Four hundred and two The incomparably correct path

Yuan Shu, who was about to be penetrated by Guo Peng in the entire Yuzhou, finally relieved his breath and was able to deploy troops to arrange a defensive line against Guo Peng.

At that time, Guo Peng also learned the news that Cao Ren and Guan Yu's army had broken the Yellow Turban Army Liu Bisuo's headquarters in Runan County.

At the beginning of October, Cao Ren and Guan Yu joined forces near Pingyu County and achieved a two-way joint attack on the Yellow Turban Army in Pingyu County, and the 30,000 troops combined to attack the 30,000 Yellow Turban defenders in Pingyu County.

Liu Bi also did his best, gathered all the soldiers and horses he could mobilize, raised a large amount of grain and grass, and wanted to fight with Cao Ren in Pingyu County, the generals came out, the elite soldiers and horses came out, and everyone did everything to defeat Cao Ren near Pingyu County.

Cao Ren camped west of Pingyu County, discussed tactics with Chen Gong and Guan Yu and other generals, and then began a high-intensity firepower attack on Pingyu County.

The trebuchet smashed indiscriminately at Pingyu County, and the huge stones fell on the city wall, the city tower, and the city in the city, and the Yellow Turban Army was in panic.

Although he had already learned the power of trebuchets before, Liu Pi and his generals could not find a way to deal with trebuchets.

They tried their best to fight the trebuchets, and even had a carpenter's proposal to build a wooden canopy, a very thick one, so they erected a wooden canopy on the top of the city to block it, but it was still smashed neatly by the trebuchet.

The roof was not good and was destroyed, and the soldiers at the head of the city still fled in pieces, and the defense line at the head of the city could not be effectively maintained.

Cao Ren and Chen Gong commanded the army to take advantage of this gap to destroy all the defenses outside the city, fill in the ravines, and then rush to the city wall with a ladder cart.

The soldiers bravely rushed to the city wall with a large shield, and the strong crossbowmen provided them with fire support, and when they landed in the city, they could only rely on the soldiers' own hand-to-hand combat, and at this time, Liu Bi would also urgently arrange for the soldiers to quickly rush to the city tower to seize an effective position, so as to resist the strong attack of Cao Ren's troops.

The two armies fought fiercely, Cao Ren's department was elite, good at fighting, and extremely strong in combat, while the Yellow Turban Army was large in number, and the supervising team was behind, and there was no way to retreat, so they had to fight hard.

As soon as Cao Ren saw that the strong attack could not be carried out and that the enemy still had strength, he changed his strategy and continued to use trebuchets to smash them, shooting rockets into the city, and also launching earth-shattering thunderbolts into the city.

The sudden sound of thunder made the Yellow Turban Army fart, and one by one they were desperately scared away from the city tower, and there was not much willingness to rush up to continue the battle, thinking that they had been attacked by Thor.

Liu Pi and the others were also frightened enough by the earth-shaking thunder, when the earth-shaking thunder exploded at the head of the city and in the city, they were also very cowardly, but when the earth-shaking thunder attack stopped, and the army rushed to the city wall again to fight, they still forced the soldiers to rush to fight with Cao Ren's troops to protect the city wall.

I have to say that these Yellow Turban Army still have some combat effectiveness, and they repelled Cao Ren's troops five or six times in a row, and they didn't let Cao Ren succeed for three days, which made Cao Ren quite annoyed.

However, the difference between combat effectiveness and ordnance technology makes the Yellow Turban Army's city head always very empty, and every major battle is a dangerous and dangerous defense of the tower, so sooner or later there will be problems.

So on the fifth day of the siege battle, Cao Ren invested the 1,000 Tiger Guards handed over to him by Guo Peng as a sharp knife unit, and Yan Liang, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, volunteered to be the commander of the sharp knife army, and Cao Ren agreed.

Then Cao Ren drank a bowl of Zhuangxing wine with them, and a thousand tiger guards, under the leadership of Yan Liang and under the cover of a large army, rushed up to the city wall, brandishing sharper weapons, and set off a bloody storm on the city wall with stronger bodies and more effective tactics.

Liu Bi still sent people to go up as usual, but he couldn't stand it when he was on top, and his subordinates couldn't stand it.

He Man and He Yi saw that the big thing was not good, and immediately led the personal guards to kill them, facing the Tiger Guards led by Yan Liang.

The tiger guards are tall and powerful, with a small shield tied to one arm and a precision forging ring knife in the other, forming a tactical formation, one group after another rushed up to fight, and the Yellow Turban Army was caught off guard and hurried, and in a blink of an eye, the kung fu head was rolling on the ground, and the blood was soaring.

He Man and He Yi are already relatively elite personal guards who belong to them, and Rao can't compete with the Tiger Guards.

Especially the leader Yan Liang is unstoppable, a tiger and tiger with a precision forging ring head sword dance, every swing can take away a human life, and the tiger guards beside him protect him, killing him all over blood, and he can't tell whether it is his own or the enemy's.

He Yi and He Man tried their best to stop Yan Liang's offensive, but the key was that the soldiers couldn't resist and fled one after another.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the tiger guards at the head of the city continued to expand the space they occupied, and more and more soldiers rushed to the city wall to further expand the battle line.

The Yellow Turban Army at the head of the city was gradually suppressed to both sides, and it was suppressed to the entrance of the city tower, and it was impossible to stop the Huwei's assault at all.

He Man couldn't do it, it was too slow, he was caught up by Yan Liang, slashed on his back and knocked him to the ground, and died on the city tower like this.

Yan Liang continued to lead the troops to assault, rushing down the stairs, like a tiger descending the mountain, and the entire Xichengmen defense line also became precarious, Liu Pi saw that it was not good, and immediately mobilized troops to rush back, but he couldn't rush the fierce Yan Liang at all.

More and more soldiers and horses rushed in, the situation began to become out of control, and He Yi pulled Liu Bi to run.

"I can't go! How many of our brothers have paid for it with their lives! What they bought with their lives, how can I give it up? ”

Liu Bi just didn't want to go.

"What's the use of keeping these things if your life is gone?! Let's go! If you don't leave, it's too late! This battle can't go on! We're done! Let's go! ”

He Yi dragged Liu Pi hard.

Liu Bi watched everything he had worked so hard to get come to naught, and the pain in his heart was uncontrollable, and he shed tears while running, gritting his teeth and hating Guo Peng.

Subsequently, the gate of Pingyu County was opened, the army swarmed in, and the Yellow Turban Army was completely defeated, with two or three thousand people killed, more than 20,000 people captured, and more than 100,000 men and women with the army's families.

Liu Pi escaped from Pingyu with less than a thousand remnants of troops and a group of generals, and then fled in the direction of Gushi, where there were also a group of soldiers and horses from Huang Shao and Gong Du, who he thought might be able to resist.

But that's not possible.

The overall situation of Runan County has been decided, even if Liu Pi and the others return to Gushi, they will not have enough troops to fight Cao Ren, Cao Ren's army has occupied an absolute advantage, and there is no problem with the ownership of Runan County.

After that, Cao Ren dispersed his troops to attack the city and conquer the city, and took all the surrounding counties and townships, but did not encounter any resistance, naturally, and did not see many people.

The destruction of Runan County is also quite serious.

Cao Ren's army swept the place and advanced towards Gushi County, intending to uproot the last fortress of the Yellow Turban Army, completely eliminate the Yellow Turban Army, and then end the history of the Yellow Turban Army in the world for ten years.

The Yellow Turban Army in the whole world was basically wiped out by Guo Peng.

The second Yellow Turban Uprising was vigorous, and the world was shaken for a time, Qingxu, Montenegro, Baibo, Runan Gepi, the four Yellow Turban forces echoed each other, and the court was terrified.

Now, the Qingxu Yellow Turban Army and the Baibo Yellow Turban Army were defeated by Guo Peng, and Zhang Yan, the head of the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro, surrendered and was absorbed by Guo Peng, leaving only the last Runan Yellow Turban Army to be destroyed.

After ten years of wind and rain, the wave of yellow turbans set off by Zhang Jiao has finally come to an end.

The first Yellow Turban Rebellion, which was initiated by the conspiracy of the upper echelons and implicated all aspects of the entire Eastern Han Empire, and the second Yellow Turban Uprising, which was purely initiated by the people at the bottom.

The two large-scale upheaval dealt a heavy blow to the Eastern Han Empire in the midst of the storm, and indirectly pushed the Eastern Han Empire to the grave.

The majesty of the Han dynasty ceased to exist under the repeated trampling of the Yellow Turban and the Liangzhou warlords, and after the incident of Yuan Shu's rash proclamation of the emperor, it further stimulated the beating of ambition, and there were many ambitious people in the world, and the situation of great unification could no longer be maintained.

They are all opening the way for the true son of heaven and paving the way for the true son of heaven.

With their blood, a path to supreme authority was painted.

The right path.

Thank you.
