Chapter 128: Removing the Yejiabao Threat

The Yellow Turban Army began to prepare for the attack slowly, and when the commanders gathered their personnel, they rushed forward and began to attack in an orderly manner.

Once the Yellow Turbans entered the battlefield, they basically lost their command and only knew how to rush forward and charge towards the enemy.

"Put"

As soon as the Yellow Turbans came within range of the escort battalion, the command staff on the wall began to order a salvo. The power of the salvo was enormous, and hundreds of people were killed in a single round.

But the Yellow Turbans will not be afraid, it should be said that they are already numb, a considerable number of people just can't eat and are dying of hunger, and then the Yellow Turbans give them something to eat and let them come to war, they don't know how to fight at all, and they command to rush forward.

"Ahh

The Yellow Turbans kept falling, and they kept rushing up from behind, and they had a hard time moving forward, because they had to meet the rain of arrows on the city walls, although there were only a few hundred archers on each side of the wall, but the hundreds of archers left the Yellow Turbans dead and wounded.

Because the guard battalion stood on the battlement of the city wall, they could still aim when shooting arrows, unlike fighting with Wu Huan, who had to carry a shield on their heads, and when they had passed the rain of arrows, they quickly removed their shields, hurriedly shot the arrows they had prepared in their hands downward, and then quickly picked up the shields again.

The commander of the Yellow Turbans would not command, and there seemed to be no other way than to ask them to charge.

Finally, the Yellow Turbans still rushed to the bottom of the city wall, but their rudimentary siege equipment doomed them to be unable to attack.

"That's the time, kill."

More than 8,000 guards began to charge on horseback, and the momentum was like a sharp sword, and it was quickly killing the Yellow Turban Army.

"Hey, the ground is shaking." These Yellow Turbans had never seen a cavalry charge at all, let alone a cavalry charge, so they didn't know what was going on.

The tremors were getting closer and closer, but the yellow turbans were still attacking the city walls, and they didn't know the danger was approaching.

The guard battalion on the city wall stood relatively high, and they had already seen the dust in the distance, coupled with the shaking of the ground, they knew that the cavalry was coming, and they also knew that these yellow turbans had no cavalry at all, so it was very easy to guess who the person who came.

"Ah, what's that?" When it was closer, the Yellow Turban Army was so frightened that they didn't even know how to run.

Nearly 10,000 cavalry, the charging formation, is quite terrifying, and they are still fully armed, full of armor, and a long spear in their hands.

"Kill."

Ye Chen was in the first row, and they approached without riding and shooting, and directly collided with them.

The cavalry in the front row of "Bang Bang Bang" directly knocked the yellow turbans into the air, and those yellow turbans became trapezes before they knew what was happening, but they had not yet experienced the thrill of flying, and they had heard the sound of broken bones in the air, and they had lost consciousness before they fell.

After the cavalry rushed away from the rear army of the Yellow Turban, they dispersed, and two cavalry were separated from the side, one cavalry led by Tai Shici and one led by Guan Yu, and killed them in three arrows, and the tiger head had been guarding Ye Chen's side, although no one here could threaten Ye Chen, but he was still unwilling to leave.

"Woo~"

The guard battalion scattered the yellow turbans in front of them with a single charge, and killed and injured a large number of them, many of the yellow turbans who were farmers before were completely frightened, and even sat on the ground and cried.

Ye Chen specifically rushed to a crowded place, rushed up and waved the overlord halberd back and forth, harvesting the life of the yellow turban, and they had no experience in fighting cavalry at all, they didn't know how to fight, some people knew how to run, and some people didn't know what to do until the spear penetrated his body.

The little marshals of the Yellow Turbans also knew that they had to resist, but they finally organized hundreds of people, and they were scattered by a charge of the cavalry, and every time they were charged by the cavalry, they were all killed and wounded, and after organizing a few times, the Yellow Turbans could no longer organize resistance, and were completely killed by the cavalry.

"Divide and surround.

The Ye family gave the results of the few yellow scarves in front of them and shouted on horseback.

Tai Shi Ci and Guan Yu both heard it, and the two separated, each heading towards a city wall, while Ye Chen immediately commanded the cavalry to divide the yellow turban in front of him, and each team of five hundred cavalry could divide a piece.

The Yellow Turbans that were divided had no power to resist, they were numbly driven around by the cavalry, and they had no sense of resistance at all, once they saw that the Yellow Turbans had a rallying call, the cavalry would charge up, waving spears, and killing them.

In the end, those yellow turbans didn't dare to stand together at all, and the cavalry would kill them as soon as there were too many people.

Those yellow turbans who were still besieging the city just now were completely stupid, they didn't care about the siege, they turned their heads, and looked stupidly, they were still besieging Yejiabao with twenty or thirty thousand people with fierce momentum, but now the killed ones lost their armor and collapsed.

The enemy below stopped attacking, and the guard battalion on the city wall also stopped, and the order they received was to defend Yejiabao, so they didn't receive another order, they didn't go out of the city to help, if they went out of the city to help, they could make the yellow turban collapse faster.

However, Ye Chen didn't think much about it, now that the following was completely the world of cavalry, and their infantry coming down would get in the way, which was not conducive to the cavalry charging back and forth.

"Surrender or kill!"

"Surrender or kill!"

"Surrender or kill!"

As Ye Chen shouted, the guard battalion shouted in unison, with a loud voice and full of momentum.

The Yellow Turban Army was completely demoralized, and the shouting of the escort battalion seemed to relieve them, and they all put down their weapons, and many even squatted down to hug their heads and cry, just now they experienced a massacre, experienced a long struggle on the edge of life and death.

Some of the guard battalions began to control the surrendered yellow turbans, and some still patrolled back and forth to prevent accidents, but in fact, this worry was unnecessary, these peasants who had just put down their hoes, after experiencing a bloody massacre, many people could not even stand.

The situation on the other sides of the city wall was similar, under the cavalry charge, they had no strength to resist at all, and they also lost the courage to resist, and in a short time, most of the nearly 30,000 yellow turbans were killed, except for a few who fled, most of the others surrendered.

At this time, there were only a few Yellow Turban irons, those who had joined Taiping Dao early in the morning and devoted themselves to the propaganda and development of Taiping Dao were still resisting, and those peasants who had been coerced in order to eat had surrendered.

These yellow turbans are only a few, at most a few hundred, they can't make any big waves at all, the cavalry charges back and forth a few times and they are finished, they are more just the courage not to be afraid of death, they have no experience in how to fight the cavalry, and they are also the cavalry in the charge.

For the cavalry in the charge, in addition to the heavy infantry, only crossbowmen or the same cavalry can fight, and for them, the infantry who do not even have good weapons, is not at the same level at all, and can be described as crushing.

The scene was quickly controlled, but Ye Chen and the others still did not stop the battle and still maintained their coercion.

It was inconvenient for the cavalry to collect and surrender the prisoners, so they had to let the guard battalion on the city wall do it, with Ye Chen there, there would be no problems on the scene, and I was not afraid that someone would be able to sneak attack successfully at this time.

The captives were taken in, and after some counting, a total of more than 13,000 people were captured, most of them were peasants who had been with the Yellow Turbans along the way, and most of the Yellow Turbans had died in battle.

This battle can be said to be quite easy, mainly because the Yellow Turbans were not organized, defenseless, and had no experience in dealing with cavalry, plus they had no static training at all and no unified command.

And Ye Chen's timing was also very good, when they were in the middle of their attack, they suddenly appeared from behind, and as soon as they appeared, they crushed them with absolute strength, completely beating them and losing their courage, so that they didn't even have the courage to resist.

Wait until the battle is almost over, and then the cavalry divides and surrounds them, dispersing their forces again, and at this time there is another forced landing, most of the yellow turbans can't stand it, and then a large area begins to surrender, and some diehards are wiped out after a few charges.

After collecting the prisoners, they were detained in an open space in Yejiabao, they had no weapons, there were guard battalions in the city with bows and arrows, and there were also 2,000 guard battalions under the city, even if they wanted to resist, they had no chance, no weapons, no courage, they were just a group of peasants.

The whole battle lasted more than two hours, of course, the yellow scarves here were solved, and Xiangping City was only a few miles away from here, and they had already gotten the news over there.

Ye Chen asked the guard battalion to start resting, dismount and eat, and there might be a battle later.
