Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

Afterwards, Zhang Fei and Xu Chu fought, and Xu Chu then led the local militia to join Liu Bei.

The group arrived at Mount Tai and discovered that the officials there didn't even have a decent set of clothes.

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping arrived, bringing Chen Xi 100,000 dan of grain transported from other places. After Chen Xi discussed the scale with them and secured final command, he let them go.

After that, Chen Xi worked on government affairs with Fan Qin, Jian Yong, Jiang Shu, and Zhao Yun.

Hua Xiong went to Chang Xi's location and chopped him up. Even if he was the governor of Xuzhou Donghai, it was the same. How dare he plunder Mount Tai!

Afterwards, Jiang Shu gathered the remaining three rivers and five schools and the White Horse Righteous Cavalry, and went to cause trouble for the other Taishan bandits with a smile.

Zang Ba said worriedly, "Liu Bei is coming. His subordinates Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Hua Xiong are all warriors capable of defeating ten thousand men. Our days are numbered."

Sun Huan remained silent for a moment before saying, "Liu Bei's troops are the elite of the land, and it seems they can rival your troops."

Yin Li sneered, "So many prefects of Mount Tai have come and gone, each one promising to suppress bandits, but which one actually did it?"

"Leaving aside whether Liu Bei even had that idea, even if he did, could his mere ten thousand men really wipe out the three hundred thousand bandits of Mount Tai?"

"How is that possible?"

Do you think he's like Sun Tzu, Wu Qi, Han Yu, and Bai Juyi?

Wu Dun nodded and said, "If that doesn't work, we'll gather the bandits and besiege Fenggao City for a few days. Even if Liu Bei is a warlord under Hulao Pass, it won't be so easy for him to deal with us!"

Zang Ba remained silent. Compared to Yin Li and Wu Dun, he was not so optimistic. Perhaps only he knew the terrifying level of Liu Bei's army.

The Xiliang cavalry, the army that Dong Zhuo used to dominate the world.

In the forest, Jiang Shu looked indifferently at the Taishan bandits' camp.

"Chen Zhe, Xu Chu, what do you think of this camp?" Jiang Shu asked with a smile.

Chen Zhe was the captain of Liu Bei's personal guard for Jiang Shu. He was from Youzhou. Since ancient times, Yan and Zhao have been home to many righteous men. He was a veteran from the Hulao Pass period.

Xu Chu scratched his head and said, "Strategist, I don't seem to feel anything. They all look the same to me."

Chen Zhe asked cautiously, "Is the deployment of their barracks different?"

"Yes, part of Zang Ba's army consists of Danyang elites. Danyang elites, their soldiers have terrifying organizational and coordination abilities, and they are terrifyingly skilled," Jiang Shu said, shaking his head.

"Changshui, get ready, release it, and give them a heads-up!" Jiang Shu said coldly.

Countless attacks swiftly swept into the camp.

"not good!"

"Brothers, there's an attack!"

Then chaos erupted inside the tent. After all, they were just a bunch of bandits; you couldn't expect too much.

However, compared to this chaotic band of bandits, Zang Ba's elite troops from Danyang were orderly and retreated in formation, even helping each other to block arrows.

Jiang Shudao said, "Yue cavalry, charge and divide the battlefield!"

A thousand Yue cavalrymen charged across the plains like tigers crouching on a plain.

With its airflow manipulation and sharp cutting ability, it was like cutting melons and vegetables when facing these soldiers who weren't even wearing armor.

Zang Ba's pupils contracted. He had faced the Yellow Turbans before, so how could he not see what the soldiers' talents were?

"Are you kidding me? Three Rivers Five Schools?" Zang Ba said in disbelief.

"Tiger Warriors, suppress them as a whole!" Jiang Shu commanded.

"Danyang shoots arrows!" Zang Ba roared.

Countless arrows attacked back.

Jiang Shu sneered, "Comparing archery to the sound of the Changshui River?"

"Sound effect, pinpoint kill!"

Arrows shot out in unison, arrows of will, instantly shooting into the camp.

The Tiger Warriors raised their shields and advanced step by step.

Jiang Shu mounted his horse, charged into the tent, and roared, "Surrender and you will not be killed!"

"Danyang, kill him!" Zang Ba roared, dodging arrows as he dodged the arrows.

Countless arrows were shot at Jiang Shu, but... it was useless. Jiang Shu dared to appear because he was confident that he would not be hit by the arrows. Have you ever seen a wise man with spiritual talent get hit by an arrow?

Jiang Shu, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes as he looked at Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and the others directing the chaos, said, "Xu Chu, bring them here!"

Xu Chu, riding a lean horse, unleashed a powerful blow that cleared away all obstacles in the road before charging towards the elite troops of Danyang.

Jiang Shu commanded the Yue cavalry to open a path for Xu Chu.

Then Jiang Shu simultaneously commanded eighty lines, dividing the entire battlefield.

Using airflow manipulation and sharp cutting, Jiang Shu used these two forces to cleave a Taishan bandit who rushed in front of him.

"No matter how chaotic the army is, it needs cloud energy. If it loses cloud energy, it will be a dead end," Jiang Shu instructed Chen Zhe.

Then Jiang Shu ordered, "Chen Zhe's army, attack and smash the camp!"

A terrifying blow was unleashed from Chen Zhe's hand. This godlike scene completely shattered the morale of the Taishan bandits who had never seen much of the world.

The elite troops of Danyang were able to fight and retreat, but being divided on the battlefield, they seemed unable to demonstrate their dominance over the battlefield.

Xu Chu quickly captured Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and the others.

"The enemy general has been captured, why don't you raise your hands and surrender!" Jiang Shu shouted angrily.

The elite soldiers of Danyang exchanged glances, then laid down their weapons and surrendered.

In this battle, Jiang Shu actually suppressed the Yue cavalry's firepower, preventing them from unleashing their full power, and Chang Shui only fired two volleys.

There was no other way; these were all people, and the Danyang elite troops were one of the strongest armies in the land, a force that was no less formidable than the Xiliang cavalry!

Jiang Shu looked at the surrendered soldiers and threatened, "I hope you will all obey, otherwise I will have no choice but to bury you all alive, just like Lord Wu'an of the Qin Dynasty."

After intimidating them, Jiang Shu led his group towards Fenggao City.

Along the way, Jiang Shu taught Xu Chu and Chen Zhe the basics of troop training and military strategy.

However, Xu Chu didn't seem to listen to any of it. But there was nothing he could do; Xu Chu was Xu Chu, wasn't he? Someone who couldn't even concentrate on reading.

Chen Zhe listened attentively, but it's unclear how much he grasped.

They soon returned to Fenggao City.

"Lord Xuande, I have not failed in my mission!" Jiang Shu said with a faint smile.

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Mingzhi, you've achieved such a great victory with fewer troops, preserving your soldiers. In the future, the million Yellow Turban rebels of Qingzhou will rely heavily on you!"

Jiang Shu laughed and said, "Lord Xuande, this is Zang Ba, this is Sun Guan, this is Yin Li, and this is Wu Dun. We've discussed it with them, and they are all willing to surrender!"

Liu Bei said, "Now is the time when we need men. Since you are willing to surrender, I will accept you. However, my men are different from the bandits of Mount Tai; they have strict rules!"

"Looting the people is absolutely forbidden; anyone caught doing so will be executed without mercy!"

Sun Guan and the others said, "We are willing to obey Lord Xuande's orders!"
