News of Dong Zhuo's fall spread back to Luoyang and spread to every corner of Jizhou.

Including Guangping, Jingxian and Yixian.

Jushu was stationed in Jingxian County and spent several days cleaning the battlefield and preparing for city defenses after defeating Lu Gong.

The Yellow Turban surrendered troops had to be disposed of, and the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle had to be disposed of. Strangely, after the fighting in the north stopped, there was no movement in Guangzong. Only according to scout investigation, there were occasional Yellow Turban activities outside Guangzong City.

South of Yi County, Liu Qing's team had just passed Gaoyang County.

Zhu Ling led the cavalry to explore the way forward, while Liu Qing led the imperial guards at the front of the grain team. The horses were walking slowly, and Zhang Hedianwei was also beside him. The three of them discussed the situation in Jizhou together.

Rather than discussing, it would be more appropriate to talk about gossip.

Liu Qing has been out of the war for too long. Although news comes from time to time, it is always incomplete.

For now, it won’t hurt to hold on to this wave of money and miss out on some excitement!

Besides, I had a wonderful life. To sum it up, I would like to say -

I slept until I woke up naturally, and counted money until my hands cramped.

"Lord, if you calculate the time, General Huangfu should arrive in Jizhou in the next few days, right?" Dian Wei said.

Probably so, but can Huangfu Song really deal with Zhang Jiao when he comes? Liu Qing still has this question mark in his mind.

Because at this time, the development of things has deviated from the original trajectory of history.

Originally, Dong Zhuo laid siege to the city for more than two months and was dismissed due to futility, which at least retained the effective strength of the official army. But now Dong Zhuo has almost given away all the possessions in Jizhou, which in disguise weakened the strength of the official army and increased the difficulty of the battle.

It turned out that when Huangfu Song came to Jizhou, Zhang Jiao died of illness, and Zhang Liang was still a warrior in essence. Although he fought bravely, he had no overall coordination or planning ability. In the end, he fell in love with Huangfu Song and was defeated and killed.

The clan city was destroyed.

In the end, the officers and soldiers worked together to deal with Zhang Bao, who was fighting alone, but he was eventually killed by his subordinates who rebelled.

Now Zhang Jue is still alive and well. With Zhang Jue's command and planning, it is almost impossible to win by relying on trivial skills.

Lu Zhi must have a strategy. Even he could only use the method of ravine and fortification to besiege Guangzong. There was no progress for a month. No matter what bait he put, Zhang Jiao would not bite the hook.

That would only kill Zhang Jiao, and his lifespan should only be a few months, right?

Then the world line will be closed.

"Lord, are we going to fight against Guangzong?" Dian Wei asked again confusedly.

"If the stalemate lasts for a long time, we will definitely be able to catch up. I wonder if the imperial court has ordered General Huangfu to make a quick decision this time." Liu Qing had a guess in his mind, that is, yes!

"If we catch up, I'll chop Zhang Jiao alive!"

"The imperial court ordered General Huangfu to go north to the governor's army. His strength was about 40,000. The remaining soldiers gathered by Dong Zhuo and Guo Dian were probably only 10,000 at best. Li Wen, the prefect of Wei County, raised about 5,000 people to confront the Yellow Turbans and Quzhou.

This is what the letter sent by Fengxiao said." Liu Qing recounted, "According to the time of sending the letter, they may have already arrived at Guangzong City. General Huangfu spent a lot of time marching. During this time, Zhang

The horn doesn’t move at all, it’s very strange.”

"What's strange? Of course they don't dare to leave the city if they can't defeat them. Weren't they repelled by Ju Gong and Zilong!" Dian Wei said.

"Perhaps Zhang Jue did not leave the city because he just wanted to place the battlefield in Guangzong. He should have made a lot of preparations!" Zhang He frowned, as if he was seriously trying to figure out Zhang Jue's intentions.

"I prefer Jun Yi's view!" Liu Qing said.

"My lord, General Huangfu has 40,000 soldiers, and General Dong has 10,000 remaining soldiers. Wouldn't that be back to the situation of General Lu Zhonglang?" Zhang He seemed to have discovered something extraordinary.

Originally Lu Zhi had a good siege, but the imperial court made micro maneuvers as fierce as a tiger, changed generals before the battle, fought quickly, and finished all the attacks in one wave.

"It's a pity that the defense line established by General Lu Zhonglang has been completely destroyed by the Yellow Turbans. Some of the siege equipment that was finally saved were also destroyed in this rout. This situation has indeed returned to the time when we first came here." Liu Qing. road.

"Lord, let me see, with these, we can't fight. Without these, Zhang Jue might dare to come out and fight." Dian Wei guessed wildly.

…

After Zhao Yun killed Lu Gong, he did not enter Jing County. Instead, he continued to carry out Liu Qing's order and camped in the area between Jing County and Nangong County. Zhao Yun sent out sentries in groups of two to capture the north-south messengers. .

In the past two days, several people have been arrested, but the information they carry is not of much value.

Zhao Yun even suspected that this was a cover-up trick by the Yellow Turban Envoy.

So that day, he personally led dozens of riders to intercept them in the area north of Nangong County. The method was very simple, just stop all the riders.

At the end of the day, there was indeed a harvest, and three Yellow Turban messengers were intercepted.

One of the personal letters caught Zhao Yun's special attention.

The description in the letter was very strange, like a marching route, but Zhao Yun did not recognize the names of the places above. The messenger was adamant and would rather die than surrender. When he was helpless, he suddenly thought of what his lord had said.

Liu Qing once said to him when he was in Yingchuan: If you accidentally know the enemy's plan, don't destroy it, but find a way to use it!

Don't destroy it, find a way to use it?

Zhao Yun immediately copied the letter and asked someone to send it to Guangping immediately. He couldn't understand it, but it didn't mean that Fengxiao couldn't understand it! The Lord still asked Fengxiao about everything.

On the other side, a clever Yellow Turban was found to surrender, and he was promised a hundred stones of food after the event was completed, and asked him to pretend to be the Yellow Turban messenger and send the original document to Guangzong.

His intuition told him that this letter was very important.

…

At the top of Guangzong City, Zhang Jiao looked out into the distance, looking at the enemy camp that was destroyed last time. As soon as Huangfu Song arrived here, he began to repair it.

"Turning over and over, it's all these. If you don't do these, won't you know how to fight?" Zhang Jiao mocked.

"Father, it is not unreasonable for the officers and soldiers to be cautious," Zhang Ning said.

"It's a pity that deep ditches and high fortresses can't save their lives. This is almost the last army Luoyang can send. Defeating him will keep us safe for several years."

"How come my father has such great confidence?"

"My confidence all comes from you, as well as your second uncle and third uncle." Zhang Jiao turned his head and looked at Zhang Ning, smiling, "This time, the second brother defeated the army and gave us a glimmer of hope. "

Zhang Ning said nothing and looked ahead. It sounded like there was really hope.

Fifty thousand officers and soldiers were defeated, and the power of the horns was restored.

The situation was like pressing the reset button. The only difference was that Lu Zhi was replaced by Huangfu Song, who defeated Bo Cai and Bu Si's Huangfu Song.

There is also a son of King Bohai who is rumored to be miraculous.

"There is a force in Jingxian that makes me uneasy. After thinking about it, I'm afraid he is the only one." Zhang Jiao pointed out, a trace of confusion flashed across his expression. He was always full of fear of unknown enemies.

"If you want to destroy the enemy, you must first swell the enemy. My father used 20,000 weak troops to support Jingxian County. This must be the purpose."

"Sure enough, we can't hide anything from Ning'er. The most important thing we have is soldiers. If we can capture Jingxian County, it will be a success. If we can't capture it, we can also show the enemy's weakness and give him a fatal blow if he takes it lightly.

hit."

Zhang Ning smiled and said, "Second uncle is imitating my father in this regard. I heard that he deliberately allowed the army to attack the city, constantly giving them hope and slowly consuming their vitality."

"If you don't make a sound, that's it. It's a blockbuster. Your second uncle has finished his performance. Now -" Zhang Jiao paused and looked towards the enemy camp, with a cold glint in his eyes.
