Chapter 139 Outside Linzi City
The Yellow Turban was blinded by Ye Chen's sudden blow, and when Ye Chen and the others rushed into the back of the Yellow Turban, they immediately turned their rear formation upside down.
The edge of the cavalry, after breaking through the enemy's position, is a massacre, and thousands of spears will take a life after attacking.
Soon, Ye Chen and the others had already broken through the back formation of the Yellow Turban and killed them in front of them. At this time, the leader of the Yellow Turban had already reacted, and hurriedly commanded the changing formation, wanting to block the cavalry that broke through.
But things are not so simple, the Yellow Turban has not undergone any training, this sudden change of formation, all of a sudden made the Yellow Turban chaotic, Ye Chen and they took this opportunity to kill a large number of Yellow Turbans.
"Break through the front and kill their siege team." The front and back formations of the yellow scarves were in a mess, and Ye Chen didn't entangle with them, and rushed over directly.
The teams that were besieging the city also noticed that the yellow turbans behind them were in chaos, but they did not command, did not know what to do, and were hesitating.
The leader of the Yellow Turban has been trying to command the Yellow Turban army to surround Ye Chen and them, so he didn't care about the siege team for the time being, but he didn't expect that before he could organize the siege, they had already broken through the rear and front formations and killed directly on the siege team.
The besieging teams were even more miserable, first of all, they were unprepared, and secondly, they were rushing forward, and they were killed and wounded by the escort battalion in a large number of ways, and it was relatively open here, and the cavalry was unhindered, and they could crisscross at will.
There were more than 10,000 people in the siege team, and more than half of them were killed by the escort battalion at once, and they were killed without the power of backhand.
The siege team had to stop, but it was no better, the cavalry had enough space to charge back and forth a few times, and these people would be slaughtered.
Most of the yellow turbans under the "Attack Cloud Ladder" were resolved, and Ye Chen immediately ordered the idle guard battalion to attack the Cloud Ladder.
Some of the people on the ladder have come down, but a ladder climbs a few people, and there is no way to come down quickly, the cavalry swept along the root of the wall, and one by one the ladders were broken, and the people on it could not escape the fate of falling, and many people fell to their deaths.
Some of these who went up to the city wall were tragic, and there was no support behind them, they would definitely not be able to defeat the defenders above, only one would die, and at this time their retreat was cut off, even if they jumped down, they would die. Although he didn't know how many yellow scarves there were in the city, Ye Chen knew that none of them would come back.
When Ye Chen solved the siege of the Yellow Turbans, the rest of the Yellow Turbans recovered from the chaos at this time, and at this time they were quite afraid of this cavalry, and they did not dare to come forward to attack for a while.
For this situation, Ye Chen was also happy to be idle, and began to tidy up the team under the city wall, and after a while, the whole team was tidy, exuding a strong might.
Ye Chen let the guard battalion stay in place, and he was alone, and came to a place more than 100 meters in front of the Yellow Turban camp, at this time, Ye Chen held the overlord halberd in his hand, and sat down on the majestic war horse, which set off a majestic general.
"You are a good citizen, forced to be a thief by life, I am Ye Chen of Liaodong, I am willing to divide the land and food, so that your life is stable, you can surrender quickly, otherwise my cavalry will pass, there will be no armor left, the court has issued an edict, the rebel army is hundreds of thousands, the Yellow Turban thieves will not last long, now the opportunity is in front of you, you must not miss it, and you will harm your life."
Ye Chen shouted in front of the Yellow Turban Formation, this was not that he was pretending, but that he had a purpose. As soon as he explains his identity, is willing to take them in, and gives them a stable life, he is promoting himself, spreading his good name, and leaving them with a good impression.
This second is the threat, further disintegrating their morale, they have also seen the power of their own cavalry, even if they can't help them for a while, but the imperial court has ordered the suppression of bandits, and there are hundreds of thousands of righteous troops alone, these words have invisibly hit the morale of the Yellow Turbans very hard.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, archers attack." The leader of the Yellow Turban thought for a while and understood the intention of Ye Chen's words, and shouted angrily.
There were not a few archers in the Yellow Turban, and they were more than a hundred meters away from them, unless a marksman like Huang Zhong or Tai Shici could give Ye Chen some threat, and they couldn't keep Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's goal had been achieved, he turned his horse's head and went back, and at this time, only a few arrows were shot out of the Yellow Turban camp, and he didn't even touch Ye Chen's shadow.
At this time, the morale of the Yellow Turbans was low, and in order to save the situation, the leaders of the Yellow Turbans wanted to surround the escort camp and use the tactics of crowds to leave them behind. Ye Chen saw their purpose, so Ye Chen decisively rushed out from the side.
The yellow turban leader's teeth rattled, and he couldn't wait to eat Ye Chen raw, he had just been charged by the cavalry, so that he lost at least more than 20,000 people, it was only more than an hour, and how much did he lose in a day of siege.
Although he was very angry, there was no way, because they couldn't catch up at all, only some of the big and small leaders in the Yellow Turban had war horses, and the rest could only go on foot, so they could only watch Ye Chen and them leave calmly.
"Lord, what should we do next?" After retreating for more than ten miles, Guan Yu asked.
Guan Yu will ask directly because he is also thinking, but he is a little confused, although there is an edict from the imperial court, there is merit in suppressing bandits, with their merits, he should be able to get an official body, and he can also bid farewell to the identity of a wanted criminal, but he looked all the way and was confused about the entire Han.
"Wait, now that the morale of the Yellow Turbans is declining rapidly, looking for an opportunity to sneak attack them will definitely be able to break the Yellow Turban thieves." Ye Chen said to Guan Yu.
In fact, Guan Yu didn't look at the yellow scarves in front of him, he was completely confident to exterminate them, Guan Yu just watched too much along the way, and his mood was a little heavy.
Ye Chen and the others camped more than ten miles away from the Yellow Turban, sending scouts to pay attention at any time.
The scouts reported that the Yellow Turbans tentatively planned to attack the city, and the morale of the Yellow Turbans was really hit hard, the morale of the entire battalion was low, and a small number of Yellow Turbans fled.
"Tiger Head."
"Young master, what do you command?"
"Go and write a letter that we will attack the camp tonight, and that the defenders of the city should join in, and if they agree, light a torch on the eastern wall and stick it in the battlements.
Ye Chen said to the tiger head.
"It's a letter again." The tiger head muttered dissatisfiedly and walked out.
The last time the tiger head went to deliver the letter, he originally thought that he could fight with the Yellow Turbans, but who would have thought that the Yellow Turban thieves were half frightened to death when they saw their cavalry.
Of course, Ye Chen's words Tiger Head would listen, and immediately brought a team of people over, this time it was different from last time, the Yellow Turban had defense, and the Tiger Head had to complete anything first, try to avoid the Yellow Turban, rush all the way to the city, and shoot the letter into the city.
When they came back, there were yellow turbans who saw that they were few and tried to intercept them, but they were easily rushed out by the tiger head and led people, and killed and injured dozens of them.
There was a yellow turban to report this to their leader, and the leader of the yellow turban guessed that Ye Chen had a conspiracy, but he couldn't help it knowing that there was a conspiracy, because now the morale of the yellow turban was low, and he couldn't go to war if he wanted to.
If he can't win the battle, his morale will be further hit, and then his morale will be even lower, and he will collapse if he is not careful, so he is now trying his best to maintain the status quo of the Yellow Turban and maintain good morale.
In fact, maintaining the morale of the Yellow Turban is very simple, that is, to give everyone a full meal, but now the Yellow Turban does not have much food, and this simple requirement is difficult to meet, and now most of the Yellow Turbans can only eat half full.
The leader of the Yellow Turbans promised them that as long as they could capture Linzi City, they would be fed, but this was not very effective in boosting morale.
At night, a torch was planted on the city of Linzi, which was a signal of agreement to cooperate with the outside and the outside.
It was late at night, but the leader of the Yellow Turban couldn't sleep, he didn't know what the other party's conspiracy was, but the situation of the Yellow Turban at this time was worrying, which made him feel powerless.
Ye Chen quietly came to the Yellow Turban camp three miles outside the Yellow Turban Camp with the escort battalion, the Yellow Turban seemed to know that it would come to sneak attack, the entire camp was fully prepared and strictly protected, but in Ye Chen's opinion, it was still full of loopholes.
