Chapter 199 Quelling the Civil Rebellion, Killing Three Birds with One Stone!

Anlu City is the seat of Jiangxia County, the city is tall, the money and food are sufficient, there are 20,000 elite soldiers stationed inside, surrounded by summer water and Zhuanshui, it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so under the impact of more than 100,000 chaotic people, it has been held for two months, waiting for reinforcements to arrive!

In the spring of the seventh year of Jian'an, on the third day of the second month, Liu Bei and Liu Qi's 60,000 troops finally came to the vicinity of Anlu, camped fifty miles away, and then slowly advanced southward, preparing for a decisive battle with the chaotic forces!

At the same time, the rebels also stopped attacking the city, leaving only a few men and horses to besiege it, and the main force, led by several big leaders, went north to meet the counterinsurgency army, trying to take advantage of the numerical advantage to solve the support army first, and then continue to attack Anlu City!

"Roar! --Murder and rebellion, lawlessness! ”

"Whew! --The real dragon is born, and the world is lucky! ”

………………………………

More than 100,000 rebels rushed in a swarm without formation, and they also let out the cries of wild beasts, and their weapons were even more chaotic, with large knives, spears, rakes, hoes, and sticks...... Only a very small number of leaders have sturdy armor and mount weapons, such an inferior level of equipment, no wonder they have been besieged for two months, and they can't take Anlu City!

The banners of the rebels are also very messy, most of them tear a piece of white cloth casually, and various nicknames are scribbled on it: Mixed River Dragon, Descending Mountain Tiger, Sky Monkey...... Then pick it up with a bamboo pole, the largest apricot yellow flag, with eight big characters on it - the sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand!

After the rebels entered the battlefield, they did not rush to attack, but came to the edge of the summer water, and came to a 'backwater array', it seems that among the leaders of the rebels, there are also people who have a rough understanding of the art of war, and want to use this to boost morale and fight to the death with the officers and soldiers!

Liu Bei, Liu Qi, Xu Shu and others immediately stepped forward, and after checking the situation of the chaotic people, they couldn't help but have eight words in their hearts: 'The remnants of the yellow scarf, the ghost will not go away!' ’

In the fourth year of Zhongping, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao provoked the banner of the Yellow Turban, from its opponents to hundreds of thousands of people, affecting most of the prefectures and counties in the world, although they were suppressed by the official army, but also shook the rule of the Han family, forming a situation in which the heroes rose up and killed continuously!

After the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army, the remnants scattered and fled, or gathered in the mountains and forests, or hibernated among the people, ready to make a comeback at any time.

"Thieves rebel, don't talk about killing, between Mr. Yuanzhi, how can our army arrange troops to annihilate these thieves?"

Liu Bei held the sword in his hand and showed his murderous intentions, since the other party played the Yellow Turban banner and openly opposed the Han court, he had no choice but to kill!

"The thief army set up a formation against the water, and had the intention of emulating the soldier immortal-Han Xin, but it was self-defeating, the lord can send a general to go out and kill several leaders of the thief army, and severely frustrate its spirit, and then the whole army will launch an attack and force the thief army to the edge of Xia Shui, and it will definitely win a big victory!"

Xu Shu has long seen the flaw, hundreds of thousands of thieves are arrayed against the water, there is no room for maneuver, not to mention, and he has cut off his own back road, if it is an elite soldier, it can naturally inspire courage, but unfortunately a group of rabble, I am afraid that they will only kill themselves!

"Where is General Zilong--go out to challenge and kill the enemy general!"

"No!"

"I am Changshan Zhao Zilong, who dares to step forward to fight to the death?"

………………

A long whistle sounded, Zhao Yun jumped out of the battle, holding high the gentian bright silver spear, standing proudly on the field, under the bright sunshine, as if he was a god descending to earth!

Everyone in the world knows that Xiao Yi has a sworn brother, who is this General Zilong, who can be the eldest brother of 'killing gods', and General Zhao Yun's martial arts can be imagined!

"I am the Harrier who turned the sky upside down-Li Xiao is also, come and fight with you for 300 rounds!"

There is no shortage of brave men in the world, and a leader rushed out of the chaos, nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, wearing brass armor, sitting on a blue-maned horse, holding a large axe, screaming and rushing over......

"Whoosh! -Burst! …… Poof! ”

Zhao Yun stepped forward to fight, and after flashing the opponent's axe, the bright silver spear stabbed out like a poisonous snake, hitting the opponent's throat, blood gushing, and dead bodies fell, General Zilong immediately shot and challenged again...... "Who dares to fight to the death with me?" ”

Li Xiao is a famous bandit, with hundreds of catties of strength in his body, he has killed many officers and generals, but he didn't expect to be stabbed to death by Zhao Zilong with only one face, no wonder he is the eldest brother of Xiao Lang with a ghost face, and he is really extraordinary!

"The enemy general is going to be rampant, the flying orangutan-Li Le is here to meet you, let's fight to the death--wow wow!"

A moment later, another thief rushed out, burly, covered in black hair, with protruding facial features, like a gorilla in the forest, holding a cooked copper stick, and rushed over with a strange scream!

"Whoosh! --Burst! …… Poof! ”

Just like just now, Zhao Yun politely gave in with a stick, and then the bright silver spear stabbed out with lightning, hitting the chest of the flying orangutan, and even through the double armor, blood splashed, and the dead body fell!

"I am the Flying Spider, known as the number one master in Lingnan, and today I am with General Zhao............ Poof! ”

A tall and thin man rushed out of the chaos, shouting loudly with two knives in his hand, wandering a hundred paces away, but he did not dare to rush over...... Zhao Yun didn't bother to take care of him, drew out the iron arm bow, and mounted the cloud-piercing arrow...... Right in the throat of the other party!

"The whole army will attack and annihilate the traitors - kill!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Liu Bei raised his double-strand sword and gave the order to attack, and the 60,000 army was divided into several roads, and under the leadership of Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Wen Ping, and Wei Yan, several generals, rushed to the enemy formation with the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain, slashing and killing, without mercy!

The rebels besieged Anlu City for more than two months, and they were already exhausted, and they broke three big leaders, and their fighting spirit was extremely low.

The problem is that they have summer water behind them, the weather is warm in the south, the ice has long since melted, and the defeated soldiers are forced into the river and drowned......

The rest had no way to escape, so they simply threw away their swords and guns, knelt down and surrendered, Liu Bei also passed down the order, only punished the evil, coerced and never asked, most of the hundreds of thousands of chaotic people are young and strong, as long as they are collected for their own use and trained strictly, they are competing for the capital of the world!

…………………………………………………………………………

Seeing that the battle situation has been decided, the gate of Anlu City has also been opened, and a group of local officials walked out, the first person is a thief, with a thin body, and an overly drunken appearance, it is Jiangxia County Taishou - Cai An!

Jiangxia County is the nest of the Cai family, so it is guarded by the children of the family, and most of the rest of the civil and military officials are also related to the Cai family, but since they came to power, they have been tyrannical and tyrannical, bullying men and women, which has caused huge public anger, and they have to pay a lot of responsibility for this large-scale civil uprising!

"Uncle Liu Huang and the eldest prince came to relieve the siege and annihilate all the thieves, and the officials were grateful and had prepared a banquet...... Yikes! ”

Cai An took a few steps forward, and wanted to slap the horse, but stopped halfway through the conversation, because he was surprised to find that Uncle Liuhuang, who has always been known for his benevolence, was full of murderous anger at this time!

"Bold Cai An - colluding with thieves, plotting against him, where is my brother Zhang Yide, quickly kill the rebels!"

"Zhang Yide is here--kill!"

…………………………

As soon as Liu Bei's words fell, Zhang Fei turned out behind him, and as soon as he probed the eight snake spears in his hand, he stabbed Cai to the heart, and the soldiers also rushed up, tied up the rest of the officials, and killed them all by the moat, picked up the heads with bamboo poles, and sent them to the captives to show the public!

In this civil rebellion in Jiangxia County, the officials have a great responsibility, and it is natural to kill them, and then use their heads to show the public, which can alleviate the grievances of the chaotic people, and then win the hearts of the people for Liu!

Next, the army poured into the city and completely took over Anlu City, and the families of Cai An and others were also imprisoned and their property confiscated.

As for Jiangxia County's Taishou Great Seal, Liu Bei did not take it into his arms, but gave it to the eldest son-Liu Qi, and sent people to Xiangyang City. The second is to recommend Liu Qi as the Taishou of Jiangxia County!

This is Liu Bei's cleverness, Jiangxia County is very rich, and it is a military stronghold, if it is in his own hands, it will inevitably arouse Liu Biao's suspicion, and the killing of Cai An will also cause Cai's crazy revenge!

And with Liu Qi as Jiangxia's Taishou, not only to sell a big favor, but also to eliminate Liu Biao's suspicions, even if the Cai family wants to retaliate, Liu Biao will do his best to suppress it, Jiangxia County's fat meat, will never be dug out of his son's mouth, and then feed those brothers-in-law!

Liu Qi was originally a useless person, even if he was allowed to sit on the throne, he would not be able to control the chaos in Jiangxia County, and he had to rely on his uncle, in other words, the real power of the military and government in Jiangxia County still fell into the hands of Liu Bei, this is really killing three birds with one stone!

In the next few days, Liu Bei was stationed in Anlu City, rewarding soldiers and winning the hearts of Jiangxia County on the one hand, and inquiring about news on the other, especially the Cao family and the Sun family, and there were two important news:

First, after receiving a stern warning, the Jiangdong Army really stopped, Sun Quan waved his army westward this time, just wanted to establish his personal prestige, and saw that the people of Jiangxia County had become calm, so he decisively stopped!

The Jiangdong army came out on a trip, it was impossible to do nothing, Sun Quan transferred a lot of manpower and material resources, and built another city in the dangerous place on the south bank of the Yangtze River, echoing the Xiakou City on the north bank!

Xiakou City is a military fortress, like a solid lock, firmly locking the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and now the new city is completed, which is equivalent to adding double insurance, and the defense system of the Jiangdong Group is more stable!

Second, after a long journey, hundreds of thousands of Cao troops crossed the Yellow River and returned to Xuchang City smoothly, buried Guo Jia on a high post in the north of the city, and held a grand conjuring ceremony to worship this 'unparalleled ghost talent' and the soldiers who sacrificed in the Northern Expedition!

Next, Cao Cao rewarded the ministers lavishly, all the meritorious people of the Northern Expedition, all of them added officials to the knighthood, sealed their wives and sons, and there was a big 'money rain', the ministers were grateful, and they wrote to the Han Emperor Liu Xie, asking to be crowned as a duke!

The protagonist is about to play again, and he fights wits and courage with Cao Cao!
