Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 714 Zhang Sui vs Gongsun Gong: Genius is just the threshold to see me
Zhang Sui was still standing at the rear of the army, standing on the shoulders of two of his personal soldiers and watching the scene.

Hearing the roar coming from the other side of the moat, Zhang Sui got off the shoulders of his two bodyguards, jumped on his own horse, and called Liu Ye to follow him forward.

Liu Ye pointed at himself and said, "My Lord, I don't need to go up, right?"

Zhang Sui smiled and said, "You are the one commanding the battle this time, I am just a courtesy."

"It's you who will face off against Gongsun Gong later."

"You have to make the other party lose clearly."

"The one he lost to wasn't me, the great general, but you, Liu Ye."

"He, Gongsun Gong, is a genius."

"Aren't you Liu Ye?"

"In my eyes, you, Liu Ziyang, are a genius among geniuses!"

Yanshi rode her horse beside Zhang Sui.

After hearing what Zhang Sui said, Yanshi looked at Liu Ye again.

Seeing Liu Ye's red eyes, Yan Shi was secretly puzzled.

what's the situation?
She had also seen her ex-husband, Louban Chanyu, encouraging his soldiers. The soldiers basically had no reaction, but they appeared excited on the surface, and it was obvious at a glance that they were pretentious.

As for Liu Ye, Zhang Sui only gave him a few words of encouragement, so why did he react so strongly?
After hearing what Zhang Sui said, Liu Ye raised his head, forced back the tears that were about to roll down, and then spurred his horse to catch up with Zhang Sui.

Zhang Sui and Liu Ye, surrounded by hundreds of personal soldiers, walked straight through the army, went directly to the front of the army, and came to a thunder chariot in the middle.

Gongsun Gong also rode his horse forward a few steps, putting some distance between himself and his personal guards and Goguryeo soldiers behind him.

Zhang Sui raised his hand.

Hundreds of soldiers behind him immediately pulled the reins.

Zhang Sui rode forward alone.

Liu Ye, Zhao Qin, Yan Shi and Zhang Sui kept a distance of ten steps.

As Zhang Sui stopped, Liu Ye, Zhao Qin and Yan Shi also stopped.

Zhang Sui looked at Gongsun Gong, nodded and said with a smile: "I have heard of your reputation as a genius. You are also quite handsome, elegant, and extraordinary. You are worthy of the title of the son of the Liaodong County Magistrate."

Gongsun Gong also looked at Zhang Sui.

His brows furrowed.

Is this the general?

He looks quite ordinary, like an ordinary person.

He had heard rumors about General Zhang Sui's bravery.

Originally he thought that Zhang Sui should be a broad, fat, and strong general like an ox.

But I didn't expect it to be like this.

Let him be a little disappointed.

Gongsun Gong slowly raised the spear in his hand and said to Zhang Sui: "General, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals."

"Before the war begins, let's have a sparring match."

"It is said that the general is brave and good at fighting, and no one can stop him."

"Gongsun Gong is here and would like to learn from you."

Zhang Sui smiled and refused directly in front of Gongsun Gong's surprised eyes: "I won't fight with you."

It’s not that he doesn’t want to.

But he is not the protagonist today.

Zhang Sui always remembered what Tian Feng had said to him: Those in higher positions should not compete for credit with those in lower positions.

He is the superior.

Although Liu Ye was the commander-in-chief, he was a subordinate.

Today is Liu Ye's chance to become famous, and he will not snatch the limelight from Liu Ye.

Just as Gongsun Gong was about to question him, Zhang Sui smiled and called Liu Ye behind him to come forward and said to Gongsun Gong: "General Gongsun, your opponent is not me, but him."

"Liu Ye, one of my military advisors."

"Now he is the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong expedition."

"Although General Gongsun is young, he is a rare genius."

"but--"

Zhang Sui smiled and pointed at himself and said, "I am a vassal and a monarch."

"I am a dignified prince and monarch. Why should I put aside my dignity and fight against a general like you?"

"You are indeed a genius."

"But I have countless geniuses under my command."

"The so-called genius is just the most basic threshold to meet me."

"I just want you to understand that the one you defeated was not me, but the genius under my command."

After saying this, Zhang Sui rode his horse back.

Gongsun Gong watched Zhang Sui leave, veins on his forehead throbbing. How rude!

Extremely rampant!

I went to the appointment in person, but he, a great general, dared to say that I was not worthy to fight with him!
Just as he was about to roar in anger, Liu Ye said, "General Gongsun, there is no need to be angry. Everything on the battlefield will be decided by the outcome."

Pointing to the fifty Thunderbolt Chariots behind him, Liu Ye raised his chin and said, "This is the Thunderbolt Chariot, which I invented myself. It is easy to destroy the city wall."

"How dare a tiny country like Liaodong confront my Hebei imperial court?"

"It's a shame."

"Today's battle will show you how powerful the Hebei court is."

"If you know what's good for you, dismount and surrender immediately."

"otherwise--"

Liu Ye looked up at the soldiers on the city wall and sneered, "You will all be reduced to ashes!"

Behind Gongsun Gong, thousands of Goguryeo soldiers roared and looked ready to rush forward to fight.

Gongsun Gong quickly raised the spear in his hand and signaled them to calm down.

Fighting alone, the Liaodong soldiers were never afraid of the Donghu people.

However, in large-scale battles, Liaodong soldiers were often defeated.

Today, Liaodong’s greatest advantage lies in its city walls.

Facing the general's troops of almost equal strength, fighting in a positional manner would be a suicidal act. Gongsun Gong would never be so foolish as to make such a mistake.

What he has to do today is to use the city wall to kill off a wave of enemy troops, and then take advantage of the enemy's retreat to rush out of the city and kill the enemy army with a "crushing defeat"!
Liu Ye looked at the roaring Goguryeo soldiers without any expression, and turned his horse around and left.

Zhang Sui took Yanshi, Zhao Qin and his personal soldiers and retreated to the rear of the army.

Gongsun Gong gritted his teeth as he watched Zhang Sui and Liu Ye leave.

It is true that “if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door”!
The general was extremely arrogant.

The generals under his command are also arrogant!
Gongsun Gong clenched the spear so tightly that his fingertips turned white.

In today's battle, we will let them appreciate the elegance of our Liaodong soldiers.

Now that the Han Dynasty is in name only, it is time for Liaodong to rise up.

The general still looks down on Liaodong!
Then, let him and his soldiers pay the price of blood for the rest of their lives to regret their arrogance today!
Gongsun Gong rode back to the city and immediately ordered the defense to begin.

Inside the city and beneath the city walls, people started lighting boilers.

All kinds of excrement were dumped into it.

Countless stones were carried up to the city wall.

All the houses near the city wall were demolished, and stones and wooden beams were moved to the city wall.

The soldiers on the city wall took up their defensive positions.

The crossbows have been loaded with arrows and are aimed at the city.

Time passed bit by bit.

Gongsun Gong stood on the city gate tower, looking up at the cold sun above his head.

When the sun was directly overhead, Gongsun Gong turned to look at the people around him and said, "Beat the drums! Prepare for battle!"

The war drums on the city wall suddenly resounded throughout the entire Changli city.

Gongsun Gong walked down the city gate tower, passed by the soldiers defending the city wall one by one, and said sternly: "Today's battle is an opportunity for Liaodong to break the Central Plains myth, advance westward to Yecheng, and compete with the heroes."

"If we defeat the enemy, we can become a new force."

"We are hiding in Liaodong, we don't have enough food to eat, our wives and children are suffering, and our parents are not safe."

“Before, there was no choice.”

"Now that the opportunity is right before our eyes, who wouldn't fight to the death?"

“Think of the fertile land of the Central Plains.”

"Think about the beautiful and delicate women in Hebei."

"Think about your parents, wife and children eating delicious rice."

"Think of the meat you eat and the wine you drink."

"The soldiers from Liaodong."

"No matter who you were in the past."

"From now on, each of you must fight for your family and for yourself."

“The time to achieve success is now.”

“The opportunity to achieve success is now!”

“The opportunity to achieve success is now!”

As Gongsun Gong shouted three times at the top of his lungs, all the Liaodong soldiers and civilians on the Changli city wall screamed.

They waved their weapons and looked at the enemy outside the city, their eyes were green and their faces were ferocious.

They wait for the enemy to capture the city, and they will rush forward immediately, tear the enemy's head apart, smash the enemy's spine, and return with rich results and glory!
