Chapter 158: Take Control of the Cottage
After settling Fang Mao's affairs, Zhao Yun's prestige in the county will be unmatched, and Zhao Yun will truly take charge of Zhao County at that time.
To get more rapid development, a stable Zhao County is very necessary, if even this cannot be guaranteed, how can we have greater achievements when the troubled times come.
The next day, Zhao Yun led a thousand soldiers to the cottage of the Yellow Turban.
I have to say that Bai Rao still has advantages in choosing cottages, cottages are easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to attack the cottages, there will definitely be a lot of casualties.
Although Bai Rao was a little miserable at this time, he still persuaded under the cottage according to what he promised yesterday.
At first, Bai Rao led the Yellow Turban to break through Wu'an, which was a great encouragement to the Yellow Turban, but the good times did not last long.
The Han army broke through Wu'an, which was occupied by the Yellow Turban, and even captured Bai Rao alive, which was a great blow to the Yellow Turban of the cottage, with Bai Rao in the cottage, even in the face of the attack of the Han army, the Yellow Turban would have more confidence, but now the situation has changed dramatically.
The power of the Han army in the war was soon spread among the yellow turbans through the mouth of the yellow turbans who fled back to the cottage, which made the yellow turbans have a lot of fear of the Han army.
For a while, people in the cottage were panicked, although many yellow turban leaders stood up to stabilize the situation, the effect was still not very good.
Bai Rao came forward to persuade, and with the guarantee of the Han army, many Yellow Turban soldiers gave up resistance and embarked on the road of confronting the imperial court, which is not what most people want to see, after becoming a traitor, it is difficult to wash away, Bai Rao developed the power of the Yellow Turban, and plundered a lot of villages in the surrounding Zhao County, as for whether the people really want to take refuge in the Yellow Turban, it is not important to Bai Rao, what he wants to see is the growth of the Yellow Turban power.
More and more yellow scarves couldn't resist such temptation and walked off the cottage.
After seeing this scene, the rest of the Yellow Turban soldiers who wanted to persevere to the end were worth following most of the choices to surrender to the Han army.
Bai Rao commanded the Yellow Turban of Zhao County, leaving a lot of prestige in Zhao County, and even brought a lot of Yellow Turban forces in Zhao County to be annexed by Bai Rao, which reduced a lot of trouble for Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun gave an order, and the sergeants of the army went towards the Yellow Turban camp, they didn't expect that the cottage where Bai Rao was located would be so smooth.
After entering the cottage, the soldiers quickly took control of the entire cottage.
The cottage of 5,000 people is huge.
When Zhao Yun saw the place where the Yellow Turban was hoarding money, food, and materials, he was slightly shocked, he didn't expect Bai Rao to loot so many materials in Zhao County.
When carrying the materials, the officers and men in the army were extremely excited, these things were obtained from the hands of the Yellow Turban, and the prestige of the Zhao County army would definitely spread in the nearby counties.
Although the Yellow Turban in Jizhou has been pacified, there are many Yellow Turban troubles in Jizhou, such a thing is inevitable, and it is not a simple matter to really pacify the Yellow Turbans in the territory, but now Zhao Yun led the army of Zhao County to do it.
This kind of record is also the pride of the officers and men in the army, after returning to Zhao County, they have more capital to show off, what is more than the victory on the battlefield, can the officers and men in the army be encouraged.
Looking at the sergeant who could not hide his joy, Zhao Yun showed a satisfied smile, the victory of the war will make the soldiers in the army have more trust and dependence on him, and his prestige in the army will also be improved to a greater extent.
It's just that the cottage where Bai Rao hoarded grain and grass was even more sufficient than the previous warehouse in Zhao County, this situation made Zhao Yun inevitably feel more.
The Yellow Turbans plundered the people and got a lot of materials, but in fact, it must be Zhao County that was affected, and the people of Zhao County could only follow the Yellow Turbans after losing their houses and fields, and in the long run, the number of people would only get smaller and smaller.
Looking at the grain and grass baggage that had been hoarded with great difficulty and was transported away by the soldiers of Zhao County, Bai Rao showed regret, these grain and grass baggage were not so simple to get, and there were a lot of things involved, although the number of Yellow Turbans was large, if Zhao County's army was determined to exterminate the Yellow Turbans, Bai Rao wanted to run such a large cottage, it was basically impossible, and it also required the officials of Zhao County to cooperate in secret.
Zhao Jun's family is also afraid of the Yellow Turban, mainly where the Yellow Turban passes, the wealthy family will suffer great hardships, and the materials hoarded in their family will become the capital of the Yellow Turban's strength.
The wealthy family is reluctant to provoke the Yellow Turban, but the family also needs to develop, and if it is secretly involved with the Yellow Turban, it seems to be a good choice, which is also the secret move of some families in Zhao County.
As for whether there are officials in Zhao County who sincerely serve the people, there may be, but they have not yet been discovered.
"What? General Bai is a little unwilling? Zhao Yun asked instead.
Bai Rao shook his head.
Zhao Yundao: "These things are all from the people, the Yellow Turban keeps saying that it is for the people, how many innocent people have lost their homes because of the Yellow Turban's rebellion." ”
Bai Rao was silent when he heard this, if it was in the past, he would definitely not take such remarks to heart, the rise of the Yellow Turban is precisely to overthrow the corrupt Han and let those officials who oppress the people be punished as they deserve.
But the current Yellow Turbans have indeed violated their original intentions, they have extended their butcher knives to the people, and they will do whatever it takes to benefit them, and the Yellow Turbans in various places lack command at all, even if they can continue to influence the rule of the Han Dynasty, it is impossible to do more.
In the past, Zhang Jiao rose up with millions of responders, but now, it has fallen into a situation where the dragons are leaderless.
Snatching Wu'an from the hands of the Yellow Turban, and taking advantage of the situation to exterminate the cottage where Bai Rao was located, Zhao Yun led the army towards Handan.
After clearing the yellow scarf, the next step is to stabilize his position in Zhao County, even if Fang Mao and others have been operating in Zhao County for many years, at this time, Zhao Yun has a hole card in his hand that is enough to kill Fang Mao and others.
And these families who are secretly involved in the yellow turban cannot be forgiven.
The influence of the family is quite large, and Zhao Yun naturally knows about it, but when Fang Mao and Bai Rao secretly negotiated and wanted to take his life, the two sides had already come to the opposite side, and there was absolutely no possibility of easing.
Zhao Yun didn't want to just become a Taishou with too much power at hand, what he needed to do was to stabilize his position in the shortest possible time, so that his prestige would spread all over Zhao County, and after the order was issued, no one would dare to disobey it.
