Chapter 114

This is the first time I heard about the concept of "going south...", and after reading this letter, Liu Tao was stunned.

The letter said that according to the clear war report, Huangfu Song's troops and Zhu Jun's troops were confronting the Yellow Turban Thief Bo Cai's troops in Changshe. The situation was actually not so optimistic. Since the contact between Yingchuan County, the imperial army was almost defeated and retreated step by step.

This is related to the long-term lack of training for the Five Northern Army Colleges, and the excessive number of enemy troops is also a problem.

This confrontation will take at least two to three months before a turning point will occur. So if, the word "if" is used in the letter... If Liu Tao defeated and killed Zhang Bao in Xia Quyang, then you can consider going south to Changshe to support him.

"Brother, is there anything wrong?" Lu Yan couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw Liu Tao's serious expression.

Liu Tao shook his head. The Battle of Changshe was considered a battle of more and more during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song ruled the five Northern Army Clans, with a total of 40,000 people, and confronted the Yellow Turbans in Changshe. The confrontation seemed to last for more than two months, almost around midsummer, and it was not until the fire attack that the thieves were in chaos and launched a general attack while the chaos was in chaos.

The key is that Cao Cao, the cavalry commander who came to support, also encircled at this time, and finally ended with beheading tens of thousands of people. Some people also said that they captured more than 100,000 thieves, but due to insufficient food and grass, they could only kill them on the spot.

"When is the midsummer this year?" Liu Tao thought for a while and looked up at Lu Yan.

"About this, it's already midsummer..." Lu Yan was a little confused, but he still replied accordingly.

According to the calendar, the order of December is: spring, mid-spring, spring, mid-summer, mid-summer, summer, mid-summer, autumn, mid-summer, autumn, autumn, mid-summer, winter. Yesterday was the first day of May, in other words, it has entered mid-summer since yesterday.

"It's already midsummer..." Liu Tao was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head, "The weather in the Central Plains will get hotter and hotter, so it's irrational to go south... Besides, I hope that before capturing Quyang and capturing or killing Zhang Bao, I will no longer talk about going south!"

"Yes!" Everyone responded, going south is indeed not the most important thing at the moment, and there is no need to be so entangled.

So the discussion was discussed for a while on the jungle battle, and the military discussion ended like this, and everyone made arrangements. Even though Zhang Fei's troops did not participate in the battle, it was still necessary to cruise around the camp and beware of Zhang Bao's out of the city to fight.

Zhang Bao did not dare to go out of the city to fight easily, largely because of Zhang Fei's cavalry unit.

"Brother, there seems to be something about the topic just now, but my brother didn't say it out?" When there were only Liu Tao and Lu Yan in the military camp, the latter had to ask.

"It's still so keen..." Liu Tao smiled, "It's nothing. Not to mention our current goal, it's mainly Quyang, which is not suitable for distracting and considering other battlefields. I don't want everyone to become anxious because of this letter."

"This is indeed." Lu Yan nodded. The most taboo thing in the army is impatient.

"Also, if I remember correctly, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun would win during the midsummer period. Now it is midsummer. Even if I go south now, I may not be able to catch up. Since that's the case, why waste your brains thinking about it?" Liu Tao added.

"So that's it, no wonder my brother would ask when midsummer was." Lu Yan suddenly realized.

Lu Zhi did enter Julu County in May, and then forced the Yellow Turban Thief to Guangzong step by step. This "prophecy" is being realized step by step. This means that, as Liu Tao said, he is likely to see the future.

Yes, before actually witnessing all this, you will definitely have some doubts in your heart. It is really incredible to predict the future or something.

Now that I basically believe this, Liu Tao said that the battle of Changshe will soon determine the outcome, so it can basically be regarded as this. In this way, there is indeed no need to go south.

"Fight the Battle of Quyang well. Maybe in ten or twenty days, the battle report over there will be sent back." Liu Tao said casually, "It is also possible that he will come here in just a few days."

"Yes!" Lu Yan also corrected his mindset at this moment and began to devote himself to daily affairs.

The next day, the army gathered, with 500 spearmen, more than 300 swords and shields, and crossbows, leading two hundred. Including fifty personal guards, the number of people was around 1,100.

"Liu Ge, the more than 900 spearmen left in the army will be left to you to rule. If Zhang Bao goes to fight, you have to take responsibility." Liu Tao came to Liu Ge.

"Don't worry, Deran." Liu Ge nodded, but did not call him the chief. At this moment, he promised Liu Tao as his clan brother.

Unlike those clan brothers who came out of the fifth sermon, he was the illegitimate son of Liu Tao’s uncle Liu Zijing. The two brothers came from the same family and had a blood relationship closer than ordinary clan brothers.

"Xingming, you should also help." Liu Tao then looked at Shangguan Yu, who would stay in the army with three hundred archers this time. If Zhang Bao went to fight, he would always need some archers to restrain and defend.

"Here!" Compared to Liu Ge, Shangguan Yu was just a cousin, and his blood relationship was farther, so his answer was naturally more formal.

"It's not good for you to do this..." Liu Tao smiled, then turned around and looked at the soldiers behind him, "Set out!"

This time, he and Guan Yu were the only two top generals, and two hundred crossbow troops, who were handed over to the command of the two garrison commanders.

"Three Brother!" Before leaving, Zhang Fei shouted, "Protect Big Brother!"

"Well..." Guan Yu nodded. In fact, he was under great pressure this time. The one who could gather everyone in this army was Liu Tao. The identity of the Han clan relative was very important.

The most important thing is that he is a disciple of the immortal family and knows immortal skills. He always wins with less and has few casualties in his army. The fundamental reason is that he secretly uses immortal skills to support him.

However, it is undeniable that although he knows immortal magic and can even foresee the future, he is still a physical body. If he is shot by an arrow or cut by a knife in a place he has not noticed, he will still die!

So, this time he went on an expedition, in fact, while attacking the bandits, he also had to protect his brother's integrity.

"But, I don't understand..." On the way, Guan Yu came to Liu Tao. "Brother has a sky eye. He only needs to draw the terrain map. There is no need to go with the army to fight..."

"However, where will the thief ambush and where will the ambush? If I don't command them personally, how do you know? Besides, I actually have another purpose in this venture to fight." Liu Tao looked in the direction of Quyang.

"Could it be..." Guan Yu thought of a possibility.

"Chang Yun is very smart. If you read books well in the future, you may not be able to become a famous general." Liu Tao nodded.

"Then I have to study hard." Guan Yu smiled, but he really took it seriously in his heart.

Don’t be addicted to "Spring and Autumn"... Liu Tao couldn’t help but complain in his heart when he heard this.

When I came to the woods, I looked at the lush vegetation, lush and lush, with only a small path leading to the depths.
