Chapter 66: Guarding Yang City

After a pause, Zhang Ning's tears were puffing and dripping again, but then she wiped away her tears and said:

"The corpses were burned on the spot, and we prepared our army to rush along the mountain road to Yangcheng. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at the corpses, Tang Quan squinted his eyes and didn't know what to say, Zhang Jiao knew that he would definitely die, and he killed himself in advance for the life and death of 100,000 people.

Two hundred of the three thousand yellow turban wharves ran out, cut off their heads one by one, and then quickly set up a pyre to burn the corpses, and after a while the soldiers led the war horse brought out by Zhang Jiao, Tang Quan pulled the war horse and hung Zhang Jiao's bloody head on the side of the saddle, turned over the horse and turned back and drank:

"The whole army is set out, and no one is allowed to make noise at will."

The scene of the dispatch of 3,000 men and horses was still very objective, and as the team appeared near Yangcheng, a team of Han army sentry scouts came quickly on horseback, and one of the commanders roared from afar:

"Where are the soldiers and horses ahead?"

A small school on Tang Quan's side rode out of the queue and shouted:

"Lord Tang Quan, the county lieutenant of QH, is here, we met Zhang Jiao's rout halfway, the lord has already killed Zhang Jiao, and the head has been brought, I don't know if Lord Zhu Jun is here?"

"Lord Zhu Jun has just entered the city, if you are the QH county army, then choose a site and station, and ask the county lieutenant T to go to the county seat with his head." Wu Chang replied loudly.

Tang Quan beckoned, followed by two guards, Xiao Zhao and King Ida led the army to camp uphill nearby, Tang Quan's three horsemen followed the sentinel back to Zhuanyang City, and reported all the way up to the county yamen, and after a while, a small colonel came out and ordered:

"General Zhonglang has an order, and I invite Tang Quan, the county lieutenant of QH."

Tang Quan took off the head from the saddle and strode into the inner hall with the little colonel, kneeling on the wooden collapse of the inner hall sat a man in a black robe with a high crown, this person was burly and bright-eyed, and when he saw Tang Quan striding in, there was a faint smile in his eyes.

There were more than a dozen people in this inner hall, but Tang Quan glanced over and focused on the three people sitting at the end, the leader of these three people was white-faced, big-eared and long-armed, behind him a red-faced man with phoenix eyes and long beard glanced at him with a look of ignorance, and the last strong man with ring-eyed and steel-bearded eyes stared at the horned head in his hand with a face full of envy.

Zhu Jun and Liu Guanzhang, Tang Quan secretly muttered and handed the head to the junior colonel next to him, and said respectfully to Zhu Jun with his fists:

"Quan has seen General Zhonglang, this head is the head of the great virtuous and good teacher of the Tiangong General, the thief Zhang Jiao, please check it."

Zhu Jun beckoned, and a captured Yellow Turban Army colonel was escorted in, Zhu Jun pointed to the head and said:

"Do you know this head?"

"Ah...... General Tiangong ......"

The Yellow Turban Colonel exclaimed, Zhu Jun waved his hand and the soldier escorted the colonel away, Zhu Jun nodded with satisfaction and said:

"The T county lieutenant has a lot of credit, this head is wrapped in lime, and he will send the T county lieutenant to the capital together, I don't know how the T county lieutenant met this horn?"

Tang Quan had already had a belly case, and his eyes were like electric sound like a bell:

"In the early spring, I got an official document to serve as the lieutenant of QH County, and before I took office, the Yellow Turban rebels swept through Bazhou, and when I arrived in Qinghe from the chaotic army, there was nothing left, so I had to gather some county soldiers along the way and the surrounding Yellow Turban thieves, and recently finally gathered 3,000 people;

Knowing that Zhonglang will surround Zhang Jiao's army here, Quan led the army to come, but he didn't expect to meet Zhang Jiao who didn't have many people around him halfway, it turned out that he planned to let the army attract the attention of adults and the army, and he went to Quyang lightly to meet Zhang Bao and others, but he was unlucky to meet me. ”

Seeing Tang Quan's momentum, Zhu Jun, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, got up and walked in front of him with a happy face, and after patting him on the shoulder, Zhu Jun nodded and said:

"Okay, worthy of being the county lieutenant elected by the imperial court, now that the Yangcheng thief army is scattered, I don't know what do you think of the county lieutenant D?"

"This ...... Major events in the army, subordinates dare not speak falsely. Tang Quan replied cautiously.

Zhu Jun laughed and said:

"We are all warriors in the army, why do we have to hide like those civilian officials, and say, I won't blame you if you're wrong."

Tang Quan nodded and said:

"Since the subordinates said bluntly, Yangcheng Zhang Jiao let the army scatter in order to get out, these soldiers and coerced people will spread everywhere, it is impossible to quickly encircle and suppress it, the plan for now is to eliminate Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao, so that the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army has no thieves to rely on, and then clean up the remnants later."

朱儁 says:

"What the T county lieutenant said is in the heart of the general, today we will drive away Zhang Jiao's army, but this place is still a critical place near the left, I plan to lead the army to Xia Quyang, you, as the QH county lieutenant, can lead the army to live here temporarily, in addition to clearing the surrounding rebels and gathering the people, you can also avoid the thief army to occupy this place again, is the T county lieutenant willing?"

"The subordinates contribute to the imperial court, and they are willing to lead the generals to order the town to guard Yangcheng." Tang Quan immediately replied.

"Okay, in that case, I'll rush to Quyang immediately, and this city will be handed over to County Lieutenant T." Zhu Jun laughed.

With the handover of the city defense by the army, Zhu Jun's army went away from Yangcheng, and in the rear of Zhu Jun's army, Zhang Fei muttered in a low voice:

"Two brothers, I think that Tang Quan is extraordinary, the army is well-trained, why did Zhu Jun let him guard an empty city?"

Liu Bei smiled faintly and did not answer, Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said:

"General Zhonglang thinks a lot, and if you are in his position, the third brother can only do so."

"Why?" Zhang Fei asked puzzled.

Guan Yu looked at the army without seeing the head and tail and said:

"Tang Quan is a county lieutenant, and he led the army to kill Zhang Jiao, which is already a great merit, with this merit alone, he will be a local Taishou or a general in the future, but we inquired, although Tang Quan is also a disciple of the broken family, it has nothing to do with him at the top now;

Let him continue to make meritorious contributions, and when the time comes, the court will give him a history of assassination or an important position in the court, and many people may not be used to it;

Although General Zhonglang seems to be suppressing Tang Quan, I can see that he seems to be protecting this person, and the Yellow Turban Thief will undoubtedly lose at this point in the war, and the credit is too great, which is not necessarily a good thing in the future. ”

"I don't understand...... Why don't we care? Zhang Fei said.

Guan Yu smiled:

"Because we are white, and Tang Quan is a county lieutenant, although it is only a military marquis, at least he is an official of the imperial court, an official with a fortune, he killed Zhang Jiao, the yellow turbans in the world are his enemies, and his reputation will become famous all over the world with the spread of the imperial court, so there are good and bad, sooner or later you will know."

......

"This is an opportunity, a great sage and a good teacher are willing to die to get the opportunity, and I can't let go of ...... easily"

In Yangcheng Yamen, Tang Quan said this, indeed this is an opportunity, Zhang Jiao's death not only let 100,000 people out of danger, but also gave Tang Quan a lot of opportunities.
