Chapter 13: The Destruction of the City

The scouts came to report, and sure enough, the Yellow Turban Army chased them out, although Li Yuan did not fall behind, but once he was attacked, he would definitely be involved in the war.

"Youcao, the enemy will be killed in a while, you can only resist a little with the brothers, but don't rush forward." You Cao nodded solemnly and hurriedly.

Pei Yuanshao saw the panicked officers and soldiers, smiled, and ordered the brothers to attack. He also raised a big knife to kill, and there was no enemy under his command.

Li Yuan hurriedly resisted for a moment, and then fled. Pei Yuanshao also forgot to be tempted, seeing that the officers and soldiers were so useless, he rushed directly into the enemy army and fought.

At this time, Zhou Cang and Gao Sheng led their troops to kill, and the coalition army panicked even more and fled quickly.

More than 100,000 people and horses, chasing me on the plain, Li Yuan had already broken through the encirclement and began to assemble in Pingxiang County in several resistances.

After a while, the coalition forces in the back gradually increased, most of them were wrapped in yellow scarves, and their weapons were replaced with farm tools, sticks, etc.

Li Yuan was mixed in, waiting for the defeated army of the Yellow Turban to come.

Sure enough, after waiting for an hour, the Yellow Turban Army in the rear who cried for their father and mother, and Li Yuan and others also began to run, but the speed was a little slower.

The two real and fake Yellow Turban troops quickly mixed together, and after some observation, they drilled into the county seat.

Zhang Bao was still angry and hated, and the sect member led the army to come and began to attack the city.

Half an hour after the siege began, there was a sudden scene of fighting each other on the city wall, and he knew that the officers and soldiers had mixed in, so he hurriedly commanded the army and horses to kill the officers and soldiers.

But there was no distinction between friend and foe, and there were soon tragic casualties.

There was a gap in the city defenses, and the enemy kept coming up, and the city gates were opened, and thousands of soldiers and horses were killed, and its situation was in danger.

In desperation, he could only escape from the east gate under the escort of Zhou Cang and others.

When the Yellow Turban Army saw that the general of the land had left them, they no longer fell in love with the war, and there were people who fled in a rout, like sparks of fire, and a large area "burned".

The Yellow Turban Army was originally a peasant, dragging families and families, helping the old and the young, and many of them sacrificed heroically to protect their families.

Li Yuan stood at the head of the city, witnessing this scene, he was really sad, and shouted: "Surrender and don't kill!" ”

Dian Wei and others also shouted with him: "Surrender and don't kill." ”

More and more people joined, and the sound was like the sound of gold, and the Yellow Turbans threw their clubs, abandoned their hoes, and surrendered on their knees.

But the red-eyed coalition army, whether it surrenders or not, continues to fight, the surrendered Yellow Turban Army, seeing that if they don't surrender, they will die, and if they surrender, they will die, so it is better to fight, maybe there is still life.

was so angry that Li Yuan scolded, but the scolding was drowned out by the screams.

This battle was fought in the dark, until dark, and everyone was changed into "new clothes" by the blood of the enemy and us.

The coalition suffered 20,000 casualties, and the Yellow Turbans lost more than 50,000, including too many helpless men.

Li Yuan leaned against the battlements and fell asleep tiredly.

Not to mention him, most people are exhausted.

Suddenly, someone came to report and was stopped by Dian Wei, only to hear the little soldier say: "Second master, You Touer was stopped." ”

Dian Wei instructed the brothers to protect the eldest brother, and he went with the halberd, and he went down the city, almost stepping on the corpse.

Many people around him were rummaging around with torches, and one soldier lifted a woman open, only to find the baby in his arms and scream for bad luck.

Turning around, I saw the two sides of the confrontation.

You Cao was ordered to search for gold and silver treasures, most of which were copper coins, but unexpectedly found a jar of jewelry in a private house, and unexpectedly found at the same time, so they confronted each other.

After several disputes, he was afraid of attracting more people, so he sent someone to inform Li Yuan.

Dian Wei strode over, and the creeps behind him almost trotted over.

Dian Wei straightened up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

You Cao pointed to the jewels scattered not far away, and said, "We found this first, but they had to rob it because of the large number of people." ”

As soon as Dian Wei arrived, the people on the other side were afraid, and they had all seen this person exert great power on the battlefield, and there were not only many people's blood under his hands. But money is moving, and they are also fighting for reason.

Dian Wei Ke didn't care so much, strode to the jewels, put the scattered jewels into the altar, and finally grabbed the altar.

The enemy army had a small soldier who was not afraid of death, came up to fight, and was hacked to death by Dian Wei with a halberd, which frightened the others and did not dare to enter again.

You Cao sneered a few times and went out with Dian Wei.

This is just a small episode, there are fights in every corner of the city, the sect members will not care, and they can't care about these, everyone is born and died, and there is not even any welfare, saying that they will continue to fight with you.

When Li Yuan woke up, it was already dawn, and You Cao was leading the brothers to clean up the corpses in the city at this time. He stood up and looked at it, and the corpses were pulled out one by one, and the adults, children, and the elderly were miserable.

He was in a peaceful era, and he really couldn't stand this, so he led Dian Wei out of the county seat and rode a horse to relax.

But after a few miles, there were still many corpses in sight, and they were very depressed.

There were two things that caught his attention, one of course, was a jar of jewels that You Cao had found. There was another thing that made him feel a little emotional, it turned out that Guan Yu was ambushing Zhang Bao halfway, although Zhang Bao ran away, but beheaded his general Gao Sheng.

The sect member was overjoyed, wrote down the merits, and he reported it to the court together on a day and rewarded it again.

In this way, for three days, the sect members left soldiers and horses to garrison the county seat, and the rest of the men and horses went to Julu County with him to join Lu Zhi.

Liu Bei's four brothers became more and more prestigious, and they were joined by many snobbers, and their soldiers and horses reached 5,000, which was already a big force in the coalition army.

Lu Zhi knew the cause and effect, and immediately asked for credit for Liu Bei, and Liu Bei was often smiling these days.

The time entered June, and in the past two months, no matter who it was, it was uncomfortable, the weather was hot and sultry, and several sieges had little effect, and at night they had to beware of Zhang Jiao stealing the camp.

And in Nanyang, Taishou Qin Jie beheaded Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban in Nanyang.

Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Cao Cao and others also broke Peng Tuo in Xihua, and then marched into Wancheng, because Qin Jie slaughtered the Yellow Turban and surrendered the army, and the rebellion resumed. The Yellow Turban elected Zhao Hong as the leader, and occupied Wancheng with the remaining 100,000 Yellow Turbans.

In Xihe County, Bingzhou, Chen De had already repelled the Yellow Turbans and surrendered tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans, which shocked Hebei for a while.

At this time, Hebei Julu, under the design of Lu Zhi, finally broke Zhang Jiao, and Zhang Jiao had to lead the army to withdraw to Guangzong.

In Guangzong, Lu Zhi built blockades, dug trenches, made ladders, etc., and the situation was very good, but the imperial court sent Xiaohuangmen to inspect the military situation and urge the siege of the city to capture Zhang Jiao.

Lu Zhi was very dissatisfied with his fingers, and his subordinates advised him to bribe Zuo Feng, but of course he refused, if he agreed, where did he have righteousness?

Li Yuan originally wanted to take this opportunity to win over Xiaohuangmen Zuofeng, but he was afraid of being gossiped, so he had to give up.
