Chapter 32: The Burning of Longshe Temple

  Chapter Thirty-Two: The Long Society Burns

  "Sir, we have arrived at the border of Changsha. Should we send someone to contact General Huangfu and find out how we should coordinate with him? We are also unclear about the current enemy situation." said Xun Yu.

  "Yes, what Wen Ruo said is reasonable. At present, the enemy and we are unclear, we should send someone to contact General Huangfu." Cao Cao said.

  "Meng De, let me go. My Mo family has a divine art called Dragon's Wings, which can soar in the sky and clearly see the enemy's situation. Then I will contact General Huangfu to inform him of our army's situation and plan against the enemy. After that, I will use the mechanical bird to send it back to you." Zhang Rui said.

  "Alright, Zhibo, it's all up to you now." Cao Cao wasn't a sentimental person, if there was a suitable candidate why wouldn't he use them? It's just that Zhang Rui didn't address him as "master" like others did along the way, which made Cao Cao feel slightly depressed.

  When Cao Cao and his friends first discussed the heroes of the world, they only praised him and Yuan Shao. Compared to family background, he couldn't compare with Yuan Shao, whose family had produced three high-ranking officials in four generations, and whose descendants filled the empire. In terms of official position, Cao Cao was currently a mere Riding Adjutant, while Yuan Shao was already the Commandant of the Capital Province. As for appearance, Yuan Shao was even more impressive with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, having an extraordinary air about him; whereas Cao Cao himself looked rather unimpressive (historically, Cao Cao was not known for his good looks).

  Forget it, what's the point of thinking so much. At least Zhang Yu is still under his own account now, and Ben Chu that guy doesn't know Zhang Yu, he can already be said to have taken the initiative. Thinking of this, Cao Cao let out a breath.

  Zhang Rui took out the Dragon's Wings, quietly mobilizing his divine power. Before long, he was soaring in the sky. It was another autumn season in Yingchuan. Zhang Rui thought back to when he first arrived at the academy, also in autumn. At that time, he didn't know anything, but now he could soar through the nine heavens.

  Sometimes people always like to compare themselves with their past selves, only by comparing themselves with their past selves can they see how much progress they have made. In this chaotic world, if you don't move forward, you will fall behind, and you don't want to be surpassed either.

  Zhang Rui soon found the Yellow Turban camp, no need to ask why, it was too obvious. And who knows what Huangfu Song's brain is made of, actually building the camp next to the grass. It's still autumn now, and I guess it's just these two days that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were rushed, they didn't react in time, otherwise I guess there would be no need for Meng De to come and rescue, just set fire to this Yellow Turban camp and it will be burned to ashes.

  Looking at the Han army's camp, it was very ordinary and unremarkable, nestled between mountains and water. However, perhaps it was too ordinary, which led to being surrounded by the Yellow Turbans. If they went up the mountain, there would be no water source, a dead end; and if they crossed the water, there were no tools. They could only be trapped in their original location.

  Forget it, I'll go to the military camp to find Huang Fu first and report to him. Since parting ways in Luoyang, he hasn't seen his nominal leader until now.

  Han army camp, Yao Dachui and Wang Ermazi are fellow villagers. The two sympathize with each other's misfortunes, their family land was occupied by the local gentry. In order to make a living, they joined the army. They thought that in this era without war, they could receive their salary, eat and wait for death. Who knew that this damn Zhang Jiao would start a rebellion.

  You rebelled, and you even gathered a group of younger brothers to rebel in the 26 counties of the nine states of the Han Dynasty. You say this isn't a big deal, but it's caused two people to leave their hometown and embark on this journey of war. Although the Han army is also training, they are all new recruits who have never seen blood, let alone killed anyone.

  With Zhu Jun's rash advance, he was ambushed by Ma Chao. Zhu Jun nearly lost his life there, but fortunately, Huangfu Song arrived in time to provide support. However, Huangfu Song was also held back, which gave Ma Chao and Peng Yang the opportunity to tenaciously cling to the Han army, forcing them into a stalemate here.

  "Ma Zi, it's said that the military rations in the camp are running low. Haven't you noticed that the Yellow Turbans haven't attacked for the past two days? They're trying to starve us out," said Yao Da Chui Zi.

  "Shut up, what are you blindly talking about? Generals Huangfu and Zhu have made their decisions freely. What are you following them for? If others hear this, they'll chop off your dog head! And as for little Yao, I'll take care of her myself."

  Wang Erma pulled Yao Dashui's sleeve and said.

  "Eh, Ma Zi, look at the sky, is that a bird flying?"

  "What's going on? Let me take a look. It's so big and doesn't look like a bird at all... This is a real person, isn't it?"

  "Hurry, hurry and report to the general, just say there is an unidentified flying object circling above our camp."

  Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun were in the big camp facing the sand table, pushing each other back and forth, when they were interrupted by a messenger.

  "Report, General, an unidentified flying object has been spotted above our military camp, it appears to be a giant human figure."

  The two of them were shocked after hearing this and hastily came out of their tent to investigate.

  "Yizhen, have you ever heard of anything that can make a living person soar into the nine heavens?" asked Zhu Jun.

  "Gong Wei, I've really heard of it, have you heard of Mohist mechanical engineering?"

  Moisture family agency, Zhu Jun also didn't make a sound, he naturally had heard of it, but the Moisture family hadn't appeared in the world for a long time, so many people probably already forgot.

  Zhang Rui looked at the Han army's large camp and was looking for the commander's tent. He saw two generals coming out of a tent, but couldn't see clearly from afar. They should be Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun. So he flew down to where the two were standing.

  "In the tent of General Cao Cao, Military Advisor Zhang Rui said, 'I have seen two generals.' Zhang Rui came down and paid his respects."

  "Oh? So the young friend is Zhang Rui, indeed very young. Judging from your divine skills just now, you must be a descendant of the Mo family. Now that you've arrived, Cao Dali must have also arrived. Alas! Unfortunately, Gong Wei and I haven't figured out a strategy to defeat the enemy yet." Huangfu Song sighed.

  "Meng De's five thousand iron cavalry have indeed arrived. As for the strategy to break the enemy, I just thought of a good plan while observing the enemy from above, which can lift the siege of Changsha." Zhang Rui closed his mouth and did not mention anything about the Mohist successor.

  "What's going on? Come, little friend, hurry up and enter the account." Huangfu Song pulled Zhang Rui into the big tent.

  "General, it's actually not difficult to defeat the Yellow Turbans. Now is autumn, the weather is dry and the materials are flammable, be careful of fire..."

  Zhang Rui went in for a short while and saw a small bird flying out of the Huangfu Song's camp, directly flying to the distance.

  In the Yellow Turban camp, Bo Cai and Peng Tuo were arguing. Bo Cai wanted to take Yingchuan first, while Peng Tuo wanted to annihilate the relief troops first. Neither of them would give in to the other, after all, they were both marshals, and it was only because they had joined forces to pursue and kill the Han relief troops that they had come together; how could they be as united as one piece of iron?

  "It's on fire! It's on fire!" "Quickly put out the fire!" "General, the big camp is on fire." A messenger said at this time.

  The two men didn't argue anymore, they put on their armor and left the camp. The two men probably regretted it to death now, why did they build the camp next to the grass? There was dry grass everywhere in the camp, and now the fire was spreading all over.

  "Kill!" Indeed, disaster does not come alone; at this time, the Han army killed their way in from outside the camp.

  Bo Zai and Peng Tuo did not say a word to each other, mounted their horses and fled towards the rear.

  At this time, the entire Yellow Turban camp was engulfed in flames, and the whole of Changsha was dyed red.
