Chapter 148 Zhang Bao abandoned the city

"The traitor leader Zhang Jiao is dead. Do you still want to resist stubbornly?"

This sentence made many Yellow Turban soldiers feel cold.

They have been staying in Xiaquyang City these days, and they also know that the great wise and good men from Guangzong are confronting the officers and soldiers.

It was agreed that all the officers and soldiers were concentrated in Guangzong. Now that the officers and soldiers can attack quietly, what is impossible?

Zhang Jiao promoted the Taiping Road, penetrated into the hearts of the Yellow Turban people in Jizhou, and was the spiritual belief of the Yellow Turban people in Jizhou.

In history, the surrender of 100,000 Yellow Turbans in Quyang City was not only because of Huangfu Song's sharp attack.

Zhang Jiao's death from illness has had a great impact on the entire Yellow Turban team.

"Yesterday, I still wrote a letter to General Tiangong. My brother is safe and sound. Guangzong is well. The officers and soldiers are turning black and white, just to disrupt my army's morale. Don't believe it! I have sent cavalry to ask for help from Guangzong, and reinforcements will arrive soon. For the sake of the current plan, we should fight to the death."

General Zhang Bao was late. He was very good at commanding troops. Without knowing the enemy's strength, he temporarily stabilized his morale.

Zhang Jiao asked Zhang Bao to stick to Xia Quyang alone, and he and Zhang Liang were guarding Guangzong. It can be seen that Zhang Jiao was very aware of Zhang Bao's ability.

Zhang Bao did not disappoint Zhang Jiao. When Dong Zhuo was in charge of the military in Jizhou, he tightly restrained Dong Zhuo in Xiaquyang, creating a chance for victory for Zhang Jiao.

Under Zhang Bao's leadership, the Yellow Turban soldiers slowly organized their combat power, but they were still no match for the Han army and they retreated again and again.

The battle can be seen in the streets and alleys, with the fire illuminating the whole city and the shouts of killing are shocking.

One hour later, half of Xiaquyang City was occupied by officers and soldiers. The living space of nearly 100,000 Yellow Turbans was gradually compressed, forcing Zhang Bao to order some of the Yellow Turbans to withdraw from Xiaquyang City.

The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!

A genius is fierce and strong, wearing armor and holding hard, and cannot be regarded as sharp!

One side was scattered and brave, lacking helmets and armor, and was afraid of the enemy!

When fighting in the city, it is useless to have too many people. The key is to look at combat effectiveness. Therefore, in a tough battle, once you are attacked into the city, it is almost impossible to turn over.

Seeing that there was no hope of victory, Zhang Bao gritted his teeth and made a decision.

The entire army withdrew from Xiaquyang City!

A hundred thousand army is completely spread out to a radius of more than ten miles.

It is still possible to defend the city, but it is impossible to fight with officers and soldiers in the city.

After all the Yellow Turbans in Quyang escaped from the city, it means that the battle can come to an end temporarily.

"Prince Guo, will you take advantage of the victory and pursue it? Expand the results of the battle!" Guan Yu asked Guo Dian.

"General Zhengbei knew that it was not easy to annihilate the enemy with 10,000 infantry. His order to attack Quyang City. If Xia Quyang City is broken, it will not affect the strategy of General Zhengbei. Zhang Bao and his men rushed out of Xia Quyang City, so they would not have brought much food?" Guo Dian said to the point.

"When Quyang arrives at Guangzong, the army will walk for at least four days. Zhang Bao knows that he is powerful, so he will definitely not go to Guangzong. If I were Zhang Bao, I will definitely gather troops to counterattack Xia Quyang. A desperate attempt." Guan Yu said seriously. His implication is very obvious. Zhang Bao may gather troops to counterattack Xia Quyang.

Zhang Bao was short of food, so he probably had to get up before he arrived in Guangzong. Even if he went to burn, kill and loot nearby, he would not be able to gather the food of the 100,000 troops in a short time.

Now, Zhang Bao has only one way to go except waiting for Zhang Jiao’s support, and counterattack Quyang.

Success or failure is here!

"Report!"

As soon as Guan Yu finished speaking, a soldier came to report: "Report to the prefect Guo, Guan Sima, and Zhang Bao escaped from Xia Quyang, destroying the east gate, south gate and north gate of Xia Quyang. Our army cannot recast the city gate for a short time."

"Zhang Bao, a thief, is quite capable! Guan Sima said well. Zhang Bao left behind his back and was determined to counterattack Quyang." Guo Dian frowned and said, "Although the battle today caused more than 10,000 casualties to the Yellow Turbans, most of the main forces of the Yellow Turbans are still there. If they are well prepared and attacked by four gates will be extremely unfavorable to our army."

"Take the initiative first, and then take the initiative to attack! Our army will be rested until dawn. After dawn, we will take the initiative to attack. The main force of Guo lords the main force to confront Zhang Bao's army head-on. I still lead a thousand warriors to penetrate Zhang Bao's abdomen. Capturing the thief first," Guan Yu bowed his hand and suggested to Guo Dian.

"Fortunately, the clouds will be long, otherwise I will be difficult."

Guo Dian agreed with Guan Yu's suggestion and sighed.

His ten thousand elite soldiers were either the elite Northern Army or the elite soldiers under Liu Fan's command. Guo Dian was deeply moved by his powerful combat power. Guo Dian was not afraid of fighting with the Yellow Turbans that were ten times more than he had.

Guo Dian is well versed in military tactics and knows that his side has all the conditions to win the more with less.

At present, Guo Dian ordered some soldiers to monitor Zhang Bao's Huang Turban movements, and some went into the city to find a place to rest.

After the Yellow Turban escaped from each gate, he stopped running away. Zhang Bao regrouped and wanted to make a comeback.

The city of Xiaquyang was lost and he had no face to face Zhang Jiao. Due to the hasty escape, he almost did not carry food and supplies, which made Zhang Bao face a great survival dilemma.

The moment he left the city, Zhang Bao thought of the strategy of counterattacking Qu Yang. The current situation is to take a desperate bet.

Zhang Bao did not immediately give a counterattack order. As soon as he escaped, his morale was still unstable. But he could not delay. The longer the delay, the more unfavorable it would be to them.

The sun is shining on the third o'clock, and it is time for him to blew the horn of counterattack.

The blink of an eye is sunrise and dawn.

The Han army used grain from the city to make rice, while most of the Yellow Turbans did not bring out the grain and could only stay hungry.

After the Han army had enough food and drink, they quickly gathered their troops out of the city and confronted the Yellow Turbans.

Zhang Bao was surprised that the officers and soldiers left the city. In his budget, the main force of officers and soldiers was stationed in Guangzong, and there would not be many officers and soldiers coming to attack.

After the officers and soldiers listed their formations, Zhang Bao observed the officers and soldiers' formations, with nearly 10,000 people.

"Our army is ten times more important than the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers are delusional to shake the big tree, and they are not self-esteem!" Zhang Bao took the opportunity to boost morale.

"Our army is an elite army of the Han Dynasty, with strong soldiers and strong armor, and the yellow turbans were ragged, like beggars. Every warrior in our army is ten times stronger than the Yellow Turbans. It is not impossible to fight ten with one." Guo Dian also boosted morale.

With one to ten, the Han army may not be able to defeat the Yellow Turbans alone, but this is a legion battle. It is compared with the commander's command ability, the combat power of the soldiers, and the coordination ability between the military formations.

The Han army carried the great victory, and the Yellow Turbans were defeated by the remnants.

The two sides are tense and the battle is about to begin!

...

Guangzong.

A messenger ran out of Liu Fan's central army tent and rode his horse towards Quzhou County.

"General Wuheng, you led 10,000 infantry soldiers toward Xiaquyang City in the north, marched at a speed and waited for my order." Liu Fan ordered the clan.

"No!" The clan received the order.

"The lieutenant of the Tunqi, the lieutenant of the Yueqi, the lieutenant of the Changshui, and the three of them led 4,000 cavalry to follow the General Wuheng, and once I give orders, I will act immediately." Liu Fan ordered the three lieutenant.

"No!" The three of them received the order.

"The remaining 15,000 soldiers guard the central army. The unparalleled achievements are today. I will remember your contributions and I will ask Your Majesty to reward you one by one!" At the end, Liu Fan said loudly.

"The general is mighty, and the Han army will win!" the entire battalion shouted.

The officers and soldiers who had been silent in the eyes of the Yellow Turbans for a long time finally moved.

Ten thousand infantry and forty thousand cavalry rushed north with great fanfare.
