Chapter 197, Liu Bei's Perseverance

Yang Feng's expression changed greatly and she said: "Dong Zhuo is in Shangdang County now. After Hukou Pass, it is Wei County. Of course he will appear in Wei County!"

Zhang Yan said with an ugly face: "In other words, Lei Gong is trying to trick us!"

Of course he knew that Dong Zhuo had 60,000 troops in Shangdang County, but he didn't care. After all, in Zhang Yan's memory, Dong Zhuo was beaten by Lei Gong and fled to Shangdang. He should be on guard in Shangdang.

Lei Gong should not appear in Wei County!

Yang Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Commander, we all thought wrong. You have forgotten that not long ago, the Xianbei people attacked the territory of Tengjia Army and killed 20,000 of Lei Gong's troops. Now Lei Gong has taken his main force to Mayi.

, planning to seek revenge from the Xianbei people.

Even if Dong Zhuo comes to Wei County with his army, he doesn't have to worry about the Lei Guild conquering Shangdang, and Shangdang is too close to Wei County. If they defeat us, they will have time to return to Shangdang. Dong Zhuo has a time lag with us!"

"We have all been deceived by Liu Bei. He has already arranged a back-up plan, waiting for us to fall into his trap!"

Yang Feng immediately said: "Commander, quickly take in the soldiers. In our current state, we will be defeated by the Xiliang Army! We may even be completely defeated!"

Zhang Yan looked at the battlefield for dozens of miles and knew that it was impossible to retreat under the current situation. He said in despair: "It's useless. We don't even have a reserve army to resist Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army has another

He is the most elite soldier of the Han Dynasty, and I lost this war again!"

After saying this, Zhang Yan, who was already desperate, picked up the sword and was about to commit suicide! He really couldn't bear the feeling of seeing victory in sight, only to fail again!

But Yang Feng on the side immediately knocked the sword out of his hand and said angrily: "You want to kill all of us, you are now the commander-in-chief of the Yellow Turban Army! If you die, it will be all over, but the hundreds of thousands of the Yellow Turban Army

What to do with the army! Their morale collapsed and they could only be massacred by the Han army. Do you want to drag our 300,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to be buried with you?"

Then Yang Feng said to the messengers around him: "Order everyone to end the battle with Liu Bei, close the battle line, and slowly approach the central square formation!"

Then Yang Feng said to Zhang Yan: "I will take my personal guards to resist the Xiliang army and try to delay it for half an hour. You can find a way to make good use of this half hour and try your best to keep everyone alive!"

But Zhang Yan grabbed Yang Feng and said: "I am the one who should go. Our Yellow Turban Army has been defeated repeatedly in these years. In the past, I only thought that the Han Army was powerful, but today I understand that it was me, the commander-in-chief, who did this."

If you are not good enough, you will bring everyone into a desperate situation. After you lead everyone out of the siege, you can seek refuge with Thunder Lord in Mayi. He is the one who can really achieve great things!"

After saying this, Zhang Yan shouted: "Guard Battalion, come to fight with me!"

"No!" 5,000 Guards Battalion soldiers followed Zhang Yan and ran towards Dong Zhuo!

"There are still capable people in the imperial court. Does Wen You know who made this battle plan?" Dong Zhuo sighed as he looked at the panicked Yellow Turban Army after the Xiliang cavalry appeared.

Yes, Dong Zhuo did not come to Wei County on his own initiative this time, but the imperial court ordered him to lead 30,000 cavalry to Wei County to support Liu Bei! And Dong Zhuo had been waiting for the opportunity to attack in Hukou Pass. When he knew that the Yellow Turban Army was exhausted,

Just came to Wei County to give the Yellow Turban Army a fatal blow!

This is why Liu Bei has been consuming Zhang Yan with all his strength. He wants to create opportunities for Dong Zhuo to complete this fatal blow!

Li Ru on the side thought for a while and said: "Now the only people in the court who know military knowledge can make such a perfect battle plan. The only two people in the imperial court are Shangshu Ling Lu Zhi and the great craftsman Zhu Jun. The other ministers can scheming and scheming, but they don't understand military matters at all. ! If Lei Gong’s transfer was also caused by them, then they are really terrible, this is simply an exhaustive plan!"

Even Li Ru admired the person who made this plan. He also deduced the situation of the imperial court in Shangdang County. But no matter how he deduced, the Han Dynasty imperial court would inevitably end up being destroyed by the Yellow Turban Army, and the world would enter a situation where all the heroes would compete for hegemony. , but he did not expect that the situation that he thought could not be changed was actually reversed. As long as Zhang Yan entrenched in Jizhou was wiped out, the court's chess game would be alive!

Dong Zhuo sighed: "There are still capable people in the imperial court. I thought it would be difficult for the imperial court to survive this disaster, so I wanted to hide in Xiliang to observe the situation.

But he didn't expect that Zhang Yan would be put down by the imperial court in this way. In addition, the refugees from the Central Plains were all driven to Bingzhou to hinder the development of Lei Gong. The only major rebel left in the entire Han Dynasty was Lei Gong.

After a few years, when the imperial court accumulates strength, and then uses hundreds of thousands of troops from Youzhou, Jizhou, and Bingzhou to surround Lei Gong, peace will be restored to the Han Dynasty!

If Lu Zhi could achieve this ability of turning one's hands into clouds and rain, then I would really admire Lu Zhi! This way, the imperial court can continue, and I don't have to go back to the remote Xiliang!"

Then Dong Zhuo laughed loudly and said: "Let the vanguard Niu Fu speed up, and let me see how powerful his armored cavalry is!"

Niu Fu laughed when he heard Dong Zhuo's order: "Blow the horn of attack! Today is the time for our armored cavalry to become famous all over the world!"

"Woo, woo, woo!" Horns sounded, resounding throughout the battlefield, and war horses roared

Niu Fu's 1,000 armored cavalry used 30,000 cavalry arrows as arrow shafts, and the iron cavalry charged the Yellow Turban Army in a cone-shaped offensive square formation!

Zhang Yan has led his personal guards to block the Xiliang cavalry's attack route!

Just facing the dense Xiliang cavalry, even Zhang Yan's personal guards were trembling!

Zhang Yan roared angrily: "Even if the Xiliang cavalry steps over us this year, we will stop them for half an hour. Everyone thinks about their relatives and brothers. We don't want them to die here in battle. We will stop them for half an hour." Fight to the death here!"

The soldiers also shouted: "Fight to the death, fight to the death, fight to the death!"

This not only boosted their morale, but also strengthened everyone's belief. After everyone shouted three times, the fear in their hearts finally began to weaken!

Niu Fu also discovered Zhang Yan's army blocking their way forward.

He sneered: "It's like a mantis trying to trick a chariot!"

Niu Fu waved his sword and shouted: "Kill these Yellow Turbans without leaving any chickens or dogs behind, kill them!"

"Kill!" The soldiers behind Niu Fu also roared.

His furniture cavalry was like a flood breaking through a dam, charging into Zhang Yan's military formation with an indomitable momentum!

Zhang Yan shouted: "Everyone, block it. As long as you block this charge, they will have no power!"

But when the Xiliang army got closer, Zhang Yan discovered that these cavalry were all covered with a layer of ceramic armor. The surging cavalry were as huge as monsters and frightened everyone!

Zhang Yan was even sweating coldly. He knew that this was the heavy cavalry of the Tengjia Army, but it was in the hands of Dong Zhuo!

"Could it be Thunder Lord who wants to kill me? He is borrowing a knife to kill someone!" Zhang Yan regretted letting Yang Feng and others take refuge with Thunder Lord.

He originally thought that Lei Gong was a hero, but the scene in front of him made him realize that Lei Gong might be a tyrant. He did all these things to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from conquering Jizhou! So he will unite with the court to kill the Yellow Turban Army!

But the situation on the battlefield didn't give Zhang Yan much time to think. The Xiliang army was like a giant wave, hitting Zhang Yan's personal guards.

"Kill!" Zhang Yan and the others tried their best to resist, but their resistance was like facing a mound of flood. The army formation was first overwhelmed by armored cavalry. The subsequent cavalry continued to expand the gap, and soon Zhang Yan's 5,000 men

The guards were overwhelmed by 30,000 cavalry, and Zhang Yan himself was trampled to death by armored cavalry!

Before he died, he couldn't figure out why Lei Gong wanted to deal with their Yellow Turban Army!

If Xu Wei knew that Zhang Yan would suspect him of joining forces with Dong Zhuo to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, he would definitely cry to death. He strengthened Dong Zhuo's power and clearly wanted to use Dong Zhuo to deal with Yuan Shao and the others. He would never have thought that Dong Zhuo would turn around and go to Jizhou to deal with them.

Zhang Yan!

After completely wiping out Zhang Yan's personal guards, the Xiliang army rushed into the Yellow Turban Army's battle line. They were exhausted from fighting Liu Bei's army. Now they faced the attack of Dong Zhuo's army. Many of them had no strength to resist the Xiliang cavalry.

attack.

Wherever Niu Fu's armored cavalry went, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were instantly bloody and bloody. The army had no power to fight back and could only die miserably under the trampling of Niu Fu's iron hoofs, with broken limbs and arms and blood flying all over the sky. Gu Hao

As the cavalry army continued to advance, the Yellow Turban Army collapsed one by one. Finally, the army could no longer bear the fear, and each one began to flee away from the armored cavalry!

"Our reinforcements are coming. The Yellow Turban Army is going to be defeated. Let's kill everyone!" Liu Bei and the others saw Dong Zhuo and his new force, and the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted!

In this confrontation, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were killed and retreated steadily, and soon the whole army collapsed!

Seeing that the situation around him was inevitable, Yang Feng could only look at the Zhangshui River and escape under the leadership of his confidants! Only by crossing the Zhangshui River could they have the possibility of survival.

Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang He and other fierce generals led their troops into the Yellow Turban Army formation. Under their leadership, the Han army was invincible. The Yellow Turban Army soldiers were divided and surrounded by them, and were annihilated in batches. Many Yellow Turban Army soldiers were

After losing sight of hope, drop your sword and surrender!

At this time Liu Bei also ordered: "Don't do too much killing, recruit these Yellow Turbans soldiers to surrender!"

Soon the whole battlefield was filled with Han soldiers shouting: "Those who surrender will avoid death! Those who surrender will avoid death! Those who surrender will avoid death!"

Yellow Turban soldiers who did not want to continue fighting surrendered in droves when they heard this voice!

But soon Liu Bei discovered that no one listened to his orders. Dong Zhuo really continued to hunt down the deserters of the Yellow Turban Army, and the local officers in Jizhou were also massacring the surrendered Yellow Turban Army soldiers in batches! It was just Liu Bei himself

The commander-in-chief's men were just following his orders to take in the prisoners of war!

Liu Bei was furious when he discovered this scene. He rushed out with his personal guards and ran to Shen Pei and said angrily: "Shen Pei, you didn't hear my order. I didn't ask you to take in the surrendered Yellow Turban soldiers. Why did you

And the prisoners will be massacred!”

However, Shen Pei's expression remained unchanged and said: "These are all traitors, how can they not be killed! How many hairpins have been killed in Jizhou in their hands, and now that they have been defeated, it is time to pay for it with their lives!"

Liu Bei said forcefully: "But they have surrendered! If they are prisoners, we must ensure their safety! Not to mention that they are originally the subjects of the Han Dynasty!"

At this time, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun also discovered the situation here. They ran over with their troops and stood behind Liu Bei!

Zhang Fei shouted: "My eldest brother is the commander-in-chief of Jizhou's army. You, as subordinates, do not obey my eldest brother's orders. Do you want to die?"

After saying this, Zhang Fei drew out his long sword and pointed it at Shen Ping!

Zhang He and Gao Lan, who were beside Shen Pei, were worried that Shen Pei would be injured, so they drew their swords and stood in front of Shen Pei!

Zhang Fei saw them drawing their swords and said angrily: "Point your swords at your commander. It seems that you really want to rebel!"

After saying that, Zhang Fei rushed up to teach Zhang He and Gao Lan a lesson. Not to be outdone, he waved his sword and looked at Zhang Fei, but the two of them were not as strong as Zhang Fei in terms of strength or martial arts. In addition, Zhang Fei was Liu Bei's third brother, and the two of them were even less powerful.

Dare to use all your strength, and soon the two of them were kicked to the ground by Zhang Fei!

Then Zhang Fei shouted: "If you dare to draw your sword against my brother again, I will kill you!"

Then Zhang Fei looked at the judge with a stern face and said, "Do you listen to what my elder brother says?"

Shen Pei said categorically: "General Liu, you are decisive and honest in your work. We all in Jizhou admire you. Since you came to Jizhou, we have also supported you very much. You have to feed an army of 100,000 people. We will help you with Jizhou."

Not only did it feed an army of 100,000 people, it also supported the battlefields of Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yanzhou. You said you wanted to resettle the refugees, but we in Jizhou helped you get 5 million shi of food and relocate millions of victims."

"But these people we are killing now are not victims of the disaster, let alone the common people of the Han Dynasty, but rebels. They have drank the blood of the gentry and eaten the flesh of the gentry. They can no longer become the people of our Han Dynasty. For such rebellious people,

We only need to kill them all, otherwise the refugees all over the world will follow the same example. How can the world be peaceful? Only by completely killing these Yellow Turban Army can we set an example for the refugees all over the world and let them know the consequences of rebellion. In this way

The world will gradually settle down!

Zhang Fei and the others were stunned when they heard this and said: "There are more than 100,000 prisoners here, and you seem to have killed them all! This judge is a famous scholar in your Jizhou. I didn't expect to be so cruel. Dong Zhuo, who is known as the butcher, is probably not so cruel!"

Zhao Yun was also very embarrassed. Because he was a fellow villager, he was usually very close to Shen Pei, and even often asked him for knowledge! But he couldn't accept the change of Shen Pei!

But to Shen Pei, this is nothing. There is nothing wrong with him being a celebrity, but celebrities in this era no longer regard the common people as human beings. As long as there is a possibility of rebellion, they don't mind killing all the people first. They think this

This is the root of the problem. If the people are gone, there will naturally be no one to rebel.

Therefore, Huangfu Song massacred 100,000 Yellow Turban Army prisoners as imperial guards, but no one in the world criticized him, and even praised him as the pillar of national protection. Dong Zhuo massacred several powerful nobles, and became a man who everyone in the world wanted to get rid of.

Later, Cao Cao killed the famous scholar Bian Rang, and the entire Yanzhou rebelled against Cao Cao, almost causing Cao Cao to lose his hometown. In the eyes of the wealthy gentry of this era, they are the only real people, and the common people are just like the people on the roadside.

Like a weed!

But Liu Bei said firmly: "I have only heard of people being forced to rebel by the government, and I have never seen people who like to rebel. If you really want stability in Jizhou, you should find ways to reduce taxes and annex less land. This will cure the root cause."

The method! You only know how to kill the common people of the Han Dynasty. This is the style of you Jizhou celebrities!"

This Shenpei has a great reputation in Jizhou. Liu Bei's affairs in Jizhou in recent years are also thanks to Shenpei's mediation. However, he did not expect that a famous person like Shenpei would not even want to be famous today. He only wanted to massacre these Yellow Turbans.

The prisoner! Liu Bei discovered for the first time that it is reasonable to know the person but not the heart. Who would have thought that Shen Pei would actually turn into a butcher!

Shen Pei looked at Liu Bei but said sadly: "General Liu, I know you are a man of kindness, but now is not the time to be kind to women. Why has the world become turbulent since Zhang Jiao's rebellion? It is because of Zhang Jiao and the others.

The chaos in the world made them no longer keep their peace. These refugees and chaos had the idea of ​​getting something for nothing. At the same time, they discovered that this was feasible, and the chaos in the world began to rise one after another.

To deal with such rebellion, we should find and kill each one, so that the refugees in the world will not imitate them. When all the greedy and rebellious people are killed by us, the people will no longer be in turmoil, and the world will be peaceful. If you have mistresses in mind now

If human kindness allows them to survive, they will only lead more people to rebel, and the world will not be stable!"

Then the judge looked at Liu Bei and said: "General Liu doesn't want to tarnish his reputation, so leave this matter to me. I promise not to implicate General Liu!"

Liu Bei suppressed his anger and said: "I don't need you to bear any stigma for me, and I don't allow you to continue killing prisoners. The world is so turbulent. It may be your responsibility, my responsibility, or even everyone's responsibility.

But I know very well that they are not responsible, and as long as there is a way for them to survive, they will not rebel!"

Zhang Fei was surprised when he heard the theory of trial matching: "As expected of a famous person, he can tell so many great truths about killing people. Although I, Lao Zhang, have not read many books, I also know that killing people is wrong, especially killing people like this."

There are hundreds of thousands of people, and he is not afraid of being punished by God!"

Zhang Fei's voice was already so loud that Zhang He and the others looked ashamed!

But Shen Pei said as if he hadn't heard anything: "General, do you think I want to kill someone? I, Shen Pei, have a small reputation in Jizhou. Why would I kill someone to tarnish my reputation? But General, look at what else is there in Jizhou now."

The law is gone? The law is gone, and the whole Jizhou is in chaos. I kill the rebels to maintain the law in Jizhou, and let everything return to its original state. Only then will Jizhou be stable and not be like now, with dozens of deaths every year.

Millions of people, this is the true heart of benevolence and righteousness."

"Well said, these words speak to my heart. There is no one in the world who is more benevolent and righteous than me. If I hadn't been in the land of Xiliang, fighting in the south and north, killing without calculation, the west

Liang has been in chaos for a long time, and they will wait until the Yellow Turban Uprising before they rebel!"

"It turned out that the ignorant censors in the imperial court often caused trouble for me. They also said that I was a butcher, but they didn't know that I killed people to save the country and the people. If it weren't for their obstruction, I killed fewer people. What happened to Xiliang?

Maybe it hasn't been settled yet!" Dong Zhuo came here with a group of people.

He heard what Shen Pei and Liu Bei said, and he deeply believed in Shen Pei's words. He felt that these words were tailor-made for him!

Sure enough, people from the gentry speak well. I have suffered a lot in my life because I did not read many books and did so many things for the country and the people, but I was not shown off in a positive way. Instead, my reputation as a butcher spread throughout the Han Dynasty.

As for his immediate boss, Zhang Huan, he thought he had such a bad reputation and severed ties with him.

It is difficult to change in this life, so he said to Li Ru: "Learn a little, you are also a famous person, why do people speak so nice, you know how to do some crooked ways, I have been teaching you for many years, you must follow the right path

, take the right path, you really don’t live up to expectations at all! If you had been more lively, I wouldn’t have the reputation I have now!”

Li Ru suppressed a smile and said: "General, your subordinates must study hard!"

Li Ru finally understood the idea of ​​Shen Pei. Nowadays, the powerful gentry and the common people in Jizhou are incompatible with each other. Only if one of the two sides completely retreats and surrenders can the order of Jizhou be stabilized, and such retreat is naturally impossible.

Since they are members of the powerful gentry, Shen Pei naturally wants to represent the powerful gentry to intimidate the people of Jizhou, and these hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans are the targets of Shen Pei's killing to establish his authority. As long as he kills these hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans, the people of Jizhou can see

The fate of those who dare to resist the rule of Jizhou's clan. Under such high-pressure suppression, the people naturally dare not resist the rule of the clan!

Liu Bei said: "Leave these prisoners to me, I will take them to farm, and I will not let them affect Jizhou again!"

Shen Pei Leng said with this face: "General, don't forget that you are eating our Jizhou's food and wearing our Jizhou's clothes. Without our support, how can you farm the fields? Moreover, the Yellow Turban Army has more than hundreds of thousands of prisoners now.

, there are millions of thieves following them, the general has the ability to place these millions of thieves, and the court has the financial resources to support the general to farm? There is still wasteland in Jizhou to farm! The kindness of women cannot solve any problems, only to kill them all.

It’s the best way to solve the problem!”

Liu Bei said angrily: "I eat the food of a big man and wear the clothes of a big man, and these grains and clothes are all handed over to the court by the common people. The court has a sense to ensure that they can survive. If you continue to kill,

I will kill you first and disarm you all."

At this time, Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "We are all our own people, so why say such hurtful words? I have a way to solve your problem. You can hand over the captured Yellow Turban Army to me, and I, the old Dong, will let them go to Shangdang to farm."

!The Shangdang has a lot of wasteland!"

But neither Liu Bei nor Shen Pei believed Dong Zhuo's words!

Dong Zhuo really didn't have the idea of ​​​​garrisoning. He thought of selling these Yellow Turban Army soldiers to Xu Wei, at least they could replace them with thousands of armored cavalry. After this battle, Dong Zhuo found that the power of the armored cavalry was too great.

It's so big that it's a killer weapon on the battlefield, but the number is just too small!
