Chapter 56: Bocai abandons the city

Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhao Yun came out and said: "General, as the so-called army is plotting, our army is besieging the city, the city must be panicked, after the defeat of the Changshe, Bocai's prestige among the rebels has plummeted, our army is besieging the city, why not surround the three missing one, in this way, let the rebels in the city see the hope of survival, they will inevitably abandon the city, and our army will pursue the situation, and they will be able to break the rebels." ”

After Cao Cao heard Zhao Yun's remarks, he was slightly depressed, these words were exactly what he wanted to say, which also made him puzzled, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were all battlefield generals, it is said that this truth should be understood, why choose to be surrounded by layers.

Huangfu Song said: "Zilong's words, although they are reasonable, but there is an order in the saint, but all the yellow turbans who participate in the rebellion will be executed, and they will not be tolerated, and they will not be tolerated, and they will not be let go if they provoke the dignity of the Han family." ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he returned to his position, and sighed in his heart, the yellow scarves were more forced by life, which he didn't understand, these are mostly armies composed of poor people, and when the imperial court did not react at first, they may be able to sweep the prefectures and counties, once the elite of the Han army is dispatched, they will face defeat.

This kind of killing, in exchange for the resistance of the Yellow Turbans, even if the army is defeated, they can gather in the mountains and forests, bring disaster to the township, and shake the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

It is reasonable that the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans caused turmoil in the Han Dynasty and greatly affected the authority of the Han family, and if such rebellions could not be quelled as soon as possible, the consequences would be serious.

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song naturally wanted to break the Yellow Turban, but there was such an order above, and the two of them could not disobey it.

The generals in the army have no better countermeasures, no one dares to propose to persuade the Yellow Turban at this time, the Yellow Turban is a traitor, and you can't be soft when dealing with the traitor, this is also the attitude of the imperial court in this matter, if someone speaks for the Yellow Turban, it will inevitably bring disaster.

Attacking the Yellow Turban City, the battle situation is naturally tragic.

Three days later, after the baggage was transported to the army, Huangfu Song immediately ordered the army to attack Yangzhai.

Breaking through Yangzhai, the situation in Yingchuan can be completely stabilized, and even if Bocai has certain skills, he can only stay away.

The height of the well is even higher than that of Zhiyang Zhai City, and the archers on the well are able to provide more help to Pao Ze in the process of attacking the city.

This is the first siege battle that Zhao Yun has seen since he came to Dahan.

With the rumbling war drums, the Han soldiers launched a ferocious attack on the city wall, the first to attack was the cloud ladder soldiers in the army, erecting the cloud ladder, which can affect the safety of the city wall to a greater extent, and the army sergeants and soldiers continued to climb the city wall through the cloud ladder, so as to achieve the purpose of occupying the city.

The Han army besieged the city on all sides, although it made the Yellow Turbans float, but Bocai made good use of this, the Han army had no intention of letting them go, if the Han army broke through the city, they would all face the end of death.

In this way, the Han army's offensive method can stimulate the Yellow Turban soldiers to a large extent, and no one wants to die in such an engagement, and they have a chance to survive against the attack of the Han army.

Bo Cai also understood that it was difficult to block the attack of the Han army just by relying on the defense of the Yellow Turban soldiers, but he had no more choice, and it was impossible to bear the cost of losing the war.

Inflicting as much damage as possible on the Han army was Bo Cai's goal, and after killing more Han soldiers, he would be able to lead the army to calmly break through the siege of the Han army.

Among the cloud ladder soldiers, the most prone to casualties, they are the defenders' key attack, fortunately, among the yellow turbans, there is a lack of sophisticated bows and arrows, and the yellow turban soldiers have not undergone too strict training, and there is a certain gap in the quasi-head.

Arrows flew, and a famous Han sergeant fell outside the city.

After Zhao Yun saw this scene, his heart tightened, and he was immediately relieved, this is war, since he chose to storm the city, he must have the consciousness of paying the price.

A series of ladders were erected on the city wall, and the Han soldiers, who had already been prepared, launched a fierce attack on the city, and at the same time, the well was slowly coming towards the city wall, and when it was about ninety steps away from the city, the archers began to climb the well wall, and then continued to harvest the lives of the defenders.

Arrows from both sides came and went, many ladders were pushed to the ground for the defenders, and huge rocks and trees poured down towards the city.

Attacking the city is a great test for the officers and soldiers of the army, and when they attack the city, they are most likely to suffer casualties, and if they are not careful, they will die.

If it was in a frontal attack, with the high morale of the Han soldiers at this time, it would naturally be impossible to defeat the Yellow Turban Army.

The boulders of the sassa constantly affected the soldiers of the Han army who attacked the city.

And Chang Shan Yicong, who was in the Han army, also participated in the attack on the city.

When attacking the city, the officers and men of the army cannot retreat in the slightest, and they march with drums and withdraw their troops, which is a military order.

The three-day general attack, instead of breaking through Yangzhai, made more than 3,000 Han soldiers die outside the city, and several times, the Han army climbed the city wall to stubbornly repel the defenders.

In the afternoon of the fourth day, the offensive of the Han army became more and more fierce, and Bo saw this, leading more than 3,000 elite yellow turbans to break through the encirclement of the Han army and want to leave Yangzhai.

The cavalry of the Han army was immediately dispatched, and the one who broke through the city at this time must be an important figure in the Yellow Turbans, if the Yellow Turban leader Bocai could be killed in this confrontation, the pacification of Yingchuan would be easier.

However, the combat effectiveness shown by the Yellow Turban soldiers at such times was also tenacious, and after leaving more than 1,000 Yellow Turbans to block the Han cavalry, Bo Cai led the Yellow Turbans to escape from Yangzhai.

After the boss left, Yang Zhai's yellow scarves were in chaos, and many yellow scarves wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave from the city gate, but instead for the Han army to attack the city, and for a time the city shouted and killed The sky was shaken.

After the Han soldiers invaded the city, they carried out a merciless slaughter, but all those who came across the yellow scarves on their heads or wandered through the streets were killed.

The order in the army has been very clear, after the city is breached, all those who belong to the Yellow Turban will not be tolerated.

If you choose to betray the Han, you will have to bear the corresponding price, and the dignity of the Han cannot be provoked.

After some Yellow Turban soldiers surrendered, they were greeted by the ruthless killing of Han soldiers, and their resistance was so fragile in front of the Han army, and Yangzhai City became a purgatory on earth.

Zhao Yun's heart flashed a trace of unbearability, but he also understood that such a situation was not something he could stop, and the imperial court needed a rebellious head to establish the prestige of the royal family.
