Chapter 12: Robbery

The Yellow Turban Army revolted, and the momentum was huge, and all states and counties responded to it.

However, there are only three places that can really make a big move and have a huge impact on the officers and troops.

The Yingchuan and Runan Yellow Turban armies led by Bo Cai. The Nanyang Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Mancheng and the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao's three brothers. Although there were responses in other places, they did not make too many waves.

The Yellow Turban Army in these three places was an important battlefield that attracted a large number of officers and troops, and now Bocai failed in Yingchuan and could only retreat to Runan.

In Runan, there is still a part of the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army, which firmly occupies Runan County. They only need to rely on Runan County to confront the official army, and they have a chance to turn defeat into victory, but things are often not as simple as they seem.

Bocai's retreat was no faster than the pursuit of the official army, and when he retreated to Chen Guo in Runan County with the only remaining 50,000 troops, he was caught up by the official army and engaged again.

The result is naturally unclear, because of the defeat in Changshe, and now the morale has not recovered, and 50,000 horses are defeated by the official army, and they are defeated again.

When the 50,000-strong army fled to Runan City, there were less than 30,000 left.

The original army of 200,000 died and fled.

On the contrary, it was Liu Zheng, who took his own people along the way, and when he arrived in Runan, because he received a lot of deserters, the number once skyrocketed to more than 4,000 people.

Because there was no commander of Qu Zheng, Liu Zheng's men and horses were arranged in a corner of Runan City. and did not provide food and grass for Liu Zheng's men and horses.

Even so, Liu Zheng was not angry. After all, he didn't want to be too deeply involved with these Yellow Turban Army.

When they retreated from Quyang City, they still brought some grain and grass, barely enough to eat for a few days.

But when they had just set up camp and settled down in Runan County, they were met by a force that was also the Yellow Turban Army to ask for their food and grass, Liu Zheng was really angry.

"Who's the head of you here?"

A group of Yellow Turban soldiers came to Liu Zheng's camp. There were not many people, only forty or fifty people, but all of them stood tall and proud, holding large knives in their hands, and standing in front of the camp with fierce faces.

Liu Zheng received orders from several Yellow Turban miscellaneous soldiers, so he hurriedly walked out from behind the camp tent.

is also a Yellow Turban Army, and Liu Zheng doesn't want to fall out with the other party. Despite the other party's unreasonableness, Liu Zheng was still quite approachable, and went up to talk to them with a pleasant face.

"A few brothers, our Qu Shuai is lost, and now he is the one who talks about things in this group of brothers, do you have anything to do?"

"It turned out to be a motley army with no one to command, and there wasn't even a commander of the Qu Army, so you were embarrassed to come to our Runan County?"

A yellow turban thief led by a yellow turban thief had a lot of unkind tones, and the words he said were extremely ugly, but Liu Zheng still endured it.

"We don't have any other meaning here, we just want to tell you that our Yellow Turban Army in Runan County is not living well, and we have eaten the last meal without the next meal, and we want to come to you to borrow some food and grass!"

The Yellow Turban Army mocked Liu Zheng and the others, and then said straight to the point, ignoring it. After saying this sentence, Liu Zheng's face immediately became gloomy.

They led the army to Runan City, in fact, although there was a reason to seek refuge, but more of them also wanted to come over to support Bocai to defeat the official army, but now they are facing such difficulties from the people who are also members of the Yellow Turban Army, not to mention that they do not give food and grass, but also ask for their food and grass, which makes Liu Zheng's anger in his heart begin to rise.

Xu Huang, who was standing beside Liu Zheng, couldn't bear it anymore and immediately retorted.

"What? Looking for us to ask for food and grass? Not only do you people in charge here not give us grain and grass, but they also want to ask us for food and grass, where does this come from? ”

"Didn't the quartermaster give you food and grass? We don't know about this, but also, people who don't even have a qu shuai are not eligible to receive grain and grass. ”

This strong man in the yellow scarf showed a look of surprise on his face, but his tone was quite flat, which made people know at a glance that the other party knew that Liu Zheng and the others did not get grain and grass, but they still came to them to ask for it, and it was deliberate.

"But if you don't have enough food and grass, we can reluctantly let you exchange other things, such as the more than 100 war horses in your team, as long as you hand over those war horses, we don't need you to hand over the grain and grass!"

After the strong man in the yellow turban said his purpose, Liu Zheng suddenly realized that these guys were fighting the idea of the more than 100 war horses in their team, and the so-called asking for grain and grass was just an excuse.

"So you guys were fighting our horses."

Liu Zheng's face was gloomy, his face was extremely ugly, and he spit out these words from his mouth.

As the saying goes. The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. You don't attract hatred in yourself, but if you take what others want, you will be hated.

War horses, such military supplies, in this era, are naturally what everyone wants.

Not to mention that Liu Zheng is just a miscellaneous Yellow Turban soldier with little reputation, even if Yang Feng is still here, if he has more than 100 such excellent war horses under his command, he will definitely be worried about the other Yellow Turban Army.

"Hehe, since you have seen through it, then I won't hide anything, that's right, we just took a fancy to those war horses in your team, and those who know each other will hand over all the war horses, otherwise, don't blame us for being polite, although you are also the Yellow Turban Army, but you are a ragtag army, you don't deserve to have such good war horses!"

"What if we don't give?"

Liu Zheng lowered his head and looked coldly at the dozens of yellow turban thieves in front of him.

"If you don't give it, then you will die!"

The Yellow Turban Army in the lead was ruthless, after Liu Zheng finished speaking. It's a knife at your fingertips. The steel knife in his hand slashed at Liu Zheng's chest.

This group of Yellow Turbans came prepared, and they had long understood that it was impossible to obediently let Liu Zheng and the others hand over their war horses, so their plan early in the morning was to rob them openly.

Seeing that Liu Zheng did not agree, he took the lead in making a move, wanting to seize the opportunity, as long as Liu Zheng was directly killed, the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers would not dare to act rashly, so that they could ask for all those war horses from Liu Zheng's gang.

As long as Liu Zheng's group of Yellow Turban Army is given a dismount, presumably these guys will obediently obey.

But they never expected that Liu Zheng had already taken precautions, and at the same time that the strong man in the yellow turban slashed over, Liu Zheng quickly took a step back, and the steel knife quickly slashed in Liu Zheng's ear, and Liu Zheng faintly heard the whistling sound of the blade cutting in his ear.

"The deception is too much, Xu Huang don't show mercy, kill them for me!"
