The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 39 The Battle of Wancheng Part One
For the next few days, Huo Yu went out early and returned late every day, he was extremely busy.The entire Guangzong City did not cause riots due to the reduction in the number of Han troops, and it has always been calm.Huo Yu sent people to appease the surrendered Yellow Turban captives and the people in the city, while waiting for news from Xia Quyang. In such an environment without entertainment facilities, life was quite fulfilling.

Huangfusong began to think about the next plan after receiving the news of Guangzong's fast horse victory. He happened to hear that Cangting Yellow Turban was very powerful, so he used Cao Cao, the riding captain, as the forward to command Cangting.Cangting Yellow Turban Qu Shuaibu was arrogant and took the initiative to lead his army to meet him. As a result, he was caught by Cao Cao's trick, and the lost troops retreated to Cangting to defend to the death.After Huangfusong's army arrived, he captured Cangting in one go, defeated Huangjin Buji's troops, captured Buji, and massacred more than 7000 people.

At this time, Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban in Nanyang, raised his troops and called himself "the envoy of the gods".Huo Yu was terrified when he learned about this, how could he forget Huang Zhong's family, damn it!But after a while, he calmed down. If Huang Zhong died in Nanyang, how could he still fight Guan Yu?Besides, according to later historical records, Qin Jie, the later prefect, defeated the Yellow Turban Army and beheaded Zhang Mancheng. If the prediction is correct, Huang Zhong should be responsible for this, but there is no record for some reason, and I don’t know how Huang Xu’s condition is. , There is nothing you can do now, just let nature take its course.

The trajectory of history has not changed here. After the death of Zhang Mancheng, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans appointed Zhao Hong as their commander, and the number of people increased, reaching 10,000+.Coincidentally, Zhu Jun led the army to join the three forces of Jingzhou Inspector Xu Que and Nanyang Prefect Qin Jie, a total of more than 8000 people, to attack Zhao Hong, and the two sides fought many battles.

Wancheng, which belongs to Nanyang County, has a long history and splendid culture since ancient times. In the Spring and Autumn Period, when Chu was destroyed and Wanyi was built, it was called Wan in history.During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Wancheng was the largest iron smelting center and one of the six metropolises in the country.It has the reputation of "Business is all over the world, wealth crowns all over the world".Zhao Hong was chased all the way by the officers and soldiers and fled to Wancheng.

"Hey hey... Qu Shuai, look at this little lady, she's so fucking white, look at this skinny and tender, she's even prettier than two days ago, the women from this rich family are just different, wait After he is so handsome, do you want us brothers to try it too?" In Wancheng, a local rich family was just broken into by Han Zhong and his gang of yellow scarf thieves, and all the men in the family were slaughtered, leaving only one family woman, surrounded in the middle of the yard.

Hearing this, Zhao Hong suddenly became angry, swung his right hand, and slapped the guy who spoke: "You dog, look at your ugly face! There are so many women here, you don't know how to choose yourself, old man You dare to rob someone."

The yellow scarf soldier who was beaten covered his right face in pain, groaning inwardly, and muttered to himself: You can't even pick up a worn-out shoe, so why bother?
Zhao Hong ignored this guy, and shouted to everyone standing in the courtyard: "Brothers, have you seen these women?"

"I see, hehehe" a group of people were drooling, their expressions were as disgusting as they were disgusting.

"Listen, as long as you hang out with me, I, Zhao Hong, will never lose you no matter what in the future. Except for the women in this courtyard, you can choose whatever you like."

"Willing to die for him, willing to die for him" After a few choruses of shouts, everyone rushed towards their respective goals like a rush, and there was a sudden panic in the courtyard.Zhao Hong nodded in satisfaction, then cheerfully picked up the most beautiful woman in the courtyard and went straight to the nearest room.

At this moment, the entire Wancheng was in misfortune. Several wealthy households in Wancheng were being looted by Han Zhong and Sun Xia. Countless gold and silver were plundered, and all the women were raped and humiliated. Thousands of old people and children were massacred.

Outside Wancheng, the Han army had just arrived, Zhu Xie looked at the thick smoke in the city and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"General, come to report on the horse. In Wancheng, the yellow scarf bandits are slaughtering and looting the people to vent their selfish desires." Sima, one of Zhu Jun's troops, reported to Zhu Jun angrily.

Hearing this, Zhu Jun gritted his teeth and said, "These goddamn thieves, send troops to attack the city!"

"The last general will follow..." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice
"No!" The person who spoke was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar, with delicate eyebrows, bronze complexion.This person is Xu Que, governor of Jingzhou.

"General Zhu, it is a taboo to raise troops out of anger. Besides, our army has just reached the point where we are short of men and horses, so it is not appropriate to attack the city."

"Are you just watching the Yellow Turban bandits slaughter the people?"

Xu Yan stepped forward to salute and said: "General Zhu, calm down, Xu is not a cowardly person who is afraid of death. It is really the time when the Yellow Turbans are in full swing. Wouldn't it be in vain for our army to send troops rashly? Wancheng besieged but not attacked."

Seeing that Zhu Jun didn't answer, Xu Yu said: "there are many bandits in the city, and they consume a lot of food. Just surround the city and wait until the food and grass are exhausted. Then the army will attack the city. Why don't you worry about the bandits not breaking it?"

"Alas! Even so, it's a pity that the suffering people cannot be saved."

"General, although this strategy cannot save the people who are suffering at this moment, it can reduce the futile death of our soldiers!" Xu Yan continued to persuade.

After weighing again and again, Zhu Jun said: "As you say, let these bandits live for a few more days, and I will definitely kill these bandits on the day the city is broken!" Then Zhu Jun ordered himself to lead the army to surround the north gate, Qin Jie Lead the army to surround the south gate, Sun Jian led the army to surround the west gate, and the rest of the generals went to surround the east gate!
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, when the Yellow Turban Army woke up in the city, they were shocked to find that the entire Wancheng had been surrounded by the Han army regiments.The Han army called for battle in front of the city, and Zhao Hong, Han Zhong, and Sun Xia climbed to the top of the city together.

"The Han army wants to trap us?" Zhao Hong murmured.

"Shuai Qu, you see that the Han army has been divided, and Ximen has the least force, how about we rush out of Ximen with all our strength?" Han Zhong stepped forward to pay homage.

"It's reasonable! It is said that our soldiers Ximen will gather, and this commander will break out of the city!"

"No!" The lieutenant nodded and ordered to leave.

When I was young, the west gate of Wancheng was opened wide, and a yellow scarf army of more than [-] people, led by Zhao Hong and Han Zhong, poured out of the city shouting.

Outside the city, watching the yellow turban bandits rushing in, a man with a hulking back and a torch-like gaze immediately stood at the forefront of the army with a knife in his hand. This person was Sun Jian and Sun Wentai.A descendant of Sun Wu, a military strategist in the Spring and Autumn Period.Staring at the yellow turban bandits who were getting closer, Sun Jian's mouth curled up coldly, and a sneer came out of his nose, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"You guys follow me to kill." With a loud shout, Sun Jian pulled out the ancient ingot knife and galloped away.The 3000 Han soldiers behind them stared at the approaching Yellow Turban thieves with fierce eyes, and rushed towards the Yellow Turban army in a neat array.When the two armies collided, there were screams everywhere, Sun Jian's path was unstoppable, and the four generals behind him were also unstoppable.It was originally the Yellow Turbans attacking the Han army, but now everything is turned upside down.

Facing the onslaught of the Han army, Zhao Hong was not timid. He raised his sword and rode his horse towards Sun Jian.However, the next moment Zhao Hong was in a tragedy. If God gave Rang Wan another chance, he would definitely not choose this way.
