Chapter 4 Yellow Turban Bandits, Attack Wuping!
Panjiabao.

"Report, young master, it's not good. Fifty miles outside Panjiabao, a large number of thieves wearing yellow scarves were found, heading straight for Wuping City!"

A spy returned quickly.

Pan Feng's expression changed, he didn't expect these guys to come as soon as they said they would.

"Quickly, go to the city and report to the county magistrate Mr. Zhang!"

"Here!"

The spy quickly got up and left.

Pan Feng hurriedly shouted to Liu Sandao: "Close the gate of the bunker and put the army on alert!"

"Send out spies again and let them monitor the Yellow Turban army from a distance, don't get close, and closely monitor the enemy's movements!"

"yes, Sir!"

Liu Sandao clasped his fists and saluted, and hurried forward.

"Brother, what about me?"

Xing Daorong asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, with the foot strength of the Yellow Turban Bandits, it will take at least a day or two to get to Wuping City." Pan Feng shook his head slightly.

Although it is only fifty miles away from Panjiabao and the county seat, it can be achieved in half a day under the rapid march of ordinary troops, but for the Yellow Turban Army, at least it takes a day to start.

A group of mobs, as well as a large number of old and weak women and children, it is impossible to speed up this speed.

……

Wuping City, County Magistrate's Mansion.

"What? The Yellow Turban Bandit is here?!"

Zhang Ping looked shocked and jumped up.

"If you go back to the county magistrate, my young master asked the villain to report to the lord. This matter is absolutely true." The Tanma replied.

Zhang Ping forced himself to calm down, waved his hands and said, "Go down and rest first, I have something to say to your young master later, and you can take it with you when you arrive."

"Come on, reward!"

"Thank you, my lord!" Tan Ma was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly bowed.

Zhang Ping took a sip of tea, calmed down, looked at the aide Wang Ming who had rushed to the side, and asked, "Wang Ming, now that the Yellow Turban bandits are approaching the city, in your opinion, what should we do?"

This guy is also an official who bought it with money.

He didn't even know how to fish for silver, so Wang Ming had to find a way to help him.

Wang Ming frowned when he heard the words, and replied: "The most urgent thing now is to find Li Qing, the county lieutenant, to discuss this matter!"

"it is good!"

"Hurry up and ask Li Qing to come over, and say that there is an important matter to discuss with the Yellow Turban thief!"

Zhang Ping quickly shouted to the servants beside him.

"Here!"

The servants lead the way.

"Wang Ming, what else do you want to do? In your opinion, can you stop the Yellow Turban thieves this time?" Zhang Ping asked with some trepidation.

He has heard that every time those Yellow Turban thieves break through a city, they will kill all the officials and officials inside, ransacking their homes and exterminating their clans!
Even the country gentry and powerful people inside will be looted and slaughtered.

Anyway, those who have money will not end well, and those who have no money will be robbed, but they will not be killed.

"I heard that the young master of the Pan family is extremely brave, and he has two sworn brothers, both of whom are good at fighting. Now he has many acts of bravery, and he must be fighting against the yellow scarf bandits. Why don't you ask him?" Wang Ming pondered for a while. Make a plan.

He has been a staff member of the county magistrate here for several times. His family is one of the most powerful in Wuping County. He knows everything about the Pan family's affairs well, but he still has a little knowledge.

It's not just that the Pan family kept servants and servants, their family also kept them, or even the tyrants from all over the country kept them.

As far as those from the Pan family are concerned, they are still relatively few!
"Him? That's exactly what I mean, but I don't know if the young master of the Pan family is willing to send troops to rescue him..." Zhang Ping had a bitter face, thinking of abandoning the city and fleeing in his heart.

It's just that once he abandons the city and flees, it must be a capital offense if he is pursued by the court in the future.

Therefore, even if he is as stupid as he is, he will never know when he must never abandon the city and flee.

"Young master Pan is resourceful and good at business, so he must understand the truth that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold. He probably won't just sit and watch the county town be destroyed, but I don't know how many soldiers are available in this city now..." Wang Ming said hesitantly.

In this regard, it has always been the county lieutenant's business. They only think of ways to make money. They never thought that one day wars would break out everywhere.

"Good! Good! Good!" Zhang Ping was overjoyed when he heard that Pan Feng was willing to send troops.

Then, he said ruthlessly: "As for the soldiers, even if the county is not enough, there are Zhang family, Wang family, Li family, etc. Let them all send troops to help. If this city is destroyed, everyone will not be much better off!"

Wang Ming's expression changed when he heard the words, he hesitated and said: "My lord, I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle..."

It is simply a fantasy to let the tyrants succeed.

Unless the knife is really on their necks, they are unwilling to send troops even if they are killed.

They would rather use those servants to guard their homes than let them go out to fight against the Yellow Turbans.

Even if they know that after the city is broken, they may not be able to defend themselves and others, but it is still very difficult for them to be successful.

……

a day later.

Five miles outside Wuping City, more than 5000 Yellow Turban Army came towards here.

And there are less than two thousand old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers on the top of the city.

The strength of the two sides is not directly proportional, but fortunately, most of the soldiers of the Han Dynasty have armor, and a small number of poor soldiers have sold their armor.

Selling armor privately is a serious crime.

But no one cares about these at all, and even many generals are eating empty pay.

Even the county soldiers were withdrawn, because the world had been peaceful for a long time, there was no war, and the treasury was empty, so the county soldiers were all withdrawn, and the county guards had no soldiers.

There are also only a few soldiers in the counties all over the country to arrest thieves, ranging from a few hundred to two or three thousand.

Therefore, Wuping City still has a lot of soldiers.

In addition to the officers and soldiers in charge of these county lieutenants, there are also selfless and dedicated people from powerful families. Together, there are [-] people.

With 3000 people, it stands to reason that the city can still be defended, provided that this is a regular army, not the old, weak, sick, disabled and incompetent guys.

Outside the city, the Yellow Turban Army was very powerful.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous!"

He Man raised his arms and shouted.

The hundreds of yellow scarf believers around him raised their knives and shouted: "The sky is dead, the yellow sky will stand, the year is Jiazi, the world is blessed!!!"

These people are all regular Yellow Turban soldiers, believers before the Yellow Turban Uprising, and they also have knives in their hands, not those farm tools.

However, these people still have ladders to attack the city. As for the others, there is nothing.

There are no siege engines, let alone trebuchets, and there is only an indomitable belief!
"Brothers and sisters, for the peace of the world! Come on! Heaven is dead! Huangtian should stand!!!"

Following He Man's order, the tens of thousands of troops roared in unison and attacked Wuping County without hesitation.

The soldiers on the city wall saw thousands of troops coming towards here with a loud noise, and some timid ones were so frightened that they urinated directly, and many of them had weak legs and arms. Powerless.

"Mother Xipi, a bunch of cowards!"

Seeing this, County Lieutenant Li Qing couldn't help but cursed.
