The World of Yellow Sky

Xu An closed his eyes.

All kinds of things from the past resurfaced in front of his eyes.

Those who are chased almost have no way to go to the sky, no way to go to the earth, panic like a bereaved dog, and have lived and died several times...

Guangzong, Xiaquyang, Jingxingguan...

Those Beijing temples one after another, the corpses floating on the river...

Chapter 657

The sky was twilight, and the world began to gradually become clear, and the darkness slowly receded from the earth, hiding in a sheltered dark place.

Outside Shenyuan Pass, two battalions of cavalry troops, Xiaoqi Battalion and Xiliang Battalion, were stationed outside the pass to guard.

The Xiaoqi camp lives in the south, and the Xiliang camp lives in the north. They are like horns of each other, watching and helping each other.

The camp of the Yellow Turban Army is located in the middle, covered by two cavalry battalions in the central safe zone.

The commander of the Xiaoqi battalion has always been Lu Bu since the founding of the army, and the Xiliang battalion was a cavalry army newly established after Xu An defeated Liangzhou, and the position of commander was appointed by Xu An to Guan Hai.

Among the generals of the Yellow Turban Army in the four states, only Ji Ang and Guan Hai, who have reached the rank of general, are General Yangwei and General Wuwei respectively.

Although Zhang Kai, who was killed in the Battle of Zhangshui, was named General Fengyi by Xu An, Zhang Kai is no longer alive after all, and has no effect on the current Taipingdao.

Bian Xi, Guan Cheng, Zhang Rao, Xu He, and Sima Ju are all titled lieutenants and served in the fifth-rank military.

Ji Ang and Guan Hai are the generals, and Bian Xi and others are the school lieutenants, but in fact they have never held military power.

It's different from the fact that Xu An's army is full of elite soldiers who have been screened.

The Sizhou Yellow Turban Army is no different from the previous Yellow Turban Army. They are all soldiers, including women. As long as they have a weapon, whether it is a wooden spear or a farm tool, they can be called the Yellow Turban Army.

When the Yellow Turban Army of the Four States entered Bingzhou, Xu An finally left only nearly [-] veterans who had been screened and experienced, and dispersed them as garrison troops in various regions.

Ji Ang, Guan Hai and other Yellow Turban Army generals from the four states naturally lost their military power.

Ji Ang had gone through a long journey and was tired of disputes, so Xu An arranged to manage the farming affairs, and Sima Ju also took the initiative to choose to manage the farming affairs.

With the experience of going all the way and traveling long distances, the affairs of farming did not bother them.

But Guan Hai and the others didn't want to just stay in the safe rear. They walked all the way, what they saw, heard, and everything that happened made the anger in their hearts burn more intensely, and the hatred in their hearts was like a swamp. The poisonous weeds in it grow wildly.

Xu An put them into the sequence of Tuntian before, and later transferred them to the team of the Yellow Angel and Teng Xiangwei to fight as personal subordinates.

However, after the formation of the Xiliang Camp, Xu An asked Guan Hai to lead the Xiliang Camp, with Bian Xi and others as his generals.

The battalion officer of the Xiaoqi battalion was Lu Bu, the battalion officer of the Wuxiang battalion was Zhang Yang, the battalion officer of the Shanggu battalion was Yan Rou, the battalion officer of the Bingzhou battalion was Zhang Liao, and the battalion officer of the Duliao battalion was Li De.

None of the battalion officers of the five cavalry battalions came from the Taiping Road, and none of them were from the Yellow Turban Army at first.

Xu An didn't think about the fact that the Fifth Battalion of Cavalry would rebel. The idea of ​​Taipingdao had penetrated into the hearts of every soldier.

However, the issue of faction balance must be considered. After the stability of Liangzhou, the status of the Liangzhou faction in the Taiping Road has risen too much, and the balance between the factions has been destroyed.

The Bingzhou faction and the Liangzhou faction are also quite close because of their previous relationship.

Xu An originally wanted Yan Liang or Wen Chou to be the battalion officer of the Xiliang Camp, but in the end he changed his mind and let Guan Hai be in charge.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou are now serving as personal guards in the Tengxiang Guard.

It was twilight, and the sound of the bed whistle had not yet sounded in the Xiliang camp, but the whistle would sound soon.

When camping outside, the wake-up whistle in the army is not blown according to the hour, but according to the hour of dawn.

When the sky gets brighter, the sound of the whistle will be heard all over the Xiliang camp soon.

"This fog is really thick..."

On the barracks wall, a tall soldier of the Xiliang Army grumbled, took out a clean piece of cloth, dipped it in water on the wooden barracks wall, and wiped it vigorously. Face.

The cold feeling on his face lifted his spirits.

A yellow-faced soldier not far from him took up the conversation.

"The further south you go, the hotter it gets. I don't know when it's going to be hot in this damn weather."

Luoyang area in July is the hottest time of the year.

The cavalry troops of the Xiliang camp, except for some generals who were from the Yellow Turban Army and not from Liangzhou, all the ordinary soldiers without exception are native Xiliang people. Among them are Qiang people, Di people, and more are Han people.

They are used to the coldness of Xiliang, and the climate of Xiliang. After all, Luoyang in July is too hot for them.

"Fortunately, we are on duty these days, and we can sleep in tents during the day, so we don't have to stand in the sun to guard the camp during the day."

The tall Xiliang soldier who had just wiped his face let go of the spear in his hand, and while wiping his hands, chatted with the yellow-faced soldier.

Are the two of them from the same hometown, or have the same surname and clan,

"I heard that there is still one pass left in front of us. Soon Yuanguan will be ours. At that time, the seven passes near Luoyang will be taken down by us. I heard from Fu Zhu in the team that we have taken down Zhiyuan Pass. We can rest for a long time. It's been a long time."

"Quickly get out of this..."

"and many more……"

The tall Xiliang soldier holding the cloth strip moved his eyes slightly, and looked towards the north suspiciously.

"what happened?"

The yellow-faced soldier followed the gaze of the tall soldier, but found nothing.

"Did you hear any other noises?"

"No……"

……

"The military situation is urgent, the eagle and wolf guards are urgently reporting, and those who block the way will be killed immediately!!"

In the third pass of Zhuyuan Pass, a eagle wolf Wei Ti galloped into it on a horse holding a token high up.

The soldiers guarding the gate did not stop them, and quickly moved out of the way.

The courier who escorted the military urgent order must have extremely important information. So far, there are not many news that the Yellow Turban Army can use the military urgent order.

"Step aside!"

The Tiqi of the Eagle Wolf Guard whipped his whip crazily, he didn't intend to stop at all, and galloped directly towards Xu An's camp.

"A military urgent order?!"

Xu An stood up, staring at the Yinglang Wei Tiqi who had just arrived in the big tent in front of him.

Although the identity of the Eagle Wolf Wei Tiqi had been checked, Xu Hong was still cautious.

Xu An opened the package and unfolded the letter inside.

"July [-]th, the revolving door is broken, and the enemy cavalry is moving fast to the south!"

A line of words written in black ink caught Xu An's eyes, but the black ink made Xu An feel that his eyesight had gone wrong, and he even called it bloody.

"How could the revolving door break?"

Xu An tightly held the letter in his hand, his expression darkened.

Xuanmenguan is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north. The mountains and ridges are criss-crossed, forming a natural danger.There is a situation where one man is in charge of the gate, and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it.

It is not much inferior to Yuanyuan Pass, how could it be broken in such a short time.

"impossible."

Gong Du was furious, and grabbed the eagle wolf Wei Tiqi who reported the letter.

"The Revolving Gate Pass is dangerous, and there are more than [-] soldiers defending it. What will the Han army use to attack?"

"Even if the Han army really attacked, how could it be possible that the news was not delivered until three days later?!"

The Ti Qi of the Eagle Wolf Guard looked gloomy and miserable.

"When the Han army attacked the Revolving Gate Pass, we sent messengers to Luoyang and Yuyuan..."

Gong Du's expression froze slightly, and he stopped shouting and cursing. "

"We've been tricked..."

"All of us walked up the city wall to resist the Han army, but no one noticed the rear..."

"A group of soldiers and horses entered the revolving door pass from inside the pass. There are enemies on all sides. We have no way to resist..."

Gong Du slowly let go of his hand, and the Ti Qi of the Eagle Wolf Guard was already crying and lying on the ground.

"The enemy army rushed into Guanzhong, and the army formation was dispersed. We couldn't resist at all..."

……

"The time has finally come..."

On the Guanlou, Huangfusong's eyes narrowed slightly.

In the early hours of the morning, there was a thick fog, which was undoubtedly the best cover.

"The appearance of a bear and a tiger and the voice of a jackal... The Xu brothers' comments are really correct..."

Liang Yan stood beside Huangfusong.

"I checked the bamboo slips that recorded Xu An's life. Almost every choice he made would maximize the benefits he made. He made a decision before making a move. In just a few years, he was promoted from the mediocre team. For the lord of a state, it's a miracle."

"Unfortunately……"

Huangfu Song stared at the mountain path above the pass wall, there were still a lot of bloodstains on the mountain path, and the corpses of soldiers that the Yellow Turban Army could not bring back.

"If you want the fur of a thousand pieces of gold, the fox seeks its skin; if you want the treasure of a few prisons, you seek shame from the sheep."

Huangfusong leaned on the railing of the Guanlou, raised his upper right, and slowly pushed forward.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The desolate and low sound of the horn suddenly sounded from the Yuanguan Pass.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, the sound of rumbling war drums resounded in the Yuanguan Pass.

Under the Yuanguan Pass, the dilapidated closed gate that the Yellow Turban Army had tried everything possible to open was slowly pulled open by the Han Army.

"mighty!"

The roar of mountains and tsunami suddenly came from the No. 11 checkpoint of Yuyuanguan, and countless Han troops swarmed out, swarming forward along the mountain road.

"Yuan Shao, Yuan Benchu..."

Huangfusong turned his head and looked to the north. He leaned on the railing with one hand and pressed the sword on his waist with the other. A trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.

……

Xu An's face was gloomy. If the news of the fall of the Turning Gate Pass was true, then the Luoyang area would no longer be safe.

Although there is a counterweight trebuchet, as long as it is not a winding and rugged level like Shenyuan Pass, ordinary levels cannot cause too much hindrance to the Yellow Turban Army.

But the position of the revolving door gate determines that once the revolving door is lost, the revolving door will not be easily taken down by the Yellow Turban Army.

At first, the Revolving Gate Pass was controlled by the Han army. After Xu An captured Luoyang, he immediately sent troops to attack the Revolving Gate.

Although the Xuanmen Pass was controlled by the Han army at that time, most of the main force of the Han army was in Dongjun, and there was no time to take care of the Xuanmen Pass. Therefore, the Yellow Turban Army was able to quickly capture the Xuanmen Pass.

But now the Battle of Dongjun is probably over. Sun Jian led the main force of the Han army to retreat southward, saving a lot of vitality for the Han court.

If Xu An wanted to attack the revolving door again, he would never have such a chance again.

The tens of thousands of Han troops led by Sun Jian will be called the strongest backing of the Revolving Gate Pass.

The fog filled the air, and Xu An's uneasiness became more and more serious.

A group of generals from the Yellow Turban Army followed behind Xu An, and Xu An had just walked out of the Yuanguan Pass with his horse.

A hasty sound of horseshoes came from the thick fog ahead.

All the generals surrounding Xu An were on full alert. Yan Liang and Wen Chou, one on the left and one on the right, stood in front of Xu An with a knife and a gun.

"Great virtuous teacher!"

A messenger with negative feathers on his back hurriedly broke through the thick fog.

He saw the big banner standing behind Xu An, and also saw the banners of the Tengxiang Guards.

The messenger was led by Tengxiangwei's cavalry and soon came to Xu An's body.
