Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 710: Forty thousand elite troops from Liaodong County!

Gongsun Gong talked with Gongsun Kang for a while before leaving the mansion.

After leaving the mansion, he was about to go to the military camp, but he met a figure at the city gate——

Guan Ning.

Gongsun Gong rode forward, frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Guan Ning said, "I knew that the Second Young Master would personally lead the troops to Changli."

Gongsun Gong sneered, "Isn't this nonsense?"

"My father used to lead the troops, but now he has unfortunately passed away, and Zhang Sui is right in front of me. If I don't go, who will?"

"Why, Lord Guan doesn't believe in my ability?"

"Or is it that Lord Guan is also worried about Xu Rong like my father?"

Guan Ning raised his head and looked at Gongsun Gong with a complicated expression.

He really wanted to say, if I was really afraid of Xu Rong, I would not have taken the initiative to stand up at the meeting this morning and suggest that your father send troops to the three counties of Wuhuan to fight against General Zhang Sui.

However, he swallowed the words back.

Gongsun Du's two sons usually look like gentle and elegant noblemen.

After what happened today, I realized that these two sons were also Gongsun Du, cruel and bloodthirsty, and both had some abilities.

If you advise them too much, not only will they not listen, but you may even bring yourself to be killed.

Not worth it.

Now Liaodong is fine, as long as it is fine.

If it's not good -

Guan Ning sighed secretly.

He is about to return to his hometown in Beihai County.

Today, Beihai County is under the jurisdiction of General Zhang Sui, and it is said that there are no refugees there.

However, after all, he had taken refuge in Liaodong for many years and had made many friends here, and he really didn't want these friends to suffer any harm.

Thinking of this, Guan Ning said, "Second Master has misunderstood."

"I also support taking advantage of the opportunity to attack the general."

"However, the general conquered the three counties of Wuhuan after all. He may not be smart enough, but he must have many experts around him to assist him."

"Since we want to take down the general, we must do it in one go."

"Otherwise, if time is delayed, the morale of the soldiers will also decline."

"Also, once we take Liucheng, we'll have to march all the way west."

"Then, what follows is a long war."

"Without sufficient soldiers, it will be difficult to sustain the attack on Yecheng."

After hearing what Guan Ning said, Gongsun Gong looked much better.

He understood the hidden meaning behind Guan Ning's words.

Guan Ning asked him to bring more elite troops and men to prevent any accidents.

Although Gongsun Gong himself did not think Zhang Sui was very strong.

Plus, we have the advantage of geographical location.

However, what Guan Ning said does make sense.

It is always better to bring more elite troops and men than to encounter any accidents.

If I really suffer a major defeat, I'm afraid my elder brother will not forgive me.

Don't be fooled by his nice words.

As his younger brother, how could I not understand him?

If my father hadn't been such a beast, how could I have supported my elder brother?

When thinking of his father, Gongsun Gong thought of his abdomen and his heart ached.

Taking a deep breath and forcibly suppressing his anger, Gongsun Gong said, "I understand."

"Thanks for the reminder, I will pay attention."

After saying this, Gongsun Gong rode his horse out of the city and went directly to the military camp.

Guan Ning looked at Gongsun Gong's leaving back and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

Although he is the next Gongsun Du, this second young master is still able to listen to some opinions.

Guan Ning looked far to the west, in the direction of the three counties of Wuhuan.

Now it depends on the strength of this great general.

If he can't even deal with the Second Young Master, then there is no point in returning to Beihai County. If he can deal with him, then he will be ready to leave Liaodong and see how Beihai County develops.

Perhaps, I can catch the general's tail and provide him with some assistance in conquering the world, thus leaving some blessings for future generations.

Then Gongsun Gong came to the military camp and transferred all 20,000 people in the camp.

Afterwards, he took the letter from Gongsun Kang that stated that he would succeed the throne a hundred years later, and went to Buyeo and the royal family's residence in Xiangping, respectively, and transferred 10,000 elite troops from each of them.

The Buyeo Kingdom and the Goguryeo royal family were never satisfied with Liaodong, thinking it was a poor and remote place.

They have always wanted to move westward and occupy more and better land.

It’s just because they have never been able to defeat the Donghu people of the Three Counties Wuhuan that they have been restricted here.

Now, they have seen the opportunity to leave the land of Liaodong, and even have the possibility of annexing Hebei and competing for world domination. They are all ecstatic.

Immediately, they made an agreement with Gongsun Gong that they would organize a large army and rush to Xiangping in five days.

During these five days, Gongsun Gong did three things:
First, as the commander-in-chief of the army, he personally wrote back to Zhang Sui, saying that he would rush to Changli in half a month and wait to see Zhang Sui's performance.

Second, discuss with the eldest brother, Gongsun Kang, the current governor of Liaodong County, to prepare food and fodder.

Third, he summoned his trusted generals and discussed with them several specific strategies to capture Zhang Sui after arriving in Changli.

Five days later, Buyeo and the Goguryeo royal family kept their promise and each came with 10,000 elite troops.

In Buyeo and Goguryeo, every citizen was a soldier on a normal day.

This time, both vassal states mobilized their strongest young men.

These young men were between twelve and twenty-six years old.

Each of them had a fierce look in their eyes and was eager to try.

Behind them, there was a long line of people.

They were all people from Buyeo and Goguryeo.

Most of them are women.

Children who are a few years old come second.

There are also some elderly people.

As the people followed the team, they urged the strongest young men to seize the opportunity, make achievements, and also reminded them to be careful.

Some young girls, perhaps newly married, followed the team closely, crying.

Some children were led by women and almost forced to follow the team.

From time to time, they were seen falling to the ground.

However, the woman who was holding them seemed to have lost her mind as she pulled them up and continued to follow, as if she was oblivious to the suffering of these children.

The cries of women and children were heard everywhere.

Gongsun Gong rode on his war horse, surrounded by his personal soldiers, watching this scene with an expressionless face.

Pointing at the team, Gongsun Gong said, "Let the people go back. From here on, no one is allowed to follow."

The personal soldiers then rode forward, waving their whips and driving the people away.

The people stopped one after another.

Gongsun Gong finally looked back at the Xiangping City behind him.

On the city wall, he actually saw his elder brother, now the governor of Liaodong County.

Gongsun Kang smiled and waved at him.

Gongsun Gong nodded and rode away first.

Three armies: 20,000 Han troops, 10,000 elite troops of Buyeo, and 10,000 elite troops of Goguryeo.

A total of 40,000.

The army marched towards Changli in a mighty manner.

Behind the army, countless women and children were crying out loud.

At the front of the army, 40,000 elite soldiers, each with a young face, were filled with excitement.

They won this battle because they had the advantage of geographical location.

As long as they defeated the army of General Zhang Sui, they would be able to leave Liaodong, this barren land where they could not get enough food even if they tried their best, and officially settle in Hebei, or even the Central Plains, and become part of the fight for the world.

Make great achievements.

Wealth and glory.

Wives and concubines in groups.

Shade and future generations.

What a wonderful prospect!
