034 Han army's first victory

After a few days, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu took several guards to inspect the training of soldiers in the East Gate School. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Guan Yu's phoenix eyes were full of expectations, "From one meal of meat to two meals of meat, step by step, the physical strength and energy of the soldiers have increased a lot, and the amount of training is gradually increasing, second brother, it seems that this matter can be done!" ”

"Second brother, it's still early," Zhang Fei looked at the soldiers who were training, "Two ~ three meals of meat are served every day, and the soldiers' physical strength and energy increase, and they are all as strong as calves in training under a burst of high pressure." ”

"Kill," there was a loud shout of killing, and the soldiers swung their spears forward to stab forward.

"Close," said one of the commanders, and the spear fell back to his waist like lightning.

"Kill," the loud shouts of killing became more and more intense, and the soldiers seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

On the other side, a commander supervised several soldiers, carrying a log as thick as a man on his shoulder, running at a rapid pace, and pulling out his whip from time to time behind him, causing the soldiers to scurry.

"It's not bad, it's better than when I first started training," Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes were full of relief, and his right hand habitually stroked his long beard. "Today's soldiers, one by one, have a calm breath, their eyes are resolute, and their whole bodies are strong."

"Haha, big brother," Zhang Fei said proudly, "If this training is useless, then I might as well buy a piece of tofu and commit suicide by hitting the wall?" Guan Yu smiled silently, full of confidence in the big battle in a month.

At the end of April, the Han army did not win the first battle, and the 40,000 Han troops led by Emperor Zhu Junfu Song were defeated by the Yellow Turban Bocai and retreated. However, the rebel Bocai led hundreds of thousands of troops, ten times the Han army. In the flat Chenliu and Yingchuan counties, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun led most of the remaining main forces to defend Changshe, and then were besieged by Bocai and his army. Due to the small number of Han soldiers and low morale, and the Runan Yellow Turban Army defeated Taishou Zhao Qian in Shaoling, and the Guangyang Yellow Turban Army killed Youzhou Assassin Shi Guo Xun and Taishou Liu Wei, the Yellow Turban Army did not show signs of defeat due to the actions of the Han Dynasty.

At the beginning of May, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who had retreated to Changshe City, were trapped, and the imperial court learned that Cao Cao, the new cavalry commander, led 40,000 newly recruited soldiers and 20,000 elite soldiers of the Northern Army to the south of Changshe to rescue Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, the second general.

At the beginning of the month, outside the city of Changshe, Bo Cai and Peng Tuo, the two Yellow Turban Commanders and Deputy Qu Marshals, suffered heavy losses due to the first day of the attack, and then changed to lead troops outside the city every day to call a battle outside the city to lure Huangfu Song out of the city to fight.

However, there were few soldiers in the city, and there was a huge disparity in numbers, and after Huangfu Song argued the strength of the enemy and me, he decided not to shrink out and let the yellow turban call the battle.

On this day, Huangfu Song learned that there were many rumors in the army, and the soldiers were deeply affected by the rumors, so he immediately summoned all the soldiers in the city to go to the city gate tower to watch, and pointed to the place where the yellow turban camped outside the city and comforted, "The way to use soldiers is to take them by surprise, not to the number of soldiers." ”

After a pause, Huangfu Song couldn't help but look at the generals who were inserted in the wall, and saw that they were hunting in the wind, and couldn't help but lift their spirits, "Now the thieves are camping according to the grass, and it is easy to catch fire due to the wind." If you set fire to it in the dark night, the thieves must be frightened and scattered, and they will send troops to attack, surrounded on all sides, and Tian Dan Shou Jimo will use the fire ox to attack Yan and win the credit. ”

Immediately, the military horses under the command of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun looked at the Yellow Turban Camp outside the city with bright eyes, as if a piece of fat was about to be eaten in their mouths.

Sure enough, a strong southwest wind suddenly rose that night. Huang Fu Song ordered the soldiers to tie up the torches and climb the city wall, first send the elite to sneak out of the city, approaching the Yellow Turban camp, and after succeeding, the city lit the torches, echoing it, Huang Fu Song took advantage of this momentum, and rushed out with drums. The Yellow Turban rebels lacked experience in night warfare, panicked and scattered, and were forced to retreat.

At this time, Cao Cao, the cavalry captain who came from Luoyang with 40,000 soldiers and horses, also appeared outside Changshe City. After a fierce battle, the Yellow Turban was defeated and retreated, and Huangfu Song, Cao Cao, and Zhu Jun joined forces to pursue the victory. Along the way, the Yellow Turban rebels resisted stubbornly, tens of thousands of people were slaughtered, and Huangfu Song was named the Marquis of the capital.

Then, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun took advantage of the victory to suppress the Yellow Turban Army in the Runan and Chen regions, and pursued Bocai and attacked Pengtuo, winning successive victories and pacifying the land of the three counties.

Later, Huangfu Song went to the court and put the credit for breaking the yellow scarf on Zhu Jun. So, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to seal Zhu Jun as the Marquis of Xixiang and move the town to the middle of the thief.

Five miles away from Changshe City, tens of thousands of Han troops, hunting with banners, and their leaders were Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Cao Cao.

On horseback, Huangfu Song's face was full of slaughter, his coat was armored, his arm with arrow sleeves grabbed the reins of the horse, held the sword at his waist in one hand, and said sideways, "Gongwei, Mengde, the yellow turbans of Qing, Henan, Yan, Jing, and Hebei are raging, and the smoke is everywhere, and the people are displaced. ”

"Now, the main army of Jizhou Yellow Turban Zhangjiao has been stopped by Zigan, and is now gradually encroaching, I believe that within two or three months, Jizhou Yellow Turban will be pacified."

"And Yanzhou is organized by Wang Yun to organize the soldiers in the county to resist the family, although it can't win, but it shouldn't be a problem to delay for a few months."

"As for Qingzhou," a look of appreciation flashed across Huangfu Song's resolute face, "I heard that Liu Yan, the assassin of Youzhou, sent volunteers Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to lead more than 1,000 soldiers to Qingzhou, and now they are dragging Qingzhou's 100,000 troops in Jinan State, unable to move." ”

"Zhang Fei, Guan Yu?" On the right, Cao Cao, who was on a horse, wearing a seven-foot military uniform, with a long beard, a heroic demeanor, and a face like black charcoal, asked in surprise.

"Meng De knows these two?" On the side, a dignified-looking and majestic demeanor exuded a strong military aura from his body. But his skin was extremely white, and he had a three-inch black beard under his chin. There is a Confucian righteousness in the majesty, and the two completely different breaths are perfectly combined in one place, which is in the eyes of the people, and he is a Confucian general, who can govern the country and be able to defend the country.

"I've only heard of its name, but I've never seen it," Cao Cao, who looked like black charcoal, replied on horseback. After a pause, Cao Cao said, "When the last general came out of Luoyang, His Majesty learned that the siege of the Yellow Turban in Youzhou could be resolved, and it was mostly up to these two people. Therefore, these two people were promoted to tooth goalkeepers. ”

"Oh," Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun nodded. Some time ago, Gong Jingke, the Taishou of Jinan County, sent a messenger to ask for help, which mentioned the information of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, and that Pingling County was surrounded by most of the Yellow Turbans. At that time, they were also in a stalemate with the main force of Bocai, and they were unable to send troops to help. Who would have thought that just yesterday, Gong Jing, the Taishou of Pingling County, came with good news and bad news, which made Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun bittersweet.

Knowing that Zhang Fei led the headquarters to successfully contain the main force of the well-equipped Yellow Turban, and had not yet fallen into disadvantage, he did not let Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who were famous generals of a generation, say the word "good" in a row.

The bad news is that in about a month, the main force of the Yellow Turbans in the mound city will inevitably meet the defenders trapped in the city. At that time, Pingling County will coexist with the city from the top and bottom of Gong Jing.

"Gongwei, Meng De," Huangfu Song raised his fist, "the two of you will lead 40,000 soldiers and horses to Nanyang Wancheng, and will kill Zhang Mancheng, the Yellow Turban Divine Envoy who guarded Chu Gong in Nanyang, and quell the chaos in Jingzhou." ”

"Yizhen, Jingzhou will be handed over to me and Mengde, as for Yuzhou and Qingzhou, please leave it to you," Zhu Jundao, who had a white face and a perfect fusion of the breath of slaughter with the breath of Confucian books.

"Well," Huangfu shook his head, "Gongwei, take care." ”

"Let's go," Huangfu Song waved his hand, and behind him was commanded by Captain Guo Dian, and Changshi Yan Zhong was urging on the side.

Subsequently, Zhu Jun, who was divided into two routes, was proposed by others, and Zhu Junjuan asked Sun Jian, who was extraordinary-looking and broad-minded, to serve as the Sima of the Zuo Army. After learning of Zhu Jun's recruitment, Sun Jian recruited some soldiers in the Huai and Si areas, plus the young people from the same township who followed him on an errand in Xiapi County, a total of 1,000 elite soldiers. After that, Sun Jian led more than 1,000 soldiers to fight in the north with Zhu Jun.

In mid-May, when attacking the Yellow Turban Army in Wancheng, they were in a difficult situation and had no way out. He took charge of the city alone, risking the arrows and stones, and was the first to climb the city wall. Encouraged by this, his subordinates followed suit, so they captured the outer city of Wancheng and beheaded the divine envoy Zhang Mancheng. Zhu Jun reported all of Sun Jian's deeds to the imperial court, and the imperial court appointed Sun Jian as the Sima of other departments.

On the other side, Huangfu Song, who encircled and suppressed the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou, and Qiao Mao, the assassin of Yuzhou, surrounded and suppressed everywhere to fight against the Yellow Turban rebels, and finally collected more than 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers in Yuzhou.

In Jinan County, Qingzhou, outside Pingling County, the mighty Yellow Turban soldiers have built the first earthen city, in order to prepare to suppress the long-range attack of Pingling County.

When the first earthen city was erected, Qingzhou Marshal Xu He couldn't wait to build the second one, and strive to push the earthen city to the gate of Pingling County as soon as possible.

"Let go of the arrows, you can't let them build the earth city again," a sturdy Qu Chang sergeant "choked the waves", and pulled out the sword at his waist and pointed directly at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were carrying the loess in front of the earth city outside the city.

Immediately, the archers waiting on the front line of the city wall bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were out of range.

"Haha, come on! Shoot me. "Some of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were responsible for supervising the progress of the earth city couldn't help but show a provocative look when they saw that the arrows shot from the head of the city were weakly shot on the earthen wall in front of them, without the slightest inch of progress." Haven't eaten? Like a. ”

Someone next to him said, "I guess I wasn't tired on the woman's belly last night, hahaha." ”

"The shrunken-headed turtle in the city has the ability to come out and fight with your grandfather Lin," outside the city, a yellow turban soldier with an obscene appearance shouted and scolded with his hands on his waist.
