Did the fire at Changsha start from above?

  The next day, Zhang Kuang continued to lead his team of four or five hundred men towards the location of Changsha.

  Due to the miraculous phenomenon last night, Zhang Kuang's prestige in the entire team has been rising continuously. Even those former Han army soldiers who had just joined the team wanted to integrate into these Yellow Turbans as soon as possible. Although they were slowed down by more than 30 large supply carts and only advanced 40 miles a day, this speed was already 20% higher than the previous day.

  Wang Guo, who was revered as the "Military Advisor", followed Zhang Kuang with utmost respect and replied to his superior's questions with "speaking without reserve, and reserving nothing". Although Zhang Kuang still felt a bit weak due to last night's antics, and his internal "Tai Ping True Qi" had not fully recovered, he carefully inquired about the local Yellow Turban situation.

  According to Wang Guo, this local snake, the current territory belongs to Yu State's "Chen Country", and the king's name is Liu Chong.

  This Han dynasty relative is not an ordinary person. Although the Liu surname kings of the late Eastern Han often had many restrictions and usually only had a title, this Chen King Liu Xiang, however, had great authority in his locality.

  Chen Wang's prestige comes from his strong and powerful strength. It is said that Chen Wang was good at using a strong crossbow to shoot, and once shot ten arrows in a row at a distance of 100 steps, all hitting the same point, and cut down a big tree with a diameter of one person's arm span!

  Moreover, the "War Qi" he cultivated was not an ordinary kind, but rather the "Sunset Ruse" passed down from the ancient great hero Hou Yi. This extraordinary true energy, if used in close combat, would have a terrible effect. However, it was one of the few rare "War Qi" that could be attached to arrows, greatly increasing their lethality.

  Half a month ago, the "Peng Tuo" forces of the Yellow Turbans in Yu Province had gathered to besiege Chen State. Liu Xiu, the king of Chen State, personally led several thousand state troops to meet the enemy.

  In the city of Duting, King Chen Liu Xiang faced ten times as many enemy troops, calm and composed, personally led the strong crossbow to shoot, a hundred steps away, the yellow turban armor soldiers holding large shields were pierced through, unstoppable. After being shot dead by ten elite armored soldiers in a row, Peng Tuo's soldiers lost their morale and had to retreat.

  After this war, the people of Chen State feared Liu Xiang's archery and dared not to rebel again. Therefore, in the current territory of Chen State, the government army has taken absolute control.

  Zhang Kuang's troops were lucky to have only passed through the border of Chen Guo. If they dared to penetrate deeper, even a fierce general like "Qian Ren Po" would find it difficult to gain any advantage.

  Upon hearing Wang Guo's introduction, Zhang Kuang secretly cursed in his heart. Such a powerful and fierce expert, it would be better to keep a safe distance from him. At the same time, he thought to himself, how come Luo Da didn't mention this at all?

  In the conversation, Wang Guo asked sideways about how to get the qualification of "enlightenment". Zhang Kuang saw that this "military advisor" had a medium build and was skilled in the "fast, accurate, ruthless" military assassination technique, and secretly shook his head.

  His inexplicable acquisition of the "enlightenment" technique actually doesn't have as great an effect as outsiders think. In essence, this "enlightenment" is just inducing and bringing out the potential that the human body originally possesses.

  Let's just say that Zhou Cang, who has been successfully "enlightened", is still young and has a lot of room for improvement in both his physical body and martial arts skills. So, after Zhang Kuang "enlightened" him, Zhou Cang entered his peak period of martial power more than ten years ahead of schedule.

  If we put it figuratively and compare it with data from computer games, the original Zhou Cang's martial arts skills were only at a level of seventy or so, which is barely third-rate.

  But after "pointing", Zhou Cang's martial arts suddenly reached the peak of 80 to 90, which can be considered as one of the top two strong men in the world. In such a contrast, Zhou Cang looked like he had undergone a transformation like rebirth.

  As for Diwai, he is currently only in his early twenties and far from his peak. If we use computer game data to describe him, his stats are probably less than 90. Moreover, the weapon he's using now isn't very suitable for him, which is why Zhou Cang can barely keep up with the current Diwai, but still slightly inferior.

  However, if Dian Wei was "enlightened" by Zhang Cang, he could become the super strong general who would later be called "the evil coming of old times" by Cao Cao. Such a top-notch strongman, represented numerically, is an existence close to a hundred in martial arts, which is no longer something Zhou Cang can contend with. Therefore, Zhang Cang was so eager for Dian Wei's "enlightenment".

  So, "enlightenment" is very useful, but not omnipotent. If you encounter someone like Lü Bu or Zhao Yun who are at the peak of their physical condition, Zhang Kuang will instinctively feel that the effect of "enlightenment" will be close to zero.

  Therefore, Zhang Kuang had already laid down a foreshadowing when he first announced his ability to others.

  He claims that only those who have had a "good affinity" with him in the past ten lives can be "enlightened". If one has no affinity with Zhang Kuang for ten consecutive lives, Zhang Kuang can only helplessly declare: You cannot be "enlightened".

  As a result, Wang Guo, who had already passed his peak of martial arts, naturally became another victim of this set of excuses.

  Of course, the veteran Han Jun Tun, who had experienced many hardships, would not be knocked down by this small blow. In his heart, Wang Guo was thinking, should he bring out the son of his old home and see if there was any fate between him and this young commander?

  With Wang Guo as their guide, Zhang Kuang's Yellow Turban army increased its speed of advance. To show his sincerity, Wang Guo even volunteered to lead a small team dressed in Han military uniforms to deceive a small fort along the way and refill the grain carts that had been emptied by half for the troops.

  When Wang Guo was directing the transportation of rice, he also took the opportunity to investigate and found that among the two large carts in the convoy that were guarded most tightly. When he saw what was on the cart, he couldn't help but rub his eyes hard. This action made Huang Jinli, who was responsible for escorting the vehicles, burst out laughing.

  The things on the carriage were not gold and silver treasures as Wang Guo had imagined, but rather large piles of seemingly useless bamboo slips and silk books.

  From then on, Wang Guo's attitude towards Zhang Kuang became even more respectful. Because he had also heard the story of Xiang Yu entering Xianyang that year. Being able to follow a leader with great ambitions and vision, the future prospects would undoubtedly be brighter.

  Ten days later, Zhang Kuang looked at the distant road, and with a satisfied smile, he laughed. Another twenty miles ahead was Changsha. The scouting party sent from Bo Cai's camp had already made contact with this small team that came to support from afar. By tomorrow noon, Zhang Kuang would be able to meet the famous Yellow Turban general who shook Luoyang.

  "The great fire of Changsha, since it hasn't started yet, so when I arrive, don't even think about starting it!"

  Zhang Kuang pointed confidently and proudly at the mountains and rivers, as if he saw the big flag of the Yellow Turbans inserted on the city wall of Changsha.

  As for now, Zhang Kuang's task is:

  Have a good sleep.

  After a good rest, the wise and powerful General Zhang will be in top form tomorrow to remind that careless and arrogant General Bo.

  On this road, Wang Guo's positivity was quite high. With Zhang Kuang's full support and leadership, the current Yellow Turban Army under Zhang Kuang's command had a significant improvement in military discipline compared to before. To put it figuratively, they evolved from a mob of undisciplined troops to a group of roaming warriors.

  Of course, Zhang Kuang's contribution was not small. In order to give Wang Guo prestige, he conspired with Wang Guo and let Zhou Cang take the lead in performing a trick of suffering. As a result, Wang Guo seized an opportunity to criticize Zhou Cang publicly and whipped him five times. With this example, Wang Guo, nominally the military advisor but actually the military judge, finally established some prestige within the army.

  This was not enough; after setting up camp, Wang Guo, who could not stay idle, gathered a group of Yellow Turbans together and began to explain the "Fifty-Four Cuts" military tactics.

  In fact, in the original uprising plan of "Taiping Tao", some high-level followers who had served in the Han army and were familiar with military affairs were arranged in each gathering place of the followers. When the uprising was launched, these former Han army followers would serve as mid-to-high-ranking officers in the Yellow Turban Army, helping the leader of each "Fang" to effectively train and command the Yellow Turbans under their command.

  According to this plan, in Zhang Jue's "square", there should be at least two or three former leaders of the Taiping Taoist sect to assist Zhang Jue.

  However, the plan did not change quickly. Due to the betrayal of Tang Zhou, the Yellow Turban Rebellion had to be advanced. As a result, the military advisor who was supposed to arrive did not arrive, and the former Han army lieutenant who was originally in the team suddenly fell ill and died.

  As a result, there was not a single military talent under Zhang Kuang's command. This also gave Wang Guo, the surrendered general, enough room to play.

  When will these troops be trained into a powerful army that is "as swift as the wind, as gentle as a forest, as unshakeable as a mountain, and as mysterious as a shadow"?

  Deep in thought, suddenly, Zhou Cang took a step forward from behind, pointing to the western sky and said with doubt:

  "Master, look over here!"

  Zhang Kuang turned his head back to take a look, but saw that in the dark night, a red light suddenly shone through. That red light, piercing through the dim earth, directly pierced into Zhang Kuang's heart!

  Really?...

  Zhang Kuang stood still, carefully observing for a while. He saw that the red light was spreading and soon formed a red line. Zhang Kuang perked up his ears to listen carefully and faintly heard some noise. He sighed and turned to Zhou Cang, saying:

  "Da Feng, call He Qian over."

  "Promise!"

  Zhou Cang turned and left. Zhang Fei's heart was filled with hatred, he couldn't help but let out a loud roar to vent his anger.

  "Damn it, don't play with people like this!"

  What you fear most will come upon you...

  The fire in Changsha has finally started!

  At this moment, Zhang Kuang even hated to take a bite of Wang Guo's body.

  If it weren't for this guy blocking the way, I would have arrived a day earlier, and this fire wouldn't have started either!

  Person: Liu Chong

  Chen Wang Liu Chong was also a prominent figure in the early Three Kingdoms period. As a member of the Han imperial clan, Liu Chong's abilities were quite impressive. This powerful man relied on his thousands of strong crossbowmen to occupy Chen State, not only driving out all the Yellow Turbans but also daring neither Cao Cao nor Yuan Shu to provoke him.

  However, Liu Chong's final outcome was somewhat unfortunate, and he was actually assassinated by someone sent by Yuan Shu. Probably for this reason, there is no more appearance of this person. It can be seen that a person's luck is still quite important.

  The story of "Xiao He entering Xianyang" is recorded in the history books. When Liu Bang entered Xianyang, all his generals went to seize gold, silk and other treasures, but Xiao He alone seized the maps and documents of the Qin dynasty's laws and geography, treasuring them as precious possessions. Later, during the Chu-Han contention, Duke Pei was thoroughly familiar with the geography, topography, population, and strengths and weaknesses of all regions under heaven, and in the struggle he gained the upper hand from the very start.
