Zhang Bao stroked the map, looked at the surrounding counties, raised his eyes and asked the adjutant generals and strategists around him: "Sir and generals, where do you think we should capture at this time?" At this time, the new defeat of the official army and the low morale were the opportunities for Zhang Bao's development.

The strategist looked at the map, thinking about the advantages of the enemy and me, and already had a plan in his heart, just said the strategy in his heart, saw the smile on the corner of Zhang Bao's mouth, and stroked his beard and smiled: "The general already has a plan, why do you need me to wait for more." ”

Zhang Bao smiled and glanced at this strategist deeply: "I want to take Yangcheng first, there are several counties around us, Yangcheng is the closest to our army, and there are not many defending soldiers, so it is our best choice." "The Yellow Turban Army lost most of the elite in the battle with the official army, and although it won the victory at this moment, the imperial court would not give Zhang Bao a chance to breathe. If Zhu Yi's subordinates did not have such a capable person as Zhao Yi, Zhang Bao would not choose to attack Yangcheng, but would choose to take advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilate all Zhu Yi's troops.

But with the variable of Zhao Yi, Zhang Bao had to plan carefully, although Zhu Yi's department failed at this time, he lost some soldiers. But at this time, the officers and soldiers were not much less than their own troops. If Zhao Yi used trickery to defeat him again, then his own department might be in ruins.

This is a bet, a bet that Zhang Bao can't afford to lose, and because he had failed miserably under Zhao Yi before, he fought against Zhao Yi again, Zhang Bao was inevitably uneasy in his heart. It is better to take advantage of this opportunity to capture a county town first, first, you can use this as a base to call on the remnants of the original Yellow Turban to vote, and then with a county town with high walls and thick walls, you can attack and retreat and defend, and you don't have to run around like a rabbit all day long.

The strategist and his lieutenant generals all agreed with Zhang Bao's decision, and the strategist stared at the small Yangcheng compared to the huge Han territory, and his eyes flashed: "Our army must win this battle, and it must win a big victory." He understood that Zhang Bao wanted to learn from Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang, and wanted to take advantage of Yangcheng's confidence in winning the Yellow Turban generals. This is more important than a small Yang City.

Zhang Bao and the others hurriedly made a siege plan, and immediately set off to Yangcheng after making the plan.

At this time, in the official army camp, many officers and soldiers were demoralized because of the defeat, Zhao Yi and Sun Jian were thinking of a way to boost the morale of the army, and the best way at this time was to win a battle and break through this dead air with the joy of war.

At this time, Zhao Yi and Sun Jian were in Zhu Yi's camp, and Zhu Yi, a general, had greatly reduced his spirit after yesterday's defeat, and he had converged a lot compared to before. At this time, when he saw Zhao Yi and Sun Jian, the corners of his mouth were full of wry smiles: "What is the current situation in the army of Bolai and Wentai?" Although Zhu Yi did not leave the camp tent, Zhu Yi could still feel the atmosphere in the barracks.

Sun Jian truthfully explained the situation and explained that it is necessary to reorganize the morale of the army, otherwise the officers and troops will lose their previous combat effectiveness.

Zhao Yi stared at Zhu Yi, who was full of gloom: "In my opinion, the morale of the officers and soldiers is low, because starting with the generals, the emotions of the generals can affect the soldiers, if the generals are low, the morale of the soldiers must be low." Even the generals have lost confidence, how can the soldiers have the belief that they will win. Zhao Yi advised Zhu Yi to come out of this low mood first and influence the soldiers with himself.

Although he lost 5,000 soldiers, he did not lose most of his soldiers like Dong Zhuo, and it could only be regarded as a small defeat. If he can learn a lesson and regroup, he will be able to break the Yellow Turban Army one day.

Sun Jian agreed with Zhao Yi's words very much, and also persuaded Zhu Yi.

After marching and fighting for so many years, Zhu Yi naturally knows the importance of military spirit. When he stood up, the confidence seemed to return to him: "There are generals like Bolai and Wentai in our army, how can the Yellow Turban Army win." ”

At this time, news came from Tanma: "General, Zhang Jiao's army has captured Quyang the day before yesterday, and many remnants of the Yellow Turban Army have gone to defect. ”

Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang's department had Huangfu Song chasing after him, why did Zhang Jiao break through Quyang? Zhu Yi asked: "What is the situation of General Huangfu's headquarters at this time?" "If Huangfu Song's army is defeated, how can he be the opponent of the three Zhang Jiao brothers with his lone army.

"General Huangfu fought against the Yellow Turban Army the day before yesterday and lost 3,000 soldiers, and now General Huangfu has regrouped and encircled and suppressed Zhang Jiao again." Tanma replied truthfully.

Hearing the news, Zhu Yi's face was slightly happy, after all, he was not the only one who lost the battle.

Zhao Yi muttered two sentences of Quyang's place name, which belongs to the jurisdiction of Changshan County, but he didn't expect Zhang Jiao to be there.

"General Huangfu's defeat in the battle seems to be the result of the pursuit of the enemy as well as ours, and we must take this as a warning and not make the same mistake again." Zhu Yi sighed, Huangfu Song, like Zhu Yi, wanted to quickly cut off the heads of the three Zhang Jiao brothers. Zhang Jiao and others also took advantage of Zhu Yi and Huangfu Song's eagerness to win, causing the defeat of the official army.

Although the loss of manpower in the official army is not much, the impact is very great, and those remnants of the Yellow Turban Army who have already left will be confident because of these two big victories and continue to follow Zhang Jiao and others, which is the most tricky.

Zhao Yi ignored how the Huangfu army was now, and hurriedly asked, "How is the current movement of Zhang Bao's department?" ”

"The scout horse sent out by the villain has not yet returned, I don't know what happened to Zhang Bao's department at this time."

Waving his hand to let the horse go down, Zhu Yi walked back and forth in the camp, muttering in his mouth: "Could it be that the Yellow Turban Army, which is about to be wiped out, can still be resurrected?" ”

Zhang Jiao just captured a county seat, which is just a drop in the ocean compared with the splendid rivers and mountains of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although the Eastern Han Dynasty court is **, but the world has not yet been chaotic to the time when the imperial power is declining, as long as it is an edict from the emperor, it is enough to mobilize tens of thousands of elite soldiers and strong generals.

Zhu Yi asked his soldiers to strengthen their training and find out Zhang Bao's movements before they started. Zhu Yi's confidence was restored, Zhao Yi and Sun Jian also left the camp and returned to their own road, Sun Jian asked Zhao Yi: "How do Bolai view the current situation of our army and the Yellow Turban Army?" In fact, Sun Jian wanted to ask Zhao Yi who had a better chance of winning against the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhao Yi naturally understood what Sun Jian meant: "Don't say that the Yellow Turban Army only occupies one county town at this time, even if the Yellow Turban Army occupies Jizhou, the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be defeated." "Because the Eastern Han Dynasty is a corner of the enemy of the whole country, the Yellow Turban Army will be defeated if it survives.

Moreover, when the 36 Fang army revolted, Zhang Jiao's direction was wrong. Even if someone reports that the opportunity has been lost, it is not impossible to recover. Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, there were not many soldiers in the imperial court, like Fanyang County, where Zhao Yi stayed, but there were only more than 200 soldiers stationed.

The 360,000 army has been twice as large as the imperial court's soldiers and horses, if Zhang Jiao can quickly gather the soldiers of the 36 parties, and take the capital directly instead of attacking other states and counties, the situation will be greatly changed compared with the current situation.

At the beginning of the Yellow Turban Army's uprising, it was a pleasure to kill officials and release grain, but it was a pity that Zhang Jiao and others did not have a sense of the overall situation. Now even if Zhang Jiao does not dominate the world, he is definitely the most powerful one among the powers, and it is the difference of one thought that leads to today's predicament, which makes Zhao Yi sigh.

It may only take you a second to decide something, but you may regret that decision for the rest of your life.

At this time, Zhu Yi, the official army battalion, was packing up the army's morale and preparing for war. Zhang Bao's army has already reached the scope of Yangcheng County.

After learning that the Yellow Turban Army of the three Zhang Jiao brothers had fled to the north, the officials and soldiers of various counties were very nervous, for fear that the Yellow Turban Army would flee to their own jurisdiction, because the Yellow Turban Army would be looted in the villages near which county seat it went.

The Yangcheng county commander naturally didn't want the Yellow Turban Army to come to his own county, so when Tanma told the county commander that Zhang Bao's troops of the Yellow Turban Army were dispatched, and nearly 40,000 thieves swooped down, the county commander's face suddenly turned pale, and the bronze jue in his hand fell to the ground, and the wine in it was spilled all over the ground. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Yangcheng County Order, like other county orders, recruited troops to defend itself in accordance with the will of the imperial court. After this period of recruitment, the original number of soldiers increased from 300 to 1,000. But at this time, let alone a thousand soldiers, even if there are two thousand, it is definitely not the opponent of the 40,000 Yellow Turban Army.

After the panic, the county commander hurriedly called the county magistrate and the county lieutenant to come over to discuss the matter.

Hearing this news, the faces of the two of them were not good-looking, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army pointed directly at themselves, under the crushing of tens of thousands of troops, how could Yangcheng have any hope of defending.

"At this time, the situation is critical, and we must defend the city to the death." The county commander said with a firm gaze, and ordered the county lieutenant to send all the soldiers to the city wall, and even the messengers in the government were transferred by the county order. The county commander didn't want to fight this battle, after all, the disparity in strength was too great. However, if the county is handed over to the Yellow Turban Army and he is attached to the Yellow Turban Army, although he can ensure that his life is not in danger for the time being, the imperial court will not let him go.

"At this time, the army of General Zhu Yi of the imperial court is a hundred miles away from our Yangcheng, you should quickly go and ask General Zhu to send troops to support." The county magistrate hurriedly instructed the county magistrate. As long as he can hold on for a day, the imperial army will arrive, but what makes him unconfident is whether he can hold for a day.

Zhang Bao looked at the sparse troops on the city wall of Yangcheng, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, how could more than a thousand soldiers in this county be able to resist his own army, Zhang Bao was afraid that the county order would encourage the people to defend the city. There are more than 40,000 people in a county town, and if those people go up to the city wall, Zhang Bao will lose a lot of soldiers even if he captures the county seat. In the face of such a weakly defended county, Zhang Bao didn't say any siege strategy, and waved his hand very simply: "Attack!" ”

The 40,000 soldiers shouted and rushed over, and the deafening shouting made the hearts of the soldiers at the city gate beat twice unconsciously. The county commander personally stood at the city gate to direct the battle, and the battle was about to break out.

At this time, the army stationed in Zhu Yi, who was paying close attention to Zhang Bao's department, finally got the news from Tanma: "General, Zhang Bao's department is marching in the direction of Yangcheng. ”

Zhang Jiao muttered twice: "Yangcheng? Then he raised his head: "It's not good, Yangcheng is in danger!" ”
