Chapter 24: Beacon Smoke in Youzhou

Facing the sudden attack of the Yellow Turban Army and Gongsun Du, when Gongsun Zan, the governor of Peiping, was discussing countermeasures with his generals in the palace, the spies ran in in a hurry.

"Reporting to my lord, Gongsun Du's army has now occupied the two places of Wu Ending and Jun Mi! And the momentum is overwhelming, with no signs of stopping at all!"

"I know, let's explore again!"

"promise!"

"Lord, please give me instructions, what should we do?"

"Gongsun Fan, Gongsun Yue"

"The end is here!"

"You can lead an army of ten thousand to the north to reinforce Shanjing and prevent Wuhuan from taking advantage of the opportunity."

"promise!"

"Yan Gang, Zhao Yun, Tian Kai"

While talking, the three of them clasped their fists together and said

"The end is here!"

"Yan Gang and Tian Kai led 20,000 troops westward to Yuyang and other counties to suppress the Yellow Turban bandits."

"promise!"

"Zhao Yun accompanied me to the east to fight against Gongsun Du."

"promise!"

After the order was issued, Gongsun Zan's army was divided into three, and set off in three directions: west, north, and east at the same time...

In Bingzhou, because the previous governor Ding Yuan died and the court has not yet sent a new governor, Bingzhou is now in a leaderless state. It is also the state where the Yellow Turban Army is the most rampant among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

Now, the Yellow Turban Army in Bingzhou has basically gathered together. There are about 50,000 to 60,000 people. At this moment, they are attacking Zhang Yang's Shangdang County. However, Zhang Yang's headquarters only has 20,000 troops, so he cannot fight with the Yellow Turban Army at all.

They were slashing at each other, so they could only cower inside the city. The yellow turbans below the city were marching towards the city. On the city tower, there were already rows of archers with their bows and arrows pointed at them. They were just waiting for the Yellow Turbans to enter the shooting range.

But the Yellow Turban Army suddenly stopped outside the shooting range.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Yang asked Dong Zhao, the counselor next to him.

"Why are they not moving?"

Dong Zhao could see the reason at a glance

"Lord, look at the woods ahead."

Following Dong Zhao's hand, he saw a flock of birds flying away above the forest.

"I see, they are cutting down trees to build ladders."

"That's right, and the group of people below have two purposes. One is to prevent us from leaving the city and going into the woods; the other is to wait for us to go down and fight with them. Now, whether we leave the city or not, we are already the turtles in the jar.

"

"Then what should we do? They have more than twice as many people as we do. If we really have to fight, we can't win.

"

"Has my lord sent a message to your friend Lu Bu asking for help?"

"Following Sir's plan, Fei Ge's letter was sent out and sergeants were also sent there."

After hearing Zhang Yang's words, Dong Zhao also took a breath, closed his eyes and said

"In this case, I have no other idea. I can only pray that Lu Bu will treat my lord as a friend..."



"I never expected that yellow scarf thieves would appear in this land of Xiliang"

“It seems that other places will only have more, not less.”

Ma Teng and Han Sui looked at the fighting armies in front of them and made a rough guess about the situation in the Central Plains.

"We can't win, run away!"

Among the rebels, a Yellow Turban soldier ran backwards, and the Yellow Turban soldiers behind him began to flee like dominoes.

"The bandit army is defeated, brothers, come with me and charge to the death!"

Among the Xiliang cavalry, there was a young general with a face like a crown of jade and eyes like shooting stars. He had a tiger body and ape arms, a belly and a wolf waist. He was so handsome. Looking at the Yellow Turban Army escaping in a hurry, he was like

Raise the spear in your hand, command the cavalry behind you, and run towards them!

Ma Teng, who was standing behind watching the show, shouted at him

"Meng Qi, don't chase after poor bandits! Be careful of fraud!"

But now Ma Chao was in the middle of a killing spree and didn't hear Ma Teng's words at all.

"Oh, Ling Ming, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Don't worry, my lord, I will protect you in the end!"

When the horse's belly was pinched, the white horse neighed and began to chase Ma Chao...



The war brought not only casualties but also poisonous plots. In Xiangyang, Jingzhou, Cai Mao was discussing with his sister, Mrs. Cai, about the next lord of Jingzhou.

"Sister, now that the Yellow Turbans are back again, we can make some use of them."

After listening to Cai Mao's words, Mrs. Cai did not look back at him, but was dressing up in the mirror.

"what are you planning to do?"

"Now that my lord has passed the age of bewilderment, he must have the idea of ​​​​choosing the next lord of Jingzhou. Sister, your pillow strategy has not yet yielded results, so I plan to do it without stopping and take advantage of this time.

If you have the opportunity, kill Liu Qi directly, so that the lord can only choose Liu Cong as his successor!"

"Since you have already made a plan, I won't say anything more. Remember, do it beautifully and don't reveal your flaws."

"Don't worry, sister!"

After all, Cai Mao

Then he turned around and left the house, leading a few people outside the door and starting to rush towards Liu Qi's house...

"The eldest son! The eldest son!"

There was an urgent knock on the door, and the servant quickly ran over to open the door.

"Is the eldest master here?!"

"Young master is in the study now"

Upon hearing the location, Cai Mao and his soldiers immediately ran to the study.

"Master!"

With a loud shout, Liu Qi, who was reading, was interrupted from his thoughts. He looked up and saw Cai Hao, and immediately lost his temper.

"General Cai, now that the enemy has invaded, why did you come to me instead of killing the enemy?"

Cai Mao immediately knelt on the ground and said while crying

"My eldest son, the Yellow Turbans are causing chaos. My lord is concerned about the safety of the people, so he personally leads the soldiers to meet the enemy. However, he is accidentally injured by a hidden arrow. Now he is lying in the bedroom. His life is in danger at this moment. I am afraid that he will not die soon. My eldest son

Come and have a look with me!"

Liu Qishu dropped his book to the ground when he heard this.

"Father...Father, he...quickly, take me there quickly!"

"Master, please!"

At this moment, Liu Qi was in a daze and couldn't even keep a straight line while walking.

And just as the two were setting off, on a deserted road, dozens of Yellow Turbans suddenly appeared in front of them.

"They are the Yellow Turban thieves! General Cai, kill them quickly!"

Liu Qi shouted and looked back, but when he turned his head, he found that Cai Mao had disappeared.

"kill!"

As he spoke, the group of Yellow Turban soldiers rushed towards Liu Qi. When Liu Qi saw this, he knew that he had been fooled. He had no choice but to ride his horse backwards and escape. Logically speaking, they would never be able to catch up with Liu Qi on horseback, but since it was

Trap, how could you not be prepared?

"Fire the arrow!"

Hearing an order from behind, several arrows passed by him. In an instant, he heard a neigh. The horse under his crotch was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground. Liu Qi was thrown down. After Liu Qi rolled around, he immediately got up.

He ran forward, but felt abnormal pain in his right leg. When he looked back, he saw an arrow hit his calf. But Liu Qi wanted to survive, so he gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and limped forward one step at a time, but

How could he be compared to a soldier with sound legs now? A thief was catching up right before his eyes!

"Take your life!"

Along with the shouting, the knife in his hand was raised high, and then he slashed towards Liu Qi's back. But suddenly, the movement in the man's hand stopped, and the knife stayed a few centimeters away from Liu Qi's back.
