Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 72
"The general has an order to dismantle all of these quickly, and destroy all unfinished and irreplaceable ones. Don't keep them for the enemy!"

"Team leader, this trebuchet will be finished in a few days, why is it going to be demolished again?" the craftsman who was doing the work asked puzzledly, why was it suddenly about to be destroyed when he was rushing to catch up with the work in the past few days?

"If you ask you to dismantle it, you will dismantle it. How can there be so much nonsense? Do you want to send you to see General Dong and ask you in person?" The team leader said angrily, and he was also puzzled. Why was he about to withdraw suddenly, but the superior order, can I ask more!

The craftsman fell silent immediately, holding the iron pendant in his hand, staring at the semi-finished product in a daze.

"Hurry up, you!" The team leader urged after him.

The camp of the officers and soldiers was in full swing. Those who moved supplies, moved camps and pulled out tents, the former army had already marched northward, and a lot of food, grass and luggage had also been on the road.

Even if they are far away from the top of Guangzong city, they can clearly see this scene.

"Brother, why did the officers and troops withdraw suddenly? Could it be that their rations have run out?" Zhang Liang looked at the enemy camp with a stern expression, holding a phoenix-mouthed long knife.

The two had been standing for about half an hour, observing every move of the enemy camp.

Zhang Jiao's face was pale, his long hair was loose, and his eyes gleamed fiercely.

"It's not like a false retreat." Zhang Jiao said, if the enemy retreated falsely, they would just leave, why destroy the facilities, "They are going to the second brother's place."

"How about I lead the army out and try it out?" Zhang Liang suggested.

"No need today, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Since that's the case, elder brother, go back early. I'm afraid that the disease will recur. Just leave it to me to inspect the camps." Zhang Liang persuaded. Zhang Jiao was obviously ill, but he still inspected the camps in person every day. Zhang Liang said many times , Zhang Jiao is not accepted.

Hearing this, Zhang Jiao suddenly looked at Zhang Liang.

"Third brother, you must remember that stabilizing the morale of the army is the top priority for the general. If I am not around in the future, you must not act hastily. If you can't understand the enemy's movements, you should use the same to respond to all changes. You must not Bewildered by it, and lost vigilance, Guangzong's soldiers have enough food and are not afraid of consumption."

Hearing Zhang Jiao's words that there are enough soldiers and food, Zhang Liang's heart couldn't help but tremble. He knew what the elder brother was talking about.

"I see, brother."

"Follow me to inspect the battalions. I will share the news of the general's retreat with everyone." Zhang Jiao said as he walked down the city, followed closely by Zhang Liang.

……

As soon as it was dawn, Zhao Yun woke up the sleeping Liu Qing.

"My lord, Quang Binh urgent report!"

Liu Qing specifically explained that no matter how late the night was or how early the morning was, he must be woken up as soon as he received the urgent report.

When Liu Qing opened his eyes, he saw only dim light outside the window, and saw Zhao Yun standing beside him.

These few days Liu Qing was stationed in Yi County, and it was rare for him to be free, but he was always feeling uneasy, feeling that something bad was about to happen.

This anxiety may be the feeling of suffocation before the storm.

Zhao Yun held up the oil lamp, Liu Qing saw the newspaper and scanned it.

"Dong Zhuo is here!" Liu Qing said.

"Who is Dong Zhuo?" Zhao Yun obviously had never heard of this name.

"Inspector of Bingzhou, governor of Hedong, or, in other words, a social expert?"

"Is he the person who came to replace General Lu Zhonglang?" With this official title, Zhao Yun roughly guessed his identity, "Is there anything special about this person?"

"Zilong wants to hear, but I can talk about it. It is said that Dong Zhuo loved to be a hero since he was a child, and he made friends with heroes, and even got acquainted with the leaders of the Qiang tribe. He is also very powerful and good at riding and shooting. I also heard that this life He has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, loves soldiers like children, eats and lives with soldiers, but there are rewards, all of which are shared."

Liu Qing told the whole story about the first half of Dong Zhuo's life in his impression. As for the second half of his life, it hasn't happened yet.

You can't create rumors about things that didn't happen.

"From this point of view, this Dong Zhuo should also be a hero."

Who said it wasn't, it's a pity that history didn't follow the right path, perhaps, history didn't leave him the right path, and forced him to become a demon king.

"Let's go, look at the map!" Liu Qing casually put on a robe and walked towards the side hall.

"My lord, it's time to report. The food transport team should be halfway through."

As soon as Zhao Yun reminded, Liu Qing seemed to realize where this anxiety came from. It was that he suddenly had a lot of wealth and food, and these wealth and food had not been digested by himself. They were facing difficulties in Yi County and on the way. risk.

If the new official of Yi County takes office, he will definitely take it as the imperial court's property, and it's not easy for Liu Qing to monopolize it.

Now that Dong Zhuo is here, he knows that Dong Zhuo is going to attack Quyang, and Guangzong will lose control at that time. Zhang Jiao is likely to send troops to the north to help, and the extension of the battle line to the north will inevitably cut off his grain transportation channel.

Liu Qing is not afraid of fighting, but the food transport team is very fragile and cannot be destroyed by the enemy.

"Zilong, Dong Zhuo came here by order. He wants to fight the Yellow Turban. Xia Quyang, which has fewer troops, should be his primary goal. Therefore, he will definitely abandon Guangzong's defense line. Once the officers and troops leave, Zhang Jiao will definitely expand outward. , touching our grain road." Liu Qing gestured at the location on the map, "Jing County and Nangong County are on the line connecting Guangzong and Xia Quyang. Take Nangong to strengthen Guangzong's line of defense."

"My lord, what should we do?"

"You and I are too far away from Guangzong, and we can't reach it, but..." Liu Qing tapped on the map with his fingertips, "I have Fengxiao, Fengxiao will not be as he wished."

Liu Qing has reported the importance of this batch of grain and grass back to Guangping through the letter. With Guo Jia around, Dong Zhuo's retreat is such an important matter. Naturally, he can't escape his eyes. He should have thought of the relationship between Jing County and Nangong County. importance.

"Zilong, there is no threat to Yi County for the time being, and all the military rations at the ferry have been shipped back. You lead four hundred elite cavalry, bring enough food and grass, and set off immediately, stationed between Nangong County and Jing County. Report the location to Feng Xiao."

"My lord, then you."

"I still have nearly a hundred people, plus fifty imperial guards. I will guard the city tightly. Nothing will go wrong. It's just dawn. You must call your troops and horses and set off immediately. Remember, send more sentries to investigate the situation. If you have any news, please report to Feng. filial piety!"

"Here!"

After Zhao Yun took the order, he trotted out, while Liu Qing sat down and continued to look at the marks on the map, "Everything I can think of, everything I can do, seems to have been done, Fengxiao, Gong and Uncle, it's up to you That's it!"

At the same time, five hundred miles away, outside Guangping County.

A group of men and horses assembled in the east of the city early, most of the front row were armed with long soldiers, with different guns and halberds, and their backs were carrying bows and bags full of arrows, and some of them had weapons of different lengths and protective gear. The queue is also crooked.

At the gate of the city, Guo Jia looked at Ju Shou who was riding a horse with a sword, and he felt a surge of pride in his heart. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "The county magistrate is so heroic. If you pass by the county's key points, please!"

Jushou led the army for the first time, and he was a bit heroic in his heart, "Guangping's elite will be the best, and Fengxiao should do it for himself."

"Don't worry, the county magistrate, with the huge deer here, Guangping can't get into Zhang Jiao's eyes!" Guo Jia put down his hands, and said to Gan Lai who was beside him, "Gan Lai, the Guangping grain truck has not much to talk about, I'll give it to you A thousand people, some cattle and horses, must transport the necessary food and grass to Jing County as soon as possible, and then assist Ju County Magistrate, you know the Yellow Turban, so you can speak more."

"I already know." Gan Lai said.

On the second day after Dong Zhuo withdrew, Jushou led [-] infantry, [-] archers, and [-] improvised auxiliary soldiers, totaling [-], and marched to Jing County.
