The next day, Zhang Luo's troops officially began to cross the river. Even if the boats were obtained, the troops only solved the problem of whether they could cross the river, and the progress of crossing the river did not improve. The wide river, the rushing water, and the scarcity of sailors all made it impossible to improve the progress of crossing the river.

"Cao Junhou, why don't you let the other brothers help?" At the meeting of the officer corps, Bian Xi was very puzzled by Cao Kun's choice. The more people are easier to do, and the more brothers help row, it will always be faster.

"Bian Shenza, you haven't sailed a boat since you heard this." Although Cao Kun wanted to be polite, he couldn't be polite at this time, "The more sailors, the better, but if you are not a sailor, you can row the boat with an oar, but I am afraid that you will be able to overturn the boat." ”

"How is this possible?" Bian Xi was unhappy.

Zhang Luo said with a smile: "What's impossible about this, Chief of Staff Bian must have never rowed a dragon boat, when rowing a dragon boat, someone must beat a drum at the bow of the boat, and the oarsman must paddle according to the drum beat." You have to train hard. ”

When it comes to training, Bian Xi no longer refutes that Zhang Luo's army attaches the most importance to training, and every job must be trained accordingly, not only to practice how to do it, but also to learn why to do it. Although he didn't dare to refute it anymore, Bian Xi was also anxious, and he asked, "If this is the case, how long will it take to cross the Qinghe River completely?" ”

"Three days." Cao Kun replied decisively.

"For three days, the main force doesn't know where it has gone." Bian Xi is really in a hurry.

Before crossing the Qing River, he almost despaired of whether he could cross the river quickly. Now that we have finally been able to cross the river, a new difficult situation is in front of us. Tens of thousands of Han troops have already crossed the Qing River, and there are nearly 10,000 Han troops in Ganling City, and they are also likely to cross the Qing River. If they could not join up with the main force as soon as possible, Zhang Luo's troops could have a fierce battle with the Han army at any time.

What's more, at the moment the troops will not be able to eat food for ten days. After becoming chief of staff, Bian Xi's breadth of vision had to expand a lot, and for a 2,500-strong army, there was a world of difference from that of 500. In one village, 500 people can be fed food for 10 days. And now?! No village could afford to feed 2,500 people for 10 days.

Zhang Luo himself was also anxious, so he didn't want Bian Xi to say something that would affect the morale of the army, "It's useless to be anxious, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." We will deal with whatever we encounter, but we can't mess up ourselves no matter what. Divide the reconnaissance unit into two parts, half cross the river, and hurry to explore the road and look for the main force. ”

The reconnaissance unit soon found a noteworthy target. The Han army on the other side of the river is beginning to deploy defenses along the river, and according to the current situation, the Han army troops have expanded to Zhang Luo's place to cross the river, which is a matter of one day.

"Let's fight!" Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang are the absolute main battle factions.

"Can't fight!" Zhang Luo immediately rejected their proposal.

"Why?" Cao Kun was very surprised.

This was the first time that Zhang Luo put forward the idea of avoiding war, and everyone thought that Zhang Luo would announce that he was ready to fight, and then began to lead the brothers to pounce on the Han army.

"We've moved the crossing point here." Zhang Luo pointed to the map and said.

The place he was referring to was more than a dozen miles downstream from the current crossing point. If there is anything special, there is a big bend in the river of this place and where the Han army could reach. Zhang Luo actually wanted to use such a turn to obscure the Han army's vision.

"Isn't this just a gamble of luck?" Lan Wei said in surprise.

For more than ten miles, the Han army can reach it in half a day at most, and it only takes an hour to continue to move forward. When the time comes, it will still be discovered by the Han army.

"Now we're just going to gamble on our luck!" Zhang Luo said calmly, "What's the benefit of fighting at this time?" There were at least 4,000 people in the Han army, and only 1,500 of us crossed the river, so there was no way to destroy the Han army in one fell swoop. Even if the Han army is defeated, it will only make the other Han armies gather here for us. At that time, we had not finished crossing the river, so what should we do with our brothers on the south side of the river? Leave them there? ”

A large part of the troops that have not yet crossed the peace are old and weak, and they are all relatives of the soldiers in the troops. Let the fighters fight for their loved ones, and everyone naturally has unlimited courage. But these people can be left on the south bank, and these people will not survive the attack of the Han army in any case.

As for letting them go home on their own, there is no need to think about it, the food of the troops can be eaten for seven or eight days at most, and these people will not even be able to go back to Lijia Village, which is already empty, for seven or eight days. By this point, everyone had no choice - they had to cross the river with all their members.

For fear of being discovered by the Han army, the reconnaissance troops did not dare to send dense observation posts again. The Han army showed no signs of completely stopping, and they continued to expand the scope of their search. When more than 500 people could cross the river, the Han army reached the bend of the river. At this time, even Zhang Luo couldn't sit still, and a plan to rush the Han army in a short period of time had been formulated.

Just before the troops were ready to leave, they suddenly got the news that the Han army had actually shrunk its troops when they were about to appear Zhang Luo's river-crossing troops. This can confuse Zhang Luo - what kind of moth is the Han army preparing to make.

After all the troops had crossed the river, Zhang Luo did not even dare to continue northward immediately. The movements of that Han army had to be figured out first. However, the scouts who went out brought back a small group of people, and Zhang Luo was stunned when he saw the person, and that person turned out to be Xu He, a native of Qingzhou

Xu Hezhi was not so surprised, when he saw Zhang Luo, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Luo's arm, and cried loudly: "The land and the people are gone, and the great sage and good teacher have been exhumed and whipped." 100,000 people! was killed by Huangfu Song. ”

It turned out that Huangfu Song led the army to attack the Taiping Dao camp, Zhang Liang was killed, more than 30,000 Taiping Dao main forces were killed, and more than 50,000 Taiping Taoists went to the river to die, burned more than 30,000 vehicles, and captured his women and children. Zhang Jiaoxian had died of illness, and he dissected the coffin and killed the corpse, and passed on the head of the Beijing Division.

Later Emperor Fu Songfu and Julu Taishou Guo Dian attacked Zhang Bao in Xia Quyang and beheaded him. For the first time, more than 100,000 people were built in the south of the city.

The rest of the Taiping Road broke through under the leadership of Zhang Niujiao and Chu Feiyan and fled to Taihang Mountain.

At this point, the majestic Yellow Turban Uprising completely failed, and the remnants turned to guerrillas and hid in the deep mountains and old forests to continue to resist. The imperial court named Huangfu Song as the general of the left chariot cavalry and Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi was pardoned without guilt under the protection of the two.

The imperial court appointed Huangfu Song as the general of the left chariot cavalry, led the Jizhou pastor, and named him the Marquis of Huaili, and the taxes of Huaili and Meiyang counties were eaten, and a total of 8,000 households were eaten.

Zhu Jun led his troops back to Beijing, served as the general of the right chariot cavalry, and was later appointed as the doctor of Guanglu, increased the number of food and yi by 5,000 households, changed the title of Qiantang Marquis, and added a special position. Later, he resigned because of his mother's funeral. After finishing his service, he started as a master craftsman, and was transferred to the Shaofu and the servant.

Jingzhou Qin Jie was officially appointed as the Taishou of Nanyang, in addition, Su Dai, Bei Yu, Zhao Ci and others were officially appointed county commanders and county magistrates.

Zhu Jun reported all of Sun Jian's deeds to the imperial court, and the imperial court appointed Sun Jian as the Sima of other departments.

Cao Cao fought meritoriously, transferred to the prime minister of Jinan, and became the official of the feudal territory.

Liu Bei led his subordinate lieutenant Zou Jing to ask for merit in the Yellow Turban Thief and awarded An Xi Lieutenant.
