Chapter 1104 Pingzhou Sends Troops
"Hahaha!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Sitting on the throne of the city lord in Ji County's city lord's mansion, Gongsun Zan laughed loudly when he heard the loud fighting sound outside.
The scars left by the fierce battle on his body did not affect his excitement at all, and the death of Gongsun Yue was also left behind by him - Jicheng was finally captured, and there was no obstacle to unifying Youzhou!
Looking at the vast hall of the City Lord's Mansion, a rare smile appeared on Li Su's face. Only Guan Jing felt a little regretful: "It's a pity that the old thief Liu Yu couldn't be captured."
When Liu Yan broke the city, under the cover of his personal guards, he took advantage of the chaos and left through the secret road. After Gongsun Zan entered the city, he only saw a dead man wearing Liu Yan's clothes and whose figure was very similar to him.
"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay, without Jicheng to rely on, it's easy to kill Liu Yan'er, and Youzhou is already in our pocket."
Gongsun Zan waved his hand quite boldly, and said indifferently.
"Pass down the general's order, and send an ultimatum to Zhuojun and Daijun to surrender within a time limit. Otherwise, I will personally lead the army to conquer, and I will tell them not to stay!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Zhuo County and Dai County originally belonged to Liu Yu's sphere of influence. According to Gongsun Zan's estimation, Ji County was settled, and the rest were minor problems. They only needed an order, and they would surrender.
"Hug! Please tell my lord, the three generals are asking to see you."
"Oh? Let him in!"
Gongsun Zan was overjoyed when he heard the words, stood up from his chair involuntarily, looked at the door and said.
The third general was Gongsun Zan's other younger brother, Gongsun Fan, who was called the third general because he was ranked third. Unlike Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan is incapable, greedy for money and lustful, and feels a bit like a dude.
As soon as the city was broken, Gongsun Zan arranged for Gongsun Fan to seize the treasury of Ji County. Because this matter is too important and requires absolute reliability, Gongsun Zan can only arrange for this brother who is not very capable to do it (originally it was Gongsun Yue, but unfortunately he died).
Gongsun Fan walked in quickly, but his face was not very happy, but rather depressed.
Seeing this, Gongsun Zan couldn't help being startled, and blurted out: "Fan brother,
how is the situation? How much property was seized? "
Gongsun Fan shook his head and sighed: "Don't mention it, the treasury of Jicheng can starve to death mice, except for some broken copper and rotten iron, there are only millions of stones of grain left!"
Gongsun Fan didn't know the details of Gongsun Zan's finances. In his mind, Gongsun Zan's financial situation may be relatively difficult, but it should not be at the end of his rope.
He thought it would be a lucrative job to seize the treasury of Ji County, but in the end he returned empty-handed, which made Gongsun Fan very angry. Of course, he didn't know that his brother felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave after hearing his words.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?!! How can such a huge royal city have no money???"
Gongsun Zan's eyes turned red instantly, and he couldn't help roaring.
"Brother... brother, you are..."
Gongsun Fan was taken aback, and looked at Gongsun Zan helplessly, not knowing what was wrong with him. What is it if there is no money in the treasury of Ji County? Wangcheng itself is an unparalleled wealth!
He doesn't know how short of money Gongsun Zan is now!
"Third General, please take someone to look for it carefully, especially if there is any secret vault. Liu Yu has been in charge of Ji County for many years, so it is unlikely that he has no savings at all."
Guan Jing stepped forward at the right time, intending to take Gongsun Fan Zhi away.
"Oh? Okay, okay, I'll go and have a look!"
Feeling that something was wrong, Gongsun Fan turned around and left quickly, fearing that if he ran too slowly, he would be eaten by Gongsun Zan.
After Gongsun Fan left, Gongsun Zan held on to his last hope and interrogated several captured senior Liu Yujun generals.
Hearing that Liu Yujun hadn't paid his military salary for three consecutive months, Gongsun Zan's last hope was shattered!
"Liu Yu is an old bastard who occupies the royal city of Ji County, how could he have no money at all???"
In desperation, Gongsun Zan couldn't help but curse.
"My lord, don't worry, there is no money in the treasury, but there are other places!"
Guan Jing took a step forward and whispered in Gongsun Zan's ear.
"What?" Gongsun Zan was taken aback for a moment, but then he reacted and asked with some doubts, "Where is the money?"
"In Jicheng, there are Zhen's, Mi's, Chen's, Wei's, Yang's, Lu's, Jia's and other companies. They have huge assets and have their help. Why worry about the lack of military funds?"
Gongsun Zan was stunned when he heard the words, his expression was uncertain.
In order to boost morale, he promised to plunder for three days after breaking the city. But this big looting is also particular. For example, the looting area is limited to the outer city, and under normal circumstances, they will not take the initiative to loot those powerful families and super companies. The real unlucky ones are the ordinary people.
But according to what Guan Jing said, there are many people who will be offended.
Not to mention, the Zhen family has already turned to Shang Ji; among them, the Mi family represents the Mi family, which is now under Liu Bei's command; the Wei family refers to Wei Hong, who wears a pair of pants with Cao Cao; the Lu family is Lu Su, Now he works under Sun Ce; the Yang family represents Yuan Shu, and the Jia family is Diao Chan's white glove.
Although there are frequent wars between the princes, the companies they represent are generally not involved. Gongsun Zan and Shang Ji were hostile to each other, but this did not affect the Zhen's firm's continued business in Gongsun Zan's area.
Speaking of which, Gongsun Zan was able to launch the last battle of Ji County, thanks to Shang Ji who sold him a batch of cheap grain, otherwise he would not even be able to get together the army grain!
Of course, the White Wolf firm under Gongsun Zan also operated unimpeded under Shang Ji's rule.
If it is true that large-scale robbing of these companies can solve the urgent need, it will break the unspoken rules among the princes, and life will be difficult in the future.
"Report!"
Just when Gongsun Zan was hesitating, the captain suddenly sent an urgent report.
"My lord, in Chang'an, the demon woman controlled the court and once again issued an edict to deprive you of all official positions, declare you a rebel, and call on the princes to crusade!"
"This witch, kill her sooner or later!"
A ruthless look flashed in Gongsun Zan's eyes when he heard the words, and he said in a stern voice.
Having said that, Gongsun Zan didn't pay much attention to the news. It was the third time he had been dismissed from all official positions by Diao Chan, and it was also the third time he had been declared rebellious, but except for Liu Yan who responded once, the other princes ignored him.
The lieutenant who summoned him hadn't stepped down yet, another lieutenant rushed over.
"Urgent military situation!"
"My lord, Marquis of Yan, general of chariots and riders, Pingzhou herdsman Ji announced in Xiangping that in response to the imperial court's call, he will send an army to attack the lord on a certain day!"
"what??"
Gongsun Zan stood up abruptly, walked to the captain in two or three steps, grabbed the document from the captain's hand, and hurriedly swept it over.
"Report, emergency military situation!"
Before Gongsun Zan finished watching, another announcement came.
"My lord, a large-scale rebellion broke out in Changshan County, Jizhou, and Beihai County, Qingzhou. There is a rebellious army in Changshan County called Heishan Army, the leader is Zhang Yan, an old general of the Yellow Turban Army, and there is a rebellious army in Beihai County. The old general was in charge of Hai, and the two armies conquered Yuan County (Changshan County) and Ju County (Beihai County) respectively."
Gongsun Zan was stunned when he heard the words, and then sat down on the chair, as if he had lost his soul.
