Zhang Chao stood on the city wall of Changshe and looked at the hundreds of Yellow Turbans rushing over. He almost wanted to laugh. In fact, Zhang Chao did the same. Soldiers, look at the Yellow Turban bandits below. They don't know the art of war. Don't you know that Sun Tzu's military book says,'The art of war is to surround the enemy ten times, attack the enemy five times, fight the enemy twice, divide the enemy, escape when the enemy is few, and avoid when the enemy is weak. Since ancient times, those who attacked the city were several times stronger than those who defended the city. However, today, the Yellow Turban bandits had already attacked the city with hundreds of people? What a joke! Hahaha!"
Zhang Chao's arrogant voice resounded through the city gate tower (Zhang Chao thought to himself: It was one thing for hundreds of bandits to attack the city, but there were actually six bandit generals leading them. As long as they were all killed, the morale of the Yellow Turban bandits would definitely be lowered, and perhaps they would have a chance to wait for reinforcements to arrive. When the thousand Han soldiers on the city heard Zhang Chao's words, their morale, which had been low due to the fear of the tens of thousands of Yellow Turban cavalry outside the city, rose a little. After all, the cavalry could not attack the city. As long as they killed these hundreds of Yellow Turban bandits, they might be able to survive. Some Han soldiers even thought so.
However, the Changshe Han Army had clearly underestimated the elite level of the Yellow Turban Army below the city. There were even six highly skilled Yellow Turban generals leading the army to attack the city.
"Ladder to the wall!"
Du Yuan shouted loudly, and the five hundred Yellow Turban soldiers divided into another hundred or so people to lift the ladder and charge down the city wall with shields in their hands.
How could Zhang Chao let the Yellow Turban Army get what they wanted? Release the arrows!"
The three hundred archers on the wall immediately released their bowstrings, and arrows flew down. The sound of clanging rang out. More than a hundred Yellow Turban soldiers carrying ladders raised their shields and cooperated neatly. The shields on top of each other blocked almost all the arrows in an instant, and they were actually unharmed!
"Impossible!"
On the city wall, Zhang Chao shouted in shock and anger. He did not expect that after a rain of arrows, half of them were actually alive!
At this time, the Yellow Turbans had already reached the city. The foot of the ladder poked the ground and pushed the ladder up bit by bit. Zhang Chao pulled out his sword and waved it down. Falling rocks and rolling wood! Smash it hard!"
The 400 sword-shield soldiers immediately picked up the falling rocks and rolling logs that had been placed on the city wall in advance and smashed them at the Yellow Turban soldiers below the city wall. When Du Yuan, who was not far away, saw this, he immediately rushed out first.
"Brothers! Go up the stairs and enter the city!"
When Zhang Chao saw the Yellow Turban general with the iron mask and the broken saber running over, he drew his bow and shot an arrow at Du Yuan.
Right at this moment! A black shadow ran past Du Yuan. Du Yuan looked closely and saw that it was Zhou Cang!
Zhou Cang moved left and right like a black whirlwind on the battlefield. Zhou Cang reached the city wall in a moment. He stepped on the ladder and climbed up without caring that it was not close to the city wall.
Du Yuan, Zhang Leigong, and the others behind him saw Zhou Cang's bravery and could not help but speed up. On the city wall, Zhang Chao laughed coldly, secretly thinking that the thief was courting death.
"Archers, shoot down that Charcoal Head!”
The Han archer was about to draw his bow when the sky suddenly darkened! The Han archer looked up!
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Miserable screams instantly rang out from all over the city wall. Zhang Chao hurriedly knocked away the stray arrows and looked outside the city. This made Zhang Chao gnash his teeth. It was a white horse leading 3,000 cavalry from the Yellow Turban cavalry who had not moved outside the city. They rushed around the city and flew to cover the infantry below the city.
"Pa!" It turned out that the Yellow Turban ladder was leaning against the city wall!
Several Han soldiers at the side hurriedly raised their spears and stabbed forward. Unexpectedly, Zhou Cang was extremely agile. He flipped his body in the air and brandished his long saber, cutting off the spears. He then swung his saber backward and slashed down, killing the Han soldiers who were holding spears. Zhou Cang stepped onto the city tower and brandished his long saber to block the scaling ladder behind him.
Seeing Zhou Cang climb up the city wall, Zhang Chao panicked. The Han army rushed forward, wanting to push Zhou Cang down. However, Zhou Cang's valiant long saber flew up and down, chopping, slashing, picking, and lifting. He killed seven or eight Han soldiers in a row, causing the rest of the Han army to hesitate and not dare to advance.
At this time, the five hundred Yellow Turban soldiers had already climbed up the wall. The first to climb up were Du Yuan and Zhang Leigong. Du Yuan slashed through iron with his Ghost Face Blade and moved nimbly like a ghost among the Han army, charging toward the Han archers. Zhang Leigong had just climbed up the wall when he opened his mouth and roared, shocking the Han army. Then he charged into the Han army with his iron hammer.
Liao Hua, Bian Xi, and Pei Yuan Shao arrived one after another. Liao Hua stabbed with his long spear, Bian Xi smashed with his chain hammer, and Pei Yuan Shao hacked with his podao. Although the three of them were inexperienced in martial arts, they were not something that ordinary Han soldiers could withstand! The Yellow Turban soldiers climbed up the city wall one after another, but the Han army was forced to retreat.
"How could this be!"
Zhang Chao said in disbelief. He couldn't believe the scene in front of him. It had only been a short while since that black charcoal head had rushed to the city wall, but the Han army had already begun to collapse!
Unfortunately, Zhang Chao was already very obvious on the field. He had only taken two steps when he was blocked by Bian Xi. Bian Xi shouted," Hey, Han General! Come to your Grandpa Bian Xi!"”
After saying that, he rushed forward with the chain hammer. Bian Xi threw the chain hammer and the hammer head directly hit Zhang Chao's face. Zhang Chao was not afraid. He held his sword and slashed with all his might, chopping the hammer back. However, Zhang Chao's hands were numb from the shock. He sighed at the thief's great strength (This was just Zhang Chao's illusion. In reality, Zhang Chao's martial strength was too weak. Laugh in parenthesis).
Bian Xi wasn't surprised that Zhang Chao had blocked his hammer. He moved his hands and pulled the iron chain in his hands. The hammer was instantly retracted. Bian Xi wrapped the chain around his body and threw it out again. This time, it wasn't aimed at Zhang Chao's face, but at his chest. It was really slow, but it was actually fast. Zhang Chao only felt that after he had finally managed to break the hammer, the thief general had struck again. Zhang Chao gathered his strength and raised his sword to slash again!
"Clang!"
Although the chain hammer was swung back and forth, the sword in his hand was also shaken out of his hand. Zhang Chao panted heavily and slowly raised his trembling hands. At this moment, Bian Xi came forward and kicked Zhang Chao over, then grabbed Zhang Chao with one hand.
"By the time the general is captured by me, Bian Xi! Hurry up and surrender!"
The Han army, which had been continuously retreating, was even more defeated when they saw this.
after a while
Bian Xi casually threw Zhang Chao in front of Zheng Gong. All the Han soldiers in the city had been captured. There were still more than 600 people left. This guy was the commander of the Han army in the city. He had been captured by Bian Xi and presented to the commander.”
Bian Xi said proudly to Zheng Gong. When Zheng Gong saw this, he didn't say anything. He just patted the cow and patted Bian Xi's head with a smile (Liao Hua, Bian Xi, and Pei Yuan Shao were all fifteen years old in the year of the Yellow Turban Uprising). Zheng Gong's action made Bian Xi straighten his back even more. He glanced at Liao Hua and Pei Yuan Shao beside him.
Zhang Chao, who was thrown to the ground, felt a sharp pain all over his body. He pushed his head and hands against the ground and slowly straightened his back. He took a deep breath and looked up at Zheng Gong. Zheng Gong was also attracted by Zhang Chao's actions.
Zheng Gong turned his head and said," Han General, Yingchuan Yellow Turbans, where are the Earth Duke General and the Human Duke General? Tell me the truth, and I'll spare your life.”
However, Zhang Chao snorted coldly." Yellow Turban bandits, you can't even withstand a single blow. Your Earth Duke General and Human Duke General have long been defeated by East Zhonglang General Huangfu Song and West Zhonglang General Zhu Wei with fire. Now, they're being hunted down by the imperial court's troops like stray dogs!" Hahaha!"
Zhang Chao's words angered Zhang Leigong. Do you want to die?"
The sound was like a thunderclap that exploded in everyone's ears. Zhang Chao felt a sweetness in his throat, but he forced it down. He turned to look at Zhang Leigong and said firmly,
"Humph! I'm Sima Zhang Chao, a subordinate of General Zhu Wei of the Western Han Dynasty! Why would I be afraid of death?"
At this moment, Zhang Baiqi suddenly rode his horse over." Commander, the Han soldiers have surrendered. General Di Gong and General Ren Gong should be in Qu Yang now!"”
"Here!"
At this moment, Zhang Leigong suddenly said,"Marshal, should we kill this Han general?"”
Zheng Gong waved his hand." This Han General is a man. Let him live this time."”
After saying that, Zheng Gong ignored Zhang Chao. A moment later, he led the 20,000 Yellow Turban cavalry straight to Guangzong.
"Lord Thunder, we didn't come to the south to kill the Han army. Moreover, the great teacher has already said,'The sky is not dead yet, and the yellow sky cannot stand'. We only need to meet up with General Earth Duke and General Ren Gong before we go to Qingzhou to hide.”
Zheng Gong answered Zhang Leigong in such a way.(Of course, Zheng Gong didn't think of this himself. Zhang Ning told him on the way.)
Quyang Han Army Camp
"What?! The Jizhou Yellow Turban disappeared? Liu Yizhen led the army south and arrived tomorrow!”
Zhu Xi was at a loss. Huangfu Song had sent Cao Cao to deliver the order, but Zhu Xi was quick-witted. A thought flashed through his mind. Perhaps this was an opportunity. He turned to Liu Bei and said,
"Xuande! Bring Yan Zheng up."
Then he turned to Cao Cao and said,
