Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 52: The Yellow Turban's Defeat

On the second day, after lunch, the yellow turban soldiers bragged together again as usual, talking about things that others didn't know, and the comparison was to see who said things were novel.

At this time, a voice attracted everyone, and only one soldier said: "Do you know that the brothers we escaped are actually fine, even if the Han army catches us, they will not kill us. It's a friendly reception."

As soon as this remark came out, all the yellow turban soldiers immediately set off a turmoil. The reason why the yellow turban soldiers did not dare to flee was because they were photographed by Zhang Liang, and more importantly, they were afraid that the Han army outside the city would catch them and execute them.

The soldier said slowly: "Let me tell you, you can't spread the word, or I will be out of luck."

Dozens of yellow turban soldiers around shouted that it would never be spread, and one soldier said impatiently, "I'm telling you, it's just a trick."

The yellow turban soldier looked at the expectant eyes from everyone, and said slowly and contentedly: "To tell you the truth, brothers, I was caught by the Han army outside the city when I went out that night, but they didn't make things difficult for me, but It’s about whether I would like to go back to be an ordinary person or continue to be a Yellow Turban thief.”

"Of course I meant to be an ordinary citizen. A man who looked like a general told me that I must never be a thief again, and then let me go after a few meals with good food and drink. I thought I couldn't just do that I left my brothers here, so I turned back to tell my brothers the news, I am leaving tonight." The soldier said half-truthfully.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, the yellow scarf soldier became anxious and said: "The general also said that as long as he wants to stop being a thief, it will not be difficult for him to go back to being an ordinary citizen, but if he is doing desperate resistance in Guangzong City, Once the city is broken, it will definitely be killed."

After what the soldier said, many soldiers believed it.

The same thing happened in several places of the Yellow Turban Army, and they conveyed a common message, that is, the Han army outside the city would not kill the Yellow Turban soldiers who escaped from the city.

Although the Yellow Turban soldier repeatedly emphasized not to tell others, the story quickly spread among the Yellow Turban Army. <.. ..>

It was night, and many Yellow Turban soldiers ran away again. Some of the Yellow Turban corporal leaders also saw what happened today, so they naturally tried their best to stop them. If you escape, you will definitely die, but if you escape, you will definitely die.

The next day, the Yellow Turban Army counted the number of soldiers in the city, and it turned out that more than 2000 soldiers were missing, including some corps leaders, special leaders, and hundreds of soldiers.

Zhang Liang was furious again, and Zhang Yan was still lying on the bed, so he had to behead a few more senior generals as a warning.

Zhang Liang's deeds not only did not calm these Yellow Turban soldiers, but made many Yellow Turban generals feel cold. Lying on the bed; today, Zhang Liang beheaded a few more generals, which made many generals feel sad.

After Zhang Yan, who was lying on the hospital bed, heard about this, she called Zhang Liang confused and fainted out of anger.

It seems to be to prove that the rumors in the Yellow Turban Army yesterday were not false. That afternoon, outside Guangzong City, the Yellow Turban soldiers who escaped and were arrested last night shouted to Guangzong City that they were doing well in the Han Army. Ri will let them go, and behind them stand Han soldiers waiting in battle.

This stimulated the yellow turban soldiers in the city even more. The yellow turban soldiers who were hesitant last night made up their minds to escape today. Having escaped so much, it was difficult to defend the city, so he also fled.

In less than ten days, the Yellow Turban Army fled for more than [-] people. Although Zhang Liang kept killing the generals in the army, he still couldn't stop the Yellow Turban Army from escaping. Sin, also took the lead in fleeing.

For a while, the Yellow Turban soldiers inside the city became the Chu Army in ambushes from all sides, and the Yellow Turban soldiers outside the city who said they were treated well in the Han army were like Chu Qu; He also cooperated very well, never attacking the city, and took the captured Yellow Turban soldiers to give speeches outside the city every day. . .

There are only tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers left in the city, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and the rest are diehard members of the Yellow Turbans.

Looking at the corrupt situation in Guangzong City, Zhang Yan, who was supported by the guards to patrol, could only do nothing. He thought that when the great virtuous master raised his arms and shouted, the followers gathered together like a broken bamboo, and the Han army who killed all the way abandoned their armor and dragged their troops. In just a few months, the Yellow Turban Army has reached its current state.

Zhang Liang counted the number of people every day, and continued his singing and dancing after getting angry. He didn't pay attention to the corrupt situation in Guangzong City at all. Beheaded by Zhang Liang for treason.

On this day, the Han army suddenly launched a fierce attack, with the momentum of vowing not to give up until Guangzong City was captured.

When Zhang Liang got the news that the Han army was attacking the city, he immediately ordered the guards to order Zhang Yan to lead his troops to defend the city. After receiving the order, Zhang Yan immediately went to defend the city with injuries.

This time the attack of the Han army was very fierce. Although the Yellow Turban army on the city repelled the attacking Han army again and again, the Han army was like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, attacking Guangzong City again and again.

The siege battle lasted until noon, and there was still no conclusion. Blood was everywhere on the city wall, and the corpses of the Han army and the Yellow Turban army were piled up under the city wall. Guangzong City was filled with a strong smell of blood.

At this time, only the sound of war drums sounded from the Han army. It turned out that Huangfusong saw that Guangzong City could not be attacked for a long time, so he beat the drums himself to cheer for the Han army.

Seeing that the main general personally beat the drums to help out, the Han army stepped on the corpses under their feet, and once again launched a fierce attack on Guangzong City.

Guangzong City was finally torn open by the brave Han army, and the Han army who got the breakthrough point attacked even more fiercely.

Seeing the Han army attacking the city, many yellow turban soldiers abandoned their armor and fled.

Zhang Yan killed dozens of fleeing soldiers, but he still couldn't stop the yellow scarf soldiers from fleeing.

More and more Han troops attacked the city wall, killed the Han army on the city wall, guarded the breakthrough point of the city wall, and waited for more robes to come up.

Seeing that Guangzong City was really difficult to keep, Zhang Yan also cared so much. He still shouldered the will given to him by Zhang Jiao, so he had no choice but to escape from the city wall with his cronies, and fled Guangzong City with Zhang Ning and a group of subordinates.

The main guards of the city all fled, and the Yellow Turban soldiers retreated one after another, some surrendered directly to the Han army, and some fled directly outside the city.

Knowing that Guangzong City had been captured by the Han army, Zhang Liang yelled at him, packed up his belongings in a hurry, and fled with his cronies to join Zhang Bao in Julu.

Guangzong City was broken, and Guangzong City, which had been besieged for more than half a year, was captured by the Han army.

When the Han army entered the city, Zhang Liang was nowhere to be seen. Huangfusong personally led the cavalry, led by several yellow scarf soldiers, and pursued outside the city of Guangzong.

Two-legged people can't run faster than four-legged ones. Zhang Liang was overtaken by Huangfusong's cavalry not long after he left the city. are inseparable.

Zhang Liang looked at the hundred or so Han soldiers chasing up, and then at the two hundred or so soldiers around him, and shouted: "If you kill a Han soldier, you will be rewarded with twenty guan, and you will be promoted to a higher rank." At the critical moment, Zhang Liang Liang didn't care about these extraneous things anymore.

Whenever money and power are available, hearing Zhang Liang's reward, these yellow scarf soldiers rushed towards the Han cavalry.

At this moment, I saw two cavalry rushing out of the Han army. One of them had red phoenix eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, long beard fluttering, and was holding a long iron sword; Holding the spear, he shouted: "Little Zhang Liang, take your life!" The sound was like thunder, and Zhang Liang's legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.

These two were exactly Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who followed Huangfusong. The two generals passed by, and the Yellow Turban soldiers had no single enemy.

No matter how much money you have, you have to spend it with your life. Seeing that the Han army is very brave, the Yellow Turban Army who was quite imposing just now broke up and fled in all directions.

Zhang Liang was captured alive. Although Zhang Liang kept begging for mercy, Guan Yu unceremoniously tied him tightly and threw him on a horse.

Back in Guangzong City, Huangfusong counted the losses and captures of the Han army, and then ordered the three armies to have a carnival to celebrate the victory of the Han army.

At noon the next day, Huangfusong assembled the three armies. Rows of Han soldiers stood there neatly, waiting quietly for Huangfusong's order. The big sword, the atmosphere is extremely solemn, and the people in the city invited by Huangfusong came with them. The people looked at the captured yellow scarf soldiers and pointed.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Huangfusong signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly: "The Yellow Turban rebels have messed up our Han Dynasty, and now Zhang Liang, the first thief, has been captured and beheaded..."

The knife and ax were raised and lowered, and Zhang Liang died.

Huangfu Song, also known as the Han Army, lifted up Zhang Jiao's tomb, slaughtered the head of the corpse owl, and sent it to the capital together with Zhang Liang's head to report victory to the Han Emperor.

At this time, Dong Zhuo, who was far away in Hedong County, was constantly cursing angrily. The reason was that Zhang Jiao died like this. He had besieged Guangzong for so long. But he died, and Huangfusong's great contribution was so cheap, Dong Zhuo can't be angry.

After Jia Rong came to Hedong County with the Xiliang Army, he was only busy with training every day, and he kept rehearsing his camp and cavalry. However, what the soldiers lack the most is the experience on the battlefield. During this period, Li Ru came several times and called Jia Rong a military training wizard. Therefore, Dong Zhuo reused Jia Rong even more.
