By the beginning of July, Gao Shun still had not received the emperor's reward, and he was very angry and called Li Qiang to discuss countermeasures. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After listening to Gao Shun's narration, Li Qiang said: "My lord, maybe because the road is impassable, the time will be delayed. ”

Gao Shun shook his head and said: "There are no yellow turbans in Bingzhou for the time being, and if you transfer to Bingzhou, you should have arrived a long time ago, and it has been almost two months since Zhang Bao was beheaded." ”

"What are your lord's plans?"

"I haven't come up with a specific strategy, I just feel that I can't wait so quietly, we must take some precautions, our emperor is not as mediocre as he seems, he is just forced by the pressure of the Shi family, and he can't do it, not to mention anything else, the act of selling officials is a stroke of genius, and it is a big blow to the Shi family."

Li Qiang smiled: "It seems that it is correct for the lord to let go of Zuo Zhangba some time ago. ”

Gao Shun fell into deep thought, Li Qiang's words made him grasp the inspiration, letting go of Zuo Zhangpachi was just an immature idea at that time, if it were now, he would definitely not let them go again.

Now Gao Shun is thinking about how to establish his Yellow Turban forces and absorb more remnants of the Yellow Turban Army for his use.

As for the candidate, he is ready to release one of the guards in the system and let him take on this burden, with his support behind him, there is no shortage of food, weapons, armor, etc., and he can definitely become the most powerful of the remnants of the Yellow Turban.

In addition, he had to find a way to save Bocai from being attacked by fire and defeating him, so that the siege of Changshe would continue to last, and the imperial army would do nothing.

Since the imperial court did not issue a document on the formation of the righteous army, the strength of the officers and soldiers of the imperial court today is much weaker than in history, and this is a good opportunity for him to take advantage of.

Be sure to secretly support the Yellow Turban Army and strive for the greatest interests for him personally.

Seeing Gao Shun smiling so brightly, Li Qiang asked, "Lord, have you figured out a way?" ”

"I want to send an escort to the Taihang Mountains to organize a Yellow Turban Army, and gradually absorb the remnants of the Yellow Turbans as our secret force."

Li Qiang frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Lord, good idea, didn't my father-in-law hand over the control of the Lingxiao Mountain base to you?" It happened to be used to activate that base, and anyway, the large amount of food and other wealth stored in it was just used to win over the remnants of the Yellow Turbans. ”

Gao Shun smiled: "Yes, when the time comes, you will use the jade talisman to forge your father-in-law's last words, and you will consider yourself the future orthodox leader of the Yellow Turban." ”

"Yes, my lord, when the time comes, you can grant him the Nine Scepters, and you can rightfully take over the remnants of the forces."

Gao Shun was very tempted by this method, you must know that in history, Zhang Yan, the leader of the Montenegrin Army, directly controlled hundreds of thousands of people and indirectly controlled millions of people, which was a force to be reckoned with.

And the Lingxiao Mountain base is less than 200 miles away from Julu County, which is convenient for support.

"Lord, the strength of a single escort is a little weak, do you want to send some other members, such as Pei Yuanshao or Zhou Cang and others?"

"I won't send anyone else for the time being, I will send a few more junior civilian and junior military attaches to assist him, and send him a group of senior infantry, junior infantry and junior cavalry as a team, plus there is sufficient food and other materials, and it will definitely develop rapidly."

However, Li Qiang mentioned Zhou Cang, which allowed him to refine another plan.

Zhou Cang was born as a smuggled salt seller, and he had developed a good body, able to travel 800 miles a day, and his arms had the strength of a thousand catties, so he was just arranged to be a task that he was good at.

So he sent someone to invite Pei Yuanshao and prepared to let him go to Xiatao County, let him temporarily take the 12 infantry under the jurisdiction of Zhou Cang, let Zhou Cang come to Guangzong for a trip, and hand over important tasks to him.

Now Pei Yuanshao has not been asked to lead the troops, and his cavalry is just an empty name.

Although the 12 Tun infantry under the jurisdiction of Zhou Cang was originally the Yellow Turban Army led by him, the military Hou and the chief officer were all sent by Gao Shun, and they controlled this army very well.

Pei Yuanshao arrived, saluted and asked, "Lord, what are your orders?" ”

"Wen Shao, are you still used to it here?"

"Lord, life here is very good, and the war horses rewarded by the lord are also very good, but there are few things to do, and it is uncomfortable to be idle."

"Haha, I originally wanted you to take a break and adjust your mentality, in that case, there is just a job for you to do."

Pei Yuanshao was overjoyed and said, "Please ask the lord to command." ”

"Do you know Zhou Cang?"

"I am Sect Leader Zhang's bodyguard, Zhou Cang is the general of General Digong, I have met a few times, and I am not bad."

Gao Shun arranged: "Okay, you prepare immediately, go to Xiatao County, temporarily take over the 12 tun infantry under the jurisdiction of Zhou Cang, and let Zhou Cang come to Guangzong as soon as possible, I have something important for him to do." ”

"Yes, my lord!"

"Send a team of cavalry from my escort to escort you, and then let them escort Zhou Cang to come."

"Yes, my lord!"

Pei Yuanshao knew the secret of Li Qiang and Gao Shun and Zhang Jiao, coupled with Zhang Ning's relationship, and now he is loyal to Gao Shun, and Gao Shun rewarded him with war horses and armor, he liked it very much, although he was appointed as a cavalry candidate at the beginning, and now it is not bad to temporarily lead 12 infantry.

After Pei Yuanshao left, Li Qiang asked, "Lord, when will you arrange for someone to go to the Lingxiao Mountain base?" ”

Gao Shun smiled: "Haha, it's not in a hurry now, you have to wait until you kill Zhang Liang before you can justifiably play the banner, otherwise it will be easy to expose your stuffing; Now let's get rid of what is in front of us. ”

"Why did the lord invite Zhou Cang to come?"

"I'm going to send him to Yingchuan to support Bocai, don't let him lose too quickly, otherwise it will be very bad for us."

Li Qiang retorted: "Lord, you are worried too long-term, the news that came back shows that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were besieged by Bocai in Changshe, and the official army was at a disadvantage, if they supported Bocai again, in case Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were eliminated by Bocai, their prestige would rise sharply, and it would have a great negative impact on their future plans." ”

"You can't just look at the surface, even if the Yellow Turbans have the advantage, it doesn't change the essence of a rabble they are; Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are both experienced veterans, Bocai is not an opponent, and after the officers and soldiers stabilize, they will definitely fight back, if Bocai loses too quickly, it will be unfavorable to us. ”

Li Qiang thought for a while and said: "If Bocai is defeated, the Yellow Turban Army in Yuzhou will be defeated like a mountain and scattered; In that case, Yuzhou and Yanzhou will be quickly pacified, which is really not good for us. ”

"Yes, there are no other influential Yellow Turban forces in Yuzhou and Yanzhou, only Bocai is still a little level."

Li Qiang suggested again: "Lord, in that case, I feel that I should inform Fang Liang, don't wipe out Bu Ji, it's best to drive him to Yanzhou, and then take advantage of the chaos to absorb the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou, strengthen their strength, and give the court a headache." ”

"Haha, I've already sent him a letter, temporarily surround Bu Ji in Licheng, don't rush to attack, and wait for the situation to be clear."

Li Qiang also suggested: "My lord, if Bu Ji is expelled to Yanzhou, then Jizhou and Qingzhou will be connected, and we can trade with them through Licheng, and the treasures they have seized can be exchanged for food, salt, and weapons that they urgently need from us, and we will all be happy for each other." ”

Gao Shun smiled mysteriously: "Hehe, don't rush, take your time, wait until the end of July, if there is no reward yet, then start more plans to put pressure on the emperor." ”

"Hehe, the lord thinks long-term."
