Chapter 40

Another morning came, the sun rose slowly, and the barracks of Licheng army outside Jinan still stood outside the city.

Two yellow turban thieves at the head of the city muttered to each other: "we 20000 people are trapped here by 2000 officers and soldiers. No wonder the general Tiangong supports millions of soldiers and still can't fight into Luoyang City."

"Well, after all, the officers and soldiers are officers and men, and we can't be useful no matter how many of us are."

At this time, many sparrows and birds were gathered on the tent of Licheng military camp, jumping and twittering on them. Although the yellow scarf thieves thought it interesting, they didn't pay much attention to it.

However, it was strange that there was no movement outside for a few hours. A commander of the Yellow turban thief immediately ordered a dozen of his cavalry to go out of the city to check out. The cavalry of the Yellow turban thief reluctantly agreed. As a result, he walked out of the city carefully. There was no one in the city. It turned out that Liu Ye had quietly withdrawn his troops.

When Pang Hun knew the news, he was immediately relieved. His commander suggested that he send a sentry out of the city to investigate Liu Ye's whereabouts. Pang Hun shook his head vigorously.

"Well, it's not easy to send this God of plague away. What's the matter with him? As long as you don't go back to Jinan City, you can go where you love. "

In fact, after receiving a letter from Gongjing, the governor, Liu Ye immediately decided to withdraw overnight and rush to Linzi to rescue Gong Jing.

Before the Yellow turban bandits attacked the city in a hurry, Liu Ye was appointed as the team leader by the county magistrate song he only after he killed the thief. Gong Jing, a serious governor of Qingzhou and a frontier official of the imperial court, are real celebrities who have both fame and official positions. If Gong Jing can be rescued, he will surely be given a big official post.

Now, although Liu Ye is in charge of the 3000 people under his command, his position is only one team leader. Therefore, even the famous generals such as Yujin can only be subordinated to the post of village chief.

Why do we have to force Zhao Kuangyin to add Huang Pao at Chenqiao post? You Zhao Kuangyin became the emperor. Some of our generals are not the founding generals, but the ministers of the dragon? Although the pioneers of all dynasties are ambitious, they can not help but add fuel to the flames. Liu Ye's people also hope that Liu Ye will be promoted step by step, so that he has a promising future.

Therefore, after Liu Ye announced that he was rushing to Linzi to fight with the Yellow turban bandits and rescue the governor Gong Lingjun, the armies of all cities responded in succession, and they all worked hard to make contributions.

However, Liu Ye certainly can't take all the 3000 troops away. Although all the bandits in Jinan are afraid of Liu Ye's prestige and dare not attack Licheng, Licheng is his base camp after all. After thinking about it for a while, Liu Ye left a thousand army horses to Zhao and others, and left them in the county and the military stronghold respectively.

After finishing all the work, Liu Ye takes two thousand steps to ride, and uses the mule cart to pull the grain, grass and supplies, all the way to Linzi city. Liu Ye's troop deployment this time can be described as a big banner, all the way carrying the military flag, the mighty eastward, for fear that others do not know that he is Liu Yuqing.

From Licheng to the East, the Yellow turban thieves in Guozhu County of Jinan, east of Licheng, heard that Liu Ye was coming to the East. They were scared to guard against Liu Ye's death. The Yellow turban thieves who plundered outside did not dare to be presumptuous and ran back to the city.

When the Yellow turban thieves in platform county heard that Liu Ye was coming, they were even more scared to throw them down to the county town and took more than a thousand yellow turban thieves to Yangqiu. No one in Jinan dared to be Liu Ye's edge, either escaping or defending the city. They did not dare to fight.

Until Liu Ye led the army out of Jinan, all the Yellow turban thieves in Jinan breathed a sigh of relief, but even so, they did not dare to attack Licheng.

Who knows whether Liu Ye is coming back? If you don't know, he'll give him an idea? As a result, the city is as stable as Mount Tai. Zhao and others cautiously urged the residents of the city and the Yellow turban thieves to capture farmland and build roads according to Liu Ye's instructions. The garrison in the territory guarded the city and the military stronghold separately, but no one dared to come. He was relieved.

Liu Ye and his party, waiting for more than 2000 people, marched rapidly toward Linzi city with great fanfare. They traveled a hundred miles a day, which was a rare speed among the officers and soldiers.

Liu Ye went to Linzi to deal with the Yellow turban thieves before his trip. It was certainly impossible for him to transport food from Licheng. So he decided to take food nearby. He chased off the Yellow turban thieves all the way and asked for food from various counties. When he arrived in Linzi, he said to the governor Gong Jing, after all, it's urgent to take power. I'll help you drive out the Yellow turban thieves. Can't you get any reward?

Changguo county is the border between Qi county and Jinan state, and it is also the first stop from Jinan state to Qijun. Qijun is the place of governance, so most of the cities are tall and well guarded. Therefore, the city of Changguo is still in the hands of the officers and soldiers. The Yellow turban thief outside the city is Xu he's commander-in-chief, but he is not in a hurry to attack the city. After all, Xu he's aim is to capture Linzi city.

Linzi city is the seat of Qingzhou, where the governor's office is located. Once captured, it is equal to half of Qingzhou. At that time, Xu he will take charge of Linzi and send troops to attack the city. Most of Qingzhou can be easily obtained. Therefore, a small city of Changguo is harmless, and Zhang Zuo, the thief commander, does not pay attention to it. All day long, he is basking in the sun outside the city.

But today, Zhang Zuo couldn't bask in the sun, because someone came from Jinan, and they were officers and soldiers.

"Liu Yuqing?"

Zhang left hand holding the ring head knife, heard the sentinel riding to report immediately happy.

Xu he had already informed his generals that Liu Ye's troops were going eastward, but all the generals under his command didn't take seriously. After all, Pang Hun was not in a good condition. Liu Ye, who could defeat Pang Hun, was probably just like that.Zhang Zuo secretly said in his heart: if someone takes the lead for Qu Shuai, defeats Liu Ye, and appoints him to a commander-in-chief, it may be that Liu Ye is here at the right time.

With this in mind, Zhang Zuo immediately ordered the whole army of 3000 thieves under his command to line up, and did not take charge of Changguo county. It is not a worry that these dog officers and soldiers dare not go out of the city.

At this time, in the distance, the dust was noisy, and a young army and horse were marching forward with a big banner and a black Liu character embroidered on it. It must be Liu Ye's army who came from afar.

Although Zhang Zuo was fighting in battle, the Yellow scarves were careless in training. The so-called formation was just a round formation formed by strenuous efforts. The soldiers of all cities were full of energy and did not pay attention to them at all.

Liu Ye turns to the forbidden way: "Wen Ze, you lead the army to break the thief, Xu Zang, you represent some leading cavalry sudden array."

The three armies can win the commander, and the general is the soul of the first army. Liu Ye can't fight and fight personally. Therefore, he deliberately let his subordinates take command.

Yu ban took over the command with a calm face and ordered the heralds beside him to wave the flag, and the City Army mobilized one after another.

Dong Dong Dong Dong!

The sound of war drums rose to the sky, the horses raised their hooves, the soldiers roared, Zhang Zuo was shocked and frightened, and a trace of fear filled his heart.
