Chapter 277: Reasons for Sending Troops

"What? What did you say?"

Gongsun Chan stared at his cronies in disbelief. Perhaps thinking that he had misheard, Gongsun Chan couldn't help but ask again in a loud voice. However, seeing the same incredulous look of his cronies, he still nodded his head dryly, and Gongsun Chan finally dared to confirm that he had heard correctly.

Gongsun Zhan really couldn't believe that Dahong and a dozen of their Yellow Turban Commanders led more than 100,000 Yellow Turban Army, but they were repelled by the 3,000 defenders of Nanpi City. Even if the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army is scum, can't the number of hundreds of thousands make up for it?

The black-robed man glanced at Gongsun Chan with contempt, but he was so excited when he heard such news, how could he achieve such a big thing?

Of course, the black-robed people were also shocked in their hearts. However, he had already tempered his state of mind to the point where Mount Tai collapsed before him and his face did not change, and such news could not make the black-robed man change color in the slightest. It won't be like Gongsun Chan roaring in a hurry, since things have happened, what's the use of being excited at this time?

"General Gongsun doesn't need to be so excited, and listen to the specific situation. ”

The black-robed man stopped Gongsun Zhan's forced gaze and said lightly.

"That's what the gentleman said!"

Gongsun Zhan realized that he was too excited just now, sat in his position, stared at his cronies with his eyes, and pretended to be calm: "You tell me the situation on the battlefield in detail, and you must not hide it at all." ”

"Yes, my lord!"

This cronie did not hesitate, and carefully told the battle situation in Jiazi Mountain. Falling from the boulder, the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army were cut into two sections, and then the 50,000 Yellow Turban Army faced the 2,700 infantry and 300 cavalry of Nanpi City, as well as Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Blowing Xue and other strong strength without omission.

"Hmph, crossing the valley and not sending spies to inspect, what a bunch of waste. ”

Knowing that it was so easy to fall into the enemy's ambush, Gongsun Chan snorted coldly, and glanced lightly at the black-robed man. The meaning is very clear, and it seems that the person who is saying that you are really stupid enough. However, Gongsun Chan didn't say much. He knows the intelligence of the black-robed people, and those shuai are stupid and have nothing to do with the black-robed people. Now that he said that, he was only complaining slightly.

The black-robed man naturally understood what Gongsun Chan meant, and he didn't get angry because of this, after all, those Qu Shuai were indeed stupid enough. No spies were sent to inspect the terrain, and they deserved to be ambushed by the enemy.

Of course, Gongsun Chan and the black-robed man didn't know that in fact, those Qu Shuai had sent spies to inspect. It's just that the Yellow Turban Army is not a regular army after all, and it can't do the same thing as the army. Moreover, because they had a huge numerical advantage, and except for a few people who knew that their target was Nanpi City, most of the Yellow Turban Army did not know that they were going to capture Nanpi City. Therefore, how could they carefully probe the situation in Jiazi Mountain without knowing it?

"Sir, in your opinion, what should we do now?"

After the anger, Gongsun Zhan still asked the black-robed man for a plan very sincerely. Although the situation in front of them was different from what they expected, Gongsun Chan still believed that the black-robed man had a way to solve it.

Gongsun Zhan's original purpose was the same as Guo Jia expected, to let the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army take Bohai County first. Later, Gongsun Zhan sent troops to Bohai County on the grounds of quelling the chaos, and when the time came, he took Bohai County in one fell swoop, and by the way, turned hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops into soldiers. Then he pointed the soldiers to Yecheng, and the battle of Jizhou was just to train these hundreds of thousands, and those who survived could become a qualified soldier in the future. As for those who died, for Gongsun Chan and the black-robed people, they were just scum to be eliminated.

If you want to compete for the world, you can't rely on a group of chaotic peasants to do it, only after experiencing the tempering of blood and fire can you be the real elite.

In fact, Gongsun Zan can also take the line of Julu County and Guangping Kingdom when attacking Yecheng. However, the line in Julu County has been arranged for a long time, so it doesn't have to be that line. And another reason why Gongsun Zhan wanted to take Bohai County was naturally because of Yuan Chang.

When Gongsun Chan attacked Jizhou, he was scolded by Yuan Chang for being bloody, but Gongsun Chan wrote down Yuan Chang. Now attacking Jizhou, of course, Yuan Chang will not be spared. When he takes Bohai County, he will let Yuan Chang know how powerful he is. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, or the black-robed people are very good, but they don't know that Yuan Chang has top strategists like Guo Jia, as well as fierce generals like Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.

The black-robed man did not immediately answer Gongsun Zhan's question, but frowned and pondered for a moment, then exhaled heavily, and said excitedly: "It seems that there are high-ranking people in Bohai County, and when there are only three thousand defenders in Nanpi City, they dare to go out of the city to ambush, interesting, really interesting, haha!"

Gongsun Zhan looked at the black-robed man in confusion, I really didn't know how he could still laugh at this moment.

Now that the Yellow Turban Army has failed to capture Bohai County, Gongsun Zhan has no reason to send troops. If he attacked Bohai County for no reason, it would definitely damage his prestige, after all, now that the titular Son of Heaven is still alive, some face still has to be given to the imperial court.

"General Gongsun has no need to worry, although they failed to capture Bohai County, we also have a reason to send troops. ”

Looking at Gongsun Zhan's anxious expression, the black-robed man sneered in his heart, a reckless man is a reckless man, and this world still depends on them literati to seize it.

"Oh, what does the gentleman think, a certain ear is listening!"

Gongsun Zhan knew that the black-robed man would not let himself down, but he didn't expect to have an idea so soon.

A smile appeared on his face hidden under the black robe, and he said lightly: "General Gongsun, our men and horses just passed by that road and did not attack Nanpi City, so Nanpi City attacked our army for no reason, can't we fight back?"

The smile on Gongsun Zhan's face suddenly froze, he didn't expect the black-robed man to say such a sentence. At that moment, Gongsun Zhan hesitated and said, "Sir, they are yellow turbans after all, and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court don't seem to need a reason to attack them, right?"

The black-robed people sighed in their hearts, they were really not ordinary stupid teammates. However, now the two are also partners, and Gongsun Chan has no ambition to compete for the world, he just wants to follow Huo Quai's example to sweep away the alien race, which is why the black-robed man will find Gongsun Chan as an ally. So, the black-robed man suppressed the thoughts in his heart and patiently explained to Gongsun Zhan.

"General Gongsun, who has told the Taishou of Bohai County that they are the Yellow Turban Army? Do they have any evidence? Our men and horses have never disturbed the people or plundered the city along the way, but they have only passed by. Although they used to be the Yellow Turban Army, under the righteousness of General Gongsun, they have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and are ready to join General Gongsun's troops and become a soldier of the imperial court, serving the country and guarding the territory, isn't this okay?"

Gongsun Zhan's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the words of the black-robed man, why didn't he think of this.

That's right, although the Yellow Turban Army is going to attack Nanpi City, but they have not yet moved, what reason does Yuan Chang have for saying that they want to attack Nanpi City and then attack them? Could it be that because they used to be the Yellow Turban Army, can't they change their ways? As for whether anyone believes this reason, Gongsun Chan doesn't care at all. He just needed a reason to attack Nanpi City so that he could be on the side of righteousness, and that was enough.

"Mr. Gaocai, a certain service!"

Gongsun Chan clenched his fists at the black-robed man and praised him without hesitation.

The black-robed man looked indifferent, and he didn't feel any smugness because of Gongsun Zhan's praise. It's not that he's too powerful, it's that his teammates are too stupid, and this kind of strategy is not worthy of his pride at all.

"Someone!"

Gongsun Chan solemnly shouted outside the tent, and when the two guards appeared in front of him, Gongsun Chan ordered in a loud voice: "Order the three armies, make a meal tomorrow, and arrive at Nanpi City at noon." There must be no mistakes, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law. ”

"Whoa!"

The two guards answered in a loud voice, and then trotted out of Gongsun Zhan's tent to deliver Gongsun Zhan's order.

"Sir, I wish you to take Nanpi City as soon as possible, you and I will drink this cup to the full!"

"!"

"Haha!"
