Chapter 1137: Murder by Knife (Part II)

The book is picked up again.

There are two reasons why a person of noble status should be sent to death:

First, if you are not honorable, how can you lead an army of 10,000?

If you choose the son of a small family at random, how can other small families be convinced?

After all, the others didn't know the news that Zhang Yan had come here in advance, and they thought that this was a good time to take credit!

Therefore, if you send the son of a small family, then the others will have to make a fuss!

Second, if their status is not noble, how can they reflect their tragedy? How can I cope with the elders in my family?

The reason why they chose these 10,000 people to be sent to death was to cope with the reproach of the elders in the family.

If you send the son of a small family casually, then even if he dies, the elders of those big families don't care, but they will feel that they don't do their best!

And if a noble son dies, then no one can say that they didn't do their best!

"This ......" After thinking about it, Yuan Gongzi was very embarrassed, and there were not many people who could be called noble.

In their think tank, there are only three people who are qualified to be called noble, Yuan Gongzi, Zhou Gongzi and Chen Gongzi!

Of course, Yuan Gongzi will not risk his life, as for Zhou Gongzi......

Yuan Gongzi quietly looked at Zhou Gongzi who was smiling, and knew in his heart that Zhou Gongzi would definitely not be stupid to send him to death.

Therefore, they only have one last candidate left - Chen Gongzi!

......Thinking of this, Yuan Gongzi hesitated for a while, then frowned and asked Zhou Gongzi: "Brother Zhou, your idea is very good, but have you ever thought about sending someone to death?" ”

"Have you thought about it" Zhou Gongzi nodded calmly, and said: "There are countless sons of small families in our think tank, why don't you just send someone there when the time comes?" ”

"......" looked at Zhou Gongzi with a calm face, and Yuan Gongzi was silent.

He didn't know if Zhou Gongzi was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, so after being silent for a while, he said directly: "According to your method, we must choose a person of noble status to send to death."

But how many people with the most noble status must be understood by Brother Zhou in his heart, so he ......"

After saying this, he looked at Zhou Gongzi with a look of embarrassment.

Zhou Gongzi, who was still calm, frowned tightly as if he had just figured it out after hearing this.

"Huh......" After a long time, he let out a long breath, shook his head with a firm face, and said: "Please Brother Yuan forgive me, I really didn't expect this!"

Now it seems that this method is indeed inappropriate, since this is the case, then I should not use this method! ”

"......" Yuan Gongzi is a little unable to understand Zhou Gongzi now, he doesn't know if Zhou Gongzi said this on purpose, or if he didn't understand this matter from the beginning.

But no matter what it is, Yuan Gongzi understands that Zhou Gongzi is unwilling to say who sacrificed!

In fact, Yuan Gongzi was reluctant to propose to let Chen Gongzi die, but if he didn't use this method, Yuan Gongzi was a little unwilling in his heart.

So, after hesitating for a while, he shook his head and said, "No! This method still needs to be used.

But it can't be used on you

Isn't there an obnoxious guy here in the two of us? I can send him to death! ”

After finishing speaking, Yuan Gongzi let out a long breath, as if he had a matter on his mind, and thought to himself: "I finally said it!" ”

As the so-called dead friends do not die in the poor way, for a selfish person like Yuan Gongzi, as long as he can improve his chances of survival, even if he loses his companions, he will not hesitate!

The reason why he was reluctant to say the words "Chen Gongzi" just now was because he didn't want people to think that he was too cold.

Originally, he also planned to ask Zhou Gongzi to ask Zhou Gongzi to say who would go out and send him to death.

But since Zhou Gongzi is already planning to give up this method, he can only say the three words Chen Gongzi in person.

"This ......" After Zhou Gongzi heard Yuan Gongzi's words, he seemed to be frightened, and stood up suddenly, his face full of disbelief.

After a long time, he looked at Yuan Gongzi and asked, "Brother Yuan, this... Isn't that a little too unkind? ”

"Benevolence? Hum! Now that he has already said it, Yuan Gongzi no longer hides his true face, I saw that after he snorted coldly, he said with disdain: "Benevolence and righteousness are for your companions!" Is that bastard surnamed Chen our companion? ”

After saying this, he stared at Zhou Gongzi seriously and asked, "Have you forgotten his performance along the way?" Does he treat us as companions?

Look at him, since he joined the think tank, he has been arrogant, and even you and I look down on him, just like he is an elder of ours!

How can such a fool who is arrogant and ignorant of self-knowledge worthy to be our companion?! ”

"......" Zhou Gongzi heard this, and after being silent for a while, he nodded thoughtfully, "This is reasonable, it seems that the success does not regard you and me as companions, since this is the case, ......"

He didn't say the next words, but he smiled slightly at Yuan Gongzi, Yuan Gongzi also smiled back when he saw this, and the two reached an indescribable tacit understanding.

But if someone can see through people's hearts, they will find that compared to the really happy Yuan Gongzi, Zhou Gongzi's face has a smile that the conspiracy has succeeded!

"In that case, without further ado, let's quickly gather everyone to announce this."

"It's good!" After Zhou Gongzi nodded, he turned into a herald and trotted out all the way outside.

"......" After Zhou Gongzi left, Yuan Gongzi's eyes narrowed, staring deeply at Zhou Gongzi's back, not knowing what he was thinking.

……

Half an hour later, the entire think tank gathered in the staff's tent.

"Brother Yuan, I don't know why you gathered us here?"

Chen Gongzi was now very puzzled in his heart, hadn't their plan of action already been discussed last night?

"Ahem!" Hearing this, Yuan Gongzi cleared his throat, stood up, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the three of us discussed that we would divide the 20,000 army into 20 small units to harass Yanzhou, and the remaining 10,000 would be safe for us......

At this point, he paused and looked at the crowd.

Just after he finished speaking, the son of a small family stood up, frowned and asked, "Isn't this a good solution?" Why did Yuan Gongzi gather us and wait here?

Could it be that Yuan Gongzi wants to ask us if we agree to this method?

If that's the case, then Yuan Gongzi doesn't need to inform me to wait, as long as Yuan Gongzi agrees, then I will also agree! ”

"Huh...... Not really. After hearing the euphemistic sycophancy of this little family's son, Yuan Gongzi shook his head with a smile and said: "Originally, this plan was not bad, but this son thought about it all night last night, but found that this plan had a fatal flaw!" ”

"Oh? What's the flaw? "Last night's plan was basically proposed by Chen Gongzi, so when he heard Yuan Gongzi say that this plan was flawed, he stood up with no anger on his face.

When Yuan Gongzi heard this, he glanced at him and said: "Most of the ordinary people in Yanzhou are gathered in the hinterland, if we just harass the border of Yanzhou, I am afraid that we will not be able to accomplish the purpose of waiting for this at all!" ”

"......" After everyone heard Yuan Gongzi's words, they all fell into silence, and even Chen Gongzi had nothing to say at this time, because they all knew that Yuan Gongzi was right!

After thinking for a while, Chen Gongzi raised his head with a frown and asked, "Since Brother Yuan thought of this flaw, there must be a solution, right?" ”

"Hmm" Yuan Gongzi nodded, and said with a smile: "This Gongzi does have an immature suggestion.

Ben Gongzi thinks that since destroying the border of Yanzhou can't complete the task, why don't I directly destroy the hinterland of Yanzhou?!

There are still five or six days left before Zhang Yan comes here, and we can use these five or six days to send an elite army of soldiers and horses directly into the enemy's hinterland!

And the rest of the soldiers and horses will destroy the surrounding area of Yanzhou, so a two-sided attack will definitely be able to turn the entire Yanzhou upside down in a very short time! So ......"

As he said this, he glanced at everyone, "So, the purpose of this prince coming here today is to choose a leader who will lead this army of troops and horses straight into the enemy's hinterland!" ”

"Whoa......" After Yuan Gongzi's words settled, there was an uproar in the tent, and there was a fire in the eyes of the sons of all the families!

Everyone knows the importance of military merit!

Originally, the sons of those small families thought that they were just here to gild and not get much credit at all.

But after hearing Yuan Gongzi's words, they suddenly felt that this was a great opportunity!

As long as you can lead this army to the hinterland of Yanzhou, it can bring countless glory!

And, while it sounds like it's a very dangerous thing to go to the enemy's hinterland, it's actually not dangerous at all!

Zhang Yan still has five or six days to go here, and they can take this army of soldiers and horses to penetrate the enemy's hinterland in about a day and a half, and then spend another day destroying everywhere, and finally rush back in a day and a half!

That's just four days, so it's just too late!

In other words, whoever becomes the leader of this army can take a great credit for nothing!

After perceiving this, the son of a small family couldn't help but stand up and say loudly: "Although this trip is full of dangers, I am willing to die for the family!"

Yuan Gongzi, leave this task to the next to do! ”

As soon as his words fell, another person stood up with excitement on his face and shouted loudly: "This task is none other than me!" ”
