Chapter 602 It’s All Taoism
There is not much history related to the Yellow Turban Army in textbooks.
But as a big IP, the Three Kingdoms has too many related works.
Xia Yanzhen has been exposed to some, and with his memory, he can barely piece together the general historical process from the lot of fragmented memories.
The Yellow Turban Army is about to go downhill.
The horn of counterattack was blown from Huangfu Song's side.
"If I remember correctly, you can suggest to Huangfu Song that you go out and set fire at night and take this opportunity to attack. Anyway, it is recorded that this is how the Yellow Turban Army defeated the Yellow Turban Army and started to counterattack. You can try it." Xia Yanzhen wrote down what he said. Tell the four people of Baizhan what happened.
Bai Zhan plans to find an opportunity to give it a try and promote the process of history.
As for Xia Yanzhen, the historical process was very easy to push forward.
Zou Jing led a total of 5,000 people, and he had to face at least a dozen times as many Yellow Turban troops.
And there must be more than two generals.
If you want to be like Daxingshan, you can wait for work in leisure, occupy the favorable location, and kill the opponent's generals as quickly as possible. The leaderless group, so the situation of defeating the Yellow Turban Army is difficult to replicate.
After entering Qingzhou, Zou Jing slowed down and discussed with Liu Bei and others how to defeat the Yellow Turban Army and relieve the siege of Qingzhou.
In the camp, Liu Bei said: "There are many thieves and we are few, so we must use surprise troops to win."
He felt that the troops should be divided and the Yellow Turban Army should be led into the "trap" as much as possible, so that they could win by using the right location to attack from a pincer.
"Divide the troops?" Zou Jing looked at the others again, "What do you think?"
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu didn't say anything. They always followed the lead of their elder brother.
Others have no objections - the three brothers Liu Bei and Xia Shi, the righteous Taoist priest of Kunlun Xuanmen, have a very impressive record of breaking 500,000 from 500.
Convincing.
More importantly, during this period, some people felt that the three Liu Bei brothers were just lucky enough to defeat the Yellow Turban bandits.
Liu Bei has a gentle attitude, but Mr. Guan and Mr. Zhang are not used to them.
Guan Yu raised his hand and struck with a knife. Before the man finished speaking Yin and Yang, his head felt cold and his hair and hat fell down together.
His hair was cut off by the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, which was like a severed head.
You know, in this era, it is important to take care of your body, hair and skin, and being cut off is considered an alternative punishment to beheading.
This knife only cuts off the hair, and the next knife will chop off the head.
This is not over yet.
Guan Yu only made one move, and his eyes narrowed again, too lazy to take another look.
Zhang Fei, on the other hand, had a pair of bull's-eyes and blocked the door every day, yelling and scolding, and wanted to challenge others to a one-on-one fight, regardless of life or death.
These people are not too stupid and have a clear understanding of their personal force value.
Knowing that he was no match for a reckless man like Zhang Fei, he stayed behind closed doors.
In the end, Xia Yanzhen disliked Zhang Fei's yelling and scolding for disturbing him every day, so he took Zhang Fei away to calm things down.
It can be seen from this incident that Liu Bei is a bad person.
Let Zhang Fei toss those people and don't care.
Guan and Zhang took action and undoubtedly established the "leadership position" under Zou Jing with Liu Bei as the core.
Xia Yanzhen is also respectfully called Daochang Xia by many people.
Not much to say about the reason, just taking Zhang Fei away is enough.
At that time, someone saw with their own eyes that Daoist Xia stretched out his hand to grab Zhang Fei and then left.
The reckless man danced in mid-air without resisting. He just asked, "Daozhang Xia, what are you doing?"
"You are too noisy, disturbing my practice."
"oh."
That's the end of it.
Zhang Fei was able to listen to Xia Yanzhen's words so much. Apart from defeating him once and helping him defeat the Yellow Turban Thief (actually it was Tiamat's credit), there was another important reason.
It was during this time that several people often competed and each gained something.
Moreover, in a place where no one knew, even the three Liu Bei brothers could not defeat Daochang Xia together.
A strong person is naturally respected.
Now "Liu Bei's small group" is number one under Zou Jing.
Zou Jing relies heavily on them, so others will naturally not get into trouble.
Liu Daer said to divide the troops to lure the enemy, then divide the troops to lure the enemy.
Seeing that others had no more ideas, Zou Jing decided on a strategy.
"How about we just fight?" Xia Yanzhen said suddenly.
"Fight directly?" Zou Jing looked at Xia Yanzhen and then at Liu Bei.
"Daozhang Xia, if we attack directly, maybe..." Liu Bei said.
"You have to try the yellow scarf thieves. If they are weak in combat, you don't have to use tricks in the future. You can just run over them." Xia Yanzhen said.
Judgment of the level of combat effectiveness is a judgment, and practice is the only criterion for testing truth.
"Just give us a thousand people. Let's test the true fighting power of the Yellow Turban bandits first." Xia Yanzhen looked at Liu Bei, "Fighting in front, Xuande, what do you think?"
Liu Bei thought for a moment: "Okay."
Then he said that the division of troops could also be carried out at the same time.
To put it simply, a thousand of them go out to fight, and the others are ready.
If we can win, we will naturally attack together to relieve the danger of Qingzhou City.
If you lose, take advantage of the situation to lure the enemy, and move the yellow scarf thieves into a suitable place for a flanking attack.
Naturally, no one objects to such a plan.
After some preparations, Liu Bei and Xia Yanzhen led their troops and set off, followed by a thousand-man army.
Among them were fifty horsemen—not including the four in front.
Tiamat still led the horse for Xia Yanzhen, and its original job was temporarily replaced by the horse, so it could only do the next best thing.
Outside Qingzhou City.
The Yellow Turban Army set up camp and besieged Qingzhou City.
All surrounding towns and villages were looted to supply the Yellow Turban Army with supplies.
After defeating Qingzhou City and plundering some more, these Yellow Turbans will leave and head to the next place.
Although the Yellow Turban Army is showing the potential of starting a prairie fire, its shortcomings are gradually exposed.
Except for the main force Zhang Jiao, it is not an exaggeration to say that the rest of the Yellow Turban Army are large bandits.
What they did was to conquer one place, burn, kill, loot, and then move on to the next place.
A few know that a base camp is to be established and will restrain their subordinates a little.
Most of them are locusts passing through.
Now there are three Yellow Turban troops trapped in Qingzhou City. Zhang Rao and the Guan brothers formed an offensive and defensive alliance.
Among them, Zhang Rao is the main one.
Because the Guan brothers were brave and good at fighting, they liked to lead troops in charge and often served as vanguard generals.
Zhang Rao was in the rear.
It is equivalent to Liu Bei and others and Zou Jing now.
To break it down a little further, it is the tactical positions of Liu Bei, Guan and Zhang.
Liu Bei was extremely powerful, but in terms of martial arts, he was inferior to Guan and Zhang.
Among the three brothers, Guan Yu has the highest martial arts, followed by Zhang Fei and Liu Bei the last.
In a duel before the formation, the two younger brothers usually take action, and Liu Bei does not fight.
But this time, even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't have to take action.
The army of a thousand men arrived, making no secret of it.
The Yellow Turban Army naturally reacted and began to gather amidst the sound of war drums.
The two armies faced each other outside Qingzhou City. One side had thousands of soldiers, while the other side had a mighty force of 70,000 to 80,000. This was not all.
Some of them are still gathering, and some of them want to continue to guard Qingzhou City.
It is impossible for the Yellow Turban Army to go out to fight as soon as reinforcements arrive. What if Qingzhou City sends troops to make dumplings?
With this kind of battlefield awareness and war literacy, Qu Shuai of the Yellow Turban Army who can defeat the besieged Qingzhou City must have some.
On the Yellow Turban Army side, the generals responsible for the duel before the formation were the Guan brothers.
One holds a spear, the other holds a long ax, wears armor, and rides on a similarly armored horse, exuding a fierce aura.
At a glance, he knew that he was the murderer of Yingye.
"If I don't ask for help, don't send troops, just defend." Xia Yanzhen said to Liu Bei.
"..."
Liu Bei hesitated to speak but nodded.
Zhang Fei slightly widened his already big eyes, and Guan Yu opened his eyes completely and looked at Xia Yanzhen.
Let’s test the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army. How?
The answer given by Daochang Xia was that he would "test" it alone at that time.
Don't help if you don't ask for help.
If he hadn't confirmed it repeatedly on the way, Liu Bei would definitely have stopped him at this time.
Seeing Xia Yanzhen dismounting and walking forward slowly, Zhang Fei said: "Second brother, Daoist Xia wants to break the formation alone, can you do it?"
"If you give me a good horse and kill these two people first, I should be able to break into the enemy's formation and try to take the enemy general's head." Guan Yu said.
This is based on the fact that there are no more masters in the opponent's army.
If there are a few who are weaker than him and don't besiege him, you can still give it a try.
The siege is hard to say.
As for the emergence of a master as strong as him, there is nothing to say, and he will definitely die.
"Can Daozhang Xia really do it without riding a horse?"
"Let's see." Liu Bei said, "Daochang Xia is a very human being."
"Who is coming! Tell me your name!"
Seeing Xia Yanzhen dismounting and approaching alone, Guan Hai, the elder brother of the Guan brothers, shouted and asked, and at the same time he rode forward.
This is a duel.
"Kunlun, Xia Shiyi."
Xia Yanzhen kept walking, but he didn't speed up or slow down. He seemed to be taking a leisurely pace.
"The one who kills you! Guan Hai, the commander-in-chief of the Yellow Turban Army!"
Guan Hai came on horseback and stabbed Xia Yanzhen with the spear in his hand. This move was as fast as lightning, "Heaven is dead, Huang Tian is standing!"
Guns are faster than words!
One-on-one duels before battle should be fair, because a fair one-on-one kill can greatly enhance one's own morale.
But it's not that fair either.
For example, if one side is not riding a horse, the other side must also dismount to fight. If one side does not carry a weapon, the other side cannot carry it either.
For another example, when Zhang Fei stabbed Deng Mao to death, Cheng Zhiyuan immediately attacked with a sneak attack, but Guan Yu, who was well prepared, killed him with a backhand.
Fair, but not that fair.
After all, as long as you can kill the opponent, even if it is a lie or a sneak attack, it is still good.
If you can kill the opponent with one arrow from a distance, then of course you are capable.
Guan Hai rode his horse and fired a shot, which was very normal. They were all generals, and it was natural to fight on horseback.
Those who don’t ride horses are in the minority.
Facing the roaring and powerful gun, Xia Yanzhen stretched out his hand and firmly grasped the head of the gun.
The horse neighed and continued to rush forward.
The Guan Haima man above separated, holding the gun in the air. His expression was a little scary for a moment, and he didn't know if he should abandon the gun and drop it.
Before he could think about it, Xia Yanzhen sent him forward.
Guan Hai flew out upside down, drew an arc, and flew into the military formation behind.
"kill!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Guan Hai's younger brother roared and charged directly.
A group of cavalry behind him immediately followed, followed by infantry.
No Archers - Although morale allows soldiers to fight without training, archery cannot be solved by morale.
It still takes time to cultivate elite soldiers like archers.
Facing the oncoming army, Xia Yanzhen raised his hand, took out Qingyun from the Wrath of the Sun, and stabbed forward!
bayonet!
Suddenly, a large amount of blood mist floated out in front, and Guan Hai's brother, together with the surrounding cavalry, disappeared.
"What is that!" Zhang Fei blurted out with his eyes widened.
Loud voice.
Xia Yanzhen paused slightly as he advanced, then turned around and replied: "Tao method."
That flying evil dragon is Daofa, and the current big gun (?) is also Daofa.
He Zhang Feixin!
