Rangers of the Three Kingdoms - C395

As soon as Zhang Fei entered the Liaodong, he immediately ordered the herald to notify the eleven counties of Liaodong. Anyone who fails to do so within three days shall be deemed to be a rebel and shall be exterminated at that time.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had already guarded the Liaodong for five years. Back then, they had wiped out the Urushion s, fresh inferior s and even mounted bandit s in their territory. The bloody slaughter not only scared the enemy, but also shocked their own people.

Because Yang Lin was in charge of the three-way system, after he took over the Liaodong, he did not manage to immediately take over the counties of the Liaodong, and Gongsun Du did not have the ability to immediately attack them. They had only sent people to the various counties to announce Gongsun Du’s orders, but the counties were still waiting, they did not believe that the hussar general would allow Gongsun Du to occupy the Liaodong.

When the County Lieutenant s from the various counties received Zhang Fei’s order, they were naturally ecstatic. Those who were still hesitating or even preparing to submit to Gongsun Du, immediately changed their attitude and ordered their troops to rush to the Xiangping City, they did not dare to provoke Zhang Fei. If they let Zhang Fei become a traitor, they wouldn’t even have a place to redress their grievances.

The Gongsun Family was a large clan of the Youzhou. Ever since Yang Lin took charge of the Youzhou, his clan’s power had been greatly weakened. Although there were many people from the Gongsun Family who joined the Surveillance History’s meeting, they were only a small minority that did not have enough influence on the entire Surveillance History’s meeting system.

Gongsun Du, who was originally from Liaodong, followed his father to Xuan Tu. He was recognized by the Xuan Tu Gongsun Jiu and helped him to learn from his master and get married and have children. Afterwards, he was called a filial son and became a minor official in the Xuantu County. He was promoted and recommended by Gongsun, and was soon promoted to court.

In the imperial court, Gongsun Du was appointed as the Shang Shu Lang. He was previously appointed as the Jizhou Thorn History, had a high position, and became an illustrious person. However, he was once again removed from his post due to rumours. It was only until the sixth year of Zhongping where Dong Zhuo took control of the imperial government and was recommended by his fellow countryman, Dong Zhuo, for the purpose of scheming against Yang Lin, that he was able to return.

This noon, Gongsun Du was discussing matters with his trusted aides Liu Yi and Li Min in taiwai Palace when a rumbling sound suddenly came from the northwest side. The sound was getting closer and closer, and Gongsun Du felt that the Xiangping City seemed to be gently trembling as well. He couldn’t help but stand up and frown as he looked northwest.

“Is it thunder?”

Liu Yi and Li Min shook their heads, their expressions becoming extremely solemn. It was not thunder, it was the clatter of horses’ hooves, the clatter of heavy cavalry. Judging from the rumbling sounds of the horses’ hooves, the attacking force was at least fifteen thousand men.

“Clank, clank, clank …”

Almost at the same time, the sound of a gong came from outside as well. It was extremely terrifying and ear-piercing. This was a signal for the arrival of a large number of enemies. Furthermore, the person who had struck the gong seemed to have been scared out of his wits and had lost all sense of order.

“It must be the cavalry of Youzhou.”

Li Min laughed bitterly and shook his head, revealing a look of pain. Li Min was also a general, and had always been Gongsun Du’s long history. He had also once participated in battles to calm the yellow scarves, and was no stranger to the cavalry. As of now, almost all of the Youzhou’s vicinity were settled by Yang Lin, other than Yang Lin’s cavalry, there would not be a second army like this one.

As expected, before long, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the taiwai Palace. It turned out to be Gongsun Du’s servants rushing over, and loudly reported: “Old master, a large group of cavalry of Youzhou have arrived. A preliminary estimate puts the number of cavalry of Youzhou at around twenty thousand. ”

Gongsun Du couldn’t help but take in a breath of cold air. Liu Yi and Li Min also looked at each other in dismay. Yang Lin’s reaction was really fast, and was even so intense. For a mere Liaodong City, he actually sent over twenty thousand riders!

“Come, let’s go to the city wall and take a look.”

Gongsun Du forced himself to calm down, waved his hand, signalling for the servants to return to the city walls. Then he brought Liu Yi and Li Min to rush to West Gate. As he had just arrived at the Liaodong, he did not have the time to establish a set of foundation. Other than his servants and clansmen, Gongsun Du was the only one he trusted with Gongsun Du.

Due to Gongsun Du’s arrival, Xiangping City was already very restless. But now that the gong sounded the alarm, the city became even more flustered. However, Gongsun Du didn’t see any fear in the eyes of the commoners. On the contrary, they seemed to be looking forward to it.

The only people running about the city were Gongsun Du’s servants and clansmen. They did not have many people, and when all the servants in Gongsun Family added up, there were only around a thousand of them. However, they had more than two thousand Liaodong soldiers under their control, so it would be difficult for them to defend the city walls.

Gongsun Du climbed up the city wall and looked at the black mass of cavalry of Youzhou, immediately feeling the indescribable pressure. When he came to the Youzhou, he had already anticipated the resistance from the cavalry of Youzhou and was prepared to deal with Yang Lin’s retaliation. However, when danger approaches, he was still unable to control his emotions.

Although he was a little nervous, he knew that the cavalry of Youzhou would not be able to rush up. If he was in a flat land area and suddenly saw the numerous cavalry soldiers spread out in front of him, no matter how brave he was, he would probably collapse.

Although there were approximately twenty thousand cavalry of Youzhou s, the queue was very neat and quiet. cavalry of Youzhou raised the Pu Dao in her hands high up. Its sharp blade reflected a dazzling light, reflecting on the flat city wall, giving off a strong killing intent.

Liu Yi, Li Min sat on the wall, staring at the slowly opening cavalry of Youzhou with an awe-inspiring expression, their hearts somewhat panicking. This army that had eliminated the Urushion, conquered the Gaoguellian, and chased the fresh inferior away. Their thick killing intent truly terrified them.

Gongsun Du turned his head, only to see his family and clansmen feeling the pressure from the cavalry of Youzhou. They were not real warriors in the first place, so they became even more panicked in front of the strong cavalry of Youzhou. This was because their opponent was none other than the cavalry of Youzhou who was invincible throughout the world.

They were all from Liaodong, and had seen the ferocity of the cavalry of Youzhou with their own eyes. Urushion and fresh inferior in Youzhou were rampant for a hundred years, but under the cavalry of Youzhou’s blade, other than death, they could only surrender. No one dared to disobey cavalry of Youzhou.

“Lord Taishang, it’s rumored that cavalry of Youzhou is exceptionally fierce. Seeing it today, it really lives up to its reputation …” Liu Yi looked at Zhang Fei’s army and could not help but shiver: “Seeing that Zhang Fei is approaching so fiercely, Lord Taishang has already made his plans. Send someone to ask Zhang Fei first.”

Without Liu Yi’s reminder, Gongsun Du understood the seriousness of the situation. After pondering for a long time, he decided to send a small official to ask Zhang Fei why they were surrounding him. After all, he was a taiwai appointed by the imperial government, so Zhang Fei wouldn’t dare to do anything to him. It was just that he had forgotten that Youzhou did not recognize Dong Zhuo’s government at all.

But before Gongsun Du could decide who to send out of the city, Zhang Fei had already led more than 100 of his personal guards to the Xiangping City. When he was just one arrow away from the city wall, Zhang Fei stopped the horse reins. He glanced arrogantly at Gongsun Du and the others on the city walls and bellowed.

I am cavalry of Youzhou’s field officer, Zhang Fei. Under the orders of the hussar general, I have matters to attend to in the city, so hurry up and open the city gate for me. If you delay the great matter of the hussar general, I will pull your heads out! ”

When Gongsun Du heard Zhang Fei’s curses, he could not help but get infuriated. He was also a stately official in the imperial court, how could he endure such humiliation? Just as he was about to go up and shout, he was suddenly pulled by Liu Yi. Lord Taishang, don’t lower yourself to the level of a military man, just let me talk to him. ”

“Lord Commander, I am Liaodong County Cheng Liu Yi. I wonder what big matter Lord Commander is, do we still need to lead an army into the city? ” Liu Yi walked forward and said loudly to Zhang Fei: “If Lord Commander wants to enter the city, please order the army to retreat. I will immediately release Lord Commander into the city.”

“Bullshit, this Xiangping City is my territory, I can enter as I please, I can leave as I please, when is it your turn to speak?” Hurry up and open the door for laozi. If you dare speak any more nonsense, be careful of your head! ” Zhang Fei raised the whip in his hand, pointed it at Liu Yi and cursed.

Liu Yi was truly worthy of being a cultivated scribe. Facing Zhang Fei’s rudeness, he did not care about it at all, but said indifferently: “Lord Commander, I offer you my services. Now that Liaodong Taishang is Master Gongsun Du, if you want to enter the city, you still have to ask for Master Gongsun Du’s permission.”

“Go and tell Gongsun Du, I don’t recognize Dong Zhuo’s name. If he still wanted to live, if he still wanted to live, then he would obediently roll out of Liaodong and never come back. “Otherwise, when my city is destroyed, the Gongsun clan will be exterminated!”

When Zhang Fei heard Liu Yi take out the emperor to scare him, he could not help but be furious. Sun Jian would even dare to kill an official who accepted the fate of Hanling Emperor, not to mention Gongsun Du or Dong Zhuo who accepted his fate, killing him would be easy for others.

Seeing Zhang Fei’s scolding, Gongsun Du was both angry and afraid. It was only until now that he remembered Xu Rong’s words. Dong Zhuo sending him to the Liaodong was basically asking him to die, was he really going to just run away from the Liaodong in desperation?

“Immediately gather all the young and strong men in the city and ascend the city walls to protect the city.” At the same time, they captured all the families of cavalry of Youzhou. If they dared to attack the city, they could let their families defend. Everyone says that the cavalry of Youzhou is strong, but I want to see if they dare to kill even their families!

Master Yang Ping was now a Surveillance History of the Liaodong County, and lived with his family there. Gongsun Du had suddenly occupied the Liaodong Taishang Palace and was controlling it, which made Master Yang Ping very angry. After all, these officials were chosen by them, so their relationship with the hussar general was not really that great.

Back then, in order to find a future for his nephew, he had once directed a curve to present to his nephew. But it was because of this curvature of the gift that made him convinced of Yang Lin’s strength. After Yang Lin implemented the Surveillance History System, he became Yang Lin’s most ardent supporter.

That night, after dinner, he called his two sons over to the study room. “Hussar General Yang Lin used the Surveillance History Conference to manage the Liaodong, but Gongsun Du used the Emperor’s decree to occupy the Liaodong. Now that the hussar general’s Great General Zhang Fei’s army is outside of the city, and the great war is at hand, it is very possible that the people of the Liaodong will lose their lives in the war, what do you think should be done? “
