In the following days, Zhang Yi trained in Zhuo County, and it seemed that he did not mean to go south to crusade against the Yellow Turbans, but in fact, Zhang Yi knew the news of the Yellow Turban Rebellion clearly, because Qin Ying and Bai Zhan had been passing the news to Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi was very clear about every move of the Yellow Turban Army.

Here Zhang Yi did not move in Zhuo County, but over there Liu Bei had a new idea after leaving Zhuo County.

Liu Bei and Gongsun Chan are both from Lu Zhi's name, so it is much easier to speak, he and Gongsun Chan directly said that he wants to achieve some meritorious thoughts, and wants to borrow troops from Gongsun Chan to go to Guangzong, Gongsun Chan is not good to refuse, so he gave him 5,000 steps to ride, and the next day after borrowing the soldiers, Liu Bei rushed to Guangzong.

Guangzong belongs to Jizhou in the Eastern Han Dynasty, for a hundred miles south of Julu, the geographical location is very important, when the Yellow Turban Army rebelled in history, the 50,000 central army led by Lu Zhi came straight to this place, the armies of the two sides met in the territory of Guangzong, and the battle was difficult to solve.

Although Lu Zhi's Han army was far inferior to Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army in terms of numbers, the combat effectiveness and equipment of the Han army were significantly stronger than that of the Yellow Turban Army.

But the above is history, because Zhang Yi replaced Lu Zhi's position, so now the Han army in Guangzong is Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong also took a lot of advantage at the beginning, after all, Zhang Yi gave Huang Zhong nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Chen Gong assisted, so it was naturally smooth sailing, but whenever the Dingping army took the advantage, the Yellow Turban Army would always recruit a large number of red armor warriors.

Red armor wrestlers are the worst in the armor wrestlers, although those red armor wrestlers are not outstanding, nor are they invulnerable, but they are not afraid of death, each can be comparable to a general like Zhou Wu, nearly a hundred red armor wrestlers charge together, the momentum is also extremely terrifying, in order to deal with the red armor wrestlers, Huang Zong and Chen Gong have thought of various methods, and every time they can work, but every time they eliminate a batch, there will be a new batch of new ones, as if they can't be used up at all, and Huang Zhong's head is big, but he just can't achieve any substantial victory.

Now Guangzong City is still in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, the commander of the army is Zhang Liang, there is a Feilong Mountain in the south of Guangzong City, there is a valley in Feilong Mountain, the valley is about 400 meters long, more than 100 meters wide, the Yellow Turban Army built a simple fortress here, Huang Zhong is now attacking this fortress, but due to the long-term attack, Huang Zhong has retreated to the south of the Qishui River to rest after losing nearly 10,000 troops, Zhang Liang took the opportunity to also advance the front thirty miles, occupying the north of the Qishui River, At this time, the Dingping Army and the Yellow Turban Army had formed a confrontation situation, and it was not very easy for Huang Zhong to take Guangzong City.

At the same time, in Yingchuan, Zhang Mancheng led 200,000 Yellow Turban troops to confront the 80,000 Han troops led by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

At this point, the armies of the two sides entered a stalemate stage at Changshe.

On the third day of his stay in Zhuo County, Zhang Yi received a reply from Sima Wei and Chen Gong, the content of the two replies was roughly similar, both suggesting that Zhang Yi wait in hibernation and not to expand the army to attract the attention of all parties, as for how to deal with the prisoners, Chen Gong's suggestion was to single out those who committed the most heinous crimes and hand them over directly to the imperial court, and those who were forced to rebel could be sent home, while Sima Wei suggested that the remaining ones should adopt the strategy of governing the displaced people in Hedong County.

Putting down Sima Wei's reply, Zhang Yi thought about it, in exchange for Dian Wei, and asked him to bring Cheng Yuanzhi in, from Cheng Yuanzhi, Zhang Yi directly got a list, and that list was all those bandits and robbers who were recruited into the Yellow Turban Army, with this list, then Zhang Yi only needs to follow the map to pick out those who are extremely evil, and treat these people, Zhang Yi will say one word, kill!

However, Zhang Yi did not kill those people immediately, and it was not until Cheng Yuanzhi escaped from the prisoner of war camp with more than 3,000 people that night that Zhang Yi really began to wield the butcher knife in his hand.

Cheng Yuanzhi's "escape" and "bao move" were naturally arranged by Zhang Yi, and in order to act like a real one, Zhang Yi was also carefully arranged.

Previously, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, under the prompting and guidance of Cheng Yuanzhi, jumped out of more than 10,000 people with fewer "case records" and the right age, ready to train and then supplement them to the team, and on the night of the "bao movement", some of these people were responsible for guarding the prisoner of war camp, and then the prisoner of war camp was moved, and some of the prisoners of war who surrendered to Cheng rebelled and released some of the prisoners in the prisoner of war camp, including Cheng Yuanzhi.

After Cheng Yuanzhi "escaped" from the prison, he immediately organized people to break through and launched a fierce attack on those prisoners of war who did not surrender to the water, and those who did not surrender to the water were a little flustered at first, but after being killed more than 100 people, their blood was also stimulated, and they began to fight back, after a bloody battle between the two sides, Cheng Yuanzhi led thousands of people to flee south, and at this time the wind battalion began to pursue, of course, they could not catch up.

That night, Zhang Yi killed nearly half of the people who participated in the Bao movement but did not escape, and the next day Zhang Yi asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to kill some according to the list provided by Cheng Yuanzhi.

At this point, there were originally nearly 40,000 prisoners of war, and there were less than 20,000 left, Zhang Yi divided the remaining prisoners into three, and let them build their own villages as they did in Hedong County before, while Zhang Yi planted all the Yellow Turban prisoners of war he accepted in three villages, and left 5,000 Storm Battalion to supervise these prisoners of war, but in fact, Zhang Yi secretly ordered Storm Camp to train those prisoners of war.

Zhang Yi, a prisoner of war from Zhuo County, thought that he had handled it well, so he sent someone to bring his own method of dealing with prisoners of war to various places, so that all localities could follow his own methods to deal with the problem of prisoners of war.

After arranging the issue of prisoners of war, Zhang Yi ordered Han Tao to take the heads of the executed prisoners of war and Bu Ji's heads to Luoyang, and at the same time, Sima Wei also set off to Luoyang, in order to pay tribute to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Yi ordered the villages and towns they passed along the way to shout "Zhuojun victory, Dingping army broke the yellow turban thief", so shouting, on the one hand, to promote the victory of the Dingping army, on the other hand, to appease the people, so that people with different intentions do not dare to act rashly, so that the people are not easy to be incited and bewitched, and rebel together, and this idea is still from Chen Gong.

As soon as things were arranged, Zhang Yi said goodbye to Liu Yan and rushed to Jizhou according to the plan, his destination was Pinglingdu, as long as Pinglingdu was occupied, Zhang Yi would be able to close the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou and beat the dogs.

Of course, it is not easy to occupy Pinglingdu, Zhangjiao's Taiping Road has the greatest influence in Qing, Xu, You, Hebei, Jing, Yang, Zhu, and Henan eight prefectures, among which Jizhou, Youzhou, Qingzhou and Zhuzhou are the most powerful places in Taiping Dao, and the people of these four states believe in Taiping Dao in six or seven out of ten, so after the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Yellow Turban thieves in these four states are the most rampant.

Pinglingdu, is the Yellow Turban Army connecting Jizhou and Zhuzhou and Qingzhou transportation hub, to the Yellow Turban Army is of great significance, Zhang Jiao put a full 200,000 troops here, and the commander of the army is still Zhang Yi's old opponent, the general Zhang Bao.

From Zhuojun to Pinglingdu, Zhang Yi needs to pass through the four counties of Hejian, Anping, Bohai and Heqing, with the current strength of the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou, it is really difficult for Zhang Yi to hit the goal, so after marching to Hejian County, Zhang Yi did not continue to go south, but camped on the spot, and issued a summoning order to the Gaoshun Department, Wenpin Department, Xiaowu Department, Zhou Wu Department and Qin Qiu Department who were active in Youzhou, so that they hurried to Hejian to assemble.

At this time, the overall situation of Youzhou has been basically stabilized, after Zhang Yi and Xiao Wu exterminated Cheng Yuanzhi and Pei Yuanshao, there is basically no large Yellow Turban Army in Youzhou, and Zhang Yi's designated plan is to attack in multiple ways, so Gao Shun and they are also competing with each other, so that in just about half a month, the Yellow Turban forces in the entire Youzhou have basically been purged, which also greatly relieves the pressure on Gongsun Zhan, so that he can deal with Goguryeo more calmly, for which Gongsun Chan also specially wrote to the court to pay tribute to Zhang Yi.

After all the troops arrived in Hejian County, the troops under Zhang Yi's command had reached 100,000, most of which were cavalry, and almost all the generals under his command were gathered around him.

After the army was extensive, Zhang Yi's self-confidence was also unprecedentedly high, and the day after the army was assembled, he waved his army south to attack Hejian City.

Speaking of which, Zhang Jiao did not think that the Han army could fight from the direction of Youzhou to Jizhou, so the strength of Hejian County was either sent into Youzhou, or was transferred, at this time the strength of the Yellow Turban Army in Hejian City was less than 30,000, and when the Yellow Turban Army broke through Hejian City, the collapsed west city wall had not yet been repaired, which was almost equivalent to no city wall for the Dingping Army.

After seeing Hejian City, Zhang Yi smiled and said to the generals, we can sleep peacefully in Hejian City tonight, the generals smiled when they heard it, and they all nodded in agreement, and Chen Gong, who knew that Zhang Yi was unwilling to fight a tough battle, even suggested that the city should only be besieged on three sides, so that the Yellow Turban Army knew that he was not in a nowhere to retreat, so that he would not resist desperately.

Chen Gong's suggestion was in line with Zhang Yi's thoughts, and he ordered Chen Gong to command the arrangement.

For the battle of Hejian City, almost everyone didn't pay attention to it, and even the soldiers below thought that taking Hejian City was simply a matter of probing for something, but when the battle really started, everyone, including Zhang Yi, was dumbfounded.

The kind of devastating and decaying that everyone imagined did not appear, and the Yellow Turban Army guards did not give up resistance and abandon the city as everyone thought, but also went to the front line to fight, under his leadership, the morale of the Yellow Turban defenders was unprecedentedly high, and the Dingping Army actually fought for two whole days without taking the collapsed west city wall, let alone entering Hejian City, which made Zhang Yi, who had been smooth sailing, very annoyed.

"Oops," Seeing that less than half of his thousand-man team was killed and retreated, Zhang Yi angrily pointed to the west city wall and scolded: "Damn, Ben Hou won't believe it, a small Hejian City can't be taken down, give me two more thousand people, whoever dares to retreat this time will not be spared!"

The wall of Hejian City is 600 meters wide, it is the only strong city in the entire Hejian County, and the collapsed city wall is less than 20 meters wide, which is not conducive to the deployment of the army, so Zhang Yi can only send more than 1,000 people up each time, plus after the city wall collapses, the wall bricks are scattered on the ground, and it is very inconvenient for the attacking side to walk, let alone the cavalry.

At the beginning, Zhang Yi also tried to use archers to attack the defenders of the defensive wall, but after all, the defenders stood on the commanding heights, and after trying to fold one hundred and eighty people, Zhang Yi let the archers withdraw and began to attack with infantry alone, but the single arm of the battle, so that the infantry who have always been fighting with the cavalry is very unaccustomed, plus the defenders on the city wall have been assisting in the defense, and the Dingping army has not been able to attack for a long time.

Zhang Yi gave a death order here, and the generals under his command did not dare to slack off, Gao Shun and Wen Ping each rushed forward with a thousand people in person, and when they saw the Dingping army rushing up again, the black-faced man who defended Hejian City didn't say a word, and immediately picked up the ghost-headed big knife and rushed up.

Seeing that his winner would rush forward with a big knife held high, those Yellow Turban Shiyu who had just gone through a hard battle immediately rushed forward with a shout, and at this moment the ghost head big knife in the hands of the black-faced man had become the spiritual sustenance of those Yellow Turban soldiers, because the soldiers of the Dingping Army who died under the big knife had eight hundred, if not one thousand.

"Damn the Yellow Turban Thief!"

Seeing the black-faced man, Wen Ping couldn't help but be angry, because he had always been in charge of infantry training, and most of the soldiers who attacked Hejian City before were from his command, and those soldiers he trained with his own hands were now mostly folded under Hejian City, and Wen Ping's two most powerful company commanders were killed by the black-faced man himself, and now Wen Ping saw how he could not be angry.

From Wen Ping's momentum, the black-faced man knew that the comer was not good, so he secretly added caution, when Wen Ping stabbed with a gun, the big man immediately blocked with a knife, calmly dodged Wen Ping's full force blow, and then took a step forward, and slashed Huashan directly at Wen Ping's head.

Wen Ping naturally did not give it in vain, in the face of Dahan's powerful knife, Wen Ping took a step back, and at the same time raised the gun to frame Dahan's knife, but just when Wen Ping took a step forward and wanted to counterattack, his forward foot stepped into the air.

After stepping on the air, Wen Ping's body was unstable, and the whole person fell backwards, at this time, the black-faced man's knife was slashed down again, and Gao Shun was ten meters away at this time, and there was no time to rescue.

"Zhongye!!"

Seeing that Wen Ping was about to die under the knife of the black-faced man, Gao Shun's face changed suddenly.
