Dominate Marvel

Personally, the death of Bao Xin, a close friend, made Cao Mengde sad. But in terms of the overall situation, Bao Xin's death in battle is a good thing.

Because except for Bao Xin, no one in Yanzhou can point fingers at Cao Mengde.

First Liu Dai, then Bao Xin, all those who prevented Cao Mengde from fully controlling Yanzhou died.

Moreover, their deaths have nothing to do with Cao Mengde and will not damage Cao Mengde's reputation.

What's this?

This is God's will.

Cheng Yu thought to himself that the lord he worshiped first had people like Zhao Yu who were almost immortals come out to help him, and then there were all kinds of obstacles that blocked the way - due to God's will, the road to heaven was opened. It seems that Cao Mengde was really destined by fate. !

Cao Mengde was in grief and didn't know what Cheng Yu was thinking.

But despite the grief, Cao Mengde felt very clear in his heart.

He also knew that once Bao Xin left, there would be no one in Yanzhou who could stop him.

Cao Mengde is a hero, but at the same time he is a bit of a literary youth. Whether you say he is ruthless or ruthless, he is affectionate and loyal. Or maybe Cao Mengde's headache later came from this - because he thought too much.

"My lord, now is not the time for pain."

Cheng Yu said at this time: "Liang Fu's Yellow Turban..."

When Cao Mengde heard this, his eyes immediately turned red, and he said with hatred: "I will kill all Liang Fu's Yellow Turbans to avenge Yuncheng!"

Cheng Yu shook his head slightly: "Liang Fu's yellow scarf has hundreds of thousands of young and old, young and strong. Do you want to kill them all, my lord?"

Cao Mengde was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and sighed: "Mr. Zhongde is right, I made a mistake."

Then he said: "Yuncheng didn't listen to me and insisted on attacking Liang Fu. If the jar was broken without leaving the well, the general would inevitably die on the battlefield. This was also his own choice..."

So he cheered up and said, "Mr. Zhongde, I'll leave this place to you." He took Cheng Yu's arm and said deeply: "Hundreds of thousands of people must be arranged well and there can be no mistakes."

Cheng Yu bowed and said, "Lord, don't worry."

So Cao Mengde divided his 5,000 soldiers and horses into 2,000 steel-armored elite soldiers and handed them over to the commander Cheng Yu to intimidate and suppress the hundreds of thousands of surrenderers. He took the remaining 1,000 soldiers and horses and went straight to Cheng County. go.

When Cao Mengde first went to Hanoi, there were only more than a thousand men and horses in Zhongmou. Later, Xiahou Yuan returned from Yangzhou first and brought back two thousand, and later Xiahou Dun brought back three thousand. The total number was no more than 6,000. While in Hanoi, Cao Mengde recruited some soldiers and horses, and the number of soldiers and horses reached 8,000. When they came to Juping, after Liu Dai died, there were six or seven thousand people left. He eliminated the old and weak, leaving three thousand people. Excluding the losses in consecutive battles, there were about 10,000 people.

Of these ten thousand people, six thousand were wearing fine steel armor and weapons, and only four thousand were ordinary. It started with five thousand, and then one thousand more were built in a short period of time.

Xiahou Dun brought 5,000 soldiers to Chengxian County to fight against Liang Fu's Yellow Turban. Among them were 1,000 elite soldiers in steel armor. Cao Mengde's 5,000 soldiers and horses were all elite soldiers in steel armor. Previously, Cao Chun was ordered to rescue Bao Xin and take away two thousand, and then give another two thousand to Cheng Yu, who only had one thousand left.

It's only a thousand, but it's still an incredible fighting force.

The armor and weapons made of fine steel made by Zhaozhuang are sharp and strong, which greatly enhances the soldiers' combat capabilities. Even if you only have one thousand, you can control the world. What's more, the opponent is nothing more than a mob?

Leaving two thousand for Cheng Yu was just a precaution. These surrenderers who had been trained by Zhao Yu had long since dared not resist. The blood on the street from the city gate to the county government office has not been cleaned up yet. The collapsed and burned county government office and the white land made these surrenderers dare not think about it anymore. What's more, the thorns among them have been cleared up by Zhao Yu a long time ago. Without the leader to make noise, there will naturally be no chaos. With Cheng Yu's ability, with these two thousand elite soldiers in steel armor, nothing could go wrong.

So Cao Mengde boldly took the remaining one thousand soldiers and horses to Bencheng County.

Zhao Yu's group of more than 20 people ran eastward all night, looking at the North Sea.

Among the more than twenty people, ten of them were the first ten riders to follow them. The remaining dozen or so people are Guan Ming and the dozen or so leaders who were not killed by Zhao Yu.

These people will follow Zhao Yu from now on.

These leaders, no matter whether they still have humanity or not, cannot be released into the army. If there is a leader, there will be a backbone. There are hundreds of thousands of surrenderers. Once there is a backbone, Cao Mengde will be in trouble.

As for the hundreds of people under Guan Ming, they were all handed over to Cheng Yu. Those hundreds of people were not bad, and they were all in one group. Guan Ming is not a beast, nor are the hundreds of people under his command.

"Where did Guan Hai attack Beihai from?"

Zhao Yu asked along the way.

Guan Ming stood on his horse, shook his head and said, "Even the villain doesn't know."

Zhao Yu nodded.

Where does Guan Hai want to fight? I'm afraid he didn't have a specific plan when he sent out troops. This is the distinguishing characteristic of the mob.

"Then let's go to Beihai first, and then we can inquire about it when we get there."

Starting from Bo County, Taishan County, we are going to Beihai, a journey of several hundred miles. We have to pass through the four counties of Fenggao, Yingxian, Mouxian and Laiwu, and then pass through Qi State Linqu to reach Beihai State.

For hundreds of miles, even a thousand-mile horse could not bear to run wildly, so he had to stop and rest for half an hour at every section of the road. It took two days to reach Qi State.

On the contrary, there are traces of Guan Hai's army - Guan Hai's hundreds of thousands of troops passed by, leaving a mess behind, and the time was not long ago, even a blind man would not ignore it.

"It seems that Guan Hai plans to go straight to Juxian County, Beihai Governor's Office."

Zhao Yu reined in the reins, looked ahead, and said to Guan Ming, "Take a few people to see if Guan Hai's army besieges Ju County. Come back and tell me immediately."

Guan Ming looked happy when he heard this: "Here!"

After Guan Ming left, Zhao Yu and the remaining ten or so people took a short rest before continuing forward.

Not long after walking, a horse came running towards me.

Zhao Yu took a closer look and found that although the horse was whipping and galloping, it was not panicking. A spear was hung on the victory hook on his left side, and a large bow was hung on his right side. The quiver on his back was vaguely visible as the horse bullied him.

If it was just like this, Zhao Yu wouldn't pay attention.

The key point is that there is another person lying on the back of this man's horse. Who is it if it's not Guan Ming?

Before Zhao Yu could speak, the man on the galloping horse shouted: "It's urgent, get out of the way quickly. I am Tai Shici of Donglai. The thieves are besieging the city. Juxian County is in danger. I'm going to ask for help. Don't stop me!"

"Tai Shi Ci?"

Zhao Yu was slightly startled, revealing his original expression.

In this moment, Zhao Yu's heart has already turned around several times.

According to the original historical trend, Cao Mengde had a long-standing stalemate with the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans after Liu Dai died in battle. It would be next year, that is, 193, when Cao Mengde took control of Yanzhou and consolidated his power, then Guan Hai would be unable to hold on and change direction. Attack Beihai. It was also here that Taishi Ci began to rise to prominence.

Taishi Ci Shao had a reputation for bravery and unparalleled faith, and was well-known in his hometown. Even Kong Rong knew him. He also sent people to conquer him many times.

However, it was precisely because of one thing that he gained a reputation for unparalleled loyalty, but he also hated the officials in the state and had to go to Liaodong to avoid trouble.

Therefore, Kong Rong failed to conquer many times.

When Guan Hai besieged and attacked Beihai, Taishi Ci happened to return from Liaodong, and his mother persuaded him to help Kong Rong. Kong Rong asked Liu Bei for help in Pingyuan, so he sent Taishi Ci to break through the siege and go to Pingyuan.

But it's only 192 now. Although winter is about to enter, it's not 193 yet.

But in an instant, Zhao Yu figured it out.

Taishi was kind and filial, and he avoided disaster in Liaodong, but his mother was in Donglai. Because of the severe cold in Liaodong and my mother is getting old, she cannot go to Liaodong. Therefore, she must sneak back every year to fulfill her filial piety to her mother.

"Wait a minute."

Zhao Yu pulled his horse to block the road and said, "Are you Taishi Ci, Taishi Ziyi?"

Taishi Ci was skilled with the bow and horse. When he saw Zhao Yu suddenly pulling his horse to block the road, he did not panic. He reined in the reins. Herod's horse was neighing and stopped just in front of Zhao Yu. He looked worried but was not rude and handed over his hand. Said: "Why did this gentleman stop me? Jixian County is under siege..."

Zhao Yu flicked his sleeves and interrupted him, saying: "I know that Juxian County is besieged, and I also know that the Yellow Turban controls Hai. Are you Taishi Ci?"

Taishi Ci took a deep breath and touched the spear on the victory hook: "I am Taishi Ci."

"Okay," Zhao Yu laughed: "Are you going to the plains to ask for help from Liu Bei?"

"How do you know?!"

Taishi Ci was shocked. He drew his horse and retreated a few steps. He took off his spear with a clang and pointed it directly at Zhao Yu: "Are you and the yellow turban bandit from the same group?!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a buzzing sound, and the long hair in Taishi Ci's palm trembled, and a few cold stars appeared, heading straight for Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu could clearly see that among the cold stars, there was a sharp edge, pointing right at his throat.

"Good spear skills."

Zhao Yu smiled slightly, slowly stretched out a finger, and pointed it on the spearhead with great accuracy. There was a click, and the spearhead broke. Taishi Ci felt as if he was struck by thunder, his face turned red, his arms were shaking, and his whole body was numb.

"who are you!"

Taishi Ci was extremely horrified. Is there such a powerful person in this world? !

Zhao Yu retracted his finger and said with a smile: "I stopped you not because of my involvement with Guan Hai, but because of the person on your horse."

Taishi Ci was startled, looked down at the person he had held across his horse, and blurted out: "Do you know this person?!"

Zhao Yu nodded and smiled: "Exactly. You took my entourage, do you think I can stop you?"

Taishi Ci felt embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Then Zhao Yu got off his horse, unhooked Guan Ming from Taishi Ci's horse, and held it between his eyebrows. Guan Ming suddenly woke up and shouted: "You..."

"shut up."

Zhao Yu said: "What's going on?"

So I learned what happened from Guan Ming and Tai Shici.

It turned out that Guan Ming was taking people to the foot of Jixian County. Before he arrived, he saw Taishi Ci galloping towards him.

Taishi Ci also shouted like this. When Guan Ming heard this, he knew that Taishi Ci was Guan Hai's rival. He thought to himself that Guan Hai was his boss, and now that Zhao Yu had come to solve the matter, he planned to keep Tai Shici here and not let him ask for help.

But as soon as he started, he was blinded.

How could any of them be Tai Shici's rival?

Fortunately, Guan Ming didn't say that he was a Yellow Turban, and Taishi Ci didn't do anything cruel. Everyone else was knocked unconscious. Guan Ming was caught by Taishi Ci and planned to stay away from Jixian. When the horse is tired and the man is tired, he will ask him again. reason.
