The unprepared Ruan Xiangxi was caught off guard by the Red Turban Army, and now that the Red Turban Army's 150,000 troops are pressing the border, Ruan Xiangxi is desperate, he slumped on the ground, and kept saying: "It's over, it's over, it's all over." ”

When the people in the governor's mansion saw the rebels entering the city, they fled one by one before they had time to pack up, and even Ruan Xiangxi's favorite wives abandoned him. I have to sigh that people's hearts are not ancient.

Han Yu, Han Lin, and Liu Tong drove their horses straight to the Zhou Yin Mansion, and there were no subordinates who were constantly escaping from the palace, so they directly drove their horses into the Zhou Yin Mansion and stopped in front of Ruan Xiangxi, who was sitting in the hall.

When Ruan Xiangxi saw these three people, he stood up in good spirits, tidied up his clothes, and then said to Han Yu with a smile: "Lord Han Helm, oh no, you should be called Generalissimo Han now." Unexpectedly, I fought with your White Lotus Sect for half my life, and finally lost in your hands. Awesome, really amazing. ”

Ruan Xiangxi, as the Yin of Zhaozhou Prefecture, was originally an old rival with the White Lotus Sect Zhaozhou rudder, so he naturally knew Han Yu as the helmsman and Han Lin and Liu Tong, the left and right protectors.

Han Yu said with a smile: "Lord Zhou Yin has praised it falsely, the original people have done a lot of injustice, although they are fierce, but they are not good at governing the world. If this continues, the people will not be able to make a living, and sooner or later the country will be lost. We just conform to the will of heaven and the people, and if we are any one of them, we will succeed. ”

Ruan Xiangxi sneered: "It's all this time, you still have to fight with me." Hehe, it's clear that I'm the court official. ”

Han Yu smiled at the corner of his mouth and ignored it. Ruan Xiangxi asked again: "By the way, my Zhaozhou city gate is impregnable, how did you capture it in this night when you can't see your fingers?" ”

Han Yu smiled and said, "Lord Zhou Yin, don't forget our origins. ”

Ruan Xiangxi was puzzled: "Origin? ”

Han Yu laughed and glanced at Han Lin. Han Lin understood, stood up and replied, "That's right, it's the origin." Lord Zhou Yin, has he forgotten that we in the White Lotus Sect are all Jianghu people? Since you are from the rivers and lakes, it is not too difficult for us Jianghu people to sneak into the city gate late at night, and then rob a guard to change into your military clothes as the city gate guards, and then kill a few big soldiers guarding the gate. ”

Ruan Xiangxi glanced at the former army uniform on Han Lin's body that he hadn't had time to change into, understood, and stopped asking this question. He said, "Then you are going to kill me, and then take my head and hang it on the city gate?" ”

Han Yu said: "No, it's useless for me to keep your life. ”

Without waiting for Ruan Xiangxi to ask again, Han Yu ordered: "Come on, take Lord Yin down to rest, eat and drink well, and don't slack off." ”

The Red Turban Army, who was on standby outside the door, received the order and took Ruan Xiangxi down.

......

When Zhu Chuba arrived, Zhaozhou City had already been taken by the Red Turban Army. Zhu Chuba was surprised by the speed of the Red Turban Army's siege of the city, and did not dare to neglect the intelligence that Chahan Timur was rushing with a large army, so he hurriedly entered the city to report to Han Yu.

Han Yu had already moved to the Yin Mansion in Yuanzhou, and Zhu Chuba was now in the hall where Ruan Xiangxi was arrested that day.

It was not Han Yu who came out to greet Zhu Chuba first, but Han Lin. Han Lin took Zhu Chuba's hand and asked, "Brother Chuba, can you go to Yingzhou smoothly?" ”

Zhu Chuba saw that it was Han Lin and replied: "Everything went well, although I was trapped in the city for many days, the letter was finally taken back by me." ”

"Oh? In this way, reinforcements from Yingzhou City will not arrive. This sentence was Han Yu, who had just come over and heard Zhu Chuba speak.

When Zhu Chuba saw Han Yu, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen Uncle Han." ”

Han Yu smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew don't have to be polite, you have made a great contribution to our Red Turban Army this time." If you hadn't dragged the reinforcements from Yingzhou and wanted to capture Zhaozhou City, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so simple. ”

Zhu Chuba smiled bitterly: "Uncle Han, don't say that, Chuba came this time, but he came with bad news." ”

"The bad news? Could it be that Yingzhou dared to send troops to help even if they didn't get a letter asking for help? Han Yu asked.

Zhu Chuba replied: "It's not true, but it may be worse than this." ”

Han Yu frowned and said, "Virtuous nephew, just say it, Zhaozhou City has been captured, and our Red Turban Army basically has no losses." The current Red Turban Army, with the advantage of the city wall, is no longer afraid of any opponent. ”

When Zhu Chuba heard this, he said honestly: "When I came, I happened to meet the general Qincha sent by the imperial court with 50,000 elite soldiers. With the holy decree, of course Yingzhou dared to send troops, plus the 50,000 elite soldiers, the form was very grim. ”

Han Yu frowned, if the Yingzhou army plus the 50,000 elite soldiers of the imperial court, the enemy would have more soldiers and horses than them. Could it be that the roles between them and the original army some time ago are going to be reversed?

That's not good.

Han Yu learned this news from Zhu Chuba's mouth, which was not good news for the Red Turban Army, and immediately ordered it to go down and enter a state of full readiness. This time it was their turn to defend the city, so the guard at the city gate would naturally not be relaxed. Han Yu will not forget how he easily took Zhaozhou City, although he knows that this method cannot be copied without strong enough skills and courage, but since it is a loophole, it is more reassuring to fill it.

Zhu Chuba and Han Lin were awarded the titles of General of the Left Wing and General of the Right Wing respectively for their decisive contributions in the capture of Zhaozhou City, each leading 10,000 troops. In terms of official positions alone, the two of them are now the second only figures in the Red Turban Army after Han Yu and Liu Tong.

As for the fact that Zhu Chuba was not from the White Lotus Sect Zhaozhou, even Liu Tong didn't dare to mention it again, how could others dare to talk about this matter. First, although Zhu Chuba is not at the helm in Zhaozhou, he is in the same vein as the White Lotus Sect after all. Second, among the current low-level soldiers of the Red Turban Army, only a very small number belong to the White Lotus Sect, so this army can only be the Red Turban Army in name, not the White Lotus Sect.

......

Zhu Chuba did not go to the army for the first time after he won the post of left-wing general, and at the same time, Han Lin, a right-wing general who had always been steady, did not even go to the army to report. The third of these two Red Turbans actually found a remote suburb in the city and fought!

Zhu Chuba is also very helpless, the army is about to be overwhelmed, according to his original intention, he should go to the army to lead the troops to practice as soon as possible, after all, their army is far from being elite. But as soon as he was about to set off, he was pulled by Han Lin to compete with great interest. Zhu Chuba still has a good impression of this little marshal, and at this time he is serving in the Red Turban Army, of course, it is not good to save the face of the son of the boss of the Red Turban Army, so he had to agree.
