Chapter 12: Pacifying the Yellow Turban (3)

After the official army suddenly died down, Zhang Liang in Guangzong County suspected that the emperor was cheating, so he ordered the whole army to monitor the movements of the official army day and night.

After a few days like this, there was still no movement from the officers and soldiers, and the Yellow Turban soldiers who were on the surveillance mission suddenly felt slack, after all, it was too tiring to tense their nerves all the time.

After Zhang Liang found out that the soldiers were starting to be lazy, he did not accuse, because even he himself felt that the official army should not attack the county seat again.

As the Yellow Turban soldiers slackened off, Huangfu Song took advantage of the night to secretly dispatch Wang Kai's troops around the north gate of Guangzong County.

After meeting with Huangfu Song, Wang Kai immediately said to him: "Master, your plan has worked!" The Yellow Turban Thieves have completely lost their vigilance. ”

"Xinhao, when the city is broken, it will be today, and you will lead your troops to attack the city tower."

"The last general obeys!"

Immediately after, Wang Kai asked Qin Qiong to lead his troops to launch a surprise attack towards the north gate of Guangzong County.

After setting up the ladder, Qin Qiong took the lead and led the soldiers to climb up.

Halfway through, the patrolling Yellow Turban soldiers finally spotted the traces of the officers and soldiers and sounded the alarm bell of the enemy attack.

Seeing that her whereabouts were exposed, Qin Qiong sped up her climbing.

After a while, Qin Qiong took the lead in ascending the city tower.

Seeing that some of the officers and soldiers had climbed the city tower, the Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the city immediately surrounded Qin Qiong.

Seeing this, Qin Qiong fought without fear.

Just after fighting for a while, dozens of corpses of the Yellow Turban Army appeared around Qin Qiong.

The rest of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers saw that Qin Qiong was like a killing god, and they all looked at it timidly from afar.

Taking advantage of Qin Qiong's attention to most of the Yellow Turban thieves, the officers and soldiers under Wang Kai's command climbed the city tower one after another.

As the officers and soldiers continued to ascend the city, the Yellow Turban soldiers defending the city retreated before they could wait for reinforcements.

Qin Qiong immediately led a part of the soldiers and horses to open the north city gate.

Seeing that the city gate had been opened, Huangfu Song and Wang Kai entered the city with the rest of the soldiers and horses.

Besides, when Zhang Liang learned that the north gate was attacked, he led his troops to rush to help, but halfway through he learned that the north gate had been broken.

Zhang Liang, who knew that he was not an opponent of the official army, immediately ordered the whole army to withdraw in the direction of Quyang County.

After receiving Zhang Liang's military order, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army immediately withdrew in the direction of Xiaquyang County.

When Huangfu Song saw the Yellow Turban Army fleeing without a fight, he quickly guessed Zhang Liang's careful thoughts.

Immediately after, Huangfu Song called Wang Kai to his side and said to him: "Xinhao, Zhang Liang wants to flee to Xiaquyang County, if Zhang Liang leads his troops to join his brother Zhang Bao, it will be difficult for our army to completely pacify the Yellow Turban thieves, you and quickly lead the Sanhe cavalry to block Zhang Liang's way, and I personally lead the army to pursue Zhang Liang." ”

"The last general obeys!"

After Wang Kai received the order, he immediately ordered 3,000 cavalry and began to march in a hurry.

And Huangfu Song led the main force of infantry to cover up the Yellow Turban thieves all the way.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army first lost the backbone of Zhang Jiao, and then lost the stronghold of Guangzong County, and their morale had fallen to the bottom, and when they faced the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, they could not raise any sense of resistance at all, and as a result, the battlefield became a one-sided massacre.

Zhang Liang saw that the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, although he was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do, because the quality of the individual soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army was far inferior to that of the elite of the official army.

The officers and soldiers pursued all the way for a day, and the cavalry team led by Wang Kai finally rushed to the retreat of the Yellow Turban Army and waited in formation.

When Zhang Liang saw the Han cavalry on the road ahead, his heart suddenly became ashes.

And after Wang Kai saw Zhang Liang's subordinates appear, he immediately raised his gun and shouted: "All the soldiers obey the order and follow me to kill the enemy." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wang Kai took the lead, Qin Qiong followed, and the soldiers of the cavalry team followed the two to charge.

The resounding sound of horses' hooves suddenly became the last straw that crushed the Yellow Turban Army.

In an instant, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army began to scatter and flee, and no matter how Zhang Liang shouted, the soldiers under his command did not react.

After a while, Wang Kai and Qin Qiong led their troops to rush into the Yellow Turban Formation and slaughtered them.

Seeing that the momentum of the official army's charge was unstoppable, Zhang Liang suddenly fled alone.

Seeing that Zhang Liang wanted to escape, Wang Kai immediately shouted: "Uncle Bao, the thief is going to escape, you go and take Zhang Liang quickly." ”

After Qin Qiong got the order, he immediately turned around and rushed towards Zhang Liang.

Because Qin Qiong's horse was fast, Zhang Liang rode his horse and was caught up by Qin Qiong before he could escape far.

Seeing Zhang Liang's figure getting closer and closer, Qin Qiong suddenly shouted: "The thief will leave!" Uncle Qin Baolai also! ”

Hearing the loud cry that was close at hand, Zhang Liang looked back in surprise.

At this moment, Qin Qiong's spear slashed through Zhang Liang's neck, and he saw Zhang Liang's head suddenly rise to the sky.

After killing Zhang Liang, Qin Qiong immediately raised his gun and shouted: "Zhang Liang is dead, why don't you return quickly?" Hearing Qin Qiong's shout, the Yellow Turban soldiers immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

At the same time, Huangfu Song led his troops to finally kill and joined forces with the cavalry team led by Wang Kai.

After seeing Huangfu Song, Wang Kai immediately said to him: "Master, the thief Zhang Liang has been killed by Qin Qiong, the soldier under the command of the apprentice, and the Yellow Turban thief Kou can no longer become an atmosphere. ”

"Very good! Now that Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang are dead, and the Yellow Turban Thief Kou has also been greatly injured, just waiting to take Zhang Bao in Quyang County, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will be completely over. ”

Hearing Huangfu Song's sigh, Wang Kai did not express any opinion, because he knew very well in his heart that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was only the beginning of the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, and the situation after that would only be more complicated than the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and he couldn't wait to find a place to stand and wait for the situation to change.

After pacifying Zhang Liang's army, Huangfu Song immediately led his troops back to Guangzong County, and sent people to dig up Zhang Jiao's body, and then cut off Zhang Jiao's head to prepare for sending it to Jingshi.

After learning that Huangfu Song was going to send someone to Beijing, Wang Kai immediately took the initiative to ask Huang Fu Song for help.

Huangfu Song saw that Wang Kai took the initiative to transport Zhang Jiao's head, and he immediately asked: "Xinhao, the Yellow Turban Thief Kou still has Zhang Bao's remnants, why do you want to leave the battlefield at this time?" If you leave at this time, you will be a little less meritorious. ”

"Master, the apprentice is still young, don't worry about not having the opportunity to obtain military merits, if you are promoted too quickly, it is inevitable that you will not be hated, at this time, if the apprentice replaces the master and sends Zhang Jiao's head back to Beijing, on the one hand, you can publicize the great achievements of the master, on the other hand, the apprentice can also devote himself to studying the art of war and continue to grow."

After carefully scrutinizing Wang Kai's words, Huangfu Song stroked his beard and replied: "It's okay, Xinhao, your idea is right, now that the eunuch power is in power, even Lord Lu Zhilu has been persecuted, although you have now become my Huangfu Song's apprentice, it is difficult to fight those eunuchs, the military merits at this time are enough for you to be awarded the title of a county guard, you go to sharpen it alone will also help you grow, I will leave the task of escort to you." ”

"Thank you, master, for making it perfect!"

Subsequently, Wang Kai asked Qin Qiong to order a battalion of soldiers and horses.

After the soldiers were assembled, Wang Kai immediately escorted Zhang Jiao's head towards Luoyang City.
