Chapter Ninety-Two: The Beginning of the War
This is a small place located in Jizhou, between Julu City and Guangzong City. Because of the barren land www.biquge.info the people in the vicinity did not reclaim the land. So, in this place, except for the straight roads, there is only wild grass left. Today, it is no longer an obscure place. For from the time the sun rose, more than a hundred thousand people gathered in this place. Because this is the place where the Yellow Turban Army and the official army fought an appointment.
A breeze gently caressed the clouds that obscured the sun's eyes. When the sun was shining on the earth, the 100,000 Yellow Turban Army and the 40,000 officers and soldiers had already set up their positions.
The sunlight quickly raises the temperature of the earth due to the night. Because of the flow of air, the wind gradually became stronger. Thousands of red and black flags were blown by the wind. Although the temperature of the land is starting to rise, it seems that the temperature in this area is still dropping a little.
Huangfu Song rode a fiery red war horse and wore a large Han Zhonglang general armor. Two miles in front of Huangfu Song, there was a crowd of black oppressors. From Huangfu Song's point of view, the black-pressed figure has extended below the horizon. But they have a very striking uniform logo, that is, they all have a yellow cloth wrapped around their heads. That's right, they are the Yellow Turbans. It is also the largest Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains.
Huangfu Song watched quietly for a while, and then gently clamped the horse's belly. The human war horse raised its front hooves and slowly stepped forward. Then, a person who was also wearing the Han system full-body armor followed behind Huangfu Song, and also urged the war horse under his crotch forward. Immediately afterwards, more than 20 guards holding three large flags followed only behind the two. The front of the banner is tattooed with a large character, 'Han'. Behind the big banner of the character 'Han' is a banner with two characters lined up, 'Huangfu'. The last banner is tattooed with the word 'Yuan'.
Today's weather is very good, so the view is very wide. Therefore, not long after Huangfu Song and Yuan Shao urged the horses forward. In the Yellow Turban Army, two miles away, more than 20 people also walked out. After all, the distance is a little far, but the banner of the Yellow Turban Army can still be vaguely seen. It is a pair of flags with the word 'Taiping' and the word 'Zhang'. (Taiping Christianity is the faith of the Yellow Turban Army, so I think the Taiping flag should be hung.) You have a great history, don't be entangled by a flag. )
The speed of the war horse is not fast, but it is not slow either. Not long after, two groups of men who were walking towards the center of the battlefield almost simultaneously stopped at a distance of only twenty paces.
"Sect Leader Zhang, I have admired my name for a long time, and I finally saw it today, it turned out that I also had two eyes and one mouth, but that's it." As the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, Huang Fusong should have been the one who spoke.
One of the more than twenty Yellow Turban troops at the front of the battle laughed, "General Huangfu." Lao Dao heard his disciple say how the general is martial arts, and when he saw it today, he was just an old man who had entered the ground. ”
Zhang Jiao was dressed in a Taoist robe today, and the white beard on his chin was almost on his belly, but he looked like a fairy wind and bones. And when Huangfu Song looked at this person in a Taoist robe, he was sure that this person was Zhang Jiao nine times out of ten. Therefore, there is no waste of anyone's tongue.
"Sect Leader Zhang, you don't honestly become your sect leader, why do you want to rebel?"
"General Huangfu. The sky is dead, and the yellow turban should stand. You don't see the Central Plains where the lives are miserable, the smoke is miasma, and the people are not happy. Lao Dao adheres to the will of heaven, establishes Taiping Taoism, saves the dead and the wounded, and saves the common people in the world, what is the fault. After the old Tao respects you and the door, it is the right way to abandon the darkness and turn to the light as soon as possible. The year is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious. Zhang Jiao said with a serious face.
After hearing this, Huangfu Song laughed a few times, "Zhang Jiao old thief." Don't do the work of robbers under the banner of saints. Where your Yellow Turban Army passes, is there a place of tranquility? All the old man saw was that the people of the Central Plains had abandoned their homes and businesses and were displaced. What's more, the corpses are on the streets, and the bones are gone, and no one cares. And the originally vibrant land of the Central Plains was saved by the old thief, and it was made wild and lifeless. Is this really the right way? Is it really to save the common people? ”
Zhang Jiao stroked his beard and smiled. "You are a mortal, how can you know where the will of heaven is! If not, it will stand after breaking. Only by removing all of you tarsal maggots can we restore peace in the world and change the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment. ”
"Zhang Jiao old thief. Don't talk about saving the common people. You know how ridiculous your face is. Old thief, thou hast gathered the crowd to rebel, and hast caused great chaos in the world, and the people have been in fear all day long, because of disloyalty. What you have done has caused the wrath of the Son of Heaven. He ordered to dig up the grave of your ancestors and abandon the bones of your ancestors. It is for unfilial piety. Such a disloyal and unfilial person, what face does he have to talk nonsense, what face does he have to meet his father. ”
Zhang Jiao laughed angrily when he heard Huangfu Song scolding him for being disloyal and unfilial. "Haha, the old horseman. After the old Taoist respects you at the door, you will toast without eating and drinking. The Son of Heaven should lead by example and be a minister. Now, the Son of Heaven is mediocre, and traitors are in charge. The people complained and wailed, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. Lao Dao came forward because he thought that the people of the world would seek justice. Even if it is against this mediocre Son of Heaven, what then? ”
Huangfu Song took a look, it seems that this old Taoist priest is really stubborn. In that case, the words are not speculative for more than half a sentence. Wait for the old man to put down the rebels, cut off your head, and pay tribute to the innocent and tragic deaths. ”
"Well, that's it. Lao Dao wants to see how tens of thousands of horses and horses in Ru District can resist the righteous army that I asked for the people's life. ”
After saying that, the two groups of men and horses turned around and walked towards their own camps.
"General, why don't you shoot that old thief with a cold arrow?" Yuan Shao asked in a low voice.
"This is a villain's act, and the old man disdains it." Huangfu Song said with a disdainful face.
The same question reached Zhang Jiao's ears, and Zhang Jiao answered his subordinates like this. "The old man wants to let the emperor know what despair is, and he will naturally spare his life."
Huangfu Song and Zhang Jiao both returned to their army safely. Wait a moment. The drums of the offensive sounded almost simultaneously on both sides of the battle. Knock, knock, knock, knock. Almost a thousand war drums were beaten throughout the battlefield. The drums are beating faster and faster, and they are getting more and more excited.
With the sound of two long horns sounding almost simultaneously. The soldiers on both sides shouted trumpets and began to move slowly. Gradually, the pace of slow movement slowly accelerated.
The distance between the front armies of the two sides has become shorter and shorter. Just when there were only four hundred steps left. Suddenly, a short but compact horn sound came from the direction of the officers and soldiers. The soldiers at the front of the attacking army suddenly braked suddenly. From Zhang Jiao's point of view, the front part of the running officers and soldiers suddenly stopped. Then he pressed the shield on his left arm against him at the same time.
Although they are only infantry, they have to suddenly slow down while running, and then raise their shields to defend. And all the soldiers in the front row had a difference of less than a second. More importantly, there was no confusion among the officers and troops who suddenly braked. This shows the strength of the official army. This action of the officers and soldiers also shocked the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side.
In the eyes of the attacking Yellow Turbans. Suddenly a wall of steel appeared in front of them. If you use your own body to hit it, there is no doubt that your own body will collapse first. Therefore, the pace of the Yellow Turban Army, which had been in the front row, could not help but slow down a little, but they were crowded by the dense companions behind them, and continued to run forward.
The tragic war has finally begun.
