Jizhou Yellow Turban Camp
On this day, Zhang Jiao had nothing to do. He had lunch with Zhang Ning and Zheng Gong in the tent.
"Ning 'er, Gong' er, how have you been recently?”Zhang Jiao asked kindly,
"Reporting to father-in-law, that's great. However, recently, that old Lu Zhi has been hiding in the camp all day with a 'no battle sign', not wanting to fight to the death with us.”Zheng Gong said as he ate.
"Husband, it's rare for us to have the time to eat together. Let's not talk about military affairs.”Zhang Ning sat beside Zheng Gong and said softly.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes. Gong Quan will listen to Madam.”
At this moment, a Yellow Turban soldier suddenly rushed into the camp, causing Zhang Ning to frown and anger to rise on her face.
However, before Zhang Ning could get angry, Zheng Gong slammed the table beside him and shouted," Could it be that old man Lu Zhi has brought his troops in? What a mess!"
Zheng Gong's voice was as loud as thunder. The Yellow Turban soldier was so frightened that his legs went weak and he wanted to kneel down. However, this person was also tough. He bit his tongue with his teeth and forced himself to not kneel down.
Fortunately, Zhang Jiao was beside him, so he stopped him by saying," Gong 'er, judging from his expression, it must be an urgent military situation. Listen…" After saying that, Zhang Jiao turned around and said to the Yellow Turban soldier," That canal marshal has a fiery temper. Don't blame him. What do you want? Tell me."
When the man saw this, he cupped his fists and said," Teacher, there's news from Yingchuan. They say…"
The man paused for a moment and looked at Zheng Gong. He gritted his teeth and said," They said that Divine Envoy Zhang Mancheng died in Wancheng!”
"What? How is that possible?"
When Zheng Gong heard this, his hair stood on end and he slammed his palm on the table. Zheng Gong's palm actually sank deep into the table made of hard wood. It could be seen how powerful his palm was!
Zhang Jiao's face turned green and white, and finally, he let out a long sigh.
Only Zhang Ning was calm, as if the person who died was an unimportant person.
In the end, Zheng Gong asked in anger,"
"…Who killed him?"
"According to the report, Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang's Wancheng, set up an ambush and used Wancheng as bait to lure the army into the city. Then, the 2,000 cavalrymen who were lying in ambush outside the city charged out and killed…the Divine Envoy.”
Zheng Gong was so angry that he laughed. Good, good! What a good Qin Jie!"
Zheng Gong turned around and bowed to Zhang Jiao." Teacher, please allow me to lead my Yellow Turban Warriors to Nanyang. I will take Qin Jie's head and present it to you!"”
Just as Zhang Jiao was deep in thought, another Yellow Turban soldier ran into the tent." Heaven Duke, bad news! The leaders Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao who went to attack Youzhou were killed by the Han army!" Only 3,000 of them were left!"
It was really like 'when the house leaks, it rains overnight, and when the boat is late, it gets a headwind!'，Zhang Jiao couldn't help but remain silent for a long time. Zheng Gong didn't know what to say either. Zhang Jiao waved his hand to dismiss the two of them. The Second Yellow Turban was about to walk out.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Gong suddenly said,
"What are your names?"
"Liao Hua!"
"Bian Xi!"
"The two of you will be under my jurisdiction from today onwards. Go and find Zhou Cang.”
After the two of them walked out, Zheng Gong thought for a while but could not think of anything. He turned his head to Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning saw Zheng Gong's questioning gaze and knew that he could not eat anymore. He said," Father, the most important thing now is the road to the Road of Peace. Since the Han army in Youzhou could kill Cheng Yuanzhi, I'm afraid that reinforcements from Youzhou are not far away. Why not find a strong city to defend it? It would be safe from the Han army's pincer attack."”
Zhang Jiao hurriedly asked,"My son is right. Where should we go?"”
"Guangzong!"
Youzhou Prefecture
"Hahaha, nephew, this Commandant Zou Jing told me that we were able to defeat the Yellow Turban bandits in this battle all because of the bravery of my two sworn brothers. That's all!"
Liu Yan, the Governor of Youzhou, held a banquet in his residence and invited Liu Guan, Zhang, Zou Jing and other generals. Liu Yan was very concerned about Liu Bei, and his love for Liu Bei was beyond words. However, Liu Bei always returned Liu Yan's favor and humiliation without being shocked. Although Liu Yan did not look surprised, he was already slightly angry in his heart. At this moment, Liu Bei stood up and said,
"Recently, I heard that General Lu Zhi is fighting with the leader of the bandits, Zhang Jiao, in Jizhou. I have been under Lu Zhi's tutelage in the past and would like to go and help him.”
Liu Bei bowed to the end. Although Liu Yan wanted to be angry, he had nothing to say and could only wave his hand.
"Jian Zi! I wanted to promote you, but I didn't expect you to look down on me.……Lu Zhi, hmph, fair and dignified, strict but inflexible! Liu Xuande, although you have great talent, you have chosen the wrong person this time.”
Liu Bei and the other two were on the march.
"Big brother, isn't it good for us to stay in Youzhou? Moreover, the Wuhuan of Youzhou often invade the border of our Great Han Dynasty.”On the right, Xuande's younger brother, Zhang Fei, asked Liu Bei in confusion. Liu Bei, who was riding a white horse in front, did not answer Zhang Fei's words. He looked up at the sky silently.
"Chief Yun, do you know why I went to Jizhou?”
Liu Yunchang listened to Liu Bei's words, slightly raised his phoenix eyes, put the book into his arms, and stroked his long beard.
"Yes and no. I just want to use this pair of eyes to confirm that this big man hasn't lost his deer. It proves that our ideals are not wrong!”
Liu Bei did not turn his head. He looked up at the sky and explained to his two younger brothers.
Our dreams? " Big brother, Chief Yun isn't as high as big brother yet. But before that, I'll let Chief Yun use the Cold and Elegant Saw in his hand to slowly search for it," Guan Yu thought to himself. Without saying anything, he took out the " Spring and Autumn " from his bosom and continued to read.
However, Zhang Fei didn't think too much about it. He shouted," I don't know anything about 'peace in the world'. Anyway, since I'm following my elder brother, I'll be his elder brother for the rest of my life. I, Zhang Fei, will go wherever my elder brother goes. This Snake Spear will fight only for my elder brother!"”
" Hahaha, that's right! That's right! As long as the three of us are together, even if we can't realize our ambitions immediately, we will one day! It will come true sooner or later!"
When Liu Bei heard Zhang Fei's words, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Guan Yu, then at Zhang Fei, and suddenly burst into laughter. Liu Bei stretched out his hands, and both of them were immediately held. Liu Bei did not even look at them, but rode his horse forward. The three brothers galloped on the road to Jizhou, laughing loudly.
Jizhou Han Army Camp
"What did you say? Huangfu Song and Zhu Xi were trapped in Changshe! Zhang Liang was brave! The mournful soldiers charged into the formation? Alas, the Yellow Turban bandits have so many fierce generals. First, there was the Mad Dragon Zheng Gong, and then there was the Human Duke Zhang Liang. It's a pity that our Han army has countless soldiers, but no one can be compared with these two bandits!”
Lu Zhi and Gongsun Zan sat in the tent. Lu Zhi couldn't help but sigh. Now Jizhou has not been pacified, and Yingchuan has been defeated again. When can the Yellow Turban be pacified? Gongsun Zan stood up and said,"
"Teacher, why do you have to hurt your own morale? Now that the Imperial Court has sent reinforcements, our Great Han soldiers are brave. Although the Yellow Turbans won for a moment, they are tough and easy to break. They will not last long. However, that Zheng Gong…I think he looks very familiar, like…Uncle Kang Cheng?”
