Zhang Xian, the county magistrate of Huairong County, was busy cleaning up the battlefield, and cutting the head of the Yellow Turban Army was his biggest hobby recently, the county magistrate who has always been known for his Sven people. He didn't know why Zu Zhao was very disgusted with cutting off the heads of the enemy army, and even a little surprised by military merits, but he understood his duty, since the post superintendent was unwilling to do it, his subordinate should share the worries for the officials.

In just a few days, the heads of the Yellow Turban Army who were killed were all pickled with lime and piled up on the streets of Huairong County, densely packed like a hill.

The people of Huairong County who survived, saw that these heads either threw rotten eggs or vegetable leaves, for no other reason, although the current Yellow Turban Army just began to fight for the people, but after the formation of the army, it lost its original intention at the beginning, burning, killing and plundering is even more crazy than the official army, which is why the Yellow Turban Army is not welcomed by the people of Huairong County.

As for the living Yellow Turban Army prisoners, they were even more miserable, they were punished to kneel in front of the county government every day, and show the public with a huge wooden flail, which was a distinct military feat for Zhang Xian, the county commander of Huairong County, and his subordinates, which were used to show off. Every day, women and children come here to dig up these captives with sharp fingers, and some of the captives are even directly gouged out of their eyeballs and eaten by people, because the husbands and brothers of those women and children were killed in the battle when the Yellow Turban Army was attacking the city, and of course there is revenge at this moment, beating the water dogs.

"Inspector Post, after detailed calculations, this time we killed 390 enemies and captured 210 people, and we lost more than 600 people to the Yellow Turban Army before and after!" When Zhang Xian said these words, his lips trembled, excitedly.

"Oh!" Zu Zhao just nodded faintly, without any expression.

Zhang Xian was stunned, Lord Inspector is really a city, such a big military feat is so quiet, he can hold it like this at a young age, he is really a master.

"My lord is delighted, if this is reported, it will be a great achievement!" Zhang Xian still continued to pat his ass. It's difficult for others to reach middle age, and he thinks that he can see through people's hearts in the officialdom, but he can't figure out the thoughts of the young general in front of him.

"Since there are three hundred and ninety heads, let's take out the heads of one hundred people and give them to the hot-blooded officials and volunteers of Zhang County Ling and Huairong County!" Zu Zhao looked at Zhang Xian's face, and saw through the other party's mind at a glance, the so-called no profit is not early, this guy in front of him spared a lot of money is nothing more than military merit.

"Huh? Xiexie Postal Inspector! Zhang Xian bent down and bowed to Zu Zhao to give a big salute, he has been in Huairong County for many years, and there is a tendency to sit and wear the county government of Huairong County, seeing that Zu Zhao has made such a great achievement, he is a bureaucrat who is known as a Sven person and can't sit still, and he is cheeky and wants to have some military merits, after all, they are also meritorious in guarding the county, but Zu Zhao directly gave him the head of a hundred people, and such a bold spirit still surprised him.

"I hope that Zhang County Ling can give me more grain and grass than three hundred cavalry!" Zu Zhao also spoke lightly.

"Lord Postmaster, please rest assured, the lower official will never let your adult down!" Zhang Xian slapped his chest with a shocking sound.

On the same day, Zhang Xian invited three hundred cavalry on behalf of the gentry to express the gratitude of Huairong County. The three hundred ghost riders probably never thought that they would have such treatment one day, and all of them did not refuse to come, and they were even more proud of themselves as the ghost riders.

The wine was hot, and Zhang Xianzuzhao and the county Cheng and others discussed the current chaos.

In normal times, no one dared to talk about the situation in the imperial court.

But wine is the essence of food, and it is the lubricant that brings interpersonal relationships closer, coupled with Zu Zhao's generous military exploits such as Zhang Xian and Huairong County, he subconsciously did not regard himself as an outsider.

"The white bones are exposed in the wilderness, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines. Zhang Xian shook his head and read it, looking compassionate.

Zu Zhao felt amused, "This poem is well written, it was made by the county magistrate?" Zu Zhao knew that this poem was made by Cao Cao to buy people's hearts, and it spread quickly in Shilin, so it became a poem in Zhang Xian's mouth.

"No, no, this is the poem of Cao Mengde, the captain of the upper cavalry, and the lower official felt that the artistic conception was the same as what he saw, and unconsciously read it!" Zhang Xian saw Zu Zhao smiling, and the idea of pretending to be one was suddenly dispelled. "Xia Guan also has some classmates in Shilin, exchanging letters on weekdays, and has some understanding of the current Yellow Turban Army rebellion, Xia Guan said a brave word, the current form is not very optimistic!"

Zu Zhao looked at Zhang Xian, and he couldn't imagine that this guy was actually a well-informed person.

"I didn't expect Zhang County Order to have such well-informed news, how about I tell this governor?" Zu Zhao then asked about the strength of alcohol, which is also the benefit of alcohol, which can bring each other closer.

"The Governor of the Post should know that the Yellow Turban Army was originally a homeless, but for many years, the Han Dynasty was thousands of miles away, and those homeless people were not well fed and clothed, and there were countless starvation deaths at the door of the house, so that every day should not be called the earth is not spiritual, the bandit leader Zhang Jiao is playing the sky is dead, the yellow sky is standing, the age is in Jiazi, the slogan of the world's great luck, demagoguery launched a rebellion in Julu, followed by 100,000 displaced people, all over Qingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou eight continents, divided into 36 parties, 10,000 people in Dafang and 78,000 people in Xiaofang, These rebel bandits brought their parents, wives and children in order to be able to eat a meal, and they robbed what they could in the states and counties they passed, and burned what they could, like locusts leaving no grass, to tell the truth, when the lower officials heard the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, they were so frightened that they almost peed their pants, you must know that these people are either mountain bandits or chaotic people, with a bloody nature, and there are many people, where can my small Huairong county withstand their toss? ”

Zhang Xian's face was pale, and he remembered the ferocity of the Yellow Turban Army.

Zu Zhao silently drank a cup of tea, although later generations praised Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army uprising, but Zu Zhao was deeply disdainful, relying on feudal superstition to drum up the team, that is, to be able to fool for a while, the world and the earth eat the biggest, and finally the Yellow Turban Army fell into a huge locust, not only for the landlords and gentry, but also to become a pest that harmed the good people, how can it be bigger, it can be said that it has entered a fork in the road at the beginning.

But he was still most interested in Emperor Han Ling's response, and at the moment the news was blocked, Zu Zhao didn't know much about the current situation: "I don't know what the current form is?" ”

"Zuo Zhonglang will Huangpu Song, right Zhonglang will Zhu Jun, and Bei Zhonglang will Lu Zhi mobilize the generals and volunteers from all over the country to kill them, and at the same time, Da Mercy will release all the prisoners on death row, and allow them to lead the team to make meritorious contributions and atone for their crimes with military exploits. And the traitor Zhang Jiao called General Tiangong his brother Zhang Baocheng General Digong, and Zhang Liang called General Rengong and soon formed three nests of traitors.

Rengong general Zhang Lianghuo in Jizhou Panhuan, Digong general Zhang Baotun in Quyang, Tiangong general Zhang Jiaozai Guangzong, these three places became the hub of the rebels, and the three rebels formed an encirclement of the Jingshi Luoyang from the north, east and south. ”

Among them, the most serious threat to Luoyang was the more than 200,000 Yellow Turban Army in the direction of Yingchuan, led by Bo Cai and Peng Tuo, who were fierce and abnormal, and had marched to Luoyang less than 300 miles. The right Zhonglang general Zhu Jun led 30,000 iron cavalry to rush into the suppression, but he lost his armor, which led to the exposure of the Changshe, the core of the grain and grass supply in the rear, in front of the Yellow Turban Army, and there was only Zhonglang General Huangpu Song and 3,000 cavalry in the city to meet the enemy, at this moment, I am afraid that it has fallen, and those grain and grass are estimated to have become the military needs of the Yellow Turban Army! ”

Zhang Xian then said vigorously, at this moment, it is inevitable that some buildings will be overwhelmed.

Zu Zhao was also extremely moved when he heard this, if the Yellow Turban Army destroyed Huangpu Song, I am afraid that history will be rewritten.

Now the most optimistic is Lu Zhi's army, with Zu Zhao and other generals in front of him barely talking about the past.

Relying on the strength of the wine, Zhang Xian pulled Zu Zhao and said a lot, chattering endlessly about the grievances he had suffered over the years, but Zu Zhao didn't say a word, although the wine was full of heavy thoughts.

Zhang Xian didn't dare to mention Lu Zhi's situation, because Lu Zhi was leading the troops to fight nearby, and what he was afraid of was that there were ears next door, and someone would exaggerate his drinking words. Even now, he is also worried in his heart, that day the homeless rebellion conquered the county seat is the day of his death, in this troubled world, it is he who is the county order, and today I don't know what will happen tomorrow.

Because of Zhang Xian's wine talk, the whole banquet fell into a dull mood for a while.

Zu Zhao stood up suddenly, there were still his three hundred ghost horses in the banquet at the moment, if this low mood was affected, where was the morale?

"You all know how the bandits are now exterminating in human form. I believe that they will take everything from you when they enter the city, and I am invincible in this battle, and I vow to fight to the end! The cavalry died in battle, the infantry braved, the infantry bravely killed the men, the men died in the battle, and the women and children were killed! A drop of blood that flows into zuihou must be guarded! ”

He drew the sword that was still bloodstained in his hand, and suddenly shouted, "Victory!" ”

The three hundred phantom riders stood up in unison and roared together: "Victory!" Win! Win! ”

The strong morale infected the gentry who were still in the doldrums, and Zhang Xian's pale face still had the anesthetic effect of alcohol, but he also raised his hands and shouted: "Victory!" ”

So much so that a banquet became a momentum mobilization meeting at the end.

Zu Zhao was always paying attention to Zhang Zizhong's movements, and he didn't believe that Zhang Zizhong would not retaliate after suffering such a big loss in his hands.

Sure enough, Zhang Zizhong returned to Laochao Shiling County with the remnants of the defeated soldiers, and began to recruit more than 3,000 young and middle-aged people, preparing to march to Huairong County again.

Zhang Zizhong wants food, and his Yellow Turban Army is talking about the army, but these Yellow Turban Army soldiers fight with their wives and children, and if they win, they can grab food to eat, so that they will not starve to death.

When the news came out, Huairong County once again fell into an uneasy atmosphere.
