Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 64 Triumph
Wancheng.

The prefect's mansion.

Zhang Zi sat kneeling at the head of the hall, with a face as gloomy as water, and kneeling on the left and right sides of him were Jun Cheng Liu Jin and Chang Shi Tan Song. breath.

"Your Majesty, Ji Yi sent a message. Now the Mushan army is ready to go out of the mountain and return to Wuyin. Once they return to Wuyin, capture Wuyin, and defend the city, it will be difficult to deal with it. Should we forcibly encircle and suppress it, or let the tiger go back to the mountain? Lord Fu Zun decides!"

Kneeling in front of the report was County Captain Huang Meng, and Huang Meng said to Zhang Zi with cupped hands.

In the battle of Tufushan, they had a very good idea. Let Mushan and Tufushan's rebel army fight to the death, and then they send troops to clean up the mess. They can not only eliminate the banditry in Tufushan, but also suppress Mushan.

But I didn't expect the final result to be unexpected.

This battle did not start at all, Mushan dared to be alone like a mountain, and with his sharp tongue, he persuaded all the thieves in Tufushan to take over their soldiers and horses, and now they have more than [-] soldiers and horses. Power soared.

This time they scared the Nanyang Prefect's Mansion quite a lot.

After all, with so many soldiers and horses, Mushan is already capable of rebelling. Once Mushan rebels, Nanyang will inevitably fall into chaos, and the response of all parties will put Wancheng in danger.

"This is the fault of this government. This government underestimated Mu Shan's ability!"

Zhang Zi said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect Mushan to be so courageous. He persuaded the bandit leader alone and accepted the surrender of thousands of soldiers. Now Mushan has more than [-] soldiers and horses. The fighting power is so strong that even if Ji Sima led his troops to attack it, it would be difficult. If it works, even with Mu Shan's bravery, he may be killed by him, and it is not worth the loss to attack us!"

Now he has begun to regret giving Mu Shan a talisman, but he should never have let Mu Shan leave Wancheng.

But he won't admit that he has some regrets.

He could only grit his teeth and face the current situation.

Mushan recruited thousands of rebel soldiers from Tufushan, and had more than 3000 soldiers. Even if it was not as strong as the prefect's mansion, it was the entire Nanyang territory, only under the army of this county.

Not to mention that Nanyang County can't clean up a Mushan.

After all, Mu Shan was just a Yellow Turban bandit. The Yellow Turban Rebellion swept across the entire Nanyang County, and countless people in Nanyang suffered. Therefore, the reputation of the Yellow Turban Army plummeted.

Besides, Nanyang County is very large, both in terms of population and harvest, it ranks first in the imperial court, even bigger than Runan County, and in terms of military strength, Nanyang Taishou Mansion has nearly tens of thousands of county soldiers. Dealing with Mushan is not difficult.

But there is one thing. Today's Nanyang County looks like a group of harmony on the surface, but it is actually a mess.

As long as he sends out troops, interested people from all sides will definitely take the opportunity to leave, and Nanyang will be in chaos.

When Nanyang was in chaos, his entire Nanyang prefect had an inescapable responsibility.

So he began to fear Mushan.

"Are we going to let the tiger go back to the mountain?" Tan Song raised his head, looked at Zhang Zi with lucid eyes, "My lord, if we release the beast from Mushan back to Wuyin, wouldn't we just sit and watch him separatize Wuyin County?"

With Mu Shan's troops, Wuyin was separatist, and they probably wouldn't be able to fight Mu Shan to the end.

"Tan Changshi, do you have a good plan?" Zhang Zi asked coldly.

"It's better to let Huang Duwei lead his troops to go south, join Ji Sima, kill him by surprise, and annihilate him in Tufu Mountain in one go!" Tan Song said coldly, with murderous intent.

"Tan Changshi, do you know what the consequences will be if Wancheng is empty?"

Liu Jin said coldly.

"Nanyang is safe and peaceful now, as long as the battle is resolved quickly, everything should be fine!" Tan Song himself was embarrassed when he said this, but he was a little bit upset when he was asked to let the first fierce general of the Nanyang Yellow Turban that was killed by the Nanyang family turn upside down. really thankful.

"Humph!"

Liu Jin sneered, and handed out a piece of cloth: "Look, this is the residence report just issued by the imperial court!"

"Residence newspaper?"

Tan Song took it over, looked at it, and his pupils changed color slightly: "Hedong Baibo Yellow Turban made chaos and attacked more than ten cities in a row..."

This happened at the end of February, and now it's almost the end of March, and the court started to react, but it was too late. Baibo Yellow Turban has accumulated strength over the years, allowing Baibo Yellow Turban Qushuai Guo Tai to quickly use more than [-] troops, from Xihe to Hedong , the war situation has been eroded.

"How could this be?" Tan Song frowned: "Didn't the Yellow Turban Army be suppressed by the court?"

"There are so many yellow scarves in the world!"

Liu Jin sighed.

He is a scholar from a poor family. He was fortunate to be admitted to Yingchuan Academy. With his talents and learning, he made many great scholars admire him. He got acquainted with the Yingchuan family, and he was able to be a filial and honest official. He lived at the bottom of the class for many years. Rejection, and even a little understanding of the suffering of the Yellow Turbans, not everyone yearns for the ambition of rebellion, but the current situation forces them to take such a road.

"My lord, with such expectations, we have to guard against Mu Shan!" Tan Songdao: "If he raises his troops to rebel, wouldn't we have lost the opportunity, it would be better to strike first..."

"Tan Changshi, Mu Shan hasn't rebelled yet, are you going to force him to rebel?" Zhang Zi said coldly.

He is the prefect of Nanyang, the highest official in Nanyang, and the first person in charge. If Mushan rebelled, it would be because of his ineffective governance. If the court pursued him, he would bear the brunt of it, so he was the person most afraid of Mushan's rebellion.

"But..." Tan Song frowned, his face gloomy.

"Tan Changshi, I know you hate Mushan, and I know you hate the Yellow Turban rebels, but we need to think about the millions of people in Nanyang. If there is a war, the flames of war in Nanyang will spread. How can the people Anju!"

Zhang Zi interrupted Tan Song, made a decision, and said, "Captain Huang, you must order Ji Sima to lead his troops back. You must ensure that all the troops under his command return to Wancheng. Go back immediately, appease the people in all counties, and beware of the rebellion of the Yellow Turban rebels. Also, Liu Juncheng, you immediately report to the court. The troubles of the earth and the mountains have been suppressed, and I have worked hard to suppress the thieves, and I especially ask the imperial court for their credit!"

If Mushan rebelled, he must be responsible. If Mushan does not rebel, he will enjoy peace. Therefore, he can only hope that Mushan has no intention of rebelling. Not only does he not dare to persecute Mushan, he also needs to be comforted. He didn't even know that Mushan got a big advantage in this battle. , but can only be forced to play please seal!

"promise!"

Huang Meng and Liu Jin nodded to accept the order, Tan Song couldn't support himself alone, so he could only recognize it by pinching his nose.

"Mushan, it's just Wuyin County, I can afford it, but I can't afford Nanyang County, so you better not force me!" Zhang Zi muttered to himself.

At the beginning, he tried his best to persuade General He Jin, and was even forced to borrow thousands of gold from the Liangzhou barbarians under the command of the General to bribe a few counselors around the General to take this position. He must not lose this position.

**************************
Zhongping five years, April, early.

On the outskirts of Wuyin City, outside Shili Pavilion.

The county magistrate Cai Tu, the county magistrate Meng Wu, and the thief Cao Zhaoping, together with more than a dozen county officials, have been waiting for a long time, and beside these officials, there are many big household heads in Wuyin City who are also waiting among them.

There are also quite a few members of the gentry here, and they have to wait, because they can't afford to provoke Mushan now.

Tread Tread! ! ! ! !
In the distance, amidst the sound of horseshoes, hundreds of cavalry charged forward. During the charge, billowing dust, like a ferocious beast opened its mouth, rushing towards them. Everyone couldn't help backing back again and again, unable to stand still.

These hundreds of cavalrymen stopped suddenly at a distance of less than 15 meters from them, their movements were consistent, and they were obviously skilled in riding.

"Subordinate Zhang Chuan won the victory in suppressing the bandits and returned with his troops. I also invite the county lord to review it!"

Wearing a human skin mask, Mu Shan jumped off his horse with a burly body like a mountain, and saluted Cai Tu.

"it is good!"

Cai Tu's previous depression had dissipated, and at this moment there was a look of excitement on his face.

He is still very satisfied with Mu Shan's attitude.

Because he felt that Mu Shan always regarded him as the county magistrate of Wuyin, rather than intending to separate Wuyin.

"I have prepared a celebration banquet for Zhang Xianwei, let's go into the city!" Cai Tu took Mu Shan's hand and strode forward, taking the lead into the city.

"The cavalry will follow me into the city, and the other soldiers will be stationed outside the city without disturbing the people. If they violate the military law, they will be executed!"

Mu Shan is well aware of what happened in the county, but he doesn't dislike Cai Tu's remedy at this moment. After all, he still needs to gain a foothold in the county, and there are some things that he can't resist.

"promise!"

The generals took the lead.

"Enter the city!"

Lei Gong followed closely with his cavalry and entered from the city gate.

Behind the cavalry, thousands of infantry camped on the spot under the leadership of a big man.

"Magistrate Cai, this is a late remedy!" Cheng Luo held the rein of the horse with one hand, his eyes were as cold as ice.

"It's no wonder the county lord, he was just slandered by the villain!"

Li Yan, as the chief bookkeeper, could have been exempted from the expedition, but Mushan appreciated Cai Tu's cooperation with him before, so he wanted Cai Tu to enlist him. He also joined the army in this battle. In the first actual battle, he has become more and more proficient in making plans. With the cooperation of Cheng Luo, Mushan's top counselor, he succeeded in accepting the surrender of thousands of bandits. Bad chess.

"Master Li, the relationship between you and us is the relationship between Paoze. We should trust you. However, the county magistrate Cai has already carried out the covenant by acting like this. Some relationships have broken, and they will eventually break!"

Cheng Luo shook his head and rode his horse forward, instead of returning to the city, he went directly to Jingping Village in the northwest direction.

"Hey!"

Li Yan sighed, a little helpless.

Cheng Luo was right. It was very difficult for them to establish a cooperative relationship, but the relationship broke down only in a split second. He didn't know if there was any grudge in Mu Shan's heart, but because of Cai Tu's decision, it almost made the elders of Jingping Village The young boy was destroyed, which made him never trust Cai Tu in the future.

The most important thing is that Mushan now has nearly 1000 soldiers and horses, not to mention more than 2000 elite county soldiers, more than [-] surrendered bandit soldiers, and bandit Cao soldiers and horses, even Jingping Village. How many soldiers and horses.

Even the prefect's mansion gave in.

If the prefect's mansion didn't give in, they would still have a bloody battle to fight in Tufu Mountain. In fact, they were already ready to turn against the prefect's mansion, but they didn't expect Zhang Zi to give in again.

Now that the prefect's mansion has given in, in Wuyin city, it is no longer Cai Tu or the nobles in the city who are talking, but Mushan.

　There are a lot of things these days, so the update is a bit weak. There will be another update in the evening. I should start to make up the update tomorrow. After reading it several times, the pace is still too slow. Next, I will start to speed up the pace!
