The Yellow Turban Rebellion, a feat that completely shook the foundations of the Han Dynasty, started in such a hurry that many deployments were not implemented. Come to think of it, this is one of the reasons for its failure. And the culprit is the man standing in front of Lu Bu at the moment - Tang Zhou.

He informed to the imperial court and betrayed the commander of Jing and Yang, Ma Yuanyi, who was in charge of liaising with the eunuchs and forbidden troops in the capital (this name could not be fought continuously due to harmony), causing Zhang Jiao to lose his internal response in the court, and Ma Yuanyi was also torn apart.

For the people of the Yellow Turban Army, he should have been hated to the bone, but at this moment, there are nearly 20,000 remnants of the Yellow Turban Standing behind him.

Everyone present, whether it was Li Jinjun or Lu Bujun, had such a doubt in their hearts.

"Has the traitor come to the rescue?" Lu Bu asked in a low voice. Although he was angry, he still kept his senses, if Tang Zhou really came to save Zhang Feng, then it meant that the enemy had more than 10,000 more helpers.

"Wen Hou, in this trip, I was only entrusted by someone to rescue Zhang Feng, as for the grievances between you, I have no intention of asking about it. I wonder if Wen Hou can make it convenient? Tang Zhou looked at Lu Bu with only one eye and said sincerely.

"What if I don't let it go?" Lu Bu said, with a slight force on his feet, although Zhang Feng was unconscious, he still had instinctive awareness, and his body moved slightly.

"Why should Wen Hou be like this, you know that if you kill him at this moment, we will definitely be with Li Jin. Besides, Wen Hou's enemy was not Zhang Feng, but Cao Cao, no, it should be Duan Xuan. And if Wen Hou fights to the death with Li Jin here, then there will be no chance to kill him. It's better to make a promise to Wen Hou here, as long as Wen Hou can let Zhang Feng go, I will escort you to evacuate this place, and if Li Jin dares to do it again, I will deal with him with you. ”

Hard and soft, this is the skill of negotiation. Let the other party know the seriousness of the consequences, and then follow the path he pointed out, Lu Bu also had to admit that he really didn't seem to have a choice.

Maybe he could refuse him with the courage of a moment, but if his soldiers and horses were all consumed here, he would no longer be able to kill Duan Xuan, who was under Cao Cao's protection.

Diao Chan sat tremblingly not far away, and at this time she was also praying desperately in her heart, hoping that Lu Bu would agree to him.

"Lu has to say that Your Excellency's bet has won." Lu Bu gritted his teeth, grabbed Zhang Feng and threw him on the ground in front of him.

The two Yellow Turban soldiers behind Tang Zhou ran over, took back the unconscious Zhang Feng, and immediately bandaged him.

Tang Zhou threw up his hand at Lu Bu and said with a smile: "Thank you Wen Hou for your magnanimity. ”

Lu Bu snorted, and then motioned for Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and others to lead the army to leave.

"Lu Bu! Do you really think you're going to leave alive? Li Jin suddenly shouted.

Before Lu Bu could speak, Tang Zhou looked at him with cold eyes and said, "Li Yishi, your actions today are enough to go down in history, so why do you have to kill more?" Fang Cai Tang once said, if you still want to embarrass Wen Hou, I will fight you with him. ”

Li Jin was about to say something, but among the rangers behind him, someone spoke first:

"Li Jin, let them go, do you really want me to die with my life?"

"That is, although we have a righteous heart, we do not want to sacrifice in vain."

"Yes, why be stubborn in this defeated battle, we are all injured, how can we fight against these more than 10,000 yellow scarves again."

Li Jin turned his head sharply to look behind him.

These people are not officials and soldiers in the end, and they all choose the latter between morality and life.

But what he couldn't accept was that the officers and soldiers sent by the government had already begun to retreat at this time!

Li Jin angrily plunged the sword in his hand into the soil and yelled: "Get out!" ”

This is not for Lu Bu, but for the group of cowards behind him who only care about saving their lives.

The rangers looked at Li Jin with some unbearable feeling, but in the end they all left silently.

"Lu Bu, you'd better never come back, otherwise the next time we meet, I will let you die without a place to be buried!" Li Jin said to Lu Bu.

When Zhang Liao and the others heard this, they wanted to rush forward again, but they were blocked by Lu Bu's horizontal halberd.

He just turned around and whispered, "Withdraw." ”

……

Seeing that the two groups of people had left, Tang Zhou sighed and turned around to check Zhang Feng's injuries.

At this time, Zhang Feng's face was pale, trembling all over, and although the place where his shoulder was broken was already tightened with cloth, he was still oozing blood.

Tang Zhou knew that if this continued, the child's life would be gone.

So he immediately gave the order for the whole army to retreat.

They did not follow the main road, but came to the woods on the other side of the river.

This is the camp where they have always lived.

At this time, there were hundreds of people cooking in the camp, after all, it was not easy to provide food for so many people. Moreover, it was almost dawn.

In fact, they came all the way from Jingzhou Jiangxia.

All the way north, they traveled along the state and county borders, trying to avoid being spotted, because the smoke rising from the cooking was visible from afar.

When they returned to the camp, Tang Zhou immediately ordered Zhang Feng to be flattened, untied the bandage that was stuck with blood, and washed it with water.

And he himself picked up a knife and plunged it into the fire.

"This time, Yun Shuai owes you a favor again." A woman of twenty-six or seventeen walked up to Tang Zhou and said calmly. This woman's name is Yan Xue, and she is the commander of the night. She was specially ordered to pick up Zhang Feng.

"After all, her saved my life......" Tang Zhou stared at the knife in the fire with one eye, and motioned for the woman to sit down.

"I didn't expect you to be such a loving person." The woman sat down not far from him, "I have always had an unknown matter. ”

"What's wrong with the Snow Maiden?" Tang Zhou asked.

"Why did you betray your fellow man, being such a righteous man?"

Tang Zhou didn't answer, just sat quietly. After a while, he slowly stretched out his right hand and touched his scar.

"Does the Snow Maiden know who gave me this scar?"

Yan Xue shook her head, not understanding why he was saying this.

"This was cut by Ma Yuanyi."

"Is it time for you to betray him?"

"It's when he's going to betray me." Tang Zhou smiled bitterly.

Looking at Yan Xue's stunned expression, he continued: "Maybe if I say that, you won't believe it. In fact, he was the one who betrayed his companions. ”

"What?!" Yan Xue exclaimed.

"Why do you think these people would follow me, a 'traitor'? It's just because they know the truth. It was Ma Yuanyi who wanted to betray everyone back then. When I learned that he was going to tell the truth, I was about to kill him, but I happened to be broken in by his men. I relented because I wanted to capture him alive, but he was dethroned and had to flee from the capital. ”

"Then why did you end up tearing him apart?" Yan Xue was puzzled, if it was really as he said, then it should be someone else who was executed, and Ma Yuanyi should be rewarded.

"The eunuchs in the court and the forbidden army were actually in contact with me, and after the defeat, I was hunted down and hidden. These important officials of the court and the central government couldn't arrest me, so they pointed the finger at him, after all, no one would want to let a person who knew that he had betrayed continue to live in Beijing. ”

Tang Zhou flipped over the knife and looked back to see that his subordinates were helping Zhang Feng clean his shoulders, and then continued.

"Soon after, I heard about his death. From then on, those I contacted began to search for my whereabouts, and finally I was found, and when I was almost killed, Weiyun saved me. After that, when I recovered from my wounds, I searched for my lost men, and it took years for me to get them back together. ”

After listening to this story, Yan Xue only felt that her memory had been completely subverted. After digesting it for a long time, she finally fully understood what had happened.

It turned out that the person who wanted to use the lives of his companions to seek high-ranking officials was Ma * Yuanyi.

"Then why don't you explain it to the elders?"

"After Ma Yuanyi's death, his night marshal also hated me. They were the first to come to the virtuous old man and say that I had betrayed them. And they sent men to hunt me down, and I couldn't go back to the main hall at all. Tang Zhou said in disappointment.

Yan Xue didn't speak, but faintly felt a tightness in her chest. Intuition told her that Tang Zhou was not lying, and if all this was true, then Tang Zhou was too pitiful.

Just as Yan Xue was thinking, a soldier of the Yellow Turban Army ran over and told Tang Zhou that Zhang Feng's wound had been cleaned up.

Tang Zhou nodded and took the knife out of the fire.

"What are you going to do?" Yan Xue asked.

"Just wanted to see if that kid didn't die properly." Tang Zhou smiled at her and walked towards Zhang Feng.

The two soldiers had already held him down, and Tang Zhou didn't hesitate and directly put the knife on his wound.

"Ah~~~~~~" The sharp pain woke Zhang Feng up, and he struggled to get up, but he couldn't move due to excessive blood loss and being held down by the two.

Yan Xue couldn't bear to look at his face distorted by this "torture", and the white smoke rising from the burning wound, so she had to close her eyes.

But Zhang Feng struggled and screamed, and the sound of sizzling still reached her ears.

She couldn't help frowning, as if it was herself who was burned.

The moment the knife was taken away, Zhang Feng, who was sweating profusely and had protruding eyes, fainted again.

The wound has been taken care of, it will not fester, and the rest can only depend on his life.

Although Tang Zhou's subordinates had less than 20,000 people, they did not know how to heal, so under such embarrassing conditions, they had to treat their wounds in this way.

In fact, since Tang Zhou gathered back to the old department, he has been living in Jiangxia with his subordinates, as a force guarantee for Weiyun there.

And because of Sun Jian's strategy before, Huang Zu also generously paid for their food. Anyway, if it's not enough, he will reach out to Liu Biao, and he can add nearly 20,000 helpers who don't need to worry about it, and Huang Zu also wants them to stay.

The last time Weiyun got news of Zhang Feng, he was still in Hanoi. It was when he went out of the city that he was seen by Weiyun's men who stayed in the north to search.

Tang Zhouzhong also started to set off from that time, but because they had to avoid people's eyes and ears, they traveled very slowly.

Coincidentally, when Tang Zhou was marching north along the border between Jiyin and Shanyang counties, his subordinates suddenly reported that they had heard that Zhang Feng was here. So after several inquiries, he finally knew Zhang Feng's location, and saved his life at a critical time.

According to Weiyun's meaning, Yan Xue only had to wait until Zhang Feng could walk freely and then take him back.

But today's Zhang Feng is no longer the one Weiyun knew at the beginning.

His only purpose of survival now is to kill Lu Bu.

Losing an arm, what will happen to him in the future.

With these questions, Yan Xue fell asleep in the first rays of dawn......
