Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 224
What happened in front of the governor's mansion was already spread among the aristocratic families in Xiapi. Everyone knew that Zang Ba had a personal grievance with Mi Zhu and Gao Cheng. Due to personal reasons, the Xuzhou army was defeated, and the whole Xuzhou would suffer.

Above the hall, wine and meat were placed on the wooden tables on both sides. The senior officials of the governor's mansion and the children of Xuzhou's aristocratic families were sitting on their knees behind the wooden tables.Tao Qian knelt and sat at the head, without any emotion on his face, as if he didn't know what happened in front of the door just now.

"Everyone..."

Tao Qian picked up the wine bottle and glanced at everyone in the hall. The aura of being in the top position for a long time exuded, and many children from aristocratic families with poor cultivation bases subconsciously lowered their heads. Only Gao Cheng, Zang Ba, and Zhang Zhao , Chen Lin, and Wang Lang and Zhao Yu who sat on the other side looked calm.He was not intimidated by the momentum.

But when Tao Qian spoke, everyone put down their wine bottles to show their respect.

"Your Majesty ordered me to come to Xuzhou in order to wipe out the Yellow Turban rebels and restore peace to Xuzhou. Now hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels are still raging in Pengcheng. If Pengcheng is not protected, the whole Xuzhou will be in chaos!"

"Presumably everyone already knows that the Qiang people in the northwest rebelled again, and our elite Han army was pinned down in Longyou, Liangzhou, unable to support them! Xuzhou's troops are weak and the situation is very critical. Fortunately, Zang Ba brought [-] soldiers, and Gao Cheng and Mi Zhu have recruited [-] soldiers and horses, barely able to fight against the rebels!"

"The [-] army has not been trained for a long time, and the defense is more than enough to attack, so we can only buy Xuzhou a little buffer time. All of you here are heroes of Xuzhou. At this time, please do your best. If anyone is willing to borrow After the rebellious soldiers are wiped out, the old man will be on his majesty's table and ask for credit for him!!"

Some of Xuzhou's aristocratic families gather in Xiapi City, and each family has more or less hundreds of military tribes. These family soldiers are all brave soldiers who can be counted as ten. As long as these soldiers can be gathered together, Tao Qian will have one more soldier in his hands. Trump card, he has more than [-]% confidence in dealing with the Yellow Turban Rebels.

Hearing this, many children of the aristocratic families in the hall couldn't help but look at each other. It turned out that Tao Qian had such an idea in hosting the banquet this time, but according to what he meant, he didn't mean to ask everyone to lend out all the family soldiers. Each family only needs to lend a part.Now that the Yellow Turban rebels are about to attack, as long as these rebels can be wiped out, it is not unacceptable to lend a part of the family army.

One of the older family members stood up, clasped his hands and asked, "The Yellow Turban rebels flooded into Xuzhou and caused harm to our hometown. It is only natural for us to contribute our efforts. However, I dare to ask Mr. Tao, do you have a plan to prevent the thieves?"

The meaning of this person is obvious, if Tao Qian has no means but only asks them to contribute money and people, then they will never lend out the family soldiers easily.In order to prevent the elite of the family from being wasted and consumed by the governor.

At this time Wang Lang laughed, got up and said: "Everyone, don't worry, General Zang Ba and Gao Xianwei already have an army of [-], both of them are superpowers, even if they can't win quickly against a group of mobs, they will definitely not be defeated! If you are willing to lend your family soldiers, you will be able to form an elite team, and when the two armies are at a stalemate, this elite team will suddenly appear and take the leader of the Yellow Turban rebellion! At that time, this group of mobs will naturally be defeated!"

Many children from aristocratic families subconsciously glanced at Zang Ba and Gao Cheng, and nodded secretly in their hearts. They are all elites taught since childhood. Maybe not everyone has the ability to govern and lead the army, but they all have the basic ability to judge .

There is nothing new in Wang Lang's words, the point is to assure everyone that these elite soldiers who have been borrowed will not attack easily until the critical moment, and will never be used as cannon fodder.

Hearing this, Gao Cheng secretly said: "These families are worried that Tao Qian will use the Yellow Turban to rebel and consume their soldiers. Without the protection of the soldiers, these families can't protect their family property in this troubled world! No wonder these The family is so cautious!"

After some discussions, these aristocratic families are willing to lend one-third of their family's trilogy. There are more than 200 people in a family, and there are more than 20 aristocratic families present. The total number of all family soldiers has reached [-].

These 5000 people, Tao Qian did not hand over to others, but acted as a direct force of the Governor's Mansion.Act as commander in person.

When Tao Qian and the major families achieved their goals, the banquet also came to an end.Before leaving, Tao Qian suddenly ordered Zang Ba and Gao Cheng to lead troops into Pengcheng Kingdom.One south and one north, jointly attack and suppress the Yellow Turban rebels.

……

The autumn wind is gradually rising, and the world is bleak.It was supposed to be the harvest season, but it was affected by the military riots. The rice in the fields had been wiped out by the Yellow Turbans and wandering refugees.On the vast land, tens of thousands of troops are like a torrent, surging forward.

On the command vehicle of the army, Gao Cheng and Zhang Zhao activated their powerful vision and looked in all directions, only to see the desolation of the world, the mountains and forests on both sides of the road are completely dyed, the wind blows, and the withered yellow leaves are blowing with the wind.

The army set off from Xiapi five days ago, crossed Surabaya and arrived at Pengcheng State.After arriving here, Gao Cheng and Zhang Zhao's expressions changed, and the village Wubao that the army passed by turned into ruins.Even a city near Surabaya turned into an empty city. Except for some old and weak people who couldn't walk, all the young, strong and women were all taken away by the yellow scarf rebels.

Today's hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels are constantly attacking the city and coercing the people, and it has grown to nearly a million.

"Yellow scarves, you are so inhumane!" Zhang Zhao's face was livid, his powerful spiritual power was constantly shaking, Pengcheng was his hometown.In just a few months, the originally quiet, peaceful and leisurely Pengcheng Kingdom has turned into ruins.The scene in front of him made Zhang Zhao unable to control his emotions.

Seeing his expression, Gao Cheng could only sigh secretly.It's not easy to comfort me.

Boom, the sound of horseshoes came, and Jiang Qin came riding a horse awkwardly. He lived on a boat all year round and hadn't ridden a horse much. He had a surprise training these days, and he could barely control the horse and march normally.

"General, Wu County is ahead. Tan Ma came to report that about [-] to [-] Yellow Turban rebels are attacking the city!" Jiang Qin came here to report to Gao Cheng after receiving the report from Tan Ma.

"Siege the city? Could it be that they didn't notice us? Oh, that's right, these thieves are just a bunch of mobs who don't know the art of war!"

When Zhang Zhao heard this, his heart moved slightly, and he quickly said, "Brother Ziming, this is a good opportunity to destroy the thieves! Why don't you send elite troops to march faster, and attack Wu County's defenders inside and outside, and the thieves will be defeated!"
