Chapter 11: The merit of greed for heaven is your own
However, it is said that since Dong Zhuo led the troops on behalf of Lu Zhi, although the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was brave, Zhang Jiao's army seemed to have drunk divine water and pasted divine runes, and they were invulnerable, and they were also brave and abnormal.
The number of people did not have an advantage, which made Dong Zhuolian lose the battle, and at this moment he was trapped by Zhang Jiao's army.
Zhang Jiao was standing on the high post at the moment, and when he saw the main force of the Han army, he was about to be completely wiped out by himself, and great things would happen in the future. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Seeing that the army could not be attacked for a long time, Zhang Jiao frowned. He lit a spell and drew a talisman and recited the mantra: "Lei Gong help me!" ”
I saw a black gas falling from the sky, flying sand and rocks for a while, and the wind and thunder were loud. In this black mist, golden light flashed, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals wearing yellow scarves came in the black mist.
And this group of yellow turbans, seeing that there are heavenly soldiers to help them fight, are overjoyed and their morale is greatly boosted.
A majestic man flashed out of the banner of the Han army, but seeing this person's fat body, tiger eyes and square face, and a fierce face, "This demon is really hateful." He pointed to Zhang Jiao, who was dressed in a Taoist robe on the hill, "Those who take the head of this demon path will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and sealed ten thousand households." ”
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and Xiliang Tieqi also put life and death aside at this moment, and launched several large-scale charges.
However, they were all repelled by the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals summoned by Zhang Jiao, and more than half of the casualties were killed in the charge, and in the end they could only retreat and fight the trapped beasts.
Zhang Jiao was excited when he saw this, and shouted: "Even the famous Xiliang Iron Cavalry is not my opponent, poor Zhang Jiao, please go to the death!" ”
Although Zhang Jiao was on the high post, and the shouting of killing below shook the sky, every word he said was like thunder, exploding above everyone's heads, and it really reached the point of deafening.
Dong Zhuo's army was panicking, and suddenly the black qi dissipated, the wind and thunder stopped, and the group of heavenly soldiers and generals disappeared.
Those Yellow Turban soldiers didn't think about it, how could this be, and they were stunned on the battlefield for a while.
Zhang Jiao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that the spell was invalid. Hurriedly recited the mantra, but only the breeze was gentle, and it just couldn't become the climate.
Dong Zhuo took this opportunity to quickly command his sergeants and fight to the death.
And Zhang Jiao on the high post, threw away the staff in his hand, slowly knelt on the ground, his hands up, and shouted to the sky: "Oh my God! Isn't there enough to count the big man? ”
After shouting, Zhang Jiao spewed out a mouthful of blood mist and immediately fell to the ground. Left and right hurriedly stepped forward to help, at this moment, Zhang Jiao had already woken up.
At this time, Zhang Liang gathered about 100,000 troops in the land of Qing, Xu, Yan and Yu, and Huangfu Song led 30,000 soldiers and horses to fight, and the war was quite unfavorable.
However, it was said that Liu Guanzhang and the three of them, after coming to Xuzhou, went straight to Xiapi County, and came to the vicinity of Quyang in a few days.
Guan Yu suddenly felt a murderous aura, and faintly heard the sound of drums shouting and killing, so he said to Liu Bei: "Big brother, it seems that there is a large army fighting nearby. ”
After hearing this, Liu Bei said: "I'm afraid it's General Huangfu Song, who is killing the Yellow Turban thieves." ”
After that, he took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to find a high post and observe the place where the battle was fought.
I saw that the Han army was defeated and fled, and the overwhelming Yellow Turban Army was chasing after them. On the flag of the commander of the army in the yellow scarf, four big characters were written: "General Rengong".
Guan Yu saw very clearly that it was Huangfu Song who was defeated by the Yellow Turban Army and fled.
He said to Liu Bei: "Big brother, this is indeed the new defeat of General Huangfu, and if you go to answer it at this time, you will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory." ”
When Liu Bei heard him say this, he had no objections, and led the troops to take advantage of the situation to rush and kill, and went straight to Zhang Liang's army.
When the two armies were about to be handed over, Zhang Fei shouted loudly, and the sound was heard for several miles, and the ears of the yellow scarf near the left were ringing, and his eyes were full of gold stars.
Zhang Fei rushed left and right in the army, as if entering a no-man's land, and went straight to the Chinese army. Frightened, Zhang Liang hurriedly sent his generals to stop him, but Zhang Fei stabbed him to death one after another, and there was no one to join him.
And at this moment, Guan Yu, the Qinglong Glaive Knife cut out the Dao Crescent, and the surrounding Yellow Turban Army was stained with death, touching death.
Guan Yu was among the enemy troops, galloping vertically and horizontally, shuttling back and forth, but no one dared to stop him.
He didn't look for the Chinese army, but clashed back and forth in the enemy's ranks. This good battle formation actually made a mess for him.
The arrival of Liu Guan and Zhang made the Yellow Turban Army chaotic, and Zhang Liang was afraid that Zhang Fei would be injured, so he hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of the army.
Huangfu Song did not dare to take advantage of the situation to pursue, so Mingjin withdrew his troops and joined Liu Guanzhang.
When the army was stationed, Liu Guanzhang came to Huangfu Song's tent, only to hear him say: "Fortunately, Xuande arrived in time, otherwise I would have followed in the footsteps of General Lu Zhi." ”
Huangfu Song also felt that saying this at this time would only make everyone unhappy. Then he said to them: "Since Xuande has come, then we will find a way to destroy the enemy and destroy the thieves in the future." ”
After discussion, Huangfu Song and Liu Bei jointly decided to lure the enemy into a sneak attack.
The next day, Huangfu Song took Guan Yu to call for battle, Liu Bei led the headquarters to ambush on the left, and Zhang Fei led 5,000 Han troops to ambush on the right.
Huangfu Song fought with the Yellow Turban Army, and it didn't take long for the troops to retreat. Therefore, many previous battles were like this, Zhang Liang was used to it, and he did not suspect him, so he led the army to chase directly.
When turning a hill, a drum sounded, Liu Bei killed from the left, Zhang Fei killed from the right, the Yellow Turban Army knew that it was an ambush, and the army was immediately in turmoil. Guan Yu slapped his horse forward, cut down when he met someone, and killed a thief when he saw it. directly killed the Yellow Turban Army.
Huangfu Song took advantage of the situation to lead the army to cover up, with Guan Yu as the sword edge, directly into the Yellow Turban army, and went straight to the Chinese army.
At this moment, the two wings of the Yellow Turban Army were attacked, the strikers were broken, and everything was a mess. Zhang Liang saw that the situation was not good, and quickly fled.
Guan Yu had already come to the vicinity of the Chinese army, and after seeing Zhang Liang escape, he bent his bow and set up an arrow, and an arrow hit him in the heart. Before Guan Yu could put away his bow, a horse flew out quickly from behind him, and after coming to Zhang Liang's side, a sword owl slashed his head.
I saw that at this moment, Huangfu Song carried Zhang Liang's head and shouted loudly: "Zhang Liang has been killed by me, why don't you surrender quickly." If there is resistance, you will not be spared! ”
In an instant, there was chaos in the Yellow Turban Army, and the rest of the people had no intention of fighting and surrendered one after another. After these yellow turbans surrendered, Huangfu Song ordered his sergeants to behead all the prisoners of war, leaving no one, and then put the heads of all the enemy soldiers to build a view of Beijing.
When everyone came to the Huangfu Song tent, he smiled and said to Liu Bei: "Fortunately, with the help of your sergeant, an arrow hit Zhang Liang's shoulder socket, otherwise I would not have been able to do this miraculous feat." ”
Zhang Fei was about to have a seizure after hearing this, but he was pinched by Guan Yu on the side, and he was speechless for a while.
Not long after, Guan Yu found an opportunity and pulled Zhang Fei out of the tent.
Soon, Liu Bei also found a reason to leave Huangfu Song's tent and found two righteous brothers.
Zhang Fei said angrily: "Second brother spared his life to ensure that he won this great victory." I clearly saw that it was the second brother who shot Zhang Liang in the heart with an arrow and took his life. I didn't expect this Huangfu Songtai to be shameless, and he actually snatched the head of the corpse and risked such a big achievement! If I don't kill him, I won't be able to vent the hatred in my heart! ”
After shouting, he was about to go to Huangfu Song's tent, but Liu Bei and Guan Yu hurriedly pulled him down.
Liu Bei said: "He is a general appointed by the imperial court, we killed him, didn't he all become sinners?" ”
Guan Yu also persuaded: "It's for the sake of my brother, you can let me and my eldest brother finish talking before making a decision." ”
Zhang Fei stopped after hearing this, and said with a deep breath in his mouth: "Even if I don't kill him, I don't want to listen to orders under his account." If the two brothers are still here, then I'll go to the others! ”
Liu Bei said: "The three of us brothers, who live and die together, how can we be easily separated? You listen to your second brother first. ”
Zhang Fei heard him say this, and only then did he stop slightly.
Guan Yu said at this moment: "Actually, my eldest brother and I have long had the intention of going elsewhere. Although I am not rare in this merit of killing Zhang Liang, this Huangfu Song risked his own merits, which is unjust; After that, he killed 100,000 prisoners of war, which was extremely unkind; Such an unkind and unrighteous person. If we are still in his army, he knows that he has taken the risk of taking advantage of the merits, and in the future, he will inevitably cause harm to the people. Shicai didn't let you kill him, because he didn't want you and my brother to become like the three brothers Zhang Jiao. ”
Liu Bei continued: "I also thought the same as your second brother, just now I was in the tent and found an excuse to leave. When we gather our troops and horses, we will go to General Zhu Jun and help him defeat Zhang Bao. ”
