    The sky finally slowly brightened, and the crazy and bloody atmosphere of Xuchang was rectified.

    What is left are only wreckage and horrific corpses that can be seen everywhere

    With the help of internal and external cooperation, Cao Cao unexpectedly raided Xuchang overnight and achieved a huge victory.

    The thief Zhang Mancheng led his remaining soldiers to retreat to Nanyang, like a bereaved dog.  After the Battle of Xuzhou, the Yellow Turban Army lost troops and generals, but Zhang Mancheng's troops remained intact.

    Later, Commander-in-Chief Zhang Niujiao planned to lead the entire army to Hebei, but Zhang Mancheng refused, and a conflict broke out between the two sides.  Therefore, he resolutely came to seek refuge with Bocai.  Bocai appreciated him very much and asked him to guard Xuchang.

    Unexpectedly, things are unpredictable. Before he could take control of Xuchang, he was inexplicably defeated by the officers and soldiers.

    When the army outside the city suddenly entered the city, Zhang Mancheng knew that something was wrong. He must have suppressed the Xuchang Yellow Turbans too much, causing the opponent to counterattack wildly.

    As a result, after a night of fierce fighting, Xuchang was lost

    "Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed heartily.

    "I think that Liu Dingfang is short-sighted. If he sincerely lends food to me, I will definitely share some of the credit with him now."

    "What my lord said is absolutely true. Who would have thought that we could capture Xuchang overnight?!" Xiahou Dun felt extremely happy.

    These past few days, let alone how frustrated I have been.  Especially Liu Dingfang, who was arrogant and made everyone lose face.

    "I really want to see what Liu Dingfang's expression would be like if he knew we had captured Xuchang." Xiahou Dun said, already thinking about various scenarios.

    "Report! Everything in Xuchang has been cleaned up." Cao Ren took a quick step and came to Cao Cao to report.

    "Very good!" Cao Cao smiled again. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

    However, the next second, Xia Houyuan walked in with a heavy face.

    "My lord, Liu Dingfang's camp is empty and his 8,000 troops are missing!"

    When Xiahou Dun heard the news, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the spear in his hand, and looked at each other with Cao Ren.

    "Is this serious?" Cao Cao stood up in surprise.

    "It's absolutely true!" Xia Houyuan affirmed.

    "This" Xiahou Dun said in astonishment with a look of shock on his face, "Could he have escaped?"

    Cao Cao paced back and forth in the hall, frowning and saying: "Although Liu Dingfang is arrogant, his military formations are rigorous and his soldiers are well-trained. How could he escape?"

    To be honest, Xiahou Dun didn't believe it either. However, it was unbelievable that 8,000 people just disappeared after saying they didn't want to see him.

    Seeing that the atmosphere was extremely dull, Cao Ren consoled him: "Xuchang has been captured by us. It's a great achievement. No matter where Liu Dingfang goes!"

    "What Zi Xiao said is absolutely true." Xia Houyuan agreed.

    However, Cao Cao always felt uncomfortable and wanted to slap Liu Ke in the face. At the critical moment, he disappeared.  Moreover, this person is cunning and must have an agenda!

    ¡°Did he anticipate tonight¡¯s action and go to intercept Zhang Mancheng?

    If this is the case, you can still think highly of him.

    No, Cao Cao suddenly thought of something and said sadly:

    "I'm not as good as Liu Dingfang! This thief will definitely go to Changshe!"

    "Everyone thought, good guy, he was tricked!"

    Changshe is the place for the decisive battle and the place where the imperial court focuses its attention.

    And they were actually left in Xuchang by Liu Ke to block the knife and contain the Yellow Turban Army inside!

    "Then what should we do?!" Xiahou Dun shouted unwillingly.

    What else can be done?

    Abandoned Xuchang and chased after him, maybe he could still get some soup!

    On the other side, Liu Ke, led by Xun Yu, Xun You and other gentry disciples, went straight to Changshe.

    Now, their troops have expanded to 20,000 people!

    The power of the aristocratic family is terrifying.

    ? Among them, the Xun family and the Chen family are the representatives, and all the major families have sent people more or less.

    The cool breeze in the early morning brought a slight chill to people's faces, but Liu Ke's heart was filled with heat.  This decisive battle was when he became famous.

    During this period, he observed the soldiers from aristocratic families. These people were loose and had little fighting ability. At best, they were better than the farmers of the Yellow Turban Army.

    "My lord, are you worried about the battle ahead?" Guo Jia saw Liu Ke's thoughts and asked.

    "To be honest, I'm afraid these people won't be able to fight and will become a burden." Liu Ke said bluntly.

    "What my lord said is absolutely true,"??Everyone is gathering firewood and the flames are high, and he has a plan!  "Guo Jia said mysteriously.

    It turned out that he planned to let the children of the aristocratic family command his own troops. If he retreated without military orders, he would be the leader.  In this way, the children of the aristocratic family will definitely drive their servants to fight bravely.

    Liu Ke nodded. Anyway, those people are very arrogant. If you command them personally, they may not listen to you.

    But Liu Ke had a headache on how to deal with the enemy.

    According to Xun Yu's information, Bo Cai was a man of great talent. Since he raised his army, he had won all the way until Changshe, where he was stopped by Huangfu Song.

    ??At first, the imperial court worshiped Huangfu Song as the left Zhonglang general and Zhu Jun as the right Zhonglang general. They led a total of 40,000 Sanhe knights from the five schools of the Northern Army to annihilate the Yingchuan Yellow Turban Army.

    As a result, Zhu Jun arrived at Yingchuan first and fought a fierce battle with the Yellow Turban Army's Bocai tribe. He was defeated by the Yellow Turban Army, which had high morale, and retreated, giving the Yellow Turban Army room to develop.

    Seeing that the situation was not right, Huangfu Song led his troops to garrison Changshe to hold on, thus saving a trace of the imperial court's vitality.

    Later, reinforcements from the imperial court continued, and the battle with Bocai's Yellow Turban Army was bloody. No one could do anything to anyone.

    It is not easy to find the weakness of the Yellow Turban Army.  The situation of the enemy army was different from that in Xuzhou. One hundred thousand people gathered together without dividing their troops.

    So Liu Ke had no idea what to do for a while.

    "Our army is vast and its whereabouts may have been leaked. My Lord, you might as well choose a camp to station yourself in and then look for weaknesses in the enemy's army." Guo Jia suggested.

    ??Also, now that Liu Ke has 20,000 troops, he has enough confidence to fight the Yellow Turban Army head-on, so there is no need to rush.

    In ancient times, wars were fought in such a way that both sides set up camp and then kept testing.  It is rare to kill the opponent in a surprise attack as soon as they meet. Liu Ke won the battle of Xuzhou, which was a bit inflated.

    "Just do what Fengxiao said!" Liu Ke agreed.

    Guo Jiagong cupped his hands and continued: "Our army will send an envoy to the Changshe to inform you."

    Liu Ke was silent. He thought about it for a long time, and finally said: "Who is the envoy?"

    We really can¡¯t leave this task to the Aristocratic Family, otherwise Liu Ke¡¯s identity will suddenly become their little brother!

    By then, with Liu Ke¡¯s temper, it will not look good on both sides.

    "Leave it to me." Mi Zhu recommended himself.

    "This matter will trouble Zizhong." Liu Kedao.

    Next, Guo Jia told Mi Zhu a few more words, just to get some benefits.  Liu Ke's current official position is just a county magistrate, which is not enough to recruit Yingchuan nobles, so he plans to let Mi Zhu run it.

    Soon, Liu Ke¡¯s army set up camp ten miles away from the Yellow Turban camp.  When Huangfu Song heard the news, he danced excitedly and wished he could rush out of the city to hold Liu Ke to sleep.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
