After beheading Sima Ju, the three most unstable generals in the Taiping Army, Sima Ju, Xu He and Zhang Baiqi, were left with only the latter two. If all three of them were unjust and gathered to rebel, Guo Jia might be in a doomed place. However, after Zhou Tai took over Badong County, he had 20,000 troops, which could just shock Fuling County, which was adjacent to Badong County to the south. Even if Zhang Baiqi recruited troops, at most, he would only have 20,000 troops.

Zhang Baiqi from Fuling County was enjoying the dance leisurely from his home yard. There was always a faint smile on his rough face. The yard was dancing lightly. Zhang Baiqi was enjoying himself and intoxicated.

The servant walked straight through the dancer's crowd in the courtyard, and even stepped on a dancer's skirt and took down a few people. The pleasing dance was instantly destroyed and the chaos in the field made Zhang Baiqi furious. He was about to scold the man for not having eyes when walking, and he didn't understand the rules.

How difficult is it to walk around? Do you have to walk through the middle of the courtyard sincerely want to destroy it?

But before he could curse, his servant said to him in a panic: "General, General, the general was defeated in Jingzhou, and after withdrawing his troops back to Badong County, he killed General Sima!"

His head seemed to explode. Zhang Baiqi was dizzy. He took two steps back in a hurry and held the stone table in the hospital to stabilize his mind. He waved his hand and signaled that the dancers would all retreat. After the yard was quiet, Zhang Baiqi asked his servants tremblingly: "My lord was defeated in Jingzhou? How many casualties? Why did he kill Sima Ju?"

The servant shook his head and said, "I don't know the details, but the person who came to report the news confirmed that the general had indeed killed Sima Ju."

The mouth was dry, and Zhang Baiqi was sweating coldly on his forehead, and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Is the person who reported the news Sima Ju's subordinate or the lord's person?"

The servant was stunned and said blankly: "I don't know."

"Go and find out the identity of the person who reported the letter! Is it whether Sima Ju's people escaped from Badong County to report the letter, or is the lord deliberately sending someone to report the letter!"

Zhang Baiqi sat on the stone bench, picked up the teacup and tried to moisten his throat, but his face turned grim and threw the teacup to the ground.

If Sima Jun came to report the news, then things might have been so bad that they could not protect themselves.

If Guo Jia's people come to report the message, the biggest possibility is to test it.

At this moment, life is hanging in a thread!

After the servant came back and said that the person who came to report the news was a man who came to Chengdu with Xu Shu, Zhang Baiqi breathed a little relieved, and then his face changed again, and he shouted to the servant with a ferocious expression: "Return all the gifts received in the mansion to me! That sister of Qin Wu, I won't marry you! Break the engagement! Send someone to the military camp to recruit generals to discuss matters!"

Soon, Zhang Baiqi of Fuling County drew a clear line with the gentry of Yizhou and released the 3,000 newly recruits who had just been recruited. Even though he lived a comfortable life in Fuling County, he did not indulge his subordinates in doing evil, but he was not as hard as he had been in charge of the army.

In the southeast of Chengdu, Jiangyang County, which is only separated from Chengdu by Jianwei County, Xu He was shocked and angry after receiving the news of Guo Jia's defeat in Jingzhou and Sima Ju's death.

"Ah! Guo Jia's son! Sima Ju and I went out together and made great contributions to your entry into Yizhou. No one can kill him!"

In the prefect's mansion in Jiangyang City, Xu He held up a long sword and slashed around. The house that was already well-organized was already in chaos.

Xu He's Yellow Turban soldiers who had been through life and death with him were waiting for the order outside the prefect's house. The young man in front suddenly asked another luxuriously dressed young man beside him: "Qin Wu, why did the general kill General Sima?"

Qin Wu, Qin Mi's cousin, and Qin Ye's second son.

Faced with the problem of Xu and his son, Qin Wu, a gentle and innocent Qin Wu said loudly: "The general made two mistakes. First, the general wanted to eliminate dissidents, but he did not see clearly who was loyal and who was a traitor. Sima and General Xu were both loyal to the general and made a contribution to the general's foundation today. It can be said that he sacrificed his life and was forever. The general ignored this merit and loyalty! Second, the general failed to attack Jingzhou and returned in a defeat. He must have a sense of anger in his heart, but he was reluctant to vent his anger on Xu Chu Dianwei and other generals, but he killed General Sima. This shows that the general had a deep prejudice against General Sima and General Xu, and even reached the point of killing the meritorious officials in vain!"

After saying this, Qin Wu bowed to the main hall of the prefect's office and said loudly: "General Xu, you should hand over the military power immediately and let Chengdu send generals to guard Jiangyang. In this way, perhaps General Xu, your family can still have a good end."

Xu He, who had already put on his armor, walked out of the lobby with a firm step. Xu He, with a harsh expression on his face, raised the sword in his hand and shouted at the soldiers in the courtyard: "Guo Jia is ungrateful! He forgot who allowed him to walk out of Taihang Mountain! He forgot who helped him capture Yizhou! The great wise mentor asked me Xu He to surrender to Guo Jia, hoping that Guo Jia could let my Taiping people live a peaceful life, but Sima Jia was killed by Guo Jia. Next, would it be me Xu He? The generals obeyed the orders and returned to the camp to order the troops, day and night, and followed me to enter Chengdu!"

The generals clasped their fists and took the order in a neat manner. Xu He walked out with his steps. When he passed by Qin Wu, he stopped, turned around and looked at Qin Wu, and said sternly: "Qin Wu! If I capture Chengdu, I will hold your Qin family as the new leader of Yizhou. Can the Qin family treat the Yellow Turban soldiers well?"

Qin Wu waved his hand in a hurry and said, "What kind of virtue is my Qin family? How can I be the master of Yizhou?"

A trace of contempt flashed in Xu He's eyes, but he continued to ask: "Then are you willing to help me?"

Now, Qin Wu calmed down and said calmly: "The wealthy families in Jiangyang County only follow the generals' heads. They can join forces with the general to attack the rebel Guo Jia. The general sent troops from Jiangyang. I will immediately send someone to inform the elders of the family that the Guanghan clan will definitely be willing to help the general with one arm. At that time, if the north and south attack, there will be less than 10,000 defenders in Chengdu, and the general will be able to achieve success. At that time, if you are defending Chengdu, there will definitely be rebels in various places to attack Guo Jia, and Guo Jia will definitely be defeated."

Xu He stared at Qin Wu for a while, staring at the sincere eyes, and could not see a trace of dodging. Xu He then withdrew his gaze and walked away.

Just behind Xu He, Qin Wu showed an intriguing smile.

Guanghan County, north of Chengdu, also soon received news that before and after Guo Jia's expedition to Jingzhou, the Qin family had been paying attention to the development of the situation. For the Qin family, they actually hoped that Guo Jia would take Jingzhou, because once Jingzhou was included in the territory of Guo Jia's power, it would inevitably confront the Guandong princes head-on. At that time, the Qin family could contact the gentry and wealthy families in various places to welcome foreign princes to replace Guo Jia, but they did not know Guo Jia's strategic intention of going to the expedition this time, just to conquer Xiangyang and Jiangxia, and did not intend to defend the two places. As long as the Guandong princes raise troops to attack, Guo Jia would definitely retreat to Yizhou. Instead, they used Jingzhou as a bait to provoke the Guandong princes to fight each other. However, Guo Jia returned with great consequences. The Qin family did not expect that Guo Jia could not take over a bossless Jingzhou, but Guo Jia did something that surprised them.

"Brother, my son sent a secret report that Guo Jia killed Sima Ju of Badong County on the way to withdraw his troops. Now Xu He of Jiangyang County is already on the way to send troops to Chengdu! Let's quickly gather the Guanghan clan and go south to Chengdu!"

Qin Cheng held the secret report from his son Qin Wu and ran towards his elder brother Qin Ye with excitement. Qin Ye closed his eyes and thought for a while, suddenly opened his eyes and said gloomyly: "Okay! Immediately lead the clan township to attack Chengdu with Xu He and the north and south! In addition, let someone incite Zhang Baiqi from Fuling County to chase and kill Guo Jia on the way back to Chengdu! You should also send someone to contact the clans of other counties quickly. We will kill Guo Jia in one fell swoop!"

The Guanghan clan began to take action, notifying all the wealthy families, contacting the village heroes, and jointly launching righteous soldiers, intending to overthrow Guo Jia in one fell swoop.

Qin Mi's father also responded to his eldest brother and second brother as soon as possible, but was stopped by Qin Mi.

"Father, please don't go! This is a way to die!"

Qin Mi's father didn't understand. Seeing Qin Mi's face of worry and earnestness, he asked puzzledly: "At this time, God gave a good opportunity, all the generals under Guo Jia rebelled. In addition, the clans in various places led by our Qin family have become less than 10,000 defenders. Can't they succeed?"

Holding his father's arm, he refused to let him go out to rebel. Qin Mi sincerely advised: "Father, if you can't capture Chengdu, everyone will definitely die! This is not as simple as confronting Guo Jia in Guanghan last time. This is rebellion. According to the law, it is necessary to control the three tribes! After conquering Chengdu, who will rule Yizhou? Will the generals under Guo Jia tolerate the Qin family? Well, even if my Qin family becomes the new leader of Yizhou, can they convince the public? The gentry and wealthy families in various places admire our Qin family, which is superficial. If they are related to interests, they will not have a trace of awe of the Qin family."

Seeing his father's face hesitation, Qin Mi struck while the iron was hot.

"Father, do you think again, in the north of Guanghan, Gan Ning led 30,000 Jinfan Army to Xiu Kuangjie Road. If he led his army to rescue Chengdu, can we stop it? Going north, will Zhang Liao and his 50,000 troops be watched as Chengdu fall? To take a step back, Guo Jia died, his generals were in power and watched Chengdu win or defeat, but so what? Sun Jian killed the governor of Jingzhou and several counties, Jingzhou fell into turmoil, and the clan thieves were in chaos. If Yizhou becomes a land of unparalleled land today, the rich families in various places will definitely take the opportunity to seek personal gain. At that time, the people of Yizhou were the first to suffer, and then, the gentry was the Yizhou gentry. In terms of private soldiers and slaves, the gentry was far from the local gentry. This rebellion, success or failure, the Qin family destroyed the clans at the worst, and at the least it was also a great damage to their vitality. Why do they do it?"

Qin Mi's father followed Qin Mi back to the house with his head down, closed the door of the mansion, and refused to see guests. No matter how other clans make trouble, Qin Mi refused to participate, and he had a reason in his heart that he didn't say it.

If he was not wrong, Guo Jia wanted to ask the Yizhou gentry to give him a reason to wave his butcher knife.
