Chapter Ninety-One: Capricious

Cao Xuan slowly put down the bow and arrow in his hand, in fact, he didn't need to do it himself at this time, everyone in the defenders on the city tower shot the bow and arrow in their hands with great interest, looking at one after another Black Mountain Yellow Turbans, dying under the city tower, not to mention how excited they were in their hearts, anyway, today is the third day, but the defenders on their city tower have not suffered a single casualty, as for the Yellow Turban Army, almost all of them have died more than 10,000.

In the face of this situation, Cao Xing and the others looked extremely leisurely, although the Yellow Turban Army below suffered heavy losses, but what is striking is that most of the Yellow Turban Army in this group retreated, but there were still a small number of people, holding huge shields, cautiously came to the city two hundred steps away.

I saw the head of a Yellow Turban Army drill out of the shield, and the Yellow Turban Army looked at the top of the city tower and shouted: "The defenders on the head of the city listen to me, my family is handsome Zhang Baiqi, asking you to go out of the city to fight, if you dare not come out, then it is Sun Tzu......"

However, when the shouting Yellow Turban Army had not finished his words, a sharp arrow roared out and passed directly through his mouth, the Yellow Turban Army didn't even have time to swallow his last breath, so he lost his life, and the Yellow Turban Army holding shields around him saw this scene, all of them were terrified, and they couldn't care so much anymore, threw down the shield in their hands, and ran away.

And Zhou Cang, who was standing on the top of the city tower, slowly put away the bow and arrow in his hand, and snorted coldly: "Where do you have the right to speak?" ”

And the surrounding soldiers all laughed when they saw this scene, those Yellow Turban Army really had no power to fight back in front of them, in three days, they shot and killed almost 10,000 Yellow Turban Army, equivalent to half of the opponent's living force, this kind of battle report can naturally make many soldiers rejoice, so when watching this wave of Yellow Turban Army retreat again, the defenders on the head of the city broke out into a tsunami-like celebration.

Cao Xing's mood is also good, after all, he won the battle, but it will not be as optimistic as ordinary soldiers, he has more things to consider, although at this moment the Yellow Turban Army has completely withdrawn five hundred steps away, but Cao Xing, looking into the distance, can still vaguely see that in the Yellow Turban Army's military formation, the leader is particularly dazzling, because among the many Yellow Turban Army, most of them are infantry, and there is no horse to ride, but he is riding his horse with a white body, and it seems that there is no miscellaneous hair from a distance.

The person who can ride such a good horse is tantamount to the commander of this Yellow Turban Army, but looking at this white horse, Cao Xuan thought of one more thing in a trance, just now the Yellow Turban Army said that they went to Shuai Zhang Bai to ride and asked Cao Xuan to go out of the city to fight.

That is to say, the person riding the white horse is Zhang Bai riding, Cao Xing also vaguely remembers that there seems to be this practice in the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro, if you want to say what the other party's real name is, I am afraid it is not clear, they are generally referred to by code names, just like the Water Margin in the four famous books.

It is said that because this guy loves to ride a white horse, he is called Zhang Baiqi, like the Yellow Turban of Montenegro There is also a relatively large eye, called Li Damu and so on.

Now this Zhang Baiqi is still far away from Cao Xing, the reason why it will attract Cao Xing's attention is very simple, I saw that Zhang Baiqi at this moment seems to be very crazy, he has been attacking the city for three days in a row, but each time it is only a wave of attack, and the Yellow Turban Army under his command is all broken and hurriedly retreated.

Zhang Baiqi saw that he was furious here, and directly took a thick leather whip and began to whip the people around him continuously.

And the people standing around him were generals and soldiers, no matter who they were, all of them were beaten indiscriminately.

"I said that all of you are doing what to eat, you have paid the price of 10,000 people, but you can't capture a small county town garrisoned by 3,000 people, if the marshal comes here, how do you want me to explain to him? If I can't give him an explanation, I'll be disciplined, and if I do, I'll kill you all!" ”

Seeing Zhang Bai riding there in a rage, the surrounding sergeants were silent and didn't dare to make a sound, but they also complained a lot in their hearts, Cao Xing's soldiers and horses were much stronger than them in terms of military literacy and siege equipment, so how could they fight.

However, this Zhang Baiqi didn't seem to want to care so much, he directly looked at the little generals under him and said viciously: "Since you can't defeat this Bianyun County, then you will guard me here and guard them until they go out of the city to face the battle!" ”

After saying this, Zhang Bai rode his head without looking back, and directly patted his horse and went backwards, leaving only a group of generals to look at each other on the ground, not knowing how to do it.

Cao Xing, who was standing on the top of the city tower, squinted his eyes, taking in all of this, looking at what Zhang Baiqi did, he had to sigh in his heart, this Zhang Baiqi is also capricious enough. He actually left his soldiers here alone, and he went back.

Seeing that there were still four or five thousand Yellow Turban troops left from the outside at this moment, these four or five thousand Yellow Turban troops were given a death order by Zhang Bai, and they did not dare to attack, and they did not dare to retreat, they only dared to hesitate in place, in order to prevent the four or five thousand Yellow Turban Army from suddenly attacking, so Cao Xuan asked Zhou Cang to continue to lead a thousand men and horses to garrison the Nancheng Tower, and the rest of the people could go back to rest and recuperate.

Today's battle, although Cao Xing's people will lose a soldier, but everyone must show twelve points of spirit every time they fight, and all their strength to keep shooting, everyone feels a little backache, so as soon as they get time to rest, they hurry back and get ready to take a good rest.

However, Cao Xuan was not so idle, as soon as he returned to the county office, Duan Ke told him that he had received two new pieces of information here, one good news and one bad news.

The good news is that on the Shangdang side, an army has been dispatched, General Gao Shun is leading a full 40,000 horses, and is rushing to this side, this information was sent a few days ago, so now Gao Shun and others should be on the way, Duan Ke calculated the distance, Gao Shun and the others should need a week to get here.

The combat effectiveness of Gao Shun's army, Cao Xing has seen it before, the infantry led by Gao Shun is really the best in the world, if he personally leads the team into the battlefield, I believe that those Yellow Turban Army will collapse without a fight, this is indeed a good thing, but the other bad news is not so optimistic.

It is said that on the side of the Yellow Turban Army, their commander-in-chief Zhang Yan wanted to come over to supervise the battle in person, and now he is leading 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack here, and the reason why Gao Shun will personally bring the troops here is also because they received this information, knowing that when Zhang Yan's soldiers and horses come, Cao Xing's Bianyun County will not be able to stop them at all, so they will personally send troops.

"Lord Cao, these days you have taken the defenders on the city tower and heroically killed more than 10,000 people of the Yellow Turban Army, these exploits have been recorded, and it will be a great military achievement to form a report, but now that General Gao Shun is coming, it will take at least a week, I don't know if you can stop it in this week!"

Duan Ke looked at Cao Xing expectantly, sometimes Duan Ke was glad, fortunately there was Cao Xing in Bianyun County, fortunately, the person he supported at the beginning was Cao Xing, if there was no Cao Xing, I am afraid that he would not know how many times he had run away from this county order now.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Cao Xuan shook his head, and Duan Ke was startled, thinking that Cao Xuan was joking with him, but Cao Xuan responded seriously.

"Duan County Order, I won't tell you, our Bianyun County is just an ordinary small county town, although I have given enough funds and ordered those blacksmiths under my command to work overtime to make iron arrows, but the daily use is far more than what is manufactured, and now there are only more than 10,000 arrows left, if my luck is not good, I really let Zhang Yan lead the Yellow Turban Yu to the remote county town first, I am afraid that I will only have to fight hard, and when the time comes, I can only hold on to it, everything can only depend on the will of God!"

After listening to Cao Xing's words, Duan Ke suddenly felt a little confused, and after a while, he came to his senses and asked Cao Xing: "Then, what should I do!" ”

However, Cao Xuan waved his hand to signal Duan Ke not to worry, and at night he summoned Chen Hu, Zhou Cang, Fengyun and others.

Seeing that everyone was basically here, Cao He and Duan Ke glanced at each other, both of them nodded in tacit understanding, and then Cao Xuan said to everyone: "Everyone, put your soldiers and horses in order tonight, and prepare to go out of the city tomorrow morning to face the battle!" ”

"What?" As soon as Feng Yun heard this, he stood up with an incredulous face: "Big, big brother, I heard you right, now that this battle is being fought well, why should we go out to meet these Yellow Turban Army, you must know that there are many outlaws among them!" ”

However, for Feng Yun's question, Cao Xuan just waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, Feng Yun is only a civilian official in the end, he doesn't know how to fight militarily, just stay in the city tomorrow.

And Cao Xuan looked at Chen Hu and Zhou Cang with burning eyes, and Chen Hu and Zhou Cang immediately stood up in understanding.

"Big brother, if there is anything, just say it, I, Chen Hu, will go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not give up!"

"Yes, lord, I'm also itching my hands these days, if you have any orders, just give it, I'm willing to take the lead in charging ahead!"

Seeing that the two of them were so confident, Cao Xuan nodded with satisfaction, and then stood up.

"Huzi, Zhou Cang, you two have a good rest, tomorrow may be a huge test for you!"

When the next morning came, the sky was dark, the southernmost gate of Bianyun County suddenly opened, and rows of soldiers wearing helmets and armor quickly rushed out from inside, and the Yellow Turban Army, who was sleeping on the ground outside, were startled when they saw this scene.
