The porridge stall opened.
Countless people had already gathered in front of Linyi City.
All of them were lined up with fiery gazes, waiting to receive their porridge.
"Prince!"
Lin Yi County Magistrate stood nervously at the side.
His gaze would occasionally fall on Gongsun Jing, as if he wanted to see the demeanor of the eldest young master of the Gongsun family.
"Yes!"
Gongsun Jing turned to look at the porridge stall in the distance and said in a deep voice,""Write a document to report to Gaotang about how much food we have spent today. I will get Bohai to transfer it over directly. It will definitely not affect the operation of Linyi City!”
"Here!"
The county magistrate heaved a sigh of relief.
One hundred thousand Yellow Turban soldiers emptied Linyi's granary with just one meal.
If it wasn't for the fact that it was the autumn harvest, he would probably have gone to the homes of the commoners to distribute the grain reserves.
Gongsun Jing knocked on the table and said lightly,""Guan Hai, assign 5,000 citizens to the Linyi County Magistrate and let them settle down here. The fertile fields, houses, and grain seeds will all be allocated by the county government. In the future, they will return some every year. After all, there are too many people, and the pressure on the county government is also very great!”
"Here!"
Guan Hai said respectfully.
The night was silent.
The 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers had their fill.
With the sky as the blanket and the ground as the bed, they spent the night in the wilderness.
The next day.
At dawn.
The army was already heading towards Gaotang City.
The movement of the 100,000-strong army was no longer a secret.
Under the scouting of many scouts, they immediately reported back to the various dukedoms.
At this moment.
The Youzhou military camp welcomed a guest.
Outside the gate, Yan Gang led the envoy from Dongjun into the camp.
"General!"
Xi Zhicai's gaze swept past the Youzhou infantry and the two thousand white horse followers in the distance. He asked doubtfully,""General Gongsun has already returned to the Bohai Sea. I heard that the plains are under the command of the young general.”
"Sir, he's too arrogant!" Xiahou Dun said in a low voice.”
"No!"
Yan Gang smiled faintly." There are more than 100,000 Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, and they have always been a sore point for all the counties. The prince has arranged for the Yellow Turbans to meet Guan Hai in Linyi. He should be returning soon. He will be back at the camp at noon tomorrow at most!"”
"Oh?"
"Meeting Guan Hai?"
Xi Zhicai was slightly shocked and said in surprise,""Could it be that Young General wants to take over the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans?”
"Perhaps!"
Yan Gang said ambiguously.
Everyone walked.
Not long after, they arrived in front of the spirit shed.
Xi Zhicai inserted the incense stick into the sacrificial vessel and bowed.""General Yue has been guarding the border for many years and is also a famous existence in the northern border. I didn't expect that he would die in the hands of Yuan Benchu. The Lord is concerned about General Yue's past, so he sent us to pay our respects.”
"Haha!"
Yan Gang smiled faintly." Then stay for a day. When the prince returns to the camp, it won't be too late for you to return to East County!"”
"Is it convenient?"
Xi Zhicai said with a deep gaze.
Yan Gang looked in the direction of the Qinghe River and said indifferently,""The Gongsun Family and the Yuan Family will have a war sooner or later. The Crown Prince has sent out a proclamation and General Cao has sent people to mourn General Yue, which means that there is no grudge between us. Youzhou will naturally not neglect our distinguished guests.”
"Sorry for disturbing you!"
Xi Zhicai bowed slightly.
Night fell.
In the Youzhou military camp, only the patrol guards were left patrolling.
A military tent was brightly lit.
Xi Zhicai raised his brush and thought for a while. He placed the brush on the pen rack and smiled bitterly."Youzhou is indeed a prefecture with a large number of cavalries. I'm afraid that only Western Liang and Bing Province can compare to it!”
"Yes!"
Xiahou Dun's eyes were filled with fear.
"How is it?"
Xi Zhicai turned around and asked.
" Sir," Xiahou Dun said in a deep voice," the Youzhou military camp is not fortified. Either Gongsun Jing and Yan Gang are mediocre people, or they know that there will be no war now, or they are luring the enemy to attack the camp!”
"War?"
"I'm afraid it'll take more than half a month!"
Xi Zhicai shook his head and smiled bitterly."Gongsun Changping's denunciation has directly disrupted all of Yuan Shao's plans. I'm afraid he's currently busy mobilizing his troops and preparing to split them into three groups!”
"Three routes?"
Xiahou Dun asked in puzzlement.
Xi Zhicai nodded and said," Zhang Yan is just a boor in Pingyuan, Bohai, and Taihang Mountains. He will fall to whichever side is stronger. Once Yuan Shao shows signs of weakness, Zhang Yan will definitely lead his army to attack Changshan. Therefore, Jizhou has to guard against the Black Mountain Army. Moreover, we did not expect Gongsun Jing to actually want to appease the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou. If he really succeeded, Yuan Tan would definitely be defeated in Qinghe. Fortunately, our lord did not ally with Yuan Shao to send troops!”
"I don't understand!"
" I don't understand," Xiahou Dun said unhappily." How can you be so afraid of someone you've never met before?!"”
"This is war!"
"Not just on the battlefield!”
Xi Zhicai said fearfully," To be able to control the situation and change the outcome of a battle, he is the strongest among the strongest. Because what he sees is not only the victory and defeat of a war, but the direction of the entire war. Gongsun Changping is far more terrifying than his father. I'm afraid that he will be the strongest opponent for the lord to dominate the Central Plains in the future!”
"If not?"
Xiahou Dun's expression turned ruthless.
Xi Zhicai said in fear," General, don't talk nonsense. We can't become enemies with this kind of person unless we have the confidence to win. Besides, how can we fight him with the strength of a county? Don't be rash tomorrow!"”
"Yes!"
Xiahou Dun nodded.
