Chapter 128: Reversal of the Situation

Since there was no Zuo Feng's trouble, Lu Zhi also led the official army in Jizhou. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThe official army in Jizhou continued to fight with the Yellow Turbans, and the Yellow Turban Army was unable to break through the defenses of the official army, and was even seized by Lu Zhi and killed more than 10,000 people. Zhang Jiao was so distressed that tears came out.

No way, the tactics of the Yellow Turbans are too backward. Field battles are generally decided by military generals, and after the generals win, the whole army presses up. This is also due to the fact that the Yellow Turban Army as a whole is composed of infantry, there are not many cavalry, and most of the Yellow Turban soldiers are peasants who have just put down their hoes. In terms of siege warfare, the siege equipment of the Yellow Turban Army was very rudimentary, and it was simply piled up with human lives.

Liu Yu gave some suggestions for the special situation of this era.

First of all, taking advantage of the strong advantages of the officers and generals of the army and fighting the generals, they constantly killed and injured the opponent's generals in the way of fighting generals. Without the leadership of military generals, the yellow scarves are a piece of scattered sand. Second, they used the strategy of propaganda to surrender and avoid death, and to surrender to sincerity and meritorious service, and vigorously won over those who were wavering or greedy for life and afraid of death in the Yellow Turban Party.

Lu Zhi and others agreed with Liu Yu's suggestion and adopted this method.

At the beginning, there were many generals in the Yellow Turbans, and many Yellow Turban generals grew up very quickly after the baptism of war. However, some of the Yellow Turban generals were deluded by the victory in front of them and began to become arrogant or extravagant and corrupt. The official army seized this opportunity, and when they were fighting generals, they sent Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Huang Zhong and other fierce generals to continuously eliminate the generals of the Yellow Turban. Without the yellow scarves of the generals, it is really as Liu Yu said, a plate of scattered sand, and it was broken by the officials and soldiers. When Zhang Jiao discovered the poisonous plan of the official army, it was already a little late, and many generals had already been murdered. Zhang Jiao made a decision immediately, and regardless of the dignity of this era, he ordered not to fight with the officers and soldiers. At the same time, the news of the surrender of the official army was also learned by Zhang Jiao. Although Zhang Jiao was very confident in his subordinates, in order to prevent accidents, he also strengthened the ideological work of his subordinates, promised a lot of benefits, and also took out a part of the treasures seized before to reward his subordinates. Under the combination of grace and power, the unity of the Yellow Turban Party has become stronger.

Zhang Jiao thought to himself that as long as the Yellow Turban Army was like an iron pass, the officers and troops would have no way to start, as long as Ying Chuan Bocai led the Yellow Turban Army to eliminate the main force of the encircled officers and troops, he could go north to Jizhou and attack the officers and troops in Jizhou on both sides. At that time, the two main forces of the official army were destroyed, and there was no longer any force to stop the footsteps of the Yellow Turban Army. Zhang Jiao can enter Luoyang and cut off the head of the Dog Emperor. Victory ultimately belongs to Taipingdao, and it belongs to him.

Ideals are often beautiful, but reality is always cruel. The Yingchuan Yellow Turban Bocai army, which was pinned on by Zhang Jiao, was annihilated by the counterattack of the Han army.

Zhu Jun led a large army to fight against the Yellow Turban Army's Bocai Division first, but was defeated due to various reasons. In desperation, Huangfu Song led an army and Zhu Jun to retreat to Changshe. Bocai was overjoyed, and led a large army to surround Changshe, constantly attacking, in order to completely annihilate the official army.

At that time, the official army in Changshe City was defeated for the first time, with heavy casualties and low morale. And the number of yellow turbans besieging the city is huge, and the sound is terrifying. The enemy was outnumbered, and he couldn't break through, and the officers and soldiers in the long company were panicked, and the army was terrified. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun constantly comforted their subordinates, thinking about strategies to break the enemy day and night, but they had no countermeasures.

"Gongwei, our army is trapped in Changshe, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that the day of destruction will not be long before it." Huangfu Song said distressedly.

"If I hadn't underestimated the enemy, I wouldn't be in this predicament. I, Zhu Jun, am really a sinner of the Han Dynasty through the ages. Zhu Jun blamed himself.

"It's useless to talk too much, it's important to think about breaking the enemy at this time." Huangfu Song interrupted Zhu Jun.

"I have reported the military situation to the imperial court, and I have received a reply from the imperial court today, and the general has sent Cao Cao, the cavalry captain, to lead three thousand cavalry to help. It is estimated that it will be there soon, and when the time comes, we will be able to break through successfully with Cao Cao's cavalry on both sides. Zhu Jun said what he thought.

"The Yellow Turban is powerful, and the three thousand soldiers and horses of Cao Cao, the commander of the capital, can only be a drop in the bucket." Huangfu Song is not so optimistic.

Zhu Jun was silent.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were worried and couldn't sleep at night.

Until one night, when Huangfu Song was inspecting the defense of the city wall, he looked at the camp of the Yellow Turban army outside the city, and it was actually a camp with grass. A loud bang suddenly sounded in his mind, and Huangfu Song finally thought of how to annihilate the Yellow Turban Army.

"Gongwei, I've thought of how to annihilate the Yellow Turban outside the city. Just now I inspected the city defense, and found that the yellow turbans outside the city actually formed grass into a camp, and as long as a fire could burn them to the ground, I will take this opportunity to lead the army to attack and annihilate the yellow turbans in one fell swoop. Huangfu Song happily told Zhu Jun his thoughts, according to the current situation, the best way to break the enemy is to attack with fire.

"That's great, Yoshima." Zhu Jun was overjoyed.

The two of them were anxious about the whole army and were ready to use fire tactics to break the enemy, and the officers and men of the officers and men were all suddenly enlightened, and their morale suddenly rose a lot.

Heaven fulfilled people's wishes, and a strong wind rose that night. Huangfu Song ordered the soldiers to tie torches and climb the city wall, first sent the elite to sneak out of the enclosure, set fire to the fire, and then lit the torches on the city to echo it. The fire took advantage of the wind, and the Yellow Turban camp burst into flames.

Huangfu Song took advantage of this momentum and rushed out with drums. The Yellow Turban rebels lacked combat experience and panicked.

Bo Cai, who was resting, was also shocked, and when he walked out of the big tent and found that the fire was soaring, he hurriedly grabbed a panicked yellow turban soldier and said, "What's the matter?!" Why is there such a fire? ā€

The Yellow Turban soldier who was pulled saw that it was Bocai, calmed down, and hurriedly said: "Qu Shuai, the official army attacked and set fire at night, everyone is in chaos, what should we do." ā€

Bocai looked at the panicked soldiers, and was about to give the order when he heard the sound of the officers and soldiers killing.

"Catch Bocai alive! Promoted to three levels! Bounty of five hundred! "The officers and soldiers have already arrived. The Yellow Turban Army was unable to resist effectively at all, and the officers and troops were like broken bamboos, and they went straight into the Yellow Turban Chinese Army's big tent.

In desperation, Bocai ordered the whole army to retreat.

At this time, Cao Cao led 3,000 cavalry to rush over. Seeing the flames soaring into the sky, Cao Cao immediately made a decision and ordered the whole army to assault and rendezvous with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were overjoyed by Cao Cao's arrival and shouted God bless the Han. So Huangfu Song, Cao Cao, and Zhu Jun joined forces to pursue the Yellow Turbans with victory, and constantly killed the lone Yellow Turban Army.

In desperation, Bocai led the Yellow Turban Army to resist stubbornly, but unfortunately the situation reversed and there was no chance of victory. The Yellow Turban Army is like a sheep that has fallen into the bloody mouth of the tiger of the official army.

In the end, Bocai was beheaded by Cao Cao, and tens of thousands of people of the Yellow Turban Army were slaughtered.

The scales of war have tipped in favor of the officers and the military. Emperor Ling received the battle report, and under great joy, he issued an order to praise Huangfu Song, Cao Cao, and Zhu Jun, and ordered them to go north, join Lu Zhi, and annihilate the Yellow Turban Party in one fell swoop.

The imperial court spread the news of the destruction of the Yingchuan Yellow Turban to the world.
