Chapter 125

Besides small forces like Liu Bei that formed spontaneously, more warlords were preparing to get involved in the coming storm.

In Luoyang City, Commandant Cao Cao led a team of cavalry out of Hulao Pass, with Xiahou Dun serving as a deputy general.

The troops stretched for dozens of miles, with banners fluttering.

Huangfu Song was ordered to suppress the main force of the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army, while Cao Cao volunteered to suppress the Yellow Turbans as reinforcements.

At this time, Cao Cao was still a loyal subject of the Great Han and a passionate youth, wishing to turn the tide and restore the Han Dynasty.

Holding a heart of pure innocence, he went to Yuzhou to suppress the Yellow Turbans.

In Shouchun County, Assistant General Sun Jian temporarily recruited a batch of Jianghuai soldiers and, invited by Right Central General Zhu Jun, headed to Qingzhou to suppress the Yellow Turbans.

"Everyone, the military situation is urgent, recruit troops quickly, no mistakes allowed!"

Sun Jian summoned his four great retainers, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao, ordering them to select elite soldiers from Jianghuai and other places.

Bingzhou Dong Zhuo...

For a time, the heroes of the world were stirred, and the situation was surging.

………………

Jizhou.

This time the Yellow Turban 30 camp attacked Yecheng, not only Lu Zhi brought troops to reinforce from Luoyang.

The prefects of various commanderies would also send a portion of their troops to Yecheng.

Because of his relationship with the Changshan Prefect, Su Li was actually traveling to Yecheng with the Changshan Prefect.

A few days later, they entered Yecheng together.

At this time.

Many players who had joined the Great Han camp had already arrived in Yecheng.

They were all concentrated and incorporated into the Yecheng troop management.

However, because Su Li came with the Changshan Prefect, he was received by an official dressed as a scholar.

"Prefect Deng, I am Ju Shou, ordered by Northern Central General Lu to wait here for a long time."

Hmm, the Changshan Prefect's real name is Deng Song.

Of course!

This is not important. (Actually, it is very important; this is a character named after a reader)

What is important is that the scholar in front of him is actually Ju Shou!

Hearing the identity of the person who came, Su Li's eyes lit up.

Ju Shou can be said to be a famous scholar who ranks high in the Three Kingdoms world.

If he hadn't ended up with a useless lord, he might have been among the best.

At this moment, ordered by Northern Central General Lu Zhi, appearing here, perhaps there is some major matter to announce.

"Mr. Ju, no need to be so polite."

Changshan Prefect Deng Song waved his hand slightly, and seeing that Ju Shou had come with an intention, he said directly: "I wonder if General Lu has any instructions?"

"It is like this, Prefect Deng."

Ju Shou didn't dawdle and started narrating directly: "Now the Yellow Turbans are powerful, sweeping through Jizhou, and the entire Julu Commandery has fallen into the hands of the Yellow Turbans."

"Now the Yellow Turban leader Zhang Jiao has led a large army from Julu Commandery to attack Yecheng."

"However, General Lu thinks this is a good opportunity for a counterattack and is preparing to pull the firewood from under the cauldron for the Yellow Turbans."

"When the leader Zhang Jiao leads his troops to invade Yecheng on a large scale, he wants us to send an elite force familiar with the terrain to bypass the rear and surprise Julu Commandery."

"Recapture Julu Commandery and cut off the reinforcements for Zhang Jiao's troops; if there is an opportunity, we can also give the leader Zhang Jiao a pincer attack and defeat him in one fell swoop!"

"Good strategy!"

As soon as Ju Shou finished speaking, Su Li couldn't help but shout out.

From the perspective of the strategy alone, this is definitely a very good strategy to defeat the enemy.

After all, there is a long distance from Julu Commandery to Yecheng.

If one could really send an elite force familiar with the terrain to recapture Julu Commandery while Zhang Jiao is attacking Yecheng, Zhang Jiao would immediately fall into a state of being isolated and helpless.

At that time, the Yellow Turban camp would neither be able to fight nor retreat, and the initiative would be entirely in the hands of their Great Han camp.

Lu Zhi is worthy of being a great Confucian and an outstanding military strategist at the end of the Han Dynasty; not long after arriving in Yecheng, he actually came up with such a strategy.

Su Li couldn't help but admire him.

"This is...?"

Hearing Su Li speak, Ju Shou noticed Su Li's existence, and his brows furrowed, immediately showing doubt.

Because he saw Su Li's identity as an outlander.

In such a sensitive period, an outlander of unknown background following a prefect and hearing their plan is not a good thing.

"This is White Cloud Town Lord Su Li, who once defeated many Yellow Turban units in my Changshan Commandery and also killed several Yellow Turban warriors; he can be called a hero of the current era."

"We came to Yecheng together this time precisely to help General Lu."

Changshan Prefect Deng Song also saw that Ju Shou's expression was wrong, so he explained.

Hearing this, Ju Shou's furrowed brows relaxed, and he bowed to Su Li: "So you are Lord Su."

"Your subordinate has also heard that there is a unique lord named Su Li in Changshan Commandery. He has repeatedly quelled the Yellow Turbans and is exceptionally heroic. He is highly praised by the local people and is a hero of this age!"

This is the benefit of high reputation; the moment the name was mentioned, Ju Shou's attitude changed immediately.

"Mr. Ju, you flatter me. I merely happened to be there at the right time; how could I be called a hero of this age?"

Su Li also cupped his hands toward Ju Shou and said.

"Lord Su is too modest."

Ju Shou smiled, then suddenly changed the subject: "Since Lord Su has arrived, you can participate in this surprise attack mission and join us in reclaiming Julu Commandery. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, several small question marks popped up in Su Li's mind.

What was that?

Asking him to participate in a surprise attack to reclaim Julu Commandery?

What a joke.

He had come specifically for the Great Battle of Yecheng.

A campaign for Julu Commandery could not compare to the Great Battle of Yecheng, which concerned the fate of the entire Jizhou.

No, he would not go, no matter what.

Su Li was just about to open his mouth to refuse.

However, he heard Ju Shou continue: "If this surprise attack is successful, it will directly influence the battle at Yecheng."

"Therefore, General Lu has said that whoever earns the most military merit will be rewarded with a rare treasure containing the essence of the divine."

"I wonder if Lord Su is interested?"

Alright then!

Su Li really wanted to refuse.

But upon hearing that the reward was a rare treasure containing the essence of the divine, he was truly tempted.

There was no helping it; Linglong had previously mentioned the uniqueness of the essence of the divine.

Naturally, he wanted to take it and see what was so special about it.
