Zhang Feng asked Huo Lei to ask his father Zhang Miao for weapons and armor, not for no reason, there was indeed a large group of yellow turban thieves rushing towards the sour jujube, but the leader was not Zhang Jiao, but Zhang Bao.

Seeing that the Yellow Turban thief Kou was getting closer and closer to the sour dates, Zhang Feng began to worry, Huo Lei had not come back yet, and with the more than 1,000 people in his own hands, if he defended the city, it would be really difficult to deal with the main force of 50,000 Yellow Turbans.

"Dian Wei, from today onwards, the boot camp training is over, and I will begin to recharge my energy and prepare for battle."

Dian Weihu roared and said, "The last general obeys the order!" ”

has been in the sour jujube for almost a month, Dian Wei has already been itching in his heart, and he can't wait to fight with the yellow turban thief Kou as soon as possible.

Zhang Feng said again: "Send people to prepare more dry food in case of emergency." ”

"No!"

Dian Wei took the order and left, and a bloody battle was about to kick off again.

The county government of sour jujube.

Only from the beginning of the training of the recruit camp, Zhang Feng moved to the barracks, ate and lived with those recruits, and Li Xiuning lived alone in the entire mansion.

At the entrance of the mansion, two black-armored soldiers were guarding majestically.

"I've seen a general!"

The two black-armored soldiers saw Zhang Feng returning to his house and saluted loudly.

Zhang Feng said with a pleasant face: "These red tapes will be waived in the future, is Xiuning in the mansion?" ”

"Commander Li discussed with the third and fourth brothers in the mansion about the newly recruited weapons and armor of the 3,000 rebels."

Zhang Feng nodded, it seemed that Li Xiuning had sensed the urgency of the war.

In the lobby of the mansion, Li Xiuning was discussing with the two black-armored soldiers who were the third and fourth in line, and when they saw Zhang Feng coming, they all got up and said, "I've seen the general." ”

Zhang Feng waved his hand and motioned for the three of them to continue to sit down, and said straight to the point: "You are all your own people, so I won't beat around the bush, according to the report of the spies, the Yellow Turban thief Kou Zhang Bao led the main force of 50,000 Yellow Turbans to kill the sour dates, what good plan do the three have?" ”

"Xiuning, I want to hear your opinion?"

Li Xiuning glanced back at Zhang Feng, and said: "Since ancient times, the soldiers have come to block, the water has come to cover the earth, and the thieves have not arrived, as long as we prepare early, we will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the thieves." ”

"How to prepare?"

Zhang Feng seemed to have seized the opportunity and asked relentlessly!

Li Xiuning replied: "The thieves are outnumbered, and they should not be the enemy head-on, when they are unprepared, disturb the hearts of the thieves, once the siege is unfavorable at that time, and the average daily food consumption of 50,000 people is quite heavy, the thief army will naturally retreat without a fight." ”

"Yes, I mean so, but how to attack it unprepared?"

Li Xiuning replied: "If before the thief army arrives, send an elite soldier out of the city to ambush, when the thief army comes, the two sides will be attacked, and one will be caught off guard, and then this elite army can attack the camp at night, or attack the thief's grain and grass, and the result will be twice the result with half the effort." ”

Zhang Feng frowned, his thoughts coincided with Li Xiuning, and it seemed that he was not wrong.

Zhang Feng asked with a cautious face: "Xiuning, if you are asked to lead the rebels in the city to defend the city now, how many days can you hold it at most?" ”

Huo Lei asked for weapons and armor but did not return, and the rebels were very short of equipment, and they were really in danger.

Li Xiuning thought for a moment and replied: "Five days, after five days, the water source in the city will be exhausted, I am afraid that if the thief army does not break through the city gate, those displaced people who have just come here will also rebel." ”

Zhang Feng was happy in his heart, as long as someone could stabilize the sour jujube city for three days, he would have a way to make Zhang Bao return in vain.

"Young master, young master, I'm back!"

At this moment, Huo Leifeng ran in for a while, panting and said, "Young Master, I brought something back for you." ”

Zhang Fengxi said: "How many?" ”

Horay replied, "A thousand spears, five hundred steel knives, five hundred longbows, five hundred sets of armor. ”

"Just a little bit? Didn't I explain it to you, as much as you wanted! ”

Huo Lei's face was stunned, and he said bitterly: "Young master, you will give me a problem, these things, but the master emptied the treasury of Chen Liu, and only made it up for you." ”

After thinking about it, it is estimated that Daddy Zhang Miao really took out a shot.

Li Xiuning was overjoyed, and said to Zhang Feng: "Childe, with these weapons and armor, I can assure you that the thief Kou Xiu wants to set foot on the city gate for half a step. ”

The matter has come to this point, and it is only up to people to do things.

"Li Xiuning obeyed the order, and you led the rebel army to guard Sujube City and deal with the affairs of the city."

"Li Xiuning takes the order!"

Huo Lei looked at Zhang Feng with a confused expression, and asked in a low voice, "Young Master, where are we going?" ”

Zhang Feng replied loudly: "Go out of the city and kill the enemy!" ”

Li Xiuning was stunned when he heard this, and was about to say goodbye, when Zhang Feng had already walked out with Huo Lei.

After leaving the county government, Zhang Feng hurriedly returned to the barracks, and arranged for Huo Lei to take people to purchase special things and prepare to go out of the city to meet the enemy.

……

"Oh... Oh... Oh..."

Strange cries rumbled with the sound of thunderous horses' hooves, and a large area of black-pressed men and horses swept across the plain like locusts, which was the main force of the Yellow Turban led by Zhang Bao.

Everywhere they went, black smoke billowed and villages burned, crops about to grow were trampled on, and people were slaughtered as they toiled.

Countless kind-hearted people succumbed to the coercion and temptation of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and the poor and kind poor people thought that the Yellow Turban Thieves would not come to harm them, and the peaceful and prosperous times they were looking forward to were coming, and they could finally live a good life this year.

Unexpectedly, it changed suddenly, and the east wall was troubled, and overnight, I finally saw this group of ferocious jackals clearly.

"Hahaha......"

Zhang Bao whipped the horse on the stock fiercely, and galloped the horse wildly, he had already committed a lot of beastly acts, and he didn't realize that there was anything wrong with doing so.

Since the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising, he has done just that, not only robbing the poor people, but also robbing property and seizing the official lady.

Under the guise of removing the Tao for the heavens, robbing women and property, and killing strong men is just like the strong and the weak in nature, which is justified! No one has ever felt that there is anything wrong with wolves eating sheep.

Therefore, Zhang Bao never thought that there was anything wrong with such an act of riding and looting, this is the logic of the Yellow Turban's morality.

A disheveled little boss rushed to Zhang Bao's side and shouted angrily: "General Digong, something happened......

"Appeal ......"

Zhang Bao drank the war horse, turned his horse, and waited for the little leader to catch up before asking, "Ma Dog, what's wrong?" ”

Ma Gou roared loudly: "Hei Niu was attacked by more than 1,000 officers and soldiers in a village in front of him, and more than 300 people and horses were all killed. At first, I didn't believe it, but I brought someone to see it and found out that it was all true. ”

Zhang Bao's eyes turned red in an instant, and he said sharply: "These hateful officers and soldiers, I will arrest them all and light the sky lanterns one by one...... Blow the trumpet and assemble the whole army! ”

"Woo woo ......"

Zhang Bao gave an order, and the low and distant horn sounded in an instant, and the Yellow Turban thieves galloped back one after another, and quickly began to form a formation.

On this trip, Zhang Bao was under the guise of the main force of 50,000 yellow turbans, but in fact there were less than 10,000 people, he led the main force of 3,000 people first, and the rear team of 7,000 people was led by Zhou Cang, the Great Han of Guanxi.

Twenty miles in the northern suburbs of sour jujube.

Pieces of simple camp tents have been erected, and a ring of solid wooden fences has been enclosed around the camp, and the outer edge of the wooden fence is also covered with sharp wooden stakes, and even a gate more than two zhang high has been erected in the north, and a blood-colored flag is planted straight on the gate, waving in the wind.

In the open space in front of the barracks, dozens of large clay pots were erected, the firewood under the clay pot was burning vigorously, the pot was bubbling with hot steam, and bursts of meat fragrance spread with the breeze, which was mouth-watering.

Not far in front of Zhang Feng, Dian Wei was looking at the front with a solemn expression, and suddenly, Dian Wei's face changed, and he said in a deep voice: "General, here!" ”

Zhang Feng's expression moved, a trace of imperceptible excitement flashed in his eyes, and he looked north leisurely, and when he looked at it, he saw that the field was calm, and two birds were startled from the wheat field and quickly flew into the nearby bushes and disappeared.

"Report ......"

A long and mournful howl accompanied by the sound of rapid horses' hooves swept through the sky from the north, and in an instant, a horse galloped from the official road and went straight to Zhang Feng.

"Report, I found the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Thief Brigade!"

"How many rides?"

Zhang Feng asked eagerly.

Tanma took a breath and responded, "At least five hundred riders!" ”

"Five hundred horsemen?"

Zhang Feng's expression suddenly perked up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands and said, "Okay! That's great! ”

Zhang Feng turned over and said sharply: "Open the gate and welcome the brothers back to the camp!" ”

"Open the gate...... Open the gate ......"

The loud and mournful roar pierced the silent sky in an instant, and the officers and soldiers guarding the gate could be clearly heard several miles away.

On the barracks gate.

Dian Wei's expression was cold, and he said sharply: "Open the gate!" ”

A group of officers and soldiers rushed up, removed the wooden stakes against the gate, slowly pulled the heavy gate open, and finally removed the antlers that blocked the gate, which was enough to accommodate dozens of horses to enter and exit at the same time.

"Spearmen...... Array! ”

I don't know when, a loud roar resounded throughout the barracks, and three hundred officers and soldiers rushed in, lined up in a neat military formation along both sides of the gate, spears piercing the sky, and the sharp blades of the spears showed off a cold glow.

"Archer...... Array! ”

At another command, two hundred archers ran out of the barracks and quickly lined up behind the spearmen in two groups.

In the sound of hurried horses' hooves, Zhang Feng rushed into the gate, seeing such a strict array of recruits, his eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise, given time, these five hundred people are enough to be one for ten.

"Boom ......"

In the deafening loud noise, a group of officers and soldiers finally rushed in, and the chaotic cavalry rushed through the gate and poured into the barracks like a tide.

While galloping on his horse, Huo Lei saw Zhang Feng at a glance, and couldn't help shouting: "Son, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”

Zhang Feng nodded awe-inspiringly, and when the last cavalry officer and soldier galloped into the gate, he was about to order the gate to be closed, but the young general standing on the gate had already taken a step ahead of him and shouted: "Spearmen...... Block the door! ”

The spearmen standing on both sides of the gate quickly converged in the middle, and in an instant, a large area of dense spears had blocked the wide gate tightly, if the Yellow Turban cavalry dared to rush forward, even if their horses could cross the bodies of the officers and soldiers, the spears of the officers and soldiers could also stab them through countless blood holes.

Outside the gate.

Zhang Bao raised his right arm suddenly, and a loud roar resounded through the sky: "Stop pursuing......"

The desolate trumpet sounded leisurely, and the surging Yellow Turban thieves were like a torrent hitting a strong wall, and in an instant they changed the direction of their advance, cut diagonally through the barracks, circled in a large circle, and returned to the front of the formation.

Five hundred steps away from the barracks, Zhang Bao slowly reined in his mount, and the hemp dog beat the horse to Zhang Bao, and said loudly: "General Digong, why don't you break the camp in one go?" ”

Zhang Bao's expression was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Ma Dog, didn't you find that there are longbowmen in the enemy camp?" ”

"Huh?"

Ma Gou's expression was cold, he squinted his eyes, and sure enough, he found that there was a faint flickering cold light behind the camp fence, and his face couldn't help but change greatly: "I didn't expect that there were archers among the officers and soldiers!" ”

Zhang Bao said coldly: "How many times have I told you, the officers and soldiers are far more cunning than we imagined, and when dealing with the officers and soldiers, we must be extremely careful, and the slightest negligence will cause irreparable disasters!" ”

Ma Gou said awe-inspiringly: "General Digong taught a lesson." ”

Zhang Bao's eyes froze, his nose suddenly fanned twice, and he asked Magou, "Well, what kind of fragrance is this?" ”

Ma Gou also sniffed a few breaths of the fragrance in the air, looked around, and suddenly pointed to the right side and barked: "General, look, there is cooking smoke by the river over there, which looks like the marching stove of the official army." ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Bao put his hand on the canopy and looked to the right, and sure enough, he saw a small river, and there was cooking smoke rising from the riverside.

Stimulated by this rich fragrance, a strong hunger suddenly hit, and Zhang Bao remembered that he had only cared about chasing the officers and soldiers, but he had not entered a drop of water for three hours.
