It was noon, and the sun was high.

On the long bluestone ancient road, an army of about tens of thousands of people marched around.

Directly in front of the army, several generals were wearing golden helmets, each looking mighty.

"Lord, this Yellow Turban Rebellion is really an endless disaster. ”

Zhao Yun's expression was a trace of unbearability.

By this time the army had been on its way for three days.

Everyone just walked out of Lujiang County and came to the territory of Runan County.

After entering Runan, the situation was very different.

Everywhere are dilapidated villages left behind by the scourge of the Yellow Turban Uprising.

Indeed, the Yellow Turban Rebellion swept all the way through the Han Dynasty, and everywhere it went, there was no grass growing, and hundreds of people were carried into the Yellow Turban.

This will make their voices even stronger. ”

Hearing Zhao Yun's emotion, Zhou Xuan also nodded in agreement.

The Yellow Turban Rebels are not the same as ordinary armies.

Their main component is the poor people.

There is nothing military in itself.

For them, the military qualities of the soldiers are not enough, so they are piled up with numbers.

As a result, the people they met along the way, whether they wanted to or didn't want to, were forced to join the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

The young and strong fight, and the old and weak are in charge of logistics.

After hearing Zhou Xuan's words, Zhao Yun's expression was shocked.

"In this way, the development speed of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army is too fast, should it really be able to sweep the whole country and overthrow the Han Dynasty. ”

Zhou Xuan laughed when he heard this.

"It's true that the early development is fast, but it has no future. ”

"Oh?"

Zhao Yun sighed lightly.

In terms of cultivation, he has an outstanding talent.

In terms of the art of war and tactics, it is also extraordinary.

However, in terms of looking at the situation, it is still a little weaker, and it needs more training and training.

Therefore, he was studious and spoken.

"I also hope that the lord will explain a thing or two. ”

Seeing that Zhao Yun was so studious, Zhou Xuan was naturally happy to teach him.

After all, he is the starting point, Zhao Yun can grow into a handsome talent, and he can take charge of himself.

It's not just a general, you can only charge into battle.

Zhou Xuan spoke: "Although the Yellow Turban Army is regarded as the leader of the unification, in fact, Zhang Jiao is just a spiritual leader.

The major commanders are still fighting on their own, lacking unified leadership.

This alone is deadly. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yun nodded thoughtfully.

The lack of unified command in the great battlefield that spans the whole country is indeed a big problem.

It's easy to be targeted, and then break through.

"And if the spiritual leader Zhang Jiao dies, it will fall apart immediately.

At that time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was not far from defeat. ”

This point is definitely not that Zhou Xuan is alarmist.

In fact.

In the history of the previous life, it was because of Zhang Jiao's illness and death that the entire Yellow Turban Rebel Army fell apart and finally failed.

"In addition, the officers are from poor backgrounds and lack basic tactical literacy. ”

Zhou Xuan continued to speak: "You have discovered the current Yellow Turban Rebel Army, what is their combat style?"

"Style?"

Zhao Yun frowned.

Then he said with a little question: "Messy?"

Zhou Xuan nodded first, then shook his head again.

"That's just one of them.

Among them, the biggest style of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army is that it does not adopt mobile and flexible tactics as a whole, but is keen to fight tough battles and fight with the officers and soldiers.

This is actually unwise.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army did not have high military quality, and they lacked all kinds of siege equipment.

When they attack a city, they can only fill it with human lives and consume their living strength. ”

Zhao Yun pondered for a moment.

Then he nodded convincingly.

Now the tactics of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army are really like this.

They were keen to take big cities.

Even the county town was breached several times one after another.

"Also, at present, it seems that the Yellow Turban Rebels can increase their numbers with the people, but in fact they have also slowed down the Yellow Turban Army's offensive and increased the logistical pressure.

If the Yellow Turban Rebel Army is unable to overthrow the Han Dynasty in one go, it will definitely be disadvantageous to drag it on.

In the end, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion developed into a later period, there must have been people who were degenerate, obsessed with enjoyment, and did not want to make progress. ”

After listening to Zhou Xuan's analysis, Zhao Yun suddenly realized in his heart.

Originally, the Yellow Turban Uprising was still shrouded in a layer of fog in his heart.

But now, let alone the fog.

Even a piece of clothing was stripped off.

Wherever you think, you can't think about it.

The gaze he looked at Zhou Xuan also changed.

Faintly, the meaning of worship could not be concealed at all.

"I didn't expect the lord to see the situation of the Yellow Turban Rebel Army so thoroughly. ”

Just when Zhao Yun asked Zhou Xuan for advice, a horse suddenly rushed over.

"Report to the general, a group of hundreds of people was found ahead.

They were dressed in the armor of the county soldiers of Runan County, and they should have fled from the rout. ”

"Officers and soldiers who fled?"

Zhou Xuan's eyes flashed.

He asked, "Is there a Yellow Turban rebel army chasing after them?"

"Yes!"

Tanma nodded.

"But the exact number is not clear.

But at least it is estimated that there will be no less than 200,000 troops!"

"Two hundred thousand troops?"

Zhou Xuan's eyes flashed when he heard this.

"Looks like we've met a Yellow Turban Qu Shuai. ”

There are no less than 200,000 troops under his command, which is definitely the size of an army owned by a Qu Shuai.

"I don't know which Yellow Turban Qu Shuai it is?"

Zhou Xuan pondered.

There are only four Yellow Turban Qu Shuai in Runan County.

They are Peng Tuo, Wu Ba, Liu Pi and Gong Du.

Among them, Peng Tuo is the commander of the Daqu in the Nanyang County area, and the Yellow Turban army under his command is at least one million.

Therefore it can be ruled out.

"Is it Wu Ba, or Liu Bi, or Gong Du?"

All three have different personalities.

Zhou Xuan's way of coping will also be different.

"Report!"

Just as Zhou Xuan was thinking, another horse galloped over.

Zhou Xuan came back to his senses and said, "No need to be polite, just tell me." ”

"Whoa!"

Tanma nodded.

Then he spoke eagerly: "We have taken in the hundreds of defeated soldiers, and found the Taishou of Runan County, Lord Zhao Qian, among them.

Lord Zhao Qian was seriously injured and is now dying. ”

"Runan County is too shou Zhao Qian?"

Zhou Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Zhao Qian was an important minister in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although he was too punctual for Runan, he was defeated by the Runan Yellow Turban Army.

But after that, he rose all the way, and even in 190 AD, he became one of the three princes.

After that, he successively served as a series of important positions such as Che Cavalry General, Sili Lieutenant, and former General.

He also had meritorious service in suppressing the Baibo Yellow Turban Army, and was named Pihou for his merits.

Thinking of this, a look of determination flashed in Zhou Xuan's eyes.

"Zhao Qian must be saved.

It's just 200,000 troops, and it's not enough. ”

Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan ordered: "The whole army will speed up and meet the vanguard army!"
