When Gongsun Zan heard Tian Chou's humiliating words, he said coldly: "Tian Chou, Lu Xuan promised to take the north and make me the King of Yan. In the future, I will be the King of Yan in the North, and you will become my subordinate. By then, you will be the king of Yan." Pay the price for your words today.”
Tian Chou's elegant face showed a look of disdain, and he mocked: "Are you, Gongsun Zan, worthy of being the King of Yan?"
Gongsun Zan said: "This is Lu Xuan's promise."
Tian Chou said in a deep voice: "You refused to fight against Yuan Shao this time. If Guan Jing had not overrided all opinions and ordered the entire army to attack, although we could defeat Yuan Shao, the casualties would have increased a lot. Are you so weak and incompetent that you are worthy of being the king of Yan? ?”
Gongsun Zan said angrily: "I'm not worthy, how can you, Tian Chou, be worthy?"
Tian Chou sneered and said calmly: "Of course I am not worthy. I am just a minister of the king and cannot overstep my bounds. As for you Gongsun Zan, without the appearance of the king, the civil servants and generals under your command would have dispersed long ago."
"In the past, you were like a woman, staying in the city all day long, looking like a vicious dog licking your wounds."
"You only know how to cower."
"My own generals were surrounded and suppressed by Yuan Shao. Not only did you not rush to help, but you said that if you rushed to the rescue of one person, more people would not try their best to resist, so you refused to send troops to rescue. The reason why people like you can accomplish this is that lucky."
"Because of the king's strategizing, the situation in Youzhou was changed and Wuhuan was wiped out. Now that Yuan Shao has been defeated, you are jumping out to gain benefits and further negotiate terms with the king."
"You touch your conscience, are you worthy? You take a pee and look at yourself, are you okay? Try your mind, are you okay?"
"waste!"
Tian Chou yelled directly.
Gongsun Zan once drove out Wuhuan in Youzhou and attacked Xianbei, which was indeed powerful. But this man is extremely conceited and self-righteous. Now, Gongsun Zan wants to negotiate terms with Lu Xuan, but that is a fool's dream.
Just in time, I took the opportunity to beat Gongsun Zan and let Gongsun Zan see the reality clearly.
Gongsun Zan was so angry that he clenched his fists and stared at Tian Chou with his eyes wide open. In anger, he suddenly took out the sword in his right hand and pointed it at Tian Chou. He gritted his teeth and said, "Tian Chou, do you think I dare not kill you?"
Sonorous!
Zhang Liao then drew his sword out of its sheath, his face was as cold as ever before, and he said in a deep voice: "Gongsun Zan, please think twice before you act."
Tian Chou smiled again and did not take Gongsun Zan's actions seriously.
He reached out and pushed Zhang Liao's sword, asking Zhang Liao to put away the sword, then stepped forward and walked to the tip of Gongsun Zan's sword.
Gongsun Zan's pupils shrank and he asked, "Are you really not afraid of death?"
Tian Chou pinched the blade of the sword, pulled it forward, pointed it at his chest, and said: "Come, if you want to kill me, just come. I, Tian Chou, am the governor of Youzhou appointed by the king and act on behalf of the governor of Youzhou. I am responsible for the size of Youzhou." matter."
"If you kill me, it is equivalent to killing the feudal official of Wu State. For this alone, the king will give me justice. Without further ado, there is no problem in exchanging one life for another. In addition, everyone in the Gongsun family must pay Pay the price."
"With my life, in exchange for your being killed, and in exchange for the future of everyone in the Gongsun family, why not?"
"If you want to kill, just kill."
Tian Chou held his head high, looked calm, and said loudly: "General Zhang Liao is in charge of the war in Youzhou. If you kill me, it won't affect the situation. Come on, just kill me. I'll give you a chance."
Gongsun Zan's expression changed slightly.
The expression on his face was unprecedentedly solemn.
He was full of murderous intent and wanted to kill Tian Chou who had plotted against him. But after listening to Tian Chou's words and looking at Tian Chou's calm and collected appearance, my heart tightened inexplicably, and I was actually very nervous.
Tian Chou is right.
Although Tian Chou is only the governor of Youzhou, he is a border official appointed by Lu Xuan. He will definitely be punished for killing Lu Xuan.
Tian Chou looked at Gongsun Zan's hesitation, his eyes became more and more disdainful, and continued: "Gongsun Zan, let me be more thorough. With the conflict between you Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, if you go to Yuan Shao's subordinates, you will be killed in the blink of an eye."
"Because you have no use value."
"Returning to this war, if it weren't for the existence of Yijing City, Yuan Shao would not have lost two generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou. For this reason alone, Yuan Shao must kill you in his heart."
"Now you have no way out. But look at yourself, you are still so domineering and showing off your temper. Do you think it is still the time in the past when you defeated Yuan Shao and conquered Youzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou?"
"Times have changed a long time ago."
Tian Chou said in a cold tone: "Remember clearly, no one is willing to be loyal to you. From the time you hunkered down in Yijing City and ignored no one, you lost everyone's trust and lost everyone's hearts. Guan Jing These people are your subordinates, but they are also loyal ministers of the king, and you are just a symbolic mascot."
Gongsun Zan felt as if there was thunder exploding in his head, and he was stunned and shocked.
His mood was very low.
Bang!
The sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Kick! Kick! !
Gongsun Zan took two steps back, his expression becoming increasingly lonely and dejected.
Gongsun Zan thought carefully and realized that everyone under his command, including the personal guards around him, had abandoned him.
Tian Chou had no sympathy for Gongsun Zan, and with sharp eyes, he further said: "You, Gongsun Zan, were able to gain a foothold in Youzhou, but you only gained power temporarily. You are just a reckless man."
"Do you know how to govern Youzhou?"
"You don't understand anything."
"If you knew how to govern, Youzhou would not be abandoned for several years, and the people would not be invaded by Wuhuan and Xianbei."
"If you knew how to govern, you wouldn't be sworn friends with the magician Liu Weitai, the peddler Li Yizi, and the businessman Le He. You would give them preferential treatment at every turn and let them bully the people and violate laws and disciplines in Youzhou."
"If you knew how to govern, you would not leave your soldiers and officials behind, hide like a woman in Yijing City, and let Yuan Shao run rampant."
Tian Chou flicked his sleeves and said loudly: "You don't understand that virtuous ministers are close to you and treacherous and treacherous at a distance, and you don't understand the art of governing the country. It's a big joke that someone like you can run rampant in Youzhou for several years."
Gudong!
Gongsun Zan swallowed his saliva and looked like he was about to cry.
thump!
He collapsed on the ground, his eyes were blank, his head was hunched, he had lost his energy and the courage to raise an army to accuse him. Originally, he came to ask questions in an aggressive manner, but now he was scolded to death.
Tian Chou said: "To be a rich man, you should be a rich man. If you don't have the strength, ability and government, but still have the idea of taking power, that is a heart that is higher than the sky and a life that is thinner than paper. Think about it carefully."
"Back off!"
Tian Chou waved his sleeves and gave the order.
Gongsun Zan stood up in confusion and staggered away, leaving Zhang Liao and Tian Chou in the camp.
Zhang Liao's eyes sparkled and he praised: "Tian Changshi's words are as sharp as a knife and Zhang Liao admires them."
Tian Chou smiled and said: "General Wenyuan deserves the reward. When Gongsun Zan was high-spirited, he was heroic. Now, he is just a greedy waste. Let's not talk about him anymore, let's talk about the arrangements for continuing to attack Yuan Shao."
