Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Expedition

Seven days later, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun began to count troops.

Each of them was equipped with two adjutant generals on the left and right, as well as five captains of the Northern Military Academy, and dozens of Sima and Qianfu commanders.

The left and right lieutenants who followed Lu Zhi were called Liu Song and Cheng Ning.

Huangfu Song's left and right lieutenants are called Wang Fengxing and Gan Mo.

Zhu Jun's left and right lieutenants are called Lu Tian and Ge Chuanyou.

At the same time, the two lieutenant generals under Lu Zhi also led the soldiers under their respective command to participate in the team.

The three of them also transferred a lieutenant from each of the five battalions to follow him, and the five lieutenants were in charge of the tun cavalry, the Yue cavalry, the infantry, the Changshui, and the shooting sound.

Lu Zhi's troops totaled more than 40,000 people, and the allocation of various troops was average, and after the troops were ordered, they went directly to the direction of Jizhou.

The combined strength of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun was only about 40,000 people, and most of them were cavalry. The two of them looked at Lu Zhi's mighty team, with a wry smile on their faces, and then sent their troops together in the direction of Yuzhou.

After entering the territory of Yuzhou, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun also divided their troops.

Zhu Jun began the campaign with Yangzhai County, Yingchuan County.

Huangfu Song took Chenliu County and Weishi County as the starting point.

When Zhu Jun learned that there was a force of yellow turban thieves in Yingchuan County who were causing chaos everywhere, and its leader had some skills, and many places in Yingchuan County had been captured, so he planned to meet this person.

The forces of the Yellow Turban Thieves encountered along the way were all annihilated, and although they encountered a small group of Yellow Turban forces at the beginning, they also greatly boosted the morale of their own soldiers.

A few days later, the scouts sent out finally got back to their seats.

"General! The scout came to report that there were moth thieves near Xu County, and their team was huge, so it should be the group you were looking for! ”

Hearing the report, Zhu Jun nodded and said, "Go and get the map!" ”

The deputy general, Lu Tian, hurriedly took the map of Yuzhou and marked the location of Yingchuan County.

"Xu County and Yingyin County are not too far apart, and their range of activities is probably in these locations, they don't know about our situation, and we don't know about their situation."

Looking at the position pointed out by Lu Tian, Zhu Jun also nodded.

"What's the situation in Yingyin County now?"

Lu Tian replied: "Yingyin County has not been captured yet, but the people in the county are panicking. ”

After pondering for a while, Zhu Jun made a decision, "In this case, you lead half of the cavalry to Yingyin County first, and if you encounter the Yellow Turban forces to destroy them according to the situation, you can also check the opponent's strength by the way." ”

"No!"

With a team of 20,000 people, it takes a lot of time to travel lightly. Let the cavalry go to Yingyin County to station first, if there is any situation, the speed of the cavalry can also quickly deliver the message.

After Lu Tian selected the generals and troops, he bid farewell to Zhu Jun and led the cavalry towards Yingyin County.

A few days later, Zhu Jun's army arrived in Yingyin County.

Lu Tian told Zhu Jun some information that he had discovered recently, but it was all inconsequential.

After a day of repairs, a team of 1,000 people was left to garrison Yingyin County, and the team continued to march towards Xu County.

……

"Boss, the spies have sent news that the imperial court has sent troops to conquer us."

is called the boss, it is the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai, or one of Zhang Jiao's henchmen, but he is determined to overthrow the imperial court.

"It's been more than a month since the troops were dispatched, and this court is really slow."

Bo Cai was a little disdainful, thinking that there were still intrigues in the court.

"And two armies have entered the territory of Yuzhou, one of them is coming towards us, and now they have arrived in Yingchuan County."

"He Man, don't gasp next time you speak. In that case, we'll have to get to know them. ”

Seeing his boss's attitude, He Man hurriedly said: "Boss, this is an elite soldier sent by the imperial court, and the equipment is much better than ours, and it is not comparable to the local garrison. ”

Bo Cai thought about it too, and secretly said that this time was too smooth, but he still said calmly: "Well, it makes sense." I wonder how many people there are? ”

"The spies reported that there were about 20,000 people."

"About 20,000 people? How are they armed? ”

In the past month, the number of people has expanded to more than 20,000 people, and about half of the soldiers have no armor.

"The armaments are all on the baggage trucks, and they cannot be detected."

Although he didn't get an answer, Bo knew that the other party's armament must be much better than his own.

But if they can take the other side down this time, then their armament will become their own.

After thinking about it, Bo decided to call the other leaders over to discuss, and said, "Go and call the others as well." ”

Hearing this, He Man turned around and went out. He also knew that this time he would face the imperial army, no longer the local garrisons before.

After several leaders came to the tent, Bo told the news he had obtained before, and everyone present was stunned, but he didn't expect the army of the imperial court to look up to him so much, and he actually ran directly to his side.

"Everyone, let's talk about it, is there any good way?" After speaking, Bo Cai looked at a few people.

A young man spoke, "Boss, are they really here for us?" ”

Bo Cai didn't speak, but a big man next to this person smiled and said, "He Yi, do you mean that those people want to enter the central part of Yuzhou from us, and then be surrounded and killed by us?" Fools? ”

He Yi also felt that this seemed unreasonable, but he didn't know how to justify, so he was speechless for a while.

Although they are not the only ones in this Yingchuan County, the most powerful of them belongs to them.

Another person opened his mouth and said: "Wu Ba, why do you always target He Yi, he just said his opinion. ”

Seeing that someone helped him out of the siege, He Yi looked at Huang Shao gratefully.

Huang Shao signaled that he didn't have to care, and then continued: "It's only a matter of time before this imperial court sends troops, and it's not so easy for them to come and attack us, and the places they pass through will definitely encounter other people." Don't forget that there are bandits and bandits who have to survive, and maybe they can help us. ”

Wu Ba pouted and said, "Help us?" Are you kidding? Just their little people, it's not enough for others to stuff their teeth. ”

The people around Huang Shao nodded and said, "Wu Ba is right, that person is not enough." “

Seeing that someone agreed with his statement, Wu Ba patted this person on the shoulder and said, "Brother Liu Bi still thinks the same as me." ”

Liu Bi took Wu Ba's hand away, and in Wu Ba's puzzled gaze, he said with a smile: "That's what I said, but it's not useless. ”

Wu Ba originally thought that Liu Pi had the same idea as himself, but he didn't expect He Man to agree with what Huang Shao said.

Seeing this, Bo Cai stared straight at Wu Ba.

The latter felt a sharp gaze looking at him, and found that it was the boss who looked at him, and his eyes revealed a warning meaning. I knew that I should focus on the overall situation now, so I had to endure my temperament.

Seeing that Wu Baxiao had stopped, Bo Cai motioned to Liu Bi to tell his plan.

Liu Bi said that he felt that these mountain bandits could be used, after all, these people were not good at it. Moreover, among some of the leaders under his command, many of them were the leaders of the mountain kings before, and they could help lobby and let these mountain bandits help us help.

Hearing He Man's plan, Bo Cai immediately asked a few people to go down to arrange it, and at the same time left Wu Ba behind.

Wu Ba looked at Bo Cai a little aggrieved, he followed Bo Cai from the beginning. Just now, Bo Cai stared at himself like that, which made him very angry in his heart.

"You should learn from them well, and use your brains to do things, now is the time to fight, not the time when we were mountain bandits before."

Hearing what Bo Cai said, Wu Ba turned his head and answered.

Seeing that Wu Ba was still like this, Bo Cai said angrily: "Get out." Remember to arrange things. ”

Hearing this, Wu Ba left directly.

Each of them instructed several leaders to contact the bandit leaders nearby. A few days have passed, and they have all received responses. Anyway, it was just a feint to harass me, and I felt that there should be no problem, and there was something to divide afterwards, so I agreed to participate in this matter.
