Although he had to send his clansmen to work for the moth bandits, Zhen Xian had already thought of a way to deal with it.
These four clansmen had already become abandoned children. When the time came, they could just announce that they were expelled from the Zhen family.
This way, the actions of Zhen Ling, Zhen Wen, Zhen Fu, and Zhen Zhao had nothing to do with the Zhen Clan.
The people sent by Zhen Xian soon arrived at the Provincial Governor's Estate.
Zhou Cheng asked them to count the rations and supplies.
As for Zhao Chen, Zhao Yuan, and the others from the Zhao Clan, Zhou Cheng had them do the same thing.
If the Zhao Clan and the Zhen Clan had the same or similar results, that would naturally be good.
If the results of the two families 'statistics were very different, it would prove that someone was fooling him.
As for the people who had joined the various families, Zhou Cheng also arranged for them to register their names, ancestral home, parents, brothers and sisters.
Without a doubt, this was a complicated and time-consuming task.
Although in this era, the lives of moth thieves were like weeds, they would leave their names behind. Zhou Cheng did not want them to die without even leaving their names on their tombstones.
At the same time, Zhou Cheng's army continued to loot the city.
It was necessary to take the entire city's population. At the same time, they had to take all the food in the city away.
The moth bandits knew the pain of starvation, and they did not know when they would be able to raid another city.
……
The news of Ye City being breached reached Luoyang.
However, Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han Ling, was bedridden yesterday. His body was getting weaker by the day.
The imperial physicians in the palace had already treated him and prescribed medicine, but the effect was not good.
In fact, Liu Hong was just overindulging in alcohol and sex. If he had abstained earlier, his body could have been slowly recuperated. However, it was too late to say this now.
Liu Hong yawned and listened to the report listlessly during the morning court session.
"Your Majesty, the moth bandits broke into Ye City yesterday. The governor of Jizhou, Wang Wenzu, asked the court for help.”
"Your Majesty, the rebel army of Liangzhou broke into Jin City and killed the Governor of Jin City, Chen Yi.”
The two ministers reported two pieces of bad news.
Liu Hong's pale face was even more frightening because of his anger.
Zhang Rang said," Wang Wenzu still has the face to ask the court for help. Even Ye City has been breached by the moth bandits. This servant suggests that Wang Wenzu be removed from his post."”
"Yes." Liu Hong nodded. Wang Kao's ability was indeed insufficient.
He Jin came out and said," Your Majesty, the moth bandits are just a minor illness. They are of no concern. However, the Liangzhou rebels have tens of thousands of cavalry. They can invade the three auxiliary areas at any time and invade the royal gardens and mausoleums. They should be pacified first. Therefore, I suggest sending Zuo Che Qi to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion. As for the moth bandits who have fled to Jizhou, I will send Bei Zhong Lang to suppress them.”
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Sikong, Taiwei, and Situ all agreed.
In their eyes, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang were all dead. Zhou Cheng, who was trying to avenge the three of them, was just a boorish man who couldn't do anything. Besides, Lu Zhi was more than enough to deal with Zhou Cheng.
……
Zhou Cheng's army quickly left Ye City in the evening.
When they left Ye City, other than a few aristocratic families who were willing to send people to Zhou Cheng's tent, the rest of the aristocratic families, celebrities, and people all followed the army north.
At this moment, Zhou Cheng's team had grown to hundreds of thousands of people. It was majestic and spectacular.
However, the speed of the army was slightly slower.
Three days after Zhou Cheng left Ye City, Huangfu Song's army arrived at Liyang County.
The current Li Yang was already long empty.
Wang Kao asked the aristocratic families and commoners of the fifteen counties of Wei County to drive their livestock and bring all their food to Ye City.
This was to strengthen the walls and clear the wilderness. They wanted to exhaust the moth bandits to death and let them be defeated due to lack of food.
However, the idea was good, but there was a big problem in implementation.
Clearly, Wang Kao and the soldiers in Ye City were a bunch of idiots.
Ye City had been breached by the Moth Bandits, and the grain and livestock in Ye City had been seized by the Moth Bandits. Now that the Moth Bandits had sufficient food and grass, they could travel without any worries.
"Wang Wenzu misunderstood me! Sigh!"
Huangfu Song held his breath and slammed his fist on the table.
Wenzu was Wang Kao's character.
Wang Kao lost Ye City and revived the dying moth bandits.
Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and the others were silent.
Although the atmosphere was quite depressing, Liu Bei actually wanted to laugh.
Because his teacher, Lu Zhi, was coming to Jizhou, and his bleak career had once again seen light.
"Barbarians of Liangzhou!"
Huangfu Song let out a long sigh.
In fact, if it was just the moth thieves, it would not be difficult to deal with.
After all, the Moth Bandits did not have the time to reorganize their troops. Although they had a huge advantage in numbers, they were still a motley crew.
With Huangfu Song's tens of thousands of elite soldiers, they would be wiped out in a single battle.
However, the barbarians in Liangzhou rebelled and came with great momentum. A few days ago, the Liangzhou Military Governor was in charge of Bian Yun and killed the Governor of Jincheng, Chen Yi. His army had already reached tens of thousands of people, and they had already surrounded the state capital, Ji County.
If Ji County was conquered, the rebellion in Liangzhou would expand further, and the number of rebels would snowball.
The imperial court had already sent someone to inform Huangfu Song to prepare to lead the army to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion.
"Forget it." Huangfu Song shook his head and said," I will lead the army to Liangzhou tomorrow. The two of you will lead your troops to Julu and assist the Governor of Julu, Guo Dian, to defend the city. We will wait for the General of Beizhong to eliminate these moth bandits."”
"Here." Cao Cao and Liu Bei said in unison.
