Under the attack of nearly 20,000 people of the four route armies of Ji Ling, Zhou Cang, Zhou Zheng and Cheng Gu, the Yellow Turban Army of Runan concentrated its forces in the four cities of Pingyu, Liyang, Zhaoling, and North Yichun, and prepared to defend to the death.

According to the information of the scouts, there were 20,000 Yellow Turban troops in Pingyu, 15,000 in Liyang, 12,000 in Zhaoling, and 9,000 in Beiyichun. A total of 56,000 yellow scarves.

Feng Yao's Sixth Route Army was combined into three routes, Zhou Cangcheng Gu who attacked Lingcheng had 10,000 troops, and Ji Ling Zhou, who attacked Yichun in the north, had 11,000 troops, while Feng Yao only led 9,000 troops, ordering Dai's team to be the left army, and Xu Chu to lead 3,000 each to the right army and advance towards Liyang.

Gong Du, the chief general of the Yellow Turban in Yang City, is about forty years old, eight feet tall, dignified in appearance, if you don't look at the identity of the Yellow Turban thief, only the momentum is also regarded as a hero, when he was young, because the family is a military household, a little spare money, while practicing martial arts, he also studied private school for a few years, and later after his father died of illness, Gong Du made a living by hunting, and had two sons and two daughters, the eldest son left home because of conscription when he reached the age of sixteen, and soon died on the battlefield.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out in 184, Gong Du did not participate in the Yellow Turban at that time, and was dedicated to raising a son and two daughters at home, but he did not expect that once the officers and soldiers were killed by the Yellow Turban when they were cleaning up the Yellow Turban, they were defeated by the Yellow Turban, and the officers and soldiers began to loot the passing villages on the way to retreat, not only robbing money and food, but also in order to cover up the facts, pointing out that Gong Du and other villagers were Yellow Turbans, sending troops to slaughter the people, cutting off the heads of the people as the heads of the Yellow Turbans, Gong Du could only hold his young son in a panic and lead his family to flee while killing, and the second daughter and his wife were killed by the officers and soldiers in the flight.

Gong Du led his eldest daughter Gong Yinglian and his youngest son Gong Ming, angrily threw himself into the Yellow Turban Army, in the past ten years, Gong Du has become today's party commander step by step by virtue of his ability to be civil and martial, and his daughter Gong Yinglian is already nineteen years old this year, and his youngest son is also twelve years old, all very smart and filial.

Her eldest daughter Gong Yinglian because of her childhood experience, since she joined the Yellow Turban Army, she practiced martial arts every day, studied hard in military books, Gong Du also had no way to take her, when Gong Yinglian was sixteen years old, Gong Du wanted her to marry, who thought that there was a major event that the princes of the Eighteen Roads entered Beijing to ask Dong Zhuo, the world was in chaos again, the people were not happy, the Yellow Turban Army was also attacked by the princes from all walks of life, and the Yellow Turban of Gong Du was also broken up and .......

After the capture of Runan, Gong Yinglian has become a famous female general in the Yellow Turban Army, with a beautiful appearance, heroic spirit, similar height to men, nearly seven feet, although the strength is not as great as other generals, but the marksmanship is superb, the body is flexible, and there are few opponents in the Gong Du army.

Many pretentious Yellow Turban generals wanted to marry her, but she resolutely refused! Gong Du was also helpless, and asked the reason, Gong Yinglian never said, but just prevaricated on the grounds that the world was not peaceful, why was the family at home, etc.

On this day, Gong Yinglian, who was guarding Liyang City with her father, heard that Feng Yao's army was coming, so she privately asked her father Gong Du for his life: "Father, that Feng Yao is very hateful, take our city and kill our generals, please allow me to bring 3,000 elite soldiers, and kill the prestige first while his camp is not established!" ”

Gong Du hurriedly said: "Yinglian, don't underestimate Feng Yao, Huang Shao will cause Ruyin to lose because of underestimating Feng Yao, otherwise because of this, how can we and the righteous army get to this passive situation!" I won't allow you to go out of town! ”

"Father, my daughter didn't underestimate that Feng Yao, but I expected that Feng Yao's successive victories must be a little arrogant, thinking that our army would not dare to go out of the city, but only dare to defend to the death, so I only dared to lead 9,000 troops to attack the city guarded by 15,000 troops!" Gong Yinglian said.

"No! If you have something to do, how can you explain it to your dead mother for your father!! Our army only needs to defend the city, Feng Yao does not have much food and grass, and it will not last! At that time, it will retreat, and when it withdraws, our army will attack again, and it will be a great victory! Gong Du's expression was stern and firm, and he denied Gong Yinglian's request.

Seeing that her father not only disagreed, but also mentioned her dead mother, Gong Yinglian's eyes turned red, she knelt on Gong Du's knees, and cried: "Father! My daughter is just here for revenge! The rebel army has been forced to such a point, if our army can not take the initiative to attack, I am afraid that the rebel army will think that our army is afraid of the officers and soldiers, and dare not face the battle, at that time, I am only afraid that the army will be in chaos, and we will not be able to hold on to the officers and soldiers to retreat, and we will be defeated by ourselves! ”

As a father, Gong Yinglian has suffered so much since she was a child, and no one knows it better than Gong! So he has also loved Gong Yinglian since he was a child, and when he saw his daughter crying, Gong Du also knew that his tone was a little heavy, so he couldn't help but sigh, revealed his true feelings, pulled his daughter up, and said: "Daughter, what you said also has some truth, for my father agreed that you should lead 3,000 elite soldiers out to frustrate the morale of the enemy soldiers, but you must not fall in love with the war, accept it when you see it, and quickly return to the city to hold on!" ”

Gong Yinglian broke into tears and laughed, sat beside Gong Du, and asked: "Father, even if we wait for the righteous army to hold on, Feng Yao will not dare to attack the city for the time being, but after the northern and southern counties are broken by it, our army will not be surrounded in the two cities of Pingyu and Bencheng, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the result of being killed in the city for a long time!" ”

Gong Du was silent.

Seeing this, Gong Yinglian looked sad and sad, and said sadly: "Father, my daughter is not afraid of death, if she can die as soon as possible, she can also meet my mother under Jiuquan as soon as possible, Brother Ming is still young, for the sake of my Gong family and the children of thousands of righteous soldiers, my daughter is willing to fight to the death, if she is lucky enough to kill the head of the enemy's main general Feng Yao, then all problems will be solved!" If not, it will only be a loss of 3,000 soldiers and horses, and my father will still be able to hold on to this city at that time! ”

Gong Du saw that Gong Yinglian had a mortal heart, and mourned in his heart, if according to the surface of the Runan battle situation, this is obviously right, but Gong Du had already made a big plan three days ago, in order to keep it secret, except for Liu Pi, no one in the entire Yellow Turban Army knew about it, but now Gong knows that he can no longer hide Gong Yinglian, and he will not let him know about it, but he is afraid that his daughter will really die outside the city!

"Yinglian! Your Father knows that you are heroic, but you must not fight to the death! I had a conspiracy with Liu Dashuai in the battle of Runan, but I didn't let you know about it for fear of leaking out! If I follow my strategy, Feng Yao's northern and southern armies will be defeated in the near future, and at that time, with Feng Yao's 9,000 lone troops outside the city, it is just a joke to want to attack the city! Gong Du said confidently.

"Father! You can't be trying to cheat on your daughter, are you? Gong Yinglian's face was full of surprise, her beautiful eyes were wide open, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and the two rows of neat teeth were exposed from time to time between the words, looking very cute, and the sad look just now was also gone, as if she had never been the same.

Gong Du looked at his daughter's serious appearance, as well as the look of belief or disbelief, and his mood suddenly improved, Gong Du himself didn't know why, no matter how bad his mood was, but when he saw his daughter's appearance, he would be inexplicably satisfied and proud, hehe laughed a few times, Gong Du couldn't help but touch his daughter's head, and said with a smile: "Good daughter!" Tell you this secret for your father, but don't let anyone know about it! ”

"Hmm!!" Gong Yinglian closed her lips tightly, looked at her father with a smile, and put on a posture of listening carefully.
