Mythical Lords of the Three Kingdoms: Invincible from the Bandit

Chapter 213 Gongsun Zan's Recruitment!Negotiation failed!
Under the darkness of night, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

The two armies looked at each other from a distance, and the smoke filled the air.

The two sides confronted each other for a quarter of an hour, but neither made a decision to go to war.

After all, neither Qin Yuan nor Gongsun Zan thought of a decisive battle tonight.

Neither side is fully prepared.

Gongsun Zan only carried a part of the combat arms with him.

At the same time, the strength of the black wolf imperial cavalry and the Qinglong imperial forest army around Qin Yuan easily defeated the [-] Youzhou cavalry just now.

He even captured Gongsun Yue alive, which made Gongsun Zan feel a little tricky.

At this time, Gongsun Zan was not even fully sure that he could completely wipe out the rebels in Pingyun County.

buzzing.

Suddenly, there was a tremor on the ground.

A huge battle beast is coming in the distance.

A silver-ranked siege vehicle.

Bronze catapult.

Especially the siege chariot, as a kind of heavy siege equipment, can not only be used for siege, but the power it can exert on the battlefield is very terrifying.

The four sides of the siege chariot are gears formed by sharp blades, which can cut off the body or armor of any soldier under high-speed rotation, and can cause huge casualties to the enemy just by rampaging on the battlefield.

Not to mention the continuous crossbow and giant crossbow in the middle, as well as the huge metal pendulum, which can cause huge damage to enemies in the range, even generals cannot withstand such an attack.

Hundreds of siege tanks approached slowly like giant war beasts.

Under the dark night, the enemy army could not see the whole picture of the siege chariots, but they could see monsters with a height of seven or eight meters approaching, bringing them

Great sense of oppression.

"Gongsun Zan, if you want to fight, fight, don't be a mother-in-law!"

Qin Yuan looked directly at Gongsun Zan.

The arrival of the siege chariot made Qin Yuan full of confidence.

Before, what Qin Yuan was most afraid of was the charge of Baima Yicong's cavalry.

Even a shield wall defense line composed of strong shield fighters may not be able to stop them.

Once they break through the line of defense, no amount of troops under their command will help.

Qin Yuan often led the black wolf imperial cavalry to charge into battle, and he knew very well how destructive an unrestricted cavalry could cause.

This is also what Qin Yuan fears most about Gongsun Zan.

But now, hundreds of siege vehicles formed an invincible front with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

Even if an elite like Baima Yicong dared to hit the siege chariot head-on, he would be cut to death by the sharp blade.

No matter how powerful Baima Yicong was, he was still made of flesh and blood.

The siege chariot is a machine made of heavy metals such as refined iron, refined steel, and black iron.

Among them, the refined iron needed for manufacturing requires [-] units alone.

Among other things, the entire siege vehicle weighed hundreds of thousands of catties alone, and this tonnage was beyond the reach of cavalry.

"General, beware of fraud!"

All the generals around Gongsun Zan showed expressions of surprise.

After all, these siege vehicles have weird shapes and are really unique.

But it has to be said that such a huge siege machine is extremely rare.

War weapons such as chariots are more lethal than cavalry.

Before the appearance of the siege chariot, they may have a [-]% chance of choosing to go to war.

Even if they can't win, they don't worry about causing too many casualties.

The darkness of the night, and the flatness of the plains, favored them.

But when the siege chariot appeared, even Gongsun Zan retreated in his heart.

"Qin Yuan, this general is under the order of the imperial court. No matter what, I will definitely put down the rebels in Pingyun County!"

"Although you were born as a bandit, you have never done any serious evil, even if you occupied the city by force, you have never taken anything or oppressed the common people!"

"You are still young, I will give you a chance to surrender, I will report to the court to pardon you, and even allow you to follow me, reuse it, and make great achievements!"

"Being a traitor is bound to end badly. Think about it!"

Gongsun Zan shouted at Qin Yuan. "Today, although I have only 50 cavalry under my command, it does not mean that I only have these troops. If you are stubborn, you will face [-] troops head-on! Don't think that relying on your hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, You can fight against this general, against this great Han court!"

Gongsun Zan's sudden persuasion to surrender surprised Qin Yuan.

It may be a good thing for the imperial court to recruit security.

In Qin Yuan's previous plan, he had originally thought about accepting the imperial court or government's offer.

It's a pity that Gongsun Fu at that time rejected Qin Yuan's proposal.

Unexpectedly, before the decisive battle started, Gongsun Zan would take the initiative to ask Qin Yuan about recruiting security.

This is not like Gongsun Zan's character.

Moreover, even though he put down the rebellion in Pingyun County in this way, his meritorious service will be greatly reduced, and even the court will not have any rewards.

There may be two reasons why Gongsun Zan changed his mind.

One is that his cousin Gongsun Yue is in Qin Yuan's hands.

Compared with military exploits, he valued Gongsun Yue's life and death more.

If Qin Yuan is pushed into a hurry, there is no guarantee that he will kill Gongsun Yue.

The other was Qin Yuan's army power, which was indeed beyond Gongsun Zan's expectations.

Whether it was the Qinglong Imperial Forest Army, the Black Wolf Emperor's Cavalry, or this batch of war machines, Gongsun Zan was afraid.

It is not impossible to take down Qin Yuan, but it requires a huge price.

For all these reasons, Gongsun Zan temporarily changed his mind.

As for the possibility that Gongsun Zan might deceive Qin Yuan, the possibility is not great.

In the era of the Han Dynasty, commitment and loyalty were very important.

Since Gongsun Zan dared to say it, he would definitely do it.

Not that any of Gongsun Zan's promises will be fulfilled.

It's just that compared to solving a Qin Yuan, it's not worth Gongsun Zan's ruining his own reputation.

Once this thing is gone, it will be very difficult to build it up again. The future counselors of famous generals will basically not seek refuge with Gongsun Zan.

Even the generals in the army will doubt Gongsun Zan's character, integrity and prestige.

"Master Qin, I think Gongsun Zan's proposal should be carefully considered!"

At this time, the high-level members of the player forces showed surprise.

If they accept the imperial court's offer, this is undoubtedly the best way out for them.

After all, although the current imperial court is weak, it is still dominated by the big man.

Acting with the imperial court will definitely not end well.

As Gongsun Zan said, he did not only have [-] cavalry under his command.

Once a direct battle with Qin Yuan, 15 cavalry is not enough, then [-]!

If 15 is not enough, then 50!
Even if Qin Yuan completely defeated Gongsun Zan, the imperial court would definitely not sit idly by, and might even mobilize troops from various prefectures and counties, and even the Zhili Central Army to put down the rebellion!
The longer this battle lasts, the greater the impact will be.

Unless Qin Yuan can have the strength to fight against the entire Han Dynasty, he will always perish one day.

Even the Yellow Turban Rebellion that swept through the Eight States was eventually suppressed by the court.

Of course, they may not be able to go against the entire Han Dynasty, or when Youzhou sends troops from various counties, it may be over.

Therefore, surrendering to Gongsun Zan is the best choice.

After all, in the future, Gongsun Zan will be a vassal, and when he is the most powerful, he will have territories all over the four northern states.

Even if the players want to join these princes now, they may not accept it!
"That's right, Lord Qin, behind Gongsun Zan is the court, we can't be his opponents!"

"It doesn't make any sense to continue fighting this battle!"

"Not as good."

Man Tianxing and others looked at Qin Yuan.

Among these armies, [-] are from the player coalition.

Qin Yuan has not expressed any attitude yet, but these players can't wait to take their positions.

Moreover, if it wasn't for the alliance with Qin Yuan, if Gongsun Zan sent out an invitation to the players, the players would probably have already fallen into Gongsun Zan's arms.

But now, we still have to respect Qin Yuan's decision.

"You all think so?"

Qin Yuan looked at everyone coldly.

Unexpectedly, these players were so weak.

Of course, this is no wonder to them, after all, no one knows that continuing to be a rebel will not end well.

It's just that their attitude changed too quickly.

If it wasn't for Qin Yuan's confidence that he could control the army under their command, it is estimated that once he raised the idea of ​​opposing, these players would immediately rebel.

No wonder Gongsun Zan is able to know the movements of the player's coalition forces like the palm of his hand.

These players are all fools.

It is estimated that many players have secretly taken refuge in Gongsun Zan.

"Master Qin, let us discuss what you think, we are all allies after all!"

President Guanghui said. "Our hundreds of thousands of troops will definitely advance and retreat with you!"

It seems to be respecting Qin Yuan's decision.

In fact, it implies a threat.

The hundreds of thousands of troops may not be the opponent of Qin Yuan's army.

But once he rebelled, it would deal a heavy blow to Qin Yuan.

On the other side, Gongsun Zan's mouth curled up involuntarily.

Originally, he only wanted to recruit Qin Yuan, that is, the force of Qingfengzhai.

He has no intention of letting go of the player coalition.

After all, recruiting Qin Yuan is a respect for Qin Yuan's strength, and Qin Yuan did not commit any serious crimes.

The cities captured by Qin Yuan did not cause large-scale bloodshed, and even took the initiative to accept nearly a million refugees during the outbreak of the rebellion.

All these materials were collected by Gongsun Zan's intelligence network.

On the other hand, the player's coalition army is doing all kinds of evil, burning, killing and looting.

In order to search for money, no matter whether it is a wealthy businessman or a commoner, they have not let it go.

It can be said that the two important classes, the generals and the common people, have been severely offended.

The lives that died at the hands of players are countless.

Most of the displaced refugees are caused by the player's coalition forces.

If it is about rebels, these players are all big devils, and their crimes cannot be pardoned.

So Gongsun Zan can let Qin Yuan go, but he will never let these player groups go.

Because of the crimes they committed, and because Gongsun Zan did not let go of his military exploits in suppressing the rebels, each of these players is a walking meritorious service.

Of course, although Gongsun Zan didn't mean it in the first place.

But when he found out that Qin Yuan might even break with the player group because of his words, he didn't specifically explain this.

"The rebellion in Pingyun County was not caused by me, Qingfeng Village!"

Qin Yuan ignored the player group and looked at Gongsun Zan. "It's all because of the government!"

Even in my heart, I have been completely disappointed with these players.

Although it is recruiting, let's at least have some negotiations first.

Before the talk even started, internal strife started.

It is simply unusable.

"I can accept the imperial court's offer."

"However, I also have three requests!"

"First, Pingyun County remains in its original state and is managed by the original county magistrate!"

"Secondly, my Qingfengzhai army has become the county soldiers of Pingyun County, shouldering the heavy responsibility of Pingyun County's law and order!"

"The third point, in exchange, I am willing to let go of General Gongsun Yue, so as to resolve the grievances between our two sides, and treat it as a misunderstanding!"

Qin Yuan said.

"This is impossible!"

Gongsun Zan refused without thinking.

If Qin Yuan's conditions were followed, wouldn't Pingyun County be allowed to become Qin Yuan's territory.

On the surface, Pingyun County is still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but in fact, Qin Yuan became the local emperor of Pingyun County.

As for the territory of Pingyun County, or the army of Qingfeng Village, they are all under the jurisdiction of Gongsun's family.

Moreover, Pingdong is from the Zhang family in Yuyang, not from the Gongsun family, so it is impossible for him to continue to be the county magistrate.

Especially military power, it is impossible to stay in Qin Yuan's hands, and must accept Gongsun Zan's reorganization.

"The original Pingyun county magistrate rebelled during his tenure and killed countless people. This is a crime of dereliction of duty. This general will send him back to the court for trial!"

"As for Pingyun County, the imperial court will send a new magistrate to manage it!"

"And you follow me and be my lieutenant general. This is how much this general attaches importance to you. Not everyone can be my general's lieutenant general!"

"Another [-] soldiers will be led, and if you make military achievements in the future, you will definitely be rewarded!"

Gongsun Zan stared at Qin Yuan.

In this way, he can firmly control Qin Yuan.

Following Gongsun Zan's side is not only paying attention to and cultivating him, but also monitoring Qin Yuan.

After Qin Yuan robbed the Yun family's caravan before, he treated Yun Chong as a master by letting him stay by his side to prevent him from leaving his side and doing some unpredictable things.

"I can't agree to your request!"

Qin Yuan sneered, "My conditions are only these three points, I will never back down!"

"That's not negotiable!"

A stern look flashed in Gongsun Zan's eyes, and a terrifying murderous aura erupted from his body.

He was a fierce general on the battlefield.

Being able to talk to Qin Yuan so much today is already giving Qin Yuan a lot of face.

In the past, when fighting against foreign races outside the Great Wall, only the butcher's knife was used to deal with foreign races.

"I don't think you're ready to fight tonight. At noon tomorrow, I'll have a decisive battle with you here!"

Qin Yuan said. "If you don't come, I will hang your brother's head on the wall!"

"Okay, okay, it's been many years, and no one has made me so angry!"

"Tomorrow is when your head falls to the ground!"

Gongsun Zan held the gallbladder tightly in his right hand, and with just a light wave, there was a burst of crackling around him.

After speaking, Gongsun Zan led the army and quickly disappeared into the night.

"Mistake, Lord Qin!"

"There's no need to completely tear yourself apart with Gongsun Zan!"

"We can talk slowly!"

Seeing Gongsun Zan leaving angrily, all the players blamed him.

"If you want to talk to Gongsun Zan, then go after him and talk slowly, I will never stop!"

"Otherwise, don't be as annoying as a fly!"

"For flies, I just shoot them to death!"

Qin Yuan swept across a sharp and fierce light.

Suddenly, a terrifying coercion enveloped the players. They felt a mountain-like coercion on their shoulders. The words they were about to say stopped abruptly, and cold sweat oozes from their backs.

When they came to their senses, Qin Yuan had already led the army and left.
