The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 36 Yan Zhong
"Is it effective to train troops like this?" Gong Du was puzzled by Xu An's method of training troops. Taking advantage of the disbandment, he leaned forward and asked, "If you don't teach them martial arts, don't teach them battle formations, just stand there. Can we fight in the future?"

Xu An glanced at Gong Du and said, "Do you remember the next Quyang Han army sergeant?"

Gong Du was stunned for a moment, his eyes showed strong murderous intent, and he responded in a low voice: "Naturally remember."

"How many Yellow Turbans have been charging forward? They haven't broken through the ranks of the Han army warriors for several hours. Why?" Xu An asked back while touching the armor on his body.

"The sharp soldiers of the Han army, they have strong armor and sharp blades, and the army is well-organized. In their hands, they turned the tower shield into the Great Wall, just like the Great Wall that resisted the barbarians outside the Great Wall, blocking our hope of victory!"

His thoughts seemed to fly to Xia Quyang.

"Gong Du, you are a veteran of the battlefield. You should know what will happen if the military formation is washed away in the battle between the two armies?"

"You see, they can't even stand now. What kind of military formation are they talking about? Is it possible that in the future, like Xia Quyang, our military formation was rushed away by the Han army, but we could not break through the Han army's army formation? "

Xu An's words also reminded Gong Du of the battle between Quyang and the Han army. The [-] yellow scarves were all gone, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"More than [-] people in Quyang have been defeated..."

Xu An clapped his hand on Gong Du's shoulder heavily, and looked at Gong Du and said firmly, "We won't keep losing."

……

The banner of the Han army was re-erected on the city wall of Jingxing Pass.

Yan Zhong's face was gloomy and terrifying. He brought the army to the trick of being beaten by hanging sheep and the straw man on the city wall, which fooled him for a whole day, until the siege equipment was transported to Guanxia the next day.

The siege troops pushed the siege equipment to the bottom of the city wall, and there was not even a trace of resistance, only to find that the gate was empty.

And when the Han army entered Jingxing Pass, the "Jingguan" stacked inside the gate made these Han armies angry and made Yan Zhong's face even more gloomy.

Compared with "Jingguan", the arsenal of Jingxing Pass, which is almost half empty, is not worth mentioning.

The Han army's barracks was eerily quiet, save for the crackling sound of wood in the bonfire.

The roar of Yan Zhong suddenly came from the big tent of the Chinese army.

"go out!"

Yan Zhong angrily threw the bamboo slips in the middle and smashed them at a Han army officer in the tent. This was the third time that the generals under his command had asked for battle.

"I'll say it again for the last time, the military order just said 'Recover Jingxing Pass'!"

The Han army officer did not dodge and let the bamboo slips fall on his body, keeping his head down and maintaining his military salute.

"promise."

Yan Zhong was a Shangguan after all, and although the Han army commander was in a bad mood, he still complied with a promise and walked out of the tent.

Before Yan Zhong thought it was Jingxing Pass captured by bandits in the Taihang Mountains, but the trace evidence left in the pass showed that it was completely different.

There is no trace of blood or fighting inside and outside the gate on the west side. There are only a lot of footprints and ruts at the gate. On the contrary, there are many traces of fighting and blood on the gate and gate on the east side.

This proves that the bandits who captured Jingxing Pass were not from the Taihang Mountains, but from the east.

There are very few bloodstains on the wall, and it is obviously not the main battle site. The traces and blood of the struggle are concentrated in the Han army's garrison.

So the enemy should use some means to control the city gate first, and then attack the Han army's garrison.

Could it be the thief "Feiyan" near Zhending?
However, according to the local military information, the thief Chu Feiyan had gathered nearly [-] people, and the traces left by the thieves in Jingxing Pass seemed to be only a few hundred.

Yan Zhong shook his head and dispelled the messy thoughts in his mind. The sky outside the tent had already darkened, and his heart sank along with it.

Looking at the flickering candles in the tent, Yan Zhong spread out the letter on the desk.

The night slowly fell on the Taihang Mountains. It was pitch black outside Jingxing Pass. From time to time, there were a few strange roars of beasts and birds in the forest, adding a terrifying atmosphere to the dark background.

Dozens of black shadows rolled out of the brightly lit pass, and then drowned in the boundless darkness.

Inside the Jingxing Pass, there was no one in the tent of the Han army, except for a letter on the desk and an upright official seal.
