In Qiao County, Peiguo, the elders of the Xujiazhuang clan stopped Tianlu Camp who was about to go to Qingzhou. He accompanied nearly a thousand men and asked Zhang Xiuniang to give him troops.

"No one in Xuzhuang will ever forget my wife's rescue. The old man dare not delay my wife's march. However, there is a war in Xuzhou, so I hope my wife will keep these sons and daughters by her side, riding in front and behind the horse, to guard against the young ones, and also to deal with some miscellaneous things for my wife."

"Old man, hurry up and forgive me. Don't break my body." Zhang Xiu Niang supported the old man who was bowing.

There are nearly a thousand young men, they have prepared their own weapons and weapons, and they obviously have combat experience. There is no harm in taking a group of soldiers, but Tianlu Camp is not a military force, so Zhang Xiu Niang is somewhat hesitant about the arrangement of these young men in Xu Zhuang.

As soon as the Border Rebellion ended, before Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan mobilized their troops to build up their momentum, Cao Cao and Xuzhou started fighting again.

The south of Jizhou borders Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Yuan Shao wants to conquer Liaodong. If he wants to fight Gongsun Zan decisively, he must ensure that Qingzhou and Yanzhou have no future troubles.

Yuan Shao had maintained a good relationship with Cao Cao for many years, and he originally wanted to use Cao Cao to contain the military affairs in Qingzhou.

To put it bluntly, Liu Bei was always thrown into the bridgehead position by Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian, and Yuan Shao also somewhat regarded Cao Cao as a bridgehead.

Speaking of Cao Cao, how could Liu Bei be willing to be used as a spearman? But aside from the two being weak now, Cao Cao is based in Yanzhou and borders Qingzhou, so Xuzhou has to guard against it.

Yuan Shao repeatedly urged Cao Cao to jointly attack Qingzhou, but Xuzhou's containment of Yanzhou was also a matter of course.

In the direction of Luoyang, Liu Cang set his sights on Yangzhou, which greatly reduced the defensive attitude of the northern princes towards Liu Cang. Cao Cao's subordinates reused Yuzhou scholars, and as long as Liu Cang did not move, Yuzhou did not pose much of a threat to Yanzhou.

The chaotic wars among the princes in the late Han Dynasty were never a matter of fighting in one direction. The reason why they wanted to join forces vertically and horizontally was because they involved various disputes in all directions, both inside and outside the forces.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao each had their own thoughts and calculations.

As a result, Tao Qian became a stumbling block for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in every sense of the word, and Xuzhou became a force that Cao Cao must destroy.

As soon as the Taotie incident was settled and Yuan Shao funded it, Cao Cao again brought up Tao Qian's early military campaigns with Que Xuan, the so-called emperor, and criticized Tao Qian again on the grounds that Tao Qian had led an army to attack Rencheng County and Taishan County in the south of Yanzhou.

Qian Langzi was ambitious and raised troops to attack Tao Qian.

The war in Yanzhou and Xuzhou has resumed, but because Liu Cang has sent troops to wander around Xuzhou for many years, Cao Cao and Tao Qian have established relatively complete wounded medical camps, so there is no need for the war-torn Tianlu Camp here to join in the trouble.

In order to prevent Qingzhou from assisting Xuzhou and preventing Qingzhou from launching an attack on Yanzhou, Yuan Shao, while dealing with the constant harassment of black mountain bandits in the west of Jizhou, divided his troops to contain Qingzhou and strongly supported Cao Cao in attacking Xuzhou.

Gongsun Zan was also worried that Qing and Xu would be captured by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. In order to avoid being besieged, Gongsun Zan argued with Liu Yu while preparing to attack Jizhou.

The war in the north is about to ignite. Unlike Cao Cao and Tao Qian, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are not careful in their fights. They have already divided their troops into various places, and there is no way to take care of wounded soldiers and doctors.

This also led to Zhang Xiuniang personally leading the Tianlu Camp to go to the north, and in a true sense, she served as a neutral force in the war between the princes, with the responsibility of rescuing and treating wounded soldiers.

Zhang Xiuniang led her army to pass by Peiguo and encountered an epidemic in Qiao County. The outbreak of this disease would be no less harmful than war. Tianlu Camp took advantage of the situation to inspect and treat, and rescued dozens of people in Xuzhuang who were about to be burned, and Xuzhuang was born.

The matter of donating troops.

"There may be a recruitment of troops in Luoyang in the near future. If I want my sons to join the army, I can ask them to go to Luoyang."

"Tianlu camp cannot fight, and there are few military achievements. If you join the army in Luoyang, you can still find opportunities to earn merits and get a wife. However, being a concubine should not delay the future of the sons and gentlemen." Zhang Xiu Niang said softly while helping the old man up.

"Madam, you are serious. You are serious. They are all rude young people, and some of them have great futures." The clan elder shook his head.

"I don't dare to lie to you, madam. In recent years, the Ding family of Pei State has recruited more and more brave soldiers. We, Xu Zhuang, are also considered a wealthy family in Qiao County. Nowadays, there are constant disputes in various places. I am afraid that these descendants will have to join the army sooner or later."

"I, Xuzhuang, got grain early and received many favors from King Dongping. Now that I have met my wife, the young people in the village still have some courage. I should tie a grass ring to protect my wife." When the elder of the Xuzhuang clan said this, he summoned the brave soldiers.

Team leader.

only saw

The man who came was eight feet long, with a waist ten inches wide. He was holding a sword on his back. Although he was not wearing armor, he was still very powerful.

"Xu Chu, come here." The elder of the Xu Zhuang clan called Xu Chu to come forward.

"Xu Chu pays homage to the general." Xu Chu clasped his fists at Zhang Xiu Niang from afar. Zhang Xiu Niang did not offer any support, but Xu Chu stood up straight.

"Haha, this son has not liked writing since he was a child, but he is proficient in martial arts and likes to fight with horses and horses. In recent years, young Xu has often been involved in bandit troubles. With this son accompanying me, he can also help my wife to deal with some young people who have no eyesight."

Xu Chu, an old man from the Xu Zhuang tribe, spoke in a slightly derogatory way, but his face was full of pride.

【In view of the general environment,

Looking Xu Chu up and down, she felt that Xu Chu was full of vitality and blood, and Zhang Xiu Niang also sighed at what a warrior he was.

The most important thing is that the Xu Zhuang clan elder specifically mentioned the Ding clan of Pei State before, and Zhang Xiu Niang is also a clean sect when it comes to civil strife. Xu Zhuang is also considered a wealthy family in Qiao County. Obviously, Xu Zhuang and the Ding clan should be somewhat dirty.

"In this case, Xu Chu, let's lead the troops with the army first. When I return to Luo this time, I will recommend you to the Husband's Mansion." The elder of the Xuzhuang clan insisted on recommending it. Zhang Xiu Niang looked Xu Chu up and said to Xu Chu.

"General, Xu Chu has always admired what Tianlu Camp has done, and is willing to protect the army for Tianlu." Xu Chu hesitated slightly, looked at the clan elder, and then said to Zhang Xiu Niang.

"Tianlu Camp is composed of female soldiers. How can such a good man be restricted from this camp? Well, let's talk about it later." Zhang Xiu Niang said with a smile and looked at the Xuzhuang clan elder again.

"With so many young men and women accompanying the army, so that Xu Zhuang can no longer be disturbed, how about I leave behind two Tianlu war flags?" Zhang Xiu Niang asked the elder of the Xu Zhuang clan.

"Very good, very good. Thank you madam for your concern. Xu Chu, please protect madam from now on. If madam makes any mistakes, I will deal with you according to the clan rules." The old man of the Xuzhuang tribe was happy and scolded Xu Chu. Xu Chuchen said yes.

Sure enough, Xu Zhuang's repayment to Zhang Xiu Niang was one aspect, but there must be other factors that allowed Xu Chu to lead his people to join him.

Cao Cao wanted to take control of Yuzhou. At this time, the relationship between the Ding family of Pei State and Cao Cao was like honey mixed with oil. Regardless of whether Xu Zhuang and the Ding family were dirty or not, Zhang Xiu Niang left a battle flag for Xujiazhuang, which could be regarded as giving Xujiazhuang a backer.

Zhang Xiu Niang was from the common people, and she was not an unconventional woman. The two sides communicated harmoniously. Tianlu Camp organized its troops to move north, and Xu Chu led his troops to accompany him.

Crossing the Wenshui River and arriving at Boyang, Zhang Xiu Niang sent people to Luoyang to urgently mobilize thousands of armors. Although they were temporarily armed with tube armor, Xu Zhuang'erlang led by Xu Chu had all been converted into armored soldiers.

These days, running to the battlefield without armor is basically seeking death. Tianlu Camp arrived at the eastern foot of Mount Tai. Before reaching Pingchang, where soldiers were stationed on a deserted slope, they saw a battlefield of fighting in the distance.

Tianlu held the flag and avoided the chaos of the war. He watched the two armies confront each other from a distance. The battle between the two sides had begun. Yuan, Cao, Liu and Tian were in the army, and the battle flags of each faction were flying.

Seeing the Tianlu camp's chariots arrayed, both sides sent out orders to send scouts. Before they could get close to the army, they were intercepted by Xu Chu.

"The one who's coming is here!" Xu Chu drew his sword and immediately stopped the scout teams from both sides.

"Is this Lubei Tianlu coming? My general has ordered that Tianlu Camp can be stationed in our military camp!" The scouts from both sides glared at each other, and one side yelled at the scout riding on the horns of Cao's army.

"Yuan's army is brutal. In order to prevent Lubei Tianlu from being killed by female gangsters, Tian Shijun wants to ask Tianlu Camp to be stationed in Pingchang." Another team of scouts then shouted.

"Bah! The people of Qingzhou have been held hostage by Liaodong Gongsun for a long time. Tian Kai is a puppet who has harmed the people. How dare you say that he is cruel!" The captain of Cao's army scolded, seeing both sides drawing their swords in hostility.

"Tianlu camp is stationed to watch the battle, please leave me alone and retreat quickly." Xu Chu raised his sword and shouted, with more than a hundred cavalry behind him preparing for battle. The scouts from both sides looked at Xu Chu and the Tianlu chariot behind them, glared at each other, and rode back.

The two sides retreated, and Xu Chu rode his horse to Zhang Xiu Niang's side. Zhang Xiu Niang did not ride on the carriage, but straddled the horse. The cavalry of Tianlu Camp formed in front, and after confirming that there were no rioters, Zhang Xiu Niang gave orders to the army.

"Pack up the equipment, enter the battlefield after the battle, and give priority to the treatment of wounded Han soldiers." The lieutenant general conveyed the order, and the female soldiers on each tank began to organize medical supplies. The baggage convoy at the rear distributed rescue supplies. Zhang Xiuniang watched the battle situation in the distance.

"Zhongkang, do you think there is anything strange about that general?" After observing for a long time, Zhang Xiu Niang frowned.

He pointed his eyebrows at a charging general on the battlefield and asked Xu Chu.

"Um.

This man's sword skills are weird and his moves are stiff, but he always cuts the enemy with difficulty, which is really abnormal from a distance." Xu Chu replied after a moment.

"Madam, that person should be Liu Bei's sworn brothers Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang. The person facing him at this time should be Cao Cao's subordinate Xiahou Dun. They have actually led their degenerates into battle." Next to Zhang Xiu Niang, Lieutenant General Yu Xin identified.

I saw Guan Yu, who was rushing around in the rebel army, being blocked by a general. The general was surrounded by blood mist, which made Zhang Xiu Niang frown.
