Chapter 985: Sticking to each other

"Our soldiers, so many casualties?"

"About 30% of them were killed? Serious injuries and need to recuperate, also more than one percent? ”

An hour later, Sun Jian led the soldiers to wipe out all the 100,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers who were not afraid of death, but he heard such a shocking news.

This is because Bo was killed by himself first, and those Yellow Turban wrestlers have no main formation and command.

Otherwise, in this battle, most of the soldiers on their own side may be killed or wounded.

Sun Jian only felt a pang of grief in his heart, and the previous joy was completely gone.

Fortunately, he completely annihilated Bocai's elite along the way, and also killed Bocai with his own hands and obtained his head.

Otherwise, it's a big loss.

"Report to Zuo Sima, General Huangfu Song asked you to quickly lead the army, turn back to the twenty miles in front of the south gate, and join him!"

"General Zhu Jun and several of his leading generals had an accident and were killed by an unknown enemy!"

At this time, a small group of heralds hurriedly rode horses and galloped over, conveying Huangfu Song's latest military orders.

Now on the battlefields, the battles have basically subsided, but Sun Jian was stunned when he heard such incredible news.

"What?"

After he came back to his senses, he was very anxious and said to the herald squad leader, "General Zhu Jun's subordinates are all elite soldiers, how could he be killed by the enemy?" ”

"That's two million elite soldiers!"

He was pulled up by Zhu Jun, not to mention whether he had true feelings for him, but Zhu Jun was indeed Sun Jian's destined nobleman.

In the established history, after Sun Jian quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion with Zhu Jun, he accumulated military merits and was promoted to Changsha Taishou, which quickly stabilized his foundation and thus rose.

"The news is unequivocal."

The captain of the herald squad replied solemnly.

"Order, the whole army returns!"

Sun Jian was in a trance, and he was furious.

The biggest noble person he has met in his life was actually killed by an unknown enemy, this is a real life-and-death enemy, and he must pay for it with blood!

Zu Mao, Huang Gai, Sun Ce and others, seeing Sun Jian's angry eyes, where did they dare to slacken?

Only half an hour passed, and the battlefield was cleaned in a hurry, leaving 100,000 lightly injured soldiers to take care of those who were seriously injured, Sun Jian led about 500,000 soldiers and horses, and with that small group of heralds, he quickly turned around and galloped away.

After experiencing this battle, the cavalry under his command has increased a lot, about 10,000 or so, which can be regarded as an additional gain from this war.

Although there are not many cavalry in the Yellow Turban Army, there are some.

After all, since they raised their banners to rebel, they have captured so many towns and towns and the villages and forts of small and medium-sized wealthy families, and harvested countless horses, cattle, sheep and other livestock.

Although there are not many Jiaolin horses and dragon scale horses among them, there are many one-star best war horses, and there are more than one million of them.

This is the case in the Central Plains and the southern region, high-quality war horse spirit beasts are very rare, so there are few elite cavalry in formation.

Even the Cao family and the Yuan family have such a deep background, and the number of their elite cavalry does not exceed 500,000.

The elite cavalry directly under the imperial court, combined, is only about 10 million, and there are very few three-star spirit beast war horses, less than 10,000.

There are even fewer four-star spirit beast war horses, less than ten.

In this regard, not to mention Wang Qiang at this time, even Dong Zhuo, Han Sui, Ma Teng in Liangzhou, and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, just in terms of war horses, it is enough to crush the imperial court and various wealthy families.

These forces entrenched in the northern border of the Han Dynasty are not stupid, and they will not let too many high-quality war horse spirit beasts flow into other forces.

And the best kind of war horse spirit beasts are basically left by themselves, and they will not trade with the outside world at all.

Those Hu people of all races, the same, good war horse spirit beasts, rarely sold to the outside world.

Moreover, the spirit beast war horses traded with the Han people were all castrated, and they had no ability to reproduce at all.

Sun Jian's face was gloomy, and he led his 300,000 soldiers without saying a word, and after half an hour, he returned to the place where Huangfu Song ordered to assemble.

This is the original place where the Yellow Turban Army used to store grain, but now it has basically been burned by the fire, and everywhere it looks, it is scorched black.

The north wind has not stopped, blowing all the dust on the ground, blowing everywhere, even the clear sky looks gray.

You can imagine how much grain and grass were piled up here.

No need to calculate, that's an astronomical amount.

"General, Sun Jian came to report."

"This is the head of the thief's first wave of talent, and his people and the 100,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers under his command have all been killed by our army!"

In any case, this cost nearly half of the soldiers the death and injury of the soldiers, and the great merit must be reported first.

Otherwise, the death of nearly half of his soldiers would be too worthless.

"Well, that's good."

Huangfu Song's gloomy face showed a hint of joy.

The head of the thief and the head of 100,000 yellow turban wrestlers finally washed away some of the anxiety in his heart.

"Wentai, this time you and Benchu, Highway, Meng De and others have made great achievements, I will truthfully report to the imperial court, and the reward should come down soon."

Seeing that the last army had turned around, Huangfu Song motioned to the clerk on the side to take Bocai's head away to deal with the packing, and then looked at the generals in front of him and said, "Originally, the destruction of the main force of the Yellow Turban Army this way is a great joy, and we can also give an account to Your Majesty." ”

"But General Zhu Jun's sacrifice was an accident, which greatly reduced our merits."

"The thief who killed General Zhu Jun and them is now protecting at least 200 million remnants of the Yellow Turban, and has retreated into a huge valley sixty miles southeast of Lailai."

"Moreover, they actually used a set of four-star supreme magic weapon array flags to block the entrance to the valley, and we couldn't attack it at all!"

"These chaotic parties, I don't know where they came from, not only rescued about 200 million Yellow Turban thieves, but also took most of the property and spiritual materials obtained by the Yellow Turban Army to that big valley."

"I have ordered that the elite army of four million imperial courts be blocked outside the entrance to that valley."

"But, I'm curious, is there so much food in there, enough for so many Yellow Turban remnants?"

He was a little confused.

So many remnants of the Yellow Turbans composed of tenants and homeless people who were swept by the Yellow Turbans consumed a huge amount of grain and grass every day.

Even if it is the Han Dynasty, if it wants to supply their consumption, it will take a lot of energy to be able to raise it.

When they retreated into that great valley, did they not kill themselves?

However, is it a fool that the other party can easily kill Zhu Jun and hundreds of core soldiers in the army with one sword?

"General, could it be that they have that incomparably precious four-star teleportation array flag in their hands?"

Cao Cao didn't think so, and said worriedly.

That kind of legendary treasure is not even more than ninety percent of the wealthy families, and their Cao family and Xiahou family do not have it.

But just because you don't have it doesn't mean that others don't.

It is said that in the hands of the royal family, there is a set of four-star superb alphabet teleportation array flags, which is one of the treasures of the town palace.

Moreover, I heard that the Hedong Wei family also has a set, and the Sima family also has a set.

Of course, this is left by their ancestors Wei Qing and Sima Guang.

Therefore, although the Wei family and the Sima family are low-key, their background will not be much worse than other top families.

Even Cai Yong, a famous man who was only one step away from entering the realm of Confucianism, heard that he also had the intention of marrying the Hedong Wei family.

This is not Cai Yong, who has no children under his knees, is looking for a way back for the Cai family, and wants to find a reliable husband for his baby daughter Cai Yan.

I heard that Cai Yan is a real strange woman, famous all over the world, a child of a family in the world, and a coveted peerless beauty.

Even Cao Cao was moved, and let people test Cai Yong's tone, but he was politely refused.

However, now that the party has been lifted, Cai Yong has received an order from the imperial court, and it seems that he is going to return to Beijing to take up his post, and he may not be able to see the beautiful woman.

It can be said that Cai Yan is the dream lover of Cao Cao and many other children of the family, and this mother is undoubted.

In the established history, after Cao Cao won most of the world, he still tried his best to redeem Cai Yan from the hands of Liu Bao from the Southern Xiongnu and spent a huge price, but he did not have a different kind of mind.

"Four-star magic weapon teleportation array flag?"

After hearing this, Yuan Shu shook his head and said, "That kind of treasure, how precious? How can there be a rebel who is not well known? ”

He is not the legendary straw bag at all, but a child of a family with both civil and military skills, and he is not as arrogant as later generations rumored.

However, the four-star magic weapon-level teleportation array flag can only be refined by a four-star superb refining master, and the materials are precious, and the success rate of refining is extremely low.

That kind of treasure, even their Yuan family, took a lot of effort to get a set for thousands of years, and it immediately became one of the treasures of the Yuan family.

Therefore, his assertion is not unfounded, and it is not nonsense.

"But ......"

Cao Cao said worriedly, "That mysterious person, with a single sword, can kill General Zhu Jun of the second layer of the God Refining Realm and several core generals of the second and third layers of the God Refining Realm, it is completely impossible to look at it with common sense!" ”

"How have we ever heard of this fierce general who is at least the seventh layer of the God Refining Realm before?"

"This world is too mysterious, and there are many hidden masters among them, we have to be cautious!"

His suspicion is very serious, and he has to guess everything from all aspects, and he doesn't agree with what Yuan Shu said.

As long as the other party is not a fool, how can he retreat into the land of death with a huge number of tenants and refugees?

And a super-first-class general of that level, would he be a fool?

According to the reports of the generals under Zhu Jun, the original purpose of the other party was just to let Zhu Jun let go of the refugees in the Yellow Turban Army who were not qualified soldiers at all.

It was only after being rejected by Zhu Jun and trying to recruit the other party that he was killed by the other party with a knife.

Hearing Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, each holding their own words, everyone was also hesitant, and the scene fell into a short silence.
