Chapter Eighty-Three: Wolf Ambition
"Lord Zhou Mu, according to the exact news from Youbeiping, Gongsun Zhan's department has already let go of Wuhuan people on the condition of exchanging Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and other party leaders who died in Feiru City, and then sent envoys without authorization to go directly to Luoyang across the state and county to report the victory. And based on the time before their departure, they should have left Youzhou and arrived in Jizhou now, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for our people to catch up with ......."
In Youzhou's governance office, Jixian County, and the state pastor's mansion, Liu Yu was listening to the reports of his subordinates with a gloomy face.
He could never have imagined that Gongsun Zhan, who had always been represented by fighting against the Hu people, would be so brazen that he not only planned to kill people with a knife, but also tried in vain to steal the credit of others for himself.
"What a wolf ambition!"
Liu Yu slapped the table and scolded.
"I thought you were dedicated to the public and didn't want the people on the border to suffer from poison, so I didn't expect you to not only not think about reciprocation and loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, but at this time, you even dared to protect evil intentions, collude with foreign races, and let them leave. If Zhenyuan's side ends up failing because of this, I will definitely fight you to the death! ”
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the family gate valve has risen, the so-called imperial power is not like the later dynasties, on the contrary, the control is extremely limited, so that from the Western Han Dynasty, the emperors of the past dynasties have to support the corresponding eunuchs, relatives in order to compete with the local wealthy families. But even so, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, which experienced the rebellion of the party (relying on the power of eunuchs to expel the scholars and nobles represented by the wealthy families), there were still prominent families like the Runan Yuan clan and the Hongnong Yang clan who had long controlled the government, relying on the huge influence and fame accumulated by the third duke of the fourth and fifth dukes to control the promotion and appointment of officials.
And Gongsun Zhan, although he was appreciated and promoted by his father-in-law Zhuojun Taishou, was able to stand out from a small official like Shuzuo, but there were 105 counties in the Eastern Han Dynasty, plus the state pastor and the Beijing officials in various positions, the position of 2,000 stone Taishou was nothing at all. If it weren't for his fairness and lack of looking down on others because of his status, how could Gongsun Zhan, whose mother had a humble status, be promoted so quickly.... In just a few years, he was promoted from a subordinate governor to a commander of nearly 10,000 troops.
You must know that in the eyes of the world, this kind of marriage with unequal status is actually similar to getting rich, how can there be any praise.
But at this time, Liu Yu undoubtedly regretted it greatly, and hated that he couldn't see the true face of the other party early, so that he fell into the current dilemma.
I also know that once Nanshan fails to gain a firm foothold and is attacked by various tribes in the grassland, Gongsun Zhan, who has the merit of quelling Zhang Chun's rebellion, will become the last fig leaf, not only will he be promoted to the knighthood, but his side is also likely to be affected by it and lose his official position.
From then on, without him, the biggest obstacle on the road to power, the entire Youzhou will be dominated by Gongsun Zhan's family......
Considering this, Liu Yu already had a faint decision in his heart.
"If it turns out that nothing can be done in the end, then I can only send the garrison troops of the state capital to kill this fang before it causes a catastrophe!"
But obviously, Gongsun Zhan, who had already calculated, started faster.
In a house not far from the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, there are already people discussing how to deal with Liu Yu, judging from their appearance, it is the few reincarnators who followed Liu Bei and left halfway, as well as our Brother Hao Nan.
"Cheng Haonan, are you really sure that those tribes on the grassland can't stop this reincarnation?"
The one who spoke was the captain of this group of reincarnators-Togo Ichiro, who had spent ten mission worlds and experienced four as a reserve, and the most powerful equipment was a green rare level demon knife, which could absorb the blood of the enemy and replenish himself after being killed, and with the body of the ghost and god that he had strengthened to reduce a certain degree of physical damage, he was very good at battlefield fighting. As long as you don't have the kind of powerful character who can destroy your entire body in one fell swoop, you can keep fighting.
And the reason why they abandoned Liu Bei was not entirely out of concern for the reincarnation force that suddenly appeared on the grassland, but after seeing them, Gongsun Zhan had already sent out a solicitation, obviously more optimistic about their strength. Considering the competition between reincarnators, where to go, it is likely that they will not accept it sincerely, but fight directly, and after some discussion, Togo Ichiro and others feel that Gongsun Chan's side is more promising.
At least, Togo Ichiro, who has reached the highest strength of a three-star reincarnation (a certain attribute exceeds thirty points), is quite confident, if it is a collection of the strength of the entire team, there will be no one in Youzhou who is temporarily lacking first-class generals to garrison them.
You must know that even Gongsun Chan is only a second-rate general.
With their current strength, there is no doubt that they can walk sideways here, and it is not easy to be reused, and there is no need to follow Liu Bei everywhere to send people under the fence.
As for the process of meeting Cheng Haonan, it was also a coincidence.
This guy wanted to pit Nanshan but didn't make it, and he didn't dare to go back if he was scared, and after seeing Zhao Yun and knowing the truth, he immediately thought of running away. It is also thanks to the fact that he is a reincarnation, and his body after the law has no physical limitations, otherwise, before he can run back to the territory of Handi, he will starve to death and freeze to death on the way. But even so, without the guidance of the map and the positioning of the iron-blooded spaceship, he was unlucky enough to run in the wrong direction, and met Togo Ichiro and others who were arranged to assassinate Liu Yu, and after a simple fight, he directly discovered his identity as a reincarnation.
However, our brother Hao Nan obviously has no intention of keeping his mouth shut, and in the face of the persecution of Dongxiang Ichiro and others, he is completely cooperative, wishing that he could sell a little more information and make trouble for that guy.
"Of course, I have been there for more than two months, and I am still one of the founders of the Arms and Fire God Sect, no one knows the strength of that guy better than me, before breaking through the old nest of the Wuhuan people, he was already able to arm the indigenous troops of thousands of people, and now that more than three months have passed, I don't know how many people have been trained."
"I don't think even if the entire grassland forces are combined, I'm afraid they won't be able to defeat him. After all, this is the weapons and equipment after World War II, although most of them were produced in the sixties and seventies, and they are not as good as other countries that won World War II, but the generational gap in weapons and organization in the past two thousand years cannot be made up by high-end forces such as numbers and generals alone. What's more, that guy has long seen the opportunity to take Zhao Yun under his command, and now Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei have run over to throw themselves into the net, if you don't hurry up and get here, and when he comes back with people, with the little strength that Gongsun Chan has accumulated now, he won't be able to make any waves at all, and when he gets the land of Sizhou in the future, it's almost the same. ”
