"Who told you that I want to use the Tiger Prison to lock up these soldiers and horses to sack Luoyang, Xu You, I will ask you, I will give you 40,000 horses to guard the Tiger Prison Pass, can you block Lu Zhi's full attack, I don't want you to block him for three or five months, I just need you to block him for a month!"

Liu Zheng suddenly looked at Xu You, Xu You was asked by Liu Zheng, and suddenly sank, realizing that Liu Zheng was not joking with him.

"Forty thousand! I see that Lu Zhi is only 40,000 people here, 40,000 against 40,000, we are still the defender, relying on the firmness of the tiger prison, there is no reason why I can't stop Lu Zhi! ”

After hearing Liu Zheng's inquiry, Xu You was silent for a moment, thinking quickly in his mind whether he could block Lu Zhi's attack.

But he also understood Liu Zheng's thoughts in his heart, if Liu Zheng wanted to take the remaining more than 10,000 men and horses to Luoyang, although there were fewer soldiers and horses, the shock that could be caused was absolutely the same as what Liu Zheng said, which was bound to make the emperor of the court and Lao'er look shocked, and he was afraid that he would be frightened to abandon Luoyang and flee.

"Okay, as long as you can block Lu Zhi for a month, I will make a big move in Luoyang as much as possible to relieve your pressure!"

"I ordered Sun Xia to lead 30,000 people in his headquarters to stay behind and cooperate with you to defend the Tiger Prison Pass, and at the same time let Yang Feng and Guo Tai lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to assist you, while I took Zhou Cang, Xu Huang, and Huang Zhong to Luoyang!"

"But remember that once the tiger prison can't be guarded, don't carry it hard, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, come to meet me immediately, we will find a way to break through!"

Liu Zheng finally gave Xu You an order. Although the Tiger Prison Pass is very important, relatively speaking, Liu Zheng feels that Xu Yu's life is more important.

The tiger prison is gone, and you can fight again, but if Xu You is dead, then Liu Zhengke will be sad, after all, Xu You is the only strategist under Liu Zheng's command now, if Xu You is dead, then Liu Zhengke can really only participate in some things by himself, and he can't even find anyone to discuss.

After Xu You heard Liu Zheng's words, he was also moved in his heart, following a master like Liu Zheng. It is also the blessing of their kind of counselors.

The feeling of being respected and valued will always make people feel that they want to die and serve their lives, after all, they die for their confidants.

After Liu Zheng finished discussing with Xu You, he quickly issued an order, taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, and Lu Zhi's soldiers and horses did not send troops to attack the city, Liu Zheng quickly led his 1,000 elite cavalry, 1,000 archers, and his most elite 8,000 Yellow Turban Army, from the gate on the other side of the Tiger Prison Pass to the direction of Luoyang City.

After leaving the Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Zheng did not take all the people with him, but let Zhou Cang and Huang Zhong rush to Luoyang at an ordinary speed with a deep nine thousand infantry, while he himself and Xu Huang led a thousand cavalry to Luoyang in a hurry.

Outside Luoyang City, not far from a Wu fort.

Luoyang City is the place where the major dignitaries gather, and the range of fifty miles outside Luoyang City is also the territory of the dignitaries.

It's just that these places were divided up by the major nobles, and small villages with camps as the main body were established, or Wubao-style villages.

They domesticated hundreds of private soldiers and some common people, worked for them, and the owners provided land and collected large rents, to put it bluntly, landlords, and kept a large number of tenant farmers in captivity.

Such Wubao camps are everywhere around Luoyang, with thousands of people gathering together and as few as two or three hundred people as villages.

Liu Zheng led a thousand elite cavalry to the periphery of Luoyang, and the first thing that caught his eye was the Wu fort and the camp.

Liu Zheng wanted to cause panic in Luoyang, or to make his attack on Luoyang bigger, and directly attack Luoyang, and it was difficult to have the desired effect with only 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Therefore, he did not plan to attack Luoyang directly from the beginning, but took his soldiers and horses to attack the major Wu forts around Luoyang first.

After some burning, killing and looting, it will definitely cause great panic around Luoyang, and then these refugees who have burned their homes will flock to Luoyang in large numbers, spreading the news that the Yellow Turban Army is outside Luoyang City and wantonly burning and killing the entire Luoyang City.

At that time, Liu Zheng ordered his soldiers and horses to go to Luoyang City to walk around, which was more effective than attacking Luoyang directly from here.

"Qu Shuai, inquire clearly, this Wu Fort in front of you is the camp of He Fu, the butler of the great general He Jin, he has more than 700 slaves in captivity here, it is said that there are more than a dozen little ladies bought from all over the country, and I heard that there are also blonde and blue-eyed women from the Western Regions."

"Even He Jin often comes to this place to tryst with those women, as long as we break this camp, the news will definitely reach the ears of the great general He Jin."

Xu Huang pointed to the Wu Bao not far away, and said excitedly to Liu Zheng beside him.

"Okay, I know, tell the brothers behind you, don't show mercy, kill all the adult men, don't kill the old people and children, and the women you can dispose of yourself, I don't care."

Liu Zheng did not use modern thinking to restrain these soldiers under his command.

Perhaps in the eyes of modern people, burning, killing and looting is an incredible thing, and only **** will do it.

But in the era that Liu Zheng is living in now, especially in the eyes of these Yellow Turban Army under Liu Zheng, burning, killing, and plundering are normal for them, and they have done too many such things since the day they revolted.

Even Liu Zheng himself has long been numb to this kind of thing, and the warriors who crawled out of the pile of dead people have never seen this.

The only thing Liu Zheng could do was to order these soldiers and horses under his command not to do anything to the old man and children, as for women, he couldn't control so much.

After having Liu Zheng's order, Xu Huang immediately gave out a hungry wolf-like gaze in front of his eyes, and then immediately gave the order to charge at the thousand cavalry behind him.

Immediately, around the Wu Fort, the sound of a large number of cavalry galloping began to appear.

However, the people in Wubao did not cause any movement, perhaps because there were often soldiers and horses near Luoyang, and the soldiers and horses of the fifth school of the Northern Army often went out of the city to see them, and these people were no longer surprised.

After all, he is also a subordinate of the General's Mansion, and he has seen a lot of things, and he is not afraid and cares about a thousand cavalry at all.

After all these thousand cavalry, when the Wu Fort in the distance, the owner of this Wu Fort noticed that the clothes of these cavalry were not the uniforms of the officers and soldiers at all.

It's a piece of Huang Tongtong, a black and yellow patchwork costume, which makes people see at a glance that these cavalrymen are yellow turban thieves!

"Yellow Turban Thief! Yellow Turban Thief! ”

On the watchtower of Wubao, a man shouted hoarsely.

This man's roar quickly attracted the attention of the others in the dock fort, and the three hundred private soldiers raised by He Fu immediately ran out at this time, wanting to go over to stop these Yellow Turban Army.

But when these private soldiers saw that there were actually a thousand cavalry coming from outside, they were immediately frightened and hurriedly ran back to the dock fort.

Then the dock fort was sealed, the gate was locked, and hundreds of people hid in the dock fort, trying to avoid the attack of these Yellow Turban troops.

The so-called dock fort, in fact, also known as the dock wall, is a kind of civil defensive building, about the formation of Wang Mang Tianfeng period, when the north was hungry, social turmoil. In order to protect themselves, the families of the rich built the walls of the dock forts.

A boxy building, usually with only two gates, one large and one small, is surrounded by an arrow tower, and there is a tall building in the center, which serves as a watchtower. It can accommodate hundreds of people, and even larger ones can allow thousands of people to survive inside.
