Three Kingdoms King of the North

"Will it be our reinforcements?" Han Zhan asked with luck.

Regarding Han Zhan's question, Dian Wei thought for a moment, nodded his head and said, "As far as the envoy is concerned, the Yellow Turban Bandit has no organized cavalry. I think it should be our reinforcements."

In less than a stick of incense, people standing on the city wall can see the cavalry appearing in the distance.Dian Wei's eyes were sharp, and he could see clearly that the cavalrymen were almost all white horses. He couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "My God, it's Yicong on a white horse who came!"

Baima Yicong? !The hearts of those who heard Dianwei's shout suddenly quickened. You must know that Baima Yicong is Gongsun Zan's elite army, so why did they appear here?A thought popped up in almost everyone's minds at the same time: Whether or not the Yellow Turbans could stop their attack is a question, let alone the world-famous Baima Yicong.It's over, I will definitely lose my life here today.

But what happened next surprised everyone.The cavalry rushed straight into the formation of the Yellow Turban Army, and the huge inertia of the horse's impact knocked the Yellow Turban Army soldiers standing in front of the horse into the air.A young general dressed in silver helmet and armor, with a snow-white war horse under his crotch, rushed to the front of the whole cavalry. The steel gun in his hand was like a dragon out of the water, up and down, left and right, forward and backward. Afterwards, the yellow scarf soldier's head rolled and his flesh and blood flew all over the place.

After Han Zhan saw clearly the young general who was invincible in the Yellow Turban Army, he couldn't help showing a relaxed smile on his face.After Dian Wei saw the superb martial arts of this young general, he couldn't help applauding repeatedly.He walked to Han Zhan's side and asked in a low voice: "Master, it seems that this cavalry is here to help us. Do you know the young general in the lead?"

Han Zhan looked at Dian Wei and said with a smile on his face: "Dian Wei, you may not know him yet. Let me introduce you, that is the county captain, Changshan Zhao Zilong, who was sent by the envoy to Zhending to recruit troops!"

"It turns out that's the county captain Zhao, and he really has good martial arts." After feeling a lot of emotion, Dian Wei asked Han Zhan for instructions: "My lord, the yellow scarf bandits have already shown their defeat, otherwise they will open the door and attack, and help the county captain Zhao." A helping hand."

When Han Zhan saw clearly that the person who came to help was Zhao Yun, his hanging heart finally returned to his stomach.Regarding Dian Wei's situation, he immediately expressed his permission without hesitation: "Hurry up, gather the troops immediately, and follow the envoy out of the city to meet the enemy!"

Chapter 0060 New Plan

As soon as the city gate opened, Han Zhan rode his horse out of the city first, pointed at the chaotic Yellow Turban army in the distance with his whip, and said loudly: "Brothers, the Yellow Turban bandits are ahead, and today we are going to avenge those dead people." The day of the day. You should go forward bravely, and don't fall behind. Kill!"

As soon as Han Zhan's shout fell, Dian Wei roared, waved his halberds, and rushed out on his horse, followed by more than ten cavalrymen, followed by more than 200 infantrymen, and rich merchants such as Hu Cha A private soldier of a big family.

Although there are more Yellow Turban soldiers outside the city than officers and soldiers, they have no fighting spirit at the moment, and it is only a matter of time before they are eliminated. Therefore, Han Zhan did not follow to charge, but under the protection of Rob, he shot straight into the distance Zhao Yun left.

The attack of the officers and soldiers in the city made the Yellow Turban Army, which was already extremely chaotic, even more chaotic. Their last bit of courage had disappeared, and they could only scurry around like headless flies. where to run.For a time, the battlefield was full of broken soldiers and soldiers chasing and killing them.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the clever Yellow Turban Army quickly threw away the weapons in their hands and knelt down to beg for mercy.Whether it was Zhao Yun's cavalry or Dian Wei's infantry, they ignored the Yellow Turbans who kneeled and surrendered. They only chased and killed those Yellow Turbans who were still fighting or running around.Seeing that kneeling down and begging for mercy can save lives, more and more Yellow Turban soldiers immediately threw away their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy from the officers and soldiers.

When Zhao Yun saw Han Zhan coming with Rob on horseback, he quickly urged the horse to meet him. When the distance was only seven or eight steps away, the two of them restrained the horse by coincidence.Zhao Yun got off his horse first, thrust the steel gun in his hand into the ground, and walked quickly towards Han Zhan.

Han Zhan didn't sit on the horse and wait for Zhao Yun to come to salute him, but got off the horse, walked over and grabbed Zhao Yun's arm, stopped him from saluting, and said excitedly: "Zilong, I hope you come back. If you hadn't arrived in time, Sheguo County would be in danger today!"

"Emissary," although Zhao Yun was equally agitated, he saluted respectfully and replied, "Fortunately, Yun did not disgrace his order, and recruited six hundred cavalry from Zhending to serve the envoy."

"Zilong, don't call me envoy again." Han Zhan felt that there was a good opportunity in front of him, and he must seize it in time, so he deliberately put on a straight face, pretending to be unhappy and said, "You and I are about the same age, and have ambitions. Congenial, Zhanyu and Zilong will become life and death brothers, what do you think?"

Regarding Han Zhan's wishful thinking, Zhao Yun said with some embarrassment, "Master, is this inappropriate?"

"There's nothing wrong with it," Han Zhan said carelessly, "After the matter of the Yellow Turban Bandit is dealt with, you and I will choose a good day to formally worship."

Seeing Han Zhan's kindness, Zhao Yun could no longer evade it, and could only bow his hands and salute: "Since the envoy said so, then Yun would be more respectful than obedient."

Han Zhan ordered someone to find Huahu, and asked him to assist Dianwei to clean up the battlefield, collect the prisoners, and treat the wounded, then took Zhao Yun back to the county government office, and met Xun Yu who had just returned.

Han Zhan thought of those cavalrymen who were uniformly dressed and used the standard weapons of the Han army, and thought that with the little money he gave Zhao Yun, it would be good to be able to recruit a few hundred people. How could he equip them with such good horses and standard weapons for officers and soldiers? He armor, couldn't help asking Zhao Yun curiously: "Zilong, why are the volunteers you recruited this time wearing official military uniforms?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know that when Yun returned to the real world to recruit volunteer soldiers, he got the help of noble people." Zhao Yun explained to Han Zhan: "Originally, with the help of his brother, Yun only recruited [-] infantry, but really Hu Zhi, the magistrate of Ding County, heard about Yun’s recruitment of soldiers and visited his home in person. He said that the world is in great chaos today, and the people are in danger. He decided to follow the benevolent government, so he helped Yun vigorously recruit new soldiers and recruited a total of One thousand infantry and six hundred cavalry. In addition, Zhendingling also provided our army with horses, a large amount of weapons, money and food."

Zhao Yun's words made Han Zhan jump up from his seat, "What, besides the cavalry outside the city, there are another thousand infantry?" He asked nervously, "Where are they now?"

"The pawns are led by my righteous brother Xia Houlan and righteous sister Xia Houyun, and they are still a hundred miles away." Zhao Yun quickly replied, "It will take two days at the earliest before we can reach Sheguo County."

"My lord, County Captain Zhao has recruited [-] recruits for us, which has improved our strength." Xun Yu asked without losing the opportunity, "I wonder what your next plan is?"

If Zhao Yun hadn't returned to Sheguo County, and didn't tell Han Zhan that the county magistrate Hu Zhi, who was far away in Changshan Zhending, supported him and helped recruit [-] recruits, it is estimated that Han Zhan would continue to stay in Sheguo The county slowly cultivated its own power.Han Zhan walked back and forth behind the table with his hands behind his back, and began to plan his future development plan in his heart.

He knew very well in his heart that before he left Jizhou, he was a rootless duckweed. No matter how good his relationship with those great people in the Three Kingdoms era was, no one else would defect to him.After becoming the magistrate of Sheguo County, although he has his own territory, his strength is too weak. If he wants to find talents like Zhao Yun or Xun Yu again, unless there is a miracle.Now that I have just defeated the invading Yellow Turban Army, and I have more than 1000 more horsemen, I finally have a foothold. The next thing I need to do is to consolidate the foundation, quietly develop my own power, and strive to win in the upcoming Three Kingdoms. There is a place to hide in troubled times.

Thinking of this, he stopped, looked at Xun Yu and said, "Xunxian County Chancellor, there are currently many bandits and yellow scarf thieves around the county. If we don't get rid of them as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles."

"What the Shijun said is very true." Xun Yu agreed with Han Zhan's statement: "I don't know what your plan is?"

"I plan to let Zilong lead his troops to eliminate bandits and small groups of Yellow Turban thieves. We will use the method of suppressing and pacifying each other. Those who can be recruited will be recruited, and those who cannot be recruited will be completely wiped out, so as to avoid future troubles." Han Zhan turned his face and stared at them. Looking at Zhao Yun, he said, "You must have worked hard on the long journey. Why don't you rest for two days before leading the army to suppress the bandits?"

Zhao Yun did not say any polite words hypocritically, but gave a deep salute and said respectfully: "I will obey the order of the envoy."

After counting the prisoners of war, Huahu returned to the county government office and reported to Han Zhan and Xun Yu: "I will report to the envoy and the county magistrate that we killed 610 yellow scarf thieves and captured 520 four of them alive. More than [-]% of them. I asked the envoy for instructions, how to deal with these yellow turban thieves?"

After Han Zhan finished listening, he cast his eyes on Xun Yu, and said: "Xun County Prime Minister, among these yellow scarf thieves, there are many good people. It would be inappropriate to kill them all. Why don't you give them all to you and let them go to open up wasteland and cultivate fields?" how?"

"Your Majesty's act is very kind!" When Xun Yu heard that more than 2000 yellow scarf prisoners had been captured, he thought that Han Zhan would order them all to be executed. Unexpectedly, he gave himself all the captives. Use everything to the best of your ability.”

"By the way, Mr. Hua." Han Zhan couldn't help being angry when he thought of the tragic situation he saw in the village yesterday. He asked Huahu again: "Have you ever caught the handsome Qu and the leader of the Yellow Turban Bandit?"

Hua Hu shook his head and said: "According to the confession of the captured Yellow Turban Bandit, Qu Shuai of the Yellow Turban Bandit saw that Captain Zhao came with the cavalry, and felt that something was wrong, so he quietly fled with four or five leaders. trace."

Hearing that the culprit who massacred the villagers had been missed, Han Zhan couldn't help itching his teeth, and he told Hua Hu: "Master Hua, immediately post a list in the city, and offer a reward for the capture of the escaped yellow scarf thief Qu Shuai. I must see you!" If you die, you have to see the corpse, 50 gold for the living, and 10 gold for the dead."

"Here!" Hua Hu quickly agreed: "This subordinate will go to the city to post a notice to catch the escaped yellow scarf thief."

Chapter 0061

Zhao Yun wanted to go back to the barracks to settle the cavalry who had just arrived in Sheguo County, and Xun Yu was also anxious to check on the captured ordinary Yellow Turban soldiers, so Han Zhan got up and sent the two of them out of the county government office.

As soon as he approached the gate of the county government office, Xun Yu, who was walking in front, suddenly exclaimed, quickened his pace and rushed out of the gate.Han Zhan and Zhao Yun, who were walking behind him, thought that something had happened, so they hurriedly followed.

When he walked out of the gate, Han Zhan saw Xun Yu standing in front of the horse-hitting post, carefully sizing up a horse that was white all over and without any variegation.Han Zhan recognized Zhao Yun's Zhaoye Jade Lion, and asked with a smile, "Uncle, what do you think of this horse?"

"Zhan'er, hurry up and take a look." Xun Yu waved at Han Zhan, and said to him, "This horse's ears are like bamboo sticks, its eyes are like hanging bells, its snow is white, and there is not a single hair on its body. From head to tail , one foot long, hooves to the ridge, and eight feet high. It is a steed that can travel thousands of miles a day, and it is by no means inferior to Lu Bu's red rabbit."

Seeing that Xun Yu was so obsessed with this horse, Zhao Yun walked over and said with a smile, "I never thought that Xun Xiancheng knew how to look after horses."

"I understand, I understand!" After Xun Yu said this, he suddenly realized that this horse might be Zhao Yun's mount, and asked curiously, "Dare to ask the county captain, is this horse your mount?"

"Xun County Prime Minister is right, it is Yun's mount." Zhao Yun explained: "This is an old friend of my brother's. It was sold from outside the Great Wall a few months ago. It is said that it was produced in the Western Regions and can travel thousands of miles a day. "

"Brother Ling's words are true," Xun Yu waited for Zhao Yun to finish, then nodded his head and said: "This horse is the best of the best, but it has a violent temper, which is not something ordinary people can control. Zhao Xianwei tamed this horse, It must have taken a lot of trouble, right?"

"The Prime Minister of Xun County doesn't know something. Since my brother got this horse, he has carefully fed it with high-quality fodder every day, but for some reason, he can't afford to lose weight and looks very thin." When talking about the Zhaoye Jade Lion in front of him Zhao Yun and Xun Yu seem to have a lot in common: "When Yun followed his brother to the stables to select a good horse, he found this horse by accident. When the horse saw Yun, it immediately flapped its mane and opened its eyes. Wide open, in the shape of a scorpion, as if seeing the old master. Seeing the fate of this horse, Yun took it back to the post station, and after only feeding it for half a month, it became like this."

After hearing this, Xun Yu smiled slightly, twirling his beard with one hand, and stroking the short satin-like hair of the Zhaoye Jade Lion with the other, and asked tentatively, "Captain Zhao, may I let the officer try riding?"

Zhao Yun nodded, walked to the side of the Zhaoye Jade Lion, leaned close to its ear and whispered a few words, bent down and untied the reins tied to the horse post, and handed it to Xun Yu: "Xun Yu County magistrate, please!"

Xun Yu got on his horse with the help of the horse-mounting stone next to it, shook the reins lightly, and the Zhaoyeyu lion started to run slowly along the spacious street in front of the county government office.Seeing Xun Yu sitting steadily on the horse, Zhao Yun couldn't help saying with emotion: "I didn't expect that Xun Xiancheng's riding skills are so good."

Zhao Yun said casually, but Han Zhan began to think about a very important thing: Stirrups and horseshoes were needed in the Three Kingdoms era. In order to strengthen his own cavalry strength, is it necessary to make these two things available in advance?

Xun Yu ran back and forth on the street for a few times, then stopped at the gate of the county government office, got off his horse, and patted the horse's back several times with his hands, saying, "Good horse, County Captain Zhao, What a fine horse it is!"

Seeing that Xun Yu loved the Zhaoye jade lion so much, Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Since Xun Xiancheng likes this horse so much, then Yun is willing to give this horse to the county magistrate."

Hearing that Zhao Yun was willing to transfer this horse to Xun Yu, Han Zhan couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, thinking that the reason why Zhao Yun was able to kill seven in and seven out in Changbanpo, and even fell into a trap, was able to leap out. Gao Chao is relying on this Zhaoye Jade Lion.If you give this horse to Xun Yu and only ride on an ordinary war horse, it is unknown whether you will be able to save your own life, not to mention the fame that will be extolled throughout the ages.

Zhao Yun's generosity not only surprised Han Zheng, but also Xun Yu.He didn't expect such a precious BMW, Zhao Yun gave it away as soon as he said it would.He looked at Zhao Yun, and then at the Zhaoye jade lion, as if he was a little hesitant.But after an inspiring ideological struggle, Xun Yu still shook his head and said firmly: "Thank you for the kindness of Lieutenant Zhao County, but Yu dare not accept it. If a general has such a horse, he will be like a tiger with wings added when he charges into battle. Yu is only one person, unable to carry a knife and gun, unable to go to the battlefield, if the county captain gave me this horse, it would be a waste of money, not right, not right!"

Seeing that Xun Yu rejected Zhao Yun's request, Han Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was afraid that Zhao Yun would propose a horse again, so he quickly said, "County Zhao, aren't you going to the military camp with my uncle? It's early, you should leave now."
