Sun Jian's attack was naturally extraordinary. The ancient ingot knife slashed towards Zhang Mancheng's neck with the whistling wind. Seeing that Zhang Mancheng was about to die on the spot, suddenly a soldier with a yellow scarf on his head hugged Sun Jian fiercely and shouted: "Qu
Handsome! Let’s go!”
"Want to leave?" The snake halberd thrust forward fiercely, and the arms of the pawn hugging Sun Jian were cut off immediately. Zhang Mancheng's eyes were split, but he knew that he was no match for Sun Jian and the two of them and ran back quickly. But as the imperial army
During the attack, there were more and more Han soldiers on the top of the city. Zhang Mancheng stared at a pair of blood-red eyes, gritted his teeth and jumped off the top of Wancheng City!
"Bah..." Sun Jian spat, feeling very depressed. This could make Zhang Mancheng run away. It was so depressing.
The big man holding a snake halberd couldn't help laughing when he saw Sun Jian's depressed face and said: "My lord, you have already boarded Wancheng. You must be the first to break the city. You always have to give others some soup. That Zhang Man achieved success
Think of it as a gift to Qin Jie! We still have to stay in Jiangdong anyway, so it would be good to have a better relationship with Nanyang Prefect!"
"I'm telling you, Zhang Mancheng's head is quite valuable. Even if you want to give it away, you can't give it to Qin Jie!" When Sun Jian saw that the dust had settled, he sat down on the ground without caring about the corpses on the ground.
Cheng Pu stepped forward to help Sun Jian up and said: "I don't know who to send to! I think Zhang Mancheng is good at martial arts, but Qin Jie may not be able to defeat him! Stop sitting here and follow me back to the camp to change. I heard
After Lu Zhi on Guangzong's side was captured and taken to the capital, Dong Zhuo was defeated by Zhang Jiao. If Wancheng's side is pacified, then the champion Hou Liu Zhang may go to Jizhou! Let's hurry up and join in the fun."
"De Mou is worthy of being a general!" Sun Jian was not injured, but he was tired of killing people! With Cheng Pu's support, he slowly walked down the city.
Zhu Jun and Qin Jie saw that Wancheng had been destroyed and were commanding their troops to clean up the mess. When they saw Sun Jian from a distance, Zhu Jun immediately went up to him and said, "Wentai is indeed a tiger from the east of the Yangtze River. I have attacked Wancheng several times. I don't want Wentai."
It only took one day to conquer!"
Sun Jian was still worried about Zhang Mancheng's escape. He cupped his hands and said: "The general is incompetent and let Zhang Mancheng escape!"
"He can't escape!" Zhu Jun said with a smile: "The champion has laid a dragnet. Not only Zhang Mancheng, but also Peng Tuo and Bu Ji can't escape. Perhaps only the champion can deal with Zhang Jiao!"
As the saying goes: There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. Seeing Zhu Jun's admiration for Liu Zhang, Sun Jian couldn't help but be surprised. Especially Liu Zhang's legendary deeds made Sun Jian envious. You know, Sun Jian also has two sons.
, one named Sun Ce, slightly younger than Liu Zhang, and another son named Sun Quan, only three years old. Sun Quan couldn't tell it yet, but Sun Ce was extremely brave. Sun Jian once asserted that Sun Ce could do it before he was fifteen years old.
surpassed him. However, Liu Zhang was able to lead troops to repel Karasuma at the age of thirteen, and even stormed the Karasuma Palace. Such miraculous deeds made Sun Jian want to meet Liu Zhang.
Zhu Jun was sighing at the side, but Sun Jian was stunned. Qin Jie climbed up step by step from a junior official. When he saw Sun Jian in a daze, he thought Sun Jian was tired, so he smiled and said: "Master Zhu, we have been fighting at Wentai for a long time.
, although he was not injured, his physical strength has been exhausted a lot, so we should not delay his rest!"
Zhu Jun slapped his forehead and said: "I'm confused! Wentai quickly go and rest, there will be a big responsibility for you in the future!"
"Goodbye, general!" Sun Jian slightly cupped his hands and walked towards the camp with the support of Cheng Pu. As for the troops, Zhu Jun and Qin Jie were gathering them, he was not worried that Zhu Jun and Qin Jie would annex his troops. You know, Sun Jian His generals are extremely loyal.
Back at the camp, Cheng Pu helped Sun Jian to bed. Suddenly Sun Jian asked: "De Mou, do you believe Liu Zhang is really that magical?"
"This..." Cheng Pu hesitated and said, "I can't say! China is so big that there are many surprises. In ancient times, Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve, and Huo Qiaoqi attacked the Huns at the age of nineteen and sealed the wolf as a Xu. That was Liu Zhang. I wouldn't be surprised if you can really deal with foreigners at the age of thirteen."
Sun Jian sighed: "According to what you said, this Liu Zhang is a stranger sent from heaven, why not let Ce'er work with him..."
"Lord, let's take a look first and then talk!" Cheng Pu said with a smile: "Isn't it too arbitrary to make a decision based on rumors alone? The young master is very talented and may have a better future than Liu Zhang!"
Sun Jian smiled and shook his head without saying anything. How could he, a father, not know his son's ability? When it comes to charging into battle, Sun Ce is not as good as Sun Jian, but when it comes to using his brain, Sun Ce is far inferior to Sun Jian. When Sun Jian smiled and said nothing, Cheng Pu knew When he was tired, he retreated. Even Cheng Pu had been fighting all morning and his body was a little tired.
Just when a fierce battle was taking place in Wancheng, Liu Zhang also launched an attack on Peng Tuo's troops. This time, Liu Zhang launched the attack with the belief that he would kill with one strike. Although Peng Tuo had many soldiers, they were a mob. Before long, The Yellow Turbans were defeated again by Liu Zhang. In the previous confrontations, Liu Zhang withdrew his troops as soon as the Yellow Turbans were defeated. But this time, Liu Zhang and Huangfu Song actually divided their troops into small groups to kill the fleeing Yellow Turbans.
"Commander Qu! General Li can't stand it any longer!" A Yellow Turban junior high school officer ran to Peng Tuo and said, "I don't know what happened to the Han army, but it turned out to be extremely ferocious. Our army can't stand it anymore!"
Peng Tuo looked at the battlefield not far away with burning eyes and said: "Tell the brothers to wait a little longer. If Liu Zhang doesn't retreat after a while, we will retreat to Wancheng to join Marshal Zhang!"
"Yes!" The Yellow Turban Primary School immediately went down to deliver the order. At this time, Liu Zhang's attack became more and more fierce.
Peng Tuo's eyes were red as he looked at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were being killed one after another, and his heart was bleeding. He saw that the Yellow Turban Army really couldn't stop it, so he immediately ordered: "Send my order and the whole army will retreat towards Wancheng!"
After giving the order, Peng Tuo did not stop. After gathering the direct troops under his command, he went to Wancheng. Although the Yellow Turban Army was a mob, it had its advantages. The soldiers dispersed and gathered together, and even if there were deserters, it didn't matter much. .
"Report!" After walking for less than twenty miles, the Yellow Turban Army scouts reported: A group of troops appeared not far ahead, which seemed to be the Yellow Turban Army! Peng Tuo stepped forward and saw the flag the other party was flying, and it turned out to be Zhang Mancheng's troops.
"What's going on?" Seeing that he was one of his own, Peng Tuo immediately rode forward to ask. Zhang Mancheng was not in the army. The person who came was Zhang Mancheng's general Zhao Hong.
Zhao Hong sighed and said: "A general appeared under Zhu Jun and captured Wancheng. Marshal Zhang's life or death is uncertain!"
"What?!" Peng Tuo said in shock: "Once Wancheng is lost, our army will lose its foundation in the Yingchuan area. What should we do?"
Zhao Hong smiled bitterly and said: "Let's go to the Great Master!"
"It would be great if I could go!" Peng Tuo also said with a wry smile: "I was defeated by Liu Zhang, I guess he will chase me soon!"
Zhao Hong was also shocked when he heard this. He couldn't help but ask: "What should we do?"
"Complete the army, let's fight with Liu Zhang!" Just when Zhao Hong and Peng Tuo looked helpless, a voice sounded behind them. It turned out to be Zhang Mancheng who had narrowly escaped from Wancheng. You know, Qin Jie was able to kill Qin in history. The killing of Zhang Mancheng was mostly attributed to Huang Zhong. Now that Huang Zhong has surrendered to Liu Zhang, why did Qin Jie and Zhu Jun kill Zhang Mancheng?
"Commander!" Seeing Zhang Mancheng, Zhao Hong and Peng Tuo seemed to have found a backbone, but they did not want to fight with Liu Zhang. Peng Tuo said hesitantly: "Commander, it's not that Peng Tuo is afraid of death, but Liu Zhang's strength is really not what we can do. Resistance. If you fight forcefully, you will probably fail!"
Zhang Mancheng also knew that Liu Zhang was powerful, but now they were surrounded and had to choose a side to rush over. Although Zhu Jun and Qin Jie were not as powerful as Liu Zhang, there was no living space for the Yellow Turban thieves in the south. Zhang Mancheng's best choice was to go north to join Zhang Jiao. However, even if he wants to go north, he must first convince Peng Tuo.
Zhang Mancheng thought for a while and said: "Brother, Liu Zhang is indeed powerful, but we must break through, otherwise we will die here! Although Zhu Jun's place is easier to fight, if we want to survive, we must join forces with the great virtuous master, otherwise we will only rely on us His power will be destroyed by Liu Zhang sooner or later."
"I can't rush through!" Peng Tuo said with a bitter smile: "Liu Zhang seems to be deliberately forcing me towards Wancheng. I think he wants to eliminate us in this area."
Zhang Mancheng was well versed in the art of war. He ordered someone to bring a map and said: "Two brothers, please take a look. Liu Zhang should be near Yangzhai. We will pass through Xiangcheng, enter Yanzhou from Xuchang, and go straight to Jizhou. This area is mostly covered with mountains and forests. It's perfect for our Yellow Turban operation, Liu Zhang can't stop it even if he wants to!"
"This..." Peng Tuo looked at Zhang Mancheng and said, "Just listen to Brother Zhang and fight!"
"Okay!" Zhang Mancheng said: "Give the order, the two armies will join together, and we will set off! If anyone is unwilling to leave, just leave him to Zhu Jun and Liu Zhang!"
Since Peng Tuo agreed to Zhang Mancheng's suggestion, the two armies immediately formed a unit and headed for Xiangcheng. But if the Yellow Turban Army wanted to go to Jizhou, there was still a big problem, that is, there was no army rations. Of course, Peng Tuo and Zhang Mancheng could plunder on the way. However, Zhang Mancheng was smarter and chose to pass by quietly to avoid leaking his whereabouts and being discovered by Liu Zhang. As for the lack of military rations, he would gather the entire army's rations and give them to the elite troops, and by the way, he would slaughter all the villages he met on the way and rob the food and grass. .As for those who could not bear the hunger and ran away, Zhang Mancheng and Peng Tuo had no control over them.
Peng Tuo was driven away by Liu Zhang, and Yangzhai was safe. Chen Qun and Xun Yu persisted at the top of the city for ten days. When Peng Tuo retreated, they finally couldn't hold on any longer. However, they did not go down to the city; Liu Zhang silently stood on the top of the city and watched Liu Zhang gather his troops below the city. Liu Zhang did not enter Yangzhai, and even Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai did not go to see their two old friends.
After gathering his troops, Liu Zhang immediately launched his troops to pursue Peng Tuo. Looking at Liu Zhang walking away and the two thin figures beside Liu Zhang, Xun Yu and Chen Qun knew that Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai were enemies rather than friends from now on. , they whispered in their hearts: "Zhicai, Filial piety, see you in the future!"
