The sudden arrival of King Wu Tiande forced Cao Cao to divide his troops and hide in Dingling City. Huang Shao's defeated soldiers, who were still surviving, were of course overjoyed, but the reinforcements immediately withdrew. Huang Shao's army, or perhaps King Wu Tiande could not resist, Cao Cao's army was forced to retreat. They were shocked and disappointed, of course.

They also scolded that there is no reliable support army in the world. Finally, when they saw Cao Jun suddenly retreating northward, Huang Shao's army was inevitably confused and didn't know what was going on.

The Yellow Turban bandit team is not without talents. At least the young Yellow Turban general who led the army to protect Huang Shao in a deadly battle before returning to Dingling guessed the reason and suggested that Huang Shao send people to the north to scout. As a result, Tan Ma, who went out to the city for reconnaissance, was brought back not long after he left.

At the news of the fire in the north, Huang Shao's army finally understood the reason for Cao's army's retreat. He cheered like thunder once again. He was also grateful to King Wu Tiande, who he had never met before and helped him so generously. He was a good man in his bones.

After going back and forth from hell to heaven several times, King Wu Tiande's infantry brigade finally arrived outside Dingling City. Li Lang, the envoy from last time, was sent to inform the news that the general who came to lead the troops was a military advisor under King Wu Tiande.

Xiao Zhangliang, Lu Jing and Deputy Marshal Sun Tai invited Huang Shao to go out of the city to meet with the main force. Huang Shao, who had already suffered more than half the casualties, was of course overjoyed. He immediately ordered the city gates to be opened and he personally led his troops out of the city to meet Lu's military division.

Your Majesty, please wait. At this time, the young yellow scarf general who had rescued Huang Shao before and guessed that the Junzi Army was attacking Cao Jun's retreat jumped out again and pulled Huang Shao's sleeve to remind him: Your Majesty, please be careful. I wonder if your Majesty is paying attention to King Wu Tiande's team.

Although they are dressed in yellow turbans, they march and fight with strict rules and disciplines and unified actions. This is not an ordinary mob. Please act with caution and find out the details of this King Wu Tiande.

Uncle Zhi, King Wu came to rescue you. Why are you so suspicious? Huang Shao was a little unhappy and scolded: "You said King Wu's team is by no means an ordinary rabble. What do you mean? I have rejected your suggestions to rectify military discipline several times. What do you think of my team?"

It's a mob

The young yellow scarf general was speechless and had to shut up obediently. Huang Shao ignored him and left him in the city to defend the city. He led a group of deputy kings and two deputy marshals. He opened the east gate of Dingling and welcomed him out of the city to meet those who were already at the east gate.

Marshal Sun, Military Advisor Lu and his entourage were waiting in line outside to meet, leaving the young yellow scarf general shaking his head on the dilapidated city wall, sighing and cursing in his heart. The yellow shao boy will surely die without a burial place in the future.

The meeting between Huang Shao and Sun Guan was very pleasant. Not only did they talk about each other, but they also had similar body odor. The communication was naturally convenient and relaxed. But when they learned that the reason why King Wu Tiande did not show up was because he went to the north to contain Cao Jun's troops.

Huang Shao was even more excited and grateful. He quickly saluted Sun Guan and Lu Su and said thank you. Thank you Marshal Sun. Thank you so much, Marshal Sun. Thank you Lu Military Advisor Dingling. The whole Yellow Turban army depends on the two of them and King Wu is alive. I am very grateful.

King Huang, please don't be too happy. Sun Guan took the opportunity to threaten, "The Cao thieves are powerful, the soldiers are strong, and the horses are strong. Even if we, King Wu, go out in person, we probably won't be able to contain the Cao thieves for a long time. The Cao thieves may come back at any time."

Hadn't Cao's thief's food and baggage been burned by King Wu? Huang Shao, who had been killed by Cao's army, was shocked and asked.

Time was too hasty and failed to burn through at most half of Cao Cao's military supplies. Lu Su interrupted and said: If it goes as expected, after Cao Cao reorganizes his troops, he will definitely go south to attack King Huang's Dingling, and then our King Wu's.

The He Yi brothers, Gong Du, and Liu Pi from Runan in Chen Guojun were also in danger of escaping, and they would be Cao Cao's targets sooner or later.

Cao Cao wanted to wipe out all the Yellow Turban troops in Ruying and Ruying counties. Huang Shao asked in surprise.

Of course, Lu Su nodded and explained: The locust plague in Yanzhou is serious and the famine is serious. Cao Cao's army can only rely on human flesh to satisfy their hunger. In order to rob food to tide over the famine, Cao Cao will never let go of any Yellow Turban King who has food in his hands. So not only the Yellow King, you can't run away from us Wu.

The king cannot run away because Cao Cao must know that all the food in Chen Guojun has fallen into the hands of our King Wu.

What Lu Su said is the truth. Huang Shao is not stupid, so he will not understand that Cao Jun must attack soft persimmons when he is short of food. So Huang Shao's face suddenly changed. The other yellow scarf thieves next to him recalled the previous battle with Cao Jun.

The tragic scene at that time was unavoidable. Everyone was terrified. Lu Su watched his words and took the opportunity to say: King Huang has one more thing. I am very sorry. In view of the overwhelming strength of Cao's army, we, King Wu, have decided to retreat to Chen State to prevent Cao's army from taking advantage of the main force of our army to sneak out and attack our army's camp.

Grain Land Chen Guocheng

King Wu wanted to withdraw his troops. Huang Shao was completely panicked and asked quickly: "Why did King Wu want to withdraw his troops in a hurry? I just saw that King Wu's cavalry fought well. They killed many Cao thieves and soldiers burned Cao Cao."

Cao Cao was frightened by the thief's food and baggage. Why did he retreat in a hurry? Why didn't he stay in Dingling City and join hands with our army to defend against the enemy?

Speaking of this, Huang Shao quickly added that as for King Wu's grain and grass military supplies, please be assured that Lu Military Advisor and General Sun will take care of them all on me. I will ensure that King Wu's team is well fed and well-fed. I will repay King Wu heavily in the future if I defeat the Cao thieves.

The other Yellow Turban generals also had the same idea and began to plead with Lu Su and Sun Guan to lead their troops to stay and protect their lair.

Your Majesty, you are flattering. Frankly speaking, our army is not the opponent of Cao Jun. Lu Su told the truth and said: The reason why our King Wu was able to sneak attack Cao Jun's baggage train and succeed was entirely because we took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and succeeded by luck. We were facing the enemy and our army head-on.

Still unable to defeat Cao Cao, King Wu has decided to withdraw his army to Chen Guocheng as soon as possible and rely on a solid city to confront Cao Cao's army. This will give him some peace of mind.

Yes, Sun Guan agreed: King Huang, we are all the Yellow Turban Army. It is our duty to help you repel the enemy. But if our main force has been away from the Chen State for a long time, the Cao thieves will divide their troops to attack the Chen State, then our grain garrison will be in trouble.

So I'm sorry. We have to withdraw our troops by tomorrow morning at the latest.

No, no, no! Huang Shao was even more anxious and couldn't help blurting out: "Marshal Sun, what will we do if you leave?"

King Huang, this is also something our King Wu wants to ask you. Lu Su took the opportunity and asked: As the saying goes, good brothers work together to cut off gold. You and I are both Yellow Turban brothers. I wonder if King Huang is interested in joining forces with our army to fight against Cao Jun?

Of course I am willing. Huang Shao, who has lost most of his main force, shouted excitedly that as long as King Wu is willing to join forces with our army, I am willing to become brothers with different surnames and live and die together with King Wu.

Since King Huang is willing, I can speak frankly. Lu Su said frankly: Our King Wu has told us that if King Huang is willing to form an alliance with our army to fight against the enemy, then please ask King Huang to lead his troops and march eastward with our army to Chen Guocheng.

Join forces to fight against the enemy. The city of Chen State is strong, has sufficient food and grass, and is protected by canals and water. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The two armies of our country can stand firm and hold on to Chen State. We can hold on for a long time until Cao's army runs out of food or there is a change in the rear. Cao's army will inevitably retreat without a fight.

Speaking of this, Lu Su also added a generous sentence: Of course, after King Huang's team arrived in Chen Guocheng, our army will also be responsible for the food and grass. Now that the food and grass in one and five counties of Chen Guo have fallen into the hands of our army, it is enough for our army to fight with them.

Your army persisted for more than four months

This... Huang Shao is a little hesitant. Although Huang Shao is willing to join forces with King Wu's team to fight against the enemy, and he is very grateful to Lu Su and others for their kindness, Huang Shao is not worried, so he does not dare to agree casually.

King Huang, could it be that we will annex you? Sun Guan was a little unhappy and said: King Huang, you can go and find out which team Sun Tai and the Yellow Turban team of no less than ten groups have joined forces to annex. If King Huang's words just now, then treat us as ours.

never said

Marshal Sun misunderstood, I didn't mean that. Huang Shao quickly waved his hands and said with a bitter smile: "Commander Lu and Marshal Sun, don't misunderstand your righteousness. How could I, Bo Yuntian, make you do the annexation? I am here for another thing."

There is also some food, grass and baggage in Dingling City. If I take the team to Chen State, these things will fall into the hands of Cao Cao.

So that's it. Lu Su nodded and said lightly: "Why is it so difficult for Huang Dawang? The main force of our army can protect you here. Can you just bring these grains, grass and baggage to Chen Guo?"

Bringing all the grain, grass and baggage to Chen Guo, Huang Shao's face changed color, and he suddenly became suspicious. The yellow scarf generals next to him also looked at each other, and they all became suspicious of King Wu Tiande's intentions.

How is King Huang? Lu Su said again: If your army and our army gather the food and grass in Chenguo City, it will not only make Cao's army have no food, but also your army and our army will not have to worry about the shortage of food and grass. Wouldn't it be great to kill two birds with one stone?

After withdrawing the remaining food, grass and baggage, it is still Huang Dawang, and yours is all Yellow Turban friendly troops. We have not yet made a habit of attacking friendly troops.

Huang Shao still didn't speak. Sun Guan was a little unhappy again and said unhappily: Why is King Huang reluctant to share some grain and military supplies for us? If King Huang is really reluctant, forget it and let's go. Anyway, we are not short of food.

As he spoke, Sun Guan actually turned around and yelled: The bastards are packing up and preparing to withdraw. The Taishan bandit soldiers, the core of the team that Sun Guan brought from Langya, agreed one after another, got up, packed their luggage and weapons, and put on a posture of preparing to withdraw - only

When Sun Guan shouted the order to withdraw his troops, he immediately rushed up and killed Huang Shao and all his men.

Marshal Sun, wait a minute, Huang Shao got anxious again and quickly stopped him, and said with a sad face: Marshal Sun, Military Advisor Lu, it's not that I'm stingy, it's that I have too much food, grass and baggage, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to move it for a while.

If you can't move, you have to move. Lu Su pointed to the dilapidated Dingling City and said to Huang Shao: Didn't King Huang tell you that you should repair the city wall in peacetime? This wall can block Cao Jun's several rounds of attacks. I'm not afraid of you, my king.

I'm so worried about this city wall. Even if our team doesn't use ladders to hit cars, they can just use ladder ants to attach them and they can attack the city in one round.

Huang Shao looked back at his shabby old lair and at the moat that had been filled with corpses. He was even more hesitant in his heart. Lu Suze frowned again and said: "King Huang, if you think we are coveting your food and grass, then you are overly concerned and don't hide it."

You and we are afraid that if your food and supplies fall into the hands of Cao Cao, then we will have to fight. If King Huang is serious about us coveting your things, then you can keep them for Cao Cao to rob.

All the Yellow Turban generals were afraid of being killed by Cao's army. After hearing what Lu Su said was very reasonable, they all persuaded Huang Shao in Huang Shao's ears to accept Lu Su's suggestion. It would be better to wait until Cao's soldiers retreated and repay Wu Tiande with some money and food.

Huang Shao, who had all been robbed by Cao's army, finally made up his mind and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, Marshal Sun, Military Advisor Lu, I will lead the team to transfer the grain, grass and baggage to Chen Guocheng, and join hands with you to fight against the enemy, but we can't do it all the way."

Please protect our army's food transport team.

King Huang, please rest assured that we will do our best. Lu Su smiled and said, "If your army's food and grass fall into the hands of Cao Cao, it won't be your army's family that will be unlucky. We will also be unlucky."

Although there were some doubts about whether King Wu Tiande could keep his word, Huang Shao had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to Lu Su's request. He decided to take the defeated general with the remaining soldiers and transfer the food and grass baggage to Chen Guocheng. Because Huang Shao Fei rushed to Chu even if he did not

King Wu Tiande promised, but he didn't get angry and attack him. His remaining soldiers and defeated generals couldn't stop Cao Jun's siege. The grain, grass, gold and silk he finally snatched would still be completely snatched by Cao Jun, instead of leaving them in Dingling City to wait for death.

It is better to believe that the friendly forces are great and to repay King Wu Tiande with more blood and more food, grass, gold and silk in the future than to be swallowed clean by Cao Jun with all his skin and bones.

Having made up his mind and returned to Dingling City, Huang Shao immediately ordered the grain, gold and silk stockpiled in the city to be loaded into trucks and transported to the State of Chen for storage. The insightful Yellow Turban general was also speechless when he learned of Huang Shao's decision, because this Yellow Turban general

He also understood that even if Huang Shao did not make this risky decision, he could not stop Cao's army from returning. Even the infantry team of King Wu Tiande outside the city could break through Dingling in a short time, kill people and seize food. Instead of struggling in vain, it is better to gamble.

Betting that the friendly army could be a little more merciful and eat meat and drink soup, it would still leave some dregs for the Dingling Yellow Turban Army, so the Yellow Turban young general did not object anymore and just honestly followed the order to organize the soldiers and people to load the food into the trucks.

Fortunately, the team under King Huang of Dingling did not have much fighting, but they had enough manpower, especially the hungry refugees who helped out in thousands. They could do any job as long as they were given a bite to eat, so it was only one night in Dingling City.

All the food, gold and silk were loaded onto the truck and began to march eastward under the protection of Sun Guan's team, moving to the state of Chen in a mighty manner. The hungry refugees who were helping out also followed along, scrambling to help carry the goods on their backs, and bumped the horses on their backs just to exchange for them.

One bite to eat

Of course, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Dingling were transporting grain, grass and baggage. Such a huge movement could not be hidden from the eyes of Cao Jun's scouts. When the news was reported to Cao Cao, Cao Cao was furious and immediately led his troops out of camp and led his troops south to rob grain.

However, before Cao Jun went south for five miles, the Junzi Army dressed as the Yellow Turban Thief Nirvana emerged from behind a mountain like a ghost and blocked Cao Jun's path with a battle formation. When Cao Jun hurriedly formed a formation to prepare for battle, he had just killed Yu Jin Congdi yesterday.

Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, the commander of the Gentleman Army, once again rode out to fight in front of the formation.

Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian, who dares to fight me to the death, the little thief of Cao's army, who dares to come out and take my halberd?

Lu Bu and Lv Fengxian, who was brandishing a wooden square halberd that was obviously improvised and whose real name was Lu Cheng, yelled and cursed aggressively, inciting Cao's generals to fight. However, Cao's troops, which had already suffered two heavy losses, refused to be fooled this time.

In addition to the tense formation, there are also the cavalry and archery tactics of quickly pushing the long shield forward to prevent arrows and deploying strong crossbows to suppress the gentlemen's army. At the same time, Cao Jun's generals yelled at the shameless traitor behind the long shield. Don't think we will be fooled. Do you have the courage?

If you go to the place where there is a hidden arrow and fight for 300 rounds, I won’t call you Li Mancheng because I’m afraid of you.

Even the Fangtian painted halberd in his hand was made of wood. Lu Bu, of course, Lu Fengxian did not dare to fight Li Dian in a fair fight. He just continued to curse and provoke Cao's generals to fight. However, Cao's army had already suffered enough losses. Not only did he not be fooled, Lu Fengxian immediately came closer.

A powerful crossbow shot frightened Lu Fengxian so much that he turned around and ran away, crawling back to the main formation. Weeping and mournful, he went to Tao Ying and ordered the young master to be incompetent.

It's okay. I don't blame you. Tao Ying smiled and said: If the enemy is still fooled, then he won't call Cao Cao. You can return to the team.

Lu Fengxian returned to the team honestly. Tao Ying thought for a moment and checked that there were no flaws in the fake beard on his face. Then he patted his horse and went out into battle. He shouted loudly in front of the battle: Mr. Meng De, please come out and answer.

After a while, Mr. Cao, dressed in red robe, appeared under the flag gate and sneered loudly and said: "Wu Tiande, what advice does King Wu have?"

I don’t dare to think that I just want to make a deal with Meng Degong. Tao Ying smiled and said loudly: Meng Degong, why are you sending troops? I am not going against Chu, but I leave my words here. The grain, grass and military supplies in Dingling are already mine, Meng Degong.

It’s a piece of grain and it’s even worth five baht. Don’t even think about taking it away. So please Meng Degong, you’d better not think about the grain grain in Dingling. You should withdraw your troops and return to the camp as soon as possible, so as not to hurt the peace between the two families.

Boss Cao looked up to the sky and laughed, pointed his horsewhip at the Junzijun behind Tao Ying and said with a loud laugh: Annu, the head of Guizhou Province, wants to stop me from seizing Dingling's money and grain just because of your **100 cavalry. You are not afraid of speaking big words and flashing your tongue.

Are you talking nonsense? Meng Degong, you know better than anyone else. Tao Ying also laughed and said: I will fight you three times in two days. How dangerous is this team? Meng Degong, you are proficient in the art of war and are familiar with Taoist strategy. You shouldn't know it, right? Not bad, a head-on confrontation is close.

I'm no match for you in a physical fight, but will I give you such a chance? If you can't catch me and you can't beat me, what use will I have?

Boss Cao was dumbfounded and then laughed unconvinced and said: Yes, I can't catch you and I can't beat you, but I can catch up with your grain team and defeat your infantry. That's enough.
To be continued...
