The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 162 Turtle in the urn
The actual situation was actually far less complicated than Xu An imagined.

The Yellow Turban Army marched too fast, and the Han army in the north of Changping had just completed its assembly, and it hadn't even had time to build a camp for the troops who arrived later.

At this time, the vanguard cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army had already arrived. Wang Gong himself was just a county guard and did not have much battle experience.

Sima of the two counties of Shangdang County, Guo Huashang was in the south of Bachi Mountain, and Qin Xi had already died in Gaodu.

The regular Han army was only more than one thousand people, and the cavalry was even less, only about three hundred. Fortunately, those powerful families had a lot of horses, and they cobbled together more than five hundred horses.

It's just that after the forwards of the Yellow Turban Army arrived in the south of Changping, the scout battle just broke out. Those seemingly mighty and powerful family soldiers were not opponents of the Yellow Turban Army scouts at all.

Shangdang County is quite far from the border area, and it has been peaceful for a long time, but there are a few bandits, and the soldiers of Shangdang County are more than enough to deal with them. How can it be the turn of these powerful family soldiers.

The immediate skills of these mighty soldiers and generals may be pretty good, but the scouts of the Yellow Turban Army are almost all selected by the elite of each team, and they are established as scout teams. How can those powerful family soldiers beat them.

After several rounds of fighting, they lost all courage and retreated to their respective camps.

But even so, logically speaking, the scouts of the Yellow Turban Army would not be allowed to control most of Changping.

Fearing that the precious cavalry of the Han army would be damaged, Wang Gong, the county guard, ordered the cavalry to withdraw, voluntarily relinquished control of a large area, and successfully completed an assist for the Yellow Turban Army.

Among Wang Gong's more than [-] county soldiers, although some knew that they should not retreat at this time, the highest position among them was no more than a military officer, so how dare they try to dissuade a county guard.

The result of this is that the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army rushed into the surrounding area of ​​the camp of the Han Army without any hindrance, and those strong men and powerful family soldiers who had no shelter from the camp were just a wave of charges by the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army, and they all broke up.

And the rest of the sergeants who were temporarily summoned in the camp did not dare to rush out to help. After all, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army is not far to the south.

And Wang Gong was even more at a loss when he saw the sudden charge of the Yellow Turban Army.

This sudden shocking change was beyond his ability, and he was naturally good at governing the villagers and talking about scriptures.

But the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the military books that Wang Gong once read describe this situation word by word. .

There is no supporting Han army, no scolding from the generals, and no leadership from the chief general.

First came the defeat of the sergeants of the first battalion, the slaves of those tyrannical families who fled first, and then the young men who were summoned, and those tyrannical soldiers and generals.

The entire camp of the Han army in the north of Changping was in chaos because two cavalry from the Yellow Turban Army, Xu Huang and Gong Du, joined.

Wang Gong was at a loss, and just ordered to stick to the camp, but at this time Xu An had sent He Man and Zhang Yan to lead the army to kill.

In front of the Yellow Turban army, the front turban army, and even a sergeant in a camp opened the gate of the camp and fled north.

The earth-yellow torrent overflowed the land like water leaking out of Yinchuan, flooding the camp of the Han army in the north of Changping.

The Yellow Turban Army of the brigade crossed the hills and the wilderness and rushed into the tide of the fleeing Han soldiers, bringing a bloody storm

The defeated soldiers of the Han army were driven back by the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army and fled away.

The defeated soldiers of the Han army then crashed into the chaotic front of the rest of the Han army. Amid the screams of the Yellow Turban Army's roar and tsunami, more and more Han soldiers began to collapse.

Xu Huang led the cavalry behind him to dash left and kill again, smashing through the formations of the Han army that were still stubbornly resisting one by one.

At this moment, Xu Huang saw a civil servant in brocade clothes standing on the wall of the best built camp.

Xu Huangfu was deeply moved, and he decided that this person might be the commander of the Changping Han Army.

At that moment Xu Huang didn't hesitate any longer, and got off the Hualiao seat with his legs between them. During the gallop, Xu Huang took down the Han bow hanging from the saddle.

The Hualiu horse neighed, and the war horse galloped up and down. When the Han army along the way saw Xu Huang coming alone, they all opened their bows and arrows, but they all fell behind Xu Huang's horse in a hurry.

With a tiger roar, Xu Huang bowed to the full moon.

But when he heard the sound of the bowstring, the brocade-clothed civil servant on the wall of the village fell down, and the surrounding Han army immediately became a mess, and no one cared about Xu Huang.

"call out----"

The whistle sounded, and the khaki wave had already surged, and a large number of short ladders were built on the camp of the Han army.

"Wan Sheng!"

Countless yellow turbans shouted Wan Sheng and climbed onto the wall of the village.

At this time, Xu An was finally convinced that the Han army had no tricks. As the drums of the Chinese army sounded, more soldiers of the Yellow Turbans joined the battle.

Under the pursuit and encirclement of the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army, only a small number of Han cavalry escaped.

In the Battle of Changping, the Han army suffered [-] casualties, and more than [-] people chose to surrender under the fierce offensive of the Yellow Turban Army.

According to the intelligence of the captured Han army, Xu An knew that the brocade-clothed civil official shot and killed by Xu Huang was none other than Wang Gong, the prefect of Shangdang County.

And these more than [-] Han troops are the family soldiers assembled by the powerful families in the county, as well as the last remaining Han army in Shangdang County.

In other words, after Changping was defeated, the Han Empire had no soldiers to use in the entire Shangdang County.

How could Xu An miss such a good opportunity? In the northern part of Shangdang County, Liu Pi had already fallen into a bitter battle under the onslaught of the Han army led by Lu Zhi.

More than [-] yellow scarves were divided into two parts by Xu An.

One, led by Zhang Yan, captured the eldest son and kept him there.

On the other side, Xu An took the Yellow Turban Army's pawns and elite battalion, as well as some sergeants, a total of more than [-] people, and went north directly to bypass the eldest son and Tunliu to attack Xiangyuan.

As for the logistics supplies, Wang Gong has already dispatched most of the sergeants from the pass to establish a defense line in Changping.

Xu Anda could send someone to send a letter into Taihang Mountain, and mobilize grain and grass from Taihang Mountain to Shangdang County.

Without the worry of food and grass supplies, Shangdang County has no invincible soldiers, and the entire Shangdang County is now a turtle in the urn.

On August [-]th, Zhang Yan's army rushed all the way, arrived at the south of the eldest son city, and besieged the eldest son.

At the same time, Xu An also led troops to pass through Huguan from the west. The Han army at Huguan had only about [-] men, and counting the people in Guanzhong, there were no more than [-].

Moreover, when the Han army saw the Yellow Turban army coming from the south, they already understood that the army led by the county guard had already been defeated in Changping. The Han army in Huguan did not resist and chose to surrender directly.

Along the way, Xu An ordered the vanguard cavalry to hold the banner of Wang Gong, the prefect of Shangdang County. The towns passing by along the way saw the Yellow Turban army passing by, and they all surrendered in anticipation.

Only those tyrants hid in the dangerous terrain of Tungsten Fort, but Xu An didn't pay attention to these tyrants now.

Xu An needs to capture Xiangyuan as soon as possible, control the northern part of Shangdang County, and rush to aid Liu Pi.

Lu Zhi now has tens of thousands of soldiers, although Xu An is confident of winning.

But what Xu An needs now is a stable environment to seek development, prepare for the coming troubled times, and accumulate strength.

If Lu Zhi was allowed to lead the Han army into Shangdang County, even if Xu An won, the casualties would be heavy.

And once the Han army repelled Liu Pi, it occupied the important passage between Bingzhou and the northern part of Shangdang County.

The initiative is in the hands of the Han army, and if Xu An wants to regain it, it will probably take a lot of manpower and material resources.
