Chapter 153: [Daoist Art: Heavenly Thunder Summoning], Su Xuan's secret planning (2 updates

~4 min read 620 words

"Also,"

At this time, Zhang Ning added: "Don't call me Holy Maiden anymore. There will be no more Holy Maiden from now on! Call me Miss! To avoid adding trouble to him."

"Yes! Miss."

Zhou Cang paused but still accepted.

What Miss said must be right.

Soon, they gathered the 10,000 Huang Jinlishi, opened the city gates, and marched out of the city in a mighty force, disappearing into the distance.

Taken away with them were hundreds of carts of priceless wealth.

All of it had been looted by the Huang Jin army from the homes of noble clans and magnates across Jizhou.

Letting Zhang Ning take these treasures away was also specifically requested by Su Xuan.

Afterward, the items would be taken to Deng County, Nanyang, and would all belong to Su Xuan.

He wouldn't be foolish enough to let Zhang Jiao and Zhang Ning leave these things in Guang Sect City.

Otherwise, even if he could occupy a portion, the rest would have to be shared with General Huangfu Song Song or handed over to the imperial court.

Of course, to avoid suspicion from the imperial court, he didn't leave nothing behind.

Su Xuan at least left a portion for the Son of Heaven.

He prepared to send it to the Son of Heaven after organizing it.

"Uproar..."

And upon receiving Zhou Cang's order, the remaining Huang Jin army soldiers inside the Dongcheng Gate saw this scene and were in an uproar.

Then, they began to fall into chaos.

Some fled, while others wanted to continue gathering troops to resist.

There were also people in groups of three or five running into the city, attempting to take advantage of the chaos to loot, rob, and burn.

"Kill!"

During the time they were delayed, Huang Zhong had already led 2,000 Black Armor Army soldiers to kill their way there.

For a time, those Yellow Turban rebels who were looting, robbing, and burning were the first to suffer, enduring the most violent strikes from the Black Armor Army.

Half an hour later, with the addition of more government troops, the chaos in the Dongcheng was quickly suppressed by force.

Thousands of Huang Jin rebels were killed, and even more, tens of thousands, were captured;

Even more had already fled from the city.

The fighting in the city continued until the next morning before it completely ended.

In the end, more than 30,000 Huang Jin army soldiers were killed, and three or four hundred thousand surrendered.

It sounded very terrifying and absurd, but at least ninety percent of these people were ordinary commoners who had been coerced.

They couldn't even be counted as soldiers.

Su Xuan directly sent people to screen them.

He gave a small amount of grain to those ordinary Huang Jin soldiers who had not committed evil and dismissed them, telling them to return to their respective hometowns.

He did not wait for General Huangfu Song Song to come over and handle them.

Because Su Xuan was worried that this guy would directly bury them alive.

General Huangfu Song Song already had a prior record of this when he was at Changshe.

Of course, at that time, there was no lack of reasons such as the army lacking provisions and being unable to settle so many surrendered troops.

Also on this day, Su Xuan received the news that General Huangfu Song Song had broken through Guangping City and killed Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao.

"This is truly... sigh-inducing!"

After hearing Jia San's report, Su Xuan recalled the matter of fortune that Zhang Jiao had mentioned three times in his letter.

"I didn't expect that once Zhang Jiao died, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao would really die so easily!"
