Chapter 52 The door is wide open
"Lieutenant Bing, the person has been brought."

Niu Gai nodded, and sat there with a big knife and a golden horse, staring straight at the person who came, without saying a word.

It seemed that his eyes were too frightening, and the visitor was stared at with embarrassment. He first bowed and saluted nervously, and then said:

"Villain Fubo, I pay my respects to the general."

"Well"

Just as Niu Gai was about to speak, Ma Lao looked at the visitor carefully for a while, and then whispered to the people around him. He couldn't help showing joy, and hurriedly approached Niu Gai, and said in his ear:
"General, this person is the gate guard who let me out of the city a few days ago. He seems to be a small captain of the bandit army."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Niu Gai raised his thick eyebrows, looked at Fu Bo calmly, and suddenly asked sharply:
"Since you are a bandit, seeing our army not only did not flee, but came to join us, why?"

"Could it be that you want to die?"

When he said this, Niu Gai's eyes showed a fierce look, and more than a dozen guard soldiers around him also drew their swords out of their sheaths, full of murderous aura.

Seeing such a scene, Fu Bo seemed to be frightened, and couldn't help but fell to his knees with a plop:
"Excuse me, General."

When he first set foot here, he had already seen Ma Lao and the others, he sighed secretly in his heart, but he cried out in mourning:
"The villain was originally a soldier under Zhou Mu's tent, and he never had the heart of rebellion."

"Before, Wang Zheng gathered people to rebel in the military camp. There were so many people, and those who disobeyed were killed. Even the captain of the military camp at that time, Gong Xu, was brutally killed by him. The villain was forced to follow the thief."

"The villain knows that he has committed a crime. Today, when he saw a large number of soldiers and horses appearing outside the county, he guessed that it was the army sent by the state pastor to quell the chaos."

"I immediately looked for an opportunity to go out of the city and come to see the general. I only hope that I can redeem my merits and hope that the general will learn from me."

When he learned Fu Bo's identity from Ma Lao, Niu Gai had already guessed the other party's intention. Even so, when the other party confirmed it himself, Niu Gai was still ecstatic and couldn't help laughing.

"Good good."

He looked at Fubo approvingly.

"Since you have loyalty in your heart, as long as you can help our army defeat the thieves, you will have made a great contribution."

"Ben will be able to assure you that not only will you not be held accountable for all the past, but there will also be rewards."

It's fine if it's other thieves, Niu Gai may not take it to heart, but Fu Bo is different.

Not only shouldering the duty of guarding the city gate, but also an officer giving orders, that is the most suitable candidate for internal response at the moment.

Hearing this, Fu Bo kowtowed again and again, with a look of gratitude:

"Thank you, General, the villain will definitely serve his life to the death!"

"Haha, I don't need you to die."

Since this guy turned himself into a thief out of fear of death, Niu Gai naturally wouldn't take his words seriously, but asked slowly:

"Your mind, I would have known it, but I don't know if your subordinates can be the same as you, with one heart and one mind?"

Knowing that Niu Gai still had concerns, Fu Bo kept Wang Zheng's instructions in mind, and quickly explained:

"The general can rest assured."

"During this time, Wang Zheng was dreaming of being an emperor all day long. Not only did he consume a lot of people's resources, but he also extorted a lot of money. He swallowed all the wealth he got, completely disregarding other brothers."

"Everyone can see that it is completely useless to follow him, and they are always in danger of their lives. The morale of the army has long been slackened, and nearly a thousand deserters have appeared."

"Today, when I saw the general appearing with troops and horses, I knew that Wang Zheng's group would be destroyed soon."

"Since he never shared his wealth with us, who is willing to accompany him to die? To tell you the truth, the general, I was entrusted by all the brothers in the four city gates this time, and I only asked the general to let them live after they broke the city. "

"Ah."

Comparing the other party's words with those of Ma Lao, Niu Gai knew that the situation of Wang Zheng was becoming more and more corrupt at this time, so he couldn't help but feel relieved and nodded in satisfaction.

Suddenly curious, he couldn't help asking: "Wang Zheng has become emperor? What name?"

Fu Bo shook his head: "Proclaiming the emperor is an act of madness and immorality, and the order has been changed day and night, saying that the queen must be elected first, so in the past few days, all the unmarried women in Zhao County have been screened, and today they are finally selected. A beauty is destined to become emperor in the future."

"Hahaha, this stick is really"

Niu Gai shook his head again and again: "He shouldn't be dawdling like this, at least he can have a good time. Now that the general has arrived, he has no chance."

"That's just right. He has been busy proclaiming himself emperor these two days, so he must have no time to care about other things. Since you all have the intention to do anything else, block the news that my army has arrived."

"Get ready when you go back, well, the time is set at Haishi tomorrow."

"When the time comes, you raise the fire as a signal, open the city gate, and I will lead the army forward, and I will be able to complete my meritorious service in one battle!"

"Little man obeys."

Looking at the other person's leaving figure, Niu Gai stroked his chin contentedly.

The big picture is set.

The next day, near the appointed time.

Under the leadership of Niu Gai, the army has traveled one mile outside the city in the dark.

In the silence, the cavalry lined up and held their breath, except for the occasional neighing of healthy horses.

Niu Gai turned his head and glared at them.

The animals are ignorant, and the blame for the commotion rests entirely on these cavalrymen.

Seeing that the general was angry, several people reined in their horses one after another to appease them, but they still had a smile on their faces, without shame, as if they felt that their captain was making a fuss over a molehill.

It's just a group of yellow turban bandits, so why be so careful?

The news of the thieves' lack of morale, and the internal opening of the city, has already spread throughout the entire team since yesterday, and everyone knows it.

At this time, everyone felt that they had a chance to win, and in the cold moonlight, they could see the relaxed expression on everyone's face.

It seemed that what they were going to do next was not a fight, but an outing.

He really regarded Wang Zheng and other Yellow Turban thieves in Zhao County as rice-like objects that could be harvested at will.

If it weren't for Cao Cao's strict military regulations, many people had suffered, and I'm afraid they would all be chatting and laughing at this time.

But even so, many people's minds are either thinking about how to grab the head to accumulate military merits after entering the city, or they are going to rob the big family's house before their colleagues.

A brash man like Niu Gai didn't notice the mentality imbalance in the team at all, instead he felt that the morale of his team was high, which was just the morale of the army.

He just turned around, more because of his impatience after waiting for a long time, than because he really felt that there was something wrong with making some noise.

When he turned around and looked up again, his eyes suddenly lit up.

On the top of the city, several torches have appeared at this time, shaking constantly in the darkness, and they are extremely vivid.

The signal is coming, the city gate is about to open!
Overjoyed, Niu Gai waved his hand quickly, and the whole team started to approach the city gate in an instant.

When he was about to finish his work, Niu Gai, who was full of confidence, was a little hesitant at this moment. He wanted to run faster, but he was afraid that there would be too much noise, which would alert the city to changes.

Of course, nothing unexpected happened.

At a distance of one mile, the cavalrymen did not dare to let go of the sound of hooves, and they arrived at the door in just a moment.

The rusty iron chain kept shaking, and amidst a harsh friction sound, the gate was slowly pulled up.

Finally, the door of Zhao County was wide open.

Niu Gai was completely relieved, and without any scruples, he laughed loudly, and immediately rushed in first.

A thousand cavalry followed closely behind, cheered loudly, and rushed into the city equally quickly.
