Light and 6th year, August 20th.

The Taishan army and the Yellow Turban finally went north.

These days of repairing supplies in Yingyang. Although the Taishan army was mainly stationed in the original Han camp barrier, it was still in accordance with the military code, and the four mouths of the polder were all set up in the main roads on the periphery. Although it was unlikely that the Han army would turn back to attack the Taishan army again, Zhang Chong, who had always been cautious in the use of troops, decided to arrange it in this way to stifle the potential offensive line of the Han army.

At the same time, in the days of renovation, the Taishan army was strictly disciplined, did not plunder the township, did not kill the people, only systematically confiscated the property of the township tycoons, and distributed the seized floating wealth to the people. The slogan of Taishan Army to do the right thing for heaven and punish the guilty is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in this series of practical actions.

The fact that so many heroes defected to the Taishan Army this time also has a lot to do with the strict discipline of the Taishan Army itself. Too many Qianshou who couldn't survive defected to the Taishan army, and thousands of them filled the roads every day. In the face of the Taishan army, the local townsmen fled first. The above positive and negative made the Taishan army blazing in the central area of Yingchuan.

Generally speaking, these newly defected heroes will not be able to enter the battle sequence of the Taishan Army from the beginning. On the one hand, they are not familiar with it yet, and they dare not leave their backs or hearts to them. On the other hand, these new defectors are often not strong in combat and cannot go into battle directly.

So like Luo Gang and Pan Zhangbu, who were recruited in Puyang before, they are still training in Puyang.

But this time, the Taishan army did not refuse to come, and directly selected its elite to train four battalion heads and 2,000 soldiers. The reason is very simple, Zhang Chong does not have enough troops now, and he must quickly put up the shelf, otherwise he will suffer a loss when he joins forces with Ma Yuanyi and He Yi.

But even so, the four businesses compiled by Zhang Chong are not simple, and they are all a bit of a mouthful.

One is the Yingyang battalion, and the battalion will be the local heroes who came to take refuge. It is said that he is the descendant of Yingyang Hou Ma Fang, but in the Yingyang territory, there are not a thousand, there are also eight hundred, he is now a powerful iron official apprentice, after the dust of the battle of Yingyang settled, he killed the official and took six hundred iron official slaves to Zhang Chong.

The second is the Xiangcheng battalion, and the battalion will be the Xiangcheng ranger Li Jing. His people took advantage of the chaos to rise up, and after being defeated by the local wealthy Li clan, they took the remaining 400 people to Taiping Road.

The rest are the two battalions on the left and right of Bicheng, and the battalion generals are Xu Zhong and Chen Guang respectively. They are all the rangers of Bicheng, and when they see the majestic Taishan Army, they come to fight for a future.

In addition to expanding the four battalions, the Taishan army was also digesting the prisoners of the Han army.

Most of the officers in the Han army's infantry cavalry, Zhang Chong was useless, but continued to stay by his side as an auxiliary soldier of the rampage. These people have the color of family and country, and their interests are highly consistent with those of the Han court, even if they surrender to Zhang Chong, Zhang Chong is still useless for the purity of the army.

But the remaining Han soldiers, Zhang Chong absorbed them vigorously. A total of 1,000 cavalry and 1,000 armor soldiers were absorbed. Among them, 800 of the 1,000 cavalry were the Han cavalry who were forced to surrender in the original battle of Changshe, in other words, in this Yingyang battle, the Han cavalry surrendered less than 200 in total, which shows the fierce consumption of the Han cavalry in this battle.

The two thousand troops were close to Zhang Chong's main force in terms of numbers, making the strength of Zhang Chong's hands almost halved. For most of the time they stayed in Yingyang, the officers of the Taishan Army were familiar with these new recruits, not to mention much trust, but at least they had to be familiar. ….

Absorbing so many surrendered troops, isn't Zhang Chong worried about problems? Of course, there are concerns. But Zhang Chong made three preparations.

On the one hand, the troops were disorganized and added to the battalions under his command. On the one hand, he ordered the army to preach and preach the policy of the Taishan Army, whether it was the holy treasury system or the temptation of dividing the land in the future, it was quite attractive to the Han soldiers who were born in poverty. Finally, Zhang Chong had also ordered Zhang Dan's army stationed in Fengqiu to move west and join him in Xingyang. At that time, the two armies will have more than 10,000 troops, and the ratio of these 2,000 surrendered troops will not be exaggerated.

When the Taishan Army and Ru Ying's two Yellow Turbans went north. The number of troops is as follows. Among them, the main force of the Taishan Army is 6,000, the cavalry army is 2,000, the infantry army is 4,000, and the new annex army is 2,000. Then there were 18,000 old battalions of the rear army, doing the work of carrying heavy carts. Originally, Zhang Chong's mules and donkeys to the south had been issued to the old camp as animal power for the baggage carts.

And the Runan Yellow Turban He Yi Department has a military strength of 8,000, of which 6,000 are strong and dare to fight, which is a part of its own. The last one is Ma Yuanyi's Yingchuan remnants, with a military strength of 10,000

The number of medium-energy fighters is also roughly on the scale of 6,000. In other words, the Taishan Army, the Runan Army, and the Yingchuan Army were roughly equal in strength. This gave both Ma Yuanyi and He Yi a certain sense of security.

Then the two armies of Ruying also followed the crowd, and there were about 10,000 people in total. Therefore, according to the last statistics, the total number of the three Yellow Turban armies in Aocang in the north is close to 50,000.

With such a large-scale march, it is natural that the momentum is extraordinary. Twenty miles along the way, the apricot yellow flag is displayed, and the golden iron armor is cold. But the commanders of the three armed forces are worried.

Just because of one thing: there is not much food.

Earlier, the Ruying Yellow Turban was already short of food. Previously, Peng Tuo fought a decisive battle in advance, because the whole army only had enough to eat for another ten days. And the Taishan army galloped for hundreds of miles, bringing only a sufficient number of rations, and did not bring any food. Fortunately, the Han army had enough food at that time. A few days before the war, a shipment of military rations had just arrived from the rear.

However, after the defeat of the Han army, there was no food supply in, and after the military rations of the barrier were distributed to the two armies of Ruying, most of them were expanded and captured. Therefore, at that time, the grain reserve was only enough for about 20 days.

Before, in order to raise grain. The three parts of the Yellow Turbans sent troops to Sixiang to attack the dock wall and plunder food. But this does not solve the problem fundamentally, and can only maintain the supply for a short time.

In order to solve this problem, it is essential to break through one or two Han army cities, so as to obtain large-scale supplies.

After discussing with Ma Yuanyi and He Yi, Zhang Chong decided to fight Changshe again.

Now that the three armed services are conducting joint operations, the military command naturally has to be discussed by the three of them. But in fact, whether it is Ma Yuanyi or He Yi, they all know that in terms of military strategy, no matter how proud they are, they can't compare to Zhang Chong, the general of the sky. After all, Zhang Chong's past achievements are there. So generally, as long as what Zhang Chong said is reasonable and well-founded, these two people will be able to listen to Zhang Chong's advice.

The same is true for this time. On the one hand, the Thai-Henan coalition army was indeed short of food, and Changshe was attacked several times by the previous Bocai, but the city was not broken, and there must be a lot of savings in the city. On the other hand, the Taishan Army needs a strategic environment that can be attacked and retreated.

The Taiyu Yellow Turban is indeed going north to Aocang, but not to die. The Changshe is located below Xingyang, and if you want to go north to Xingyang, this Changshe is the only way to go. If this city is not captured, the Han army here can completely contact the remnants of the main Han army in Yang Zhai to attack the Taiyu Yellow Turban from the rear. ….

When the time comes, they will be attacked by the Han army in front of Xingyang, and then they will be attacked by the Han army, which will be very dangerous.

For this reason, the long society must also be brought down, and it has to leave a way back for itself.

Moreover, it is now a window period, and the current situation in Yuzhou is generally favorable to Zhang Chong.

At present, in Yuzhou, the entire front-line Han army includes, the left Zhonglang generals, the right Zhonglang generals, the Han soldiers of various counties and counties, and the heroic and powerful tribes, and there are more than 50,000 people, of which the heroic and powerful troops account for half, which is worthy of being the core hinterland of the empire.

But these military forces were helpless for a while. Zuo Zhonglang will be unable to govern Huangfu Song, and the imperial court has sent a new commander south to Yangzhai to preside over the work. Before the coach arrived and the various departments were run in and trained, it was difficult for his troops to intercept Zhang Chong.

And Zhu Jungang, the general of the right middle lang, was reprimanded by the center of the Han court, and ordered him to quickly join the left middle general. But Zhu Jun has his own plans. He thought that his strategy of going south to Runan was very good, and he was directly inserted into the waist of the Yellow Turban Army.

He worked with Wang Yun, the Taishou of Yuzhou, in Runan, to mobilize the Yuan clan and the Zhou clan in Ruyang; Shang Cai Huan's house; Song Gong Kong; Shao Ling Chen; Zhengqiang Fan; Pingyu Chen, Xu, Liao, Dai; Anseong Zhou; Nanton Ying; Xiyang Zhang; Xiping Lee; Period Si Sun's.

Which of these powerful families is not two thousand stones, which one is not thousands of servants, and there are hundreds of people. As soon as the armed forces were mobilized slightly, only in Runan, more than 10,000 strong troops were accumulated, and with the main force of more than 10,000 Han troops in Zhu Jun's headquarters, they were directly like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and the Yellow Turbans of Runan that remained behind were defeated.

In just half a month after going south, Zhu Jun had already captured and killed 20,000 Yellow Turbans, and captured countless cattle and millet mouths. Moreover, this offensive directly mobilized Yingyang's Runan Yellow Turban to move south, which greatly reduced the pressure on the Huangfu Song Department on the Yangzhai side. So he played Chen Shangshu, please stay in Runan, and drive all the way. However, for Zhang Chong, Zhu Junbu had no chance because he had to face Huang Shao, who came south

Attack him from behind. So this ministry is also abolished.

So for a while, the only people who had the opportunity to cause trouble to Zhang Chong were the local soldiers and horses of Changshe. But what is the use of those helps?

On August 20, 50,000 troops of Taiyu marched north, and on the 24th, they besieged Changshe.

The Zhong clan and the Han clan of Changshe fought together with the county magistrate of Changshe, but after only three days, Changshe City was captured. Several members of the Taishan Army will go upstairs first, and Ma Bao, the general of the Yingyang battalion, will kill the county lieutenant of Changshe and win the first battle.

In this battle, except for a few children, the Zhong and Han families were wiped out by the Taishan army. But although the two families resisted the Taishan army, Zhang Chong did not slaughter his family. Not only that, Zhang Chong also specially invited two family heads, Zhong Yu and Han Rong. The reason why this is so is because one of them has something to do with the general religion, and one of their families is kind to the people of Taishan.

Here's how to say it.

Zhong Yu is Zhong Xuan's father, but more importantly, they are party members, to be honest, they have something to do with Taiping Road, there is a high-level person named Zhong Xian in Taiping Road, Hebei, and the position is sacrificing wine. And this person is a member of the Zhong clan, so Zhang Chong did not torture the Zhong clan.

And Han Rong is even more different. His father's name is Han Shao, and when Gongsun Ju Dakui was in Taishan 20 years ago, Han Shao was the county magistrate. At that time, there were chaos and fluctuations, and many people fled to Yingxian. When he was about to starve to death, it was Han Shao who risked killing his head to open a warehouse and release grain, saving countless people. Now many people in the Taishan Army are after the victims who were rescued twenty years ago, so everyone still remembers the life-saving grace of the year. ….

But the other wealthy families in the city did not have this treatment, and they were used by the Taishan army to confiscate their family property.

The seizure of Changshe greatly enriched the inventory of the Thai-Henan coalition forces. Moreover, Ru Ying's yellow scarf shouted after watching the smooth and rhythmic siege and torture process of the Taishan army. In their minds, the prestige of the Taishan Army has been greatly enhanced.

With this long war, the cohesion of the three armies has improved a lot.

After resting for a while and replenishing supplies, Zhang Chong left Chen Huan as the guard of Changshe, and then continued to go north with the army and the clansmen of the Zhong and Han families, and soon left the boundary of Yuzhou and headed towards the headquarters of the Sili school.

Their next stop was Xinzheng.

-----------

The Taishan army is attacking like a tiger over there, what is the Han army doing here?

Didn't do anything! Dry waiting.

Of course, this is also not exact. As early as when the Taiyu Yellow Turban joint forces went north, Cao Cao, who was in Yangzhai, suggested that Zhao Rong, who was temporarily in charge of the military strategy, send troops to attack, and not let the thieves go north.

However, Zhao Rong reprimanded Cao Cao, the general of the defeated army, and did not take Cao Cao's advice.

In fact, Zhao Rong knew what the purpose of the Taishan army was to go north. The strategy of the Taishan Army is too clear, and the generals with a little military talent know that the Taishan Army is going north to fight Xingyang. And as soon as Xingyang is broken, the grain road of the Hebei Han army will be broken, and it is really difficult to say how much that side will survive at that time.

But knowing is knowing, Zhao Rong can't help it. Doesn't he want to fight? Doesn't he want to be the hero of the Han family who turns the tide? It's that he really can't do it.

From the Yingyang battlefield, a total of three armies of the five armies were able to retreat to Yangzhai, and one of them was afraid of being held accountable because of the earliest withdrawal from the battlefield, so he did not dare to merge with Zhao. In addition, the morale of the whole army was not high, and it would be good to be able to hold the passage to Kyoto, but it was really difficult to mobilize them to fight.

Of course, there are thousands of reasons not to send troops, and there is only one reason to want to send troops. If it is Cao Cao, no matter how difficult the situation is, as long as it is beneficial to the overall situation, he will work hard. But Zhao Rong can't do it, so many of the above reasons are just his shirk, in the final analysis, this person is just a follower, and he doesn't have much responsibility.

But he refused Cao Cao's suggestion here, and Cao Cao stabbed him there.

He didn't know what method he used, but he actually bewitched Bao Hong, the captain of the left army, and asked him to go east to Changshe, intending to intercept the Taishan army.

Bao Hong, the captain of the left army, was the first to withdraw from the battlefield that day, he was worried about being held accountable, and he could not seek stability like Zhao Rong, so he set off with 4,000 people under Cao Cao's chest and assurance.

Cao Cao said that as long as this battle can be stopped, even as long as it can be intercepted by advancing westward

, he used his relationship to intercede for Bao Hong, and when the time came, not only would he not be guilty, but he would also be meritorious.

When the generals are not moving forward, only you Bao Hong are loyal warriors, indomitable, facing difficulties, aren't you an upright loyal minister?

Chapter 123: Departure

I don't know how long it took, a branch of the World Tree was slowly devoured by the two, leaving only a small piece of material the size of a fist to be preserved, Li Mu thought that maybe there was a possibility of becoming a clone, after all, it was about to become the existence of the World Tree, leaving some flesh and blood materials that might be used in the future.

After devouring it, the two men immediately stood up and moved their hands and feet.

Li Mu stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the four directions, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

The opportunity to get this time is indeed too big and too big, not to mention the chaos magic weapons that are difficult to find in the world, such as the World Mountain and the Chaos Ancient Palace, even if these things are seen by the small tower, they will roll on the ground in distress and wail.

Li Mu estimated that the current value of the life gene level should be about 3,000 times the life gene level, which is close to 20 times the increase, which is shocking.

If it is devouring the starry sky world, the 3,000-fold life gene level is the best in special lifeforms, and very few living beings can reach this level, and all of them are the darlings of the entire universe.

"Let's go, little brat!" Li Mu said that the biggest opportunity in the Ancient Treasure Realm was basically obtained by Li Mu, and there was nothing to remember.

"Well, let's go!" Shi Hao said happily, this time the benefits he got were not small, not only successfully repaired the Supreme Bone, but also devoured a lot of the divine essence of the World Tree, and the benefits he got were massive.

"Big brother, where are you going next?" Out of the Ancient Treasure Realm, Shi Hao asked.

"Maybe I'll go to the Upper Realm! I don't know where I've gone!" Li Mu said calmly.

"Big brother, why don't you go to our stone village as a guest!" Shi Hao tried to speak.

"Your village?" Li Mu was puzzled.

"Well, our village is very nice, big brother, you will definitely like it!" Shi Hao sincerely invited.

"Anyway, there's nothing to do right now, so it's better to go to Ishimura and have fun!" Li Mu thought for a moment and nodded.

"Big brother, let's go!"

"Let's go!"

The two of them instantly turned into rainbow light, escaped into the void, and disappeared in a flash.

Three days later, Li Mu and Shi Hao returned to the wasteland and came to Shicun, the place where Shi Hao grew up.

At the head of the village, a willow god takes root, hundreds of willow branches hang down, swaying green glow, swirling in mist, sacred and peaceful, it is the willow god who explores the return of the original gate.

Next to it is a clear lake infested with small luanbirds, with bright feathers, haunted among the water and grass, and the unicorns on the shore are flocked, all silver-white, flashing bright, and not afraid of people.

Nearby, there are various other spirit birds and beasts, and a village is located here, like a paradise, which makes people's hearts calm down all of a sudden.

Under the big willow tree, there is also a gray native chicken, which is pacing slowly, finding a comfortable position and nesting there.

"Ah, Yanagigami, I'm back!" Seeing Liu Shen return safely, Shi Hao shouted excitedly, and his loud voice broke the tranquility of the mountain village, and the whole village was alarmed.

"Hahaha, I'm back!" Everyone cheered and shouted, and the children were dancing and jumping around, extremely excited, because they knew that every time Shi Hao came back, there would be all kinds of delicious and fun food.

In the village, all the houses are made of stone, with a primitive look, full of simplicity, but also a sense of tranquility.

The villagers stood at the head of the village to welcome their return.

Li Mu followed Shi Hao into Shi Village, and was also warmly welcomed, the quaint villagers, without too much thought, very simple, since they are Shi Hao's friends, they are their friends, of course, they have to be warmly entertained.

In this way, Li Mu lived in Shicun for a few days, and during this period, he also met many people, such as the Vermilion Bird and the hairy monkey Zhu Yan......

Seven days later, at the head of Shicun Village, Li Mu was saying goodbye to Shi Hao, and Shi Hao was very reluctant in his eyes.

"Little brat, I'm leaving, there is a feast in the world, let's meet again!"

"Big brother, you must take care!"

What kind of changes will it bring to the chaotic battlefield in southeastern Henan?

So people are watching.

Please call me Mr. Chen
