Chapter 214 - The Trapped Beast Fights
It was Dong Zhuo who besieged Montenegro and led the army all the way, and Dong Zhuo succeeded Lu Zhi and became the general of Beizhonglang, in order to become famous all over the world.
Dong Zhuo was born with a tiger's back and a very burly figure, not as fat and unbearable as depicted in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Because he knew the direction of future history, Long Xiangtian had no good impression of Dong Zhuo, but before Liu Bei and they had decided to follow Dong Zhuo all the way to attack Montenegro, Long Xiangtian had no choice but to follow, and later met Lu Bu, Long Xiangtian was happy, but also couldn't help but be a little worried. According to the words of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Dong Zhuo later supported troops to control the imperial capital and caused chaos in the dynasty, while Lu Bu became Dong Zhuo's righteous son and became Dong Zhuo's accomplice. Therefore, Long Xiangtian was afraid that Lu Bu would be close to Dong Zhuo now, so Long Xiangtian would say bad things about Dong Zhuo when he had anything, which made Lu Bu full of disgust for Dong Zhuo.
The conquest army stood up at the foot of the mountain and set up a position, but it was surrounded but not frozen, because Dong Zhuo's real purpose was not to conquer Montenegro, but to wait for Zhang Jiao's main Yellow Turban Army who wanted to come here to meet Zhang Yan.
However, after waiting for several days, he did not see Zhang Jiao leading his troops, and after communicating with Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, he learned that the cunning Zhang Jiao did not come to Montenegro to meet Zhang Yan as he originally planned, but divided a part of his troops halfway to lure the conscription army to pursue, while the main force advanced in the direction of Julu under the cover of Zhang Jiao's secret method of thick fog, and successfully escaped the pursuit of the conquest army.
Dong Zhuo was furious, and immediately ordered the expeditionary army to start attacking Montenegro, and the Yellow Turban Army on Montenegro took advantage of the favorable terrain to firmly guard the pass on the mountain, and did not let any of the conquest soldiers enter the mountain.
The conquest army launched a fierce attack on Montenegro, but Montenegro is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, and for a while, the Montenegrin Yellow Turban Army can really be described as a one-man pass, and it is impossible to open it.
As a result, after a few days, the expeditionary army failed to conquer Montenegro, Dong Zhuo knew that the defense of Montenegro was very solid, and it would be useless to spend it here, so he led the army to Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, who were re-pursuing Zhang Jiao's main force, to rendezvous.
After some pursuit, Zhang Jiao finally escaped into Julu County, which disappointed everyone, and couldn't help but sigh that Zhang Jiao was still alive, and he didn't know how long it was still before the final end of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
As a result, the expeditionary army re-surrounded Julu County as it did at the beginning, and it was repeated over and over again, and finally returned to this step, hoping that the plot would not be reversed again. It's a pity that Zhang Jiao is not dead, and he has always been a threat to the conquest army.
Hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, the conquest army attacked day and night, but the high walls of Julu County were thick, and the protective array was unbreakable, and the Yellow Turban Army was holding their last fortress, so that it was unbreakable, there was no way, the conquest army just continued to surround Julu County City, and slowly wore down the morale of the Yellow Turban Army.
In this way, this siege lasted for more than a year, during this period, except for the Yellow Turban Army in Julu County and Montenegro, the Yellow Turban forces in the rest of the regions were all wiped out, and the land of Bazhou gradually returned to calm.
From the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the present, it has been four or five years in a flash, which seems to be a long time, but for monks who have no time to cultivate immortals, it is a very short time, and it may take so much time to close the retreat, plus the cultivators have a long lifespan, and the monks in the ordinary Qi refining period have a lifespan of two hundred years, and the return to the void and the true one can live for tens of thousands of years, this time, for everyone, it is really like a flick of a finger.
The Yellow Turban Army was surrounded by a giant deer, dying and struggling, trapped beasts still fighting, but for a long time, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army is still declining, if there is no possibility of reversal, then the Yellow Turban Army is really not far from the destruction of the city.
After a year-long siege, the protective array of Julu County has already collapsed, and it is all thanks to the resistance of the Yellow Turban soldiers that the conquest army has not been able to capture the city, but the towering city wall has long been riddled with holes, and the destruction of the spirit absorbing array has made it difficult to gather enough spiritual energy for the army to use in Julu County.
And Zhang Jiao himself, is also very sad, was injured by the power of chaos, and consumed his own life energy, to obtain the ability to fight, and open the way for the army, and did not hesitate to attack the soldiers of the conquest army and the princes' coalition army, and finally barely survived to Julu County, but it was almost to the point where the oil ran out, and now a year has passed, Zhang Jiao has not recovered, I don't know whether it is the result of luck to eliminate his own life, or the punishment of heaven for him, Zhang Jiao has reached the point of a kind of medicine and stone in vain, and he will die but not die, such Zhang Jiao, how to fight the world for the Yellow Turban Army again?
Knowing that the deadline was approaching, Zhang Jiao decided to make a final bet, this was the last chance, but if he failed this time, then the number of yellow turban qi would be completely exhausted. So, Zhang Jiao summoned his eight disciples, including Zhang Yan who was sitting in Montenegro, and Zhang Jiao gave them a mysterious pill to take each.
On the same day, Zhang Jiao suppressed the injury, flew into the air, and released his momentum to attract the attention of Yuanying Zhenjun of the expeditionary army.
When Dong Zhuo, Zhu Jun, and Huang Fusong saw this scene, they couldn't help but discuss, they didn't know what Zhang Jiao's move meant, could it be that he had recovered, and he was here to show off his might and deter everyone? Dong Zhuo didn't think so, he felt that Zhang Jiao was returning to the light, and he didn't have the strength to fight at all, so he also flew into the air and slapped Zhang Jiao.
Dong Zhuo slapped his palm, and the majestic palm came overwhelmingly, Zhang Jiao saw this, and he also responded with a palm, and the two of them received the first palm, which was turbulent and shocking for nine days. Zhang Jiao's strength now makes Dong Zhuo shocked, I don't know if Zhang Jiao has recovered his original strength, if this is the case, then even if the three of them join forces, it is still not enough to deal with Zhang Jiao, who can control the power of thunder.
"This time, I didn't come out to do it myself, but I wanted to make a bet with you!" Zhang Jiao said loudly. It still looks neutral.
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Oh, what does the great sage and good teacher want to bet on, what do you bet on, how to bet?"
"Just gamble on the life-and-death battle of the generals under him, and bet on the future of my Yellow Turban forces!" Zhang Jiao said: " If the Yuan infant fights, it is easy to destroy the mountains and rivers, causing the lives to be ruined, which you and I do not want to see, and the soldiers and soldiers fight, and it takes too long, and involves too much, so it is better to let the Jindan generals under their respective hands fight, I send eight people, you also send eight people, and then one-on-one to carry out a decisive battle, and finally see which side wins more, if you win, then I will surrender, there is no need to make the two armies carry out the endless killing, but if we win, I don't make any too unreasonable requests, just ask you to withdraw the army, and you can't attack my Julu City again within three years, you see how it is?”
After listening to Zhang Jiao's words, Dong Zhuo was full of thoughts, and it was difficult to answer for a while, so he secretly communicated with Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song to discuss, and the three of them couldn't understand what kind of medicine Zhang Jiao was selling in the gourd, did he really just want to win a respite for himself? It seems that it is beneficial to the conquest army, even if it loses, it will not suffer much, Zhang Jiao can't beat the ultimate chaos body, and the existing strength of the Yellow Turban Army can no longer compete with the conquest army, after retreating, continue to besiege on the periphery, just surround and not fight, it may not take three years, the Yellow Turban Army will collapse, but if it refuses, not only will the conscription soldiers and soldiers add casualties in vain, but also may have to face Zhang Jiao's anger, after all, Zhang Jiao is a person who does not want to die, and even the soldiers of the conquest army may cause his retaliatory attack. In the end, the three of them thought that the Jindan masters on their side had the ability to defeat the Jindan masters of the Yellow Turban Army, such as Guan Yu, who destroyed Bocai's body, and Long Xiangtian, who defeated Zhang Yan, although they belonged to the righteous army, they were more powerful than their own generals, and they had repeatedly performed miraculous feats, even if they might lose one or two games, the one who won the most in the end must be their own side, so after some discussion, Dong Zhuo agreed to make this bet with Zhang Jiao.
So Zhang Jiao agreed with Dong Zhuo that three days later, outside the city of Julu County, the battlefield of the eight directions would be divided, and each side would send eight Jindan generals to conduct a one-on-one battle of life and death.
Long Xiangtian and the others were very surprised when they heard the news, they didn't expect Zhang Jiao to put on such a gamble, and the eight disciples under him must be the same, but Bo Cai was cut off by Guan Yu at the beginning, and in the end, although the Yuan Shen had to get rid of it, but after taking it, he had to start all over again, and after a few years passed, it should be impossible for Bo Cai to recover his original strength, and I don't know if Zhang Jiao would send Bo Cai to appear at that time. As for the side of the conquest army, in order to ensure the chance of victory, Dong Zhuo and the other three Yuanying Zhenjun decided to send Guan Yu and other righteous soldiers Jin Dan, and Long Xiangtian also decided to be listed, and the specific candidates could be decided by themselves.
The Jindan masters in the list include Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Tai Shici and Long Xiangtian. Liu Bei has both male and female fairy swords, and has the shield of the king of benevolence, and his own strength is also good, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei is as fierce as a dragon and tiger, Qinglong Yanyue knife, Zhang Eight snake spear gun who competes, Zhao Yun thunder immortal body, marksmanship is like a god, Huang Zhong bow god heir, shocking sun bow is unparalleled in the world, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao holds the overlord divine soldier, is bound to write the legend of the overlord again, Taishi Cihu Huang Yan Whip swept the wind and clouds, Long Xiangtian nine belong to the Yuan Force swallowing the sky and the earth, each showing their might, but the quota is only eight people, so many people, who should stay in the army after three days and not fight?
