Zhou Sheng sat on someone's back, silently watching the firelight in Julu City.
He set fire to the Yellow Turban Army's food and grass, which made the Yellow Turban Army's already low food reserves even worse.
Moreover, when setting the fire, Zhou Sheng also heard what the grain officer said.
Since five days of food was not enough for a month, he, the food and grass officer, originally thought of running away.
But who would have thought that Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang would find him.
Let him poison Zhang Jiao's food.
He originally didn't dare, but Zhang Bao and Zhang Jue said that if they didn't poison him, he would be killed by Zhang Jue. If Zhang Jue was poisoned, he would still be promoted to general in the future.
When they capture Luoyang City in the future, they can still make him king.
He didn't hesitate for too long before he agreed.
Poisoned Zhang Jiao's food.
Because he was nervous, he hid in the pile of grain and hay and whispered.
But no matter what, Zhou Sheng heard it.
In line with the principle of saving someone's life, Zhou Sheng took him away.
"So Zhang Jiao did not die of illness at all, but was poisoned." Zhou Sheng shook his head and smiled.
But if you think about it carefully, it's true.
Zhang Jiao learned Tianzun's ability and had the ability to turn into talisman water to cure diseases. How could he get sick and die?
If someone hadn't been plotting against him behind his back, he really wouldn't have died.
I just didn't expect that the people who assassinated him were his two brothers.
"Sir, can we go?" the grain officer said weakly.
"Don't worry, it would be a pity not to take a look at such a beautiful fire." Zhou Sheng said lightly.
This fire is the flame that kicked off the Three Kingdoms.
"But, if they chase them out..."
"Then you can just go and die."
Zhou Sheng's words made the grain and grass officer dare not say anything.
"Have you ever eaten meat?"
"Eat."
"White meat."
"Eat... I've never eaten it. I've never eaten it. I definitely haven't eaten it." The grain officer quickly denied.
Zhou Sheng stared at the grain and grass officer, so frightened that the grain and grass officer did not dare to look directly at Zhou Sheng.
His eyes were evasive, afraid to look at Zhou Sheng.
Zhou Sheng could tell from the look in his eyes that this guy had definitely eaten it.
"Go and dig a hole. Dig it before dawn. I forgive you." Zhou Sheng threw the shovel to the grain and grass officer.
"Yes, yes." The grain officer hurriedly dug a hole.
"Forgive you and let you die early." Zhou Sheng thought to himself.
He brought the grain and grass officer out, just to let the grain and grass officer take the blame.
After all, there is a Tianzun in Julu City, and he cannot be allowed to know that he is coming. The poisoning of the grain and grass officer will definitely be found out. When the time comes, it is reasonable for him to set fire to the granary and escape, right?
The fire was getting bigger and bigger. Even if the 300,000 Yellow Turban Army put out all their efforts, they could not put out the raging fire.
All the grain and grass were destroyed, as well as the weapons depot next to the granary, etc.
This fire killed 300,000 Yellow Turban troops.
It's about to dawn.
After the grain officer dug a big hole, he collapsed on the ground panting.
"Sir...dig, huh, huh, it's done."
"Then lie down in it." Zhou Sheng said calmly.
"Ah!" The grain officer was stunned for a moment. He originally asked for mercy, but was kicked in by Zhou Sheng.
"I don't have time to listen to your begging for mercy. You know how many sins you have done." After Zhou Sheng finished speaking, he killed him with a knife and filled the hole in a kind manner.
"It's time to find someone." Zhou Sheng muttered and disappeared.
…
In Julu City.
Black smoke filled the sky, plunging the entire city into deathly silence.
Three hundred thousand soldiers looked at the burned granaries and didn't know what to do.
And in the palace.
Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang had a headache. They originally wanted to divide the world into three parts, but a fire ruined their ambition.
Just when they were anxious in the hall, Zhang Jiao came out.
"Big...brother!" Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were shocked.
Zhang Jiao is not dead?
"Pop!"
Zhang Jiao raised his hand and used two big ear scrapers to knock them both to the ground.
"Look at the good things you have done!" Zhang Jiao shouted angrily.
"Brother, we didn't do it." Zhang Bao said quickly.
"It wasn't you who poisoned me!" Zhang Jiao scolded.
Zhang Bao felt guilty for a while and did not dare to speak.
Zhang Liang, on the other hand, passed the blame to the grain and grass officer.
"Brother, it was the grain and grass officer who poisoned you, not us."
Zhang Jiao looked at Zhang Liang with cold eyes and wanted to slap him to death, but stopped when he saw Tianzun coming out.
"I've seen Tianzun!" Zhang Jiao knelt down on one knee.
Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang quickly knelt down.
Tianzun Zuo Ci walked up and kicked Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang away.
"Trash!" Tianzun yelled.
"Lord Tianzun, you said the world is divided into three parts, but if Brother Zhang Jiao wants to be the emperor, how can we divide it into three parts?" Zhang Liang complained.
"It's not you three who make up the third part of the world." Tianzun said angrily, and then sat on the main seat and said:
"First investigate clearly who burned the granary."
"Zhang Bao, go and bring the grain officer; Zhang Liang, go and comfort the soldiers and tell them that food will be available soon, and anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed!" Tianzun gave the order.
If the grain and grass are burned, it won't take long for a mutiny to occur. You must find food to fill up before the mutiny.
The two of them left in response and went to do their work.
"Zhang Jiao, keep them." Tianzun said.
"But they two poisoned me." Zhang Jiao couldn't swallow this breath.
"Those who succeed in great things should have patience. There are three hundred thousand Yellow Turbans, and the two of them have one hundred thousand each. If they fall out, have you thought about the consequences?"
"As long as I'm here, I'll help you suppress them, but if they two die and you promote two commanders, will they help you?"
After listening to what Heavenly Lord Zuo Ci said, Zhang Jiao couldn't help but retort: "Can't I command three hundred thousand men by myself?"
"You don't have that ability." Tianzun said bluntly.
Not everyone can command an army of 300,000.
It must be a person with the talents of a general and a minister, and the soldiers must be regular soldiers who have been trained and can obey orders.
The 300,000 Yellow Turban Army sounds terrifying, but they are all composed of bandits, hooligans and ordinary people. They work in their own camps and go into battle to kill the enemy with their passion and worship of Zhang Jiao.
Once defeated once, they will be in disarray and it will be difficult to gather together again.
Therefore, after the Yellow Turban Army was defeated once, it was difficult for them to succeed again.
"Sir, with your help, I will definitely be able to command three hundred thousand troops!" Zhang Jiao placed all his hopes on the Heavenly Lord Zuo Ci.
Tianzun Zuo Ci shook his head and said truthfully: "I can't get out until the sky is dead."
"But...I can give you a little help."
After Tianzun Zuo Ci finished speaking, he carved a few words on the paper with Gang Qi.
"You send someone to take this piece of paper, go out from the Bohai Sea, march thousands of miles, and then throw the piece of paper into the water, and someone will come to help." Tianzun handed the envelope to Zhang Jiao.
"Yes." Zhang Jiao said emotionally.
He knew that Tianzun came from the immortal mountains overseas, so he always regarded Zuo Ci as an immortal.
Now Zuo Ci writes to the Immortal Mountain, asking the Immortal to help him!
