The figures of Yan Zheng and hundreds of his guards disappeared into the night, and the strategists immediately gathered the soldiers: "All the soldiers of our department are wearing their clothes backwards and approaching the headquarters of the general of the earth. The strategist's move was not to start a war with Zhang Bao's Yellow Turban Army, but to spread the news of Zhang Bao's death as soon as possible, causing chaos in the Yellow Turban Army. As long as the morale of the Yellow Turban Army is disturbed, the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be defeated. As for this matter of killing the enemy, it is naturally left to the officers and soldiers.

After a day of fighting, Yangcheng finally regained a short period of calm, the streets were full of blood, Zhang Bao's troops had not made the slightest progress in fighting for a day, did they really want to implement the strategy that the strategists said and leave those soldiers in Yangcheng?

Zhang Bao was looking forward to a miracle at this time, but the ruthless reality shattered his illusions. The strategist advised Zhang Bao again: "General, this matter is a foregone conclusion, and there is only one way to do it." ”

The strategist was urging Zhang Bao to act, and Zhang Bao waved his hand impatiently: "Sir, needless to say, I did what you said." ”

At this time, Zhang Bao was angry, and the strategist didn't care about Zhang Bao's words, but still admonished as always: "There is a fierce battle tomorrow, which needs to be commanded by the general, and it is getting late at this time, please go back to the house to rest." "Tomorrow's breakthrough battle is very important to the Yellow Turban Army, so there can be no mistake, and the strategist wants Zhang Bao to recuperate and deal with tomorrow's battle of life and death.

Zhang Bao knew that the strategist was thinking about himself, so he nodded and said, "Okay." Seeing Zhang Bao enter the house, the strategist walked out of the door. Seeing that there were still many people in the Yellow Turban Army standing guard, he beckoned the soldiers to come over: "Only send 200 people to patrol, and the rest of the soldiers will return to the camp to rest." And he commanded the soldiers not to disarm.

The soldier took the order and walked down, and the strategist nodded secretly, only when the soldier rested and rushed to kill in the coming day, there was a chance of victory. This matter is a foregone conclusion, and after the strategists arranged the affairs of Zhang Bao's department, they turned around and walked towards Yan Zheng's department, and now it is time to inform Yan Zheng.

Halfway through the walk, the strategist saw a team of hundreds of people turning out of the alley in front of him, and by the cold moonlight, the strategist saw that it was Yan Zheng who led the team.

Yan Zheng didn't expect to meet a strategist here, so he glanced at the two soldiers around him and asked them to stand by. He smiled and walked two steps: "It's almost late at night, why hasn't Mr. rested yet?" Seeing that his soldiers had surrounded the adviser and a dozen of his soldiers, his face was even more joyful.

"I was trying to discuss something with the general, but I didn't want to meet again, where is the general going?" The strategist glanced at Yan Zheng, and was slightly surprised that Yan Zheng's department surrounded himself in the middle. He even felt a faint aura of slaughter swirling through him.

"The last general has a strategy to break the enemy, so he went to report to the general." Yan Zheng smiled and said his purpose.

The strategist looked at Yan Zheng with a smile: "Tell me the strategy, General Yan Zheng doesn't need to bring hundreds of soldiers." Could it be that the general has other purposes? At this time, the strategist already had doubts about Yan Zheng, so he tested Yan Zheng with words.

Yan Zheng was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and explained: "The officials and soldiers in the city are rampant, and it doesn't hurt to bring more soldiers." ”

Capturing the cold gaze that flashed in Yan Zheng's eyes, the strategist immediately understood what was going on, and just wanted to call his soldiers to rush out and report to Zhang Bao.

But the action was a little slower than Yan Zheng, who had already taken the lead, and the strategist and more than a dozen soldiers under him were all killed by the soldiers. Yan Zheng wiped the blood stains on the sword's body, looked at the corpse of the strategist on the ground and snorted softly: "Go." ”

There are nearly 200 soldiers guarding Zhang Bao's courtyard, especially after Yangcheng was captured by the official army, these guards are more defensive, and they must not have weapons on their hands when they go to visit Zhang Bao.

But this ban is useless for Yan Zheng, because Yan Zheng is the captain of this personal guard, and naturally has the right and obligation to protect Zhang Bao with a weapon. So when he saw Yan Zheng entering with a sword, he didn't ask, because he should have brought a sword.

Yan Zheng learned from the guards that Zhang Bao had entered the house to rest. When he came to Zhang Bao's bedroom, he said to a few guards guarding the door: "I have important military affairs to discuss with the general." Evacuate elsewhere first. ”

In response to Yan Zheng's order, these guards bowed down and left here.

Yan Zheng glanced around at no one, and carefully opened the door of Zhang Bao's bedroom, and the smell of alcohol rushed to his face. I think Zhang Bao couldn't sleep and drank some water and wine. Yan Zhengxin said, God help me. Carefully came to Zhang Bao's bed.

The cold moonlight poured in from the window, reflecting the shadows of the things in the room, and Yan Zheng, who raised his long sword, could vaguely see Zhang Bao's face.

Yan Zheng hesitated in his heart, it was the person in front of him who brought him to the position of the leader of the Yellow Turban Dafang. At this time, the big mistake has not yet been made, and it is still too late to turn back.

And at this time, an earth-shattering shout of killing suddenly sounded in the city, and the officials and soldiers made a move! Zhang Bao was awakened by the earth-shattering shouting and killing, and saw a figure holding a sword standing next to his bed, and subconsciously startled.

Yan Zheng saw that the matter had been revealed, and when Zhang Bao opened his eyes, the long sword in his hand stabbed down, and stabbed several swords on Zhang Bao's body one after another, seeing that Zhang Bao had died of anger, Yan Zheng exhaled deeply.

Return the sword to the sheath and get out of here quickly. Yan Zheng pretended to have nothing to do and came to the street, and as soon as he gathered his subordinates lurking in the surrounding alleys, there was chaos in the courtyard, thinking that those guards had found Zhang Bao's body.

Yan Zheng didn't pay attention to the chaotic guards in the courtyard, but beckoned his soldiers: "It's time to act!" "When I brought these soldiers here, I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, and the guards chased and killed me. At this time, since he got out unharmed, he naturally didn't have to deal with the guards inside.

His soldiers immediately shouted: "Zhang Bao is dead!" These four short words caused an uproar in the Yellow Turban Army, causing the Yellow Turban Army to retreat one after another.

Zhang Bao's Yellow Turban Army was disorganized because there was no one to lead, and the soldiers were chaotic and lost the courage to fight, coupled with the non-resistance of Yan Zheng's department. The remaining Yellow Turban Army naturally could not stop the wolf-like impact of the officers and soldiers, and after two hours of melee, the officers and troops finally succeeded in annihilating the Yellow Turban Army, and the officers and soldiers in this battle killed 5,000 enemies and captured 15,000 people.

Zhao Yi and Sun Jian came to Zhang Bao's courtyard, and saw a lot of Yellow Turban soldiers kneeling on the ground, Cheng Pugang wanted to order these Yellow Turban soldiers to be beheaded to show the public. Half of his hands were raised, but he was stopped by Zhao Yi: "General Cheng, stop." These Yellow Turbans have given up resistance, why should they be killed? ”

Cheng Pu bowed down and replied: "The general doesn't know, these people are all soldiers loyal to Zhang Bao, and when we attacked the courtyard, they killed and injured many of our soldiers, and it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart." ”

Zhao Yi stared at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were pressed to the ground by the soldiers, and his eyes flashed: "These people are also loyal and brave. Brother Wentai, can you give Bo Lai some thin noodles, spare these soldiers from dying, and Bo Lai will bring them into the military camp to teach a lesson, and give General Cheng Pu his anger.

"Absolutely." Sun Jian agreed without thinking about it, Zhao Yi valued the loyalty and courage of these people and wanted to take them for his own use. These people have good combat strength and are loyal to Zhang Bao, although Sun Jian likes this kind of soldier, but he can't dissolve the resentment in the hearts of these soldiers.

Sun Jian instructed Cheng Pu to send these to Zhao Yi's military camp, but these people were quite stubborn and struggled, and the two soldiers could barely hold it down. Seeing this situation, Cheng Pu proposed to Zhao Yi: "General, these people are all dead soldiers, and there will be endless troubles after entering the camp, and the last general proposes to behead these people." ”

"Since Brother Wentai handed over these soldiers to me, General Cheng Pu doesn't have to bother, I will deal with it." Saying that, Zhao Yi waved his hand and called the five hundred original Liukou army over, "Incorporate these people into your army and take them down to train well." ”

Several hundred commanders waved their hands and asked their soldiers to bring these Yellow Turban soldiers back. For those struggling Yellow Turban Army, the soldiers did not talk nonsense, and kicked them in the belly with one kick, allowing people to pull them away.

With these 200 soldiers joining, the team has reached nearly 700 people. These dead soldiers were the backbone of Zhao Yi's hands, and for this reason, Zhao Yi personally named this unit "Cowardly Xue Army". It is not subject to the orders of any generals, and is directly under the command of Zhao Yi.

The two of them, together with several lieutenant generals, came to Zhang Bao's house, and when they saw Zhang Bao's body, Zhao Yi and Sun Jian both had smiles on their faces, Sun Jian pulled out his long sword and planned to cut off Zhang Bao's head, but was stopped by Zhao Yi: "Let the general behead." ”

Zhu Jun personally beheaded Zhang Bao, his face was full of joy, and he immediately reported the matter to the imperial court. The officials and soldiers of Yangcheng were jubilant. "It's a pity that our wine collection has been refined by Bolai, and we can't drink a glass of celebration wine, which is a fly in the ointment." Zhu Jun sighed.

As for these prisoners of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhao Yi only needed 3,000 people, and the rest were divided between Zhu Jun and Sun Jian, but the original Yellow Turban general Yan Zheng did not agree and made trouble in the camp: "General, Zhou Wen promised the last general not to break up the soldiers of our army, why is he rebelling now?" ”

It is impossible for the Yellow Turbans to command the former soldiers. Yan Zheng is a scheming person, which can be seen from killing Zhou Wenbo to win Zhang Bao's trust, and Zhao Yi and the three of them have no good impression of this kind of person who kills the master to survive. Since Yan Zheng can turn his back on Zhang Bao, he may betray himself in the face of absolute interests in the future. At the beginning, in order to break Zhang Bao, he naturally begged for strict government, but at this time Zhang Bao was extinguished, and strict government was useless. Zhu Jun's attitude towards Yan Zheng suddenly became very cold: "General Yan Zheng, this is the rule in our army, and we must follow it." I have not pursued the general's killing of the county Cheng Zhouwen is already very magnanimous, and I hope the general will not gain an inch. ”

Yan Zheng understood, the official army was crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and he wanted to contradict two sentences and state his exploits, but he didn't dare to say it, at this time, his soldiers had been scattered by the officers and soldiers to various places, if he spoke against him, Zhu Jun might take the opportunity to kill him. He snorted and walked down.

Zhu Jun took a sip of water and wine: "I don't know how to lift." ”

At this time, the Malay newspaper was explored: "General, the envoy of General Huangfu has something important to ask to see!" ”
