Chapter 350: Xu Chu recognizes his master and captures Zhang Ning alive
After finishing Yu Jin, the next natural step was Xu Chu. Qin Hao didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point.
“Xu Zhuangshi, you can’t refuse this time.”
Qin Hao smiled and invited Xu Chu: "How about joining the Yanmen Army and we fight against the Yellow Turbans together?"
Xu Chu smiled awkwardly. Qin Hao had written him an invitation letter before, but because Qin Hao was not well-known at the time, Xu Chu didn't pay attention. But now it seems that he was really ignorant at that time.
Xu Chu actually wanted to join the Yanmen Army, but after thinking for a while, he still refused: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to join, but that my brother has joined the Yellow Turban Army, and if I join the Yanmen Army, I'm afraid It will bring criticism to the Yanmen Army."
"How can I, the Yanmen Army, care about some criticism. However, although your Xu family is not a big family, it is also a wealthy family in Pei State. Why does your brother Xu Ding help the Yellow Turbans?"
When Ran Min on the side heard this, he immediately exclaimed: "Are you Xu Ding's younger brother?"
Xu Chu glanced at Ran Min and asked, "Who is the general?"
“I am Ran Min, I have fought against brother Ling before.”
When Xu Chu heard this, his face remained calm, but he was shocked in his heart.
Xu Chu had heard of the fact that Qin Hao used 5,000 cavalry to defeat Xiang Yan's 50,000-strong army in front of Hulao Pass.
In that battle, the most eye-catching performance was not Zhao Yun who shot and killed Xiang Yu alone, but Ran Min who fought alone against Zhang Jiao's generals.
Dian Wei and Xu Ding are recognized among the Yellow Turbans as fierce generals second only to Xiang Yu, but Ran Min can suppress two people with one person. It can be seen that even if Ran Min is not as good as Xiang Yu, the gap is definitely not too big.
As his younger brother Xu Chu knows Xu Ding's strength, and two masters like Xu Ding are no match for Ran Min, and he is certainly no match for him either.
Yanmen Group is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon. Xu Chu thought to himself.
"Your brother is a hero, and you are not a bad boy either. The Xu family is really full of outstanding people." Ran Min smiled heartily and said: "It's a pity that we are hostile, otherwise I would definitely have a drink with your eldest brother."
Xu Chu sighed when he heard this: "My brother had to join the Yellow Turban for the sake of the family."
Qin Hao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there any unavoidable reason for this?"
In Xu Chu’s subsequent narration, Qin Hao finally understood why Xu Ding, who was born in a wealthy family, submitted to the Yellow Turbans.
During the half-year truce between the Yellow Turbans and the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turbans focused their main efforts on purging the aristocratic families in their territory, and Xujiazhuang in Peiguoqiao County was naturally included.
Unlike other families who stubbornly resisted, although the children of the Xu family were brave and warlike, the head of the Xu family wisely chose not to resist and handed over all the family's grain reserves.
But even so, Xiang Yan, who was responsible for cleaning up Yuzhou, was not ready to let the Xu family go.
After Xiang Yan heard about the reputation of the Xu family disciples as being brave and good at fighting, he forced the Xu family disciples to join the Yellow Turbans and fight with the army. Naturally, this request was strongly opposed by the Xu family.
The Xu family's children are indeed worthy of their reputation as brave and good at fighting. However, in the ensuing battle, they directly severely damaged the Yellow Turbans.
Of course, the Xu family suffered a lot of losses, and many direct descendants died in the battle, including Xu Chu’s second uncle and third brother.
The Yellow Turbans have a million-strong army, while the Xu family only has a few hundred people. If the Xu family confronts the Yellow Turbans, they are definitely seeking death.
Just when the Xu family's life and death were at stake, Xu Chu's brother Xu Ding stepped forward and took the initiative to join the Yellow Turbans.
At that time, the Yellow Turbans were holding a military competition to select generals for Zhang Jiao's bodyguards.
Xu Ding saw the opportunity and took the initiative to participate. He sang vigorously all the way and never failed until he met Dian Wei.
The two later became Zhang Jiao's generals on his left and right, and Zhang Jiao also cherished Xu Ding's bravery, so he pardoned the Xu family.
"Too many members of my Xu family died at the hands of the Yellow Turbans, and my eldest brother joined the Yellow Turbans out of desperation. It was originally just a stopgap measure, but who wants to see my eldest brother to let him leave after everyone in the clan hides in the mountains?" When he was wearing a yellow turban, his eldest brother refused to leave at all." When he said this, Xu Chu's tiger eyes turned red, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
"My eldest brother used to hate the Yellow Turbans the most. He once said that he would kill Zhang Jue to avenge his second uncle and the others. But now he has not only forgotten his hatred, but is still trying his best to protect Zhang Jue, the enemy... It must be Zhang Jue, the evil spirit, who instilled in eldest brother Ecstasy, for sure.”
Hearing this, Qin Hao couldn't help but secretly sigh. Even a determined and hateful person like Xu Ding, Zhang Jiao was able to completely bring him back. The cleverness of his methods was simply impressive.
Qin Hao patted Xu Chu on the shoulder and comforted him: "Brother your courage in dedicating himself to the family really makes me admire you. I think the reason why he is unwilling to leave must have some last resort. After defeating the Yellow Turban, what are you asking? If so, he will definitely say it.”
Hearing this, Xu Chu raised his head and asked with a wry smile: "Defeat the Yellow Turbans? Will there really be such a day?"
"Most definitely."
Qin Hao nodded and said firmly: "I have received accurate information. Zhang Jue's body cannot last long. As long as he can hold on until Zhang Jue dies, the Yellow Turbans will definitely fight on their own and be defeated one by one by our army."
Qin Hao couldn't tell others about Guiguzi's plan, so he could only use it to encourage others and strengthen their determination to continue resisting.
"Yes, the eldest brother must have his own reasons. The second uncle and their enemies cannot forget the eldest brother."
Xu Chu didn’t know whether what Qin Hao said was true or false, but what Qin Hao said was what he was most willing to believe.
Xu Chu looked at Qin Hao and said seriously: "Champion Hou, are you really willing to accept me, someone who has something to do with the Yellow Turban general?"
"How could Qin Hao not be happy with a fierce general like Zhong Kang? As long as Zhong Kang you are willing to join our Yanmen Army and make great contributions in the future wars, after defeating the Yellow Turban, I can guarantee that your brother will be forgiven."
Hearing this, Xu Chu no longer had any worries, and immediately knelt down and shouted: "Xu Chu swears to be loyal to the lord to the death."
“Ding dong, the host has surrendered to General Ban Xu and Chu, triggering the main mission to recruit talented people.”
"Recruiting Talents: Every time the host conquers a balanced character or local talent, he can choose to get a divine weapon card or a mount card. If the loyal talent has two attributes exceeding 90, he can get two, and so on. If there are five attributes Over 90 you get five.”
“Yu Jin’s dual attributes exceeded 90, Xu Chu’s single attribute exceeded 90, and the host can choose three cards for self-help.”
“Two mount cards and one magic weapon card.”
…
Qin Hao was naturally in a good mood after subduing Yu Jin and Xu Chu. At this time, Zhao Yun came over and said, "Young Master, we have been delayed here for a long time. Shouldn't we go to Kaifeng?"
After breaking out of the siege, Qin Hao did not escape directly, but stopped to rest after escaping dozens of miles away, which made Zhao Yun a little puzzled.
"Not urgent."
Qin Hao was not prepared to explain. He smiled calmly and said, "It's not too late to leave after I take off Zhang Jiao's thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket."
…
Huangchao Camp.
“Report...to the general that urgent military information has been delivered.”
Huang Chao frowned. After reading it, he suddenly felt dizzy and almost stopped standing.
Bu Bo Shang wrote: Miss Zhang Ning failed in the ambush and was captured alive. I hope General Huang Chao can rescue her quickly.
