Zhao Yun pointed his finger and said to Liu Xin, "Big brother, look, it looks like the team of third brothers is behind!"

"Zilong, are you right?" Liu Xin looked in the direction of Zhao Yun's fingers, vaguely seeing a team following the Yellow Turban, and sighed in his heart that Zhao Yun's eyesight was really good.

"You can't go wrong, it must be the third brother." Zhao Yun is confident in his eyesight.

"Okay, hurry up and send a signal!" Although Liu Xin didn't understand what was going on, he couldn't lose the opportunity. He understood the reason that the loss would never come. He made a decisive decision and gave the order to attack.

The Yellow Turban brigade fled here, not daring to approach Wancheng, circling around the city, and a beacon fire could be seen from a distance. During the journey, the earth suddenly shook, and not far away, there was a lot of smoke and dust, and a group of cavalry galloped in, taking the lead, holding a large axe, it was Xu Huang. Xu Huang cut left and right split the Yellow Turban team into two in an instant. The Yellow Turbans were all infantry. The team was scattered, and the cavalry passed through the Yellow Turban almost unimpeded. Xu Huangle turned his horse's head and waved his axe: "Kill!" The entire cavalry charged once again. Three times like this, the yellow turban was rushed to pieces. The infantry unit behind the cavalry has also been killed. At the same time, the gate of Wancheng city opened wide. Dian Wei armed with a double iron halberd and a team of men and horses rushed out and rushed to the middle section of the Yellow Turban team. Zhang Fei's men and horses had also caught up. . The yellow turban army corpses that had been killed in a single attack ran across the field, blood flowed into rivers, and countless people descended. The Yellow Turban leader Han Zhong was also split in half by Xu Huang with a single axe in the chaos army. Only the thief chief Sun Xia led thousands of remnants to Yingchuan and fled.

It turned out that Liu Xin made a plan with everyone before setting off. Liu Xin and Zhao Yun brought more than ten thousand recruits posing as yellow turbans and took the city of Wancheng by surprise attack. Liu Xin calculated that all the Yellow Turban bandits captured in the city were escorted out of the city and released. Most of these people were ordinary people, or were deceived or coerced, and joined the Yellow Turban as a last resort. After being released, most of them went home or went south. Join the fleeing crowd. But many of these people are yellow turban buddies. After being released, they naturally went to Han Zhong, Zhao Hong and other yellow turban leaders to report a letter. Han Zhong and others would definitely gather the people after receiving the letter, and then come to capture Wancheng.

As expected, Han Zhong waited for the report and gathered again, leading about 40,000 men and horses to take Wancheng aggressively. Liu Xin, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou had long planned to stop, relying on the city’s defense, and when the Yellow Turban was unable to attack for a long time, and when the people were too tired, they would send a signal to let Xu Huang lead a thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry, and suddenly attacked the Yellow Turban team from behind. Dian Wei, Zhao Yun rushed out of the city again and attacked twice, and the Yellow Turban would be chaotic. And Zhang Fei led five thousand elite soldiers from Changsha in ambush on the path that the Yellow Turban must pass. If they take advantage of the situation, the Nanyang Yellow Turban can be wiped out.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway through. Han Zhong and Zhao Hong led the men and horses halfway. They encountered an army of officers. They were caught off guard and hurried to fight. The officers and army were outnumbered and retreated south. Instead, they led the Yellow Turban army into Zhang Yun’s ambush. The previous scene happened.

"It seems that God really helped me." Liu Xin figured out the story and laughed. "Where did the officers and soldiers come from? Can you find out?"

"Brother, I have already asked people to gather the broken army of officials, and I will know when I ask." Zhang Fei is a rough and meticulous person, and has long arranged for someone to gather the army of defeated and disabled officers.

While talking, a soldier came to report that the group of defeated and disabled officers had been brought outside the city, and the leading officer had also been brought there.

"Oh, please come in soon." Liu Xin was still very grateful to this team of officers. He was able to win this time, and this official army also played a big role.

"The final commander of the Jingzhou Navy, Qin Jie, see the lord." A gray-headed general walked in. The helmet had fallen out of nowhere. The white cloth wrapped around his left arm was oozing blood stains, and he was obviously injured.

"What, you are the navy captain Qin Jie? Why did you come here? These sergeants you brought are all naval forces?" Liu Xin was stunned. He already knew that there was still a navy army in Jingzhou, about 10,000 people stationed there. In Jiangxia, the navy was given a copy of the order for the transfer of troops sent to the counties last time, and they wanted to draw 3,000 troops from the navy.

"Yes, the general heard that the lord wanted to regain Nanyang and raised troops to help him. He didn't want to miss the yellow turban and lie in ambush, which would damage the soldiers. Please forgive the lord." Qin Jie gave Liu Xin a sneak peek and quickly lowered his head. It turned out that Qin Jie, as the captain of the navy army, had the same salary as the prefect, but he only led the army, regardless of political affairs, so he always wanted to find a prefect. This time I heard that Wancheng was lost and the Yellow Turbans divided the troops and looted the counties, so I wanted to take the troops to attack Wancheng. If I could regain Wancheng, I could go to the court and ask myself to be Nanyang's prefect. Unexpectedly, Liu Xin took the first step to regain Wancheng. The navy led by Qin Jie happened to encounter the Yellow Turbans on the road going for revenge. Qin Jie only thought that he was in the ambush of the Yellow Turbans, and was panicked for a while and was defeated by the Yellow Turbans.

Liu Xin saw his eyes twinkling. He knew what he said was not the truth. He secretly said that when you wanted to tune you three thousand soldiers and horses, you didn't say a word. Now you will be so kind to help me regain Wancheng? Humph, it was clearly here to grab merit, and immediately shouted: "Come on, take down Qin Jie!"

The flying tiger soldiers on the left and right rushed over and pressed Qin Jie to the ground. Qin Jie shouted, "I will be wronged at last!"

Liu Xin sneered: "Qin Jie, you did not have my general order, so you arbitrarily mobilized the navy to Wancheng, so as to damage the soldiers and the generals, what is wrong."

Qin Jie struggled to stand up and said, "Master Liu, I am the captain of the Jingzhou navy army appointed by the court. I can eat two thousand stones. What qualifications do you have to arrest me?"

Liu Xin smiled without anger and said, "Wei Qin, I am Jingzhou Mu, personally appointed by the emperor. Among the six million soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou, which one is not in my control? Didn't you see the official document? Come on, call him Detain it and wait until Xiangyang to deal with it according to the law."

On the one hand, Liu Xin sent Zhao Yun and Xu Huang to lead troops to recover the counties in Nanyang. On the other hand, he sent a flying horse to report the situation in Wancheng to Xinye, Fancheng, and Xiangyang. On the other hand, Zhang Fei and Dianwei set up the defense of Wancheng, comforted the people in the city, and confiscated the property looted by the Yellow Turban. The Yellow Turban captives were not released again this time, but they were all concentrated outside the city to take care of them.

Early the next morning, a soldier came to report that Mr. Kuai Yue came from Xiangyang overnight. Liu Xin was taken aback, not knowing what had happened, and hurriedly greeted him.

When Kuai Yue saw Liu Xin, before he could speak, he said, "Congratulations to the lord for regaining Wancheng. His subordinates have come from Xiangyang Xingye, and dare to ask the lord to behead Qin Jie immediately!"

Liu Xin asked strangely: "Is it possible that Yidu has an enmity with Qin Jie?"

Kuai Yue said: "Lord, I have no grudges with Qin Jie. But this is a god-given opportunity and should not be missed. Yesterday received a notification from the lord that most of the damage to the Jingzhou navy was Qin Jie’s crime. Cut! After cutting Qin Jie, the lord can justify the reorganization of the navy, and the Gang navy can be completely controlled by the lord." This is the result of his discussion with Tian Feng, Jushou, and Kuailiang. We must slash Qin Jieliwei and frighten others. The prefects of the counties.

Liu Xin pondered and hesitated. After all, it was a living life.

Upon seeing this, Kuai Yue said again: "Please make a decisive action for the lord, it is not feasible for a woman to be kind!"

Liu Xin was cruel and gritted his teeth and said: "Come here! Push Qin Jie out of the gate, beheading to show the public!"

Liu Xin beheaded Qin Jie, feeling a little unbearable after all. He asked people to find a coffin in the city, killed Qin Jie's body, and sent a team of soldiers to his hometown of Yicheng, the southern county. A few days later, Qin Jie's hearse came to Yicheng, and when it passed a house by the road, the carriage refused to move forward, and the soldiers escorting it were all wondering. It happened that a villager from Qin Jie was passing by. Seeing this scene, he told a story. It turned out that when Qin Jie left Yicheng that year, after passing through here, he once said that the geomantic omen here is very good, and he can be his own cemetery in the future. When the soldiers heard this story, they did not dare to move forward, so they reported to Liu Xin. At this time, Liu Xin had already returned to Xiangyang, and was embarrassed when he received the report. He didn't believe in the existence of gods and ghosts in the world, but he came to this era in a daze, but he couldn't explain it clearly. He hesitated at the moment, so he sent someone to buy the house of that family with a lot of money and buried Qin Jiehou there.

The emperor Liu Hong was in a bad mood these days, and defeats came one after another from various places. First, the Beizhong Lang general Lu Zhi was defeated by Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, and then the right central Lang general Zhu Jun was defeated by Bo Cai in Yingchuan, and then the left Zhonglang general Huang Fu Song was besieged by Bo Cai in the Changshe area. The memorials from various places requesting the imperial court to send more elite soldiers came in abundance. The maids and eunuchs around Liu Hong were also cautious these days, walking on thin ice, all worried that they would irritate the emperor without paying attention.

On this day, Liu Hong received another memorial for help, and furious above the Golden Palace. Upon seeing this, the eunuch Zuo Feng stepped forward and said: "Lu Zhi has damaged the soldiers and replaced the generals, and I would like to ask you to surrender. The slave and maidservant recommend one person. The surname is Dong and the name is Zhuo. He is a native of Longxi. He is rough and conscientious. Zhi, you can break the yellow scarf ant thief.” It turned out that Zuo Feng had already accepted Dong Zhuo's bribe, and Lu Zhi and others were upright and did not make friends with Quan Huan, so they wanted to take the opportunity to frame him. Liu Hong was angry. Hearing Zuo Feng's words, he said without hesitation: "Declare that Lu Zhisuo will be handed over to Beijing for a crime, and Dong Zhuo will be named as a general in the middle, instead of Lu Zhi's commanding troops to conquer Zhang Jiao." Just because of Zuo Feng's words. , Lu Zhi lost his official position.

Suddenly, Zhang Rang ran all the way with the memorial in his hand, rushed into the hall, and shouted: "My lord, I am so happy! My lord, I am so happy!"

Although Liu Hong had an unusual belief in Zhang Rang's favor, at the moment when he was upset, seeing his appearance, he said angrily: "Zhang Rang, on top of the Golden Palace, yelling, how decent you are!"

Zhang Rang hurriedly fell to his knees, raised his hands above his head, presented the memorial in his hands, and said: "The emperor, the servant and maid just received the good news. I am overwhelmed for a while, please forgive me."
