In March of the seventh year of Guanghe, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty named Yin Hejin of Henan as a general and a cautious marquis. The soldiers who commanded the left and right Yulin Army and the five battalions of Tun Cavalry, Infantry, Yue Cai, Changshui, and Shooting Sound were stationed in Duting, the main station of the Beijing Division's post carriage, guarding the safety of the Beijing Division.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty also took Huangfu Song as the left middle general, Zhu Wei as the right middle general, and Lu Zhi as the North middle lang general, and collected elite soldiers from all over the country, more than 40,000 people, to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei went to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan County. Halfway through, the two divided their troops, each led an army, and found an opponent to fight.

Zhu Wei met Bocai of the Yingchuan Yellow Turban Army, but Zhu Wei suffered a loss and the army was defeated. Huangfu Song had to lead the lone army, stationed in Changshe, and stubbornly guarded the county seat, waiting to counterattack.

In Nanyang, Zhang Mancheng, the "divine envoy" of the Yellow Turban Army, led the crowd to raise troops in Nanyang when he just received the news that Ma Yuanyi was defeated and arrested in Luoyang. In just ten days, he gathered tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops, attacked the county seat all the way, and included the Taiping Dao believers and bandits who came to meet along the way, which has grown to tens of thousands of people, and attacked the city of Wancheng, the seat of Nanyang County.

On the wall of Wancheng, a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform and jacket stood at the head of the city with a sword. His saber was already stained with blood, and the hand holding it was shaking. He is Chu Gong, the guard of Nanyang County, and at this moment, Chu Gong looked at the yellow turban soldiers under the city wall, and his face was full of vicissitudes.

The defenders of the city were exhausted, and this was the fifth siege of the Yellow Turban Army. The city was littered with corpses, and the stench was thick in the sunlight. To make matters worse, the people of the city asked to flee for their lives several times, but he refused. As soon as the gates were opened, the Yellow Turbans would storm the city.

At present, the city gate is full of people, and Su Qiao'er is among them. When Su Qiao'er left, she returned from Hanoi County all the way back along the route that had followed Han Xuan before. After entering Wancheng, she encountered the Yellow Turban Army attacking the city, and the city gate was closed to prohibit the people from leaving the city, and she had been trapped in Wancheng for several days.

"Chu Taishou, just open the door and let us go out and escape!"

"yes, my child hasn't eaten in days!" ……

Chu Gong looked at the people gathered in the city gate and shouted to leave the city, frowning, if the reinforcements from the imperial court do not come, Nanyang will be lost. Chu Gong shouted at them: "Fathers and fellow villagers, it's not that Gong refuses to open the city gate. Once the gates of the city are opened, the thieves will surely attack the city, and the women, children, and children in the city will be harmed by the thieves. ”

The people will be suspicious, and Chu Gong will say the same thing for the next few days, and the people in the city will panic, and the food will be eaten. For a while, hunger and terror enveloped Wancheng, and more and more people gathered in front of the city gate, and finally the people in the city couldn't help it.

"Don't listen to him, he and those corrupt officials are all the way, just thinking about keeping his official position. The Yellow Turban Army is a poor people like us, killing corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they will never embarrass us when we go out of the city! Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Yes, everyone fought with them!"

"Fight with them, open the city gates!" Someone in the crowd chimed in.

The people in the city mutinied, Chu Gong hurriedly sent soldiers to suppress it, but at this time the Yellow Turban Army came to attack the city again, there were only 2,000 soldiers in the city, and it was already very difficult to defend the city wall. Finally, the soldiers guarding the city gate were killed by the mutants, and the city gate was wide open!

For a while, the Yellow Turban Army outside the city poured into the city gate like a tide, and the people in the city rushed to the city gate in panic. Many people were trampled to death, and the Yellow Turbans kept cutting down the people who blocked the road and rushed to the city wall.

The soldiers defending the city were constantly slashed and killed by the Yellow Turban soldiers who poured onto the city walls, and the blood flowed like a river. Chu Gong fought hard with his sword to kill several Yellow Turbans, but there were too many of them, and a Yellow Turban soldier slammed a hoe down on the back of his head from behind. Chu Gong was stunned, unsteady on his feet, his body staggered, and another Yellow Turban soldier stabbed him in the abdomen, and he fell down holding his bleeding lower abdomen.

Taishou Chu Gong was killed, Wancheng suddenly became a pot of porridge, and Su Qiaoer rode a white horse to "step on the snow" and escaped from the city gate. However, the white horse under the seat was too conspicuous and attracted the attention of the Yellow Turban Army.

"Stop, don't run!" The Yellow Turbans were holding on to the back.

Su Qiaoer rode all the way to the suburbs, starved for a few days, and the horse did not eat forage for several days. The white horse "stepping on the snow" was finally so tired that he fell to the ground, Su Qiaoer was thrown to the ground, and several yellow turban soldiers behind him also chased after him.

"Yo, it's still a little beauty! Come and make the uncles happy. Several Yellow Turban soldiers walked towards Su Qiao'er with a lewd smile.

Su Qiao'er was so frightened that she sat on the ground and retreated again and again, crying: "Don't come, don't come over......" Su Qiao'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, touched a stone behind her, and was about to smash her head when she picked it up.

The next moment, she saw a Yellow Turban soldier open his mouth wide, and an arrow went through the back of his head, and the cluster of arrows pierced into his mouth, and he fell to the ground on the spot. The other three Yellow Turbans were so frightened that they stayed where they were, and three more arrows came at the same time, and three of them fell to the ground at the same time with arrows in their backs.

Su Qiao'er looked at the scene in front of her in surprise and dropped the stone in her hand. looked at the comer: "Uncle Huang, why are you here?" ”

The person who came was Huang Zhong, and I saw Huang Zhong holding his bow and arrows again, shooting at an escaped Yellow Turban soldier, and an arrow pierced his head.

Huang Zhong put away his bow and said: "There are yellow turban thieves in Nanyang, and I took my wife and Xu'er to take refuge in Jingnan, and I happened to pass by here. When I saw that you were being pursued by thieves, I came to your rescue. It's you, why aren't you with Han Gongzi? ”

Su Qiao'er choked up and said, "I'...... I don't want to drag him down any longer. ”

Huang Zhong saw that Su Qiao'er replied weakly, and took out a piece of rice cake (wheat cake) from the package and handed it to her. Su Qiao'er snatched it and devoured it. The wheat crackers were very dry, Su Qiao'er choked so badly that Huang Zhong handed her the bamboo tube with water. Su Qiao'er took a big sip of water, covered her throat and said, "Thank you Uncle Huang for saving your life, the little woman with great kindness and great virtue can't be repaid." ”

Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "It's just a gesture, Miss Su doesn't have to be polite." What are Ms. So's plans for the future? ”

Su Qiaoer said: "I plan to go back to Changsha and return to my parents. ”

Huang Zhong said with a smile: "So we happened to be on the way, and when I went to pick up Mrs. and Xu'er, we will go on the road together." ”

Han Xuan took Dong Ping and Yang Xiong all the way from Yingchuan to Nanyang County, asking around about Su Qiaoer's whereabouts. How could the fleeing people be in the mood to care about this, they all fled with a perfunctory sentence, and Han Xuan had to order the soldiers to grab the fleeing people and come over to ask. Han Xuan learned that Wancheng, the county town of Nanyang, had been captured by Zhang Mancheng, and there were Yellow Turban troops everywhere, and he was very anxious, for fear that Su Qiao'er would have an accident.

Han Xuan captured another family of three on this day, and Han Xuan asked, "You escaped from Wancheng, can you see a woman riding a white horse, about twelve years old, very beautiful." ”

The parents saw the fierce and vicious appearance of Dong Ping and Yang Xiong, who were guarding Han Xuan, and looked at Han Xuan in horror: "Son, don't kill us, we really didn't see it!" ”

The mother held her child and wept bitterly, only to see the child show her head and blink her big innocent eyes and say, "Father, mother." We obviously saw it, wasn't the big sister we met on the road leading a white horse, and he was walking with a middle-aged man. ”

Han Xuan was overjoyed, or a child would not lie, so he touched the little boy's head and asked, "Little brother, what's your name?" How old are you this year? ”

The little boy replied with a smile, "My name is Pang Tong." He was five years old. ”

Han Xuan looked at the little boy with a shocked expression, and couldn't believe that the five-year-old boy in front of him turned out to be a phoenix chick Pang Tong, a sleeping dragon and a phoenix chick, and he could win the world. However, he is still young and has no talent to learn, and if Han Xuan stays with him, it may change the trajectory of his life.
