After making up his mind, Yang Yu said," You two, even if you don't think about the emperor and the court, you have to consider that killing these 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers will inevitably arouse the hatred of the Yellow Turban army towards us. Even the common people of the world will hate us! In the future, if the mobs all over the country respond to Zhang Jiao because of this, the dignitaries in the court will inevitably report to the emperor and use our heads to appease the anger of the people.”
Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong were shocked. "In that case, let my brother take over these Yellow Turban bandits. The two of us will explain the matter of dividing the land to the local county magistrate.”
It was impossible for Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong to take in these captives, as this was related to the Three Rivers and Five Schools.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the infantry and cavalry of the five schools all came from the six prefectures of Si Li. Moreover, they were all children of good families in these six prefectures. The so-called good children were at least people who had cultivated their own land and could support themselves.
Although the soldiers of the three prefectures came from all over the country, they were also from good families.
The original headquarters of the Three Rivers Five Schools were mostly transferred to Lu Zhi.
Although many of Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong's soldiers were added later, they were still children of good families.
As the official army, the two of them did not dare to recruit these commoners who had no land, money, or power.
However, Yang Yu was different. Firstly, he had a different mindset. Secondly, he was confident enough to respond appropriately when questioned by the officials. Moreover, many of his five thousand soldiers were lowlifes around Luoyang, so there was no problem in absorbing the Yellow Turban Army.
However, Yang Yu was a general of the imperial court after all. He dared to go against the law for the sake of the commoners, which once again aroused the admiration of Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong!
Thus, the two of them looked at each other and had the intention to protect Yang Yu.
Yang Yu quickly gathered the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers. After a round of careful selection, he first selected 1,000 of the most powerful young men to charge into his Scarlet Guard. He then got another 10,000 elites, including 5,000 spearmen, 3,000 sword-shieldmen, and 2,000 archers.
With that, Yang Yu had ten thousand soldiers, one thousand Scarlet Guards, the eighteen cavalry of Yanyun, and the fierce general Luo Cheng!
"Finally, it has some scale!"
Yang Yu had reorganized these 10,000 soldiers and trained them for a day. All of them moved in unison, faintly showing the aura of an elite army!
After Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong had a brief interaction with Yang Yu, not only did they not see through him, but they also felt that Yang Yu was becoming more and more mysterious. It was as if he had an endless foundation that they could not see through!
Hearing that Yang Yu was training outside the city, the two of them had been observing him from the city wall.
After a day, both of them had shocked expressions!
"Who is our brother's master? How could he be so proficient in training soldiers! I only saw that he had arranged a small leader for each row on the far left. There were thousands of small leaders. He couldn't have given the military order to those people. He must have placed other military officials among them, but I couldn't find them!”
"That's right! This person's troops were constantly changing formations. If the army did not have a set of tight military rules, it was impossible to accurately convey his intentions! However, I have never discovered who the middle force in this army is! This plan was too brilliant. Even if he wanted to assassinate the leader of the army and disintegrate the structure of the army, it would be difficult to do so!”
The two of them muttered for a long time, but in the end, they were still confused. They had a new understanding of Yang Yu's ability.
After these Yellow Turban captives were properly settled, the three of them gathered together again to discuss the next matter.
"I've already received reports from all sides saying that after the Yellow Turban bandits escaped, they've mainly gathered in Runan, Chenliu, and Pengcheng. Now that the rebel soldiers are scattered, the three of us can divide our forces to pacify them and return to the court as soon as possible.”Huangfu Song said.
"I wonder how many rebel soldiers there are in these three counties?" Zhu Xiong hesitated. We don't have many soldiers. If we split up, we might be surrounded by the bandits.”
Huangfu Song said in a muffled voice," Many Yellow Turban bandits want to go to Jizhou to join Zhang Jiao. Now, most of them are gathered in Chenliu. Runan and Pengcheng have twenty to thirty thousand bandits each. We are well-equipped and can find an opportunity to defeat them." There are sixty or seventy thousand bandits in Chenliu. We might be able to repel them together.”
When Yang Yu heard this, he immediately waved his hand." There's no need for that. The two of you can just lead the troops to pacify Runan and Pengcheng. I'll go to Chenliu and settle the matter here as soon as possible so that I can return to the capital to report."”
Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong were overjoyed." With your bravery and strategy, even if you can't destroy the enemy, you can still protect yourself." If the enemy is too strong and difficult to exterminate, you can wait for the two of us to come and fight again!”
Thus, the three of them clapped their hands and left with their troops.
When he left Changshe,
Yang Yu heard a familiar voice again."
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for triggering a random check-in. Please rush to Chenliu County within half a month to complete the check-in!”
Yang Yu was secretly delighted,[Another mission has been triggered!] Last time, he had obtained Fierce General Luo Cheng. This time, he wondered if there would be other surprises?
With a thirst for talent, Yang Yu led his troops and hurried on their journey. In just a few days, they had entered Chen Liu's territory!
"Ding! Host has entered Chen Liu's territory. Do you want to sign in immediately?”
"Sign in immediately!"
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, Chen Liu has successfully signed in! Mission triggered!"
" Mission Details: Head to the mountain stream, find Dian Wei, and subdue him."
Yang Yu frowned,"Mountain stream?" How was he supposed to find her?
Along the way, there were many mountain streams. When the army passed by a mountain stream, they found many people fighting in front of them. Yang Yu led his troops and approached. He saw a few luxurious carriages and a few rich women cowering on one side. On the other side, a group of ragged mountain bandits were attacking a strong man.
The burly man was eight feet tall and had a strong back and a stocky waist. He held an iron halberd in his hand. Although his clothes were not covering his body and his hair was unkempt, he still waved the halberd vigorously. None of the dozens of bandits who surrounded him could get close!
Luo Cheng watched for a while, his eyes filled with battle intent."My lord! This person's martial arts skills are clearly not inferior to mine! If he could take it for his own use, it would definitely be a great help in the future!”
At this moment, Yang Yu was already observing that person's attribute panel. He wouldn't know if he didn't look, but he was shocked when he saw it!
General: Dian Wei
Strength 102, Commander 21, Intelligence 42, Political 18
[Weapons: Steel Halberd, Steel Short Halberd (9)]
Yang Yu had never expected that he would actually pick up Dian Wei on the march!
"This mission is too simple. Just a random walk and I'll be halfway done! The only thing left is to convince Dian Wei." Yang Yu was secretly happy.
Looking at Dian Wei's downfall, Yang Yu had a rough guess: He must have killed someone in Jiwu County and escaped!
At this moment, Dian Wei was like a child who had fallen into an ice cave. If you gave him a hand, he would be grateful for the rest of his life.
Yang Yu was naturally confident in subduing Dian Wei.
Seeing the chaotic situation ahead, Yang Yu immediately ordered Luo Cheng to lead the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun to take a look.
When the robbers saw the soldiers approaching, they immediately fled in all directions in fear.
The womenfolk hiding around the carriage cried and thanked him.
When Dian Wei committed a crime, he was most afraid of meeting officials. When he saw Yang Yu's group wearing bright armor and clearly from the imperial court, he immediately ran away in fear!
