Chapter 47: Purgatory on Earth

In Yan County, Zhang Liao and others waited for the Han army led by Liu Jin for more than an hour, and they really lived like a year.

Just when the young and vigorous Zhang Liao was about to hold back, a red meteor pierced the sky. This was Liu Jin's signal, and Zhang Liao immediately roared: "Brothers, my senior brother's Wang Shi is here, kill me with me."

As he spoke, Zhang Liao took the lead in wrapping the green dragon halberd with linen on his back and taking it into his hand, ripped off the linen cloth on the head of the halberd, and charged in the direction of the east gate with the green dragon halberd.

Although Zhang Liao and others left the war horse in order to hide their tracks, these people were originally rangers in the rivers and lakes, and their efforts were much better than that of horses. In addition, the Yellow Turban Army did not set up a patrol team at all along the way, so Zhang Liao and the others acted extremely quickly.

At the east gate of Yan County, 1,500 Yellow Turban troops were already in battle. Although the city has become a purgatory, the Yellow Turban Army stationed at each gate is still loyal to their duties, and as soon as they saw a group of men and horses coming straight to the east gate, the soldiers on duty at the head of the city quickly sounded the gong to warn.

"Brothers, kill these thieves and welcome the governor into the city." Zhang Liao let out a tiger roar, and the green dragon halberd swept across the vertical split, and there was no enemy at all, and he was the first to kill in the crowd of the Yellow Turban Army.

The remaining 400 or so rangers are also seasoned men, they are skilled in martial arts, and their methods are fierce, and they are not merciless in killing these Yellow Turban Army, which is mainly old and weak, women and children.

The first to kill under the city gate was still Zhang Liao, and along the road, there were more than 200 Yellow Turban troops who fell under the Qinglong halberd. Zhang Liao did not have the slightest mercy, and after killing the last Yellow Turban Hundred General who stopped in front of him with a halberd, he led several rangers to start cutting down the lock.

With a squeaky sound that made the teeth sour, the wooden city gate of Yan County was quickly opened. Liu Jin, who had been waiting for a long time, was about to gallop on his horse, when he suddenly heard Zhang Liao say sadly: "Senior brother, these yellow turban thieves are too vicious, they have plundered in the city and killed the people of Dawn, and now Yan County has become a ghost town, woo woo."

Glancing at the crying Zhang Liao, Liu Jin secretly said in his heart: "When I arrived, the young man's heart had not yet reached the level of a general who would not be shocked in the future."

"Senior brother get on the horse, everyone will kill with me, and save the people of Yan County!!". Liu Jin roared wildly, and a thousand elite horsemen smashed into the gate of the black hole like a whirlwind.

Knowing that the city gate was lost, Luo Shi, the Yellow Turban guard of Yan County, hurriedly gathered three thousand Yellow Turban troops with the intention of recapturing the city gate, but he didn't want to take a few steps before he ran into the Han army led by Liu Jin. This is really the enemy's eyes are very red when they meet, Liu Jin knew as soon as he saw the banner standing in the Yellow Turban Army that this force was the golden main force led by the bandit leader.

At that moment, Liu Jin yelled: "Let go of the gun."

In an instant, a thousand three-foot-long sharp throwing spears shot out, and in the blink of an eye, four or five hundred Yellow Turban soldiers were shot over.

Although the range of the throwing gun is limited, it also has its advantages. That is, heavy, powerful, and sharper than bows and crossbows. Only the person who is shot by it is basically the end of the body, and because the throwing gun carries a certain amount of rotation when thrown, it is basically rare for the person who is shot to survive.

This is the reason why Liu Jin chose to equip his troops with throwing guns on a large scale, compared to bows and arrows that are not easy to master the accuracy of shooting on horses, throwing guns do not have this requirement.

Just imagine, when the overwhelming throwing guns are fired, not to mention the psychological pressure generated by the black and oppressive throwing guns falling from the sky, it is the powerful lethality brought by this weapon, in addition to the troops equipped with iron shields can resist, and the troops can resist the extremely powerful throwing guns head-on?

The answer is definitely no! After three rounds of shooting, there were less than 1,500 Yellow Turbans still standing.

Liu Jin roared: "Hyero rushed up and beheaded the thief for me."

The battle has reached this point, and there is basically no suspense anymore.

In the face of the cavalry charging at high speed, even if it has a complete military formation, it is difficult for the Yellow Turban Army to resist, not to mention that the Yellow Turban Army has been completely devoid of a formation of 3,000 throwing guns, and its morale is low.

With Liu Jing's tiger roar, Hierro took the lead and brandished his mace to kill the Han army's cavalry formation. Don't look at Hierro's usual honest expression, but on the battlefield, this honest Hun man is definitely a veritable human killer.

Looking at Hiero like a surfboard breaking through huge waves, Luo Shi was timid. Frightened, Luo Shi turned around and ran as soon as he pulled the reins, the speed was so fast! The Yellow Turbans who watched were dumbfounded.

Everyone looked at it, Qu Shuai had run away, why did we stay here? One by one, they immediately spread their big feet and ran away desperately, I really hated my parents for giving me two legs.

But they forgot that the cavalry on the horses that followed behind them was not a star and a half faster than they were at the start.

Liu Jin and the others followed the fleeing Yellow Turban infantry, and one by one they raised the three-edged iron spears in their hands like toads, one by one.

Since entering the city, there has been a ruined image as far as the eye can see. Not only that, but there are broken door panels everywhere, which is the home of the person who was forced to break through the door by the Yellow Turban Army.

Rotting corpses were scattered across most of the city, all of them civilians killed by the Yellow Turbans. Judging from the degree of dense corpses, Liu Jin estimated that he was only afraid of Yan County, which has a population of more than 50,000, and he was afraid that there were no more than 10,000 people still alive at this time.

How does this make Liu Jin not angry? What made Liu Jin even more angry was not limited to this, several Yellow Turban Army barracks and garrisons along the way were all filled with women's screams, and you didn't need to look at Liu Jin to know that it must be the Yellow Turban Army that was committing violence.

In Liu Jin's philosophy, the reason why people are called people is not just because they walk upright and can make fires. It is also because people are courteous, righteous and honest, loyal and filial, and have the least human nature.

But as far as the eye can see, the entire Yan County is like a ghost city, a purgatory existence in the world, which makes Liu Jin, who has always been concerned about protecting his family and the country, and protecting the people of Limin, not be angry.

Therefore, Liu Jin issued an order, and all the Yellow Turban Army in Yan County were slaughtered, vowing to avenge the people of the entire Yan County. This is not to buy people's hearts, but the wish of 1,500 Han soldiers and rangers, including Liu Jin.

The night was still deep, and the Yellow Turban Army, which had entered Yan County as conquerors a few days ago, was already panicking like a lost dog at this time, and was terrified all day long.

Under the iron hooves of the Han army, the entire Yellow Turban Army in Yan County, including the thief Shouluo City, except for a few Yellow Turban Army who threw away their turbans and weapons in advance, most of the Han troops who were not angry were slaughtered, and more than 8,000 people died.

As the sun set, Liu Jin began to gather his army. Except for a few of the 1,500 Han soldiers who had been killed and lightly wounded, most of the 1,500 Han soldiers still had the excitement of the massacre.

Driving the horse forward, Liu Jin said angrily: "Brothers, you are the bravest sons of my Han Dynasty, facing the enemy who has lost his humanity, what should we do? ”。

"Kill, kill, kill," more than a thousand people all shouted angrily.

"That's right, but General Ben has a word that I hope you brothers will keep in mind, no matter who you are, as long as you lose the most basic humanity, even if it is any of you, General Ben will kill them mercilessly. Guys, do you remember?" Liu Jin roared hoarsely.

The Han army, of more than a thousand people, was silent, and they knew that this was the Lord admonishing themselves.

"Remember?" Liu Jin added again.

"Obey the general's order" The earth-shattering cry filled the huge Yan County, and the city that was still like a ghost domain broke out again.

The remaining nearly 10,000 Yan County people slowly walked out of their hiding places in terror and followed the sound to the place where the Han army gathered.

As far as the eye could see, a blood-red color came into view. This is not only the blood stains on the Han army's body, but also the dazzling red flag and red armor.

A middle-aged man about forty years old boldly stepped forward, hugged his fist and saluted Liu Jin on the red charcoal fire dragon horse, and cried and said: "Han Hao, the governor of Xiaguan Yan County, has seen General Zhonglang, and it is not good for Xia Guan to protect the people, and I hope that the general will severely punish him." He had already seen the name 'Ping Yan Zhonglang General' written on Liu Jin's banner, so Han Hao asked for sin.

When Liu Jin heard this, his eyes slowly changed, staring at the self-proclaimed Yan County Lieutenant, the murderous intent in his eyes skyrocketed, and he shouted angrily: "Er is the Captain of a county, in charge of the soldiers of a county, why did you let the Yellow Turban thieves enter the city to cause chaos and cause trouble to the people of Limin, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”。

Unexpectedly, this Han Hao retorted and said: "Although the lower official is the lieutenant of Yan County, the county official is a relative of Zhao Zhong, the regular servant, and he seized the salaries and ordnance of the county soldiers under the subordinate subordinates, so that there are no enemy soldiers in the army, and there is no military morale at all." Although he has the intention to kill the thief, he has no power to return to heaven."

When Liu Jin heard this, he was silent. After a long time, he said: "In this case, as the parent official of Yan County, you can gather the people to rebuild their homes!" ”。

When Han Hao heard this, he hesitated for a long time, and then said: "General, now that there are no soldiers to guard Yan County, what if the thief returns and there are no soldiers to guard him?" Therefore, the lower official asked the general to temporarily garrison Yan County to protect the people on this side!! (To be continued)
