Chapter 53: The First Battle of the Yellow Turban

"Hurry up, please! I don't know if you have words? Yao Jie personally helped Dian Wei up and asked.

"I've lived alone since I was a child, and no one has ever given me a word, why don't you call me one?" Dian Wei Dao.

Yao Jie nodded and said: "I have heard that the evil of the ancient times is extremely brave, so I will call you evil in the future, I hope you can be as brave as evil!" ”

"Okay, I'll call evil in the future, hahaha!" Dian Wei did not object.

"Evil, you will follow me in the future and be the commander of my personal guard!" Yao Jie said to Dian Wei, the reason why Yao Jie made this decision is mainly because Dian Wei is Cao Cao's bodyguard in history, if it weren't for his wife Cao Cao's greed for beauty, plus Dian Wei's double halberd was stolen, Dian Wei would not die in the end, and Dian Wei is obviously a qualified bodyguard, although he is excellent in martial arts, but the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to prevent.

"I am willing to die for the Lord!" The position of the commander of the personal guard is not something that anyone can do, but he, a new investor, is so trusted by Yao Jie, Dian Wei is naturally very moved in his heart.

"This big worm is dead, and now it's almost noon, the army will buy a pot and cook on the spot, and we will eat this big worm too." Yao Jie said. During the Qin and Han dynasties, people only ate two meals a day, and in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the concept of "lunch food" was gradually formed, and eating three meals a day became the basic dining custom of ordinary people, but Yao Jie's army had three meals, mainly for the sake of the nutrition of the soldiers.

……

After the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao ordered Cheng Yuanzhi to command 100,000 troops and come to Zhuojun. The reason why the Yellow Turban Army made a big move against Zhuo County was because there was a large official warehouse in Zhuo County, which stockpiled a large amount of armor and food. The Yellow Turban Army came for this official warehouse.

In the face of the menacing Yellow Turban Army, Liu Yu, the Taishou of Youzhou, hurriedly went out to recruit troops. He hoped to organize an army to stop the Yellow Turbans' attack.

The 20,000 troops hastily organized by Liu Yu encountered Cheng Yuanzhi's Yellow Turban Army at the foot of Daxing Mountain, which was different from the situation in the later Romance. Cheng Yuanzhi did not fight alone with the official army, but relied on the strength of the whole army to attack as soon as he came up.

The 20,000 officers and soldiers were not higher than the Yellow Turban Army because they were hastily promoted to the army. As a result, he was defeated in a melee with the Yellow Turban Army, which was several times his size. Although there were a few brave warriors in the official army, their role in the melee of thousands of troops was really limited and they failed to turn the tide of the war.

The official army was defeated, and only a few thousand remnants retreated to Zhuo County, preparing to defend the city.

The Yellow Turban Army went to the city of Zhuoxian and surrounded the county on all sides.

The people of Zhuojun were shocked to hear that the official army was defeated, so more than 100,000 people fled west with their families and mouths. The official road from Zhuo County to Yi County was crowded with fleeing people, and the scene was chaotic. From time to time, people fall to the ground and are trampled to death by the crowd that follows them. There were children's cries everywhere, and the whole scene was bleak.

"Dad, how could the official army be defeated by the Yellow Turban Thief Army?" , A teenager asked the middle-aged man next to him, his expression full of doubts and incomprehension.

The middle-aged man shook his head, "Maybe there are too many thieves and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers are outnumbered!" ”

The young man was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Dad, where are we going?" ”

The middle-aged man sighed, "Hey! Dad doesn't know, just follow everyone, there will always be a place for yellow turban thieves! ”

Just as the father and son were talking, suddenly there was a scream behind them. "Oh no! The thieves have caught up! Run, everybody! Accompanied by screams, the sound of horses' hooves sounded sharply, from far and near.

The people who were fleeing suddenly became in chaos, and everyone began to flee in all directions. Many of them went into the grove by the side of the road, and among them was the father and son.

The hundreds of forward cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army arrived in the blink of an eye. The people, who had no time to escape, were now suffering. I saw the Yellow Turban Army howling and waving a big knife through the people who were fleeing in panic, and in an instant, the screams were stacked, and with the flash of the knife, one after another the unarmed people were cut down in a pool of blood.

Seeing this scene, the young man hiding in the woods trembled, and his eyes were full of fear. The middle-aged man held the boy tightly in his arms, and his eyes were also full of fear.

Just as the Yellow Turban cavalry was raging, the people hiding in the woods suddenly heard a faint sound like thunder, and then the earth seemed to tremble slightly.

The people looked confused, and they all followed the prestige. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, I was shocked when I saw it.

Countless soldiers in armor trotted in the north, and the formation was not chaotic at all.

The Yellow Turban Cavalry was a little red-eyed, and hurriedly killed them without looking at the number of the other party.

"Shoot!" A general wields a sword.

The overwhelming rain of arrows fell, and only more than 200 of the Yellow Turban cavalry fled in a hurry.

The people hiding in the woods were dumbfounded, and finally shouted excitedly: "Don't be afraid, everyone, look at the flag, this is the Great Han King!" It's the official army! We are saved! ”

When the others heard this, they hurriedly looked at the banner of the army, and sure enough, there was a big black "Han" embroidered on the battle flag with a red background.

It's really an official army!! The people hiding in the woods were so excited that almost all of them could not help but shed tears. For these people who escaped the catastrophe, the experience just now was like going through the process of death to life, so everyone seemed to be too excited to help themselves.

I don't know who rushed out of the woods first, and then the people poured out of the woods, standing on both sides of the pipe, waving their hands, tears in their eyes, and cheering with emotion.

"Yun Chang, you go and see if there are any alive, bring them up!" A handsome young man dressed all over his body said to a strong man with a flushed face beside him.

Yao Jie went south from Guangyang, just passing by Zhuo County, and learned that Cheng Yuanzhi's soldiers were besieging Zhuo County, obviously bumping into his own gun, so naturally he would not let go of this good opportunity, and immediately ordered the whole army to trot forward, didn't this meet the Yellow Turban Cavalry?

Soon, Guan Yu dragged a captive to Yao Jie's war horse, and then fell to the ground, and Zhang Fei on the side immediately shouted: "My eldest brother has something to ask you, you must answer well, otherwise I will tear you alive!" ”

"Yes, yes, the villain must know everything." , The captive hurriedly kowtowed to Yao Jie.

Yao Jie looked at the captive in front of him. This yellow turban captive is indeed as depicted in later film and television dramas, with a yellow scarf on his head, yellow clothes and yellow armor on his body, in a word, his whole body is yellow. But now his armor is torn, there is still an arrow stuck in his thigh, he is covered in blood, he is trembling all over, and the whole person is extremely embarrassed.
