The farewell of the Bohai Navy is really a farewell, let the Jizhou army retreat overnight, never out of the camp gate half a step, even if it is the afternoon of the next day, Gongsun Ming led more than 1,300 surviving light cavalry back to the camp, and never launched a pursuit war, but led the troops directly to the north, seized Jixian, Juyongguan and Shanglan and other important towns in Youzhou, did not pay attention to the rapid retreat of the Jizhou army, two days later, after learning the Jizhou army's withdrawal of the quasi-letter, the Montenegrin army also began to seize the Youzhou territory in a big way.

The Montenegrin army learned that the Jizhou army withdrew its troops a little later, and its actions were not as decisive as the Bohai Navy, although there were many soldiers and horses, but the result of the enclosure was obviously inferior to the Bohai Navy. Zhuoxian and other eight county seats, and on the other hand, although the Bohai Navy is only one-third of the strength of the Montenegrin Army, but enough to seize the fourteen county seats, the number of soldiers and horses is to surrender and accept the rebels increased dramatically to 45,000, and finally, at the beginning, the two armies that were safe and quiet at the beginning coincidentally converged on Fangcheng County (now Gu'an County) occupied by the Bohai Navy, and the interesting thing is that although the two sides have formed a pattern of military confrontation, there has never been a conflict between each other, nor has they contacted each other, it is obvious that both sides are carefully considering how to deal with each other。

"Zhugong, the battle of Youzhou is now over for the time being, although Gongsun Chan is dead, he has a good son, he is considered to be a successor, and the princes have any views on this matter, and they are all discussed. ”

Fangcheng, Gongsun Ming and the Montenegrin army between the war and Wuzi are undecided, Xuchang, Cao Cao, who had just exterminated Lu Bu and returned triumphantly, learned about the war in Youzhou, but immediately summoned many of his advisers to the palace and discussed the situation in Youzhou.

"Ming Gong, I think that after Yuan Benchu experienced this defeat, although the foundation still exists, the vitality is already a big injury, and there is no need to worry, but Gongsun Ming and his people rose suddenly, and the use of soldiers is strange, it is not comparable to idle people, if it becomes the climate, but I am afraid that there will be endless troubles. ”

Among the many strategists present, Cheng Yu was the most anxious, and he was quite jealous of Gongsun Ming's use of troops in his heart, so he made it clear that he wanted to find an opportunity to suppress Gongsun Ming's attitude.

"Well, it's really good to use soldiers, first to make a deception plan, and then to use the strategy of fire attack, and at the end of the day, it is really good to come to the hand hundreds of miles of light cavalry to attack, it is really good, even if it is a, in this case, I am afraid that it can only be so, what is even more rare is that this person can judge the situation, not exhaustively chasing Yuan Benchu, leaving enough means to move, so much, it can be said that it is extremely sophisticated, it is hard to believe that it is from the hand of a small yellow-mouthed child, do you think this person may serve the imperial court?"

The reason why Cao Cao was in a hurry to convene a seminar on Youzhou affairs was precisely because he saw that Gongsun Ming's weapons were extraordinary, and he had the intention to use them, of course, if he couldn't, the means of suppression had to be prepared urgently.

"If the Duke of Ming wants to know his heart, Jia has a strategy: you might as well appoint Liu He as the pastor of Youzhou, and then appoint Gongsun Ming as the former general, and then join forces with Liu He to send troops to recruit the Black Mountain thieves. ”

Cao Cao's question was obviously not so easy to answer, not only Cheng Yu frowned and thought hard, but even Xun You and others couldn't help but be troubled by it, but Guo Jia was very calm and calm, and he came up with a plan unhurriedly.

"Do you want to step your father? Well, Fengxiao (Guo Jia's character) is a great policy, and it is so decided. ”

Liu He is the son of the late Tai Lieutenant Liu Yu, and Gongsun Zhan has a blood feud against his father, and he also has 30,000 soldiers, and now he is attached to Yuan Shao, and he is the pastor of Youzhou, so it is natural to make it clear that he wants to control Gongsun Ming, in this case, if Gongsun Ming has no ambition, he will naturally not accept such a humiliating appointment, on the contrary, if he pretends to agree, in fact, he secretly plots to annex Liu He's soldiers and horses, his ambition is naturally not small, and the truth is not very complicated, but if you want to see through, it is not something that ordinary people can do, of course, Cao Cao is naturally not among ordinary people, and it is a little bit clear, as for whether such appointments will cause another round of chaos in Youzhou, that is not within Cao Cao's consideration, and when he looks at the excitement left and right, it is naturally not a big deal......

"Report, the lord, a group of people came from outside the camp, and the leader claimed to be Sikong Xi Cao Peng Chen Qun, and came to announce the edict by order, asking the lord to make it clear. ”

On April 27, the fourth year of Jian'an, at three o'clock, Gongsun Ming was exchanging views with Gongsun Fan and others in the Fangcheng camp on the next strategic idea, but saw a rotating lieutenant hurriedly entering from outside, bowing to Gongsun Ming is body, and reported a sentence tightly.

"Oh, let's go, let's take a look. ”

In order to balance Yuan Shao, Gongsun Ming also had the intention to contact Cao Cao, but it was not now, at least after he stabilized the situation in Youzhou, he would start to do this, but he never thought that Cao Cao would send someone so quickly, if there was nothing strange in it, it would be strange, but the current situation is unclear, even if Gongsun Ming is full of suspicions, but there is no way to guess, so he can only take one step at a time.

Outside the heavily guarded camp gate, dozens of cavalry escorted a wide luxury carriage, and next to the carriage stood a medium-sized civil official, but seeing that his face was like a crown of jade, and his five long beards fluttered in the wind, he looked like a fairy among the gods, this person was the former Yuzhou Bei Driver Chen Qun, who had just joined Cao Cao, Chinese New Year's Eve, from the Chen clan of the Yingchuan Wang clan.

"I don't know that Chen Gong has arrived, he has missed the welcome, forgive the sins, forgive the sins. ”

Seeing Chen Qun's demeanor so graceful from afar, Gongsun Ming's heart was really full of sourness, but he was not jealous of Chen Qun's own demeanor, but jealous of Cao Cao's occupation of a good territory, and was stunned that most of the talents of Yingchuan were included in his command.

"Don't dare, don't dare, General Gongsun is polite, Chen's trip is to come to announce the edict by order, and ask the general to prepare for this. ”

In the face of Gongsun Ming's big gift, Chen Qun was obviously very surprised, and unconsciously wanted to step back, but suddenly remembered his identity as a Qincha, so he didn't move his steps, just politely returned the salute, and made a request at the beginning.

"This is natural, it's just that the things in the army are not complete, and it will take a little more time, if Chen Gong doesn't dislike it, and the camp takes a break for a while, can Rong take a plan or two?"

Although the Han Ting is already an empty shelf, after all, it still occupies the name of righteousness, and if it blatantly violates the will, it will be criticized by the people of the world, because of this, before he can't figure out the details, how can Gongsun Ming accept the order casually, naturally he is polite and perfunctory.
