Chapter 1182: Encirclement and Suppression
On the side of the officers and soldiers, nearly 20,000 people died, basically all of them were Lu Zhi's soldiers, Sun Yang's cavalry also had nearly 2,000 people killed, there were too many Yellow Turban soldiers, as long as they fell into it, they would be exterminated, and the more than 2,000 people who died lost their momentum and fell into the encirclement of the Yellow Turban thieves and were besieged and killed, in comparison, this is already a small loss.

Looking at so many captives, Lu Zhi had a little headache, he didn't have much food and grass, and suddenly there were 80,000 more mouths, which was a very big expense, did he want to kill them all.
"Let's send them all to Youzhou, Biansai needs people to open up the wasteland, these people are good laborers."
Sun Yang came out to solve the problem for Lu Zhi, Sun Yang had already expected this situation, Lu Zhi was not Huangfu Song, he could kill tens of thousands of prisoners or even hundreds of thousands.
"That's the only way to do it, or we'll run out of food by these captives."
Lu Zhi thought about it and said, this is indeed a way, after all, you can't kill these captives, let alone let these captives go, otherwise these captives will be able to become enemies again in the blink of an eye and send them to the cold side stop, which is a good choice, which can not only punish these captives, but also solve the current problem.
After Lu Zhi agreed, Sun Yang divided five thousand cavalry to escort these captives to Youzhou, and at the same time asked Tian Feng to bring people out to answer, those prisoners knew that they were going to be sent to Youzhou, and there was no resistance, they had heard before, everyone in Youzhou had a field to cultivate, and it was not bad to go to Youzhou, at least they didn't have to worry about dying on the battlefield.
Although the captives are 80,000, but plus the families of those captives, there are more than 100,000, and the mighty army is marching north under the guard of 5,000 cavalry, if they want to rebel halfway, 5,000 cavalry has no effect at all, they can only kill a little casually, and then leave, it is impossible to cross those captives, only when they arrive in Youzhou and are taken over by Tian Feng.
Sun Yang is not worried, these people are the most simple people, as long as they have a chance to live, they will not make any moves, and Sun Yang has sent someone to tell them that as long as they work honestly in Youzhou, they will have their own fields.
After destroying Zhang Bao's army, good news also came from Changshe, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun also defeated the Bocai army and began to sweep the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan.
Lu Zhi has already begun to mobilize the army to deal with Zhang Jiao, as long as Zhang Jiao is eliminated, then the Yellow Turban Army will come to an end, without General Tiangong, they are probably a swarm of headless flies.
Sun Yang was sent out by Lu Zhi to clean up the small groups of Yellow Turban Army around him to avoid harassment of those cities and villages, and the Yellow Turban Army was a swarm of locusts that grew everywhere he went.
Sun Yang, who already had enough meritorious service, did not fight for merit, and began to sweep the Yellow Turban Army all over Jizhou, as long as the captured prisoners were sent back to Youzhou to replenish the population of Youzhou, the population of Youzhou in this Yellow Turban Rebellion, I am afraid that it will increase a lot.
After the good news from all over the country was transmitted back to Luoyang, Liu Hong also breathed a sigh of relief, especially Sun Yang caught Zhang Bao, the general of the Digong, and Zhang Liang, the general of the Rengong, and sent them to Luoyang.
For Sun Yang, Liu Hong is also very satisfied, plus Zhang Rang often says good things about Sun Yang next to him, Liu Hong has a good sense of Sun Yang, Zhang Rang is also doing his best, this is not only because Sun Yang sent him money, but more importantly, the actions of the two idiots Feng Xu and Xu Feng before have shaken the status of the Ten Standing Servants, and there must be something else to divert Liu Hong's attention, Sun Yang's killing of the Yellow Turban Thief is the best way to make Liu Hong forget the previous unpleasantness.
The ministers above the court also breathed a sigh of relief, the Yellow Turban thieves had approached Luoyang before, if Luoyang was broken, they would suffer, and this period of black history would be recorded in the history books.
However, everyone immediately realized that a powerful existence slowly floated, that is, Sun Yang, before Sun Yang defeated Xianbei, they didn't think so, because they themselves looked down on the Xianbei tribe, and felt that it was just a small people outside the Saiwai, and there was nothing great about defeating it, and every year in the grass valley, Xianbei only invaded the border passes, and did not dare to enter the hinterland, which shows that the Xianbei tribe is not a powerful character.
But now, Sun Yang has defeated the Yellow Turban Ant Thief who can't be defeated by the court officials, and has also arrested two masterminds, which makes people realize the power of Youzhou, some people have decided to befriend Sun Yang, who let Sun Yang usually let Hu Yan contact with the people in the court in Luoyang is good, at least there is no bad feeling, whether it is a relative of the He family, or the important minister Yuan, or the eunuch Shichang, they all maintain a good contact.
The ten permanent servants Zhang let them have decided to try their best to win over Sun Yang, so that they can have one more foreign aid in the future, so Zhang Rang is desperate to say good things to Sun Yang.
Yuan Feng also decided to add a good subordinate disciple to the Yuan family, as long as Sun Yang took refuge in the Yuan family, then the Yuan family would still be prosperous in the future.
He Jin also wants to increase his right to speak, after all, he only has a sister and younger brother, and people look down on him above the court, even if he has become a general now, but those scholars should look down on themselves, they still look down on themselves, as long as they find a strong alliance, they will have more say in the court.
But now there is still a war, these things are not in a hurry, let's talk about it when the Yellow Turban Thieves are pacified, but everyone is a lot more kind to Sun Yang's representatives.
In Jizhou, Sun Yang and Lu Zhi are compressing Zhang Jiao's living space, Lu Zhi is leading the morale of the Han army to squeeze Zhang Jiao step by step, forcing Zhang Jiao to fight a decisive battle, and Sun Yang is wandering outside, dealing with the small forces of those Yellow Turban thieves, forcing the Yellow Turban Thieves to gather together, and it will be just the end of the nest at that time.
Zhang Jiao wanted to take advantage of Sun Yang's absence several times to defeat Lu Zhi with superior forces, so that without Lu Zhi's army, Sun Yang's cavalry of less than 10,000 would not be afraid.
But every time the two armies face each other, Sun Yang will arrive in time, because Sun Yang always keeps a distance of less than two days from Lu Zhi's army, as long as Lu Zhi can hold out for two days, Sun Yang will lead the army to arrive and attack Zhang Jiao with Lu Zhi, this is Sun Yang's strategy, Sun Yang will not let Lu Zhi be defeated, if the Han army loses too much, it is not a good thing.
