Volume 2 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 10 Zhao Yun Returns to His Heart

The garrison is repaired, and it is half a moon in a flash, and it is May of the first year of Zhongping. It's not that Xiang Ao is unwilling to attack Quyang, but the difference in strength is too great, and it is extremely unwise to attack. There are about 80,000 Yellow Turban troops in Xiaquyang, plus the Yellow Turban family and the people who are coerced in the city, a total of about 178 people.

And Xiang Ao didn't have many soldiers and horses, and the previous battles of Wuji and Xiyang Pavilion consumed a lot, and there were less than 20,000 people. Although it is much more elite than the Yellow Turban, the disparity of four or five times is that it is a siege, and people with a little common sense know that they cannot attack it.

And Zhang Bao is like a turtle, no matter how Xiang Ao seduces him or how he designs it, Zhang Bao seems to have heard of it and completely ignores it. Xiang Ao didn't dare to send troops to leave, if there were too few soldiers and horses, Zhang Bao would take advantage of the situation to kill, but it would be difficult.

As for the other yellow turbans in the Dahan states, the momentum is indeed the same. The Yingchuan Yellow Turban Army led by Qu Shuai Bocai and the imperial court army led by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun fought in a chaotic manner, and Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were defeated and forced into the Changshe. Bocai even led a large army to surround Changshe, intending to trap the officials and soldiers in the city to death. Bocai also led nearly 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers and horses in Yingchuan, while Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, who were besieged in the city, only had more than 30,000.

Seeing that the army was trapped, the imperial court urgently ordered Cao Cao to lead the army to aid Changshe. Cao Cao received the order and led the army to the aid of Changshe at full speed. And at this time, the city of Changshe.

"Brother Yizhen, we have been besieged by the Yellow Turban for several days, but there is no chance to break the enemy. Hey..."

"Brother Gongwei is still worried about asking for guilt?" Huangfu Song smiled lightly and bitterly: "If we are not effective in combat, the Beijing division is in danger, and the Han is in danger!" "Zhu Jun is indeed a military talent, but since the two got acquainted with each other when they were young, Huangfu Song has always been dissatisfied with Zhu Jun's focus on fame and fortune, and now he is still thinking about his career.

"Brother Yizhen is laughing!" Zhu Jun didn't care: "A group of refugees rebelled, only a crowd, and it only took a little chance to break it." Although Zhu Jun didn't say it too well, Huangfu Song also thought the same way, most of the Yellow Turban Army were ordinary people, and there were no strong families, and there were very few talented and learned people, and they couldn't make a big deal.

At this time, Bo Cai, who was besieging Changshe, was even more anxious than the two. Although Bocai was born in poverty, he committed murder in the county, but he also made friends with heroes and traveled all over Jingzhou. Although he was unable to acquire real pedantic talent due to his identity, he also had a little literary talent in his chest.

As for the strengths and weaknesses of the Yellow Turban Army, Bo Cai knew it clearly. If you can't take advantage of the thunderous momentum that is beginning to sweep the world, it will be difficult to develop again in the future. Therefore, Bocai wanted to break Huangfu Song as soon as possible, and joined Dongjun Bu to go north to Luoyang.

Of course, Zhu Jun and the others have no way of knowing Bocai's thoughts, but they are observing the loopholes in Bocai's formation outside the city every day, hoping to use the plan to break Bocai. In order to be able to observe the movement in the city at all times, Bocai moved the west side of the hillside of the military tent, and the east side of the hillside was full of grass and trees, and many soldiers even camped with wheat straw. And the careful Huangfu Song found out that Bo Cai made a stupid decision, so he immediately worked with Zhu Jun and waited for the east wind to come.

A few days later, Huangfu Song, who knew a little about astronomy, watched the sky at night, and found that the opportunity to break the enemy had arrived, so he arranged for the sergeants to sneak out of the city, blend into the east side of the hillside, hide in the grass and trees, and wait until the wind blows in the middle of the night, and then use torches as a signal to light the grass and trees.

The east wind rose, the torches were raised, the emperor ordered the vanguard soldiers to protrude to the city, and rushed to kill indiscriminately in the Yellow Turban barracks, and fled when they saw that the grass and trees were in the camp tent fireproof, and the soldiers on the city wall all raised their torches, and the sergeants in the mountains and forests in the east saw this, and also set fire to the mountains and forests. As soon as the fire was completed, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun led more than 30,000 soldiers to attack. The panicked Bocai hurriedly ordered the army to retreat, but before he retreated too far, he killed the Han army from the side.

"Kill!" Cao Cao took the lead, leading a mixed army of more than 10,000 cavalry and infantry to attack and kill the chaotic Yellow Turbans. Seeing this, Zhu Jun, who was in the middle of the Chinese army, rushed out of the Chinese army on horseback, and led thousands of cavalry to attack the Bocai Yellow Turban with Cao Cao.

The Yellow Turban Army fled, and the dead were broken in an instant. It's just that Bo got away with it.

"I've seen two lieutenant generals!"

"Fortunately, with Meng De's help, the two of us have been trapped in the city for a long time, and I am deeply worried about the mistake of His Majesty's military plane!" When Zhu Jun saw Cao Cao, he was extremely grateful to Cao Cao for coming to his aid. Although Huangfu Song's plan has been completed, Zhu Jun is still worried that he will not be able to break the yellow scarf, and Cao Cao's arrival at this time undoubtedly makes Zhu Jun feel more secure.

", it's just the right time!" When Cao Cao arrived, he saw that Huangfu Song and the two broke the yellow scarf, and Cao Cao's arrival was just icing on the cake. Besides, Cao Cao didn't come to snatch merit.

"What Brother Gongwei said is extremely true, if Meng De hadn't arrived in time, even if the two of us broke the yellow scarf, we wouldn't have been strangled with such a thunderous momentum!"

"Two Ming Dukes, why don't we join forces with the three of us, pursue Bocai, and go straight to Nanyang?"

The two of them had this idea, but when they saw Cao Cao's proposal, they gladly accepted it. The three of them joined forces to pursue Bocai and sent troops to Nanyang.

The situation in Yingchuan and Nanyang gradually became clear, but Jizhou Lu Zhi and Zhang Liang were in a stalemate for more than half a month. Even after Xiang Ao occupied Xiyang Pavilion, Lu Zhi was still blocked by the yellow scarf led by Zhang Liang and Zhang Jiao, and it was difficult to enter between Julu and Guangping.

Compared with the three major lieutenant generals directly appointed by the imperial court, the pressure on the officials responsible for suppressing the rebellion in various places was much less, and Xiang Ao was only ordered to assist Lu Zhi. At this time, Lu Zhi had never specified what Xiang Ao was like, and Xiang Ao was also extremely relaxed, anyway, he just pressed Zhang Bao and didn't let him move.

Such a stalemate passed for another half a month, and in June of the first year of Zhongping, Lu Zhi forcibly subdued Julu and other counties under the strong attack of Yue Yu, and forced Zhang Liang to Guangzong County, where Zhang Jiao was located. At this point, the situation of the great chaos in the world at the beginning of the year has finally been alleviated. At this time, the rebels who were threatened by the sect had to be Zhang Bao in Xiaquyang, Jizhou, Zhang Liang in Guangzong, Bu Ji in Dongjun, the remnants of Yang Zhai Bocai, the Peng Tuo in Runan, and the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang.

At this time, Xiang Ao and the others were leisurely studying the map in Xiyang Pavilion.

"If it weren't for Tang Zhou's high secret, this Yellow Turban Rebellion would really be able to subvert the Han Dynasty!" The more Xiang Ao studied, the more embarrassed he became, after more than ten years of layout, Zhang Jiao was indeed extraordinary. Although he had to avoid it, Xiang Ao still had to admire his mind.

"Just as the lord said!" Xi Zhong was also shocked to watch from the sidelines. Xiang Ao had nothing to do, and studied the layout of the yellow scarf carefully. If Ma Yuanyi succeeds, the inner palace and the eunuchs coup d'Γ©tat, the outer palace bribes the generals who defend the city, seizes military power, and when the Han court has no time to arrange, it captures Luoyang with the thunderous momentum of Jizhou, Nanyang, Yingchuan, and Dongjun, and then slaughters all the people of the royal family, and the Han Dynasty will be cut off, and then the world will be in chaos.

Xi Zhong admired Xiang Ao for seeing it so thoroughly, if the yellow scarf was led by the lord, I am afraid... Xi Zhong suddenly woke up, shook his head in a panic, and secretly blamed in his heart: What am I thinking? Although he tried his best to dispel his cranky thoughts, Xi Zhong's eyes slowly changed as he looked at Xiang Ao.

"Lord, Zhao Yun outside the tent asks to see you!"

"Oh?! Hurry up! Xiang Ao was curious, Zhao Yun had recovered for a few days, and he didn't know what was going on at this time.

"Yun, I've seen the general!"

"Zilong doesn't have to be polite!" Xiang Ao stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Yun's left hand, and led Zhao Yun to sit down with Xi Zhong.

"I don't know why Zilong came here today?"

"General!" Zhao Yun was a little nervous and said: "That day I fought with the Yellow Turban Warriors, and Yun was very curious about why the word 'Feather Kill' made the general's iron cavalry like a ghost!" ”

"Huh!" Xiang Ao smiled lightly, and secretly asked in his heart: I couldn't help but ask. Pour Zhao Yun tea with ease. Seeing this, Zhao Yun quickly got up and held the tea cup with both hands and respectfully accepted the tea.

"This is my personal guard, and the method of training is inconvenient to reveal!" Xiang Ao said lightly, but there was a little cunning in his eyes.

When Zhao Yun heard this, he looked extremely embarrassed. Why is the world's view so big, that is, some secret methods are inconvenient to reveal to ordinary people, and it is indeed rude for Zhao Yun to visit and ask bluntly today. He apologized and said, "It's Yun reckless, don't blame the general!" ”

"Zilong was originally Ah Liang and Xiaoya's cousin, and at the same time I am close to my relatives, but the family teacher asked not to pass on this method to others, and I hope Zilong will not blame him!" Xiang Ao said unapologetically: "But..."

"But how?" When Zhao Yun saw Xiang Ao's words, he knew that there was still a chance, so he hurriedly asked with a little rudeness.

Seeing Zhao Yun like this, Xiang Ao no longer teased Zhao Yun, and said bluntly: "But if Zilong is willing to join my retainers, he can learn it by enlisting in the army!" After saying that, Xiang Ao no longer paid attention to Zhao Yun and let Zhao Yun think for himself.

Xi Zhong was glaring on the side. This person seems to come from a poor background, right? Do you still need to think? General Han Wei, this matter is also unique in the DPRK, not to mention that my lord is still so young, and his future is definitely immeasurable. What to think?

Zhao Yun was indeed a little entangled at this time, originally Zhao Yun recruited the Xiangyong Righteous Army to serve the imperial court, but before he recognized Zhao Liang, he planned to defect to Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Zhan was in the northern Xinjiang to shock Wuhuan and Xianbei, and Zhao Yun was very yearning. After seeing Xiang Ao's personal guard this time, he wondered where to go.

In fact, for Zhao Yun, if he chooses Xiang Ao, he will have a greater chance of being a marquis in the future, after all, Xiang Ao's power at this time is much greater than Gongsun Zhan, and he has the relationship with Zhao Liang, who will definitely be reused. But the original intention was Gongsun Zhan, and Zhao Yun didn't want to deny his decision too much. As a courtier, he should be loyal, and he can't see any strange thoughts, although Zhao Yun has not seen Gongsun Zan at this time.

However, the temptation of the 'Feather Killing Array', Zhao Yun was indeed difficult to refuse, and Zhao Yun even had a feeling of being separated from the world. It seems that he was born for the illusion of 'feather killing.' Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment before making a decision.

Zhao Yun got up, knelt on one knee, saluted the general, and bowed to Xiang Ao with his fists: "Yun greets the lord!" ”

"Hahaha..."Xiang Ao laughed, stepped forward to help Zhao Yun and said: "I have Zilong, I will definitely make the 'Feather Kill' powerful in the world!" ”

"What does the lord mean?" Zhao Yun was stunned for a while, how could I make the 'Feather Kill' powerful in the world?

"In the future, the 'Feather Kill' will be led by Zilong!" Xiang Ao looked at Zhao Yun solemnly!

Zhao Yun's eyes widened when he heard this, he didn't want Xiang Ao to value him so much and put such a heavy army in his hands, Zhao Yun's heart was almost full of gratitude, and his blood was boiling. looked at Xiang Ao excitedly, knelt down on one knee and said aloud: "Yunding lives up to the trust of the lord!" ”

"Huh... Zilong doesn't have to be so polite! Xiang Ao picked up Zhao Yun again and said.

Zhao Yun didn't listen to what Xiang Ao said at all, but excitedly thought about leading the 'Feather Killing' to dominate the world in the future. Xiang Ao did not blame.

"Congratulations to the lord for getting a talent again!" "Congratulations to Brother Zilong for meeting Ming Gong!" Xi Zhong got up at the right time to congratulate the two. The two also returned the favor politely.

"After pacifying the Yellow Turban, I will return to the Northern Regions, and I will teach Zilong the method of training 'Feather Killing'!"

"It's all up to the lord!"
