Looking at the enthusiastic generals in front of him, Xi Zhi knew that if he was dissuading, he would become the target of the public. However, as Zhang Bao's strategist, he can't help but consider the overall situation.

Xi Zhicai stubbornly persuaded: "Lord, now is not the time to attack with all your might. ”

"Isn't it time?" Before Zhang Bao could speak, the vengeful Zhang Liang glanced at Xi Zhicai with compassion and asked, "If you don't attack Youzhou, how can you catch the old thief of Huangfu, and how can you avenge my eldest brother?" ”

Xi Zhicai said: "General Rengong, avenging General Tiangong is a personal vendetta, but in terms of the current situation, it is very likely that our army will be defeated in attacking Youzhou, so the situation of our army will be extremely passive." ”

"I can't do that much." Zhang Liang said sharply, "If I can't avenge my eldest brother, wouldn't I be surviving in the world?" ”

Immediately, Zhang Liang bent his legs, knelt on the ground and cried to Zhang Bao: "Lord, second brother." If we don't avenge our eldest brother, what face do we have to live in this world? If the second brother is unwilling, then ask the second brother Bo to give me a soldier and horse, and I will take revenge myself. ”

"Second brother." Zhang Bao hurriedly helped Zhang Liang up: "What are you doing here?" I am a fellow mother with my eldest brother, how can I not grieve for my eldest brother. The words of the military advisor are also for the sake of the overall situation of our army. But~"

Zhang Bao said sharply in front of the generals: "People live for a lifetime, and they can't even protect their closest people, so they live in vain." ”

"Alas~" Xi Zhicai looked at Zhang Bao's firm gaze, and sighed in his heart, this battle is likely to be the end of the Yellow Turban Army.

"The lord's intention is revenge, have you ever thought that our army's current strength alone is far from being the enemy's opponent, if the lord dispatches troops. The officers and troops took the opportunity to sneak attack the empty camps in various parts of our army, and the territory of the Central Plains states may no longer belong to our army. Xi Zhicai made a final effort to persuade.

However, once Zhang Bao decides what he decides, it is not something that Xi Zhicai can persuade at all.

"I have made up my mind, and the military division must say more." Then Zhang Bao said sharply: "Where is He Man?" ”

He Man held the mixed iron rod in his hand, quickly stepped forward and said loudly: "The last general will be." ”

Zhang Baodao: "With an expedited of 800 miles, Guo Da, the commander of Yuzhou, will immediately lead the army to Jizhou together with Yexian Bocai Starry Night, if it does not arrive within half a month, it will not be spared." ”

"No." He Man, who received the order, quickly went to Yuzhou to convey the order.

"Zhang Liang!"

"What does my brother command?"

Zhang Bao looked at Zhang Liang's body that had not fully recovered, and said in a low voice: "Third brother, you are not in good health, I shouldn't have sent you." Zhang Mancheng of Kenan County was seriously wounded, and his command must have been in a fluctuating military spirit. I thought about it, and only by sending my third brother to go can I gather this army. ”

"Whatever the second brother says, as long as the second brother can use my place, the third brother will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire."

Zhang Bao nodded. "Go ahead."

"The third brother obeys."

"Yellow Dragon."

"The disciple is here."

"Starry Night rushed to Yanzhou, ordered Bu Ji to lead a large army to Jizhou, and told him that the grain and grass in Yanzhou could be brought with him, and all the grain and grass that could not be brought would be burned."

"No."

"Ma/Yuanyi"

"Order Huang Shao of Yangzhou and Liu Pi of Runan to immediately lead his soldiers and horses to Jizhou within a month, otherwise they will bear the consequences."

"No."

The assignment was decided, and the generals took their orders and left.

Zhang Bao took a deep breath and said slowly, "Let's all step down." The military division stayed. ”

Watching everyone withdraw, Zhang Bao finally couldn't hold it anymore, his already weak body was already exhausted after being in a state of high mental tension for so long.

Xi Zhicai looked at Zhang Bao's crumbling body, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Bao sit down. Zhang Bao sighed and said to Xi Zhicai: "The military advisor doesn't understand why I insist on revenge? ”

Xi Zhicai smiled bitterly: "The lord has a far-sighted strategy. I don't know what the lord thinks. ”

Zhang Bao closed his eyes, rubbed his temples with both hands and said: "What the military advisor said is all about everything, and it is definitely a good word for the development forces in the troubled times. ”

"Then why did the lord insist on attacking Youzhou?"

Xi Zhicai asked a little puzzled.

Zhang Bao opened his eyes and looked into the distance, his eyes were profound: "The official army relies on the cohesion of the country. The Yellow Turban Army is a group of troops united by faith, and without faith this army will lose its cohesion. My eldest brother is the belief of this army, and it is the cohesion of this army. However, my eldest brother has died in battle, and if I can't quickly become the faith of this army, then as time moves, the faith of the Yellow Turban Army will dissipate, and the Yellow Turban Army will eventually die. ”

Xi Zhicai is a smart person, but he has a specialization in the art industry, he is a qualified strategist but not a leader. Zhang Bao does not have a smart mind and cannot quickly come up with all kinds of strange schemes, but as a time-traveler who has transcended this era for more than 2,000 years, his enthusiasm for religious belief is far more thorough than the etiquette of people in this era.

"The military division has planned the road for our Yellow Turban Army, and the Central Plains are not suitable for the development of the Yellow Turban Army. Then take this opportunity to occupy the state and Youzhou in one fell swoop. Isn't this exactly what the military advisor was planning?"

Xi Zhicai took a deep breath and said, "The lord is far-sighted, so it's better to do it,"

Zhang Bao patted Zhicai's shoulder, did not speak, and stood there quietly, looking at the north with deep eyes.

Yuzhou, Taishou Mansion.

Bocai hurriedly entered, hugged his fist to Guo Da and said, "General Guo." ”

Guo Da also clenched his fists and saluted back: "Bo Cai Qu is handsome." ”

Bocai said: "The general summoned me from Ye County overnight, I don't know what is important?" ”

General Guo handed the book to Bo Cai in his hand, and said in a condensed voice: "A moment ago, the lord sent an urgent report of 800 miles to the horse, ordering us to go to Jizhou to assemble in Yuzhou. ”

"What?" Bo Cai's face suddenly became solemn, took the book and browsed through the ten lines at a glance, and said while reading: "The lord's wording is so harsh!? It seems that the death of General Tiangong has dealt a big blow to the lord, and I am afraid that this is a decisive battle with Huangfu Lao'er. ”

Guo Da nodded and said: "Yes, the military situation is urgent, it is only right for you and me to quickly raise the army and go to Jizhou, I really want to miss the trip, I am afraid that you and I will not have a good life." ”

"But before leaving, we are adding a fire to this place in Yuzhou." A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Guo Da's face.

That night, wails hung all over the city of Yuzhou. The Yellow Turban Army broke into the major families with a cruel smile on their faces, and slaughtered all men, women and children. The city was shrouded in blood, and it was full of wails and cries.

Countless ordinary people shivered and hid in their rooms, lest the fanged Yellow Turban Army enter their homes. In the early morning mist, the city was still full of blood, but there was no trace of the Yellow Turban Army.

"Father, father. The Yellow Turbans withdrew. Before dawn, Xu Ying hurried to her father Xu Zhang's room.

At this time, Xu Zhang didn't sleep all night, sat there with his eyes closed, and looked at his son in a hurry when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "How many times have I said that those who want to achieve great things must collapse in front of Taishan and not change their faces." Why can't you change your hurried temperament? ”

"What my father taught me was that my son remembered." Xu Ying hurriedly put away her hurried face and stood there respectfully.

"Well, you said the Yellow Turbans withdrew?"

"Yes father, the Yellow Turbans have withdrawn. All the great families in the city were slaughtered, and none of them survived. Let's take over the empty market,"

"What? One doesn't stay? Xu Zhang's face changed greatly, and he said angrily at Xu Ying: "Confused." The Yellow Turban Army's slaughtering family regardless of its reputation must have reached the moment of life and death. And now we are the only one left, and the discerning people see that we are on the side of the Yellow Turban Army. ”

Then he closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "Guo Shuai is forcing us." Okay, you go and quickly sort out the property, and replace it all with gold and silver. We went north to find Guo Shuai. ”

"Huh?" Xu Ying stared at her father.

"Ahhhh Don't go yet. Xu Zhang looked at Xu Ying's surprised appearance and said angrily.

Guo Da actually forced the Xu family to be tightly tied to the warship of the Yellow Turban Army. Although the Xu family is not a top family, it has a large number of iron tools and grain purchase channels in its hands, but it is just because its financial resources are not as good as the rest of the families. If you give it enough financial resources, I am afraid that it will be time to become a giant businessman.

And iron and food are always the most important thing for an army, so Guo Da is just a killing, firmly tying the Xu family to the warship of the Yellow Turban Army.
