"Your Majesty, now that General Xigong has driven back the Han army, the entire Han army in Jizhou is now walking on thin ice. How about we also send troops to attack. Taking advantage of the Han army's unstable morale, we send troops to attack Lu Zhi!" Zhang Niujiao said to Zhang Bao said that although Zhang Bao had become king, Zhang Niujiao still supported Zhang Jiao more in his heart, so when he saw this opportunity, he quickly suggested to Zhang Bao!
"Well, yes, now is indeed a good opportunity. I just didn't expect that my eldest brother's men are so powerful. But we can't lose our reputation. In this way, starting from tomorrow, you will take turns attacking the Han army with your troops!" Zhang Bao thought for a while. said
"Here, attack Lu Zhi?" Zhang Niujiao was quite happy at first, but he didn't understand this taking turns to attack. Isn't he just Lu Zhi? When the army passes by, they are plowing the courtyard and clearing holes. There is still a chance for him to survive!
"It's not just Lu Zhi. We'll hit anyone we meet. In short, we can't let the Han army really gather together. Now while their morale is low, we have to attack. There are not many opportunities to beat the drowned dog. As long as it is not Cheng Feng, Let's fight, but I don't believe it. We have men and horses, but we can't beat a group of Han troops who have lost their courage!" Zhang Bao laughed.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhang Niujiao was startled and said quickly, this Prince of his is probably crazy. He can fight against the Shadow Army. His soldiers are only half as good as the Han Army. It seems that he must operate it well. Stop it, otherwise you will be tricked to death by this guy!
The whole Jizhou is now covered with a layer of gloomy clouds. Although the weather in July and August does not change as often as in June, it is also windy and rainy. After several days of high temperature exposure, the shadows of Beijing have begun to change. These The corpse exuded a stench and had begun to rot, but Zhang Jue had no intention of cleaning it up. Zhu Jun originally planned to clean it up, but he didn't expect that none of the people he sent out came back. He cursed angrily. Zhang Jiao is unreasonable. No matter how hostile the forces are, they will arrange the corpses reasonably and properly on this battlefield. No matter which side they belong to, they will be disposed of properly. One is to let them bury them in peace, and the other is to prevent the plague. But this time Zhang Jiao went a little too far. After being exposed to the sun, there were already many viruses. It would be troublesome if it suddenly hit a heavy rainy day. It seemed that he couldn't stand the miserable scene today, with the torrential rain. It rained for three days, and the ground was filled with dead bodies. The bones of a hundred thousand people were washed everywhere. As the sun came up and the heat steamed, the plague began to spread.
"General, it's bad, the plague, the plague is coming!" Zhu Jun finally took the opportunity to dispose of some of the corpses, but suddenly his soldiers came to report, which shocked Zhu Jun and others at that time. It was really Whatever you are afraid of comes, just now a few people were worried about the plague, but they didn't expect it to spread so quickly.
"There is no plague, you are talking nonsense!" Zhu Jun said angrily, this guy, if he yells like this, it will be ruined, and the military morale that has just been stable will be disrupted again! At the same time, Zhu Jun gave Huangfu Chong a look, and the latter hurried out and took the time to deal with the corpses and those who were infected with the plague. If he was late, he would suffer a serious crime! "Go and pass the order. The army must not move. Now let me rest in peace!" Zhu Jun said to the soldiers. After the soldiers left, Zhu Jun hurriedly asked Cao Cao and others to discuss it.
"General, this matter is unavoidable. Now that the plague has begun to spread, we can only appease and use it!" Cao Cao thought for a while and said.
"Oh! Meng De, tell me how to use it?" Zhu Jun didn't expect this and asked quickly. At the same time, Sun Jian was also very interested. He has been busy recently. He has to guard against Zhang Jiao's sneak attack every day and deal with it. Most of the corpses were finally disposed of, and most of the rest were under Guangzong City. It was really difficult to dispose of them!
"Haha, just let this plague spread in Guangzong! Let's enclose the land, encircle Guangzong City, and leave these corpses to them. Now I don't think this shadow army dares to go out of the city to fight!" Cao Cao! He said with a sinister smile, which made this group of people shiver deeply in this hot summer day. This cheating Cao Cao is so cruel!
"Well, it's not our fault. They didn't deal with these corpses and prevented us from burying them. It's really unreasonable. Just let them get the plague!" Zhu Jun was also very angry. He was really bullying! After they discussed and decided, a group of people brought soldiers and horses to clean up the surroundings, burned many corpses on fire, and then stared at Guangzong, preventing them from leaving the city.
Zhang Jiao is an old god. There are a lot of herbal medicines in Guangzong City, and he knows medical skills. He boils a lot of herbal medicines and drinks them every day. This shadow army obeys Zhang Jiao's words and drinks them every day with great pleasure. When the time came, Zhang Jiao poured hot oil directly from the city wall, and then set a fire. Cao Cao's plan to wipe out the entire family was defeated by him! However, this plague also affected a lot of people. When Chengfeng got the news, he immediately asked everyone in Changshan Julu to drink the herbal medicine. Anyone who didn't drink it didn't waste any time and just chopped it down with a knife. Changshan was already in the morning. The people who follow Cheng Feng understand these benefits and don’t resist them much. Even some people in Julu don’t understand and think Cheng Feng has a good temper. They are just talking nonsense and seeing this result. Despondently, he went to drink the medicine. Chengfeng's thunder method had a miraculous effect. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chengfeng also eliminated a group of restless people. For a time, Julu City was full of people, and many people who had been brought in by aristocratic families Before he could lurk, he was eliminated! Although Yuan Shao and others were far away, they were still worried and hurried to Cheng Feng to get medicine. After all, Cheng Feng, a famous man, relied on treating the plague. After a few days of effective control, the matter was finally dealt with! This plague came and went quickly. Both sides took the fastest measures, so that it was over before the infection spread, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise there would be no need for this battle. beated!
Just when Jizhou was trembling in fear as if facing an abyss, Bingzhou was completely shaken, "Kill!" He Jin personally led the elite of Xiyuan to kill the Baibo Army all the way. Since the Baibo Army were basically ordinary people, He Jin has no fighting power at all. He Jin has been pushing forward all the way. Since entering Bingzhou, it really depends on the wind and the rain. It is called a smooth weather. He Jin has never had such a smooth life since he led the army. These days God was so lucky that he almost had the illusion and almost thought that he was a peerless general. He was really invincible and could fight wherever he pointed!
"General, we have fought from Hedong to Hexi. This is nearly a thousand miles. Should we rest for a few days? The army has been fighting continuously during this period, and it is also a bit tiring!" He Jin's younger brother He Miao said, knowing that this time Just come to pick up military merit. He Jin brought his own brother, planning to take the opportunity to gild him!
"Yeah! That makes sense. Tell the soldiers that we will rest after we reach Taiyuan. Now there are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry in Taiyuan city. I will allow you to loot it when the time comes!" It's not that He Jin doesn't know anything about military affairs either. He has great ambitions, otherwise he would not be able to secure this position. Now is a good opportunity for him to make a contribution. Last time he attacked the Yellow Turban Army, he made mistakes and won a victory, and then he became the general. seat! Hearing He Jin's words, this group of arrogant soldiers worked even harder, roaring and rushing forward. Anyone who blocked them along the way became a ghost under the sword. They fought until they reached the gate of Taiyuan City, and He Jin really stopped killing! "The army has rested for half a month, and the generals and commanders are patrolling closely and doing defensive work to avoid being attacked by the bandits!" After settling in the camp, He Jin was giving orders. With a series of actions, Bingzhou gained temporary stability!
"Commander, can we continue like this?" Bo Cai's former personal soldier is now Bai Bo's military advisor. Looking at the recent situation, he hurriedly said to Bai Bo
"I know it won't work, but what can I do? Most of our troops are ordinary people. Only your thousands of people have experienced the war. How do you tell me to fight? Let alone the formation strategy. I will run away as soon as I see this group of people. , how to fight this battle?" Bai Bo smiled bitterly, feeling very helpless. Now he regretted jumping out so early. He should have waited a few more years until he became stronger.
"What the general said is indeed the truth, but the soldiers are more expensive than the elite. As long as we have an elite army, we can defeat He Jin. This great general He Jin is a butcher. He relies on nepotism. How can there be anything else? What a real ability, as long as we defeat him once, we can make the Han army tremble with fear!" Looking at Bai Bo's furious look, the chief military advisor of Bingzhou said
"Oh! It's not easy either. You see how to fight. Anyway, we can't count on this group of people. If it doesn't work, just go to other places as soon as possible to avoid being chased by the Han army!" Bai Bo frowned and said, now He regretted it very much. He shouldn't have listened to this guy's deception, otherwise his life would be so comfortable now!
"General, why don't we go to Jizhou and invite Zhang Yan to help in the battle? Zhang Yan has cooperated with the local general Zhang Bao many times and defeated Lu Zhi many times. His men are also elite soldiers. With his help, I want to defeat He Jin. question!"
"I'm afraid it's easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. If Zhang Yan doesn't leave in our Bingzhou state, what will we do? Besides, I'm afraid that Jizhou won't be able to do without him!" Bai Bo and the others don't know that Zhang Yan has already left with him. Zhang Bao broke up with him and was leading his troops to plunder things.
"If we continue to fight, we don't have to think about sending the gods. I'm afraid we won't even be able to see the gods. You see, the Han army has sophisticated weapons and killed countless of our troops. If this continues, we won't have much time left. !”
"Okay! Then send someone to ask for Zhang Yan. I hope it won't be a big trouble!" Bai Bo thought for a while and said helplessly, and then arranged for someone to go to Jizhou to find Zhang Yan!
Now that Jizhou has become a mess, there have been disasters such as the plague. Zhang Yan has long wanted to leave here. When he sees the opportunity in Bingzhou, he will not let it go. He is planning to find an opportunity to enter Bingzhou and re-establish a force. , after all, Jizhou has offended everyone. No matter whether the Han army wins or the Yellow Turban army wins, they have no place to stand. Bingzhou, which has just been fought, is a good place. He Jin's troops belong to the Central Army, and their equipment is Yes, but the combat effectiveness is surprisingly weak. It can be used to deal with Baibo's common people. If he takes action on his own, he will be able to capture them easily! Zhang Yan was planning how to go to Bingzhou to establish an advantage as quickly as possible, when she received an invitation from Bai Bo. It was really because she was dozing off and someone gave her a pillow! Zhang Yan had no ink, so he led an army of 100,000 and went directly to Bingzhou. As for his hometown of Heishan, Zhang Yan left all the women and children behind. Although Zhang Yan was a bandit, he did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. He mainly looted. Materials and property are used to support this group of people. As the number of people increases, he has to grab more and more. He still knows his own ability, that is, he can occupy a mountain and become the king. Why should he be an official? Yes, that is absolutely impossible! Now he came to Bingzhou, firstly to grab things, and secondly to find a suitable place to resettle those people. Now that there are nearly a million people in Heishan, he really can't let them go. He entrusts them to the Han army and himself I'm not at ease, it's okay if I give it to Cheng Feng, but I'm just afraid that Cheng Feng will take care of me too!
"General, fifty miles further, we will reach the border of Bingzhou! Should we attack the Han army directly or join up with Bai Bo first?" The scout came to report.
"Let's find a place to set up camp first. I don't think anyone knows about our arrival yet, but we can't let down our guard. After the brothers have a few days of rest, we will start working." Zhang Yanhao said boldly. This far away from Jizhou, he suddenly felt a sensation on his body. The pressure has been reduced a lot, which really makes people feel at ease!
"It's the general!" A group of people quickly went to choose a suitable address. Zhang Yan led the army and continued to move forward. Zhang Yan wanted to give a large amount of supplies to the people of Montenegro so that they could live. Therefore, every time he went on an expedition, he supported war with war. Even now, each person only brought a few days of rations, which was almost consumed along the way. After the army rested, Zhang Yan quickly sent people to find the Han army's food routes, hoping to quickly replenish food and grass!
"Kill!" It happened to be a coincidence that the Han army happened to be delivering food to He Jin, so Zhang Yan led the troops to kill him. The Han army had been doing well recently, and they had been transporting food and grass many times without any problems. Even if they were killed, they would not think of anyone. The food robbery, coupled with the pitiful low combat effectiveness of the Bingzhou rebellious army, led to little preparation. Some people even felt a little coke when they saw the Black Mountain Army rushing over. Isn't this another group of people who want to kill people? Who would have thought that transporting grain and fodder can also earn military merit? It’s really not bad!
"Kill!" However, the expressions of the group of people changed as soon as they fought. Why was this so fierce? Half of the Han army fell down in a few breaths. This shocked the food transporter, and this baby also didn't. Silly, I knew at that time that this was not Bai Bo's person, so I quickly led the people and ran to He Jin's camp. However, this man was also smart. He also caught a prisoner and was considered a sensible person. Zhang Yan ran away after grabbing the food and grass. The food transporters also ran away. The ambush ended quickly. Dozens of Han soldiers were left in a daze. What was this? They quickly collected the remaining food and continued to the camp!
"General! It's bad! Our grain and grass were robbed by Zhang Yan!" The grain transport officer didn't say anything at first. When he saw He Jin, he quickly whispered. He also knew that if he yelled, then That's it. Not to mention anything else, He Jin can knock himself out just by disrupting the morale of the army. Others don't know him, but he knows that He Jin is a butcher, but he is very decisive in killing. The only drawback is that I am not very good at thinking. After all, I am illiterate and have never been exposed to many things. But there is only one thing I am very good at, and that is killing. Whether it is killing pigs, sheep or killing people, it is all the same. Take good care of yourself.
"What? Are you sure it's Zhang Yan?" He Jin jumped up and grabbed the guy's collar. Veins popped up on his forehead, which made everyone's heart tremble with fear!
"Yes! Let me fight out. There are too many people. We may lose our food and grass. General, please think of a way quickly. This Yan's troops killed hundreds of our brothers in an instant! "The man said anxiously, "It's okay if you don't hurry. You have to divert He Jin's attention quickly, otherwise this guy will hit himself sooner or later!"
"So powerful?" He Jin was shocked. He knew the situation of his troops. If Zhang Yan came, he would feel a little uncomfortable. He had just won the victory and the news of victory had just been sent. If he was defeated by Zhang Yan again, then he would feel a little uncomfortable. It’s so much fun!
"General, I have learned that Zhang Yan can be regarded as a fierce general. He is able to conquer and fight. He often has a hundred thousand soldiers under his command. He is really powerful. Even General Lu Zhi was defeated by this man many times. Come on!" He Jin's personal soldier also said quickly. He was also afraid that Zhang Yan would come and kill him. Even though it was so fun to beat the common people now, once he really fought with the regular army, his side would have no advantage. !
"If this is really the case, then what should we do? We can't just retreat, right?" He Jin made a few people think that they had no idea. Although he was secretive and had been hiding his clumsiness for so many years, it was all for a big thing. , but he couldn’t expose his strength right now, so he had to continue asking.
"How about we withdraw to Hangu Pass, and we can hold on with the help of this favorable location. Besides, we can't hold on for long without the army of grain and grass. Even if we can transport it later, Zhang Yan will attack the grain road, and I think we will suffer terribly. Say it!" At this time, Chen Lin stood up and said, as He Jin's only think tank, Chen Lin can only give honest advice, because he really can't beat him unless someone comes to help!
"Yeah! That's okay, but I'm not willing to retreat like this!" He Jin was still a little sad. He finally reached Taiyuan and really didn't want to retreat just like that.
"By the way, general, if you don't retreat, you can let Ding Yuan lead the troops to attack Zhang Yan. Ding Yuan's recruiting power has greatly increased. I heard that he recently adopted an adopted son. He is really powerful!" Chen Lin seemed like Suddenly he remembered and said
"Yes, why did I forget about him? Go quickly and send the order for Ding Jianyang to raise his troops and attack Zhang Yan!" He Jin casually sent someone and at the same time ordered Xu Rong to lead the army to defend. As for grain and grass, what was stolen recently in Bingzhou It's not a lot, so I can still hold on for a while. I'm here to suppress bandits. I don't have the final say on who is the bandit!
