Volume 1 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 110 Returning to Yang Zhai

That night, after completing the task of destroying the headquarters of Taiping Dao in Beijing and capturing Ma Yuanyi alive, Guo Bin led the Yuecai battalion back to the station, and galloped towards Yingchuan with 1,200 people before dawn. Among the 1,200 people, 1,000 were recruits recruited from the homeless people, 100 were veterans of the Yue Cavalry Battalion, and the remaining 100 were 100 special soldiers that Guo Bin brought with him when he entered Beijing.

Guo Bin knew that Ma Yuanyi had made up his mind, and the reason why he didn't want to run away was because he didn't want to be like Zhang Jian. Guo Bin didn't wait to see what kind of punishment Ma Yuanyi would get, because he knew from the beginning that it was a car split.

The so-called car splitting is to tie the head and limbs of a person to five chariots respectively, put a horse on it, and pull it in different directions, so that the human body is torn into six pieces, so it is called a car split. Sometimes, when this kind of punishment is carried out, the car is not used, but the five oxen or horses are directly used to pull it, so the car split is commonly known as the five oxen or five horses to divide the corpse.

Such a cruel punishment would not have torn off a person's limbs and head with the rapid pull of a galloping horse, and how painful would such a swift death be? Therefore, the leaders of peasant revolts, whom the rulers hated, usually cut meat with blunt knives, drove oxen or pack horses, and pulled people apart. Maybe the head is pulled off before the limbs are torn off, and then you watch your body be torn into several pieces. At this time, people will feel pain, and they will not die for a while, and this pain may be difficult to explain unless they have experienced it personally.

Guo Bin was not interested in seeing how Liu Hong and He Jin tortured and killed Ma Yuanyi, but he heard afterwards that Ma Yuanyi didn't say a word from beginning to end, didn't cry, didn't plead, and even didn't even snort when he tore off the head of Bai Huahua's spine.

Guo Bin led the army to Yangzhai, and there was no abnormality in Taiping Road along the way. Presumably, it will take a certain amount of time from Ma Yuanyi's arrest to the news reaching Jizhou, and then to the high-level of Taiping Dao to react and decide to act in advance. However, even if he knew that with the ability of Zhao Yun and Xu Shu, Yang Zhai would definitely be fine, but Guo Bin still didn't dare to slack off, because once Yang Zhai was broken, he would be considered to have lost all his foundation, and all his efforts since his emergence would be wiped out.

As for the sergeants recruited from among the homeless people in the Vietnamese cavalry battalion, there was nothing to worry about. After all, when they were recruited, they said that they were going to Youzhou, so everyone was prepared to be separated from their families. And the Taiping Road in Beijing was caught, killed, and the central army was in charge, if you want to say that the world is in chaos, the safest is Luoyang, the capital division. And under Guo Bin's arrangement, the family eats well, dresses warmly, and the worries are gone, and the rest is the heart of making contributions.

This time, Chen Zhi will also return to Yangzhai with Guo Bin, while the little sister of the Chen family is recovering from a serious illness and is not suitable for traveling, so she recuperates in Guofu in Beijing. With Huzi and others taking care of him, there must be no surprises. As for Dong Xing'er's nurse group, she naturally has to accompany her back to Yangzhai.

The veterans of the 100 Yue cavalry battalion were originally unscrupulous disciples of officials and wealthy businessmen, and they wanted to come to the Yue cavalry camp to make a living. But since following Guo Bin to exterminate the Taiping Dao headquarters, not only did the Son of Heaven, Uncle Guo, and Guo Bin be rewarded with money, but their families were also praised by the imperial court, so they all wanted to follow the captain of the horse to make a career as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

The group stayed overnight, marched rapidly, and arrived in Yangzhai County in only eight days.

However, the situation in Yangzhai County does not seem to be as peaceful and peaceful as Guo Bin had predicted beforehand. When Guo Bin led the army to twenty miles away from Yangzhai, he reported that Yangzhai County was under siege, and the mountains were full of thieves wrapped in yellow scarves and ragged clothes. Each of them carried sharpened sticks, or farm tools wrapped with iron sheets, some with kitchen knives, some with wooden bows and arrows, and so on.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, why did Taiping Dao actually raise things in advance?

When Guo Bin first came to such a major event, he naturally did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly convened everyone to discuss.

Zhang Fei has been in a state of extreme excitement along the way, shouting: "No matter how much he is, as long as the lord gives me five hundred military horses, the custody can disperse these rabble!" ”

Guan Yu said: "Yi Dexiu should be reckless, and major events in the army are not child's play." The thieves are powerful, so they must be cautious, and the lord and the military advisers must make up their minds before they can act. ”

Guo Bin listened, nodded secretly in his heart, to say that Guan Yu still has a big picture, this time he returned to the army, he led the army, and the command was determined, which showed his style of a general.

And the sergeants under Guo Bin, because they have received more than a week of queue practice, their discipline is also remarkable. Although it is far from being as good as the army of Fulong Villa, it is better to have more combat experience, and most of them are people from Jizhou, Bingzhou, and even Youzhou, who are tall and healthy, and have been accompanied by cattle and horses since childhood, and are good at riding.

In fact, although the rapid march is due to the urgency of the military situation, why is it not military training? After the hardships of the eight-day march, the Yue cavalry battalion has been reborn, and these people come and go one by one like the wind, and the order is forbidden, which is already a bit of a cavalry.

At that moment, Guo Bin said to Zhang Fei: "Yide is a little restless, what Yun Chang said is true, now you and I are no longer heroes fighting in the rivers and lakes, but generals who are responsible for the lives of all the armies under them, and a wrong decision by you and me is likely to cause injuries or tragic deaths to our subordinates." They have followed us for their loyalty, and we will do our best to bring them back with all their beards. Prudence and step-by-step action are not enough, how can they be reckless and harm their lives? ”

In the last few sentences, Guo Bin had already put on a straight face, and Zhang Fei had to promise to say yes, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

Since ancient times, the so-called: "A thousand troops are easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find", and the lives of ordinary people have always been the most worthless and least valued. And Guo Bin is young and has to be appointed as a cavalry captain, but he can say this, which shows his benevolence.

Guo Jia was secretly funny, this Zhang Fei was the master who was not afraid of heaven and earth, that is, Guo Quan's master with a bad stomach, Zhang Fei could cure him to death, even Guan Yu, although Zhang Fei respected his martial arts, he was not afraid of him. Only Guo Bin, no need to stare, as long as he speaks in a stern tone, Zhang Fei is as docile as a domestic cat.

It's not that Guo Bin is too serious on weekdays, with Zhang Fei's temperament that is not afraid of heaven and earth, Lu Bu, who is the first in the world of martial arts in history, came, and he didn't let it go. And to make him fearful, it has to be convinced. Although Zhang Fei has not served Guo Bin for a long time, these days, he has been exposed to it, and he naturally admires Guo Bin in his heart.

Xi Zhicai sighed in his heart, if he admires Guo Binzhi, from himself down, who is not like this? However, this admiration is not blind worship, because Guo Bin does have the virtues and talents to be admired and admired.

First of all, Guo Bin is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. At the invitation of Ma Yuanyi, Chu Yan was let go and said "righteousness".

Secondly, Guo Bin is outstanding. Whether it is to provide relief for work, to treat tens of thousands of displaced people, or to train in a queue formation to quickly improve the discipline of the troops, or to be in a high position at a young age, ordered by the Son of Heaven to lead the army back to Yangzhai to suppress bandits, all show Guo Bin's talent and superiority.

Third, Guo Bin has lofty ambitions. is different from the common county officials who are full of fat brains, Guo Bin's mind is not how to get promoted and make a fortune, not his own selfish interests. What Guo Bin is concerned about is whether the people under his rule are happy and safe, with sufficient food and clothing. What he is concerned about is the life of the people in the world, the rise and fall of the Han nation, and the survival of the national bloodline. And the so-called Taiping Dao Zhang Jiao and his ilk, want to take advantage of the opportunity of the great drought in the world to rebel and claim the king's hegemony, compared with Guo Bin, it is the light of the fireflies compared to the bright moon, which is not comparable.

Xi Zhicai is convinced that if there is someone in the world who can help the building to fall and turn the tide at this time when the sea is flowing and the people are silent, it must be Guo Bin. He was the first to follow Guo Bin, no one knew Guo Bin better than him, and no one could see through Guo Bin better than him.

You said that Guo Bin is thoughtful and calculating, right? He could have done something unwise like letting Chu Yan go. You said that he was tendoned, stunned, Shi Lezhi, right? But he is far-reaching, and many of the arrangements are very meaningful, which makes people feel inexplicable.

Take the three hundred special sergeants that Guo Bin currently has the most useful under him, the reason why they were able to defect to Guo Bin was because they went to Guo's mansion in Beijing to make trouble. In the eyes of a scheming person like Xi Zhicai, Guo Bin spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on these people, is it really that he has no idea at all?

There are also 30,000 displaced people who rescued Yangzhai County at the beginning. The number of people registered in Yangzhai is only a little more than 70,000, and you say that relying on these small counties of more than 70,000 people, it is understandable to rescue three or five thousand displaced people. But Guo Bin was stunned that with a Yangzhai County Construction Co., Ltd., he gathered the strength of the county's wealthy families to properly resettle 30,000 displaced people. It was a thankless drudgery in the eyes of everyone at the beginning, but Guo Bin did it so beautifully.

Not only was the court appreciated, but in the hearts of the new residents of Xicheng District, Guo Bin seemed to be a reborn parent. Moreover, a cadre of old residents in Yangzhai felt that Guo Bin had done construction projects last year, and they got rid of the misfortune of becoming a homeless person one by one, and they also praised Guo Bin.

It can be said that the foundation of Guo Bin's current establishment is the reverence and trust of nearly 100,000 people in Yangzhai County. In the future, no matter who serves as the commander of Yangzhai County, if he dares to be unfavorable to Guo Bin and Fulong Villa, he does not want Guo Bin to speak, and Yangzhai County is proud of the rich gentry and down to the common people; In the army, from officers and colonels to logistics pawns, they can make their deaths have no place to be buried.

As long as these 100,000 residents are there, Yang Zhai will not be able to turn the sky upside down. Taiping Road couldn't do it at the beginning, and it can't do it now.

Xi Zhicai firmly believes this.

In February, Taizu returned from Beijing, and Taiping Dao raised a crowd to surround Yang Zhai.
