"Zhou Yu, I ordered you to be the chief general and Chen Qingzhi to be the deputy general, leading 20,000 troops to attack Chuzhou."
On the way, Xu Feng divided his troops and transferred Zhou Yu and Chen Qingzhi to the north to attack the rebel Li Tongde in Chuzhou.
Xu Feng himself took Dian Wei, Bai Qi and others to Luzhou to encircle and suppress the rebel Zhang Zilu.
If it weren't for them, they had more than 50,000 troops just to encircle and suppress only one person, so they would have done a big problem.
Xu Feng's plan was to wait for him to lead the army to eliminate Zhang Zilu in Luzhou and lead the army north to Chuzhou.
At that time, Zhou Yu should be able to destroy Li Tongde from Chuzhou.
Finally, they met in Chuzhou and then went north to eliminate the rebels of Zhang Qixu who were entrenched in Shouzhou area of Huainan County.
At that time, the new tasks released by the system, the task of destroying three rebels could be completed.
Then, Xu Feng led his troops north to return to Dongdu.
In this way, the Sui army divided its troops.
On March 27, Xu Feng led 30,000 Sui troops to Luzhou.
"Report, the traces of rebels were found in front of you."
As soon as he arrived in Luzhou, the scouts sent by Xu Feng would report and find traces of the rebels.
"How many people?"
"About a thousand people."
"Hmm? Only a thousand people?"
Xu Feng was confused.
"Send a cavalry over there, and if it is a rebel, it will be eliminated."
"Yes, your Majesty."
"The army continues to move forward."
Xu Feng did not think that Zhang Zilu would send thousands of rebels to fight him.
The rebels mentioned by the scout just now may be just bandits in this area.
"Report, report back to the cavalry, the cavalry has wiped out the rebels in front of them.
The rebel was not a member of Luzhou, but a bandit in this area.”
Soon, the scouts returned.
"Bring the bandit leader up."
"yes."
Soon, a strong man tied up was taken up by the Sui army soldiers.
"May I have your name?"
Xu Feng looked at the man coldly and asked.
"You are the foolish lord Yang Guang?"
This strong man was quite bold. At this time, he was not timid in facing Xu Feng and asked Xu Feng.
"Bold, you dare to call your Majesty the name directly, are you looking for death!"
Yang Yuanyu yelled from the side.
Xu Feng raised his hand to stop Yang Yuanyu, looked at the person, and said coldly: "That's right, when I see me, I want to bow. Do you choose to bow or not?"
"If I don't worship, will you kill me?"
"meeting."
"Cao Zhendong, see Your Majesty."
This strong man bowed directly to Xu Feng.
"Ha, you're quite conscious of the current affairs."
Xu Feng also felt funny when he saw this.
"Your Majesty, he is not aware of the current affairs, he is afraid of death." Yang Yuanyu said disdainfully.
"What's wrong with fear of death? Are you not afraid of death?"
Cao Zhendong, who was kneeling down, raised his head and questioned Yang Yuanyu with confidence.
"Uh..., of course I'm not afraid of death."
"Who believes it?"
"you……"
Yang Yuanyu was asked, but he didn't know how to answer.
"Okay, I'll ask you, where are you from?" Xu Feng continued to ask Cao Zhendong.
"Go back to Your Majesty, there is a Xingyun Village more than thirty miles south of Luzhou, which is my home."
Cao Zhendong answered honestly.
"Then why are you a bandit? Is it because you can't eat?"
Xu Feng asked.
"No, my family is a large family in Xingyun Village. There are hundreds of acres of fertile land, so how can I not be able to eat?"
"A man was born in troubled times, so of course he had to do something big, otherwise wouldn't he have gone to the world in vain."
Cao Zhendong said passionately.
"Then why don't you rebel directly?"
"You think I'm stupid. If I were a bandit, the government wouldn't have noticed me.
If I rebel, I will inevitably be surrounded and suppressed by the government army. That's so dangerous!"
"Well, what you said made me speechless."
At this time, Xu Feng felt that Cao Zhendong was a strange thing.
"Since your home is nearby, you must have a good understanding of the situation in Luzhou."
"Of course, my brother-in-law is now working under Zhang Zilu's command."
"Oh? Is that?"
When Xu Feng heard Cao Zhendong say this, he immediately became interested.
"Do you know what happened to the traitor Zhang Zilu in Luzhou City recently?"
"Your Majesty, you don't know.
You were in Liyang City and wiped out the anti-army Du Fuwei and led the army over, which scared Zhang Zilu.
In the past two days, Zhang Zilu has been transferring troops from other places to Luzhou, and has forced the young and strong to gather the bandits around him to serve him.
Zhang Zilu promised that any bandits who were willing to lead the army to join him would receive a sum of money and food compensation.
I also received the notice that I was just about to take more than a thousand brothers under my command to join Zhang Zilu, but I was encountered by Your Majesty's army."
"So that's how it is."
Xu Feng's eyes became brighter at this time. When he met Cao Zhendong, Xu Feng was keenly able to find a way to defeat Luzhou.
Otherwise, if Zhang Zilu really defended Luzhou, even if the Sui army attacked for forcing him, it would probably have to pay a considerable price of casualties.
Therefore, if you can get smart, you will never attack hard.
"Cao Zhendong, you also said that a real man should do something big.
Now, I will give you a chance to do big things.
If you can help me, conquer Luzhou City and eliminate the rebel Zhang Zilu, I will grant you the position of Luzhou County Magistrate, how about?"
Xu Feng looked at Cao Zhendong and said.
"Your Majesty is serious?"
Cao Zhendong was also very happy after hearing this.
"certainly."
"The grass-roots are willing to serve the court, of course they are better than being a thief, I'll do it!"
"Very good, you're like this..."
Afterwards, Xu Feng told Cao Zhendong about his plan.
Half a day later, Cao Zhendong led more than a thousand Sui soldiers to leave and head to Lujiang City.
