Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 81 Yi Chi Beihai, Dongnae County Taishici

"Thiefs are hateful!" Kong Rong slammed his fist on the tower.

This kind of behavior of being humiliated face to face and asking about his wife and daughter is the most infuriating.

Du Wei Zongbao was even more angry, and asked for orders: "Mr. Kong, the last general asks for orders to leave the city and fight to the death with that Zhang Rao!"

Zong Bao received Kong Rong's kindness and was not angry with Zhang Rao's humiliation to Kong Rong. He would leave the city as soon as he got angry.

Gongcao Sun Shao quickly persuaded: "No! The bandits are so powerful that the best policy is to stick to the city."

More than [-] yellow scarves besieged the city, and Zhang Rao deliberately provoked him. At this time, he rushed out of the city, didn't he fall into Zhang Rao's trick?

Once Zongbao is defeated, the county will not be able to hold on.

But Zong Bao said stubbornly: "Sun Gongcao, I also know that the thieves are powerful. If they don't go out of the city and kill the generals to boost morale, how can they defend the city?"

Sun Shao glanced at the surrounding soldiers, almost fearful on their faces.

"Lieutenant Zongdu, if going out of the city is unfavorable, wouldn't it be a loss of morale for no reason?" Sun Shao insisted: "I think we should send Xiaoqi out of the city to ask for reinforcements in Pingyuan County."

Zong Bao retorted: "The thieves have surrounded the city of Juxian, how can we go to Pingyuan? Even if you ask for help, you must have the spirit to kill the thieves first! Only in this way can Xiaoqi break through the siege of the thieves and go to Pingyuan County for help. Soldiers."

Sun Shao and Zong Bao continued to argue, and Kong Rong's eyes became more and more serious.

After Zhang Rao gathered more than [-] people, Kong Rong had an unforgettable experience of Zheng Ping's assertion in the past.

"This old man's ineffectiveness in eradicating the thieves has only caused the people of Beihai to suffer. This is all the old man's crime!" Kong Rong lamented in his heart.

There are more than [-] people in [-] households in Beihai, and more than [-] people became yellow scarves.

Anyone who becomes Prime Minister of Beihai will lose face!

Kong Rong couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat when he thought that the more than [-] yellow scarves would not be pacified this year, and the spring plowing would be affected next year.

Spring plowing will be affected, and autumn harvest will naturally have less and less food.

Now that there is no food, how many scholars and civilians will join the Yellow Turbans next year?
The disaster of millions of yellow turbans is not a lie.

"Pass down the order from the Prime Minister, no one is allowed to go out of the city to fight!" Kong Rong remembered Zheng Ping's old instructions.

Zong Bao has more than enough to defend, but not enough to attack. It is the best strategy to build more defensive equipment and stick to the city.

Kong Rong believed that since Zheng Ping could foresee today's disaster, he must have a countermeasure.

Now as long as we defend the city and delay the time, the dangerous situation in Ju County will definitely turn around.

"I don't know when Donglai Taishici will be able to return." Kong Rong sighed secretly.

After being reminded by Zheng Ping, Kong Rong often sent people to Huang County to donate food, rice and clothes to Tai Shici's mother.

Kong Rong also promised Tai Shici's mother that if Tai Shici returns, not only the past crimes will be revoked, but Tai Shici will be reused.

But until today, Kong Rong has not received the news of Tai Shici's return to Donglai.

Zong Bao stomped his feet angrily when he saw Kong Rong's strict order to defend the city.

If eyes could kill, Zong Bao had already torn Zhang Rao's corpse into thousands of pieces!
Kong Rong appeased the soldiers one by one at the top of the city, and did not return to the mansion to rest until midnight.

"Father, take a sip of warm water first."

Kong Su, who also had haggard eyes, brought Kong Rong a bowl of warm water with a hoarse voice.

"A Su, don't worry, with a father around, bandits and soldiers can't break through the city." Seeing Kong Su's appearance, Kong Rong couldn't help but sigh inwardly, and spoke kind words of relief.

After all, Kong Su was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and had never seen a big scene of thieves besieging the city, so she was naturally a little frightened.

Frightened, and afraid to let Kong Rong worry, he could only hide and cry secretly to resolve the anxiety in his heart.

"Father, my daughter is fine." Kong Su insisted, not wanting Kong Rong to know that he just hid and cried.

Kong Rong rubbed his temples: "How is your mother's condition?"

Kong Su inhaled slightly, and tried to soften his tone: "My mother just suffered from a cold, and she will recover soon. Father, don't worry."

Kong Rong didn't think much about it, and got up and walked to the side room: "A Su, take care of your mother, because my father is tired today, go to rest first."

Looking at Kong Rong's tired body, tears appeared in Kong Su's eyes again.

Gritting his teeth, Kong Su took out a handkerchief.

There are two lines of characters embroidered on the handkerchief, one line is the word "Jin Yu", and the other line is Zheng Ping's gift before leaving, "Why are you knocking? The sachet is tied behind the elbow."

Seeing the embroidered characters on the handkerchief, Kong Su let out a long breath, and his eyes became a little firmer.

Donglai County, Huang County.

It is located on the edge of Qingzhou, near the sea.

Going north by boat, as long as you avoid the wind and waves, you can reach Liaodong.

Since the Yellow Turban Disaster in Qingzhou, many Qingzhou scholars and people took refuge in Liaodong by boat.

Especially after the pirate Guancheng gathered in Donglai County, more people fled to Liaodong!
But today, a different ship came to the ferry in Huang County.

The other boats were loaded with belongings, wives and children, and they wished to flee to Liaodong immediately.

But this ship came from Liaodong.

There is no extra property, only one person and one horse!
The war horse Xiongjun is an excellent war horse from Liaodong.

The warrior is tall and tall, with ape arms and a beard, and his arms seem to have great strength. He is Tai Shici who took refuge in Liaodong three years ago after planning to break the state seal.

"After three years, I finally came back!"

Looking at the familiar landscape, Tai Shici couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort.

Although Liaodong can take refuge, who would really like to stay in Liaodong to live in seclusion?
What's more, the loving mother at home is still there, and Tai Shici is even more concerned about it.

Jumping off the boat, Tai Shi Ci smoothed the horse's mane and got on the horse.

Once you arrive at your old place, it's like an arrow to return to your heart.

Although he had entrusted his neighbors to take care of him before he took refuge, recently, Qingzhou scholars have been fleeing to Liaodong, making Tai Shici even more worried about his loving mother at home.

Coupled with the agreement with Zheng Ping, Tai Shici declined Gongsun Du's solicitation and returned to Qingzhou alone.

With a galloping horse, a mixed iron gun in hand, and a hard bow and arrow hanging from his back, even the thieves along the way dare not stop him.

A majestic man of seven feet and seven inches, with a horse, iron spear, bow and arrow in his hand, just looking at it is enough to make people fearful, who would easily provoke him?
One mistake and you will die.

"Mother is here, the child is back!"

As soon as he got home, Tai Shici couldn't wait to call for his loving mother.

"Is it Ziyi?" Hearing a familiar voice, a kind-looking woman hurried out of the house. It was Mrs. Liu, Tai Shici's mother.

Seeing Tai Shici, Mrs. Liu froze on the spot, opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't speak.

"The child is not filial, and made the mother suffer!" Tai Shi Cijian stepped forward, knelt down in front of Mrs. Liu with tears in his eyes, and knelt with his head on the ground.

Mrs. Liu bent slightly, helped Tai Shici up, and tremblingly smoothed Tai Shici's hair, and kept saying, "Just come back! Just come back!"

I haven't seen each other for three years, and there is too much to say between mother and son.

Tai Shici knelt beside his loving mother and listened quietly.

After a long while, Mrs. Liu mentioned the first incident of the Yellow Turban Bandit Zhang Rao's siege of Ju County: "Ziyi, during your absence, Beihai Prime Minister Wen Jugong often sent people to bring food, rice and clothes."

"As the saying goes, if you receive the kindness of a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring. Now that Juxian County is besieged by yellow scarves, and Wen Jugong is in danger, Ziyi must go to rescue him."

"There is also Zheng Ping, the son of Duke Kangcheng of Beihai who made you famous before, and now he is the son-in-law of Duke Wen Ju. Since he is a brother's wife, he should be well protected."

"Don't forget your father's teaching."

Tai Shici shrugged: "Xianmou and I have the same loyalty and love as brothers. Xianmou's wife is in Ju County, how can I not go? Wen Jugong is kind to his mother. If you don't repay the kindness, won't the world think of me? Is Tai Shici a heartless and ruthless person?"

"It's just that there are a lot of thieves in Donglai now, and the boy is worried about his mother's safety."

"Besides, the baby just got home—"

Mrs. Liu reprimanded: "Ziyi, your benefactor and brother are in trouble. How can you hesitate to move forward because of family affairs? There are no eggs under the overturned nest. If even Wen Jugong is defeated by the Yellow Turban, who else can defeat this thing?" Lai's thief?"

"Go and save people quickly! Even if you encounter a thief unfortunately, mother still has hands and feet to escape."

"A man stands between heaven and earth, and he should carry a three-foot sword to achieve invincible merit. How can he be afraid of the head and the tail?"

"After three years in Liaodong, have you even forgotten your basic ambition and faith?"

Mrs. Liu comes from the Liu family in Donglai, and has connections with Liu Yao and Liu Dai. This family style education has been passed down for several generations.

If not, how could he teach Tai Shici such an all-round talent in both civil and military affairs.

You know, Tai Shici had already become a county official when he was 21 years old, and he was even ordered to go to Luoyang.

Not only that, but Tai Shici dared to plan to destroy the state chapter, and even took refuge in Liaodong calmly afterwards.

This has no family background, how dare Tai Shici destroy the memorial of the state official?
After being reprimanded by Mrs. Liu, Tai Shici did not dare to disobey, and replied in a concentrated voice: "Mother, don't get angry, my child will go to the drama city now!"

Tai Shici is also courageous and resolute. His mother has a life, so Tai Shici should go forward bravely.

Seeing Tai Shici who had just arrived home and left in a hurry, Mrs. Liu endured the pain of parting from mother and child, and sighed: "Ziyi, don't blame my mother for being cruel. If a man is not trustworthy and ignorant of kindness, how can he hold the sword in his hand?" , Ascension to the rank of Son of Heaven?"

"Your father passed away early, so he can no longer make a name for you. You can only get this fame yourself."

"What mother can do is to let you not worry about family affairs."

Tai Shici has a strong personality and a deep understanding of kindness, and he was influenced by Mrs. Liu's childhood teachings.

Da Da Da~
The horse gallops.

After traveling fast for two days and resting for half a day, Tai Shici came to the city of Ju.

I saw that the opera city was completely surrounded by yellow scarves, and the three floors inside and outside were all yellow scarves.

"Taking the old and the weak, women and children as the forerunner, this guy deserves to die!" Tai Shi Ci climbed up and looked out, his tone becoming more and more angry.

Once the two armies fight, how many old and weak women and children will die under the sword on the battlefield?
Thinking that if his mother was kidnapped by the yellow turban, she might be driven to be the vanguard of the attack like the old and weak women and children in the city, Tai Shici's anger became even worse.

"The thieves are so powerful that they can only enter the city at dusk."

Tai Shici carefully observed the yellow turbans outside the city, chose the southern gate where the yellow turbans were the weakest, and charged in at dusk when the thieves were exhausted.

The Yellow Turban thieves in the city were caught off guard, and they couldn't stop Tai Shici at all.

But in a short while, Tai Shici had rushed to the south gate.

"Donglai Tai Shici, by the order of my mother, is here to help Wen Jugong defeat the thief!"

"Please open the door quickly!"

The guards on the city tower were surprised to hear Tai Shici's call, so they were uncertain and did not dare to open the city gate easily.

"Report to Prime Minister Kong quickly."

Seeing that the gate of the city was not opened, Tai Shici knew that the guards on the tower were doubting his identity.

Seeing the yellow turban bandits rushing up, Tai Shici immediately raised his bow and set an arrow: "Donglai Tai Shici is here, whoever goes ten steps forward will die!"

Only the sound of bowstrings could be heard, Tai Shici's arrows were fired without fail, but in a short while, he had shot and killed seven yellow turban thieves, and all the yellow turban thieves were afraid and did not dare to move forward.

The guards at the top of the city were stunned by this superb archery.

When Kong Rong got the news, when he heard that Tai Shici was coming, he hurried from the east tower to the south tower.

Kong Rong couldn't help being shocked to see Tai Shici standing alone at the gate of the city, but the Yellow Turban Bandit didn't dare to move forward in fear.

He also heard from the general that Tai Shici shot and killed seven yellow scarf thieves with one arrow, and Kong Rong was even more excited.

"My old man, Kong Rong, Minister of Beihai, is Ziyi, the Grand Historian of Huang County, here?" Kong Rong asked loudly.

Seeing Kong Rong's arrival, Tai Shici raised his voice and responded, "Mr. Wen Ju, Tai Shici was ordered by his mother to rescue him. Please open the city quickly!"

After confirming Taishi Ci's identity, Kong Rong hurriedly ordered people to open the city gate to welcome Taishi Ci into the city.

Although the yellow turban thieves outside the city saw the gate open, no one dared to move forward.

Tai Shici's superb archery skills made the group of yellow scarf thieves terrified.

"Ziyi, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Kong Rong saw Tai Shici, and his anxiety became less in the past few days, and his tone became much lighter: "Before Xianmou left Jucheng, I asked the old man to send someone to give the Lingtang a gift. I even told the old man that if Ziyi comes, he can entrust the soldiers and horses in the city."

Tai Shici was taken aback: "Where is Xianmou now?"

I thought it was to repay Kong Rong's kindness, but I never thought it was Zheng Ping's kindness.

Kong Rong didn't hide anything, and said frankly: "Xianmou went to Pingyuan County to assist Liu Bei. The old man wanted to ask for reinforcements, but the bandits are too powerful, and it is difficult for the messenger to break through."

Tai Shici has been away from Qingzhou for three years, and he is still very unfamiliar with this Qingzhou matter, and he doesn't know who Fang Junjie Liu Bei is in Kong Rong's mouth.

"Mr. Wen Ju, the bandits are powerful now, and I am new here. Even if I lead the army, I may not be able to defeat the bandits."

"Since Xianmou has gone to Pingyuan County, I will go to Pingyuan County to ask for reinforcements. Duke Wen Ju can inform you in detail about the defense of Jucheng and the enemy's situation. This way, Xianmou can also plan ahead."

Tai Shici expressed his thoughts concisely and concisely.

Although brave, but after all newcomers, hastily commanding troops may destroy the original arrangement.

Kong Rong didn't answer immediately, but summoned Du Wei Zongbao and Gongcao Sun Shao to discuss.

After telling Tai Shici the defense situation of Beihai City and the enemy's situation in detail, Kong Rong brought meat and rice to Tai Shici for a full meal.

After sending Tai Shici to the gate of the city, Kong Rong saluted solemnly: "Ziyi, the safety of the city depends on you. I hope you will send back reinforcements as soon as possible!"
