The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 885 Pengcheng
In the third year of Zhangwu (198), January [-]rd.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty offered sacrifices to heaven and earth in Chendu, inspected the armies, vowed to march eastward, and personally led the troops into Pengcheng.

The whole country is passionate and heroic, and the generals of the three armed forces have high morale.

The heroes from the six states marched with the army, and the powerful troops from all directions marched forward.

By the time they arrived in Suiyang, Liang State, the team had expanded from more than [-] people to more than [-] people.

Most of the extra [-] people are rangers who want to join the army, and the braves sent by the powerful family after they are ordered.

Among these people, some Jianyong were transferred to the Forbidden Army, some were transferred to the Yuzhou Army and Jingzhou Army, and the rest were reorganized into an army, and the emperor sent generals to command them personally.

At this time, the Yanzhou Army had already arrived in Pengcheng.

Sun Jing sits in Pengcheng, and reinforcements from all over the country continue to enter Pengcheng.

The wind and frost are different from the nature of plants and trees, and the festival of chastity and goodness is seen in the chaos.

The four hundred years of supporting scholars in the Han Dynasty are willing to go to the country with the Han Dynasty. How can it be rare?
When life and death are in danger, the ministers of the guards are still relentless inside, and the loyal men forget themselves outside.

Not only were powerful families from all over the world gathered in Pengcheng, but also many rangers outside Pengcheng who wanted to join the army.

The Yanzhou army had only [-] men, and the Pengcheng garrison had more than [-] men. The combined strength of the two sides was about [-]. Including the followers brought by Sun Jing, the strength was only [-].

And counting the local armed forces and rangers who gathered here, Pengcheng's military strength actually expanded to [-].

And that number is increasing.

Liu Xie's reform loosened the shackles that were tied to the tyrants of the aristocratic family, allowed them to recruit soldiers for training, and even issued official positions according to the number and combat power.

The nine-rank Zhongzheng system is used to reassure people, and the township military system is used to assign officials.

No one thought that after the emperor issued the edict, so many people would gather to respond.

Even Liu Xie himself did not expect how terrifying the waves caused by his edict would be.

Although there are many village braves and rangers gathered today, this number is far from the limit.

According to the report from the embroidered clothes envoy, there are still a large number of soldiers marching towards Pengcheng to help Pengcheng.

Roughly estimated, in a month or two, even [-] troops could be gathered in Pengcheng.

But the strength of the [-] troops cannot be forced.

Seemingly powerful, in fact, after all, it is strong on the outside and capable on the inside.

Although the powerful family can train the courage of the country, they are let go of the constraints, but they are not allowed to own armor and crossbows. Their equipment is weak, insufficient training, and their morale seems to be high, but in fact it is useless. I am afraid that the Ming army will be able to defeat it with a single charge.

All of this has been proven in Qingzhou and Jizhou, and the crowd tactics are meaningless to the Daojun of Taipingdao.

In the Battle of Qingzhou, Xu An led troops to raid Yuquan Pavilion, defeated [-] elite troops led by Cao Cao in one fell swoop, and then swept across Qingzhou. More than [-] Qingzhou soldiers quickly collapsed under the attack of the Ming army and surrendered as an organization.

The reason why it took the Ming army a month to recover the entire Qingzhou was not because of the persistence of the cities in Qingzhou.

It is because of the need to station in each city to properly manage the surrendered Han army and the residents of the city.

Even a large number of troops will become a burden and a disadvantage when fighting against the Ming army.

Not everyone can be Han Xin, the more you can lead the army, the better.

The defeat of the army is like a mountain, and the defeats one after another on the battlefield are very likely to trigger a chain reaction.

More people are Zhao Kuo, even worse than Zhao Kuo. Leading many soldiers in the end just collapsed faster and more thoroughly.

Although it was Liu Xie who was personally conquered by the imperial driver this time, it was Sun Jing who actually commanded the three armies.

Huangfusong and Sun Jian died in battle, and Gai Xun died. After the war, the generals of the Han army withered.

Sun Jing was the only one who could have enough prestige to be the chief general in the huge Han court.

Sun Jing, an army of [-], has never commanded such a number, not even half of its hundreds of thousands.

At the time of the battle against Yan Baihu, Sun Jing led the army with the largest scale, reaching more than [-] people. Many of them were allies, and they were not actually commanded by him, but only in name. follow him into battle.

But even so, there is no reason for these soldiers to be disbanded.

There are disadvantages to having a large number of people, but there are also advantages.

The most intuitive benefit is that the morale of the Pengcheng defenders and Yanzhou reinforcements who were terrified by the strength of the Ming army was gradually restored after seeing more and more rural soldiers gathered outside Pengcheng. Gradually became high up, and there was a little confidence in my heart.

The advantage of having a large number of people is that it will increase the confidence of one's own soldiers.

Sun Jing mobilized all the brave men around Pengcheng, including the strong men in Pengcheng, and built a fortress outside the city.

Since the field battle is weak, then don't go to the field battle.

Commanding [-] to [-] people in battle is already the limit for Sun Jing now, and Sun Jing is going to leave the rest of the army composed of bravery and rangers to other people to command.

Sun Jing was going to divide the army outside the city into left and right armies to guard the flanks, and hand them over to the two.

Xi Zhicai is good at military strategy, if he is still there, he and Guo Jia should be the generals leading the partial army this time, but Xi Zhicai has died of illness long ago.

Fortunately, Yuan Shu sent Ji Ling to support this time, and asked Lu Qian to come with him.

Lu Qian was courageous and resourceful, and made outstanding contributions in the battle of Dongjun, and also made great achievements in the attack on Qingzhou. When Cao Cao was in Yanzhou, he appointed him as an officer.

The people who command the left and right armies have also been determined. After they gather in Pengcheng, the left and right armies will be led by Guo Jia and Lu Qian respectively.

The actions of the Han army naturally did not hide from Xu An's eyes.

Although the Eagle Wolf Guard had suffered quite a heavy blow before, as time went by, after the Eagle Wolf Guard learned the lesson, their anti-reconnaissance awareness has also increased. With the recovery of the intelligence offices in various places, they have also regained contact with the original Get in touch with Intelligence.

Today's Han court has slowly turned into the imperial court that is surrounded by wind again.

In Xiapi City, Xu An looked at the secret letter in his hand, and listened to the report from Yingwei Tiqi in the hall, his eyebrows raised slightly.

It has to be said that Xu An had envisioned many ways for the Han court to deal with it, but he never thought that Liu Xie would actually lead the imperial conquest.

Xu An's eyes were fixed slightly, and he looked at the secret letter in his hand word by word.

What he didn't expect was that the Han army was able to gather so many soldiers, although most of them were invincible countrymen.

But this also reveals the background and horror of those aristocratic families.

If Han Ting is really given a few more years, and the inside of Han Ting can be concentric, perhaps it is still unclear who will win the battle.

Or change to another Beiting, not Taipingdao, but other feudal countries of the same kind, and the winner may be the current Hanting.

However, how can the current system of the Hanting be in harmony with each other.

In the final analysis, Liu Xie's reform was nothing but a failed reform, a compromise reform, a reform that did not touch the fundamental interests of too many powerful families.

Even if the Han court really won because of the reform, it would only push the Han court from one abyss to another.

But now, Han Ting does not have this opportunity to move from one abyss to another.

The opponents of the Han Ting are Tai Ping Dao, those Qianshou who have suffered under the oppression of the Han Ting, those people who have been abandoned and ignored by the Han Ting, and those people who have been tortured and bullied and filled with anger.

The raging public opinion is like a raging fire, which has been accumulated for decades, and can no longer be suppressed. Both internal and external, eight states are concurrent, and the world is in reverse.

Those skinny and scantily clad Guishou people gathered under Huang Tian's battle flag, their heads were wrapped in yellow scarves, and they fell down one by one, but they still went on, shouting "Wan Sheng" loudly and moving on.

They gathered under Huang Tian's battle flag, vowing to let the emperor of the Han family and those powerful families know that they are not allowed to bully and despise them at will.

They vented the anger in their hearts and vowed to overthrow the high emperor and general to the ground.

Then even if the fire was extinguished, the fire was still left behind.

And this little spark was brought to the Taihang Mountains by Xu An. Under Xu An's leadership, the original spark intensified, and now it has become a prairie fire, and has even swept across most of China. It boils.

The internal treasury was burned to splendor ashes, and the Tianjie was trampled to the bone!
This anger that ignited from the hearts of countless people and burst into the mortal world, until it swept through the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, swept over the Divine State, swept over the world, and swept across the universe...

After all the sins in this mortal world have been burned away, and when the world of Huang Tian is established, it will finally subside.

Troubled times are a game for aristocratic families, but the common people in Qianshou need to fight for their lives.

The death of Zhang Jiao made Taipingdao lose its direction and the situation took a turn for the worse.

However, the arrival of Xu An turned Taiping Dao into a safe place, and made everyone understand who the enemy is and which way to go.

Now Taipingdao has embarked on the right path, and everyone from the generals to the soldiers understands why they are fighting.

In the offensive and defensive battle of Shangyong, those Ming soldiers who risked their lives and went on to succeed did not fight for military pay and money, nor did they fight for dignitaries, emperors and generals.

Under the rule of the Taiping Dao, they had hope and the dignity they deserved as human beings. They were unwilling to return to the rule of the Han court again, to bear the heavy extortionate taxes, and to endure the oppression and exploitation of the powerful family.

Xu An closed the document.

Today's Taiping Road is no longer the previous Taiping Road, and today's Ming Army is not the former Yellow Turban Army.

Now his army truly has the support of all peoples.

The people here no longer only refer to those so-called powerful families, but the real people of the world.

Xu An didn't even take a look at the Han court crusade document that was presented on the side.

There is no need to read that call-to-action, even if it is written with hype and eloquence, so what?
All the generals sit in a row in the hall.

Most of the counties of Xiapi and Guangling have been liberated, Huaiyin and Huailing are already in their hands, and Gongsundu even took the main force of the navy into the Yangtze River and went back and forth.

"Have the captives in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, as well as the garrison affairs, been settled properly?"

Xu An looked up at Jia Xu who was on the side.

"It has been settled properly. All the captives have been placed in several large camps, and soldiers are left to monitor. The powerful families, family members and important figures from all over the country are concentrated in the government offices in the county. There will be absolutely no troubles. "

"For the issue of the garrison, according to the previous plan, the troops from Zhongzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou and other states were mobilized to Qingzhou, and now they have arrived one after another."

"Cities in Qingzhou have completed their defense changes, and temporary police forces have been set up in various places to maintain law and order."

"The city of Xuzhou has also completed the defense change, but the temporary police force has not yet been fully established, and it is expected to be completed within five days."

Xu An nodded slightly. He couldn't fully trust those powerful families who surrendered. Otherwise, if there was a fierce battle on the front line, there would be a sudden riot in Qingxu's rear. Once the food road was cut off, the situation would be extremely critical.

So he had already arranged a countermeasure early in the morning. Relying on the powerful military force, he directly controlled the powerful families and surrendered troops in Qingxu and Xuzhou.

"Here's an order that Lu Bu and Xu Huang will lead the army northward, and Qu Yi will lead the army southward."

Xu An looked around at the generals, the killing intent in his heart was not concealed in his eyes.

His gaze finally landed on the map hanging in the hall, and on Pengcheng in Xuzhou.

"Since the Han army is seeking their own death, let them fully understand the gap."

Xu An's voice was low, but extremely strong.

No matter what Liu Xie thinks in his heart, what kind of conspiracy and tricks the Han court sets up, in the face of absolute strength, everything is nothing but illusion.

"It's in Pengcheng..."

Xu An slammed his fist on the desk in front of him, making a loud noise.

"Completely defeat the Han court!"

……

Yingchuan, Yingyin County.

This is the hinterland of Yuzhou and the core area of ​​Hanting.

Only when Dong Zhuo was in chaos in the capital in the past, this place was slightly involved in the military disaster. Other than that, the repeated turmoil did not affect much.

To be precise, it didn't have much impact on Yingchuan's aristocratic family. Ordinary people in the head of Guizhou still have to bear heavy taxes like other places.

The singing and dancing here is peaceful, and the luxury and money fans have nothing to do with these small people in the head of Guizhou.

A high wall divides Yingchuan County into two worlds.

The aristocratic families live in the high-walled compound protected by family soldiers, while the small people in the head of Guizhou are restrained in the township of Juluoting, restrained in heavy work and farming.

Kunshan jade broken phoenix screamed, Furong cried and dew Xianglan laughed.

In front of the twelve gates melted cold light, and the twenty-three silks moved the purple emperor.

Not long ago, the Son of Heaven issued an imperial edict, ordering the soldiers from all over the world to gather in Pengcheng, and issued an impassioned statement, intending to fight to the death with the Ming army.

But in the deep house compound here, there are still bursts of silk and bamboo, the sound of music is constant, and the world is full of luxury, without being affected in any way.

It seemed that the situation on the front line had no effect on them at all.

　To tell a horror story, I was too sleepy at noon and wanted to sleep for an hour and a half, then I got up and continued to code, then I set the alarm clock and went to bed.

　　As a result, more than a dozen alarm clocks did not wake me up. When I woke up, it was already 9.26, which was outrageous...

　　I'm already stupid, I'm cracked
