Chapter 17 Li Gang's Death
County Magistrate Li Gang was extremely shocked.

He could not figure out how the Yellow Turban soldiers broke through the city defenses and surrounded the county government office.

But the situation is extremely urgent now, and it is not the time to consider these things.

Li Gang put on armor and took a gun, and led the county government runners and servants to prepare to fight the Yellow Turban Army.

I just arrived at the battlefield and I can’t see clearly yet.

Li Gang heard the sharp sound of arrows breaking through the wind.

"Shhhhhhhhhh..."

In an instant, a rain of arrows flew towards Li Gang and others.

It was now approaching evening, the sky was dim, and Li Gang and his group had just appeared.

Immediately, more than a dozen servants and yamen runners were shot to the ground.

"Go back, go back!"

"Retreat to the back of the county government office!"

"Ah! I've been shot by an arrow, someone come and save me! Don't abandon me! I feel like I can still be saved!"

"..."

A volley of arrows threw Li Gang's attacking formation into chaos.

Everyone was forced to wave their weapons to block the arrows.

Li Gang shouted loudly and gathered the servants and bailiffs around him.

Under the cover of his soldiers, he quickly retreated to the back court.

"kill!"

"Brothers, keep killing!"

"We must not let County Magistrate Li Gang escape!"

At the gate of the county government office, Captain Lin saw Li Gang, drew his sword, roared, and chased towards the place where Li Gang retreated.

"Brothers, it's time to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds!"

"That's right. Qu Shuai has already cooked sauerkraut noodles, braised chicken legs and braised eggs for us in the back. Qu Shuai is waiting for news of our victory."

All of a sudden, the Yellow Turban soldiers heard that臊子面, braised eggs, and braised chicken legs were waiting for them.

There was a gleam of light in every soldier's eyes.

"Brothers, follow Captain Lin and charge!"

"Damn it! Whoever dares to stop me from eating sauerkraut noodles, braised chicken legs and braised eggs, I will chop him to pieces."

"Hahaha, I killed another one, braised chicken legs here I come!"

"For the sake of the臊子面 and Qu Shuai, I will fight you!"

"..."

Under the temptation of delicious food, the Yellow Turban Army soldiers were as excited as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Under the cover of the shield soldiers, they rushed towards the Jiangdu County officers and soldiers fearlessly.

"Puff puff!"

Just a shock.

The defense of Jiangdu County officers and soldiers, who were already at a disadvantage, collapsed instantly.

The Yellow Turban soldiers waved their long swords in their hands and rushed into the crowd of officers and soldiers like hungry wolves.

"Hold on!"

"Everyone must stay calm!"

"As long as we maintain our defensive formation, we still have hope of survival."

at this time.

Under the cover of his soldiers, Li Gang has retreated to the back court.

There were dozens of guards around him.

We have just managed to stabilize our position.

Captain Lin followed with the Yellow Turban soldiers.

Then he charged straight into the officers' and soldiers' defensive formation.

"why?"

"Aren't the Yellow Turbans also short of food? Why are they so powerful?"

Li Gang saw the Yellow Turban Army's attack and muttered to himself.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

"grown ups!"

"You go first, we'll cover you!"

"As long as we escape to the temporary military camp in the county, we still have hope!"

"Brothers, stand together and carve out a bloody path for the adults."

At this time, it was completely dark.

By the light of the torches, Li Gang discovered that they had been surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army.

In such a situation, it is extremely difficult to break out of the siege.

But in order to survive, he had to charge and fight.

"kill!"

Li Gang shouted loudly and rushed out with dozens of servants around him.

"Stop them!"

"Don't let them get away!"

Captain Lin grinned fiercely and rushed towards Li Gang with his sword in hand.

"Puff puff!"

The sound of the spear hitting flesh rang out, and scarlet blood flowers bloomed in the darkness.

Just one round.

Li Gang and his servants were stabbed to death by hundreds of Yellow Turban soldiers.

Li Gang, the magistrate of Jiangdu County.

He never figured it out until he died.

Why are these Yellow Turban soldiers so brave and fighting so desperately?

these people.

It was completely different from the Yellow Turban Army he had encountered before!
"puff!"

Captain Lin walked up to Li Gang's corpse, whose eyes were still open, and chopped off his head. He held the head in his hand and laughed wildly toward the sky.

"Master Qu will win!"

"The Yellow Turban Army will win!"

Then he gave orders to the Yellow Turban Army around him.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield and welcome the arrival of Commander Qu!"

at this time.

A small number of officers and soldiers were instantly submerged in the yellow torrent.

Some officers and soldiers who were lucky enough and not seriously injured saw that the situation was hopeless.

Drop your weapons and kneel in surrender.

An hour later.

Jiangdu County Government Office.

"Mr. Cheng, do you remember the bet we made before?"

Ye Chen put his hands behind his back, with a faint smile on his face, and walked into the county government office side by side with Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu used the light of the torch to look at the bloodstains on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up.

Smelling the strong smell of blood in the air.

Take a deep breath.

"Of course I remember!"

"I'm willing to admit defeat!"

"I am Cheng Yu, the humble servant, and I am here to see you, my lord!"

Cheng Yu clasped his hands and bowed respectfully to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen helped Cheng Yu up and watched as the county government officials did not have enough time to clean up the battlefield.

Sigh with emotion.

"In troubled times, we are just trying to survive!"

"If you don't kill me, I will kill you!"

"Someone has to die anyway!"

"Why should we be the ones to die?"

Hear the words.

Cheng Yu was speechless.

In today's Han Dynasty, everyone uses the heads of the Yellow Turban Army to increase their reputation.

Since someone is going to die.

The ones who would be best off dying are you Yellow Turban rebels.

Cheng Yu knew very well that this kind of thinking was the mainstream thinking among the court and the aristocratic families today.

But now he recognizes Ye Chen as his master.

Look at it from the perspective of the Yellow Turban Army.

Yes.

Since someone has to die!
Why are we the Yellow Turban Army the ones who died?
Rather than you princes, ministers, and wealthy families who are indulged in luxury.

"May I ask you a question, my lord?"

"What are your plans next?"

Cheng Yu quickly got into his role.

Started planning for Ye Chen's future.

"It's easy!"

"We'll use Jiangdu County as our base and develop slowly."

"It can be summed up in six words."

"Build high walls and store up food!"

"Build high walls and store up food!"

"Build high walls and store up food!"

Cheng Yu repeated these six words over and over again.

Slowly.

There was a hint of depth in his eyes.

He always has a feeling.

Looks like my new lord.

There should be something after these six words!
Although the Han court still exists, the situation is precarious.

Dong Zhuo controlled the government, the young emperor was deposed, and the new emperor was established.

Hold the emperor hostage to order the princes.

In addition, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, the local governors had their own troops and were very powerful.

Listen to orders, not announcements.

In fact, he is no different from the princes.

The Han Dynasty will not be peaceful for long.

"Build high walls and store up food!"

Cheng Yu was still repeating these words.

When I came to my senses, I found that Ye Chen had already gone far away.

Then he remembered the various meals that Ye Chen brought out like magic.

He stroked his beard and couldn't help but smile.

"If things continue like this, according to the Lord's plan!"

"I believe that this Yellow Turban Army will be able to become a participant in the future competition for supremacy in the world!"

Thinking like this.

Cheng Yu whispered to Captain Lin.

He took five hundred Yellow Turban soldiers to the temporary military camp in Jiangdu County.

Next, he had to clean up some trouble for Ye Chen.

It can be considered as a token of my loyalty!
