Chapter 1196 Liaodong! Enter Xiangping City

"I don't know what's important to summon the Lord Inspector?"

Now Yan Rou is a little afraid of seeing Bai Xiaowen.

"General Yan, you have been in Youzhou for many years, so you should know the local situation. How is the situation in Liaodong?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Yan Rou couldn't figure out Bai Xiaowen's intention for a while, so she said honestly:

"My lord, there are four counties in Liaodong, namely Liaodong, Lelang, Daifang, and Xuantu. The four counties are all occupied by Liaodong Marquis Gongsundu. After the general defeated Gongsun Zan, Gongsundu sent envoys to congratulate him. Surrender to the general."

Bai Xiaowen nodded, and then asked, "This Gongsun Du has the same surname as Gongsun Zan. Is there any connection between the two?"

Yan Rou shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter if Gongsun Zan was in western Liaoning and Gongsun Du occupied eastern Liaoning."

Bai Xiaowen nodded. He knew that Gongsundu, who was recorded in history, operated in Liaodong for three generations. It was not until his grandson Gongsunyuan became the king of Yan and betrayed Cao Wei that he was pacified by Sima Yi's army.

Now that the era of separatist regimes has just begun, Gongsun Du should have occupied the four counties of Liaodong for a short time and his foundation is not deep.

Yuan Shao is a man of great success, and Gongsun Du sent envoys to submit to him, which made him full of ambition. Coupled with the remoteness and bitter cold of Liaodong, even if it is occupied, there is not much money to be made, so it did not continue the Eastern Expedition, acquiescing to the fact that Gongsundu separatized Liaodong.

Of course, another important reason is lack of free hand. At this time, Yuan Shao was sitting in the land of four states, and even the base camp of Jizhou still had a powerful Yellow Turban Army-the black mountain bandit Zhang Yan hadn't been pacified yet, so he had no time to take care of the affairs of Liaodong.

"Lord Inspector, why did you suddenly ask about Liaodong?" Yan Rou asked cautiously.

Bai Xiaowen sighed: "I went to visit my relatives in Jizhou yesterday, and my third brother Xianfu brought a secret report that an envoy from Cao Jun went to Xiangping to conspire with Gongsun Du to plot Youzhou and attack the rear of our army."

"Is there such a thing?" Yan Rou was shocked.

Actually there is none.

However, Bai Xiaowen made up lies based on the situation. When the Yuan and Cao families were stalemate at Guandu, and they were unable to fight for a long time, Cao Jun sent people to fan the flames in Yuan's backyard, which was also reasonable and highly credible.

Coupled with Yan Rou's identity, it is impossible to question Bai Xiaowen.

Yan Rou quickly calmed down,

Said: "Since the general sent the third son to deliver the secret report, there must be a countermeasure. I wonder how the general respects it?"

Bai Xiaowen said: "Father allowed me to act cheaply. General Yan, I plan to go to Xiangping City, Liaodong County, to meet Gongsundu and his son, and find out their true attitude."

"It's too dangerous! Sir Inspector is a rich man, he can't sit still, how can he take risks alone! For this kind of thing, just send a civil official as an envoy to Xiangping to test it out." Yan Rou said in surprise.

Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "If I send someone else, I can't rest assured that I haven't seen it with my own eyes. General Yan, I have made up my mind to go to Xiangping."

Yan Rou said helplessly: "Since this is the case, Lord Inspector needs to bring more soldiers and horses to prevent accidents."

Bai Xiaowen waved his hands and said: "If you bring a large army over, Gongsundu and his son will be terrified, how can they meet me? I only need five hundred elite soldiers for this trip, but I just need a prestigious general to accompany me."

As he spoke, Bai Xiaowen looked at Yan Rou.

Yan Rou lowered her head and pretended to be stupid.

Bai Xiaowen coughed, and had no choice but to order: "General Yan, you have been in the Youzhou Army for many years, and your prestige is well known. I have seen and seen, and the only person who can accompany me to Xiangping is you."

Yan Rou's face darkened: "Master Inspector, why don't you send Generals Jiao and Zhang to go together."

Bai Xiaowen said in his heart, these two people are incompetent, and they are Yuan Shao's generals, so it is inevitable that they will lose their way when they are mobilized. But this reason is really hard to say.

"Why, I am the son of a great general, the governor of Youzhou, and I dare to risk my life. Is it true that General Yan dare not go?"

The so-called inviting generals is not as good as aggressive generals. Most of the generals in the Three Kingdoms era followed this rule.

Yan Rou thought more. Speaking of this, if you refuse to go, you will be disobeying the military order, and your wealth and life will be in danger.

How about going to Xiangping with "Yuan Xi", seeing how calm "Yuan Xi" looks, he definitely wouldn't make fun of his own life... right?

Although Cecilia picked out 600 strong soldiers before, but Yan Rou still has more than 4,000 people under his command, and it is still no problem to pick out 500 strong soldiers.

Bai Xiaowen didn't tell Zhao Rong and others, leaving Cecilia to continue training the hussars. He himself took Yan Rou and five hundred elite soldiers and went straight to Xiangping City, Liaodong County.

...

"Second son of the Yuan family, brought troops to Xiangping city?"

Gongsun Du was startled, and hurriedly asked the pawn who came to report: "How many soldiers and horses does he bring?"

"My lord, there are only four or five hundred people."

Gongsun Du breathed a sigh of relief: "Open the city gate, please come in!"

Gongsun Kang on the side said: "Father, our Liaodong family and his Yuan family have always been well watered. Yuan Xi has been here for more than a year, and he only sent envoys to communicate, and never came in person! With soldiers and horses, could it be that they are here to plot against our state and county, so we must guard against it."

Gongsun Du said: "If you came to attack Xiangping, why would you bring only a few hundred soldiers? It's not surprising that these hundreds of people are just Yuan Xi's accompanying guards."

Gongsun Kang: "Does father know Yuan Xi's intention?"

Gongsun Du thought for a while and said: "At this time, Yuan Shao is confronting Cao Cao. If he wins, he will be able to unify the north and achieve the foundation of hegemony; if he loses, the four prefectures in Hebei will be lost. Yuan Shao probably sent Yuan Xi to inquire because he was afraid of instability in the rear. Mouth."

Gongsun Kang nodded: "Father's words are true. I know Yuan Xi, he is mediocre and cowardly, and has no strength to restrain a chicken. If his younger brother Yuan Shang has always been brave, he has to deal with it carefully, but Yuan Xi doesn't have to." I'm worried."

Gongsun Du said: "Just in case, let the other party place soldiers in the post, and only invite Yuan Xi to the banquet, and reserve 300 swordsmen and axes behind the tent. If he annexes our state and county The meaning is, the knife and the axe will kill immediately."

Gongsun Kang nodded with a smile: "Father, I have another idea. If Yuan Xi comes to inquire about the tone, my father can take this opportunity to knock Yuan's money and grain as a fee to appease the soldiers and civilians, how about it?"

"If Yuan Xi offers it on his own initiative, he can accept the gift, but he cannot ask for it forcibly."

After a pause, Gongsun Du explained: "Kang'er, if Yuan Xi has no intention of annexing, you must not be rude to Yuan Xi during the banquet. Yuan Shao is powerful, and he is likely to defeat Cao Cao. From now on, our father and son may even rely on them."

"Yes." Gongsun Kang complied.

On the other side, Bai Xiaowen led the uneasy Yan Rou and five hundred soldiers straight into Xiangping City.

Beside Bai Xiaowen, there was a figure covered in black robes. It looked like a woman, also riding a horse, half a body behind Bai Xiaowen.
