“Brother Ye Cheng is going to fight with 10,000 refugees because he thinks I haven’t been happy enough lately, and wants to laugh at me to death, right?”
“Your Majesty, we should express our stance.” He snorted, "Praise him, issue a commendation edict, and then order him to quell the rebellion within a time limit."
When Ye Cheng left the capital with the 10,000 refugee army that had just been organized, An Qing's edict was also delivered to him.
"If I weren't me, this imperial edict would probably be a reminder."
An Ning sighed, "Maybe, Sister Huang really wants to give you a reminder, but she just misjudged your strength."
Ye Cheng smiled slightly, "Forget it, ignore him, let's go."
The reason why An Ning was not allowed to go before was because of the danger on the front line, but this time he took An Ning with him because things were different from the past. The day when he and An Qing would fall out completely was not far away.
If An Ning stays in the capital, I am afraid that if there is a slight disturbance, An Ning will be in danger.
So, Ye Cheng simply took An Ning with the army. He didn't know this unless he followed the army. Once he followed the army, Ye Cheng unexpectedly discovered that An Ning had outstanding leadership skills.
Along the way, An Ning had already arranged many things before Ye Cheng had time to give orders.
Ye Cheng, who usually had to worry about the military chores by himself when using the army, this time, he became a hands-off shopkeeper.
The soldiers and horses drove all the way to Wancheng, north of Fancheng, and Yecheng learned from the local guard that not only Xiangyang was occupied by the rebels.
Even Fancheng was captured by the rebels.
"What a powerful rebel? Can they actually defeat Fancheng?"
Ye Cheng looked at Wancheng's defender in surprise and sighed.
"Yes, the leader of the rebels on the Xiangyang front line is named Zhang Yu. This man is indeed a figure, the Duke of the country."
Shoujiang Dao.
"Interesting, the 10,000 new troops brought by me will stay in your Wancheng for training. Write a letter quickly to General Lu at Hulao Pass and ask him to bring 10,000 elite troops to assemble in Wancheng."
While speaking, Ye Cheng gave An Ning a look to reassure her that he had his own sense of proportion.
After meeting with Shou, Ye Cheng, An Ning and others came to the temporary residence prepared for them by Wancheng Shou.
Arrived at the place, after carefully confirming that no one was around, An Ning couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Ye Cheng."
"Are you really going to quell the chaos this time?"
Ye Cheng shook his head, "No, this time, I still focus on appeasement."
h "Then why are General Lu's troops transferred?"
h "Didn't I just say that? Meet the rebel leader for a while and try his abilities."
"On the battlefield, swords and guns are blind. Brother Ye Cheng, I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp this speed."
Ye Cheng smiled slightly, "What are you afraid of? Just give it a try. I want to see if Zhang Yu is qualified to be my subordinate." Three days later, Lu Bu's elite troops arrived, and Ye Cheng immediately led his troops to Fancheng to quell the rebellion.
However, as soon as his troops camped in Fancheng, countless cold arrows suddenly arrived from the Xiangjiang River.
Lü Bu, who was caught off guard, hurriedly ordered and mobilized troops to resist, but...
Thousands of people were still injured, and the reason for the injuries was that the rebels on the Xiangjiang River could not afford good feather arrows.
The next day, Ye Cheng rushed to the front of the army in person, ordered troops to be sent out at night, set fire to the returning city gate, and then the army swarmed in.
It's a pity...The fire on the walls of Fancheng shone like daylight that night, and there was no way to set fire to it.
In this way, Yecheng suffered its second consecutive defeat in just two days.
Even Lu Bu's anger was aroused, "This guy is so powerful. In just two days, he injured more than a thousand of my soldiers. When I capture this guy, I will cut him into thousands of pieces!"
"General Lu, calm down, don't forget what you did during this trip. What's the matter?"
Lu Bu glanced at Ye Cheng helplessly, "But brother, I can't be angry."
"After some time, this jade will be my brother who will live and die together, and we will advance and retreat together. How can you complain like this to your own family?"
Ye Cheng has said this, what else can Lu Bu say?
Then naturally I can only force myself to put out the fire first.
That night, Ye Cheng came to the north gate of Fancheng alone.
Just as the people in the city were about to fire arrows, Zhang Yu stopped them, "Zhang Yu, a common man, has seen the duke."
"Now that the duke is unjust and riots are widespread, why should the duke sacrifice his life for the duke?"
"How about you and I joining hands to overthrow the duke?"
> 城下，叶城重重的咳嗽了一声，「此时明日午后，在襄水边，你我二人不带任何护卫，来谈这件事，如何？」
「国公相邀，岂敢相拒？明日午后，襄水边，再会。」
次日，襄水边，一处凉亭之中。
Ye Cheng was dressed in a plain robe, holding a teacup in his left hand and a teapot in his right hand, pouring himself a cup of tea.
Then, he looked at Zhang Yu quietly in front of him, "My lord, when you meet with the enemy leader, you seem to be somewhat heroic in your calmness." "He who has a thunder in his chest and a face as flat as a lake can be worshiped by the general."
"The Duke is ridiculous. It's better for you and me to talk about business. What do you think of what I said last night?"
"You and I can't accomplish anything together."
Ye Cheng gave him a straightforward conclusion. Although An Qing was mediocre, the total number of armies in various places was two million.
There are more than ten loyal generals with an army of more than 100,000.
"It is difficult for a single spark to start a prairie fire, and it is more likely to be extinguished by heavy rain. The time has not come yet, so we cannot act rashly." Defeated."
"Yes, but... does the general know that there are 100,000 troops stationed in Wancheng? Those people are die-hards loyal to An Qing."
"These people. If the army goes south and goes straight to Fancheng, even if the general has a great plan, can he defeat 3,000 and 100,000? "
"Yesterday, your army fired a barrage of arrows at my army in Xiangshui, but no one was killed."
"It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, general."
Zhang Yu was silent for a moment and sighed. He knew very well that what Ye Cheng said was right, it was true.
Their people have a fighting spirit, but that's all they have. As for other weapons, they are out of stock in the arsenal. Three thousand people can't put together a set of armor.
Even Zhang Yu, the general who started the rebellion, was a commoner.
There are many old, young, women and children in Wancheng, Xiangyang. If the 100,000 troops really go south...
It will really be a huge boulder.
Firewood. "
"We can raise our troops together in half a month at most. When the general hears the news of the uprising in Yanzhou, he raises his troops to respond. Only when Wancheng's 100,000 troops are contained can you develop."
