"I have heard rumors that the three brothers of the Zhang family have obtained a method taught by an immortal, and when they use it, they can make people neither hungry nor tired, nor tired nor sleepy, ignoring pain, and not afraid of life and death!" Liu Jing said: "Look at the bravery of the Yellow Turbans today.
, it must have been done by Zhang Liang using sorcery."
"Is there such magic?" Huangfu Song was shocked when he heard it. Could it be that there are really gods in the world?
"It is rumored that this technique has a weakness. It will overdraw people's energy and make them extremely tired after it is over!"
Huangfu Song understood what Liu Jing wanted to express. He no longer hesitated and commanded the troops around him. Suddenly, the golden drums of the Han army were beating in unison!
The sound of golden drums and drums was a sign of maintaining the formation and retreating. Liu Jing and Fu Xie also turned back and returned to the front to lead the retreat of the army.
"General, what should we do? Are we still pursuing him?" the core believer asked.
The Han army moved very quickly. Hearing the sound of the golden drums, they immediately moved back, forming a large flying geese formation again and slowly retreating in an orderly manner. When they retreated to Ji'an, they still resisted the Yellow Turban's sword without panic at all.
.
Zhang Liang also counted the time, thinking that [Illusion] was about to pass, and there would be no advantage in fighting again. Today has dampened the morale of the Han army. As long as they rest tonight, the soldiers will regain their vitality and fight again tomorrow.
It will definitely inflict heavy damage on the Han army.
After thinking about this, Zhang Liang replied: "There is no need to pursue us. We will set up camp on the spot and order the soldiers to take a good rest and fight again with the Han army tomorrow!"
With no pursuers, the Han army withdrew from the battlefield in an orderly manner, while the Yellow Turban Army camped on the spot, with Guangzong City as its back.
After returning to the camp, the Han army began to count the number of people.
"General Huangfu, the inventory has been completed. Our army lost more than 2,000 people in this battle." Fu Xie reported to Huangfu after settling all the affairs of the army.
"More than two thousand people..." Huangfu Song muttered and was silent for a while. In this time, more than two thousand people were lost. Especially for a while, Zhang Liang went to a duel with Fu Xie. If
If we really keep fighting, we will probably lose more than half today.
By then, no matter how high the military quality of the Han army is, they will inevitably end up in a rout, and Huangfu Song will most likely be responsible for it in Guangzong City.
"General Huangfu, don't think too much, the bandits will have to repay the price sooner or later." Liu Jing said, the most important thing now is to take the opportunity to surprise the Yellow Turbans.
"That makes sense, Fu Xie. Make food early and order the soldiers to rest quickly. Tonight we will pay with blood for the thieves!"
Cheng Yu also nodded. He had to say that he was not optimistic about Liu Jing at first, but along the way he found that Liu Jing was pretty good in all aspects, and he could think quietly on the battlefield, not to mention that he was a real clan member of the Han Dynasty.
, there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with following him.
At worst, we have to wait for a while. People with discerning eyes in the world today can see that a country cannot rule a country! I have been here for decades, so it is not a bad idea to wait for a while. By then, the world will be out of control, and Liu Jing may not be able to rise up!
"Here!" Fu Xie quickly accepted the order. Preparations needed to be made in advance before the battle. He had to instruct the soldiers to know the plan.
Night fell. Although Liu Jing said it, it was just a rumor after all. Everything on the battlefield must be done with caution.
Huangfu Song, Fu Xie, Liu Jing, and Cheng Yu quietly approached the Yellow Turban camp and observed the specific situation of the Yellow Turbans.
As expected, the sentry soldiers seemed to be in a bad mental state. Some even looked around and squatted down to rest after seeing no one. Others were standing but their heads were moving little by little, obviously dozing off.
"It's just as expected," Huangfusong said softly. Looking at the thieves one by one, he was laughing in his heart. God helps me! If he can't defeat the Yellow Turban under such circumstances, then Huangfusong is really incompetent.
Performance!
"Go back and reorganize the army quickly. With the cavalry at the head of the front line, we can break through the bandit camp! We must behead the bandits!" Huangfu Song said, and the four of them hurriedly set off on the road back to the military camp.
In the Yellow Turban camp, Zhang Liang was also extremely tired, and using [Illusion] was a great drain on his energy. He was ready to rest after patrolling the camp.
Little did he know that during the inspection, the yellow turban sergeants were all trying to show off to him. As soon as he left, the yellow turban sergeants were tired and lazy.
Opportunities like this were rare, so Huangfu Song acted quickly. The army was quietly approaching. The yellow scarf sentries on the opposite side, illuminated by fire, were all sleepy. Some were squatting and some were standing. Without exception, no one noticed.
The silhouette of the Han army in the distant night.
"Dong dong dong!"
Under the darkness of night, a burst of drum sound came, which seemed extremely unexpected between heaven and earth!
Whether they were squatting or standing and taking a nap, all Huangjins were awakened. Looking around, they soon discovered that the Han army's cavalry was charging towards them.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
In an instant, warning sounds sounded throughout the camp.
Zhang Liang was woken up as soon as he fell asleep. As soon as the drum beat came, he felt bad. Today he thought that the Han army had been defeated by him. All he thought about was fighting again tomorrow, so he chose to camp on the spot.
He did not return to the city.
Now when the drums sound, it must be the Han army coming to attack at night. Everyone in the army is overstretched, and the defeat is irreversible!
What followed was a series of shouts.
Zhang Liang quickly got up, put on his armor, picked up his sword and rushed out of the camp.
As soon as we left the camp, there was the sound of horse hooves trampling the ground all around, and the leading cavalry of the Han army was already roaring towards us! Some of them were even galloping past!
The front arrow formation is shaped like an arrow, which is conducive to attack. The main force is cavalry. The formation is long and narrow. The cavalry charge quickly divides the battlefield and destroys the enemy's formation. Then the rear infantry is stationed to support it on both sides.
The cavalry has obviously completed its mission. The Yellow Turban camp has been divided into two halves by the iron hoof. Fu Xie and Liu Jing each led an army to support them, trying to completely divide the battlefield, making the Yellow Turban military order impossible!
Zhang Liang looked at the chaotic battlefield and quickly led his horse in an attempt to regroup, but the Han army would not give him a chance.
Liu Jing saw Zhang Liang's figure after he mounted his horse. As soon as Zhang Liang left, Liu Jing stepped forward and burned Zhang Liang's camp with a torch and cut down the flag.
He shouted: "The thief general Zhang Liang is dead! The thief general Zhang Liang is dead!"
Who can see clearly in the darkness? What's more, the formation is completely divided and chaotic, and there are voices everywhere.
The morale of the Han army increased after hearing this, and they shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Yellow Turbans who were far away from Zhang Liang did not know what was going on, thinking that Zhang Liang had really been killed by the enemy, so they panicked and resisted, and even fled!
Zhang Liang also shouted, "No!" When he turned around and saw that his camp was on fire and the morale of the Han troops was high, he immediately shouted: "Zhang Liang is here! Zhang Liang is here!"
But the sound could not be heard. The slogans of the Han army were shouted too loudly! How can one person's voice compete with tens of thousands of people!
Zhang Liang was so angry that he chopped off several Han soldiers around him with the sword in his hand! But he alone could not stop the Yellow Turbans' decline.
The core believers touched Zhang Liang's side at some point and exclaimed: "General Ren Gong, what should we do now?"
When Zhang Liang saw it was him, he shouted angrily: "Where are the flag and drum officials? Are all the flag and drum officials dead?"
"General! Where can I find the generals now? They are all just trying to escape!" the core believers replied.
Zhang Liang was furious after hearing this! He gritted his teeth and said, "Go back to Guangzong City!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw arrows all over the sky falling in the direction of Guangzong City. Huangfu Song, who was sitting at the rear, had long expected that the Yellow Turbans' first choice would be to return to Guangzong City. If they were really allowed to go back, the next step would definitely be a protracted war.
Therefore, archers were organized to shoot arrows from the rear toward Guangzong City, so as to avoid accidentally injuring their own soldiers and block the Yellow Turbans' retreat.
The Yellow Turbans who immediately retreated towards Guangzong City were hit by arrows and died on the spot. Some of those who were not hit by arrows did not dare to flee towards Guangzong City.
"General, we can't go back to Guangzong City!" the core believers said. At this moment, the chaotic situation, no way to retreat, isolation and helplessness, a kind of despair was felt under the superposition of various situations.
Zhang Liang turned around and looked bitterly towards the center of the Han army. He knew that Huangfu Song was there! But the Han army everywhere could not be killed by his own force!
"Go to Guangping!" Zhang Liang made a decision quickly. Guangping still has his old troops, and they can relieve the siege when they arrive in Guangping.
Zhang Liang took the lead and galloped towards the west, followed closely by the core cult members. The yellow scarves around him naturally recognized that it was Zhang Liang and hurried to keep up.
This escape also brought a large number of Yellow Turbans with them. Although they did not know the specific situation, they saw a large number of brothers running in that direction, so they naturally joined them.
Tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans retreated to the west.
Huangfu Song was sitting in the middle of the army and could see clearly the movements on the battlefield ahead, so he uttered one word: "Chase!"
The war drums beating beside me became closer and more urgent. This was the sound of the drums urging the attack.
The Han soldiers heard this and shouted, "Chase the bandits!"
"Chase the bandits!"
The momentum was extremely huge, and the army followed closely behind the Yellow Turban Army.
The cavalry troops moved to both sides to either mount and shoot, or to kill the lone Yellow Turbans.
Liu Jing and Fu Xie were even more bold. They led small groups of cavalry to continuously penetrate the rear of the Yellow Turbans' retreating troops, and each time they were able to capture part of the Yellow Turbans. The chasing Han troops from behind naturally swarmed up and surrounded and killed them.
Both armies were completely out of formation and fought solely on instinct and morale.
As the fleeing party, the Yellow Turbans had almost no power to fight back. Those who ran fast were still alive, while those who ran slowly were waiting to be poked with spears to make a few holes!
Having performed [Illusion] during the day, the Yellow Turbans did not get any rest at night, and their physical strength was not as good as before. Every time they ran a certain distance, some of the Yellow Turbans could not keep up and were overtaken by the Han army.
It was also when the Han army surrounded and killed these Yellow Turbans that they gave the fleeing Yellow Turbans some time to breathe. The soldiers from both sides chased and fled like this until the rooster crow.
The Han army chased after them and found that the Yellow Turban Army in front did not escape. After a closer look, it turned out that they had reached the shore of Zhangshui River. This was the only way between Guangzong and Guangping!
It is definitely impossible to cross the river now. The Han army is not far behind. When people are on the river, the Han army will fire arrows. It is inevitable to avoid them. Everyone will turn into a porcupine!
