In the big tent outside Yangzhai City, all the people in the tent were lined up on the left and right, looking at the uninvited guest standing in the center.

Although the Guo family is not a top family, it has been rooted in Yangzhai for many years, and in terms of power in Yangzhai alone, it is actually above the Yingchuan Xun family and other famous families.

"Now that Yang Zhai has fallen into the hands of the Yellow Turban Thief, how can the children of the famous family be outcast?" Huangfu Song looked at Guo Tu's expression as he spoke.

After a little freshening up in Liu Bei's tent, Guo Tuxian, who had swept away the dust of the trip and restored some of the family's spirits, gave a salute, "Tuben was ordered to go to Luoyang, but he just left the city, and he heard that the thieves in Yingchuan had risen, and the road ahead was blocked, so he returned overnight. ”

The people present were all smart people, and they knew why Guo Tu returned.

Although there are many yellow turbans on the road to Luoyang now, if he is bent on going, it is not difficult to go to Luoyang.

In the final analysis, he came here for the Guo family in Yangzhai City.

"I see." Huangfu Song nodded, "I just heard Xuande say that the public is here to offer advice, I don't know what to teach me?"

At this time, Guo Tu did not hesitate, and said loudly: "Yang Zhai Jiancheng, if the army is in a hurry, it will definitely be difficult, even if it can take this city, I am afraid that there will be many casualties in the army by then." It's nothing more than a lose-lose situation. The two Lang will come to quell the thieves, and they don't want to see the city ruined. ”

"I also know that Yang Zhai is in a hurry. It's just that this trip is to pacify the Yellow Turban, and I naturally pity the people in the city, but if I can't get rid of the thieves, I can't explain it to the court. Huangfu Song sighed deliberately.

In fact, before the military discussion, he had already set a method of attacking the city in his heart, and the reason why he delayed was just to let the Yellow Turban Army in the city relax their vigilance.

Guo Tu's face remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice: "Tu is here for this matter this time. Now the army is besieging Yang Zhai very urgently, the thieves are in the city, they can't advance or retreat, if they attack it urgently, they will definitely burn the jade. Therefore, I think it is better to surround three que. ”

Several people in the tent were stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

Guo Tu was stunned, and he didn't know what was ridiculous.

"The public rule is indeed a talented person." Huangfu Song stopped laughing and opened his mouth to explain, "Don't hide the rules, we have set this policy, and now the siege is not advancing, but I just want to deceive the yellow scarves in the city first." ”

Guo Tu sighed in his heart when he heard this, Huangfu Song and the others could think of this strategy the best, and there was no need for him to persuade him.

Since General Lang has already thought of this strategy, Tu will not say more. My Guo family still has some forces in Yangzhai City, and I have already explained before I go out that day, and I can help the army when I want to come. ”

Huangfu Song nodded with a smile and looked at Liu Bei on the side, "Xuande, you and the prince have an old relationship, it's rare to see each other, but you can talk about the old one." ”

Liu Bei came out and said yes.

………………

In Liu Bei's tent, Guo Tu and Liu Bei sat opposite each other.

In front of the two of them was a pot of hot soup and two wine bowls on the eucalyptus.

"When I first saw him that day, I asked for a drink. At that time, who could have imagined that one day, you and I would be able to sit and drink together? It's a pity that the law in the army is strict, and you can't drink alcohol, only hot soup is treated. ”

Guo Tu's face sank, and then quickly recovered as before.

The first meeting between the two that day was not a good conversation, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were unhappy.

No matter how talented he Guo Tu was, he couldn't have imagined that the young man who was barely worthy of sitting at the same table with him with the help of Lu Zhi's name had now become a big member of the party.

"There is no need to panic, you and I were young, and arguing a few words was ordinary, and it was not a big deal." Liu Bei said with a smile.

Guo Tu took a sip of the hot soup on the table, and said with a smile: "Liu Beihai can naturally think like this, the old things of the past can be turned over."

The two talked and laughed happily, as if they had really overturned the previous things.

"I don't know if the public rules have any plans to become a leader?" Liu Bei suddenly asked, "I want to recommend one or two to the public rule, but I don't know what the public thinks?" ”

Now he is the minister of the North Sea and has the right to recommend.

"Xuande is magnanimous and elegant, the picture should not be refused, but I have already asked a friend of mine before, but I am afraid that I will live up to Xuande's good intentions." Guo Tu excused himself.

Liu Bei was not annoyed when he heard this, he just nodded and smiled: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and with the ability of public rules, sooner or later they will be able to get ahead."

He changed his words and asked casually: "Is that friend surnamed Yuan?"

Guo Tu was stunned and speechless.

Half an hour later, Guo Tu left, Guan Yu came in from outside, and saw Liu Bei drinking hot soup alone, with a thoughtful expression.

Seeing Guan Yu enter, Liu Bei smiled and said, "Yun Chang, it seems that I still underestimate Yuan Benchu."

………………

In Yangzhai City, in a rich man's house temporarily occupied by the Yellow Turban, Bo Cai was pacing back and forth.

After days of cultivation, the injuries on his body have healed, but compared to the injuries on his body, he is now more worried about the situation in the city.

When the first attack on Yangzhai City actually didn't take much effort, after the Yellow Turban army came to the city, such as the Guo family, the big clans only made a little resistance, and then went out of the city and surrendered.

Since he could easily surrender that day, now that the Han army is coming west, he naturally does not expect these people to fight to the death with him.

What's more, he has squeezed a lot of money out of these wealthy families these days, even if these people don't say it, they must have a grudge in their hearts.

Now the officials and troops outside the city dare not attack the city, because they are afraid that a fish will die and the net will be broken.

But though they are in the city for a while, they will be lost if they hold it for a long time.

Now he has no more than two choices, one is to hold on to the city and wait for reinforcements from the great sages, and the other is to find an opportunity to break through.

Both naturally have pros and cons.

If they stay here and wait for reinforcements, the nearby Yellow Turban Army is afraid that they will not be able to deal with the officers and soldiers, and they may not have the strength to come to support. Even if they were able to come to support, they also gave the Han army a chance to encircle the point and wait for work, but they were sent to the door. Moreover, after a long period of defense, I am afraid that the courage of the people in the army will gradually diminish.

But if he broke through, now Huangfu Song and others joined forces, and with the current strength in his hands, he was never sure of winning a battle.

Bo Cai raised his hand and touched the yellow scarf on his head, and sighed.

I thought to myself, if the great sage and good teacher were here, how would he choose?

A few days later, hundreds of arrow books were shot into the city from outside the city, saying that the army of the great virtuous and good division of Jizhou had been defeated, and the three brothers of the great virtuous and good teacher were defeated and died. They have no rescuers outside, so it is better to descend early.

Although the matter was suppressed by Bo Cai with strong soldiers, he also knew that the minds of the people in the city had changed now.

For example, the Guo family and other big clans already have different ambitions, no matter whether the news outside the city is true or not, I am afraid that they have already thought about it.

And the Yellow Turbans have always been based on great sages and good teachers as their pillars, and now that they get this news, the hearts of the Yellow Turban soldiers stationed in the city have also fluctuated a lot.

Bocai sat in the house for a few days, but now under the situation, he can't think of a way.

He had already gone to the city to carefully observe the formation of the Han army outside the city, surrounding three gates and leaving only one north gate, obviously wanting them to break out from the north gate.

It's just that even if he knew about the Han army's plan, he had to do it.

If you stay in the city, sooner or later you will be disheartened, and you will just be tied to death. Forcibly breaking through is not a glimmer of life.

………………

On this day, Bocai secretly summoned the lieutenant generals and asked them to clean up the army and prepare to go out from the north gate at night.

That night, the north gate of Yangzhai was wide open, and if an army went out of the city, the defenders outside the north gate were weak, so they were only released from the north after a little blocking.

At the same time that the north gate was wide open, the east gate was also quietly opened, and a Yellow Turban army went straight to the defenders outside the city.

Knowing that the Han army's strategy of encircling Sanque Yi would also take the risk of sending troops, Bo Cai naturally had his own countermeasure.

His response is now a sound attack.

At the same time as it seemed that he was going to break through from the north of the city and attack the east gate, the Han army outside the city would definitely think that he had seen through their plan, and mistakenly thought that he was hiding in the yellow turban attacking the east gate, and gathered most of his troops at the east gate, and then the yellow scarf that broke through the north gate could be successfully escaped.

He naturally made this decision because he was thinking about it, but in the current situation, he couldn't help but be kind to his woman.

At this time, the person guarding the town outside the east gate was Zhu Jun, he went out of the battle, looked at the Yellow Turban Army opposite, but suddenly sighed, sighing that it was cheap Liu Bei and others.

It turned out that although the number of Yellow Turban troops on the opposite side was large, the army formation was loose, and it could be seen at a glance that it was not the main formation of Bocai, since Bocai was not here, it could only be mixed in the chaotic army that escaped from the north of the city.

At this time, with the yellow scarves in the north and east of the city going out of the city, the local wealthy clan headed by the Guo family immediately organized the guards in the clan to patrol the city.

And these wealthy families did this, not out of any compassion for the people, but to collect fame at the same time, to Huangfu Song and others to accept a vote.

When they returned to the king's rule, they naturally wanted to give a greeting gift.

………………

There were only a few thousand Yellow Turbans who escaped from the north gate, and they were trapped by the garrison at the north gate a lot, so now there are only a thousand people who have escaped.

At this time, it was far away from Yang Zhai, and Bocai let everyone garrison rest.

He stood at the front, turned to look at the remnants behind him, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Qu Shuai doesn't have to be sad, the brothers all died for Huang Tian, and they will definitely be reincarnated into a rich family in the future." A henchman beside Bocai saw his sad face and opened his mouth to persuade.

"My brothers went with me, but I couldn't save their lives." Bocai let out a long sigh and burst into tears, "When I go underground in the future, what face will I see with them." ”

"Qu Shuai doesn't need to be like this, things have come to this point, Qu Shuai is just cheering up and regrouping, he will kill Huangfu Song and others to avenge them, and they can't be depressed, otherwise they will not be at ease underground." The man was also in tears.

The two cried opposite each other, making the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers who followed them and escaped with their lives also wept with emotion.

When Bo Cai made up his mind to draw lots to select the candidate to attack the east gate, they still had some complaints in their hearts. Everyone knows that attacking the East Gate is mostly a life of death, even if they have always respected Bocai, but it is inevitable that there will be some resentment in their hearts.

It's just that now seeing that Bocai is so concerned about their lives, and such actions are all persecution by Huangfu Song and others, it is natural to transfer all the hatred to Huang Fu Song and others.

Bo Cai, who had already sat on the ground, stood up again, raised his sleeve to wipe the tears on his face, and said in a deep voice: "I swear here that he will definitely take you back to Yangzhai one day, and sacrifice the flag with the heads of Huangfu Song and others."

"It's ridiculous to say, if I use the army, I will definitely put a military horse here, and then you and I will not be captured."

He stopped talking, and suddenly heard someone laughing loudly not far away: "Xuande, Wentai, it seems that this wave still has some skills." ”

Bo Cai looked for a sound and saw Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei.

Letting him out of the city was naturally a predetermined policy, and one of the links was that the three of them led the army to guard here.

This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Bocai and the others will definitely relax their minds when they escape here, so it is a good position for ambushes.

】

Liu Bei turned his head to look at Cao Cao after hearing Bo Cai's words, and felt quite interesting.

At this time, Bo saw the three of them, how they didn't know how to fall into the ambush, and before he could order the yellow turban that followed him to fight, the surrounding ambushed officers and soldiers had already surrounded him.

Sun Jian shouted: "Until now, I still refuse to surrender!"

"If that's the case, you think you've driven me to a dead end!" Bocai drew his sword and stood up, shouting loudly to the Yellow Turban soldiers to face the battle, "I'd rather fight to the death than surrender on my knees." ”

Sun Jian's face was grim, and he personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, but Liu Bei and the others immediately stayed in place, motionless.

Now Bo Cai is just a trapped beast, and it is enough for Sun Jian to deal with him alone.

In terms of elite, the Han army was already above the Yellow Turban, and now it has the advantage of waiting for work and numbers, so it is just a cup of tea, and most of the Yellow Turbans have been killed.

The original number of thousands of people was barely enough, but now there are only one or two hundred people left, and most of them are Bocai's personal guards.

At this time, these people protected Bocai in the center, and both sides stopped moving for a while.

"You still don't want to surrender?" Liu Bei said loudly.

Bo Cai already knew that he was not fortunate at this time, he put the knife in his hand across his neck, and said in a deep voice: "A certain death may be exchanged for their lives?"

Liu Bei and the three were silent, and after a while, Liu Bei spoke: "Those who descend can avoid death."

Bo Cai looked around when he heard this, "The matter has come to this point, you can wait, and you don't need to bury your life." ”

After the words were gone, he just sighed, "It's a pity that I will never see a great sage and good teacher again in this life." ”

The blade in his hand slashed across his neck, and blood slid down the blade to the ground.

This Yellow Turban general, who led the troops for the first time and defeated Huangfu Song, died here like this.

None of the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers under his command surrendered, but launched a final charge against the officers and soldiers.

The fighting has ceased, and corpses are littered all over the ground.

Liu Bei looked at the battlefield in front of him and sighed after a long time.

"Today I believe in Tian Heng's affairs."
