Chapter 0121: Forced Landing in Quzhou City

Zhao Yun and Yue Fei rushed to the vicinity of Quzhou with a large army, and found that the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were densely gathered on both sides of the convoy, and tens of thousands of torches were burning in the night, and the firelight illuminated half of the sky. They looked at the Yellow Turban Army's grain and grass convoy in front of them, and they were at a loss.

In the previous time, they received news from the scouts that after the Yellow Turban Army left Quzhou for thirty miles, they suddenly turned around and returned to Quzhou, and no longer continued to rush to Boluojin.

Zhao Yun, Yue Fei and a group of subordinates were confused and didn't know what was going on.

The Yellow Turban Army didn't withdraw, why? Could it be that something happened on the battlefield of Ganling?

"Is there any news from the lord?" Yue Fei asked.

No one answered. They hadn't heard from Li Yi for five days. His last message was just two words: "Tailgating." ”

Tailgating instead of tailgating made Zhao Yun and Yue Fei very uncomfortable.

"The lord won't hide from us to take Bo Luojin, close the door and beat the dog." Yue Fei said suddenly.

Zhao Yun, Li Xun and Li Qiong looked at each other and shook their heads.

"From Geting to Boluojin, it is more than 600 miles away, and many places in the middle are areas occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, unless all the scouts of the Yellow Turban Army are killed, everyone can see it." Zhao Yun said, "Where did the eldest brother go?" ”

"The Yellow Turban Army withdrew into Quzhou City overnight, and the Yellow Turban Army in Quzhou City increased to 30,000 people. We can't be surrounded by people, we can't fight, why are we staying here? Li Xun said dejectedly, "Forget it, don't think about it, go back to sleep." ”

Zhao Yun laughed, stretched out his thumb at Li Xun, and said loudly: "High." ”

Yue Fei also shook his head helplessly and said, "Let's go, let's go back to sleep." ”

………………

The next morning, the Yellow Turban Army all withdrew into Quzhou City.

At noon on the second day after the Quzhou Yellow Turban Army withdrew into Quzhou City, Zhao Yun received a document from Li Yi, telling him that the main cavalry force had successfully ambushed 15,000 Yellow Turban troops of Chu Yan at Guchengting, and then attacked Bo Luojin, completely cutting off the enemy's way back to the north. Zhao Yun and Yue Fei were asked to lead their troops to boldly surround Qu Zhou.

At the same time, Li Yi sent this document to Yecheng, asking Wang Fen, the assassin of Jizhou, to do everything possible to raise soldiers and horses to rush to Quzhou to participate in the battle to encircle and annihilate the Yellow Turban Army in Quzhou.

On the third day of the capture of Boluojin, Li Yi ordered Guan Yu to lead the 3,000 troops who had just arrived in Boluojin to garrison Boluojin, and he took Zhang Fei, Gongsun Yue and others, as well as 3,000 foot soldiers and 5,000 cavalry, to rush to the city of Quzhou and join the two armies of Zhao Yun and Yue Fei. An army of 12,000 surrounded Qu Zhou.

The Yellow Turban Army in Quzhou City also had no intention of breaking through, but only stationed heavy troops to defend the city.

………………

At dusk, Li Yi stood on the empty field, looking at the majestic and majestic Quzhou City Tower, and watching the apricot yellow silk of the Yellow Turban Army flying on the city tower, and his heart suddenly felt much more relaxed.

He led the army to chase Zhang Jiao and Zhang Yan until they reached the foot of Guangzong City, but finally failed to catch up, and could only watch the two enter Guangzong City.

When he led the army to chase Guangzong, there were already more than 50,000 defenders in Guangzong City, and he only took 5,000 cavalry, so he couldn't help Guangzong City, which was high and deep, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Li Yi stood in the cool evening breeze, letting his long hair flutter, and he was crazy for a while.

Tian Feng and many of his subordinates stood in the distance, looking at Li Yi's tall body, and their hearts were full of admiration for him.

Since this man led the army south to Jizhou, in just over a month, he turned the tide and wiped out the more than 200,000 Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao. How many people in the world can have this kind of courage and courage, this kind of wisdom and courage?

It was getting dark.

Li Yi suddenly turned back to Tian Feng and said, "Strategist, you and them should go back, I still have to think about something." ”

Tian Feng glanced at him silently, turned around to leave, and heard Li Yi's voice again: "Yuan Hao......"

Tian Feng looked back at him, waiting for him to speak.

Li Yi said: "Ask someone to send a letter of persuasion to Quzhou City, let them surrender." ”

"Whoa." Tian Feng hesitated, but still agreed.

………………

The letter of surrender was shot into the city by Zhao Yun with a bow and arrow, but the Yellow Turban Army in the city has not reacted for the time being. Li Yi did not immediately launch a siege, firstly, he did not have enough strength to attack the city now, and secondly, it would take time for Zhang Baiqi and others to make a decision.

During this period, Li Yi received a letter from Huangfu Song from the Ganling battlefield.

Since Zhang Jiao and Zhang Yan returned to Guangzong, the situation of the official army on the Ganling battlefield was very bad, and the letter sent by Huangfu Song was to tell Li Yi that his troops had failed to attack Jieqiao, and hoped that he would send troops to Guangzong as soon as possible to force the Yellow Turban Army of Jieqiao to retreat, and then the two sides would encircle Guangzong City together and completely exterminate the Yellow Turban Army.

Of course, Li Yi agreed. It's just that Qu Zhou's enemies don't solve it, and everything is in vain. It is impossible for him to leave these 30,000 troops alone, it is definitely a huge threat to the back of his army.

Moreover, more than 200,000 troops of the Yellow Turban Army were buried on the battlefield of Wei County, and he had great ability to let Zhang Jiao have great ability, and now the deployment of troops is also stretched.

………………

On the fifth day when the letter was shot into Quzhou City, and the last day that Li Yi gave Qu Zhou time to consider, he finally got a reply from the city.

Everything went as Li Yi wished, and the Yellow Turban Army in Quzhou City agreed to surrender. But Zhang Baiqi increased his demand, and he asked Li Yi to let go of the soldiers and officers of the Yellow Turban Army in the city who were unwilling to surrender and leave.

In fact, the reason for the delay in replying to the letter at this time was due to a disagreement between several Yellow Turban generals in the city. Zhang Baiqi, Xiao Yan, and Fang Bao were willing to surrender, but Sun Qin was suspicious of surrender and was worried that he would be killed after surrendering. But he didn't want to fight Li Yi anymore, the previous series of battles had completely worn out the fighting spirit of this Yellow Turban Army general.

Li Yi agreed to Zhang Baiqi's request.

After the two sides reached an agreement, Zhang Baiqi acted quickly. Don't say that Li Yi is afraid of long nights and dreams, and Zhang Baiqi is even more afraid of long nights and dreams. He and Xiao Yan told Sun Qin of Li Yi's decision, and then summoned the commander of the Yellow Turban Army and an officer above the rank overnight to explain the matter.

Under the condition that they could leave Quzhou City smoothly, many officers who were clamoring for a bloody battle to the end did not squeak.

Zhang Baiqi, Sun Qin and Fang Bao asked all the officers who were willing to leave to leave. But unexpectedly, almost half of the officers chose to stay. Here are the commanders who swear to follow them, some probably lose confidence in the Yellow Turban Army and are unwilling to go back, and some are afraid that the enemy will regret or play a conspiracy and be killed halfway.

Zhang Baiqi then asked Sun Qin to leave Quzhou with the officers and soldiers who wanted to leave.

Fang Bud chose to stay. Xiao Yan also chose to stay. Zhang Baiqi also chose to stay.

Sun Qin almost knelt down and begged him, but Zhang Baiqi resolutely chose to stay.

"If Li Yi repents, I will take everyone in the city to defend the city until I die in battle, and I will never disgrace the Yellow Turban Army."

"I have no face to see a great sage and a good teacher. When I go back like this, I don't have the face to see the great sage and good teacher. If you must do this, you can take my head away. ”

At noon that day, Sun Qin went out of the city with more than 3,000 people who were unwilling to surrender. Along the way, the cavalry of the Youzhou Army disappeared like air, and not even a shadow was seen.

On the third day, the four gates of Quzhou City were opened, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army left Quzhou City from the west gate, and Yue Fei led 3,000 foot soldiers to enter Quzhou City from the east gate.

Qu Zhoucheng was successfully won.

Li Yi hosted a banquet for Zhang Baiqi, Xiao Yan, Fang Bao and other Yellow Turban Army generals in the Chinese army's tent outside Quzhou City.

Zhang Baiqi finally saw the cavalry general Li Yi. He looked silently for a long time, almost unable to believe his eyes, the famous Xiaocai general, the Xiaocai general who defeated more than 600,000 Yellow Turban Army, the man known as the "Yellow Turban Nightmare", turned out to be a young man who looked less than twenty years old.

"Does General Zhang think I'm too young?" Li Yi smiled, "I heard that General Feiyan in the Yellow Turban Army is also very young, I don't know who is older than him?" ”

Zhang Baiqi was infected by his enthusiasm and frankness, and his mood gradually relaxed. He smiled and said, "Swallow is twenty-four years old, a few years older than you. But he is not as good as you in war. Before leaving, I was ambushed by you in the ancient city pavilion. ”

Li Yi smiled slightly and said, "Who can tell the things on the battlefield clearly." Today I win, tomorrow maybe I'll die. Don't care about it, life and death, there is no certainty. ”

Zhang Baiqi and several people moved in their hearts, and couldn't help but be impressed by this young man. At a young age, he can see through life and death, which is really different from ordinary people.
