Chapter 21: Yellow Turban Infighting
"How is this possible, why did the officers and soldiers know in advance that we were going to attack the north gate!"
"And these cavalry, aren't they those tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Cao?"
Liu Zheng, who was on the city tower, was stunned after seeing these situations outside the city.
There were many things he couldn't explain, but he quickly realized that something must be wrong.
First of all, the news of their attack on Beicheng, it is impossible for the officers and soldiers to know, in order to besiege the city, the officers and soldiers were divided into four parts, even if the soldiers and horses of the four parts were not evenly distributed, there would definitely not be much difference.
But at present, these officers and soldiers have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses at the north gate, which means that the other party knows that Bocai may attack out of the city at the north gate.
Knowing that Bocai was attacking at the North City Gate, it may be said that it was luck and guessed Bocai's idea.
But in advance in the camp at the north city gate, a trap was laid, waiting for Bocai's men and horses to jump in, this does not make sense, this is only one possibility.
The officers and soldiers knew about the plans of the Yellow Turban Army before they could.
Thinking of it, Liu Zheng's face became extremely ugly.
"Someone leaked the news!"
After the other party learned about the actions of the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Zheng did not hesitate at all, and immediately walked towards Bo Cai's side.
"Bo Cai Qu is handsome! Big things are wrong! ”
Liu Zheng's face was ugly, and he ran towards Bocai, looking hurried, which attracted Bocai's attention.
"Liu Zheng, what's going on again?"
"Qu Shuai, I suspect someone has revealed our plans!"
As soon as Liu Zheng's words spoke, he immediately made Bo Cai's originally ugly face sink sharply at this time, becoming even more ugly, in fact, Bo Cai is stupid, it has come to this point, how can he not know, his plan, maybe the officials and soldiers already know.
But he didn't want to admit it, but now that Liu Zheng shouted it out, he was a little more sure in his heart.
"Why do you say that?"
Bo Cai hurriedly asked Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng quickly told Bo Cai about his speculation.
"Do you know who leaked the news?"
Bo Cai then asked, and Liu Zheng quickly analyzed it in his mind.
Yesterday, there were not many people discussing in the big tent, except for a few of Bocai's own subordinates, there were only a few other Qu Shuai.
And Bocai's own people should be unlikely to be close to the official army, and if Bocai is excluded, there will only be the other three commanders.
These people are all suspicious.
First of all, it's Liu Pi, Liu Zheng has little contact with him, but he suddenly has a Xu You under his command, Xu Yu is a ghost, and he is an old acquaintance with Cao Cao, it is difficult to say that he is not a spy of the official army.
The second is He Yi, this guy and Bo Cai had a holiday, and he was very unhappy with Bo Cai, when he was in the big tent before, although Liu Zheng didn't see any clues, He Yi gave Liu Zheng the feeling that he was a guy who was very urban.
Moreover, when he was leaving, he and Huang Shao were plotting something, and this time the person he was going to deal with should be Cao Jun in the west of the city.
But Cao Jun's tiger and leopard ride appeared in the north of the city, which had to make Liu Zheng doubt the possibility of that guy.
And once He Yi betrayed Bo Cai, then Huang Shao, who was with He Yi, was probably also together.
Thinking of this, Liu Zheng became even more worried.
"Qu Shuai, I can't say who leaked the news, but I think it should be these two people, Liu Bi and He Yi!"
In Liu Zheng's speculation, Liu Bi and He Yi are the most likely.
"Liu Bi and He Yi!"
Bo Cai's eyes narrowed, but he immediately refuted Liu Zheng.
"No, it's impossible, they won't betray General Tiangong, we swore together that we would fight for Huang Tian and overthrow the imperial court!"
Although Liu Zheng had helped Bo Cai guess who had leaked the secret, Bo Cai didn't seem to want to believe it.
"Qu Shuai, in case they really betray me......"
"Okay, no need to say more, if you have this time, you better hurry up and get out of the city and block those officials and soldiers, lest they rush to the city!"
Liu Zheng wanted to say something to Bo Cai, but Bo Cai immediately interrupted Liu Zheng's words.
asked Liu Zheng to give him advice, and forcibly held it back from his mouth.
Liu Zheng glanced at Bo Cai, in Liu Zheng's eyes, Bo Cai was a good person, but he didn't listen to persuasion, and Liu Zheng really had no choice.
Liu Zheng didn't say much, turned his head and sighed, and walked straight down the tower, according to what Bo Cai said, he immediately returned to his soldiers and horses.
When Xu Huang saw Liu Zheng coming back, he immediately came up and asked Liu Zheng what had happened.
The Yellow Turban Army around has been mobilized to attack the official army, and less than 10,000 people are still guarding the city and guarding the city gates.
"Liu Zheng, what's wrong?"
"It's a big deal, I think we might have to escape."
"Run? What's wrong, what's going on? ”
Liu Zheng did not hide Xu Huang, and when Xu Huang heard Liu Zheng's words, he was also frightened by Liu Zheng's words.
"I don't have time to explain to you, Xu Huang will take all the people immediately, we won't go out of the city to fight against the officials and troops outside the city, and go directly to the East City Gate!"
After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he began to ask Xu Huang to take the people and go straight to the east city gate.
Although Liu Zheng guessed at the beginning that the people who betrayed the Yellow Turban Army might be Liu Bi and He Yi.
But in Liu Zheng's heart, he has actually affirmed that the betrayer must be He Yi!
Judging from Liu Zheng's identity as a traverser, he vaguely remembered that Liu Pi was killed by the official army and died on the battlefield in history, and He Yi finally chose to surrender.
From this level, Liu Zheng can determine that Liu Pi should not be a betrayer, and since He Yi can choose to surrender, it is not impossible for him to defect to the official army before the war.
Even if Liu Zheng is not a traverser and does not know this information, Liu Zheng personally analyzes that he has a holiday with He Yi, and he is unlikely to choose to go to He Yi's side at this time.
On the contrary, Liu Pi and Xu You, although there is also the possibility of betrayal, it is much better than Liu Zheng staying here at the North City Gate, obeying Bocai, and fighting against the official army.
Staying here to fight against the official army, there is only one way to die, it is better to fight to the death, flee from the south of the city, and unite with Liu Pi, maybe there is still a way to live.
Just when Liu Zheng and his people had just left from the north city gate, at the west city gate, He Yi rushed over with a large number of officers and soldiers.
and besieged the north of the city of Runan.
The officers and troops attacked from the front and rear, and the purpose was very simple, that is, to capture Bocai, the biggest anti-thief in Yingchuan and Runan.
Bocai still had a trace of luck, but when he saw He Yi rushing over from the west with the official army, he regretted it.
regretted that he did not listen to Liu Zheng's advice. It's too late.
