"Marquis Ji received the order,,,,,,"

Gongsun Xu was the most outstanding of Gongsun Zan's sons, and he was also the eldest son. Gongsun Zan was granted the title of Marquis of Ji in his early years. Although he was defeated later, this title should be inherited by Gongsun Xu.

A few years ago, after Gongsun Xu and Chen Feng gained great fame in the north, Cao Cao re-appointed Gongsun Xu as Marquis Ji in order to separate them. Therefore, it is right for the envoy to call him this way now, and it is even right for him to do so. Gongsun Xu respected him very much.

"Is this His Majesty's will, or is it Sima Yi's thoughts?"

"Here, Jihou Mingjian, this is naturally His Majesty's will, and it is just Lord Sima's reference for His Majesty..."

"Okay, let's just talk about what Sima Yi asked, and see if I can agree. If not, there is no need to read the imperial decree. You should leave as soon as possible."

"This, this, Marquis Ji, you are really disrespecting His Majesty by doing this. If this is spread..."

"You don't seem to understand me. Could it be that I didn't speak clearly enough?"

Gongsun Xuchang is very handsome, and can even be said to be a rare handsome man in the world, so as long as he is not angry and treats people peacefully, others can always see a handsome Gongsun Xu.

But this Marquis Ji is actually not as peaceful as he appears on the surface, as long as he is angry, those close to him can feel the temperature of the nearby air drop a lot.

The envoy in front of him clearly felt Gongsun Xu's anger, especially, the waves of killing intent came from Gongsun Xu's body, oppressing the envoy with a feeling of chest tightness.

He really couldn't figure it out, like Gongsun Xu, who also came from a noble family, shouldn't have such a cruel and raging aura. After all, the other party is not a murderer.

After some negotiations, the envoy couldn't bear the pressure brought by Gongsun Xu after all, and had no choice but to leave, but Gongsun Xu had no intention of letting go.

"Commander, since an envoy is sent in the city, it means that it is possible to take Xuchang by non-military means. If so, why bother to send this envoy away."

The lieutenant next to him didn't understand why Gongsun Xu did this. After all, it was a good thing to be able to win Xuchang as soon as possible.

As for Gongsun Xu, he had no intention of bargaining at all, and even when the envoy took out the emperor's name, Gongsun Xu directly blocked his mouth, preventing him from continuing.

"Continue to deduce, don't worry, there will still be envoys in the city before breaking through Xuchang."

Gongsun Xu seemed to have a plan in his chest, even if he sent the emissary away, he didn't care.Things went as he expected, on the second day, another envoy was sent from the city, but this time, because the two sides failed to reach an agreement, Gongsun Xu ordered him to be taken out after [-] years.

In this way, a total of seven envoys went to Gongsun Xu's camp one after another, but without exception, they all returned without success, and they were all beaten by Gongsun Xu's staff, even if the conditions stated in the imperial edict brought by these envoys It's getting richer and richer, so Gongsun Xu doesn't care.

"This Gongsun Xu is so difficult."

In the bedroom, Sima Yi half-closed his eyes and was thinking about the problem. It was his idea to send envoys to the enemy's camp, and it was also his idea to propose so many favorable conditions, in order to make the opponent retreat, but Gongsun Xu was tough and persistent , beyond his imagination.

Two days later, another envoy was sent from the city. These days, although the city continued to send envoys, Gongsun Xu did not give an order to stop the siege.

That is to say, the war has been going on, and the pressure on the defenders in the city is also increasing. This is also the main reason why the conditions in the imperial decree will become more and more favorable.

"Xiaguan Mada met Jihou."

"Why, is that His Majesty in the city still unwilling to give up? Now he dares to send someone to negotiate with me. Could it be that I haven't killed enough people these days? Are the methods not strong enough?"

"Ji Hou was joking. A hero like Ji Hou is naturally a great hero who can kill thousands of people. This time, I came here under the order of my Patriarch, not His Majesty's will."

"Oh, who is the head of your family?"

"Sima Yi,,,,,,"

Chapter 724 Unexpected 1

The literati in front of him was very calm, even when facing Gongsun Xu with bloody hands, he didn't panic at all. This state of mind alone is enough to be called rare.

"Let's talk about what conditions were offered this time. I would like to see what benefits those aristocratic families in the city can give me. Hehe, I am also curious as to how I will retreat."

"Don't dare, dare not, Marquis Ji led tens of thousands of elites, broke through the city and captured the village all the way, and besieged Xuchang with soldiers. Such a record is enough to look down on the heroes of the world. Even Prime Minister Cao, I am afraid it will be difficult to match..."

Hearing this, Gongsun Xu had a strange smile on his face. He thought that he was very good, and there were few opponents in the battlefield. However, if compared with Cao Cao, he knew that he was still insufficient.

Quietly waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Gongsun Xu still smiled and said nothing, not because he also agreed with the other party's words, but he really wanted to know what this messenger could make of him.

"Finished?"

"Uh, what does Marquis Ji mean by this?"

Seeing the other party's dry mouth, the smile on Gongsun Xu's face became wider.The guy on the opposite side has been flattering himself since he entered the big tent, and has used all the means he can use. This guy is quite thick-skinned.

"After finishing speaking, I will go back. I am going to command the siege. You still have half an hour."

It seemed that he was used to being flattered by others, and it seemed that he didn't listen to such flattery at all. Gongsun Xu seemed to be too lazy to pay attention to the other party. The last sentence was already an expulsion order.

"People in the world rumored that General Gongsun was a martial artist, but they thought it was just a rumor. After all, there are many people who are hard to live up to under the prestige. When I saw him today, I realized that General Gongsun is far more than that.

General, I was in Menglang just now. I apologize to you. Now it seems that what I said just now is undoubtedly self-inflicted, but the general laughed. "

As if he heard what Gongsun Xu meant, this guy immediately changed into a serious and calm face. From his sincere words, it seemed that he could hear a trace of respect for Gongsun Xu.

However, he obviously underestimated Gongsun Xu's character. In other words, Gongsun Xu is a guy who doesn't like oil and salt at all. No matter how you compliment him, he still has that expression.

With such an embarrassing expression and such an embarrassing situation, Gongsun Xu refused to speak, so the emissary could only stand there in embarrassment. After all, he also realized that no matter how much he complimented him, Gongsun Xu would not change. expression.

"Go on, I'm listening."

"General, you..."

"If you finish talking, then please leave. It won't be long before the siege battle begins. At that time, my soldiers will not recognize anyone. If you dare to approach the city wall, they will tear you apart."

"Don't the general want to hear the conditions proposed by my master? Perhaps, it was unexpected to you."

"Your time is running out. Say it now, and you still have time to return to the city."

Silence, the entire big tent presents an embarrassing silent atmosphere, Gongsun Xu's indifferent expression, this indifferent attitude, if it was someone else, I am afraid he would have turned his head and left.

"My lord, please accept my next obeisance. My master told me before I came out that there are many heroes in the world, but there is no one like Ji Hou who can kill from Liaodong to the Western Regions.

Not long after my master captured Xuchang, Marquis Ji led an army to Xuchang. This may be God's will, it was God who ordered my master to seize this place for Marquis Ji.

A few days ago, the reason why my master sent envoys here was just to test your attitude, Ji Hou. Now it seems that my master made the right choice.

Xuchang is right in front of you. My master has united many families in the city, and they are all willing to honor Marquis Ji as the master, welcome Marquis Ji to rule Xuchang, and dominate the Central Plains. "

The envoy's words were shocking to the world. If it were any other person, they would either jump up excitedly or be stunned in shock.

But Gongsun Xu was different, he didn't seem to hear what the other party said, and it seemed that he did hear it, but he didn't care what the other party meant.

"Jihou, you,,,,,,"

"Oh, are you done? I thought you were going to keep talking."

Gongsun Xu stood up slowly, and then walked towards the messenger. An invisible aura enveloped the messenger, and the whole big tent was silent. Gongsun Xu walked behind him, and suddenly put a hand on the other's shoulder .

The emissary was very puzzled, he didn't know what Gongsun Xu was doing, out of instinct, he looked back at Gongsun Xu in doubt, only to see this Marquis Ji looking at him with a smiling face.
