System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

"Xu Rong, Cui Yan, you two must immediately head to the army and prepare for the expedition."

"Fengxiao, go to the army and remind Niu Fu to stop training for the next few days and work on the farming matters."

Dong Yu's orders were issued one after another.

Obviously, Dong's army, which had just been quiet for half a year, was about to start fighting again.

...

Yijing is located at the junction of Jizhou and Youzhou.

It belonged to Hejian State in Jizhou.

The reason why Gongsun Zan chose this place as his base was more to connect the territory he controlled.

In fact, Gongsun Zan's territory was relatively scattered.

Youbeiping, Hejian, Bohai and Qingzhou almost formed a narrow strip of land spanning thousands of miles.

This is also the reason why Gongsun Zan was so eager to take over Jizhou.

Without Jizhou, his territory cannot be fully connected and his strength cannot be maximized.

Unlike Sili, Henei and Jizhou occupied by Dong Yu, which were completely connected.

There are multiple options for marching, whether by water or land, so both sides can quickly become dependent on each other.

"Where is Liu Yu's army?"

Gongsun Zan stood in front of the map and asked Guan Jing behind him.

"Fangcheng, Zhuo County."

"Liu Yu's army marched slowly, obviously carrying a lot of food and supplies."

Guan Jing responded immediately.

"After all, it's an army of over 100,000. Twenty miles a day is already pretty good."

"According to the time, we will arrive in Yijing in two days."

"Have you cleared everything around Yijing?"

"I don't want the enemy to be able to use nearby materials to create a large number of siege engines."

Gongsun Zan looked at the map in front of him with a serious expression.

Although he did not think highly of Liu Yu's ability to command troops, it was still an army of more than 100,000 men.

Compared with Gongsun Zan's 20,000 to 30,000 men, he had the upper hand in momentum.

"Don't worry, my lord. There isn't a single forest within a radius of thirty miles."

Guan Jing bowed and promised.

"Hmm... give orders to the people to go out and farm, and not just sit around in the city."

Gongsun Zan suddenly thought of something and spoke immediately.

"what?"

“Farming now?”

Guan Jing couldn't keep up with Gongsun Zan's thoughts and asked in surprise.

"Liu Yu is kind and benevolent. He will definitely not allow his army to offend the people."

"With an army of over a hundred thousand, it would be difficult to reverse the situation without some sinister tactics."

Gongsun Zan lowered his voice and explained to Guan Jing.

Gollum~

After realizing what Gongsun Zan meant, Guan Jing couldn't help swallowing.

Is that too cruel?

What if Liu Yu didn’t care about the lives of the people?

There are tens of thousands of Hu dogs among the army of more than 100,000.

Guan Jing suddenly felt that he could not understand this White Horse General.

"how?"

"You think I'm too cruel?"

Gongsun Zan raised the corner of his mouth in a slight sneer.

"Don't dare!"

Guan Jing bowed and clasped his hands.

"Hehe, Guan Jing, what's wrong with you?"

"Do you really think you're a good person?"

"You have to know that it was Liu Yu who wanted to attack me first."

"I just let the people farm normally. If they don't farm, will you feed them or will Liu Yu feed them?"

"As for whether Liu Yu can control his troops, that's his problem. What does it have to do with me?"

"As long as he can control his subordinates, then there will be no problem, right?"

"Go ahead and do it."

Gongsun Zan chuckled and began to defend himself.

"promise!"

Guan Jing sighed in his heart and could only bow in agreement.

After leaving the hinterland, Guan Jing raised his head and looked at the blue sky, and for a moment he was dazed.

If you ask yourself, he is not a good person either.

But there should be a bottom line for what is good or bad.

However, due to the poor development in recent years, Gongsun Zan exposed this drawback.

In the past, he would occasionally lead his troops out of the border to rob some Hu tribes to make up for the shortfall in the army.

But now it is entirely based on robbing the Han people.

"Oh, forget it. Now that things have come to this, why think so much?"

After a long time, Guan Jing came back to his senses and smiled at himself.

Guan Jing was originally a cruel official. Although his methods were cruel, they were not so cruel as to blur racial distinctions.
