When he heard the words Youzhou reinforcements, not only the generals on both sides, but even Zhang Jiao, who had always been very calm, had a change in his face, and at present, the strength of the two sides was almost balanced, and the strength of the Yellow Turban Army was slightly stronger than Lu Zhi's army, but it was not much stronger.

At this time, no matter which side of the two sides came to send reinforcements, it would pose a great threat to the enemy, and Zhang Jiao was also asking for help from other places, but unfortunately the reinforcements had not yet arrived.

The reinforcements of the Youzhou official army had arrived before their own rescuers, and everyone couldn't help but say a sentence in their hearts: "The general trend is gone!" ”

When they heard that there were only 6,000 reinforcements in Youzhou, these people's faces suddenly became wonderful. Compared with the 150,000 army, the 6,000 men and horses are really insignificant.

The crowd asked in disbelief, "Is the news accurate?" ”

"Exactly, our brother saw it with his own eyes at the city gate yesterday evening." Tanma nodded affirmatively.

The generals discussed one after another, "At this critical moment, Liu Yan only sent 6,000 people to help, which is almost no different from not sending them. ”

"The imperial court is still engaged in party struggle, and all the powerful countries want to preserve their strength, which is our opportunity to achieve great causes."

Different from everyone's words of rejoicing mixed with arrogance, Zhang Jiao put the bronze jue in his hand on the table and stared at Tanma: "Can you hear who the commander of the army is?" ”

"Back to the lord, it's Zhao Yi of Zhuojun."

"Sss Hearing that the commander of the army was Zhao Yi, everyone took a deep breath, and even Zhang Jiao's face showed a look of jealousy. is too familiar with this name, Zhang Jiao and other generals. The demise of the Youzhou Yellow Turban Army is directly related to him, and the official said that Liu Yan used soldiers like a god to exterminate the Yellow Turban Army, but Zhang Jiao knew the truth from the mouth of the fleeing Yellow Turban Army, Liu Yan's army did not even release a feather arrow, from planning to combat, it was all done by Zhao Yi.

"If these 6,000 soldiers are in the hands of Liu Bei or Gongsun Zhan, I am not afraid. But with Zhao Yi in charge, it will be elusive. Zhang Jiao's eyes flashed and muttered, thinking about Zhao Yi's plan of action.

Although Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan are also the best in the world, they are both famous generals, not high-level strategists like Zhao Yi. Famous generals lead their troops over, and they can attack with more soldiers. But this kind of intelligent person, they won't fight with you face-to-face like this kind of world-famous general. It's going to play tricks and tricks on you.

Cheng Zhiyuan is also somewhat famous in the Yellow Turban Army, he can't go through a round in Zhao Yi's hands, and Zhao Yi's resourcefulness can be seen.

The relaxed expressions on everyone's faces had disappeared.

Waving his hand to let Tanma go down, Zhang Jiao looked at these generals with different faces: "Zhao Yi is not good, what are your countermeasures?" ”

A thin general had a fiery temper: "Go directly to kill Zhao Yi, I want to see what Zhao Yi's plan is to destroy my 150,000 army." This person and Cheng Zhiyuan are close friends, and when they got the news of Zhao Yi's arrival, they asked to go to war and cut off the head of Zhao Yi's kid to commemorate his brother.

It was not once or twice that Zhang Jiao sent troops to attack the county seat, and both the offensive and defensive sides suffered heavy casualties. Zhao Yi couldn't attack it when he was away, and now that Zhao Yi came here with six thousand people, the strength of defending the city increased suddenly. It's even more difficult to overcome at this point.

Discussing things with these reckless men is basically saying in vain, these people don't understand what it means to plan and then act. But Zhang Jiao has no choice, most of the people who are talented and have skills are recommended by the officials of various counties and counties to be filial piety. Zhang Jiao's subordinates also have a lot of generals, but few of them are strategic, and some don't even know a word.

Cheng Zhiyuan is one of the few people who knows some strategy, so Zhang Jiao dared to hand over the order to attack Youzhou to Cheng Zhiyuan. What I didn't expect was that Cheng Zhiyuan was planted in Zhao Yi's hands.

"General Ling, don't worry, now is not the time to attack." Zhang Jiao rejected General Ling's proposal, and seeing that General Ling's face was not very good, he comforted him with warm words: "When a close friend died, General Ling was sad, and it was understandable that he was eager for revenge. ”

These people had no good way, and Zhang Jiao could only ask the following Tanma to pay close attention to the movements of the official army in Guangzong County, especially Zhao Yi's army. This unit may not look small in number, but it is very mobile. Zhang Jiao was afraid that if he was negligent, Zhao Yi's army would appear in his camp one night and take him by surprise.

Zhang Jiao wrote the words "Zhao Yi" on the cloth, muttered, and said in his heart, will his great cause be bad in the hands of this person? Zhang Jiao coughed violently twice, his face suddenly turned pale because of his unpleasant breath, and he covered his chest with his hands and drank a sip of water, and his face became a little better.

After two hours, Zhang Jiao rubbed his chest with a faint pain, and was just about to go to bed to rest. Since the uprising, Zhang Jiao has had to personally take care of all matters, and he has already felt physically and mentally exhausted.

Tanma brought news again: "Lord, Zhao Yi and Hua Xiong, a total of 16,000 people, have been stationed in Zhou Village. ”

"Zhou Village?" Zhang Jiao's spirit suddenly returned, and he beckoned Tanma: "Please come to the tent to discuss matters." ”

After the generals came here, Zhang Jiao asked Tanma to repeat the news they had discovered.

Zhao Yi and the others have now entered Zhou Village, "Hua Xiong is ordering the soldiers to use sacks to build an earthen wall, and there is no news from Zhao Yi's place, but his troops and horses are still in Zhou Village and have not left. Tanma said again.

The generals present in that place in Zhou Village had all been there, and they had an unobstructed view from their horses. Zhao Yi actually stationed the army there, it was simply self-defeating. Not to mention that Zhao Yi has 16,000 people in Zhou Village, even if there are 30,000 or 40,000 people, everyone doesn't pay attention to them.

Zhang Jiao was wondering why Zhao Yi, who used soldiers like a god, would bring the army to death.

"According to our detailed work in the official army, Zhao Yi and Dong Zhuo love the general Huaxiong seems to have some holiday, and it was Dong Zhuo who recommended Zhao Yi to be stationed in Zhou Village." Tanma explained further. "And when Zhao Yi took office, he pulled 10,000 officers and soldiers from Huaxiong to go with him."

These words made Zhang Jiao understand, it turned out that Dong Zhuo was making a stumbling block. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Now is a good time, we can eliminate Zhao Yi and Hua Xiong's official army first." "At a critical time, even if you can't eliminate Zhao Yi, you must annihilate Huaxiong's department. Being able to eat part of the officers and soldiers is part of it.

Zhang Jiao really didn't pay attention to these soldiers led by Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong only defeated a few Yellow Turban troops sent out by himself to plunder grain and grass, but there were only a few hundred people. In the face of tens of thousands of troops, Hua Xiong was powerless at all.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and Zhang Jiao ordered the soldiers and horses stationed in Song Liu and An Lin to rush to Zhou Village and surround Zhao Yi and Hua Xiong.

After getting the news, Song Liu's defenders sent 30,000 troops to Zhou Village, and when they were walking halfway, they happened to encounter the imperial army led by Lu Zhi head-on.

Seeing the imperial army coming from a distance, and the number was more than himself, the Yellow Turban generals did not have the confidence to fight fiercely with the imperial army, and all the 30,000 people they had just brought out turned around and ran back.

As soon as he ran like this, his soldiers panicked, and Lu Zhi killed 5,000 people on the way to chase. The rest of the people hurriedly returned to unite with the original defenders, confronted the imperial army, and sent heralds to report the situation here to Zhang Jiao as soon as possible. Let him send troops to support.

Song Liu's Yellow Turban Army was blocked by Lu Zhi and others, but An Lin's Yellow Turban Army rushed here.

Looking at the army that was winding like a black line, Zhao Yi squinted his eyes, and Hua Xiong, who was standing on the platform, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and commanded the archers to go up the city wall.

The other party came fiercely, Zhao Yi felt that the earth was trembling, and beckoned his soldiers to prepare, Hua Xiong saw Zhao Yi gather his soldiers in more than a dozen circles, Hua Xiong couldn't figure out what Zhao Yi wanted to do, and saw that the Yellow Turban Army had reached the range of bows and arrows on his side, and ordered the archers to take the lead in attacking.

As soon as the rain of arrows passed, there were bursts of screams in the Yellow Turban Army, and many people fell to the ground.

The Yellow Turban General waved his hand for the archers to attack, and the rain of arrows like raindrops shot into the earthen city built by Hua Xiong, and there was a scream.

As for the rain of arrows that fell to Zhao Yi's side, most of them were blocked by shields. The Yellow Turban Army marched to a distance, and under the order of the general, launched an attack on Huaxiong and Zhao Yi's side.

Zhao Yi waved his hand like this, and his soldiers formed a circle, carrying spears and rushing towards the enemy.

A sneer appeared at the corner of the Yellow Turban General's mouth, and then he laughed at Zhao Yi's inability to dare to attack his 30,000 troops with these thousands of people alone. The Yellow Turbans rushed forward with a frenzied shout.

The spear stabbed at the soldier, and as soon as the spear on the Yellow Turban Army's side was handed out, he felt a pain in his chest. The other party's spear had already stabbed him in the chest.

The spear on Zhao Yi's side turned out to be nearly six feet longer than the ordinary spear on the Yellow Turban Army's side! collided with Zhao Yi's army, and the thousands of people who rushed to the front fell under this terrifying spear in one shot.

As soon as these soldiers entered the Yellow Turban camp, they immediately gathered into a ball, and saw the terrifying spears coming in and out, and from a distance they looked like huge moving hedgehogs.

It didn't take long for a circle of Yellow Turban soldiers to fall around, and everyone who was bluffing did not dare to move forward.

And the team in charge of the siege was much easier than the soldiers who surrounded these hedgehogs, although they also suffered casualties in the battle with the defenders of Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong's side was also losing manpower.

The round ball formed by Zhao Yi is like a hedgehog, making people feel like they have nowhere to start. Under the threat of that terrifying spear, the cavalry did not dare to step forward.

The general of the Yellow Turban Army of An Lin waved his hand and wanted to use the archers, but the ball formed by the other party spread out again and ran quickly towards the surroundings.

Entangled with your own army, if you fire arrows at this time, you can not only kill the enemy, but also kill your own people. "Surround Zhao Yi's department first, don't let him break through and escape." The general of the Yellow Turban Army stared at Zhao Yi's army, his eyes flashed, he was confident that he could avoid Zhao Yi's continuous spear assassination, but he was the only one in the army with this kind of skill. He didn't have the confidence to confront Zhao Yi's 6,000 soldiers.
