Three Kingdoms: I am the Holy Son of the Yellow Turbans, my father is a wise and good teacher

In Liaodong County.

When Xu Rong received the news that the Yellow Turban Army was already attacking the Liaodong vassal state, he went straight to his good brother Gongsun Du.

And as soon as they met, Xu Rong got straight to the point:

"Brother Shengji, if you ask me, the strongest army in Youzhou is the Yellow Turban Army. Why don't we join the Yellow Turban Army!"

"The Yellow Turban Army has a very good reputation in Youzhou. I have been to Guangyang County, and the people there are living better now than before."

After Xu Rong finished speaking, Gongsun Du fell silent.

He knew very well that what Xu Rong said made sense, but their Gongsun family had been managing Liaodong County for several generations.

Now it has finally come into his hands. If he surrenders to the Yellow Turban Army like this, wouldn't it be a betrayal of his ancestors?

Seeing that Gongsun Du didn't speak, Xu Rong continued to persuade him.

"Brother Shengji, we can actually negotiate with the Yellow Turban Army. As long as you propose that you continue to govern Liaodong County, I believe that the Saint Son of the Yellow Turban Army will agree."

"That Saint Son is famous for liking talents. With your ability, Brother Shengji, you will definitely be reused, so it should be possible for you to continue to be the governor of Liaodong County."

Xu Rong originally planned to develop in Xiliang, but when he passed Guangyang County, he encountered the Yellow Turban Army's house-confiscation and genocide.

Then Xu Rong stayed in Guangyang County for a while, and then found that the Yellow Turban Army was really good to the people.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army is now no worse than that of the regular army of the Han Dynasty, and there are so many fierce generals.

Some time ago, several students from Yingchuan Academy joined, which made Xu Rong decide that he would join the Yellow Turban Army to overthrow the Han Dynasty.

But he alone was not enough, so Xu Rong thought of his good brother Gongsun Du.

However, seeing Gongsun Du's hesitation, Xu Rong was also ready to continue persuading him, and he had to persuade him successfully.

At this critical moment, a soldier ran in.

"Report! The Yellow Turban Army has destroyed the three tribes of Su Fu Wan, Tan Zhi Wang, and Su Pu Yan, and is currently marching towards our Liaodong County!"

Then the soldier reported the battle reports of the Liaodong vassal states, which was also the information obtained by Gongsun Du's intelligence organization.

Gongsun Du's face turned ugly when he heard this. He didn't expect to solve Su Pu Yan so quickly.

Even if he himself faced Su Pu Yan, it would be a hard battle, and the most important thing was that it was impossible to be so fast.

Gongsun Du sighed: "Alas, is there only one way to surrender now? Wen Liang, do you think my Liaodong County soldiers can fight the Yellow Turban Army?"

If he surrendered directly, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, and he still had some ambitions in his heart.

Xu Rong pondered for a while and then said: "Let's talk about the fighting power of the soldiers first. Brother Shengji, do you have the confidence to destroy Su Puyan's Wuhuan elite cavalry in one battle?"

Xu Rong's direct question made Gongsun Du silent again. Yes, none of his subordinates can defeat the Wuhuan elite cavalry.

How can it be possible to defeat or tie with the Yellow Turban Army in this regard? It's a bit unrealistic.

Xu Rong thought for a while and then spoke: "In fact, you can fight with the Yellow Turban Army. Brother Shengji, your military power is the best in Liaodong County."

"If you can tie with the fierce generals of the Yellow Turban Army in the fight, you will have a certain dignity when you surrender."

"Of course, if you fail, you can also surrender to the Yellow Turban Army naturally. This is not surrender, but active surrender!"

Gongsun Du nodded. Now this is the only way to act in this situation. You will definitely not be able to win.

Instead of adding more casualties, it is better to surrender directly in the name of fighting generals. This way is indeed a good one.

"Then it is settled. Brother Wenliang, you should also come with me, right?"

After saying that, Gongsun Du looked at Xu Rong. If you persuaded him for so long, and you didn't come, it would be too unkind.

Xu Rong laughed and said, "Haha, of course, I will definitely join!"

Xu Rong returned to Liaodong for this purpose, so how could he not join now?

So the two of them hit it off and immediately summoned the county soldiers of the entire Liaodong County to welcome the arrival of the Yellow Turban Army.

......

"Are you saying that Gongsun Du has already set up his formation?"

Zhang Fu looked at Shi Qian in confusion. This information is interesting. Gongsun Du didn't even defend the city. How confident he is.

If you think about it carefully, Gongsun Du is also a powerful figure.

After becoming the governor of Liaodong, he enforced strict laws and cracked down on powerful forces, making the administration smooth.

He also attacked Goguryeo in the east, Wuhuan in the west, and Liaodong in the south.Peninsula, crossed the sea to take the Donglai counties in the northern part of Jiaodong Peninsula, expanded the territory, and married his daughter to Wei Choutai, the king of Fuyu, recruited talents, set up schools, recruited refugees, and spread his power overseas.

Gongsun Du's enterprising spirit and painstaking management brought temporary peace to Liaodong region and promoted the development of local production technology and feudal culture.

During this period, Liaodong region "the strong did not bully the weak, the majority did not oppress the minority, and the merchants did not double the price", which was quite peaceful.

At the same time, the Central Plains was turbulent and wars were endless, and many people from the Central Plains took refuge in Liaodong.

So on the whole, Gongsun Du is very capable and is definitely a first-class talent.

"Yes, my lord, this is all the information I personally investigated, and it will definitely not be wrong!"

If the information obtained by others may be wrong, but it is basically impossible for Shi Qian.

Upon hearing this, Yang Zaixing suggested: "My Lord, just go ahead and kill them!"

Yang Zaixing also wanted to see this daring guy. Liaodong County could be said to be the last place to be attacked.

He must have received some intelligence from the previous time.

Since he dared to do this after receiving the intelligence, it means that Gongsun Du is fearless.

Wen Chou frowned and said: "Yes, my Lord, this Gongsun Du is really too arrogant!"

Seeing that these generals seemed to be a little angry, Guo Jia took the initiative to stand up.

"It may not be what the generals think. In Jia's opinion, Gongsun Du must have intended to join the Yellow Turban Army."

"But due to face or other factors, he was unable to make the right choice for a while, so the current scene appeared."

"So Jia's suggestion is that you don't have to rush to kill after you arrive, but to ask Gongsun Du what he really thinks."

"If he originally wanted to join the Yellow Turban Army, but we killed too many people, causing Gongsun Du to change his mind, then it would be our loss."

Guo Jia had arranged for the bad guys to sneak into Liaodong County a long time ago, so Guo Jia knew something about the current situation in Liaodong County.

In Guo Jia's evaluation, Gongsun Du was a great talent with both civil and military skills. Whether he was placed in the army or sent to govern the local area, he was a first-class player.

If there is a chance to recruit such a talent, it is natural to recruit him, and only kill him when it is absolutely necessary.
