"Greetings to the King of Han!"
Gao Shun didn't squint his eyes and bowed his hands to pay homage to Liu Zhang.
But Xun Yu ignored him.
"General Gao, please get up. It's been a hard night!"
Liu Zhang personally reached out to help Gao Shun up and gave him high praise.
Overnight, defensive measures were deployed that would amaze anyone. Who else but Gao Shun could do this?
At a glance, there is almost no problem.
Even people who don't understand formation warfare can see the subtlety of this defensive method.
At the same time, the effort and energy expended is completely immeasurable.
"Thank you, King Han!"
Gao Shun's face was calm, showing no hint of joy at all.
His humility seemed to tell him that all this was what he should do.
Liu Zhang nodded slightly, full of affection.
He likes many generals and has many preferences, including a natural affinity for certain names.
But if he were to say that the general who reassured him the most and was the least worried was definitely Gao Shun.
This kind of pure soldier is something that no one can refuse.
"General Gao, you must be the first to defeat the 150,000 Wei army this time!"
"Thank you, King Han!"
Gao Shun thanked him again, and then said disdainfully,
"With a mere 150,000 people, how can we talk about merit? If the King of Han agrees, I am willing to personally lead 4,500 soldiers from the trapped camp to attack Cao Cao's main camp!"
"I swear to capture Cao Cao and defeat the 150,000-strong Wei army!"
"Hey, General Gao..."
Just when Liu Zhang was about to praise his loyalty and bravery, Xun Yu couldn't help but mock him.
"Haha, although it is a valley, the wind is not light! General Gao should take it easy!"
"After all, Feng Da flashed his tongue, but there is a precedent!"
Gao Shun turned his head slightly and looked over expressionlessly.
There is no sinister look, but it seems like endless killing intent is pouring out.
Xun Yu was just a scholar, how could he stand a general like Gao Shun who crawled out of the dead?
He was immediately frightened and took half a step back.
"You...what are you going to do?"
"hehe..."
Gao Shun smiled slightly, and all his endless killing intent disappeared.
"Thank you, Lord Xun, for reminding me. I wonder if Lord Xun is satisfied with my general's arrangements?"
Only then did Xun Yu realize that Gao Shun was playing tricks on him, and he became even more angry.
"Hmph! You are a general, but you have to ask a civil servant like me about battles. Are you ashamed?"
"Instead of asking me, you might as well ask Cao Mengde and ask him if he can break through your iron lumps!"
"Master Xun, why should you be angry?"
A rare chuckle appeared on Gao Shun's very serious face.
"Is it possible that Master Xun still hopes that Cao Cao will defeat this general?"
"You... don't talk nonsense!"
Xun Yu was very anxious and quickly reprimanded Gao Shun for his slander.
Now that things have reached this point, the possibility of escape is getting lower and lower.
Xun Yu was also unwilling to be exposed immediately.
Never give up until the last moment. This is Xun Yu's motto.
Otherwise, how could Liu Zhang be deceived into coming here?
In anger, Xun Yu suddenly had a plan in mind.
"King Han, look at this reckless man, targeting me at every turn! If you stay here any longer, I will be pissed to death by him!"
Liu Zhang raised his eyebrows and asked,
"What, Master Xun is leaving again?"
Xun Yu quickly shook his head.
"Cao is a thief, how dare I leave?"
"It's just that I can't work with this reckless man, so I ask the King of Han to give me a convenience!"
Liu Zhang neither refused nor agreed, and asked,
"How are you doing?"
Xun Yu thought for a moment and turned towards the outside of the valley.
"Reporting to the King of Han, I am worried about the alliance of clans."
"It's better to let the King of Han lead the trapped camp and defend here, while the veteran ministers go to personally supervise the battle!"
"worried!"
Liu Zhang screamed, his voice becoming sharper.
"Master Xun, are you kidding me?"
"I put my life in your hands and willingly entered the desperate situation. Are you worried about me?"
"No no no!"
Xun Yu was shocked and quickly waved his hand to refuse.
He secretly cursed himself for being so confused and would say anything to survive.
"King Han, I definitely don't mean that."
"Then what do you mean!"
Xun Yu's brain was spinning rapidly, and he quickly thought of a reason.
"This is the King of Han! After all, Xun Hong is the second generation of the Xun family. His identity, status, dignity, and prestige are not as high as those of the old minister!"
"If there is a stalemate in the war, I am worried that the noble families will not be willing to risk their lives. Xun Hong will not be able to command all the noble families."
"For the sake of the safety of the King of Han, I have asked you to personally take command and supervise the battle! If the allied forces of the world do not fight to the death, I will be the first to rush forward with a sword and fight the Wei army with my life, setting an example for the allied forces of the world with my life!"
After a pause, Xun Yu showed an awe-inspiring look.
"For the King of Han, I will die with no regrets!"
Bang bang bang!
Liu Zhang nodded in a daze and clapped rapidly.
"Master Xun is so righteous, he is willing to risk his life for Gu!"
Xun Yu thought Liu Zhang was complimenting him, so he expressed his determination even more.
"Even though I died, I have no regrets!"
"do not!"
Liu Zhang raised his hand to stop Xun Yu, then turned to Gao Shun and gave instructions.
"General Gao, tell the whole army to follow Gu out of the valley immediately and return to the river bank camp!"
"Since Mr. Xun has no confidence, why would Gu Ping put himself in danger?"
"The worst case scenario is that if we let Cao Cao guard it, we will besiege Yecheng alone!"
Gao Shun is a soldier and his priority is to obey orders, regardless of whether the decision is right or not.
Immediately surrendered to the order;
"I will obey your orders!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, preparing to pack up and lead the entire army to evacuate.
"etc!"
Xun Yu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Liu Zhang to have such a big reaction.
If this were to leave, wouldn't all previous efforts be in vain?
But Gao Shun ignored Xun Yu at all, as if he didn't hear his voice.
Xun Yu had no choice but to walk quickly in front of Gao Shun and stop him with his body.
"General Gao, please stay!"
Gao Shun looked serious.
"Master Xun, the King of Han has given the military order first, please get out of the way!"
"No, don't leave yet!"
"Step aside!"
Gao Shun roared, looking like he was going to fight.
"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude!"
Xun Yu gritted his teeth and never moved even a step.
He could walk without any physical pain.
But once you get out of the way, relying on the speed of being trapped in the camp, you can pack your bags in a moment.
Once they leave the valley, even if they encounter the Wei army, it will be of no avail.
At that time, Liu Zhang will be able to see the sea as wide as the fish can leap, the sky as high as the birds can fly, and everything will be over!
No matter what, Xun Yu couldn't let Gao Shun leave.
"General Gao, please listen to me!"
