Zhang Chun, who led the order, sent a personal guard, and sent orders to the major cities. Zhang Jujun, who was ordered, carried out it thoroughly, especially the remnants of the Yellow Turban, burning, killing and looting without stopping. Even if the powerful families who take the initiative to hand over their grain, grass and money, there are many who cannot escape the disaster of extermination.

"Hahaha... It's all mine, it's all mine! "Zhang Chunjun wreaked havoc in the city, doing all kinds of evil. In addition to handing in a lot, the soldiers also had unusually plump pockets.

"Bandits, robbers!" The patriarch of the family looked at his brother who was ruthlessly slaughtered and shouted weakly: "We have already handed over the grain, grass, and money, why do we have to kill them in a hurry, why? ”

"Why?" A soldier still wrapped in a yellow scarf came to this person, lifted the old man to the ground with one kick, and roared angrily: "Know anger today? In the past, when we were poor, how could you keep your hands? There are gods three feet above the ground, and the retribution is not happy, Minghu? ”

"Haha... What about bullying? The old man was not ashamed: "When the army of the Han Dynasty breaks through you, you will not be able to die well!" ”

"It's better to die than to live!" The soldier drew the long knife at his waist, stopped talking nonsense with this person, and slashed it down: "Phew! ”

In a secret room in the city of the plains.

"Patriarch Wang, our family must resist, even if they are wronged, such thieves will endanger our family, and please ask Patriarch Wang to take the lead, many of our families are brave, and they should cooperate with the officials and soldiers outside the city to kill Zhang Chun and Zhang Jucai!"

"What Patriarch Li said is what the old man thought!" The old man surnamed Wang replied: "I still have to work hard for the patriarchs, I have recently started to organize the family, and in two days our rebel army will survive!" ”

"It's just the royal patriarch, how can we inform the two generals outside the city, Xiang Ao and Gongsun Zhan? Zhang Chun is now guarding the gates of the city to allow anyone to enter and exit. ”

"You don't need to worry, there is a way to get old, just wait for the army to start in the morning in two days!"

"That's great!" "Tired of the royal patriarch!" Several old people in the house sighed.

"Lord, General Gongsun!" Jiao Mengzhong rushed from outside the tent.

"What kind of system, this is the big tent of the Chinese army, how can you be reckless!" After all, it's not just his own army, Xiang Ao saw that Jiao Meng was so rude, and shouted angrily.

"Brother Fengyuan doesn't have to be angry, General Jiao must have military intelligence!" Seeing this, Gongsun Zhan also persuaded as a good person.

"What?" Xiang Ao still looked at Jiao Meng viciously.

Seeing that Xiang Ao was angry, Jiao Meng's heart was worried, and he said in a trembling voice: "Someone in the city managed to throw out a handbook!" ”

"Huh?!" Gongsun Zhan was already anxious, and when he saw new information, he hurriedly snatched the handwritten book from Jiao Meng's hand and took a closer look. After a while, his brows furrowed, and he handed the handbook to Xiang Ao.

"Brother Bogui, do you think this handwriting is credible?"

"If it is credible according to common sense, in recent days, Zhang Chun has wantonly collected wealth in the city, robbed grain and grass, and slaughtered the powerful family, and it is reasonable for the powerful family to resist. It's just that Zhang Chun is not an ordinary rebel, I'm afraid there is fraud! ”

"Ao is also so worried!"

"Report!" Before the two of them could think about it clearly, Sun Fan, the grandfather outside the account, shouted loudly.

"Report it!"

"Two generals, there is a handwritten letter in the city!"

Xiang Ao snatched the book in his hand and read it carefully, then let go of his brows, chuckled and handed it to Gongsun Chan for review.

"Brother Bogui, the information is accurate, you can do it!"

"What Brother Fengyuan said is very true!" After reading the handwritten book, Gongsun Chan also smiled. There is nothing else in the handwriting, only the tokens issued by the imperial court when the county guards take over, and no one knows. When the two rushed to the plain, the imperial court had already sent the corresponding tokens so that the two could regain their lost territory.

"Lord, Zhang Chun was once the minister of state, I'm afraid..."Xi Zhong took the handwritten letter handed by Xiang Aogong Sun Zan and said worriedly after reading it.

"If the information is false, I'll make a plan!" Xiang Ao was not worried, and his eyes were even more determined.

"Hahaha... What Brother Fengyuan thinks is what I think! When Gongsun Zhan saw Xiang Ao say this, he knew that Xiang Ao and his mind were in touch, and he thought of one place!

"Hahaha..."Xiang Ao also laughed, it is difficult to know himself in life.

And the drama on the side is not a mediocre person, and after a while, he understood what the two meant, and admired Xiang Ao and Gongsun Zan in his heart.

The number of troops is limited, and it is impossible for the two to spread out the battlefield and attack all the county seats. After discussing, the two divided their troops, intending to recover the plains and Qinghe.

It was night, the plain city was quiet, there was no noise of soldiers and armor during the day, the crying and shouting had temporarily stopped, and the moonlight of the full moon in the night sky made the already cool night of early spring even more chilly. It was a gentle breeze, but for some reason it was a little biting.

The full moon is getting lower and lower, and it seems that it is a little unbearable, and gradually falls into the distant mountains. "Beep...""Bang..."Suddenly, a fireball rose into the air and exploded over the plain.

"Kill!" If you want to see the signal, raise your troops to kill Pingyuan City, and the same is true in Qinghe Ganling City.

At the same time as Xiang Ao attacked, the shouts of killing in the city behind the gate of Pingyuan City suddenly rose. Xiang Ao and the others were not very worried that they were traitors before, so the two did not go up with their entire army, but only led more than 1,000 elite horsemen to the city gate.

Perhaps it was because the wealthy family was much better fed than the refugees in the rebel army, and the defenders on the city gate were all killed by the raiding family in less than a moment, and they opened the city gate very quickly. Looking at the rumbling and slowly opening city gate, Xiang Ao no longer hesitated, and ordered the guards to release a signal and ordered the whole army behind him to press.

"Kill!" Rushing to the city gate, Xiang Ao distinguished the rebels and rebels according to the handwritten agreement, and occupied the city gate of the plain.

"The Han army has broken the city! Quickly inform the general and send reinforcements! After the general defending the city was shocked, he finally woke up and looked at the Han cavalry occupying the city gate, and his heart was very anxious and afraid.

After the herald departed, he commanded the rebels who were pouring in from all sides and defended them with all his might. He knew that if the city was broken, as a thief, he would only die.

"Zhongda guards the city gate, and the rest of the people follow Ben into the city!"

"No!" Gao Shun led the 'trapped' camp to the city gate and took over the responsibility of occupying the city gate. Although Zhang Chun's rebels were not as fierce as the Xiongnu Xianbei and other tribes, and they were not as vulnerable as the Yellow Turban refugees, they were like the commander of the regular army, which gave Xiang Ao a headache.

It is different from the Xianbei Xiongnu and other tribes who sacrificed their lives to fight, and it is also different from the indiscriminate escape of the Yellow Turban refugees after the city was broken. Zhang Chunjun, under the command of various departments, led by the commander of the army and the chief of the army, engaged in street battles with Xiang Ao's army in the city. If you can fight, you can fight, and if you can't fight, you can escape or surrender, which makes it extremely difficult for Xiang Ao to do. In the end, in desperation, Xiang Ao ordered that when the enemy army met, as long as the other party did not lay down his arms, he could only kill all of them regardless of whether he surrendered or not, leaving no one alive.

Xiang Ao even ordered Jiang Yan to lead the heavy cavalry into the city, and those who carried weapons were killed without mercy, and the heavy cavalry lined up, and swept the remnants of the city in a dignified manner.

"Lord, there is no one in the palace!" Kill to the mansion, and report back to Xiang Ao after the personal guard searched.

"No one? Can Zhang Chun see it? Xiang Ao frowned and asked.

"My lord, I just tortured and questioned the prisoners, and Zhang Chun led a few guards to flee to the Bohai Sea at nightfall last night."

"Rats!" Xiang Ao was slightly angry, stomped his spear on the stone slab and said angrily. When the soldiers behind Xiang Ao saw the stone slabs shattered into powder under the spear, they all held their breath and did not dare to answer.

"Clear the traitors in the city, and kill them without mercy!" Although Xiang Ao had compassion, Zhang Chunjun's atrocities made Xiang Ao angry. All the way from the city, I saw not only the white silk fluttering in front of the family's powerful family, but even the ordinary people let it go.

"Then order the scouts to explore along the Bohai Sea to see if they can see Zhang Chun's figure!" Although Zhang Chun has fled for several hours, Xiang Ao also has a little luck in his heart, maybe Zhang Chun did not go far.

"No!"

Under the leadership of Gao Shun, Jiang Yan and others, the soldiers cleared the traitors in the city, and Xiang Ao found the remaining officials in the plain mansion, and handed over many matters such as pacifying the people in the recovered plain to him, and the angry Xiang Ao really had no intention of dealing with some miscellaneous matters.

If it was just a rebel, Xiang Ao also felt understandable, and his personal desires and ambitions were high. But Zhang Chun stretched out the butcher's knife to the innocent people, and Xiang Ao planned to arrest Zhang Chun and execute him to death to vent his resentment.

Zhang Chunjun, who knew that there was no way to survive the rebellion, also desperately broke through the siege, trying in vain to find a glimmer of life. There are indeed too many rebels, even if they are killed, they will not be able to be disposed of in a while, and there are many who escaped in a panic, Xiang Ao has limited forces and it is difficult to pursue, but he just sent the captured rebels to the guillotine and executed them in public to set an example.

"Brother Bogui, Ao is incompetent, he failed to kill Zhang Chun and let him escape!"

"Brother Fengyuan doesn't have to blame himself." Gongsun Chan patted Xiang Ao's arm and comforted: "This person is cunning, and he is afraid of death, and he blames Zhan for not reminding Brother Feng Yuan." ”

"Can Zhang Ju have a subdued method?"

"That's inevitable, Zhang Ju can't be Zhang Chun's chess pieces, and under the general situation, Zhang Chun will definitely leave it alone. Zhang Ju has no talent, and cleaning up Zhang Ju is just like stepping on an ant. Gongsun Chan didn't have any pride on his face, and even felt a little humiliated.

Xiang Ao knew what Gongsun Zan was thinking, so he chuckled and said, "Hehe, it's 'hard work Brother Bogui!'" ”

"It's ridiculous like this, Brother Fengyuan is too unkind!" Gongsun Zan glanced at Xiang Ao helplessly and continued: "Zhang Chun has fled, he must be going to Liaoxi, although Zhang Chun's rebels have suffered a lot of losses, but when they return to Liaoxi, they will definitely gather troops and horses in a short time." ”

"If you need it, you can set off to rush back to Yuyang, and recruit troops to mediate with you in Beiping." Gongsun Zhan had no choice but to leave, and said reluctantly: "The remnants of the rebels here still have to work hard to clear up Fengyuan!" ”

"Don't worry, Xiao Xiao'er, it will only take a while."

"So don't do it for the time being, when the two brothers get together again, they will definitely drink and talk!"

"That's nature!" Xiang Ao involuntarily came to Gongsun Zhan, stretched out his hands, hugged Gongsun Zhan hard, and said, "Brother, take care!" ”

Gongsun Chan was stunned for a while, although the two were confidants of each other, they were only gentlemen's friends, and they did not really call each other. After being stunned, Gongsun Chan was overjoyed and laughed: "Hahaha... With such a virtuous brother, I am also blessed. ”

"Ao has a brother, and it is also a blessing for Ao!" Xiang Ao also looked at Gongsun Zhan, his heart was full of thoughts, and he couldn't make sense of it.

Everyone behind the two of them was also pleased and chuckled, whether it was Xiang Ao's subordinates Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Jiang Yan, etc., or Gongsun Zhan's generals, they all agreed with each other. It's a good thing that the relationship between the two is so good! The so-called heroes cherish each other!
