Chapter 66
Chapter 67 Die out
Zhang Yu arranged everything and gave Zhang Zhao 3,000 people, enough to deal with the unexpected situation in the county.
And Zhang Yu took Ling Cao and Xi Zhicai, and led five thousand soldiers to send troops to kill the Yellow Turban.
These five thousand soldiers are already full at this time, including a thousand archers.
This is Zhang Yu’s exchange of points, and they have all their weapons and equipment, weapons and armor.
This is a fully armed and well-trained army.
“It would be great if there were war horses.” Looking at the army on the way, Zhang Yu was a little bit emotional. There were only more than a hundred war horses in their army. Except for a few generals, all the rest were given to scouts.
There is a shortage of horses in the south, and Zhang Yu can’t get many horses temporarily.
Along the way, Zhang Yu could see the refugees running in a hurry, and the bones that were not cold on the road.
No one knows how many tragedies this disaster has caused.
Zhang Yu and the others are heading northwest, intending to kill the Yingchuan area.
Yichuan and Runan’s yellow turbans were so huge that they almost hit Luoyang at one point.
At this time, the officers and soldiers had not reacted. When the Yellow Turban was at its peak, even the emperor had not issued an order to suppress bandits from all over the world.
Zhang Yu went all the way to the northwest, killing many scattered yellow turbans along the way, allowing him to get a lot of points.
“Zhi Cai, you are safe to wait, spread the news along the road, saying that you can survive when you reach Kuaiji County, and send someone to notify Zhang Zhao so that he can arrange these refugees with all his strength.”
Refugees are a lot of wealth. Perhaps no one realizes it now, but they will find them to be cumbersome. However, in the age of lords, migrants are a very important strategic resource.
Since Zhang Yu knew that, of course he had to grab these strategic resources before everyone had reacted.
“Lord, although our Kuaiji county is very sparsely populated, the funds and food in the county are limited, and it is impossible to arrange too many refugees.” Xi Zhi said after hearing it.
Of course Zhang Yu knew that relying on the finances of Kuaiji County alone would drag them down in no time.
“Don’t worry, it won’t take long for me to solve the problem of money and food, and the money and food in the county can last for a while.”
Zhang Yu’s back hand is of course the system, in which basic resources such as money and grain can be exchanged indefinitely, as long as the points are sufficient.
Zhang Yu exchanged the materials, and no one thought it was strange, maybe it was the function of the system, everyone thought it was natural.
“Yes, Lord.” Xizhi didn’t hesitate, so he immediately arranged.
After a few days of walking, Zhang Yu wiped out a few strands of Yellow Turban, and his points had reached 15,000.
“Lord, we can reach Lujiang City after dark. Do you want to go to the city for a break?” Ling Cao asked.
“Okay, I have been on the road for more than ten days, and everyone is tired. It’s okay to take a break,” Zhang Yu said.
Actually, the soldiers are not very tired, they have not experienced much battle along the way, and the marching speed is not fast.
The reason for the unhappiness is that Zhang Yu was so slow on purpose.
Because at this time Emperor Liu Hong has not made an order to suppress the bandits, Zhang Yu has already sent troops.
This cannot be explained legally at all. If someone makes trouble by this, Zhang Yu must bribe Zhang Rang and others.
According to Zhang Yu’s estimation, this imperial decree will not be issued for several days.
But Zhang Yu didn’t care about that much. He earned points for smashing the Yellow Turban. If he didn’t grab the head at this time, when would he grab it?
Zhang Yu and the others moved towards Lujiang City.
Lujiang City is not actually called Lujiang City, but Anhui City, the capital of Lujiang County.
“Report, lord, a large number of yellow turbans are found in front of him, attacking Wancheng.” The soldier in front said.
Originally Zhang Yu and the others were going to the city of Anhui to rest, but they didn’t expect that the city of Anhui was already surrounded by the Yellow Turban.
“Quickly find out the situation.” Without more specific information, Zhang Yu planned to stay still.
Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot, waiting for more information to come from ahead.
Soon wave after wave of scouts will gather more detailed information.
“Master, there are currently more than 20,000 Yellow Turbans attacking Anhui city day and night. It has been more than ten days. According to current estimates, it will not last long.” Xi Zhicai said.
Zhang Yu looked into the distance, and then said after a long time: “Stop the soldier and watch the change.”
If Zhang Yu sent troops to attack from behind, this yellow turban could be wiped out soon, at least it could kill them, and relieve the danger of the siege.
Ran Zhang Yu, after struggling, chose to die.
Xi Zhicai and Ling Cao didn’t say anything, Zhang Yu made a decision, then they must resolutely implement it.
One night passed, Zhang Yu and the others were rehabilitated, and the army returned to good condition.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yu called Xi Zhicai and Ling Cao.
“Zhicai, Ling Cao, Anhui city will not last long. According to estimates, it will be broken today or tomorrow. Although I do not want to rescue immediately, but it is not unsuccessful. We will attack from behind when the city is broken. The loss is reduced to a minimum.”
Xi Zhicai and Ling Cao expressed their understanding that Zhang Yu and the others are not very warriors, so proceed with caution.
Zhang Yu and the others moved the army secretly to hide in a mountain valley eight miles away from Wancheng.
At this time, the city of Anhui had been besieged by the Yellow Turban for more than ten days. The Yellow Turban was able to cope with it wave after wave. However, after five or six days, the Yellow Turbans from the surrounding county towns surrounded the county town.
So, they persisted for a few more days, but now it is difficult to persist Seeing that the city is about to be broken.
Seeing that Chengtou’s resistance is weakening, the morale of the Yellow Turban is rising.
“Quick, punch, punch me.”
“There will be food after the city is broken.”
The head of the yellow scarf yelled loudly, directing the yellow scarf to launch wave after wave, uninterrupted attack.
There are only a few hundred people on the defense, which is very difficult.
It was another tragic fight, and by the evening, there were already yellow turbans on the top of the city.
The people in the city were in panic. Many families had escaped before. The families who had not escaped from the city had sent some people to the city to resist. At this time, they closed the courtyard gate and made a final resistance.
Finally, the city wall could not resist the Yellow Turban, and the city gate was opened.
“Kill, kill.”
At the moment the city gate opened, all the yellow towels were excited.
It was dark just now. Under this darkness, I don’t know how much sin is hidden.
“Report, Wancheng is broken.”
“Report, Wancheng is broken.”
The scout hurriedly yelled at the same time, wanting to report the information to Zhang Yu as soon as possible.
“The whole army set off.” Zhang Yu waved his hand, and the army was ready, soon assembled, and then set off.
Zhang Yu chose to attack the Yellow Turban when the city was broken, for several purposes.
The first is to make these yellow turbans nowhere to escape. You must know that a yellow turban head is at least one point.
Secondly, after the Yellow Turban enters the city, they will inevitably disperse, and then it will be easier to deal with.
Although the Yellow Turbans are not strong enough, if there are more, Zhang Yu and the others will suffer more damage when they fight.
There is also a third, that Zhang Yu has selfish intentions. These yellow towels took a lot of property from other counties and blocked them in the city. All the seizures belonged to their own. If they were put in the wild, it would be very difficult to collect them.
