The World of Yellow Sky

Ten years, a full ten years, the Han army in Bingzhou could not even suppress the Southern Huns who had surrendered to their feet and dared not resist.

However, the imperial court seemed to have forgotten about them, and just barely maintained the existing troops in Bingzhou. It was not until the second year of Zhongping, when the Yellow Turban Army defeated Jinyang and lost the battle of Jinyang, that the emperor Liu Hong remembered Bingzhou.

Not only did the Yellow Turbans who went out remember Xu An's words, but the people on the outskirts also remembered Xu An's words.

"Thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, China's wilderness, and the world, all the poor people, all the ordinary people, all the exploited, all the oppressed, all the bullied, are all my compatriots! I am all equal!"

"Save our compatriots, our compatriots who are suffering, from suffering!"

Chapter 263 Hao Zhao

"Minggong, the two of us still have the defense of the city, so we will retire first."

After Guo Daxian and Zuo Miaozhangba entered the city, they bid farewell to Xu An.

Xu An nodded. Guo Daxian was maintaining the defense of the outer city, while Zuo Miaozhangba was maintaining law and order in the city. The defense of Jinyang City really needed the two of them.

It has been some time since the Yellow Turban Army occupied Jinyang, and there have been more pedestrians on the streets.

Hao Zhao noticed that among the knights following Xu An, there was a young man who was not wearing a military uniform but only a blue robe, and he didn't look very old.

This man stood out from the group of cavalrymen who were wearing helmets and armour. Although he was not wearing military uniform, he looked bookish, but he was also somewhat heroic.

All this made Hao Zhao extremely curious. The young man's curiosity drove Hao Zhao to keep looking at the person in front of him.

Hao Zhao also noticed that this man was quite strong, although he had a bookish look and was not wearing a military uniform, he still looked majestic, and even surpassed those soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who wore helmets and armor.

Moreover, judging from the way he held the rein and the way he rode the horse, Hao Zhao had a feeling that this person's riding skills must be particularly superb, and he also looked like a warrior, which made Hao Zhao almost curious. emerge on the table.

Hao Zhao likes bowing horses and military matters, and admires heroes very much. This person seems to be a more important person beside Xu An, and it makes Hao Zhao feel friendly.

In the sixth year of Xiping, although he was very young, he vaguely remembered that year, almost everyone in the clan wore hemp.

In his memory that year, it was just white linen, and crying everywhere he went, as if it had never been cut off.

As Hao Zhao grew older, he also knew what happened in the sixth year of Xiping, and he also knew why in that year, his memory was full of white cloth and mournful crying.

His uncle, many of his relatives died in that battle.

From that year on, the situation of the Hao family took a turn for the worse. Hao Zhao, a powerful and powerful son who used to be well-clothed and well-fed, also experienced hunger and fear.

This is also the reason why Hao Zhao likes horse bows and soldiers, admires heroes, and makes friends with rangers.

What Hao Zhao always wanted was to join the army after the crowning ceremony, drive out the Hu captives in the north, revive the momentum of the Hao family, and wash away the humiliation suffered by the defeat in the past.

Bingzhou was controlled by the Yellow Turban Army, and the Hao family was actually ready to flee, but the Yellow Turban Army quickly took control of several cities and implemented military control, which also restricted the escape of the Hao family.

Hao Zhao had no intention of joining the Yellow Turban Army at first, but he saw the Eagle Wolf Guards and those majestic and murderous soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army wandering around Yuci City.

So when Hao Zhao heard that the Yellow Turban Army was going to collect and expel the Huns, he rode alone all the way from Yuci to Taiyuan.

After seeing the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army, Hao Zhao is young, but he is also concerned about the general situation of the world. He knows the rebellion in Liangzhou, he knows the turmoil in the interior, and he knows the changes in Bingzhou.

Seeing the power of the Yellow Turban Army outside Jinyang City, Hao Zhao couldn't wait any longer. He had heard the rumors and deeds of Xu An, and perhaps following this man could really revive the Hao family's momentum.

As for the liquidation of the court if the Yellow Turban Army is defeated, Hao Zhao is not worried. He has an uncle who is an official in the court, and he will never sit idly by, and he is only 14 years old.

He refused to listen to dissuasion and joined the Yellow Turban Army, and he was not the heir of the Hao family, so he was not worth mentioning at all.

"My lord, Hao Zhao, if you dare to ask your name, what position do you hold in the army?"

Hao Zhao pulled the horse towards the young man and asked in a low voice.

But the man was facing forward and only glanced sideways at Hao Zhao, but he didn't answer Hao Zhao's words.

Hao Zhao was not discouraged, and was waiting to ask again.

But at this time, the sunlight in front of his eyes was blocked by a shadow.

"Going out to march in the army, helping the front and the rear, talking loudly, and not obeying the forbidden instructions, this is called a disorderly army, and the offender will be beheaded."

Hao Zhao was startled, and turned his head to look, only to see that the soldier captain who had been following Xu An had indeed arrived by his side at this time.

Hao Zhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, no wonder this person didn't talk to him.

but……

If he violated the military regulations, he wouldn't really be executed.

Hao Zhao's complexion changed slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

At this moment, there was a burst of laughter in front of him.

Hao Zhaoxun looked at the reputation, but they had already arrived outside the government office in Jinyang City, and the laughter came from Xu An's mouth.

Xu An scolded with a smile: "Xu Da, Zhang Ji is gone, you have found a newcomer to scare you."

Hearing Xu An's words, Hao Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. If he died because of such a thing, it would be extremely unworthy.

Xu An laughed, and continued speaking.

"However, Xu Da is right in one thing. The military regulations he just mentioned really exist."

"This is one of the military regulations of our Yellow Turban Army. If there are such soldiers on the march, they will definitely be killed."

Xu An looked solemn.

"I see your demeanor on horseback, your conversation is extraordinary, you want to join the army, and you are quite proud. I think you have practiced martial arts with knives and guns, right?"

"Correct."

Hao Zhao nodded, what Xu An said was indeed true.

"A military battle is no better than a street fight, and a ranger's death fight is even less brutal than a battlefield fight. Have you ever seen a battle in a battle formation?"

"No."

Hao Zhao shook his head.

"Fighting on the battlefield, fighting in the army formation, the left and right are shoulder to shoulder, and the front and back are almost touching the backs of the soldiers in front."

"In a majestic formation, thousands of people line up to advance. The brave must not be the first, and the timid must not be left behind. Even if there are thousands of troops in front of the formation, they cannot retreat half a point."

Xu An tied up the horse, looked at Hao Zhao who was thinking and said.

"If you have heard about the deeds of some heroes and fierce generals, beheading generals and capturing the flag is like picking something out of a bag, so if you think that in our army, you can rely on some martial arts and want to be a heroic general to compete for this feat of beheading generals and capturing the flag, I advise you to go early go home."

"Most of those who kill the general and capture the flag are warriors in the army. They are all people who have experienced countless battles and have been battle-tested."

"Take the Han army as an example. If the Han army has two camps and 200 men in one team, if they have infantry bows, halberd shields, swords and guns and fight in formation, do you know how to break them?"

Hao Zhao shook his head again. He really didn't know about the military affairs that Xu An mentioned. Although he had someone who served in the army at home, he didn't teach him, after all, he was still young.

"Either use an army formation, a majestic formation to fight against the army formation, stabbing with spears, stabbing with spears, slashing with knives, killing and returning him, and rushing in together until one side collapses."

"There is another kind, which is what you have heard about beheading the generals and capturing the flag. Use elite soldiers and armored soldiers to assault the army formation, find out the weak or deadly points of the enemy army, open the gap, enter from the gap, and attack the enemy. Disrupt the formation of the army and defeat the local area in one fell swoop."

"Despite the great feats of beheading generals and capturing the flag, even a fierce general must have a solid armor, hold a sharp blade, and have personal guards guarding the rear on both sides in order to obtain it."

Hao Zhao's face had already darkened. What Xu An said, he hadn't thought about it before.

"Even if you are really excellent in martial arts, but you are only fourteen this year, and you are still young, you can't bear the weight of a solid armor, and you can't fight for a long time."

Xu An stared at Hao Zhao in front of him, and now he remembered who Hao Zhao was.

In the second year of Taihe (228), Zhuge Liang led his army to the Northern Expedition. He was blocked by more than 1000 soldiers led by Hao Zhao in Chencang. Yu day.

Zhuge Liang also failed to defeat Chen Cang, and was forced to retreat in the end.

When Xu An played Three Kingdoms Killer before, Hao Zhao had a line that he always kept in mind.

"Although Kong Ming has a hundred calculations, he is no match for my thousand bones!"

But now Hao Zhao is only 14 years old, which is still too young.

Hao Zhao lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xu An's words also calmed Hao Zhao, who had followed Xu An in the military parade and witnessed the power of the Yellow Turban Army, and was quite complacent.

Chapter 264 Entrance

As Xu An's words settled down, the atmosphere was a little dull for a while.

Only then did Hao Zhao feel that his thoughts were really naive. He made friends with rangers, and with his family's financial resources, he also supported some family soldiers and followers.

Moreover, although Hao Zhao is only over fourteen years old, he has also practiced martial arts with the generals and schools in the army. If it is a street fight in the city and the streets, with weapons in hand, there are few rangers around Yuci who are his opponents.

Hao Zhao's original plan was to use these family soldiers and retainers as capital for promotion, at least to be able to serve as an officer in the Yellow Turban Army, and then use his military merits to climb up step by step.

However, the family soldiers and those retainers who followed behind him may be considered good fighters in the fights in the city and the village, but when they saw the military parade today, Hao Zhao knew what the world was like, even if Xu An didn't see it at all. Many of his followers and soldiers.

"laugh--"

The snorting of war horses was especially harsh in this quiet environment.

At this moment, Hao Zhao raised his head again, but there was no more confusion in his eyes.

Xu An was slightly startled. Could it be that this young man has thought clearly in just a short time?

Hao Zhao made a series first, straightened his spine, and watched Xu An's words neither humble nor overbearing.

"A great virtuous teacher, although I, Hao Zhao, do not have the courage of a champion or the wisdom to wait for others, there are still things that ordinary people can't do. Since I was eight years old, I have followed my uncle, learning to defend the city and deploy battle formations. The Hao family has a total of 24 volumes of military books and equipment for defending the city."

"The contents of these 24 volumes of books are all written in my mind. Maybe I don't have great virtuous teachers, and the generals of the Yellow Turban Army have such rich battle experience, but when it comes to defending the city, equipment Forging, I thought that under the command of a great virtuous teacher, there should be no one who is more proficient than me."

Hao Zhao stepped forward, slightly bowed to Xu An, and said sincerely: "Hao Zhao would like to use this as a qualification for promotion, but I don't know if a great virtuous teacher would like to accept him as a disciple."

Xu An looked at Hao Zhao, who had readjusted his mentality after being depressed for a moment, and also smiled.

With such a mind and knowledge, it's no wonder that even Zhuge Wuhou couldn't break through the Chen Cang he was defending.

"Although Kong Ming has a hundred calculations, he is no match for my thousand bones!"

As expected of Hao Zhao!

"Hao Zhao obeys the order!"

Xu An's voice came.

Hao Zhao bowed his head again, and replied loudly, "Hao Zhao is here!"

"From now on, you are one of the millions of members of my Taiping Dao. You are allowed to enter the Jinyang City Taoist Hall, and help me handle government affairs and miscellaneous affairs in your free time."

"promise!"

Hao Zhao's heart was surging, he suppressed his excitement, and shouted loudly.

Entering the Dao and enrolling in school is a small matter, but getting permission to accompany Xu An, helping with government affairs and handling chores, this is undoubtedly valued by Xu An.

Xu An said with a smile: "Today, you will help me with some chores first, so that you can get acquainted. By the way, let me see your abilities and talents. Let me see whether you are a boastful person or a real talent."

"You have stayed at the gate of the government office for too long, let's enter the government office first."

After Xu An said, he should step into the government office first.

Hao Zhao and his entourage entered the room together.

As soon as he entered the government office, Hao Zhao clearly felt busy.

To and fro, there were hasty-looking clerks with bamboo slips in their hands, weird men in strange costumes with strange weapons on their waists, and messengers with yellow scarves on their heads and feathers on their backs. )ㄣ ˉ

After walking for a certain distance, he finally walked into the depths of the government office, where Xu Anping's daytime office is located.

Xu An took off his shoes and walked into the house.

Hao Zhao followed the young man into the house, while Xu Da and other guards stayed in the courtyard.

Stepping into the house, Hao Zhao had a panoramic view of everything in the room.

The house is not big, and the decoration is not luxurious, except for the main seat where Xu An is sitting, there are only four desks and a few lampstands, and no other items were visited.

It's not like the extravagant luxury of other powerful landlords' homes, where all kinds of decorations are placed.

This is the leader of the Taiping Road, the residence of the great virtuous teacher?

Hao Zhao was a little puzzled. All this seemed unbelievable for a ruler who almost occupied the entire Bingzhou.

Hao Zhao looked around. Next to the first seat was Xu An's seat. There were two people wearing the weird costumes before, who seemed to be guarding Xu An's side.

Their clothes are all ivory white, and on the chest of the weird clothes, the one on the left is embroidered with a ferocious wolf's head, and the one on the right is embroidered with a goshawk with fluttering wings.

In the house, apart from the two of them, there were also eight dark blue armored soldiers in light leather armor with the same strange weapon on their waists.

Could it be that these people are the notorious Eagle Wolf Guards in Shangdang County!
