The World of Yellow Sky

In such heavy rain, it is difficult for the scout cavalry to act. After all, although the scouts are the elite of the army, they are also human, and the horses under them are also flesh and blood. If they are forced to reconnaissance in the heavy rain, it is afraid that in a day, all the scouts will All fell ill in the army.

The scout cavalry simply cannot carry out effective reconnaissance in the pouring rain and high wind.

The muddy road made it more difficult for the horses to travel, and the wind and rain made it extremely difficult for the scouts to move. A little carelessness might even cause the horse to stumble and injure the knight on the horseback.

Xu An has already ordered all the scout cavalry to return to the camp, and the vanguard cavalry led by Bai Rao have all hid in the rain tent. It can be said that the camp of the Ming army has not set up much peripheral defense, but only in the camp. Some separate rain tents were set up in the outer area of ​​the city as guard posts, and once the enemy was found, they immediately whistled and warned.

The rain was flying all over the sky, flying down from the sky like thousands of sharp arrows, the rain fell on the rain tent, and then shattered into several petals on the rain tent.

It seems that the Milky Way in the sky overflows and bursts its banks, leaking down from the sky to the mortal world.

The sound of raindrops falling on the rain tent is like tens of thousands of people beating drums beside their eardrums at the same time. It is dense and loud, shocking and exciting, and the sound of rainwater keeps ringing in everyone's ears.

Under the rain tent, Xu An stood in front of a square table with a map, frowning and looking at the place on the square table.

Xu You, He Man and other generals of the Ming army also gathered under this rain tent, and everyone looked a little worried.

It rained heavily in the morning, but Xu An still managed to march nearly [-] miles with his troops.

In the end, seeing the heavy rain getting heavier, Xu An could only order to stop the march and rest the whole army.

This kind of wind and rain can no longer go forward. Forcibly going forward, I am afraid that the last thirty miles of the road will cause a large number of soldiers to be injured and infected with diseases due to the muddy road.

The infantry of the Wuju and Ruishi armies can ride on horseback, but their riding skills are only limited to this. It is completely difficult for them to fight on horseback. I am afraid that only Bingzhou can march on such a muddy road. Battalion, Shanggu Battalion and other cavalry troops can barely do it.

Xu An looked back from the Kanyu map, and at this moment he also felt that the camp seemed a little dull.

"This rain is God's help for our army, why are you here frowning?"

Xu An put the charcoal in his hand on the map, looked at the generals in the tent and said with a smile.

As soon as Xu An's words came out, everyone's eyes came together.

He Man looked a little puzzled, but he didn't know why Xu An said that the heavy rain was God helping them.

Everyone also looked at each other in blank dismay, even Xu You was a little puzzled.

After all, if there hadn’t been this wind and rain, I’m afraid that they would have been racing all the way now, and rushed to the outside of Fanyang City before the Han and Wei armies could react, defeating the main force of the Han army that was besieging the city in one fell swoop. The defeated soldiers of the Han army took advantage of the situation to defeat the main force of the Wei army to establish the victory.

But now they had to stop because of the wind and rain, which added a lot of variables to the upcoming battle.

"The last general is dull, and Duke Ming will ask for instructions."

He Man is straightforward and always speaks up when he has something to say.

What Xu An was waiting for was He Man's question. He Man had been with him for more than ten years. How could he not be clear about He Man's character? A low morale is not a good sign.

But what Xu An said was not entirely to boost morale.

This heavy rain did give the Ming army a greater advantage.

Along the way, the vanguard cavalry led by Bai Rao did not encounter any scouts from the Han army on the official road except for the one going to Liyang.

Through the telescope, the scout cavalry reported that the Han and Wei armies were still fighting for Fanyang City, but the outer city wall of Fanyang City had been breached, and two camps outside the city had also been breached.

The heavy rain forced the Han army to temporarily stop its offensive. Although the Han army re-entered the battle later, the rain still affected the attack speed of the Han army.

Originally, according to the original deduction, when they arrived not far from Fanyang, the Han army would find their traces. After all, the Han army had been consciously guarding the west, and was alert to the attack of the Yellow Turban army.

The original plan was just to fight the Han army with a predicted time difference. When the dispute between the Han and Wei armies was the most intense, the Han army never expected that their marching speed would be so fast. The Han army must be exhausted after a long battle. And because he attacked Fanyang, he didn't pay much attention to the outside of the city. Even if he was discovered at that time, he could still say "Jiangong".

But in the current situation, they have arrived at a place less than [-] miles away from Fanyang City, and they have not been discovered by the Han and Wei armies. This is an opportunity.

"Bows and crossbows are difficult to use in rainy days, so Wei Jun lost his strong bows and crossbows, and his combat power was greatly reduced."

"The road is difficult, the rain is heavy, the Han army is difficult to attack, and can only retreat. If the Han army forces an attack, even if it wins the battle, its soldiers will be exhausted and difficult to continue, and many people will suffer from diseases."

Facing the generals, Xu An said calmly.

"The wind and rain had a great impact on the Han and Wei armies. Although it has a negative impact on our army, the negative impact is the smallest, and there are some good impacts."

"Although the heavy rain temporarily prevented our army from advancing, this heavy rain also covered up our army's whereabouts. This heavy rain is the best cover for our army."

"There are many talismans in our army, and there is no shortage of herbal medicines. Soldiers who get sick from the rain can be cured, but getting sick from the rain is bad news for ordinary soldiers of the Han and Wei armies."

Song Xian and Wei Xu looked dignified. Both of them were from the old Han army.

Doctors in this era have limited knowledge of sword wounds. Even if the so-called golden sore medicine is applied to the school, there are often people who relapse from the old wound and die from the injury.

Moreover, ordinary soldiers are not able to receive much treatment. Those good ointments must be given priority to generals and officers. Many soldiers can only endure the pain in their bodies, and many people died on the sickbeds because of this.

Song Xian and Wei Xu looked dark because they remembered those Pao Ze who died in the army due to injuries when they were soldiers in Bingzhou.

After a great battle, far more people died from injuries than those who died on the battlefield.

The death rate of the wounded soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army was also high. It was not until Xu An compiled the "Hygiene Manual" and consciously spread the knowledge of how to nurse and disinfect to the army, which reduced the death rate of the wounded soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army to a low level. Degree.

Hua Tuo later entered Bingzhou with the Yellow Turban Army from the four states, and the Mafeisan developed by Hua Tuo also entered the army.

The survival rate of many wounded in the Yellow Turban Army has been improved a lot. Now most of the Yellow Turban Army Fu Zhu who accompany the army have been trained in medical schools, and they can even perform rather complicated surgical operations in the army.

"And most importantly, this wind and rain also gave our army more rest time."

Xu You's expression changed, what Xu An said was indeed correct.

The heavy rain really gave them a chance to breathe.

From Zhiguanxing all the way to Chaoge, it is more than five hundred miles, and then from Chaoge to Fanyang City for more than two hundred miles.

Although all the way is riding a horse and driving a car, it is not comfortable for a person to ride a horse and sit in a car.

The cavalry troops of Bingzhouying and Shangguying are not bad, but the horse-riding infantry such as Wuju and Ruishi can only be said to be relatively reluctant, after all, their riding skills are not good.

Those soldiers sitting in the carriage were also tossed by the bad road in Jizhou.

Although most of Jizhou is a plain area, which is much gentler than Bingzhou, Zhongzhou and other places, not every place is willing to spend money to repair roads like Xu'an.

The roads in Jizhou are basically unsatisfactory. The road conditions in many places can only be said to be barely enough for pedestrians to drive. They are not as smooth as the repaired roads in Taiping Road.

This heavy rain forced the Ming army to stop and lost a fighter opportunity, but gave the Ming army another excellent opportunity.

Now the soldiers of the Ming army are getting ready in the tents. They have changed out of the wet armor and put on the clean military uniforms in their luggage.

The wet robes were wrung out and dried together.

The atmosphere in the military tents is not dull, everyone is doing their own things.

Someone was wiping the rain-soaked armor with a sackcloth, someone was slowly sharpening the tip and blade of a gun with a whetstone, and someone was carefully maintaining the crossbow.

The sound of the rain gradually became dull, Xu An's expression moved slightly, he left the square table where the map was placed, and walked to the front of the curtain.

Two guards raised the curtain, and then the people outside the tent quickly moved the umbrella to Xu An's body.

The accumulated water outside the battalion commander flowed towards the west side. Although the camp was hastily set up, Xu An also chose a place with slightly higher terrain, and the accumulated water in the camp was not serious.

Although it was very subtle, he noticed that the wind and rain seemed to be slowly getting smaller.

……

"Boom--"

There was a loud thunder in the sky, and the dark sky became darker and darker.

"kill!!!"

In Fanyang City, the shouts of killing reappeared.

Yuan Shao stood in front of the battle, holding a sword in his hand.

Wearing heavy armor and fully armed to the teeth, the Wuwei Army is engaged in a tragic life-and-death fight with the sharp soldiers of the Han Army who are equally equipped.

The heavy armor on their bodies made the sharp weapons lose their original effect. The sharp soldiers of the Han army held up their shields, held short hammers and iron maces in their hands, and kept attacking the formation of the Wuwei army.

The hammers and maces kept hitting the shield of the Wuwei Army, with such a huge impact that the shield was even dented.

The soldiers of the Wuwei Army are arranged in a neat formation to resist the impact of the sharp soldiers of the Han army. The soldiers in the front row hold up the taton to form a shield wall, while the soldiers in the back row hold the big halberds in their hands. Constantly smashing towards the sharp soldiers of the Han army.

The sound of blunt objects hitting and the sound of bones breaking continued to resound in the formation of the two armies.

The fallen people have no chance to stand up again, and there is no room for turning around before the army formation.

The army formation of the sharp soldiers of the Han army is only ten steps away from Yuan Shao, but these ten steps are like a natural moat that cannot be crossed.

The generals of the Wei army broke out completely because of Yuan Shao's bravery, and their morale rose to a high point.

There was the sound of dense rain, and the rain was continuously flowing down the brim of Sun Jian's helmet.

But Sun Jian didn't care about everything, his eyes stayed on Yuan Shao all the time.

And Yuan Shao's gaze also stayed on Sun Jian's body, and the distance between the two was less than twenty steps.

Yuan Shao's eyes moved slightly, and his eyes narrowed slightly. His movement was not because of Sun Jian's abnormal movement, but because several four-wheeled carriages suddenly appeared behind the ranks of the sharp soldiers of the Han army.

The four-wheeled carriage is not a rare item. There are quite a few in the Yellow Turban Army, and they have even been used by the people. There is no technical problem, and it is easy to imitate, but those four-wheeled carriages are a bit strange.

There is an umbrella on the roof, but there is no shelter on all sides. There is a huge thing on top of each carriage that is covered by black cloth.

Just when Yuan Shao was still in doubt, a bad premonition crept into the heart of the judge.

"Lord!"

Shen Pei suddenly turned around and ran towards Yuan Shao.

At this moment, the black cloth on the carriage was suddenly pulled away.

Yuan Shaotong Kong suddenly shrank, he saw clearly what was on the carriage.

And at this moment, Sun Jian's roar had already reached Yuan Shao's ears.

"put!!!"

"Peng!" "Peng!" "Peng!"

The crossbowstring vibrates loudly.

Five crossbow guns pierced through the heavy rain curtain and shot towards Yuan Shao's direction!

Chapter 775 Once the clouds clear and see the sky again

The thunder and lightning disappeared, and the wind and rain faded away.

The outline of Fanyang City reappeared in front of the eyes of the Han army. The Han army's central army had already raised the blood flag. The Han army wanted to finish their work and completely defeat the Wei army who was stubbornly resisting in Fanyang City.

Outside Fanyang City, the cavalry of the Han Army under the leadership of Liu Bei took the initiative to attack and met the cavalry of the Wei Army protecting the east and west wings of Fanyang City.

The horse's hooves sounded like thunder, and the horse's iron hooves smashed the muddy road, causing countless water splashes.

The sound of riding horns resounded on the field outside Fanyang City, continuously, one after another.

The Han infantry of the brigade stepped out of the central army and ran towards Fanyang City.

The battle of Fanyang is about to come to an end, and they will be the victor!

There was no one on the earth platform of the Chinese army, and Huangfu Song had already stepped on his horse.

In this wave of victory and defeat, if the Wei army is allowed to persist until after the storm, when the power of the Wei army's crossbows has regained its power, and with the power to repel the Han army, it is really unknown who will win the battle.

On the high platform built in the camp of the Han army's central army, wrestlers wearing red scarves vigorously waved their drumsticks, one after another, beating the war drums violently.

The sound of the thick drums slowly spread from the high platform to the four directions. The huge drum sound echoed in the minds of every Han soldier in the Chinese army formation, and the strong drum sound struck every Han soldier. Above the ribcage of a sergeant.

Huangfu Song held the reins in his hand, and led a group of brave cavalry, galloping in front of the Han army's formation.

The fiery red flag was hunting and moving in the headwind. Wherever it passed, countless soldiers of the Han army struck their shields with swords and touched the ground with their halberds, shouting loudly.

All the troops of the Han army shouted "mighty" and cheered loudly for their generals!

For hundreds of years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there have been countless powerful enemies watching.

Overlord Chu, South Vietnam, North and South Xiongnu, Western Regions, Xianbei tribes...

Without exception, these powerful enemies all fell under their swords, all bowed their heads and surrendered, and called for a truce.

Wang Mang usurped the Han, the world was in chaos, and the feudal lords divided their regimes, but the destiny still favored the descendants of the Liu family.

Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu revived the Han Dynasty, and it has been handed down for another 170 years.

The eight states rose together, and the millions of yellow scarves that were issued internally and externally were also defeated in their hands.

The arrogant and domineering Dong Zhuo was also defeated by them.

Yuan Shao will also be their defeat!

Rebels will be punished, and the country will be upright!

The morale of the Han army outside Fanyang City has completely climbed to the peak because of Huangfusong's appearance in front of the battle.
