Chapter Forty-Nine: Repeating the Old Trick

After Zhu Jun led the people and Qin Jie to separate, he led 20,000 horses and horses to quickly kill Xinye City.

Xinye Castle is not very famous now, but it is also the important place of Nanyang County, it is the fortress of Xiangyang, if you want to go to Xiangyang, Xinye Castle is a more lively road.

Historically, Liu Bei once led troops to be stationed in Xinye, and it was at this time that Xu Shu went to seek refuge with Liu Bei.

But now, it is just a small city that is not too famous, and here, Peng Tuo, one of the commanders of the Yellow Turban Army, is stationed.

Peng Tuo's strength is not bad in the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army, with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

After occupying Xinye City, it can be regarded as a force, but after Zhu Jun's men arrived in Xinye, Peng Tuo understood that he was nothing at all.

Zhu Jun's 20,000 people, it only took half a day to break through the gate of Xinye City and enter the city.

Peng Tuo escaped from the other gates, but the Yellow Turbans under his command were not so lucky.

Most of the soldiers and horses were killed by Zhu Jun's men, and only a small number escaped from the other city gates with Peng Tuo.

After Zhu Jun killed the Yellow Turban Army under Peng Tuo, he successfully recovered Xinye City, and then did not stay in Xinye City for long, and then led the army directly to Wancheng.

When they arrived in Wancheng, in fact, not long after Zhao Hong's talent returned to Wancheng, Wancheng closed the city gate, and the surrounding city walls were all in full array, because Zhao Hong also knew that the official army would come over in other places at any time.

After Zhu Jun surrounded Wancheng, he did not surround the entire Wancheng city walls, but surrounded some of the city gates, and deliberately left some city gates, so that the Yellow Turban Army in the city could be afraid to flee and reduce the pressure on him to kill the Yellow Turban Army.

After Sun Zhong chatted with Zhao Hong about the results of Liu Zheng and the others' discussions, although Zhao Hong had many concerns in his heart, he didn't want to miss a great opportunity to defeat Zhu Jun at this time.

If Zhang Mancheng was still there, Zhang Mancheng might not agree to Liu Zheng's style of play, but Zhao Hong is different, Zhao Hong is a person who doesn't have much brains, he was born as a farmer, he is not proficient in marching and fighting, and most of the time he is just listening to other people's opinions.

Therefore, Liu Zheng's opinion reached Zhao Hong's mouth, and Zhao Hong naturally did not refuse.

In this way, Zhao Hong ordered Sun Zhong to lead the soldiers and horses of Wancheng out of the city to fight against Zhu Jun's 20,000 officers and soldiers.

In Wancheng, throwing away the more than 20,000 people brought by Sun Zhong, there are nearly 100,000 horses and horses, and there are 1120,000 soldiers and horses.

Although it was difficult for these Yellow Turban troops to deal with Zhu Jun's soldiers and horses one-on-one on the battlefield, they were several times larger than the enemy army, and they were still able to rely on the advantage of being large enough to show some of their own momentum.

Under several attacks, although Sun Zhong did not take advantage of Zhu Jun's face, he also blocked Zhu Jun, so that Zhu Jun could not break Wancheng, and he was in a dilemma for a while.

In the battle between the two sides, the Yellow Turban Army consumed tens of thousands of people, and Zhu Jun's side also lost a lot of people, but they did not take any advantage.

Moreover, Sun Zhong had the previous agreement with Liu Zheng, knowing that he could not win, he still led the soldiers and horses of the Yellow Turban Army to charge, and after several fights, the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army's fighting increased instead of decreasing, and the more fierce he fought.

And Zhu Jun's side, because of the long-term fighting, he rushed to Xinye City non-stop, and he didn't have much rest along the way, although the soldiers and horses under his command were not tired and tired, but they didn't have much will to fight.

Instinctively, it's at a disadvantage.

Zhu Jun also pinned his hopes on Qin Jie, who rushed over from Caiyang City.

After all, according to the time he had agreed with Qin Jie before, Qin Jie's army at this time should have almost come from the direction of Caiyang City.

This is also why Zhu Jun has been closely defending the attack of the Yellow Turban Army in Wancheng, and has not thought of retreating temporarily.

Soon, the sound of some soldiers and horses came from the direction of Cai Yangcheng, and Zhu Jun finally showed a long-lost smile.

"Lord Zhu Jun, our spies said that tens of thousands of horses came from the direction of Caiyang, wearing the costumes of the official army, it should be Qin Jie's people!"

At this time, Xu Xuan hurriedly walked towards Zhu Jun's side, he found out the news, and immediately said a word to Zhu Jun.

Zhu Jun was worried at this time, how to deal with the Yellow Turban Army that kept rushing out, and after hearing Xu Xuan's words, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Great, this guy Qin Jie is finally here, I've been waiting for him for a long time, as long as his soldiers and horses arrive, we will be able to launch a counterattack against this wave of yellow turban thieves, and it will be easy to kill those thieves when the time comes."

Zhu Jun immediately cheered up and began to publicize the news to the generals around him, so as to cheer up people's hearts and stabilize the impetuous military spirit.

Not long after Xu Xuan passed the news to Zhu Jun, a group of people wearing official and military clothes appeared in the direction of Caiyang City.

These horses rushed straight towards Zhu Jun's location.

And Zhu Jun glanced at it from a distance, and after seeing these people who looked like officials and soldiers, he immediately became excited, and began to increase the charge of the soldiers and horses under his command to block the yellow turban thieves who kept rushing out of Wancheng.

The soldiers and horses of the two sides fought together, and the battle became more and more intense.

Zhu Jun originally had some men and horses guarding him, but because of the attack of Qin Jie's army, he sent all the soldiers and horses to deal with the Yellow Turban thieves in Wancheng, so there were not many soldiers and horses around Zhu Jun at this time.

And he thought that after Qin Jiejun gradually approached him, he would directly join the battle against the Yellow Turban Thieves, but he didn't expect that as soon as these 'reinforcements' appeared, they would directly attack Zhu Jun's location.

The Yellow Turban Army, who was wearing official and military clothes, directly drew his sword under the leadership of Zhou Cang and slashed at the officers and soldiers around him. Those officers and soldiers thought that their teammates were coming, and they were defenseless at all.

For a while, there were screams one after another, and hundreds of people around Zhu Jun were killed in an instant.

The sudden rebellion made Zhu Jun's eyes immediately turn back from the front, and he didn't even understand what was going on, so he only saw these 'reinforcements', killing the personal soldiers under his command, and in the blink of an eye, he killed some of the personal soldiers around him, and thousands of people rushed to his base camp to surround him, looking to surround him.

At this time, Zhu Jun realized something, and immediately warned the people around him.

"No, these people are not Qin Jie's centaurs, they are Yellow Turban thieves!"

Zhu Jun shouted, wanting to remind the soldiers and horses around him, so that the remaining few men and horses could fight against these yellow turban thieves who pretended to be officials and soldiers.
