Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 78
When the young scribe was about to offer advice and persuasion, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent.

directly interrupted his continuation.

Soon, a soldier walked in directly with a dusty face.

When Zhang Rao saw the person coming, his expression changed immediately, and he went straight to the point:
"But have you found out the purpose of that Cao army?"

This soldier was the sentinel he sent to follow the Cao army before.

The strong wind knows the strong grass.

Today's Zhang Rao can be said to have fallen to the bottom.

At this time, if you can follow the ground without abandoning it, you are naturally a true confidant.

Not only is there no problem with his loyalty, but he also does his best to explain to him, no matter how big or small.

The sentinel also knew that his commander Qu was very concerned about this matter, so once he found out the situation, he quickly returned to the Juxian camp, intending to report the news to Zhang Rao as soon as possible.

"Report Qu Shuai." The sentinel quickly replied before he had time to salute: "The villain and a few brothers followed all the way and found out."

"The trilogy of the Cao army was dispatched by Cao Cao from Xuzhou to Qingzhou to put down the rebellion."

"Squeeze the chaos?" Zhang Rao was taken aback when he heard the words, a little confused: "Where is the chaos?"

"Qi County, Zhao County."

"Zhao County?" Zhang Rao recalled the approximate location in his mind, um, it's not too far from here.

No wonder Cao Jun passed by here.

While thinking about it, he asked, "Who caused the disturbance?"

"A young man named Wang Zheng, originally a chief of the Qingzhou military camp, not long ago claimed to be the reincarnation of Zhang Jiao, gathered a crowd to rebel, and then killed officials and robbed Taoists."

"presumptuous!"

Hearing this, Zhang Rao straightened up abruptly, and shouted angrily, "Zhu Zi really deserves to be killed!"

During the first Yellow Turban Uprising, it was because of Zhang Rao that Qingzhou became the first big state to respond to Zhang Jiao.

Even if it is clear that this kind of bluffing and deception is a trick commonly used by such peasant rebels.

But out of respect for the great virtuous teacher, Zhang Rao was suddenly furious.

"He is handsome and calm down."

Seeing this, the young scribe quickly spoke out to comfort him: "Let this sentry finish his sentence first."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the sentinel: "How many people has this Wang Zheng gathered?"

"About [-] people. The villain is afraid of being discovered by Cao Jun, so he dare not get too close." The sentinel thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "However, a county town should not exceed this number by much."

Hearing this, the young man immediately showed disappointment, while Zhang Rao snorted coldly.

"It's cheap, it's too easy to die."

In their view, it was impossible for this number of people to stop the Cao army.

What they saw that day was exactly the trilogy led by Yu Jin Niugai, and the two roughly estimated that there were more than four to five thousand people.

It is even more powerful, the army is clean, and the army is absolutely strong.

At that time, Zhang Rao looked at the capital from a distance and paled in horror.

He remembered the fiasco not long ago.

The scene of 30 yellow scarves being directly crushed by [-] Cao Jun seems to be vivid.

They are also bandits of the Yellow Turbans, and they know their own family affairs. With such a force, let alone [-] Yellow Turbans, even [-] Yellow Turbans may not be able to match.

Consciously knowing the victory or defeat, Shuzi was defeated and killed, Zhang Rao's anger dissipated a lot, and he also felt that his spirits were waning.

He didn't bother to ask about the battle situation, it was nothing more than familiar scenes.

My family has experienced it many times, so how can I still be interested in listening to it?
He waved his hand casually at the sentinel: "You have worked hard all this way, please take a good rest first, the commander has his own reward."

The sentinel was stunned when he heard this, and opened his mouth, hesitant to speak.

Seeing that Zhang Rao had closed his eyes and fell asleep, the sentinel hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands, turned around and was about to go out of the tent.

The young man originally held the same opinion as Zhang Rao, thinking that the young man named Wang Zheng and his troops might have been completely wiped out by the army.

I just saw a change in the look of the sentinel, and suddenly my heart moved.

The other party traveled long distances day and night, and his face was tired at this time, but he was still in a faintly excited mood.

Anyway, just ask a question.

"Wait a minute." The young man took the initiative to speak, stepped forward and asked softly:

"How is the result?"

Before the sentinel opened his mouth, Zhang Rao said in surprise, "Zhao Hong, what is there to ask?"

"That yellow turban must either flee or surrender, what else can happen?"

Hearing this, the sentinel finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said directly: "Shuai Qu, the Qingzhou brothers in Zhao County neither fled nor surrendered."

"They wiped out the officers and soldiers!"

As soon as this statement came out, the stone was shocked.

"What did you say?"

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhang Rao and Zhao Hong spoke almost at the same time, and then their eyes met.

Both of them saw the disbelief on the other's face.

And the sentinel, after saying this, was already in high spirits.

Followed all the way, although he was far away, he and his colleagues could still see clearly.

From Niugai to Yuban.

They had a panoramic view of Wang Zheng's process of eliminating Cao Jun from beginning to end.

They are both from Qingzhou and members of the Yellow Turbans, and their moods also fluctuated from beginning to end.

From unwillingness to surprise.

When Yu Jin broke through the city gate, how they felt chilled and desperate like death.
When Xu Fang led the troops to attack, how proudly they cheered up!
As soon as the chatterbox was opened, there was nothing to say.

After the sentinel had told him all he had seen and heard along the way, Zhang Rao was stunned for a while, and then remained silent for a long time.

He was a little unacceptable, and even more suspicious of life.

Ten thousand Yellow Turban soldiers defeated four or five thousand regular troops?

Still wiped out?

Zhao Hong, who was on the side, showed a happy face, first waved away the sentinel who was getting more and more excited, turned to look at Zhang Rao, and suddenly leaned down on the ground, shouting excitedly:

"He's handsome, I'm overjoyed."

"Huh?" Zhang Rao just woke up from his sluggishness, and he was puzzled when he heard the words: "Zhao Hong, where did you say that?"

"When Qu Shuai was swimming in the shallow water, the son of Wang Zheng, who descended from heaven, was assisting Qu Shuai to achieve great things."

"Zhao Hong, you are confused." When Zhang Rao heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and shook his head:
"That Zhu Zi dared to claim that Zhang Jiao was reincarnated, how could he be subservient to help me?"

"No, no." Zhao Hong looked confident, as if he had a plan in mind:

"Don't forget, Commander Qu, those soldiers and horses of Wang Zheng, including Wang Zheng, were also soldiers under your command a year ago!"

"That Wang Zheng used the name of General Tiangong to gather nearly ten thousand warriors from Qingzhou to rebel."

"Such lies can only be deceived for a while, but can they be deceived forever?"

"If he is knowledgeable and willing to serve Shuai Qu, with Qu Shuai's prestige in our Qingzhou, you can support him, help to dispel this lie, and give him a false title. We only need a strong army."

"If not, we can also expose this son's lie. Without the prestige of General Tiangong, this group of people who can defeat the official army, isn't Commander Qu willing to use all of them with a wave?"

"Well, it makes sense." Zhang Rao nodded again and again, feeling that Zhao Hong's analysis was good.

I just thought of setting foot in Qingzhou Qi County, thinking that it was Cao Cao's sphere of influence.

Still feeling dark and hesitant.
