Chapter 3: The Storm Rises Section 42 (II)

In the big tent, Li Hong, Fu Zhu, Xian Yufu and Jade, Yan Rou, Xian Yuyin, Heng Xi, Lou Lu, and Shooting Yingtong were also discussing this matter.

Fu Zhi gently stroked his beard and said cautiously: "This news is not credible. However, if Zhang Niujiao is really dead, the contradictions within the ant thieves will intensify, and nine times out of ten they will split. At that time, if we don't want to send troops to fight, the ant thieves themselves will retreat to Taihang Mountain. If this news is true, it would be great. ”

Xian Yuyin suddenly said: "I think this news is true. That enemy soldier was Zhang Niujiao's guard, we saved him, even if he didn't appreciate us, there was no need to make a fake news to deceive us, especially the news that Zhang Niujiao died. ”

Heng Xi and Lou Lu nodded again and again, both supporting Xian Yuyin's point of view.

"What do you mean?" Yan Rou asked.

Li Hong said with a smile: "It doesn't matter to us whether Zhang Niujiao dies or not, the important thing is that we know that the Yellow Turban Army has suffered heavy losses and suffered a fatal blow to morale, and it is the time to attack while we are victorious." Zishan's news reminded me at the right time that this was an opportunity, a chance to defeat the enemy. ”

Frustrated, his face was full of admiration.

Xian Yufu said worriedly: "Today has just experienced a fierce battle, the soldiers are exhausted, and the physical exertion is very large, in this case, we continue to go south and travel five hundred miles to attack Handan, is it too risky." ”

Jade also chimed in: "Brother Yu Xing is very reasonable. With such a heavy snowstorm, it is very difficult for people and horses to walk, and supplies cannot keep up, so it is indeed dangerous to run long distances. ”

Li Hong looked at the three of Wangheng Sacrifice, Lou Lu, and Yingtong, and asked with a smile: "Do you think the physical strength of the soldiers may be supported?" ”

All three nodded at the same time.

"The wind and snow in Jizhou are much smaller than those in our northern Xinjiang, there is no problem, adults can rest assured." Lou Lu hurriedly said.

"No supplies? If we take Handan, we won't have supplies. Xian Yuyin said with a smile, "Yang Feng poured out of the nest, how many people can be left in Handan?" My lord, this time we still take the method of surprise attack on Nulu City, and send people into Handan City first? ”

"Handan City is taller and stronger than Nulu, and the garrison must be very vigilant after the main force goes north, and that method will not work." Li Hong said confidently: "This time we will find another way. ”

===

Early the next morning, the troops hit the road in the snow.

The wounded soldiers and the rearguard remained behind and continued to guard the camp and confuse the enemy who had retreated to Gaoyi.

Frustrated to send him off.

"Lord Changshi Chen can't get out of his busy business and rushed to see him off, so let me apologize to my lord on behalf of him."

Li Hong didn't have a good impression of this long history surnamed Chen, and waved his hand casually, indicating that it didn't matter.

"Lord Pan, the commander of the city, is injured and the defense of the city has to be rearranged, so he ......"

"Lord Fu is too polite, everyone is to pacify the Yellow Turban Army and ensure the safety of the people, so there is no need to be so polite. It's just that the supply of the troops and the wounded soldiers are all left to the adults. ”

Li Hong gave a deep salute.

Frustrated Professor hurriedly returned the salute and said with a smile:

"My lord, this is what the Julu County Government should do, although my lord is on the front line, I will give my full support to the rear. It's just that the child is still young and has been in the army for a short time, so please take care of the adults. ”

Li Hong agreed again and again.

Considering that Li Hong was not familiar with Zhao and other places, the Julu County Government specially arranged for Fu Hu to accompany Li Hong's army with a hundred guards of the county government, hoping to help Li Hong.

====================

Wang Dang stood above the lobby, his eyes wide open, carrying the bloody head of Master Wulu in one hand and the bloody war knife in the other, and roared wildly:

"Who else?"

The leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in the lobby were stunned, and they were silent one by one, and they didn't dare to shout anymore.

"Who else?" Wang Dang's eyes cracked, and he roared again, "It's still ...... Yes...... Who? ”

There was a deathly silence in the lobby, and the atmosphere was bloody and terrifying.

Chu Feiyan's face was pale, and her eyes were full of sadness and helplessness. Bai Huan's face was expressionless, his eyes were in a daze, and he looked directly at the corpse lying on the ground. Yang Feng sneered and looked at Wulu's head with interest, as if he wanted to see Wulu's fear and pain before he died. Sun Qin's eyes looked at the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army opposite, and a trace of murderous aura appeared on his face.

Eleven Lang quickly approached the lobby with a group of guards and stood outside the door. Blood was still dripping from the weapons of many soldiers. The blood dripping on the white snow under the eaves was extremely shocking.

Deathly silence.

An old man standing behind Chu Feiyan walked to the middle of the lobby and said slowly: "Everyone is talking about it, it is nothing more than saying that Chu Shuai is not the personal flesh and blood of the handsome, and he has no qualifications for inheritance. ”

He glanced at the big and small leaders in the hall and continued, "This problem is very easy to solve. ”

The eyes of the crowd immediately turned to him.

The old man said calmly and forcefully: "Dashuai treated Chu Shuai as if he were his own before his death, everyone knows this. Da Shuai has always had a wish, that is, he hopes that Chu Shuai can inherit the incense of his Zhang family and become a member of his Zhang family. Today, we will fulfill this wish for Dashuai. ”

"We all went to the spirit of the handsome, and in front of the handsome, let Chu Shuai return to his ancestors and recognize his ancestors. From then on, Chu Feiyan is Zhang Yan, the son of Dashuai. ”

"Does anyone disagree?" The old man asked coldly.

In the face of Wang Dang's war knife and Wulu's head, who dares to say half a "no".

He paused slightly, looked around, and then said, "If anyone dares to have any objections to Chu's inheritance of the Great Leader of the Yellow Turban Army, just talk to the Great Marshal." ”

Yang Feng stood up and said loudly, "Okay." From today onwards, the Yellow Turban Army will be led by Marshal Zhang. Let's go to Dashuai's mourning hall. ”

Everyone stood up one after another, followed Yang Feng out of the lobby, and walked in the direction of Zhang Niujiao's mourning hall.

Chu Feiyan sat alone and didn't move, gloomy and sad.

In order to overthrow the world and let the people live a good life, everyone entered the Taiping Sect and the Yellow Turban Army one after another. But now for the position of the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, it is really sad for the Yellow Turban Army to make trouble where he wants to kill people. Now that the Yellow Turban Army has reached the point of exhaustion, everyone still has the leisure to earn these things, and it seems that the climate of the Yellow Turban Army is indeed coming to an end. In fact, no matter who takes the position of the big leader now, he will no longer be able to turn the tide and change the fate of the Yellow Turban Army's defeat and retreat to Taihang Mountain.

The Yellow Turban Army suffered two major defeats, the two leaders died after taking the lead, and millions of soldiers were killed, causing the vitality of the Yellow Turban Army to be depleted. It is impossible to see the Yellow Turban Army of this scale in the future, and in the future, everyone will be at most a grass coward who occupies the mountain as the king. Can't these people see it?

"Dashuai, let's go." Sun Qin walked over and shouted softly.

====================

The dog swept in like the wind, looking panicked.

"Marshal, the Leopard Army is gone." The dog saw Chu Feiyan from a distance and roared loudly.

Chu Feiyan stopped in shock. All the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army were taken aback, and their faces were gloomy.

Chu Feiyan snatched out of the crowd and asked loudly, "Is the news accurate?" ”

"Absolutely, our men touched their camp at night. There was nothing in the camp except the wounded. The dog gasped and said loudly.

Yang Feng looked at Chu Feiyan and said anxiously: "Three days, today is the third day." If the leopards leave the gall the day after the big battle to carry out a new raid, they will be very close to their target. ”

Chu Feiyan's complexion changed several times.

"The most likely place for leopards to raid is Zhending. If he uses a surprise attack to seize Zhending, it will be equivalent to cutting off our retreat, and then we will only have to brave the heavy snow to go up the mountain. Yang Feng said, "If we turn back immediately, it is possible to block him and fight again." ”

"There are more than 10,000 defenders in Zhending City, and it is difficult for leopards to take down the city unless they use strange tricks. Marshal, or Yang Shuai is right, we will immediately withdraw our troops, strive to block him under the city, and fight him again. Sun Qin said loudly on the side.

"Do you think he's going to attack Zhending City?" Chu Feiyan turned around and looked at everyone and asked.

"Yes. If the leopard can't take the city in the short term, he may be blocked by us. Although this plan is a bit risky, the leopard has always liked to take risks with soldiers, and this time is probably no exception. A Yellow Turban Army general said.

"Dashuai, Zhending City has our food, our supplies, once Zhending falls, even if we retreat to Taihang Mountain, we will starve. Let's get back now. Eleven Lang agreed.

Chu Feiyan shook her hand at everyone and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

He looked at Yang Feng, who was silent and bowed his head, and said:

"There is also a possibility that he will attack Handan. Qizhi, if the leopard raids Changshan Zhending, we will immediately turn back, and we can still block him, but if he goes south to fight Handan, we can't do anything. ”

Yang Feng's heart was suddenly shocked, and he was a little confused. He and his subordinates are in Handan, and if Handan is beaten down by a leopard, it will be really miserable.

The leaders of the Yellow Turban Army all felt that the words of the big man made sense. The leopard goes south to fight Handan, which is safer, more reliable, more certain, and has plenty of time. The most important thing is that Yang Feng, who was originally stationed in Zhao State, and Bai Huanbu are now in Gaoyi, so far away from Handan, they are unable to return to help.

"Handan is more than 500 miles away from the gall pottery. Now the wind and snow are very strong, and the road is difficult to walk, if the leopard's cavalry travels a long distance to fight Handan, it seems a bit difficult to find out. Moreover, Handan City is tall and strong, and in this weather, it is impossible for his men and horses to attack the city. I think it's more likely that he attacked him. Yang Feng argued weakly.

"What does Bai Shuai think?" Chu Feiyan asked.

Bai Huan, who had been standing in the distance and staring at the sky in a daze, as if he had suddenly woken up, glanced at Chu Feiyan blankly. Chu Feiyan repeated.

Bai Huan smiled bitterly and said: "We have been chased and killed by this vicious leopard, and we are already covered in bruises, it doesn't matter where he attacked. But now the key is to keep the troops, to keep the Yellow Turban Army. I'll just go up the mountain. ”

"The marshal asked you where the leopard attacked, didn't you ask if you wanted to go to the mountain?" Wang Dang cried out. Just now he wanted to kill Bai Huan together, but Bai Huan skillfully dodged it. He was angry when he saw Bai Huan, a broken rich kid.

"Handan." Bai Huan said slowly, "Da Shuai is right, he wants to attack Handan." ”

Yang Feng let out a long sigh, looking extremely depressed and painful.

"Withdraw, immediately abandon Gaoyi, and quickly retreat to Zhending City." Chu Feiyan said resolutely.
