LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 200: Taking refuge with the eldest brother Zhang Zhao, Tao Qian dies
A month passed by in a flash.
In this month, Cao Cao led another army, divided into two groups, attacking Donghai and Xiaopei. However, under the strict defense of Tao Qian and Gu Rubing, they all failed in the end!
Then, the two armies began to confront each other again.
Xuzhou was at a stalemate, but the situation in Youzhou suddenly attracted the attention of the entire network and caused an uproar!
There is no other reason!
Yuan Shaona used Xu You's plan to successfully trap and kill Gongsun Zan!
Originally, Gongsun Zan lost the Bohai Sea and cut off the connection with Qingzhou, but Yuan Shao sent Zhang He and Gao Lan to lead heavy troops to garrison in the Bohai Sea in order to prevent Qingzhou from attacking the Bohai Sea.
As a result, Yuan Shao had much fewer troops to fight against Gongsun Zan, and Gongsun Zan was not a vegetarian. Between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan actually had the advantage!
But at this juncture, Xu You came up with a plan, and Qu Yi led his troops to make a detour and make a surprise attack, and deliberately spread the news to let Gongsun Zan know about it.
Gongsun Zan fell into the trap and led his troops to ambush Qu Yi. Qu Yi was defeated and retreated. Then Gongsun Zan immediately led his troops to pursue him. He was ambushed and Gongsun Zan was defeated and killed.
The once arrogant Lord of Liaodong was defeated and died so quickly, which shocked all netizens!
After all, once upon a time, when Yuan Shao first occupied Jizhou, Gongsun Zan took the initiative to send troops to attack Yuan Shao. The strength of the army was so strong that no one dared to attack. The white horse's loyal followers made countless Jizhou soldiers invincible, and countless prefectures and counties in Jizhou surrendered without a fight!
However, no one expected that Yuan Shao would be able to defeat Gongsun Zan and push Cao Cao back to Youzhou in the Battle of Jieqiao!
However, as Liu Bei supported Youzhou, Cao Cao was defeated, and Yuan Shao could only return to Jizhou. Even if Yuan Shao found an opportunity this time and captured Bohai County in one fell swoop, Gongsun Zan had recovered his strength after more than a year of rest. At one point, they even wanted to take back the Bohai Sea.
To everyone's surprise, Yuan Shao finally decided the outcome in one battle and used Xu You's plan to trap and kill Gongsun Zan!
The name Yuan Shao instantly surpassed Cao Cao and Liu Bei in popularity across the Internet and became the focus of all netizens' attention!
"Gongsun Zan died like this, so bald. I originally thought that Gongsun Zan had a sudden change and wanted to beat Yuan Shao up."
"There is no way. Gongsun Zan has just killed Liu Yu and completely occupied Youzhou. He also needs to win battles to prove himself. In the end, he won a few battles and just drifted away. Obviously the adviser said that it was not advisable to pursue him."
"Not to mention anything else, after Liu Caoxiao is finished, we can join forces to fight Yuan Shao. Gongsun Zan will fight alone. The scars are really healed and the pain is forgotten."
"Arrogant soldiers will be defeated. Gongsun Zan is really too arrogant. He seeks his own death. No one else can blame him."
"You are a typical judge of heroes based on success or failure. This time Gongsun Zan did defeat Yuan Shao several times with hard power, right?"
"Since Gongsun Zan was defeated and died, it won't be long before Youzhou is bulldozed by Yuan Shao. After taking Youzhou, Yuan Shao is really going to take off!"
The barrage in the live broadcast room continued to surge, and everyone was extremely shocked by the death of Gongsun Zan. There was quite a feeling that things are unpredictable and life is unpredictable!
Then, not long after, another major event drew the attention of all netizens back to Xuzhou!
Tao Qian fell seriously ill and died, and Tao Shang inherited the position of Xuzhou Mu!
Just as Gu Rubing expected, since Tao Shang had the intention to take over Xuzhou, Tao Qian did not give Xuzhou three times like in history. Before passing away, Tao Qian still handed over Xuzhou to his son.
After Cao Cao learned of Tao Qian's death, he began to attack Donghai fiercely, but Gu Rubing immediately sent Zhang Fei to support Donghai, blocking Cao's army's offensive again.
Another month passed. Cao Cao's army was short of food and could not attack Xuzhou for a long time. He finally chose to retreat!
[You have completed the exclusive mission "Rescue the Difficult" and received the reward "Benevolent and Righteous Division" in all parts. Please check the unit panel for details! 】
After learning that Cao Cao had withdrawn his troops, Gu Rubing finally heard the mechanical sound of the completion of his exclusive mission!
Gu Rubing immediately opened the unit panel and checked the characteristics of this unit called "The Division of Benevolence and Righteousness".
…………
[Unit Characteristics: Teacher of Benevolence and Righteousness! (This feature cannot be obtained through normal means)]
[Introduction: Use the teacher of benevolence and righteousness to defeat the cruel people! 】
[Effect: The basic attributes of the unit are +10%, and the benefit effect of the strategy is +20%. When the commander is Liu Bei, this effect is doubled, and all attributes of the unit are +400%! 】
…………
After seeing the effect of the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, Gu Rubing couldn't help but breathe faster!
Basic attributes +10%, and the benefit effect of strategy +20%!
Don't underestimate the mere 10% bonus. You must know that this is a bonus to basic attributes. All bonuses are based on basic attributes!
The reason why Guan Yu's "Tiger Might" characteristic is strong is that this characteristic can reduce the enemy's basic attributes. As the saying goes, it is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt him. To reduce the basic attributes is to cut off a finger!
Therefore, if the basic attributes of the first part are increased, as long as the bonus is sufficient, it can even be 1000% higher than the full attributes of the previous part, or even more!
More importantly, this effect has additional bonuses when the commander-in-chief of the three armies is himself, all bonuses are doubled, and there is an additional bonus of +400% of all attributes of the part!
You know, this characteristic is possessed by all the soldiers of Gu Rubing's tribe, which is equivalent to improving Gu Rubing's commanding ability in disguise!
All I can say is that it is indeed an exclusive mission!
As long as it is a reward for an exclusive mission, Gu Rubing has never been disappointed!
"Lord, there is someone outside the house asking to see you!"
At this moment, the bodyguard suddenly walked into the house, cupped his hands to Gu Rubing and said: "This person's surname is Zhang, his given name is Zhao, and his courtesy name is Zibu. He claims to have been rescued by the lord before. He is grateful and comes here to express his gratitude."
"Zhang Zibu?"
Hearing this, Gu Rubing's eyes lit up and he immediately said overjoyed: "Please come quickly!"
"yes!"
The bodyguard accepted the order and turned to leave.
Soon, the guards walked into the house with a middle-aged man in his late forties.
Zhang Zhao has a dignified appearance and is quite majestic. He is wearing a long robe with a curly train and a crown on his head. When he saw Gu Rubing, he immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Zhao pays homage to the envoy!"
"No need to be polite."
Looking at Zhang Zhao, Gu Rubing's eyes flashed.
The eldest brother of Jiangdong is finally here!
Gu Rubing suppressed his inner emotions and said with a smile: "Sir's name has been heard even in Qingzhou. I haven't had a chance to visit him for a long time, but today I finally got to see him!"
"It's just a false name that makes your words harsh."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhao immediately raised his hands and said, "Fortunately, the envoy came to your aid. Zhao originally wanted to come and thank the envoy as soon as possible. However, the war on the front line was urgent, so he had to wait for Cao Cao to withdraw his troops before coming to visit. I hope you will forgive me." .”
"It doesn't matter."
Gu Rubing shook his head and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Mr. Tao Gong imprisoned Mr. Zibu before. After Tao Gong died of illness, Mr. Tao Gong still wrote a eulogy for Tao Gong. The eulogy Mr. Tao wrote was prepared and read several times, which is worth reading. It is said that the literary talent is outstanding!”
"It made you laugh."
Zhang Zhao shook his head, cupped his hands and said, "Although Mr. Tao imprisoned me, when he was the shepherd of Xuzhou, Mr. Tao loved the people like a son and had no wrongdoing with the people. Hearing that Mr. Tao passed away from illness, Zhao naturally mourned him."
"It turns out that sir also has a heart that cares about the country and the people."
A hint of emotion appeared on Gu Rubing's face, he cupped his hands and said: "The world is in chaos now, and Bei Guang is looking for talented people, just to help the Han Dynasty and wipe out the heroes. Bei has heard of Sir's name for a long time. Since Sir, he has this ambition , why not support the Han Dynasty together with Bei?"
"this……"
Zhang Zhao was stunned, obviously not expecting that Gu Rubing would greet him as soon as he saw him, and a trace of hesitation suddenly appeared on his face.
"I hope you will give me some advice, sir!"
Gu Rubing stood up, struck while the iron was hot, and said to Zhang Zhao: "I have known your name for a long time. If I can get your help, I can accomplish great things!"
"Zhao's talents are sparse and his knowledge is shallow, and he is afraid of betraying the great trust entrusted to him by the envoy."
After hearing what Gu Rubing said, Zhang Zhao finally stopped refusing and said, "If you don't give up, Zhao is willing to follow you and do your best from now on!"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Zhao raised his hands to Gu Rubing and said, "Zhang Zhao pays homage to the lord!"
Afterwards, Zhang Zhao bowed deeply to Gu Rubing.
And Zhang Zhao's attribute panel finally appeared in front of Gu Rubing's eyes!
