Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 58 After the War
In mid-June of 185 AD, Zhao Lei strategized and defeated Zhang Jiao in the battle of Yecheng that lasted for more than two months.However, thanks to Zhao Lei's help, Zhonglang General Huang Fusong successfully led the rehabilitated army and recovered Jizhou.As a result, the land of Jizhou, which was devastated by the flames of war, finally ushered in a respite.

In the restaurant in Yecheng, Huangfusong booked the entire restaurant to celebrate the victory with his subordinates.

"This time we were able to defeat the Yellow Turban Bandits and complete the mission of recovering Jizhou. It is really gratifying. Come, I offer a toast to all of you." Huangfusong raised his wine glass and said to everyone.

"Our army can achieve such a victory only thanks to the wise leadership of your lord." An unknown general flattered.

To be honest, the reason why he flattered Huangfusong so much was because he might not see Huangfusong normally, so he naturally wanted to perform well on this occasion to attract the attention of his superiors.

Zhao Lei and his subordinates were sitting in a corner drinking alone, while Huang Fusong, who watched coldly, was surrounded by those low-level generals.And Cao Cao, like Zhao Lei, sat with Bao Xin, and seemed to be chatting about something, and the chat was very speculative.

"Brother, look at those bragging and flattering people, you know they are flattering Huangfusong. When they are asked to fight the enemy, one or two of them are all shrinking heads." Zhao Yun looked at the people over there with disdain.

"My lord, I have already said that only power can decide everything. Today's scene fully proves this truth." Jia Xu laughed.

"Maybe! No matter what, we have had enough limelight in this war anyway, at least everyone in the world knows me, Zhao Lei." Zhao Lei changed the topic when he heard Jia Xu mention Han Fu's example again.

"My lord should bid farewell to Huangfusong tomorrow and go to Youzhou. Otherwise, there will be changes." Seeing that Zhao Lei changed the subject, Jia Xu didn't say anything more, took a sip of wine and continued Zhao Lei's words.

"I thought so too," Zhao Lei said.

"But it's not that the subordinates don't understand why the lord must go to Youzhou?" Jia Xu couldn't help asking.

"To meet someone." Zhao Lei replied simply.

"Who?" "Maybe my enemy for life." Zhao Lei said.

Jia Xu was silent.

The next day Zhao Lei arrived at Huangfusong's barracks very early.

"Farewell?" Huangfusong asked Zhao Lei where he wanted to go in surprise.

"I want to go to Bingzhou to support General Lu Zhi, and then join forces with him to take back Youzhou and capture Zhang Jiao, the traitor," Zhao Lei said.

"So that's how it is." Huangfusong twisted his beard, thinking about it.

"I wonder if my lord agrees?" Seeing that Huangfusong didn't respond, Zhao Lei felt a little uneasy and couldn't help asking.

"In that case, let Zihan go! Here is my token. This token can pass through any pass of the big man. Zihan will definitely use it when he passes through Huguan. If I hadn't received the order of the general , let me stay in Jizhou, otherwise I would have sent troops to help him." Huangfusong said clearly and put gold on his face.

"Let's do this, Zihan. You don't have many troops right now. I'll give you another 1 troops to go to Bingzhou and help Zigan take back Youzhou." Huangfusong continued.

"Thank you, my lord." Zhao Lei saluted Huang Fusong, took the token, and walked out of the tent.

It's finally time to leave Jizhou and venture out, Zhao Lei thought as he walked out of Huangfusong's barracks.

Back at the military camp in the south of the city, Zhao Lei issued Huangfusong's order, ordering the three armies to prepare for dispatch and set off for Bingzhou tomorrow morning to assist Lu Zhi.After a while, Zhao Yun led more than 1 soldiers given by Huangfusong to the south of the city camp.However, the originally deserted military camp in the south of the city suddenly had so many people, it seemed very lively.

"My lord, there is a messenger from Yangzhou to report." Zhao Yun also brought back information from the Yangzhou envoy in the army.

"Call the messenger to our tent," Zhao Lei said.

"My subordinates will see the lord." The messenger said.

"It's been more than two months, time flies so fast, I wonder if Yangzhou will be safe?" Zhao Lei asked.

"Returning to my lord, everything in Yangzhou is fine. The 1 troops sent by General Wenpin and my lord have already arrived in Wu County. Mr. Ju has hidden these troops in the mountains to avoid being discovered. But Mr. Ju said that Lu of Wu County The family seems to have discovered these subtle changes in Wujun, so Mr. Ju asked the Lord to hurry up and come to Yangzhou to stabilize the situation. Here is Mr. Ju's letter." The messenger handed the letter to Zhao Lei.

After Zhao Lei read the letter, he asked the messenger again, "Is Lu Su okay now?"

"My lord, Lord Lu is busy with the teahouse affairs with Lord Jushou every day, everything is fine," said the messenger.

"Okay, I understand. You have worked hard, go down and rest!" Zhao Lei said.

The messenger saluted and walked out of the camp.

"After finishing the affairs in Youzhou, we have to hurry up and buy officials from Yangzhou. If this continues, those Jiangdong families will discover our power sooner or later." Zhang Han said.

"It seems that we really have to hurry up. But having said that, it is really amazing that Jushou can gain a firm foothold in Yangzhou in such a short period of time. Sure enough, he is a talent." Zhao Lei said.

"Not only that, but our power can attract the attention of the Jiangdong family in such a short period of time. It seems that Jushou has injected a lot of our manpower into Wu County, and it will be much easier to take over Yangzhou in the future." Zhang Han said .

"Although Zhang Jiao's appearance once disrupted my deployment, everything is still in the plan now. After we help Lu Zhi pacify Youzhou, we will find a way to return to Yangzhou." Zhao Lei said.

"I think the Yellow Turban Rebellion should be almost over by then. It's also a good time for us to go to Yangzhou." Zhang Han said with a smile.

After Zhao Lei and Zhang Han finished discussing, Zhang Han returned to his camp to rest and rushed to Bingzhou tomorrow.

On the second day, Zhao Lei's army set off from the west gate of Yecheng, preparing to pass through Huguan, pass through Shangdang, and finally arrive at Jinyang.After Zhao Lei's army won the battle of Yecheng, they attacked again, shaking the world.Zhao Lei's attack also intentionally or unintentionally boosted the morale of the imperial army in other places.

Zhao Lei sent people to quickly inform Lu Zhi first, and then sent some spies to infiltrate the counties and counties of Youzhou to inquire about information.

In the past few months, the war in the Central Plains has been raging like a raging fire.Qingzhou has been occupied by an army of [-] led by Zhang Bao, and now Zhang Bao is leading his troops to fight Zhu Jun in Xuzhou.On the other hand, Zhang Liang captured Yuzhou, but suffered a defeat when attacking Yanzhou. Now he is retreating from Yuzhou, recuperating, and intends to fight again.As the main battlefield, Jizhou had already ended the battle ahead of schedule due to Zhao Lei's heroic performance.Now Zhang Jiao fled to Youzhou with the remnants of his troops, refusing to guard the main roads in Youzhou, and shutting himself out.Generally speaking, the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty has entered a fierce stage. The Yellow Turban Army has changed from the original offensive to the defensive, and its own strength has been continuously weakened under the fierce attack of the imperial army.

But Zhao Lei left Yecheng for Bingzhou, had been walking for five days, and finally arrived at Huguan today.Originally, the journey from Yecheng to Huguan only took three days, but when Zhao Lei passed by Changshan, he suddenly remembered that he had some unfinished business, so he stayed in Changshan for two days to deal with the unfinished business.

What is it?It turned out that Zhao Lei didn't forget to take away the last bit of coffee beans on Changshan before he left. He ordered his five thousand soldiers to search everywhere on Changshan, not letting go of even a piece of turf.Zhao Lei is going to take all these coffee beans to Yangzhou, so that Yingcha will disappear in Hebei.

On the fifth day they came to Huguan. The name of Huguan also has a source, because there is Baigu Mountain in the north of Huguan, and Shuanglong Mountain in the south. The mouth is the pass, hence the name Huguan.Although this checkpoint in Bingzhou is not as majestic as the one in Hangu Pass, it still makes Zhao Lei feel relaxed and happy.

"What a majestic checkpoint." Zhao Lei sighed.

"With the mountain as a danger, you can defend it." Jia Xu also said.

"Who is shutting down and leading the troops here?" While Zhao Lei was admiring the scenery of the checkpoint, the soldiers shutting down shouted to Zhao Lei who was under the gate tower.

"Changshan prefect Zhao Lei was ordered by General Zhonglang, Lord Huangfu, to lead troops to assist Lord Lu Zhi." Zhao Lei replied.

The soldier knew about this a long time ago, and then asked, "Do you have a token?"

Zhao Lei held up Huangfusong's badge high up to show to the soldier, the soldier glanced at it briefly, then ordered the switch to let Zhao Lei pass.

"Prefect Zhao, be careful. There have been a lot of thieves here recently, robbing money and killing people." The soldier said to Zhao Lei as he walked down the gate tower when Zhao Lei passed the pass.

"Thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention." Zhao Lei smiled.

"The eunuch is good to go." The soldier bid farewell.

After passing through Huguan, Zhao Lei could vaguely see Shangdang City after walking less than ten miles, so he urged to speed up the march and strive to enter Shangdang before dark.

Suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of Zhao Lei. The leader rode a horse and held a big knife, and shouted at Zhao Lei: "Leave your money, and I will let you live."

Zhao Lei saw that it was a robbery, and remembered what the Huguan soldiers said earlier.So he walked forward and said with a smile: "Don't you know that I am a court official? There are more than 1 troops behind me. Are you looking for death by robbing me?"

"More than 1 people are nothing, I am not afraid! Come here if you have the ability! You little bastard." The man scolded.

"Clean up your mouth." Zhao Yun said angrily.

"What are you? You are not clean!" the man said without any fear of Zhao Yun.

"Dian Wei, I leave it to you, take this man down." Zhao Lei turned to Dian Wei and said.

"Yes, my lord." Hearing Zhao Lei's order, Dian Wei applauded and rushed towards the man.

The two sides fought for more than ten rounds, regardless of victory or defeat.

"This man's martial arts is as good as Dian Wei's? Who is this man?" Zhang Han asked in surprise.
