Chapter 12 They Are Not Yellow Turbans
Different from Chenliu County, which was fighting fiercely next to it, Hedong County has gradually restored its previous calm after experiencing the devastation of the war.
Vendors still maintain their normal business operations, and the common people should plant the land and go to work.The war didn't seem to have had a big impact on the people at the bottom. Except for a group of strange faces stationed in the government office, I am afraid that only the numerous bones outside the city can glimpse the cruelty and bloodiness of the war.
In the city of Anyi, in the mansion of the former governor of Hedong, a middle-aged general wearing a general's uniform and a long beard was handling government affairs.
"Mr. Yang, they are here."
A loud voice sounded, Yang Feng frowned, and ignored it at first.After waiting for a while, after completing the official business in hand, he looked up in the direction of the voice.
I saw a tall and burly young man with a resolute face stepping from a distance, and he was already standing in front of Yang Feng.
"Oh, it's Gongming, sit down."
Kneading his brows hard, Yang Feng felt a little tired.
Unlike other yellow scarves, he was born in Yang County, Hedong. Although he is far from a famous family in the local area, he is indeed a proper place.His father, Yang Zhen, has considerable power and status in the entire Yang County, and even in Hedong, and even with him, the young master of the Yang family, he has a lot of voice in Hedong.
It is precisely because of this that since Mrs. Guo led the main force of the Yellow Turbans to attack Chenliu, he has become the supreme leader of the Yellow Turbans in the entire Hedong.
"Why, is that group of guys who claim to be from the old department of the Great Virtuous Master coming?"
First he waved to his lieutenant general Xu Huang to sit down, Yang Feng seemed to have not recovered from the complicated government affairs, and only after a while did he remember who Xu Huang was referring to by "they".
It was about a month ago, not long after Guo Taigang took people south, Yang Feng suddenly received news that a group of Yellow Turbans were wandering around in Taiyuan, constantly annexing and integrating small groups of Yellow Turbans.
After all, the Yang family is also a rare big family in Yang county.Although it is not well-known in Hedong County, which is as powerful as clouds and noble as rain, it still has some sources of information of its own.
"The leader of that group seems to be a middle-aged man named Pei Yuanshao, who claims to be Shuai Qu, who participated in the Yellow Turban Uprising with Zhang Jiao?"
After roughly recalling the news he had received, Yang Feng just faintly felt something was wrong.
In my impression, Pei Yuanshao seems to be a reckless man with nothing but bravery, and he doesn't seem to use Zhang Jiao's name to gather trilogy and accumulate strength.
But after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
After all, Yang Feng was only a newcomer to the Yellow Turbans this year when Mrs. Guo rebelled in Baibo Valley.Although he has a certain status within the Yellow Turban Army in Hedong, his qualifications are really shallow.
He did not participate in the Yellow Turban Uprising four years ago, and he had no direct contact with those well-known Yellow Turban Qu Shuai, and his knowledge of Pei Yuanshao was only on paper.
"Could it be that I'm thinking too much?"
It would be okay if it was normal, but the sudden appearance of a large-scale yellow scarf would naturally arouse his vigilance.
But now, because Mrs. Guo's uprising in Baibo Valley is huge, there are a large number of foreigners who claim to be yellow scarves joining them every day, and it is impossible to distinguish them one by one...
In the end, Yang Feng could only bury his doubts in his heart, and didn't think about it.
Continuously dealing with the government affairs of twenty counties in Hedong County every day has already made him feel a little tired and irritable as a general, and his vigilance is no longer as strong as when he first joined the Yellow Turban.
"Hey, when Mrs. Guo comes back, return the government affairs of Hedong to him. It seems that the battlefield is more enjoyable than politics."
Yang Feng thought silently.
……
"Gongming, can you find out the origins of this group of people, what is the strength of the troops?"
"I heard that they had been wandering around Taiyuan and Hedong before, and never entered the city to supply supplies. Now they take the initiative to send someone to inform them that they want to enter the city of Anyi. I don't know what the plan is?"
Although he felt a little tired, Yang Feng still tried his best to pull himself together and focused his attention on the group of yellow scarves under the banner of Zhangjiao.
Although the great virtuous teacher Zhang Jiao has passed away for many years, as the founder of Taiping Dao and the first leader of the Yellow Turbans, his name still has a lot of appeal within the Yellow Turban system.
As far as Yang Feng knew, when this group of people were in Taiyuan County at first, they still relied on attacking everywhere to integrate the scattered yellow scarves.
But after entering Hedong County, it seems that many old people who participated in the first Yellow Turban Uprising had recognized Pei Yuanshao, and many people began to actively seek and seek refuge in him.
Even in Anyi City, many idle yellow scarves left the team in the past two days, wanting to join Pei Yuanshao's team.
"According to the news from the spies, this group of people appeared in Taiyuan more than a month ago, and they seem to have fled from Henan Yin."
Sitting beside Yang Feng, Xu Huang bowed his hands to him, and then said in that resonant voice like a golden drum:
"There is currently no accurate figure on the strength of the troops. However, many idle yellow turbans join them every day."
"Based on the number of joiners, the opponent has absorbed at least 1 remnants of the Yellow Turbans. But for some reason, according to the latest news from the spies, even with the opponent's original strength, the main force seems to be less than 1. .”
Speaking of this, Xu Huang's face stiffened involuntarily.
Unlike Yang Feng, who is obsessed with bravery and military strategy and hopes to sweat on the battlefield, although Xu Huang's appearance is more powerful than the opponent, and he is born with the determination and courage of a soldier...
But his appearance is different, Xu Huang has always thought that he is a person who likes to use his brain.Yang Feng has always brought him by his side and tried his best to cultivate him, and he also has plans to let him be his think tank.
According to the intelligence of the spies, when the other party first entered Taiyuan, there were about 5000 people in the army, but now they have absorbed the remnants of the Yellow Turbans for such a long time, and there are still less than [-] people. What about the extra people?
"Will it be dismissed in place, or killed directly?"
Yang Feng suddenly asked a question.
It's no wonder that he guessed so. Annexation and survival of the fittest among the Yellow Turbans are actually very common things.
Now is not an era of peace, the world is stable and rich enough to support enough population.In today's Han Dynasty, wars are frequent, farmland is deserted, and the excess population is screened and eliminated step by step by the upper-level power holders, which is a reasonable solution.
"No, that's not the case."
Just when Yang Feng was doubting whether the character of the other party was as bloody as he imagined, Xu Huang vehemently denied this guess.
"If they were dismissed or killed on the spot, there would never be any rumors, and this group of idle yellow turbans would not flock to them like they are now."
"unless……"
Xu Huang muttered in a voice that only he could hear, and after a while he looked at Yang Feng who was sitting next to him with some hesitation.
"Unless they can provide a stable living environment for those Yellow Turbans who have been screened out...that is to say, Pei Yuanshao is not the leader of this group of people. Behind them... there are other forces."
"They're not Yellow Turbans."
Chapter 13 Going to Town
Outside Anyi City, Zhang Yan was leading the team towards the distant city.At present, his trilogy has been expanded several times, and has reached the scale of more than 9000 people.
Except for the first 5000 people who were under Zhang Yan's direct control, the rest of the yellow turban young men who were reorganized later were all thrown under Pei Yuanshao's management and control, just in time for him to be responsible for training these new young men.
Not long after, everyone approached the city.
Zhang Yan looked up at the not-so-tall city walls of Anyi County, secretly thinking that if he had less than [-] people who wanted to capture this place, he would have a [-]% chance of winning.
After a while, Zhang Yan, who knew that there was little chance of a strong attack, shook his head. He still decided not to take the risk of attacking the city, but chose to send his soldiers to report to the city gate, and prepared to act according to the original plan.
"Old Pei, it's still the old rules. After entering the city, you say that you are the leader of this yellow turban, and I am your staff."
After whispering to Pei Yuanshao who was following him, Zhang Yan slightly controlled the horse and retreated a little, staying half a horse behind Pei Yuanshao.And Pei Yuanshao also nodded, and then the two walked towards the city gate one after the other.
The two of them had planned this before they came here. This trip was to pretend to be the Yellow Turbans who came to join the Baibo Uprising, to see if they could sneak into the city, so as to disintegrate the city's defenses from the inside out.
It would be best if you could lead troops into the city.And if it doesn't work, Zhang Yan intends to bring these more than 9000 teachers back to Luoyang.
After all, he has been suppressing bandits in Taiyuan and Hedong for more than two months.Now Taiyuan is still under the control of the Yellow Turban, except for a few cities inside, most of the area's banditry has been stabilized by him, and the people have begun to return to production, which can be called a remarkable result.
As for leading troops to attack the city, you must know that from the official point of view, Zhang Yan just led a team of 1000 officers to Taiyuan to suppress bandits. Even if you are unreasonable, Emperor Hanling, you can't ask others to bring 1000 people Capture a city guarded by tens of thousands of soldiers?
As for the remaining more than 8000 people, strictly speaking, they all belong to his private soldiers, and they are not counted.
……
"It's just a pity that this bottleneck has not been broken through, and it is obviously close."
Following behind Pei Yuanshao, Zhang Yan opened his system interface and took a look, feeling a pity.
【Current breakthrough progress: 84%】
The white font is reflected in Zhang Yan's eyes. Compared with the single number before, there are countless battle records under the number this time.
"Unknown Yellow Turban Soldier, April 188 AD, 4 seconds"
"Unknown Yellow Turban General, April 188 AD, 4 minute 13 seconds"
"Unknown Bandit, May 188 AD, 5 seconds"
……
Most of the dense battle records are the Yellow Turban Army or bandits who fought against Zhang Yan, and a few Yellow Turban generals are mixed in it.
Just a little bit, Zhang Yan can break through the shackles of the current bottleneck.It's just that with the sudden decrease in the number of bandits in Taiyuan and Hedong, Zhang Yan's fighting opportunities are also getting less and less, and the progress gradually stagnates at more than 80.00%.
"I hope I can bring people in, let me cause chaos, and go through two more battles, so that I can break through..."
After praying silently, Zhang Yan still remembered that he brought people here to suppress the bandits, in order to accumulate a lot of combat experience and strive to break through his own bottleneck.This is my original plan.
Later, with more and more other things, Zhang Yan recruited the generals of the Yellow Turbans and took in the remnants of the Yellow Turbans.In the end, I forgot the main purpose of coming here.
When I think about it, there are almost no bandits in the wilderness of Taiyuan and Hedong.
"Hey, I miscalculated. I knew I shouldn't let Pei Yuanshao play the banner of being handsome in the yellow scarf..."
With some regret, he glanced at the "Pei" flags that were everywhere in the army at the moment. Zhang Yan never thought that his original whim would seriously interfere with the main purpose of coming to suppress bandits this time.
Just about a month ago, Zhang Yan had just subdued Pei Yuanshao.In order to reduce the loss of his own soldiers in the battle, and at the same time, in order to absorb some of the young and strong combat power of the Yellow Turban, Zhang Yan ordered Pei Yuanshao to reveal his identity as the commander-in-chief who had followed Zhang Jiao in the South and North Wars, and wanted to try Try to see if you can directly absorb some small stocks of yellow scarves.
This idea is actually good, and it did reduce some meaningless battles at the beginning, and reduced the battle loss rate of your own soldiers.
It's just that as the snowball of their team got bigger and bigger, some large Yellow Turban forces even began to take the initiative to attach themselves to them.Slowly Zhang Yan discovered that he could no longer find a yellow scarf in Hedong County who was willing to fight with him.
"Miscalculation..."
Recalling his embarrassing appearance when he saw countless yellow turbans turn their backs and surrender with courtesy, Zhang Yan finally had no choice but to take the risk and marched towards Anyi County, the seat of Hedong, with his nearly ten thousand army.
He has no choice but to come here to try his luck if he doesn't want to go south to meet Guo Tai's tens of thousands of troops head-on.
If he is lucky and he is able to lead troops into the city, Zhang Yan is sure that he will come to the center that night and win the whole city overnight with minimal loss.While getting a lot of credit for yourself, you have the opportunity to accumulate enough combat experience.
And if he was unlucky, Zhang Yan could only admit that he was unlucky, and after resupplying, he returned to Luoyang with his initially integrated troops.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan couldn't help looking at the defenders on the city with eager eyes.
……
"Is the person here handsome Pei Daqu?"
After a while, the two walked under the city wall one after the other, and the soldiers who were sent by Zhang Yan to inform them were standing near the city gate and waiting for them.
Standing still under the city gate, Zhang Yan saw a simple-faced soldier with a yellow scarf on his head sticking out his head on the tower, and shouted downwards.
