Chapter 206 Taishan Four Bandits, Zang Ba’s decision!
After saying that, Gu Rubing looked at Zhang Fei with a smile.
After hearing this, Zhang Fei was still a little unwilling, but the result of the lot was such that in the end he could only admit defeat and nodded.
"General Xu, you continue to stay in Qingzhou and beware of Hebei Yuan Shao."
Gu Rubing looked at Xu Rong and said.
Qingzhou is his base camp and must always be guarded by generals. Once Qingzhou changes, he will no longer have a foothold. Therefore, in addition to Xu Rong, Qian Zhao, Chen Dao, Tian Yu, and Han Hao also remain in Qingzhou. .
"yes!"
Xu Rong immediately nodded and accepted the order.
"Filial and upright, Zhicai, you will go out with our army this time."
Gu Rubing turned to look at Xi Zhicai and Fazheng again, and said.
"yes!"
Xi Zhicai and Fazheng also accepted their orders.
After everything was arranged, Gu Rubing wrote a letter and said, "Here comes someone!"
"exist!"
The guard immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said.
"Send someone to go to Xuzhou quickly and deliver this letter to the pottery merchant." Gu Rubing handed the letter to the bodyguard and said.
"yes!"
The guard took the letter, then immediately turned around and left in a hurry.
…………
Zuo Rong was a serious problem for the pottery merchant. Therefore, after the pottery merchant received Gu Rubing's letter and learned that Gu Rubing was willing to send troops to Pi and join him to defeat Zuo Rong, the pottery merchant was too late to be happy, and naturally he was not happy. May refuse.
So just ten days later, Gu Rubing received a reply from the pottery merchant.
In the letter, the pottery merchant first thanked Gu Rubing, and promised that he would be grateful once he regained Xiapi and Guangling.
After receiving the reply from the pottery merchant, Gu Rubing did not hesitate at all and immediately counted 50,000 troops, left Qingzhou and rushed to Pengcheng.
At the same time, Gu Rubing ordered Guoyuan to be retained as a logistics agent and ordered Guoyuan to transport a large amount of military pay and grain to be transported to the front line via Langya.
Zang Ba's separatist rule in Langya was naturally something that could not be hidden from Zang Ba. Therefore, Zang Ba learned of the fact that a large amount of money and grain were transported to the front line through Langya at the first opportunity.
at this time.
Inside Zang Ba's military tent.
Zang Ba, who is sitting on the main seat, is eight feet long, extremely majestic, burly, with a fleshy face. He is wearing a battle armor wrapped in mink and exudes an extremely barbaric aura.
Zang Ba's four generals, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Chang Xi, were all gathered together at this moment, and each of them was extremely tall.
The four are known as the Four Bandits of Mount Tai, and they are also the most powerful generals under Zang Ba's command. Each of them is extremely brave, one can be compared to a hundred, and they have the courage to be unstoppable by ten thousand people.
At this moment, almost everyone in the entire military tent had a look of uncontrollable excitement on their faces.
"My lord, Zuo Rong is located south of the Huaihe River. It cannot be conquered overnight. Liu Bei transported a large amount of military pay and equipment to the front line. He probably wants to fight Zuo Rong for a long time."
There was a trace of greed in Wu Dun's eyes, and he raised his hand to Zang Ba and said: "Currently, there is a shortage of money and food in the village. God is really helping me. Lord, as the saying goes, if God doesn't take what he gives, he will take the blame!"
Zang Ba also nodded, with excitement on his face, and said: "Yes, it suits my purpose. I also want to send troops to plunder these wealth and grains!"
Hearing this, Sun Guan frowned slightly, opened his mouth and cupped his hands to Zang Ba and said: "My lord, Liu Bei has a well-prepared army and is a hero in the world. If Liu Bei is offended, Liu Bei may not let it go."
"Haha, Zhongtai, why have you become so timid and fearful?"
Zang Ba shook his head and smiled at Sun Guan and said: "Langya and Taishan are extremely steep terrains that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if I robbed these money and grains, I would drill into the mountains and forests. Even though Liu Bei is capable of reaching the sky, he can still What can I do?"
"Yes! Zhongtai, you worry too much. You must not miss the fat meat that is brought to your mouth!"
Chang Xi also looked excited and said: "Besides, each of our Taishan troops is worth one to a hundred. If we really fight, Liu Bei may not be able to take advantage!"
"good!"
Yin Li nodded and said with a sneer: "I have long heard that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are heroes among ten thousand people. Haha, I don't think so. I have long wanted to meet them!"
Hearing everyone say this, a trace of hesitation suddenly appeared on Sun Guan's face.
Although he was cautious by nature, it would be a lie to say that he was not at all tempted by the large piece of fat in front of him.
After all, he is a thief. How can there be a thief in this world who is not greedy?
"Zhongtai, you are too cautious."
Yin Li said with a smile: "With the bravery of my Taishan army and the unprepared attack on the enemy, we will definitely be able to make a big plunder and then retreat with success!"
"Yes, Zhongtai."
Chang Xi also spoke: "Besides, we have plundered Qingzhou a lot before, and we have already formed a feud with Liu Bei. In this case, what are we worried about? We are sitting on natural dangers, why should we be afraid of Liu Bei?"
"that is!"
Wu Dun said: "Now all the money and food are hoarded in Cangshan City. If some time passes, things may change again, and then the fat on the lips will be gone!"
"Cangshan City is not under our control. Xu Shi is stationed by the Taoshang Department, but Xu Shi is just an ordinary person. Although Cangshan City is not heavily guarded, there are not many sergeants on Liu Bei's side to escort the money and food."
Yin Li said with a smile: "Our army is extremely brave. We can capture Cangshan City in a quick battle. Even if we retreat ten thousand steps, even if we cannot capture it, our army will leave and Xu Shi will not be able to retain it!"
After hearing this, Sun Guan's caution was finally overshadowed by the greed in his heart. He no longer hesitated and said immediately: "Okay, in that case, let's do something big!"
"Hahahaha, okay!"
Zang Ba immediately nodded with satisfaction. After looking around, he said, "Although our Taishan Army is extremely brave, the Qingzhou Army is not someone to be taken lightly. You must not underestimate the enemy."
"The five of us led 20,000 troops and attacked Cangshan City. We looted and plundered Cangshan City. After taking Liu Bei's money and food, we immediately returned to the mountains and forests. We will never be allowed to stay in Cangshan City. Anyone who disobeys the order...will be executed!" "
Zang Ba said with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Zang Ba was very clear about the virtues of his gang of Taishan thieves. If he had not made it clear in advance, these Taishan thieves would definitely stay in Cangshan City and continue to plunder even after they had finished robbing all the money and food.
If you stay in Cangshan City for too long, once Liu Bei gets the news and turns back with his troops, he will be surrounded by the defenders of Cangshan City in front and behind, and something will happen if you cooperate inside and outside.
Regarding Liu Bei, Zang Ba said nothing, but in his heart he was still quite afraid.
After all, Liu Bei had defeated a million Yellow Turbans before and gained a great reputation. Although the Taishan Army under his command was far from comparable to the Yellow Turban Army, the Taishan Army was not as numerous as the Yellow Turban Army.
Hearing this, Sun Guan and the others were shocked, and immediately raised their hands and said, "Yes!"
