Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

"Gongsun Huang, I will give you a surprise."

Guan Xing sneered and approached step by step.

His smile was full of cruelty and coldness, which made Gongsun Huang shudder.

Gongsun Huang turned pale with fear and shouted in horror:
"Hold him off!"

Regardless of their own lives, the guards on both sides rushed towards Guan Xing like moths to a flame.

They waved their weapons and roared, trying to buy time for Gongsun Huang to escape.

Guan Xing snorted disdainfully and swung the long sword in his hand, bringing up a cold light.

The long knife swept across like lightning, and blood splattered wherever it went.

"Kakaka!"

The sound of tearing was endless, the Liaodong soldiers were chopped into pieces, and blood splattered everywhere.

Their bodies flew backwards like kites with broken strings, with fear in their eyes.

Guan Xing was unstoppable, as if he was in an empty space, and rushed straight towards Gongsun Huang.

Gongsun Huang saw that the situation was not good, so he turned his horse around and tried to escape.

He gripped the reins tightly with both hands and his body leaned forward due to nervousness, almost sticking to the horse's back.

But it was too late.

Before Gongsun Huang could turn around, Guan Xing had already caught up with him like a ghost.

He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Gongsun Huang, blocking his way.

Guan Xing shouted loudly and slashed with his sword.

The long sword made a whistling sound and struck Gongsun Huang like a bolt of lightning.

Gongsun Huang tried his best to raise his sword to block.

Veins popped out on his hands from the force he exerted, and veins also popped out on his face.

With a loud bang, Gongsun Huang was blown away and hit the wall heavily.

The walls shook and dust fell.

"Kaka!"

His bones broke, making crisp sounds.

He groaned in pain, his body curled up into a ball, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Guan Xing slowly moved forward, dragging his bloodstained sword.

"General, please spare my life. I surrender to Prime Minister Xiao. I surrender——"

Gongsun Huang endured the severe pain and begged for mercy humbly.

He only hoped to get Guan Xing's mercy.

Guan Xing showed no mercy and swung his sword again.

There was no mercy or hesitation in his eyes, only a firm intent to kill.

Gongsun Huang screamed in despair, his voice echoing in the air.

Blood splattered and heads fell to the ground.

Gongsun Huang was chopped down by the sword, his eyes wide open, as if he still had a desire for life and a fear of death.

Guan Xing turned his bloody gaze to Yang Yi who was standing beside him.

At this moment, Yang Yi froze in place, his face ashen.

He watched Guan Xing kill Gongsun Huang. His legs went weak and he could barely stand. His body shook uncontrollably.

Guan Xing slashed down with his bloody knife, Yang Yi let out a scream, his arm was cut off, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

He fell to his knees, groaning in pain, his face distorted.

"Keep Gongsun Huang's dog head and send it to Gongsun Kang."

Guan Xing put Gongsun Huang's head in front of Yang Yi and said coldly:

"Tell him that our Prime Minister Xiao will come to Xiangping soon and kill him!"

This is Xiao Fang’s death ultimatum.

Yang Yi felt mixed emotions. He was glad that he had escaped death, but he also felt sad for the fate of Gongsun Kang and his son.

There was fear, helplessness, and a hint of relief in his eyes.

"roll!"

Guan Xing shouted loudly. His voice was like thunder, ringing in Yang Yi's ears, frightening Yang Yi.

Yang Yi seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He did not dare to stay any longer. He quickly picked up the head with his other hand and fled down the city in a hurry.

He staggered forward, leaving a long trail of blood behind him.

Guan Xing stood proudly with his sword in hand, looking down at the city shrouded in blood mist.

The battle flag of Yangle City is fluttering in the wind.

...

In the Liaodong land, Xiangping City is like a dazzling pearl but one that hides dangers.

The Liaodong Palace located here is currently immersed in an atmosphere of seemingly prosperity and peace.

In the palace with carved beams and painted rafters, the sound of stringed instruments lingered incessantly, and graceful dancers danced lightly with their colorful sleeves fluttering.

Gongsun Kang sat high up on the throne in the hall, his eyes revealing a bit of laziness and complacency, enjoying to the fullest the seemingly supreme respect before him.

"Your Majesty."

A shout broke the brief joy.

It was the counselor Liu Yi.

His expression was a little solemn. He stepped forward quickly, saluted, and said:

"Liu Bei's Han army is still in Youzhou. I dare to ask the king to send more troops to Yangle to strengthen the defense. There must be no slackness."

Gongsun Kang took a sip of the wine slowly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a nonchalant expression:

"The king has sent Huang'er to suppress Yangle. That's enough."

Liu Yi frowned and spoke again:
"Your Majesty, Yangle is the gateway to Liaodong. In my opinion, the number of soldiers stationed there is too small."

"Although the prince is intelligent, he lacks practical experience. I think it is better to replace him with a veteran general to guard the place."

Hearing Liu Yi's evaluation of his son, Gongsun Kang's face instantly darkened, and a hint of displeasure arose in his heart.

General Han Zhong also took a step forward, clasped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Yangle to guard it. I will definitely be able to keep Yangle safe and sound."

All the generals requested to fight.

There was a hint of displeasure that was hard to conceal in Gongsun Kang's eyes.

He naturally understood in his heart that his son Gongsun Huang was indeed lacking in experience in commanding troops.

However, he was well aware of the importance of Yang Le, as it was the key to the safety of Liaodong.

Therefore, he had to send someone he absolutely trusted to guard the place.

In his heart, the most trustworthy generals were undoubtedly those from Liaodong.

But what frustrates him is that most of the generals from Liaodong are mediocre and unable to take on important tasks.

Han Zhong and others were all exiled here from other states due to war and other reasons. How could he easily hand over such an important place as Yangle to them?
This is why he would rather let Gongsun Huang guard Yangle.

Faced with Liu Yi's earnest advice and the generals' enthusiastic requests for battle, Gongsun Kang became increasingly unhappy, but for a moment he did not know how to tactfully reject their proposals.

at this time.

The second son Gongsun Yuan stood up and said angrily:
"I know my brother's ability to lead an army very well. Who among you dares to underestimate him? Do you have the guts to compete with my brother?"

The generals looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

After all, Gongsun Huang is the crown prince and has a noble status.

Even if they are dissatisfied, they dare not speak out.

Seeing this, Gongsun Kang nodded slightly, and was quite impressed by the two men's cleverness.

Gongsun Yuan became even more excited when he saw his father nod. He held his head high and analyzed with great enthusiasm:
"If Liu Bei dares to invade Liaodong, the coastal spies will immediately sound the alarm."

"At that time, father only needs to lead our elite troops from Liaodong to Yangle to hold the fort, and we can easily repel the enemy."

"When the time comes, the Xianbei people will take advantage of the opportunity to enter Youzhou and cut off Liu Bei's food supply. Then even if the big-eared thief comes with a million troops, we won't have to worry about him!"

After hearing this, Gongsun Kang couldn't help but burst into laughter. He praised his son for his insight and laughed at his ministers for being so afraid of the enemy.

Having said this, although Liu Yi was still worried, he said nothing more and just stepped aside silently.

All the generals retreated and kept silent.

The seemingly peaceful and prosperous scene in the hall returned to normal.

Gongsun Kang smiled and picked up the wine glass, once again immersed in this brief joy, and continued to drink and have fun. (End of this chapter)
