It is impossible to rebuild the trestle bridge, and it is not easy to swim across the water, this section of the water is very fast, and the soldiers are afraid that they will be washed down by this water before they can stand firm@

I raised my eyes and looked at the winding and undulating mountains on the opposite side, only afraid that there were dozens of miles of land. Zhang Jiao stroked his beard and ordered the soldiers: "Let's march north!" ”

At this time, the water flow is going from north to south, Zhang Jiao wants to find the source to pass through, this is only one of the reasons, and there is a more important reason, he is afraid that if he goes south, he will happen to run into Zhu Jun's army. Although this is very unlikely, it is impossible to be negligent in marching and fighting. Zhang Jiao had to take this possibility into account. The south is uncertain, but Zhang Jiao in the north can be sure that there is no main army of the official army, and the Taihang Mountain stretches for thousands of miles, so Zhang Jiao does not believe that he cannot find a breakthrough point.

The army walked less than a mile, and the front probed the horse to report: "General, there are many horseshoe prints ahead." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Jiao was surprised: "Take me over to have a look." The army set off with Zhang Jiao.

Looking at the grass trampled by the war horses in front of him, Zhang Liang speculated and said: "Big brother, this must be the official cavalry, then the path to Taihang Mountain must have been destroyed by this group of elite cavalry, big brother, why don't we turn around and walk south." Zhang Liang didn't think long-term about Zhang Jiao, he only saw that he couldn't enter Taihang Mountain after the official army elite cavalry, if he went south, there would be no official army elite cavalry to destroy his own department would definitely enter Taihang Mountain soon.

Zhang Jiao naturally did not agree to this strategy: "Now that the main forces of the official army are concentrated in the south, if our army turns around and goes south, it is very likely that it will plunge into the arms of Zhu Jun's army, and then our Yellow Turban Army will be in danger." "Compared with Zhu Jun's 30,000 army, the strength of the Yellow Turban Army is weaker, and in the face of absolute strength, even if the Yellow Turban Army fights desperately, it is not an opponent of a strong enemy.

"The reason why the elite cavalry of the officers and soldiers went north to destroy it means that they do not have a brigade of soldiers in the north, so they want to use this method to stop us. So the farther north we go, the safer it becomes. ”

Zhang Jiao's analysis was very thorough, which made all the Yellow Turban soldiers very convinced. Following behind Zhang Jiao, he continued to march north.

Zhang Jiao guessed correctly this time, when Zhao Yi was delivering the message, he had already asked the soldiers to tell Zhu Jun not to follow his pursuit route, to follow behind the butts of Zhao Yi and others, and it was always a step late to deal with the Yellow Turban Army. So Zhao Yi asked Zhu Jun to rush to Taihang Mountain and follow the mountain range to the north to find it.

Zhao Yi, who was seven miles away, saw Zhang Jiao's subordinates turning his head and heading towards the north, his eyes gloomy.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei were a little worried: "Bolai, the Yellow Turban Army has not marched south, should we lead our troops to attack the past." "Cao Cao means to rush over now, drag the Yellow Turban Army, and wait for Zhu Jun's troops to reinforce, Tanma has just come to the news, Zhu Jun's department immediately acted after receiving Zhao Yi's suggestion, discarding everything except weapons, and marching at full speed, it is less than a hundred miles away from here, and it is expected to reach it in more than two hours.

This news made the eyes of Huangfu Song and others shine with hope, and Liu Bei analyzed the current situation: "At this time, our army has 8,000 soldiers, and it is not a problem to delay the Yellow Turban Army for two hours. "This is no longer asking Zhao Yi, but making a decision.

Although there were 8,000 soldiers, they were divided into several parts. If these 8,000 people are Zhao Yi's elite soldiers. Zhao Yi didn't need to wait for Zhu Jun's army to come, with 8,000 elite soldiers, Zhao Yi had enough confidence to eat the 20,000 remnants of the Yellow Turban Army. But at this time, there was a shortage of elite soldiers in his hands, and only one-third of the five thousand elite cavalry brought by Zhao Yi were his own descendants.

At the beginning, Zhao Yi mentioned that all his soldiers would be on the war horses, but Zhu Jun and Sun Jian did not agree, for fear that their war horses would become Zhao Yi's after being ridden by Zhao Yi for two days, and Dong Zhuo's horses were not like this. Another reason is that Zhao Yi is afraid that Zhao Yi will snatch their credit.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Yi was very passive at this time, seeing that the people in front of him wanted to block the Yellow Turban Army head-on, but Zhao Yi did not agree: "The army is attacking the Yellow Turban Army head-on at this time, which is not good for our army." It could wipe out all of our troops. ”

In addition to the soldiers of Huangfu Song's headquarters, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's soldiers were recruited by themselves, and they suffered heavy losses in successive battles, and the two of them were naturally very heartbroken, but things have come to this point. Liu Bei and Cao Cao also had no choice, if they didn't do their best, the Yellow Turban Army escaped.

If the imperial court investigates it in other days, Huang Fu Song will be punished by the imperial court, but before the crime, Huang Fu Song will definitely find a good scapegoat, and Cao Cao and Liu Bei are the best candidates. Although several people are in the same boat now, if it is really a matter of life and death, who will take care of whom.

At this time, he heard that Zhao Yi had a way, and hurriedly asked: "What is Bolai's plan?" ”

"The army will advance at once, keep four miles with the Yellow Turban army, and then we will wait for our chance." Zhao Yi groped for the next illness, staring deeply into the distance.

"Opportunity? Where do we have a chance at this time? Liu Bei and Cao Cao sighed, thinking that Zhao Yi had a good way to attack, but they didn't expect Zhao Yi to let him wait for news. At this time, the officers and troops destroyed the path in front, although it made it impossible for the Yellow Turban Army to enter the Taihang Mountain, but it did not hinder the movement of the Yellow Turban Army. As long as the Yellow Turban Army is in action, the distance between Zhu Jun's army and the Yellow Turban Army has not changed in the slightest. If they continue to go on like this, they are afraid that Zhang Jiao's troops will go to the land of the Yi people, and the officials and soldiers will not surround them.

"The opportunity is in Gao Shun's hands." Zhao Yi explained, but didn't explain too much. It's not that Zhao Yi sold Guan Zi and didn't tell Gao Shun's plan, because Zhao Yi couldn't guess what fighter Gao Shun could grasp.

Liu Bei is very familiar with Gao Shun, Liu Bei and Zhao Yi saw Gao Shun at the same time, but Zhao Yi saw the pearls and took Gao Shun, a general, into his own use.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army had already walked through three places to enter the Taihang Mountain, but it was a pity that all the officers and soldiers in these three places were destroyed, and Zhang Jiao, who was on the sickbed, still maintained a calm and breezy face, and when he saw that this place was destroyed, he did not move: "Keep going." ”

This kind of thing happened one after another, which made Zhang Liang very angry, but he didn't have the slightest way: "Big brother, there are some places where our army can repair it, why don't you let the soldiers repair it?" ”

Zhang Jiao sighed slightly: "I have already seen several places before, and it takes time to repair it, and the last thing we can afford to delay at this time is time." As long as we stop, we are afraid that before the repair is completed, the officers and soldiers will rush over, and at that time, we will die without a place to bury. ”

At this time, Gao Shun and Guan Yu, who were destroying in front, were not easy to walk, destroying several places, and the soldiers under them were very tired.

"General Gao, at this time, the Yellow Turban Army is following us, and it is less than thirty miles away from our army." Guan Yu reminded Gao Shun, I'm afraid that in less than an hour, the Yellow Turban Army will catch up with him. When the time comes, how can the two thousand elite horsemen under his command escape the catastrophe.

Gao Shun did not panic in the slightest. I didn't see him in the slightest hurry, he looked like he was in a bamboo in his chest, staring at the undulating mountains in front of him and comparing them with the map above, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he drove his horse towards the mountains and persuaded Guan Yu at the same time: "General, don't panic, please come with me." ”

Guan Yu looked at Gao Shun and smiled bitterly, secretly saying that Gao Shun was simply a copy of Zhao Yi, the same arrogance, the same conceit, but in Guan Yu's eyes, Zhao Yi was arrogant and conceited, but he had this capital. It's just that Guan Yu doesn't know how much Gao Shun has learned from Zhao Yi.

Coming to this mountain, Gao Shun looked inside, the narrow mountain gap, the three people walked a little crowded, but through this gap, the inside was very spacious.

Guan Yu looked at the map before coming, this place does not seem to be connected to Taihang Mountain, but a dead end, Guan Yu frowned slightly: "General Gao, this is a dead end, at this moment the Yellow Turban Army is almost to our side, we should go to the front to destroy the road to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from entering Taihang Mountain." "Now the situation is urgent, who has the kung fu to watch the mountain view here.

Gao Shun did not listen to Guan Yu's words and went to the front to destroy the road, but ordered his soldiers to go into the gap of the mountain with him, and told Guan Yu: "General, our soldiers are here to beat the Yellow Turban Army!" After telling Guan Yu, and then whispering a few words in the ears of the soldiers, he saw a hundred soldiers leave the team under the leadership of a hundred commanders, leading their troops to climb the mountains on both sides.

Guan Yu glanced at Gao Shun in disbelief: "There are only two thousand soldiers in our department, how can we confront the Yellow Turban Army." And this place is not connected to Taihang Mountain, and the Yellow Turban Army may not come here, if the Yellow Turban Army abandons us and enters Taihang Mountain from elsewhere, we will die and forgive their sins. ”

"General Guan, rest assured, I know this matter in my heart. And the Yellow Turban military minister that the general was worried about did not believe that this was the main road to enter the Taihang Mountain, and I had already considered it. Gao Shun turned over and dismounted, pointing to the narrow passage into here, "As long as our army is here, Zhang Jiao will believe it." Then Gao Shun whispered his plan to Guan Yu.

After listening to this, Guan Yu looked at Gao Shun twice, but he didn't expect Gao Shun to come up with such a clever plan. If the eldest brother could help Gao Shun take revenge that day, this person would now belong to his own camp. But time cannot be left behind, and there is no turning back. Guan Yu could only secretly regret it at this time. didn't say anything flattering, and did what Gao Shun told me.

The Yellow Turban Army was stepping up to this side at this time, and Tanma ran to report the news with a happy face: "General, the elite cavalry of the officers and soldiers who have found the destruction of the path three miles ahead!" ”

This news made Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang smile on their faces, they finally rushed to the front of the official army, and it would take time to destroy the path, Zhang Jiao was glad that he did not spend time in the previous place, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers: "Advance at full speed and destroy this official army!" ”

Gao Shun, Guan Yu and others were filling the passage with stones, trying to block the passage, but halfway through the matter, they heard chaotic footsteps. Guan Yu's face changed, and he led the soldiers to run out to watch, and saw tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops rushing towards his own department!
