The next morning, Xun Zhen had just finished his breakfast under the service of his servants when Xun You rushed over.
"Gongda, you've lost your composure. Has the Yellow Turban thief arrived?”
"That's right, Wen Yuan. There's no time to lose. You'd better come with me to the city wall.”
"Alright, I'll do it. How is the situation now?"
"This is very bad. The Yellow Turbans are extremely powerful. There are probably no less than 100,000 of them!
Moreover, we also discovered a very disturbing phenomenon…"
"Oh? What is this phenomenon?"
"This, this…these Yellow Turban thieves are not afraid of death at all!”
Xun You paused for a moment before revealing a rare look of fear.
"Even if this group of Yellow Turban bandits had their bellies pierced and their throats slashed, as long as they still had a breath left, they would not hesitate to pounce on the soldiers guarding the city!”
"Is that so…"
Hearing this, Xun Zhen could not help but raise his eyebrows, and a trace of contemplation flashed across his eyes.
Soon, the group arrived at the city wall.
"Wen Yuan, you're here."
Seeing Xun Zhen's group walking up under the lead of the soldiers, a man with a long beard on the city wall, who looked to be around 30 years old, immediately turned around and greeted them.
His name was Zhong Yao, and his character was Chang. He was born in the Zhong family of Changshe in Yingchuan. Like Xun You, he was one of the few celebrities in Yingchuan.
Many of the aristocrats in Yingchuan were unable to go out to be officials because of the party ban.
However, this did not mean that these gentry clans had completely lost their influence in Yingchuan.
In fact, these aristocratic families had sent some of their elites into the various departments of Yingchuan County.
In the form of an advisor, he could influence the entire situation in Yingchuan, either openly or secretly.
Xun You was like this, and so was Zhong Yao.
"Yuanchang, what's the situation? Is there any change?"
Xun You asked first.
"It's very bad. The Yellow Turban Army is fighting with no regard for their lives. It won't be long before our soldiers guarding the city will be wiped out by them. We have to think of a plan now.”
With that, Zhong Yao turned his gaze to Xun Zhen.
Even though Xun Zhen's reputation in Yingchuan was not as good as Xun Yu and Xun You's.
However, judging from his private interactions, this person's talent was not inferior to Xun Yu and Xun You!
In terms of strategy, he was even better!
Xun Zhen walked to the side of the city wall and stood beside the battlements, looking down.
What he saw, apart from the vast Ying River in the distance, was the Yellow Turban Army.
They were densely packed and covered the sky…
Like a yellow tide, wave after wave surged towards the walls of Yingchuan County.
No one present could ignore the soaring fighting spirit.
"I underestimated the Yellow Turban Army before.
However, as long as there were enough people and they were fearless, it would be enough to cause a qualitative change.”
"Young Master, why are these people not afraid of death?”
Hearing this, Wan 'er's beautiful eyes immediately looked at Xun Zhen and asked curiously.
"It's very simple. It's because of faith! They believed in Zhang Jiao, in the peaceful world that Zhang Jiao had proposed!
Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Heh, it seems that all of you in the hall have really been puppets and clay embryos these years.
Other than going to court and retiring from court, there was probably no one who really did anything.
With such a self-preservation attitude, it was no wonder that he had not succeeded in killing the Ten Attendants of the Everlasting Peace!”
"Young Master, be careful with your words."
"Haha…"
"Wen Yuan, do you have a plan now?"
At this moment, Xun You walked over to Xun Zhen and asked in a low voice.
When will the imperial court's army arrive?"
"Three days later."
"Three more days…I can't last three days in this situation.”
Looking at the morale of the surrounding soldiers, Xun Zhen could not help but frown.
"How many more guards can be transferred out of the county capital?”
"About 300 people is still possible.”
Zhong Yao immediately replied.
"In that case, I have a plan that might work.”
Upon hearing Xun Zhen's words, Zhong Yao and Xun You, who were frowning, could not help but feel excited. They hurriedly said,
"What plan? Wen Yuan, hurry up and tell me!"
"Do the two of you see the Yingshui in the distance?”
Zhong Yao and Xun You were both wise men, and they pointed in the direction of Yingshui.
Instantly, the two of them couldn't help but feel happy. Then, they revealed ecstatic expressions.
Zhong Yao pointed at Xun Zhen, shook his head, and laughed.
"Wen Yuan, I wasn't wrong. Your strategy and wisdom are truly rare in the world. I'm afraid that even Marquis Liu Zhang Liang is only so-so in this world! You, Xun Wenyuan, will be the first to take credit for this success!”
Xun You also smiled and said,"
"Wen Yuan is usually too low-key. Otherwise, the number one celebrity in the world would definitely be Wen Yuan.”
"Heh, so what if you're the number one celebrity in the world? Could it be that he can still elect filial piety and honesty for us, the families that are banned by the party?”
Xun Zhen sneered.
Upon hearing Xun Zhen's words, Zhong Yao immediately vowed,"
"Wen Yuan, don't worry. After this Yellow Turban incident, we scholars will definitely compete with the Ten Attendants!
At that time, in Yingchuan, besides Wenyuan, we scholars will not accept anyone who elects filial piety and honesty!”
