Chapter 229 Liu Shi retreats and galls are relieved
On the broad head of the city, several people dressed like generals were nervously watching the development of the battle, and the soldiers next to them, who were more tattered than them, were stubbornly resisting the attack of the Yellow Turban Army.
Although everyone is covered in mud and blood, their hair is knotted, and their faces are even more dirty, I am afraid that even when they return home, their wives may not be able to recognize them, but they are such soldiers, but everyone's eyes are shining, and from the muscles exposed in the tattered clothes, it can be seen that the elite degree of this group of soldiers is no less than that of any elite army of the Han Dynasty, and the killing intent that is sprinkled up and down the body makes the enemy feel the cold of the forest from ten zhang away.
"Resist this wave of attacks for me, and kill all the Yellow Turban thieves !!" A general jumped out first, brandishing the sword in his hand to direct the battle, as long as he boarded the Yellow Turban sergeant in the nearby city, he was immediately cut in two.
"Jun Ye, you take a rest first, and I will temporarily command it here" The slightly older man in the rear saw him jumping out brandishing his sword again, and hurriedly came out to block him.
Killing an enemy soldier with a knife, the general turned around and looked at the person, and said with a wry smile, "Kong Gongxu is also going to the battlefield~~~~~ our big man is really unavailable."
"Where did Jun Ye say, the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, although I Kong Ling is the queen of Confucius, but I am also a minister of the Han Dynasty, why not go into battle to kill the enemy, besides, I am just a foreigner, and the people of their own clan do not regard me as a descendant of Confucius at all, but the head of your Guo clan is guarding the lonely city, and I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive."
"After Confucius, after Confucius, what inner and outer races, not all the same, they don't admit it, but everyone in the world recognizes you, forget it, don't talk about these unhappy things, you ~~~~~ the enemy's offensive has been a lot smaller, take this opportunity to rest."
Above the city, there was no Yellow Turban Army to climb up at this time, and although the soldiers defending the city were all scarred and out of breath, they were full of spirit, and after repelling the last group of enemy troops, they began a short rest.
The people who watched the battle just now also sat down to rest for a while, and the two eldest of them were already gray-haired, but their eyes were still shining, full of energy, and their spirits were not much worse than others.
One of them slowed down and said in a deep voice, "I have been surrounded here for more than half a year, there is no news, and I don't know what the outside world is like, it seems that this big man is really overwhelmed."
Kong Ling lamented, "When I was in Chenliu, the momentum of the Yellow Turban Thief was extremely fierce, although Feng Taishou fought hard, but he was still unable to do it, and he was martyred, I wanted to stay in Chenliu to continue to fight the thief, but the thief Kou cut off the back road, and had to come to Junye, but I didn't expect that this place was even more tragic, this Yellow Turban Army is too powerful."
"Don't increase the popularity of thieves, the 300,000 army outside the city, haven't we still been guarding for more than half a year, don't forget~~~ The enemy is ten times as many as us, and I Guo Dian doesn't believe that these thieves can treat me in this gall pottery city."
"Mrs. Guo is so ambitious, he is worthy of being the head of the Guo family, I believe that reinforcements will arrive soon, everyone must hold on, the court will not let these thieves mess up for too long, we must have confidence in the court."
"Ding Lao is right, Jizhou is the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, there must be no mistakes, the imperial court must have sent troops to help at this time, we just need to hold on a little longer" Kong Ling also lifted his breath and said excitedly.
Guo Taishou smiled bitterly, "I'm nothing, it's just that I suffered the two Ding Laos, I didn't expect to encounter a rebellion of thieves when I came here to inspect, and it was my fault to be trapped here."
"Hahahaha~~~ It's nothing, our two old guys are just hiding here, you don't know that the court seems to be comfortable, but it's actually more dangerous, those eunuchs are more vicious than the Yellow Turban thieves, besides, we've been waiting for more than half a year, looking at this gang of thieves today's crazy attack, I know that the reinforcements are coming, I guess it should be not far away!!".
"Alas~~~ If it weren't for my brother being driven out of Yanmen by Huangfu Lao'er, I would never have been trapped for half a year, with the elite strength of Yanmen, it should be easy to solve the siege of my gall, it should be easy for him to bully people, I will swear to him not to give up" Taishou Guo Dian snorted coldly, and when he thought of Huangfu Song suppressing his siblings, his heart was extremely angry.
"Huangfu Song has done a little too much over the years, his Huangfu family is also a famous family, how can he bully people, but since the court does not ask about this matter, it is expected that there is a deep meaning in it, and it is good for the monarch to be patient for a while, otherwise I am afraid that it will lead to death, I still have a little relationship in the court, and when the disaster of the Yellow Turban subsides, I will make a plan after a little inquiry."
"Thank you Ding Lao for remembering, now that the DPRK and the Central Government are controlled by the eunuch party, there are fewer and fewer people like Ding Lao, no wonder the world is in chaos like this, it's time to rectify it."
At this moment, there was another sound of horns from under the city, and Guo Dian snorted angrily, "The thieves are here again, you wait a moment to see how I slaughter these anti-thieves~~~~~~ After that, he shook his sword and began to command the battle again.
Layer by layer of the Yellow Turban Army rushed up to the city of Gall Tao without fear of death, it was originally an army composed of poor people, rebellion is death, and not rebellion is a dead end, and now it is instigated by several sacrificial generals to rush and kill desperately, but it also makes the defenders above the city feel a headache.
The battle ahead is in full swing, but in the barracks behind him, it has begun to quietly begin to prepare to retreat, from morning to night, it has been a whole day, and the tens of thousands of death squads organized by Liu Shi have suffered heavy casualties in this day, often a thousand-person team rushes up alive, and no one can come back.
"Liu Shuai, I'm ready, ready to go at any time" Lei Gong came to Liu Shi's tent and said in a low voice.
Liu Shi nodded lightly, "Okay~~ While Huang Fu Song has not been killed, and the old thing has not been discovered, let's leave as soon as possible, otherwise everyone will die without a place to be buried, pass on my military order, and tell everyone to set off north of Anping, bypassing Huang Fu Song's army, as long as they flee to Youzhou, with his Liu Yu's remnants of the army will not be able to stop us at all, and it will be easy to escape to the outside of the Saiwai at that time."
"Liu Shuai is clever, I'll go and give the order~~~~" Lei Gong retreated.
At the third watch, outside the city of Gauntao, the soldiers on both sides were still fighting bloodily, but a group of soldiers quietly came out from behind the barracks, circled around from ten miles outside the city, and headed towards the northeast.
"Jun Ye, the situation is not good, although the Yellow Turban Thieves attacked very fiercely in the past, they never fought at night, looking at today's posture, do you want to fight to the death, not to break?" Kong Ling frowned secretly, after a whole day of fierce fighting, everyone was already very tired, but masters like them still had spare strength, but they were a little worried in their hearts.
Guo Dian is also assigning manpower, while commanding to boost morale, but for Kong Ling's worries, he is also worried, although he has resisted the siege of thieves for more than half a year, but the soldiers in the city are also a lot of damage, but the soldiers in the battle are less than forty percent, if this continues, I am afraid that this city will not be able to hold, is it really going to die here?
"What do you see over there?" Suddenly, an old man next to him rushed forward and shouted at the city.
Everyone looked over, only to see the fire in the enemy camp in the distance, obviously already in chaos, although it was not like the chaos caused by the enemy's surprise attack, but it also affected the nearby enemy troops, because just now there was already the sound of Ming Jin collecting troops, it seems that the Yellow Turban Army's siege today is finally over.
"It seems that there is a problem inside the thieves, this is the right time, prepare a horse for me, I want to rush out of the city and kill them by surprise" Guo Dian hurriedly shouted.
"The monarch is slow, the soldiers have been fighting hard for a day, they are already exhausted, how can they still have the strength to go out to kill the enemy, and although the enemy army is chaotic, there are two or three hundred thousand people, and they don't know the enemy's situation.
Guo Dian looked into the distance, only to see that the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army had begun to retreat back at this time, and the fire in the military camp in the distance was still chaotic, and he didn't know what was going on, he looked at the people around him, all of them were tired, although he barely shook his spirits, he still couldn't hide the sleepiness in his eyes, and sighed secretly and said, "Okay, leave two teams of guards, and the rest of the people will wait to rest."
In this way, the Yellow Turban Army successfully withdrew to the barracks, and at this time, there was chaos in the commander's tent, and one by one, the generals, sacrificial wine, military advisors and others were discussing and arguing.
"What to do? Liu Shuai actually left us and others to abscond at this time, what should we do in the future? ”。
"Nonsense, it's still a fart to say these at this time, in my opinion, it's better to run away, I heard that Huangfu Song's army has arrived near Pingjian, this is to bypass us from Zhao State, and if we wait, we will be surrounded and annihilated."
"Fart, he only has 100,000 people, and there are still 200,000 people on our side, and there are many people who are afraid of him, just come, it's a big deal to fight with him!!".
Everyone, you say a word, Liu Shi is gone, no one in this gang of generals obeys anyone, there is no one who can make a decision, there are endless quarrels in the big tent, and if it goes on, I am afraid that a battle for power will be launched soon.
At this moment, the two big men stepped in as soon as they lifted the tent curtains, and scanned the crowd with cold eyes, the partial generals and sacrificial wine and others in the tent were frightened, and it was the two generals who withdrew from the front, Tao Sheng and Peng Zai, these two people are also one of the best in Jizhou, and the two big sacrificial wines under Liu Shi are only slightly worse than Zhang Sheng who died in Quyang, but at this time, there is no one to compete with them.
"Be quiet, what's going on, who's going to explain it to me?" Peng Zai snorted coldly, and everyone was shocked, and they all stepped back and were honest.
At this time, the military advisor who knew the reason for the sacrifice wine told the two of them what had happened, and when they heard the news, they were also taken aback, and they were stunned for a long time before they came to their senses.
"Pinghan~~~ What should I do now?" Although Peng Zai is also one of the big sacrificial wines, he usually looks forward to Tao Sheng's horse, and he also asked nervously at this time.
Tao Sheng glanced at the generals and said coldly, "Today's matter must not leak the news, otherwise there will be chaos in the army, and people will come!! ”。
At the sound of an order, more than a dozen big men immediately rushed into the tent, Tao Sheng sneered twice and said, "Everyone, everyone knows each other, but life and death are fateful, you can't blame me~~~~~ they all cut me down~~."
'Ah~~You dare~~~Puff~~~" The big men's steel knives were instantly unsheathed, and before everyone could react, they were cut down to the ground one by one, and a few of them reacted quickly and wanted to resist, but with their ability, they were too small, and their bodies moved, and in the shouting and scolding of several people, the palm wind decisively slapped on their foreheads, and suddenly bled and died.
