Chapter 58: The Withering of the Flower of the Revolt III

"Kill ......"

The sound of killing in Quyang City shook the sky, the sound of axes, golden drums, and wails were mixed into a purgatory symphony.

Zhang Bao personally stood on top of the city, braving the flying arrows, loudly bewitching and mobilizing: "Disciples of the Taiping Dao! Today is the day of our martyrdom! For the great ideal of great sages and good teachers, for the peace of the world! Disciples, great sages and good teachers are watching us from the yellow sky! Let us raise the weapons in our hands and fight to the end against these officers and soldiers who oppress us in front of us, and die with our bodies! The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand! ”

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand!" Under the encouragement of Zhang Baohan who was not afraid of death, nearly 10,000 remnants shouted slogans in unison, and then fiercely counterattacked the officers and troops who were attacking the city.

Looking at the scene that seemed to be purgatory in front of him, Huangfu Jianshou was already grinning, grabbed a lieutenant next to him, and said angrily: "You say, what's going on?" With such a low city wall and a broken city gate, why can't it be attacked until now? ”

"This, this ......" The questioned lieutenant was hesitant, and he really couldn't speak.

"Rubbish, all rubbish!" Huangfu Jianshou was very angry.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, ......whoa" slashed three times in a row, cutting off three of the tables in the camp. Looking at the disabled soldiers who were constantly carrying to the rear camp, Huangfu Jianshou's face turned pale and he scolded: "Yan Zhong, mistake me!" ”

The generals who followed left and right lowered their heads one after another, not daring to squeak.

Looking at the dejected generals in front of him, and then listening to the wailing from the back camp, Huangfu Jianshou looked at the small and dilapidated Quyang City in front of him hatefully, and said through gritted teeth: "Withdraw the army!" ”

"Major General, do you really want to withdraw?" When a lieutenant heard about the withdrawal, he was puzzled.

Huangfu insisted on glaring at him angrily, and said coldly: "If you don't withdraw, what else can you do?" Do you want to change your command? ”

......The lieutenant was speechless for a while, and it was indeed as the major general said, as soon as the war began, half of our soldiers had lost their combat strength, some were dead and some were wounded, but the enemy did not move at all, and withdrawal seemed to be the only way.

"No!" Seeing that there was no one to refute, the generals all said that they were ready to withdraw their troops.

Soon, the entire battlefield was filled with the sound of the retreating Han army.

"Haha, we have repelled the Han army!"

"We won ......"

"Yellow Heaven bless!"

Looking at the Han army retreating in embarrassment, the Yellow Turbans erupted into bursts of cries of victory. What they don't know, however, is that an even more brutal battle awaits them.

Huangfu Jianshou led the remnants of the army to return to Julu, and after less than three miles, he suddenly saw a lot of smoke and dust in front of him, as if a large army was coming.

Soon, Huangfu Jianshou saw a large Han army. I saw the word "Huangfu" written on the center of the army, and then looked at it fixedly, this leader is not officially his father, Huangfu Song!

Immediately, Huangfu insisted on dismounting and kneeling on the ground, crying and saying: "The last general is incompetent, he failed to break through Quyang, but he lost his troops and lost his generals, please punish the general!" ”

Huangfu Song looked at the disgraced son in front of him, and then looked at Yan Zhong and Liu Chang beside him.

When Yan Zhong saw Huangfu Song looking at him, he immediately fell off his war horse, prostrate on the ground, and said in a panic: "General, it's a mistake in judgment of humility, if you want to punish me, please don't embarrass the young general!" ”

Huangfu Song was silent, but raised his eyes to look at the remnants of the soldiers brought back by Huangfu Jianshou. I saw that the original troops of more than 10,000 people were sparsely scattered at the moment, and most of them were wounded, obviously suffering heavy losses. I couldn't help but be angry.

"Qiang ......" Huangfu Song drew his sword and shouted loudly: "Huangfu Jianshou, because of your ineffective command, our army has lost troops and generals, and if I don't kill you today, it is not enough to serve the people." Someone will execute this defeated army on the spot, and the military law will be corrected! ”

Huangfu Song's order has been issued, but no one has stepped forward for a long time, and he was furious for a while, so he personally held his sword and wanted to dismount. But as soon as he moved, he was pulled by a person. Turning his head to look, it was Liu Chang, who had been following him, and Huangfu Song said with some anger: "Shiming, what does this mean?" My son is not good at fighting, and he deserves to be punished, so don't stop him. ”

Liu Chang pulled Huang Fu Song hard, but after all, Huang Fu Song was a martial artist, and when he saw Huang Fu Song exert a little force, Liu Chang fell down the horse and fell into the mud. As the so-called falling fast and getting up fast, Liu Chang quickly turned over and stood up, and said to Huangfu Song, who was still stunned on the horse, and said: "General, the young general did not fight unfavorably, it can be said that the major general completed the task very well!" ”

"What?" Hearing Liu Chang's words, Huangfu Song looked surprised. Yan Zhong, who was kneeling on the side, was even more puzzled.

"What's going on? What does it mean to join the army? The generals who heard Liu Chang's words around also exchanged their heads. At this time, only Cao Cao watched silently from the side, as if he had thought of something, but he still looked at Liu Chang with some doubts.

Liu Chang flicked the dust off his body, turned around and helped Huangfu Jianshou and Yan Zhong up, and then grabbed their hands and said to Huangfu Song: "General, the young general and Lord Yan are the great heroes who pacified the Yellow Turban for us this time, why did the general punish them?" ”

"This ......" Huangfu Song was still confused at this point, he didn't know what medicine this little fox was selling, and asked helplessly: "Shiming, you said that they have merit, where does the merit come from?" ”

"If a person does not harm himself, the harm will be true; False, true, true, and false, can be done occasionally. Tong Meng's auspiciousness, obedient to Xunye. Liu Chang cranked the feather fan in his hand and narrated the bitter meat poems in the "Thirty-six Strategies" in later generations.

When Huangfu Song heard this, he stroked his beard and pondered.

Liu Chang knew that Huangfu Song would definitely not understand it for a while, so he immediately explained: "General, the son said that the army is impermanent, and the water is impermanent. Just now, the major general was arrogant and arrogant against the enemy who was in a dead position, and he was bound to be defeated. Now, when the enemy sees that he has defeated our arrogant army, his confidence is now extremely inflated. At this time, our army sent heavy troops to trap the enemy, besieged but not attacked, only attacked with bows and crossbows, and the humble duty was expected, and within half a day, the thief army collapsed. ”

Huangfu Song's eyes suddenly flashed, and he laughed and said: "Shiming's words are really like an enlightenment, which makes me suddenly open!" Turning his eyes at Huangfu Jianshou and Yan Zhong, who looked ashamed, he said, "Order you and the two to lead 10,000 troops at the east gate of Quyang, act according to Liu's plan to join the army, and hope that you will wait for the crime to be meritorious." ”

When Huangfu Jianshou and Yan Zhong heard this, they turned their worries into joy, and immediately kowtowed to receive the order and said: "We must live up to the general's trust and make meritorious contributions!" ”

"Go ahead!" Huangfu Song said, and allocated 10,000 people to the two of them. The two led 10,000 soldiers to the east gate of Quyang.

"Where is Captain Cao?" Huangfu Song continued to point.

"The last general!" Cao Cao saw that Huangfu Song had clicked on him, and immediately appeared happily.

Huang Fu Song looked at Cao Cao, couldn't stop nodding, this way, Huang Fu Song's two favorite generals one is Liu Chang, who joined the army, this person is resourceful, and can always hit the point, it is really comparable to the existence of Zhang Zifang, and the other person is the Cao Cao in front of him, and when he talked freely, he felt that this person was full of Tao in his chest, and his views on the art of war were comparable to Sun Wu, and he was really a strange person. "Order Captain Cao to lead 10,000 troops to be stationed at the south gate of Quyang, and also act according to Liu's plan to join the army."

"No!" After speaking, Cao Cao arched his hand to Huangfu Song, and after signaling to Liu Chang, he rode a yellow horse and led the army.

"I am willing to lead the north gate of the soldiers and horses of the headquarters!" Liu Chang didn't wait for Huangfu Song's order to ask for an order.

Huangfu Song looked at Liu Chang and said: "There are only 8,000 soldiers and horses in your headquarters, so this general will allocate another 2,000 people with you, what do you think?" ”

"Thank you, General!" Liu Changzuo thanked him. Then he took Huangfu Song's token and transferred 2,000 people to the north gate of Quyang with 8,000 people from his headquarters.

In this way, a large net was spread towards Quyang City.
