It was already dark, and except for the night watchmen in the camp outside the city, all the soldiers had fallen asleep safely.
A black shadow silently flashed through the shadows of the camp where the torches could not reach, completely blending into the night.
This man was extremely fast and did not make any sound under his feet, so he was not discovered by the soldiers on patrol at night.
It's true to say that as Gongsun Zan's base camp and the elite of his direct army, no one in this world would be stupid enough to sneak in here alone. After all, there is really nothing to plot.
No one thought that someone would sneak in, so the precautions were not very strict. In addition, this person was too fast and his figure was too weird, so it was normal for him not to be discovered.
He came to a camp tent, looked around, then gently lifted the tent curtain and ducked in.
In addition to the intelligence provided to him by Liang Sicheng, he relied on his own passive talent. Otherwise, it would be difficult to find his target.
That's right, the person who came was none other than Qi Zhen.
After everyone had eaten, Qi Zhen set off without stopping and left the city before the city gate was opened.
He waited outside the camp gate until it was completely dark before he officially started his infiltration plan.
The talent of falling into dreams is too suitable for use in this situation. This talent can only be effective when others are sleeping. In other words, if the other party is awake, then Qi Zhen cannot detect the other party's location.
Qi Zhen listened to the snoring one after another around her, and tiptoed to a soldier, holding the soldier's throat with her right hand.
Saying sorry in his heart, he suddenly exerted force with his right hand and broke the opponent's neck with a snap.
Then he ducked out of the barracks and moved towards the next barracks.
In the strategy of Wisdom Tree, there is no detailed mention of what to do in Youzhou in order to recruit Zhao Yun into the team, or to master the white horse Yi Cong, let alone turn the entire Youzhou upside down.
In the guide, Qingzhou is where everyone in the team shows off their ambitions.
At that time, everyone in the team that has complete control of Qingzhou Mansion will participate in the alliance of the eighteen princes to fight against Dong Zhuo as Gongsun Zan's direct relatives.
It's just that Qi Zhen has never been a person who plays cards according to common sense. He sent Wang Jianguo and Zhaka to Luoyang in advance, then left Lin Biao in Yizhou, and then Shi Shiran accompanied Liu, Guan, and Zhang to Youzhou. State Office.
Qi Zhen didn't want to wait, she still wanted to try to control the situation in Youzhou.
After killing about five or six middle-level captains in one circle, Qi Zhen knew that his mission had been completed today. He sneaked out of the military camp again and disappeared into the vast night.
The second day is the day after the first day. This is nonsense, but this day is an extraordinary day for both Gongsun Zan in the city and the team.
Gongsun Zan has been having some bad luck these past two days, especially after getting up this morning, his temples were pounding, and he always felt like something bad was going to happen.
Yesterday at noon, Guan Jing came to find him and said a lot of things. Even though he believed in Zhao Yun again, he still felt a little uncomfortable no matter what.
This Zhao Yun had been flirting with those people when he was in the mansion. He didn't expect to get together with them after leaving the mansion. Did he not know how to avoid suspicion?
Although he still trusted Zhao Yun in his heart, Gongsun Zan still sent his cronies to follow the people to see what was going on with them.
After all, one can't listen to Guan Jing's words.
However, what happened last night was not just as simple as making him uncomfortable. According to reports from the camp outside the city, there was a confidant following everyone. Zhao Yun and those few people actually got together without hesitation, and their behavior They are so close that they are like brothers with different surnames.
Could it be that you, Zhao Yun, have really rebelled against you for a long time?
presumptuous! You really think you are nothing but Rufu who came out with a group of people from Changshan County. You really think you are a general! ?
I want to see how you explain it!
As a result, when Zhao Yun reported back, he only mentioned that everyone on the other side was aboveboard and made no secretive moves. When he visited the military camp, he just lamented the clean appearance of the Baima Yi Conscript army, but did not mention a word about the intimate behavior between the two parties.
how? I'm afraid you, Zhao Yun, feel a little guilty!
It is understandable that Liu Bei is thirsty for talents and eager for success. After all, he is not young, and he is the queen of Zhongshan Prince Jing. If he does not have some ambitions, I will look down on him.
But who are you, Zhao Yun, how could you be flirting with the other person right under your nose! ?
Gongsun Zan suppressed his anger and retreated from Zhao Yun, thinking that he would send everyone away quickly. After two days... No! Tomorrow, they will be ordered to go to Qingzhou on the grounds that the war in Qingzhou is tense. As long as these people leave, Youzhou will settle down again.
After getting up this morning, the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger. Without further ado, those people must leave immediately.
He was about to go to the study to draft military orders, but he heard soldiers outside the door reporting that something had happened in the camp outside the city!
"What, you say that again?!" Gongsun Zan looked at the shivering soldier in silver armor kneeling below, his eyes widening.
"We gathered this morning, but there were six captains who hadn't gotten up yet. When we went to call, we found... we found that their necks had been broken for some reason." This soldier obviously did not expect that the camp outside the city would be so heavily armed. How could such a horrific crime happen?
"When did they die?" Gongsun Zan asked again.
The soldier shook his head and felt bitter in his heart. He had no idea when the other party was killed, but he still considered and whispered: "I'm afraid he has been dead for a while. When we found the body, it was already stiff."
"Why are there only six? Who are they? Please report them quickly!" Gongsun Zan said anxiously.
The soldiers reported the names of the dead captains one by one. After hearing this, Gongsun Zan felt cold in his heart.
"I understand, go down and ask Zhao Yun to come over."
After a long time, when the soldier couldn't help but start to sweat, Gongsun Zan took a deep breath and said calmly.
"Yes!" The soldier retreated majestically.
"Come here!" Gongsun Zan shouted.
A private soldier stepped forward, clasping his fists and obeying the order.
"Tell three battalions of soldiers seven miles away from Youzhou to surround the Baima Yicong camp. I want to personally investigate this criminal case. I will also find ten guards from the mansion to come here and hide around the study to listen to my instructions."
"yes!"
Zhao Yun felt a little uneasy for some reason today. After thinking about it, he felt that it was because his master seemed to be deliberately cold towards him yesterday, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what the reason was.
When I meet my lord today, I must ask him clearly.
At this moment, there was a knock on his door.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Yun asked.
"I don't know, I just asked General Zhao to come over." The soldier said.
"Okay, wait until I put on the armor." Zhao Yun said.
"The Lord said that you should go immediately." The soldier said again.
Zhao Yun thought for a while, said nothing, and walked out of the room.
"General Zhao, if there is nothing else, I will return to the camp first."
"Wait a minute." Zhao Yun stopped him, "What happened today? Why is my lord so eager to call me over?"
"Yesterday night, six captains from the Baimayi camp outside the city died. You still don't know?" the soldier asked.
Zhao Yun shook his head blankly.
"Perhaps the Lord wants to discuss this matter with you. You should go quickly. I will retire at the end." The soldier clasped his fists and bowed his hands in a salute, then left.
Zhao Yun didn't ask anything, and hurriedly came to Gongsun Zan's mansion with great doubts, and saw the lord with a sinking face in the study.
"Zilong pays homage to my lord." Zhao Yun knelt down on one knee and said with clasped fists.
"Zilong, how long have you been following me?" Gongsun Zan's gloomy face seemed to be dripping with water.
Before Zhao Yun could answer, Gongsun Zan continued: "When you took eight hundred volunteers from Changshan County to defect to me, I once asked you why you didn't go to Yuan Benzhu when you were in Jizhou, but you wanted to make contributions here. You What did you say at that time?"
"You said there is benevolent government here, and you want to follow the Ming Dynasty." Gongsun Zan sighed.
"Why, have I owed you anything in the past few years? Or have I owed something to your brothers in Changshan County? Or is there something I did wrong that made you feel like there is no room for you here?!" Gongsun Zan His voice gradually became louder, and by the end it almost turned into a scolding.
Snapped!
He slammed his hand on the table and said angrily: "Do you still think that Liu Bei is better than me?!"
Zhao Yun was shocked and said quickly: "Master, why did you say this?! Zilong has never had any different intentions!"
"There is no objection. Then tell me, why six captains died in the camp last night, but none of them were direct descendants of your Changshan County?!"
"Zilong just learned about this matter. Please investigate it carefully and then report it to the lord."
"Just learned that? Baima Yi's camp is so tightly guarded. If it weren't for the insiders, how could outsiders do such a thing? As for you going to investigate, I'm afraid you will lead those people to rebel as soon as you go. What can I do? I can tolerate you!" Gongsun Zan said sternly.
"Come here!" he shouted.
Ten soldiers carrying long swords rushed in from outside the door and surrounded Zhao Yun.
"Just go ahead and capture him, don't let me bother you!" Gongsun Zan said.
Zhao Yun sighed. Although he didn't know what happened, his loyalty to Gongsun Zan prevented him from choosing to resist.
Several soldiers tied up Zhao Yun very easily and took him down.
"Send an order to surround the post house and detain Liu Bei and others!" Gongsun Zan said.
"yes!"
Gongsun Zan's mansion began to gather soldiers. According to legend, those few men killed many Yellow Turban troops in Yizhou and made great military exploits. How could they dare to neglect them.
In less than a minute's time, the soldiers gathered together and headed straight to the post house.
