The fall of Dong'e County again shocked the entire Dongjun County. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info you must know that the depth of the city of Dong'e City is second only to Puyang City in the entire East County. Moreover, the defenders in the city are more than 3,000 people who have moved from Chen Liu to fight in Dongjun, and they have experienced dozens of battles with the Yellow Turban Army, and their combat effectiveness is definitely more than the more than 4,000 county soldiers in Puyang City who have been in battle for a long time. And what made Qiao Mao even more frightened was that the news he got from the scout detectives was that it was only the Yellow Turban Army of Bian Xibu who besieged Dong'e City this time, and the main force of the Yellow Turban Army of Dongjun only sent part of the old and weak to participate in the battle, and the real main force was not dispatched at all!

Even Dong'a, which was guarded by Fan Xiang, was easily captured by Bian Xi, so can Puyang still withstand the double siege of Bian Xi and Yu Poison?

Qiao Mao almost immediately made the decision to evacuate Puyang after receiving the news, but was stopped by the staff of his county guard and the generals of the garrison.

For Qiao Mao, even if he loses Puyang, he will be punished by the court at most, but as long as he has his life, he will rely on the family's financial resources and the power of the old man Qiao Xuan, and there will be a comeback after all.

But for those county guard house staff and garrison generals, Puyang is their hometown and a treasure they need to defend to the death, and they must not be so easily let the Yellow Turban rebels burn and plunder. At this time, if Qiao Mao escapes, panic will spread in Puyang City, and the people's hearts and military morale will be unstable at that time, how can they resist the vast Yellow Turban Army?

In order to dispel Qiao Mao's idea of abandoning the city and fleeing, these people gathered most of their private soldiers overnight, and recruited some young and strong people from the city who wanted to defend Puyang, and put together a garrison of more than 6,000 people.

At the same time, the staff persuaded Qiao Mao one after another, and the reason why Dong'a would lose it was because on the night of Wang Du's rebellion, the people in the city had already left in order to escape the war, and there was no reinforcement from the outside and no help from the people inside, and finally it was difficult for the enemy to besiege the thief army. But there were still hundreds of thousands of people and more than 10,000 defenders in Puyang City. As long as everyone is united, with the depth of Puyang City, they will be able to block the attack of the Yellow Turban Army.

Persuaded by these staff and generals to use both soft and hard methods, Qiao Mao was forced to stay in Puyang City this time.

But Qiao Mao didn't know it, just like Yu Poison would not bother to destroy Fan Xiang for Bian Xi in vain, Bian Xi would not be stupid to spend military power at this time to take down the difficult Puyang City for Yu Poison. After distributing the spoils of the equipment and weapons obtained from the strangulation of Fan Xiang, Bian Xi only rested in Dong'e for three days, then abandoned Dong'e, an empty city without oil and water, and began to turn around and march towards Chenliu with more than 20,000 Yellow Turban troops from his headquarters.

The news of the annihilation of the entire army of Fan Xiang and the westward march of tens of thousands of Bian Xi's army into Chenliu was transmitted to Chenliu City by the scouts at the same time.

At this time, Wu Yi was on the general platform in the military camp in the east of the city, watching Xu Shu drill the military formation of the more than 2,000 homeless volunteers who had been screened out.

Xu Shu's growth in the past half a year is too fast, originally he was just a ranger with good swordsmanship, but after being rescued by Wu Yi, he studied the art of war hard and participated in several battles with Taiping Dao. Although for the time being, he is not as good as himself when he took refuge in Xinye Liu Bei in history, but through these dozen large and small battles, Xu Shu has a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the art of war and the use of battle formations. Now, after more than ten days of training, Xu Shu has 200 hundred soldiers as the backbone, and he can even put up a decent simple military formation with more than 2,000 homeless volunteers.

Suddenly, several knights dressed in the Wu family's guard costumes were stopped at the gate of the camp, and Xu Shu followed the military order of the sage Zhou Yafu and did not allow anyone to force their way into the barracks without his permission.

Xu Shu asked the soldiers to continue to practice the changes in the military formation, but he and Wu Yi walked quickly to the entrance of the camp to meet the knights.

"What's going on?" Wu Yi knew that at this time, the family sent people to the camp to look for him, and something big had definitely happened.

One of them stepped forward and arched his hand to Wu Yi and Xu Shu: "The head of the family asked us to hurry up and inform the young master that the more than 3,000 soldiers who rescued the Lord Fan Xiang from Dongjun were surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army in Dong'e County. And the group of Yellow Turban troops that attacked and destroyed Lord Fan Xiang has already diverted to our Chenliu County, and according to their marching speed, if nothing happens, they will be able to enter the territory of Chenliu within two or three days at the latest. ”

Wu Yi was silent, although he had expected that sooner or later the Yellow Turban Army would come to Chen Liu, he never thought that the more than 3,000 people led by Fan Xiang would be wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army. Speaking of which, although the more than 2,000 rebel troops he formed have been trained for nearly half a month, there is still a big gap compared to the more than 3,000 well-equipped Chen Liujun soldiers under the command of Fan Xiang. Now that even the more than 3,000 people in Lian Fan Xiang have been swallowed by the Yellow Turban Army, can their more than 2,000 recruits really be able to resist the offensive of the Yellow Turban Army?

After a long time, Wu Yi took a deep breath and asked the knights who had arrived to return home to inform his father that he had learned the news. Looking at their backs as they swept away, Wu Yi pulled Xu Shu into the big tent of the Chinese army, spread out the topographic map of Chenliu drawn by the family, and discussed with Xu Shu the strategy against the enemy.

"Although the Yellow Turban Army is mostly composed of people who have been bewitched by Zhang Jiao, its numbers occupy an absolute advantage. If we confront head-on with our little strength alone, I am afraid that we will also follow in the footsteps of the future. "Xu Shu is in charge of training more than 2,000 soldiers, so he knows better how weak his own strength is, and when the morale of the thousands of county soldiers in the Yellow Turban Army is rising, there is almost no chance of victory in a head-to-head battle.

Wu Yi looked at the topographic map and asked unwillingly, "Isn't there any other way?" Perhaps we can find their place and set up an ambush to ambush them? ”

Xu Shu shook his head: "There is nothing dangerous in Chenliu County, even if there are mountains and forests, it is not a necessary place for the Yellow Turban Army to attack the cities in the county, the lord can't expect the generals of the Yellow Turban Army to put a good road and run to the ambush circle of the mountains and forests we set up, right?" The goal of the Yellow Turban Army is obvious, which is to break through the city, burn, kill and loot. In such a situation, it is difficult to even lure the enemy, and the success of the ambush is extremely low. ”

"We must not give them the opportunity to burn, kill and loot, this is the biggest purpose of my formation of this rebel army. If we are trapped in Chen Liucheng and watch them act recklessly in other counties in the county, what is the point of me forming this rebel army? Wu Yi didn't want to just sit in Chen Liucheng and wait for reinforcements from the imperial court, and he didn't want to fear the enemy like a tiger without a battle. This Yellow Turban Army, which invaded Chenliu, was nothing compared to the future princes of all walks of life. If you can't even clean up this little Yellow Turban Army, how can you compete with those strong princes in the future?

"What is the plan?" Xu Shu knew that although his lord had just reached the crown, he was smart since he was a child and learned from the great Confucians of the world, and he might have a better strategy than himself at this time.

Wu Yi thought for a long time, and suddenly thought of something: "Yuan Zhi, did the person who just sent the message say that the Yellow Turban Army that attacked Chenliu County was the group that annihilated Fan Xiang's department?" ”

Xu Shu nodded: "That's right, he did say so." ”

Wu Yi breathed a long sigh of relief: "Then we have hope, I have a guess, if my guess is correct, then we may have a chance to win or lose." ”
