Since there are tens of thousands of people, it is not easy to camp every day.After failing to attack the plain once, the Yellow Turban Army began to set up camp.

They also had a lot of carriages, which they robbed along the road, a lot of food and grass, and some tent wood for building camps.

However, this treatment is only available to the regular Yellow Turban Army, and the refugees will fall to the ground nearby to rest.

Of course, there must be some food. In the evening, the Yellow Turban Army brought a lot of food here, made porridge and made cakes for all the refugees.At this time, the Yellow Turban Army still had a lot of food, and the nearby villages and towns were all robbed.

Therefore, the refugees can at least have enough food to eat, and their ranks are getting bigger and bigger.

In the largest camp, Guan Hai was biting a roast chicken, his mouth was full of oil.Relatively speaking, that girl appeared to be more refined, eating vegetables slowly and slowly.

"I said, Uncle Guan, what plans do you have after conquering this plain?" Zhang Baiqi asked Guan Hai.

Guan Hai laughed and said, "Speaking of which, General Tiangong told me that whether Pingyuan County can be defeated or not, Qingzhou must be occupied."

"So after here, just occupy the entire Qingzhou. In such a small place as Pingyuan, it won't take a few days."

Zhang Baiqi nodded, and then sighed again: "I really hope that our Huangtian Shengshi will be established sooner, the common people live so pitifully."

"Look at the refugees who followed us. Many people die every day. The weather is still too cold."

Guan Hai also had no choice: "So we must overthrow the big man as soon as possible, otherwise too many people will die."

Zhang Baiqi stood up after eating: "I'll go out and have a look. If it's too cold, I'll light more bonfires."

"Although there are not many trees here, there are still small saplings. I will get all the things that can make a fire. I will cut down more trees tomorrow."

"Okay... Bai Qi is worthy of being the daughter of a general, and it's really rare to have such a kind heart. Since we were born as civilians, we should naturally let more civilians live. Don't worry..." Guan Hai smiled, and then Also went out.

Zhang Baiqi went to the front camp to see how the refugees who followed the Taiping Road were doing, while Guan Hai went to the back camp mainly for tomorrow's arrangements and needed to explain to his subordinates.

When Zhang Baiqi arrived at Qianying, many refugees surrounded her. "Are you full? If it's not enough, I'm asking someone to bring you some food and grass. I'll find a way to get more wood later, so as not to be frozen at night."

After speaking, Zhang Baiqi asked his staff to take out some things like blankets, and distributed them to the elderly and children first.

An old lady knelt on the ground and cried: "Goddess (the daughter of the Celestial Master), we are full. I am a person who is about to die, and I don't deserve so much attention from the heavenly daughter."

Another old man also nodded: "I'm already sixty-three, and only a few days in the past ten years have I really eaten a few days."

"The old son was beaten to death by the squire, and now there is only one grandson who is only about ten years old. If the goddess does not dislike it, let my grandson follow the goddess."

"I don't want to see Huang Tian, ​​but I want to kill a few more country gentry, bullies and corrupt officials. I, an old man, will die without regret!"

Zhang Baiqi's eyes were also red, and she nodded: "Okay, anyone who wants to participate in our Taipingdao soldiers tell me, I will try my best to protect them, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will give it to him."

Soon... a lot of men and women in their teens followed behind Zhang Baiqi.Zhang Baiqi herself is actually not very old, but about fifteen or sixteen years old, but following Zhang Jiao in the scene, she also has a certain command ability.

Zhang Baiqi originally had his own army. Although the commander-in-chief of this team was Guan Hai, Zhang Baiqi had [-] elite Yellow Turban soldiers under his command, and even three Yellow Turban warriors who could be mobilized.

Yellow Turban Lishi is a kind of charm technique, which Zhang Jiao worked hard to create, and the number is not very large, because he loves his daughter, so he gave Zhang Baiqi three.

Every yellow turban fighter has the skills of a general like Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao, and is a great helper in attacking cities and territories.

After all, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao's skills are not bad among the second-rate.Not only can you fight in the Yellow Turban Army, but you can also release some simple Taoism.And the Yellow Turban Warriors are also based on them.

So Zhang Baiqi is very confident. Guan Hai's meaning is very clear. I am afraid that the area of ​​Qingzhou will be mainly responsible for the two of them in the future.

The Pingyuan County area is naturally also part of Qingzhou, so no matter what the two of them said, they had to pull out this nail.

Now Pingyuan County has no actual leaders at all, and Zhiyuan and Tang Tian are just managing Pingyuan County. After all, there are still many county towns and villages nearby, but they have nothing to do with them.

At this time, Zhiyuan had already quietly opened the gate of Pingyuan County.Zhiyuan didn't bring many people with me, only about [-] people.Their purpose is to create chaos, and the real ultimate move is the hundreds of cavalry.

The infantrymen all carried things that started fire, and there was also some pine grease collected by paper kites when building houses.

Animal oil is actually available, but that kind of thing ignites at more than 300 degrees, and it is really not easy to ignite at the beginning.Let alone oil, there is no such resource in this area.

Before Zhiyuan left, Xi Zhicai said to Zhiyuan, "As a general, try not to take risks lightly."

Zhi Yuan smiled: "I'm just telling them that they are not abandoned children."

"If you are a general, you lead the way, and your subordinates will not be afraid of death."

"I like to say to the people under my command, rush with me, not for me. I am a girl, and many times I can't live and train with soldiers. If I can't fight with them, how can I build a soldier? A real strong army."

"Li Guangke sucked pus and blood for the soldiers, but what I did was actually not enough..." Zhi Yuan smiled and didn't care.

The soldiers were really touched in the back, and they all said that they were willing to die for their master.

Xi Zhicai sighed: "It's a pity that you are a woman, otherwise, in troubled times, princes and generals will be around the corner."

"Hahaha... I don't look down on those princes and generals. I have my own ideas. I just don't know whether the future will be famous in history or will be infamous forever." Zhiyuan doesn't care what others think, as long as she thinks, she will go Do.

Then Zhiyuan looked at the soldiers under her command: "Taipingdao's approach is wrong, they won't succeed..."

"And I really have a way to lead you to build a world where you can have enough food. Although this road is more difficult, more people may die."

"But I believe that you support me, right!"

A group of soldiers held their weapons and whispered again: "Willing to die for the master!" After all, they were so close to the Yellow Turban Army, and no one would shout out loud.

"Haha... Open the city gate, leave quietly with me, just create chaos, I will try to bring you all back."

After speaking, the kite led 500 people to leave Pingyuan City.

Chapter 55: The Conscience of the Paper Kite

It was already late at night, after all, it was only March, and the 500 people selected by Zhiyuan basically did not suffer from night blindness.

Therefore, it is not difficult to pick out [-] soldiers without night blindness among the [-] or [-] infantry soldiers. Still a bit difficult.

And around the main force of the Yellow Turban Army, there are basically a large number of refugees.Although there are quite a few soldiers maintaining order, distributing food and helping to light some bonfires, there are almost no people patrolling the camp.

Perhaps Guan Hai would not have imagined that thousands of people from Zhiyuan's side would dare to attack a team of tens of thousands.Of course, the Yellow Turban Army didn't have cavalry, but Zhi Yuan had cavalry, which Guan Hai didn't expect Yuan and his men to quietly lurk in a sunken place not far from the Yellow Turban Army.Then wait quietly, after all, it is not convenient for infantry to move first.

We had to wait until Zhi Yuan's cavalry charged first to confuse the enemy, and then the infantry went to ignite the fire to create even greater chaos.As for when the cavalry will act, it depends on the situation.

Zhiyuan used the fire on the city wall to notify the hidden cavalry in the distance, and launched a surprise attack two hours later.But this time is also the cavalry, which is chosen by Tang Qi himself, so all Zhi Yuan can do is wait here.

Under Zhi Yuan's education, Tang Qi also knew how to do it. Originally, he came from the family of the Yuan family, so his skills were pretty good.Zhiyuan had already arranged for his subordinates, as long as the cavalry rushed in, they could rush in.

"It's really cold...you'll be warm after lighting the fire." Zhi Yuan smiled, then lay down and looked at the camp of the Yellow Turban Army.

Most of the people outside were old and weak, and Zhi Yuan couldn't help but feel uncomfortable seeing this.Suddenly Zhiyuan felt a little regretful, she shouldn't have come out to attack.Because in this way, I am afraid that thousands of old and weak will die in her hands.

It's not about the Virgin at all, it's massacre!Zhiyuan knew very well what the consequences would be if those two hundred cavalry rushed in.How could a modern person talk about massacres every day? Although it was a war, these were just refugees after all.

"Peasant uprising..." Zhiyuan suddenly felt her eyes turn red.She suddenly felt that it was very wrong to do so, these people should not die under the iron horse of her own people, Zhi Yuan, as a girl with modern thinking, did not integrate into the ancient war.

But it was too late... At this moment, in the distant camp suddenly, there were countless cries and chaotic sounds, and there were also countless horseshoes faintly.

"Hahaha! It's a success, let's charge!!!" Behind Zhiyuan, team leader Tang Bu led 500 people and rushed in behind Zhiyuan.And while running, use the fire-igniting material to ignite the torch in his hand.

Zhiyuan opened her mouth and shouted, "Wait a minute!"

It's a pity that no one heard the kite's voice in the already chaotic night sky.But Zhiyuan suddenly discovered that she seemed to have opened up a demon.And this demon is devouring all living things.

Zhi Yuan's men rushed into the group of refugees, and right in front of Zhi Yuan, a soldier slashed his weapon at an old man over sixty years old with white beard and hair.The old man resisted with his hands weakly, and then his arms and head were chopped off.

The blood on the old man's neck was sprayed on a little girl next to him, and that little girl welcomed another knife in her frightened eyes.

"What have I done..." Zhi Yuan's legs softened, and she knelt down on the ground.This is a test of my conscience, is this what I want to pursue?

Countless refugees cried and ran towards the camp of the Yellow Turban Army.After all, in the eyes of these refugees, the Yellow Turban Army of the Central Battalion could save them.

It's a pity that at this time, Guan Hai was in the rear camp. He was thrown into chaos by the cavalry's impact, and he couldn't find all his soldiers at all.There are only one or two battalions of soldiers, and about 1000 people are around him.

But because there are too many refugees, the Yellow Turban Army will not attack these refugees, after all, they are their own people.Therefore, Guan Hai's soldiers, who hadn't controlled much in the first place, were once again thrown into confusion by the refugees, which was very embarrassing.

The main force of the Yellow Turban Army is infantry, and it is difficult to catch up with the cavalry who have rushed into the camp. The speed is very passive.

In less than two quarters, Zhi Yuan's [-] or so cavalry came across the camp of the Yellow Turban Army.And directly rushed to the front of Zhiyuan's side, Zhiyuan finally came to her senses at this moment, she didn't know why she was crying with tears all over her face.

Tang Qi came to Zhi Yuan's side, and said to Zhi Yuan: "Master, we have succeeded, the enemy is too weak to be defeated! Should we take this opportunity to cover up and kill them once? It is estimated that thousands of people will die if they trample on each other. gone."

Zhiyuan's expression was a little dull, she shook her head: "Shoot the arrow... withdraw the troops!"

"Master? This is not the time to hesitate. Don't waste this great opportunity!" Tang Qi was a little anxious. To be honest, at this moment, he suddenly realized that he, the master, had become so hesitant.

You are obviously a man in doing things on weekdays, but now you are afraid?Zhiyuan's tears could be seen clearly, Tang Qi thought that Zhiyuan was so frightened that she cried.

"Retreat! Do you understand?" Zhi Yuan's red eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Tang Qi trembled immediately, after all, Zhiyuan's words must be carried out on weekdays, otherwise he would be severely punished.Even some people who go too far and don't obey orders will be killed by paper kites.Zhiyuan, the black sheep, has never wanted it, and the rules set by Zhiyuan are not allowed to be broken by anyone.

The cavalry immediately released the sounding arrows, and the sounding arrows were scattered so many people could hear them.No matter how many people were killed, the infantry began to retreat slowly.

At this moment, Tang Bu not far away suddenly released a bunch of bows and arrows.Among the infantry there were quite a few people who knew how to bow and arrow, so Zhi Yuan naturally asked them to bring bows and arrows.

Just now, Tang Bu discovered that a group of hooligans had gathered together, as if they were protecting someone.These refugees are very powerful in fighting, and they are not afraid of death at all.When many soldiers attacked, they were bitten to death by a few refugees with their teeth.

So Tang Bu decisively let the people with bows and arrows come over. After several consecutive bursts of arrow rain, most of them were all brought down, and the rest of the refugees basically dispersed.

However, among the few people who were shot dead and wounded, there seemed to be a general whom he had encountered during the day.Tang Bu was very excited, if he could kill the enemy's general, it would definitely be his glory.

Just when Tang Bu came in front of the group of refugees who were crying and being shot all over by arrows in pain, his master's voice came from behind him. "Wait a minute... let me see."

"Master, why are you here?" Tang Bu was a little surprised. Speaking of which, he knew Zhiyuan was behind him at the beginning, so Tang Bu charged in front because he didn't want others to hurt Zhiyuan.

Zhiyuan sighed: "You've done a good job...but we can't go on like this. Close the team...."

Chapter 56: Sorry...

A woman with hair like straw, wearing tattered clothes, the only thing to keep out the cold is a large piece of sackcloth wrapped around her body.

She was hit by several arrows, and she couldn't survive.But he stubbornly used his body to block the person under him.

Zhiyuan had seen this person before, and it was the female general who was talking to Guan Hai during the day.It seems to be Zhang Jiao's daughter, but I don't know what it's called Zhiyuan.

This person was also covered in blood, and his arm seemed to be broken. Zhiyuan was probably caused by the collision of Tang Qi and his cavalry, and he is currently unconscious.

So many refugees actually used their bodies to block arrows from the general of the Yellow Turban Thieves.Zhiyuan felt sad again, and she came to the front of this woman little by little.

The dying old lady kept mumbling something.Zhiyuan listened carefully, and the woman continued to say a few more words. "The little man's hair is like a leek... cut back to life... his head is like a chicken... cut and sing again..."

While talking, blood was spraying from his mouth, and he looked at Zhiyuan with a kind of hatred, which made Zhiyuan's heart tremble again.

Zhiyuan's tears came out directly: "I... I'm sorry."

But the answer to Zhiyuan was that the old lady exhausted her last strength and bit Zhiyuan's arm.

Tang Bu and the others next to him were about to come up immediately, but Zhiyuan waved it with her own hand.She knelt down and said to the old lady, "Don't worry, I will save your general."

Immediately... the old man who took away a piece of flesh from Zhiyuan's slender arm fell to the ground.The blood of the kite flowed down the arm, mixing with the blood of the yellow turban soldiers who were refugees.

Gradually, many people gathered around the kite, and none of them understood why the kite behaved like this.

Zhiyuan looked at the people around, and then sighed: "Each of you used to be a farmer..."

"The only difference is that you were bought by the family, or you were bought by me as slaves. But how different are these people from your family?"

"They followed the Yellow Turban Army, but they were just begging for a bite to eat. There are also old people and children in your family... What is their status?"

"After all, there are a small number of people who enter the family. Most of them, even the relatives and friends you know, may be in various places in the Han Dynasty, fighting with officers and soldiers and being massacred."

"I ask you? Are you really going to do it?!"

After Zhiyuan finished speaking, everyone fell silent.Although they were on the battlefield, the mood of the nearby soldiers immediately became depressed.

"That's why I often tell you that we want to build a truly fair home, where no nobles will oppress you, and no government officials will oppress you."

"Being an official is to serve the people, not to let the people serve the officials. This is what I have always done!"

"Slaves, refugees, civilians, etc., the killing among these people is not something to celebrate. After all, they are all for survival, and so are we..."

After Zhiyuan finished speaking, she came to the general of the Yellow Turban Army and dragged her out of the pile of corpses.Then pulled out a few children who looked at Zhiyuan full of hatred. These children were all skinny and had many small wounds on their bodies.

"Take these people, as well as our wounded and dead bodies, and leave as quickly as possible. Tang Qi, you continue to lead the cavalry out, and just be careful not to be surrounded by people every day."

Soon a group of people returned to Pingyuan City. Tang Tian immediately came up to ask Zhiyuan covered in blood, and Zhiyuan waved her hand: "Brother... I want to rest for a while."

Zhi Yuan didn't want to talk, she had a good idea before, but after the real fight with Tai Ping Dao, Zhi Yuan found that she couldn't make a move at all.

And the countless old and weak people in the Taiping Dao also caused Zhiyuan a lot of pain.Zhiyuan returned to the house and locked herself inside.

Tang Tian and Xi Zhi, who rushed over from behind, asked the soldiers, that is, Tang Bu and the others, what happened to Zhiyuan.

The two of them didn't hide anything, they said everything that Zhiyuan said.In fact, the two people also felt that Zhiyuan wanted to do something big, but Zhiyuan didn't tell the two of them, because Zhiyuan hoped that she would change the people around her little by little.

Xi Zhicai frowned: "This girl... is really different from ordinary people. But this kind of benevolence is indeed rare in the world."
