Chu Yan looked at the letter sent by Chen Xu and was a little surprised.

He didn't expect that since this person had such great courage, he wanted to annihilate the 3,000 cavalry of officers and soldiers in one battle.

With 3,000 rabble, fighting against 3,000 elite officers and soldiers, besides, the commander of the other party is still a famous general like Huangfu Song, where does Chen Xu get his confidence?

After reading the letter, Chu Yan summoned the leaders of the account and told everyone the contents of the letter.

"Chen Shuai meant that he wanted me to send troops to attack the county near Zhending and drag down the county soldiers in the city. He personally led 3,000 Yellow Turban cavalry to fight to the death with the old thief of Huangfu to avenge the general of Digong. ”

After listening to Chu Yan's words, all the leaders under his account were talking.

After coming over for a long time, one person said: "Chief, since we abandoned Quyang and escaped, we have no relationship with the Yellow Turban Army since then." ”

"Now that the Yellow Turban Army is at war with its officers and soldiers, we just have to watch from the sidelines, and there is no need to intervene in this battle at all. Besides, Huangfu Song is a famous general in the world, how can he be an easy person? ”

"If we send troops and anger Huangfu Song, we will definitely be surrounded and suppressed by him in the future. Therefore, in a certain opinion, it is better to refuse the request of the Yellow Turban Army. ”

"No!" As soon as this man finished speaking, someone else stood up and retorted, "Although we withdrew from Xiaquyang, after all, we were from the Yellow Turban Army, and General Digong also treated me well. ”

"If we sit idly by and ignore it at this time and don't avenge the general of the earth, how will the people of the world treat us?"

"Please also ask the general to send troops to harass the nearby county towns, so as to cover for Chen Shuai."

As for whether to send troops to help Chen Xu, Chu Yan's account was divided into two distinct factions.

The first faction was dominated by the teenagers that Chu Yan had recruited in the township, and they were afraid of Huangfu Song's troops and were unwilling to send troops to help.

The second faction was the Yellow Turban Army that followed Chu Yan and left Xiaquyang. Although they chose to save their lives at that time, they had a trace of affection for the Yellow Turban Army after all.

If they can defeat Huangfu Song and avenge the general of the earth, they are willing to risk everything.

Seeing that everyone was arguing, Chu Yan suddenly pulled out the sword in his hand and cut off the desk next to him at once.

When everyone saw this, they were shocked and did not dare to say anything more.

Chu Yan looked around and said loudly: "General Digong is kind to us, and I didn't have the opportunity to avenge the general before. But now, the old thief of Huangfu only has 3,000 soldiers and horses, if we refuse Chen Shuai's help, won't it make the world laugh? ”

"Besides, even if we don't wait for the rescue of the troops, after the old thief defeats Chen Shuai, he will definitely target us."

"How can you not know the truth of cold lips and teeth?"

"I intend to do my best to fight the three armies and cooperate with Chen Shuai to break through Huangfu Song, if anyone has any objections, it will be like this case!"

After speaking, Chu Yan pointed to the case with a sword, and everyone did not reply.

When everyone left the big tent and prepared for battle, Chu Yan looked at the top of the big tent alone, speechless.

After a long time, he said softly: "This time, can you really defeat Huangfu Song?" ”

In the account of the Yellow Turban Barracks, Wu Ling looked at Chen Xu and suddenly asked cautiously, "Qu Shuai, will Chu Yan really help us?" ”

Chen Xu chuckled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Believe me, he will definitely send troops." ”

Hearing the affirmative reply, Wu Ling's tense face became relaxed.

Although the Yellow Turban Army was very convinced of their own commander, as Huangfu Song got closer and closer, everyone still felt tremendous pressure.

After all, Huangfu Song's prestige was killed by force.

Since Yingchuan, Yuzhou, he has won the battle and conquered it. He used countless heads of the Yellow Turban Army to forge his current prestige.

Nowadays, when the name of Huangfu Song is mentioned in the Yellow Turban Army, although it cannot stop the sound of children's night crying, it is not far behind.

During this time, Zhending County, which has always been inconspicuous, has gathered the attention of the entire Han Dynasty.

First, Chu Yanxiao gathered more than 10,000 people and returned to his hometown. Then Chen Xu, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, led 3,000 Yellow Turban cavalry to set up a position in Zhending, wanting to fight to the death with Huangfu Song.

As the 3,000 cavalry of officers and soldiers got closer and closer to Zhending, the atmosphere here became more and more tense.

In the past few days, Chu Yan led all his subordinates to constantly attack and harass the county towns of Zhending, Zhengding, Jiumen, and Gengxiang.

The officials in the city made noise every day, and ordered to defend the city to the death, for fear that the city would be broken by Chu Yan.

After Huangfu Song arrived in Luancheng, he began to set up camp here, so that the officers and soldiers could recuperate first.

"General, the Yellow Turban Thieves have now set up a position in Zhending, why don't we recruit county soldiers from nearby counties to help in the war?"

Although the officers and men were very confident in their victory over the Yellow Turban Army, the thief general was not easy to match, and for the sake of insurance, it was better to recruit more officers and soldiers.

When Huangfu Song heard this, he took the battle report that Chu Yan sent troops to attack the nearby county town, sighed faintly, and said: "In this war, we can only use the three thousand cavalry under our tent. ”

When the rest of the generals heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised, and asked one after another, "Why did the general speak like this?" ”

Huangfu Song replied: "The thief Chen is encamped in Zhending, and he is putting on a posture of wanting to fight to the death with us; On the other hand, Chu Yan attacked the nearby county seat. ”

"He was telling me that he was not allowed to send other men and horses, and that he would only fight with 3,000 cavalry under his own account."

A captain sneered and said, "Thief Chen thinks that except for a few county towns near Zhending, we can't transfer troops from other places?" ”

Huangfu Song still shook his head and said, "No! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were full of doubt.

Huangfu Song continued: "The thieves are all cavalry, and if we transfer troops from other places, the thieves will not dare to fight us. ”

"In this way, they will continue to run around and harass all over the place, as they have done before. Dahan, I can't afford it anymore. ”

The generals looked at each other, and they understood what Chen Xu meant: either the two sides use 3,000 cavalry to fight to the death in Zhending; Either the officers and soldiers will increase their troops, and the Yellow Turban Army will once again wander around.

He asked Chu Yan to send troops to cooperate, the real purpose was to pass a message to Huangfu Song: Come on, three thousand against three thousand, fight to the death!

During the period when Huangfu Song took the tent to rest and recuperate, the Yellow Turban Army's camp was full of smoke every day, and the soldiers were smoked to tears.

"Chen Xu, what the hell is he doing?"

Huangfu Song, Chu Yan, and the people who watched the battle situation were all a little puzzled.

The sound of war drums rumbled, and Huangfu Song led three thousand elite cavalry to rush towards the position of the Yellow Turban Army with great momentum.

Facing a large-scale frontal battle with cavalry for the first time, the Yellow Turban Army was a little timid when they looked at the indomitable momentum of the officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers were getting closer and closer, and the Yellow Turban Army was becoming more and more riotous. I don't know who shouted first, then turned the horse's head and fled desperately.

Fear was like a plague, quickly infecting all the Yellow Turbans. They didn't care about the charge, and before they even started fighting, they had already begun to rout.

"No chaos, no chaos!"

Chen Xu led a hundred pro-soldiers and shouted hoarsely. However, on the battlefield where the sound of killing shook the sky, his voice seemed so weak.

The officers and men charged forward, and the Yellow Turban Army was crushed at the first touch. The officers and soldiers looked at the fleeing Yellow Turban Army, and shouted loudly one by one, wanting to come forward to chase and kill.

Huang Fu Song couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the strange scene on the battlefield. In his opinion, this Yellow Turban cavalry led by Chen Xu would definitely not be so weak.

"Could it be a fraud?"

"Mingjin collects his troops, don't pursue! Mingjin withdrew his troops and was not allowed to pursue! Huangfu Song reined in his horse and shouted loudly.

The officers and soldiers who were extremely excited and preparing to hunt down and kill the Yellow Turban Army for their meritorious deeds suddenly heard the sound of 'woo', and although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to pursue again.

A partial general came to Huangfu Song and said loudly: "General, the thieves are afraid of our army's front and are vulnerable. Why don't you go all out and kill all the thieves, but instead want to withdraw the troops? ”

There was obviously a look of dissatisfaction on the face of this general.

During this time, they have been following behind the Yellow Turban Army, and they have been led by the nose. Now that the Yellow Turban Army is about to be defeated, the main general does not allow himself and others to pursue him, and they will naturally have objections in their hearts.

Huangfu Song saw that everyone had a look of disgruntle, and he was not angry, but said: "Although the Yellow Turban Thieves seem to be about to collapse at the touch of a button, they are still quite orderly when they escape. ”

"Besides, Chen Thief is good at using soldiers and has many tricks. His subordinates are even more brave and good at fighting, and they are not afraid of death. The current battle situation looks so weird, it must be a thief's trick to lure the enemy. ”

"If you rush to pursue, once you fall into the ambush of thieves, you can't regret it!"

When the generals heard Huangfu Song's analysis, they suddenly realized. For a moment, they were all terrified.

"I don't want the thief to be so treacherous, if it weren't for the general's discernment, we would definitely fall for it!" The generals did not hesitate to praise themselves, and they all patted Huangfu Song's ass.

Huangfu Song's face did not have the slightest joy, but there was a trace of imperceptible worry: "Yellow Turban Army, what are you going to do?" ”

They only have 3,000 cavalry, even if they want to lure the enemy deep and then ambush, but where do they get the ambush soldiers?

"Could it be that Chu Yan is ambushed not far away?"

Although Huangfu Song was puzzled, he believed that the Yellow Turban Army must have a conspiracy, and if he went to chase and kill him desperately, he would definitely be ambushed by thieves.

Two days later, Chen Xu once again led the Yellow Turban Army to call for battle.

The generals of the officers and soldiers looked at the neat ranks of the Yellow Turban Army, and became more and more convinced of the guess of their own commander: The Yellow Turban Army must have been defeated last time.

"Kill!"

After the officers and soldiers set up their positions, they roared and slaughtered the Yellow Turban Army. But I didn't want to, and like last time, before the officers and soldiers rushed over, the Yellow Turban Army began to rout.

By the time they rushed to the Yellow Turban position, the Yellow Turbans had all fled.

This time, the officers and soldiers carefully observed, and sure enough, they found that the Yellow Turban Army was well-founded, and it did not look like a rout.

Everyone was afraid of being ambushed, and without waiting for Huangfu Song to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops, they automatically restrained the soldiers and soldiers to prevent them from going to pursue.

In the days that followed, officers and men engaged the Yellow Turban Army three times in a row, and they were all crushed at the first touch. And the officers and soldiers, as before, did not dare to pursue.

As a result, the whole really fixed battle situation actually made everyone a little incomprehensible.
