July 25th.
Gaotang, Youzhou Army Camp.
Gongsun Jing had already gathered all the troops on the plains.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yun had also returned from Beihai Kingdom. She stood in the commander's tent with a tired face.
"How is it?"
Gongsun Jing asked without raising his head as he held a scroll of bamboo slips.
"Prince!"
Zhao Yun took a deep breath and bowed."Liu Bei and his brothers led their men into Beihai County, but they did not defeat the Yellow Turbans. Guan Hai has already agreed to the meeting and said that he will definitely appear in Linyi at the end of July. If the prince breaks his promise, the 100,000-strong army will flood into the plains!”
Yan Gang sneered,"A bunch of rioters. So what if it's 100,000?"”
"You can't say that!"
Gongsun Jing put down the bamboo slips and said in a deep voice,""If there are too many ants, they can even bite an elephant to death. 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers are indeed not a lot for us, but the war is imminent. We can't waste our troops!”
"Here!"
Yan Gang said respectfully.
"Prince, if we go to Linyi to meet, will Yuan Tan attack Gaotang?" Zhao Yun asked worriedly.”
"Zilong!"
"When do you think the war will break out?" Gongsun Jing asked with a faint smile.”
"Early August?"
Zhao Yun guessed.
Yan Gang shook his head and said in a deep voice," I believe that this battle will drag on for at least a month. The Crown Prince has issued a declaration of war, and the Lord is guarding the Bohai Sea. If Cao Mengde really uses the declaration to reject the alliance, Yuan Shao will definitely divide his forces to attack him. It will take a lot of time to mobilize his troops!”
"Haha!"
Gongsun Jing laughed.
"Prince, could it be that General Yan Gang is right?" Zhao Yun asked blankly.”
"Yes!"
Gongsun Jing nodded and said lightly,""Yuan Benchu is a scheming person, and he allowed his subordinates to fight for the merits for his sons. A month of delay is not much, and Jizhou still has to leave troops to guard against the Black Mountain Army.”
"Hiss!"
Zhao Yun gasped.
He had never thought that a denunciation would be so effective.
"Yan Gang!"
Gongsun Jing knocked on the table and said indifferently,""From today onwards, you will lead the army to guard Gaotang. In two days, Zilong will lead a hundred troops and follow me to Linyi to meet Guan Hai. If we can unite the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, not to mention defeating Yuan Tan, even taking down Qinghe will only be a matter of time before the army reaches the hinterland of Jizhou!”
"Here!"
Yan Gang said respectfully.
Zhao Yun's expression changed slightly and she said worriedly,""Prince, Guan Hai is leading tens of thousands of Yellow Turban elites!”
"Zilong!"
Gongsun Jing's eyes were bright as he said in a deep voice,""You have the talent of a general, but you still don't have the courage and vision to lead an army alone. In the future, you will learn military strategy from Yan Gang. Only then will you be able to lead an army alone!”
"Here!"
Zhao Yun said with an ashamed expression.
Yan Gang explained," Zilong, Linyi is a county town in Pingyuan. If the prince leads too many troops, Guan Hai will be on guard. If he leads a hundred troops, it will prove the prince's courage. The chances of taking in this bandit army will greatly increase!”
"I've learned my lesson!"
Zhao Yun bowed slightly.
It seemed that Gongsun Jing and Yan Gang weren't worried about Guan Hai at all.
What kind of courage, what kind of heroic strategy, to be able to remain so calm?
One day.
Two days.
Gongsun Jing rode on a horse in the snow.
Zhao Yunling led 100 White Horse Guards to Lin Yi City.
Gaotang City.
Thirty miles to the east.
On a rural road.
A young man dressed in a green robe and riding a skinny old horse waved his hand to disperse the dust in front of him. He looked at the figure on the mountain path and said in surprise,"Such a young man actually has such a strong aura. As expected of Gongsun Changping, who can write a hundred-word denunciation!”
"Phew!"
Gongsun Jing pulled the reins as he galloped, turned his horse around, and looked at the mountain path.
Zhao Yun turned around to stop the white horse and asked in confusion,""Prince, it's still early. Should we rest?”
"No!"
Gongsun Jing shook his head.
His gaze was fixed on the depths of the mountain path and never moved.
"Ding! Detected that the host is missing the mastermind. The host's luck is decreasing!”
"Ding…Heavenly Mandate Mission issued: Subdue the mastermind Guo Jia. Reward for success unknown. Failure without penalty!”
"Go back!"
Gongsun Jing's eyes lit up.
He immediately rode his horse back to the mountain path, his heart filled with emotion.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Yingchuan produced countless strategists. It could be said that they controlled the direction of the entire war in the early stages of the end of the Han Dynasty. It was only when the strategist of Jingxiang stepped onto the stage of chaos that the dazzling glory of Yingchuan's strategists was curbed.
Guo Fengxiao of Yingchuan was a bright pearl in this chaotic world.
How could he let Guo Jia leave just like that and join Cao Cao's camp five years later?
"Strange!"
Zhao Yun shook her head.
He didn't understand Gongsun Jing's thoughts, so he could only chase after him.
Not too long later.
Gongsun Jing had already caught up to Guo Jia. He rode his horse in front of him and said with a faint smile,"I can't believe I can see such a free and easy person in the countryside. I wonder where you are from and where you are going?”
"Eh!"
Guo Jia was stunned.
He clearly saw Gongsun Jing galloping away, so why did he turn back and block his way?
"Is it inconvenient to tell?"
Gongsun Jing pressed the sword at his waist and asked.
"Haha!"
Guo Jia took a sip of wine and smiled faintly."I'm Yingchuan's talented actor, a subordinate of General Cao, the prefect of East County. I went to the North Sea to admire the glory of Confucius 'descendants, and now I'm preparing to return to East County.”
"Prince, I've heard of this person!" Zhao Yun's pupils constricted.”
"Talent for acting?"
Gongsun Jing's eyes were full of mockery.
