Liu Bei received a long knife, shield, bow and arrow, handed it over to Xiang Yong to change, and suddenly a sense of murder arose. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Fei said: "Big brother, this is called the army. ”

Liu Bei nodded in satisfaction, while Guan Yu bowed slightly.

At this time, Captain Zou Jing came over on horseback, glanced at these villagers, and exclaimed: "Brother Xuande, recruit a good army." ”

Liu Bei smiled and said, "These brothers are all friends and neighbors of Bei's rivers and lakes, and many of them have fought with Karasuma. ”

Zou Jing exclaimed and said, "I don't know if Brother Xuande is ready, the Yellow Turban Thief is less than twenty miles away. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he said, "Okay, let's go out of the city and ask Captain Zou to prepare for the formation." ”

After speaking, he shouted: "Go, brothers! The time has come to make a difference. After saying that, he turned over his horse and ran out of the city.

Liu Bei and Zou Jing were ordered by Liu Yan to lead thousands of men and horses out of the city to break the enemy.

As soon as I walked to the foot of an unnamed mountain, I bumped into the Yellow Turban Army, only to see the people and horses on the opposite side, with their heads scattered, yellow turbans tied to their heads, carrying all kinds of weapons, some of which could not be called weapons, such as wooden sticks, shovels, etc., and the leading generals talked and laughed.

I saw Liu Bei and the others from a distance, and one of the leaders raised the gun in his hand and said: "Stop", for a while, the Yellow Turban Army pushed me to stop.

Liu Bei saw that the Yellow Turban Army stopped, and also tied up the people and horses, and then took the horses with him and ran out of the military formation, with Guan Yu on the left and Zhang Fei on the right.

Liu Bei raised his whip and pointed at the other party and scolded: "Anti-country and traitor, why don't you surrender early!" ”

Cheng Yuanzhi, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, was furious when he heard this, and assigned his deputy general Deng Mao to fight.

Here, Zhang Fei raised his Zhangba steel spear and went straight over, and as soon as the hand was closed, he stabbed Deng Mao off the horse.

Cheng Yuanzhi was shocked when he saw it, and slapped his horse and raised his knife to take Zhang Fei directly.

Guan Yu saw it here, and flew to meet it.

Cheng Yuanzhi was taken aback, caught off guard, and was cut into two pieces by Guan Yu.

When the Yellow Turban Army saw that the leader was beheaded, they dragged their guns and ran back, Liu Bei waved his army to chase after him, and countless people surrendered, and Liu Bei returned with a great victory.

Liu Yan was overjoyed, greeted him personally, set up wine to celebrate his achievements, and rewarded the sergeants.

The next day, he received an urgent report from Gong Jing, the Taishou of Gaoyang County, Jizhou, saying that the thief army was attacking the city in a hurry, and the city was about to fall, and asked for support.

Liu Yan took the urgent report to Liu Bei to discuss, and Liu Bei said: "The little nephew is willing to go to support." ”

Liu Yan ordered Zou Jing to lead 5,000 troops to Gaoyang with Liu Bei.

The Yellow Turban Army saw that Gaoyang City was about to be captured, and their morale was high, and they suddenly received a report that reinforcements from Youzhou were coming, and immediately divided their troops to intercept them.

Seeing that the Youzhou army was coming from afar, the sergeants were tired, and immediately commanded the Yellow Turban army to rush out, a melee, Liu Bei and other soldiers were few, and they were tired from afar, outnumbered, and forced to retreat twenty miles.

When the Yellow Turban Army saw that the Youzhou Army had withdrawn, they were not chasing after it, and they returned to celebrate their victory and congratulate them.

Liu Bei consulted with Guan, Zhang and Zou Jing, and Liu Bei said: "The enemy has many soldiers, but we have few soldiers, so we are not capable, so we can only use wisdom and complement each other with strange soldiers to win." ”

Zou Jing smiled slightly and asked, "Does Brother Xuande have a good plan?"

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Don't dare to have a good plan, although there are capable people among the thieves, but the whole sergeant is just a group of rabble, if you are in harmony with Qizheng, destroy its military heart, it is not difficult to defeat the thieves, if there is anything wrong, please also ask the captain to correct." ”

Then he said: "In the battle of the coming day, as long as we fake defeat, Yun Chang led an army to ambush on the left, and Yide led an army to ambush on the right. ”

Then he said: "It's just that this fake defeat still has to be played by me and Captain Zou, I wonder if Captain Zou is willing?" ”

Zou Jing laughed and said, "Good plan! Good plan! It's not a pity to work hard for the court, and it's not a pity to smear your liver and brain, let alone fake defeat? ”

Liu Bei immediately continued: "Captain Zou is really a loyal minister!" Admirable" is well arranged.

The next day, Liu Bei and Zou Jing led 3,000 men and horses to challenge, and the leader of the Yellow Turban Army received the report, and the general of the defeated army came to send him to death.

Zou Jing didn't answer, and moved forward. There was another scuffle, Liu Bei and the others could not resist the enemy, and they were defeated again, and the leader of the Yellow Turban Army shouted: "At this time, the army should work hard to move forward, catch Zou Jing, and the reward will be 100 taels, and the official will be promoted to one level." Suddenly, the drums beat everywhere, and the Yellow Turban Army rushed forward with a shout.

Seeing rushing over the hill in front, at this time, Liu Bei's army roared in unison, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were ambushed on both sides, rushed out together, Liu Bei turned back to kill, and a leader of the Yellow Turban Army who rushed too far could not dodge, and was stabbed off the horse by Liu Bei with a sword. The Yellow Turban Army was horrified, and it understood that it had been ambushed, and it flew back, how could it be in time, and it was immediately defeated and rushed to the city of Gaoyang.

Gong Jing, the Taishou of Gaoyang, originally saw the Youzhou reinforcements defeated twice, thinking that it was hopeless to defend the city, and was preparing to show loyalty to death, but suddenly saw that the Yellow Turban was defeated and retreated, and the heart of the Yellow Turban Army under the city was floating. Gong Jing is also a very decisive person, thinking that the opportunity is rare, he opened the city gate and led the army and civilians to fight together.

The Yellow Turban Army was suddenly attacked from both sides, was unprepared, and completely dispersed, defeated like a mountain, and suffered heavy casualties.

Liu Bei and Zou Jing led the army to chase out dozens of miles, captured a lot of prisoners, and captured countless grains and grass. The danger of Gaoyang is lifted.

Liu Bei and Zou Jing garrisoned outside the city, Gong Jing went out of the city to reward the army, Zou Jing pulled Liu Bei and said to Gong Jing: "This surname is Liu Mingbei, the word Xuande, the clan relative of the Han family, and the nephew of Liu Taishou just recognized." He used to be a thief in Zhuo County, and with dozens of robber officials alone, plus hundreds of villagers recruited by himself, he exterminated the mountain bandits who had lived in Zhuo County for several years.

The court was originally rewarded, but because of the death of Xuandejun's loving mother, he went home to keep filial piety for three years. Recruited by the Son of Heaven to organize hundreds of townships to bravely come out to fight against the Yellow Turban Thieves, the danger of Zhuo County in Youzhou also depends on this gentleman to solve.

Coming to the rescue of Gao Yang this time is not Xuan Dejun's plan, and it will inevitably go through a vicious battle, and the outcome is unpredictable. ”

When Gong Jing heard this, he was in awe, he didn't dare to be contemptuous, bowed his hand, and invited Zou Jing and Liu Bei to the city to celebrate their achievements. For two days, spies were sent to report that the Yellow Turbans had fled.

Seeing that the crisis had been resolved, Zou Jing prepared to bid farewell to Gong Jing and lead his troops back to Zhuo County.

Liu Bei said: "Recently, I heard that my mentor Lu Zhonglang and the thief Shou Zhang Jiao were fighting in Guangzong, and I was once a teacher of Lu Zhonglang, and I was favored by Lu Shi, and entered the hall and became his personal disciple. The situation of this battle is critical, and I want to go to help, and I also ask Captain Zou to explain to my uncle on my behalf. ”

Zou Jing nodded and said: "Xuan Dejun has this filial piety, he is willing to worry about his teacher, and Jing is self-fulfilling." I wanted to go with Xuande to contribute to the court and exterminate the moth thieves as soon as possible, but Jing was responsible for defending the city and could not leave his post without permission, and asked Xuandejun to greet Lu Zhonglang for me. So he led the army alone and returned to Zhuo County.

Liu Bei resigned to Gong Taishou again, Gong Jing saw that Liu Bei was still Lu Zhonglang's personal disciple, and he was even more respectful, and thanked Liu Bei again for his rescue, and wished that Liu Bei could come to him if he had something.

Liu Bei took the opportunity to ask for some grain and grass, and replenished hundreds of soldiers from the captives, and then led the men and horses of the headquarters with Guan and Zhang to run towards Guangzong.

When he came to Lu Zhi's army, after being reported, he entered the account to give gifts to Lu Zhi and explain his intentions. Lu Zhi was overjoyed and stayed in front of the tent to listen to the tune.

Zhang Jiao's 150,000 Yellow Turban Army occupied Guangzong City, and Lu Zhi led 50,000 elite soldiers of the Han Northern Army to fight Zhang Jiao in front of Guangzong City.

Zhang Jiao blindly held on and did not take the initiative to attack, vainly trying to drag down the elite of the Han with the 150,000 Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Zhi was worried that the officers and troops were already small in number, and the strong attack caused too many damages, which was not good for the officers and troops, so he adopted a siege strategy, and when the enemy was hungry and tired, he annihilated the enemy in one fell swoop, and they were stuck with each other for a while.

Lu Zhi said to Liu Bei: "I am now surrounded by thieves, and the thieves Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao are in Yingchuan, fighting against Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun. You can lead the people of the headquarters, and I will help you with a thousand officers and soldiers to go to Yingchuan to inquire about the news and make an appointment to arrest them. ”

Liu Bei nodded and said 'yes'.

Then he said: "The Yellow Turban Thief is not strong, but there are many personnel. Now we have been holding for a few months, at this time there will be no food in the city, we are surrounded by the enemy on all sides, the enemy will defend to the death, it is better for us to let go of one side, set up an ambush outside the city, the enemy will run out of the city, and we will be strangled, can't we break the enemy of Guangzong? ”

Lu Zhi nodded and said, "Although what Xuande said is in line with the art of war, there must be a shortage of siege divisions. If you only want to destroy or defeat the enemy here, this method is good, but this is the enemy's head, and if we open the net, it will be extremely difficult to decapitate it. If he is allowed to escape from Guangzong, the harm will be great. Therefore, it can only besiege and kill, causing a group of thieves to be leaderless, striking and disintegrating the morale of the enemy, and can also surround the point to send reinforcements, and count them in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Bei was enlightened, and the starry night led the army to Yingchuan.
