The World of Yellow Sky

"The military commander has an order to open the city gate!"

Following the order of the soldiers on the city, the soldiers of the Han army at the winch all exerted their strength together, and the heavy winch was slowly pulled.

The city gate made a dull sound, and the south gate of Beiqu City opened slowly amid harsh creaking sounds.

In this way, the gate of Beiqu City opened slowly in front of Lu Bu.

A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth. Do you want to check the seal?

Go ahead and check, the seal is genuine, and what clues can be seen, even the team on the official road, the banners and armor of the Han army in the team are also real.

Even he, the military marshal of the Shangjun Han Army, is true.

"Enter the city."

Lu Bu tilted his head slightly, and ordered.

Behind him, Cheng Lian and Wei Yue led a dozen knights, and followed Lu Bu slowly into the corridor of the city gate.

……

Jian Wen stood on the top of the wall, the uneasiness in his heart not only did not disappear, but became more and more uncomfortable.

He looked at the Han army outside the city, but he always felt a little strange, but he couldn't find any reason.

"Why exactly..."

Jian Wen squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the Han army outside the city again. At this time, the front team of the Han army outside the official road was only one or two hundred meters away from the gate of Beiqu City. If he had better eyesight, he could still see it. clear.

As the distance got closer, he finally realized that something was wrong. There seemed to be some blood on the army's banner.

Even when these sergeants were marching, they even took almost the same foot, which was a sight he had never seen before.

Could it be that this Han army was played by "moth thieves"!

Jian Wen was terrified, he thought of some rumors about the Yellow Turban Army, those who followed Xu An in the beginning were not human beings or ghosts, but changed by soybeans.

Precisely because the soldiers were scattered beans, the actions of those soldiers looked very rigid, and even the walking was uniform.

Frightened in Jian Wen's heart, the gate of Beiqu City opened wide, and the Han army outside the city obviously began to speed up.

"Where is Han Junhou, where is Han Junhou?!"

He seemed to be crazy, calling for Han Yu loudly, but at this time Han Yu had already walked off the horse path with his personal guards, and went to the city gate to welcome the reinforcements from Shangjun.

Jian Wen ran all the way, stumbled and ran down the horse path of the city wall.

He wants to tell the Marquis the news that the "Han army" outside the city is not the Han army, but the "moth thief" who has been eyeing the outside of Beiqu city for a long time!

Fortunately, it seems that the "moth thieves" outside the city did not enter the city gate so quickly, everything is still in time!

Jian Wen finally saw the familiar figure at the gate of the city.

Without thinking too much, he hastily shouted, "Han Yu!"

Han Yu stopped. Hearing Jian Wen's call, he turned impatiently and looked at the county lieutenant who stopped him.

He wanted to know why the county lieutenant wanted to stop him over and over again.

Han Yu turned around, but didn't hear any words from Jian Wen, but only saw a face that became terrified.

"you……"

Han Yu was about to speak, but suddenly a whistling wind came from his ear.

"puff!"

Han Yu felt as if his chest had been pierced by something, and then a sharp pain came from his waist and abdomen.

"what is this……"

Han Yu lowered his head and looked at his chest in a daze. A spear pierced through his chest. The tip of the gun passed through his chest and was firmly nailed to the ground.

Thick blood was slowly flowing down the barrel of the gun. He wanted to move, but he couldn't move at all.

Han Yu raised his head with difficulty. The sky and the earth seemed to be dimmed. He could no longer see the scene in front of him clearly. He tried his best to raise his hand and reached out to Jian Wen who was not far away, wanting to know what happened...

But before he could think about anything, the cold darkness had completely swallowed his consciousness.

Jian Wen sat slumped on the ground, the shock at the city gate almost scared him out of his wits.

Just as Jian Wen called to stop Han Yu, and when Han Yu turned his head, the knight dressed as a military officer at the corridor of the city gate also noticed Jian Wen's strange behavior.

When Jian Wen met the knight's eyes, he was almost frightened and stayed where he was.

Just as Jian Wen saw the knight, the knight quickly raised a spear from under the saddle and threw it.

Jian Wen didn't have time to remind him, but none of the graduates around the city gate reacted. The spear had pierced Han Yu's vest, and then came out from his chest, nailing Han Yu's body heavily to the ground.

"kill!"

Lu Bu took the black iron halberd, and looked coldly at the Han soldiers around the city gate, as if they were looking at corpses.

After a short period of stupefaction, the Han army at the gate of Beiqu City finally realized that this group of people must be "moth thieves" pretending to be the Han army!

"The moth thief has entered the city!"

A soldier ran back in panic with a face full of fear.

The Han troops around the city gate were divided into two groups. One group saw Han Yu being crucified on the spot, and raised their weapons to kill Lu Bu and others. Most of them were Han Yu's personal soldiers, and some of them officer.

While the other group was crying and shouting backwards, fleeing in embarrassment.

"The man's arm stops the car, it's beyond your own power!"

Lu Bu snorted coldly, and raised the black iron halberd in his hand.

"Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, you go to the city from the horse road, don't let them close the city gate, I'm enough here alone."

Cheng Lian and Wei Yue agreed, and without hesitation led a group of cavalry behind them to the bridleway.

Around the city gate, there were more than [-] Han soldiers who came to kill Lu Bu. Most of them were officers of the Han army, and Han Yu's personal guards. Naturally, they were better equipped and more powerful than the ordinary Han army.

Lu Bu was not afraid at all, and his seat had already been replaced with a new war horse, which was a bit taller than his previous one. This war horse was specially selected by Xu An from the army and presented to Lu Bu for use.

This war horse has black hair all over its body, without any variegated color, just like black satin, hence its name, black satin.

Four or five long halberds struck from one side at the same time, Lu Bu pulled the reins, the black satin under his seat let out a long hiss, and raised his hooves high, but seeing the black rainbow suddenly appear, those four or five long halberds were unexpectedly caught by Lu Bu on the spot cut off.

"drive!"

Lu Bu's legs suddenly grabbed the horse's belly, and the black satin under the seat galloped out like a black wind.

Lu Bu held the black iron halberd in both hands, and the black iron halberd roared and swept away in his hands. Several Han soldiers who came rushing screamed and fell in a pool of blood.

A team leader of the Han army held up a spear and stopped in front of Lu Bu's horse, trying to stab Lu Bu's mount down first.

But how could Lu Bu give him a chance? The moment the black satin was about to touch the spear, he was pulled away by Lu Bu, and then the black iron halberd hit the leader of the Han army hard.

The sharp halberd blade with its horsepower easily sliced ​​through the flesh and blood led by the Han army, and cut it into two pieces at the waist. The internal organs mixed with blood gushed out from his abdominal cavity.

"call out"

The sharp wooden whistle sounded through the south gate of Beiqu City.

Numerous soldiers with their heads wrapped in yellow scarves rushed into the corridor of the gate of Beiqu City with wild screams.

The Yellow Turban Army has completely controlled the city gate, and there is nothing that can stop them from advancing. Beiqu City has already belonged to Huang Tian in an instant!

On the official road outside Beiqu City, countless banners of the Han army were like garbage, and were randomly discarded on both sides of the official road by the Yellow Turban Army.

In the fourth year of Zhongping, 187, on February 28, Beiqu City was broken.

Chapter 2 Unexpected

When Lu Bu and others broke through the defenders at the city gate, the Yellow Turban Army outside the city rushed up and rushed into Beiqu City.

Han Yu, the chief officer of the army, died in battle, Wei Jianwen of Beiqucheng County was killed, and the Yellow Turban Army's offensive was as swift as a raging fire. No one in Beiqucheng could effectively organize the scattered soldiers to resist.

Among the Yellow Turban Army were Lu Bu, Xu Huang and other generals in front. Some Han generals who tried to resist were wiped out by the galloping Yellow Turban cavalry without even setting off the waves.

The county magistrate and county magistrate of Beiqucheng committed suicide, and most of the officials and civil servants in the county government chose to surrender.

The melee in Beiqu City did not last long. The Han army's small-scale resistance lasted only a quarter of an hour, and more than 1000 Han troops in the city chose to surrender.

Those who were temporarily recruited were sent home by the Yellow Turban Army.

The red flags originally lined up on the city wall of Beiqu were all replaced with yellow flags before dusk.

As night fell, in the entire Beiqu city, except for the military barracks in the city that were still flickering with fire, there was only one attic in the county government office with a light that had not been extinguished.

Xu An rubbed his temples. Although many lights were lit in the room, the topographic map of mountains and rivers in front of him still looked a little blurry.

Yan Zhong stood beside Xu An, looking at the map in front of him together with Xu An.

In the entire northern part of Hedong County, the only place that still belongs to the Han Empire is Puzi City, which borders Xihe County in the north.

According to the latest news, nearly [-] soldiers have gathered in Puzi City, and the number is still increasing.

It seems that the Han army wanted to gather heavy troops on the front line of Puzi City, and then break through the defense of the Yellow Turban Army at Luliang Mountain in one fell swoop, and recapture Luliang Mountain.

Xu An sat down cross-legged again. In the past few days, his sleep time has become less and less, and it has become more and more shallow.

With the increase of the Han army, the current situation of the Baibo army in Luliang Mountain is not optimistic. The Han army began to attack the Baibo army camp guarding the northern part of Luliang Mountain. Now several camps have been broken.

The Baibo army is currently retreating. Fortunately, Gong Du, who is located in the Baibo Valley, led troops south because of Xu An, and Zhang Yan also surrounded Pingyang City.

Therefore, Gong Du who was stationed in Baibo Valley was also freed, and led his troops into Luliang Mountain to support Guo Tai.

Guo Tai got the support of Gong Du, which stabilized the situation in Luliang Mountain.

The shortcomings of the Baibo army, such as insufficient training, incomplete military equipment, and uneven quality, are also fully exposed in Luliang Mountain.

Yingwei's Tiqi also sent news that the support Han army from Meiyang has crossed the Yellow River and is marching towards Anyi and Wenxi. It is expected to arrive at Wenxi around March [-]rd.

Moreover, after careful observation, Tiqi reported that the Han army brought by Yuan Pang this time had a scale of about 2 people.

As for Anyi, the Yingwei Tiqi in the Wenxi area also roughly figured out the situation of the Han army in the east of the river. Now the Han army gathered in the north of Wenxi City has more than [-] people.

Once the two Han armies join forces, the Han army will have more than 3 troops on the south bank of the Fen River.

This was totally unexpected by Xu An. After all, based on the information Xu An had obtained before and the memory in his mind, he calculated that the reinforcements from the Han army would be at most 1 people.

After all, there are not many Han troops gathered in Meiyang. The Xiliang army in Liangzhou defeated the Han army's pursuit one after another. According to Xu An's calculation, the Han army needs to guard against Liangzhou's invasion of the central area, and can send support There must not be many soldiers in Hanoi.

But the current situation was unexpected by Xu An.

"Why did Zhang Wen send so many soldiers to Hedong?"

Xu An was sitting in front of the desk, with no thoughts in his mind. The situation in Hedong had exceeded his expectations, and he still underestimated the strength of the Han Empire.

He thought that in the battle of Kuicheng, the entire army of the county soldiers supporting Hanoi in Hedong County was annihilated, and they should be seriously injured.

But what I didn't expect was that in a short period of time, the powerful family in Hedong instantly helped the Han army organize a trilogy of more than 5000 people.

Sure enough, in the land of Sili, those entrenched families are not comparable to the tycoons of Shangdang County.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the entire Shangdang County had a population of only 60 to [-], while Hedong County had nearly [-] people, not counting the hermits and the slaves of powerful families.

The powerful family in the land of Sili is naturally not as barren as Shangdang County, and the place that used to be a border county can not be compared.

Xu An only considered military issues, but he didn't know that those aristocratic families in Hedong County had many high-ranking officials in the court.

The Yellow Turban Army's invasion of Hedong County naturally caused a strong reaction from these aristocratic families.

The pressure of those aristocratic families in the court was on Zhang Wen's shoulders, and the emperor Liu Hong didn't want to lose Hedong County. After all, Hedong County belonged to the Department of Sili Xiaowei, and Sili was invaded. For an emperor, it can be described as a great shame. .

Beigong Boyu and others invaded the Sanfu area before, which shocked the government and the public, not to mention losing the entire Hedong County.

Moreover, Hedong County is still a tax-heavy place. Losing such a vast land and such a large population in Hedong County is tantamount to taking away Liu Hong's money bag.

In Liu Hong's mind, five Shangdang counties are no better than one Hedong county.

Under the pressure of all parties, Zhang Wen finally chose to take risks after repeated weighing, and sent a trilogy of as many as 2 people to Hedong County to help in the battle.

"More than 3 people..."

This is a heavy number. Xu An still remembers that in Xiaquyang, Huangfusong defeated the entire 16 Yellow Turban army with [-] Han troops in one fell swoop.

The city of Pingyang was so strong that Zhang Yan could not attack it for a long time, so a large number of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were dragged under the city of Pingyang.

The Baibo army in Luliang Mountain was also trapped in a bitter battle because of the reinforcements from Xihe County and the alliance between the local tycoons and the Han army. They were unable to withdraw and even needed support.

Even if a group of soldiers were transferred from Shangdang County before, now under Xu An's command, all he can call is the more than 3000 soldiers directly under his jurisdiction who are dispatched with him.

In other words, Xu An now has 2 people to face the Han army's 7000 people. This situation is simply terrible.
