Chapter 64: Waiting for the Rabbit (Part II)
The Yellow Turban Army in the world is a family, this sentence is not casually said. Tao Sheng didn't know which side the people belonged to, but seeing that they were a little down, he wanted to take them to his city, give them a mouthful www.biquge.info of hot soup to drink, and give them a mouthful of food, which was a kind of sympathy and a rule.
Almost every commander of the Yellow Turban Army will do this after encountering scattered Yellow Turban soldiers and horses.
At that moment, after listening to Tao Sheng's order, some soldiers walked up quickly, ready to lower the drawbridge and open the city gate. However, one of the soldiers stopped the soldier who carried out the order: "Wait a minute......
"Chu Yan, what are you doing?" Looking at the man's actions, Tao Sheng was a little puzzled.
"Qu Shuai...... If it is dark today, we do not know who we are. Aren't you worried about the strangeness of this passer-by? Chu Yan asked puzzled.
"Questions? What could be the problem? Tao Sheng was puzzled by this.
"Aren't you worried about the officers and soldiers pretending to be our men and horses to seize the city?" Chu Yan voiced her worries.
"Hold the city? We have never been the only city where we hold the official army, but we have never heard of the official army holding our city. What are we? We are rebels in the eyes of the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers have such a high-minded character, they will pretend to be us? That's too low-priced. Tao Sheng said and waved his hand disdainfully.
"But you're not afraid ......," Chu Yan asked.
"What if...... It's possible if I die tomorrow...... Hey, if there are so many things in the world, we can't do anything! Tao Sheng sneered: "Kaecheng, Kaecheng!" ”
When the ......soldier heard Tao Sheng's order again, he hurriedly went down, leaving Chu Yan, who had a bad complexion, aside.
Seeing that Tao Sheng was so stubborn, Chu Yan stomped his feet in annoyance: "Such an imprudent person will die sooner or later, so I'd better hurry up and prepare for the back." Chu Yan said and turned around and left.
Tao Sheng looked at his back, a trace of gloom flashed on his face, but he didn't say anything after all.
Without Chu Yan's stop, the city gate was quickly opened, and the drawbridge was lowered. Tao Sheng's eyes flashed with a trace of greed, but he strode down the city and came to the city gate. He was going to wait here for the arrival of those people, give them some warmth, and then try to annex them.
Although he didn't know where these people came from or what their level was, he saw that there were hundreds of them, and they all seemed to be quite strong, so he thought that they should be very capable. In that case, why not co-opt them?
Tao Sheng was not afraid that they would not agree, because this was Xiaquyang, his own city.
With such confidence, Tao Sheng stood at the edge of the city gate. Soon he saw two very strong horsemen slowly approaching him on two yellow horses. They were dressed in half-length iron armor, and were followed by a group of soldiers who appeared to be somewhat powerful.
"Below is Xiaquyang, who stayed behind to guard Tao Sheng, I don't know what Your Excellency is." Tao Sheng took a few steps forward and reported his name.
"Below is Zhang Sheng's cavalry guard Zhang He, and that is our commander Deng Yang...... We are a team that was ordered to go to Zhao State and Changshan to eat, but we don't want to encounter a surprise attack by the official army, and the 20,000 troops are ......" Pei Yuanshao pointed to himself and Liao Hua to make an introduction to Tao Sheng, and explained his origin and identity at the same time.
Although he himself guessed that not many people in the Yellow Turbans cared about this, he did it just in case.
Of course, even just in case, this statement is true. Zhang Sheng's subordinates really had people named Zhang He and Deng Yang, and they did participate in the eating action of the Western Expedition. Both of them fell under Liu Beijun's knife.
Pei Yuanshao and Liao Hua recognized the corpses of these two people and gathered them together. Since these two people were about the same age and size as Pei Yuanshao and Liao Hua, when Li Qin proposed the plan to seize the city, Pei Yuanshao and Liao Hua, who were in charge of this matter, planned to dress up as them.
I have to say that this time the dress up was very successful.
Tao Sheng didn't suspect that they were fake at all, and they were serving the official army.
"I didn't expect the two of them to be under the command of Zhang Sheng as much as possible...... It's disrespectful. Come, I have ordered a banquet to be prepared in the city. Let's all come along. When you get here, you're home. Tao Sheng smiled warmly, not revealing his thoughts at all. As he spoke, he moved forward, and he wanted to ask Pei Yuanshao and Liao Hua to dismount and get closer to him.
Seeing Tao Sheng approaching him like this, Pei Yuanshao smiled, and Liao Hua also smiled. The two of them jumped off their horses at the same time and walked slowly towards Tao Sheng.
"It's really polite to stay behind." Pei Yuanshao said with a smile.
"Where is ......" Tao Sheng was humble, but the two got closer.
Suddenly, Pei Yuanshao stopped and stared at Tao Sheng's back with a frightened face, as if something terrible was there. Tao Sheng was taken aback by Pei Yuanshao's discoloration. He thought something bad was happening, so he quickly turned his head away.
But he didn't want to turn his head at the moment when Liao Hua, who was half a position behind Pei Yuanshao, stepped forward quickly, the dagger in his hand was raised quickly, and it wiped Tao Sheng's throat lightly and quickly.
Tao Sheng fell to the ground, the sharp pain distorting his face, and the leaky throat left him speechless. He covered his wound with his hand while pointing at Liao Hua, who suddenly attacked him, his eyes flashing with puzzlement and anger. He wanted to question and scold, but in the end he could only widen his eyes and struggle helplessly.
After a few breaths, Tao Sheng died, and he was completely dead.
But before he could take a breath, a pair of big feet with firm steps had already stepped past him. Li Qin, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Liao Hua, and Pei Yuanshao led five hundred officers and troops disguised as the Yellow Turban Army to launch a surprise attack on Quyang.
Although the Yellow Turban Army had more than 3,000 defenders in Xiaquyang, in the case of the sudden attack and Tao Sheng's death, they could only fight separately without unified command, and fell into an extremely passive situation, and then were taken down one by one under the subsequent influx of Liu Bei's army.
In the meantime, some people wanted to escape from the city, but when Liu Beijun first controlled the four city gates and sent Zhang Chao to search for Siye with cavalry, there were indeed very few people who could escape in the end.
After that, the night passed. The banner of the Yellow Turban Army is still fluttering at the head of the city in Xiaquyang, and the guards at the head of the city are still dressed as soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, but inside it has long been changed to Liu Bei's territory.
Zhang Chao still did not enter the city, he was ordered by Liu Bei to be outside the city to intercept all the fish that tried to escape to the north.
"Don't let the news of the fall of Xia Quyang spread to the north." This is the order that Li Qin asked Liu Bei to give.
In this way, the news of the fall of Xia Quyang has been kept secret to some people.
Liu Beijun sat in Xiaquyang City with such a fierce eye, waiting for Bai Huan, who didn't know the situation in Xiaquyang, to come to the door.
Hold on to the rabbit. The plant is already ready, and now it is the silly rabbit that is waiting.
