Under Linzi City, there are endless military camps as far as the eye can see, as if the entire land of Qi is covered.
The company camp consists of tents, wooden houses, straw sheds, and some buildings made of mixed materials. From a distance, they look mottled and complex, like patches.
However, these unsatisfactory aspects did not damage the strong momentum of the company at all.
Hundreds of thousands of people supported the camp, and they camped for dozens of miles. People who have never seen this scene cannot imagine it; those who witnessed it with their own eyes were shaken by it and their liver and gallbladder were chilled.
From the outside to the inside, the atmosphere of the company camp shows a gradual change. The outside is like a pile of scattered sand, but the inside is orderly and solemn. In addition to the aura of large numbers of people, it also has the chilling atmosphere of a real military camp.
If you look carefully, you will find that there is a defensive fortification between the camp and the outside. Although it is just a trench and a fence, it clearly separates the inside and outside.
In the middle of the main camp, there is a huge military tent, which is more than ten feet in diameter and can accommodate hundreds of people. It is obviously the Chinese military tent.
At this moment, it was like a pot was boiling inside the Chinese military tent, and hundreds of people were making a quarrel.
"Zhang Rao, you said all your good words to teach everyone to come here to make an alliance. You said that with more people, you are more powerful and you can intimidate the surrounding princes. Then you rushed out of Qingzhou to fight for the world, but you can see for yourself what happened.
Son? Fifty thousand people, fifty thousand people! That damned Wang Pengju sent a thousand cavalry and destroyed them! Shock? Who the hell is shocking whom?"
"No, it was Boss Guan who attacked Duchang! He was not an ordinary person. There are hundreds of mountains in Qingzhou. Who dares to say that he can survive fifty moves under Boss Guan's sword? What was the result? The soldiers were destroyed by others.
, I asked a spy to be captured alive. This is the true strength of Taishan soldiers! You actually encouraged us to fight against Taishan? Do you want to die? "
"If you don't go, I definitely won't go!"
"Either you find a way to capture Linzi City and find a place for everyone to stay, or you break up and go back to their homes. I don't want to wait for death here. Wang Pengju's cavalry is very fierce. What if one day?
If I were touched by them at night, I would die without even knowing how."
"That's right, Boss Zhang, you'd better set up the camp in the middle and build a fence and a ditch to block it. Even if Wang Pengju really comes, there will be people on the outside to block you first, and then there will be fences to block him.
No matter how fierce the cavalry is, they can't hurt you, but what should everyone do? If you are really sincere, just remove the fence inside and form a circle outside."
"Yes, Boss Xu couldn't be more right!"
Zhang Rao was sitting on the commander's seat with a sullen face. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He glanced at everyone's faces with cold eyes and sneered in his heart.
Break up? Do you think you are stupid? You will be frightened by such a crude threat.
Who is Wang Pengju? The Qingzhou governor appointed by the emperor! He is different from the famous Jiao Da scholar in Linzi City who can only burn incense and worship gods. This Wang Pengju is ambitious, and he is very good at fighting. He is not an ordinary fighter.
He is the champion of all three armies!
In the past, this person's name was just a myth to everyone. Just listen to the excitement. Luoyang is far away from Qingzhou, so there is no chance for the two parties to meet.
But contrary to expectations, now the legend has become a reality, bloody and cruel in front of everyone!
Where to go after being dispersed?
Go into the mountains and starve?
After years of war, there are more and more bandits, and fewer and fewer people. With fewer people, the harvest is small. Apart from the big counties, prefectures, and prefectures, where is there any surplus food? All the rats and sparrows in the wild have been killed.
, a veritable red land thousands of miles away. It’s winter, and there are no grass roots or tree barks on the mountain. Of the ten people who went up the mountain, at the beginning of spring, at most five came down!
Don't go into the mountains and continue wandering in the wild? Just kidding, Wang Pengju's cavalry is in Beihai and Gongsun Zan's cavalry is in Bochang. These light cavalry have little way to deal with the assembled army. Once they disperse, they will only be defeated by each one!
These idiots are not really stupid, they just want to coerce themselves and give up more resources. Mr. Ziyuan is right, these are a bunch of guys who have little success but more than failure. It is useless to reason with them in a pleasant manner.
, it is just right to threaten and deceive.
"You..." When the crowd's shouts subsided, Zhang Rao spoke coldly, "Have you said enough? If it's enough, you should be so generous and say a few words, right? Or do you plan to despise Huang?
God, do you despise the little Heavenly Master?"
"..." The noise stopped abruptly.
At least half of the hundreds of people present had just tied a yellow cloth on their foreheads this year. They didn't know much about Huang Tian, but they were still quite in awe of the mysterious Little Celestial Master.
The little heavenly master has never shown his face in public, but the magical powers he has shown in several attacks are not as good as those of the legendary great master.
Like Zhang Jiao, he can also use talisman water to treat diseases; even more powerful than Zhang Jiao, he can also pinch and count. It is precisely because of his foresight that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is in its current situation; more importantly, he
He can also create food out of thin air! At the same time, he has the ability to kill people thousands of miles away!
If it were not for the existence of the Little Heavenly Master, Zhang Rao alone would not be able to recruit even the remnants of the original Yellow Turbans, let alone organize an alliance of heroes from all walks of life in Qingzhou.
"Xu He, do you want to enter the inner camp?" Zhang Rao did not give everyone a chance to breathe. He pointed at Xu He, who had made the most noise just now and had outstanding strength. He looked sideways at him and asked with a sneer: "Why?
?”
"Why?" Xu He was slightly startled, then frowned and said: "Whether it is a little heavenly master or a great wise master, don't they all say that the brothers and sisters of Taiping Dao are a family? Since they are a family, why?
Someone..."
"A family?" Zhang Rao interrupted with a cold snort: "Even if we are a family, we are different from concubines to concubines! What is the difference between the inner camp and the outer camp? At the beginning of the alliance, we defeated Jiao He and Kong Rong respectively.
They are all brothers who live in the inner camp. The so-called inner camp is the original camp, and the ones outside are all later!"
"There is no distinction between the family? In all these years, how come you, Mr. Xu, have never taken out money and food to share with others, but instead annexed several heads of family? The brothers in the inner camp have made military exploits and live in a better place. What's the point?
Weird? You want to come in? Okay, there are three groups of enemy troops near Linzi now, you can just pick one to fight..."
"Destroy Liu Bei, and I will let you enter the inner camp; destroy the Taishan cavalry in Beihai, and I will ask the Little Heavenly Master to see you in person; if Laiwu is captured... hum, I will put my words here, the day when Laiwu city will be destroyed
, when you Xu He takes over Dafang! How about it, how do you choose?"
"..." The corners of Xu He's mouth twitched twice and he fell silent.
His territory is in the Banyang County area in the south of Qi State. Over the years, he has not only had the idea of Laiwu City once or twice? But every time he came back disgraced. That was when Wang Yu was not in Taishan, now
The generals stationed in Laiwu were imprisoned, known as the iron wall! It would be strange if they bumped into it rashly and suffered a bloody blow.
Xu He is not afraid of Liu Bei, but the opponent's troops are mainly cavalry. If they can't defeat him, they can run away. How can he chase him with a group of infantry?
As for Beihai... Although Zhang Rao's position on the Beihai cavalry is lower than that of Laiwu, in the hearts of leaders such as Xu He, the Beihai cavalry is more terrifying. The opponent they defeated was Guan Hai, whose martial arts was the best among all the others, and his cunning was second to none.
Guan Hai!
"It is precisely because Wang Pengju is so powerful that we can only attack Mount Tai first..." Xu He was subdued, and no one dared to continue attacking for a while. Zhang Rao also abandoned Xu He and turned to everyone.
"It's too far to go to Xuzhou. Before we get on the road, we have to deal with Zang Xuangao's group. We don't have enough food. There are also a lot of troubles in crossing the river to Jizhou, or from Jinan to Yanzhou. Don't forget, everyone, the raid on Guanhai
Although the soldiers are fighting under the banner of Mount Tai, in fact, half of them are from Youzhou, Baima Yi Cong!"
"His!" There was a gasping sound. The leaders were so frightened by Wang Yu's name that they forgot all about it for a moment.
Zhang Rao looked around and was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He continued to analyze: "Wang Pengju has a strategy. The generals under his command are also ten thousand enemies. But you have also fought in the war. You don't really think that one person can do it."
Defeat a large army, right? Soldiers, soldiers are the key!"
He loudly said: "Think about it, the white horse followers who raided Guan Hai only had a few hundred, but they had such power. However, under Gongsun Zan, there were ten times as many followers, and they were even more numerous and of higher quality.
Ordinary cavalrymen who are not under the White Horse Yi Cong, you are afraid of Wang Yu, but you are not afraid of Gongsun Zan?"
All the leaders were pale and speechless for a long time. Zhang Rao was a bit alarmist, but what he said was true. Gongsun Zan, who had tens of thousands of cavalry, was indeed terrifying.
"...but Bochang's troops don't seem to pose any threat?" After a moment of silence, someone raised a question.
"snort!"
Zhang Rao snorted disdainfully, "This is not the first time you have seen strong soldiers and mediocre generals? Aren't the Qingzhou soldiers strong? How about being in the hands of two useless people, Jiao and Kong? That Liu Bei served in Gaotang in his early years
After passing the county magistrate, the head of Zhao from Licheng went to Gaotang to make a fortune. Then Liu Bei abandoned the city and ran away. With such a man, he doesn't have to worry about bringing any troops."
"I see."
"That makes sense." Everyone nodded in agreement.
Zhang Rao knew that the heat was coming, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "Although Qingzhou's officers and soldiers are now in pieces, there are still tens of thousands of troops in various counties and counties. These troops are in Jiao He's hands, and they are just decorations, but if
After joining Wang Pengju's command, then..."
He played a long note, leaving some time for everyone to think. When he saw the smart people's expressions of surprise, and then their expressions changed drastically, he expressed his final meaning.
"At that time, what we will face is a situation of wolf in front and tiger in back! Even if we go to Yanzhou, our army will march slowly. By the time we reach Licheng and start attacking the city, the Taishan Army may have expanded to tens of thousands.
Everyone, by then, do you still want to have a good ending?"
"What Zhang Shuai said is true." More and more people agree.
"Right now, Wang Pengju only has 8,000 men. The county soldiers in Qingzhou are scattered everywhere and cannot be gathered together. The only threat is his light cavalry. Liu Bei's 3,000 men are also a problem, but that's all."
Zhang Rao said in high spirits: "What about us? Although Guan Qushuai was assassinated, there are nearly 300,000 people under Linzi City. They have also defeated Jiao and Kong, and their reputation has been greatly increased. Heroes from all walks of life in the state are constantly gathering here.
, As long as we fight steadily and march westward, even if Wang Yu has the power to reach the sky, in front of an army of 300,000, he can only block the chariot with his arm."
"Well said!" Inspired by the scene described by Zhang Rao, the leaders cheered one after another.
"That's true, but there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Linzi City, and Taishan has a partial army in Beihai... If the army marches westward, wouldn't it..." Not many people did not join the cheers, Xu He was
One of them.
"Of course we can't just leave Linzi alone, but there's nothing to worry about. Don't forget, there is a Little Heavenly Master in our army, and Linzi City is nothing compared to his magical power!"
Zhang Rao encouraged and said with confidence: "I didn't take action before, but the time has not come yet. The little heavenly master needs time to do it. Now, the army has gathered, the time has come, and within ten days, there will be results! Please wait for the good news." (
