Chapter 167: Gongsun Zhan
"Gongsun Chan is also too murderous, how can I explain this matter to County Lieutenant Zhang and my sister." Ma Qiang grabbed his head and looked at the silk book in his hand in distress.
"Zhang Ju claims to be the Son of Heaven, which is an unforgivable crime, and County Lieutenant Zhang should have been mentally prepared." Duan Ying shook his head.
"Having said that..."Ma Qiang was still a little unacceptable to such a thing as killing the whole clan.
There is no such thing in later generations.
"Ming Gong doesn't like Gongsun Zhan? This person can be described as the first fierce general in Youzhou, if he can be recruited, it will be of great benefit to Ming Gong in the future. Duan Ying has a very good impression of Gongsun Chan in his heart.
Duan Ying felt that Gongsun Zhan was very similar to his father Duan Xi, Duan Xi was also extremely cruel to foreign races, fought more than 180 times in Xiliang, beheaded more than 40,000 levels, and Duan Xi was not polite internally, and the killing of Tai students was one of the reasons why he was killed later.
Moreover, Gongsun Zhan was born as a concubine, and he suffered too much in order to be recognized by the scholars, so he must be full of resentment towards the scholars and is a potential ally.
"I can't say I don't like it, it's just that this person... It was too extreme, and the county magistrate of Hunu County reported that he had plundered the people, and dozens of people in the city were killed and injured. Ma Qiang thought about what Gongsun Chan did, and felt quite contradictory, from the perspective of national righteousness, Gongsun Chan had meritorious service in foreign wars, but for Gongsun Chan internally, he was reckless in his army, so happy, there were no people in his eyes, Qiu Liju and others wanted to surrender Liu Yu in history, but he intercepted and killed the messenger, speaking of which, Liu Yu was better.
In addition, from Gongsun Zhan's later ally Yuan Shu, as well as the joke-like Yi Jing, all prove that he is short-sighted.
Gongsun Chan is a general, but he is definitely not handsome.
"If Ming Gong wants to use it or take it as an arm in the future, he can make friends with righteousness, if he doesn't want to use it, Ying Ke can design to eradicate it." Duan Ying understood that if a fierce general like Gongsun Chan could not be used for himself, he would be a great enemy in the future.
A secluded state can't accommodate two heroes.
"Forget it, let's get in touch first, he said he'll be there tomorrow. Let's go out of the city to greet us, after all, he killed Zhang Ju, which is a great achievement. ”
- The next day
Ma Qiang stood at the head of the city, and saw a puff of smoke and dust in the distance gradually approaching, and when he looked at it, a large piece of white flowers in front of him was Gongsun Zhan's white horse Yicong.
In Fox Slave City before, Ma Qiang didn't have the opportunity to meet Bai Ma Yicong, but this time it was an eye-opener.
Gongsun Zhan's white horse Yicong only had a few dozen people, followed by ordinary cavalry, but in terms of momentum, these dozens of people could be compared with the hundreds of cavalry behind, or even surpassed.
"Let's go, let's go down to the city to meet us." Ma Qiang walked in front, Duan Ying was carried down by the sergeant, and looked at Kou Xian on the side, Kou Xian nodded, and secretly fell behind.
When he came to the city, Gongsun Chan also stopped his horse, and when he saw the city gate open and a group of sergeants poured out, he waved his hand to let the sergeant dismount, and he walked forward with the white horse Yicong.
This is the first time Ma Qiang has seen Gongsun Zhan, and he saw that Gongsun Chan was tall, with white robes and silver armor, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a white face and few beards....
Damn, why is this guy so handsome?
Isn't this really Zhao Yun?
"In person, it's Gongsun Changshi?" Ma Qiang asked first.
Gongsun Zhan saw Ma Qiang's position, recalled Liu Bei's description in the letter in the past, and hugged his fists and bowed, "I have seen Ma Envoy Jun in my humble position!" Thank you for the grace of reinforcing the army to relieve the siege, and now bring 500 elite soldiers to serve! ”
"I am willing to serve the envoy!" The cavalry led by Gongsun Zhan shouted in unison, which made Ma Qiang's eyes light up.
Isn't that sensible? Is there something wrong with the later records?
Ma Qiang hurriedly helped him up, and said with a smile, "I have heard that Xianbei and other clans all say, when you avoid the long history of the white horse, look at it today, it is really elite, the long history kills Zhang Ju, I will report to the court, ask for merit for the king!" ”
Gongsun Chan laughed, his laughter was extremely hearty, and then said, "Ma Envoy Jun is the people of Youzhou, it is really hard, now that the humble post has arrived, the envoy can sit high in Jixian County, watch the humble post capture the flag, and wipe out the thieves!" ”
Wait a minute... What does this mean?
Ma Qiang is not rich in political experience, but he is not stupid, your Gongsun Zhan just came and said that he wanted me to sit in Jixian County, this is to seize military power?
Ma Qiang's face immediately turned cold, and his hand involuntarily let go.
Ma Qiang is indeed inexperienced, if Boss Cao is here, he will definitely smile more sincerely, and then borrow Gongsun Zhan for use.
"Gongsun Changshi's words are bad, my lord broke Changping, defeated Zhang Ju, captured the county, collected Jicheng, although he didn't dare to use troops than Sun Wu, but it was also better than the long history of the fox slave trapped in the first war." Duan Ying couldn't sit still, he thought that Gongsun Chan was just belligerent, but he didn't expect to be so arrogant.
From this moment on, Duan Ying gave up the idea of accepting Sun Zan for Ma Qiang's use, but instead burst out of his heart with a burst of killing intent.
Gongsun Zhan listened to Duan Ying's words, his face suddenly turned red, he wanted to attack, but he saw Ma Qiang's back, holding a long knife in his hand, and his momentum was amazing, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Who is behind the envoy?" ”
"A certain Huang Hansheng, I heard that the white horse has a long history of riding and shooting, and I came to learn one or two!" Huang Zhong took a step forward and came to Ma Qiang's side, and the long knife in his hand faintly sealed all directions of Gongsun Zhan, as if he could slash him at any time.
Gongsun Zhan didn't expect that Ma Qiang, who should be the same as a medical craftsman in Liu Bei's letter, actually had such subordinates, he was knowledgeable, just from Huang Zhong's momentum, he knew that this person was a strong master.
Yes, the reason why Gongsun Chan wants to seize power is because he actually looks down on Ma Qiang from the bottom of his heart, in his heart, Ma Qiang is not a child of a family, a disciple of Confucianism, and a descendant of the royal family, but because he has cured the black plague and knows some strange tricks.
People, the more they lack something, the more they care about something, Gongsun Chan has suffered too much because of his identity, so at this time, he cares about his background and identity, and he can't look down on a mountain and wild person like Ma Qiang from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, such ideas sometimes change drastically, but now Gongsun Chan is like this.
A Confucian scholar behind Gongsun Chan walked out, arched his hand and smiled, "My lord is a rough man, not good at words, my lord just thinks that he is a guest general, and he should take the initiative to fight, but he doesn't want to misunderstand!" ”
As he spoke, the man pulled Gongsun Zhan, and Gongsun Zhan hurriedly nodded and said, "Exactly, exactly, don't misunderstand your humble position!" Humble duty is just a desire to fight! ”
Ma Qiang hesitated, he didn't want to merge with Gongsun Zhan, first, it was unnecessary, and secondly, Gongsun Zhan had just killed Zhang Ju, and if he did it now, others would think that he was robbing him.
Ma Qiang suddenly laughed, "I naturally know, in this way, the city is narrow, please Liaodong soldiers and horses camped in the wilderness, Gongsun Changshi and you can enter the city for a banquet, and now tens of thousands of thieves are hoarding in Guangyang, Liangxiang and other cities, it is not easy to exterminate them." ”
This time it was Gongsun Zhan's turn to be a little scared, he was just like that, this banquet would not be a Hongmen banquet.
Ma Qiang saw that Gongsun Chan did not move, and immediately understood.
Damn, it turns out that you are also afraid, you are blind in this business.
Ma Qiang sneered, grabbed Gongsun Zhan's hand, and then handed it to Huang Zhong and said, "Camp Commander Huang, you are all good at riding and shooting, you will get close to each other later, let's go!" ”
Huang Zhong grinned, held a knife in one hand, grabbed Gongsun Chan with the other, and then dragged it into the city, Gongsun Chan only felt a huge force, he was almost about to fly, Dong Dong Dong took three steps in a row to stabilize his body, and Gongsun Yue and others behind Gongsun Chan didn't know what to do for a while, only to see the surrounding sergeants surrounding, they could only go to the city hard, as for the cavalry outside the city, seeing Gongsun Chan and others entering the city, they began to camp according to the order.
