Chapter Sixty Six: Blocking

 Liu Chang was sitting in the camp to check out various matters before the camp and learning Lu Zhi's various methods of handling it.

Suddenly Zhao Di walked in and reported to Liu Chang: "General, the sentry guard in front said that the Yellow Turban Army in the city suddenly began to assemble."

Liu Chang suddenly asked curiously: "How did they know?"

Zhao Di explained to Liu Chang: "Watching the soldiers on the tower saw that the soldiers on the enemy's city wall began to change rapidly, which was not consistent with their usual movements, so it was concluded that the enemies in the city must have begun to change."

After hearing this, Liu Chang thought for a while and said, "I think it must be that the great sages and good teachers saw that the flag of our camp had changed and wanted to do something tonight. Then we can't sit still and wait for death. You go and call all the lieutenants to discuss countermeasures together."

After a while, all the lieutenants came to Liu Chang's tent.

Liu Chang said to them: "After hearing the report from the sentry gate, the bandits in the city have begun to move. I think they will take action today. What advice do you guys do?"

Most of the captains looked at Liu Chang without saying anything with a hatred and gloating expression.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "Although the Yellow Turban bandits in the city are said to have a population of 100,000, except for the elderly, weak, women and children, there can be at most more than 30,000. Among these people, there are less than 10,000 elite soldiers, and the rest are people with only a simple weapon and no armor. Our strength is far superior to the enemy. If they dare to leave the city on their own initiative, they will definitely be defeated. General Liu doesn't have to worry."

Others also began to glar at Liu Bei.

Liu Chang sat in the upper position, knocking on the table in front of him with his hands and thinking carefully.

Liu Chang stopped, and Liu Chang looked at the captains who were not convinced by him and said, "I know you have resentment towards me, but this is in front of the enemy's formation. As long as you don't obey my general orders before General Dong arrives, I can kill you and others according to military law." Then Liu Chang said in a clear tone: "I know you may be thinking in your heart that you can do nothing to work and not work hard at that time. But I want to tell you that I am a thief. If I lose, I will also be in the mountains and forests. And you are all people with great family affairs. I think it will definitely affect your family and commanders. Besides, you usually say that you can spare your life for the sake of family and country affairs, so let me see."

Seeing that everyone under the tent did not say anything, Liu Chang directly ordered: "Today, the enemy suddenly started to act, and I thought it would be necessary to break through. The situation in the south was decayed, and they must be heading towards the north. After hearing that Zhang Bao is now trapped in Quyang. Liu Bei, you lead the garrison camp, infantry camp, and shooting camp three camps on the northern road. Once the enemy fled north, you will immediately block it. The rest of the people will follow me to defend here and act according to the opportunity."

Liu Bei immediately responded and said, "Beijing accept the order." After that, he got up and left the tent, and then several lieutenants followed him out of the tent to gather troops.

Liu Chang looked at the remaining people in the camp and said, "Everyone should gather the troops of his subordinates. I think it will definitely not be too peaceful today."

So the rest of the people also walked out one after another.

Liu Chang walked out of the tent, looked at Zhao Di who was standing at the door of the tent, and said to him: "Get all our people together. These people have resentment towards me, and I am afraid that they will cheat me on the battlefield. We have to put our team beside us, and if there is really something to do, it is easy to make plans."

Zhao Di nodded and said, "Okay, I'll gather our team now."

Liu Chang reminded him again: "You and Yide both put on the armor and the enemy may come out of the city at any time."

"Don't worry, brother, we must be armored today."

After Liu Chang returned to the tent, he also put his armor on his body and began to sit in the tent and wait for the troops to gather together.

The gathering of troops began to be carried out inside and outside the city. After a while, Liu Bei led his troops out of the camp.

The sun gradually sank into the mountain, and the forest in the distance was dyed with a layer of clear red. The mountains were stacked with nights, and the light gold dyed with forests. A group of people just stayed in the forest and waited for something.

Guan Yu said to Liu Bei with a bad tone: "How did the eldest brother have a good relationship with Liu Chang? This person is obviously a person who is tempted by the flames and accomplices."

Liu Bei said to Guan Yu, "I have known him for two years. At that time, we were all rash people. I could meet you because I followed his advice to me. He was a strategy and knowledgeable person. He was a rare hero in the world." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "At that time, he had a great disaster in Jizhou. He heard that he built a camp alone and helped countless hungry people. It can be called countless living people. I had heard that he had a good relationship with great wise men and good men. He thought that he would join the Yellow Turban bandits after he robbed Zhongshan. At that time, it was the time when the Yellow Turban bandits were powerful, but he repelled the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, and then transformed into the county magistrate of Zhongshan. It can be seen that he was cunning and had a great vision."

Guan Yu still said disdainfully: "Would this person be a hero? Since I saw him, he was either making friends with eunuchs or flattering Shangguan Quyi. I think he must be a frank person. He is not as frank as his elder brother. But I think he is also frank with his elder brother, and he must be very impressed by his elder brother."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Don't say that, we are still under his command now."

Guan Yu thought for a while and said, "It's just a temporary restraint. I don't know what kind of person General Dong is."

Liu Bei said cautiously: "I think Liu Chang is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he will definitely achieve something in the future." As he said that, he remembered his ambition when he was young, and then said: "I should do this too."

After hearing this, Guan Yu said, "Brother has made many military achievements in the fight against the Yellow Turban bandits. After all the Yellow Turban bandits are wiped out, the court will definitely reward the elder brother according to the merits. I think that my elder brother will definitely achieve some achievements in the future."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "It should be as long as the clouds say."

Just as the two were talking, news suddenly came from the guard post in front.

A soldier came: "Report to Captain Liu, we saw a Yellow Turban bandit coming out of the city, heading straight to our camp under the banner of General God."

Liu Bei began to ponder.

Guan Yu asked in a calm tone: "Brother, can we go back to help?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "The general order I received was to block the Yellow Turban bandits who were trying to go north. At this time, the Yellow Turbans in the city did not know how to move, so we cannot act rashly. There are still Yueqi and Changshui camps in the camp. There are also troops led by Liu Chang himself. However, the Yellow Turban martial arts lacked, so I think it would not be easily taken down."

Then he ordered to the crowd, "We should obey the orders and wait here."
