When Gao Cheng and Huang Zun were mentioning the new assassin history, the future Xuzhou pastor, the current Xuzhou assassin history, was summoning the elites of the major families in Xuzhou in Xiapi.

Among them, the Cao family is the first family of Xiapi, and after hearing that Tao Qian served as the assassin of Xuzhou, he immediately sent Cao Bao to visit. Tao Qian's reputation spread all over the Han Dynasty, he once served as the assassin of Youzhou and served as a speaker in the court, he is a famous man in the world, and his spiritual power is very strong, reaching the realm of extraordinary soul refining.

Such a celebrity is not the assassin of the previous one, both in terms of means and strength, he is very powerful. Tao Qian has righteousness in his hands, and the Cao clan does not dare to disobey.

In addition to Cao Bao, Mi Zhu was also summoned. There is also Wang Lang, who is very famous, who is also in the hall.

The old man kneeling at the top did not smile, his expression was stiff, and his eyes were very sharp. He is the new Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, who is famous for his uprightness.

Beside him, there were two men dressed as scribes, one of them was Tao Qian's fellow countryman Zhu Rong, and the other was Zhao Yu from Langya, Zhu Rong's appearance was slightly gloomy, and he didn't say a word on Tao Qian's side, while Zhao Yu and Wang Lang talked and laughed and talked happily.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty appointed the old man as the assassin of Xuzhou, hoping that I can exterminate the Yellow Turban Rebellion and pacify Xuzhou, but the old man is not familiar with the situation here when he first comes here, I don't know if you have any advice that can help me?"

As soon as Tao Qian spoke, everyone who was talking and laughing suddenly stopped. Wang Lang's reputation is second only to Tao Qian, and he smiled first: "The Yellow Turban Rebellion is just a disease of scabies, Tao Gong is fair and gentle, he must have made a decision, if Tao Gong has an order, I will obey the order!"

"But I want to say that the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou have been in ruin for a long time, and if you want to exterminate the Yellow Turbans, you must first have an elite army! And you must also have a general to command, otherwise it will be difficult to stop the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans pouring into Xuzhou!"

Wang Lang is talking about the biggest problem in Xuzhou now. The perennial comfort has made Xuzhou's soldiers and horses slack, and they have become a rabble, which is not useful at all. These people can still be of some use in defending the city, but they will definitely not be able to fight the Yellow Turban rebels head-on.

Tao Qian frowned slightly when he heard this, if he was given a certain amount of time, he would definitely be able to recruit an elite army in Danyang, but now that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was about to enter the country, it was too late to send someone to recruit troops.

Zhao Yunai is Tao Qian's most trusted staff, he thought for a while, and said: "Xuzhou soldiers and horses are useless, and it is too late to recruit troops now, but I heard that the Cao clan and the Mi clan have a lot of elite soldiers, I don't know if they can temporarily act as the imperial court soldiers and horses to suppress the yellow scarf? If Xuzhou can be pacified, the credit is not small, and His Majesty will definitely issue an edict and reward at that time!"

When Wang Lang heard this, his heart suddenly dawned, it turned out that Tao Qian and Zhao Yu had such an idea in their hearts, and wanted to incorporate the family soldiers of the Cao family and the Mi family, but it was a pity that the family soldiers of the family were the foundation of the foothold, and they would definitely not be easily lent out.

Cao Bao didn't have such a good cultivation, and when he heard Zhao Yu's words, his face turned blue and white. I wanted to kill the other party with one punch, but at this time, Tao Qian shifted his gaze and looked at him quietly. In an instant, he felt a strong pressure.

A trace of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he wanted to grit his teeth and refuse, but at this time, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his heart, and a thought came to him, and he hurriedly said: "Tao Gong, although my Cao family's soldiers are elite, their number is too small, even if they are lent out, it will be difficult to resist the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban army! I have an idea that I can let Tao Gong get tens of thousands of elites!"

Tao Qian's eyes flashed, and he said, "Oh, I don't know what the plan is?"

Cao Bao said: "I heard that Zang Ba, who assassinated Taishan County Shou in order to save his father, now has tens of thousands of bandits in Donghai County, and the county guard does not dare to provoke, if Tao Gong can recruit this person as a general, he can have tens of thousands of elites and a general out of thin air!"

Tao Qian had heard of Zang Ba's reputation, and when he heard that this person was now in Donghai County, his eyes lit up, if it was really as Cao Bao said, he could make this person a general under his command, and he would be sure to deal with the Yellow Turban.

Zang Ba was born in a small family in Taishan County, and it is understandable that he became a bandit in order to save his father. Tao Qian immediately agreed to this strategy.

Mi Zhu on the side lowered his head slightly, hiding the cold glint in his eyes, when his second brother and little sister were intercepted and killed by bandits, he had secretly investigated clearly, and the leader of the bandits that day was named Sun Kang. He had a younger brother named Sun Guan.

And Sun Guan is Zang Ba's right-hand man, and his strength is not weak.

The mastermind behind the interception and killing of Sun Kang's second brother and sister is the Cao family, known as the first world of Xiapi. Now if Zang Ba and Sun Guan and others are called Xuzhou generals, Sun Guan will find the revenge of Mi's brother in the future. It's a little hard to resist with the Mi family's soldiers!

The thought in his heart turned, and he also stepped forward and said: "Qi Tao Gong, I also recommend one person below, he is Gao Cheng, the county lieutenant of Huai'an, this person exterminated the water thieves in Baima Lake, swept away all the bandits in Huai'an, and there are several generals under his command who are brave, if he can be transferred to the state capital, he will be able to be called Tao Gong's help!"

Tao Qian thought for a moment and said: "Huai'an Gao Cheng, I have heard of this person, and he is also a hero in Xuzhou, okay! Yuanda, you come to write the edict of conquest and pass it to Zang Ba, and then recruit Huai'an Gao Cheng to lead the county to the north to listen to it!"

Subsequently, he issued orders again and again, enlisting Wang Lang to be engaged in governance, Mi Zhu and Zhao Yu to be engaged in other driving, and Cao Bao to be the lieutenant of Xiapi, responsible for defending the city and defending the city. Zhenrong was responsible for transporting grain and grass from Guangling and Pengcheng for military use.

......

A few days later, Gao Cheng was practicing swordsmanship in the mansion, and suddenly received news from Mi Zhu through a merchant ship, saying that the Xuzhou Assassin was ready to let him lead the county Yongbei up and down to conquer the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

"This is an opportunity!"

Gao Cheng was overjoyed in his heart, Tao Qian was quite famous at this time, if he could make meritorious contributions under him, with the merit of pacifying the Yellow Turban, it should not be a problem to hold the position of the Taishou of a county.

Well, if he can be called the county guard in Yangzhou, it is the best, so that he can manage the foundation well and develop freely.

It didn't take long for the official document of the state government to be passed through the official post.

After Gao Cheng received the order, he asked Gao Tai and Zhang Chen to take the family soldiers to guard the family business, and Lu Dai continued to sit in Shuizhai. He took Jiang Qin, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, mixed with one hundred elite soldiers and three hundred county warriors to take a boat north.

On the way, Gao Cheng kept receiving news from Mizhu that hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans had passed through Yanzhou and poured into Xuzhou, and this gang of rebels attacked the county seat along the road, and many small families and cities were looted. Even Zhang's dock fort near Pengcheng was breached, with heavy casualties.

Among them, Zhang Zhao, the most outstanding son of the Zhang family, broke through the siege with a longbow and disappeared.

"Pengcheng Zhang Zhao, he was almost killed by the Yellow Turban rebels?"

After Gao Cheng heard the news, his heart couldn't help jumping, Zhang Zhao, one of the two Zhangs in Jiangdong, was not inferior to Xun Yu's talent as a prime minister. It would be a pity if he died!

The merchant ship passed through Huaishui and turned into Surabaya, and Gao Cheng saw that there were a large number of displaced people displaced by the war on the shore, and Pengcheng was the seat of Xuzhou and could not be lost. The officers and soldiers in the city were attacked by the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the defense was very tight.

The Yellow Turbans were repeatedly attacked, and began to wreak havoc on the surrounding cities for food and grass, and a large number of the strong were coerced, leaving only some old and weak people who escaped by chance, wanting to cross Surabaya to Xiapi to survive.
