Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Plea for Help from Jizhou
Only by appeasing those who are injured and unable to fight, and who have even died fighting for Liu Zheng, let everyone know that it will not be wrong to follow him Liu Zheng, even if he dies in battle, Liu Zheng will also sympathize with his family, and Liu Zheng will be able to unite these Yellow Turban Army even more.
Let the Yellow Turbans no longer be afraid of battle, no longer just to eat a full meal, but to fight!
What Liu Zheng wants is to change these concepts of the Yellow Turban Army, so that these Yellow Turban Army soldiers understand that they are no longer fighting just for a bite to eat, but to fight for their own lives and their own rights!
Three days later, Cai Mao's guy escorted Liu Zheng with what he needed, and sure enough, there were thirty sets of sophisticated weapons and armor inside, and there were also 10,000 weapons that were enough to equip an elite army and sent them to Runan City.
Along with him, there was also a messenger from Jizhou, who read out the order of Tiangong General Zhang Jiao.
Liu Zheng's side had just distributed the weapons sent by Cai Mao, and Zhou Cang hurried over and said to Liu Zheng that a messenger had come from Jizhou, saying that General Tiangong had something important to read to him.
Liu Zheng put down the affairs in his hand and hurriedly came to the county office of Runan City to meet the messenger.
After seeing the visitor, Liu Zheng knew that it was none other than Chu Yan, who had seen him before.
As soon as Chu Yan saw Liu Zheng, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and she immediately told Liu Zheng about her intentions.
"Liu Zhengqushuai, you are finally here, I have the order of the great sage and good teacher here, and I want to read it out to you."
Liu Zheng actually didn't need Chu Yan to speak, he could probably guess what Chu Yan would say, but he was still not in a hurry, slowly walked in front of Chu Yan, and asked Chu Yan to read out Zhang Jiao's order.
Only then did Chu Yan speak, and took out a yellow silk silk with some words written on it.
After Chu Yan muttered a few words, Liu Zheng nodded, as he guessed, Zhang Jiao really couldn't stop it, and began to invite Liu Zheng and others who were on the periphery to go over to King Qin.
The so-called King Qin is to let Liu Zheng and Zhang Mancheng and others, and the Yellow Turban Army Qu Shuai on the periphery go to Jizhou to gather and jointly block the attack of other Zhonglang generals.
Liu Zheng had already thought that Zhang Jiao would have such a day, but when Zhang Jiao really called him over, Liu Zheng didn't expect it to be so soon.
It stands to reason that Zhang Jiao can at least block the time of the three major lieutenant generals for a while, could it be that Zhang Jiao has already discovered his illness now, and his days are running out.
But no matter what, knowing that Zhang Jiao was about to die, Liu Zheng naturally made it even more impossible to go to Jizhou to send him to death.
He finally managed to accumulate these 30,000 people, if all of them were brought to Jizhou to support Zhang Jiao, it would definitely be a dead end, he didn't think that with his own strength, he could block the attack of the three major lieutenant generals at the same time.
He was able to mix in Runan before, firstly, because Huangfu Song left with Cao Cao and other famous generals, and at the same time, there was also Runan, which had been abandoned by the official army, and there were not many main forces of the official army.
But Jizhou is different, the three major middle roads are now in Jizhou, which also includes Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, and other future heroes.
Liu Zheng, the three major lieutenant generals, may not be particularly afraid, but these people are what Liu Zheng is really afraid of, especially the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang, who are all elite, three or four hundred people, all of whom can embarrass tens of thousands of people under Liu Zheng's command.
If Liu Zheng leads these people, although he can resist some officials and troops a little, but on the battlefield, the victory or defeat is only a matter of time.
Thinking about these clearly, Liu Zheng spoke directly at Chu Yan.
"General Chu Yan, does General Tiangong mean to let me take someone to Jizhou to support him?"
"Well, Liu Zhengqu Shuai, now the situation in Jizhou is not optimistic, a few days ago, I took Zhang Ning Saintess back to Jizhou, but found that Dong Zhuojun, who was originally fighting with you in Runan, actually followed to Jizhou, they converged with Huangfu Song's men and horses, and now they are near Changshan Country, launching a general attack on the Digong General Zhang Bao, although the weak General Zhang Bao can resist for a while, but the soldiers and horses have suffered heavy casualties, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on for long."
"General Tiangong just wants to let the Yellow Turban Qu Marshals around him come to support, as long as this wave of the imperial court is blocked, the turmoil within the imperial court will be greater, and our chances of killing Luoyang will be greater."
Chu Yan actually didn't say a word, if he couldn't stop the attack of the official army this time, the Yellow Turban Army would be destroyed.
But at this time, at this juncture, of course he would not say this to Liu Zheng.
But he didn't say it, Liu Zheng also knew it.
Therefore, Liu Zheng was reluctant to go to Jizhou, but Liu Zheng heard a word in Chu Yan's mouth, attacking Luoyang.
Attacking Luoyang, the word fell in Liu Zheng's eyes, and immediately made Liu Zheng think of a solution.
Since their Yellow Turban Army's original plan was to attack Luoyang, why didn't he directly take the rest of the people to attack Luoyang?
In today's situation, Zhang Jiao was besieged by the three Zhonglang generals in Jizhou, although the three Zhonglang generals added up to only fifty or sixty thousand people, but they had already transferred most of the troops near Luoyang.
The remaining part of the soldiers and horses are only distributed among the eight passes near Luoyang, and each pass needs to be garrisoned, and there will definitely not be many soldiers and horses.
And if Liu Zheng led people to attack Luoyang at this time, it would definitely be able to work wonders.
Of course, attacking Luoyang, with Liu Zheng's 30,000 soldiers and horses, is definitely not good, but what he wants to do is not to really defeat Luoyang, but to use the method of encircling Wei to save Zhao to attract the attention of the three major Zhonglang generals in Jizhou!
Once Liu Zheng can threaten Luoyang, the three major Zhonglang will definitely not be able to sit still, and there will definitely be one or two Zhonglang who will come over to help.
In this way, the pressure on Jizhou Zhang Jiao will be greatly reduced, and at the same time, Liu Zheng may not be able to beat the three major Zhonglang generals, but if he only deals with one Zhonglang general who has returned to help, twenty or thirty thousand people, Liu Zheng feels that he may not lose.
This move, encircling Wei to save Zhao, may be able to work wonders.
In terms of taking 10,000 steps back, if the men and horses of the three major lieutenant generals ignore him and let him attack Luoyang, then Liu Zheng will attack Luoyang with all his might, and he may not have a chance to break Luoyang.
As soon as he thought of this plan, Liu Zheng immediately spoke.
"Support Jizhou, I don't think this method is appropriate, General Chu Yan, do you think these horses here have beaten the three major lieutenant generals?"
Liu Zheng asked Chu Yan rhetorically, Chu Yan was stunned, hesitated, and still gave Liu Zheng an answer.
"It's worrying."
These two words already represent the meaning of Chu Yan, and he didn't say it explicitly.
"Yes, since I can't beat it, it's futile to pass, I have a plan."
"What's the plan?"
