"Who is the vanguard of the Han army?"

Zhang Qiang's heart jumped and he asked. Several other astute-minded people also pricked up their ears, wanting to hear if the vanguard officer of the Han Army, who was described as "crazy", was a certain "acquaintance"?

"Unknown ......"

"Isn't it surnamed Sun?"

Dian Wei suddenly asked.

At this moment, almost everyone present had their ears pricked up. There is no way, a certain person with the surname "Sun", in the past battles, left a deep impression on the Tianping Army!

"Not ......"

Guo Damu thought for a while and said uncertainly:

"Like...... That pioneer surname Liu? ”

"Liu?"

Hearing this answer, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that I kept thinking in my mind, during the Three Kingdoms, was there any fierce general surnamed Liu?

――It's not Liu Bei, right?

There's a reason why he thinks that. After all, in the Three Kingdoms when there were many talents, although the person surnamed Liu was like a car bucket, the most well-known was only the ancestor of Shu Han, Emperor Zhaolie Liu Bei.

Zhang Mad continued to ask a few words. Helplessly, this Guo Damu actually didn't really fight with the Han army at all, and was coerced by the defeated Yellow Turban soldiers and retreated all the way. He really couldn't say anything more about the specific details of the Han army's battle.

Let Guo Damu retreat and rest, arrogantly glanced at the generals sitting there, and said loudly:

"Everyone! Get ready to meet the enemy! ”

"No!"

Looking at the confident appearance of his subordinates, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and ambition in his arrogant heart.

- Huangfu Song, come on!

-- I want to see the true strength of you, the "first hero of the pacification of the Yellow Turban"!

Originally, in the arrogant expectation, Bu Jishuai's defeated army should have retreated all the way to Dong'a City. In order to contain the defeated soldiers, he specially ordered Master Tai to prepare a meal that could feed a thousand people, and also sorted out a bunk in Dong'e City that could accommodate 2,000 people.

However, until the cavalry of the Han army arrived at the city to spy on them, the defeated soldiers collected by the Tianping army were only more than 300 people. More than 100 of them were brought by Guo Damu.

"The Han army is really fast!"

Looking at the Han army's leading cavalry, which was five hundred steps away from the city wall, he said to Shen Fu who was guarding the city.

"Unexpectedly, Bu Jishuai was defeated so miserably......"

The Han army, the leader of the city, is not an honest and good child. Although they did not dare to rush to the city and attack it. But from the east of the city to the west of the city, these guys, who are more annoying than flies, kept shouting at the Yellow Turban soldiers on the head of the city, preaching the great achievements of the Han army.

No, it's just that in just half an hour, the Tianping army in the whole city knows that Bu Jishuai in Cangting has been exhausted. Even Bu Jishuai himself was captured alive by the fierce generals of the Han army!

“…… Capture and behead seventeen leaders above the small marshal......"

“…… Behead 30,000 levels! ”

Listening to the constant noise coming from afar, even Shen Fu, who had always been calm, couldn't bear it anymore.

"My lord, why don't you send Le Baichang to lead the cavalry team and drive it away?"

Zhang Mad patted Shen Fu on the shoulder and said:

"Zhongrong doesn't have to be upset, I have my own plans."

As he spoke, he smiled bitterly in his heart.

-- The plan hasn't changed so fast!

Just yesterday, Zhang Mad also planned to rely on the city of Dong'e County to contain some defeated soldiers of Bu Ji's army and fight with the vanguard of the Han army. Only by frustrating the spirit of the Han army can he lead the army back with peace of mind.

As a result, news just came from the Guanhai Department in the east today, but it was said that the Gucheng County where the Tianping Army had passed through before had actually rioted against the hidden Taiping Dao believers under the deterrence of the Guanhai army's oppression!

As a result, this large county town, which has 2,000 county soldiers and more than 10,000 strong men, was actually opened in a riot set off by only 20 or 30 people. And the Guan Hai army, which was quite experienced in responding to the siege of the city, naturally successfully seized this sudden opportunity.

By the time the news reached Zhang Qiang's ears, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army of Guanhai should have completely occupied this Gucheng county with a population of more than 60,000.

Don't think that 60,000 is not a big number. You must know that in this era, a city with a total permanent population of more than 10,000 can be regarded as a decent big city. Even the world-famous European cities of London and Paris, the total population of the cities at that time was less than 60,000.

Even if half of the 60,000 people in Gucheng County temporarily fled to the city to escape the military disaster, the scale of the remaining 30,000 permanent residents is enough to make Gucheng County a veritable big city. For the occupiers, such a big city contains great wealth!

In this way, even if Guan Haibu was entangled in Gucheng County, he was reluctant to leave for a while. The consequence of this is that the Tianping Army will have to face the main force of the Han army independently!

- Holy!

Even if he was as calm as arrogance, when he heard the news from Guan Haibu, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice. As a result, he had to urgently summon Wang Guo, Yu Ban, Xie Xun and several other subordinates who knew more about the art of war and strategy to discuss the next move of the Tianping Army.

-- I must not stay in Dong'e County anymore!

This is the consensus of everyone.

But where do you go next?

Wang Guo believes that it should be closer to the Ministry of Management. At least, the troops of the Guanhai Department are relatively strong, and in the face of the threat of the Han army, even if they can't win, they can fight and retreat.

Yu Ban and Xie Xun believed that the training of the Guan Hai Department was insufficient, the military discipline was not strict, and the real combat effectiveness was actually quite suspicious. With the marching speed of the Guan Hai Department, it was bitten by the Han army, that was certain. The Tianping Army should not take the initiative to run back to the Guanhai Department and throw themselves into the net.

However, on the question of where to go, Yu Ban and Xie Xun had different views.

Yu Ban suggested that he immediately make a light detour and return to Taishan County. With the big target of Guan Haibu, it is enough to help the Tianping Army and attract the attention of the Han Army. And the Tianping Army has a lot of roots in Taishan County, as long as they return to Taishan and gain a foothold again, they can naturally be in an invincible position.

Xie Xun believed that Mount Tai was too remote to have any impact on the overall situation of the Central Plains. Although the Yanzhou Yellow Turban Army has failed, the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army is still strong under the leadership of the "Great Sage and Good Teacher" and his two brothers. If the Tianping Army has no better place to go, it might as well go to join the headquarters of the "Great Sage and Good Division" and jointly defeat the Jizhou Han Army.

The three of them expressed their opinions, argued a few words, and then they all tacitly stopped. Zhang Mad thought for a moment and said to the three of them:

"I have my own opinion on this matter. The current trend is to pacify the subordinates first and be ready to withdraw at any time. ”

-- These three opinions, stripped of the superficial principles, actually have more basic reasons.

Let's not talk about Wang Guo. Wang Guo is proficient in all kinds of rules in the army, such as the set of military rules and military discipline used in the Ping Army today, almost all of which are from Wang Guo's hands. However, in addition to this specialty, Wang Guo's insight in military strategy is a little flattering.

Yu Ban is a native of Taishan and has a close relationship with Zang Ba. The ancients' affection for the countryside was difficult for later generations to feel. If you return to Mount Tai, Yu Ban will naturally be like a fish in water, and his position in the Tianping Army will naturally be more and more consolidated.

Xie Xun's father and son are both pious "Taiping Dao" Taoists. Now that the situation is grim, of course, I will think of moving closer to Zhang Jiao, the spiritual leader of all the "Taiping Dao" Taoists, the "Great Sage and Good Teacher".

And Zhang Qiang himself, if he hadn't been crossed by later generations, the choice he made would have been similar to Xie Xun.

However, as a traverser who knows the general trend of history in the future, Zhang Qiang can actually have a clearer understanding of the future development path of the Tianping Army from the perspective of a bystander.

However, no matter which path you plan to take in the future, there is one problem that must be addressed first.

The pursuers of the Han army!

ps: Character - Bu Ji.

There is only one sentence in history that Bu Ji is recorded: [Huangfu Song] attacked the Yellow Turban Bu Ji in Cangting in Dongjun again, captured Bu Ji alive, and beheaded more than 7,000 people. However, it can be confirmed that his identity is that of the commander of the Yellow Turban Army.
