Chapter 440

But Han Zhan soon found that he was worried about nothing. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood at the forefront of the team without any arm, and waited for his arrival respectfully! After confirming the character of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Han Zhan suddenly felt relaxed.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and Han Zhan came to him, and quickly bowed their hands and bowed: "I will meet the Marquis of Anyang!"

"Chen Yun, Yide, please give up the gift!" Han Zhan quickly turned over and dismounted, held the two of them, and then said with a smile on his face: "The two are so brave. They actually took only three incense sticks to capture Ye County."

Hearing Han Zhan's praise, Zhang Fei showed a proud expression on his face, but Guan Yu still said modestly: "If you go back to Anyang Hou, it is not the bravery of a certain brother. The city is really low and the defenders in the city are limited. It is really difficult to be a thunder strike from our army, otherwise it would not be able to capture the city so quickly."

Under the guidance of Guan and Zhang, Han Zhan brought Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and others into Ye County and came to the county yamen. The Ye County Magistrate was taking his staff and waiting in the yamen. When he saw Han Zhan and others coming in, he quickly knelt down on the ground, just raised the tray in his hand over the leader, and said tremblingly: "The Ye County Magistrate, please see the Marquis of Anyang. This is the seal and household registration list of the county. Please accept it!"

"Rob," Han Zhan stared at the people kneeling in front of him, and ordered without looking back: "Collection of seals and household registration list!"

Unexpectedly, after Han Zhan finished speaking, he did not hear Rob's response. He was about to have an attack, but Chen Dao had already come to his ear and whispered: "Didn't the lord send Rob back to the capital to deliver a letter?"

After Chen Da reminded him, Han Zhan immediately remembered that he had indeed sent Rob back to the capital and sent a letter to Ju Shu. He waved his head to Chen Dao and ordered: "Shuzhi, take the seal and household registration list in his hand."

Chen Dao agreed, bent down and took the tray from the magistrate of Ye County, and then stood aside quietly. Seeing that the seal and ribbon had already been obtained, Han Zhan then stepped forward and helped the magistrate of Ye County.

Han Zhan ordered people to hold a banquet in the county government office and stayed with the county magistrate of Ye to accompany him. At the banquet, Han Zhan tentatively asked the county magistrate of Ye: "Encourt, I want to ask you, how many troops are there in Huang County now?"

"Return to Anyang Marquis," he heard Han Zhan ask himself, the Ye County Magistrate quickly stood up and replied respectfully: "The Huang County Guardian is Gongsun Fan, the younger brother of Gongsun Zan, and he has more than 30,000 horse and infantry soldiers under him."

Gongsun Fan?!When Han Zhan heard this name, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He thought to himself, isn't this person the prefect of Bohai? But then he thought, because of his appearance, Yuan Shao was driven away from Jizhou, and now he is hiding in Bohai County like a stray dog, so Gongsun Fan is not able to serve as the prefect of Bohai for the time being.

Although Gongsun Fan was an unknown person in Han Zhan's mind, no matter what, he still had an army of 30,000. If he couldn't stand it, it would be not easy for him to seize Huang County.

Thinking of this, he continued to ask the Ye County Magistrate: "Emister, I want to send troops to attack Huang County. I wonder how confident do you feel?" Hearing Han Zhan's question, the Ye County Magistrate was stunned. He didn't know how to answer Han Zhan's question.

Seeing that the magistrate of Ye County was not speaking for a long time, Han Zhan guessed his concerns and said with a smile: "Your Majesty does not need to be so restrained. I just ask casually. If you think it is difficult to answer, you don't have to answer this."

"Marquis of Anyang," said the magistrate of Ye County, hesitantly: "Huangxian has high walls and deep pools, and there are heavy troops guarding it. Moreover, these troops are not local county soldiers in Qingzhou, but elite troops from Youzhou. It is probably not easy for Marquis of Anyang to seize it."

Han Zhan originally thought that the 30,000 defenders in Huang County were all local county soldiers, but now he realized that they were actually soldiers from Youzhou. He turned his head and looked at Guan Yu who was sitting aside: "Chang Yun, I wonder if you and Yide are confident of capturing Huang County?"

Guan Yu was a very arrogant person. He was afraid that Han Zhan would look down on him, so he said carelessly: "Marquis of Anyang and Gongsun Fan are just unknown rats. Even if he has 30,000 troops under his command, he was just a native chicken and a tile dog in Guan's opinion. Guan was willing to lead his troops to seize Huangxian and sacrifice with Marquis of Anyang."

When Zhang Fei heard Guan Yu say this, he was naturally not willing to be outdone. He quickly stepped to the middle, stood side by side with Guan Yu, and clasped his fists to Han Zhan and said, "Marquis Anyang, I am willing to go with my second brother and take Huang County together."

Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and the others volunteered together, Han Zhan was ecstatic, but on the surface, he still pretended to be embarrassed: "The total number of soldiers under your command is only 30,000, which is roughly the same as Gongsun Fan's weapons. If you fight in a field battle, you will be sure to win; but when it comes to siege, it may not be so easy to win."

Seeing that Han Zhan did not agree to lead his troops to attack Huang County, Guan Yu was a little anxious. He raised his voice and said, "Marquis of Anyang, Guan is willing to issue a military order. If he cannot take Huang County, he is willing to engage in military law."

"I'm the same," Seeing that Guan Yu was already ruthless, Zhang Fei was naturally unwilling to fall behind, and also shouted loudly: "I am willing to issue a military order. If I can't take Huang County, I will definitely be willing to be the military law."

"Lord!" Zhao Yun saw Han Zhan sitting in the middle without expressing his opinion, thinking that he was worried that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not strong enough, so he hurriedly stepped out and said, "But he still ordered Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to be the vanguard. Yun is willing to lead the army to respond later!"

When Han Zhan saw that Zhao Yun also came out to help, he did not delay the time. Instead, he said to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei: "Yun Chang, Yide, I trust you, and this military order will be exempted. You should rest in the city for one night and wait for another to send troops north to attack Huang County tomorrow."

"Here!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood up and replied.

After the banquet ended, Han Zhan did not stay in the city, but returned to the camp with Zhao Yun and others. On the way, Zhao Yun asked curiously: "Second brother, since Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are willing to issue military orders, why do you deliberately avoid talking about it?"

Han Zhan looked at Zhao Yun with a side face and said, "Brother, do you think that even if Guan and Zhang issued military orders, even if they tried their best, they would not be able to seize Huang County. Do you think I will really deal with them?"

But Han Zhan soon found that he was worried about nothing. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood at the forefront of the team without any arm, and waited for his arrival respectfully! After confirming the character of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Han Zhan suddenly felt relaxed.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and Han Zhan came to him, and quickly bowed their hands and bowed: "I will meet the Marquis of Anyang!"
