When Zhang Mancheng led the crowd back to Wancheng, he found that the banner of the Han army was planted on the tower. His subordinates were suddenly in turmoil, and seeing the Han cavalry coming from behind, Zhang Mancheng had no choice but to abandon Wancheng and leave.

The Yellow Turban soldier who was captured by Zhao Ci on the city tower recognized Zhang Mancheng and shouted at him for help. As soon as Zhao Ci heard that it was Zhang Mancheng, he immediately decided to go out of the city to pursue. Zhao Ci only left 300 people to defend Wancheng, and he took 500 people to pursue.

Zhao Ci took the lead and caught up with the remnants of the army led by Zhang Mancheng, waving the halberd in his hand rapidly, and beheading several Yellow Turban generals. Several more Yellow Turban generals led hundreds of pro-soldiers to drag Zhao Ci after the break, and Zhang Mancheng took the opportunity to escape.

Zhang Mancheng was also lucky to get home, and on the way he met Qin Jie and Huang Zhong who came with their troops. Zhang Mancheng saw that there was no way out, and he decided to fight to the death and maybe he could kill Qin Jie.

Zhang Mancheng danced his sword and slapped his horse and led the remnants of the Yellow Turban to rush towards Qin Jie's banner, and Qin Jie saw this and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to fight. Zhang Mancheng rushed straight towards Qin Jie, seeing that he was about to rush to Qin Jie's approach, he raised the ring head knife in his hand and prepared to slash at Qin Jie.

However, the next moment, a big man leaped out of his horse and slashed his sword. Zhang Mancheng looked at the knife that came out of his hand and the palm that was numb from the shock, and he was stunned by the strength of the big man and froze in place. The big man was Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong didn't give him time to react, the knife raised in his hand slashed back, and he cut off Zhang Mancheng's head with one sword.

Seeing this, the remnants of Zhang Mancheng's troops all scattered and fled, shouting: "The divine envoy is dead in battle!" ”

Qin Jie still wanted to pursue, but Huang Zhong stopped him and said, "Poor Kou Mo chase!" ”

Han Xuan echoed: "Yes, Qin Taishou. Now that Zhang Mancheng is dead, he can recruit these Yellow Turban troops on the spot. If they are all wiped out, they will be cornered and will inevitably fight back! ”

Qin Jie said disdainfully: "What are the rabble afraid of? Now that the head of the thief is dead, I should take advantage of the victory to pursue him, and don't stop me from beheading and making meritorious service! ”

Qin Jie did not listen to their persuasion and led his troops to chase after them, and most of these Zhang Mancheng's personal soldiers were composed of bandits, bandits, outcasts and other outlaws. Now that Qin Jie is forced to come here,

Someone in this group of Yellow Turban soldiers shouted: "The officers and soldiers want to kill us all, it is better to fight with them than to die!" ”

So they picked up their swords and turned their heads to rush towards the Han army led by Qin Jie, this group of Han troops chased and killed all the way to slaughter the Yellow Turban soldiers, and they were caught off guard when they encountered the group of Yellow Turban soldiers in front of them, and they were hacked to death and injured many people.

At this time, Zhao Ci led more than 200 people to chase Zhang Mancheng here, he was bent on catching up with Zhang Mancheng, and many people couldn't keep up with him and left the team. Zhao Ci saw that Qin Jie was commanding the Han army to fight hard to block the counterattack of this group of Yellow Turban Army, and hurriedly brought people over to support.

Every time the halberd in Zhao Ci's hand danced, it took the life of a yellow turban soldier. He killed Qin Jie, and Qin Jie was shocked: "Why are you here? ”

Zhao Ci replied: "I led my troops to capture Wancheng, and there were only some old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city. I left more than 300 people to defend the city, and took the rest of the people to pursue Zhang Mancheng. Where is Zhang Mancheng? ”

Qin Jie was secretly shocked when he saw that he was brave. said to him: "Zhang Mancheng has been beheaded by me, these remnants of the Yellow Turban have been scattered, you can follow me to behead and make military achievements!" ”

Zhao Ci nodded silently, holding a halberd to guard Qin Jie's left and right, chasing down the Yellow Turban Army who fled in all directions with him.

The news of Zhang Mancheng's death gradually spread among the Yellow Turban Army, and the remnants led by Zhang Mancheng's subordinate Zhao Hong were separated from Zhang Mancheng at that time. Now that he learned that Zhang Mancheng was dead, he raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, God has unfortunately died in battle, and we must avenge him!" ”

A group of Yellow Turban soldiers below were furious and shouted: "Revenge! Avenge! Kill the dog! ”

A young yellow turban general stood up and suggested: "How about I recommend Zhao Hong as the new Daqu Shuai, and let Daqu Shuai lead us to counterattack back." I, Han Zhong, were the first to agree, did everyone agree? ”

Everyone agreed, so Zhao Hong took over from Zhang Man as the new commander of Nanyang Dafang, and the rest of the scattered yellow turbans were included in the team along the way, and the number of people increased.

A Yellow Turban soldier who escaped from Runan and Yingchuan said: "I heard that the Han army did not allow us to surrender, saying that we would easily become thieves when it was advantageous, and beg to surrender when it was unfavorable. It will allow more people to join us, and we will hunt down and kill the remnants of our army as punishment! ”

When everyone heard this, they asked to fight to the death with the official army, and Zhao Hong gathered more than 100,000 people all the way, and his subordinate Han Zhong even suggested that Zhao Hong attack Wancheng as a base.

So more than 100,000 people of the Yellow Turban Army slaughtered back to Wancheng, and Wancheng only had 300 officers and soldiers left by Zhao Ci, how could they resist. So Wancheng fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban Army again.

Qin Jie and Xu Xuan chased the rest of the Yellow Turbans around, and they found that they encountered fewer and fewer Yellow Turban troops.

Later, the scouts came with the news that Wancheng was captured by the Yellow Turbans again, and the Yellow Turban Army elected Zhao Hong as the commander of the Qu to occupy Wancheng. Han Xuan sighed in his heart: "If you don't listen to me, you deserve it." ”

saw Qin Jie furious at Zhao Ci: "Why don't you leave more people to guard Wancheng?" Only three hundred people remained......"

Han Xuan's belly sneered, you didn't give him many people, besides, there are so many Yellow Turban soldiers, how can you not keep it.

Zhao Ci lowered his head and didn't speak, and everyone didn't see a trace of killing intent flashing in Zhao Ci's cold eyes.

Qin Jie and Xu Xuan led more than 10,000 Han troops to camp outside Wancheng and confronted Zhao Hong for a month. In the rest of the places, Huangfu Song and Zhu Junjun took advantage of the victory to continue to attack the Yellow Turbans of Runan and Chen State, pursued Bocai to Yangzhai, and finally defeated Peng Tuo, the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu in Xihua. The remnants of the Yellow Turban Army wanted to flee to Wancheng, but Sun Jian, who was under Zhu Jun, entered the city first, and everyone advanced like ants, breaking the enemy army and successfully pacifying the Yellow Turban Army in the area of Yuzhou.

Lu Zhi and Zhang Jiao fought and killed more than 10,000 Yellow Turbans. Zhang Jiao could only retreat to Guangzong, and Lu Zhi built blocks, dug trenches, and made ladders, and he was about to capture the city. However, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sent eunuch Zuo Feng to inspect the military situation, and someone persuaded Lu Zhi to bribe Zuo Feng, but Lu Zhi refused, so Zuo Feng falsely accused Emperor Ling of Lu Zhi's ineffective operation. Emperor Ling was furious and escorted Lu Zhi back to Beijing in a prisoner car. Jingshi had to issue an edict and then readjust: Dong Zhuo replaced Lu Zhi; Huangfu Song went north to East County; Zhu Jun attacked Zhao Hong in Nanyang.

At this time, it was the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and Zhu Jun led the army to finally come to Wancheng to meet Qin Jie and Xu Xuan. The three armies combined into one place, totaling more than 18,000 people, surrounded Wancheng on all sides.

In the camp of the Chinese army, Zhu Jun was discussing with Qin Jie and others how to attack Wancheng. I saw a tiger general stand up and bow his hand to Zhu Jun and said: "The last general, Sun Jian, is willing to ask Ying to be the vanguard and attack Wancheng!" ”

Han Xuan was accompanied by Qin Jie, and he was fortunate to see Sun Jian's face. I saw that he had a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad facial features, sharp edges and corners on his face, and his tendons and flesh were extremely strong. The end is heroic and extraordinary, worthy of the later Jiangdong Tiger, Han Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

Zhu Jun said with a smile: "I know that Wentai is heroic, but at the moment, I am not in a hurry to attack the city. Although the number of Yellow Turban thieves is large, Wancheng is not large, how can it accommodate more than 100,000 people? In a few days, when the food in the city is exhausted, the thieves will be in chaos! When we attack the city again, we can destroy the thieves in one fell swoop. ”
