Tian Yi had previously fought with this person when Dong Zhuo hit Guangzong's Yellow Turban, and suffered a small loss. Since he joined the army, he has fought in the north and south, whether it is to fight the rebels or suppress the civil unrest, he has almost never been defeated, so although he only suffered a small loss, he still remembers this person vividly, and he recognized him from a few miles away.

"Oh? Tian Jun recognizes him? ”

"There are not many thieves who use lances, and there is only one person who uses lances and black armor, black horses, and fierce eagles."

Compared with the big axe, the horse lance is more difficult, and it is more difficult to use, in the cavalry of the Han army is a weapon second only to the horse halberd, and the same as the horse halberd, there is no long-term practice, and it is difficult to use it as desired. It is also not easy to use the horse lance, so most of the people who dare to use this thing are brave and skilled, and they are enough to be the courage of an army and a battalion. This Zhangba Zuo Leopard is one such person.

I saw him gallop out of the camp, urging the horse to gallop into the flank of Liu's lieutenant department, although he only brought more than ten horses, the impact of thousands of enemies was like entering a no-man's land, brave and unmatched, swinging his sword, galloping into the formation, the Han soldiers could not be controlled, and the formation was chaotic. Captain Liu was in a hurry, and hurriedly transferred seven or eight crossbowmen over, and shot arrows at them.

The random arrow did not hit the Zhangba Left Leopard, but it hit the forehead of a Yellow Turban knight who was following the horse of the Zhangba Left Leopard.

The knight of the yellow turban pulled himself out with his backhand, threw away the arrow, and the skin of the wound hung down to block his eyes, and then tore off the wounded skin, and the blood flowed all over his face, and he did not wipe it, so he turned his horse and urged him to ride, and went straight to the crossbowman who had stolen the arrow. Where had those crossbowmen seen such a brave man? Frightened, he threw away his bow and crossbow and fled.

There were too many Han soldiers in front, and the yellow turban knight couldn't catch up, so he took out his waist sword and threw it violently, and the waist sword flew over the head of the Han soldier who was blocking the way, and hit the back of an escaped crossbowman, and the crossbowman screamed in pain and fell headlong. The knight laughed, turned his horse back, caught up with the leopard, and continued to fight.

In front of the formation, there were yellow turban wrestlers with meat and axes, and there were invincible yellow turban horsemen in the formation.

Witnessing the bravery of Guangzong's yellow turbans and the lack of courage among the generals in the tower, Huangfu Song snorted freely, smiled and said left and right: "Fight in several counties, only this is the small Jizhou Xiaojiao." ”

He sat firmly in the watchtower, calmly ordered, and ordered the infantry outside the camp to attack and respond to Captain Liu's department.

The Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan, Runan, Dongjun and other places is fighting for its own time, and the Jizhou Yellow Turban has been unified by Zhang Jiao, and it is not difficult to select some dead soldiers and warriors from hundreds of thousands of Jizhou Yellow Turbans, so compared with the Yellow Turbans in Yingchuan and other places, Zhang Jiao's troops seem to be brave and brave. If you think about it, if the Yellow Turbans of Yingchuan, Runan, and Dongjun also join forces like Jizhou, and Bocai, He Man, Peng Tuo, Gong Du, He Yi, Liu Pi, Wu Ba, Bu Ji and others gather in one army, then it will be difficult to deal with.

Liu's lieutenant headquarters was defeated and fled, although the infantry and cavalry outside the Han barracks were in a hurry to respond to the order, they were a little far away in the end, and by the time the response arrived, most of the three or four thousand Han soldiers had been lost.

Seeing that the infantry cavalry of the Han soldiers arrived, the pursuing Yellow Turban soldiers did not pursue anymore and returned to the camp with a great victory.

At this time, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong also watched the battle, and they were not qualified to climb the watchtower and watch the battle near the camp gate.

Guan Yu was arrogant, coldly looking at the team in chaos and returning from defeat, and said disdainfully: "The Yellow Turban thieves are only hundreds of dead soldiers, more than 100 elite horsemen, and I alone are enough to kill them, what a good way!" If I am here today, I will win. ”

Zhang Fei also pouted and said: "There are thousands of people under his command, but he can't help the hundreds of dead soldiers and more than 50 elite horsemen of the thieves, but they were broken into formation, and the five schools of the Northern Army are guarding Kyoto, and they are famous, but this Captain Liu is such a brave man!" ”

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu as Liu Bei's starting team and Cao Cao's future team Xiahoudun and others are different, and Sun Jian's team Zu Mao, Huang Gai, etc. are also different, Xiahoudun is a member of Cao's clan, so he was able to take charge of the army, Zu Mao, Huang Gai is brave, at most 100 enemies, 10 enemies, and Guan Zhang is the real 10,000 enemies, Guan Yu stabbed Yan Liang to death in the army, Zhang Fei Changbanpo only took more than 20 horsemen to frighten Cao Cao's chasing army, it is unbelievable, and because of this, the two of them are proud of their bravery, and look down on the defeat of Captain Liu.

Liu Bei is still young now, although there are some city governments, it is not as deep as in the future, in Zhuo County, he is a small tyrant, with a light chivalrous spirit, and he also underestimates Captain Liu, he doesn't say a word, and thinks in his heart: "Such a mediocre person can also be in charge of the first school of the Northern Army, ranking as a captain, but my generation of heroes has no place to stand out!" It's a pity. ”

Liu Bei had not studied the art of war, and to be honest, he was not proficient in marching and fighting, but although he was not proficient, it did not prevent him from despising Captain Liu.

Just like Cao Cao and Sun Jian, after seeing the talents of the captains of the Northern Army and the famous men of the states and counties under the command of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, they felt that they were nothing more than that, so they lost a little bit of awe for the Han family and the heroes of the world, this will make the ambitious Liu Bei and the brave Guan Zhang of the tiger and wolf despise them after seeing that the thunderous and well-known captains of the Northern Army were actually defeated by the Yellow Turbans of the same strength.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion not only shook the already rotten foundation of the Han family, but also lifted the fig leaf on the Han family. Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo and many other future princes also participated in this rebellion, and the performance of the Han soldiers fell into their eyes, and I don't know how many of them secretly despised the imperial court like Cao Cao and Liu Bei?

These are unknown, but what is certain is that the subsequent rebellions of Bian Zhang, Han Sui, etc., definitely have this reason.

……

Lieutenant Liu returned to the camp in defeat, and Huangfu Song convened a military meeting again in the afternoon of the same day.

After following Huangfu Song, the generals witnessed the bravery of the Zhangba Zuo Leopard and other horsemen this morning, and they all put away their arrogance and did not dare to underestimate the Jizhou Yellow Turban. Although the defeat in the morning slightly damaged morale, after noticing that the generals no longer despised the enemy and changed their attitude to prudence, Huangfu Song was still very satisfied, and said in his heart: "The arrogant army will be defeated." Our troops moved to several counties and pacified the two states, and the generals were proud of their merits and had the spirit of arrogance. Jizhou Yellow Turban, big thief also. I am afraid that I will be defeated. Now, through the morning battle, the proud attitude of the generals has been changed, but it is a good thing. ”

Don't look at Huangfu Song, who has always been calm and confident in front of the generals, in fact, he is under a lot of pressure. There are two aspects of pressure, one is the country and the other is the family.

The country is the Han family, he was ordered by the imperial court, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers to fight against thieves, and if he succeeded, he was a hero of the Han family, leaving a name in history, defeated, and the Han family may be overturned, and he himself would inevitably be imprisoned to apologize. The family is the voice of the family, the Huangfu family has been the gate for generations, his fathers and ancestors are powerful in Xizhou, this fame is not easy to come by, if he is defeated, not only will he suffer personally, but also affect the family.

The country and family are on his shoulders, how can he not be under pressure? So since Yingchuan, he has been cautious and walking on thin ice in every battle, and the more he wins, the more he reminds himself to be cautious, "those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety", as long as this yellow scarf has not been completely exterminated, as long as this last battle has not been fought, as long as Zhang Jiao has not been subdued, he cannot be careless.

However, he can only control himself, but he can't control the generals, although the generals under his command respect him because they respect his prestige, but at most he can only restrain them in military law, but there is no way to control their arrogance of constant victory, and he is often worried about it.

Unexpectedly, today's defeat of Captain Liu not only tested the combat power of the Jizhou Yellow Turban, but also changed the arrogance of the generals, which was an unexpected joy.

The bravery of the Yellow Turban Lux and the Zhangba Left Leopard, on the one hand, evoked the memories of the sect members, Zou Jing, Dong Min, Niu Fu, etc., and on the other hand, it shook the latecomers. Compared with yesterday's military meeting, the atmosphere in the tent today was somewhat depressing, and all the generals gathered in the tent were silent.

Huangfu Song said in his heart: "It's too much." It's good to have no arrogance, but it's not good if you lose your morale and morale. Therefore, he smiled and said, "Although Captain Liu was defeated today, in my opinion, he was still victorious despite defeat." ”

Liang Yan asked, "What does the general mean by this?" ”
