Chapter 775
Personally, the death of Bao Xin, a close friend, made Cao Mengde sad. But as far as the overall situation is concerned, Bao Xin's death in battle was a good thing and couldn't be better.
Because no one in Yanzhou could criticize Cao Mengde except Bao Xin.
First Liu Dai, then Bao Xin, those who prevented Cao Mengde from taking full control of Yanzhou, all died.
And their deaths have nothing to do with Cao Mengde and will not damage Cao Mengde's reputation.
What is this?
This is God's will.
Cheng Yu thought to himself that the lord he worshipped, first, someone like Zhao Yu who was almost immortal came out to help, and then there were all kinds of blocking stones one after another because of God's will, let go of heaven-spanning grand dao, it seems that Cao Mengde is really blessed!
Cao Mengde was sad and didn't know what Cheng Yu was thinking.
But in addition to grief, Cao Mengde's heart is very clear.
He also knew that once Bao Xin left, there would be no one who could stop him in Yanzhou.
Cao Mengde is an ambitious and ruthless character, but at the same time he is a bit literary, saying that he is vicious and merciless, affectionate and righteous, this is all him. Or maybe it was because of Cao Mengde's headache later that he thought too much.
"My lord, now is not the time for pain."
Cheng Yu said at this time: "Liang Fu's yellow turban..."
Cao Mengde heard it , his eyes suddenly turned red, and he said bitterly: "I will kill Liang Fu Huangjin to avenge Yuncheng!"
Cheng Yufaintly shook the head: "Liangfu Huangjin, young and old, several hundred Thousand , do you want to kill the lord?"
Cao Mengde listened for a while, then calmed down, sighed then said: "Mr. Zhongde is right, I made a blunder."
then said: "Yuncheng doesn't listen to me and insists on attacking Liang Fu. The earthen pot will not break away from the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle. This is also his own choice..."
So excited Spirit: "Mr. Zhongde, I'll leave this to you." He held Cheng Yu's arm and said deeply: "several hundred thousand people, make arrangements well, and make no mistakes."
Cheng Yu Bowing and bowing: "Don't worry, my lord."
So Cao Mengde divided his 5,000 soldiers and horses into 2,000 steel armored soldiers and handed them over to the commander of Cheng Yu to deter the several hundred thousand descendants. With only a thousand soldiers and horses left, he went straight to Chengxian.
In the early days of Cao Mengde, when he went to Hanoi, he was in Zhongmou with only a thousand men. Later, Xiahou Yuan returned from Yangzhou first, bringing back 2,000 yuan, and then Xiahou Dun brought back 3,000 yuan. A total of just over 6,000 people. While in Hanoi, Cao Mengde recruited a number of troops, and the number of soldiers and horses reached 8,000. When he came to this Juping, after Liu Dai died, there were six or seven thousand left, and he eliminated the old and the weak, leaving three thousand.
Of these 10,000 people, 6,000 have steel essence armor and weapons, but only 4,000 are ordinary. Initially from 5,000, this short period of time successively built a thousand.
Xiahou Dun brought 5,000 soldiers in Yucheng County to fight against Liang Fu's Yellow Turbans. Among them, there were a thousand steel armored soldiers. Here, Cao Mengde, 5,000 soldiers and horses were all steel armored soldiers. Previously, Cao Chun was ordered to rescue Bao Xin and take away 2,000, and then distributed 2,000 to Cheng Yu, and he only had 1,000 left.
It's only a thousand, but it's also a great battle strength.
The armor and weapons made by Zhao Zhuanglian's steel essence are sharp and sturdy, which greatly enhances the soldier's combat capability. Even if it is only a thousand, it is able to move unhindered in the whole world. What's more, the opponent is no more than mob?
Leave 2,000 to Cheng Yu, just in case. Those descendants who had been trained by Zhao Yu had long 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 is a piece of white ground, which makes these descendants dare not do what he thinks. What's more, the thorns in it have been cleaned up by Zhao Yu long ago, and there is no boss to shout, so naturally does not raise. With Cheng Yu's ability, with these 2,000 steel armored soldiers, there will never be any further mistakes.
So Cao Mengde boldly took the remaining 1,000 soldiers and horses to run to Cheng County.
Zhao Yu, more than 20 people, ran eastward overnight, looking at the Northern Sea.
Among the twenty people, ten of them are ten riders with earliest by their side. There were more than ten people left, namely Guan Ming and more than ten leaders who were not killed by Zhao Yu.
These people will follow Zhao Yu's side in the future.
These leaders, no matter if they also have no humanity, can't be released into the army. If there is a leader, there is a backbone. If a few 100,000 descendants have 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 are not bad. Guan Ming is not a beast, and the hundreds of people under his command are not beasts either.
"Where did Guan Hai attack the Northern Sea from?"
Zhao Yu asked along the way.
Guan Ming undulated on the horse's back, shook his head and said, "I don't know about the little guy."
Zhao Yu nods.
Where Guan Hai wants to fight, I'm afraid he didn't have a specific plan when he sent troops. This is the distinguishing feature of mob.
"Then let's go to the Northern Sea first, and then we will find out when we arrive at the Northern Sea."
From Bo County, Mount Tai County, to the Northern Sea, there are hundreds of miles on the way. To pass through Fenggao County, Ying County, Mou County and Laiwu County, and then pass through Qi State Linqu, is the Northern Sea country.
Hundreds of miles, even a thousand miles of horses, can't bear the continuous running, so every time I go, I have to stop and rest for one hour, and it took two days to reach Qi State.
It actually embellished the traces of the Guanhai army-the hundreds of thousands of Guanhai's army passed by, leaving a mess, and the time was short, even blind would not ignore it.
"It seems that Guan Hai intends to go straight to the Northern Sea Administration."
Zhao Yu reined in the reins, looked ahead, and said to Guan Ming, "Take a few people there. Look, if Guan Hai's army is besieging Juxian, you will come back and let me know immediately."
When Guan Ming heard this, his face beamed with joy: "Here!"
Wait for Guan Ming After leaving, Zhao Yu waited for the rest of the dozen or so people to rest for a while, and then moved on.
Not long after the trip, a horse rushed towards you.
Zhao Yu took a closer look and found that although this ride was smashing whips and galloping fast, it was not panicked. He hung a lance on the victory hook on the left, and a large bow on the right. The quiver on his back was bullied by the horse, which was faintly visible.
If that's the case, Zhao Yu wouldn't pay attention.
The key point is that there is another person on the back of this person's horse, who is it if it's not Guan Ming?
Before Zhao Yu could speak, the man on the galloping horse shouted: "Very urgent, get out of the way. I am Taishi Ci of Donglai, the thieves are besieging the city, and Juxian is at stake. I'm going to ask for help, don't stop me!"
"Tai Shi Ci?"
Zhao Yu slightly startled, showing so that's how it is.
At this moment, Zhao Yu's mind has turned around a few times.
According to the original historical trend, after Liu Dai's death in battle, Cao Mengde and the Qing State Yellow Turbans lasted for a long time. It will not be until next year, that is, 193, when Cao Mengde controls Yanzhou and integrates the forces before Guan Hai. Unable to support it, he changed direction and attacked the Northern Sea. And Taishi Ci, also here, began to emerge.
Taishi Ci was famous for his bravery and unparalleled faith in the village. Even Kong Rong knew him. He also repeatedly sent people to recruit him.
But it is precisely because of one thing that he has a reputation of unparalleled faith, but he also hates the officials in the state and has to go to Liaodong to avoid disaster.
As a result, Kong Rong was unable to conquer it many times.
When Guanhai was besieged and attacked the Northern Sea, Taishi Ci just came back from Liaodong, and his mother advised him to help Kong Rong. Kong Rong asked Liu Bei for help in Pingyuan, so he sent Taishi Ci to break through the encirclement and go to Pingyuan.
But it's only 192 now, and although winter is coming, it's not yet 193.
In an instant, Zhao Yu figured it out.
Taishi Ci was filial and filial. He avoided disaster in Liaodong, but his mother was in Donglai. Because of the severe cold in Liaodong, and mother's age will be very high, she cannot go to Liaodong. Therefore, I will definitely come back every year to be filial to my mother.
"Wait."
Zhao Yu pulled his horse to block the road and said, "Are you Taishi Ci, Taishi Ziyi?"
Taishi Ci Gong The horse was skilled, and when he saw that Zhao Yu suddenly pulled his horse and blocked the road, he didn't panic. He restrained the reins, and just stopped in front of Zhao Yu in the neighing horse's neighing. Why did Mr. stop me? Juxian was besieged..."
Zhao Yu interrupted him with a flick of his sleeves and said, "I know that Juxian is besieged, and I also know that it is the Yellow Turban Guanhai. Are you Taishi Ci? "
Taishi Ci took a deep breath and touched the lance on the victory hook: "I am Taishi Ci."
"Okay," Zhao Yu laughed: "You're going to Pingyuan to ask Liu Bei for help?"
"How do you know?!"
Taishi Ci was shocked, stepped back a few steps, and took off the lance with a clanging sound. Pointing directly at Zhao Yu: "Are you and the Yellow Turban thief going on the same road?!"
With a humming sound, Taishi Ci's palm trembled, and a little cold star appeared, and went straight to Zhao Yu. Come.
Zhao Yu could clearly see that among the little cold stars, a little edge was facing his throat.
"Good spear technique."
Zhao Yu smiled slightly, slowly extended a finger, and pointed it on the spear head with great accuracy, and with a sound of ka-cha, the spear head snapped. , Taishi Ci was struck by lightning, his face turned red, his arms were trembling, and his whole body was numb.
"Who the hell are you!"
Tai Shi Ci was horrified, how could there be such a powerful person in this world? !
Zhao Yu withdrew his fingers and said with a smile: "I stopped you not because I had anything to do with Guan Hai, but because of the person on your horse."
Taishi Ci started, looked down at the man he was holding on the back of the horse before, and blurted out: "You know this person?!"
Zhao Yu said with a smile: " Exactly. You took my entourage, you said I can't stop you?"
Tai Shi Ci felt embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Then Zhao Yu got off the horse and unfastened Guan Ming from Taishi Ci's horse. A little bit 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 Taishi Ci.
It turned out that Guan Ming took people to the town of Juxian, and before he arrived, he saw Taishi Cici's horse rushing towards him.
Taishi Ci also shouted like that, and when Guan Ming heard it, 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 resolve the matter, he planned to keep Taishi Ci and not let him ask for help.
But as soon as you do it, you are blinded.
How can he be Taishi Ci's opponent?
Fortunately, Guan Ming didn't say that he was a yellow turban, so Taishi Ci didn't do anything ruthless, and everyone else was knocked out. Guan Ming was held by Taishi Ci and planned to stay away from Juxian County. When tired, ask him why.
