In the early summer of 186 AD, the world was unkind and used all living things as dogs. The emperor was unkind and used the people as dogs. QUaNBen! Years of famine had left the people with no food to eat, and even the tree bark and grass roots were almost eaten up. However, the imperial court did not care about the lives of the people and did not order the prefectures to open their granaries to release grain. Instead, they increased all kinds of taxes year by year, making the lives of the people even worse. Officials forced the people to rebel, and the people had no choice but to rebel.
The Yellow Turban Uprising started by Zhang Jiao and his brothers had caused the people to blindly join them. In just two short years, it had developed rapidly, and the territory of the Great Han Dynasty was like an uncontrollable locust plague.
In order to further expand the fruits of the Yellow Turban uprising and contain the military forces of the provinces that did not break out in the uprising. Zhang Jiao ordered the local leaders to attack the areas where there was no uprising. Zhang Mancheng was the leader of the Central Plains near Wan City and had 80,000 rebel soldiers under him.
After receiving Zhang Jiao's order, he led the rebel army to attack Bingzhou. After the defeat in Jinyang, he was tempted by Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, and formed an alliance with the government army to attack Taiyuan City. The 40,000 elite soldiers of the Ding Yuan Army disguised themselves as the uprising army, a total of 120,000 charging towards Taiyuan.
On the march of the Yellow Turban uprising army, Zhang Mancheng was abnormally excited as he watched the endless uprising army charge toward Taiyuan like locusts. Zhang Mancheng looked into the distance and saw the outline of the huge city wall of Thai Nguyen City. He said excitedly to the generals beside him,"Taiyuan is right in front of us. What a magnificent city! There are countless wealth and food in Taiyuan. Brothers, charge.”
Zhao Hong looked at the huge city in the distance and sneered in his heart."Lu Bu is not someone we can defeat. There will definitely be a huge battle later. It would be best if Zhang Mancheng is killed by Lu Bu. Then, I will be the commander of this Revolutionary Army. When I become the canal commander, I won't attack Taiyuan and run to other weak cities. Those cities were almost within reach, and those mayors were even more cowardly than rats. If he was lucky, he could even get a few of the mayors 'concubines. Hehe, he hadn't touched a woman for a long time.”
He ordered a few trusted generals in his camp to follow his orders. Food was undoubtedly the greatest temptation for the Yellow Turban rebels. They quickened their pace and rushed toward Taiyuan City.
There were many soldiers gathered at the gate of Thai Nguyen City. They were well-equipped and looked at the general who was giving a speech with excitement and admiration on their faces. Because he was the irreplaceable hero in their hearts, the incarnation of the God of War, Flying General Lu Bu. I looked at the soldiers that I had personally nurtured. They were so elite that I was proud of them. Every soldier had gone through hellish training and was armed to the teeth.
Gao Shun's Breaking Ranks Battalion was fully clad in silver scale armor. They held a Zhanmadao in their right hand and a huge shield in their left hand. These 1,000 soldiers had boundless fighting power. Next were the 1,500 men of the Fierce Wind Cavalry, the personal guards that I had personally trained, Zhang Liao's 1,000 men of the Wolf Cavalry, Zhao Yun's 1,000 men of the Brave Tiger Cavalry, and Zhang He's 3,000 men of the Great Halberd Battalion. They are the most elite soldiers of our army. They will be the bravest soldiers on the battlefield. They are the army most loyal to me.
I looked at them and said,"The people of the world are unfortunate. The Divine Great Land is in the midst of war." Countless people are wandering at the gates of hell. They are all our brothers and sisters. We have to save them. The Yellow Turban uprising army was already outside Taiyuan. They were a group of bandits who only knew how to rob. If they were allowed to continue like this, more people would die. Behind you are 500,000 brothers and sisters of Taiyuan. Soldiers were trained for thousands of days to be used for a moment, and today was the moment to use troops. For the peace of the world, we must defeat the Yellow Turbans. Although they have many more people than us, I believe that you are the strongest soldiers and fearless heroes. Let the enemy's blood prove your strength and go out of the city to meet the enemy.”
Gao Shun and the other generals raised the weapons in their hands and shouted excitedly,"Our army will definitely win. Our lord is invincible!"
The soldiers of the entire army began to crazily shout along with Gao Shun and the other generals,""Our army will definitely win. Our lord is invincible!" After that, I ordered my men to serve everyone a cup of wine. Then, I opened the thick and sturdy city gate and dashed out.
I organized the army outside the city wall and waited for the Yellow Turban to arrive. I arranged the soldiers of the Breaking Ranks Camp and the Great Halberd Camp to be at the front, followed by the cavalry.
Gao Shun watched the gradually clear figures of the Yellow Turban rebel army in front of him and ordered calmly,""Defense line." Then, the soldiers of the Breaking Ranks Camp began to squat down and insert their shields into the ground. Under the sunlight, their Zhanmadao looked especially dazzling.
Zhang Mancheng's Yellow Turban Army finally arrived at Taiyuan City under the acceleration. However, they were all in an uproar because they were greeted by an elite army. The Yellow Turban rebel army could feel the coldness of the other party's weapon and gaze, and they could still feel the cold killing intent under the scorching sun. After Zhang Mancheng calmed down the soldiers, he looked at the Taiyuan army.
"This time, we really kicked an iron plate. It looks like we've been played by Ding Yuan." Didn't they say that Lu Bu's army had less than ten thousand men? How could there be so many of them? Moreover, they were so elite that they were much stronger than our army.”
Zhao Hong looked at the Taiyuan Army and revealed a surprised expression. However, he was overjoyed in his heart,'I knew Taiyuan was strong, but I didn't expect you to be so bold. You dared to go out of the city to fight against more than 100,000 troops. Lu Bu was indeed extraordinary. It would be best if he could kill Zhang Mancheng. I don't want to die here.”
Ding Yuanjun, who was at the back, also stopped. Wei Xu said,""Let's wait for them to start fighting, then we can see how strong Lu Bu is. I've long heard of how powerful Lu Bu is, and today I can finally witness it.”
"Hmph, General Wei, why do you have to lower your own morale by praising others?" Hou Cheng said disdainfully. I feel that Lu Bu might be someone who wants to gain fame. I'll show you what a fierce general is like later.”
Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Hao Meng quickly said,""We should follow the lord's plan and wait for both of them to be injured before making our move. Taiyuan will definitely be our lord's reward.”
I looked at the continuous stream of Yellow Turbans opposite me and was a little worried about their momentum. He turned around and saw that the soldiers were coldly staring ahead, not showing any fear. Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, and the others all had burning gazes in their eyes. A strong fighting spirit radiated from their bodies. Zhang Liao and I arrived at Gao Shun's camp. Gao Shun quickly said,"My lord, I didn't expect the enemy to be so many. I'm afraid there are more than 100,000 people.”
I was slightly surprised, but so what if there were 100,000 people? I arrogantly said,"I only see a hundred thousand weeds in my eyes. We can definitely break them."”
Gao Shun and the others looked at me with admiration and said," My lord is brave. Our army will win."
Zhang Mancheng led his generals forward to observe. When they saw such a majestic soldier, they couldn't help but gasp. In front of them was a man holding a huge halberd and riding a majestic white horse. He looked domineering and extraordinary. The four generals lined up beside him, each of them looking unsightly, and they were extremely surprised.
Han Zhong looked at the soldiers beside him who were a little flustered and quickly rode out. Han Zhong, who was beside Zhang Mancheng, asked,""Big brother, I'll go kill their prestige. I've long wanted to see the martial arts of Lu Bu, the god he's called.”
Zhang Mancheng was worried that the morale of the army was unstable. If he could kill the generals in front of the battle, he could raise their morale. Han Zhong's martial arts skills were quite good. He had always been the winner of the battle. He happily agreed,"General Han, you must be careful.”
After Han Zhong responded, he ran to the front of our army and called out to Nang,"I am Yellow Turban General Han Zhong. Who dares to fight me to the death?”In the Han Dynasty, there was a habit of dueling between the generals of both sides before the battle began.
When I heard that someone actually dared to come alone, I looked at the general in front of the formation who had the back of a tiger and the waist of a wolf. He held a big axe and had the aura of a general. Just as he was about to finish him off, Zhao Yun and Zhang He suddenly asked,""My lord, why would you use an ox-knife to kill a chicken? I'm willing to kill such trash.”
After Zhao Yun and Zhang He joined me, they didn't have the chance to show off their strength.
I looked at my two beloved generals in a difficult position. Actually, either of them could be easily dealt with. However, he didn't know who to give this opportunity to. He suddenly thought of a good idea, so he said,"Rock, paper, scissors. How about the one who wins?”
After I told Zhao Yun and Zhang He the method, both of them felt that it was very fair. In the end, Zhao Yun's scissors broke Zhang He's cloth. When our super handsome Zhao Yun won, Zhao Yun smiled and rode out. After waiting for a long time, Han Zhong finally saw a general running to his side. After carefully observing the general, he laughed and said,""Why is there a young man here? Could it be that Lu Bu doesn't have any subordinates to use? Haha ~"
"Zhao Zilong from Changshan is here. I'll make you regret what you just said." Zhao Yun raised her eyebrows and said angrily.”After saying that, he raised his rotten silver spear and stabbed it at Han Zhong's neck.
Zhao Yun's gun suddenly appeared without a sound. Han Zhong felt a sharp pain on his neck. He instinctively pressed his hand against the blood that was spurting out of his neck. His vision turned black and he fell off the horse. With a face full of disbelief, he fell to the ground with a bang. I looked at Zhao Yun in shock and praised,"Zilong's spear is really fast. We don't have any chance to see it!”
Gao Shun and the others agreed,"Brother Zilong is truly a fierce general!"”
The soldiers cheered,"General Zhao is mighty!"
Zhang Mancheng looked at the handsome young general in front of him in disbelief. Lu Bu actually had such a fierce warrior under him. The Yellow Turban soldiers all cried out in surprise." How did General Han die so quickly? It can't be! He's very powerful!" That general is too scary. We seem to have come to the wrong place this time!”
After Zhao Yun won, she rode back to the camp and said,""My lord, I'm lucky that I didn't fail you!"
"Zilong is really a brave general," I praised."I plan to give you a raise."”
"Thank you, my lord, hehe!" Zhao Yun said excitedly. Can you tell me how much you can add?”
I was speechless after hearing that. Then, another general appeared beside Zhang Mancheng and said,"I'm willing to avenge my good friend."
This person was Han Zhong's good friend, Sun Xia. He wielded a broadsword and was much stronger than Han Zhong in martial arts. Zhang Mancheng quickly agreed when he saw Sun Xia fight,""General Sun, you must win. Otherwise, the morale of our army will never recover!”
Sun Xia angrily rode his horse forward and shouted,""I am the Yellow Turban Great General Sun Xia. Who dares to fight me to the death?”
