Chapter 281
In the county town, military camp.
Nearly 20,000 soldiers under Gao Lan were resting in the military camp and relaxed one by one, with a look of joy on his tired faces. From Linzi County to Beihai Kingdom, all the soldiers were hungry, sleeping in the open, and were in danger of being killed at any time. The situation was very difficult.
The soldiers were relieved when they arrived in Qiuju County.
In the camp, buckets of fresh meat soup with aroma, pots of cooked fragrant rice, and pots of meat and vegetables were continuously carried into the military camp. The soldiers were sleeping in the open for several days and were already hungry. They saw the meat soup, rice, and the meat and vegetables they carried, and they all ate voraciously, completely forgetting their image.
In the central army's tent, the Prime Minister of Beihai was accompanying Gao Lan.
Gao Lan sat above and sighed: "Beihai, thanks to you this time. If it weren't for you, I would definitely die at the hands of Wang Yan. I will remember your kindness in my heart. After the army rests, I will mobilize the army to counterattack Wang Yan. After taking Qingzhou, I will personally ask for merit for you in front of my lord."
When Bei Haixiang heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He had a smile on his face, but from the corner of his eyes he glanced at the solemn general standing behind him.
Then, the Prime Minister of Beihai picked up the wine bottle and smiled and said, "General Gao praised it, this is what the officials should do."
When Gaolan arrived in Ju County, Beihai Xiang went out of the city to greet him and welcomed Gaolan into the city. Then, Beihai Xiang prepared enough food for the soldiers to eat, which moved Gaolan.
Gao Lan tore off a piece of chicken leg meat, swallowed it in a few seconds, and felt that his stomach was no longer hungry, and his stomach finally calmed down. He picked up the wine bottle and said loudly: "Beihai Xiang, come, drink this cup full."
"Full drink!"
Bei Haixiang smiled slightly, picked up the wine bottle and drank.
Gao Lan turned his eyes to the generals under his command and said aloud: "Everyone, we have finally escaped and can breathe a sigh of relief. Now you have only one task, which is to eat and drink enough, then nourish your spirits, and follow me to counterattack."
At this moment, Gao Lan no longer looked down and out of the past. Instead, he was full of fighting spirit and was already planning to counterattack Wang Yan.
Bei Haixiang still had a smile on his face, and he was careful to drink with Gao Lan.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the atmosphere in the camp was even more warm.
"Hey, my head is a little dizzy. I just drank a little wine. How could it be?"
Gao Lan frowned and murmured in her mouth. Suddenly, Gao Lan felt dizzy in front of her eyes, and the wine bottle in her hand fell to the ground with a clang. Then she lay on the desk and fell into a coma.
There was an uproar in the camp, and Wu Xin and others were all alert, and even more fiercely looked at Beihaixiang.
But before there was enough time to speak, Wu Xin and others fell into a drowsy state.
Seeing this scene, Beihaixiang fell down in the air. He stood up and looked at the burly general standing behind him, with a flattering look on his face and said flatteringly: "General Huang, Gao Lan and all the generals under his command have fallen into a coma. The lower official has completed the task. Can you ask General Huang to speak a few words in front of the governor?"
Huang Zhong nodded slightly and said lukewarmly: "I will tell the governor truthfully about your affairs."
In the past, Gao Lan entered Qingzhou, and the Beihai Prime Minister immediately changed his flag and openly announced his surrender to Yuan Shao. After Huang Zhong received the news of the betrayal of Pingyuan County, Jinan Kingdom, Le'an Kingdom and Beihai Kingdom, he immediately mobilized his army to go to Linzi to help Wang Yan.
At this moment, the Hero Tower passed on Wang Yan's order to Huang Zhong and ordered Huang Zhong to secretly send troops to control the Beihai Kingdom and wait for Gao Lan to arrive.
After receiving the order, Huang Zhong felt strange.
After Gao Lan entered Qingzhou, he headed straight for Linzi County. How could he go to Beihai Country?
At that time, Huang Zhong was full of doubts, but meticulously executed the orders, and personally led his troops into Ju County, controlled the Beihai Prime Minister, and then quickly transferred the troops of Donglai County to Beihai Kingdom and completely controlled the Beihai Kingdom.
Beihai Xiang was worried about being liquidated by Wang Yan, so he pleased Huang Zhong everywhere, hoping that Huang Zhong would say good things for him.
After Huang Zhong took over the Beihai Kingdom, he was worried about the situation in Linzi County.
At this time, news of Gao Lan's defeat in Linzi County was heard, and Huang Zhong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But Huang Zhong was still a little suspicious. Although Gao Lan was defeated, he did not have to retreat to Beihai Kingdom. Gao Lan could choose the Jinan Kingdom closest to Jizhou, or go to Le'an Kingdom to the north. More importantly, going to Beihai Kingdom is easily attacked by Qi Kingdom and Donglai County, which is the most unfavorable situation for Gao Lan.
But the time was not long, and the situation once again exceeded Huang Zhong's expectations.
Gao Lan first went to Jinan Kingdom, but was ambushed early in Qingzhou on the official road leading to Jinan Kingdom. He suffered heavy losses. Then, Gao Lan turned to Le'an Kingdom and was ambushed again.
Finally, Gao Lan had to retreat to Beihai Country.
A series of changes and battles dazzled Huang Zhong and admired Wang Yan even more.
All of this is obviously a plan that has been formulated long ago.
In fact, since the negotiations between Wang Yan and Gao Lan in Phoenix Mountain, the plan formulated by Jia Xu and Guo Jia began to be implemented step by step, and eventually forced Gao Lan to Beihai Kingdom, and Huang Zhong took Gao Lan.
From beginning to end, there was no deviation in the plan.
"Report!"
The curtains of the camp tent were rolled up, and a soldier quickly walked in and bowed to report: "Report to General Qi, all the soldiers under Gao Lan's command have fallen asleep."
Huang Zhong nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Everything is in custody!"
"promise!"
The soldier turned around and retreated after receiving the order.
Huang Zhong looked at Beihaixiang and ordered: "Bind Gao Lan and others, and then follow me to open the city gate and go to the military camp to welcome the lord's process."
"Thank you, General!"
Bei Haixiang was happy and quickly agreed. As long as he had the opportunity to see Wang Yan, he could take the opportunity to apologize and strive for Wang Yan's leniency.
After Beihai Xiang quickly dealt with it, he followed Huang Zhong to the city gate.
When he arrived at the city gate, Huang Zhong ordered: "Open the city gate!" The soldiers garrisoned opened the city gate, and Huang Zhong led a group of officials from Beihai Kingdom to the military camp outside the city.
When Wang Yan received the news that the city gate was opened, he personally brought people to greet him at the entrance of the tent.
Huang Zhong came to Wang Yan, clasped his fists and said, "My general Huang Zhong, pay homage to the lord.My general fulfilled his mission and successfully captured Gao Lan and other rebels alive."
Wang Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work in Hansheng!"
Huang Zhong said: "Relying on the lord's plan, the generals can complete the task without any danger."
Bei Haixiang immediately knelt down and said verbally: "Mr. Governor, the villain was bewitched and lost for a moment. He committed a serious crime. Please punish him."
Wang Yan glanced at Beihaixiang and remained silent.
In an instant, Beihaixiang became uneasy and at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Seeing this, Huang Zhong spoke at the right time: "Lord, this time he can win Gaolan, Beihai Prime Minister will also have great contributions. Without his full assistance, this time it would not be so smooth."
Wang Yan snorted and said in a deep voice: "Huang Zhong pleads for you, so you can get up. After Gao Lan has dealt with this war merit and demerit, we will deal with it together. If you have two other intentions, you will definitely be killed."
"Yes, yes, thank you for not killing me."
Beihaixiang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
