477 The rain is coming and the wind is full (14)
From the morning, Zhang Yan kept talking to Jia Xu about the evening. The two of them sat on the ground and talked with each other. Then they discussed how to conquer Liaodong, and finally made a conclusion and prepared to act according to Zhang Yan's original plan three days later.
At this moment, Gongsun Gong had also returned to Xiangping City in Liaodong. As soon as he returned to Xiangping City, Gongsun Gong immediately went to see Gongsun Kang.
Gongsun Kang was holding a feast with his subordinates in the hall. Gongsun Gong suddenly broke in from outside. Seeing the scene in front of him, he immediately said angrily: "It's a disaster, do you still have the leisure to drink and have fun here?"
Then, Gongsun Gong drove all the people who were singing and dancing in the hall out of the hall and said angrily: "Get out of here, get out of here quickly!"
Gongsun Gong is Gongsun Kang's younger brother, and the relationship between them is very harmonious. Gongsun Kang is brave and fierce, Gongsun Gong is resourceful, and the two brothers of the Gongsun family have always been together. However, Gongsun Kang is the eldest son and Gongsun Gong is the second son, so Gongsun Kang is the first candidate in the issue of replacing the title of the Marquis of Liaodong and inheriting his father's business. Gongsun Gong doesn't care about this and does not compete with his elder brother Gongsun Kang.
However, Gongsun Kang did not treat this younger brother badly. On the contrary, he relied heavily on this younger brother, and Gongsun Gong also tried his best to assist his brother Gongsun Kang.
Therefore, Gongsun Gong was also speaking loudly in Liaodong. Apart from Gongsun Kang, he was the boss.
When Gongsun Kang saw Gongsun Gong coming in so much anger, he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"What happened? Something big happened!" Gongsun Gong walked straight to Gongsun Kang and said angrily.
Next, Gongsun Gong told all the experiences along the way, and even Zhang Yan asked him to do things that he was introverted, and said that if he didn't do this at that time, he would probably die.
In addition, Gongsun Gong even told him the plan that Zhang Yan told him. After hearing this, Gongsun Kang and others were stunned. If what Gongsun Gong said was true, then they would not even know how they died.
Fortunately, Gongsun Gong is Gongsun Kang's bloody brother and his elbows will not turn outwards.
"Fortunately, I am smart. After realizing that the situation is wrong, I immediately pretended to be greedy for life and fear of death. Otherwise, I would not have the life to come back alive?" Gongsun Gong said with lingering fear.
Gongsun Kang held Gongsun Gong with one hand, and said intimately, "Thank you so much this time, and Brother Wei didn't expect such a thing to happen. If you really can't come back, Brother Wei will blame himself for the rest of his life. Fortunately, you came back, and Brother Wei finally fell down with his heart..."
Gongsun Gong said: "Brother is here to enjoy the singing and dancing, and drink and have fun with your subordinates. Is it just to dispel your worries?"
Gongsun Kang was suddenly unable to get out of the market by Gongsun Gong, and his smile on his face became stiff. He hurriedly said, "The most urgent task now is to deal with the Han army. Since Zhang Yan is coming and we have to deal with us, then we should take action first, attack in advance, and catch Zhang Yan off guard..."
"Yes, kill Zhang Yan off guard!" The others also echoed.
Gongsun Gong suddenly said, "No! Our troops are limited. Even if we take action first and catch Zhang Yan off guard, we may win one after another at the beginning, but when Zhang Yan reacts and transfers troops, we will find it difficult to deal with it."
Gongsun Kang stopped smiling, frowned, and asked, "What do you think you should do? You can't sit still, right?"
Gongsun Gong said: "I have already thought about it, so we will give Zhang Yan a plan. We have fully understood his plan. We can take action in advance and arrange everything. When the time comes, we will capture Zhang Yan in one fell swoop. As long as we capture Zhang Yan, the enemy will be headless. And I don't believe that they will not take care of Zhang Yan's personal safety. No matter how many enemies there are, it will be useless. Moreover, we can also hold Zhang Yan hostage and let them do whatever they want. At that time, the whole situation is what we say. Entering the court is also a matter of waiting."
After hearing this, Gongsun Kang and others burst into laughter and said happily: "This plan is very wonderful, this plan is very wonderful!"
So, Gongsun Kang began to prepare for the major event of rebellion against Zhang Yan according to Gongsun Gong's plan, and used the forged imperial edict of the empress dowager to shout the slogan of "clearing the king" and called himself "King of Liao", which officially kicked off the rebellion.
In addition, Gongsun Kang also sent people to the Dongyi countries in accordance with Gongsun Gong's suggestion, requiring all countries to send troops to cooperate, and ordered people to replace all the flags and military uniforms with new ones, unified the "Liao" as the national name, and actively dispatched troops to lay a solid foundation for the strategy after the Third Day.
However, the self-righteous Gongsun brothers did not know that they were already at the forefront of the storm and would perish if they were not careful.
In fact, Zhang Yan did not easily believe Gongsun Gong, but was extremely suspicious of him. It is precisely because of this that Zhang Yan remembered to use Gongsun Gong to achieve his goals.
At the same time, Zhang Yan also gave Gongsun Gong a chance to forgive himself. If Gongsun Gong followed his instructions, Gongsun Gong would not die after pacifying Liaodong. But if Gongsun Gong did not do this, he would inevitably be eliminated by Zhang Yan.
Obviously, Gongsun Gong chose the latter. He can still forgive his evil deeds, but he can do it himself and cannot survive.
However, Gongsun Gong did not know that all this was in Zhang Yan's plan, nor did he know that all this was an opportunity for self-redeem that Zhang Yan specially arranged for him.
Zhang Yan's eyeliner has been installed in Xiangping City. A Jinyiwei has been dormant here for several years and has become a guest of honor for the Gongsun brothers. At today's banquet, the Jinyiwei was also among them. Therefore, Zhang Yan knew every move of the Gongsun brothers.
It is precisely because of the outstanding work of this Jinyiwei that Zhang Yan was able to master first-hand information well, so he decided to start with Gongsun Gong when pacifying Liaodong.
As soon as Gongsun Gong left Liaodong, he was targeted by the so-called "pirates". Everything after that was just a show and was performed for Gongsun Gong. However, Gongsun Gong, who thought he was very smart, did not know that he had become an important piece in the Liaodong game.
All the movements of the Gongsun brothers in Liaodong were quickly conveyed to Zhang Yan's ears in Jicheng by the dormant Jinyiwei.
After receiving the secret letter, Zhang Yan quickly finished reading it, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself: "It's true that's not what I expected."
So, Zhang Yan immediately discussed with Jia Xu and arranged troops based on new information.
At the same time, Zhang Yan took Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang to leave Jicheng together and headed for Changli.
The troops of Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Rou, Tian Yu, Tian Chou and others were all secretly gathered in Changli City. When Zhang Yan, Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang arrived, the group of people immediately promoted the tent to discuss matters. Zhang Yan was determined and decisively arranged the deployment of the generals' troops, and what should each of them do.
All the generals took the orders one after another, and they were ready to go. They also knew that Zhang Yan did not bring any soldiers and soldiers to rely on them all. They were all very excited and wanted to perform well in front of Zhang Yan.
After giving the order, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Rou, Tian Yu, Tian Chou and others dispersed and took their troops to take secret operations.
Zhang Yan told Gongsun Gong that if Gongsun Gong asked Gongsun Gong to trick Gongsun Kang into Wuwu County, he would wait for Gongsun Kang's arrival in Wuwu County. As long as Gongsun Kang enters the city, he would arrest Gongsun Kang and behead him on the spot, and Gongsun Gong would be a great achievement.
Therefore, Wuwu County became an important place for this confrontation between Zhang Yan and Gongsun Kang.
Of course, Gongsun Gong did not follow Zhang Yan's instructions, but instead took the initiative to make Gongsun Kang lead his troops to set up heavy troops near Wuwu County, set up ambush, and surrounded Zhang Yan tightly in Wuwu County.
According to Gongsun Gong's estimate, Zhang Yan would definitely not lead too many soldiers. As long as he controls Zhang Yan, the war will be won without a fight.
Next, Zhang Yan took Zhuge Liang, Zhang He and twenty carefully selected elite soldiers, rode war horses, and set off from Changli City and went directly to Wuwu County.
Wuwu County is located east of Changli City and is affiliated with Liaodong County. However, since the Gongsun family's forces are concentrated east of the Liaohe River and large areas of land west of the Liaohe River have been directly abandoned, Wuwu County has become a homeless land. The Han army stationed in Changli also abides by Zhang Yan's instructions and will never easily invade the boundary. Wuwu County has become a paradise for nomadic peoples. At least for more than a year, no one has come to disturb the place.
However, Wuwu County is about to usher in a big battle today. Over the county, there are red clouds, and the lead-gray clouds are very low, as if there is a feeling of black clouds pressing against the city and it also seems to indicate that the war is coming.
With Wuwu County as the center, within a radius of ten miles, 30,000 elite soldiers from Gongsun were ambushed, quietly lying in the dark, waiting for the big fish to enter the net.
At noon, Zhang Yan, Zhuge Liang, Zhang He and others were traveling from west to east in a mighty manner, walking on the road to Wuwu County, less than five miles away from Wuwu County.
On both sides of the avenue, the Gongsun soldiers hiding in the dense forest were all ready to go, looking at Zhang Yan and others who had just passed by, waiting for the signal to start a war.
Gongsun Gong and Gongsun Kang stayed in a dense forest outside Wuwu County. Gongsun Kang looked at the gloomy weather and said to Gongsun Gong: "It seems that God also knows what we are going to do today, so he gave us a bad weather. After killing Zhang Yan, it should turn from cloudy to sunny."
"Brother, we are not going to kill Zhang Yan, but to catch Zhang Yan. If we kill Zhang Yan, we will not be able to threaten Zhang Yan's subordinates without chips. As for the rest of the accompanying people, we can kill them all." Gongsun Gong said.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Yan and his group have arrived, less than three miles away from here." A scout immediately ran over, knelt in front of Gongsun Kang, and said aloud.
Gongsun Kang laughed and said, "It's great. Send the order immediately and be prepared. As soon as Zhang Yan and the others enter the city, they will immediately launch an attack! Encircle the entire Wuwu County!"
"Here!" (To be continued.)
