Chapter 1110 Letters in the account, cannons outside the account

"Well, Mr. Dong, you are a guest from afar. Since you are going to see the general, I will make arrangements tomorrow to send you to Jinyang. What do you think?"

When Ran Zhan returned to the camp, he immediately summoned Dong Xu and others, but his attitude was much more friendly. The three envoys looked at each other in confusion, but before the three people could respond, Ran Zhan ordered Dong Xu and others to be brought over. They left and arranged a tent for the three of them to stay.

"At the moment, it seems that the situation is not too bad. As long as we can see General Zhengbei and read out the reward given to him by the court, we will have completed our mission." Dong Xu settled down with his two colleagues and couldn't help but say, "However, Captain Ran is not as difficult to deal with as rumored. It is a blessing among misfortunes."

"I think this is a bit strange." One of his colleagues had a different opinion, "The captain's attitude was very tough before, and it was almost difficult to communicate, but after the messenger came, his attitude immediately changed. It’s changed, and if I’m summoned repeatedly, I’m afraid there might be a problem.”

Another colleague immediately understood the meaning and said: "You mean there is something wrong with the soldiers who came to talk?"

"It's not that they have a problem, it's that there is something wrong with the news that made Ran Zhan's attitude change." The first colleague was talking, but Dong Xu reminded him to keep his voice down, and he immediately lowered his voice, " Yes, I have to keep my voice down, there might be someone outside the tent eavesdropping on what I'm saying."

"Since that's the case, don't think about it so much," Dong Xu said half admonishing, half dissuading, "It's enough to do your own thing well, and don't think about the superfluous things."

When the remaining two heard this, they thought it made sense. The Xuanjia Army was a headache for both clans, so there was no need for pawns like them to add extra trouble to themselves.

After reaching a consensus, the three of them quickly settled down. They did not speculate on why Ran Zhan's attitude had changed, but discussed how to negotiate after meeting Chen Zhi.

"Dong Jun, you are an old subordinate of General Zhengbei. Why don't you contact your former colleagues first? I heard that Jiang Zuo Zhou Ao is very popular with the general. Why not contact him? Let him breathe for the general first, and it will be convenient for us to meet him. .”

Dong Xu's face looked a little unnatural, and he didn't answer immediately. Instead, he began to make calculations.

For Zhou Ao, the special envoy's emotions were very complicated.

When they both belonged to the same yamen, Zhou Ao's status was not as good as Dong Xu's, but now the situation is reversed. When colleagues in the past gathered together, they often mentioned Zhou Ao. Some envied his fortune, while others admired him. Decisive, in comparison, Dong Xu was left out in the cold.

You know, after Chen Zhi and Zhou Ao went north one after another, Dong Xu successfully hosted several Luoyang commentaries, which earned him a lot of praise and became a frequent visitor among his colleagues. However, as time passed, everything was different.

Of course he would have some resistance to Zhou Ao.

However, this mission involves property and life. It would not be right to abandon the shortcut and take the long road because of a little conflict.

So after pondering, Dong Xu decided to be profit-oriented and planned to write a letter to Zhou Ao, first asking this former colleague to say a few good words for him in front of the general, so that when he saw Chen Zhi, he would Convenient to reminisce.

"Now that Mr. Dong has made a decision, let's think about how to write this letter together. It would be best to mention the current situation without being obtrusive, and highlight the old relationship between colleagues without making people feel snobbish. "

"In this case, this letter is not easy to write. It is indeed worthy of careful consideration."

The two colleagues immediately began to advise Dong Xu, and the latter also took it seriously and decided to accept their suggestions and make arrangements for them.

Just as they were still talking here, bursts of noise suddenly came from outside, and then there was a burst of deafening slogans, and then, the squeezing sound of many military boots on the ground came from outside the camp.

Suddenly, the smell of an approaching storm filled the tent. The three people inside could not carefully comprehend the art of letters, so they immediately stood up and went out to find out.

As a result, as soon as the curtain was opened, the first thing that caught the eye was two soldiers wearing black armor. The two men were standing at the door holding long spears. When they saw someone coming out, they immediately went to stop them and said: "In the army, There has been a change, and all the people coming and going are military men. It is better for the gentlemen to stay in the tent to avoid being accidentally injured." "Two soldiers, why are there such movements?" Dong Xu squeezed over, "Could it be that there are thieves and bandits coming to attack? ?" He asked, but what he and his two colleagues were really worried about was that the Xuanjia Army was going to attack the Guanzhong Army in the south, which would be a real disaster.

But the two soldiers said: "We only know the responsibilities of the guards, but we don't know the deployment of the army, so it is difficult to inform them."

"Then I hope it's convenient for you two to let me see Captain Ran and ask him..." Dong Xu said quickly and tried to walk out.

But what greeted him were two spears crossed together - the two soldiers stretched out their spears at the same time, blocking the way of the three men.

The specially forged spear tip shone with a heart-stopping luster under the light.

"Please three of you stay here honestly, we are also ordered to protect you, we can't let you three leave!"

Hearing these words, no matter how dull the three of them were, they could tell that the sudden change in the Xuanjia Barracks might really be heading towards the situation they were most worried about.

"Don't you know my identity?" In his anxiety, Dong Xu couldn't care about anything else, "I am an old subordinate of General Zhengbei..."

The two soldiers frowned, and one of them said: "I hope the envoy understands the truth. It is the general's subordinates who are issuing orders now."

These words made the three of them lose their temper.

Isn't it?You are just an old general, and now you have nothing but some dispensable favors, but Ran Zhan is a general that General Zhengbei values ​​very much now, and it is clear at a glance which is more important.

In desperation, the three of them had to retreat, but their worries only increased.

"What should I do now?"

The two colleagues were at a loss.

Dong Xu also had no idea. He just wanted to comfort him out of his duty as an envoy. But before he could speak, he heard a sudden "rumbling" sound coming from outside, followed by the sound of the ground. tremor.

In an instant, the three of them thought of the rumored weapon of the Xuan Jia Army.

"Could it be that the artillery thing was even used? Why is it like this?"

Suddenly, the three of them were like ants on a hot pot. They were impatient and worried, and finally rushed out again. They even planned to forcefully break through the obstruction, but they were no match for the trained soldiers and were eventually stopped.

But when the three of them came out of the tent again, they heard the sound of killing from the distance!

 Thanks to "mnkhfhks", "Qu Jinyuan", "Cangshan covered with snow, bright candle in the sky" and "book friend 20170922155010803" for their rewards!
