Stimulated by money, all the Yellow Turban soldiers seemed to suddenly come to life, and the officers and soldiers outside the city began to attack, and the Yellow Turban soldiers shouted, raised their bows and arrows, and were about to shoot, but just when the officers and soldiers rushed to the shooting range, they suddenly stopped. Retreat to the rear in an orderly manner, this time, it was still a feint.

Zuo Zhangba was dumbfounded, the Yellow Turban Army on the city wall roared angrily, some of them wept bitterly, sat on the head of the city, and wept loudly, when they finally gathered the last courage and prepared to fight the enemy to the death, they left so lightly, all faith seemed to collapse at this moment, and the courage left them.

Shohachi Zuo gritted his teeth, trembling with anger.

"What a villain, a sinister and vicious villain, a cowardly villain... I swear to kill you... I'm going to kill you!!! ”

'One drum, then decline, three and exhaustion', whether it is Zeng Yu or Guo Jia, they all know that the Yellow Turban Army must still want to fight in the end. But now, they are not in a hurry to attack, the Yellow Turban Army is besieged in the city, and they can't escape at this time, if they abandon the city at the beginning and flee, then there is still a glimmer of hope, but now the Yellow Turban Army has become a real sick cat, even if they go out of the city, with their current state, they can't escape the pursuit of the cavalry battalion at all.

At this time, everyone was convinced by Guo Jia, and even said that they were a little afraid, and they even saw a Yellow Turban sergeant roaring frantically just now, jumping down from the city wall and committing suicide. This kind of false siege, Guo Jia only lasted for six days, the Guishan people couldn't stand it, they knew how terrible it was, some of these soldiers didn't close their eyes for three or four days, and some kept being awakened in their sleep.

The Clothless Army made three all-army sorties during the day, each time making the Yellow Turbans feel like they were facing a great enemy, which made them muster up the courage again and again, and tried to fight with a trace of blood. But every time it was like clenching a fist on cotton, and at night, almost all the Yellow Turban troops had no strength, no, it should be said that there was no trace of morale.

If the morale is measured, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army dropped to fifty at first, and when the whole army of the unclothed army was dispatched during the day, they exploded to eighty with the will in their hearts, but soon fell back to thirty. If this goes on three times, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army has been lost.

On the evening of the seventh day, Zeng Yu gave the order to attack the city.

Under the real offensive of the officers and soldiers, the Yellow Turban Army was breached without even being able to organize effective resistance. The left bearded Zhangba in the county government was a little dazed, his eyes were red, and his ears were still buzzing, he was so tired, the soldiers in the whole city were like this, tired, and had no intention of fighting, when they really faced the general attack of the Han army, they were just at a loss.

Zuo Zhangba was captured by Wang Qingsheng and brought to Zeng Yu. Zeng Yu glanced at him, and felt some sympathy for this guy's experience, and he asked him to take him down and imprison him, optimistic that he wouldn't let him die.

Because the Yellow Turban Army formed a strong resistance, the fighting in Changzi County soon stopped. However, in order to prevent the remnants of the Yellow Turban soldiers in the city, Zeng Yu asked people to strengthen vigilance, and at the same time strictly forbade soldiers to disturb the people.

The next day, when the people of Changzi County woke up, they found that the people patrolling and guarding the county town had changed, and they were flying the banner of the Great Han. And the Yellow Turban Army, which was showing off its might in the county before, has disappeared at this time. Through the list released by the county government, the people knew that the original eldest son county was back under the control of the government.

In the original county town of Taishou Mansion, the place where Cui Ming worked was originally the county guard, is now temporarily used as an office by Zeng Yu.

All the commanders of the unclothed army received Zeng Yu's order and rushed to the county guard mansion early in the morning. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zeng Yu looked at them and said, "Everyone has been busy all night, and you should have been allowed to rest more, but now there are many things, and we have to discuss how we will act next, so everyone will work hard." ”

"Big brother is too worried, as long as you give the order, we are duty-bound." Wang Qing took the lead in saying that he was beginning to enter the prime of life, and his energy was very strong, and in last night's siege, everyone didn't fight much at all, and they broke through the city directly.

"Commander Wang, don't be impatient, I think we should take care of it at this time. Some of our soldiers are experiencing such continuous fighting for the first time, and some soldiers are beginning to waver, if they go through a repair, it can not only stabilize the morale of the army, but also can break up and digest the captured prisoners, so that our strength will be strengthened again. Guo Jia proposed.

When Zeng Yu heard this, he asked Wang Qing: "What the military advisor said is true, are the soldiers under our command still stable?" ”

Wang Qing knew the seriousness of this problem, and hurriedly replied: "Big brother, there are a few soldiers in the army who are war-weary, but it does not affect the overall situation, these people are all newcomers who have been accepted after these few battles, and it is inevitable that there will be such a situation." ”

"You commanders must appease your soldiers and tell them that all the rewards for their exploits will definitely be distributed to everyone, and I don't want anything to happen to the rewards for the merits of the soldiers." Zeng Yu said solemnly.

"Yes!" The commanders all looked straight and stood up and replied loudly.

"Fengxiao, if we follow your plan to temporarily repair, in case the Yellow Turban reinforcements from Jizhou enter Shangdang, and the northern counties still haven't recovered, I'm afraid the situation will be unfavorable to us at that time." Zeng Yu asked Guo Jia.

"Don't worry, the yellow scarves in Jizhou don't have much energy to pay attention to us now. Judging from the current situation, although the Yellow Turban in Jizhou is nominally the supreme commander of the Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban Army has been divided from a whole into three major departments and countless small departments, and there is no unified command among them. In addition to the fact that they were fighting on their own, after losing the help of the family, whether it was the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou or the Yellow Turbans in Yingchuan and other places, their goals had changed from subverting the Han Dynasty to separating one side. Guo Jia analyzed to Zeng Yu.

"In this way, Zhang Jiao will not continue to attack Luoyang, and our Shangdang County will not be captured by the Yellow Turban Army again." Zeng Yu's eyes lit up, and then analyzed.

"Yes, what the lord should really do at this time is to turn our victory into good news, and escort him to the capital together with Zuo Zhangba, and seize the first merit of suppressing the Yellow Turban thief. Otherwise, after a while, good news from other places will come, and our victory will not be so important. ”

Zeng Yu was also shocked when he heard Guo Jia's words, he only cared about exterminating Zuo Zhangba before, ignoring other places. According to the time, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun will soon also burn down the Changshe and defeat the Yellow Turban Army led by Bo Cai and others.

He thought for a moment, and then said, "I plan to go to the capital in person, and I will hand it over to the military advisor here." ”

"Lord, what are you going to do with this eldest son county?" Guo Jia asked.

Changzi County was captured by the Yellow Turban Army before, and then the Eight Soldiers of Zuo Zhangzhang were defeated and retreated here. Because of the discipline of the Yellow Turban Army, almost all the families in the city were swept away, and only some ordinary people survived.

Zeng Yu knew that Guo Jia would ask this, in fact, he had already considered it after capturing the eldest son county, and now Guo Jia asked, he said directly: "If Tianyu does not take it, he will be blamed." Of course we can't give up in Changzi County, I let Fengxiao you stay, that is, let you completely control Changzi County in our hands, this time I will go to the capital, only lead the personal soldiers under my command, and leave the rest to you to command. ”

"No!" Of course, Guo Jia was happy to accept the order, and he was originally worried that Zeng Yu would bring the troops back after he asked him to repair.

"Changzi County is now short of food, and before I go to the capital this time, I will go back to Anping first, and let Zijin arrange for someone to deliver a batch of grain and grass. Fengxiao, you must appease the people in the city, and guard against the sneak attack of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in the northern counties. Zeng Yu commanded.

"Big brother, I ask for orders to lead the Ruishi Battalion to take the Huguan. Huguan was originally the barrier of Shangdang County, and now it is still in the hands of the Yellow Turban Thieves, although the military division analyzes that the other party is unlikely to send troops into Shangdang, but if Huguan is recaptured, we can be regarded as truly worry-free. Wang Qing suddenly stood up and asked.

When Zeng Yu heard this, he thought it was not bad, so he said: "Yes, the pot must be in our hands." In this way, after I arrived in Anping, I asked Zijin to send a team over, and when they arrived, the Ruishi battalion and the Wushu battalion went together to take Huguan. “

"Subordinates take orders!" Wang Qing and Pei Yuanshao received orders together, and the two of them did not have positions, so they could only claim to be subordinates.

Everyone is a decisive person, and time is pressing, after Zeng Yu set the tone, he let his personal soldiers start to pack up and prepare.

However, now the world is chaotic, and it is not as good as the last time he went to the capital, so the personal soldiers under Zeng Yu have also been expanded, reaching 500 people. The hundreds of new soldiers were all soldiers who were very brave and had high fighting quality in these battles. With the escort of these 500 people, Zeng Yu barely had a guarantee of safety when he set off this time.

A day later, Zeng Yu was escorted by 500 personal soldiers, escorting Zuo Zhangba, the yellow turban commander, and boxes of seized property, out of Changzi County, and returned straight to Anping County.

As for Guo Jia, who stayed in Changzi County, he couldn't be idle. The county seat of Changzi County was taken, but outside the county seat, the people who were not coerced by the Yellow Turban Army were all living on the mountain, and some ruffians and hooligans took the opportunity to gang up to occupy a mountain at will and started a business without capital.

Zeng Yu asked him to completely control Changzi County in his hands, mainly hoping that he would exterminate these people who took the opportunity to make trouble, firstly, to increase the population, and secondly, after the law and order was good, the people could live and work in peace and contentment.

This time from Anping County, Zeng Yu wiped out the main force of the Yellow Turban thieves who entered the Kou, and took the opportunity to grasp the capital of the county. Moreover, it has formed a good relationship with Tongba and Xiangyuan counties, and it can be said that all the goals before the expedition have been achieved, and now what we have to do is to obtain the approval of the imperial court and become the rightful master here.
