"General, there is a team of yellow scarf troops ahead" "Then deal with them"
Gao Hu said coldly.
In Yingchuan County, the official army and the Yellow Turban Army have gathered tens of millions of people to confront each other, and fierce battles are taking place every day.
The two cities of Yangzhai and Changshe were connected together, and the Yellow Turbans also launched a terrifying attack on these two cities.
Countless soldiers died every day.
After quickly dealing with a group of Yellow Turbans, Gao Hu led the men back to the original military camp in the valley.
"came back"
Su Fan saw Gao Hu nodded.
"Sir, there are more and more Yellow Turban soldiers in the area connecting Yangzhai and Changshe."
"More and more Yellow Turban troops are coming out of the Yellow Turban camp"
"Zhicai, what do you think?"
"Lord, I'm afraid the Yellow Turban camp doesn't have enough food and grass, so that's why it's like this."
"Isn't this our opportunity? Your lord can send a letter to Yangzhai or Changshe, telling us that we will sneak attack on the Yellow Turbans' raiding team outside. In this way, your army can also take independent actions.
ability"
Xi Zhicai smiled.
This time, Su Fan did not lead many troops, only fifteen thousand. He had an army of seventy thousand, and after half a year of fighting, he was no longer weak against some frontier troops.
Of course he wouldn't bring all of this with him, that would definitely make him stand out.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
He came to Yingchuan just to get part of the credit. In Xuzhou, he killed Peng Fei and suppressed the million-strong Yellow Turban army.
This merit is enough for him to become a senior official in Qianshi, but if he wants to become the prefect of a county, it is best to win over the commander-in-chief of one county, so that the prefect will be more confident.
On the Yingchuan side, there are many handsome people from the Yellow Turban Daqu, including not only Bo Cai and Peng Tuo, but also He Yi, Huang Shao and He Man.
As long as he captures these people, his credit is enough.
What's more, he also has a trump card, which is Guan Hai who has already gone to Qingzhou.
Guan Hai was the Yellow Turban Qushuai, but he was not from Taiping Dao. His status in Taiping Dao was not high and he was not considered a die-hard member of Taiping Dao.
He was confident to persuade Guan Hai to surrender. Guan Hai had millions of Yellow Turban soldiers and civilians under his command. If Guan Hai surrendered, less than half of Qingzhou's Yellow Turbans would be liberated.
So when he came to Yingchuan, he didn't want to make any more limelight. It was not too difficult for him to kill a Qu commander because he had already invited Xu Chu.
Xu Chu is a powerful general at the sixth level of Lian Gang, and his strength is still higher than that of Su Fan. It is even easier to kill enemy generals on the battlefield.
Therefore, fifteen thousand troops and horses are enough.
“This is a good note”
Xi Zhicai's suggestion made Su Fan nod. He had been in Yingchuan for more than a month, but he did not come to support Yingchuan like other powerful people and entered the city, even though it was safer to enter the city.
But the autonomy rights are almost lost.
After entering the city, you will inevitably be controlled by Zhu Jun or Huangfu Song. You can't resist whatever he asks you to do.
If you were asked to serve as cannon fodder, would you do it or not?
Of course Su Fan didn't want to.
Some time ago, he had seen that Sun Jian brought his troops and horses to settle in Yangzhai City. He brought 30,000 troops, most of which were recruits and were not elite.
But those were his troops, and after a few battles, he had less than 10,000 left.
Su Fan did not want to be like Sun Jian. Although the general was kind and did not control the army, his subordinates had gone through several years of training and did not want to be ruined like this.
In Yangzhai City, in the Chinese army's camp, Su Fan's letter had already arrived on Zhu Jun's desk.
After looking at the contents of Su Fan's letter, he handed these to the surrounding 'subordinates' to read.
"General Zhonglang, this Gao Ning'an's plan is good. The Yellow Turban camp outside the city has indeed been sending teams after teams out to plunder food these days."
"If we really let them get more food and grass, they can keep consuming it with us."
"Although there is still enough food and grass in the city now, it will eventually run out, and with the arrival of support from various places, the city may be overwhelmed."
"The imperial court is already dissatisfied with the general. It is not easy to get the imperial court to allocate more food."
The person who spoke was Zhu Jun's lieutenant.
"Do you agree with his proposal?" Zhu Jun looked serious. He was still under a lot of pressure these days.
Here in Yingchuan, he was suppressed by Bo Cai and even the army did not dare to leave the city. Over there in Luoyang, it is said that there was already a strong opinion against him.
In Jizhou Lu Zigan, because Zhang Jiao disappeared, he was very prosperous. Julu and Guangzong's tens of millions of Yellow Turban troops were suppressed by him. It is estimated that it will not take long. The Yellow Turbans will eventually collapse due to lack of food. Already.
Among the three armies, Huangfu Yizhen also swept away the Yellow Turbans in Sili, and now also came to Yuzhou County. It can be said that he performed the worst.
Naturally, he was anxious. What he wanted in his mind was to gather all the troops, then fight Bocai in a decisive battle, and capture Bocai in one fell swoop.
Therefore, he did not like Gao Ning'an's strategy, but he was not under his jurisdiction in the first place, and he came only to respond to the imperial court's call.
"What do you think?"
Zhu Jun looked at Sun Jian. The one he valued most here was Sun Jian. This son was ferocious and his personal force was quite powerful. Moreover, he had four generals who were all martial arts practitioners.
These days, no matter how ferocious the Yellow Turbans attacked the city, they were eventually driven off under his brave leadership.
"General, I also think that the other party's method can be tried. If there are cavalry, I'm afraid the effect will be better."
Sun Jian himself has a military heritage, and his military strategies are not bad. He quickly thought of the benefits of this.
"The cavalry comes and goes without a trace and is extremely fast. Even if the Yellow Turban camp reacts, it will be difficult to pose much of a threat to the cavalry."
"You all think so too"
Zhu Jun's expression remained unchanged and he turned to look at the others. These 'subordinates' all nodded. They were definitely aware that this was a good method and they could try it.
Anyway, they don't have a good way to deal with Bocai's army outside the city now, so they might as well give it a try.
They all guessed that their coach wanted a decisive battle, but it was really not a good decision.
First of all, their officers and soldiers are also very tired from these days of battles. Although they are defending the city, they have more people than the Yellow Turbans and can attack the city in rotation.
Secondly, morale is not high.
It's not like they didn't go out of the city for a decisive battle with Bocai's army, but the effect was not very good. Even though their battle loss ratio was very high, one officer and army could even replace ten Yellow Turban soldiers, but so what.
The Yellow Turban Army is like grass in the wilderness, which grows again when the spring breeze blows.
There is simply no way to kill them all. Now in the Yellow Turban camp outside the city, the number of Yellow Turban troops has increased again.
So they don't want to fight unless General Huangfu can't support them, but according to the news from there, when he takes down a yellow scarf over there, they will come over.
