Zhu Xiong had never imagined that he, the dignified Right Middle General, Marquis Duting, the famous general who had defeated the Yellow Turbans, would die at the hands of a nobody.
"My lord!"
"General!"
"General!"
The generals and soldiers behind him were speechless when they saw Zhu Xiong being stabbed to death by Zhou Cheng.
"Thieves deserve to die!"
"Kill him to avenge my lord!"
The guard charged at Zhou Cheng with grief and indignation, but Zhou Cheng was not afraid at all.
Zhou Cheng waved the iron spear in his hand again. He smashed one person with his spear and stabbed another person to death with his spear. Facing the knife and spear that were aimed at his face, he instinctively dodged.
In just a short while, the surrounding Zhu Rong generals and soldiers of the northern army were all killed by Zhou Cheng alone.
Although the price was that Zhou Cheng was stabbed in the shoulder and left a wound on his left leg, after killing Zhu Rong, the government troops would be in chaos and would not be able to chase after them in a short period of time.
Zhou Cheng chopped off Zhu Xi's head and held it in his hand. He then peeled off Zhu Xi's armor.
Zhu He's armor was a set of sleeve armor made of more than 2800 pieces of armor. It was the armor that the emperor had given him when he suppressed the rebel army in Jiaozhou.
Zhou Cheng led a horse and brought Zhu Xiong's bow and arrow, sword, armor, and so on.
At this time, Zhou Cheng's Yellow Turban Army had already killed all the surrounding northern troops, but their casualties were not small either.
There were originally more than a hundred people, but only 43 of them could stand now.
The northern army was the elite of the elite Han army, so they did not speak nonsense.
The Yellow Turbans saw Zhou Cheng holding a human head in his hand. When they took a closer look, it turned out to be Zhu Xi.
The names of Zhu Xi and Huangpu Song were a nightmare for the Yellow Turban Army. Now that they saw Zhu Xi killed, the surrounding Yellow Turban soldiers cried out in excitement.
From Yingchuan to Wancheng, countless Yellow Turban soldiers were slaughtered.
Moreover, Zhu Rong, Huangpu Song, and the others did not want the Yellow Turban prisoners at all.
Many Yellow Turban soldiers were coerced into joining the army. Their families had no choice but to follow the bandits. However, from the moment they became Yellow Turban soldiers, they were doomed to tragedy. In the eyes of the Yellow Turban army's various commanders, they were cannon fodder. In the eyes of the government army, their heads were military achievements.
"Take off the armors of the government soldiers, change into their weapons, and retreat quickly!”
Zhou Cheng didn't want to stay any longer. He just wanted to clean up the battlefield as quickly as possible, then escape from the battlefield and find a place to recuperate.
On the other hand, the armor of the government troops was a good item. Not only did it have stronger defensive capabilities, but it could also impersonate the defeated soldiers of the government troops.
The Yellow Turban Army was quite skilled at cleaning up the battlefield.
They quickly stripped the soldiers of their armor and even their clothes. It couldn't be helped. Most of them were poor people. They joined the Yellow Turban Army because they hoped to have a good life.
He counted the spoils of war. There was a map, 116 sets of two-gear armor, 34 bows, 8 shields, 31 steel knives, 80 spears, jade, horseshoe gold, some copper coins, and some dry rations.
Of course, to Zhou Cheng, the most important combat item was Zhu Xiong's head.
If he could cut off Huangpu Song's head, then all the Yellow Turbans in the world would gather under Zhou Cheng's command.
……
Zhou Cheng brought his remaining subordinates and quickly fled into the forest. They found a secluded place to bandage their wounds.
At the same time, Liu Bei and the others had just been forced back by Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong.
It turned out that not long after Zhao Hong, Sun Zhong, and the others had left the city, they had heard that Han Zhong had been ambushed by Zhu Rong and shot to death by arrows. Liu Bei and the others had brought cavalry to attack.
Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong were now outlaws. They knew that since they could not escape the city, they would fight Liu Bei and the others to the death.
In the end, Liu Bei and the others only brought some cavalry to pursue, and their numbers were far inferior to Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong.
Thus, Liu Bei and the others could only retreat.
Meanwhile, Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong led their men back to Wan City, once again repelling the government troops and regaining control of Wan City.
"General Liu, something bad has happened."
Just as Liu Bei was about to gather his troops, a horse suddenly galloped over. Before it could get close, it shouted loudly.
"Why are you so panicked?" Zhang Fei angrily rebuked.”
The knight jumped down from his horse and hurriedly said,""General Youzhong was ambushed by bandits and died in battle.”
"What did you say? Ming Gong is dead!" Hearing this, Liu Bei's body shook and he almost fell off his horse.
"Big brother!"
"Big brother!"
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu hurriedly supported Liu Bei.
Liu Bei had started his crusade against Huang Jin from Zhuo County. Although he had won many battles, the only ones who treated him well were Lu Zhi and Zhu Xi.
Now, Lu Zhi had been escorted back to Luoyang for questioning, and Zhu Xi had been killed.
Moreover, if the person who replaced Zhu Rong after he was killed was also Dong Zhuo, then Liu Bei's career would be hopeless.
Of course, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, and the others all thought that Liu Bei valued friendship and that he found it hard to accept the bad news after hearing that Zhu Xiong was dead.
However, Zhu Xiong was already dead, and there was no commander in the army now. How should they deal with the widowed soldiers? This was another problem.
"Forget it, let's go back to the village first."
Liu Bei let out a long sigh. Just as he was about to return to the village, he happened to encounter a group of people.
The person in the lead had a broad forehead and a broad face. He had the body of a tiger and the waist of a bear. He looked majestic. At the same time, he had the flag of 'Sun' behind him. It was Sun Jian.
