Chapter 23 Follow me to plunder the royal court of the Southern Huns(2/2)

Gongsun Zan let go and said angrily: "Zhang Chun, the traitor, first rebelled against Zhongshan and then against Yuyang. I swear to kill him!"

Zhang Wen's envoy Wu Jie quickly advised: "General Gongsun, the situation in Chang'an is tense, we should focus on the Sizhou war first!"

Gongsun Zan struck hard with his right fist and his left palm, which seemed very difficult. He could decide for himself what was light or heavy.

"Your envoy is unaware that Zan is from the Lingzhi in western Liaoning. All the young and old in the family are from the Lingzhi. If the thieves and soldiers come, won't they be harmed by them?"

Wu Jie struggled for a moment, obviously wanting to try harder. After all, in his opinion, the priority of the Chang'an rebellion must be higher than that of Youzhou.

"Since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety. Generals should put state affairs first," Wu Jie said.

"Report——" Another messenger came outside the door.

"Inform the general that Gong Qichou, the guard of Wuhuan School, has been killed by Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju! The rebel army currently has more than 10,000 troops and is marching towards Tuyin County, the capital of Youbeiping County."

"How unreasonable!" Gongsun Zan stepped forward to get the military report and read it again himself.

Youbeiping County is only a few dozen miles away from Lingzhi in western Liaoning. If you march quickly, you can reach it in one day, and Lingzhi is the only place that Youbeiping must pass when entering western Liaoning.

Seeing that Gongsun Zan was in such a difficult situation, and that the rebellion in Youzhou was an urgent matter, Wu Jie could no longer persuade him, so he shook his head and left the tent.

"Send troops quickly to attack the thieves!" Gongsun Zan muttered and shouted outside the checkroom: "Send the order! The cavalry must assemble!"

"General! There is a visitor outside the camp!" the guard reported.

"Who?"

"The visitor calls himself Liu Bei and says he is a classmate of the general."

Xuande! Gongsun Zan was so happy that he immediately left the tent and walked towards the camp gate.

"Xuande!" Gongsun Zan trotted up.

"Brother, you're all right!" Liu Bei said with a smile. The two of them held each other's arms and tried their best, but neither could restrain the other, and both burst out laughing.

"Why is Xuande here?" Gongsun Zan asked, looking at the two people behind Liu Bei.

"The Yellow Turban in Jizhou has been decided, and I have nothing to do, so I went back to Zhuojun to have a look. I miss my brother, so I came here to visit. I'm here to introduce you to your brother. These two are Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide. They are all my sworn brothers."

Gongsun Zan bowed his hands to the two of them and said, "Xuande, please come in and talk!" After saying that, he grabbed Liu Bei's wrist and led him into the tent.

"I heard that Xuande defeated the Zhangjiao Six Ding Liujia Formation in Guangping and was commended for his meritorious service and was awarded the position of Julu County Lieutenant. I am very happy and congratulated!" Gongsun Zan said with a smile.

"Lucky, lucky." Liu Bei said with a smile.

Liu Bei entered the military camp and saw a busy scene, which seemed to be a gathering situation.

"Where do you want to go, brother?" Liu Bei asked.

"Xuande's eyes are like a torch. To be honest with Xuande, Youzhou is in chaos!" Gongsun Zan said, sighed, and walked into the tent, "Xuande, two brothers, please take a seat!"

The four of them sat down, Gongsun Zan got straight to the point, and continued the topic just now: "Zan has just received the notice that Zhang Chun, the former Prime Minister of Zhongshan, and Zhang Ju, the prefect of Taishan, raised troops in their hometown to rebel, and together with Lord Wuhuan Qiu Liju, they have killed the guardian.

Wuhuan Colonel Lieutenant Gong Qichou."

When Xuande heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across his calm face. Wuhuan actually rebelled!

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other in confusion.

Gongsun Zan looked at the three of them. He didn't seem surprised at such a big event. Especially Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, there were expressions of surprise on their faces.

Gongsun Zan was a little puzzled. It was naturally impossible for such military information to be sent to Liu Bei, an official from another state, but why did he remain unmoved?

"Did Xuande know about this?" Gongsun Zan asked confused.

Liu Bei glanced at Guan Zhang, who had big eyes and small eyes, and knew that the expressions of these two people betrayed him. "To be honest, brother, when I returned to Zhuojun this time, I visited relatives and friends just as a pretext. I came here because of Wuhuan's affairs.

Come."

Gongsun Zan was even more puzzled after hearing this. Are you here because of the Wuhuan incident? When you set out, Wuhuan had not yet started to stir up trouble, right?

Could it be that you, Liu Xuande, can predict the future? I have been friends with you for nearly ten years, but I have never seen Liu Xuande with such ability, Gongsun Zan thought.

"Xuan De must not be joking. When the military report arrives, you will follow. How could you predict it in advance?" Gongsun Zan joked.

Liu Bei thought about it and found that there was no other content in the letter from Mr. Liu Junzheng. Gongsun Bogui was not an outsider, and it was difficult for him to explain this matter. He might as well give the letter to him to read, and it wouldn't be a waste of words.

Liu Bei took out the letter and handed it to Gongsun Zan.

"This letter is written by Liu Junzheng, the prefect of Yanmen, to my brother. My brother will know it as soon as he sees it!"

Gongsun Zan opened the letter with doubtful eyes and quickly glanced at it. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by the words——

"...In today's world, there is chaos from all directions. The Qiang, Hu, Xianbei, and Xiongnu have all rebelled against the Han and attacked the Han. The Wuhuan tribes in Youzhou will be ready to make a move and will not miss the opportunity..."
