Chapter 151 Ambush

In February of the first year of Zhongping, Tang Zhou, a disciple of the Taiping Sect, reported on Ma Yuanyi, the nephew of the capital of the Taiping Sect.

Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Taiping sect, was caught off guard and almost went to prison. Fortunately, his subordinates fought to the death and made a bloody way. Then he hastily revolted with Julu, known as the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhang Jiao was well-known among the people, and there were hundreds of thousands of Taiping followers. Suddenly, 28 counties in seven prefectures responded one after another, attacking counties and counties, and the whole world was shaken.

In a month's time, all the prefects and governors everywhere were caught off guard, or retreated steadily or stalemate. Only one of them won the victory. Not only was it not caught off guard by the sudden Yellow Turban Army, but it panicked the Yellow Turban Army.

That's right, this place is Qi County.

It can be said that Chu Fei and Liu Cheng talked about everything, and Liu Cheng had great trust in Chu Fei, so Liu Cheng had already made preparations. All the people were picked out.

Coupled with the efforts of Chu Fei, all the refugees of the surrounding generation were gathered in one place, and those who were willing to contribute also had their own family businesses, and they did not want to stand up and resist at all.Not to mention lazy people, they simply don't have the guts to rebel.

But when the Yellow Turban Army came to kill him, Liu Cheng stood up immediately, and in the name of Chu Shanren's sworn brothers, recruited refugees to join the army, becoming a force not to be underestimated.

Of course, Liu Cheng didn't have this brain, even if he had, he wouldn't bother to think about it. , all these arrangements were told by Chu Fei before he left.

But even so, the Yellow Turban Army was still not defeated.

After all, the Yellow Turban Army was powerful. Although Liu Cheng was prepared, Gong Jing was defenseless. For a while, the two armies fell into a stalemate. The Yellow Turban Army could not attack for a long time, and Gong Jing was unable to defeat it.

"Report! There has been a change in the bandits, and 3000 troops have been dispatched to retreat to the north."

Gong Jing was in a dilemma, considering whether to send people to break out and borrow troops from other states and counties for reinforcements.

When he heard such news, he frowned, then stood up immediately and said, "Can you see clearly? Who is leading the army? What is his intention?"

"This subordinate doesn't know."

Gong Jing sighed when he heard this, waved his hand feebly and said, "Let's explore again."

"Here."

Gong Jing is not a talented person in the military field, otherwise he would not have recruited Chu Fei, a man in white.

He saw that the bandit soldiers were powerful, but he just shrank back and dared not go out of the city. He missed many great opportunities to defeat the Yellow Turban Army in vain.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army split up, either wanting to attack other places, or hiding and wanting to sneak attack.

Of course, with such an aboveboard departure, the sneak attack can basically be ignored.

Just after the spies left, Captain Xu De came to the door.

Seeing Gong Jing, he hurriedly saluted and said anxiously, "My lord, at this time the bandits are splitting up and leaving, and their defense must be lax. It is better to take the opportunity to sneak attack and win in one battle."

Hearing this, Gong Jing quickly shook his head and said, "Lieutenant Xu, don't be fooled by the bandit soldiers. The best policy is to defend the city if the enemy is too few. There is enough food and grass in the city, but the bandit soldiers are like weeds without roots. If you waste food and grass and treat the bandit soldiers without food Then send troops to collect it."

Xu De became anxious when he heard Gong Jing's words. He was depressed for a long time after being stepped on top of his head by Chu Fei. He finally had the opportunity to make meritorious service, but he didn't expect that Gong Jing was such a timid person, how could he not be in a hurry.

"My lord, although the bandits are large, they are like a plate of scattered sand, vulnerable to a single blow. When the bandits leave, they must go to other places to plunder supplies of food and grass. Although there is not as much food and grass as in the city, the people have suffered. If five people, we I will definitely be reprimanded by the court, please make a clear decision, my lord!"

Gong Jing frowned upon hearing this.Although he was upset that Xu De forced him to send troops to fight, Xu De was not unreasonable.

If all the people in Qingzhou were killed, then he would become a poor commander, and it would be strange if the court didn't send someone to question him.

"Then what should we do according to Captain Xu's wishes?"

Xu De was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then said, "Our army has never taken the initiative to go out to fight in the city for a month. Sufficient, we don't have to insist on fighting with the bandits, we just need to burn the food and grass. The bandits will be in chaos if they don't have food and grass, and when the time comes, if the army goes out all the way to persuade them to surrender, then a battle will be settled."

As soon as these words came out, Gong Jing's mouth immediately opened wide, big enough to fit into a fist.

"What! Persuade surrender!"

He widened his eyes, looked at Xu De in disbelief and said, "Do you know that these people are bandit soldiers? Are they anti-thieves? Anti-thieves! Is there any reason in the world to persuade anti-thieves to surrender? If the words reach your majesty's ears , you and I are afraid that our lives are in danger, don’t mention this matter again!”

Xu De tried to persuade him again, but it aroused Gong Jing's fury, and he was scolded and invited out.

In desperation, Xu De could only return to the city with a depressed mood, wanting to see something.

At this moment, people and horses from outside the city rushed towards the city gate. When they walked in, they saw that they were the scouts sent out.

"Quick! Open the city gate and let him enter the city!"

Xu De gave the order without hesitation, and hurried down the wall to meet him.

"Is there any news?"

Before the scout could speak, Xu De asked first.

The scout didn't hesitate when he heard this, and immediately said, "The thieves are camping eighty miles away from the city. I don't know what they mean."

"Huh?" Xu De frowned, also confused.

"What kind of tricks are the yellow turban thieves going to play? Set up camp eighty miles away? Could it be that they got some news? North and north!"

Suddenly, Xu De's heart skipped a beat, and he seemed to realize something, and then he said to the scout, "Go and check quickly to see if there is any movement in Kunshan County."

The scout gave Xu De a blank look, then stood there stupidly.

Seeing this, Xu De frowned and scolded, "Are you deaf? Hurry up!"

"Here!"

The scout turned away with confusion, bypassing the Yellow Turban Army and heading towards Kunshan County from the trail.

Xu De guessed something, and secretly made a decision in his heart. Even if Gong Jing disagreed with sending troops, he would also take a gamble.

If he guessed correctly but did not send troops, then he would never raise his head again in this life.

"Command, let the brothers start sleeping now." He whispered to a confidant.

The confidant left with orders, and began to rest with the troops of the headquarters.

At night, Xu De quietly led his troops out of the city and headed towards the Yellow Turban camp.

The Yellow Turban camp was extremely quiet, except for a few patrolling soldiers, there was no one else.

Seeing this scene, Xu De was overjoyed, and immediately led people to rush to kill him.

"Enemy attack! Run!"

Seeing the reaction of the bandit soldiers, Xu De curled his lips in disdain. Bandit soldiers are bandit soldiers, and the first thing they did when they were attacked was not to stop the troops from defending, since the first thought was to run away.

After a commotion, Xu De was dumbfounded.

Because the camps here are basically empty, and all the people do not add up to more than 500 people.

"Withdraw! There is an ambush!"

 Chinese New Year, I wish you all a happy new year!In the new year, everything goes smoothly and all wishes come true!
