Xi Zhicai and they broke through, and Gongsun Chan had no way at all.

When Guan Yu was discovered, they didn't dare to pursue it, so they let Xi Zhicai and them leave.

After leaving, Gongsun Chan was full of loss at this time.

Linzi City was defeated, but the nest was occupied.

After Xi Zhicai and they walked away, Xu You came over.

"General Gongsun, this is too sudden, you and I have done our best."

Gongsun Chan was silent.

After being silent for a long time, Gongsun Chan just sighed and gave a few orders to let the army enter Linzi City to rest and treat the wounded.

Xu You said again: "General Gongsun, since the war is over, our army has also suffered more than 10,000 casualties, we need to go back as soon as possible, and I will definitely suggest that Ben Chu crusade against that Zhang Ming with you." ”

"Zhang Ming is a scourge, you can't eradicate it sooner."

Gongsun Chan just nodded silently.

Xu You left, but he was not very happy in his heart.

Yuan Shao's purpose was to achieve some of it, but not all of it.

After this battle, he believed that Gongsun Chan would not be able to attack Yuan Shao easily, but Zhang Ming's strength was not damaged, but would skyrocket.

The fall of a Gongsun Chan is what they want to see, but if another Zhang Ming comes, the result will not be very good.

The next day, Gongsun Chan sorted out all the affairs, and then personally led an army of 30,000 to the north.

Anyway, his family is still in Zhang Ming's hands, so he can't just leave it at that.

He knew that this Jixian County would not be able to get it back, at least in the short term.

Gongsun Chan led the army to join Gongsun Yue.

"Big brother, big brother..."

"It's all my fault, it's me who lost the city."

Gongsun Yue knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.

Gongsun Chan closed his eyes, he took a deep breath, and suppressed all his anger.

"Get up, that's it."

Gongsun Chan sighed deeply, and then said, "How is the situation now? Can Zhang Ming kill someone? ”

"I don't know."

Zhang Ming blocked the news, and the officials who had been searching for Gongsun Chan on a large scale, could only know that most of the people were still alive, but no one knew how many people Zhang Ming had killed.

I don't know.

There is no way, Gongsun Chan has to face it.

So, Gongsun Chan led an army of 50,000 to Jixian.

At this time, Zhang Ming had occupied Jixian County for more than ten days, and Xi Zhicai and others also rushed back to Jixian County.

Gongsun Chan came with an army of 50,000.

"Gongsun Taishou, I haven't seen you for a long time, and now this Jixian County is mine."

Gongsun Chan was very helpless on horseback.

"General Zhang, can you put my family back?"

Gongsun Chan is here to ask for someone.

"Of course you can, not only your family, but also your officials have been arrested, we can talk."

Gongsun Chan breathed a sigh of relief, their Gongsun family also had a large population.

"What are the conditions?"

"The conditions are very simple, within a year, my ship can dock freely in Qingzhou for friendly business exchanges, as long as you promise, I will let everyone go." Zhang Ming said.

Gongsun Chan was silent for a long time, and then said, "You're not afraid that I will regret it?" ”

"I regret it this time, I don't have to have any scruples about killing people next time, and your Gongsun Zhan's name will not be so easy to use in the future."

Of course, Zhang Ming was afraid, but he couldn't help himself if he wanted to regret it.

Zhang Ming did not want to detain the lives of his family and many officials to blackmail.

That's the kidnapper.

Although Zhang Ming doesn't mind, he has even been a bandit, but now that his identity is different, he still needs to be taller.

If Gongsun Chan agrees to let his fleet dock and continue to do business with the other families, he will get more benefits.

"Okay, I promise you."

Gongsun Chan agreed, but he couldn't help it, Zhang Ming didn't want money, he didn't want anything else.

Moreover, it is only for one year, and after one year, this agreement can be scrapped.

"Okay, General Gongsun, wait a minute, I'll put the people back soon."

The next day, Zhang Ming really released people, and thousands of people were released.

Thousands?

When Gongsun Chan found out, he was dumbfounded.

Zhang Ming arrested so many people?

The captors were not only his people, but all the people of the high-ranking officials.

Zhang Ming started with the county officials, and emptied them all, not a single one.

This will lead to a brief period of chaos in the counties, with no one to manage.

But Zhang Ming doesn't care, he doesn't need to manage at all, just wait for his people to take over.

Recently, Tian Feng has been very busy.

He had to mobilize people from all over to take over the two newly occupied territories.

And Tian Feng has to focus on Jixian County recently.

Jixian County, at this time, government affairs were handled by Zhang Ming personally.

He had to recruit and train the army, and he had to restore all order.

The transfer of various materials and the transfer of various personnel, Zhang Ming was busy dealing with various government affairs.

Finally, order was restored in Jixian County, and Zhang Ming was not in a hurry.

He asked Chen Yang to go to Youbeiping and divided the land there first.

This time, Zhang Ming confiscated half of the land, which was the land of the Gongsun Chan family and those officials.

Zhang Ming occupied all of these lands without spending a penny and would later distribute them to the displaced people.

And the rest of the big families, the big landlords are very acquainted, and they all sell the land to Zhang Ming.

What if you don't sell it, Zhang Ming can use a knife to grab it.

The sky in Youzhou has changed by half.

At this time, Gongsun Chan was licking his wounds.

The loss of tens of thousands of people did not achieve the effect, and the territory also lost two counties, and it is still an important place.

After Yuan Shao, Xu You and others went back, he ceremoniously received Xu You, Yan Liang and Gao Ran.

"Originally, what did I give you the idea?"

Xu You took two sips of wine, and then said to himself: "Originally, it was the best of both worlds, but I didn't expect Zhang Mingqi to make a move, but it doesn't matter, Gongsun Chan has been abolished, and the threat to us has been greatly reduced." ”

In the past few months, Gongsun Chan has focused on Zhang Ming, and they have vigorously developed, scattered the recruitment of soldiers and horses, scattered training, and now have a strong army.

Before, Yuan Shao had been pressed and beaten, but now he finally doesn't have to be afraid of Gongsun Chan anymore.

At this time, Gongsun Zan was still aware of it, and when Yuan Shao gathered his troops, he knew that Yuan Shao had secretly recruited and trained so many troops.

Gongsun Chan regretted it, but he was powerless to change.

Zhang Ming also captured more than 10,000 Gongsun Zhan's army, selected 8,000 people at this time, and also began training, so that they can also join the army in the future.

Time flies quickly, and now it's January 192.

Zhang Ming occupied Jixian County for more than three months.

During the months of the war, Zhang Ming's newspaper had a super large circulation.

He sells 15 copper coins for a newspaper, which costs 20 copper coins, and there are more than 30,000 copies per issue.

Half of the sales were in several areas controlled by Zhang Ming, and some were bought by the families of Qingzhou.

They also see business opportunities and know that this information is important to them, and the content in this newspaper is interesting.

Zhang Ming's newspaper has a huge circulation, and he is mixed with some of his own private work, and there is always a page to introduce and promote himself, which will always have a subtle effect.
