The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 78: Governor, it’s bad, the Yellow Turban Army is coming
In the last ten days of the tenth month of the first year of Chuping, Xuzhou.

"Zi Zhong, I heard recently that you are very close to Jiangdu County?"

At the Xuzhou government office, a middle-aged scholar saw Mi Zhu and asked with a smile.

Mi Zhu also smiled when he saw the person coming.

"It turned out to be Yuan Long!"

A trace of vigilance flashed in Mi Zhu's eyes, and he smiled as if nothing had happened.

"It's just some family business that requires me to go to Jiangdu County."

"You also know that it's hard to make money in these troubled times!"

"I did it as a last resort."

"Haha, that makes sense!"

Chen Deng laughed.

"But Zizhong still needs to pay attention to his own safety."

"Don't spend money when you have a life to earn it!"

As Chen Deng spoke, he kept looking at Mi Zhu.

As if seeing through everything.

in fact.

It doesn’t matter whether Mi Zhucheng admits it or not.

Anyone who is attentive can see it.

It is most likely that Mi Zhu is Ye Chen's man now.

The Chen family is also a prominent family in Xuzhou.

Mi Zhu knew that Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong were not people who were easy to deal with.

His father was Chen Gui.

A famous scholar of the Han Dynasty, he also came from a prominent family, and one of his ancestors had served as the Grand Marshal.

On reputation.

In Xuzhou, the Chen family is superior to the Mi family.

"It doesn't matter, whether you go to Jiangdu or not!"

"After the autumn harvest, Guangling will probably not be at peace!"

Chen Deng said with a chuckle.

Since ancient times, troops have been mobilized after the autumn harvest.

Everyone knows it now.

Guangling Prefect Zhang Chao and Yellow Turban Army Commander Ye Chen.

That would be a fight to the death.

after all.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Whoever wins will own Guangling County.

Whether it is Zhang Chao or Ye Chen.

At present, they have nothing to do with Xuzhou.

Everyone should clean the snow in front of their own door and not worry about the frost on other people's roofs.

This is the general mentality of today's aristocratic families.

and so.

Even though Chen Deng could see that Mi Zhu and the Yellow Turban Army were not clear about each other.

didn't say anything.

Placing more bets is just a common tactic used by the aristocratic families.

Chen Deng was just curious.

Why would Mi Zhu bet on a Yellow Turban rebel?

And his elder brother, Mi Fang, the deputy governor of Xuzhou, actually acquiesced.

Hence, this action of probing the situation was taken.

In fact, it wasn’t just the Mi family that noticed this.

The same is true for the Chen family.

They are very clear.

Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian is already old.

It can no longer be relied upon in the long term.

Sooner or later, the future ruler of Xuzhou will be replaced.

But who is this person?

Chen Deng hasn't seen it clearly yet.

"Yes, there may be a war in Guangling County."

"But I think Guangling won't be in chaos for too long."

Mi Zhu followed Chen Deng's words.

His tone was full of confidence.

If it were before, Mi Zhu might not have been so confident.

But since I went to Jiangdu County.

He was convinced.

The final winner of the future battle for Guangling will definitely be Ye Chen.

Ye Chen has many brave generals under his command, sharp weapons and sufficient food and grass.

Zhang Chao, a mere figure, could never be Ye Chen's opponent.

"Hey!"

"It's a pity that Mr. Tao is old and has no desire to fight for the world!"

"Otherwise, if he joins forces with Zhang Chao, Ye Chen will definitely lose!"

Chen Deng sighed.

in fact.

Now is the best opportunity for Tao Qian to annex Guangling.

But Tao Qian was determined to maintain the status quo.

Even though he knew that Ye Chen was a rebel of the Yellow Turban Army.

Nor would he join forces with Zhang Chao to eliminate Ye Chen.

However, Chen Deng was quite surprised by Mi Zhu's confidence in Ye Chen.

Watch Mi Zhu leave.

Chen Deng couldn't help but start to think about it.

Suppose, the battle of Guangling in the future.

Ye Chen really won.

That would occupy an entire county.

Today is different from the past. The authority of the Han Dynasty is becoming weaker and weaker.

If Ye Chen really had a county.

Then his identity as a member of the Yellow Turban Army would not matter in the eyes of the aristocratic families.

Aristocratic families were originally dependent on imperial power and royal authority.

What they value is hard power.

Of course, not all aristocratic families value strength.

There are still many aristocratic families who value both strength and reputation.

This is why Yuan Benchu ​​has so many talented people under him.

But the Chen family doesn't value these empty reputations.

If Ye Chen really took over Guangling County.

Their Chen family may not be able to help Ye Chen take over Xuzhou.

Be a hero who follows the emperor.

I thought about these in my mind.

Chen Deng looked towards the direction of Guangling County with burning eyes.

------

Xuzhou.

Guangling City.

"Zhang Jun, when will the grain and fodder be delivered to the three counties?"

Civil and military officials gathered in the hall of the county government.

Zhang Chao sat in the first seat and asked the county magistrate first.

"Sir Governor, the grain harvest has already begun in the three counties. I believe it won't be long before it is transported to Guangling."

Zhang Jun replied respectfully.

Guangling County originally had four counties under its jurisdiction.

But now Jiangdu County is occupied by Ye Chen's Yellow Turban Army.

Naturally, four counties became three counties.

"Ziyuan, soldiers in the army, how is the training going?"

Zhang Chao looked at Zang Hong.

Currently, the only capable general under Zhang Chao is Zang Hong.

So, just catch him and beat him to death.

"Governor, we have recruited soldiers from all the counties. They have all been trained and are ready to go as soon as you give the order."

"it is good!"

Zhang Chao clapped his hands in praise.

Last time, I fell into Ye Chen’s trap.

They were defeated at his hands.

In order to deal with Ye Chen.

Zhang Chao no longer cared about militarism.

If you can't deal with Ye Chen.

He was about to be dealt with by Ye Chen.

The only thing to be thankful for is.

He did not wait for Ye Chen to become powerful.

Instead, he listened to Cao Cao and attacked in advance.

Really wait for Ye Chen to develop and gain a firm foothold.

He felt that there was no need to hit him, so he could just touch his neck.

Fortunately.

Now we have gathered 30,000 soldiers and horses.

There is still a chance to wipe out Ye Chen.

"Once the food and grass arrive, we will immediately dispatch troops to Jiangdu County to wipe out the Yellow Turban Army and bring peace to the world!"

A cold light flashed in Zhang Chao's eyes.

This time.

No matter what, Ye Chen must be killed.

The shame of the last defeat.

He must get it back.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good!"

"Ye Chen is leading his army here, and is now ten miles away from Guangling City!"

Just when Zhang Chao was discussing the matter.

The soldier outside who reported the news hurried into the county hall and reported anxiously.

"What??"

"Ye Chen is already outside the city?"

Zhang Chao stood up suddenly.

During this period, in order to prevent Ye Chen's Yellow Turban Army from stealing the city.

He deployed a large number of scouts around Guangling City.

I thought Ye Chen would come.

Also came secretly.

Use some conspiracy to secretly capture Guangling City.

Never imagined.

Ye Chen just hit him head-on.

its not right!
All major battles must take place after the autumn harvest.

Otherwise, food and fodder cannot be supplied.

If a stalemate is formed.

The side that is short of food and fodder will inevitably collapse.

This is military common sense.

Could it be that Ye Chen's party had completed the harvest of the crops so quickly? ?
"go!"

"Follow me, the governor, and take a look outside the city!"

Zhang Chao waved his sleeves and led everyone towards the city gate.

Wait for Zhang Chao to stand on the city gate.

I saw clouds of dust rising on the horizon not far away.

Tens of thousands of soldiers rushed towards Guangling City from afar.
