Chapter 137: The Yellow Turban Bombs the Camp
Ye Chen came to relieve the siege of Jixian County, the purpose of which was to allow Guo Xun to reorganize Youzhou, and then organize forces to eliminate the yellow turbans in Youzhou, so that Youzhou could be stabilized as soon as possible.
Since he is not here to kill the enemy, he does not seek to annihilate how many yellow turbans, then it is easy to do, just let the yellow turbans collapse on their own, as for how much harm these scattered yellow scarves will become, Ye Chen can't care about it.
"Okay, look for an opportunity to storm the Yellow Turban Camp tomorrow." After deciding down, Ye Chen asked the soldiers of the escort battalion to go and have a good rest.
Wu Kang seemed to see the scene of the yellow turban being shattered, so he started to act last night, he quietly organized more than 10,000 elites, plus the remaining hundreds of elites yesterday, he let these more than 10,000 people be equipped with the weapons and armor collected from the battlefield yesterday.
He is planning for the worst, if he really can't hold on, then he will flee to Jizhou with more than 10,000 people to find Zhang Jiao.
I have to say that Wu Kang is a smart person, but it is not difficult to see that the Yellow Turban at this time is already unsustainable, if there is food, it can continue to besiege, but the Yellow Turban's food was originally robbed, and now the city cannot be broken, and it is very difficult to grab food.
So in this case, the yellow scarf will still collapse in the end, and Wu Kang also saw this, so he began to prepare.
Early the next morning, Ye Chen took a few people to observe the Yellow Turban Camp and found that they were just gathered together, there was no movement, and they had no intention of continuing to attack the city.
Of course Ye Chen can't be with them here, there are bigger things for him to do, calculate the time, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty should have issued an edict at this time, asking all localities to start suppressing the Yellow Turban, at this time it is already legal to lead troops to run around, Ye Chen will definitely go to the Central Plains to meet the heroes and start to appear in front of the world.
"If it doesn't work, let's have another night attack, after all, fighting at night is more beneficial to us." Ye Chen thought to himself.
When he went out in the morning and there was no result, Ye Chen went back, and asked the scout to continue to observe, and report any movement at any time.
In the afternoon, Ye Chen thought that the Yellow Turban would not attack, but the scout came to report that the Yellow Turban camp began to move, and there were signs of continuing to attack the city.
As soon as Ye Chen heard this, he immediately led the escort battalion to rush over, no matter whether they were going to attack the city or not, as long as they moved, then Ye Chen would have a chance.
The Yellow Turbans are indeed going to attack the city, because if they don't attack everyone and stay in the camp, the pessimism will continue to spread, and the Yellow Turbans will collapse on their own without waiting for the food to run out.
Wu Kang saw this situation, so he ordered to continue attacking the city, and he hid with about 10,000 strong men and fled once the situation was not good.
The Yellow Turbans began to attack the city again, it was still the same old way, there was no distinction between priority and priority, there were many of them, and then they rushed up together and killed the enemy with people.
This method was still very useful a day ago, but at this time, more than 10,000 people had been organized in the city, and with a great boost in morale, it was almost impossible to capture the city, Wu Kang also knew this situation, but he had no other choice.
The Yellow Turban began to attack the city, Ye Chen was very happy, although the Yellow Turban also sent more than 20,000 people to defend him, but more than 20,000 ordinary Yellow Turbans, still the Yellow Turbans who did not have much morale, could break through their defenses at any time.
An hour later, Ye Chen was still in place, and he didn't start the attack, he was not in a hurry, because although the Yellow Turban attack was fierce, Ye Chen saw that the city was still stable, and it didn't look like it was about to be breached.
"Ready!" Ye Chen said a word to a few people around him, and then slowly passed it down, ordering everyone to get ready.
After a while, after everyone was ready, Ye Chen began to slowly instigate the war horse under his crotch, and the whole team began to move.
The horses got faster and faster, and finally began to charge.
After "shooting" a few hundred meters closer to the team that intercepted them, Ye Chen ordered the troops to start shooting on horseback.
Thousands of arrows rained down in the air and fell on the already sluggish Yellow Turban. They had never seen an arrow array at all, and when they attacked the city before, there were few bows and arrows in the city, and the lethality was really limited, but this time it was like rain.
"Ahh
There was a scream, and after a burst of arrows, three or four thousand people were killed and wounded, and there would be so many dead and wounded because the yellow turban was completely dumbfounded, and there was no command, and there was no seeming, no dodging, so to speak, standing in place and letting the escort battalion shoot.
"Shooting" another round of arrow rain formed.
After this round of arrows, there is basically no chance to shoot arrows, because the escort battalion will almost kill in front of the Yellow Turbans.
"Run."
"Whew, that's terrible."
......
Without waiting for the escort battalion to charge the formation, the Yellow Turbans had already scattered and ran away, they were not the elite of the Yellow Turbans, most of them were just peasants who had been coerced, where had they seen such a formation, they had long been frightened and scattered, and they ran away without waiting for the cavalry to approach.
It's no wonder they are like this, they were afraid when they saw the cavalry, yesterday's scene has left a deep fear in their hearts, and today they will see such a terrible arrow array, how can this make them not afraid.
Since they ran away, Ye Chen would not pursue, their target this time was the Yellow Turban Camp, burning their food and tents, it was still early February, there were no tents, and they would not last long in the wild.
"Broken"
Just used the overlord halberd to pick up a few horizontal logs outside the camp, Tai Shici and Guan Yu also used the weapons in their hands to break through the obstacles, and the escort battalion successfully entered the camp.
Wu Kang has been paying attention to this cavalry, he knows that if he escapes and is discovered by this cavalry, then if he is chased and killed, he will not be able to escape, so he wants to lure this cavalry out and let him fall into the ocean of ordinary yellow turbans, although these yellow scarves can't give them much damage, they can hinder them from pursuing him, and he doesn't even know that he has fled.
Wu Kang saw that the cavalry began to attack, so he sent a large number of ordinary yellow turbans to surround them, and tens of thousands of yellow turbans thought that they could cause them a lot of trouble, at least he could take advantage of the chaos to escape.
Wu Kang has already arranged it, and the more than 10,000 selected elites have not played.
Ye Chen didn't know so much, as long as he killed this group of yellow scarves, as for their life and death, it was no longer up to him.
Ye Chen commanded the cavalry to assault all the time, and soon assaulted the interior of the Yellow Turban Battalion, at this time, many Yellow Turbans came to stop it, but they still had a deep fear of this cavalry in their hearts, so they didn't dare to step forward too much.
Due to the relatively small space in the camp, the front of the guard battalion was killing the enemy, and the back was throwing bows and arrows into the distance, which also gave the Yellow Turban a lot of damage, which made the Yellow Turban's heart have a great shadow.
"Ignition." Ye Chen was in the front and ordered the soldiers behind to start igniting, they had already killed in the middle of the camp, and it was just right to light the fire here.
Soon the fire was lit, Ye Chen had a lot of rockets lit, shot out, lit more tents and food, and when the fire was not completely burned, Ye Chen began to rush out in the other direction, in order to prevent the yellow turban from fighting the fire, Ye Chen also ordered to shoot a few waves of arrows around the fire, and then retreated.
When Ye Chen went out, after arriving at the periphery, the entire Yellow Turban bombed the camp.
"Eh, why did the yellow turban blow up the camp." Ye Chen asked Tai Shi Ci and Guan Yu next to him suspiciously, and at this time, they were watching from a short distance with the escort camp.
Tai Shici and Guan Yu shook their heads and said they didn't know.
The reason why the Yellow Turbans will blow up the camp is actually very simple, because these Yellow Turbans were in the middle of the camp when Ye Chen and them had not yet started to ignite the fire, and when Ye Chen killed in, Wu Kang ordered all the ordinary Yellow Turbans to block it, and he quietly slipped out with the backbone and elite soldiers, and when the fire started, they had already retreated.
That is, at this time, there was no command, the fire burned, no one went to extinguish the fire, and the fire naturally got bigger and bigger.
The Yellow Turbans besieging the city also stopped, and they also ran away.
The entire Yellow Turban camp was in chaos, and after a while, the Yellow Turbans began to scatter and run away, of course Ye Chen did not chase and kill, although he could hunt down and kill a lot of Yellow Turbans, but this was not what Ye Chen wanted to manage, so leave it to those officials to take care of it.
In this messy scene, Ye Chen certainly couldn't see that more than 10,000 yellow scarves had secretly run away, this was not important to Ye Chen, the important thing was that the crisis here had passed.
