”This, this, this …” This xanthopanax wants to force the Xun family onto a path of death. If he does not agree, then even if the xanthopanax did not make a move, these commoners would probably destroy the entire Xun family. ” Only then did Xun Gun started to worry, his hands continued to rub together, and he could not even breathe properly.

Yes, if they were to agree to xanthopanax's request, the imperial government would definitely not let them go. Their entire family would be convicted of aiding the thieves to rebel, and the nine clans would be exterminated; but if they were to refuse, Xun Mansion would also be convicted of being unrighteous, and the citizens of the city would not let them off.

”This Peng Tuo is too vicious.” Xun You sputtered.

”Forget it.” Xun Gun slammed the table. ”Since loyalty and righteousness cannot be divided, there is no need for us to be foolish. If the two of you go and become Peng Tuo's advisors, you can also persuade him to kill less and do more good deeds.

At the side of the White River, the crowd was clamoring.

Peng Tuo's tightly knitted eyebrows slowly relaxed. His expression was relaxed, he gently raised his horse reins, and the warhorse beneath him raised its head, ”Hui …” A long hiss. He looked at the other side of the White River and waited until the last boat of soldiers crossed the White River before Peng Tuo laughed out loud. Huang Shao and the Zhang Banxian beside him also laughed out loud.

In the past few days, Peng Tuo was the happiest of days. Not only did he snatch enough food for one year, he also caught over three hundred people of Zhang family and dug up Zhang Jean's house from top to bottom. No wonder the Minister of the Court had always said that eunuchs and their families were greedy for stolen goods. Just from Zhang Jean's home, they had robbed over a hundred carts of gold and silver s, five pieces of coins, and treasures. With the property of Zhang Jean's family, a hundred thousand xanthopanax would be fine for thirty to fifteen years.

However, what was even more comfortable was that they managed to get rid of the cavalry of Youzhou. They only sent a portion of their newly captured strong men, loaded them with dozens of carts of food and grass, and then led the cavalry of Youzhou away. Only then was the army able to quickly head south and successfully cross the White River. It seemed like this cavalry of Youzhou was not as powerful as they had imagined. Just a little trick would be enough to fool them.

Therefore, all of this was thanks to the stratagem of the Military Advisor Zhang Banxian. Before every step, Zhang Banxian would always have to bathe and change clothes, burn incense for worship, and pray for the blessing of the heavens. In the end, they would always have their wish granted, which was so much that now, Peng Tuo and Huang Shao even had to pitch camp for Zhang Banxian to take a look at the feng shui, in case the camp was in a bad position and their luck failed.

As for Xun Yu and Xun You, who were accompanying him, they barely spoke, but Peng Tuo did not care, as long as they followed him. According to the Zhang Banxian, when the imperial government gave the order to arrest them, they would naturally help the xanthopanax in order to protect themselves and their families.

According to the Zhang Banxian's arrangements, on the day of capturing Zhang Jun's family, Peng Tuo had already sent a servant of his family to deliver a letter to Zhang Ren, requesting for the Emperor to pardon Peng Tuo, Huang Shao and the others, and to give them a place to be an official. Otherwise, just wait to collect the corpses of his family.

Peng Tuo, Huang Shao, and the Zhang Banxian had already discussed their plans for the next step. After looting the Lunan for a while, they added some youth and robust men and retreated to the vicinity of the cautious county of the Lunan. There was a huge mountain leaning against it, and they could go in and out of the city.

Outside of Pingyu, there were swords and spears everywhere.

When he received the news that the xanthopanax was trying to cross the White River, Wang Yun was overjoyed. On one hand, he sent out orders for the conscription of the brave men from the various counties of the Lunan, and quickly rushed to the meeting place to gather. On the other hand, he was leading the Henan officers and soldiers to the meeting place to stand guard, in an attempt to eliminate the xanthopanax from the Pingyu in one fell swoop.

The emperor was shocked. In order to quickly suppress the emperor, the imperial government had specially chosen Wang Yun as their disciple, at the same time conscripting Shang Shuang, Kong Rong and other famous people to serve as Wang Yun's representative, leading a large number of troops to suppress the emperor. At the same time, he appointed Wang Zha as Lunan tai, in charge of annihilating xanthopanax Bo Cai.

When Wang Yun had first led the troops to war, he had fully demonstrated his extraordinary literary and martial skills. In advance, Wang Yun had asked for the opinion of the ordinary soldiers and had designed a meticulous plan of battle. During the battle, Wang Yun had personally put on his disguise and displayed his skills, completely defeating the xanthopanax s of Forbidden City, Ge Po and the others.

, who was filled with confidence, did not put Peng Tuo and Huang Shao in his eyes. After arriving at the King's City, he found out that Peng Tuo and Huang Shao were currently plundering and robbing in the Western Flower, Qiang and Ru Yang regions. After discussing with Wang Zhiqiang, he decided to lead over 10,000 Henan officers and soldiers s and over 50,000 Rennan rural chivalry s to intercept them, preventing Peng Tuo and Huang Shao from escaping to the southern part of Lunan.

There was no cloud in the sky, no wind at all, and overhead there was a hot sun, and all the trees stood listless and lackadaisical. However, Wang Yun was currently in high spirits, this was a good sign for sending troops, his thin face revealed a faint smile, his short stature actually had a few heroic warriors standing on the horse, his left hand stroked his white beard, his eyes brimming with vigor, as he scanned through his troops.

”Let's go.”

Wang Yun waved his hand proudly, and the vast army of Henan Province officials and Rennan rural chivalry began to head towards the north. As a civil servant who commanded thousands of men to fight, his heart was filled with pride. He seemed to have seen an opportunity to earn merits. In his opinion, when Peng Tuo and Huang Shao had been defeated by the elders and Yang Di, they had definitely been defeated.
