The departure of more than a thousand people had no impact on Liu Bei's large army, which continued to advance at its original speed.
The entire Qi County, and even Qingzhou, has not had a large-scale formal resolution in several years, let alone with so many troops.
For these poor yellow scarf thieves who are in an anarchic state, it would be a shame for themselves not to take action.
It's just that an army of tens of thousands of people is not a piece of cake after all. These Yellow Turban thieves are used to dealing with official troops, and they know that it will take several times the strength to deal with a regular army of ten thousand people with their own combat power.
So along the way, these yellow scarf thieves sent out at least 30,000 to 50,000 people, and at most several groups worked together to collect 100,000 to 80,000 yuan to rob.
The entire Qingzhou is basically a bandit den. When marching here, Wang Xuan naturally does not dare to be careless. He will spread out for ten miles with a single inspection, and it is ten miles in radius from front to back, even behind him. Naturally, the Yellow Turbans ambushed on the road.
The thief is discovered early every time.
Ten thousand people, boundless, not to mention the undisciplined Yellow Turban thieves, overwhelming the mountains and plains. Although there are only more than 40,000 people, they seem to be extremely powerful.
Not enough. This cannot scare Liu Bei and others, let alone the tens of thousands of people under his command. Most of these people are from the Yellow Turbans, and they know too well what kind of virtues they have before.
"How to fight?" Looking at the team in front, Liu Bei turned to Wang Xuan and asked.
Wang Xuan looked at Xi Zhicai without saying anything. Xi Zhicai said directly without thinking too much: "Just crush it with an upright division. Our army is elite and the enemy's army is scattered. The army is divided into three armies: left, middle and right. The left and middle armies advance normally.
, the right side is the main force, the auxiliary cavalry charges, the first step is to open the gap, as long as there is a small breakthrough, these yellow scarf thieves can completely collapse."
To be honest, Xi Zhicai also knew that Liu Bei's men were basically trained by Yellow Turban thieves, but marching all the way here really surprised him.
Although he was just starting out and had no experience in leading soldiers before, he had never eaten pork but had seen pigs running away. At least the county soldiers in Yingchuan and the soldiers from other places he had seen were definitely not so elite.
The marching speed is fast and the movements are uniform. Whether marching or camping, there is a complete set of procedures. It is pleasing to the eye and the speed is extremely fast. It is difficult to imagine how undisciplined these guys were a few months ago.
Although I have never seen the scenes of these armies fighting, I know from a glance that the army with such orders and prohibitions must be the best among the best.
It's just that... every time it's time to eat, Xi Zhicai feels distressed about the consumption of food and grass. How can he bear it if he continues to eat like this!
Liu Bei nodded frequently after hearing this. Although they were both upright and upright masters, they also had a lot of ingenuity. They could save a lot of energy to take down the Yellow Turban thieves by surprise.
"I suggest using thunderous means to annihilate this group of Yellow Turban thieves as much as possible to deter other thieves in Qingzhou. There are too many thieves in Qingzhou. If they cannot provide enough deterrence, there will be constant troubles along the way." Finally, Xi Zhicai added.
One sentence.
"This is a good strategy, but it does need to deter the enemy." Wang Xuan nodded in agreement, and suddenly smiled and said: "However, there is another way to deter these bandits!"
"In addition, those who can be killed will not be killed. They are all Han people. No matter how much they kill, it is not worth showing off and attacking. These people will eventually become the labor force to build Qingzhou. If they can stay, they will stay. Also, Qi County was chosen in the first place.
Another reason is 'safety'!"
Safety?
Qijun is basically the center of the three million Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. If you go to the Linhai side, the other three sides are surrounded by Yellow Turban thieves. How can you say the word safety?
Xi Zhicai blinked, thoughtfully.
"Of course it's safe. No matter who wants to attack us, they have to pass through the Yellow Turban-occupied areas of at least two counties. Unless they are not afraid of their back roads and food routes being cut off, they will have to push in bit by bit. That will cost a lot of money."
The time and energy are too much, so I say it’s safe, either face the other princes or face the Yellow Turban bandits, let you choose, whichever you choose!”
Everyone looked at each other, this idea is quite strange, but... it is true that the Yellow Turban Thieves are much better than other princes. Even though there are many Yellow Turban Thieves, they really care about harm. They are much worse than the princes. At least the Yellow Turban Thieves can't do anything.
Scheming.
It’s also strange. Others choose to develop based on stability under the rule of law, but Wang Xuan does the opposite. The strangest thing is that he also says it succinctly...
A group of them were chatting here, completely ignoring the 40,000-strong Yellow Turban army. At this moment, the Yellow Turban thieves saw that the officers and soldiers were standing still, thinking that the officers and soldiers were afraid, so they shouted and charged.
"Yun Chang, Yide, Evil Lai, the three of you, come forward and capture the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief. Try to keep him alive!" Seeing that the Yellow Turban Thief was about to make a move, Wang Xuan gave the order directly.
"I obey!" The three of them looked excited and rushed out... Well, there was one on foot, but the speed was not slow!
"Is this... okay?" Seeing Wang Xuan giving such an order, Xi Zhicai instinctively felt that it was a bit outrageous.
Taking the head of a general among thousands of armies, such as searching a bag to retrieve something, is probably just an exaggeration by the literati. Anyway, he is the one who doesn't believe it.
"Look, look carefully!" Wang Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed forward. The yellow scarf thieves are really a mob. The 40,000-strong army can't even condense the cloud energy. In this case, it is impossible to stop Guan Yu.
A master who cultivates the power of energy and releases it to the outside world.
Xi Zhicai tried his best to look towards the front of the two armies. In just one sentence, Guan Yu and the others had already rushed to the front of the Yellow Turban bandits. He saw that Guan Yu's body was gradually shrinking, but his momentum was getting stronger and stronger.
Shockingly, before Kankan reached the formation of the Yellow Turban Thief Army, the light on the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand suddenly surged, and he slashed down hard.
As if the heaven and earth were created, there seemed to be only a huge green sword light dozens of meters high left between the heaven and the earth. It rushed towards the Yellow Turban bandit army with unrivaled momentum.
As if it was devastating, when the first sword dozens of meters high disappeared, a gap two hundred meters long and more than ten meters wide had been pulled out of the Yellow Turban bandit formation. There was not a single living person in the gap.
Only the blood and flesh scattered all over the sky are telling something.
Not only was the yellow turban thief scared to death, Xi Zhicai was also dumbfounded. It was indeed the first time for him to see what kind of existence the realm where Gang Qi was released was like.
Guan Yu and the other two men rushed madly along the gap. After one strike, there was another strike. This time the green sword light was even taller. Before anyone could react, they once again cut a big gap in the Yellow Turban Thief. At the end of the gap
We have almost reached the position of the Yellow Turban leader's central army.
