquis Yan!"
Fei Shi bowed deeply again, and after doing so, he asked with some confusion, "I'm a little curious, why is Marquis Yan willing to do this... to show his love to me, Da Chu, so much?"
Gongsun Gong looked into the distance and his eyes became deep, "Sir, what do you think is the cause of this rebellion in the old land of Goguryeo?"
Fei Shi said without hesitation, "Because the first general passed away just now, the barbarians thought they had an opportunity."
Gongsun Gong nodded and said, "This is just one of them. The most important thing is that Liaodong is too bitter and cold and lacks literati. The territory captured by my Gongsun family cannot be effectively ruled."
"Officials in some places were even transferred from the army. The Gongsun family, starting from my father, has been setting up schools in Liaodong, but the scholars who have completed their studies cannot stand the bitter cold in Liaodong. Liaodong cannot retain talents.
"
Hearing this, Fei Shi somewhat understood what Gongsun Gong meant. He thought to himself that he was worthy of being a prince. Even if he was mediocre, he at least had a vision that ordinary people could not match.
Gongsun Gong continued, "Sir, the Chu State has been on good terms with my Gongsun family since Cao Cao went south. To this day, your country helps our Yan State defeat its enemies. Gu is also willing to trade with the Chu State and even sends envoys to Da Chu.
, the two countries communicate with each other!"
Fei Shi thought for a while, then raised his hands and said, "Marquis Yan wants me, the scholars of Chu State, to come and help you govern Liaodong?"
Gongsun Gong smiled and shook his head and said, "Sir, you think too much. Gu Bu deceives you. I don't trust the scholars of Chu State to help Gu govern the place. I'm afraid the scholars of Chu State are not willing to come to the bitter cold land of Yan State."

Fei Shi asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
"I want Da Chu to send a teacher! Help my Gongsun family build a school and cultivate talents! I will recruit you with a lot of money to prevent the loss of talents again!"
Now, it was Fei Shi's turn to be shocked. Gongsun Gong might be a little worse than his eldest brother and father, but he wasn't much worse.
"Marquis Yan, no foreign minister can make the decision on this matter. I will go back and report it to my king, and ask him to make a decision."
Gongsun Gong turned to look at Fei Shi, grinned and patted Fei Shi on the shoulder, "I can trust you sir, and I can trust the King of Chu. I leave everything to you, sir."
"The foreign minister must do his best!"
While the two were talking, Wei Yan came up to Gongsun Gong and said, "Marquis Yan, can I choose a horse to try riding?"
Gongsun Gong glanced at Wei Yan and said, "The general is in the south of the Yangtze River and is also proficient in riding skills?"
After hearing this, Wei Yan ignored Gongsun Gong's identity and said with an unconvinced face, "Marquis Yan, don't underestimate the southerners. Although I live in the south of the Yangtze River, I have also been on the battlefield, with horses flying across the sky and arrows falling."
, it is not difficult to capture the enemy general’s head in the midst of thousands of troops!”
Gongsun Gong chuckled, "I have heard about the general's bravery for a long time, but I still don't believe that the southerners can beat the northerners in riding skills."

"Then please invite Marquis Yan to compete with me!"
"Commander, please don't make mistakes!" Fei Shi hurriedly scolded him when he saw this, and then raised his hands to Gongsun Gong and said, "Marquis Yan, please forgive me, but our generals of the Chu State are all men of fiery nature. The commander was in a hurry and clashed.
Marquis Yan, please don’t take it to heart."
Gongsun Gong waved his hand and said, "General Wei's true temperament, I admire you very much. Sir, don't worry, Gu is not so stingy. It just so happens that I want to see what the Chu State General is capable of!"
"Someone, drive that dark cloud horse over here!"
After that, Gongsun Gong looked at Wei Yan and said, "General Wei, Gu will bet with you. If you win, Gu will give you the best war horse in Liaodong! If you lose, stay in Liaodong and help Gu Kai."
How about expanding the territory?"
"The article must not be too long..."
"good!"
Gongsun Gong nodded with satisfaction, but Fei Shi became anxious, and once again raised his hand to Gongsun Gong and said, "Marquis Yan, Chang Wen is our general of Da Chu. Whether he stays in Liaodong or not is not his own decision.
"
"In our territory of Dachu, my king is supremely majestic. Regarding Wei Yan's appointment and freedom, as well as his life and death, only my king can decide!"
Fei Shi was really angry. Wei Yan, a brainless guy, you really agreed when someone provoked you. You didn't even consider anything else just for the sake of a bet!

What made him even more angry was that Gongsun Gong dared to openly poach the Chu State!
Is he drifting off or is Liu Cong unable to hold the knife?
Wei Yan also realized something was wrong at this moment, but still said stubbornly, "Don't worry, Mr. Fei, I will definitely win!"
"Hahaha……"
"Okay! I just like General Wei's straightforwardness!"
"Herod!"
A roar sounded like a dragon's roar, and a black war horse galloped down from the top of the mountain, followed by a huge herd of horses!
This horse is half a head taller than the other horses. When it runs, the tendon meat all over its body makes it look extremely strong!
Wei Yan's eyes widened when he saw it. Gongsun Gong pointed at the black horse and said, "That's Wuyunju. He's only four years old this year. He's just grown up. In terms of physical strength, endurance, and speed, he is the king of horses!"
"Gu has wanted to try riding it many times, but no one in Liaodong can tame it. If the general can defeat Gu! I will give this horse to the general!"

After a while, the soldiers brought two war horses, and Wei Yan and Gongsun Gong got on the horses almost at the same time.
"General Wei, we are targeting the branches on the mountain opposite. Whoever gets the branches back first wins!"
"good!"
"Ha..." Wei Yan lost his martial ethics. As soon as Gongsun Gong finished speaking, he galloped out on his horse!
When Gongsun Gong saw this, he hurriedly chased him out. It must be said that Gongsun Gong's riding skills were indeed excellent. His body was bent tightly on the horse's back.
I don’t know if it was because of the war horses, or because Gongsun Gong’s riding skills were really good. It didn’t take long for him to almost catch up with Wei Yan!
"call out!"
"Herod!"
Gongsun Gong took off his bow and arrow and shot it through the leg of Wei Yan's horse!
"Hateful! As a prince, you are so ignorant of martial ethics!" Fei Shi, who was watching from a distance, stamped his feet in anger.

After Wei Yan fell from his horse, he quickly straightened up and looked at Gongsun Gong with eyes that gradually became sharp!
There was no bow and arrow on his horse. After looking around, Wei Yan picked up a long piece of wood as thick as a forearm and threw it hard!
Gongsun Gong turned his head but did not dodge, and his long hair was scattered after being hit. Wei Yan took advantage of Gongsun Gong's opportunity to slow down his horse, jumped on Gongsun Gong's horse, and then pulled Gongsun Gong off the horse.
