Chapter 41: Zheng Tai is about to vomit blood
"Okay, just according to Captain Wang Chong. We will first expand our military power to cope with the next war. After a moment, Zhang Shuang nodded and made a decision.
"Your Excellency is wise."
The four lieutenants were all ecstatic and bowed.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Shuanglei is popular, and he does it when he thinks of it. At that moment, Ming Dian Wei, the four captains, together with some personal entourage, arrived at a large camp outside the city.
This camp is the camp where the defeated Yellow Turbans are imprisoned. There are guards everywhere, and the guards are very tight.
However, there are no more than 150,000 people. Most of them were killed, trampled to death, or scattered in all directions during the battle last night. In the morning, Zhang Shuang ordered Dian Wei to kill the elites, leaders, and generals of the Yellow Turban Sect.
Thousands of people were executed.
The remaining Yellow Turbans defeated only about 70,000.
Zhang Shuang wanted to select about 11,000 people from them to reorganize his troops.
In the camp, there is a school field. Zhang Shuang quickly led the crowd to the school and stood on the platform, and then ordered Dian Wei to arrange drums and gather the defeated Yellow Turban army.
"Knock knock!"
In the sound of earth-shattering drums, one by one the Yellow Turban soldiers were driven out by the Han soldiers and gathered in the school grounds. There were 70,000 people, black and pressed, densely packed.
These 70,000 people are no longer brave, and only embarrassment and discouragement remain.
When they saw Zhang Shuang on the stage, they were deeply afraid. Just because of this person, among their 150,000 people, they were defeated, shattering their dream of Huang Tian.
"The winner is king, and the loser is the loser. Now your lives are in my hands. Zhang Shuang stepped forward and said loudly.
The Yellow Turban soldier suddenly felt even more frightened, and couldn't help but stir.
Feeling the aura of fear, Zhang Shuang smiled with satisfaction and said, "There is only one way for me to deal with the enemy's surrender. It's all pitted! ”
"Pit Kills ???!"
The pupils of the 70,000 yellow scarves suddenly contracted, and the cold air rushed out. looked at Zhang Shuang on the stage, like looking at the devil.
The leading general killed the enemy in a pit, and precedents abounded. None of them doubted it.
"Luckily, though, you're in luck. Because of the fight with you, my soldiers have suffered heavy losses. I must replenish the troops, and among you there are about eleven thousand. Will enter my big camp, and the big camp of the four lieutenants to my left and right. ”
Zhang Shuang saw that the atmosphere was about the same, so he said.
Suddenly, fear turned into longing, desire, and hope. The will to survive erupted in the hearts of all the Yellow Turban soldiers.
"My lord, I am brave and good at fighting, and I can definitely help you and make great achievements."
"My lord, I go to the soup and fire, and I don't shy away from hardships and dangers. Definitely a good pawn! ”
"Your Excellency................"
A group of yellow scarves recommended themselves in unison, and there was a lot of noise.
"What you say doesn't make any sense. Bragging rights, who wouldn't ???? Zhang Shuang sneered, and then said: "There is only one standard for my deletion, run!" ”
"Run, you can see if you have the physical strength. Do you have the willpower to not despair in the face of all difficulties? ”
"If you want to live, you run for your life. The last 11,000 people will survive. Zhang Shuang said.
"Running ????!"
"Survival ???!"
Some of the Yellow Turbans were desperate, some were happy, and some gritted their teeth and did not give up. In order to survive, all must work hard. If you don't have good physical strength, you can win by willpower.
"My lord, a good move!"
"This time, the selection is definitely the elite of the elite."
The four lieutenants quietly gave a thumbs up to Zhang Shuang.
"Let's start, stare hard. Those who steal and cheat will be killed directly. Zhang Shuang said to Dian Wei.
"No."
Dian Wei agreed with a bang.
"Knock knock!" Soon after, the drummers beat the drums. The drums beat in the sky. Dian Wei held a double halberd, rode a horse, and a pair of tiger eyes were like a tiger angry, fierce and vicious.
Hundreds of soldiers under his command, wearing armor and holding spears, are eyeing the tiger.
"Da Da Da!"
In the midst of this surveillance, the Yellow Turban soldiers were ordered to line up in a long line and start running.
In order to survive, everyone has done their best.
Of course, there are also those who cheat and cheat. On the way, he deliberately slowed down, but he couldn't hide hundreds of pairs of eyes.
"You, come out!"
Soon, Dian Wei spotted one of them and shouted.
The man dodged his eyes and leaned towards the crowd. Dian Wei ordered someone to arrest him.
"My lord, spare your life. I didn't mean to, I had a stomachache. The man begged for mercy.
"Slash!"
Dian Wei took matters into his own hands, and his halberd fell. The big head rolled to the ground, and blood gushed all over the ground. Soon, more than a dozen people were arrested, all of them were beheaded, and hung on the flagpole.
A dozen bloody heads, as a deterrent. Suddenly, all the defeated Yellow Turban troops did not dare to steal and play tricks, so they had enough strength and ran.
Ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand. Soon, fifty or sixty thousand people fell. The remaining 11,000 people are still trying to hold on.
They sweated like rain and panted like oxen. Some people are almost numb in their feet. Only by holding his breath did he not let himself stop.
"That's them. Count the number of people and make a roster. Zhang Shuang said with a smile.
"No." Dian Wei agreed with a bang.
Those who fell were suddenly desperate.
"What about the rest?" Wang Chong asked, "Do you really want to kill in a pit?" ”
"It's easy to kill, and it doesn't matter. But they may still be useful, so let's keep them for now. Zhang Shuang smiled, and said, "What I said just now was just to scare them." ”
"Huh!" Wang Chong was stunned.
Soon after, more than 11,000 people were selected. Among them, the most outstanding four or five thousand people were included in Zhang Shuang's command, and he used the more than 1,000 elite Han troops left behind after the battle as the backbone to gather these four or five thousand people.
became, his six thousand base battalion soldiers and horses.
The rest of the lieutenants, each of whom led two thousand troops.
The army nominally under Zhang Shuang's rule totaled 14,000 people.
Of course, after the soldiers were elected. Zhang Shuang was not idle waiting for the reward from the imperial court, but ordered to step up training, and killed pigs and sheep from time to time to replenish the strength of the soldiers.
The army is changing day by day, and the momentum is getting stronger and stronger!
……………………
Western. A hundred miles away from the long shrine.
There was an army of about 3,000 horses and infantry hurrying on the way.
The flag of the word "Zheng" flutters in the wind, which is very majestic. Under the banner of Jing, Zheng Tai and Wu Kuang stood on horseback. Wu Kuang is in his thirties, his lips are red and his teeth are white, he is very handsome, but his eyes exude a cold light, which is very compelling.
The battle on the battlefield is the first time for Zheng Tai. It's been driven to the shelves again, don't mention the mood. But when he looked at Wu Kuang beside him, his confidence surged.
This one is a rare brave and good fighter under the command of the general.
This person was born in Chenliu County, Wu. belongs to the generation of scholars, but chooses to lead the troops to fight, and is both civil and military.
"General Wu, do we really have a chance to break the yellow scarf this time?" Jung Tae asked, a question he had asked many times along the way, but still couldn't help but ask.
"As long as Zhang Shuang of the Changsha is not broken, the inside and the outside should be combined, and the Changshe can be stabilized. Waiting for the army of Huangfu Song to come, he can break the thief army of 150,000. ”
Wu Kuang replied calmly.
Zheng Tai doesn't understand military affairs, but after hearing too much of this kind of talk. And my heart gradually believed. Couldn't help but feel his heart surging.
Although it was driven to the shelves, it was very unpleasant.
But this is a credit for nothing, Zhang Shuang, Zhang Shuang, do I want to thank you for stabilizing the long society????
Zheng Tai has already begun to fantasize about the glorious scene of breaking the yellow scarf under the command of Huangfu Song.
