"My lord, my lord, it's not good. The Yellow Turbans are raiding the country. Ying Shao cannot stop them. They abandoned their carriages to protect the commander and defended Fenggao. Now the Yellow Turbans are attacking Jibei Kingdom. Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei Province, sent an urgent report. I can no longer resist it."
Zhou Chi, the chief secretary of Yanzhou, came to Liu Dai and reported the news of the Yellow Turban to him.
"What? Bao Xin can't resist it anymore?"
After hearing Zhou Chi's words, Liu Dai stood up directly and took Bao Xin's battle report.
"Hechang, what should we do?"
After reading Bao Xin's battle report, Liu Dai was completely panicked.
Although he is now named the governor of Yanzhou, the places he controls are extremely limited. He only has Jibei Kingdom, Rencheng County, Taishan County, Jiyin County and the former Dongjun. Now Dongjun has been occupied by Cao Cao, and Taishan County cannot protect itself.
, the only two counties he can really command are Gucheng and Jiyin.
"My lord, although the Yellow Turbans claim to have millions, it is just a bluff. Ying Shao can still defeat 300,000 Yellow Turbans with the power of Mount Tai, but they are just mediocre.
Now Cao Cao dominates Dongjun, and Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei, has an old relationship with Cao Cao. If we don't save him, Cao Cao will definitely send troops to rescue him. When the time comes, Dongjun and Jibei will unite, which will be very disadvantageous for our lord."
Zhou Chi thought for a moment and expressed his opinion.
"You mean Jibei Kingdom must be saved?"
After listening to Zhou Chi's words, Liu Dai couldn't help but frown.
"Yes, Jibei Kingdom is the key. If Jibei Kingdom is lost, Cao Cao can completely drive through Dongping Kingdom to Jibei Kingdom under the banner of driving away the Yellow Turbans. Dongping Kingdom is weak and it will be difficult to resist Cao Cao's army. When the time comes, Dongjun, Dongping Kingdom,
If Jibei Kingdom falls into Cao Cao's hands, Yanzhou will be in danger."
Zhou Chi looked very far. The Jibei Kingdom was a key point. Even if Liu Dai did not send troops, Cao Cao would never let go of this opportunity. When the three counties were connected in a line, Cao Cao would be unable to contain him.
"What He Chang said is true. He sent me an order to appoint Zheng Sui, the Prime Minister of the city, to lead an army of 15,000 as the vanguard, and the prefect of Jiyin, Wu Zi, to lead an army of 20,000 as the rear. I myself will lead 60,000 troops to march north to the Kingdom of Jibei."
"promise."
After all, Liu Dai was the governor of one side. After slaying the prefect of Dongjun, his troops reached their peak. Bao Xin had 30,000 troops, Ying Shao had 20,000 troops, and Zheng Sui, the city's prime minister, was small but had 10,000 troops.
Five thousand people, including the 20,000 troops of Wu Zi, the prefect of Jiyin County,
His troops have reached more than 100,000 people, which is also his biggest reliance to dare to fight against the millions of Yellow Turbans.
Liu Dai issued an order, and all counties took action upon hearing the news. Among them, Zheng Sui, the Prime Minister of Rencheng, responded the fastest. Fifteen thousand troops and horses were ready within two days and set off directly.
Liu Dai took a little longer, and on the fifth day he also led his army north to Jibei Kingdom, but Wu Zi from Jiyin County was dragging his feet and had no intention of setting off.
Jibei Kingdom lost several counties in a row in more than ten days, but Bao Xin relied on his soldiers and horses to be extremely stable and guarded Sheqiu County, the road south of Liu Dai. However, Feicheng in the north was occupied by the Yellow Turbans, which was equivalent to cutting off the follower.
Lu County connections.
After Zheng Sui, the Prime Minister of Ren City, led his army to Jibei Kingdom, he did not hesitate. He immediately left Snake Hill and attacked Feicheng. As a pioneer, he had the responsibility to open the passage to the north.
It took about three days after Zheng Sui sent troops, and Liu Dai also led his troops to Snake Hill.
"What? Zheng Sui led his troops to attack Feicheng alone? What nonsense? Come, prepare to send troops."
Hearing that Zheng Sui was leading the attack alone, Liu Dai almost died of anger.
You must know that although the Yellow Turbans like to falsely report their output, the so-called million is probably around ten or two hundred thousand. Even if the troops attacking Feicheng are just partial troops, there must be at least tens of thousands. He just led the troops there. I really don’t know.
The sky is thick and the earth is thick.
"Lord, Zheng Sui is in danger. We need to send troops quickly to support them. However, our army has just arrived here and has no rest. If we send troops rashly, I'm afraid."
The chief secretary Zhou Chi also came to Jibei Kingdom with Liu Dai. When he learned about Zheng Sui's actions, his eyebrows immediately knitted together.
"Then you mean to let it go?"
After listening to Zhou Chi's words, Liu Dai couldn't help but frown.
"We still need to save, but we must pay attention to the method. My lord, the only solution for now is to use your private army."
Zhou Chi thought for a moment and directly stated his method.
"My private army?"
Hearing Zhou Chi's words, Liu Dai was stunned.
Liu Dai had quite a lot of family resources. In addition to Yanzhou's troops and horses, he also used his family resources to form a private army. This private army consisted of 3,000 people, all of whom were cavalry, and was known as the Broken Mirror Army.
The Po Jing Army is Liu Dai's support, and the three thousand cavalry can guarantee his life at any time.
"Yes, now there is only the Broken Mirror Army."
Zhou Chi couldn't help but nodded.
"No, my private army cannot be moved."
Regarding Zhou Chi's proposal, Liu Dai couldn't help but shook his head.
"Lord, if you want the whole army to go to rescue, the Po Jing Army will still go with you. Instead of doing this, it is better to send the Po Jing Army directly and fight. Even if you can't defeat it, the Yellow Turban Army will not be able to catch up."
Zhou Chi thought for a moment and then admonished Liu Dai again.
"Is everything really okay?"
After listening to Zhou Chi's words, Liu Dai couldn't help but hesitate.
"Although the Yellow Turban bandits are ferocious, they do not have an organized cavalry force. There is absolutely no risk to the Broken Mirror Army."
Seeing that there was a door, Zhou Chi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and quickly struck while the iron was hot, admonishing him again.
"Liu Ping."
"The humble duty is here."
"Immediately lead the Broken Mirror Army to Feicheng and be sure to rescue Han Sui."
"promise."
Liu Ping is Liu Dai's family general, and this broken mirror army is his private army, so he can rest assured only when he accepts his fate.
Without resting, Liu Ping led his Pojing Army to find the right direction and rushed towards Feicheng.
Zheng Sui was a fool. He rushed to Feicheng without staying for two days. After a short rest, he ordered an attack on the city. However, the Yellow Turban Army came to attack the city. The entire army of 15,000 soldiers and horses was wiped out, including his own little ones.
My life was lost there.
"Boss, do you know who is here this time?"
A young commander brought the news he had just received from the prisoners and came to Guan Cheng, the commander of the partial army in charge of Feicheng.
"who?"
Guan Cheng was confused for a while, and he was a little confused when faced with the sudden appearance of the enemy.
"Zheng Sui was appointed Prime Minister of the City."
Xiaoshuai's face was full of smiles.
"Zheng Sui, Prime Minister of Ren City? Why is he here? If you have any news, please tell me immediately. Don't hide it."
Guan Cheng became even more confused when he heard that the enemy this time was Zheng Sui.
"Boss, this Zheng Sui is just a vanguard. Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, has also come with his troops. I guess we should be arriving at Sheqiu by now. By the way, it seems that Wu Zi, the prefect of Jiyin, is coming with them."
Xiaoshuai directly told everything he knew.
"Liu Dai is here? Immediately send someone to pass the news to my elder brother, saying that a big fish has arrived, and asking him to quickly send troops to support him. If Liu Dai is killed, Yanzhou will be in chaos."
A glimmer of wisdom flashed in Guan Cheng's eyes. Liu Dai was the governor of Yanzhou. If he were to be killed, Yanzhou would be left without a leader, which would be of great benefit to his own plans.
