240 Gongsun Zan's Ambition 3

After hearing this, Guan Jing also said, "Lord, I also think that Lu Ning will not attack our army. Although he has eliminated the Huns coalition now, he should have lost his troops and generals. Facing the 150,000 Hun cavalry, his 50,000 army is probably not left. Didn't it say that Lu Ning only brought back 20,000 troops? That means he lost at least 30,000 troops. Moreover, after he recovered the northern land, he still needs a large army to guard the northern land to strictly prevent Dong Zhuo's attack on him, and also prevent Wang Kuang from Hanoi and Yuan Shao's army temporarily in Hanoi. Lu Ning must rest at this time and will not easily fight with our army unless our army takes the initiative to cause trouble for him."

After hearing the analysis of the two, Gongsun Zan smiled and said with a smile: "Since you said that Lu Ning would not attack our army for the time being, then our next step is to attack Liaodong, take Liaodong under our hands, and relieve our army's worries? Or continue to advance towards Jizhou next to us?"

After hearing this, Guan Jing was stunned. What a joke, is it that easy to attack Jizhou? Guan Jing shook his head and said, "Lord, we should rest now and not start a war anymore. Our army has no food to support greater war consumption."

After hearing this, Gongsun Fan laughed and said, "What's the difficulty of food and supplies? Isn't it possible to have everything if I copy a few large households in Youzhou?"

After hearing this, Tian Yu shook his head and said, "My lord, this method must not be done. Now that we have just won the Youzhou, the people's hearts are unstable. If we offend the big households at this time, it will be even more unfavorable to governance and stabilize the people's hearts. Maybe there will be riots in the people. If there are big households in the lead, the consequences will be really unimaginable. What we want now is a smooth transition and it will take time to deal with these problems."

Guan Jing said again: "Master, Jizhou is not easy to attack. Once our army attacks Jizhou, the booming Yuan Shao will sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. It is impossible. Han Fu is an old official of the Yuan family. Yuan Shao will definitely send troops to support Han Fu. Besides, Han Fu has great talents such as Tian Feng, Ju Su, Xun Chen, Shen Pei, Xin Ping, Xin Pi, etc., so it will be easy to succeed. Lord, please give up the plan to attack Jizhou and don't make you angry."

After hearing this, Yan Gang said, "Lord, then we will send troops to attack Gongsun Du in Liaodong. This will relieve our army's worries. Although Gongsun Du and his lord are our own family, the Gongsun Du family has always been eyeing Youbeiping, and they will take a bite at any time and ask him to bite us. When I enter, we will attack him first."

Gongsun Zan has always had a very hatred for the Gongsun Du family. His mother is a concubine and has no status in the Gongsun family. The Gongsun Zan brothers were angry with the Gongsun family since childhood. Now they are a princes, and Gongsun Zan also wants to avenge this hatred.

When Gongsun Zan heard that I had nothing to do with Yuan Shao. Even when I was in the Great Alliance of Princes, I looked down on what he did. What did he send someone to me now? Gongsun Zan couldn't figure it out, so he asked the guards to bring the messenger in. After seeing the person clearly, he found that the person who came was the famous famous Guo Tu and Guo Gongze. This was surprising.

Gongsun Zan arranged a seat for Guo Tu and said, "How come Mr. Gongze has time to come to play in my remote areas? It wouldn't be that Yuan Benchu ​​opened it. If that's the case, the gentleman will be here for me, and I will treat him as a guest of honor."

After hearing this, Guo Tu laughed and said, "General Gongsun is so serious. My lord, Benchu, treats me very well. I will definitely serve the general in the next life and serve in front of the general's saddle."

Guan Jing despised Guo Tu for a moment, and had no good feelings for Guo Tu. He was sinister and cunning, and had a lot of bad things. "What's the big deal about Mr. Gongze coming to my lord?" Guan Jing asked Guo Tu.

Guo Tu calmed down and replied seriously: "This time I am here to send a big gift to the general of the Duke, who is sent by my lord Benchu."

When Gongsun Zan heard this, beloved, is Yuan Shao that good? He locked the door more than anyone else, how could he be kind to give me a big gift? Isn’t this a joke? After hearing this, Gongsun Yue said, “Mr. Gongze, what big gift is your lord going to give my elder brother? It won’t be a pancake falling from the sky! This is different from Yuan Benchu’s usual practice.”

Everyone laughed after hearing this. Guo Tu was not angry, but thought to himself that when I played with you all in my palms, you wouldn't be able to laugh.

Guo Tu glanced at Gongsun Zan and others and said, "I am indeed here to give General Gongsun a big gift this time. Is it a gift? It's half a Jizhou! General Gongsun thinks half a Jizhou is a big gift?"

As soon as Guo Tu said, Gongsun Zan and his subordinates were speechless. He couldn't say a word for a long time. What a joke? What a gift half of Jizhou, is that big? Is Yuan Shao that good? Besides, why don't Yuan Shao himself want such a good thing?

After Tian Yu came over, he glanced at Guo Tu and said, "Mr. Gongze, what are you kidding? Jizhou is under the jurisdiction of Lord Han Fu. What right does Yuan Benchu ​​have to give my lord half of Jizhou? You are here to play with us, right?"

After hearing this, Gongsun Zan immediately glared at Guo Tu. You kid dare to come to me to tease me. You really don’t want to live. You dare to make such jokes. If you think you are a famous scholar, I dare not chop your head.

When Guo Tu saw Gongsun Zan's appearance, he laughed and said, "General Gongsun, do you think I'm full and I'm going to be wild on your territory. Am I that stupid? Do I dare to joke with my own head? What I said is true to send half of Jizhou to the general."

Gongsun Yue also heard it now. Knowing that Guo Tu was not a good intention, he said, "Mr. Gongze, please make it clear, how did Yuan Benchu ​​give half of Jizhou to my elder brother? If you can't say it well, don't blame me for not saving face for you."

Seeing that Gongsun Zan's face became increasingly ugly, Guo Tu knew that the rude man was about to get angry, so he said, "General Gongsun, my lord asked me to discuss with the general. We formed an alliance with each other and used troops to Jizhou together. After conquering Jizhou, the general and my lord would have equally divided Jizhou. Is this great gift not heavy enough?"

When Guan Jing heard that there was such a good thing in the world, there must be some deceptions, so he said to Guo Tu: "Mr. Gongze, as far as I know, Lord Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, is an old official of Yuan. Why did Yuan Benchu ​​attack Han Fu's Jizhou? This seems unreasonable. Besides, Yuan Benchu ​​has always cherished his reputation. Isn't he afraid that outsiders will say that Yuan Benchu ​​robs others' territory? This will damage his reputation."
