Chapter 142 Seeing Cai Yan for the First Time
"I don't know that lady is in the car, my nephew Liu Bei from Zhuo County will meet you."

Liu Bei rode his horse to the side of the carriage and dismounted to salute.

"Xuande doesn't need to be too polite. Forgive me and other girls who are not easy to see guests. Is there something wrong with Xuande?"

Wu Nong's soft words sounded from the carriage, Liu Bei said: "There is nothing important, one is to visit Madam, and the other is to bring some food."

It took a while in the car to reply: "Xuande has a heart! We have prepared enough expenses, so I don't need Xuande to worry about it!"

The corner of Liu Bei's mouth twitched: "Ma'am, I don't know. The Nanyang Yellow Turban may not be able to calm down for a while! Therefore, Ma'am should accept it, otherwise Mr. Bo Jie will be ashamed to see you again."

"Do you have the face to care about us?"

A young loli who was beyond the mark opened the curtain of the car and glared, and the ten-year-old loli looked particularly cute.

Liu Bei took off the jade pendant and said, "Are you Yan'er or Jue'er?"

Seeing the jade pendant in Liu Bei's hand, little Lolita's big eyes widened a bit angrily: "Why do you have daddy's jade pendant?"

"This is the token of love that Bo Jie gave me in return. How dare Yan'er speak to her husband like this?"

"nonsense?"

Ten-year-old Cai Yan blushed when she saw Liu Bei claiming to be her husband in front of everyone, and scolded: "You are not a slave's husband, a slave has her own husband."

When Cai Yan and Cai Yong returned to the Central Plains from Wuyuan, they were promised to the second son of the Hedong Wei family. The voice and appearance of the younger brother of the Wei family still lingers in Cai Yan's mind.

"Yan'er, come in soon."

Seeing that Cai Yan was deflated, Wu Nong's soft words hurriedly called him into the car, and then said to Liu Bei: "My husband and Liu Sima's promise slaves don't know about it. I hope Liu Sima will forgive me if I am rude."

"Let Madam laugh!"

Liu Bei knew that he had angered Cai Yong's wife, so he left consciously.

The Yellow Turban rebels near Wancheng were suppressed by Liu Bei and Sun Jian. By the time Zhu Jun returned to the city of Wancheng, it was almost mid-October. Going to Luoyang, the capital, the world was shaken for a while, and the remnants of the Yellow Turbans were chased and driven to the deep mountains and old forests.

Zhu Jun went to Wancheng to rest overnight, and ordered people to attack the city early the next morning. He still attacked the east gate, Liu Bei was in charge of the west gate, Sun Jian attacked the north gate, and Qin Jie and Nanyang gentry attacked the south gate.

Although the yellow turban thieves had no eunuch's seal and ribbon, they could not stop the officers and soldiers from going to the city, and the yellow turban thieves on the city wall were so dense that the officers and soldiers could not deploy at all. After several days in a row, the officers and soldiers could not gain a firm foothold on the city wall.Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves were bewitched by Taiping Dao believers, and if they surrendered and rebelled against the army, they would definitely say that they all beheaded.

Zhu Jun watched the siege of the four cities from a high place for several days. Even though there were siege weapons such as building carts and ramming logs, the yellow turbans blocked the four gates with earth and stones, and the city walls were full of people. Huang Zhong, Lu Bu, Sun Jian, Although Zhou Ang and the others fought hard, they couldn't open up too much space under the tactics of the Yellow Turban Bandits. After finally killing dozens of steps, the space was quickly filled with Yellow Turban Bandits.

Seeing the situation at the top of the city, Zhu Jun asked Liu Bei, Qin Jie, Zhang Chao and others behind him: "The thieves are so powerful, Huangfu Yizhen will be able to kill Zhang Bao in a few days, and then the imperial court will come, and we will wait for a long time." If you can't conquer Wancheng, don't talk about your military achievements, and you may follow Lu Shangshu's footsteps."

Lu Zhi was escorted to Beijing after being falsely accused by Shi Changshi because of his long-term inaction.No one at the scene was as famous as Lu Zhi. Once he was escorted to Beijing, the best result would be to be dismissed from office.

Qin Jie gritted his teeth and said, "It's better to dig a tunnel."

Zhu Jun shook his head lightly, Liu Bei had proposed this method a long time ago!Not to mention it took too long, but the behavior of the yellow turban thief on the city wall might never return from entering the city through the tunnel.

"What does Xuande think?"

Liu Bei pondered for a while, and the history books said: Zhu Jun attacked twice and let go of the second, the Yellow Turban Bandits took advantage of the situation and left, and then they were defeated by Zhu Jun. The yellow turban rebels in the army pushed him to be the leader, and the yellow turban rebels took advantage of the situation and hid in Mount Funiu. Zhu Jun fought many times to bring Sun Xia down.Instead of being like in the history books, it is better to wait for the Yellow Turbans to run out of food before breaking the city.

Zhu Jun's burning gaze made Liu Bei uneasy, and he simply told Zhu Jun that he knew the pros and cons, and let him make up his mind: "The book of war says: Surround three and one. Now we are surrounded on all sides to attack, and the yellow scarves know that they have no way out. A battle to the death, if we let the gates on both sides open, the thieves will leave the city, we will surely defeat them, but the remnants of the Yellow Turbans will still wreak havoc again."

Zhu Jun deliberately omitted what Liu Bei said later, and said with a smile: "Xuande is very proficient in reading military books! Ben Zhonglang thinks so too. Let the south and east gates be opened from tomorrow, and step up the offensive against the north and west gates." .”

Seeing that Zhu Jun kept silent about the Yellow Turban's disintegration, Liu Bei hurriedly reminded him: "Gong Wei Gong, how should we deal with the remnants of the Yellow Turban's disintegration?"

Zhu Jun glanced at Liu Bei with some dissatisfaction, and said to Qin Jie with a sneer: "These are the affairs of the local county government, what do you think, Qin Nanyang?"

Qin Jie stroked his beard: "Zhu Zhonglang's words are true, I will definitely kill all the remaining evils."

Liu Bei really didn't have any hope for Qin Jie, who lost Wancheng twice and died at the hands of thieves. I really don't know how he killed Zhang Mancheng?

The next day, the officers and soldiers attacked from the east and north gates, and the west and south gates were abandoned. After a day, the confidence of the Yellow Turban rebels in the two northeast cities was shaken a lot. Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Sun Jian and many other famous generals Together, the northern city wall was almost captured by the government army.

As night fell, Han Zhong, who had been fighting on the city wall for a day, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Sun Xia who rushed over: "How is the situation at the east gate?"

Sun Xia shook his head: "We can't be optimistic, the morale of the army is greatly shaken, I'm afraid Wancheng won't be able to hold it!"

Han Zhongdao: "If you can't keep it, don't keep it. Didn't the officers and soldiers give way to the west and south gates?"

Sun Xia said: "Maybe it's a trick by the government and the army?"

Han Zhong chuckled: "Of course I know that the west gate is flat, and the officers and soldiers must set up an ambush at the west gate, but we go to the south gate, and Yushui is three miles away from the south gate."

Sun Xia made an excuse: "There are many northern troops in the army, and most of them are not familiar with water warfare. We can escape along the water. Tongbai Mountain and Funiu Mountain are our natural barriers."

Han Zhong sighed: "If it weren't for the sudden death of the great virtuous teacher, why would we have made such a bad plan?"

In the dark period when the sky was about to dawn, the west gate of Wancheng suddenly opened wide, and countless yellow turban thieves rushed out roaringly, while the yellow turban thieves who were sent to attack the officials at the east and north gates fled around the city.

Less than ten miles out of the city, the yellow turban thieves heard the sound of horseshoes, and Liu Bei's [-] elite cavalry came to kill them. The dense rain of arrows and javelins caused the yellow turban thieves to break up and flee. It was found that the gate of Wancheng was closed tightly, and the banner of the official army was flying on the top of the city.

The Yellow Turban thieves who had nowhere to go could only surrender again. Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves went out of the city and were driven to death and trampled by [-] fine riders.
