"Xiaguan Cao Cao has seen Yao Taishou!" In the tent of the conquest of the army marshal, Cao Cao saluted Yao Jie, Cao Cao also has an official position as a speaker, and Yao Jie is the Taishou of Youbeiping, and it is natural for Cao Cao to call himself a subordinate official.

"Meng De doesn't need to be polite, you are in Zhili with 8,000 people to block the army of more than 200,000 Bocai, so that it cannot advance half an inch, and make a great contribution to my Han!" Yao Jie replied with a smile.

"In front of the general of the conquest, how dare you bow, the general of the conquest in the north to destroy Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju, resist the invasion of Wuhuan, the battle of Zhuoxian is to break Cheng Yuanzhi's 200,000 army with only 20,000 people, not long ago the thief Zhang Baoxiao head, repeatedly defeated Zhang Liang, really my Han is the world's famous general!" Saying that, Cao Cao actually showed an expression of admiration, the other party's age is nine years younger than himself, and his background is far inferior to himself, but the merits he has established are far beyond his own, which has to make Cao Cao admire, he Cao Cao is not Yuan Shao, and he will not look down on others just because of his identity, on the contrary, he admires capable people more.

"Meng De is overrated!" Although Yao Jie said this, it could be seen that he still enjoyed accepting the compliments of Emperor Wei Wu in history.

"Okay, Meng De, the top priority now is to eliminate the Yellow Turban Army in Guangzong City!" Seeing what Cao Cao wanted to say, Yao Jie directly interrupted.

"The high walls of Guangzong City are thick, and a large amount of grain and grass are piled up inside, and the number of people is several times that of our army, and our army lacks siege weapons, if you rashly attack the city, you will definitely lose a lot of money and gain nothing, I don't know what Meng De thinks?" Yao Jie then asked, pointing to the map.

His question stumped Cao Cao, Cao Cao also learned about the battle situation before coming, Zhang Liang had the advantage but only defended the city, and there was no other way in this situation than to attack.

"This, General Yao, let's think about it in the long term at this time!" Cao Cao's face was also a little red, and there was really no good way.

"Alas, in this way, my army will besiege Guangzong City first!" Yao Jie has no choice, in history, the official army relied on a sneak attack by taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Yellow Turban Army, but now looking at Zhang Liang's strict defensive attitude, it is basically useless to sneak attack.

In November of the sixth year of Guanghe, two months have passed since the siege of the official army, but the battle situation has not changed much, during which Yao Jie also tried to attack the city several times, but lost more than 3,000 people without the slightest hope, Yao Jie decisively gave up the attack, Zhang Liang also took advantage of this to kill out of the city, but was beaten back by Yao Jie and Cao Cao, losing more than 10,000 people.

"Big brother!" In Guangzong City, Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Jiao, who was already extremely weak, in front of Zhang Jiao's couch, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, how high-spirited the three brothers were when they first started the army, and now one has been killed, and the other is dying.

Suddenly, Zhang Jiao sat up as if he was returning to the light, grabbed Zhang Liang tightly and said, "Avenge the third brother!" With that, he swallowed his last breath and fell.

"Big brother!" Zhang Liang cried bitterly, the three brothers have gone to the second, and now he is the only one alive.

About half an hour later, Zhang Liang adjusted his emotions and said: "Big brother, don't worry, I will avenge the third brother's revenge, I have already used Yao Jie's head to pay tribute to the third brother, don't worry!" ”

The news of Zhang Jiao's death was not hidden, and soon spread throughout the city, in terms of playing this set, Zhang Liang was obviously not mature enough, and did not block the news at the first time, and many people with different intentions in Guangzong City also began to think carefully.

"Hahaha, great, isn't the thief's first horn known as a great sage and mentor? Is it an immortal disciple? But the immortal disciple is dead, what will those Yellow Turban Army believers think? I'm afraid a lot of people are ready to make a move now! Yao Jie, who got the news, laughed.

"This is a peerless opportunity, it won't be long before Guangzong City can be easily taken, so I congratulate the general in advance on his great achievements!" Cao Cao on the side also pinched his beard and smiled.

"Meng De said it too early, before he won Guangzong, everything could be variable!" Yao Jie was not so optimistic, he knew that Guangzong was probably not so good.

Soon, an uninvited guest arrived at the camp of the conquest army.

"Are you Li Yuan's man?" Yao Jie looked at the messenger in front of him, who was six feet five tall and dressed in a black robe. Li Yuan was the guard of Guangzong's East Gate, and when the news of Zhang Jiao's death came, he obviously had a different heart the next day.

"Yes! My general listened to the bewitchment of Zhang Jiao's traitor before, and now he regrets it, and hopes to return to the court, I wonder if the general can give him a chance? The messenger bowed his head and bent over.

"Why does General Ben believe you? Can you just rely on your words to let Ben General take tens of thousands of soldiers to risk? Yao Jie said with a smile.

"This ......" the messenger had nothing to say.

"In this case, let your general write a letter of surrender, press his handprint, and bring it over!" Yao Jie said to the messenger.

"No!"

After the messenger left, Cao Cao asked, "Does the general really want to believe them?" ”

"No, no, no! They weren't the only ones here! Yao Jie said thoughtfully.

Zhang Liang in Guangzong City also knew bad things, on the one hand, it made people "refute the rumors", and on the other hand, people kept an eye on the Yellow Turban generals, but unfortunately it had little effect, unless he could let Zhang Jiao himself come out to prove that he was not dead, otherwise how could the other Yellow Turban soldiers believe him.

Listening to the voices of those outside who wanted to see the great sage and good teacher, Zhang Jiao felt a headache, and finally sent away a group of yellow turban generals who wanted to see the great sage and good teacher, and a personal soldier came to his side.

"General Digong!" Zhang Liang's own soldiers came to his side and saluted.

Then the soldiers whispered something in Zhang Liang's ear.

"Is this true?" Zhang Liang stared at the pro-soldier Dao tightly.

"The villain is willing to guarantee with his life!" The pro-soldier directly clenched his fists and bowed his head.

"Okay, give the order, order Guan Hai to lead the troops to get ready, and closely monitor the situation of the city gates in the past few days!" Zhang Liang said excitedly, it seemed that everything was in hand.

Three days later, in a residential house in Guangzong City, Guan Hai was leading dozens of personal soldiers to stare at the east city gate, and there were 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers waiting not far away.

"General, we've been staring at it for three days, and there's no movement at all, what am I waiting for here?" A Guan Hai soldier asked.

"I'm afraid some people have been bought by the dog officials and want to betray the Digong general!" Guan Hai snorted coldly, since the last defeat, Guan Hai's former arrogance has completely disappeared, but he is very dignified in the face of the conscription army outside the city, and Zhang Liang's previous act of buying people's hearts also made Guan Hai very grateful, so he said that he betrayed the general of the land instead of the great virtuous teacher.

Bedridden for more than a year, Zhang Jiao's influence has dropped to the lowest among the top leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, but Zhang Liang, who replaced him in handling government affairs, has become more prominent in the top ranks, but among the low-level soldiers, Zhang Jiao's influence still exceeds Zhang Liang's.
