The Yellow Turban Army's defense system in Gwangjong did not simply rely on the walls of Gwangjong City to carry out defense, and the Yellow Turban Army also occupied many strongholds outside the city. One of the key points to the southwest is the boundary bridge.

Dong Zhuo, the commander of the Han army's battalion, found that the officials of the noble clan of the Northern Army did not listen to the orders and were secretly perfunctory, so he gave up a full-scale field battle with the Yellow Turban Army and turned to positional warfare. He first personally led the team and advanced the Nanda camp to within eighty miles of Guangzong.

Zhang Niujiao briefly introduced the situation to Zhang Luo, not long after Zhang Luo and they left Guangzong City, Dong Zhuo moved the camp again, and ordered the deputy marshal to force the Han army's northern camp to thirty miles away from the city wall.

Dong Zhuo's move to camp this time not only approached the Yellow Turban Army, but also cut off the road for Zhang Luo to lead the team back to Guangzong. Even if there is still a way to go, there is no guarantee when to encounter the Han patrol. Zhang Luo and the others each carried forty catties of captured materials, plus several days of non-stop marching and fighting, they did not have time to rest, and their physical strength had reached the bottom. If it is attacked by a patrol of the Han army, let alone transport the captured materials back. I'm afraid that Zhang Luo won't be able to save their own lives.

Seeing that Zhang Luo and them were so shocked, Zhang Niujiao smiled and said: "Brothers, don't worry for the time being, before I came out, the great sage and good teacher had already ordered Qu Shuai Chu Feiyan to personally lead the team to the boundary bridge. As long as I send someone to support him, he will send troops to lead the Han army on the other side of the boundary bridge. And a team of brothers will come to meet and transport the captured back to the city. ”

"So good! I'll listen to Zhang Qushuai's dispatch later. Knowing that a large army was responding, Zhang was slightly relieved.

Zhang Niujiao immediately went back to report, and in the afternoon, more than 20 brothers who were in charge of carrying came over. It didn't take long to hear shouts of killing, bowstrings, and swords staggering in the distance. But this is not a matter that Zhang Luo and they have to care about, Zhang Niujiao led the transport troops, carrying things and leaving. The team avoided the battlefield where the two sides were fighting, and rushed all the way to the direction of Gwangjong Castle.

The brothers who came to meet them all knew that Zhang Luo had run out of strength along the way, so they didn't let the strategy and others resist the captured materials, but each of the receiving troops carried more than 20 catties of things, and ran for more than ten miles for an hour. On the way, more than 50 brothers answered. The progress of the line was much faster, and the number one hundred and ten people finally arrived at the city of Guangzong when it was about to get dark.

When I arrived at the north gate of the city, I saw many Yellow Turban soldiers standing above and below the city. It seems that the news got out pretty quickly. To Zhang Luo's surprise, there was an officer in a yellow robe in the crowd, and he looked at it intently, it was Zhang Bao, the general of the land who was in charge of the defense of the whole city.

Being able to let Zhang Bao come to greet him in person shows that the hard work of seizing materials has been valued by the upper echelons, and Zhang Luo is also a little proud in his heart. A few steps forward, Zhang Luo took the lead in saluting, "Subordinate Zhang Luo has seen the local father." ”

Zhang Bao only responded casually, and went straight to the seized materials. After making sure that the bags were full of salt, dried vegetables and grain, Zhang Bao turned his head and said to Zhang Luo: "You have made a great contribution to the team!" Heroic boy! ”

Happy to happy, Zhang Bao's mind was still on military affairs, but he just praised Zhang Luo, he turned to the person next to him and said, "Send these materials to the military depot immediately." ”

Zhang Luo stepped forward at this time and said to Zhang Bao: "Digong, his subordinates are attacking in the name of the general. It is natural for the local government to send these seized things to the military depot. But he also asked the local government to send a brother and his subordinates to meet the people together, so that when the subordinates returned to their lives, they would also be able to go to the local bus on their behalf. ”

Zhang Luo's tone and demeanor were quite respectful, but there was a faint implication of not believing Zhang Bao in what he said, and his subordinates couldn't help but sweat in their hearts.

However, Zhang Bao was not angry, only to see him laugh, "I was just happy, but I didn't have time to think of it." In this case, I will go with you to General Rengong and explain the matter to his face. ”

Since Zhang Bao said so, Zhang Luo had nothing to say, ordered his subordinates to go back to the camp to rest, and followed Zhang Bao towards the city.

On the way to Zhang Liang's barracks, the two sides chatted a few words, and Zhang Luo learned that Zhang Jiao was worried about becoming ill, and the doctor did not treat himself: "God bless me Taipingdao!" Great sages and good teachers will be able to get through this. ”

Then the two involuntarily talked about the recent military affairs, and Zhang Luo didn't care about the Han army's tightening of the encirclement.

Looking at Zhang Bao's heavy expression, Zhang Luo smiled and said, "Digong! Although Dong Zhongying is a good general in a border county and can use soldiers, it is true, but he is not from a scholarly family, and without the prestige of Lu Zigan, a scholar like him, he can't suppress those generals from the scholar family of the Northern Army of the Han Army. Want to beat them?! As long as we lead them outside to fight in the field and drag them through the mountains a few times, they will be even more rash in their eagerness to defeat us. Setting up an ambush at this time will definitely annihilate them in one fell swoop. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Bao asked: "What if the Han army does not pursue our troops out of the city, but takes advantage of the city's air defense to step up the siege of Guangzong?" ”

Zhang Luo replied: "Then we simply don't want to defend Guangzong, as long as we kill the Han army that is chasing us, we want to take this Guangzong City again, it will be easy." If the land is lost, the people and the land are lost; If people lose land, people and land will survive. Why do you have to care about the gains and losses of this city and place? ”

"If you lose your land, you will lose your land; If people lose land, people and land will survive...... Hehe. Zhang Bao just smiled after hearing this, but didn't say anything more.

Zhang Luo, as a descendant, certainly knew the reasons for the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising:

From the subjective aspect, first of all, the Yellow Turban Army lacked strategically minded military leaders, its plan for the uprising was extremely incomplete, and it lacked unified command and mutual cooperation.

At the same time, the leaders of the rebel army lacked military command ability, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao, Bocai, Zhang Mancheng, Zhao Hong, Han Zhong, etc., all of whom only knew how to stick to one city and one pool, or besieged the city for a long time, and fought with the Han army for attrition, did not know how to use flexible tactical tactics, took the initiative, and were always passively beaten until defeat.

secondly, there is no far-sighted strategic vision, so it cannot put forward more specific strategic guidelines; Moreover, rear bases and organized combat units have not been established, so troop support has been limited and combat operations have been constrained.

Therefore, Zhang Luo was sympathetic to the uprising, hoping that his suggestion would have a little butterfly effect.

Fortunately, Guangzong City is not big, and with just such a conversation, the two of them arrived at the Zhangliang military camp. Zhang Bao did not give any comment on Zhang Luo's opinion, and he took Zhang Luo directly into the barracks.

Zhang Bao took Zhang Luo into Zhang Liang's Chinese military mansion. In addition to the guards, there are also goddess officials and goddaughters in the house. Seeing Zhang Bao coming in, the goddess officials stepped forward to salute. Zhang Bao asked Zhang Luo to wait outside, and he went straight into the living room where Zhang Liang was. Zhang Luo simply stood in the courtyard, his eyes drooping slightly, completely ignoring the women. This is not because Zhang Luo is hypocritical, because the religious system of Taiping Dao is very strict, especially after the uprising, the stricter the hierarchy.

At this time, because in the era of small farmers, whether or not there was a privilege represented the level of status. If the superior does not have privileges, he will only make the people below laugh. Zhang Luo can understand this, but it does not mean that he can accept this - the concept of equality of all people in later generations has been engraved in his bones.

What Zhang Luo didn't know was that he was standing in the courtyard with such a calm demeanor, which attracted the attention of Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao and others in the house. Originally, after Zhang Bao and his younger brother Zhang Liang finished talking about Zhang Luo's grain robbery, they were ready to go out and ask Zhang Luo to come in. As a result, when he looked out of the window, he saw Zhang Luo standing so simply, completely relaxed, and ignoring the women who appeared in the courtyard from time to time, which made Zhang Bao quite surprised.

Twenty-year-old youth, even if they are shy, will only deliberately avoid women. Zhang Luo's attitude of turning a blind eye has a strange sense of maturity. Zhang Bao has always been in charge of missionary work, and has seen thousands of people, but he has never seen a few such calm and ordinary young people.

found that his brother Zhang Bao's abnormality appeared, and Zhang Liang also looked out. After looking at it for a while, Zhang Luo chuckled lightly and said to the guards, "Call Zhang Luo outside to come in." ”
