Chapter 217
After Gu Changan returned to Changan City, the entire court seemed to have not changed much except for some personnel changes.
Liu Yan, the governor of Yizhou, looked no different from other officials in the court.
He was now the head of the clan, managing the Han royal family.
His eldest son and second son were both alive.
The family was reunited and was very happy.
Now in Changan City, the hottest topic was the legendary story of General Gu Changan’s surprise attack on Yizhou.
This battle was so legendary that everyone talked about it with relish….
Hu Ji’s shop is located on the edge of the outer city of Chang’an.
There are many people coming and going here every day, and all kinds of gossips are flying around.
Many foreign merchants and travelers like to gather here after they come to Chang’an City for the first time.
Because here they can find out about many things.
Two extraordinary and heroic men walked through the noisy crowd in the shop.
They found a table by the window and sat down.
Soon Hu Ji came over to pour tea and water.
The two men ordered a large pot of mutton soup, including several Hu cakes.
While waiting for the mutton soup and Hu cakes to be served.

They were also listening to the loud conversations of the people around them. They tried to find the information they were interested in from the chaotic and noisy sounds.
“The general must be the reincarnation of the Overlord, otherwise how could he be so powerful!”
“This is pure nonsense. Is the record of Overlord Xiang Yu as good as that of the general? The general is obviously a god or demon from heaven who has descended to earth!”
“The general was indeed a hero. He launched an ambush along the long street in front and defeated 300 elite soldiers alone. Then he launched a surprise attack thousands of miles away and conquered Yizhou in one battle!”
“……”
At this time, mutton soup and Hu pancakes were already on the table.
The two men drank the delicious mutton soup while eating the soft Hu pancakes.
They couldn’t help but frown as they listened to the gossip of the people around them.
“”Gongjin, we have been so busy on our journey that we seem to have missed something important!” One of the men said to the other.
These two men were Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who came to Chang’an City from Jiangdong and were preparing to seek refuge in Chang’an.
Zhou Yu nodded, looking a little shocked:”Bofu, it seems that the general has taken Yizhou!”
“Moreover, he used a surprise attack and conquered Yizhou in one battle!”
“How is this possible?”Sun Ce couldn’t believe it.
He shook his head and said,”Yizhou has natural barriers and has always been easy to defend but difficult to attack!”
“I don’t know how the general will launch a surprise attack.”
Zhou Yu smiled and said,”If you want to know, it’s not difficult!”
He looked around and found a person who was eating alone.
Although this person did not participate in the chatter around him, he remained calm no matter what the people around him were talking about.
Obviously, he was already familiar with what everyone was talking about.
Zhou Yu walked over and bowed, with very proper etiquette.
“My brother, we came from Jiangdong and heard everyone was discussing it very lively!”
“I wonder if you understand this, brother? Why don’t you eat with us at the same table?”
The man Zhou Yu asked raised his head and saw a large pot of mutton soup on the table of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.
His eyes lit up and he immediately stood up:”Okay, okay!”
After saying that, he picked up his offal soup and Hu Bing and walked over very consciously.
Sun Ce was also very discerning.
He quickly served this man a large bowl of mutton soup
“What you two don’t know is that the previous rebellion in Guanzhong involved Liu Yan, the governor of Yizhou!”
“So when the general went to attack Liu Yan, people all over the world thought that the natural barrier of Yizhou was difficult to conquer!”
“But I didn’t expect the general to find another way……”
This man was also very eloquent.
He exaggerated what he knew and made a big fuss about it.
It was as if he had followed Gu Chang’an personally.
He described Gu Chang’an’s wisdom and bravery, how he overcame difficulties and obstacles, and how he attacked Yizhou.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other.
They could see shock in each other’s eyes.
They never thought that
General Gu Chang’an would have such a wonderful idea.
Yizhou is difficult to conquer by natural barriers.
He took advantage of this natural barrier and everyone’s fluke mentality.
Instead, he bypassed all the passes in Yizhou from a dangerous place full of dangers.
He quietly appeared in the hinterland of Yizhou with 30,000 troops. But he had concealed his true intentions before.
He made everyone think that he was attacking Hanzhong.
As a result, the army of Liu Yan, the governor of Yizhou, was mobilized.
As a result, the hinterland of Chengdu was empty of troops.
In fact, there was no empty force, and there were more than 70,000 soldiers and horses.
Who would have thought that Gu Chang’an would defeat the enemy with fewer troops and defeat them directly.
In this way, Liu Yan was forced to surrender.
People kept coming in and out of Hu Ji’s inn, and they were noisy.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu got the answers they wanted to know.
They left Hu Ji’s inn directly.
After they returned to the inn, their companions who went out to inquire about the news came back.
This time they called their friends.
Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Song Qian and others followed Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to Chang’an City.
“It really opened my eyes. I never thought Yizhou could be conquered like this!” Cheng Pu was amazed.
“It is indeed unimaginable and incredible. The general is truly a hero!” Huang Gai also echoed.
“Haha!” Sun Ce laughed:”You can rest assured now, it is definitely worth it to join the general!”
Zhou Tai nodded and said:”I hope we can be of use, and not let ourselves be wasted like this!”
Han Dang asked:”Shall we go to submit our visiting card tomorrow?”
Zhou Yu nodded:”Let’s go tomorrow, time waits for no one, we must establish merit as soon as possible!”
Jiang Qin was a little fascinated:”I wonder how the general will arrange us!”
“Don’t worry!” Sun Ce said:”The general doesn’t look at background at all, he only looks at ability!”
“I have full confidence in the abilities of us!”……
“What?”
“Sun Jian’s son Sun Ce came to seek refuge with his friends Zhou Yu, Huang Gai and others?”
Gu Chang’an was shocked.
Why did Sun Ce and Zhou Yu come to Chang’an City?…… ps:▄█ˉ█●
