"I've done what you said. Two heroes, it's time to come down. It's cold, so don't catch a cold." Zhang Niujiao looked at Ye Long and Pang Zhu and said with a smile.

"My body is so strong, how can I catch a cold." Pang Zhu said with a grin, and then looked at Ye Long. "Brother, you are weak, so let's go down."

Ye Long nodded. He just gave Zhang Niujiao a plan just to see how this person was doing. If he didn't take it, it meant that he was not the kind of person who has a keen eye to recognize heroes. He and Pang Zhu would jump off the city wall and leave.

people.

But the result is still good. At least Zhang Niujiao is not a straw bag and has some knowledge, otherwise he may be taken back by the Han Dynasty tomorrow after he has just captured Huai County, and his life may even be in danger.

But now, Ye Long still agrees with Zhang Niujiao's choice. He can stay with him for the time being, and then take the opportunity to develop his own power and start a new career.

He didn't want to be Zhang Niujiao's subordinate and end up serving the Yellow Turban Army in vain. Either he would control the Yellow Turban Army, or he would find an opportunity to start a new business.

"Two brave men, please honor your surname." Zhang Niujiao turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists and said, this is the most basic respect for Ye Long and Pang Zhu.

"Ye Yuan, Yizixing, this is my younger brother, Pang Zhu, Pang Baxi." Ye Long also returned the greeting.

"Zhi Xing, is it Zhi Xing from Sima Mansion in Wen County?" Zhang Niujiao was slightly surprised, looking at Ye Long and asked in surprise.

He had heard of Yizixing's deeds. After all, he lived in the two prefectures of Gunyu and Henan and often visited Hanoi County.

Regarding Zixing, the most talked-about thing is the matter between him and Zhang Chunhua.

"That's right." Ye Long said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

"Hey, Zixing, you are a distinguished guest of Sima Mansion. Do you know what we do? You appear in front of me. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you directly?" Zhang Niujiao looked at Ye Long and sneered.

"If you want to kill my eldest brother, you must have that kind of ability!" Before Ye Long could speak, Pang Zhu had already turned his long knife and stood in front of Ye Long.

The generals of the Yellow Turban Army behind Zhang Niujiao also took out their weapons one after another.

The two parties were at war with each other and were ready to fight if they disagreed.

"Zhang Qushuai, don't worry. I know the Yellow Turban Army. I support the Yellow Turban Army very much, so I'm here. Now Hanting is no longer the Hanting it used to be. The people don't have enough to eat, and there are even people who eat it."

The scene of people, the eunuchs control the government, and the general He Jun is in charge

He controls the army and covers the sky with one hand. There is Dong Zhuo in Liangzhou, who is eyeing Luoyang and will attack Luoyang whenever he has the opportunity. Then it will be even harder for the people to survive. So I also hate the current Han court." Ye Long said calmly,

He was not afraid that Zhang Niujiao would suddenly kill him.

Because he believed that his mouth could deceive others.

"Is this what the Sima clan means too?" Zhang Niujiao stared at Ye Long and said.

"What do you think? My younger brother is the legitimate son of the Pang family, a large family in the prefecture and county, and I am Sima Yi's sworn brother. What do you mean by the Sima family?" Ye Long said mysteriously. He did not clearly understand what the Sima family was.

I mean, I just talked about his relationship with Pang Zhu and Sima Yi.

As for what Zhang Niujiao thinks, that's what he thinks.

In fact, Ye Long knew what Sima Yi was thinking, which was that he wanted to start an uprising, but he was definitely not going to join the Yellow Turban Army.

There is no doubt that what Sima Yi means is what Sima Fang means.

Although Sima Yi fooled around with him in Wen County all day long, he was deeply respected by Sima Lang and trained Sima Yi as the next head of the Sima family.

And why did Pang Zhu join forces with Sima Yi and even consider him his eldest brother? It should be that Sima Fang and Pang Zhu's father had secretly reached some agreement.

Ye Long didn't want to find out. As long as the Sima family and the Pang family didn't harm him, everything would be fine between them.

But everyone outside knows that Zizixing, Sima Yi and Pang Zhu are sworn brothers, and the Sima and Pang families should not harm him.

Although there is no such sworn ceremony, people outside think so.

"Yizixing, are you interested in staying and working by my side? I will guarantee your prosperity and wealth, and when the Han Dynasty is overthrown, you will be granted the title of marquis and general!" Zhang Niujiao stared at Ye Long and said excitedly.

The Yellow Turban Army was just a group of underfed peasants who revolted. It harmed the interests of the Han court and the great families, so the Han court and the great families hated the Yellow Turban Army.

But now, if the Sima family of Wen County in Hanoi County and the Pang family of Zhou County can join them, they will be setting an example for all the big families!

And with the support of the big family, the Yellow Turban Army can better control the captured cities.

You can't kill all the people from these big families, right? That will only make all the people from the big families unite, and then unite with Hanting. The outcome of the Yellow Turban Army can be imagined.

He Zhang Niujiao is not a fool. He now very much needs the support of the big family, not only the people, but also the money of the big family.

"I'm very happy." Ye Long said with a smile. This is the effect he wants, allowing him to climb up step by step from the bottom. When he overthrows the Han court and unifies the three kingdoms in troubled times, it will probably be a long time before he can be prosperous.

Return to the Central Plains and settle accounts with Lu Xuening.

"Let me think about it, what position should I give you? Now there are thirty-six commanders, and you are very smart, but your body does not look very strong. The Han Dynasty has a military position in the army, what is it called counselor?

, why don't you just stay by my side and be my counselor?" Zhang Niujiao thought for a while and then said.

After the words fell, all the Qushuai behind Zhang Niujiao were all moved. They never expected that Zhang Niujiao would give Zixing such a big position when he came up. The counselors around Da Qushuai had the same status as Qushuai, or even surpassed him.

Qu is handsome.

They all felt that being a handsome man to Zixing was already too much.

You must know that each of them who can be the commander-in-chief of Qushuai is the most loyal person of General Tiangong, and they have all gone through many tests and tribulations before becoming the commander-in-chief of Qushuai on the day of the uprising.

But this Ye Zixing, why is it just based on that mouth and his identity?

These handsome men are all envious and jealous of Ye Long now.

"That's called a strategist." Ye Long said. He didn't like being a strategist next to Zhang Niujiao. After all, Zhang Niujiao is one of the commanders of Daqu. He doesn't have to go to the battlefield all the time. He follows him by his side.

, how can you win over the morale of the military if you can't go to the battlefield?

"That's right, that's right. I'm a military advisor. How about you become a military advisor? If you give me advice, you will definitely enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future." Zhang Niujiao nodded and looked at Ye Long with interest.

"Commander Da Qu, I am afraid that the position of military advisor must be appointed by General Tiangong." A Qu Commander behind Zhang Niujiao reminded him.

And this person was the one Ye Long initially thought was attacking Huai County at night, but he didn't know.

"Yes, Marshal Daqu, when appointing a military advisor, you must not be careless." Commander Zhang and Liang Zhongning also said at the same time.

"Why, can't I appoint a military advisor to be by my side even if I want to?" Zhang Niuniao looked at the three of them with a gloomy face.

These three people were the Qushuai of Gunzhou. They had always been disobedient to his orders, but now they were refuting his face in front of so many people, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Daqushuai's words are wrong. General Digong asked us to attack Huai County with Qushuai. Originally, after capturing Huaixian, we could just withdraw. Now Daqushuai still wants to defend Huaixian. This is a violation of the law.

The order of General Digong. Now it still needs to be

I am not convinced by appointing an unknown person as military advisor. I think it is better to kill these two people on the spot to give those big clans some power. They will be scared to death." Uncle Zhang looked at Daqu Shuai, neither humble nor overbearing.

said.

"Bullshit, if you kill the two of them, you will only cause those big clans to resist to the death and fight back. You must be an idiot." Zhang Niujiao glared at Uncle Zhang and scolded angrily.

"Hmph, even if Daqushuai is right, let's spare their lives for the time being, but my three brothers will not accompany Daqushuai to guard Huai County. Daqushuai, please take care of yourself and say goodbye." Bu Jileng

He snorted and said angrily, and after saying that, he actually turned around and left.

However, Uncle Zhang and Liang Zhongning, headed by Bu Ji, saw that Bu Ji had left. They also looked at Zhang Niujiao coldly and then left.

When the three Qu commanders leave, their subordinates will naturally follow their boss.

The Yellow Turban Army, which originally numbered more than 10,000, dropped sharply to 7,000 in an instant.

In the attack on Huai County, there were not many casualties. They only injured hundreds of people and killed more than a dozen people. There were no serious injuries. It can be said that it was a great victory.

And of these 7,000 people, there are still 5,000 people lying in ambush on the Nanshan Mountain outside Huai County.

Just now, Bo Cai went to order troops, and the people he took away were all his and Zhang Niujiao's people.

He has no right to mobilize Zhang Bo, Liang Zhongning and Bu Ji's Yellow Turban Army. Even if Zhang Niujiao speaks, the key is that their soldiers will not listen to him. In other words, Bu Ji and the others have already attacked Huai County and looted it.

Then give the order to evacuate directly.

Among the 10,000 Yellow Turban troops who attacked Huai County at night this time, 5,000 were Zhang Niujiao's own men. Qu Shuaibo only brought 2,000 men, and Bu Ji, Liang Zhongning and Zhang Bo each brought 1,000 men.

In the attack on Huai County, there were not many casualties. They only injured hundreds of people and killed more than a dozen people. There were no serious injuries. It can be said that it was a great victory.

Zhang Niujiao looked at the backs of the three people leaving without saying a word, nor did he have the slightest intention to stop them.

These three people belong to the local general Zhang Bao, so it is normal not to take him seriously.

Logically speaking, General Di Gong had already ordered that after the sneak attack on Huai County, he immediately retreated and retreated to Gunzhou. It was normal for the three of them to obey the order.

But Zhang Niujiao has his own ideas. If he can conquer Huai County, then Hanoi County will be in his pocket, and he will conquer it sooner or later.

He is the commander of Daqu, but he also knows that the Yellow Turban Army seems to be powerful now and has achieved a lot, but when the Han court reacts, the Yellow Turban Army can only be beaten passively.

The most important goal now is not to just attack but not defend. He just wants to capture a place and then defend it. When Hanting counterattacks, he will have the strength to deal with it.

What he wants is not a bunch of loose soldiers in the Yellow Turban Army, but soldiers who can actually fight.

This is why the Black Mountain Army in the Three Kingdoms was able to bring so much trouble to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, because they had a good leader, Zhang Niujiao and later Zhang Yan.

"I really made the military advisor laugh. Those three commanders are not my subordinates, and I have no right to order them." Zhang Niujiao looked at Ye Long and said awkwardly.

"It doesn't matter, Qu Shuai's choice is correct. Fight one shot for another. If you only fight but don't defend, you will only destroy yourself in the end. Qu Shuai's next step is to defend Huai County." Ye Long said with a smile.

He also knew a thing or two about what the Yellow Turban Army was like. Especially after Zhang Jiao's death, the Yellow Turban Army fell apart. The major commanders fought for power and were defeated one by one. This was one of the reasons for the subsequent defeat of the Yellow Turban Army.

Look at Zhang Yan. After taking control of the Black Mountain Army, he was able to bring huge troubles to the major princes of the Three Kingdoms. In the end, the Han court recognized him and sealed Zhang Yan, but he didn't remember it.

"How should I defend Huai County? Please ask the military advisor to teach me." Zhang Niujiao nodded with deep understanding.

"Qushuai, why don't we find a place to have a drink and chat?" Ye Long pondered for a moment and finally uttered a sentence.
