Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 518 Dangyang Bridge, Changbanpo

If you want to win Huang Zhong over, the first thing you need is to keep him first.

Zhang Liao already had an idea.

After the severe rebellion in Jingzhou, many official positions were temporarily vacant, even the county guards, and many were replaced. It just so happened that the post of county magistrate of Luo County happened to be vacant. Luo County is a small county, so it cannot be called a county magistrate. , since Liu Biao ordered Liu Pan and Huang Zhong to act according to orders, then Zhang Liao might as well make a life.

Zhang Liao immediately said: "Your Majesty wants to carry out new policies in Luo County, but now Luo County is not the person in charge. The two of you have lived here for a long time, so you should be familiar with the situation. Why don't you leave one of you to take charge of Luo County for the time being."

After saying a word, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong looked at each other in blank dismay.

Which one is this Liao made?To arrange for the county magistrate, shouldn't we arrange for our own people? How could we arrange for them?

The two looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to figure it out for a while.

"General, this..." Liu Pan hesitated to speak, but Zhang Liao spoke first.

"That's right. General Liu needs to lead the army, so naturally he has no time to do both. Why don't you let General Huang be the magistrate of Luo County temporarily?"

Zhang Liao's words were convincing, with a look of indifference, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong couldn't disagree, and could only acquiesce.

Leave Huang Zhong in Luo County, and we can make arrangements in the future.

Zhang Liao stayed in Luo County for one day, and the next day, he bid farewell to Liu Pan and Huang Zhong, and headed for Nanjun. As for Luo County, Zhang Liao had no special arrangements. Since he handed it over to Huang Zhong, he had to trust him. Make this even more true.

After Liu Qing learned about this, he was also happy.

"Wenyuan really has a way to keep Huang Zhong in Luo County. In this way, he can make a big fuss. Yuan Zhi, you tell the powerful families in Luo County that they need to take more care of Huang Zhong, so just say , If you miss this king's important business, you will be punished severely!" Liu Qing said.

Xu Shu smiled and nodded repeatedly. On the one hand, he admired Zhang Liao's method, and on the other hand, the lord's back door was also opened very thoroughly.

In this way, the governance of Luo County must be the best. Maybe in the future, Huang Zhong will be promoted to the top because of his outstanding governance, and finally gradually break away from Liu Biao's control.

As long as you enter the Bohai King's system, you will naturally become the Bohai King's person.

Liu Qing thought for a while, then added, "According to the time, it will be almost ten days. The road to Shu is difficult, but it has been so long, so I should have received my king's trust."

Guo Jia replied. "According to the itinerary, I should have received it."

"Feng Xiao, you said Liu Yan, will he participate?"

"My lord, there is still some time before the agreed date. Liu Yan may be hesitant. At this time, he just needs to prove something to dispel his hesitation."

"How to prove it?"

"Didn't Liu Jingsheng say in his letter that the fighters fight, and the peaceful make peace. Jingzhou has its own army to justify the name of the king."

Liu Qing understands that it may be possible to deter Liu Biao by winning Changsha alone, but it may not be of much use to Yizhou, which is so high and far away. Therefore, the lord needs a big victory to force Liu Yan to take the initiative to leave Yizhou. state.

"This battle may be the last battle for this king to pacify the world." Liu Qing sighed.

"I hope so!"

"My lord, the time has come, and it's time to go meet Liu Biao for a while."

Liu Qing thought to himself: What will happen, mutual acting skills?

However, he still ordered the guards and tiger guards to be ready and set off at any time to catch up with Zhang Liao's schedule.

Liu Qing thought for a while and said: "Xianling Wenhe, the high platform in Fancheng, remind you, don't delay!"

"My lord, Wen He handles affairs without leaking, so please rest assured, my lord." Guo Jia teased.

"This king also hopes that this plan will be a great success. After all, it is the blood of the ancestors. It is best to sit down and talk about things. If you kill each other, you may be laughed at by the world. The damage will ultimately be the authority of the Han Dynasty."

"My lord is wise!"

Liu Qing stayed in Linxiang for another day. Early the next morning, Wang Qi mobilized and headed straight for Jiangling in Nanjun.
-
The news of Luo County's "fall" soon spread to Xiangyang.

Liu Biao still closed the door saying he was sick, and as time passed, everyone became anxious. There was only news of the fall of Luo County, but no news of Liu Pan and Huang Zhong.

Everyone guessed, could it be that the city was destroyed?

When it was time to burn his brows, Zhou Mu actually closed the door to thank the guests. Cai Mao couldn't bear it anymore, and led a group of important people from the state government to directly break into Liu Biao's residence, saying that a strategy must be discussed today to deal with the enemy.

Seeing this behavior, Liu Biao scolded in his heart: "Cai Mao, you are so overstepping."

For some reason, Liu Biao suddenly thought of He Jin. At the beginning, he was appointed as the Marquis of the Chinese Army and was in charge of important areas in Gyeonggi. After the Yellow Turban, he was named a general, and his behavior was a bit out of bounds. In the end, he was still killed by the eunuch.

Now the Cai family is married to Liu Biao, and Cai Mao has become the "Uncle Zhou". With the growing power of the Cai family, Liu Biao watched Cai Mao become more and more violent.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao became even more determined in his heart to meet the King of Bohai. What the King of Bohai said was true. He is powerful, but he is powerful after all. He only has his own interests in his eyes. I blame him for being a newcomer and having no one to rely on. In the end, he used their strength to settle down in one fell swoop. Jingzhou, take a firm seat on this Jingzhou.

But what next?
"My lord, General Cai is here."

Liu Biao made up his mind and ordered.

Not long after, a group of people appeared in front of Liu's residence, discussing a lot, and Liu Biao, who was already upset, became even more confused.

"My lord, I heard that Luo County has been lost, Liu Pan, Huang Zhong and the others..." Cai Mao spoke first, and then Liu Pan spoke.

"I already know about this matter, and I also know that the army of King Bohai is marching towards Nanjun."

Cai Mao took a step forward and said, "My lord, we know that the King of Bohai has a large army, so we called on the counties and counties to urgently recruit troops. Now there are more than [-] old and new soldiers in Jiangling."

Liu Biao sighed in his heart, Jingzhou's war potential was still quite large, after giving Cai Mao a period of time, he actually mobilized tens of thousands more, but Liu Biao also knew in his heart that this was just a mob.

Cai Mao continued to talk eloquently, "If we defend the city, we will be able to persist for a long time. At that time, we will send troops to intercept the Bohai King's grain road. Once the grain road is broken, the army will collapse!"

Liu Biao sneered in his heart: The idea is very good, why can't even beat Sun Ce in Changsha?He also wanted to block the cavalry of the King of Bohai. A few years ago, the King of Bohai had no fear in the face of millions of Qingzhou yellow scarves. How could he be afraid of the tens of thousands of recruits in Jingzhou?

"The general wants to compete with the King of Bohai in Jiangling?" Liu Biao asked.

"Exactly!"

"What if King Bohai's soldiers and horses raid Xiangyang? You know, Nanyang was still in the hands of King Bohai before, and now Hanzhong Shangyong is occupied by King Bohai. These two places are bordering Xiangyang. If you come to attack Xiangyang, what should you do?" Liu Biao asked.

Cai Mao was at a loss for words for a while, if the enemy attacked from all directions, this problem would be really difficult, and Xiangyang had no danger to defend except for a Han River as a natural barrier.

"My lord, please order Huang Zu's water army to defend Xiangyang."

"General Zhang, don't forget that Huang Zu's navy is trapped in Dongting, and now the water army stationed on the river outside Xiangyang City is King Bohai's navy."

Cai Mao listened and glanced at Zhang Yun, as if confirming the authenticity of the matter.

Zhang Yun said he didn't know, he had just returned from Fangling.

In the end, it was Kuai Yue who said, "If the city of Xiangyang isn't fortified, don't worry too much. I'm more worried about Jiangling."

Liu Biao gave Kuai Yue a meaningful look.

You are more worried about Kuai's property in Jiangling.

Liu Biao cast his eyes on Kuai Liang and asked, "Zirou, tell me what should be done?"

Kuai Liang cupped his hands and stepped forward, saying: "Master, the King of Bohai is coming in such a menacing manner that it is unstoppable. Instead of fighting him, it is better to sit down and discuss any conflicts. We can resolve them by talking, and there is no need to meet with swordsmen."

As soon as Kuai Liang said something, Kuai Yue became impatient with him.

"Zirou, you!"

Kuai Liang shook his head, but he was helpless and ignored it.

After talking for a long time, I couldn't tell the reason. In the end, it was the way Cai Mao proposed, and the big guys actively agreed.

After everyone dispersed, Liu Biao's face was very ugly.
-
Nanjun's water network is densely covered, and the march is winding, but it is often delayed by waterways. During this period, because Cai Mao gathered his troops to the generals, he encountered almost no resistance along the way.

"Feng Xiao, Cai Mao defended Jiangling with the power of a state, is there a way to deal with it?"

"My lord, the best way to deal with it is not to deal with it and lead the snake out of its hole."

"what for?"

"Jiangling's city walls are not only high, but also the moat is wide and deep. If you attack by force, it will be difficult. I think the best way is to pass the generals and continue northward to Xiangyang. I don't believe it. They can hold their breath. As long as If they dare to go out of the city to pursue them, then it will be easy."

It is actually a very dangerous move to jump over the city and enter the army. Unfortunately, for Liu Qing, the risk factor is very low, because the combat effectiveness of Liu Qing's logistics team may not be underestimated.

If the enemy army wants to sneak attack, they have to weigh their own strength.

"Okay, let's act according to this plan, bypass Jiangling, go straight to Dangyang, and see if Cai Mao can bear it."

With an order, the army directly changed direction, from northwest to north, and marched towards Dangyang.

Go to Dangyang and come to a bridge.

"stop!"

Liu Qing stopped the army suddenly, and continued: "Wait here and wait."

Afterwards, he went to the wooden bridge alone, reined in his horse and turned back, and at a glance, there were thousands of troops and horses.

Liu Qing also felt the feeling of being on the Dangyang Bridge, one rider is a thousand, one man is a passerby.

It's just that the shouts of "who will fight to the death" in the second grade are missing.

Zhang Liao, Guo Jia, Dian Wei and other generals were all at a loss.

Zhang Liao: "My lord, what are you doing?"

Dian Wei shook his head, expressing that he couldn't see through.

Guo Jia was thoughtful: "Perhaps, he was looking at the scenery, or maybe he was thinking about something."

Wen Chou also yelled: "Looking at the lord's posture, it seems that he wants to fight us."

Yan Liang: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb."

Really, it's obvious that he is wearing a sinful body, but he just wants to join in the fun and interrupt.

No one knows, but Wen Chou is the only one who guessed right.

Liu Qing tested his senses back and forth on the bridge, but he didn't have the sense of urgency to escape, and the soldiers and horses in front of him were not enemy troops, and he didn't have that kind of nonsense.

Dull.

When Liu Qing was about to move on, the cavalry whistle suddenly came to report: "There are soldiers and horses from Jiangling, and they are heading east."

"You got hooked so quickly!" Liu Qing said in surprise.

"Cai Mao has no choice."

Liu Qing took a look at Yan Liangwenchou and said, "Yan Liangwenchou, you two lead the army, go and meet!"

"Decree!" Yan Liangwen was ugly, very happy.

In this expedition, they have not participated in the battle yet, but they have recovered Yangzhou and Changsha. It is amazing that the two of them have not experienced the feeling of bloody battle.

And this time, he can finally kill and make great achievements.

A group of soldiers and horses quickly separated and chased east of Jiangling.

Half an hour later, Yan Liangwen Chou saw an army flying a "Cai" flag.

"It was actually Cai Mao who came personally, Wen Chou, don't fight me, I'm going to kill this guy alive!" Yan Liang immediately accelerated his speed.

Wen Chou was in a hurry to drive his horse, and at the same time shouted: "First come, first served!"

The cavalry led by the two were all at a loss. The two vanguard generals rushed forward yelling without even giving an order, leaving them in a mess in the wind.

However, having experienced many battles, they naturally knew how to cooperate, so the army started to charge without saying a word.

Originally, Cai Zhong led a team of light cavalry to pursue Liu Qing's luggage without any haste. Then, Cai Zhong suddenly noticed that there seemed to be dense hoofbeats coming from them.

"Report—General Cai, there are soldiers and horses coming from the rear!"

When Cai Zhong heard this, he became anxious on the spot.

"Why were you discovered just after you came out? Hurry up and fight!" Cai Zhong ordered.

However, a cavalry began to turn around on the spot, and for a while, the neat formation changed into chaos.

"Hurry up, didn't you see that the enemy was about to kill you!" Cai Zhong shouted, and then complained casually: "A bunch of recruits, what the hell."

The voice was inaudible, but it was not heard by the soldiers, which aroused public outrage.

However, it was too late.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were almost at the same pace, advancing side by side, one holding a broadsword and the other holding a long spear, and rushed into the enemy's formation almost at the same time.

Cai Zhong's cavalry formation was dense and chaotic, and there were horses facing any direction. Yan Liang would not be merciless. Under the slash of the sword, the two cavalrymen in front of the formation were beheaded directly, and their heads went up to the sky. Cai Jun was shocked.

And Wen Chou shot forward and rushed into the formation. An enemy soldier in front of him was about to attack with a spear. But it didn't weaken, the spear continued to pass through, Wen Chou turned slightly to avoid his desperate fight, loosened his right hand, and the spear stabbed firmly on him.

Wen Chou leaned out half of his body again, pulled the man over with one hand, held the blood-stained gun handle behind him with the other hand, and ran straight forward.

That long spear passed through like this, leaving a transparent hole.

Wen Chou's hands were covered with blood, and Yan Liang's face was splattered several times. He hadn't fought for a long time. He thought that his martial skills and combat awareness would decline, but he didn't expect that once the blood was on them, the fighting spirit in their hearts would burn.
