Chapter 40: The Mad Dog and the Wolf

Qingzhou's crusade against the Yellow Turban was extremely easy for Gongsun Zhan...... After Bai gave Yanbei, Gongsun Du was extremely cautious about any war, because he did not want to suffer the same humiliation as that defeat. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He used his first life to achieve the prestige of the famous general of Youzhou in Yanbei.

Every time he thought of this, Gongsun Chan hated the root of his teeth, he hated Yanbei's cunning during that night attack, and he also hated the arrogance he showed in that battle.

300,000 Qingzhou troops gathered and planned to go to Jizhou Black Mountain to join Zhang Yan. Now that Zhang Yan has become an official recognized by the imperial court, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban does not have this ability, so they plan to take advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to collect their baggage and defect to Zhang Yan, which is better than not having a foundation to settle down in Qingzhou.

As a result, at the junction of Hebei and Qingdao, a large number of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were attacked by Gongsun Zhan with sudden cavalry when crossing the Yellow River, beheading 8,000, and more than 10,000 people drowned in the Yellow River. The huge Qingzhou Yellow Turban was suddenly frustrated, and in the face of Gongsun Zhan, who was guarding the riverbank, he only scared off the thieves with a mere number of soldiers, so that all the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans who could not raise their courage scattered in the Qingzhou countryside.

It's a pity that a group of bad-headed Kwantung princes blocked the road to Luoyang, and the court's hearing and hearing were blinded...... Otherwise, what a great feat this is for Gongsun Zhan!

It's all to blame on those stupid thieves, Gongsun Zhan can't figure out what those straw bales think, so he has to raise the banner of King Qin to crusade against Dong Zhuo, isn't Shixun Shilu's 2,000 stone taels delicious?

In fact, when Gongsun Chan saw Dong Yuwen at the beginning, he didn't refuse in his heart. Although the water to fight Dong is muddy, if General Baima goes, he will definitely be able to occupy a place and defeat Dong Zhuo, which will make a meritorious achievement from time to time. As for Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Dai, and Zhang Miao, Gongsun Zhan didn't pay any attention to them.

Perhaps worse than the prestige Gongsun Bogui, than the war?

Just kidding, Gongsun Bogui alone can beat them all over the ground to find teeth!

The key is that these allies are too unreliable. A group of things who only know the art of power, go to wrestle with the world's leading generals like Dong Zhuo, and the results of the war are self-evident before they have even begun.

Gongsun Chan looked at the text at that time, and thought of the appearance of these celebrities who could only talk and cry for their fathers and mothers.

Even he originally planned to clean up the gang of bandits in Qingzhou, if the so-called Kwantung princes were beaten by Dong Zhuo and cried all the way, he didn't mind cleaning them all from east to west.

But on the contrary, Yan Bei and Sun Jian are the two second poles!

The good situation just let these two guys and Dong Zhuo play an evenly matched, but it denied Gongsun Zhan's chance to watch the show again...... When the war reaches such an extent, it will be almost over, and the Kwantung princes will inevitably bear the disdain of the world because they are cowering, and the two who are fighting to the west will also get the prestige they deserve.

Anyway, the people of the world can't see that Dong Zhuo's relocation is strategically and steadily defeating the coalition forces, and the current situation is that both sides think they have won, what a good situation!

Stop here, Dong Zhuo governs the big court of the world, and the princes of Kwantung regard themselves as small courts, separated by two hundred miles of scorched earth in Luoyang, out of sight and out of mind, how good?

They all got what they wanted.

Despite the fact that Dong was fighting this time, everyone got what they wanted, including Gongsun Zhan.

Originally, our White Horse General worshiped General Fenwu and conferred the title of Hou Ye, which is the result of the imperial court's emphasis on meritorious service! coincided with the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, and 300,000 good heads accepted those grass commanders who did not know the art of war, isn't this a low-hanging fruit?

The result of the battle is also the same as Gongsun Chan thought, it was completely a big victory of Ah Weng beating his son, 20,000 pieces, and beating the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party didn't even dare to return it!

Even if it was ruined by the Kwantung princes' army, in the final analysis, Dong Zhuo's court did not hurt its vitality, and when the Kwantung princes retreated, they would still be rewarded by the court in a few months...... It's just that they don't have Yanbei Sun Jian's two hundred and five in the limelight.

What is the current situation? After this battle, the land of Kanto will inevitably fall into chaos, and the princes of various places will be divided. So what else is there to think about Gongsun Zhan? He had long seen that Liu Yu, who was cowardly and didn't know about military affairs in Youzhou Mansion, was not pleasing to the eye, some time ago there was Yanbei to check and balance, and Gongsun Chan was unwilling to fight to the death with Yanbei who held a strong army, which was no good.

But now the situation is different, Yanbei's generals are in the Central Plains, Liu Yu has lost the talisman surnamed Yan, and the straw bales in the state capital, who is Gongsun Zhan's opponent? Not to mention anything else, first deploy strong troops to block Yanbei's retreat at the turn of Youji, and then coerce Liu Yu to obtain actual control of Youzhou, then you can look to the north, Yuan Shao and Han Fu and others may block it?

When the time comes, what court and Central Plains, those who dare to reach out to him will be counted as one, and all the knives will be chopped off by the dog's paws!

Just when Gongsun Zhan was about to lead the army back to Youzhou to slowly concoct Liu Yu, he received the news that Liu Bei was coming.

"Brother Xuande, don't come unharmed!"

When Gongsun Zhan saw Liu Bei, his face was very affectionate. At the moment, he is full of ambition, so he doesn't care that Liu Bei follows Yanbei to the troubled waters of the Central Plains, for a small role like Liu Bei, the two ends of the first mouse seem normal. However, time will tell who to follow is the choice of providence. Immediately put on a feast and entertain friends.

Liu Bei didn't feel any shame when he went down to escort grain and grass for him and then faced Gongsun Zhan, and left and right Yanbei and Gongsun Zhan didn't tear their faces to fight, which was not a betrayal, so his expression was generous, and he congratulated Gongsun Zhan: "When I came, I heard that my brother broke the yellow scarf, and I came to congratulate him." ”

"Hahaha, let's avoid these lies between you and me!" Gongsun Zhan waved his hand and smiled, and then leaned over with a delicate bronze wine bottle and asked Liu Bei with a smile: "Let's talk about it, the virtuous brother is here as a brother, it is to mention that Ziyan, yes, what is his name Yan Zhongqing now." Is it to pass on the letter for him, or do you plan to do things next to a certain family? ”

Liu Bei's warm smile on his face remained unchanged, he knew that he would be sneered at by Gongsun Chan before he came, and now the situation is just expected, so he smiled and complimented: "Brother is like a god, and I am here to bring a sealed letter to my brother for General Yan." ”

Now it was Gongsun Zhan's turn to be surprised, he originally thought that Liu Bei was seeing that Yanbei couldn't get along in Guanzhong, so he came to him with his tail to ask for an official position, where did he think that he was really a lobbyist for Yanbei. In the end, there is an old friendship, the narrow smile on Gongsun Zhan's face disappeared, and he said to Liu Bei Zhengse: "Brother Xuande, I expect that the Dong Lianjun will soon disperse." Right now, Yan Zhongqing has offended Dong Zhuo, there is no merit in following him, it is better to come to me, you and I brothers work together, not to mention more, even if it is only a captain, it is better than carrying food for that erector, right? ”

On the one hand, Gongsun Chan has affection for Liu Bei in the bottom of his heart, and on the other hand, it involves Gongsun Zhan's plans and ambitions for the future, and his side is really the time to employ people. For Liu Bei's ability, Gongsun Zhan knows the roots, and he is third-rate in war, but his talent in governing a county will not be less, not to mention that he is especially good at gathering the hearts of the people, and he respects the ignorant people wherever he goes.

Overhead Liu Yu, Liu Bei can play a big role!

"I'm afraid this will disappoint Brother Bogui, the teacher is under General Yan's subordinates, and Bei is also ordered to protect him, I'm afraid I won't be able to work with my brother for the time being...... This is really a regret. Liu Bei sighed, and then said to Gongsun Zhan: "The teacher keeps urging General Yan to go west, and General Yan is willing to go west, so this war should drag on until next spring." ”

"Yan Zhongqing still wants to fight?" Gongsun Zhan was speechless, raised his head and drank a wine, and then asked Liu Bei: "Brother Xian, let's be blunt, what does he want to do when he sends you?" Want someone to promise not to attack him from behind? ”

But Gongsun Chan guessed wrong.

"No, General Yan regards his brother as a hero, and thinks that his brother disdains such a thing as a surprise attack behind his back, if it is just like this, he will probably not be sent to the next step." Liu Bei shook his head slowly, and said to Gongsun Zhan: "General Yan wants to invite my brother to send troops to the west and form an alliance to discuss Dong Zhuo. ”

"Yan Er, isn't he crazy?" The expression on Gongsun Zhan's face at this time was extremely exciting, the former enemy actually invited him as a friendly army, and he also hoped to form an alliance with him! Gongsun Chan scolded with a smile: "Was he smashed his head by the defenders' stones when he attacked the revolving gate?" It's a ridiculous joke! ”

After laughing, Gongsun Zhan looked at Liu Bei's appearance of honor and disgrace and felt bored in his heart, and asked with interest: "What does Yan Er think, he wants to form an alliance with a certain family, Xuande should talk to his brother well, it's really interesting." ”

Liu Bei shook his head secretly in his heart, judging from this trivial matter alone, Yan Bei's open-mindedness may not be comparable to Gongsun Zhan's patting. He pulled up his shirt and said to Gongsun Zhan: "General Yan has a saying, although he was an enemy of Brother Bogui, he admires your courage and courage very much, and he is inferior. Forming an alliance with the Kwantung princes is a mad dog leading a lamb, and he is brave in vain. If you form an alliance with your brother, you will be a wolf and a tiger, and you can choose someone to devour. ”

The smile on Gongsun Zhan's face became more and more obvious, and he smiled left and right: "Yan Er still has some eyesight!" But the crusade against Dong Zhuo ...... It's not just eyesight that you need. ”

"That's right, participating in the discussion of Dong at this time is extremely dangerous for my brother." Liu Bei arched his hand and said: "But before that, there were only two generals in the north. But as soon as the world is in chaos, the land of Kanto will be full of generals. At that time, whether it is General Yan or his brother, I am afraid that the land of Kanto will not allow so many generals to make trouble. But if Dong Gongcheng is discussed, in this world, can't the two generals, my brother and Yan Zhongqing, be tolerated? ”

Yanbei's praise made Gongsun Chan happy, what is more rewarding in this world than being recognized by the enemy? But what really moved Gongsun Zhan's heart was Liu Bei's words.

If he turns around and goes north, I am afraid that Gongsun Chan will spend the rest of his life in the land of Kanto with these wolf-hearted gangsters, but if he drives Dong Zhuo away...... Isn't the whole world's military affairs enough to make him excited?
