Chapter 403
The team leader came to Guan Hai and bowed to him on the horse's back: "Small, please see Captain Guan."
Guan Hai was in a good mood at the moment. He didn't expect that with his name, he could accommodate so many Yellow Turban thieves in such a short time. At this moment, seeing the team leader who saluted him, he waved his hand and said, "No need to be too polite." Then he asked, "Where is the Junhou?"
"When you go back to the lieutenant," he heard Guan Hai's question, and the team leader quickly replied respectfully: "Junhou is two miles away from here. We are searching for the fleeing Yellow Turban thieves. Suddenly, he heard a shout here. Junhou was worried that Military Advisor Xun was in danger, so he came to check it out with a small life."
"It's okay, the sounds you heard were all sent by this lieutenant to contain the defeated soldiers." Guan Hai said this, and suddenly thought that if it weren't for Cao Qiuping's help, Xun You would have almost had something wrong. He then said to the team with a stern face: "Since you are protecting Military Advisor Xun, why are there only a few people left by his side? You must know that a thief general has just attacked the Military Advisor. If Miss Cao hadn't helped him in time, you would probably have to see Military Advisor Xun's body when you go back later. However, even so, five or six brothers still died."
When he heard that Xun You almost had an accident, the team leader was immediately scared out of white-haired sweat. He was still hearing that because Cao Qiuping took action in time, Xun You was now safe and sound, and the stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground. However, he was eager to report to Junhou and did not dare to stay here for a long time. So he said a few words and took the people back to report to Junhou.
As the battlefield was about to end, the 20,000 army led by Zhao Yun also arrived near Caojiazhuang. Seeing that the village was usually burned by the Yellow Turban thieves, Zhao Yun ordered camp outside the village.
After the camp was established, Zhao Yun rewarded the merits in the big tent. The military marquis who protected Xun You led 5,000 cavalry to defeat 5,000 Yellow Turban thieves, killed 3,000 and captured 1,000. In addition, the hundreds of Yellow Turban thieves contained by Guan Hai, only a handful of escapes in the end.
After Zhao Yun rewarded the military marquis who made great contributions, he asked Xun You curiously: "Military advisor, are you all saying true? Miss Cao's martial arts are really so powerful?"
"That's right, it's true." Xun You, who witnessed Cao Qiuping's battle against Liu Shi and Ping Han, nodded and said, "These are all things I have seen with my own eyes. According to my opinion, Miss Cao's martial arts are far above Liu Shi. Unfortunately, she has no battlefield experience, otherwise she would not have fought for dozens of rounds before she decided to win or lose."
Zhao Yun glanced through the tent and found no sign of Cao Qiuping. He asked curiously: "Military advisor, I wonder where Miss Cao went?"
Hearing Zhao Yun's question, Xun You hurriedly looked at every corner of the tent. Seeing that Cao Qiuping was indeed not here, he said in an uncertain tone; "I heard that several cars of women were saved from the hands of the bandits. I think Miss Cao might have settled these people."
When Zhao Yun heard Xun You say this, he couldn't help but sigh to the sky, and then asked: "Military advisor, I wonder how many Yellow Turban thieves are there in Pinghan?"
Zhao Yun's question made Xun You hesitate for a while before answering: "I have interrogated many Yellow Turban thieves, but there are many different opinions. Some say 50,000 or 60,000, some say 70,000 or 80, and some even say 100,000 or more. As for how many, I can't figure it out."
Zhao Yun didn't find it strange at all to Xun You's answer. Liu Shi and Pinghan's soldiers were in the way, let alone ordinary Yellow Turban thieves, even the two Qu soldiers killed by Cao Qiuping were not clear. They may only know that there is an increase in personnel every day, and as for how many people are added, it is not what they care about.
Zhao Yun paused for a moment and then asked: "No matter whether this yellow turban is 50,000 or 60,000, or more than 100,000, we also need to wipe out them as soon as possible. We must not let them harm the village. The lieutenant!"
Guan Hai, who was standing aside, suddenly heard Zhao Yun call him, and hurriedly walked into the middle and replied loudly: "The last one is here!"
"I'll give you five thousand soldiers and horses. Go northeast to search for the whereabouts of the Yellow Turban thieves." Zhao Yun pulled out an arrow from the order box and said to Guan Hai: "Before I set off, my lord told me many times that the Yellow Turban thieves who were invaded by Qingzhou were, except for a few of them who were extremely vicious, the rest were ordinary people who were trapped. If they could surrender, they would surrender; for those who did everything they did to burn, kill, loot, and wipe them out without mercy."
"I will obey the order!" Guan Hai answered loudly and stepped forward to take the arrow from Zhao Yun's hand.
"General Zilong," Xun You asked tentatively after seeing Zhao Yun give orders to Guan Hai: "Now the storm of Yellow Turbans are surging everywhere. If we concentrate our troops to clear them, we may fall into a state of exhaustion; but if we divide our troops to fight, we may be defeated by them. I wonder if there is any good way for the general?"
After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he couldn't help but think in his heart: You are a military advisor, shouldn't you give advice on this kind of thing? But since the other party had already asked, he couldn't help but answer. After organizing the words in his mind, he spoke: "Military advisor has forgotten. Before we go to war, the lord specially sent Zhang Jiao's daughter, the Yellow Turban Saint Aunt Zhang Ning, to the army, and said that with her help, she would be better than a hundred thousand army."
Xun You naturally remembered what Zhao Yun said. However, he expressed doubts about Han Zhan's statement. He thought to himself: Even if Zhang Ning is the Yellow Turban Saint Aunt, how many of the Yellow Turban Saint Guard who has stood up in Qingzhou now will buy her account? Therefore, he hesitantly said: "General Zilong, how do you plan to use this Yellow Turban Saint Aunt?"
"Military advisor, Zhao has already thought about it on the way to come." After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he immediately said confidently: "Since the lord said that, there must be his reason. I plan to let Taishici bring his troops with him tomorrow, and Yu Yigen and Zhang Baiqi escort the Yellow Turban Saint Aunt to the camp of the Yellow Turban Thief who was defeated today to persuade him to surrender."
The team leader came to Guan Hai and bowed to him on the horse's back: "Small, please see Captain Guan."
Guan Hai was in a good mood at the moment. He didn't expect that with his name, he could accommodate so many Yellow Turban thieves in such a short time.
