I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 588: Kill the General and Seize Power
Inside the tent, the turbid wine flowed down Zhang Hong's head, soaking his hair and clothes. This sobered him up instantly, but he was still stupid:
"You, who are you?"

"Where are my personal soldiers?!"

Zhang Hong's voice was trembling and he even stuttered when speaking.

"Qu Junhou, are you still drunk?"

Su Yao snorted coldly:
"Or is it that my name is not memorable enough for you after the battle at Yique Pass?"

Zhang Hong's face turned pale in an instant. He swallowed hard, staring at Su Yao's handsome face with wide eyes, and finally sorted out a clue from his chaotic thoughts:
"Su...Su Yao? Are you champion Hou Su Yao?"

Zhang Hong's voice was almost squeezed out of his throat, full of disbelief and fear.

After seeing Su Yao nod, Zhang Hong's head buzzed and he felt his body trembling constantly.

He never expected that Dong Gong's mortal enemy, their biggest opponent and threat, the champion marquis who was said to be braver than ten thousand men, invincible on the battlefield, and who had turned the tide countless times with his own strength, would actually appear in his own tent, and in such a way.

There is no point in resisting.

Even though his brain was still extremely confused, Zhang Hong made a judgment in an instant.

He didn't know how the Champion Marquis managed to get here, but it was obvious that all the people outside were dead, otherwise no one would have come when he shouted just now.

And at this moment, at such a close distance, how could I, unarmed, fight against the famous champion?
Before this thought even occurred to him, he just glanced at Su Yao's bloody sword and it was immediately extinguished.

He is definitely not faster than that knife:
"Please spare my life, Champion Marquis."

"Zhang is willing to surrender!"

Su Yao raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He glanced at the messy and lewd tent and said with a curled lip:
"Pull up your pants first. I'm not interested in seeing a man's naked body."

Zhang Hong blushed when he heard this. He kicked the trembling girl away:
"Quick, bring me my pants. I'm really making a fool of myself in front of you, Lord."

Su Yao did not reply, but stood silently in the tent, with his eyes closed and the sword in his hands.

After the commotion gradually subsided, he waved his hand again and rejected Zhang Hong's request for the two girls to serve him, and just asked them to sit in the corner of the big tent.

Knowing that his first impression was really bad, Zhang Hong sat upright and kowtowed:

"I didn't know you were coming. I was rude. Please forgive me."

Su Yao laughed inwardly after hearing this. It's a good thing you didn't know, otherwise we would have already met at the hilt of our sword.

However, he was not interested in arguing with this small fry at this moment, so he went straight to the point:

"I have something I need you to do."

When Zhang Hong heard this, he immediately tensed up and replied:
"Please give me your orders, my lord. As long as I can do it, I will do it even if it means risking my life!"

"Don't worry, it's a simple matter. You don't need to go through fire and water."

Su Yao said calmly:

"First of all, I heard that there is a large amount of food and fodder stored in Luokou Warehouse, which is specially used for Dong's relocation of the capital. But is it true? Where is this place? Please mark the location for me."

Zhang Hong was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Su Yao to set his sights on Luokou Warehouse so quickly.

However, he also knew the importance of Luokou Warehouse, which was indeed an important material storage base for Dong Zhuo's army.

So, he did not dare to hesitate at all, and quickly stood up, walked to the corner of the tent, rummaged through the messy ground for a long time, and finally found a map.

He spread the map out on the table and pointed:

"My Lord, please look here. This is the location of Luokou Warehouse. It is located northwest of our camp, about twenty miles away."

Su Yao looked in the direction Zhang Hong pointed, and saw that there was indeed a conspicuous location marked on the map, with the three big words "Luokou Warehouse" written next to it.

Then, Su Yao closed his eyes and checked on the small map again. After a striking task mark appeared at the same location, he opened his eyes with satisfaction:

"Very good. Do you know the defense over there?"

"I only know that Captain Hu Zhen is stationed nearby and is in charge of the situation. As for the rest, I am not very clear about my lowly position."

Su Yao nodded to show his understanding:
"No problem. Next, take the military token and call all the officers above the sergeant level in the camp. I want to give them a lecture."

Zhang Hong was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Su Yao to directly mobilize his subordinates. However, he didn't dare to hesitate at all. He quickly took out the military token from his clothes and flattered:
"This is the military token. I will go and summon them myself."

"No need, just sit here. We can send a personal soldier to handle such a small matter."

"But this is my personal soldier."

"My people will do it for you."

Patting Zhang Hong on the shoulder, Su Yao took the military token lightly, then called Guan Yu and Li Yi outside the door in, whispered a few words and told them to call people.

Watching the two men walk out of the tent, Zhang Hong lowered his head with a slightly worried look on his face. He knew that this was a sign that Guanjun Hou did not trust him yet.

Just when he was thinking whether to find an opportunity to have his subordinates report to Dong Zhuo secretly, or to increase efforts to curry favor with the Champion Marquis.
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in Zhang Hong's eyes.

"Varied?!"

Zhang Hong couldn't make another sound before he finished speaking - his head had moved away.

Su Yao's movements were as fast as lightning. Zhang Hong didn't even have time to react before he died on the spot.

Blood spurted out, staining a corner of the tent red, while his head was held firmly in Su Yao's hand.

The two men looked at each other. Zhang Hong's bloodshot eyes stared fiercely at Su Yao's eyes. He opened his mouth as if making a silent protest.

I have surrendered, why are you beheading me?

"Oh, by the way, I promised you to be a wise guy."

Su Yao chuckled:
"It's nothing, actually. I just don't like you, and I think it's better to chop you off. Maybe you understand?"

Of course, there would be no response to Su Yao's words. He just silently watched the despair in Zhang Hong's eyes gradually fade away, and there was no sign of life.

After doing all this, Su Yao threw Zhang Hong's head away, then took out a white cloth to wipe the blood off his knife, as if he had done something extremely insignificant.

However, this looked completely different to the two girls in the tent.

Their eyes widened in horror, their bodies shaking uncontrollably, and the two of them kowtowed and begged for mercy, leaving Su Yao speechless.

So, Su Yao comforted the two of them, telling them not to be afraid, that everything was fine, and to quickly put on their clothes.

"If you are really scared, you can clean up this place with my soldiers later. You can go home tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing this, the two girls felt as if they had been pardoned. They quickly kowtowed to express their gratitude, hurriedly put on their clothes, and began to help Su Yao's personal soldiers pack up the tents.

Although they were still filled with fear, Su Yao's comfort and promises made them feel a little relieved, and they understood that the best choice at this time was to obey orders and cooperate with the action.

I won’t go into details about the trivial matters in the camp.

Not long after, all the officers in the camp were summoned to the meeting tent.

Most of these people were like Zhang Hong before, reeking of alcohol and looking confused.

Where was their Qu Junhou? Why was there a strange boy standing in front of them?
As if he saw through everyone's doubts, Su Yao stood up and introduced himself directly.

This immediately caused an uproar in the big tent.

"what?!"

"Champion Hou Suyao???"

"How dare you be so presumptuous, you think my Xiliang army has no one?!"

Suddenly, the crowd in the big tent was excited, and the officers drew their weapons one by one and shouted loudly.

At this moment, Zhang Hong’s head was thrown in front of them, causing everyone to shut up.

"Zhang Hong, the general of Qujun Army, was lawless and helped the tyrant to commit atrocities. He has been killed by me."

"If anyone disobeys and wants to be buried with him, please stand up."

As soon as Su Yao finished speaking, Guan Yu, Li Yi and dozens of others rushed into the tent with weapons in hand.
