Looking at the yellow scarf who was beaten by Zhao Hong and others, Xu Kang felt that things were not so simple.

Because he felt that no matter how bad the Yellow Turban Army was, it would not be defeated and flee by only one-tenth of his own army as soon as they met.

If they were really that rubbish, it would be impossible for them to besiege Zhu Jun from Youzhonglang, let alone stalemate with Lu Zhi's army for more than a month.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if these yellow turbans are really a rabble with extremely low combat effectiveness, but at the moment their number is not right!

You know, today's Changshe County has gathered hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, although it is impossible to pour out every battle, but only 10,000 people are too few, right?

Could it be that they don't look down on the imperial army, so they think that 10,000 people is enough?

This is obviously impossible.

Then there may be only one left - these 10,000 people are just the vanguard, and there are hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops behind!

"If that's the case, it will be troublesome, and when the time comes, you won't be able to fight, and you won't be able to escape, and I'm afraid that in the end, the whole army will be wiped out!"

Thinking of this, Xu Kang's face suddenly changed.

"No, this kind of thing must not be allowed to happen, give the order, withdraw the troops!"

"Yes!"

Hearing his words, the soldiers standing beside him immediately raised the banner of retreat.

And Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng, who were chasing and killing the Yellow Turban rout, felt very unwilling after seeing the withdrawal banner in the rear, but they could only give up the chase and follow the order to withdraw their troops back.

After they withdrew, before they could speak, Xu Kang asked them questions urgently.

"Zhao Hong, Zhang Cheng, let me ask you, how many roads are there from here to Changshe County?"

"Uh...... This ......" Hearing Xu Kang's brainless question, Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng suddenly glanced at each other with some confusion, and then hugged their fists at him and said: "Go back to my lord, there is only one road leading to Changshe County from here, and the rest is not feasible!" ”

"What?" Hearing that there was only one way, Xu Kang's brows suddenly wrinkled deeply, "It's troublesome now!" ”

Seeing his serious expression, and then in connection with the withdrawal order just now, Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng also reacted at this time, and a trace of surprise suddenly flashed on their faces.

"What do you mean, sir...... There is an army of Yellow Turban thieves in ambush ahead? ”

"Well, that's right!"

Xu Kang didn't hide it, and immediately told his guess.

"What we encountered just now should be the vanguard of the Yellow Turbans, and there is also a large army behind, if we continue to move forward, we will inevitably fall into a bitter battle, or even be wiped out!"

"Huh? So what to do? Hearing Xu Kang's words, Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng suddenly became a little anxious, "Do you want to withdraw the army, or send someone back to move the rescue soldiers?" ”

"Haha, that's not necessary!"

Looking at the anxious looks of the two, Xu Kang suddenly grinned and waved his hand at them at the same time.

"The intention of the Yellow Turban's move is to cut off Lord Lu Zhi's reinforcements and make him fall into an isolated and helpless situation, so as to defeat them completely, this is a strategy to encircle the point and send reinforcements, as long as we don't fight hard with them, it's okay, we can take a detour!"

"Detour?"

After hearing his words, Zhang Cheng immediately frowned, and hurriedly saluted his fist again.

"My lord, if you take a detour, you need to go north to Chenliu first, and then detour to Xu County from Chenliu to the east, before you can enter the Changshe, the distance is quite far, if you delay the military situation, I'm afraid the court will blame, it's better to ask for help, and I hope your lord will think twice!"

As soon as Zhang Cheng's words fell, Zhao Hong also persuaded: "Yes, my lord, it's better to send someone back to ask for help!" ”

Although neither of them said it explicitly, Xu Kang understood, so he laughed again.

"Hehe, I know you are kind, I am worried that if I don't arrive in time, if Lord Lu Zhi is defeated, I am afraid that I will be implicated, and if I ask for help, even if the court does not send reinforcements, I can shirk responsibility, but ......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned pale, and then patted his chest hard.

"I, Xu Yide, am I the kind of person who is afraid of taking responsibility? Since I'm here, I must defeat the Yellow Turban Thief, even if Lord Lu Zhi is defeated, as long as I still have a breath, I must fight the Yellow Turban to the end! ”

After hearing his categorical words, Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng were immediately deeply moved by his courage, and immediately clasped their fists together, "The last general is willing to follow the Lord to the death!" ”

The two didn't know that Xu Kang was righteous, but what he was thinking in his heart was: "As long as you can lie down and win, what is a detour?" Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi's contributions, Lao Tzu is decided! ”

Thinking of this, he was in a good mood and immediately grinned, and then waved his hand towards Zhao Hong and Zhang Chengyi, "Pass the order, give up going to Changshe, transfer to Chen Liu, and leave immediately!" ”

"No!"

Zhao Hong and Zhang Cheng agreed, and immediately gave the order, and then led the troops to turn around and march towards Chen Liu.

In order to prevent the recurrence of the previous situation, this time Xu Kang had a heart, he asked Zhao Hong to take a hundred cavalry to the front to explore the way, and once he found something wrong, he would report back in time.

It turned out that his decision was right, and when it was almost evening, Zhao Hong sent someone to report that the Yellow Turban Army had been found in front, and the number was as high as 100,000, which just cut off the road to Chenliu.

After hearing the news, Xu Kang was not too surprised, because since the Yellow Turban was a reinforcement point, even the road from Luoyang to Changshe was cut off, and there was no reason to leave Chen alone.

Moreover, the Yellow Turban can garrison 100,000 troops here, which means that there are at least thousands of defenders in Chenliu County, and they will send people to garrison and intercept them here in order to prevent these Chen Liujun troops from rescuing the Changshe.

This is undoubtedly good news.

"These Yellow Turban Army are here to prevent Chen Liujun from supporting the Changshe, I shouldn't have expected that we would appear from behind him, as long as Chen Liu's garrison cooperates, even if they can't defeat them, it should be no problem to rush out!"

Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately recruited Zhao Hong to his side and handed over his official seal to him.

"Zhao Hong, you immediately take my official seal to Chenliu, and ask Chen Liutaishou to send troops to attack the Yellow Turban Army tonight and open the passage for me, just say that there will be heavy thanks after the deed, without further ado, go now!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Hong, who got the order, immediately agreed, and then set off with the official seal given to him by Xu Kang.

After Zhao Hong left, in order to prevent things from going wrong, Xu Kang called Zhang Cheng to his side again and gave him instructions.

"Zhang Cheng, immediately send an order, let the grain officer distribute all the rice and grain to the soldiers, so that the soldiers can immediately make a fire to cook, remember, this time to cook rice instead of gruel, and tell all the soldiers that the saddle will not leave the horse tonight, the armor will not leave the body, get ready, and attack the Yellow Turban thief in time!"

"No!"
