Under Guangzong City, nearly 80,000 troops surrounded Guangzong City, yes, in addition to siege equipment and grain and grass, Lu Zhi also gathered more than 30,000 soldiers and horses during this time. That posture was obviously intended to completely trap Zhang Jiao in Guangzong City.

It seems a bit ridiculous, after all, there are hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops in Guangzong City. It's just obvious that no matter how many troops there are, it will be useless if they can't rush out, not to mention how many people the Yellow Turban Army can rush out of the city at one time, the thousand-man cavalry and crossbow troops arranged by Lu Zhi in the four gates alone are enough to make the Yellow Turban Army who want to break through pay a huge price.

"I really can't imagine that Zhang Jiao didn't react at all, not only did he not stop our army from besieging the city, but he didn't even show his face now." Lu Zhi sighed.

"Maybe Zhang Jiao thinks that as long as we are dragged down, the rest of Taiping Road will have plenty of time to develop, right? After all, compared with us, ordinary local officers and soldiers are still so much worse. Li Yi said when he heard this.

"What Zikang said is Zhang Baobu in Bohai County?" Lu Zhi asked.

"Yes, I heard that Zhang Bao has almost no opponents in Bohai County, and he has even burned the flames of war to Hejian County and Qingzhou......" Li Yi nodded and said.

"It's really a problem, but ......" Lu Zhi nodded, but then he shook his head again, because he didn't have much to do about it. Now that the imperial court has sent Lu Zhi and the three of them, it is true that there are no troops to send, unless the troops guarding the Luoyang checkpoint are sent, but that is obviously impossible.

Therefore, the only ones who can rely on the local officers and soldiers themselves are the ones themselves, but the reality really makes Lu Zhi sad and angry, because the local officers and soldiers who eat the salaries of the imperial court every year are so vulnerable. You must know that in Lu Zhi's view, except for some of the troops, the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army is simply not worth mentioning. But it was such a worthless unit that killed the local officers and soldiers to the point of abandoning their armor.

"After quelling this thief rebellion, I must go to the imperial court and ruthlessly rectify the local troops! If it weren't for them being so useless, how could the Yellow Turban Army expand so much in such a short period of time?! Lu Zhi said indignantly.

In this regard, Li Yi neither agreed nor opposed, because he had nothing to say. In Li Yi's view, there are too many reasons for the Yellow Turban Uprising, but many of the root causes are simply not something that the current Lu Zhi or Li Yi can change, such as years of natural disasters, such as the endless struggle between scholars and eunuchs......

While talking, it didn't take long for the two of them to come to a place in the barracks, and seeing these affairs in front of them, the things that Li Yi was thinking about were instantly thrown out of his mind by him. "This is the ladder truck? That's a crash car, that's a ......" Li Yi looked at the various siege equipment in front of him, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Although he had seen the introduction of these instruments in books, it was the first time he had seen the real thing.

This can't be helped, because in the annexed states, or most places, there are simply not too many siege equipment, and some of them are left over from a long time ago. After all, they are all their own cities, who are they built to attack? Especially in Bingzhou, I don't know if I am worried about being robbed by the Hu people, even if there is no equipment in Guanglusai.

Moreover, the manufacturing methods and even loading and unloading methods of many siege equipment are secret, even if there are many followers of the Yellow Turban Army, and now they are sweeping the world, but there are not too many of these seemingly complex instruments.

"It's a trebuchet, a weapon that can throw boulders into enemy cities for attack. Unfortunately, it is difficult to manufacture, and it is also troublesome to load and unload, and it is completely impossible to move. Lu Zhi said when he heard this.

"I see~" Li Yi sighed, and at the same time pondered that after returning to Bingzhou, he must get a few talents in this area. Well? Make your own? Ahem, it's a pity that Li Yi never scored higher than 50 points in junior high school physics in his previous life, making this thing? It's too embarrassing for Li Yi.

Lu Zhi took Li Yi in the military camp and kept looking at the siege equipment, while in Guangzong City, Zhang Jiao was sitting in the house drinking tea, and his calm expression did not show any tension in the situation.

After a while, Zhang Liang's voice came from outside the door, "Big brother, the people have been brought!" ”

"Oh~Hurry up, please come in~" Zhang Jiao suddenly laughed when he heard this.

With his words, Zhang Liang pushed the door in, and four yellow turban wrestlers behind him walked in with two men.

"Get on your knees!" Zhang Liang saw that after the two walked in, they just stood there and ignored them, and immediately roared angrily.

"Lonely is Liu's ......" One of the younger ones glared at Zhang Liang angrily when he heard this, and he was about to scold angrily with his mouth, but he felt that his popliteal fossa had been hit, and he knelt down involuntarily. When they reacted, there was a huge force from their shoulders, so that even if they wanted to get up, they had no choice.

"Thieves! You can't wait for a pariah, how dare you treat Lone like this?! Aren't you afraid that after the officers and soldiers come in, they will let them wait for the nine clans?! The young man shouted angrily. This person was Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, and the other old man was Liu Xu, the king of Anping, both of whom were captured and sent to Zhangjiao because the county town was broken by the Yellow Turban Army.

"Presumptuous! A defeated dog of the Han family...... "Zhang Liang was annoyed when he heard this, no one in his life was respected, only his eldest brother Zhang Jiao, now this Liu Zhong dared to insult Zhang Jiao, how could Zhang Liang not be angry? It's just that just when Zhang Liang was about to slap him and teach this subordinate prisoner a good lesson, Zhang Jiao opened his mouth to stop him.

"Third brother, don't be angry, after all, what King Ganling said is indeed true~" Zhang Jiao said with a smile, "But King Ganling, now your king is not in your palace, but in a city ruled by me, a little pariah, so I have something to say...... You still have to weigh it, otherwise you will not only suffer yourself, but also affect your family~"

Although Zhang Jiao's tone sounded soft, anyone could hear the threat and coldness in it. Hearing this, although Liu Zhong's eyes were still full of anger, he still kept his mouth shut. A hero doesn't suffer immediate losses, let alone a dignified county king.

On the other side, Liu Xu, the king of Anping, said slowly, "Then I don't know what it means to be like this now?" Although both of us are descendants of the Liu family, it is absolutely impossible to rely on us to coerce General Lu Zhonglang to withdraw from the army. Liu Xu is 61 years old this year, and he is considered a long-lived person in this era, and when he speaks, he is also gentle and slow, and he can't hear a trace of anger.

"Hehe~ Of course, General Ben will not want to let Lu Zhi withdraw with the two of you, and even if Lu Zhi is willing, the Han court will not be willing." Zhang Jiao looked at the two of them and chuckled, "But~ You two have been here for so long, we can't support you for nothing, right?" ”
