The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 5 One mistake and I turned into a candied haws of sugar.
Outside the city of Zhuojun, at the foot of Daxing Mountain.

The Cheng and Liu armies exchanged fire fiercely.

The drums and horns of contention make people excited, and the light of the knife combined with the shadow of the sword and the rake digging and raking fiercely.

Officers and soldiers continued to fall, surrounded by the Yellow Turbans, making up for the last blow...

But it was the Yellow Turbans who fell more... this group of farmers holding logs.

They have nothing to fear for the time being...

Fight to the death with Liu Beijun!

Time passed little by little, and suddenly, the sun set in the west and it was almost dusk.

The blood merged into streams, staining the green grassland under Daxing Mountain red.

Of the [-] soldiers brought by Liu Bei, there were only a dozen or so left, tightly surrounding the three brothers and Zou Jing, desperately resisting the boundless and endless Yellow Turban Army.

These dozen or so people are all servants of the Zhang family. They grew up with Zhang Fei, practiced martial arts together, slaughtered pigs together, and joined the army together.

After fighting for half a day, they couldn't remember how many enemies they had killed. Their bodies had long been numb, and they only relied on their belief in Zhang Fei's force value and muscle memory to hold their last breath and wave the weapons in their hands mechanically.

Looking from a distance, a small group of bluish-white people was in the center of countless yellow circles, like the meat of a thousand-layer bun, repelling the yellow army that was constantly squeezing in the middle.

But no one is the enemy of Liu Guan and Zhang Yihe,
At the same time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei couldn't surpass tens of thousands of people, and cut through the formation.

encircled
With a sudden swing of the spear in Zhang Fei's hand, he swept down a large group of Yellow Turban soldiers in front of him, and said in a tired voice, "Second brother, I killed 483 of them!"

There are two meanings in his words, one is to ask for credit to show off and boost morale at the same time; the other is to ask Guan Yu how many people he killed.

Guan Yu blushed and took a quick breath,

"The third brother is brave..."

At the same time, he thought to himself: "Third brother actually killed so many! After all, he is a young man with strong firepower! Brothers are not as many as younger brothers."

Thinking this way, I would never be able to say that I am not as good as Zhang Fei.

Not to mention, firstly, he was worried about the third brother's pride, and secondly, as the second brother, he wanted to save face.

Of course, Guan Yu automatically ignored the second reason.

Zhang Fei turned his head, but he didn't follow his second brother's gaze, only saw the side face of a red-faced man who was half dead from exhaustion.

He curled his lips and had a deeper understanding of his elder brother's words, "The chat ends with Guan Yu."

Liu Bei was dressed neatly, looking at the two brothers who were protecting him and fighting hard, his eyes were red, and he almost shed tears.

Zou Jing on the side looked enviously...

He had an arrow stuck in his chest, his left leg was cut twice, his right leg was beaten with a wooden stick and he almost lost consciousness, both arms were hanged, and his head was full of blood...

I don't know if it was a small stone thrown by some wicked ghost.

Blood trickled down his forehead, leaving traces on his face.

His force value is not high, and he has no one to protect him, so he is in a miserable situation...

Because the distance is too far, Cheng Yuanzhi can't see more content.However, he knew that the outcome had been decided at this time, and Liu Bei had no choice but to break out of the encirclement and retreat.

My life is saved!
Cheng Yuanzhi was overjoyed, and just after he breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a cavalry force appearing in the direction of Zhuojun City, not many in number, about forty or fifty cavalry.

The cavalry came in a hurry, rushed all the way outside the encirclement of the Yellow Turban Army, broke through the formation without delay, and killed Liu Bei and others.

The leader tried his best to chop down a yellow scarf warrior, and shouted loudly:

"Xuande, there is nothing to be done, retreat quickly!"

Liu Bei had intended to retreat a long time ago, and at this time, he took advantage of the slope to descend the donkey, and the three brothers immediately followed the gap made by the cavalry and broke out of the encirclement.

……

"Scatter the formation and let them go..."

"Don't chase after the poor, come back to me!"

"Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

"I'm so angry..."

Cheng Yuanzhi was so anxious that he jumped up and down that the flagpole was broken, but no one paid any attention to him.

When the Yellow Turbans saw the remaining blood, it was as if they had been given hormones, and tens of thousands of people chased after him.

They pursued him all the way to the gate of Zhuojun.

Seeing that the city was heavily guarded, everyone yelled symbolically under the city, and then retreated cursing.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and camps had already been set up at the foot of Daxing Mountain.

Amidst the smoke, everyone held broken bowls and pancakes, discussing the battle during the day with high spirits.

Around the camp, the half-person-high grass and thorns were cut down to create gaps, and in all directions, haystacks were piled up with dead leaves and foam.

The camp is backed by the lush Daxing Mountain, and there are flammable objects everywhere.

No matter whether it is ordinary troops, warriors, or the generals of the enemy and us, no one thinks there is anything wrong with camping here.

Only Cheng Yuan shook his head secretly, anxiously thinking of a way out.

Today I was lucky enough to defeat Liu Bei and kill 500 officers and soldiers, at the cost of losing more than 1 people.

20:1 battle loss!
The more than 1 people who died were all brave and fearless warriors in the Yellow Turban formation... Those who were afraid of death hid behind.

Just bluffing, not stepping forward.

Most of the remaining 3 people are of this kind.

Tomorrow, if Liu Bei regroups and comes back again, I'm afraid we won't be so lucky.

With just one blow, the Yellow Turban Army will be defeated!
You don't even have to wait until tomorrow, as long as Liu Bei is willing to lead the crowd to light a fire tonight, he can turn defeat into victory.

……

"It's not as big brother expected!"

Under the dark night, on the towering Zhuojun City, Guan Yu looked at the bonfire at the foot of Daxing Mountain and sighed and asked:
"Brother, the Yellow Turban bandits don't besiege the city, but camp at the foot of Daxing Mountain. If you retreat, you can defend, and if you advance, you can attack by force. What should we do?"

The distance was too far, and he didn't know anything about the situation in the barracks opposite. In the darkness, Liu Bei's pale face was looming, and he thought it over and over again:

"I'll guard the city and regroup tomorrow, then go out of the city to fight it out!"

Leaning on crutches, Zou Jing, whose head was wrapped like a rice dumpling, shook his head and said:
"Xuande, although this method is safe, it is not the best policy."

Now, it was the life and death of Zhuojun City. Even though his body was covered with bandages, Zou Jing was unwilling to evacuate from the front line.

He wanted to see the Yellow Turban Army destroyed with his own eyes, otherwise I would be sorry for the injuries he suffered today!
At that time, eighteen yellow-turban wrestlers surrounded and beat him alone!

If he hadn't taken a moment, he would have been dug into a hornet's nest long ago.

How can we not avenge this hatred?

Zhang Fei stood up, struck the ground with the spear in his hand, and shouted anxiously:

"Brother, why don't you go to rob the camp tonight?"

In a word, I asked three people.

Yes, why not go to camp?

Taking the daytime battle as a reference, the Yellow Turban Bandit Army has no advantages other than having a large number of people, and its combat effectiveness is extremely weak.If they led a group of people to rush out suddenly at night, and they rushed straight, the opponent would definitely be in chaos!

Then take advantage of the victory to cover up the kill, and you can compete for full power.

"Where...the soldiers and horses come from? There are only five hundred guards in the city, how can we divide the troops to attack again? Lord Inspector is still in the city, if something goes wrong..."

Liu Bei was the first to react, and expressed his worries, and there was another sentence he refrained from saying.

The five hundred soldiers in the city were the governor Liu Yan.

The five hundred soldiers and horses that Zhang Fei had replaced with Huaguang's family property had already been wiped out.

The three of them sighed one after another, looking at the night sky speechlessly.

When they first went to battle, they were full of blood and courage. After a day of hard fighting, although they were physically tired, they were full of energy. At this time, they really wanted to go out and attack with all their strength, but the conditions did not allow it...

These soldiers in the city only obey the orders of the governor. Even if Liu Bei knew that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were enemies of ten thousand people, there was nothing he could do.
It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and it is difficult for a strong general to fight without soldiers.

"Second brother and third brother, let's rest early, we have to go to the battlefield tomorrow."

"yes, Sir!"

Guan and Zhang agreed and were about to retreat together.

Zou Jing on the side hastily shouted: "Wait a minute!"


As he spoke, he took out a token from his bosom, "Xuande, let's see, what is this!"

"The governor's warrant?" Liu Bei was taken aback.

"Exactly!"

Zou Jing smiled heartily: "Can this thing be accomplished?"

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "It can be done, it can be done! But I don't know..."

"Hmph! I am at odds with that yellow scarf thief!"

Zou Jing waved his hand angrily, and immediately said "Ouch". This movement touched many wounds all over his body, and the pain caused him to gasp several times.

The whole person is numb.

……

In the second watch, the night is dark and the wind is not high.

Liu Bei's soldiers took all the grass and all the horses, and quietly left the city to find the Yellow Turban camp.

At this time, Cheng Yuanzhi was already ten miles away, heading towards the northwest with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

In the end, he chose to leave the Yellow Turban army behind, and ran away alone as soon as it got dark.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to disguise himself as a member of the Yellow Turban tribe—with a piece of yellow cloth wrapped around his head.

In the wild at night, mosquitoes are rampant, and wild animals are screaming one after another.

Fortunately, Cheng Yuanzhi does not suffer from night blindness and can barely recognize the path.

Guessing that it was almost safe, he didn't dare to go any further, so he randomly found a big tree with a crooked neck, climbed up the branch, and slept with his clothes on, knife in his mouth.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard shouts of death coming from the direction of Daxing Mountain.
At first the sound was very quiet, then it gradually became louder, and then the shouts of killing shook the sky...

In the night sky, the first gleam of fire soon appeared, and then quickly rose into the sky, lighting up half of the sky.

……

The shouting and killing continued for a whole night, and it gradually stopped at dawn.

Cheng Yuanzhi looked around, identified the direction he was going, and jumped from the tree...

I plan to run away after landing, and from then on, the dragon enters the sea, and the tiger returns to the mountains, wow ha ha ha...

Oops!

Cheng Yuanzhi, whose thoughts were racing, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, and realized something was extremely wrong... His body kept sinking, and his feet did not land on the ground.

Finished!

He clearly saw that he had fallen into a huge deep pit under the tree, and there were rows of round logs in the pit, densely covered with sharp iron thorns.

with a snap.

Countless iron piercings passed through the body...

Cheng Yuanzhi's vision went dark, his head tilted, and he opened his mouth to spit out a stream of blood arrows.

Before his consciousness completely dissipated, his heart was filled with remorse.

Alas, a slip into candied haws.

……

When he woke up again, he immediately returned to Daxing Mountain, when the two armies were at war.

Seeing Zhang Fei's black face from a distance, Cheng Yuanzhi was very annoyed.

Before, he had thought of all kinds of perfect escape methods.

But it didn't work!
The end is always various deaths.

Now there is only one last chance to be resurrected.

Just thinking about it, the team of cavalry appeared, carrying Liu Guanzhang and three people, rushed out of the encirclement, and fled back to Zhuojun City.

The Yellow Turban Army once again swarmed up and chased them away.

Cheng Yuanzhi suddenly looked confused...

To go or not to go?
