Chapter 152: The Chicken and Dog Will Not Be Left

"Order General Dian Wei to immediately lead the army to chase and kill!" After glancing at Liu Wei, Xu Shu said to the soldiers who reported the news: "The crossbowmen are delayed, and they will guard the rear army with crossbow arrows!" The spear array then advances, keeping an eye on the flanks and behind at all times! Tell General Dian Wei that he can only pursue three miles, and he will not chase and kill one more mile! In addition, some soldiers and horses were left behind to assist General Zhao Yun in guarding the prisoners! ”

"No!" The soldier responded, turned and ran quickly towards the battlefield.

The Baibo army, which had already descended the mountain, was killed by Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, and most of them put down their blades and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Dian Wei was ordered to lead his army up the hill and chase down the Baibo army, which was already in disarray. Zhao Yun led the cavalry and some officers and soldiers who stayed behind to clean up the battlefield, and gathered the surrendered Baibo army in one place.

The Baibo army that went down the mountain totaled more than 10,000 people, and was covered up and killed by Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, and more than 1,000 were seriously injured and killed, while more threw down their weapons and squatted together with their heads in their hands, looking at the officers and soldiers of Liu Wei standing aside with apprehensive eyes.

Dian Wei led most of the army to catch up with the hillside, slashing the Baibo army all the way.

The fleeing White Polish army soon discovered a strange phenomenon, as long as they dropped their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, the red-clothed officers and soldiers chasing after them would not slash their blades at them, as if they suddenly had a protective charm around them.

The Bai Bo army, who was congested behind, found this strange situation, and most of them squatted down, even the Yellow Turban soldiers, who ran a little faster, also squatted on the hillside, and did not dare to move more.

According to Xu Shu's orders, Dian Wei pursued Sanli and captured nearly 20,000 people before escorting the captives and walking down the mountain.

On the wilderness at the foot of the mountain, 20,000 or 30,000 captured Baibo officers and soldiers were driven to a squatting place by the soldiers under Liu Wei's command like driving pigs.

Most of them held their heads and didn't even dare to look at the red-clothed killing gods who were not far from them and were holding blades in their hands.

Liu Wei, who was dressed in gold armor, pressed a long sword in his hand, and accompanied by Xu Shu, Zhao Yun and others, led a team of personal soldiers to the captured Bai Bo army.

When he arrived at a place that was only more than ten steps away from these White Wave Army, Liu Wei chose a leeward place, pressed the hilt of his sword, and raised his brows and shouted to the captives: "Soldiers of the White Wave Army, do you know why this king didn't kill you!" ”

As soon as Liu Wei shouted like this, all the Bai Bojun who were squatting with their heads in their hands all raised their faces, and their eyes full of dazedness and horror looked at Liu Wei who was wearing gold armor, with his back to the sun, and his armor flashing with golden luster, like a god.

Looking at the prisoners of the White Polish Army who were squatting in front of him, Liu Wei then shouted to them: "You are not the most heinous people! Pick up the sword and oppose the imperial court, just because you want to live! All living beings have the right to live, and this king really has no reason to kill you! ”

Listening to Liu Wei's words, the prisoners of the Bai Bo Army became more and more confused.

In the past, no matter where the officers and soldiers were, as long as they caught the Yellow Turban Army, they would all be killed on the spot, and they would definitely not leave half of them alive.

It is precisely because of this that the Yellow Turban Army, which has been fighting for more than ten years, is tired of endless battles and being chased by the official army, but it does not dare to leave the army for half a step, nor does it dare to surrender to the official army, so it can only choose to fight to the death.

If it weren't for Liu Wei suddenly leading the army to attack today, disrupting the formation of the Baibo army, causing most people to lose the belief in fighting, so many people would never have surrendered.

A pair of blank eyes looked at Liu Wei, and the eyes of many Baibo Army prisoners faintly flashed with a desire to survive.

"I, King Hongnong, raised an army in order to kill the traitor! Kill all the wicked officials who have plagued the people! Kuang Fu Han Dynasty Gang! Pressing the hilt of the sword with one hand, Liu Wei shouted to the prisoners of the Bai Bo Army: "But the existence of the Yellow Turban Army will shake the foundation of my Han Society, and it is also the duty of this king to eliminate the Yellow Turban!" ”

Having said this, Liu Wei's brows tightened, and he looked around at the Baibo Army captives who were squatting on the ground and the black crows couldn't see their heads, and said to them: "At present, you have two ways to choose, one is to serve this king, and take off the yellow scarf on your head for this king!" The second is that they dispersed, were caught by other officers and soldiers, and then cut off their heads! How to choose, it's up to you! ”

The captured Bai Bo officers and soldiers looked at each other one by one, and many of them still had thoughtful looks on their faces, but they didn't know how to respond to Liu Wei's shouting.

"Hesitation!" The twenty or thirty thousand prisoners of the Baibo Army were hesitating, not knowing whether Liu Wei was sincere or false, Zhou Cang, who was standing behind Liu Wei, strode forward, walked to the back of Liu Wei's side, and shouted at them with round eyes: "This general is Zhou Cang, and he also made a yellow scarf that day!" followed His Royal Highness, and now he is also an official soldier, and he is no longer a thief! Serve Your Highness, eat a full stomach, dress warmly, no one dares to bully you and so on! You're hesitating, bird! ”

Before the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhou Cang was a fierce general in the Yellow Turban Army. His name is not much smaller than Guan Hai, the first fierce general of the Yellow Turban, and many officers and soldiers of the Yellow Turban have also heard of him.

Zhou Cang reported his name, and many of the prisoners of the White Polish Army who participated in the Yellow Turban in the early years raised their heads and looked at him with round eyes.

Since the defeat of Zhang Liang, they were collected by Guo Tai, Yang Feng and others, and became a part of the White Bo army, following the army to fight in the area north of the Yellow River.

"It's really General Zhou!" Some of the Yellow Turban soldiers had seen Zhou Cang back then, but after nearly ten years, they didn't remember Zhou Cang's appearance very well, and after Zhou Cang's exclamation, they all came back to their senses and looked at him carefully, and after a while, a Yellow Turban soldier stood up and shouted to the others with a look of surprise: "Since General Zhou is here, King Hongnong will definitely not hurt our lives!" The villain is willing to follow King Hongnong! ”

As he spoke, the Yellow Turban soldier pulled off the towel on his head, threw it to the ground, and stood straight in the crowd of black pressure squatting.

"Good brother!" Seeing that the yellow turban soldier took off the scarf, Zhou Cang raised his thumb and picked at him, and praised: "The one who is willing to follow His Highness is the brother of so-and-so!" ”

Someone took the lead, and Zhou Cang shouted loudly that he was willing to follow His Highness is his brother, and more and more prisoners of the White Bo Army stood up and took off the yellow scarf on their heads, and some of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were still hesitating saw that others had taken off their scarves, and they all stood up with some fear.

Looking at the Yellow Turban soldiers who stood up, Liu Wei nodded with satisfaction and said to them: "Okay! Very good! Since you are willing to help this king achieve great things, from this day on, you will be brothers in this king's army, eating and living with all the soldiers, and no one will be discriminated against! ”

In the past, when the Yellow Turbans were caught by officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers would make fun of them in every way until they toyed people to death, and they would cut off their heads and show off on their blades.

Many of the captured Bai Bojun had already been prepared to be killed earlier, who would have thought that Liu Wei would be willing to recruit them.

What touched them even more was that Liu Wei not only promised to let them eat and live with the officers and soldiers, but also made a promise that no one would discriminate against them.

Looking at Liu Wei with his back to the sun and his clothes and armor glowing with a faint golden light, many of the Yellow Turban soldiers actually forgot that they were still being chased and killed by the officers and soldiers under Liu Wei's command just now, and their bodies trembled slightly with excitement.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing!" Twenty or thirty thousand Yellow Turban soldiers stood there stunned for a while, and a Yellow Turban officer suddenly seemed to understand something, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted to Liu Wei: "From today onwards, I am willing to follow His Highness before and after the saddle!" ”

"Good!" Liu Wei nodded, looked at the group of Baibo army prisoners who numbered more than the total number of soldiers and horses under his command, and shouted to them: "Follow this king, this king has no opinion!" But you must know that from today onwards, you are no longer the yellow turban thief that everyone shouts and beats! It's an upright officer and soldier! ”

Twenty or thirty thousand men who had just taken off their yellow scarves raised their heads one after another, looking at Liu Wei standing in front of them, their eyes flashing with hope.

The Yellow Turban Thieves have been fighting against the officers and soldiers for several years, but all the Yellow Turban soldiers know that no matter how bravely they fight, all they get in the end is to live a few more days.

"From today onwards, you will be led by General Zhou Cang!" Looking at the Yellow Turban Army standing in front of him, Liu Wei nodded at them and said: "Our army is short of armor, and when we take the city in the future, we will definitely equip you with weapons and official armor!" ”

"Long live King Hongnong!" Liu Wei's promise ignited the expectations of the 20,000 or 30,000 Baibo prisoners for the future, and one of the prisoners in the crowd first raised his arms and cheered, and then the 20,000 or 30,000 Baibo prisoners all raised their arms and cheered.

After a simple mobilization, when Liu Wei led everyone to walk away from the prisoners of the Baibo army, Zhou Cang followed behind him and whispered: "Your Highness, there are only more than 20,000 soldiers in our army, and the number of prisoners has exceeded that of our army, and the last general is afraid of ......."

"Be kind to them!" Liu Wei turned his head to look at Zhou Cang and whispered to him: "From today on, you are their main general, and you must love them as if you were your own children!" You have also been a Yellow Turban, and you know what kind of people the Yellow Turban Army is, they just pick up the sword to fight against the court in order to survive, as long as they are better than before in the Yellow Turban Army, these people will not be difficult! ”

"No!" Zhou Cang responded, but the look on his face was still a little hesitant.

"Your Highness, I want to go to Yucheng!" Liu Wei instructed Zhou Cang to treat the soldiers well, and was walking towards the commander of the Chinese army, Xu Shu followed behind him and whispered to him: "I have met Hu Cai, who guarded Yucheng, twice, and this person once advocated to serve the imperial court and surrender to His Majesty today, but it did not work out because of Guo Tai's obstruction. Now that Guo Tai and Yang Feng are being pursued and killed by our army, it is an excellent opportunity to persuade this person to surrender. ”

"No!" Xu Shu's words were just finished, and Liu Wei categorically vetoed: "Yucheng is in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, our army defeated Guo Tai and Yang Feng here, and the defenders of Yucheng pity Tongze and must hate our army, and the military division will go to ...... alone."

"Your Highness!" Before Liu Wei finished speaking, Xu Shu interrupted him and said to him: "That Hu Cai and Guo Tai are very different, the two have different opinions, and Bai Bojun is known to everyone!" With such an opportunity to win the city without blood, how can His Highness let it go? ”

When he spoke, Xu Shu's face was a little anxious, Liu Wei pinched his chin with one hand, and muttered for a moment before he said to him: "So the military advisor will bring some good hands to go, if that Hu dares to move half a cold hair of the military division, this king will definitely set foot in Yucheng, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!" ”
