It was May in the blink of an eye, and one month had passed since the last victory of the Yellow Turban Army. This month of peace was created by Cheng Feng. After a month's rest, the Han army regained its fighting strength! On the Jizhou battlefield, Lu Zhi was worried.
"Report to your lord, someone calling himself Liu Bei and Liu Xuande is coming to ask for an audience outside the door!" Lu Zhi was worrying about the defeat. When he suddenly heard the news, he was overjoyed. Liu Bei, his cheap student, still has certain abilities!
"Call in quickly!" Lu Zhi said quickly
"My lord, Liu Bei has come with two thousand troops to help!" Liu Bei saluted as soon as they met.
"Okay, okay, I'm relieved now that Xuande is here!" Lu Zhi said with a smile, "Order Liu Bei as the vanguard officer, and I will give you three thousand more people. You can lead these five thousand people to camp outside the city and become my companions." The power of the horn!"
"Yes, sir!"
"The military situation is urgent, so I won't keep you any longer! I will ask you for credit after the Yellow Turban is broken! Go!" Lu Zhi said
"Yes!" Liu Bei bowed and resigned. Seeing Liu Bei go out, Lu Zhi was overjoyed. With Liu Bei's help, it would not be difficult to break the Yellow Turban. He had a plan, but what he lacked was a strong general!
Just when Liu Bei defected to Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun led Sun Jian to a battle with Bo Cai! The two armies fought, and Zhu Jun happened to trap Bocai three hundred miles south of Runan City. He surrounded him and planned to trap Bocai to death.
"General, Sun Jian is willing to lead his troops to sneak attack on Bocai's grain road!"
"Okay, since Wentai is so brave, I will give you three thousand soldiers and horses, and you can lead the four generals there!" Zhu Jun said with a smile.
"Thank you, sir!" Sun Jian was overjoyed
That night, Sun Jian led his men Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai and Zu Mao and set out quietly under the moonlight. Together with Runan and Bocai, they sent dozens of soldiers to find out the news and waited for the arrival of the grain transport team.
"Boshuai! The army has less than three days of food and supplies. It is up to the commander-in-chief to decide whether to attack or retreat!" Peng Tuo said to Bocai. After the last time the two of them worked together to defeat Zhu Jun, their confidence is now greatly increased. Look at everyone. I want to go up and challenge him! Especially this time against Zhu Jun. He even looked down upon the Han army from the bottom of his heart!
"Zhu Jun still dares to fight? I can't wait any longer. I've let him take advantage of me for a month. It seems it's time to give him another blow!" Bo Cai said with a smile.
"Boshuai, I am willing to lead five thousand troops to raid Zhu Jun's front. Boshuai will lead the troops to cover up and kill him again. Let the people of the Han Dynasty see that we are following God's will!" said a general!
"Okay! Go and order your troops now. You all go! Each of you has five thousand soldiers. Take turns to attack Zhu Jun's left wing and give him a heavy blow. If you can find where Zhu Jun's food and grass are, take away all you can. It's really not possible. , Burn it on the spot!" Bo Cai ordered.
"Yes!" the generals responded.
"Kill!" A cry suddenly came out. Zhu Jun really didn't expect that Bo Cai would suddenly launch an attack. Fortunately, he was ready to make a surprise attack at any time and cooperate with Sun Jian in the battle! Although I was a little surprised, I wasn’t panicked yet! Hurry up and mobilize your troops to fight! Bo Cai originally wanted to make a surprise attack, take advantage, and destroy Zhu Jun's food and fodder, but this time it was better, both sides were prepared! It was really a head-to-head confrontation, and the two sides were fighting for a while! From night to morning, Bocai's troops were attacking in one direction one after another. Zhu Jun was confused at first. After fighting for a few times, he found that they were attacking the left wing. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Bocai is still attacking." What a genius, this kind of fighting style is like an old lady going to the latrine, seeking death!" He quickly mobilized his troops, made a pocket formation, and further ate some of Bocai's troops!
By noon the next day, the soldiers were tired of fighting, and both sides agreed to a ceasefire! Bocai took advantage of the sneak attack and had the upper hand at the beginning. When Zhu Jun set up his formation, both sides suffered damage, and it was a draw!
"Commander Bo, we have lost more than 20,000 troops and horses! But" Peng Tuo glanced at Bo before he stopped talking.
"Say, just what?" Bo Cai was a little unhappy. Zhu Jun was actually prepared for this sudden attack. It seems that the days of peace are gone forever!
"It was just a surprise attack sent by Zhu Jun. Not only did we not find Zhu Jun's food and grass, he also burned half of our food and grass. Now we only have enough for the army for two days!" Peng Tuo said with a bitter smile.
"What? That's unreasonable! It seems we have to hurry up. If we can't repel Zhu Jun, we have to break out of the encirclement and retreat to Runan!" Bo Cai said angrily.
"By the way, Marshal Bo, we didn't even encounter Sun Jian in this battle!" Peng Tuo suddenly said
"Maybe he's guarding food and grass," Bo Cai said disapprovingly.
"No, Sun Jian is extremely brave. He must take the lead in every battle. This time we only attacked in one direction. In the end, Zhu Jun also noticed it and didn't send Sun Jian out. This is a bit intriguing!" Peng Tuo frowned and said
"It's not the right time, maybe it's not here," a general said with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, Bo Cai and Peng Tuo all shouted! The two of them looked at each other, and their hearts skipped a beat at the same time. It was over, the food road was in danger!
At this moment, hundreds of cars were slowly walking on the road, and the cars were full of grain. "Hurry up, hurry up, Bo Shuai is still waiting for our brothers' food!" the leader shouted.
"Commander, do you think we can win this time?" someone asked with a smile.
"A sure win! The Han soldiers are so vulnerable that they are not worth mentioning at all!" the leader said proudly,
"Kill!" The man wanted to ask more questions, but was suddenly startled by the cry of "kill!" What's the situation? Doesn't it mean that the Han's soldiers are vulnerable and not worth mentioning? Why does this look like a wolf and a tiger! It turned out that Sun Jian brought his men to kill. Sun Jian was known as the "Jiangdong Tiger". He had a tiger's back and a bear's waist. This time he brought carefully selected soldiers. He was truly a tiger and wolf warrior! After waiting for a day and a night, hoping for the stars and the moon, the grain transport team finally arrived.
"Come on, it's time to make a great contribution. Brothers, come and fight with me!" Sun Jian shouted
The grain transport soldiers belong to the transportation team, and their combat effectiveness is scum. Looking back now, they are scum with a fighting ability of five! Even many people had never seen this battle, but this time it was better. They were stunned on the spot and lost their lives in vain. The whole process did not take long, and Sun Jian ended the battle.
"Lord, this is too unsatisfactory, why don't we just kill Runan!" Huang Gai said with a smile.
"No! Military orders cannot be followed. It's better to go back and see Mr. Zhu first!" Sun Jiandao
"Lord!" Cheng Pu suddenly said,
"Huh? Does De Mou have anything else to say?" Sun Jian asked curiously, because among this group of people, in terms of bravery, they are not among the best, but when it comes to marching, forming formations, and making plans, Cheng Pu ranks first. Therefore, Sun Jian still has some expectations in his heart!
"Lord! The food and grass of Bocai's army has been robbed, and the morale of the army will definitely be in chaos. It will definitely be defeated by then. The lord can ambush here in advance. There may be gains. In addition, the rebel army is weak. The lord can choose a city early to restore the soldiers. Be prepared for your ambition!" Cheng Pu said
"That makes sense! In this way, Demou escorted half of the grain and grass to Xiapi and handed it over to Ce'er at night. Zu Mao and Huang Gai led troops to ambush here. If there is still a grain transport team, continue the attack. If Bocai's troops are defeated here, Capture them on the spot! The others will take the remaining grain and grass to the camp with me!" Sun Jiandao
"Yes, lord!" Several people responded, and then quickly divided their forces!
"Report! General Sun Jian has returned with a great victory. Bocai's grain and grass have been intercepted. Now General Sun is escorting the grain and grass back to the camp!" the messenger said excitedly, because there has been no such victory for a long time!
"Okay, you are worthy of being a Jiangdong tiger!" Zhu Jun said with great joy
"Brother, Mr. Liu asked us to be the vanguard. Why don't we kill a few of his generals first to shock the army?" Zhang Fei thought for a moment and said to Liu Bei at Liu Bei's military camp in Jizhou.
"Yes, brother, what the third brother said makes sense. We have just arrived and our morale is high. Why not take the opportunity to have a fight!" Guan Yu also said quickly. After all, they are both generals. When they arrive on the battlefield, they can only watch the fight. Then Not to mention how uncomfortable it is!
"Haha, okay, since both brothers think so, let's find a chance to kill him!" Liu Bei said with a smile, his heart full of joy and excitement.
"Report, general, the enemy has made a move!" Just as a few people were gathering together, the messenger came to report.
"Let's go out and take a look!" Liu Bei said with a smile. He really had a pillow when he got sleepy. We are planning to do something, and someone will be killed!
"People across the way, listen, we are Deng Mao, the pioneer officer under General Cheng Zhiyuan's command. Who of you come out to die!" A man in half-armor from the opposite side was heard shouting.
Seeing this posture made Mr. Zhang very angry, "What the hell? He's just like a bear, but he can lead troops to fight. Brother, I'll kill him!"
"Brother, kill him for his arrogance. Look at him like this, he's just a bidder!" Guan Yu couldn't stand it anymore. He saw Deng Mao wearing half-armor, carrying a big sword, sitting crookedly on his horse, showing off his power. Whispering.
"Be careful of fraud. This Yellow Turban Army has been on the battlefield for a long time. Could it be a trick to lure troops by suddenly sending such a thing?" Liu Bei worried.
"It's just a broken soldier, so what if it's a trick?" Zhang Fei said in a loud voice.
"Third brother, don't worry. What the eldest brother said makes sense, but even if it is a deception, Cheng Zhiyuan has an ambush. I heard that Zhang Jiao is ill and will not go to war. I am afraid that Cheng Zhiyuan came out to claim credit. Even if there is an ambush, there won't be many soldiers. . Big brother, let the third brother go to fight, and then lead Cheng Zhiyuan out, I will kill him, then big brother will lead the troops to press forward, and strive to break the balance of Jizhou in a battle!" Guan Yu said, stroking his beard.
"Okay, second brother is right! Big brother, don't hesitate, hurry up!" Zhang Fei urged
"Let's go and fight!" Liu Bei thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,
"Kill!" Zhang Fei roared and rode towards him. When Deng Mao saw someone coming to fight, he immediately adjusted his posture, with only calmness and determination on his face. After all, this is a battlefield and everyone is here to risk their lives!
"Set up the formation and trap him to death, haha, you dare to come out!" Deng Mao laughed, and with a shout, the Yellow Turban Legions on both sides surrounded Zhang Fei, eliminating his horse's advantage one by one. , although the cavalry does a lot of damage, but if it doesn't charge, it's not as good as the infantry. Zhang Fei rushed too fast. Unexpectedly, Deng Mao suddenly made such a move. He did not fight him at all, but only used small soldiers to surround him. Zhang Fei was so anxious that he screamed. There were people on both sides and he couldn't rush at all!
"Oh, how can the third brother attack the enemy with short attacks?" Guan Yu asked anxiously.
"Second brother, hurry up and respond!" Liu Bei was also a little anxious. After all, it was Zhang Fei's first time on the battlefield, and he was really afraid that he would be caught in it!
Guan Yu will not rush into the crowd like Zhang Fei, only to see Mr. Guan leading a group of people in a circle to save Zhang Fei. Along the way, people and horses fell on their backs, and the Yellow Turban troops gave way one after another, leaving a lot of casualties. Guan Yu quickly approached Zhang Fei. When Zhang Laosan saw someone coming to rescue him, he became even more excited. He shouted loudly and swung the snake spear eight feet into the round, clearing the place in one fell swoop!
"Hmph, we're finally out, follow me! Kill these two Han generals!" Cheng Zhiyuan snorted coldly, appeared with more Yellow Turbans, and quickly joined forces with Deng Mao to form a larger encirclement! Surrounding Guan and Zhang. Guan Yu didn't dare to be blocked by infantry like Zhang Fei, so he had to keep circling to keep his horse charging at the same speed!
"Third brother! Capture the thief first! Capture the king first!" Guan Yu shouted while charging to kill.
"Hey!" Zhang Fei was furious, and with Guan Yu's restraint, he finally broke out of the encirclement, and his horse was finally able to move. "Thief general, take your life!" Zhang Fei went straight to Deng Mao. When Guan Yu saw it, he also rushed towards Cheng Zhiyuan!
"Okay!" Liu Bei, who was watching the battle, couldn't help cheering, and at the same time his heart was relieved. "Get ready to fight. If we win, we will take advantage of the situation to pursue you. If we lose, we will join forces with the two generals Guan and Zhang!"
"Yes, General!"
"Well done, general, you and I can kill a Han general each! Leave that ring-eyed thief to me!" Deng Mao said disdainfully
"Okay, you and I can relieve General Tiangong's worries!" Cheng Zhiyuan also said with a smile, and after saying this, the two of them attacked the Han army! Although the two of them are not famous generals, they can be regarded as masters compared to ordinary soldiers. Basically, they have no three-in-one enemies, and the two of them despise the Han army more and more!
"Dang!" Finally the four of them faced each other. When Cheng Zhiyuan's sword met Guan Yu's, he realized what regret meant. He only felt that his arms were numb, and the sword in his hand was knocked away. , his throat was filled with a mouthful of blood. Before he could swallow it, he felt a chill on his neck, and saw a horse pulling a headless corpse forward. Cheng Zhiyuan was still a little confused, why did this body look so familiar? , and then lost consciousness again. On the other side, Zhang Fei finally found his opponent. He thrust out his snake spear, pierced Deng Mao's sword through the middle, and stabbed him to the core! With one arm, he actually lifted Deng Mao up! Deng Mao's eyes widened until he died, with a look of disbelief on his face. He was defeated by this black-faced boy's move! Deng Mao's mouth was bleeding, but he could no longer speak. He only felt a burst of pain in his heart, and then he fell into endless darkness!
"Great, beat the drums and advance!" Liu Bei said with great joy, "Come with me!" Liu, Guan, and Zhang took advantage of the Yellow Turban Army's loss of command to lead their troops to charge. The sky was dark, the earth was dark, and the sun and the moon were dark. Finally, Even Lu Zhi also led troops to fight. In one battle, he actually wiped out most of the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou, and directly defeated Zhang Jiao and retreated to Julu and Guangzong!
At the same time, counterattacks of varying degrees broke out in various places. Powerful powers from all over the country recruited troops to form armies. Wars were everywhere in the Han Dynasty, and people were dying. To say that the most stable places were Luoyang and Changshan. Even in Xiliang, Han Sui and Dong Zhuo were confronting each other, waiting to see the changes in the forces of all parties. At this time, plague suddenly broke out on the grassland, and a large number of people and horses became sick and died, making the Qiang unable to move south. In addition, the Yellow Turban Army everywhere was at a disadvantage, so the two men with heavy troops slowly started to think about it! In the end, Han Sui obeyed the imperial edict and led troops to guard the border to resist the Qiang people. Anyway, he didn't have to lose a single soldier, and he could still ask for money and food from the imperial court. Why not? As for Dong Zhuo, when he saw Han Sui withdrawing his troops, he quickly brought Xiliang elites to the Central Plains to attack the Yellow Turban Army. He wanted to take this opportunity to develop his power and see if he could gain a foothold in the Central Plains and become a talker.
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. The Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou and Dongjun has been repulsed. A total of 300,000 Yellow Turban Army troops have been annihilated in the two places!" Zhang Rang quickly congratulated Emperor Ling. This was the happiest time for him in the past six months!
"Yeah. I didn't expect that such a huge group of thieves would be so vulnerable!" Emperor Ling smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Your Majesty's blessings are as high as the heavens, and your holy power shocks the world! Wherever the imperial army goes, thieves and bandits all flee!" Zhang Rang patted the dragon's butt with full praise, which only made Emperor Ling laugh.
"Okay, whatever matters to me, the lives of soldiers from all over the country are at stake!" Emperor Ling couldn't stand hearing it anymore! "Pass my decree and send someone to Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun to express condolences and reward the sergeant!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" "I just don't know what's going on with General He Jin?" Zhang Rang suddenly asked.
"Well, He Aiqing is guarding the gate of the capital. I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities to fight against the bandit army. I'm afraid there won't be much gained this time!" Emperor Ling said with a smile. In fact, while they were talking, He Jin took Cao Cao's advice and sent Cao Cao He and Yuan Shao each led a group of troops and horses, detoured behind Zhang Mancheng's troops, launched a sudden attack, and took advantage of the darkness to set fire to the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army's grain storage area! He also ordered the governors and families from all over Nanyang to work together to hold out in the major cities and forcefully defeated Zhang Mancheng's troops. When the news reached Luoyang, the maids in the palace all said that they saw His Majesty the Ling Emperor late at night. He put on costumes, secretly sang the show all night, drank wine all night, and finally got drunk on the dragon chair in the palace!
At this time in Changshan City, Cheng Feng was leading Zhao Yun and others to taste the wine he brewed.
"Come on, come on, how about a try?" Cheng Feng looked at Zhao Yun and the others with hope,
"Brother, are you sure you can drink this?" Zhao Yun looked at the wine in front of him and asked uncertainly, because this wine was completely different from what he had seen before. Not only did it not have the mellow aroma of wine, but the color was also weird. Look It still looks a bit like that. . Horse piss!
"That's right, my lord, are you sure it's not poisonous?" Zhang Liao also joked.
"Forget it, I'll be the first one to eat crabs!" Guo Jia picked up the wine glass and said as if he was rushing to the execution ground. This made everyone laugh, and after speaking, Guo Jia drank it all.
"How is it? How is it? Does it taste good?" Zhao Yun asked with a smile.
"Huh!" Guo Jia took a deep breath, "The taste is mellow and fragrant. After drinking it, my whole body feels warm and my energy is much better!" After thinking about it, Guo Jia said slowly
"What? Am I so magical?" Zhao Yun said with a smile, then he also picked up a glass and drank it in one gulp. Sure enough, the wine flowed slowly, and a strong aroma of wine came from wherever it went. His whole body felt warm and his brain became clear. After drinking a lot, I couldn’t help but praise, “It’s really a good wine!”
"Lord, what kind of wine is this?" After drinking a few glasses, Guo Jia couldn't bear it anymore and asked.
"Rice wine!" Cheng Feng laughed.
"What? Rice wine?" Several people looked at each other. This rice is a rare thing, especially now that it is everywhere. If anyone has rice, they will be really rich. My lord actually uses it to make wine. What a waste of natural resources!
"Lord! This?" Guo Jia was embarrassed to speak.
"Haha, I know what you are thinking? This was the last time it rained, and rainwater leaked into a warehouse. The rice inside was soaked and fermented by the rain. It couldn't be eaten anyway, so I used it to make wine! This wine is still Not bad!" Cheng Feng explained
After hearing what Cheng Feng said, a few people breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that he would use the grain to make wine. After all, this guy had too many things in his mind. Who knows when and where an idea would suddenly pop up! But then again. This wine is really good. Since it was good, the day was not too hot, and I heard the news of the victory of the Han army, the hot pot was set up again.
"I'm telling you, I'll treat you to barbecue in a few days!" Cheng Feng finally said drunkenly. Finally, I can drink a little bit of the taste of later generations of wine, and now this foodie starts to miss barbecue again!
"What is barbecue? Do you know?" Han Yong asked Zhang Liao with his tongue out.
"I don't know! It should be delicious anyway, just wait!" Zhang Liao rolled his eyes and said
The conversation between the two made everyone laugh, and the laughter spread, causing the yellow scarf scouts outside the city to be stunned. Could it be that their side was defeated again? I was so scared that I ran back to find out the news!
