Chapter 48

"Shuai Qu, let's go quickly! The official army has already entered the city."

Deng Dang, covered in blood, walked into the county with the support of several young men in yellow scarves, just in time to meet a tall and short man who came out with a knife and shouted loudly.

Seeing Deng Dang, who was seriously injured, the tall and short man's face changed suddenly: "Emissary Deng, what's going on outside?"

"Someone met that group of cavalry on the road, and five hundred young men were rushed away, and a certain one risked his life to rush out, and the yellow-turban young men who had just entered the city behind him rebelled."

"rebel?"

The tall and dwarf were a little dazed, how could the yellow scarf rioters rebel with Taiping and beg for work because they had nothing to eat?
Deng Dang pulled Gao Dwarf and said: "Commander Qu, this is not the time for careful investigation, it is right to kill him as soon as possible, otherwise he will be surrounded and killed by all the officers and soldiers, and it would be bad for the envoy to be ambushed by the officers and soldiers again without knowing what the situation is! "

"Yes Yes."

The flustered tall and dwarf didn't have time to think about it, so they rushed towards the north gate where there was no shout of killing under Deng Dang's persuasion. As soon as they left the city, they saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing with long guns.

"Qu Shuai and Deng Envoy go first, and a certain one comes and ends."

A burly man in yellow robes next to the tall dwarf shouted loudly, and gathered a dozen young and strong mixed with dozens of gray heads to block the approaching officer and army spearman.

The tall and dwarf looked back reluctantly before being dragged away by Deng Dang.

Zhang Da chopped the big man in yellow robe to death with a big knife in his hand, and then killed the young man in yellow turban and the head of Cangtou who rushed forward. He watched the tall and dwarf man and Deng Dang disappear into the darkness and frowned, thinking: No!Why did Han Yigong run away with the Yellow Turban Bandits?

"Brother Ahu, Han Yigong ran away with the Yellow Scarf? Could he have rebelled?"

Brother Ahu, Liu Bei is only a pavilion chief at this time, and he is still appointed by Zhuoling. Strictly speaking, he is still white.

Liu Bei also couldn't figure out why Han Dang didn't follow the script, but the most important thing at this time was to restore the order in Fangcheng and call the young and strong in Fanyang and Beixincheng counties.

In Fangcheng County, several well-known gentry families in Fangcheng, such as the Su, Wei, and Xu families, were invited by a young man wearing reed armor and holding a spear. Xu Ding, the patriarch of the Xu family, said anxiously: "Look at them. His attire doesn't look like an officer's army, who knows how powerful he is?"

The patriarch of the Su clan said relaxedly: "No matter who is powerful, we are all big clans in Fangcheng. The county magistrate was killed by the rebels. Do they dare to kill us?"

"I really dare not."

The patriarchs of the various clans heard the reputation and went to see a young man with a weak crown, long arms over the knees, big ears, and a good face, walking out of the inner hall of the county surrounded by several big men in full armor. Isn't this vision the one who is famous and prosperous in Zhuo County? ?

"Could it be Lucheng Liu Ahu?"

"Exactly."

Liu Bei sat on the seat of the county magistrate and sneered: "Did the patriarchs live comfortably under the rule of the Yellow Turban? Do you want to be a thief?"

Liu Bei's sternness did not frighten the patriarchs of the clans, and the patriarch of the Su clan was even more provocative: "Liu Ahu, you must know that this is Fangcheng, not Zhuocheng, and it is not a place where you can do whatever you want."

"That's right! This is Fang City. The mayor of Fang City has been killed by the rebels, and Fang City has also been slaughtered by the rebels. Is it any wonder?"

Following Liu Bei's words, Zhang Da and Liu Zhiran beside Liu Bei pulled out their knives and pointed at the patriarchs of the clans.

Xu Ding, who was in his thirties, hurriedly came out and said: "Xuande, don't be angry, don't be angry, if you have any orders, why not speak up?"

"Before tomorrow morning, gather the young and strong of all ethnic groups to follow me to Liangxiang to suppress the bandits."

"what?"

Xu Ding was frightened and stupid, and the head of the Wei clan even said: "If we don't have weapons in our hands, how can we follow the pavilion chief to fight the bandits?"

"Prepare your own strategy. Tomorrow morning, you all just need to gather young and strong people. Between suppressing the thief and following the thief, can you think about it before you act?"

Liu Bei's threatening words made the clan leaders tremble, Xu Ding looked at Su clan leader and said, "Su Bo, what should we do now?"

The chief of the Su clan walked out of the county with an angry snort, Xu Ding and the chiefs of the other clans hurriedly followed, the chief of the Su clan returned to his own courtyard and said to the chiefs of the various clans: "Liu Ahu is too deceitful."

"That's right! It's even harder to deal with than Envoy Deng."

"Why don't we go against each other! Liu Ahu only has more than a thousand people, and it's not like Deng Envoy who has tens of thousands?"

"No, no." Xu Ding shook his head like a rattle, the spears and bamboo arrows in the hands of the Liu clan could defeat even the Xianbei slaves, they were no match for these unarmed clansmen.

Seeing that all the patriarchs shook their heads, the chief of the Su clan said: "No, if we fight here, we will definitely be suppressed by Liu Ahu in the name of rebels. Why don't we go to Liangxiang with him tomorrow and fight under the city of Liangxiang? You can also help us, and you will still be our local snake in the future."

"Honor, Patriarch Su."

The patriarchs nodded one after another.

There was no response from Fan Yang and Beixincheng, and there was no news of sending several waves of messengers. Therefore, a large number of material reinforcements from An and Zhuocheng were already on their way, and Liu Bei could only take the assembled [-] clansmen. Bai Qing Zhuang rushed to Liangxiang.

At dawn, the tall and short boys rushed to the city of Liangxiang overnight with all the young men in the yellow scarves. The tall and short boys were taken to Deng Mao's side, but they didn't find that Deng Dang took the opportunity to disappear among the yellow scarves.

"Fangcheng has been lost?" Deng Mao's tall body was so powerful that he resisted the dizziness and asked: "Where is the messenger Deng Dang you mentioned?"

The tall and short man was taken aback by the question: "It's just outside, call him here."

"Huang Hua, you go."

"promise!"

Huang Hua went away at the sound, and Deng Mao saw the puzzled face of the tall and dwarf, and explained: "Deng Dang is a brother of my clan, and he is now in Runan."

Runan, when I saw that Deng Dang was a fake, the tall and dwarf's heart twitched, and he had been tricked.

"My lord, a certain incompetence caused Fangcheng to be lost, and I am willing to die to make atonement."

"Forget it! The officers and soldiers are so cunning, just remember the lesson."

Huang Hua walked in with big strides, and said in a low voice, "The man has disappeared."

There was a gloomy atmosphere among the few people, Deng Mao waved his big hand as if to shake off all the gloomy, and said: "There is no way out behind us, we can only take down Liangxiang with all our might. I have tens of thousands of people, so why not be afraid of a small conspiracy. Huang Hua , you continue to lead people to cut wood and build ladders, shorty, you lead people to attack the city, and you must conquer Liangxiang."

"promise!"

A new round of siege was carried out after dawn. Unlike the previous sparse attacks, a large number of women and children quickly attacked Liangxiang City under the leadership of the tall and dwarf.The dense rain of arrows made women and children quickly pile up under the city wall. The dense rain of arrows in the morning caused the Yellow Turban rioters to pay a heavy price. At the same time, it also almost exhausted the [-] arrows in Liangxiang. In the afternoon, the arrows only aimed at A person climbing a ladder.

The tall and dwarf attacked the top of the city several times, but Zhang Fei led his men to drive him down, and his arm was also pierced by Zhang Fei.

Without the arrows, Pang Xi and the others had no choice but to attack the ladders. Under Zhang Fei's brute force, more than half of the ladders were destroyed.
