"Kill!" Zhao Yun gave an order and rushed out with the army behind him, and instantly engaged in a melee with the Jizhou army.

On the battlefield, the shouts of killing were deafening, and the flashes of swords and sabers flashed.

The Yellow Turban Army rushed towards the Jizhou Army like a tide. They were wearing tattered clothes and armor, but their eyes were full of determination and resoluteness.

The weapons in their hands were varied, including long swords, short swords, sticks, and even some people used farm tools as weapons.

They shouted slogans, with high morale, and rushed towards the enemy without fear.

The Jizhou Army seemed a little flustered. Although they were well-equipped, they were unable to organize an effective defense line for a while in the face of the fierce attack of the Yellow Turban Army.

The soldiers waved their swords in fear, trying to resist the impact of the Yellow Turban Army.

However, the Yellow Turban Army had a large number of people and fierce offensive, which gradually put the Jizhou Army into a passive position.

On the battlefield, Chen Dao, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Zhang Mancheng, Zhang Yan and other generals led the way, waving their weapons and fighting bravely.

They were highly skilled in martial arts, and every time they attacked, they could kill a Jizhou soldier.

Their presence greatly boosted the morale of the Yellow Turban Army, making it more courageous and fearless.

As time went on, the Jizhou Army's defense line gradually collapsed, and the Yellow Turban Army began to gain an advantage.

They kept chasing the Jizhou Army soldiers and forced them into a desperate situation. The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the blood dyed the earth red.

Half an hour later, the battle was finally settled.

At this time, the battlefield was in a mess, with the bodies of Jizhou Army soldiers all over the ground, and blood flowing like a river.

The Yellow Turban Army soldiers cheered and celebrated the victory.

What Zhang Fu regretted was that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei all disappeared, along with Jian Yong and Shen Pei.

He stood in front of the burning corpse, frowning, his heart full of doubts and dissatisfaction.

He didn't understand why Liu Bei and others were able to escape, which made him very upset.

Zhang Fu raised his head angrily, pointed at the sky and cursed loudly: "Thief God, are you so partial to Liu Bei? What virtue and ability does he have to deserve your protection? I, Zhang Fu, don't accept it! The next time we meet, I will definitely kill them!"

His voice echoed in the air, as if it would penetrate the clouds. His expression was hideous and distorted, and his eyes were burning with anger.

Zhang Fu raised the Axe of Creation and drew an arc in the air with force.

The axe blade flashed with cold light, as if to tear the sky apart. His movements were full of power, showing his inner anger and unwillingness.

......

In secret, Shen Pei and Jian Yong carried the bodies of Liu, Guan and Zhang all the way, and finally lay down to rest because they couldn't support it.

"We can't stay in Jizhou now. Zhang Fu's strength is amazing. It's only a matter of time before the city is broken!"

Shen Pei's face was very ugly now. Zhang Fu's strength was beyond his original imagination, and it was much beyond his original imagination.

"What should we do now?" Jian Yong didn't know what to do now.

Shen Pei thought for a while: "Now if Jizhou is captured by Zhang Fu, the next step will definitely be Qingzhou, so Qingzhou can't go either!"

"The best place to go now is Xuzhou. Xuzhou Governor Tao Qian is kind and generous. We can go there temporarily!"

Jian Yong nodded, obviously agreeing with Shen Pei's proposal. So after resting for a while, the two continued to set off with the unconscious Liu, Guan and Zhang.

......

On the battlefield, Zhang Fu quickly calmed down after venting his anger.

He took a deep breath, and a trace of determination and determination flashed in his eyes. "Next time I meet Liu Bei, I will definitely take Li Cunxiao, Gao Chong, Yang Zaixing, Huang Zhong and other peerless warriors to fight together. I don't believe that I can't kill Liu Bei!"

With such a powerful lineup, even if Liu Bei is the son of destiny, he will definitely not be able to escape.

After resting for an hour, Zhang Fu continued to set off with the Yellow Turban Army.

They were in high spirits and marched towards Jizhou City with firm steps.

Soon, they arrived at the foot of Jizhou City.

The city is tall and solid, with thick walls, giving people a feeling of indestructibility. However, Zhang Fu was not afraid at all, but full of confidence.

Guo Jia stood beside Zhang Fu, looking at Jizhou City in front of him, and took the lead in speaking: "Lord, our army has been through a battle today. Now we should besiege the city on all sides, then rest for one night, and attack the city tomorrow!"

Guo Jia knew very well that the lord had invincible power and could easily break the city gate and lead the army to kill directly in.

But doing so may lead to some unnecessary casualties, after all, the army has not yet fully recovered to its peak.

If we can wait until tomorrow, the soldiers will be fullyrest and adjustment, then these unnecessary losses can be avoided, and the efficiency and success rate of the siege can be improved.

Therefore, he suggested to besiege the city first, so that the soldiers have enough time to recover their physical strength and spirit and prepare for tomorrow's battle.

Zhang Fu nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Guo Jia's opinion.

He knew that Guo Jia was right. Although he had absolute strength, war did not rely solely on personal strength, but also required the cooperation and support of the entire army.

Only by allowing every soldier to exert his greatest potential can the final victory be achieved, so he ordered the siege on all sides to surround Jizhou City.

As night fell, there was silence in Jizhou City.

The soldiers guarding the city watched the Yellow Turban Army outside the city nervously, and did not dare to relax at all.

They knew that this army had just experienced a fierce battle and its strength should not be underestimated.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army camp outside the city was brightly lit and lively.

The soldiers were enjoying a sumptuous dinner, and laughter echoed in the air.

This was their last moment of relaxation before the war, and also their expectation and confidence for future victory.

......

After learning that Zhang Fu and the Yellow Turban Army were outside the city, Lu Zhi's face turned pale instantly, his body trembled slightly, and his heart was filled with despair and grief.

He understood that his student Liu Bei had failed, and might even have died in the battle.

And the 30,000 Jizhou troops led by Liu Bei were likely to have been annihilated, otherwise it would not have been possible to get the news so quickly.

"Sir, don't panic now, we must immediately gather troops to defend the city!"

Ju Shou shouted anxiously, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.

He knew that time was running out, and every second could determine life and death.

Ju Shou gave Tian Feng a look, indicating that he supported his point of view.

However, Tian Feng stood up fearlessly, his eyes firm and decisive.

"Sir, the situation is critical now, and we must take decisive action."

"First, we should use thundering means to force the noble families in Jizhou City to contribute all the hidden private soldiers and death warriors to defend the city together."

"This is a critical moment concerning the life and death of the people in the city. Personal interests should give way to overall safety."

"Secondly, we can release the prisoners in the jail and let them participate in the defense of the city, and promise to give them the opportunity to reduce their sentences or exemptions if they successfully repel the Yellow Turban Army."

"This will not only increase the strength of the city defense, but also inspire the fighting spirit of the prisoners."

Tian Feng's words caused a silence, and the atmosphere in the conference hall became tense and solemn.

At least two-thirds of the people present were involved with the noble families, and they were naturally unwilling to accept this proposal.

The representatives of these noble families expressed their opposition, believing that this would damage their interests and status.

"Sir, please think twice!" A representative of aristocratic family said excitedly, "Our family's private soldiers and death soldiers are our property, how can we easily hand them over to others?"

Another representative of aristocratic family echoed: "Yes, sir, if we lose our private soldiers and death soldiers, how can we protect our family in the future?"

The people of these aristocratic families knew clearly that the Yellow Turban Army's cleansing of aristocratic families in Bingzhou was far less brutal than that in Youzhou.

Not only that, the Yellow Turban Army also appointed many children of aristocratic families as county magistrates, county lieutenants, county magistrates, and even some children of aristocratic families became county governors.

This undoubtedly shows that the Yellow Turban Army will no longer confiscate and exterminate families on a large scale as before, but will only kill those aristocratic families that have committed many evils and have a bad reputation.

In this way, other aristocratic families saw a glimmer of hope. As long as they abide by the law, they may escape.

Moreover, they can also become a powerful helper for the Yellow Turban Army to govern Jizhou.

Therefore, these aristocratic families are naturally unwilling to send troops to defend the city.

Because once they send out troops, the news will reach Zhang Fu, and they will surely be confiscated and exterminated.

People from aristocratic families are like this. As long as there is a possibility, it will be infinitely magnified.

Facing the opposition of the crowd, Tian Feng still insisted on his own opinion. He responded calmly: "Everyone, I understand your concerns, but now is a matter of life and death."

"If the city is breached, how can our family survive? At this time, we must unite, put aside our personal interests, and jointly resist the invasion of the Yellow Turban Army."

"Only in this way can we ensure the safety of our families and the lives of the people in the city."

Lu Zhi watched all this silently, hesitant in his heart.

On the one hand, he understood that Tian Feng's suggestion was correct, but on the other hand, he was also worried that offending the aristocratic forces too much would bring him more trouble. If he fell into civil strife directly, the city would not need to be defended.Finally, Lu Zhi took a deep breath and said slowly: "Mr. Tian Feng is right, but this matter involves great importance and needs to be considered in the long run. We will send people to find out the specific situation of the Yellow Turban Army before making a decision. At the same time, we must strengthen the defense of the city and prepare for the battle."

Although he did not immediately adopt Tian Feng's suggestion, Lu Zhi still appreciated his loyalty and wisdom.

He knew that in this difficult war, people like Tian Feng who were outspoken and dared to express different opinions were needed.

As for those aristocratic forces, he also understood that their interests were closely related to the safety of the city, and the relationship between the two sides needed to be properly handled.

......

The next morning, the sun shone on the walls of Jizhou, illuminating the flag of the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhang Fu stood in front of the formation, his eyes grim, holding the Axe of Creation in his hand. Behind him were neatly arranged Yellow Turban soldiers, who were in high spirits and waiting for orders.
