Days passed.

Although Gongsun Zan snatched a lot of food and grass from the people, it was not enough for the army to use every day, and the food and grass were still getting less and less.

There is no food left in the homes of the people.

As for the defenders in Jixian County, the morale is getting lower every day.

Everyone knows the current situation, Ji County will be destroyed sooner or later, it only depends on how long it can hold on.

After Ji County was broken, these defenders had two options, either to die in battle or to surrender.

A soldier is a soldier, and it is still different from the civil and military under Gongsun Zan's command, and his loyalty will never be that high.

Low loyalty means low morale, which means low combat.

Gongsun Zan has been through the battlefield for a long time, how could he not see this phenomenon.

It's just that Gongsun Zan has no good way to deal with the trapped beast.

Guan Yu is familiar with "Spring and Autumn" and has a lot of strategies. At this moment, there is nothing he can do.

On this day, the soldiers at the top of the city came to report that it was Hua Yu who asked Gongsun Zan to tell the story.

"What kind of tricks is this Chinese thief doing?" Gongsun Zan frowned, waved his hand, and shouted, "Come on, call the two generals Shangguan Ji to go to the west gate to have a look."

After a while, Guan Yu and Ji Ling arrived, and Gongsun Zan led them to the west gate.

Sure enough, outside the west city gate, Hua Yu and another person were standing side by side on horseback outside the shooting range.

Just two people?

The three of Gongsun Zan couldn't figure out what tricks Hua Yu wanted to play.

When they came to the top of the city, Gongsun Zan shouted loudly: "Hua Bandit, if there is any conspiracy, just use it, we will follow."

Hua Yu laughed loudly: "Gongsun Bogui, you and I were originally allies, but you were slandered by Yuan Benchu, Cao Mengde, and Liu Xuande, and that's why you fought against the lonely."

"Gu, I'm not a person who will be killed all the time, but I'm thinking about the old relationship, and I'm here to tell you and give you a way out."

"Do you know, Bogui, who is this person beside Gu?"

Gongsun Zan had already noticed Gongsundu just now, but the last time he saw Gongsundu was ten years ago after all, and his impression was already blurred, so he couldn't recognize him immediately.

However, due to the bitter cold in Liaodong, the armor is still very different from that of the Central Plains, including Gongsun Zan's Youzhou Army.

Gongsun Zan just thought about it for a while, and suddenly remembered something, and immediately blurted out: "It's Gongsun Shengji."

Shengji is the surname of Gongsun Du.

"What?" Guan Yu couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.

A few days ago, Hua Yu sent people to kill many people in the city, claiming that the Liaodong reinforcements were defeated by the Wei army.

At that time, it once aroused panic and fear among the defenders of Jixian County.

For this reason, Guan Yu offered a plan and sent people to break out of the encirclement to inform Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others of Hua Yu's brutal behavior, and let them make the matter public.

As a result, there was a big oolong in which Chen Dao led Bai Ma Yicong to join Hua Yu.

Later, the more Guan Yu thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

How could Gongsundu's reinforcements be defeated by Hua Yu so quickly? It must be fake. Those heads were not from the Liaodong Army.

Gongsun Zan and Ji Ling also felt that it was reasonable, so they told the news to the defenders of Ji County to stabilize their morale.

Now, Gongsun Du suddenly appeared, and beside Hua Yu, Guan Yu only felt his face was hot, and thought to himself, did I guess wrong again?
Gongsun Du cupped his hands and said, "That's right, Bogui, I am Gongsun Du."

"I came here today to tell you one thing."

"Bogui, you sent Zhao Gai as an envoy to persuade me to send troops to help us fight against the Wei army. I also agreed and sent troops."

"However, Duke Wei's strategy is terrific, and he is both civil and military. I am not Duke Wei's opponent. The entire army was wiped out, and I became a prisoner."

"Fortunately, Wei Gong can let the past go, spare my life, and let me continue to be the governor of Liaodong."

"Such a heart, looking at the world, no one can match."

"Therefore, I have recognized Duke Wei as the master, and since then I have devoted myself to Duke Wei with all my heart, and I dare not have any rebellious heart."

"I came here today just to persuade Bogui, don't be an enemy of my lord."

"Bogui and my lord have no grudges or enmities in the past. They are just a battle for hegemony in the world."

"Although there are casualties, this is a public matter, not a personal enmity. My lord is magnanimous and will not care about it."

"My master's plotter is nothing more than Guan Yunchang, and Bogui knows better than me the grievances between him and my master."

"As well as General Ji Ling, Yuan Gonglu and my lord were also allies in the past."

"Although the whole family of the Yuan family was copied and beheaded, my lord is only following orders, and all grievances and grievances are on Dong Zhuo."

"Therefore, my lord is unwilling to kill General Ji."

"As long as Bogui and General Ji can capture Guan Yu and sacrifice Ji County, the prosperity and wealth in the future will naturally be indispensable. I ask the two of you to make a decision."

After Gongsun Du finished speaking, he immediately mobilized the horse's head and returned to Hua Yu's side.

Hua Yu shouted loudly: "Gongsun Shengji's words mean loneliness."

"Gongsun Bogui, General Ji, the two of you can pass on your loneliness to the defenders of Ji County."

"As long as Guan Yu is the leader alone, he will never kill anyone in vain."

"As for the lonely words, you should think about it for a while."

"Shengji, let's go back to the camp." Then, Hua Yu mobilized the horse's head and brought Gongsun Du back to the camp.

Hua Yu left with Gongsun Du, but what they said just now remained, lingering in everyone's ears, and could not be dispersed for a long time.

Suddenly, Guan Yu felt that everyone's eyes seemed to be on him.

A creepy feeling immediately appeared in his heart, Guan Yu instinctively grabbed the hilt of the saber, and shouted sharply: "Why, General Gongsun, don't you believe the rhetoric of the Chinese thief?"

A smile appeared on Gongsun Zan's face: "Yun Chang is overhearted."

"We are the allies, advancing together and retreating together. How can we create a rift and mess ourselves up because of a provocative statement from the Chinese thief?"

Then, Gongsun Zan turned around and yelled, "Listen, everyone, this is Hua Yu's plan to divide us. He wants to disintegrate our army from within so that he can take down Ji County without bloodshed."

"As for Ji County's defeat, it must be a tragic image of blood flowing like a river. Have you forgotten about those heads?"

"Everyone sticks to their positions, and they must not discuss what happened just now, otherwise, they will be killed immediately."

"Here." Everyone responded in unison.

Guan Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly let go of the hand holding the sword hilt.

However, what Guan Yu didn't expect was that.

Although Gongsun Zan said so, the words of Hua Yu and Gongsun Du were buried in the hearts of these people like a seed, slowly taking root and sprouting.

Gongsun Zan and Ji Ling took into account the alliance, their own reputation, and Yuan Shu's reputation, so they would not really kill Guan Yu and surrender.

At least, they haven't made up their minds yet.

But the defenders in Ji County had a different idea.
