Huang Ting came back tonight.

Li Hong hurriedly welcomed him into the tent and asked anxiously: "Brother Xingzheng, how about it?"

Huang Ting's face looked ugly and couldn't speak for a long time.

"You're scolded back?"

Huang Ting shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Swearing must be scolded. If it weren't for the fact that I was dead and many brothers in the prisoner camp would have to be buried with them, they would have chopped me into meat sauce and fed them to the dog."

Li Hong seemed to be ready, and smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "What do they say?"

"There are four main leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in the city, Zhang Baiqi, Sun Qin, Zuo Yan, and one is Huang Long's subordinate Fang Biao. Sun Qin reacted the most fiercely, and he wanted to stay for help. The other three seemed to be hesitant, especially Fang Biao."

"Fang Biao?" Li Hong asked, "He is Huang Long's subordinate? Huang Long killed Zhang Niujiao. Does he not want to be in the Yellow Turban Army?"

"He used to be a garrison leader of the government army, and we said he was against him." Huang Ting said, "He has never said anything."

Li Hong nodded with a smile, "Brother Xingzheng, do you have any suggestions?"

Huang Ting thought for a while and said slowly: "Zhang Baiqi and I are friends of life and death. Many of his old subordinates are in the prison camp of Zhuocheng. He will not make things difficult for me no matter what. This time he was defeated by you. I feel that he is ashamed of Zhang Niujiao's trust and has always been unwilling to face Zhang Niujiao. If Fan Yang really has no way out, there is a high possibility of surrender. Zuo Yan always complains that he is not satisfied with his talent. Now he sees Zhang Niujiao escape from Youzhou alone, and he is probably not optimistic about the future of the Yellow Turban Army. It is normal to want to surrender and find a way out. Only Sun Qin, who is young and frivolous, is completely understandable."

"Does Brother Xingzheng have any suggestions?" Li Hong asked again, "You just say, don't beat around the bush. As long as they can surrender, I can agree to many conditions."

Huang Ting looked at Li Hong carefully. He couldn't see any signs of deceiving him. But he couldn't figure out why this cruel and bloodthirsty leopard was so kind, and it was too far from the legendary leopard.

"If the adults agree to let go of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were unwilling to surrender, Fan Yang might surrender immediately."

Li Hong smiled slightly without any surprise.

Huang Ting was secretly surprised. If Li Hong dared to do such a thing, this young lieutenant was really extraordinary, and his courage and mind were admirable.

He had this idea in advance and discussed it with Zhang Baiqi and Zuo Yan.

It is absolutely impossible for the Yellow Turban Army to break through. There is a big river in front and pursuers behind, and there is a way out. It is even more terrible to expect the Yellow Turban Army to come to rescue. There is no way out to stick to Fanyang without rescue. The existing food and grass in the city will support it for up to four months. What will happen after four months? Will you starve to death? Surrender is the only way to save the lives of 30,000 Yellow Turban soldiers. But if you surrender like this, a group of young and strong officers in the Yellow Turban Army will definitely not agree. This is the best condition. Let them go back to Changshan and continue to be their Yellow Turban Army.

"Brother Xingzheng is willing to enter the city again?" Li Hong said with a smile, "As long as the Yellow Turban soldiers stay, all the Yellow Turban officers can leave and leave immediately."

Huang Ting widened his eyes and looked at Li Hong in surprise.

"Also, the faster the better, so as not to have more dreams."

Li Hong actually couldn't hope that they would leave tomorrow.

Xian Yufu walked into the big tent.

Li Hong was lying on the ground looking at the map, the map of Zhongshan Country. This was brought to him by Xian Yufu from Jicheng.

"Brother Yu Xing, is Brother Xingzheng back?" Li Hong asked loudly without even raising his head.

"No." Xian Yufu asked in a low voice next to the case: "How can you explain to the governor in the future if you do this?"

Li Hong turned over and sat up, smiling as if Fan Yang had already obtained it, and was very happy.

"For this matter, I have to trouble Brother Yu Xing to go to Jicheng by himself." Li Hongduan gave Xian Yufu a bowl of water and said with a smile: "There are many benefits to letting the Yellow Turban Army officers go back. First of all, after they returned to the Yellow Turban Army, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army knew that the official army would no longer kill the prisoners like General Huangfu, and at least they knew that I, Li Hong, would not kill the prisoners. Then next time I went to war, the Yellow Turban Army soldiers would take the initiative to surrender, and they would not refuse to surrender until the last person fought. Now we don't even kill the Yellow Turban Army officers, and just put them back, and we won't kill ordinary soldiers. So many officers returned to the army, which is a real fact, a living example. The soldiers would believe it at a glance, which would directly shake the morale of the Yellow Turban Army."

"Secondly, it is the batch of grain in Fanyang City. Zhuo County has no grain this year, and winter has arrived. How can hundreds of thousands of refugees live? Jizhou's aid was gone last year, and their own refugee problems cannot be solved this year, let alone help us. So we have to get this batch of grain, which can save hundreds of thousands of people. We not only have to get it, but also get it as fast as possible. Once heavy snow falls, even if we have food, we don't have time to send it to Guangyang, Yuyang, and Youbeiping counties to help the victims. Therefore, we have to do everything possible to prompt the Yellow Turban Army in the city to surrender as soon as possible. As long as the conditions are acceptable, we agree."

"The other advantage is..."

"Don't say it, this second reason is more than enough." Xian Yufu immediately interrupted him and said sincerely admiringly: "I am not as much as you think about it. Whether it is war or this matter, I am not as thorough as you think about it. I am indeed inferior to you."

Li Hong deliberately joked: "Brother Yuxing, are you praising me or mocking me? Is it because I am in trouble next time, you won't save me?"

Xian Yufu shook his head helplessly, "I'm praising you, I praise you."

Li Hong laughed, "Brother Yuxing, what are you busy with? Why can't you see him?"

"I mean to ask him to avoid our business."

"Why? Is he having a problem?" Li Hong asked strangely.

"He is a country that is quite short of his life, and he will be dismissed sooner or later. It's better that he doesn't know about some things." Xian Yufu said lightly.

In the early morning of the next day, Huang Ting came back.

Everything was as Li Hong wished, and the Yellow Turban Army agreed to surrender. But Zhang Baiqi added a request, and he asked Li Hong to release another 3,000 soldiers.

When Li Hong saw Huang Ting stuttering and unable to speak, he only said one word: "Okay."

Not to mention that Li Hong was afraid of long nights and dreams, Zhang Baiqi was even more afraid of long nights and dreams. He and Zuo Yan tried their best to convince Sun Qin and other gangs of war factions, and summoned officers above the garrison commander to explain the matter overnight. When they could return to Changshan smoothly, many officers who tried to clamor for bloody battles to the end were silent.

Zhang Baiqi, Sun Qin and Fang Biao asked all the officers who were willing to go back. But unexpectedly, almost half of the officers chose to stay. Some of them were to follow their commanders to the death, some probably lost confidence in the Yellow Turban Army and were unwilling to go back, and some were afraid that the enemy would repent or plot to be killed halfway.

Zhang Baiqi immediately selected three thousand elite soldiers from the army and asked Sun Qin to take them back. The combat power of these three thousand people was completely comparable to that of ten thousand troops.

Fang Biao chose to stay. Zuo Yan also chose to stay. Zhang Baiqi also chose to stay.

Sun Qin almost knelt down and begged him, but Zhang Baiqi firmly chose to stay.

"If the leopard goes back on his word, I will take everyone to defend the city until I die in the battle, and I will never embarrass the Yellow Turban Army."

"I have no face to see the Grandmaster. If you go back like this, you have no face to see the Grandmaster. If you have to do this, you can take my head away."

Sun Qin took more than 3,000 people out of the city at noon that day. Zuo Yan and Huang Ting accompanied him all the way. Along the way, the cavalry of the Leopard Army disappeared like air, and there was no trace of it.

On the fourth day, the four gates of Fanyang City opened wide, the Yellow Turban soldiers left from the west gate, and the official army entered from the east gate. Fanyang successfully captured it.

Li Hong and Xian Yufu invited Zhang Baiqi, Zuo Yan, Fang Biao and Huang Ting in the big tent.

Zhang Baiqi finally saw the leopard Li Hong. He looked at him silently for a long time, almost unable to believe his eyes. A young man who looked less than 20 years old was actually the leopard that was famous in the northern border.

"Does Zhang Shuai think I'm too young?" Li Hong smiled, "Maybe my real age is older than I look. Last year, when I woke up in the Xianbei, I forgot everything in the past and have not recovered so I can't investigate it. Who is older than your Chu Shuai?"

Zhang Baiqi was infected by his enthusiasm and frankness, and his mood gradually relaxed.

He smiled and said, "Swallow is twenty-four years older than you. But he is not as good as you in war. Before leaving, he was ambushed by you in Fanxingting."

Li Hong smiled slightly and said, "Who can tell the things on the battlefield clearly? I will win the battle today, and maybe I will die tomorrow. Don't care about this matter, life and death, there is no certainty."

Zhang Baiqi and his friends were moved in their hearts, and they couldn't help but think about this young man. At a young age, they could see through life and death, which was indeed different from ordinary people.

"Sir, you just appeared in Xiaofangshan, why did you suddenly run away again? We can't figure it out. Was your main force in Xiaofangshan at that time?" Fang Biao asked.

Li Hong immediately pointed at him and said, "You are the one who acted as the pioneer in Xiaofangshan. Yes, all our main forces were ambushed at that time and were ready to ambush you. But your ambushed troops were discovered by our scouts, so we immediately escaped."

"I want to ask you one thing too. We set up three ambushes on the way from Naiguo to Dingxing Ferry, waiting for you to leave the city. Why did you cross the river in a blink of an eye? Do you know we were ambushing on the road?"

Fang Biao's face suddenly changed drastically, and he couldn't speak for a long time. Zhang Baiqi, Zuo Yan and Huang Ting were secretly shocked.

"I..." Fang Biao wanted to tell the truth, but he was afraid of being joked, so he blushed. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I was afraid of being ambushed, so he ran to the other side."

Li Hong was stunned for a moment. The simple answer.

Everyone was having a chat while eating, and they were all very scheming.

"You will first follow Lord Xianyu to Zhuocheng. When the war is over next spring, we will go north together. Shanggu County has a large area of ​​grassland and forest, which is a very beautiful place. In the future, we will have more days to get together."

Zhao Yun suddenly walked in, leaned over and leaned into Li Hong's ear and said a few words.
