Chapter 378: Zhang Wang

Time passed day by day, and it was not until September 27 that the battlefield outside Fuyang City was initially sorted out.

The camp of the Montenegrin army was not withdrawn, along with the gathering of the White Horse Yicong, the Montenegrin Army, and the Yellow Turban Army scattered all over Youzhou, as well as the Yellow Turban Army that was far away in the city after being rescued by the troops led by Weidun, 5,000 people came to converge under the leadership of Zhang Yan, Zhang Mancheng and others, and the camp was more noisy than before.

On the other hand, the Wuhuan camp is also overcrowded. Five or six days ago, Lu Zhi and Xian Yuyin led 10,000 county soldiers to come and station, that is, some Wuhuan soldiers and Yuyang soldiers were sent back to Yuyang and Youbeiping, and some county soldiers were stationed in Fuyang City, and the whole camp was still crowded.

It is worth noting that there is not much communication between the two camps, and there are occasional small-scale frictions, and the coaches of the two sides, Lu Zhi and Gongsun Zhan, also seem to be strangers, without even any communication, and even ignore the disputes of their subordinates, and have a great tendency to test each other, and even fight against each other.

However, this was not the case at the beginning, a few days ago, Zhang Yan, the leader of the Montenegrin Army, and Zhang Mancheng, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, did not visit after Lu Zhi arrived, but they just touched the wall a few times, and they didn't even see anyone, which was also spread because Lu Zhi wanted Zhang Yan and Zhang Mancheng to avoid suspicion after Liu Zheng was arrested, as for the specific situation, many people didn't know, fortunately, the two sides outside the city were still tacit, and no one entered the city to cause trouble, but that's the case, I learned that nearly sixty or seventy thousand people were stationed outside the city, There is still tension between the two sides, and panic is naturally unavoidable.

Fortunately, the reason why the two sides did not withdraw was finally confirmed at noon that day.

With the roar gradually approaching from the northwest outside the city, gradually evolving into an earth-shaking sound, the people in the city witnessed the slight earthquake of the houses and the fall of the mud and sand, and then they knew that the army assembled in the two camps outside the city was defending, and the object of defense was the Xianbei army that had been stationed in the area of Ning County.

In the time that followed, the hearts of hundreds of people in the city were tormented, and no one knew what the situation outside the city was, and only from some gossip that the cavalry of the two camps in the south of the city began to rush to the past and confront the army in the middle of Xianbei, and then there were loud roars one after another from the northwest, and occasionally the sound of horses' hooves shook the earth and the roar continued.

Countless people waited for the result in panic, but it was not until the next morning, with another scene like a slight earthquake happening in front of them, that the whole city finally got the news that there was no war, and Kebineng was persuaded to surrender by Zou Dan, the captain of the Wuhuan Guard, and now he had left.

This news is undoubtedly gratifying, especially the incident of Kebineng's persuasion to surrender after the capture of Wuhuan, it is like a double happiness, making people feel like seeing the glorious grandeur of the Huo and Wei eras in the past, but at the same time, some people who have received first-hand news feel strange.

Judging from the information obtained in the past few days, Zou Dan obviously belongs to Gongsun Zhan's people, and Xianbei Wuhuan never cared about Zou Dan in the past.

But what about Lu Zhi? What about Liu Yu?

The strange situation in Youzhou that was vaguely revealed in the news made many people's hearts ripple again when they had just settled down, and they even felt shuddering.

Soon after, when he learned that Kebineng handed over the captured 50,000 or 60,000 Shanggu Wuhuan to Lu Zhi for arrangement, and at the same time promised to send 10,000 Xianbei people into Zhuo County and accept the Han rule with the tens of thousands of Wuhuan people who might be arranged there, on the other hand, he gave Gongsun Zhan 10,000 people, saying that it was to help fight Dong Zhuo together, this seemingly flattering move between the two sides made many people more and more sure that Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan now belong to two completely different systems.

Moreover, Gongsun Zhan's status in Youzhou has undoubtedly risen with Lu Zhi's acceptance of Ke Bineng's arrangement, and it has reached the point where he can be on an equal footing with Liu Yu, that is to say, Liu Yu has realized that he can't control Gongsun Chan at all, and he has made a compromise.

Furthermore, Gongsun Chan is unstoppable, and Youzhou has changed the sky, only in Gongsun Chan's thoughts.

The deep meaning behind this news has made some people more and more anxious. Even though Kebineng also signed a contract with Lu Zhi and Liu Yu on the regulations and contracts related to the trade of Hu City, but this is all about people's livelihood, but what is given to Gongsun Chan is a real soldier and horse, plus Liu Yu needs to properly deal with Wu Huan, which is equivalent to saying that Wu Huan will contain Liu Yu's soldiers and horses, at this time, if Gongsun Chan leads the Black Mountain Army and the Yellow Turban Army to do something, it will be easy for Youzhou to change hands.

Of course, if others can think of such a situation, Gongsun Chan can naturally think of it.

At this time, the sun was just right, the distant mountains were beautiful, Gongsun Zhan looked at the big camp in the east, sat on the horse, and smiled at Mo Hubao on the side, "You say, if I take advantage of the morale of the soldiers and horses to give the opposite side a ruthless blow, is the rise of my Gongsun clan inevitable, and it will be unstoppable in the future?" ”

Zhang Yan, Zhang Mancheng, Yang Feng and others all changed color, Mo Hubao straightened the hairband of the crown and said with a smile: "I don't know, but what Jihou says, a certain family will do." I'll listen to you this time. ”

"Why don't you try?" Gongsun Chan licked his lips, his eyes were full of sunlight, shining incomparably.

"Ahem." Someone suddenly coughed behind everyone, Gongsun Chan turned his head, stunned, and saw an embarrassed smile on the person's rather elegant and steady face: "Am I not here at the right time?" Why don't I go back to Zhuoxian? Yan is not good at military planning. ”

"Hugh Ruo! You're finally here! Gongsun Chan looked overjoyed, jumped off his horse, took off his two high boots and socks, threw them on the ground, and ran over.

Xun Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's deliberate." ”

"It's so valuable!" Gongsun Chan laughed, didn't give up, hooked Xun Yan's shoulder, then looked at the east, and said in his ear: "Since you are here, it means that there is indeed something strange in it?" ”

"What the Captain said just now is to explore the deep meaning of Deran's imprisonment? Or do you want to glorify the lintel of the Gongsun clan? Xun Yan asked softly, and then in Gongsun Zhan's ridicule, he made a gesture of please, "Please get on the horse, and I will go to save Deran together." ”

"Really?" Gongsun Zhan suddenly sighed, and said, "If you want to say that, I suddenly want to go back to Lingzhi." It's so boring that no one told me in advance, but it took me a lot of effort to guess a little. ”

"It's not for a reason, if it's true."

Xun Yan explained, Gongsun Zhan still looked interested, "Xiu Ruo, you and I are friends with wine and meat, why don't you help me plan?" How about I build a dock fort, store grain for 30 years, and wait for Deran to calm the world and revitalize the Han Dynasty? I'm also blessed with pure blessings, more than anything."

Xun Yan smiled and joked: "Brother Bo Qi is the pillar of the country, how can he be a hermit?" You can rest assured, in the future, Xun will definitely let your Gongsun clan rise. ”

Gongsun Zhan suddenly looked excited: "In the future? How long? ”

"Well, that depends on what the captain means. I was sold to you by Wen Ruo. Xun Yan said helplessly, "I'm honestly afraid, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress you." ”

"Hahaha sells well, sells well!" Gongsun Chan laughed, and then suddenly his face turned pale, and he arched his hand and said: "I don't live up to Qing, Qing doesn't live up to me, how about it?" ”

"Very good!" Xun Yan also arched his hand, and his face was upright.

Soon after, a scene appeared outside the city that everyone did not expect.

Gongsun Zhan suddenly raised his troops, and before Lu Zhi could react, he headed towards Wuruan Pass in the south.

He left a lot of grain and grass along the way, causing the army under Lu Zhi to compete for it, and then when Lu Zhi and others had no time to take precautions, he suddenly led 10,000 cavalry towards Juyong Pass

That night, after the hour passed, Liu was lying on the kang, listening to the sound of banging outside the window, his index finger curled the tips of his greasy hair, and the moonlight sprinkled from the window, showing his bored face.

Outside the window, there were sporadic insect chirps, and outside the cell door were Zuo Ling and several other fellow inmates.

Speaking of which, after some arguments that morning, Zuo Ling interceded for Liu Zheng in front of Guan Yu, and the vast majority of people in the prison realized Zuo Ling's character of changing his mistakes when he knew his mistakes, so they also began to try to accept Zuo Ling.

Later, the contact was deepened, and everyone also found that Zuo Ling was not only Dong Zhuo's person, but also very easy to speak, and he didn't have any shelves on weekdays, and he often complimented others, plus he was well-informed, and his conversation was also extremely funny.

Liu Zheng has always kept a cold face towards Zuo Ling Li Bei, but Zuo Ling deliberately flattered him, and he occasionally participated in Zuo Ling's topic in the inquiries of others, showing that he gradually let go of his hatred for Zuo Ling.

On the other hand, since Zhang Fei was beaten on the day of the beating, after he knelt, Guan Yu also showed that he cared about the old feelings, although Zhang Fei did not come again, but Li Cheng and Zhao Yun would come over once a day, and Ran Lian also came in to visit once, and roughly told what had happened in the past few days.

Regarding Youzhou, most of the area still remains the same, except for the promotion of some officials, and Liu Yu, who was in Changping, led the county soldiers to Yuyang to prepare for Zou Jing and others, basically there was no major turmoil in Youzhou After Liu Yu appeared, there seemed to be a tendency to return to tranquility again.

However, there are not a few things related to Liu Zheng.

Xun Yu surrendered and was appointed as the county governor of Zhuo County, and after consultation between Zhang Yi and Liu Yu, according to the conditions prescribed by Xun Yu, Xun Cai, Xun You and others were sent back to Zhuo County for resettlement.

Tai Shici was brought back to Liu Zheng by Lu Zhi, and this time he had already followed Liu Zheng to lead the troops south.

Zhang Mancheng refused to accept the position of lieutenant of the acting county department, and then Guan Hai was told by Liu Yu in Changping, recognized his position, and led more than 100,000 Yellow Turban troops to settle down in the county.

Zhang Min and Zhao Yu were rescued by Huang Shao, Liu Yu raised troops to beg for it, and Huang Shao was not a bird, which caused rumors in Youzhou to continue.

All in all, this result is generally in the direction envisioned by Lu Zhi and others, as for Guan Hai, Liu Zheng can also think that these Yellow Turban Army should become the fulcrum of prying open Xianbei in the future.

In addition, there are actually several things happening in the military capital.

Dye Lian begged Guan Yu to release Liu Zheng at the gate of the county government three times and five times, and was assassinated by several Wuhuan people, so Zhao Yun reacted in time and rescued the people, causing Guan Yu to spread out his manpower to search for Wuhuan thieves.

Someone robbed the prison here and threatened to save Liu Zheng, but after that, Guan Yu arrested a few people and asked out, they were actually Zuo Ling's subordinates, and the purpose of this time was to save Zuo Ling Li Bei, listening to what a few jailers said, they seemed to want to save Liu Zheng together.

Gongsun Yue led Bai Ma Yicong to rebel in the city, and then took the opportunity to escape from many eyelines, and now it seems that he is still in the city, but his whereabouts are unknown.

It is difficult to distinguish between true and false news Liu Zheng, but he at least understands that Lu Zhi is going west, Liu Yu is going east, Guan Yu, Gongsun Yue and others are all mixed in the military capital, and Guangyang is relatively empty at this time, which is creating an opportunity for him to escape.

And this timing is more accurate, probably after Gongsun Chan negotiated the business with Kebineng

He thought about it for a while, and was about to fall asleep in a daze, when suddenly a shout came from the direction of the prison gate, and then the sound of weapons staggered continuously, and the noise began to approach, and soon after, the door of the corridor was kicked open, and nearly ten masked men in black broke in, holding torches to unlock the door one by one, and did not clearly say who to save, only said: "Today, I have risked the world's condemnation in one fell swoop, and I hope you will think clearly." ”

When the opposite cell door was opened, Zuo Ling took Li Bei to hesitate like others, hurriedly thanked him and went out, and then saluted Liu Zhengshi: "Liu Gongzi, Zuo was really helpless in the past, and today he is taken care of by the righteous people of Youzhou, and when Zuo goes back to the capital in the future, he will definitely take care of the righteous people of Youzhou." If you want to come, Zuo will guarantee the life of the whole clan, as long as Zuo's breath remains, you will never be in any danger. Leave! ”

"Fuck off!" Liu Zheng scolded impatiently, and then hurriedly walked out after the man in black unlocked the door.

"Big brother!" The person who came looked at Zuo Ling Li Bei's back, and at the moment when Zuo Ling turned his head, he pulled the black scarf that Ramon had on his face, and then glared at Zuo Ling, seeing Zuo Ling hurriedly take Li Bie away, and smiled at Liu Zheng: "Let's go, I'll wait to go home." "The person who came was Zhang Fei.

Liu Zheng looked at Zuo Ling Li Bei's hurried back, laughed, and then left the prison with Zhang Fei's support and got into the carriage driven by Li Cheng and Zhao Yun.

Soon after, Zhang Fei drove the carriage to the nearby south city gate, at this time the city gate had been captured by a group of black-clothed people, and the leading one ripped off the masked black scarf after Zhang Fei shouted, and shouted to the soldiers who were still attacking this side: "Brother Yun, I will only save Brother Deran!" If you lead people to resist stubbornly, don't blame me for waiting for the bloodbath in the military capital! Don't quit yet! ”

Guan Yu immediately crossed the knife, shouted and asked people to retreat, seeing many people going out from the city gate under the escort of the man in black, he waved his knife and pointed: "Gongsun Zidu, you really want to rebel!" ”

"Justice is at ease in people's hearts! You just have to retreat, if you still want to entangle, it is disloyal and unjust, if you let me wait this time, he will be my brother and Liu Yuanjun and Zi Gangong to say, you can also leave a name of loyalty! That's how we can convince the people! ”

"Since Guan has eaten Hanlu, how can he?"

In the middle of the words, the sound of horses' hooves roared from outside the city, and soon after, someone rode in and shouted: "Yun Chang, you are the tiger general of the world, what are you doing by staying with Liu Yu's old horseman?" Why don't you go south with a certain family and make contributions together? ”

As soon as the man's shout fell, countless people shouted the slogan of the White Horse's righteous obedience.

Seeing that Guan Yu was silent, Zuo Ling Li Bei, who was mixed in the crowd out of the city, looked at Gongsun Zhan who was close at hand, looking at him with fresh clothes and angry horses, and the generals beside him were all on the back of the tiger, and his murderous aura was not inferior to many generals in Guanxi, while being vigilant in his heart, his face also showed gratitude, "Jihou is mighty!" Thank you, Marquis of Ji" Soon after, he and Li Bei escaped and ascended to heaven, joined a few of his men, and hurried towards the south.

At the same time, Gongsun Chan and others were stopped by Lu Zhi who followed closely, and after a dispute that almost tore his face, Lu Zhi finally agreed to let Liu Zheng go, but also said that if Gongsun Chan refused to go south within two months, he would definitely raze Lingzhi and destroy Liu Zheng's family.

Gongsun Zhan turned a deaf ear and sneered domineeringly, but then led Liu Zheng, Gongsun Yue and others to disappear into the night.

What most people don't know is that among the people who escaped from the city in the early hours of this morning, all those who committed crimes or escaped from prisons, except for Liu Zheng, Zuo Ling, and Li Bei, were secretly executed, while the rest of those who did not escape were all released back in various names soon after.

And what only a few people know is that in the near future, a big drama will be staged in sour dates and even Luoyang.

Of course, among them, there is another person who thinks nervously: How big the hell's heart is going to be, and he is a little excited to think about it. Dong Fatzi, Yuan Benchu, Lao Tzu is coming! Just ask you if you're afraid!
