Zhao Yun pointed with his hand and said to Liu Xin: "Big brother, look, it seems that there is the third brother's team in the back!" ”

"Zilong, you read that right?" Liu Xin looked in the direction of Zhao Yun's finger, and could vaguely see a team following the yellow scarf, and sighed in his heart that Zhao Yun's eyesight was really good.

"It's not wrong, it must be the third brother's people." Zhao Yun is very confident in his eyesight.

"Okay, send the signal!" Although Liu Xin didn't understand what was happening, he couldn't miss the opportunity, and he still understood the reason why he would not come again, so he made a decision and gave the order to attack.

The Yellow Turban Brigade fled here, not daring to approach Wancheng, passing around the city, and could see a bunch of beacon fires burning at the head of the city in the distance. While marching, the earth suddenly shook, and not far away the smoke and dust rose, and a group of cavalry galloped over, taking the lead, holding a big axe, it was Xu Huang. Xu Huang slashed left and right and instantly rushed the Yellow Turban team into two sections, the Yellow Turbans were all infantry troops, the team was scattered, and the cavalry passed through the Yellow Turban Formation almost unhindered. Xu Huangle turned the horse's head and waved the big axe: "Kill!" "The whole cavalry is another charge. This three times swept the Yellow Turban Army into pieces. The infantry behind the cavalry has also arrived, and at the same time, the gate of Wancheng was wide open, and Dian Wei rushed out with a team of men and horses with a double iron halberd, and rushed straight to the middle of the Yellow Turban team, and Zhang Fei's men and horses had also caught up. Three times in a pinch, the corpses of the Yellow Turban Army that were directly killed were all over the field, the blood flowed like a river, and there were countless descendants, and Han Zhong, the leader of the Yellow Turbans, was also split in half by Xu Huang with an axe and a horse in the chaos. Only the thief chieftain Sun Xia led thousands of remnants of the army to the direction of Yingchuan and fled.

It turned out that before leaving, Liu Xin had made a plan with everyone. Liu Xin and Zhao Yun brought more than 10,000 recruits to pretend to be yellow turbans, and suddenly attacked and captured Wancheng. Liu Xin took all the Yellow Turban thieves captured in the city to the outside of the city for release, and most of these people were just ordinary people, or they were lured or coerced, and they had no choice but to join the Yellow Turbans. But many of these people are the Yellow Turban's sworn friends, and after being released, they naturally went to Han Zhong, Zhao Hong and other Yellow Turban leaders to report the news, and Han Zhong and others will definitely gather people and horses after receiving the news, and then come to seize Wancheng.

As expected, after receiving the report, Han Zhong and the others gathered in one place again, led about 40,000 people and horses, and came to capture Wancheng with great momentum. Liu Xin, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu had already planned to stop, and defended the city with the city, and when the Yellow Turban could not be attacked for a long time, and the people were sleepy and the horses were lacking, they cast a signal, and let Xu Huang lead a thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry, and suddenly hit the Yellow Turban team from behind, and Dian Wei and Zhao Yun rushed out of the city again. And Zhang Fei led 5,000 elite soldiers from Changsha to ambush on the road that the Yellow Turban must pass, and took advantage of the situation to kill, and the Nanyang Yellow Turban could be destroyed in one battle.

Who would have thought that he would bite the gold halfway. Han Zhong and Zhao Hong led the men and horses to the halfway, and they encountered an official army, and they suddenly encountered each other, caught off guard, and hurriedly responded to the battle, the officers and troops were outnumbered, and retreated to the south, and the Yellow Turban Army was introduced into Zhang He's ambush circle, and the previous scene happened.

"Looks like God help me." Liu Xin figured out what was going on, and laughed, "Where did that team of officers and soldiers come from, can you find out?" ”

"Big brother, I have already asked people to gather the scattered officers and soldiers, and you will find out when you ask." Zhang Fei is a coarse and meticulous person, and he has already arranged for people to collect the defeated and crippled army.

While he was talking, a soldier came to report that the defeated and crippled army had been brought out of the city, and the leading officer had also been brought.

"Oh, invite him in." Liu Xin is still very grateful to this team of officers and soldiers, and he was able to win this time, and this army also played a great role.

"The last general, Qin Jie, the commander of the Jingzhou Navy Army, see your lord." A grizzled general walked in, his helmet had long since fallen somewhere, and the white cloth wrapped around his left arm oozed blood, apparently wounded.

"What, you are Qin Jie, the captain of the navy? How did you get here? These sergeants you bring are all sailors? Liu Xin was dumbfounded when he heard this, he already knew that there was still a naval army in Jingzhou, about 10,000 people, stationed in Jiangxia, and the transfer order sent to the counties last time also gave a copy to the naval army, and he wanted to transfer 3,000 men and horses from the naval army.

"Yes, the last general heard that the lord wanted to recover Nanyang, and raised troops to come to help, and he didn't want to be ambushed by the yellow turban, so that the soldiers would be lost, so please forgive the lord." This Qin Jie secretly glanced at Liu Xin and hurriedly lowered his head. It turned out that Qin Jie, as the captain of the navy, although he was the same as Taishou Yulu, he only led the army and didn't care about political affairs, so he always wanted to find a Taishou to be in charge. This time, I heard that Wancheng was lost, and the Yellow Turban divided troops to loot the counties, so he wanted to lead the troops to attack Wancheng. never thought that Liu Xin would take the lead in recapturing Wancheng, and the naval army led by Qin Jie happened to encounter the Yellow Turban Brigade on the way, Qin Jie only thought that he had been ambushed by the Yellow Turban, and he was in a panic and was defeated by the Yellow Turban.

Liu Xin looked at him with flickering eyes, and knew that what he said was not true, and said secretly, I wanted to transfer you 3,000 soldiers and horses, but you didn't say a word, and now you will be so kind to help me recover Wancheng? Hmph, it was obvious that he was here to grab the credit, and he immediately roared: "Come on, take down Qin Jie!" ”

The flying tiger soldiers on the left and right pounced and pushed Qin Jie to the ground, and Qin Jie shouted: "The last general is wronged!" ”

Liu Xin sneered: "Qin Jie, you didn't have my general's order, and you mobilized the navy to Wancheng without authorization, so that you lost your troops and lost your generals, what is the wrong." ”

Qin Jie struggled to stand up and said, "Lord Liu, I am the commander of the Jingzhou Navy appointed by the imperial court, and I have two thousand stones, what qualifications do you have to arrest me?" ”

Liu Xin didn't laugh angrily, and said: "Captain Qin, I am the Jingzhou pastor personally appointed by the emperor, and the six million soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou are not under my control?" Haven't you seen Kumon? Come on, he said that he would be escorted down, and he would be dealt with according to the law when he arrived in Xiangyang. ”

On the one hand, Liu Xin sent Zhao Yun and Xu Huang to lead the troops to recover the counties of Nanyang, and on the other hand, he sent people to Pegasus to report the battle situation in Wancheng to Xinye, Fancheng, and Xiangyang. He took Zhang Fei and Dian Wei to arrange the defense of Wancheng, pacify the people in the city, and confiscate the property looted by the Yellow Turban. The Yellow Turban captives were not released again this time, but were all gathered outside the city to be guarded.

Early the next morning, a soldier came to report that Mr. Kuai Yue came from Xiangyang overnight, Liu Xin was taken aback, didn't know what was wrong, and hurriedly greeted him.

As soon as Kuai Yue saw Liu Xin, without waiting for him to speak, he said: "Congratulations to the lord for recovering Wancheng, his subordinates came from the starry night of Xiangyang, and dare to ask the lord to behead Qin Jie immediately!" ”

Liu Xin said strangely: "Could it be that Xenodu has an enmity with Qin Jie?" ”

Kuai Yue said: "Lord, I have no grudge against Qin Jie. But this is a godsend and should not be missed. Yesterday, I received a report from the lord that most of the losses of the Jingzhou Navy were all Qin Jie's crimes, and they should be beheaded according to the law! After beheading Qin Jie, the lord can justifiably reorganize the navy, and the gang navy can be under the control of the lord. "This is the result of his discussion with Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, and Kuai Liang, and he must behead Qin Jie Liwei and deter the other county guards.

Liu Xin groaned and hesitated, after all, it was a living human life.

Seeing this, Kuai Yue said again: "Please make a decision immediately, don't be kind to women!" ”

Liu Xin was ruthless, gritted his teeth and said, "Someone! Push Qin Jie out of the gate and behead him to show the public! ”

Liu Xin beheaded Qin Jie, after all, he felt a little unbearable, so he asked someone to find a coffin in the city, bury Qin Jie's body, and send a team of soldiers to his hometown of Yicheng, Nanjun. A few days later, Qin Jie's hearse came to Yicheng, and when it passed by a house next to the road, the carriage refused to move forward, and the soldiers accompanying it were all shocked. It happened that a villager from Qin Jie was passing by, and when he saw this scene, he told a story from the past. It turned out that when Qin Jie left Yicheng back then, he passed by here and once said that the feng shui here is very good, and he can be his own cemetery in the future. When the soldiers heard this story, they did not dare to move forward, so they quickly reported to Liu Xin. At this time, Liu Xin had already returned to Xiangyang, and when he received the report, he was embarrassed. He didn't believe in gods and ghosts in the world in the past, but he came to this era in a daze, but he couldn't explain it clearly, and he was hesitant at the moment, so he sent someone to buy that family's house with a lot of money and bury Qin Jiehou there.

Emperor Liu Hong has been in a very bad mood these days, and reports of defeat have come one after another from all over the country. First, Beizhonglang defeated Lu Zhi by Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, and later Zhu Jun was defeated by Bocai at Yingchuan, and then Zuozhonglang besieged Huangfu Song by Bocai in the Changshe area. Requests from all over the country for the imperial court to send elite soldiers again came one after another. The palace maids and eunuchs around Liu Hong have also been cautious these days, walking on thin ice, all worried that if they are not careful, they will annoy the emperor, and they will be beaten at least and lose their surnames.

On this day, Liu Hong received another request for help, and he was furious above the Golden Palace. Seeing this, the eunuch Zuo Feng stepped forward and said: "Lu Zhi lost his troops and generals, and asked His Majesty to issue a decree to ask for guilt." Slave and maid Bao Ju a person, surnamed Dong Mingzhuo, Longxi people's family, rough and scheming, now Hedong Taishou, if this person is used instead of Lu Zhi, you can break the yellow turban ant thief. It turned out that this Zuo Feng had already accepted bribes from Dong Zhuo, and Lu Zhi and others were upright and did not make friends with the eunuchs, so they wanted to take the opportunity to frame them. Liu Hong was angry, listened to Zuo Feng's words, and said without thinking: "I decree that Lu Zhisuo will be taken into Beijing and handed over to Yousi for questioning, and Dong Zhuo will be appointed as a Zhonglang general, and Zhang Jiao will be recruited instead of Lu Zhi's army." Just because of Zuo Feng's words, Lu Zhi lost his official position.

Suddenly, Zhang Rang trotted all the way into the hall with the piece in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, great joy!" Your Majesty, I am very happy! ”

Although Liu Hong was unusually fond of Zhang Rang, when he was annoyed at the moment, when he saw his appearance, he said angrily: "Zhang Rang, above the Golden Palace, shouting, what kind of system!" ”

Zhang Rang hurriedly knelt down, raised his hands above his head, presented the music in his hand, and said: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has just received the good news, and she got carried away for a while, please forgive your majesty." ”
