Chapter 52 Are you willing to be thieves all your life?
Yuan Yao was captured.
A shocking wave suddenly broke out between the Yuan army.
Huang Zhong, Cui Zhouping and other civil and military people were shocked, and followed closely behind to carry military rations to the full army. Xu Chu, who heard about this, couldn't help but look anxious.
He was responsible for Yuan Yao's safety, but now...
For a moment, a group of soldiers were in chaos, and the generals were rushing to quickly rescue the young master.
Sure enough, Huang Zhong stood up at the critical moment, and with the assistance of Cui Zhouping, he suppressed the morale of the army and temporarily controlled the overall situation.
Afterwards, Huang Zhong sent Xu Chu to send a large number of scouts to Xia Cai and other cities around him to inquire about the news and spy on whether there were strong water thieves nearby.
Inquire about the specific situation of Yuan Yao's capture.
...
Maqiuhe.
About 3,000 pirates controlled the ships to sail the Huai River and quickly arrived here.
Subsequently, all the thieves entered the water camp to rest and recuperate in turn.
"Precaution the prisoners of war first, and no one can approach half of them without my own instructions."
"Abide by the order!"
For a moment, the middle-aged leader with a sharp sword from a high position on the deck of the battleship was held high. The extremely burly middle-aged leader couldn't help but give a stern order. The thieves under his command received the orders seriously, and then drove Yuan Yao and several others into the camp to take care of them.
From the terrain, this place is the intersection of the downstream of the Huai River and other tributaries. Because Zhongshan lies across the left side, the surrounding rivers are continuous.
However, under the obstruction of high mountains and dense forests, the river water was very stable. This group of water thieves made full use of the geographical advantage and relying on the mountain situation and meeting to build a water and land camp that can connect water and land, and connect with each other.
Moreover, the terrain is very hidden and extremely difficult to detect.
As the thief slowly drove into the camp, the little leaders around the thief leader couldn't help but look puzzled, and they frowned and asked:
"Report to the leader, we have been holding a word in our hearts for a long time, and have been very doubtful. Why did the leader try his best to send scouts to inquire about the facts of Yuan’s army’s southward journey, and suddenly take advantage of their relaxation of their vigilance to plunder Yuan Shu’s son Yuan Yao?"
"What are the benefits of plundering Yuan Yao?"
As soon as these words fell, everyone's expressions became serious and showed some concern.
The Yuan family's power is already invincible in the world. Moreover, in Jiang, your land still has an unparalleled influence.
They couldn't figure out what the benefits of looting Yuan Yao?
I'm afraid... if you are not careful, it will attract a large army to conquer.
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on the originally serious face of the middle-aged leader, and he said in a deep voice: "Brothers, you have been following me for a long time. Let me solemnly ask you for a while, can you wait?"
"If the leader is, please say bluntly. Since we brothers are following you, we will be loyal to you unconditionally at any time, even if we are crushed to pieces, we will do whatever we can!"
Looking at the hard words of everyone, the middle-aged leader looked a little moved.
He held back the corner of his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "If I will bring you and others to the command of Yuan Jun, I wonder if you would like to?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the leaders present were a little unbelievable.
What?
Joining Yuan Jun? The leader is not kidding, they just captured Yuan Shu's son Yuan Yao.
this……
The middle-aged leader's words were unexpected.
After a while.
When everyone's emotions were relieved, a leader couldn't help but bow and asked, "I wonder why the leader suddenly had the idea of joining Yuan Jun?"
"I am really dissatisfied with all my brothers. In fact, I have always been committed to joining the army to achieve success, gain fame, and gain a wife and son. As for following the thief, it is because the world is too chaotic and dark, so I have to do it."
"If I have the opportunity to wash away the thief, I will definitely spare no effort to make a choice."
"Since the leader had the idea of complying with Yuan Jun, why did he spend a lot of effort to capture Yuan Yao? Isn't this a contradiction and seeking revenge with Yuan Jun?"
This statement is also the doubts that the leaders present are currently showing confusion.
Since we want to serve, why should we capture Yuan Yao?
Wouldn't it be better to go directly to vote?
For a moment, looking at the heads under his command, all of them looked puzzled, the middle-aged leader smiled and said bluntly: "It is good to directly apply for the results, but the identity of followers who are imprinted on us in this way will inevitably be despised by some generals of Yuan Jun."
"This move is something I don't want to see."
After saying this, the middle-aged leader paused and continued: "The strategic intention of Yuan Yao is to lead elite troops south to attack the Jianghuai counties. Shouchun, as the hub of Huainan, is also the first choice for Yuan's army to capture."
"But now, as Yangzhou Governor Chen Wen heard about the massive move south of Yuan's army, he was unwilling to give in to the city walls. He could not help but rush to organize the state's troops to station in the south of the Huai River, intending to resist the Yuan army's troops."
"According to the military information we have discovered, the Yuan army was mostly from Zhongzhou in battle, and it was extremely difficult to be good at this type of water battle, and there were extremely shortage of ships that could be used to cross the Huai River."
"In this way, brothers think that what is the probability of the Yuan army crossing the river when the enemy is prepared?"
After a while of analysis.
At this moment, some leaders have begun to gradually understand their meaning.
"Is the leader's intention to plunder Yuan Yao, is it because he wants to use this as a promotion, and to use our strong water combat power and sufficient ships to help him break through the Yangzhou army on the south bank, so that he can be admired by the Yuan army?"
"That's right!"
"I mean this, but I don't know what my brothers think in their hearts, and I don't know if I'm willing to continue to follow me and then cleanse up the identity of the thief?"
"Since the leader considers our future, we are very grateful."
"What's more, the powerful and bully are rampant among the prefectures and counties, and they are protecting and colluding with local officials to oppress the good. If the leader had not organized us to gather together to slaughter the bullies and slaughter the official army."
"I'm afraid we have become the evil spirits under the knife. How can we still be today?"
"We are willing to follow the leader in this life and follow us to the death."
For a moment, most of the leaders showed a firm look on their faces and bowed their hands and said loudly.
Seeing that everyone trusted him so much, he comforted him a few words and ordered them to go and mobilize ordinary people.
Of course, some leaders are used to being thieves and are unwilling to join the army again.
As the saying goes, "Everyone has ambition", he did not force it too much and let them go!
only.
The middle-aged leader also warned sternly: "You are willing to continue to follow the thief. This is your own choice. I will not force you, but I will say it first. If you do something wrong in the future, plunder the people and bully the people, I will surely wipe out you personally."
