Chapter 425

In the end, Lu Zhi failed to dance swords and toast for everyone as promised. The smooth development of the war situation far exceeded Lu Zhi's expectations.

It needs to be emphasized that Lu Zhi never planned to wipe out the Yellow Turban Army in a single battle. The best strategic expectation before the war was to break through Guangzong City and wipe out part of the Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Zhi was so arrogant that he thought he could encircle and annihilate more than 10 million Yellow Turbans in one battle with 6 million troops!

And the scene in front of him made Lu Zhi feel that it is not impossible to completely wipe out the Yellow Turban Army!

An unprecedented defeat occurred in Guangzong City. Countless Yellow Turban soldiers wandered around like headless chickens. The command system of the Yellow Turban Army collapsed completely.

Except for a very small number of elite troops who were able to maintain the basic organizational system, the rest of the Yellow Turban Army all herded their sheep and fled in all directions, howling.

Because the city wall was destroyed by Shang Ji on his own initiative, the defeated troops lost the last obstacle to leave the city. The Yellow Turban Army of the brigade threw away their helmets and armor, and swarmed out of the city.

Seen from the sky, the yellow figure was like a sea wave, and the crowd rushed out of Guangzong City like ants.

"Pass on the commander's order, the whole army will attack and chase down the bandits!"

Lu Zhi roared excitedly, drew out his sword, and roared in the direction of Guangzong City.

The horn of charge resounded through the sky, and the six million Han troops rushed to Guangzong City with high morale!

Shang Ji still led his troops to stand firm in the City Lord's Mansion. The troops here were all the best of the best, and a large part of them maintained a smooth command. However, at this time, there were differences of opinion among the various Yellow Turban generals.

Some of them tried to wipe out the Shang Ji army with the idea of ​​pulling back their backs even if they died; the other part planned to retreat immediately based on the principle of keeping the green hills alive and not afraid of losing their talents.

Neither of the two parties could convince the other, and there was no heavyweight to make a decision. In the end, the only remaining elite Yellow Turban army split!

Some rushed towards the west of the city without looking back, while the other planned to die with the Shang Ji army!

If the rest of the Yellow Turban Army worked together to attack the City Lord's Mansion, there was still a small chance of success, but now the split of the Yellow Turban Army has made their threat plummet.

Faced with the last tens of thousands of elite Yellow Turbans, Shang Ji did not intend to continue to defend.

No matter whether it was the soldiers of the Fifth School of the Northern Army or the gathered historical generals, they were not in a good temper. After being beaten by the Yellow Turban Army for so long, everyone was full of anger.

Now that the strength of the enemy and ourselves has reversed, naturally there is no need to endure it any longer. Under the leadership of Shang Ji, the surviving more than 3,000 infantry battalion soldiers, together with dozens of historical generals, roared towards the tens of thousands of Yellow Turban elites!

The result of the war did not exceed Shang Ji's expectations. Although the remaining Yellow Turbans had the will to die, which greatly improved their combat power, the absolute gap in strength could not be made up by explosions.

Half an hour later, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers were slaughtered, and there were only 3,000 soldiers left in the infantry battalion of the Northern Army!

The battle damage rate is as high as 40%, but it is definitely worth it!

Presumably, Lu Zhi himself would be very satisfied with this result. Even if the entire 5,000 infantry battalion is wiped out, as long as it can be exchanged for the current results, it will be a bloody profit.

The war in the north came to an end, which heralded the countdown to the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army.

Although there are still tens of millions of Yellow Turban troops in the south, they can only barely protect themselves under the siege of Huangfusong. Once the troops of Lu Zhi's tribe in the north are released and the lions march south, the world will be at peace soon.

Shang Ji's strategic vision is not bad, and he can see this naturally. He has secretly contacted Qin Ping, who is in charge of the army outside the city, and asked him to capture as many prisoners as possible, and seize the opportunity to seize the materials and equipment of the Yellow Turban Army. It is heavy equipment such as trebuchets and bed crossbows.

The lack of powerful siege (defending) equipment has always been a major weakness of the Shang army, and looking at the world, there is only such an opportunity to make a big deal in a short period of time.

After clearing away the Yellow Turbans who resisted last, Shang Ji and the others did not take the initiative to attack again.

Firstly, after fighting for so long, the soldiers and generals are all exhausted and unsuitable to continue fighting; secondly, judging from the current situation, the Yellow Turban Army has no combat power, so it is absolutely overkill to use the elite of the five schools to chase the captives .

A thousand people were left to guard the city lord's mansion to take care of the wounded, and Shang Ji led them straight to the treasury and other places.

After taking such a big risk and fighting bloody battles for so long, it's finally time to reap the rewards!

There is no reason in the world to let the horse run and not let the horse graze. You must know that most of the generals here have raised their own military expenses to support Lu Zhi. When the army breaks through the enemy city, it is natural to take a wave to make up for the losses. Even Lu Zhi acquiesces in this situation.

A group of people rushed to the warehouse of Guangzong City excitedly, and Shang Ji used the authority of the city lord to quickly check the reserves in the warehouse.

"Gold: 126.98 million; 270 million stones of food and grass; 3.2 million sets of various equipment; 93 million units of iron ore and 134 million units of stone ………”

Shang Ji directly showed the inventory to everyone present, and everyone gasped and gasped, almost dripping to the ground.

"Shang...General Shang is here, how... how do we divide this?" Geng Wu swallowed, and asked with some difficulty.

Shang Ji pondered for a moment, and instead of answering Geng Wu's question, he asked instead: "Do you have large-scale space equipment?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, only Ma Teng, Gongsun Zan, and Liu Bei nodded, indicating that they had space equipment.

"How about this, here is 120 million gold, how about we take 40% and leave 60% for Lu Gong?"

Shang Ji wanted to take all the gold coins away, but Lu Zhi would go crazy if that happened. After thinking about it several times, Shang Ji chose to divide up 40% of it.

Moreover, the number of gold coins in the warehouse is seriously less than expected. At the beginning, Helian only ravaged some states and counties in Youzhou, and collected more than 300 million gold. The Yellow Turban Army spread all over the states, and its scale, strength, and duration were far superior In the original Xianbei Army, Shang Ji estimated that the Yellow Turban Army had at least one billion yuan in funds.

However, there is only a little more than 100 million gold at present, and the missing part must be related to the mysterious disappearance of Zhang Jiao and other historical generals of the Yellow Turban.

"We divide according to the strength ratio of the personnel who will fight in this battle and the size of your official positions. Do you have any opinions?"

"It's all up to General Shang's orders!" This plan is reasonable, and everyone will naturally not object.

According to this plan, the one who gained the most is of course Shang Ji himself, with 48 million gold and Shang Ji monopolizing 12 million. Followed by Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Ma Teng, and Gongsun Zan. Chunyu Qiong and Geng Wu were at the bottom, and Geng Wu was the worst, with only one million gold, less than one tenth of Shang Ji's.

But this has already made Geng Wu overjoyed, he is very self-aware, he understands that he spent most of his trip soy sauce, and being able to have a million gold is already the result of Shang Ji's care.

After distributing the money, everyone turned their attention to the supplies and equipment. Shang Ji smiled and said directly: "This general is the master. As long as Xuande, Shoucheng, and Bogui can take away, they can take whatever they want. Rely on ability!"

"As for those who don't have space equipment, I will compensate each person with two million stones of food and grass. Do you think this is okay?"

"General Gao Yi, I admire you!"

There was no space equipment, and the sad faces immediately lifted their spirits when they heard the words, and thanked Shang Ji in unison.

"General's benevolence and righteousness, I admire it!" Ma Teng and Liu Bei also showed joy and saluted Shang Ji excitedly.
