Three Kingdoms Summoning: Peak Resurgence

Chapter 83: Yellow Turban General Bo Cai
"General, the Yellow Turban leader Xiang Yan is indeed a talented general, but that doesn't mean his subordinates are also talented. Our army has many generals. As long as we can take advantage of our advantages, we may be able to defeat the enemy. I already have a plan." Xun Yu said with a smile.

Xun Yu still had a strong sense of professional ethics. Since he had already promised Wang Yu to be his military advisor temporarily, he would fulfill his duties as a military advisor. In the case of a difference between superiors and subordinates, Xun Yu naturally could not call Wang Yu "Tianyi" as before, so he changed his address to "General".

"What's the plan?" Wang Yu asked immediately, wanting to hear if Xun Yu had any different ideas.

"Haha, this thief..."

Just as Xun Yu opened his mouth and was about to tell Wang Yu a strategy to defeat the enemy, he saw the gate of the Yellow Turban army camp not far away opened wide. Led by a Yellow Turban general, more than a thousand cavalrymen rushed out and in the blink of an eye, they were a hundred steps in front of Wang Yu's formation.

Immediately afterwards, another Yellow Turban general rode out on his horse, followed by thousands of Yellow Turban infantrymen, who followed closely behind the cavalry to protect their wings.

"Hey, this Yellow Turban general doesn't look simple. Could it be that the person who came out is the Yellow Turban leader Xiang Yan?" Wang Yu pondered after watching the Yellow Turban army's formation!

Unfortunately, Wang Yu guessed wrong.

The man at the rear led 7,000 men out of the Yellow Turban camp, and immediately rode his horse a few steps forward in front of the battle formation, shouting to Wang Yu, "Officers in front, listen up! Tell your leader to come out and speak!"

The visitor was none other than Xiang Yan's deputy general Bo Cai. Even though the Han army's reinforcements numbered two thousand cavalrymen at once, he was not afraid at all.

After all, times have changed. Bo Cai is no longer the Bo Cai of a few years ago. Under the guidance of his master Xiang Yan, he has gained a great understanding of military tactics and has become the second greatest general in Yuzhou.

That's why Bo Cai took the initiative to ask for a battle to eliminate this cavalry that suddenly appeared. More than 2,000 cavalry were a big fat sheep, so how could he miss it?

"The Yellow Turban bandits are the Yellow Turban bandits, and they speak just like bandits." After hearing Bo Cai's shouting, Wang Yu sneered in his heart.

However, Wang Yu did not show it on his face. Instead, he looked heroic and rode forward, shouting, "General, tell me your name. I will kill all the nameless ghosts under my gun!"

At the same time, Wang Yu secretly ordered the system to detect the five-dimensional attributes of this person to see who the person in front of him was.

[Ding Dong, Bo Cai's peak five-dimensional attributes: Command 96, Force 95, Intelligence 82, Politics 65, Charisma 79;

Bo Cai's current five-dimensional attributes are command 93, force 95, intelligence 75, politics 62, and charm 77;]

"It turned out to be him." Wang Yu suddenly realized.

When it comes to the Yellow Turban Army, many people may not take them seriously, thinking that they are just a group of skinny refugees with pale faces, a real mob, and the so-called Yellow Turban generals are naturally not taken seriously.

Take Bo Cai for example. Someone once commented on him like this: "Bo Cai is a clown, not worth mentioning."!
But it was this Yellow Turban leader who had defeated Zhu Jun, known as one of the "Three Generals of the Late Han Dynasty," head-on and besieged him in Changsha. If Huangfu Song had not come to rescue him, one of the three armies that were encircling the Yellow Turbans would soon have declared its annihilation.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was a famous "peasant uprising", which determined that the main force of the rebel army was a group of hungry "mud legs" rather than regular troops.

Therefore, the seemingly powerful but weak group of regular troops should be slaughtered and harvested like wheat as soon as they arrived. However, this army with the lowest combat effectiveness, led by Bo Cai, defeated one of the three armies appointed by Emperor Ling of Han and surrounded it.

In 184 AD, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Emperor Ling of Han appointed General Lu Zhi of the North, General Huangfu Song of the Left, and General Zhu Jun of the Right to lead three armies to suppress the Yellow Turbans.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were appointed to first attack the Yellow Turban Army that was wreaking havoc in Yingchuan, and the two divided their forces and advanced.

Not long after, Zhu Jun had a head-on battle with the Yellow Turban leader Bo Cai. Zhu Jun was defeated and Bo Cai led his troops to besiege Huangfu Song in Changsha.

Jun fought with the bandit Bo Cai and was defeated. Song then advanced to defend Changsha. Bo Cai led the army to besiege the city. Song had few soldiers and everyone in the army was terrified. - "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biographies of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun"

Huangfu Song's army was besieged in the city, the morale of the troops was unstable and the people were in panic. It happened that there was a strong wind that day, so Huangfu Song launched a surprise attack on Bo Cai's camp and set it on fire. Only then did Bo Cai's army retreat.

Coincidentally, Cao Cao, who had come to rescue Huangfu Song, also led his troops to help. Together with Zhu Jun, they combined the three armies and completely defeated Bo Cai and drove him to Yangdi.

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were known as the "Three Generals of the Late Han Dynasty" and were the last representatives of famous generals in the late Han Dynasty.

However, Bo Cai, who once commanded a group of rabble and defeated them, is not even qualified to be evaluated.

However, Wang Yu also knew that Bo Cai was capable enough at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, otherwise he would not have defeated two of the three great generals of the late Han Dynasty.

But the key point is that in the Han Dynasty where aristocratic families monopolized all resources, he was born into the lower class of the people. Even if he had a talent for military strategy, he had not received any systematic training in military strategy. He relied entirely on his talent to fight wars, so this lower limit could not be guaranteed.

This is also a common problem among many peasant uprising army generals.

Or they are extremely biased. In the field they are good at, they can achieve the results of a top-notch commander, but in the field they are not good at, they are like idiots.

As a result, their upper and lower limits were extremely outrageous in the early stages.

Only those who have been on the battlefield for a long time, gone through countless battles and survived can become famous generals.

However, things are different in this life. In the Yellow Turban Army there is Xiang Yan, a master of military strategy. Bo Cai's talent for military strategy has grown, especially in the past few months, he has been learning military strategies from Xiang Yan.

In addition, he fought with the master Wei Xiaokuan many times, and his understanding of the art of war became higher and higher, reaching the current point of 93, which is enough to be called a good general.

While Wang Yu was thinking, Bo Cai on the other side of him immediately rushed forward with his Pofeng sword in his hand and said, "Listen carefully, general. I am Bo Cai, a general of the Yellow Turbans. Who are you? Tell me your name quickly. I will kill all the nameless ghosts under my sword."

"I'm Wang Yu, Wang Tianyi. Today I've come to borrow your head." Wang Yu waved the Tianwu Blood Spirit Spear in his hand, making a beautiful circle in front of the formation, then looked at Bo and said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
