Chapter 8: The Great Defeat

said that Zhu Jun was here, and the situation he encountered was similar to that of Lu Zhi. However, Zhu Jun went to Hangu Pass, passed through Wuguan, and went to Wancheng, because Zhu Jun took this road, there are more mountains, so the speed of advance is not as fast as Lu Zhi, and the situation in Wancheng is not as anxious as the situation in Hebei, so Zhu Jun is just advancing at a normal marching speed.

However, Zhu Jun has also gone through more than ten battles here, but Zhu Jun's situation is different from Lu Zhi's. Lu Zhi encountered the Yellow Turban Army. Zhu Jun encountered more bandits who occupied the mountains as kings.

When the army is dispatched, how can there be no blood, and as a soldier, it is originally my job to suppress bandits. It can also train the soldiers, so that the road to Wancheng will not be too boring. Zhu Jun chose the bandits along the way to open the knife.

Zhu Jun found Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong, and led people out to fight all the bandits he encountered along the way. Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong took the order and left. As a top general in the Three Kingdoms period, there is naturally no problem with a group of bandits who are not in the climate, and the army has been swept away by the autumn wind, crushing all the way.

Wherever Zhu Jun's army passed, the people were rejoicing, but the bandits were miserable. Originally, they were a group of people who couldn't survive, and they usually robbed homes at most, and they didn't dare to hurt people's lives, for fear of attracting the government's all-out encirclement and suppression. I know that I met Zhu Jun, a person who doesn't play cards according to the long reason. Wherever Zhu Jun's army went, the bandits got the news and fled in advance. So much so that later Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong often rushed over, and the cottage had been set on fire by the bandits themselves. They could only return empty-handed. However, the troops were trained. Moreover, the number of troops remained at 6,000 at the time of departure.

Lu Su looked at the morale of the army in front of him, which was completely different from when he first set off from Luoyang two days ago. Riding on the horse, he hugged his fists and said respectfully: The general still has a way, and the army has no losses, but the soldiers have already been trained. Not to mention the hefty seizures. After speaking, he looked at the grain truck behind the troops. I saw that the grain pile on the grain truck was high, and there was more grain than when I first set off from Luoyang. Zhu Jun looked at Lu Su and smiled kindly, and said disapprerovitically: These are all small tricks, even without me, I believe that the two generals Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong would do the same. After speaking, he looked at Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong in front. Now he has a deep admiration for Liu Xie, and he is also very curious about where Liu Xie found so many outstanding generals and such an excellent strategist as Lu Su. Because of Zhu Jun's peace, the generals and soldiers of this army have gotten along very well from the time they set off to the present.

Zhu Jun saw that it was still early, so he asked the herald officer around him to give the order, and the army continued to advance and rest in Nanxiang tonight. After finishing speaking, he walked before beating the horse's head, and Lu Su and the soldiers around him also beat their horses to follow Zhu Jun. There was a burst of dust, witnessing the conversation just now.

As for Huangfu Song, it is not going well. Huangfu Song walked Yongning, passed Yiyang, and went to Yingchuan. But Huangfu Song's army suffered a major defeat before it reached Yingchuan. I don't know how to go on the road ahead.

It turned out that after Chen Qun returned to Yingchuan to pay tribute to the deceased, he left Yingchuan and went to Jizhou to join Zhangjiao. After Chen Qun found Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, he easily gained Zhang Jiao's trust. After all, it turns out that the Chen family has always been Zhang Jiao's supporters. And now Chen Qun has been wiped out. Zhang Jiao also received the news. Zhang Jiao, who was still secretly pitying, was overjoyed after seeing Chen Qun. Originally, he had always known that Chen Qun was talented, and he was still thinking about how to get Chen Qun to follow him, but he didn't expect Chen Qun to take the initiative to find him. Such a person who knew it before, and now has a deep hatred with the Han court, is simply the best right-hand man.

So Zhang Jiao immediately reported twelve points of enthusiasm to Chen Qun, and asked Chen Qun to be responsible for contacting Qu Shuai in various places on weekdays, and now after the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao sent Chen Qun to the Yingchuan area, and let Chen Qun be in charge of the Yellow Turban military objects in the Yingchuan area.

And Chen Qun is also talented. In just two months after coming to Yingchuan, he turned the Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area into his own private army. The Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area completely did not listen to the original Qu Shuai's orders. Only obey Chen Qun's orders. In just two months, Chen Qun was able to control the Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area. There is no hindrance at all.

After Zhang Jiao's order to raise the incident, Chen Qun knew that this would attract the encirclement and suppression of the court soldiers. Therefore, Chen Qun sent people to pay close attention to the news of the court near Luoyang. As soon as the counterinsurgency army in Luoyang set off, Chen Qun received the news here. Later, Chen Qun sprinkled spies at various intersections to pay attention to the movements of the imperial army.

Chen Qun didn't expect that one of the three-way troops sent by the imperial court would come straight to Yingchuan. Seeing this army, Chen Qun had already made up his mind. He is too familiar with the Yingchuan area, and in Yingchuan, the time and place are favorable, and he completely occupies it. What everyone didn't know was that Zhou Zhidao, the county magistrate of Yingchuan County, secretly said that he could welcome the Yellow Turban Army into the city at any time. It was Chen Qun who did not let Zhou Zhidao change the flag immediately in order to design Huangfu Song.

After Huangfu Song's army of 6,000 people passed through Yongning, Chen Qun began to plan to send some peasants who had just joined the Yellow Turban Army to meet the enemy. Where is the opponent of Huangfu Song's elite army who has just put down his hoe, naturally he will be defeated by the slaughtered, and the corpses will be scattered all over the field. Chen Qun still let the newly formed troops face Huangfu Song's army, and the result was a big defeat. If it weren't for Chen Qun's prestige being high enough, the troops would have mutinied. Even now, Chen Qun has some signs of not being able to command the troops.

But Chen Qun looked at the Huangfu Song army opposite, the morale became more and more vigorous, from the morale like a rainbow slowly became arrogant, and the troops became more and more undisciplined, when he saw the Yellow Turban Army, he directly pounced on it, Chen Qun nodded, he knew that the time was ripe, and he could vomit at any time with the Huangfu Song army.

The night after Huangfu Song's army set out from Luoyang. Chen Qun once again convened a meeting of his generals at all levels to discuss military plans. As soon as the generals at all levels heard that Chen Qun was going to hold a meeting again, they were a little afraid of entering Chen Qun's Chinese army tent. But the fate of the army was difficult to disobey, and in the end they still came to the big tent slowly. Looking at the faces of his subordinates, Chen Qun knew that the anger of his subordinates had reached its peak. So Chen Qun didn't say much nonsense, looked at everyone and directly gave an order and said: I order, tomorrow the army will continue to meet the enemy, and this time the whole army will press on.

As soon as they heard that it was the whole army pressing, Chen Qun's generals made a fuss, originally they thought that this time it was the same as before, choosing an unlucky guy from among them to carry out the task, but they didn't expect it to be pressed by the whole army, according to the previous situation, do all the people sitting here still have a way to live? So the generals in the big tent quarreled.

As soon as Chen Qun saw that things had developed to such a place, he was not afraid that someone would leak secrets, so he revealed his plan to everyone. After listening to Chen Qun's plan, the generals under him calmed down.

The next day, Chen Qun still let the Yellow Turban that had just been formed go out to meet the enemy, as soon as the two sides came into contact, the Yellow Turban Army was defeated, Huangfu Song's army chased the Yellow Turban Army all the way, chased to a pass, the general of the Han army stopped, saw the Han army stopped, Chen Qun was secretly anxious, all his arrangements were behind the pass, if the Han army chased here and did not chase, then all the preparations he made were wasted. Fortunately, the Han army finally lived up to expectations and crossed the pass and chased after them.

Chen Qun waited until all the troops pursuing by the Han army crossed the pass, and then asked the herald around him to give the order and set the fire on fire. The herald immediately went down to give the order. After a while, smoke rose from the valley, and then countless Yellow Turban troops appeared in all directions, and for a time the Han army was in a situation of being surrounded. Chen Qun continued to order the siege of the Han army. For a while, there was a shout of killing in the valley, and a Han army had to face the siege and killing of several Yellow Turban troops at the same time, and they could hide from this person, but others came to kill with knives. So as soon as the two sides came into contact, the Han army fell into an absolute disadvantage. Chen Qun continued to wave his hand, letting all his troops go out and besiege him with all his might, because he had roughly counted them just now, and there were only about 3,000 people surrounded.

At this time, I heard the herald next to him shouting, General, look. Chen Qun looked out, but there was a puff of smoke and dust in the distance, obviously a troop was rushing towards him, thinking about the number of Han troops he had just calculated. Chen Qun secretly said that it was a pity, and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. As the sound of gold sounded on the battlefield, the two troops slowly disengaged from contact, and finally Chen Qun led his troops in the direction of Yingchuan. Leave behind the dead bodies of the Han army.
