It has been a week since the fall of the Yellow Turban, Xu Qi was rewarded by Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others because of his meritorious work in suppressing bandits, and was awarded by the emperor as General Fubo. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, in terms of Xu Qi's merits and qualifications, this kind of reward was simply a blessing from his ancestral tomb and eight lifetimes of cultivation, and he wanted Amitabha Buddha to thank God, but in fact, at this time, the rule of the Han Dynasty was already precarious and crumbling, coupled with the sale of Emperor Han Ling/official beard, the official positions of all sizes were no longer as valuable as before, almost in name only, equivalent to the "inflation" in the official position.

But in any case, Xu Jue still became a general and no longer a partial general, although this General Fubo is only a miscellaneous general.

General Fubo is an official position set up by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to crusade against South Vietnam, and it is about eight grades according to the rank.

What makes Xu Qi depressed is that nominally he is Chaisang Taishou, and the imperial court also issued the Taishou seal, but in fact, Chaisang is not in the hands of the imperial court at all, but is occupied by the remnants of the Yellow Turban, so the imperial court means, Xu Jue, now make you a Fubo general, if you want to be Chaisang Taishou, let me go and pacify the rest of Chaisang's party, if you can't calm it, you can watch it yourself.

On the way to Chaisang, nearly 2,000 people were recruited, mostly some strong men and homeless refugees who were admired, and now Xu Qi's subordinates have more than 6,000 people, and the road can be regarded as a mighty one.

Xu Qi thought that it was a bit difficult to capture a city with 6,000 people, after all, the general siege battle loss was about 4:1, and according to this trend, as long as there were 1,500 people defending the city, they had to fight all the people to break the city tragically, even if the city was defeated, it would be useless, and it seemed that they had to think of other ways.

I can't think of it for a while, and the ones who have a little strategy around them belong to Yang Zhi and Hua Rong, one is 52, the other is 64, Xu Qi said his concerns, and asked the two of them with a try-and-see attitude What is the plan, Hua Rong offered advice: "If you attack strongly, you will definitely suffer heavy casualties, you might as well try to lure the enemy." ”

When Xu Jue heard this, he thought it was a little interesting, so he asked, "But what kind of method do you say to lure the enemy?" ”

Hua Rong said: "If our army comes out in formation, the Yellow Turbans will hesitate and stick to the city; If only 500 soldiers were to pretend to attack the city, the thief army would definitely attack. ”

Yang Zhi listened to the loud voice and said: "I am willing to lead five hundred soldiers to attack the city." ”

Xu Jue smiled slightly: "Brother Huarong's plan is feasible, in my opinion, you might as well let the five hundred soldiers wear shabby clothes and have an untidy appearance, so as to confuse the enemy army, and let the soldiers insult, the thief has always been impetuous, and has few strategies, and he will definitely go out of the city after this stimulation." ”

Hua Rong listened to the worship: "The lord is wise, it's not as good as below." ”

Since Xu Jue became General Fubo and was crowned Taishou, Yang Zhihuarong changed his name to Xu Jue as the main prince.

Xu Jue then ordered: "Since Brother Yang volunteered, I will allocate five hundred sergeants to you, and try to show weakness to lure the enemy." ”

Yang Zhi gave up his hand, arranged it, and went to the city to provoke.

The five hundred sergeants stood in an untidy posture, their clothes and armor were incomplete, and they were insulted in the city.

The leader of the Yellow Turban was drinking and eating meat in the Taishou Mansion, with a big waist and a fierce appearance, and another seemed to be also a leader, with a medium stature and a goatee, who was also drinking with him.

Suddenly, I heard a report from the little soldier: "Report to the general, there is a blue-faced man in the city who led the officers and soldiers to insult us as a checkmate thief army, and scolded the general that you are a headless ghost." ”

When the yellow turban leader heard this, he was furious, slammed the table, jumped the wine and meat on the table to the ground, and scolded: "Straight thief, and let me Zhou Cang go to meet him!" ”

With that, he took a machete from the weapon rack next to him and rushed out.

The goatee man also rushed out with a knife and shouted, "Yuanfu is slow, wait for me to meet the officers and soldiers together." ”

The two rushed to the city tower, only to see Yang Zhi and five hundred soldiers in incomplete armor and crooked soldiers still insulting, Zhou Cang was suddenly furious, and scolded Yang Zhi: "Bold fanatics, with such a group of soft eggs to call for battle, and dare to call us and others as headless ghosts, it is really rampant!" There is a kind of fight with your grandfather Zhou Cang for hundreds of rounds. With that, he opened the city and rode out.

When he came to the outside of the city, Zhou Cang saw that Yang Zhi and the others were still looking like they were hanging out, and they didn't take him in their eyes at all, so he was angry and annoyed, raised his knife and pointed at Yang Zhi, and said viciously: "You green-faced man, you don't know anything, if you call me grandpa and kowtow three more times, grandpa, I will spare you from death." ”

Yang Zhi smiled confidently and said-for-tat: "You are a big man, but you don't know if you have the ability to use a real knife or a gun?" If you have real skills, why should you become a thief? ”

Zhou Cang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then recalled his gratitude: "If it weren't for the rescue of the great sage and good teacher, I am afraid that I would have died in the chaos of the army, so I served the great sage and good teacher and served as his deputy general to repay the grace of saving my life, but it's a pity......"

Then he looked hateful, "The great virtuous and good teacher died in Quyang City, I want to avenge him!" ”

When Yang Zhi heard this, he was kind and tempting: "Then do you know that the yellow turbans are looting everywhere, killing the people, and making the lives miserable?" ”

Zhou Cang was stunned, but gritted his teeth and said, "This is definitely not the original intention of the great sage and good teacher!" In any case, I have to avenge him! ”

Seeing that Zhou Cang was so resolute, Yang Zhi suddenly had a good impression of Zhou Cang: "It's a loyal man, but it's a pity that he's a little stubborn." ”

At that moment, he was moved by compassion, changed his killing thoughts, and said with a smile: "Zhuangman, the Sprinkle family sees that you are also a man, not as ignorant as other yellow turbans, and you have lost your conscience, it is better to surrender the officers and soldiers and serve the country." ”

When Zhou Cang heard this, he said angrily: "You want to talk nonsense, since the day of the death of the great sage and good teacher, I have been determined to avenge him, how can I be justified in surrendering the officers and soldiers?" "Then he will go forward and kill.

Yang Zhi stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "In this case, you and I might as well have a discussion." ”

Then he took out his own steel spear, Pu knife and the ancestral treasure knife on his waist in turn, and said: "The Sprinkle family uses these three weapons to fight with you, if you lose for a while, then I lose, I will let you slaughter, if I win all, you will listen to my dispatch, how about it?" ”

Zhou Cang laughed angrily: "Okay, you blue-faced man who doesn't know the height of the sky, how can you be so arrogant, let your grandfather Zhou teach you a lesson!" If you can win me, I'll be convinced! With that, he slapped his horse and rushed over.

Yang Zhi fought with Zhou Cang with a spear and a horse, Zhou Cang slashed first, Yang Zhi blocked with a horizontal gun, and said in his heart: "This man has some courage." ”

Then he bounced off the big knife, used all his might, and flew up and down a little steel gun dance, like a tiger going down the mountain, like a dragon going out to sea, Zhou Cang was dazzled by the direct look, and the parry was broken in less than a few times, Yang Zhi didn't want to take his life, so he deliberately released the water, and a shot was pumped horizontally at Zhou Cang's wrist, and with a "bell" sound, the big knife fell to the ground, leaving only the stunned Zhou Cang and a group of yellow scarves.

After this battle, Zhou Cang was half convinced of Yang Zhixin, but thinking that since he was ruthless in front, why should I be polite, so he said calmly: "I lost this round, let's come back to the second round!" ”

Yang Zhi smiled: "Of course! ”

Then he carried a Pu knife again, came to fight with Zhou Cang, the two of you come and go for more than ten rounds, and the winner or loser has been decided: I saw Yang Zhi see the move, and put a Pu Dao dance tiger and tiger wind, and Zhou Cang only had the share of parrying, and lasted for five or six rounds, Yang Zhi waved a knife and fanned Zhou Cang off the horse, so he was not embarrassed.

Yang Zhi smiled and asked, "Can you still come to the third round?" ”

"Of course!"

Zhou Cang, who fell to the ground, replied viciously, but in his heart he was convinced by Yang Zhi. After a short rest, he got up from the ground, picked up the big knife, patted off the dust on his body, climbed on the horse again, and was about to charge, but when he saw Yang Zhi dismount, he took out a short knife that was no more than four feet from his waist and put on a posture, immediately stopped the horse, and asked: "Do you plan to fight on foot?" ”

Yang Zhihao smiled: "As a military general, you should have several skills, you can charge on horseback, you can kill the enemy on foot, otherwise you will only have a martial artist!" ”

Zhou Cang was completely convinced of Yang Zhi, so he also dismounted, thinking to himself: "I want to see how he fights me with a four-foot short knife." ”

Yang Zhi rushed over first, turned over and slashed at Zhou Cang's shoulder, Zhou Cang hurriedly dodged sideways, but he dodged the knife, and then turned around, and swung at Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi bent down to dodge, and came to a gorgeous counterattack.

After a few rounds like this, Zhou Cang already knew that he was not Yang Zhi's opponent, so he simply raised the big knife and slashed at Yang Zhi's head, Yang Zhi flashed, shouted angrily, and slashed at Zhou Cang's blade, only to hear a "click", the blade was broken into two, Yang Zhi smiled: "Can you fight again?" ”

Zhou Cang abandoned the knife and bowed his hand: "I am willing to lose the gamble, I am willing to obey the general, and I am willing to obey the dispatch." ”

Yang Zhi picked up Zhou Cang, and Zhengse said: "I came to break the city on the order of the lord, and I should have attacked and killed the Yellow Turban, but seeing that you are kind and loyal, and have courage, I can't bear to kill you, and I want to ask the general if he is willing to surrender to our army?" ”

Zhou Cang hesitated for a moment: "I am willing to surrender, just let me go back to the city and discuss with my brothers." ”

Yang Zhi smiled: "Wait for the good news." ”

watched Zhou Cang go back.

Yang Zhi said next to him: "I'm afraid that this thief will never return." ”

Yang Zhi waved his hand, shook his head and said: "Don't worry about it, this person has the style of a big man, how can he be opportunistic and untrustworthy?" ”

But it was said that Zhou Cang entered the city and discussed with the goatee: "Yuan Jian, I think that the Han general is strong in martial arts, and he is not a person who discriminates against the Yellow Turban to kill everything, and he intends to persuade him to surrender, so I might as well wait to surrender." ”

The man known as Yuan Jian was surprised: "Yuan Fu doesn't avenge the death of the great sage and good teacher? ”

Zhou Cang paused, and said with a wry smile: "After this battle, I have changed my opinion, even if I want to take revenge on us, what can I do?" It's just that the wounds are busy, and if they don't surrender, the officers and soldiers will definitely flock to the city until the city is broken, and then we will be killed, and we will be captured, and it is better to surrender as soon as possible. ”

Yuan Jian sighed when he heard it and said: "Don't hide it from Yuanfu, in fact, I have already had this intention, but I am worried that you are bent on revenge and swear not to surrender, since you are willing to surrender, we can avoid the sword and surrender the city." ”

At that moment, he and the yellow scarves said: "Yuanfu and I decided to surrender the official army, this is for the good of the brothers, to avoid death, those who are willing to surrender will follow us and others, and those who do not want to surrender will allocate money and food to you from the treasury, and go back to your hometown." ”

When the yellow turbans heard this, they all said: "I will swear to follow the general to the death." ”

But no one left the team.

Zhou Cang was overjoyed, the reorganization of the soldiers and horses was completed, and the city was surrendered at the moment, and he bowed to Yang Zhi: "Zhou Cang Liao Hua led the troops to surrender!" ”

Yang Zhi was overjoyed and sent a pawn to report to Xu Qi.
