When Cao Cao heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Sir, they must be worried that adventurers will cause trouble in the city again. But if we set some rules, they won't dare to do that."
"Okay. Let's discuss it then."
Now Fengyun began to talk about his thoughts incessantly.
"Sir, how about we allow adventurers to move freely in the city for one hour, but they are not allowed to kill or rape women."
"Will this lead to He Jin reporting me?"
"Sir, we are just talking about free activities, and besides, we asked them to stop messing around."
Fengyun had said so much, and the three of them smiled at each other.
"That's settled then. I've brought enough heavy crossbows this time to suppress the defenders on the city walls. Adventurers, you can attack without worry."
"Your Excellency is wise! This will encourage the adventurers to charge forward even harder."
"Hahaha, this is a siege weapon I specially requested. The court doesn't have many on hand."
Fengyun was coveting the heavy crossbows, as they could deal a greater blow to the city defenders' confidence than catapults.
Imagine that countless thick arrows are flying down from the sky, covering the city walls without any blind spots. No one can resist this kind of fear.
At this time, the one-handed shields in their hands were completely unable to resist.
As long as they raised their one-handed shields, they would be pierced by the arrows and then penetrate their bodies.
Unless the defenders have a double heavy shield specifically for defending against heavy crossbows.
The three of them had been discussing the strategy for the next day in the big tent until 8 o'clock in the evening, when the system began to broadcast.
"Ding! The Battle of Julu begins at 8:00 AM tomorrow. Players are welcome to participate. When the city is captured, you are allowed to move freely for one hour, but you are not allowed to kill or rape women. You are only allowed to kill the Yellow Turban rebels."
When the players first heard about it, they didn't take it seriously, but some of them started complaining.
"What do you mean? Are there no mission rewards? Just free activities? What's the point? If you can't rape women, then can men?"
"Fuck! You're stupid. Don't you understand the meaning of free movement plus killing the Yellow Turban rebels? Aside from not molesting women, we have the final say on who to kill. Isn't this just asking us to rob the rich in the city?"
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that? When I think about it carefully, it's really like that. No, then we must go to the city early tomorrow, otherwise we won't even be able to eat hot shit."
"No one can compete with me tomorrow. I want to be the first one to reach the city wall."
This statement was simply ignored by the others. Who wouldn't want to get into the city early?
It's too late to get any good stuff.
Fengyun recommended Zhu Jun to carry out this task because he understood the players' thoughts.
This mission did not require Zhu Jun to provide anything extra. Besides, Julu had been controlled by the Yellow Turban Army for more than a year, and a large number of people inside must have been in cahoots with them. The worst that could happen was that they would have to carry out another major purge.
This is not a bad thing for the court, and it will not bring him any bad reputation.
Even if the matter gets out of hand in the end, it's none of his business since it wasn't done by the troops he controlled.
Zhu Jun and Cao Cao agreed almost at the same time.
At this time, Zhang Bao was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth constantly.
"General, the imperial court has besieged the city so many times that we simply cannot sustain it."
"Keep going!"
"No, that won't work. After many of our important Yellow Turban generals disappeared while rescuing General Tiangong, our territory has been drastically reduced. The area we currently control can't sustain Julu all year round."
"Where is General Ren Gong?"
"I've asked them for help several times, but they haven't responded."
"Zhang Liang, my brother is already in trouble, and you haven't offered me a helping hand. Are you going to watch me die?"
Zhang Bao closed his eyes helplessly. At this moment, he had no way to order Zhang Liang to do anything.
At this time, the Yellow Turban Army was basically divided into three camps. One was following him, another was his brother's faction, and the other was Zhang Mancheng's faction.
Their strongest generals had always been Zhang Jue's followers, but now they have all disappeared.
Today, the Yellow Turban camp is fighting on its own, or to put it nicely, it is a three-way stand.
However, this three-way balance of power is very fragile. As long as one city is captured, the other two will be in constant fear.
I don’t know why, but Zhang Liang and Zhang Mancheng are doing well so far.
Huangfu Song was only slowly encroaching on their territory around them and had no plans to besiege Yingchuan for the time being.
Only Zhang Bao didn't know what bad luck he had, as he was always besieged by the imperial generals.
It’s not that the two of them didn’t want to help Zhang Bao, but they really didn’t have the ability to do so.
To maintain such a large number of troops in the Yellow Turban Army, a lot of money and food is needed.
But now the territory and population are getting smaller and smaller, which means that there is less and less money and food.
The two of them are now struggling and have no way to support Zhang Bao.
This was actually a plan between Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi.
This plan is a naked conspiracy.
It was just that Lu Zhi was framed, and Dong Zhuo was generally aware of their plan and strongly agreed with it.
But he acted too hastily, and with Liu Hong's urging, he ended up tying himself up in trouble.
At this time, it depends on who can hold out more, the imperial court or the Yellow Turban Army.
From now on, it seems that the Yellow Turban Army still does not have the strength to hold its own against the imperial court.
After two changes of coach, Liu Hong completely stopped caring about it.
Only then were the two able to realize their plan.
Now we are entering the final stage, and this time we must make sure everything goes perfectly.
Otherwise, the court’s prestige will be completely lost.
After discussing with Zhu Cao, Feng Yun took Lan Yu and the Black Dragon Cavalry and circled Julu City in the dark.
"My lord, are you sure they will escape through this path?"
Fengyun nodded and said with certainty:
"Yes, as long as they can't hold on any longer, they will definitely break out from here."
Fengyun brought them here to ambush Zhang Bao under the cover of night and wait for him to escape.
In his previous life, after the defeat at Julu, Zhang Bao escaped with his elite troops through this path.
Since Fengyun has come this time, we must stop him.
As for whether he can be kept, it depends on whether Lan Yu's Black Dragon Cavalry is strong enough.
His suggestion this time was not only to help Zhu Jun preserve his strength, but also to attract the players' attention and make them set their sights on the property in the city.
As for Zhang Bao, leave it to him to deal with.
Although Fengyun knew that Zhang Bao ran away from this path, he was not familiar with it.
After they had walked for a long time, they finally chose a place behind a small hill that was slightly higher.
It is not only easy to hide here, but also good for charging.
