In fact, just a few days after they finished discussing, five hundred kilometers away from Jixian County, in Youbeiping, Gongsun Zhan couldn't help but laugh a few times when he looked at the latest news, and his tone was full of irrepressible excitement.

"Hahaha, great, those strangers really kept their word and helped me kill Liu Yu, an old thing that was an eyesore, and from now on, no one can stop me from completely controlling the entire Youzhou ......."

That's right, Nanshan's idea was to let Liu Yu pretend to be dead and lure the other party to attack the enemy.

In this way, even if Gongsun Chan would divide his troops to occupy other places, in order to control the entire Youzhou as soon as possible and deal with the ensuing central investigation or criticism, he would also gather most of his troops and go straight to Jixian, the seat of the prefecture pastoral mansion, so as to take over the power and position vacated after Liu Yu's death in the shortest possible time.

And as long as they can solve this part of the main force, Youzhou's losses will naturally be minimized.

After all, there are currently less than 5,000 people who can be mobilized by the state government, and even fewer will be dispersed to various cities. Even if there is no need to garrison the place near the border now, it is difficult to compare with the strength of Gongsun Zhan. Therefore, instead of being broken by the opponent's superior forces and exchanging space for time, it is better to use this method to force Gongsun Zan to fight it out within Jixian County.

It can not only meet Liu Yu's requirements, prevent the escalation of the war and affect more ordinary people, but also highlight his role.

However, Gongsun Chan has been in battle for a long time and will not be casually stimulated by a good news to get carried away, for the fact that Liu Yu has been assassinated and killed, he was only excited for a short while, and then became cautious again, and asked.

"Are you sure Liu Yu is really dead, didn't they deliberately come up with a trick to lure me?"

He was well aware of the strength of those aliens, but because of that, he was so careful.

If you can decisively abandon your own junior and brother and turn over, then betraying again is not worth making a fuss.

Therefore, compared to taking control of the state government in a short period of time, so as to completely control the entire Youzhou, Gongsun Chan is actually more worried about whether this is a trap deliberately set by the enemy. In fact, those aliens have already joined forces with Liu Yu and are waiting for themselves to fall into the net.

"My lord, the source of the news has been determined, and it has been reported by several officials in the state governor's mansion who have befriended us: Liu Yu was seriously injured on the night of his assassination, and after that, he barely lasted until the next morning, and when he summoned all his staff and generals to come back to entrust him with great affairs, he died. It is said that dozens of people saw the process of Liu Yu's death at that time, and he asked these people to listen to Liu Youzhonglang (the identity of the protagonist's replacement) before His Majesty's latest appointment arrived, and then lock up the whole city and capture the assassins. ”

"Of course, we don't just take their word for it. In this assassination, these strangers did not all shoot, and there were two people outside to answer, and they fled back after seeing something bad for the first time. In addition, our spies lurking in the city have also been rewarded, although Liu Yu left a will, but because Liu Youzhonglang has not returned, the state pastoral mansion lacks a core that can suppress people. As a result, the local officials and Liu Yu, who had already had some power struggles, began to disobey no one with anyone with a few important staff members who had taken office, making the situation in the city extremely chaotic, and even broke out several conflicts, forcing several local generals to leave the state city. ”

"There is no doubt that this is an opportunity from heaven for adults.... At present, only the official position of the adult in the entire Youzhou is the largest, and he is also a Zhonglang general, and the Huangkou child, how can he be compared with the adult. It's just that it was only by taking advantage of the fact that the adults blocked the main force of the Wuhuan people gathered in Feiru to occupy Wuliao Mountain, and only killed some old, weak, sick and disabled, so it can be said that they climbed to such an official position by stealing the credit of the adults. But this old man Liu Yu not only doesn't know what is right from wrong, but also entrusts him with the power to dominate the state capital, it's really damned! I think that adults have worked hard in the border areas for ten years, and braved countless dangers to accumulate merit and be promoted to Zhonglang General, is it not as good as this guy who just lucked away shit luck! ”

The person who spoke was Gongsun Zhan's first strategist - Changshi Guan Jing.

He is very trusted by the former, and he is responsible for most of the affairs, including marching and fighting, and intelligence gathering.

The news from the state pastoral office is naturally no exception.

But it's a pity that although this person is known as a strategist, he is a cool official, short-sighted, and can only flatter and sycophant, and the only thing worthy of praise is probably loyalty.

In history, after knowing that Gongsun Zan was surrounded by Yuan Shao and committed suicide, he immediately led an army straight to the camp of Yuan's army, and finally died in battle.

From this aspect, it can also be seen why Gongsun Chan was defeated so quickly.

Obviously, he had an obvious advantage in the early days, was one of the largest princes in the north, held the authority of the governor's four northern states, and was even more powerful than Yuan Shao's power, but in less than a few years, he became a rebel and a relative. On the other hand, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have a lot of top strategists, even if their strength is not as good as in the early stage, they can finally turn the tables in the later stage by relying on exquisite micro-manipulation and rapid development.

Originally, Gongsun Chan was already on guard, even if he couldn't resist the temptation in the end, he would be somewhat cautious, and he didn't want to be provoked by these words mixed with praise at this moment, and immediately became angry.

"What Changshi said is extremely true, I saw that Huangkou Xiaoer when Liu Yu first came, and he didn't have much talent at all, even to stimulate his fighting spirit and spiritual power, he also relied on some shortcuts, only by virtue of the relationship between the royal family and his relatives, he could succeed in making up for the official and follow Liu Yu to take office together. If such a guy is allowed to control Youzhou, how can he be worthy of those loyal soldiers who followed me from birth to death and fought against the Hu people! ”

That's why empiricism kills people.

Obviously, for the impression of "Liu You", Gongsun Chan was still stuck before Nanshan entered the chaos, and he didn't know that under the same appearance, the other party had already changed.

And because of the problem of identity, he started to climb up from a small official The most annoying (jealous) is this shameless relation, not to mention, he is so lucky, with a few hundred people can go all the way to the hinterland of the grassland, how can he endure the defeat of many times because of the reckless relationship!

So, the new hatred and the old hatred were added together, Gongsun Zhan didn't think much about it, so he ordered the soldiers and horses that had been prepared for a long time, and went straight to Jixian County, vowing to completely control the entire Youzhou before the other party came back.
