It was impossible to use the token to open the city gate in such a critical period. At that time, the guards would report it to Jingwei and lose the whole game. However, it was still possible to bring a few people over the wall into the city. Gong Du, Huang Shao, He Man, and He Yi had been waiting for a long time.
"I am an envoy under General Zhu. I have something important to call for a few people under the city. "Don't delay the time and ruin the big thing," Sun En said with a serious face. With the token and seal, the guards had no choice but to believe him. One by one, he pulled the four people in Han Army uniforms up.
However, the four burly men were really suspicious. The leader used his eyes to signal the ten people to follow and monitor in case of any accidents. However, after they gradually walked away, Sun En and the other five attacked at the same time and instantly killed the ten elite soldiers.
The magnificent morning sun rose slowly, and the multicolored clouds floated in the sky like strands of golden threads. As the east turned white, the difficult night passed. Jing Wei braced himself and went to welcome Zhu Rong.
Zhu Xiong stopped his troops outside the moat and only brought a few dozen people into the city. Of course, Lin Chu followed. The weather was clear and the scenery was beautiful, but there was killing intent everywhere. As an old general, Zhu Rong was naturally shrewd, and Jing Wei couldn't tell. However, the cause and effect were already clear. It was difficult not to see this killing intent.
When they arrived at the government office, Zhu Xi didn't waste any time. He came up and took out the secret letter with the dignity of a veteran."Come and tell me what's going on! You have killed innocent people. Even if you have made contributions to the court, you will not escape death!”Without waiting for Jing Wei to reply, Zhu Rong shouted,""Take him down!" Only surprise could disrupt a lie, and even if one had the ability to react in time, it would be difficult to lie at this time.
Of course, this was just a temporary situation. Jing Wei already knew about it yesterday. However, his mental endurance was not good. He only came back to his senses when he was pressed to the ground. He hurriedly said,"Lord Zhu has misunderstood! The people at the horse farm were not good people. They often colluded with thieves to rob their homes. I'm just trying to trick them into killing each other.”
"Humph! What proof do you have?”Zhu Rong naturally wouldn't let Jing Wei off just because of a baseless statement. At the very least, he would have to put Jing Wei in jail before making any plans. Pang De was silent. Regardless of whether Jing Wei was telling the truth, he didn't know about it. This undoubtedly made Pang De suspicious, and even if Zhu Xiong wanted to attack, he had to endure it.
Just as Jing Wei was about to be taken down, Lin Chu saw his subordinate signaling that the preparations were complete. "General, last night I sent people to investigate the horse farm. It's indeed not a good place, just as Governor Liu said." The subordinate has brought the witness to the door for the general to take a look.”It was obvious that Zhu Xiong trusted Lin Chu very much. After hearing Lin Chu's words, he gestured for the person to come in.
A soldier brought a woman in her forties into the hall. Lin Chu had hired this woman last night. The woman sat down and wailed,""Child, husband, mother, father, you all died so tragically…It's all those bastards from the horse farm. They're inhumane. They killed my entire family for some money.”She cried so hard that her bones turned cold.
The woman sobbed for a while before running to Jing Wei and saying," Thanks to the new prefect, my family can rest in peace in heaven…" Lin Lin said many more words of praise for Jing Wei. This was indeed enough to make Zhu Rong waver, but at this moment, a whistling arrow sounded outside the door.
Gong Du, Huang Shao, He Man, and He Yi, who were dressed in their military uniforms, killed a few of Zhu Rong's guards. The rest of the people mistakenly thought that Jing Wei was going to rebel and hurriedly raised their whistling arrows. Outside the city, the Zhuhe troops were already ready to set off. They charged into the city in an orderly manner after firing a whistling arrow, and the defenders who were unaware of the situation were forced to defend.
The reason why Zhu Rong dared to bring only a few dozen people was because he was overly reliant on his status. Liu Hanchu had just arrived, and there would definitely not be many people who would be willing to listen to him and disobey the court. When he saw that there were only four people outside the room, he was very dissatisfied. He did not know which soldier had such poor eyesight. This whistling arrow would probably kill thousands of people for no reason.
Zhu Rong had been on the battlefield for many years and did not panic at all. He pulled out his sword and commanded,"Team one, take down the four rebels outside the house." As for the rest, take down Liu Han and the other thieves. The main culprit is Liu Han. If you surrender early, you can avoid the death penalty.”Only Pang De and the three people from Western Liang followed Jing Wei. As the other three looked at each other, Pang De was the first to surrender.
Pang De and the other three did not hesitate to surrender. At this moment, Jing Wei's face was filled with astonishment. His lack of experience was especially obvious at this time. The chaos saw that Lin Chu was still expressionless, which made people shudder.
Of course, Jing Wei still had to struggle and shout,"I really don't know who these people are! I'm not thinking of rebelling!" In his panic, he actually forgot to use classical Chinese, but it was futile.
To everyone's surprise, the four people outside the room were very skilled. When Zhu Rong turned his attention to Jing Wei, Huang Shao had already arrived in front of Zhu Rong. Zhu Rong was unable to retaliate for a moment, and could only glare at him with the courage of a veteran who was not afraid of death. Just as the vertical slash came, Lin Chu suddenly stood in front of Zhu Xiong.
Seeing that Lin Chu had used his body to block the blade for him, Zhu Rong was naturally grateful. However, he could not immediately check on Lin Chu's injuries. Huang Shao saw that he could not kill Zhu Rong and continued to attack. Zhu Rong was born in the army, after all. He retreated slightly and blocked the blade with his sword. Without hesitation, he immediately swung his fist and hit Huang Shao in the face.
At this moment, Gong Du, He Man, and He Yi had successfully split into three blind spots. They were no longer something that Zhu Xiong could defend against. At this moment, Pang De easily pushed aside the stunned soldiers, picked up the cut-off broadsword, and waved it like a storm. The cut-off broadsword was shorter than ordinary broadswords, but the back of the broadsword was thicker.
Such a short broadsword should not have been able to cover the entire hall, but as Pang De walked, the entire hall became narrow. Moreover, in such a chaotic situation, such a flurry of attacks did not hurt a single person on his side. Not only that, Pang De had already discovered He Man, who was the weakest in martial arts, at this moment. He only used the back of his sword to strike his waist.
Outside the city, Zhu Xiong's troops and the unknown widowed soldiers were fighting. Zhu Wei's troops were already elite, and the widowed troops hurriedly accepted the battle. The Vermilion Bird Tribe naturally had the absolute advantage. This was naturally not what Wu Yong wanted to see. Wu Yong ordered his men to seize the armory. After retrieving the weapons, the Yellow Turban Army attacked the rear army of Zhu Rong's troops, putting a lot of pressure on Zhu Rong's troops.
However, the veterans led by the veterans were naturally not cowardly and continued to defend effectively. When the three sides fell into Jiaozuo, a man dressed as a Taoist priest appeared on the city gate and shouted,"I am General Heaven Duke. I have traveled all over the world and have revived the dead. The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should be established. The year is in Jiazi, and the world is in good luck! I have already cast a spell on all the soldiers. If you march forward bravely, you can come back to life!”According to Wu Yong's plan, Sun En should be holding Zhu Rong's head and shouting. Perhaps the outcome had been decided, but it did not seem to be as smooth as he had imagined.
The Yellow Turban looked at the familiar face of a virtuous teacher. Zhang Jiao, who should have died, was standing there alive. His morale could not help but rise. The Zhufeng Tribe and the Oligombo Tribe had seen Zhang Jiao talking to others, and their faces were all pale. Many soldiers even thought of running away and didn't want to fight anymore.
However, Wu Yong, who was far away, could not help but frown when he saw Sun En's empty hands. In this situation, it would not be long before Zhu Rong arrived to stabilize the morale of the army. Moreover, if Sun En was killed on the spot, he would have no chance of winning. While he was thinking, a group of people charged out from both sides. Wu Yong couldn't help but say in shock,"Zhu Rong actually has such a capable subordinate?”
Sun Enyi, who was at the city gate, saw that there were only a thousand people coming from both sides. Sun En hurriedly took off his Taoist robe and changed into the Wancheng military uniform. He took the seal of the Wancheng Mayor and ran in the direction of Jingzhi and Shi Wanbao.
Wu Yong calmed down and ordered,""Burn the drawbridge! Everyone, surround and annihilate the troops on both sides!" Just as he gave the order, the sound of horse hooves came again. Wu Yong couldn't help but click his tongue and say,"Humph! What a good way to capture the leader first."
Liu Pi immediately raised his saber and shouted,"Bah! Dog army, now that General Heaven Duke has come back from the dead, do you think you can do anything to me?”With that, the government troops began to fight. Liu Pi was indeed worthy of being called the bandit leader. He alone killed more than thirty elite government troops. Although the Yellow Turban soldiers had not undergone professional training and did not come back to their senses for a moment, they found that the enemy was outnumbered and their leader was so brave. They immediately picked up the weapons in their hands and attacked the government troops in a disorderly manner.
Seeing this, Wu Yong dismounted and squeezed into the crowd. Although Liu Pi had some kung fu, he was still outnumbered by the government troops and was soon surrounded and hacked to death. A nimble soldier beheaded Liu Pi and shouted,""The thief leader is dead. Surrender quickly to avoid the death penalty!”
Looking at Liu Pi's head, the Yellow Turban soldiers couldn't help but be shocked. Just as they were about to surrender, Wu Yong shouted from the crowd,""Soldiers, don't disturb me. Today, General Gong has already come back from the dead. It is not difficult to revive General Liu. The enemy is few and the reinforcements are cut off. We should fight bravely. General Heaven Duke would definitely use his divine power to help.”When the government troops heard this, their veins bulged as they charged towards the direction of the person who shouted. Unexpectedly, he was already surrounded. After thinking for a while, he actually surrendered.
At this time, Zhu Xiong had also rushed to the city gate. A few shouts stabilized the morale of both sides. The suspension bridge had also been burned, so he had no choice but to shoot more Yellow Turban thieves. Due to the unclear situation, Jing Wei had also been locked in prison. He would be judged after the matter was over.
Although the Yellow Turbans had lost their commander and many generals and suffered heavy losses, they were not destroyed because of Wu Yong's prompt decision. The troops that Lin Chu could mobilize were too limited, and after putting up a desperate resistance, they were all wiped out. Seeing that the situation had been set, Wu Yong ordered half of his men to keep a close eye on the movements of the government troops in the city, while the other half moved the provisions of Zhu Rong's troops to the deep mountains and forests. On the other side of the suspension bridge, many Yellow Turban soldiers still failed to return because Wu Yong had burned down the suspension bridge. Zhu Xiong ordered them to be captured alive and then killed one by one in front of the Yellow Turban soldiers to deal a blow to their morale.
The Yellow Turban soldiers could not help but feel cold when they recalled their compatriots who were still burned alive on the suspension bridge and drowned in the moat.
