Chapter 1164 Yi Yin's Loyalty Reappears

Jizhou, with Lu Zhi in the south, Dong Zhuo in the west, and Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei in the north, the Yellow Turban Army was trapped in the encirclement of the court.

Unlike Jizhou, the Taiping Dao continued to expand in Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Jingzhou. There was no decent government resistance at all. Those great noble families and wealthy families even closed the doors of their mansions and protected themselves.

This also led to the expansion of the Yellow Turban Army reaching a peak. Many cities occupied by the Yellow Turban Army had more than 100,000 or 200,000 defenders.

This greatly increased the difficulty of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's suppression in the south.

And this was not the highest difficulty for them to challenge the Yellow Turban Army. The troops Liu Hong gave them were not comparable to Lu Zhi at all, with only 400,000 elite soldiers per person.

Among them, 200,000 were the elite of the Yueqi Corps, and 200,000 were the equipment siege soldiers of the Changshui Corps.

It was completely incomparable to Lu Zhi in the north.

The total number of the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Jingzhou is at least more than five million. If these 800,000 people are really used to fight head-on, it will basically be an egg hitting a stone.

However, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are not weak alone. They have a hidden huge helper, that is, the nobles and aristocrats in the three states.

There are many nobles and aristocrats in these three states. The six-level nobles of Shenzhou are gathered in these three states.

If the so-called hired farmers under their command gather together, the number will be very terrifying.

With the idea of ​​inciting the local nobles to resist the Yellow Turban Army, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun kept sending messengers to lobby those foxes.

In this way, the time for Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to enter the three states was greatly delayed. Lu Zhi led his troops to eliminate the Yellow Turban Army in Sili, and even broke through the Jizhou fortress Fanyang City and entered Jizhou.

It is said that His Majesty the Emperor has rewarded Lu Zhi once. And the two of them are still contacting reinforcements.

There is no way. If not, they may not even rush out of Wancheng.

In the military camp in Wancheng, Huangfu Song looked at the people in front of him with a gloomy face.

"Is this your condition? Humph! Now the country is in crisis. If you continue to be so selfish, when the Yellow Turban Army goes crazy, you will definitely be injured!" Huangfu Song shouted angrily.

But in the depths of his eyes, a hint of helplessness emerged.

"Huangfu Zhonglang Jiang, most of the cities occupied by the Yellow Turban Army have people from our major families. As long as we move, many cities will be in our pockets. Who doesn't want such a credit? I just let the children of the clan enjoy the emperor's grace. It's not too much!" An old man smoothed his sheep-horn beard and said calmly.

The old man looked like I have you, Huangfu Song, in my hands.

"Military merit can be divided, but spoils and prisoners cannot. This is the principle!! You are destroying the Yellow Turban Army in order to have a stable environment, which is also beneficial to the development of your family. If you continue to be so anxious, when the Yellow Turban Army's military spirit changes, your mansions distributed in various cities will be in danger." Huangfu Song said in a sonorous and powerful voice.

These vampires actually want to take advantage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to seek the benefits of the people of the world. It's really abominable!

It still takes a long way to encourage these old fox families to fight against the Yellow Turban Army!

However, if the negotiation really fails, then use the next strategy!

A murderous look appeared in Huangfu Song's dark eyes, and the whole person's aura suddenly changed.

His so-called next strategy is to let his soldiers act as the Yellow Turban Army to coerce the people, use a point to lead the whole, fan the flames, and stimulate the greed of the Yellow Turban Army in Jingzhou.

For this strategy, he even planned how to display the spoils and how to fan the fan to the south.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion has been going on for several months, and the hearts of the lower-class peasants have actually changed. They used to be eager to have enough food and clothing. But after the uprising, they not only had good food and drink, but also had a stable city to stay in. So, after solving the problem of food and clothing, what they pursued changed.

After getting what they wanted, they would want more. This change is subtle.

Although Huangfu Song is not as powerful as Lu Zhi, he still has some tricks to check people's hearts. During this period, he was stationed in Wancheng. In addition to contacting the gentry in various cities, he also constantly collected the changes of the Yellow Turban soldiers in Nanyang.

This is also the reason why he dared to formulate that bad plan. As for those suffering people, in his view, it was only temporary!

After discussing for a while, everyone really dispersed again without a conclusion.

Looking at the representatives of the gentry who were laughing and walking away, Huangfu Song narrowed his eyes slightly.

"General, why don't I kill a few of them halfway and then blame the Yellow Turban Army. Especially that guy from the Cai family, he is too arrogant." A general stood up and shouted.

"Although Cai He is arrogant, it's only because the Cai family is powerful in Jingzhou. If he is still so arrogant in the capital of Luoyang, he will be beheaded." Another general said indignantly.

"If you want to kill them, you might as well kill them all!" Huangfu Song said murderously.

"However, this is a bad idea." Huangfu Song's tone changed again: "Forget it, I won't bother with these villains."

"Have you found the mysterious army defending Wancheng?" Huangfu Song turned his head and asked.

"No, after handing Wancheng over to us, they left the city and went south. There was no trace, and they didn't attack the city of Nanyang. It was as if they disappeared."

"I heard from the leader that it was Zhou Tai's army under General Fu Bo Lin Mu, but I always feel that something is wrong." Huangfu Song murmured.

"Why does the general feel something is wrong? It seems that the general has never seen those people?" The man who claimed to be Zhou Tai left after communicating with them, and he had never dealt with them at all.

"Forget it... They went south, and they should also be a hidden force. If the so-called Zhou Tai is a smart commander, he will definitely deal a fatal blow to Zhang Mancheng in Jingzhou!" Huangfu Song said in a deep voice.

In fact, he vaguely felt that something was wrong with that army. Even if he didn't see it in person, he felt something was wrong from a distance. Because the aura of those people was always lingering with a touch of the aura of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban Army defended Wancheng, repelled the Yellow Turban Army, and then handed Wancheng over to the government... It felt really strange.

He could vaguely feel that a huge invisible net was covering the Yellow Turban Army in various counties of Jingzhou.

Even their officers and soldiers were among them.

"Yes, if Zhang Mancheng can be killed, the Yellow Turban Army in Jingzhou will surely collapse. At that time, even if all the credit for Zhang Mancheng is given to Lin Mu, it is not a bad idea."

"That's right! General Lin Mu spent all his money to recruit soldiers to fight against the Yellow Turban Army and defend the Wancheng Fortress. He just did it quietly. He will continue to fight after handing it over to us. He is a man of great righteousness."

Huangfu Song's subordinates seemed to have a very good impression of Lin Mu.

Just as Huangfu Song and the soldiers were discussing Zhou Tai's troops, a fierce battle was taking place in Xinye City, Nanyang.

Two not-so-tall figures kept fighting.

"Who are you? Are you that Zhang Mancheng?" A figure shouted.

The figure on the opposite side suddenly roared: "I am Zhang Huozhu."

"I am the military strategist of the Taiping Dao! Le Jin and Le Wenqian, you can't leave Xinye City today!"

"Military strategist?! Zhang Huozhu?! I've never heard of him, he's just an unknown person! Take my shot!!" The figure roared.

The two guys fighting were Le Jin and Zhang Huozhu.

As for why the two met here, only they themselves knew.

"Tricks! Let's fight!!" Zhang Huozhu was a strategist, but at this moment he actually raised a big knife and fought with Le Jin.

The two of them were evenly matched.

The majestic air waves continued to roll away, making the people around who were watching the excitement hold their breath and concentrate, watching this rare battle.

"Dangdang!!!" The two figures crossed each other, and the harsh clanging sound continued to echo over the city.

"Yes! As expected, you are a subordinate general with extraordinary combat power!" After fighting for a while, Zhang Huozhu suddenly laughed.

However, as soon as this was said, Le Jin on the opposite side changed his face: "How did you know?!"

"Hehe! This military advisor is the Wenquxing who came down to earth, of course I can calculate it!" Zhang Huozhu said with a faint smile.

"And, I also know that you can return to the position of a subordinate general today!" Zhang Huozhu's aura suddenly changed, and the whole person seemed to be a little sharper.

Then, under Le Jin's horrified eyes, Zhang Huozhu took out an ancient and magical tortoise shell.

The tortoise shell with bursts of white fluorescence was held in Zhang Huozhu's left hand, and he held a big knife in his right hand.

"Boom!!!" The horrified Le Jin, his figure did not stop, and continued to attack. And Zhang Huozhu also kept resisting with a big knife.

Le Jin wanted to leave Zhang Huozhu no time to use the tortoise shell.

However, Zhang Huozhu's fighting power seemed to be stronger than Le Jin, and he could even resist Le Jin's fierce attack with one hand.

He pinched it hard, and with a snap, the tortoise shell shattered. Immediately, a strange white light emerged from the tortoise shell, and after a tumble, it suddenly turned into a streak of white lightning and shot towards Le Jin.

This white lightning, as if it had a soul, identified Le Jin, and even if he kept moving, he was hit.

Le Jin, who was hit, did not vomit blood and was safe and sound.

"【Loyalty of Yi Yin】!" At the moment when Zhang Huozhu crushed the tortoise shell, a cry of surprise rang out.

And this cry of surprise came from a burly general.

He had been standing on the city wall in the distance and watching.
