"Attack the Yellow Scarf Bandits' main camp on the southern front?"

Zhao Yun was slightly shocked, but then he suddenly realized something and said, "This is your real plan? Using Generals Guan and Zhang as bait so that I can succeed in one battle? "His voice carried a trace of coldness.

Bai Xiaowen scratched the back of his head. "This is actually a plan that my sister came up with. She was worried that with her low strength, her words wouldn't be taken seriously, so I relayed it to her."

"I've already guessed that," Zhao Yun said in an indifferent voice, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. "Please go back. I'll report this to the lord and ask him to make a decision. "

Notification:

"Liu Bei's army general Zhao Yun's favorability towards you has decreased. Current favorability level: Indifferent."

Li Shuyi's expression changed slightly. Clearly, he had also received the same notification. Zhao Yun had already stood up, his expression solemn. He had no intention of continuing to communicate with the two 'siblings'.

Bai Xiaowen snorted heavily. "My sister has good intentions, yet General Zhao is so cold. Isn't that unreasonable?"

Zhao Yun's figure paused. He looked at Li Shuyi, his gaze cold. "The war is imminent, yet your sister has hidden her own selfish motives. She also concealed some of her plans. Not distinguishing between public and private interests is disloyal. Using Generals Guan and Zhang as bait to help you succeed in your own merit is disloyal! Please forgive me for not being able to agree with such disloyal and unjust actions! "

"Disloyal and unjust?!" Bai Xiaowen shouted, "Then I'd like to ask you one thing. What benefits does my adopted sister bring to herself by doing this? Who is she helping?"

Zhao Yun froze.

Bai Xiaowen said coldly, "Back in Xuzhou, my sister had already heard of Changshan's Zhao Zilong's fame. On the Youzhou battlefield, General Zhao repelled Wen Chou in the first battle and saved Gongsun Zan's life. Why did Gongsun Zan assign you to the rear when he was arranging his troops? Gongsun Zan's front army was routed to the rear. If General Zhao didn't kill Qu Yi and break through the encirclement, would Gongsun Zan's head still be there? But even with such meritorious service, General's position in Gongsun Zan's army has never been promoted. Why is that? "

Zhao Yun was silent for a moment, then said, "My lord has the ambition to help the world, and the ability to see through people is not something that Gongsun Zan can compare to."

"Then why did I see General Zhao in the Lord's tent during the meeting today? You have the courage of a great general, but you have to bow down to a group of deputy generals?" Bai Xiaowen quickly asked.

Zhao Yun said, "I have just come under the Lord's banner and have yet to make any contributions. How can I rashly be given the position of Great General?"

"That's right. If you don't strive for merits, how can you be a great general?" Bai Xiaowen said in a deep voice, "My sworn sister's ancestral home is also Zhending of Changshan. Ever since she heard of General Zhao's deeds, she has always admired him and is determined to become a hero like General Zhao! She couldn't bear to see a hero being buried and a warrior suffering, so she asked me to come up with a plan. She wanted General Zhao to make meritorious contributions as soon as possible so that he could stand side by side with Guan and Zhang. "

While Bai Xiaowen was persuading, he was also ridiculing Zhao Yun in his heart. Zhao Yun didn't like to fight for merits, so in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he never had the opportunity to make any contributions. All the merits were taken by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. It was only later when Cao Cao's army went south and Liu Bei abandoned his wife and son at Changban that Zhao Yun had the opportunity to perform. He went in and out seven times to save his master alone.

Zhao Yun fell into silence again. As a general, no matter how indifferent he was, he still had the ambition to gallop on the battlefield and become famous.

Seeing that Zhao Yun's expression was somewhat shaken, Bai Xiaowen finally said, "General Zhao, my sworn sister's southern battle strategy requires someone to act as bait to attract the thief army and someone to act as the main attacking general to attack the main camp. If you say she has selfish motives, then she wants to give the job of bait to Guan and Zhang, and give you the opportunity to make a contribution. However, this selfishness doesn't affect the Lord's strategic goal of defeating the Yellow Turbans at all! "

Zhao Yun gently sighed, shook his head and said, "I still can't sit by and watch Generals Guan and Zhang be trapped and steal merits. I will ask for the Lord's order to rescue Generals Guan and Zhang. If the Lord finds out about your selfishness, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate. It's best you don't mention it to anyone else. I … will pretend I didn't hear it. "

Bai Xiaowen sighed and said, "Attacking the main camp is the way to maximize the benefits. Why is the General limited by small details and turning a blind eye to it?"

Li Shuyi pulled Bai Xiaowen's sleeve, stepped forward and said, "The two of us admire General Zhao's righteousness. However, although you are brave, you are only one person. How can you save Generals Guan and Zhang at the same time? How about this, you go to the southwest sub-camp to rescue General Zhang, and we will go to the southeast sub-camp to rescue General Guan! If General Guan is in trouble, I won't have the face to live. "

Zhao Yun took a deep look at Li Shuyi and said in a deep voice, "Alright. However, you must follow me! "

Li Shuyi revealed a stunned expression. Zhao Yun calmly said, "Your strength is weak. Even if you accompany your brother to the southeast sub-camp, you won't be of much use. I'm keeping you by my side because I don't want you and your brother to have any selfish motives and ruin the Lord's plan! "

Bai Xiaowen understood in his heart that Zhao Yun was still somewhat suspicious of their motives. With his cautious nature, he would naturally want to bring Li Shuyi, a person without any battle prowess, along with him. This could also be considered as a kind of restraint on Bai Xiaowen.

"My sworn sister is with the General. What if she encounters danger?" Bai Xiaowen purposely added.

Zhao Yun straightened his back and walked toward Liu Bei's camp. Finally, he said, "As long as I'm here, no one can harm a single hair on her head."

Bai Xiaowen was relieved to hear this guarantee. Zhao Yun was able to enter and exit Cao Cao's elite army seven times while carrying the infant Ah Dou. This time, he was going to reinforce Zhang Fei and break into the sub-camp of the Yellow Turban Bandits. Protecting Li Shuyi was a piece of cake.

Notification:

[Liu Bei's Army General Zhao Yun's favorability towards you has increased. Current favorability level: Normal.]

Bai Xiaowen sighed and looked at Zhao Yun who was walking ahead. He whispered to Li Shuyi, "His favorability has returned?"

Li Shuyi's expression was somewhat dazed. He subconsciously shook his head.

While Bai Xiaowen was puzzled, Li Shuyi came back to his senses and whispered, "It's not returned … … it's increased greatly! I just received a notification. Zhao Yun's favorability towards me has increased to 100%! "

Bai Xiaowen's eyes lit up. "Very good. The fact that his favorability did not continue to increase to 'Friend' means that Zhao Yun is still suspicious. Once we rescue Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and defeat the Yellow Turban Bandits in the south, his suspicions will be dispelled. You will definitely be able to receive his guidance. "

Li Shuyi sighed and whispered, "Then what about you? Do you still want to develop Guan Yu's line? "
