Chapter Seventy-Three: The Edict

The city gate of Mengxian County was cautiously opened and closed again, and vaguely, at the moment when the city gate opened and closed, you could see the soldiers behind the city gate, and the murderous atmosphere was pervasive.

This Liao Chun may not be top-notch in ability, but in terms of this caution, he is by no means like a person who died early, just such a character, why didn't he leave a name in history?

Ye Zhao was a little puzzled, talented but not able to leave his name in history, Ye Zhao believed that just like his previous life, how many people who were more powerful than himself died in front of him, and in the end, he always pursued the obscene development of himself in that decade-long human catastrophe, and became the last overlord.

But a cautious and talented person like Liao Chun has not left a mark on history, and it is a little unreasonable that such a person should live a long life.

Back in the army, Ye Zhao ordered the troops to be collected, and after the generals left, only Ding Li, Dian Wei and Qiu Chi were left, Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao hesitantly: "Lord, just give up the attack?" ”

"Our army is tired from fighting for a long time, give him time, but also give us time, and ......" Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Ding Li and said: "Order the three armies, as soon as the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, if Liao Chun does not surrender, he will attack the city immediately!" Hit him off guard. ”

"Uh......" Dian Wei scratched his head: "Since it is said to be three days, why do you want to attack in advance?" If you don't attack now, you can be caught off guard. ”

"Today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, isn't it three days?" Ye Zhao looked at the three of them, sat down and said: "And now that Liao Chun does not fully believe in me, the Yellow Turban Army in the city is the most vigilant time, if it is attacked at this time, even if it is captured, our army will suffer heavy losses, and it may not be able to conquer it, and it will be called a name of faithlessness." ”

"The momentum of the Yellow Turban Army can no longer be stopped, plus two days of slackness, even if Liao Chun doesn't believe it, ordinary soldiers will unconsciously slack off, it is an opportunity to break the enemy."

Still untrustworthy.

"It stands to reason that after noon the day after tomorrow, even if it is the third day, the official did not tell that Liao Chun how to count it as three days, maybe his understanding is a little different from mine, this can't say that I don't have faith, I can only say that they don't have enough understanding." At the end, Ye Zhao smiled and looked at everyone: "Let's go and prepare." ”

"Whoa!" Everyone glanced at Ye Zhao speechlessly, and each bowed down to take the order and retreated.

On the other side, when Liao Chun returned to the city, he was also relieved, and invited a yellow turban general in the city to talk to Ye Zhao, of course, Liao Chun didn't say anything about the Taiping Sect's discussion of this kind of demoralization.

"That Ye Zhao is as cunning as a fox, don't be gullible!" Du Yuan frowned.

"I thought so too." Liao Chun nodded and said: "In the past three days, you and I have worked harder, taking turns to defend the city, don't let that Ye Zhao have a chance!" ”

"Good!" Du Yuan agreed very simply, and the rest of the Yellow Turban thieves also responded to their orders, Liao Chun began to dispatch troops and arrange the defense of each city, the military discipline of the Yellow Turban Army was scattered, and Liao Chun did not have the elite around Liang Fa who had been trained or had really fought on the battlefield, and it was extremely difficult to arrange it for defense, and the existing generals were not enough to fully control the tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans in the city, Liao Hua could only select the strong Shangcheng to garrison, and the rest were responsible for patrolling the city and taking over the guards at any time.

Throughout the afternoon, the wind and waves were calm, Ye Zhao took the initiative to retreat ten miles to the village, Liao Chun secretly sent a horse to investigate, and found that Ye Zhao was really ready to set up camp and fight a protracted war.

The next day was still a calm day, the officers and soldiers began to do daily training in an orderly manner ten miles away from Mengxian County, there was occasional friction between the scouts and horses on both sides, but there was no intention of escalating into war, both sides were very restrained, the difference is that Ye Zhao also needed to consider the attitude of the surrounding yellow turbans, and set up Mingka secret posts on some key roads in various counties of Liangguo, first, to check the yellow scarves mixed in, and secondly, to pay attention to the dynamics of the surrounding yellow turbans, before Mengxian County was recovered, Ye Zhao could not free his hands to focus on a larger range, But early investigation is indispensable.

"Lord, General Huangfu Song has been defeated?" In the barracks, Qiu Chi looked at the official document that had just come from the imperial court, and frowned at Ye Zhao.

"Defeat?" Ye Zhao laughed: "Why didn't I see it?" ”

"On the fourth day, General Huangfu led the army out of Pingjin, the camp was not stable, and he was robbed by Bocai, and he was defeated, so he asked the court for help." Qiu Chi read the battle report again and said: "The imperial court ordered the surrounding counties to lead troops to support, and the lord was pointed. ”

"Don't worry, wait and see." Ye Zhao shook his head: "Look at how Chen Liu, Chen Guo and other places react, we are some distance from Yingchuan after all, and we have to divide troops to garrison, Mengxian County is not down, so we can't move rashly." ”

If it was the time when he was an otaku in his previous life, Ye Zhao didn't think there was anything strange about this period, but after ten years of the end of the life, this life is also a long-term battle, and Ye Zhao's angle and depth of looking at the problem are naturally different.

Huangfu Song is one of the only remaining famous generals in the Han Dynasty, Ye Zhao is naturally interested, and he has also seen his past combat experience, whether the elite of Luoyang can afford to bear the name of the elite will not be said for the time being, but Huangfu Song's ability is indeed qualified to be a famous general, and he was robbed of the camp, or a group of Yellow Turban Army, even if it is Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who have just debuted, Ye Zhao is not surprised, after all, geniuses also have a young age, Ye Zhao himself has experienced it, naturally I don't think Cao Cao was as eloquent as he was later, It takes experience to extend what you have learned to apply what you have learned.

But Huangfu Song has gone through this process of accumulation, and Huang Fu Song's marching style is also known for its stability, such a person was robbed by a group of yellow turban generals who were rough or even not familiar with the army, compared to this low probability of appearing, Ye Zhao is more inclined to Huang Fu Song to ask for something, as for what he wants, it is impossible to appear in the imperial edict, this needs to wait, look at the next move of the imperial court, according to Ye Zhao's guess, it is nothing more than asking for money and food or some political demands, what Huang Fu Song needs, Ye Zhao naturally does not know, but Ye Zhao felt that money and food should be secondary.

As for defeat......

Ye Zhao looked at the edict, and did not say how miserable Huangfu Song's defeat was, but insisted on waiting for help, indicating that although Huangfu Song was defeated, he still had the strength to fight, and Ye Zhao was now thinking about whether to destroy Huangfu Song's plan this time.

Anyway, this edict is not of a single nature, but is issued in groups, Ye Zhao is going to clean up Mengxian while looking at the reactions of other counties before making calculations
