Lu Xin camped thirty miles away from Pingyuan County.
"Xiao Shuai, do you think the enemy will come to steal the camp at night?"
All the little leaders gathered in Lu Xin's camp.
"He will come tonight."
Lu Xin nodded. If it were him, he would not give the Yellow Turbans any room to breathe.
"What should we do?"
Hearing Lu Xin's affirmative answer, the Yellow Turbans were dumbfounded.
"Listen to me, go and rest immediately, and leave an empty camp for them."
"Xiao Shuai means we have a counter-ambush?"
After hearing Lu Xin's words, the leaders instantly woke up.
"no."
Lu Xin smiled at the corners of his eyes and shook his head.
"What does the handsome guy want to do?"
Everyone was puzzled. It was easy to talk about ambush and counter-ambush, but what did Lu Xin want to do?
"Leave an empty camp for them at night, and then we take advantage of the opportunity to capture Pingyuan County. Otherwise, why do you think I would set up the camp here?"
Lu Xin punched the table.
"Young handsome young man, I just said there is a reason for traveling to the camp so far away."
"After thirty miles of running all the way here and back, the day lilies are already cold. We will go to Pingyuan County tonight."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Everyone was excited when they heard Lu Xin's true intention. Lu Xin was simply amazing. Not only did he predict that the militia would come to steal the camp, he also figured out how to steal the city.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Qi led 10,000 troops and prepared to leave the city, but was stopped by the county captain.
"Military Academy, have you ever thought about how the Yellow Turban would react if it foresaw that you were going to ambush? Thirty miles back and forth means sixty miles, which is too far."
Looking at the county lieutenant in front of him, Yuan Qi was also stunned. He only thought that the enemy was tired and would be prone to sneak attacks. He really didn't think about the idea of the Yellow Turban.
"What Zhongcai said is correct, but I was negligent."
Just because Yuan Qi didn't think clearly, it doesn't mean he is stupid. After being awakened by others, he began to think about countermeasures.
"My lord is wise."
After the county captain finished speaking, he quietly stepped aside.
"Zhongcai, I will give you two thousand soldiers and horses and one thousand county soldiers. Is there any problem in defending the city wall?"
Yuan Qi looked at the county captain Zhou Qin and Zhou Zhongcai, with a glint of wisdom flashing in his eyes.
"I?"
Zhou Qin was stunned. He never thought that Yuan Qi would entrust him with such an important matter as defending the city.
"That's right, it's you."
Yuan Qi nodded.
"Sir, as long as I, Zhou Qin, am on the city wall, the Yellow Turbans will never even be able to climb the city wall."
"Okay, if you can break the Yellow Turban this time, I will definitely take credit for you."
After Yuan Qi finished speaking, he smiled and rushed out of Pingyuan County with more than 7,000 soldiers and horses towards Lu Xin's place.
As soon as Yuan Qi left, he saw a fast horse running out and heading into the distance. This was the spy reserved by Lu Xin. His mission was to explore the dynamics of Pingyuan County.
Those with two legs could not run as well as those with four legs. Soon Lu Xin got the news that Yuan Qi's large army was leaving the city.
"Okay, the enemy has taken the bait. It is reported that I will order the entire army to leave the camp, bypass the army and head towards Pingyuan County."
"promise."
Yuan Qi led his troops and horses and ran for about ten miles before he realized something was wrong.
If the enemy really wanted to capture the city, he would usually choose a camp within five miles, or no more than ten miles at most. However, Lu Xin chose to camp thirty miles away. This was a big deal.
Even a quick march for thirty miles would take at least an hour, and one round trip would take two hours.
Two hours was enough to do a lot of things, and it was definitely more than enough to capture Pingyuan County without any soldiers or generals. Fortunately, I didn't act recklessly.
"Bai Ping, take the scouts to investigate the enemy camp, and the rest of the troops will rest on the spot."
Now that he was aware of the problem, Yuan Qi decided to remain unchanged in response to all changes and sent scouts to explore the camp.
Yuan Qi stopped moving, but Lu Xin did not stop at all, and quickly rushed towards Pingyuan County with more than 5,000 remaining soldiers.
The long wait paid off. Bai Ping led his scouts into the Yellow Turban camp. When he saw the empty camp, he knew he had been fooled.
"The military academy, as you expected, is an empty camp. The Yellow Turban is an empty camp."
Bai Ping returned to Yuan Qi and reported the military situation to him.
"You yellow turban thief, you are really cunning."
When Yuan Qi heard Bai Ping's report, he smiled slightly and secretly said it was okay.
"Bai Ping, go to Pingyuan County as quickly as possible. As soon as the Yellow Turbans attack the city, you will come to retaliate against me."
"promise."
Now that Lu Xin's plan has been confirmed, Yuan Qi has also thought of corresponding countermeasures. Since you want to attack the city, I will take the opportunity to capture you while you are attacking the city.
Lu Xin's five thousand soldiers and horses moved very quickly and arrived at the base of Pingyuan County in one and a half hours.
"Siege the city."
Without any hesitation, today is the only chance to capture Pingyuan County.
"Kill."
"Go ahead."
"Take Pingyuan County and rob them."
After a short rest, the Yellow Turban Army regained some strength. With Lu Xin's promise, they all rushed towards the city wall with red eyes.
"Fire the arrow."
Zhou Qindao can be regarded as a person. After siege during the day, he has broadened his horizons.
Spike arrows fell from the sky and shot towards the place with the torch.
"Xiao Shuai, I didn't expect that Yuan Qi, who is not a fool, would actually have some tricks up his sleeve."
Seeing the yellow scarves being shot over one by one, the principal couldn't help but spit.
"Don't talk so much. Yuan Shu's men don't have any idiots. Being able to haul out so many soldiers and horses this time is already a profit. Hurry up and attack the city. I want to have a drink in Pingyuan County in two hours, at most two hours."
Lu Xin was not surprised. It would be strange if Pingyuan County really had no defense at all.
The flying shuttles seemed to have eyes and entangled themselves directly on the battlements. The yellow scarves below started to climb toward the top of the city with their steel knives in their teeth.
"Axe Team, enter."
One by one, strong men rushed up to the city wall and chopped down the yellow turban's flying shuttle with their big axes.
"Leimu."
"Rolling Stone"
"Bow and arrow suppression."
The battle reached a climax from the very beginning, and lives were easily snuffed out like flowers.
"The Yellow Turbans have begun to attack the city."
Bai Ping returned to Yuan Qi as early as the Yellow Turban siege.
"Listen to my general's orders, march quickly, and charge. I will tear off the heads of those bastards."
"promise."
The distance of ten miles was nothing at all, and it took less than half an hour to reach the edge of the county town.
"Xiao Shuai, the enemy is found in the rear."
When the siege was in full swing, the scouts from the rear team rushed to Lu Xin's side.
"What? It came so fast."
Upon hearing the scout's words, Lu Xin frowned, and then a light suddenly lit up.
"No, I've been fooled. There are really no mediocre people under Yuan Shu's command. They must be ambushing outside. They are just waiting for us to attack the city and then take advantage of the situation to attack. Retreat quickly, retreat quickly."
Although Lu Xin woke up in time, the quality of the Yellow Turban Army was not there. With a strong city in front and an ambush behind, the more than 4,000 Yellow Turbans collapsed immediately.
No matter how Lu Xin shouted, they did not listen at all, running around like headless wasps, and finally chose to surrender due to Yuan Qi's superior strength.
Among the thousands of Yellow Turbans, only Lu Xin and a hundred of his soldiers were left standing still holding swords.
