Chapter 79 Arson

"Defeated!" Outside Changshe City, Bo Cai's camp looked at the Yellow Turban general who ran back to take the crime with a dirty face. Bo Cai looked at him in disbelief. Even if the Yellow Turban Army had low combat power, the four thousand men fought against two thousand county soldiers with low combat power, and they were defeated so quickly. Putting aside the marching time, the battle ended in less than half an hour.

The Yellow Turban General lowered his head silently and did not dare to say anything, which was a default.

Seeing his appearance, Bo Cai was even more angry and scolded: "Four thousand people fought against two thousand county soldiers, and they were driven back in less than half an hour. You are really capable!"

"The Han army is not ordinary county and state soldiers, all of them are extremely brave, and..." The Yellow Turban general carefully looked up and glanced at Bo before hiding his head lower, his chin was about to poke his stomach. The sound became smaller and smaller as he reached the back. In the end, he wouldn't hear it if he hadn't listened carefully.

"And what!?" Bo Chu lowered his head and stared at him fiercely.

"And... the official army did not all dispatch, only five...a hundred people were sent out!" The Yellow Turban General almost lay on the ground and finished speaking this sentence.

"Five hundred people!" Bo Cai was no longer angry now, his eyes were wide open, staring at this person. As the commander of the first army, he knew very well what this concept was. He fought against eight and won completely. Even Huangfu Song had never achieved such a record, otherwise Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun would not be trapped in the Changshe and would not be able to make a comeback.

Of course, this is also related to the small scale, but even so, 4,000 people went out and were driven back by 500 enemy troops. This was definitely a shameful record since the Taiping Cult's uprising.

"Come on, drag the waste that damages our military power out and cut it out for me!" Bo Cai suddenly stood up and stared at the Yellow Turban General Senran.

"Master Qu, no!" Chen Bai, the general under Bo Cai, stood up and bowed to Bo Cai, "Master Qu, now that the war is coming, we will kill our brothers first. Wouldn't that let the official army take a joke? And I have heard of Ye Zhao, but I haven't remembered it before, but after this incident, this person had broken the gathering of my sect in Ji County, even cheated Guan Hai away, and lied to us for conflict with the Hedong Wei family, which almost made my Taiping Cult noticed by the court in advance."

"What happened?" Bo Cai frowned.

"Master Qu has been running around the Central Plains for many years and does not know about the matter in the north. Ye Zhao is an extraordinary person. He once served as the Macheng Order of Youzhou. Not only did he make Macheng prosperous, but he also defeated the Xianbei and Wuhuan several times. Last year, he burned all the Xianbei elites in Macheng and killed the Xianbei Shanyu and Lian. He served as the magistrate of the Wuhuan. He was definitely not an ordinary county magistrate. If it were not for his background and was too young, he would be more than just a prime minister of Liang." Chen Bai bowed and said.

"There is such a young hero in the court?" Bo Cai widened his eyes in surprise, and then regretted: "If I had known this person had such ability, I shouldn't have sent troops rashly!"

Chen Bai said in a deep voice: "So it is not the time to hold accountable. Now Ye Zhao is coming to help, and the reinforcements of the court are coming soon. We should break through the Changshe as soon as possible and capture Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun first to increase our army's prestige. As long as these two people are defeated, Ye Zhao will be able to shake our 100,000 army with two thousand soldiers!"

"It's just that with this person behind the scenes, our army will probably find it difficult to attack the city with all its strength!" Another Yellow Turban general frowned.

"What's the difficulty? You can divide a group of troops to watch Ye Zhao." Chen Bai said with a smile.

"What do you think? Five hundred can defeat four thousand. If you want to keep an eye on him, wouldn't we have to give away 20,000 and join the Malay?" A Yellow Turban general frowned.

"No need!" Bo waved his hand and said, "In this battle, I underestimated the enemy. Besides, we are not going to fight him head-on, just watch him. Ten thousand people are enough! Chen Fai, you personally lead the army to watch him. When I attack the Chief Society, settle the score with him!"

"Here!" Chen Bai stepped forward and bowed.

...

Changshe, above the city tower.

The official army did not have the depressed spirit as imagined. Although it was defeated by Bo Cai, it was now refusing to defend the city, with strict rules and sufficient morale, and it was not like a defeated army at all.

Huangfu Song stood on the city tower, watching the formation of the Yellow Turban Army. After a long time, he shook his head and smiled at Zhu Jun beside him, "Although this wave has courage, but no wisdom. Such a camp based on grass is really a way to kill himself!"

Zhu Jun stroked his beard and nodded and smiled. Although Bo Cai's previous performance was indeed amazing, neither Huangfu Song nor Zhu Jun could look down on this person, especially now, Bo Cai has committed such a taboo, which makes them even more disdainful.

"This time, Your Majesty lifted the party ban, and the grievances that our scholars have suffered over the years have finally been resolved. When we pacify the Yellow Turban, we no longer have to rely on He Jin's butcher's family. At that time, we will assist Your Majesty and drive away the eunuchs to the court. "Huangfu Song patted the female wall, looked at the endless Yellow Turban camp outside the city, and sneered: "Let this wave be rampant for a while."

"Hmm?" As he was talking to Huangfu Song about some affairs, Zhu Jun suddenly frowned slightly, and looked at the direction of the Yellow Turban Army camp and said, "Brother Yizhen, look."

When Huangfu Song heard this, he looked in the direction of the Yellow Turban Army, but saw a group of troops split into the Yellow Turban Army in the direction of the back formation and heading southeast.

The mobilization of tens of thousands of people naturally could not hide the eyes of the two veterans. Huangfu Song frowned and said, "It seems that a soldier had appeared before. What is the purpose of this wave?"

"Is there some reinforcements here?" Zhu Jun frowned and guessed.

"Following this situation, there are probably a lot of reinforcements." Huangfu Song's face also became ugly. He also hoped to take this opportunity to ask the court for some more money and food. If reinforcements came at this time, his plan would probably be destroyed.

"But Bo only divided his troops to intercept him. It seems that reinforcements have not arrived yet!" Zhu Jun nodded and looked at Huangfu Song.

"Just watch quietly, the main force of Bocai is still there, and the reinforcements will not come here in the short term." Huangfu Song frowned and said, "You can contact our army to contact the reinforcements in the Yellow Turban Army to make detailed contacts and help him stay calm. When the time is right, then take a plan of internal and external cooperation to annihilate the bandits in one fell swoop."

Zhu Jun nodded in agreement when he heard this. At this time, the four doors were closed and naturally they could not contact each other secretly. He had to wait to go tonight before contacting him.

...

Outside Changshe City, on a hill, Ye Zhao led Dian Wei and several others to stand on the hill, carefully examining the formation of the Yellow Turban Army.

Although Bo Cai was born in a wild path, his years of experience and practice were obviously not completely out of order. At least in Ye Zhao's view, this besieged camp still has some standards, and it was not divided into several scattered arrangements like Liang Fa, but this camp is established...

Ye Zhao looked at the surrounding terrain, shook his head, turned his horse's head and said, "Go back to camp."

"Why did the lord leave just now? Didn't you want to see the camp of these bandits?" Qiu Chi followed up with a puzzled look and looked at Ye Zhao in confusion.

"No need to watch it. Tonight, I will break this camp!" Ye Zhao smiled without looking back while urging his horse to return to the camp.

No matter how well the camp was established, it would be useless. The water and fire were ruthless. Bo Cai had already committed a big taboo. After a big fire, even the strong camp was gone. How could it be necessary to continue to observe Bo Cai's camp? After Ye Zhao led Dian Wei, Qiu Chi and a group of personal guards back to the camp, he immediately summoned Ding Li, Liao Chun and other generals to discuss matters and ordered Ding Li to select elite soldiers to set fire. Liao Hua was responsible for leading troops to shaking flags and shouting from all directions to disperse the Yellow Turban thieves. Ye Zhao led the main force to pursue him, and it would be best to take Bo Cai down.

As for Huangfu Song in the city, whether Zhu Jun would send troops to help, Ye Zhao did not consider it. Since he had the opportunity to fight quickly, he would never give these two people a chance to stop him. Rescue in this battle is the primary priority, and killing the enemy is the secondary.

In fact, Ye Zhao really didn't want too many people to die in this war. After all, the Yellow Turban Army was mostly a group of people. Too many people died, which was not a good thing for the entire country and nation.

...

As time passes by bit by bit, the sun sets and the night becomes darker. In the Yellow Turban camp, the Yellow Turban Army, who had no idea that the crisis was approaching, began to fall asleep.

The envoy sent by Zhu Jun took advantage of the night to touch the barracks and found the Han army in the Yellow Turban Army. Just as he was about to inform Zhu Jun of his orders, he suddenly heard a burst of screams from the camp. At the same time, there were fires around the Yellow Turban Army camp and spreading towards this side. After a while, it had already burned into the barracks. Countless Yellow Turban Army soldiers were startled by the sudden fire and ran around in panic. The Yellow Turban Army generals rushed out of the tent, wanting to stabilize the general's morale, but the morale of the army was already in chaos, so how could they stabilize it.

Bo found out that something was wrong at the first time. Before he could wear his armor, he rushed out of the camp with his sword. What caught his eye was a fire that surged into the sky. He immediately reacted, and he secretly called out in his heart. He quickly pulled a general and said, "Hurry up, notify Peng Tuo, Chen defeated them and stop the troops from retreating to Yangdi!"

The shouts of killing were heard from all directions, making the Yellow Turban Army even more chaotic. But Bo Chai could hear that there were not many Han troops around, not the main force of the official army in the city. It should be the new Ye Zhao who saw the flaws and bluffs. But at this moment, it was impossible to stay here. The fire only burned the forage, but in terms of lethality, the army was not strong, and the morale of the army was already in chaos. He must escape as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Han army in Changshe reacted, it would be really over.

Under Bo Cai's organization, the Yellow Turban Army began to evacuate the camp. Ye Zhao led his army to attack fiercely, but he only had one school of troops. No matter how powerful it was, it would be impossible to kill the 100,000 troops.

There is no need to report carefully in Changshe City. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were already alarmed by the fire outside the city. When they arrived on the city, they were seeing the Yellow Turban Army’s chaos. The sound of the Han army’s horns came faintly in the night sky.

"Who is it? It's a big deal for me!" Looking at the Yellow Turban Army running in a panic, Huangfu Song was not happy but angry, and punched the female wall hard, with a sinister look in his eyes.

"The Yellow Turbans have been defeated. Will we pursue them?" Zhu Jun frowned, but he was also from a poor family. Although he had miscalculated, he was not as angry as Huangfu Song. Now he is considering whether to pursue them while he is victorious.

"Chasing!" Huangfu Song said gritting his teeth after being silent for a moment.
