Chapter 30: Stalemate
"Newspaper - General, General Cao has good news! The black-clothed killers were all annihilated, and there were two living mouths, and they deliberately let one person escape, preparing to catch another big fish for the general. A soldier ran in outside the door and knelt in front of the general He Jin.
"Haha-this Cao Mengde is really a lucky general, and he can always bring some surprises to General Ben. General Ben is here to see who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head! Today is the best news He Jin has heard, and he can't help laughing.
"He Ren, give General Ben a good reward for this herald, and tell the kitchen to prepare a banquet quickly, and General Ben will celebrate your achievements in a while! And send someone to see how Chun Yuqiong and Bao Xin are doing? He Jin, who was in a good mood, suddenly had an appetite.
"Yes—the little ones are going right away! Wait, General—"
He Ren turned around and walked out with the herald, and the generals and captains present stood up one after another to say hello to the general He Jin, saying that the general He Jin can only win a decisive victory thousands of miles away by strategizing, and some people say that the general He Jin is a miraculous calculation, comparable to Zhang Liang and Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty...... The bursts of sycophants made He Jin dizzy, and He Jin's mouth was crooked.
"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand. The year is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky! Brothers, kill - rather die than surrender to these dog officers! "In another stronghold of Taiping Road, about 30 Yellow Turban wrestlers were surrounded by Chun Yuqiong and Bao Xin.
"Listen to the people inside—we are the soldiers and horses under the command of the great general, and the general has come to arrest you. You and other mountain bandits tried in vain to assassinate His Royal Highness the Prince of the Han Dynasty, and they have already committed the crime of rebellion, so they quickly opened the door and surrendered! This general has the virtue of a good life and does not want to kill, give you a stick of incense time to consider, if you don't surrender, this general will definitely let you chickens and dogs not stay. Chun Yuqiong shouted loudly while carrying the wine gourd.
"Dog Officer - go die! Whoosh-" The answer to Chun Yuqiong was a sharp arrow, and when he saw the flying arrow, Chun Yuqiong unhurriedly raised the knife in his hand and flicked it back and forth, knocking the flying arrow to the ground.
"What a bunch of killers who don't want to kill the king of the underworld! General Chunyu, I don't think we need to talk nonsense with them, let's send troops to attack directly! The knife in my Bao Xin's hand is already hungry and thirsty - this head is handed over to me, and the general is in the back to suppress the formation for me! "Bao Xin and Yuan Shao led the army to save the prince during the day, but he didn't know that Cao Cao took the lead, and in the end, he didn't even catch a single hair in a vain fight. Tonight's operation is Cao Cao's direct leadership, and he and Chun Yuqiong cooperate to lead the troops to attack another place, which can be seen that Cao Cao after the eunuch has begun to have a place in the eyes of the general He. After catching this group of killers, you can find out who is behind the scenes, which is definitely a great achievement! Hmph - as for Chun Yuqiong, an ignorant martial artist, let him go to the formation!
"General Bao, good, good, good - all the men and horses are commanded by you, and I will press you in the back! Don't worry, even a fly can't fly out with me! Chun Yuqiong took another sip of wine halfway through his words, he only left a dozen or so guards by his side, and the others all followed Bao Xin and pressed up. Seeing Bao Xin's figure rushing up, a glimmer of light appeared in Chun Yuqiong's eyes, it seems that what Yuan Benchu said is right Bao Xin is a complete villain, and at this time he still wants to fool himself to fight for merit? I am not afraid that the front teeth will be knocked out again if the meat is not eaten, as an organization entrenched in Luoyang, there is no means to gain a foothold in this acre and three points. Chun Yuqiong, he waited for the yellow-clothed killer to show their hole cards, and only by knowing the enemy's reality could he win this battle.
Bao Xin led more than a hundred elite soldiers, some with swords and shields, some with spears, and behind them were archers sweeping the formation, and there was no formation at all and rushed forward like a swarm. When I was about to reach the door, there were more than a dozen yellow-clothed people with bamboo tubes crawling on the courtyard wall, dodging the bows and arrows shot by the officials and soldiers below, and at the same time quickly opening the front cover of the bamboo tube, and placing it with the mouth tilted upward. When the people waiting for Bao Xin approached the gate, a dozen or so people in yellow suddenly pressed the machine under the bamboo tube tightly, and in an instant, white powder was sprayed out, and the officers and soldiers who rushed to the gate were instantly shrouded in white mist.
The white powder was accidentally inhaled into the nasal cavity, and a pungent smell penetrated, and the officers and soldiers all coughed loudly, and some accidentally fell into the eyes and were burned and screamed, and after a while, the soldiers and horses in front were disabled, and the people and horses behind were suddenly bored by this sudden situation, and they began to stop and look at each other.
"Guys—withdraw!" This is a white Bao Xin with his upper body, including his face, running out of the range shrouded in the white mist, and hurriedly beckoning the soldiers and horses to withdraw from the attack range of the white mist. Someone gave an order, and more than 100 soldiers and horses withdrew in disgrace, and Bao Xin was also sitting on the ground without saying a word at the moment.
"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand. The year is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky! Heavenly Master blesses, the world is invincible-" For the first time in the courtyard, the repelled official army erupted into an unprecedented fanaticism, it seems that their great sage and good teacher are indeed extraordinary, and the objects they give are more magical than the other.
"General Bao, are you alright? Aren't those people in the yard a gang of killers? Why am I listening to a group of cult people, what are you yelling at? Chun Yuqiong also saw that the situation here was a little tricky, and he walked up to Bao Xin with a big axe and asked.
"General Chunyu, I'm ashamed - the first battle was like this! I don't know what these white powders are? There is no smell, but when inhaled, it will cough and burn in the mouth and eyes, but it is not a big problem for us soldiers to wear armor. Only a few of them accidentally fell into the eyes with white powder and there was some pain, what a shame! Bao Xin took off his helmet and knocked on the ground, grabbed the white dust on his shoulder and smelled it, he couldn't figure out what it was, why was he so sad? Good things can't be on their heads, unlucky things happen one after another, and it's really dark clouds covering the sky.
"This-let's stop the attack first, let people build a watchtower and erect torches to see the situation inside, and then we want to attack and enter! If it doesn't work, let's play with the big ones, I have already sent someone to fetch the oil, and if they don't come out, we will burn his yard to see that they are not like rats to be roasted by us. Hmph - I don't play yin, come clearly - I don't believe I can't take it down! Chun Yuqiong deliberately said that he wanted to burn the yard to Bao Xin, but in fact, he didn't dare to lend him a guts, now that the weather is dry and dry, there is a strong wind blowing, if the fire is not well controlled, it may cause a bigger fire. At this time, most of the houses in Luoyang City are still wooden, and they can be ignited instantly when they encounter a fire, and it is good to say that ordinary people have burned down the mansion of a big official, it is the old birthday star who eats arsenic and thinks that he has a long life.
"Don't—never—if the fire gets out of control, it's still us! Even if we catch these killers at that time, it will be too big and merit! Don't be impatient, let's think long-term! Let's build a watchtower first and see the situation-" Bao Xin stopped Chun Yuqiong's crazy thoughts in time, isn't this guy stunned and looking for trouble for himself? This matter still has to be done slowly, I just don't know what the battle situation is on Cao Cao's side?
"Report - two generals, the general sent me to ask how the task of the two generals is accomplished? General Cao's side has already eliminated the black-clothed killer and is sweeping away the remnants - I don't know the battle situation of the two generals? "The general's heralds came, and they asked how the battle was going.
At this moment, there was really no way for the two of them to get in safely, so they could only bite the bullet and let the herald go back to ask the general He Jin for help.
