Chapter 173 - Abandon the city and flee

No one expected that it would be such a result, the originally powerful Bocai was defeated like this, this is the first time that someone has defeated him with the strength of one person, not only defeated, but also killed the other party.

But what is even more surprising is that Bo Cai's body collapsed, and he was still able to burst out of his Jindan Yuan Shen from it.

I saw that Bocai's Jindan Yuan Shen was wrapped in a pale golden rune paper, and it must have been this miraculous rune paper that kept Bocai's Jindan.

The moment Bocai's Jin Dan came out of his body, he stopped in the air, as if he was staring at Guan Yu fiercely, and then suddenly flew away and disappeared into the city.

At this time, Guan Yu's body fell suddenly.

"Second brother (third brother, second brother Guan)!"

Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Long Xiangtian hurriedly shouted to check Guan Yu's condition before going into battle. After careful investigation, it was found that Guan Yu just had too much loss of true yuan, and the side effects of the "Innate Divine Beast Technique" caused him to faint suddenly.

"Haha! I really didn't expect the second brother to be able to defeat Bo Cai, it's really happy!" Zhang Fei laughed.

"What's the matter? Third Brother Zhang still doesn't believe that Second Brother Guan's strength is not successful?" Long Xiangtian asked with a smile.

"Haha! Believe, why don't you believe it, it's worthy of my second brother, and we don't even know that he has such a powerful trick hidden. Zhang Fei said with a smile.

"It must be that the second brother has not been created for a long time, and he hasn't used it yet, so he didn't know how powerful it is, so he didn't tell us. Liu Bei said.

Long Xiangtian said with a smile: "Isn't Bocai known as the No. 1 Jindan? Second Brother Guan defeated Bocai, wouldn't he become the rightful No. 1 Jindan!"

"Haha! That's right, the second brother is the first in Jindan!"

Bocai was defeated, his body was destroyed, and the morale of the Yellow Turban Army plummeted, Zhu Jun and Cai Mao took advantage of this great opportunity to order the coalition army to start attacking the city.

"What, the second brother defeated Bocai, even if there is no reward, they won't come to comfort a few words!" Zhang Fei complained.

Liu Bei said: "Third brother, now is a good time to attack the city, and it is natural to take care of us, let's send the second brother to the camp tent and let the second brother have a good rest!"

So the three of them carried Guan Yu into the camp tent to recuperate.

The coalition army was taking advantage of the low morale of the Yellow Turban Army to step up the attack on Wancheng, but Liu Bei and the others were idle, so they began to chat.

"Xiangtian, how are you doing in the City Lord's Mansion, is it difficult for the Cai clan to be for you?" Liu Bei asked Long Xiangtian.

"I'm fine, with Uncle Liu here, they don't dare to treat me like this, I want Brother Bei to care about you. Long Xiangtian said with a smile.

Liu Bei sighed: "Alas, Xiangtian, you don't know, in fact, our northern gods are also not satisfactory, I thought that with my identity as a member of the Han family, I would definitely be able to find a good official position in the imperial capital, who knows that the official positions are controlled by those families, I am empty ambition and have no way to serve the country, and then the yellow scarf chaos, came to Youzhou, and fought in various places, so that there is such an achievement today." ”

After listening to Liu Bei's story, Long Xiangtian was also quite emotional, when Liu Bei and they left Jingzhou for the imperial capital, Long Xiangtian felt that they might hit a wall, but the result was that Liu Bei and they couldn't get in touch with the alliance leader at all, and the identity of the declining Han clan didn't play any role at all, the key is that Liu Bei's name has not even been entered into the Han clan genealogy, and then thinking about Liu Bei's encounter in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", you can imagine how unlucky Liu Bei is.

Long Xiangtian suddenly felt that Liu Bei had many disasters from the beginning, such as his parents died when he was a child, his family declined, and after cultivating immortal arts, he encountered the ghost spirit after he went down the mountain, and then he was imprisoned, and experienced the invasion of the Yuan Beast, he thought that after Penglai returned, he would be able to leap into the Dragon Gate, but he was almost killed by Mrs. Cai, and was chased and killed by Cai Mao's troops. But after thinking about it, although Liu Bei had many disasters and difficulties, he could also turn danger into disaster everywhere, proving that Liu Bei was indeed destined to return, and the big men who could compete with Cao Cao and Sun Quan in the future would not die in these small disasters. Long Xiangtian couldn't help but think: If Jiuding can really increase people's luck and bring good luck, I will give Zhongtianding to Brother Bei, I don't know if he will have a better life in the future?

In the end, Liu Bei said that the general trend of the Yellow Turban had gone, and the Jingbei Yellow Turban was about to be defeated, and asked Long Xiangtian what his plans were.

"Of course I'm following Brother Bei you!" Long Xiangtian said: "Although the Yellow Turban in Jingbei is about to perish, the Yellow Turban base camp has not yet been breached, and the future battlefield is in Jizhou.

Seeing that Long Xiangtian wanted to go out with him, Liu Bei was naturally very happy, after all, having Long Xiangtian was a great help to himself, and Liu Bei thought that Long Xiangtian's strength should not be inferior to Tai Shici.

"By the way, how are the two brothers Liao Hua and Wu Dun?" Liu Bei asked.

Long Xiangtian said: "The eldest brother and the second brother are very good, they have reached the realm of foundation building, and they originally wanted to help me, but I think the battlefield is too dangerous, and with their strength in the foundation building period, they can't help at all, so I didn't let them come." ”

In the days that followed, the coalition forces continued to attack Wancheng, where the Yellow Turban Army was entrenched, day and night, to wear down their protective array. The Yellow Turban Army could never have imagined that they would one day be beaten by the official army when they attacked the city like this.

In the attack of the coalition army, the city protection array trembled, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time, and now, everyone knew that the Yellow Turban Army was gone, and Zhang Mancheng saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.

"Master, the official army is attacking urgently, the second brother has been physically destroyed, and our territory in Jingbei is in danger, please tell the disciple what to do!" Looking at the dense coalition forces attacking the city below, Zhang Mancheng couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly, at this time, a white flying talisman flew from a distance, breaking through Wancheng's protective array in a blink of an eye, but did not cause any damage to the large array, Zhang Mancheng was surprised, and actually recognized that this flying talisman was a message from his master, the great sage and good teacher, so he hurriedly opened it, only to see that it was written:

Tonight will appear Tengu swallowing the moon, the monk's divine consciousness will be disturbed by this, take this opportunity, take the second Jindan Yuan God quickly away from Wancheng, come to Julu to see me.

Seeing Master's summons, Zhang Mancheng was surprised and delighted, surprised that Master was far away in Jizhou, and he actually knew everything about the matter here, but he had to obey Master's orders, abandon 200,000 soldiers, and flee with Bocai's Jindan, Zhang Mancheng was not reconciled, and couldn't help but say to himself: "Master! There are 200,000 of our comrades here! Do you really bear to abandon it like this? It's not that the disciple doesn't listen to Master, the disciple is willing to die in battle rather than abandon the soldier and flee!"

But seeing a few more lines of words appear on the flying talisman, Zhang Mancheng hurriedly checked it, and wrote:

Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, as long as you are still there, there are yellow turbans everywhere.

Come back soon! I miss you for the teacher.

Seeing this, Zhang Mancheng couldn't help but burst into tears, knowing that the master had not forgotten them, did not blame them for losing the war, and was still heartbroken for them, and finally Zhang Mancheng dried his tears with great luck, so as not to let others notice, Zhang Mancheng said to the sky very solemnly: "Master, don't worry, the apprentice will come back with the second brother soon!"

That night, the coalition forces were recuperating and waiting for the siege again tomorrow. At this moment, the sky suddenly became extremely dark, and many soldiers came out of the camp to watch, only to find that the phenomenon of the tengu swallowing the moon had occurred.

"It turns out that there is also a total lunar eclipse in this world!" Long Xiangtian said to himself as he looked at the moon that was about to be engulfed by a black shadow.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind Long Xiangtian and said, "Total lunar eclipse?"

Long Xiangtian was startled, turned around and looked back, only to find that it was Liu Bei who spoke.

Long Xiangtian said: "It turned out to be Brother Bei, scared me to death, how can you ...... Hey, no, I didn't even notice Brother Bei's arrival just now, why didn't my divine sense work?"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "You don't know about this! Every time the phenomenon of the dog swallowing the moon happens, our monk's divine consciousness will be confused, causing us to be unable to conduct divine sense exploration. ”

"I see, no wonder I didn't inform Brother Bei of your arrival just now. Long Xiangtian said.

"Xiangtian, you just said that the Tengu swallowing the moon is a total lunar eclipse, I don't know if this is from the description in that ancient book?" Liu Bei asked.

"Ahh......h I forgot, hehe!" Long Xiangtian laughed awkwardly.

The tengu swallowed the moon, it was dark at night, and the fire of the coalition army was not too bright, so Zhang Mancheng wanted to escape at this time, and the people of the coalition army would never know.

"Tiangu swallows the moon, the master is really like a god!" Zhang Mancheng, who had already left the city, looked at Wancheng and then at the coalition army, and couldn't help sighing and sighing, and finally relented, and abandoned the city and fled with Bocai's Jindan Yuanshen.

The next day, no one knew that the leader of the Yellow Turban had fled, the coalition army continued to attack Wancheng, and the Yellow Turban Army continued to defend Wancheng, although some Yellow Turban generals were puzzled by Zhang Mancheng's disappearance, but they still felt that Zhang Mancheng should be thinking about countermeasures, who would have thought that he would abandon the city and flee.

After another six days, Wancheng's protective array has already collapsed, although the Yellow Turban Army desperately defended, but in the face of the strong attack of the coalition army, in the end it was still unable to hold, finally, Wancheng was broken, because the Yellow Turban leader had abandoned the city and fled, resulting in the Yellow Turban Army could not organize an effective counterattack, unable to repel the coalition forces that entered the city, and in the end, a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers died in battle, blood flowed like a river, and countless Yellow Turban soldiers surrendered, waiting for Zhu Jun and Cai Mao's disposal.

In the face of the pawns, Cai Mao's opinion is to kill them all, so as not to have endless troubles, but after all, this is 200,000 lives, and if they are all killed, Zhu Jun hesitated, and Liu Bei thought that most of these Yellow Turban soldiers originally belonged to ordinary immortals outside the city, and those who had to rebel because of the imbalance of vitality should leave a way for them to live, instead of killing them all. In the end, Zhu Jun was worried that killing so many people would be punished by heaven and make him hopeless, so he did not agree with Cai Mao's approach, but only killed some Yellow Turban generals, and how should these soldiers be disposed of? Neither can they be killed, nor can they be let go like this, Zhu Jun had no choice but to use these soldiers as pawns of the expeditionary army, as cannon fodder in front of the expeditionary army.

At this point, the Yellow Turban forces in Jingbei were eradicated in less than a month, and at the same time, the East Route Army also came with good news, due to the help of the forces of Yangzhou counties, especially Sun Jian, the East Route Expeditionary Army led by Huangfu Song successfully defeated the Yellow Turban guerrilla general Bu Ji and the Baihai general Guan Hai, and is now clearing the remnants of the Yellow Turban forces in Qing, Xu and other places.
