It was almost dusk, Gongsun Zan and his party arrived outside Yimu, and went forward to explore the horse and sprinted to reward him.

"General, the front is already near Yimu, and the supplies and food transported by General Gongsun Yue can be seen from afar."

After hearing the news, Gongsun Zan, who had just woken up, was a little more at ease.

"As long as my fellow servants are safe, the supplies and food are there, even if you lose thousands of infantrymen, it is no big deal. If you are refugees everywhere, you can recruit them again!"

Gongsun Zan had just thought about the next strategy to deal with Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebels, and a noisy and anxious question suddenly came from outside the car.

"Brother Gongsun, are you injured? Is the injury serious? Let's go and search for a good doctor for your brother!"

Even though the person who came was not well-known, Gongsun Zan had already heard the identity of a person from his trembling voice.

"Xuande, don't worry, Zan has not damaged his muscles and bones, and his injuries are not serious."

Regardless of whether Liu Bei's statement was sincere or not, Gongsun Zan felt relieved and moved.

"You know cold and heat, and you still have to know Liu Xuande!"

At present, Gongsun Zan was just a moment of uneasy and helplessness. Being able to meet Liu Bei, a former classmate, could be considered as meeting an old friend in a foreign land and seeing charcoal in the snow.

Of course, what Gongsun Zan cares more about is the two thug brothers around Liu Bei with extremely high military power.

"Terror to Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, I will have more help!"

Liu Bei lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that it was quite spacious inside, so he got on the carriage straight.

As soon as he entered the car, Liu Bei stared at Gongsun Zan's wound that had been bleeding. He seemed at a loss for a moment, his tears swayed again, and his sobs were hard to say.

"Brother, you are hurt by the country. I am very impressed by it. But I am so sorry to the emperor if I lose my city and land!"

After looking at it for a while, Liu Beifang issued a national praise for Gongsun Zan, and also had a light self-satisfaction.

"Cough..."

Liu Bei's words made Gongsun Zan feel very uncomfortable when he heard the guilty Gongsun Zan. Fortunately, he was injured. He quickly coughed lightly, covering up his embarrassing expression.

"Hmm?"

Seeing that Gongsun Zan did not respond to his statement, Liu Bei moved his eyes to Gongsun Zan's face again with a calm expression. He found that Gongsun Zan's facial expression was complicated and his eyebrows were shaking. Liu Bei was relieved.

"It must be the pain in the wound, which makes it hard to describe for a moment!"

Liu Bei quickly changed into a sad expression and asked Gongsun Zan with concern.

"Brother, you are not comforting me, are your injuries really okay?"

Gongsun Zan's mouth showed a strong smile, his arm shook slightly, signaling Liu Bei not to be nervous, and quickly change his conversation.

"Xuande, this place is still far away from Yimucheng, how could you be here? Are you waiting for Zan?"

Liu Bei nodded, not denying it.

Originally, when Liu Bei and the three brothers saw Gongsun Yue leaving, they also planned to return to the city. As soon as they stepped on the war horse, they didn't take two steps, they heard a sound of horse hooves coming from behind. Looking back, it was Gongsun Zan's cavalry brigade, and Liu Bei brought two brothers to meet him.

"It's still my brothers who are caring!"

Gongsun Zan felt even more comfortable. He liked Liu Bei's knowledge of integrity and etiquette, respecting the elders and loving the young.

"Brother, General Meng Yi has not traveled with you?"

Liu Bei had long discovered that there was no sign of the Central Army General Meng Yi in the cavalry team that came with him, and there were no large squadrons of infantry walking with him. He thought that Meng Yi and the infantry were slowing down for the rear team.

"Uh!"

At this time, the name Gongsun Zan was most reluctant to mention was Meng Yi.

But when Liu Bei asked, Gongsun Zan's eyes deviated from Liu Bei, his eyes were a little dodged and he was erratic.

"Brother, who did your injury?"

Liu Bei cared about Meng Yi's whereabouts and also cared about Gongsun Zan's injuries.

Liu Bei is still clear about Gongsun Zan's force. Although he is not as good as his two brothers, he is not much different.

If the other party had not been strong, it would be difficult to hurt Gongsun Zan so severely.

"Zan and General Meng Yi led their troops into Qingzhou Pingyuan County. As soon as they crossed the river, they encountered a surprise attack by tens of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits. General Meng Yi was unfortunately killed in battle, and all three thousand infantrymen were wiped out."

Gongsun Zan thought of Yu Zi's knife by Jishui, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

"Even if you are brother, you almost died at the besiege of the Yellow Turban bandits!"

Although Gongsun Zan covered up very well, his somewhat erratic eyes were captured by Liu Bei at the first time, and Liu Bei secretly felt suspicious.

"I just saw the cavalry, wearing armor, and the traces of war were not severe. Gongsun Bogui's words may not be true!"

Liu Bei glanced at the wound on Gongsun Zan without a trace. If Gongsun Zan had not had a pale face, cold sweat, and a symptom of excessive blood loss, Liu Bei would have suspected that Gongsun Zan was pretending to be too similar.

"It's good that Meng Yi is dead. No one is in charge of Gongsun Bogui. I'm more comfortable around him and have more opportunities!"

When Liu Bei thought of the convenience, he quickly felt relieved and even glad that Meng Yi's death.

"Brother, what should we do next?"

Since Gongsun Zan was unwilling to mention Meng Yi's affairs more, Liu Bei also tactfully shifted the topic to the issues he cared about.

"Now we only have two thousand soldiers left. If we want to wipe out Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju rebels, we are obviously unable to do anything, so we can only ask the court for reinforcements!"

Liu Bei took the initiative to include himself in Gongsun Zan's camp. Gongsun Zan was very satisfied. He pondered for a while and told Liu Bei about his thoughts.

"The five thousand brothers have been going all the way, but they have not achieved any achievements yet, and they have lost their troops and generals. If they ask for reinforcements from the court at this time, what would the court think?"

Liu Bei was silent for a while and expressed his concerns.

"Will the imperial court change its generals temporarily?"

Gongsun Zan hesitated for a long time, because of this kind of worry.

He finally killed Meng Yi, but he almost killed his life for this. Didn’t he just want to lead the troops independently? If he sent someone else, Gongsun Zan would have done it in vain before and suffered injuries.

"Oh, I'm wrong!"

"It's all because of Meng Yi. If he hadn't pleased Yuan, insisted on entering Qingzhou, and helped the new Jinan Prime Minister Yuan Shu to wipe out the Yellow Turban bandits, the army would not have suffered such great losses!"

Gongsun Zan was trashing the blame, and secretly regretted it.

"If I had known that Tao Ying's Taishan Army was so fierce and fearless and had such a strong fighting will, Zan would never have taken action against Meng Yi in Qingzhou!"

Gongsun Zan felt that this attack on Meng Yi was a trick, and it was a bit incredible to be too hasty.

"In Jizhou, Youzhou has many opportunities to kill Meng Yi, why did you choose to take action in Qingzhou?"

Gongsun Zan shook his head, feeling that he had taken the wrong step, making the future more difficult and unpredictable.

"If Zhang Chun is not in the way, Zhang Ju's rebels will win, it may be difficult to explain to Luoyang!"

For a moment, Gongsun Zan's thoughts became extremely trance.

"What?"

"Yuan Gaolu also led his troops into Qingzhou to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban bandits?"

Liu Bei's heart was shocked, and his tone was a little out of control.

"When will this happen?"

Gongsun Zan, who was still complaining about himself, did not pay attention to Liu Bei's emotional changes and replied slowly.

"After Zan led the army to set off, Yuan Gaolu was represented by the emperor as the prime minister of Jinan on the second day, and led 5,000 troops to Qingzhou."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei glanced at Gongsun Zan, lowered his head and said nothing.

"Compared with Gongsun Bogui, following Yuan Gaolu should have a better chance, right?!"

If I had known that the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third generation of Dukes would enter Qingzhou to clear out the Yellow Turbans, Liu Bei would definitely not have left Pingyuan County. Even if he hid in the valley, he would have to wait for Yuan Shu to arrive.

"I've made a mistake!"

Liu Bei, who felt something, blurted out his heart.

When I woke up, my words were already spoken, and I was shocked and sweated. My mind was changing rapidly, and I was busy trying to make up for it.

"Yes, Zan has made a mistake, what good plans do you have?"

Fortunately, the two were not on the same channel, and Liu Bei's remedy words had not yet spoken, and Gongsun Zan had already spoken.

"Huh!"

Gongsun Zan did not realize Liu Bei's distractedness, which made Liu Bei wipe his cold sweat and said he was lucky.

"For the sake of the present, my brother can only recover from his injuries and drive the enemy north to Youzhou. When the new governor of the state Liu Bo'an arrives in Youzhou, he will recruit soldiers in Youzhou and work hard to eliminate Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju rebels."

It is obviously impossible to return to Qingzhou at this time, so Liu Bei's idea has become simpler.

"If Gongsun Bogui is injured, he will definitely not be able to bring his troops. He should be the leader of his troops!"

Liu Bei's abacus was very meticulous. As long as the military power fell into his hands, he would do whatever he wanted. When he arrived in Youzhou and saw Liu Yu, the credit he had accumulated would be almost done.

"I can't be a county magistrate in Qingzhou, but the same is true for doing it in my hometown in Youzhou!"

Thinking of this, a look of pride flashed across Liu Bei's face, and he happened to be seen by Gongsun Zan.
