On the grass covered with scarlet liquid, the unowned war horses were gathered and pulled away. The bodies of the Huns were ignored, but one night, they would naturally be taken away by wild beasts on the grassland.

After a moment of trance, Gongsun Zhi withdrew his gaze, turned off the horseback, and the horse thieves around him surrounded him and waited for him to speak. After a while, he swept over everyone and raised his fingers, "...Zhang Liao was transferred away, and he was replaced by a playboy. Such a person would die if he came here. Someone wanted to kill our brothers."

"What the leader means is that some people in the city want to attack us?" Gao Sheng spitted and wiped the knife. "It would be better if we disguised ourselves and slaughtered the prefect and his family together."

"What if the wrong person is killed?" said someone among the horse thieves.

Gongsun Zhi turned over and looked too far away: "I can't make a mistake. I have been thinking before, how could that playboy take over Zhang Liao's deal with us? I think we have touched the interests of some people. I can only transfer an unknown county official to the governor of Bingzhou. Apart from the prefect of Yanmen County, I really can't remember who else would be able to sit there."

"Since someone eats us, don't blame me Gongsun Zhi for biting back." He turned his horse's head.

A trace of black clouds floated over the blue sky.

...

The bright sky gradually became cloudy, and it was common for rainy spring. There were fewer pedestrians on the streets of Yinguan. Soon, dark clouds came over the city, and even children no longer rushed to the streets. There was less playfulness or loud shouting, giving people a feeling of depression.

Guo’s Mansion.

The old tree with tender branches shook its leaves in the wind, brushing through the long and high eaves, and the figures under the eaves talked while walking and talking to some places, laughter came.

"A bunch of horse thieves, that's all... It's really hard to ask Taishou Guo to use a little trick."

Guo Zhi just smiled when he heard the other party's compliment and did not take it seriously. He had seen many such people in his half life. Before he became an official, he remembered that the night before he was first praised as a filial and honest person, such a person's face would look different and the hearts of the people hiding the chests of these scholars.

In fact, he took action for the group of horse thieves because of the safety of the local area. As for the gentry and tyrants who came to the door, they were just following the favors. After all, he also came from a noble family.

"It's not enough to worry. It's just the responsibility of my parents to protect their families and protect their country. Just like Liu Youzhou did, treating the northern barbarians as much as possible, and also giving them more peace to the border."

"Hahaha...Prince Guo is modest, let's do this, I will hold a family banquet to repay the Lord another day." Shortly after the man bowed and said this, thunder broke out in the sky, and little raindrops fell on the eaves. Soon he weaved the rain curtain. He said goodbye and left under the paper umbrella held by the servant.

Guo Zhi returned to the room and saw his two-year-old son running over with his ears covering his eyes. "Dad, Huai'er is scared." Outside, a thunderclap shocked the sky above the roof, scaring the child to tighten his neck.

In the room, the maid lit the candle, and Guo Qi pulled his son a little distance, looking at his scared eyes, "God is thundering and hitting the bad guy, is Huai'er a bad guy?"

The young Guo Huai shook his head, "I am a child and have never done anything bad."

"Then God hasn't hit you, so don't be afraid to know?" Guo Feng held the child's little hand and spoke slowly, "... Also, Huai'er should not be an official like his father in the future..."

************************************

While the father and son were talking, a team of business travelers in Yinguan City happened to be inspected and entered the city. On this rainy day, there were few pedestrians on the street and not many business travelers were coming and going. The team of business travelers walked slowly and observed the surroundings. Soon after, they passed by a team of street patrol soldiers and stopped at a wine house.

These people have blades and short bows. Most of the vendors walking in the north are like this. The soldiers guarding the gate do not find it surprising, otherwise they would not have just entered the city like this.

The caravan was about 30 people, and most of them were fur coats, and some were long clothes. They looked very worn. Shortly after they sat down, a passerby on the street also walked in and sat down without a trace on the side of a man wearing a bun.

“Lose guard against it.”

"Sure?"

"Ensure that there are no accidents. There are not many guards at the other party's house. Take advantage of the heavy rain to kill in."

"This is best. Brothers outside can hide the horses and do the best. We will leave immediately before the day is dark."

"…Chief, don't you wait for it to get dark?"

The figure with loose hair looked at the outline of the Guo Mansion, drank the wine in the glass in one sip and smacked heavily on the table, "I don't have that time, just kill someone and leave."

...

The rain became heavier and louder.

In the rain curtain that covered his sight, the servant at the back door of Guo’s mansion yawned. Such a rainy day made people tired, and the splashed rain on the ground wet his trouser legs again, which was a little cold. Soon after he put down his hand, crackling footsteps sounded in the rain curtain. The servant’s eyes looked over, and the figures came over, and then the sound of the knife pulling out the sheath.

His eyes suddenly opened wide, and when he opened his mouth and was about to scream, a feather arrow was nailed directly from his mouth, and it fell backwards and was nailed to the door. More figures came closer to the sound of rain. Someone climbed over the wall and opened the back door. He rushed in and killed him when he met someone.

Some people were killed by a knife before they could react, and they didn't even have time to make a sound.

A maid carrying dishes happened to come out of the kitchen. She had just turned around the corner of the corridor and collided with a group of people. She subconsciously said, "Who are you..." The knife turned to her neck and smeared a bloodline.

"It seems that the owner is having a meal..." Gao Sheng picked up a piece of meat from the dish that fell on the ground and put it in his mouth, and smiled cruelly.

The Guo Mansion was not big. They had been killing halfway through the road. Only then did the guards let out a shrill scream, attracting the attention of the soldiers in the mansion, and then rushed over from all directions.

However, here, I already knew where the person I was going to kill was. Gongsun Zhi and his group of more than 30 people pushed directly over there. The door of the hall opened. A soldier saw the body and eyes rushing in the rain. He rushed under the eaves in a blink of an eye. The rain splashed, and he lifted his foot and drove the soldier backwards back into the house.

Inside the room, Guo Zhi subconsciously handed Guo Huai around him who didn't understand what was going on to his nervous wife, and shouted quietly: "Go away--" The soldiers next to him immediately pulled the two of them and ran towards the other door. When he turned around, a tall figure walked in with rain dripping.

"Who are you?" Guo Zhen shouted in a low voice as his wild body looked at his violent body.

The man shrewd, did not answer, but sat down in front of him, inserted his knife into a short table, took a few slices of mutton from the food plate, and chewed it in his mouth.

"Is this mutton delicious? It's still blood from our brothers..."

Guo Zhi reacted at this time, looked at the man chewing mutton in front of him, and stammered his lips: "You are Gongsun Zhi..."

"Yes. It's me." Gongsun Zhi licked the grease on his fingers, and the horse thieves who came in around him showed ferocious smiles.

"It seems that you have understood... You can kill me... But this prefect tells you clearly, how can you tolerate you, a horse thief, on the border of the Han Dynasty...uh..."

Guo Zhi spoke in a deep voice, but before he finished speaking, Gongsun Zhi stood up and pulled out the blade on the short table and slashed it. With a puff, the plasma shot on his face. The man fell down, and his tall body walked over and squatted down, and another knife was slashed on the twitching body. He stopped moving before he stopped.

"Killing you is to tell the next prefect that in the future, my Gongsun Zhi has the final say on this grassland. If you don't accept it, you will eat you."

In an instant, his hair scattered water droplets, turned around and walked into the rain curtain, "Immediately withdrawing from the city as planned and joining the brothers outside."

The flashing of lightning accompanied by the thunder was a loud sound of killing.

Not long after.

It was raining heavily, and outside the south gate, a cavalry of hundreds of people entered the city.
