Seeing this, Huangfu Song said in his heart: "It's not good! ”

He agreed with the opinions of Liang Changshi and Master Yan, and also thought that Captain Liu was afraid that he would be defeated, but it was because he saw that the main formation of the Yellow Turban soldiers lined up outside the Yellow Turban Battalion stood still when facing the more than 1,000 comrades who were defeated and retreated. Since it stands still, it means that there must be a backhand.

Sure enough, as he and Changshi and the master bookkeeper expected, when the more than 1,000 yellow scarves who had retreated were about to retreat to the main formation in front of the battalion, they let out a shout, divided into two strands, and ran to the left and right, not only did not impact the main formation, but exposed the main formation to the front of Captain Liu's headquarters.

Looking from Huangfu Song, it can be seen that after the more than 1,000 yellow turbans of Captain Liu's retreat suddenly dispersed, the whole formation paused slightly, it seemed that Captain Liu was a little caught off guard, and probably realized that he had fallen into the enemy's lure plan, as if he had the intention of retreating, but at this time they were only a hundred steps away from the main formation of the Yellow Turban soldiers, but they couldn't retreat.

Zou Jing turned around and said to Huangfu Song: "General, Captain Liu seems to have fallen into the trick of thieves to lure the enemy, and Jing is willing to lead his headquarters to rescue him." ”

Huangfu Song shook his hand and said, "Today's battle is to test the combat strength of the thief soldiers, and victory or defeat is not important. Although Captain Liu was a thief, there were not many casualties among the 4,000 people in the headquarters, but there were still more than 3,000, and the formation was not chaotic, even if there would be a small defeat, there should be no obstacle to the safe withdrawal. ”

Zou Jing responded: "Yes." ”

Turn around and watch the battle.

There were about 5,000 Yellow Turban soldiers who came out of the camp at the right time, and more than 1,000 people were divided to attack Captain Liu's headquarters, and there were about 4,000 soldiers left, all of whom were in front of the camp at this time. The sect member looked at it from afar on the watchtower and said: "Captain Liu is a thief, deep into the enemy, the front is the strong camp of the thief, and the back is far away from our camp. ”

If the 4,000 Yellow Turban soldiers lined up outside the Yellow Turban camp were not routed, they would be pursued as they retreated. The march and battle rely on one breath, and the qi may be very good when attacking, but once the retreat, this breath is gone, and if the qi is gone, the fighting spirit will be gone, and the fighting spirit will be slaughtered as soon as it is gone. Although Huangfu Song had a response to the horses outside the Han barracks, and there were cavalry among them, after all, it was far away from Captain Liu's headquarters, and even if he could rush over in time, Captain Liu's troops would probably suffer heavy casualties.

This is the common sense of the soldiers, and Captain Liu obviously took this into account. He quickly restrained his subordinates, no longer had the idea of retreating, and reinvigorated himself to beat the drum and wave the banner repeatedly. He used a red flag, which stood out in the morning sun. The generals on the watchtower could see it clearly, and the sect member said: "Captain Liu is going to lead the people to assault." ”

Although I couldn't hear Captain Liu's orders, I could understand his flag language.

In the formation of 4,000 Yellow Turban soldiers lined up outside the Yellow Turban Battalion, the flags also waved, and several groups of soldiers standing at the front suddenly split to the left and right, and hundreds of people walked out of the road they parted and lined up to the front of the formation. The generals on the Hanying watchtower looked at it, Liang Yan and other later generals were all surprised, and the sect members, Dong Min and others also changed color.

Niu Fu was quick to speak, and shouted with an oops: "I didn't expect the Guangzong thieves to send their elite so quickly!" ”

Dong Min changed color, but he didn't forget to glance at the Sima who spoke before, snorted coldly, and said: "This is the elite of Guangzong, you can wait until you see their combat power and say again, 'Guangzong Yellow Turban is nothing more than that'!" ”

There were only hundreds of Yellow Turban soldiers who came out of the battle, but why were all the generals on the tower surprised and changed color? But it's because the dress of these hundreds of yellow turban soldiers is really strange, none of them are wearing armor, all of them are fleshy, ** go into battle, all stand in front of the battle with big axes, and when the two armies are fighting fiercely, such a group of people suddenly come out, which makes people feel shocked to watch.

Huangfu Song said: "Is this the Yellow Turban Lux you are talking about? ”

First Lu Zhi and then Dong Zhuo, all of whom had fought against the elite of this Guangzong, and the sect members and Dong Min's generals were deeply impressed by them, including Dong Zhuo, who had mentioned them to Huangfu Song.

The Sect member replied, "Yes." There were about 5,000 dead soldiers like this in the thief camps in Guangzong City and outside the city, and they were selected by Zhang Jiao from hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Daoists in Jizhou. ”

"Well, I'm going to have to take a closer look at them and see how brave they really are."

Huangfu Song's eyes did not leave the battlefield, and at this time, the forward of Liu's lieutenant department had already begun to attack. Behind the hundreds of fleshy Yellow Turban wrestlers were several columns of Yellow Turban crossbowmen, ready to take aim at them. The arrows rained down, and many of the Han soldiers avoided them and fell to the ground with arrows. Although the arrows were urgent, the enemy and us were too close, and the arrows were only two shots, and the Han soldiers who rushed in front had already come into contact with the Yellow Turban Force.

Although these dead soldiers have no armor, they can have high fighting spirit, raise their axes in unison, and shout in unison: "The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand!" ”

The cries of hundreds of people shook the heavens and the earth, and the war horses in the Han camp, which were miles away, were all nervous and neighed. As soon as the cry was called, hundreds of people held axes horizontally, accompanied by rumbling war drums, shouting and fighting, not avoiding the enemy, although they did not retreat.

The large axe is a medium-sized weapon, its length is between a spear and a knife, because it uses more iron, compared to the spear, so it is not common on the battlefield, and once the appearance of the formation will bring a strong impact to people. Spears can only stab and block, and axes can cut and smash directly, and the lethality of these two weapons is not the same, especially when warriors use large axes.

Although the watchtower in the Han camp was far away from the battlefield, when they saw these hundreds of yellow turban wrestlers wielding big axes and shouting and fighting, Huangfu Song and others were not surprised and shaken. In front of the heavy, sharp axe, the spear is long, but useless. Everyone saw with their own eyes that in just a moment's effort, as far as their line of sight could see, at least a dozen Han soldiers' spears were cut off by big axes. After cutting off the spear, he swings his axe and strikes horizontally. The Han soldiers who attacked were all wearing leather armor, but they couldn't stop the big axe at all, some had their arms cut off, some had their chests and abdomen cut off, some were even cut off by their waists, and some had their heads flying sideways.

Such a tragic situation, Rao is the generals of the Han army and others have repeatedly fought hard, and they have also lost their color.

Fu Xie exclaimed: "The thief has the courage of the Yue people!" ”

The king of Yue, Goujian, fought with the king of Wu, so that the dead soldiers challenged, and when they reached the Wu array, they called for themselves. Although these Yellow Turban wrestlers in front of them have not yet reached the point of shaking the enemy in front of the enemy's formation, their flesh-wielding axes have almost shown that they are not afraid of death.

Liang Yan and Yan Zhong changed color, and Fu Xie sighed again: "It's really elite." ”

The Sima who was sprayed by Shi Cai and Dong Min was dumbfounded and speechless.

Hundreds of Yellow Turban wrestlers faced more than 3,000 Han soldiers, not only did not fall behind, but gained the upper hand. The war drums in the main formation in front of the Yellow Turban Barracks beat, with the military order, these dead soldiers stepped forward, and they killed a bloody road under the heavy attack of the Han soldiers, and moved forward for more than ten steps, and then divided into two roads, all the way to the left, all the way to the right, and everywhere they passed, no matter how many Han soldiers were in front, they were all destroyed.

A few hundred people actually slowly disrupted the formation of more than 3,000 Han soldiers.

Suddenly, the war drums in the Yellow Turban Battalion were played, the camp gate was wide open, and more than ten horsemen galloped out from the side gate, bypassing the main formation in front of them, and directly hitting the flank of Captain Liu's department, but they actually returned the tactics used by Captain Liu.

The generals on the watchtower of the Han camp were all shocked, and Huangfu Song heard bursts of exclamations from the two watchtowers not far away, and although none of the generals around him were exclaimed because of Huangfu Song's presence, many people gasped, and one muttered: "Captain Liu is both positive and strange, but this thief soldier learns quickly." ......, who is this thief rider who came out of the camp? With only a dozen horsemen, do you want to break through Captain Liu's flank? ”

Tian Yi, the head of Dong Zhuo's department, didn't speak much, and replied at this time: "I don't know his name, but I know that the thieves call him Zhangba Zuo Leopard, maybe his surname is Zuo." ”

Dong Zhuo's three major strategists: Changshi Li Ru, Sima Jiaxu, and the chief bookkeeper Tian Yi.

Most of the Yellow Turbans were poor and illiterate, so in order to facilitate the recitation of prestige, all the generals and colonels in the army who had brave and military talents were usually given nicknames, which were often based on their own characteristics. The name is "Zhangba Left Leopard", "Left" is probably the surname, "Leopard" should describe this person as brave as a leopard, and "Zhangba" refers to this person's weapon, a Zhangba horse lance.
