"Zhang Fei, how dare you go out of the city to fight. I didn't expect that Liu Bei's men are all a bunch of cowardly turtles. They only know how to show off in the city, hahaha." A yellow scarf general rode a thin war horse, holding a spear in his hand, and said majestically
He cursed, if compared with a general of the Xiliang Army, he would look much more shabby.
The soldiers under his command burst into bursts of laughter in unison.
On the city wall, Zhang Fei's face was ashen. He looked at the twisted Yellow Turban army outside the city and said angrily: "Order all the troops and horses, and wait for me, Lao Zhang, to go out and kill him without leaving a single piece of armor behind."
"General, don't do it. My lord repeatedly warned me before leaving. If we keep guard, our army will be smaller than the Yellow Turbans outside the city." Lieutenant General Zhang Han advised.
"Go away, what do you know? If you don't fight before the battle, you will not only make the enemy laugh, but also lose the spirit of our army." Zhang Fei pushed Zhang Han aside with dissatisfaction.
"Third general, be careful!" All the generals bowed down one after another.
Zhang Fei raised the whip in his hand and hit Zhang Han on the head. Zhang Han did not dodge, and with a "pop" sound, there was a bloody wound on his face.
"No fight, no fight." Zhang Fei yelled angrily, "Go back and drink!"
After Zhang Fei left, several generals came forward to comfort Zhang Han.
Zhang Han gave a wry smile and continued to arrange the city defense. How could he not know Zhang Fei's violence? If something didn't go his way, he would either beat or scold him, but his skills made the soldiers of the three armies have to obey, especially when he led the soldiers to kill the Yellow Turbans before.
The army of soldiers greatly shocked the morale of the defenders in the city. With the help of aristocratic families and common people, the military strength in the city reached approximately 6,500, but the elite strength was only more than 2,000. If the elite troops were lost, the Yuzhou Army would be
Having completely lost the capital to fight against the Yellow Turbans, they could only allow the Yellow Turbans to wreak havoc in the Chen Kingdom.
"Zhang Fei, you are a coward!" the Yellow Turban soldiers outside the city roared in unison, which could be faintly heard throughout Changping.
Zhang Fei stretched out his hand and smashed the wine jar into pieces. Unable to conceal the anger in his heart, he ordered two thousand infantrymen and opened the city gate.
"Death to the traitor!" Zhang Fei shouted, the sound was like thunder, and he took the lead in riding towards the battle formation of the Yellow Turban soldiers.
These yellow scarf soldiers were in charge of the scolding formation. They were not elite soldiers. Seeing Zhang Fei's ferocity, they were horrified and retreated one after another. Zhang Fei took the lead and was as powerful as thunder. The general who was scolding could not avoid it and was stabbed by Zhang Fei's spear.
He died, and the two thousand soldiers behind him took the opportunity to cover up and killed the Yellow Turban soldiers and returned with a great defeat.
After gathering his troops and cleaning the battlefield, Zhang Fei proudly led his army back to the city.
Zhang Han's face was not very good-looking. After all, Zhang Fei, the third general, was the main general in the city. He was just Zhang Fei's deputy. Just now, Zhang Fei was so angry that he resolutely sent soldiers to open the city gate and kill the Yellow Turbans. He didn't even think about it.
There was no way to stop him, but before the army left, Liu Bei repeatedly told him that he must help Zhang Fei defend Chen State.
"General!" Zhang Han stopped talking.
Zhang Fei laughed loudly and said: "General Zhang Han, how about it? Once I, Old Zhang, take action, those traitors will no longer dare to stay outside the city. These grandsons just need to be beaten. Let's go back and have a drink."
The generals happily followed Zhang Fei, leaving Zhang Han in charge of the safety of the city wall. There was an army of yellow turbans outside the city watching eagerly, and they did not dare to slack off at all. Only people like Zhang Fei who are good at drinking would be in such a situation.
He was still drinking, Zhang Han thought.
"Let's go, I'll treat everyone to a drink tonight!" Zhang Fei said with a big wave of his hand.
The victorious soldiers under his command shouted in unison.
"General, I didn't expect that Zhang Fei would really dare to lead his soldiers into the battle. God help me, I should do this." Yu Shan looked happy and whispered in his ear.
When Guo Da heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "Just follow Brother Yu's plan. When the city is destroyed, the beautiful women in the city will be allowed to be chosen by Brother Yu."
There were 40,000 Yellow Turban soldiers in the rear, and Zhang Fei dared to send people to attack them. It must be said that he was extremely brave. If he used it properly and captured them on the battlefield, it would definitely be a fatal blow to the morale of the defenders in the city.
Figures like Zhang Fei are the backbone of the army.
Yu Shan looked happy, and the whole plan quietly started to run.
At the same time, Guo Fei, the number one general under the Yellow Turbans, was also sent to the vicinity of Runan County to contain Guan Yu's 5,000 troops, and faced off against Guan Yu's 5,000 troops with 20,000 soldiers, gaining a huge advantage.
The next day, the Yellow Turban Army appeared outside the city again, still in a scolding formation. You could tell at a glance what they were like. They had coarse cloth clothes and no decent armor. There were even a few holes in the military flag.
It looks ridiculous from a distance.
Looking at the crooked Yellow Turban soldiers standing outside the city, the generals on the city burst into laughter. Can such a team be called an army?
Zhang Fei was very drunk last night. In his daze, he heard the scolding outside the city again. A carp stood up and started to speak, "Bring me my robe and snake spear!"
The guard waiting outside the door hurriedly obeyed.
After carefully looking at the yellow scarf outside the city for a moment, Zhang Fei's eyes filled with anger, "Here comes someone, gather your troops and horses, and come out of the city to fight!"
"General, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. The traitor commander Guo Dashu has a plan, but he is afraid of fraud!" Zhang Han looked worried.
Zhang Fei pointed his riding crop at Zhang Han and said, "Well, Zhang Han, you have repeatedly opposed my fight with the rebels. Could it be that you have some old relationship with the Yellow Turbans outside the city?"
Zhang Han's face was livid and he did not argue. If this charge was found to be true, he would not be able to defend himself.
"Come here, pull Zhang Han down and keep him under guard!" Zhang Fei was furious. This lieutenant who had been against him many times had long been despised.
There was a creaking sound, and the city gate opened wide again. Before Zhang Fei could rush to the front of the formation, the Yellow Turban soldiers dispersed in a rush.
Zhang Fei led his soldiers to charge for a while, and laughed proudly at the city gate and said: "Yellow Turban rebels, surrender as soon as possible. My elder brother is kind and will leave you intact!"
The two thousand soldiers behind him also laughed in agreement.
Not far away, Guo Da asked: "Brother Yu, what do you think?"
"General, please don't. I watched Zhang Fei's trip and did not relax his vigilance. Moreover, this man is brave and difficult to defeat. The yellow scarf soldiers in the city should not move for the time being. Let Zhang Fei's army be proud." Yu Shan said.
Guo Daye did what he said.
"General, General Zhang Han is also thinking about our army wholeheartedly. I hope the general will be more generous and let him go." Two generals who were good friends with Zhang Han came forward to persuade him.
Zhang Fei waved his hands and said: "After two major victories in a row, let this boy Zhang Han go and tell him not to talk nonsense in the army in the future. How can we lose our courage in front of the two armies? I, old Zhang, have been on the battlefield for many years. How can I
There will be mistakes.”
All the generals said yes one after another.
After Zhang Han was released, he became taciturn and a man who could be killed but not humiliated. Zhang Fei whipped himself in front of the army in public. If Liu Bei hadn't trusted him so much, he might have turned against him that day, and today he even slandered himself as a Yellow Turban bandit.
"General Zhang." The two generals bowed.
Zhang Han waved his hand and said: "No need to say anything, I'm fine. I told my brothers to watch the city wall at night and don't be lazy. I'll go back and take a rest."
The two generals leaned over and said yes. They admired Zhang Han very much. Although he was born as a commoner, he behaved calmly and calmly on the battlefield. In private, he loved the soldiers very much and was loved by them.
After Zhang Han returned to his residence, he fell asleep until he was pulled out of bed by two soldiers the next day.
It turned out that after Zhang Fei returned from the victory yesterday, he was drinking in the army again. During this period, he remembered Liu Bei's instructions and ordered his soldiers to assemble at the school field at midnight the next day.
When Zhang Han's soldiers came back, they saw that Zhang Han had gone to sleep, so they did not disturb him, but they forgot about it the next day.
Looking at Zhang Han who was tied up by Wu Hua Dao, Zhang Fei was furious. Zhang Han had blocked him time and time again, and now he blatantly ignored his orders, so how could he command the three armies?
"Zhang Han, do you know your guilt?" Zhang Fei shouted sharply.
Zhang Han struggled and said: "What is the crime of holding a humble position?"
"Hmph! Last night, the general made it clear to the army that today we are gathering at the school grounds at Chenshi, but you are sleeping at home. What crime should you do?"
"General, I did not receive the order!" Zhang Han's face turned red.
Zhang Fei ignored the struggling Zhang Han, punched him twice, and cursed: "Shu Zi, you have done everything you have done, and you still don't admit it."
"Come here, take Zhang Han out and behead him!"
Upon hearing this, all the generals tried to dissuade him one after another. Zhang Han was very popular among the soldiers in the army. If he were to kill him on the spot, it would definitely destabilize the morale of the army.
"General, it's unlucky to kill a general in front of the battle line. We don't want General Zhang Han to be punished and make meritorious service."
Zhang Fei said angrily: "General, do I still need you to teach me how to do things?"
Looking at the generals who were kneeling down, Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "You can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the living penalty. Pull him down and give him a fifty-strong stick!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they could save their lives. At the same time, the fear of Zhang Fei in their hearts also increased a lot. Even Zhang Han, who was the deputy general, didn't show any mercy, let alone them.
Poor Zhang Han, under Zhang Fei's personal supervision, every soldier's stick was used with all his strength. Zhang Han could be considered a man, but he managed to hold on without making a sound.
What happened in the city was not hidden from Guo Da outside the city. The Yellow Turban soldiers were civilians and there were many eyes and ears in the city.
After Yu Shan heard the news reported by the soldiers, he laughed and said: "General, God is really helping me!"
"Brother Yu, what do you mean by this?" Guo Da asked.
Yu Shan motioned to Guo Dafu to come over and told him everything in his mind.
In the past few days, the Yellow Turban Army outside the city has become more and more arrogant. Although they returned in defeat every time, they repeatedly scolded the formation. No matter how many soldiers Zhang Fei led to charge into the formation, they would always retreat. Zhang Fei was full of confidence in defending the city.
Under the cover of night, a figure rushed into Zhang Han's home.
Two soldiers outside Zhang Han's gate heard the movement and shouted: "Who is it?"
The black shadow said: "Tell your general, it's an old friend here!"
Zhang Han, who was woken up by the soldiers, was slightly surprised. He was from Qingzhou, how could an old friend come to see him in the middle of the night?
"Let him in!" Zhang Han, who originally wanted to turn over, pulled at the wound on his back and grinned in pain.
"Who are you?" With the support of the soldier, Zhang Han raised his head slightly and asked.
