Chapter 15 Famous Generals in History

"My lord! There is a defeated army of officers and soldiers ahead! "A group of Yellow Turban scouts rushed to report on the horse.

Because he has not yet had time to accept the title of official within the Yellow Turban Army, Zhao Futu's current prestige is not enough to directly call himself Qu Shuai, so he can only proclaim himself the enemy lieutenant now, and he can barely be regarded as having a name. As for whether it is in line with the current history, it doesn't matter, because there are not many people in these Yellow Turban Army who are literate and literate, the key is that he has more people under him now, and he can't control them at all if he doesn't set up a name for himself.

In this way, it is necessary to profess the rank of lieutenant below the rank of general.

He led the army north along the way, and encountered countless Yellow Turban routs, some of which were annexed by him on a small scale, and some of the larger ones were unwilling to live under others, so they turned around and retreated to Qingzhou. There were tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans scattered in Nanyang, and he incorporated about one-tenth of them, and there were more than 1,000 people under his command. Subsequently, after he captured a county seat, he could be regarded as having a little name in the Yellow Turban Army, and the number of Yellow Turban troops who came to defect increased to more than 3,000 people. At this point, unlike other Yellow Turban Army, Zhao Futu's requirements for recruiting manpower are much stricter, otherwise he will absorb a little Yellow Turban Army near Puyang, I am afraid that the number of people can reach more than 5,000.

Military food and materials are a big problem in this era, and Zhao Futu does not have any gentry and wealthy family support behind him, and that little food is all obtained by robbing and persecuting local wealthy families, if he doesn't take a county warehouse, he may not be able to raise so many people in his hands. One point must be mentioned here, that is, Zhao Futu went all the way north, but anyone who was willing to hand over part of the food and salary was not guilty of autumn, so many local tyrants were willing to spend money to eliminate disasters along the way, all to avoid a disaster of swords.

In this way, on the contrary, Zhao Futu's pseudonym 'Huangshi' in this battlefield space has a faint reputation.

At the very least, he was indeed a little better than those Yellow Turban rebels who were raiding everywhere like locusts in transit, whether it was the gentry or the local officials.

After conquering a county seat, Zhao Futu received sufficient military rations and a batch of equipment to arm the soldiers under his command. Outside, there are starvations all over the field, full of white bones, and the granaries in the county are also empty, and they can't even see a mouse, but the county order, the county lieutenant, the county cheng, and the mansions of the local gentry are full of rice and grain!

The once glorious Han Dynasty has come to the twilight of the West Mountain, and the last bit of glory is about to completely dissipate.

The eunuchs and relatives were in power, and the entire Eastern Han Dynasty had been corrupted to the point of hopelessness, and the phenomenon of buying and selling officials everywhere could be seen everywhere. In recent years, there have been countless droughts and floods in the Central Plains, and the people of the lower classes have nothing to rely on, they have no place to scrape, so they can only stretch their hands into the granaries of the counties, and use various small means such as natural disasters to completely divide the wealth in the county warehouse.

There is one thing that is very common in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, in this era of natural disasters, there is almost no disaster relief in the place, and even some places do not even reduce taxes, forcing countless people to go into exile!

Zhao Futu let go of those local surnames, but he didn't let go of any of the official gentry and wealthy families in the county.

After he raided his house, he received a large amount of food and military salaries, and naturally there were no logistical concerns for the time being, and he couldn't take away all the grain, gold and silver, so he scattered money to recruit people, maybe other Yellow Turban Qu Marshals would have selfish intentions and leave some of those wealth privately, but for contractors like Zhao Futu, these things that can't be taken away have no value at all, and they might as well be used to buy people's hearts.

With more than 1,000 swords and halberds, 300 pairs of armor, and more than 100 war horses, Zhao Futu armed more than 1,000 people at once, and also formed a personal guard force of more than 300 people.

In fact, he has a deeper purpose in doing this, that is, if he goes to defect to Tiangong General Zhang Jiao, he can't be sure whether Zhang Jiao will absorb the soldiers under his current command, and if these Yellow Turban troops collected by him are absorbed, will this military power still be in his hands? After all, he has gathered more than 3,000 people now, and they are all specially selected soldiers, who may not have received any military training, but they are all young and middle-aged, and there is absolutely no old, weak, sick or disabled!

Instead of waiting to try his luck at that time, it is better for him to spend some time buying people's hearts now!

………………

"Defeated?" Zhao Futu's eyes narrowed when he heard this, a glimmer of light flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Where are they now?" ”

The scout of the Yellow Turban Army pointed to the valley of the guide face and said respectfully: "Right in that valley, there are about four or five hundred of them, all of whom are remnants of the defeated army. At the moment, they were making a fire to cook, and they only found out when they saw the rising cooking smoke, but they didn't dare to sneak over to investigate for fear of alarming others! ”

"Someone! Reward him with five taels of silver, a pot of wine, and record his military exploits! "Although modern people don't know much about the ancient process, they know more or less something, and Zhao Futu's reward and punishment system doesn't need to be too perfect, and he won't stay here for long, as long as others understand that merit can be rewarded. Moreover, all the gold and silver obtained from the attack on the county town were not exchangeable things, and it was better for him to use them as rewards.

Along the way, he also fought with several officers and soldiers, and he was rewarded for all the bravery, and now the morale of this Yellow Turban Army is completely piled up with money.

This commanding army is completely different from fighting alone!

Zhao Futu wants to command the army, so naturally it is impossible for him to go into battle in person, so after a battle, he has almost no survival point income, and all the items he obtains are not exchangeable, but he has obtained a little bit of world exploration and plot reversal rewards, in addition to a lot of camp prestige. He only hopes that after the end of this battlefield mission, he will get a higher evaluation of mission completion, otherwise, the benefits of leading troops to fight are completely inferior to doing it alone.

"Luck!" Zhao Futu looked a little excited, and said in a deep voice to several promoted army commanders around him: "You will lead a team of people to outflank from the side, and after I defeat the main force of the enemy, I must take them all!" ”

"Yes! My lord! Several uncles answered the order and left.

After speaking, Zhao Futu ordered the army to rest for a while, and then directly led the army towards the location of the valley to surround it.

He didn't expect that his luck would be so good, and he actually encountered the Han Dynasty's rout as soon as he entered the territory of Jizhou, which was completely a military feat sent to the door! If he is lucky, he can meet a famous historical general who is lonely, but maybe he can really use the army to pile up a few of those famous historical generals who are awesome and coaxing! An ordinary county lieutenant can drop a dark blue key, how can he kill a famous historical general worse than this, right?

Jizhou.

Zhang Jiao first broke Lu Zhi, and then Dong Zhuo, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was greatly boosted, and the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty were defeated and retreated for hundreds of miles. Especially when the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao broke Dong Zhuo for the second time, he even defeated the Han Dynasty army, if he hadn't been rescued by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei who happened to be passing by, I'm afraid this Dong Zhuo would have to explain here! And this battle is also the reputation of the three of them, Liu Guan and Zhang, the three of them dared to kill an army of tens of thousands of people with their own strength, and they could also rescue Dong Zhuo from the encirclement, and their perverted force was completely conceivable!

However, Liu Guanzhang will definitely not be here at this time.

They rescued Dong Zhuo, but they were not treated by Dong Zhuo, and they would definitely not stay here at this time.

Then there is no doubt that this army of officers and soldiers is likely to be the remnants of the defeated army that were scattered when Dong Zhuo was defeated, and they have broken all the way here, and they have completely lost contact with the main force.

………………

"Kill!"

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand!"

With the sudden shouting of killing outside the valley, the Han Dynasty rout in the valley suddenly jumped up like a frightened bird, and the shouting and killing sound outside shook the sky, and before the Yellow Turban Army approached, there were already officers and soldiers who had no fighting spirit ready to escape. But at this moment, a black-faced fat fierce general suddenly came out of the Han army, he was wearing general armor, holding a halberd, and shouted angrily: "Don't mess with yourself!" ”

"Let me kill !!"
