No, I fell into a trap!
Zhang Rao's heart sank and he shouted loudly,
"Quick, get out!"
But how could Cao Jun let them leave so easily?
I saw a few huge stones rolling down the cliff.
After crushing countless Yellow Turban soldiers to death, Zhang Rao and others' retreat was completely blocked!
It's over now!
Zhang Rao felt a chill rising from his back. At this moment, he felt extremely regretful. How could he fall for such a simple trap? !
"Qu Shuai, what should we do now?"
Xu He said nervously.
"Hold on!"
Zhang Rao tried to calm down and said in a deep voice,
"Even if you are ambushed, you must know that our troops have the advantage!"
However, as he finished speaking, he saw countless rockets falling from his head.
There seemed to be kerosene and other flammable substances hidden in haystacks on both sides of the road.
In the blink of an eye, the raging fire enveloped the Yellow Turban Army, and the miserable screams echoed in the valley!
The black smoke, mixed with the aroma of barbecue, made Cao Cao frown slightly while standing on the top of the cliff.
But looking at the Yellow Turbans who were fleeing in panic, he couldn't help but smile.
"Thanks to the dedication and filial piety, we were able to easily defeat these Yellow Turbans today."
However, Guo Jia, who was praised by him, just smiled lightly and was not too excited.
Although it was his suggestion to let Cao Cao deliberately expose his whereabouts in order to lure Zhang Rao, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, into being fooled.
But in the final analysis, today's victory is only based on guerrilla tactics.
He still hasn't completely defeated the master behind him!
…
The ambush lasted from day to night.
Cao Jun, who had ambushed in advance, dealt a heavy blow to the Yellow Turban Army.
I don’t know how many Yellow Turban soldiers died either by fire or by arrows!
Originally, Zhang Rao organized his troops and wanted to attack Cao Jun's camp and gain a way out.
However, Xiahou Dun and other generals were already waiting in the camp.
After Xia Houyuan killed Zhang Rao, the remaining Yellow Turban troops were completely defeated and chose to surrender.
Even the elite Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Rao were easily dealt with. The old, weak, sick and disabled who stayed in the camp naturally couldn't afford to make any trouble.
Cao Cao did not attack rashly, but waited for another half month.
When the Yellow Turban Army completely ran out of food and grass and became disheartened, he sent people to persuade them to surrender.
In the end, Cao Cao collected all the millions of Yellow Turban troops who were ravaging Yanzhou!
After the recruitment, he selected tens of thousands of them as Qingzhou soldiers according to historical practice, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled were all arranged to work in the fields.
…
After this battle, Cao Cao not only firmly secured his position as Zhou Mu, but also became more and more prestigious.
People of insight from all walks of life came here one after another.
Among them were smart and intelligent counselors such as Cheng Yu, Liu Ye, and Mao Jie, as well as generals such as Man Chong, Yu Jin, and Lu Qian who were good at conquering and fighting.
At this point, Cao Cao not only had strong soldiers and horses, but also many talents under his command.
Compared to before, the power has expanded many times!
…
In the courtyard.
Yang Ling waved to Zhao Yun,
"Come on, Zilong, today I will let you know how powerful I am, big brother."
"Brother, I'm coming!"
Zhao Yun looked solemn, raised a spear without a tip, and attacked Yang Ling!
Since defecting to Cao Cao, Yang Ling has never neglected his martial arts training.
First, he practiced with Dian Wei for a period of time. After Dian Wei became Cao Cao's personal bodyguard, he started practicing marksmanship with Zhao Yun.
After practicing for so long, Yang Ling was full of confidence, so he challenged Zhao Yun.
Seeing the menacing Zhao Yun, he did not dare to neglect, and rushed forward with the spear in his hand, intending to deflect the blow.
However, Zhao Yun easily swayed away from Yang Ling's weapon and put a gun directly to his throat.
"Brother, you lost!"
"Zilong, you young man is really a bit ungrateful. Come here to cheat and sneak attack on me, your elder brother! I advise you to take care of yourself!"
Yang Ling dropped his spear and pretended to be angry.
Zhao Yunqiang suppressed his smile, walked forward and comforted,
"Brother, you are unparalleled in terms of resourcefulness. There are few people in the world who can match you. But you are really not good at practicing martial arts."
"All right."
Yang Ling shrugged, knowing that Zhao Yun was telling the truth, so he didn't take it to heart.
Moreover, his original purpose of practicing martial arts was to have the ability to protect himself in troubled times.
At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly walked into the courtyard and saluted Yang Ling.
"I've met the master!"
Yang Ling glanced at him and smiled,
"It turns out to be Huang San. Why are you here today? Isn't the business in the store busy?"
After following Cao Cao to Changyi, Yang Ling naturally transferred the Moutai business to Changyi.
As the administrative seat of Yanzhou, Changyi has developed transportation and prosperous commerce, and the business of Maotai liquor is also becoming more and more prosperous.
Yang Ling selected the clever Huang San from among the servants rewarded by Cao Cao, and gave him full responsibility for the Maotai business.
Yang Ling, on the other hand, started to work as a display cabinet and was responsible for laziness.
"Reporting to the master, the business in the store is still very good."
Huang Sandao,
"I came here today because I have something else to tell the master."
"Oh? Something else?"
Yang Ling asked casually.
"Two people came to the store just now and want to discuss cooperation with us."
Huang San explained.
"No need to talk!"
Yang Ling waved her hand and refused without thinking.
joke.
My Moutai business is so booming, is it necessary to cooperate with outsiders?
"But they claim to be from the Mi family in Xuzhou."
Huang San quickly added.
Xuzhou Mi family?
Yang Ling thought, could it be Mi Zhu and Mi Fang?
If this is really the case, it is necessary for him to go see him!
He thought for a while and said,
"Wait for me, let's go there together!"
Yang Ling put on clean clothes and took Zhao Yun and Huang San straight to his shop in the city.
…
In the private room of the wine shop, two people were sitting opposite each other.
One of them had an honest face and was tasting Moutai wine.
But sitting opposite him was a young man.
I saw that his facial features were exquisite and his skin was fair. He was not as masculine as a man, but full of charm.
"Second brother, did you bring me to Changyi just to drink?"
The young man couldn't help but ask.
"Little sister, what do you know?"
The man called second brother smiled and said,
"Maotai Liquor is a fine wine, and it has become very popular in Yanzhou recently. Even here in Xuzhou, it has begun to spread."
"If we can cooperate with his boss and bring the Moutai wine business to Xuzhou, we will definitely make a lot of money!"
The young man was about to say something when he heard footsteps.
Immediately following, a handsome young man opened the curtain and walked in. It was Yang Ling.
Yang Ling looked at the two of them, and finally his eyes fell on the young man.
With such fair skin, peach blossom eyes, and no Adam's apple... Is this guy disguised as a man? !
