Last time, it was said that the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army and the Hanting Central Army had been in a stalemate for a month, and the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army suddenly took the initiative to attack.

Lu Zhi led the Han army in the camp, facing the Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Zhi saw that the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side was numerous, but judging by its size, it should not be all the troops of the Yellow Turban in Jizhou. The number of people is large, not that you can estimate it if you want to, but compared with the 20,000 Han army, the array of the Yellow Turban Army is still some distance. It's just that Lu Zhi himself didn't directly pull out all the troops, he only brought out 8,000 soldiers. Looking at the Yellow Turban Army array, the number of people should be more than the soldiers brought out by themselves. That is, the number of the Yellow Turban Army is between 8,000 and 20,000.

Lu Zhi also saw the word "Zhang" fluttering on the banner of the Yellow Turban Army, but Lu Zhi was not sure that it was Zhang Jiao in person.

Lu Zhi was still thinking about the intention of the Yellow Turban Army here, so he flew out of the opposite side and rode to the center of the two armies, shouting at the Han army: "I am Zhang Niujiao, a disciple of General Tiangong, and Dongfang Xiong on the opposite side will come out and die!" ”

Lu Zhi heard a little about this Zhang Niujiao, and heard that he was Zhang Jiao's second disciple, but he didn't know his origin. Lu Zhi also heard that this horn was named because he liked to wear horn helmets, but it was not confirmed, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.

Dongfang Xiong was one of Lu Zhi's lieutenants, a man of Emperor Liu Hong, who claimed to be the famous minister of the Han Dynasty, Dongfang Shuo. However, he is very different from his ancestors, he does not follow the literature, he follows the martial arts, he is tall and powerful.

A few days ago, it was Dongfang Xiong and He Meng who took turns to take people to provoke the Yellow Turban Army, so Zhang Niujiao recognized it.

He Meng is a clansman of the great general He Jin, has always followed He Jin's side, is He Jin's absolute confidant, and has been serving as He Jin's deputy general before. But he has always been a deputy general, so it is difficult to get ahead, so this time He Jin gave He Meng the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and told him to perform well, and when He Meng returned for meritorious service, He Jin would have an excuse to arrange for He Meng to lead an army alone, and then the position of his He family would be more stable.

Zhang Niujiao did not ask He Meng to go out of battle, but provoked Dongfang Xiong, which was arranged by Zhang Jiao himself. Zhang Jiao did a lot of preparation for this battle. He investigated the internal contradictions of the Han Court, and even the farce that happened in the Luoyang Hall in early February was also seen by Zhang Jiao using divination. Therefore, Zhang Jiao was very aware of the contradiction between Emperor Liu Hong and the general He Jin, and he also knew that Emperor Liu Hong was the weak party now, so Dongfang Xiong was more eager to establish military merit than He Meng.

Zhang Jiao planned to strike at Dongfang Xiong's prestige again in front of everyone in the Han army, and after forcing Dongfang Xiong to a dead end, he would use Dongfang Xiong's meritorious service to lead him into the encirclement.

After Zhang Niujiao shouted, Dongfang Xiong did not respond to the battle, but rushed out of the Han army formation and rushed towards Zhang Niujiao without saying a word.

Zhang Niujiao shouted at the young general: "Come and get a name!" I don't kill nobodies under my axe! ”

The young general shouted, "When you die by my spear, I will tell you!" ”

Zhang Niujiao was furious and shouted: "What a gut! The pawn is dead! As he spoke, he slapped his horse and rushed towards the general.

The young general raised his spear and stabbed, Zhang Niujiao did not avoid it, and an axe was as fast as lightning and slashed towards the young general's face.

The young general didn't want to die with Zhang Niujiao, so he could only draw his spear back to block. It's a pity that this young general doesn't have Zhang Fei's divine power, his spear shaft is not all iron like Zhang Fei, although it is hardwood, but he underestimated the power of Zhang Niujiao, and was split in half by Zhang Niujiao's axe and spear.

Although Zhang Niujiao is Zhang Jiao's disciple, he is different from Liang Sheng, he didn't follow Zhang Jiao as a child, he was already an adult when he met Zhang Jiao. He is of the same sex as Zhang Jiao, because he was born as strong as a cowboy, so his father called him Zhang Cowboy. When Zhang Cowboy grew up, he became a woodcutter, because he was strong, cutting trees and chopping firewood was as simple as chopping tofu, and he could harvest a large pile of firewood every day. But no matter how great his strength is, no matter how much he can chop wood, he still has to eat, and when he encounters a famine in Jizhou, he can only flee. Later, when he met Zhang Jiao Jimin, Zhang Cowboy ate Zhang Jiao's meal and followed Zhang Jiao.

Zhang Jiao soon discovered Zhang Cowboy's ability, so he accepted him as a disciple. Since then, Cowboy Zhang has been on secret missions for Zhang Jiao. It was also at that time that Zhang Cowboy felt that his name was too weak and could not match his figure and strength at all, so he changed his name and changed it to a name that he knew was full of danger and lethality when he heard it, and he was called Zhang Niujiao. In order to let others remember his new name, Zhang Niujiao ordered a horn helmet for himself and wore it on his head every day.

And Zhang Niujiao's unique weapon, the horn axe, was transformed on the basis of his own wood-cutting axe. Not only did the long handle be replaced, the axe body was thickened, and the horns were inlaid on the axe.

Pity the courageous Han general just now, before he left his name, he was chopped by Zhang Niujiao like firewood.

Seeing that their generals defeated the enemy with one move, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army soared, and they shouted in unison: "General Zhang is mighty!" General Zhang is invincible! ”

On the side of the Han army, Dongfang Xiong's face was very ugly, although he didn't go out to fight just now, but the young man who died was his general, or his cousin, called Dongfang Qi. His cousin should have felt that Zhang Niujiao was not worthy of letting his cousin make a move, so he spontaneously rushed out to fight.

Dongfang Xiong looked at He Meng's side, and when he saw He Meng smiling at himself, Dongfang Xiong's heart hated even more, and he was annoyed: He Meng's guy was obviously looking at my joke!

Dongfang Xiong retracted his gaze, looked left and right at his side, and called: "Who will take down the thief for me?" ”

One of the fierce generals came out of the ranks, and said on the horse: "Brother, I'll go!" ”

Dongfang Xiong took a closer look and found that it was his other cousin, Dongfang Qi's own brother - Dongfang Shen. Dongfang Xiong looked at Dongfang Shen with some concern, although Dongfang Shen's strength was much stronger than Dongfang Qi, Dongfang Xiong still didn't want to let his cousin take risks.

Seeing his cousin's hesitation, Dongfang Shen said: "Brother, my brother's revenge, I must avenge it with my own hands!" ”

Seeing that his cousin was determined to take revenge with his own hands, Dongfang Xiong did not continue to stop him, his Dongfang family wanted to reproduce the glory of Dongfang Shuo, but he couldn't keep shrinking behind everyone, he had to make a name for himself himself.

Dongfang Xiong nodded to his cousin and advised, "Be careful! ”

Dongfang Shen hugged his fists and responded: "Get the order!" Then he circled the horses and ran out of the array, and rushed to Zhang Niujiao. Dongfang Shen didn't want to fight Zhang Niujiao directly, he wanted Zhang Niujiao to die clearly, so he didn't rush to Zhang Niujiao at full speed.

Zhang Niujiao saw another general rushing out of the Han army, and shouted: "Dongfang Xiong? ”
