Chapter 85 Liu Zhang seizes power in Changshe City
Although the Yellow Turban general who just took action was not considered a strong general among the Yellow Turban Army, Huang Xu defeated him so easily in just one round, which shocked Bo Cai. He saw Bo Cai riding forward and asked
: "May I ask, General, who is the commander-in-chief of your army?"
Zhang Fei's voice was loud, and he shouted loudly: "Bo Cai, my eldest brother is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, a general with great facial features, and the champion Hou Liu Zhang! If you know the truth, please dismount your horse and surrender, otherwise you will be scolded and no one will be left alive!"
"
"Yide, actually what you said is wrong!" Zhang Ren joked from the side: "The Yellow Turban Army doesn't have chickens or dogs to begin with. Even if they did, they would still be robbing the people."
Zhang Fei touched his head and said: "Whatever, that's what it means!"
When had Bo Cai been scolded like this? Ever since he defected to the Yellow Turban, he had been valued by Zhang Jiao and appointed as Fangqu Commandery with a heavy army. In the eyes of outsiders, he was an out-and-out devil. Although Zhang Jiao had once
The Yellow Turban Army was ordered to be careful of Liu Zhang, but looking at Liu Zhang's young face, Bo Cai was so cautious.
"Bo Cai, I'll give you a chance. It's not too late to surrender now!" Liu Zhang's words made Bo Cai very happy. You know, Liu Zhang only had 40,000 people, and Bo Cai had more than 400,000 people. Liu Zhang asked Bo Cai to surrender, wasn't he kidding?
Bocai shook his head and said: "Champion Hou, this joke is not funny!"
"Really?" Liu Zhang suddenly ordered: "Zilong, I order your troops to protect Fengxiao and Zhicai, and the others will charge with me!"
Under the command of Zhang Ren and others, the 40,000 Huben army followed Liu Zhang and rushed towards Bocai, and Bocai also directed the Yellow Turban army to move forward. But the Huben army was like a giant ship traveling on the water, and the Yellow Turban army was hit like waves.
On the ship, waves occasionally splash onto the deck, and are instantly evaporated by the high temperature.
"This..." Looking at the orderly formation of the Tiger and Ben army, which was pressing forward step by step, Bo was stunned. He had never thought that he would face such an army. The Yellow Turban Army, which was ten times the size, looked like a tiger in front of the Tiger Army.
What a joke! Bocai pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Brothers, hold on!"
Can the Yellow Turban Army withstand it? Of course not! However, with Liu Zhang's 40,000 troops, it is not a problem to defeat the Yellow Turban Army, but it is still quite difficult to suppress the Yellow Turban thieves in Yingchuan.
"Commander! Reinforcements are coming!" Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were frowning in Changshe City, not knowing what to do, when a small school student rushed into their temporary meeting hall.
"What?!" Huangfu Song jumped up and said, "Who leads the troops? How many troops are there?"
The primary school officer replied, "This person is coming under the banner of Champion Hou and is currently fighting with Bocai's army outside the city!"
Zhu Jun smiled and said: "Yizhen, it seems that the Yellow Turban Army is going to be in trouble! That champion doesn't even pay attention to the Karasuma people!"
"I just don't know if he will take us seriously!" Huangfu Song sneered: "Forty thousand troops are already almost the same as our total strength!"
Zhu Jun ignored Huangfusong's words and asked the primary school: "How is the battle situation now?"
"This..." The principal looked at Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song and said with some embarrassment: "Now Bo Cai is being suppressed and beaten by Champion Hou's troops!"
"What?" Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were shocked again. They had experienced the combat power of Bo Cai's army. Huangfu Song said: "Gongwei, order the troops to prepare for attack. Let's go to the top of the city to have a look!"
"Okay!" After Zhu Jun gave the order, he immediately climbed up to the top of the city with Huangfu Song. On the top of the city, they saw an incredible scene. Those yellow scarf thieves who were not afraid of death were like lambs meeting tigers. It was torn to pieces, but the Tiger and Ben army didn't seem to suffer many casualties.
"This...how is this possible?" As veteran generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun certainly understood the principle of killing one thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred, but the Tiger and Ben troops seemed to have violated this truth. Only a square formation composed of 40,000 Huben troops was seen. Under the leadership of Liu Zhang and others, they strolled towards Changshe City. At first, the Yellow Turban Army rushed forward to attack, but slowly, the Yellow Turban Army seemed to make way for them.
Liu Zhang came to the city and raised his head and said: "Open the city gate!"
"This...please ask the general to show the seal document to his subordinates for verification!" Although Liu Zhang was under the banner of the Han Army, as a veteran general, the process of verifying his identity must not be ignored. God knows, it was not the Yellow Turban Thief who acted just now. A play.
Liu Zhang took out the imperial edict and the seal and threw it into the bamboo basket that fell on the city wall. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun opened it and looked at it, and they suddenly trembled. This young man, who was not very old, was actually here to take over the military power. Huangfu Song quickly asked someone to open it. He opened the city gate and allowed Liu Zhang to enter the city. After Liu Zhang led his troops into the city, Bo Cai breathed a sigh of relief.
The Huben Army was led by Zhao Yun and others to garrison, and Liu Zhang brought Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and Shi A to the temporary meeting hall. After reading the imperial edict, Liu Zhang naturally sat at the head of the chair, while Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun sat honestly Sitting at the bottom, after a long silence, Liu Zhang asked: "General Huangfu, General Zhu, your majesty is very dissatisfied with your lack of progress!"
"This..." Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun smiled bitterly and said: "The champion, it's not that the generals don't contribute, it's not that the Yellow Turban Army is too powerful, it's that there are too many of them! Every time we fight, we have to face ten times more Although our troops were not defeated, the consumption of soldiers was too great, so we had no choice but to huddle in Changshe City."
Liu Zhang glanced at Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song and said: "Two generals, maybe I have taken away your military power, which makes you very unhappy, or maybe you are from a noble family and you are very disdainful of this person who often goes against the noble family. But my ugly words are ahead. Since His Majesty has ordered me to be in charge of the entire army, you must be obedient. Now I will give you a chance. If you are not willing to advance and retreat together with me. Or you can find a place. Hide and wait until I clean up the Yingchuan Yellow Turban before coming out. Or, leave Changshe now. But if you hinder me, I will never care who you are. Killing first and reporting later is the right given to me by Your Majesty!"
Looking at the snake-cutting sword in Liu Zhang's hand, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's pupils shrank. Maybe the soldiers didn't recognize this high-end snake-cutting sword, but Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were in important positions, how could they not know each other? That's what Liu Zhang said. To put it bluntly, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun immediately stood up and said: "In the end, the champion will take the lead!"
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were very knowledgeable about current affairs, and Liu Zhang was very satisfied. If they dared to say no, it would be nonsense for Liu Zhang to let them go. Although Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's troops were not as good as Liu Zhang's, they still had tens of thousands of troops. With Liu Zhang's character, if they wanted to leave, Liu Zhang would naturally kill people to seize power. Who knew that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun had already walked away behind closed doors.
With the addition of Liu Zhang's troops, Changshe City can be said to be impregnable. However, Liu Zhang never let his soldiers defend the city. According to Liu Zhang, hungry wolves are supposed to eat meat, how can they do what dogs do? Naturally, the gatekeeper is Use dogs! Of course, many people were dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's words, but after several provocations, the Tiger and Ben troops always defeated the greater number with less, so Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's troops had to give in. After half a month of running in, Liu Zhang has basically mastered the long-term skills. The troops in Shecheng, so he began to take advantage of Bocai's idea.
At first, Liu Zhang first sent Zhang Fei and others to fight in turns. Seeing that Zhang Fei and others were young, the Yellow Turban Army naturally looked down upon them. However, after several fights, the Yellow Turban Army finally discovered that these people were all murderers. In the end, they No matter how many times Zhang Fei and others called for formation, no one paid any attention.
Then, Liu Zhang began to carry out night raids! Every night, Liu Zhang ordered Zhang Fei, Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun, and Huang Xu to take turns to attack, which made Bo Cai miserable. The most cruel one was when Liu Zhang asked Zhao Yun to go out of the city to attack at night, and even The city gates were not closed. Bo Cai thought he had an opportunity, but Zhang Fei, who was ambushing in the city, was seriously injured and almost died. After a series of fierce battles, Bo Cai finally realized how powerful Liu Zhang was. In order not to suffer any more losses , Bo Cai decided that he would never conflict with Liu Zhang. He would only lay siege to the city and cut off the grain roads, allowing Liu Zhang to collapse without a fight.
This siege lasted for half a month, and he saw that the food stock in Changshe was getting less and less day by day, but Liu Zhang was not anxious. As the saying goes: the emperor is not anxious and the eunuch is anxious. Liu Zhang is not anxious, but Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are anxious. They are not afraid of death. It is a long-cherished wish of a general to wrap his body in horse leather, but it would be unworthy if he died at the hands of the Yellow Turban thieves due to lack of food. When Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun found Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang, Guo Jia and others were discussing how to eliminate them. Yingchuan Yellow Turban.
Seeing Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun burst into the meeting hall with anxious expressions on their faces, Liu Zhang couldn't help but smile and asked: "Two generals, what happened to make you so anxious?"
Zhu Jun was outspoken. He couldn't help but said: "Champion, as the coach, I shouldn't have come. But our army only has more than a month of rations left. If we can't annihilate Bocai, we have to find a way to break out. This can't be done." Wait to die!"
"Breakthrough?" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "I already have a strategy to defeat the enemy, but the time has not yet come, so the two generals can just wait patiently!"
"Wait! You know how to wait! If you have a plan, why don't you tell us?" Zhu Jun said anxiously: "If you don't give me an explanation today, I..."
"How are you?" Seeing Zhu Jun relying on his old age, Liu Zhang couldn't help but snorted: "I speak, and you obey orders. I don't care who you are, if you dare to disobey military orders, you will be killed without mercy! I said so." The way to defeat the enemy is to have it. Even if it isn't, you still have to say it is!"
"You..." Zhu Jun's eyes widened, as if he wanted to fight Liu Zhang desperately!
"Champion Hou, General Zhu has a reckless personality. He didn't mean to offend you!" Huangfu Song quietly pulled Zhu Jun and said: "Let him do it, and we can keep our own troops! The Yellow Turban thieves are powerful. If they are defeated, Champion Hou will stand up to them. , so as not to chop off our heads!"
"Okay... I will obey the order!" Zhu Jun swallowed suddenly, and even Huangfu Song was surprised by how quickly he changed. You know, Zhu Jun has a hot temper, and sometimes even Huangfu Song can't persuade him. But today's situation, It's really weird.
