Chapter 121 The Crazy Yellow Turban
"The Yellow Turbans are about to launch a very violent attack. This is a rare opportunity to make a contribution. We need to be deeply involved. We must prepare quickly in the past few days." Zhang Yu first revealed the bombshell news to several generals to prepare them.
Several people did not ask why Zhang Yu knew, nor why Zhang Yu was released.
In shock, Zhang Yu began to make detailed arrangements.
"Going out to hunt, the infantry is suspended from the task of attacking the Yellow Turban, and is fully prepared for the battle. The cavalry is in a group of 1000 people and continues hunting, but the target must be selective."
"In addition to training, the infantry needs to prepare various consumables, as well as more arrows."
Zhang Yu first arranged the battle.
"My lord, why should we participate in a battle of hundreds of thousands of troops, the loss will be too great." Ling Cao said.
Their army is different from the official army. The official army is raised by the court, but their army is raised by themselves.
Zhang Yu knew that they couldn't understand, so he said: "We need to develop. Preserving our strength is one way, and letting the army go through the test of blood and fire is also a way. In addition, we also need military achievements, not only for me, but for you all. "
To retain talents, we must give them good treatment. Although they may not betray Zhang Yu because of this, we must also work hard to help them seek benefits so that they can all honor their ancestors.
The ancients had a very deep thought of honoring their ancestors. Not to mention the ancients, this mentality is also very strong among modern people.
Giving them a few official positions in the imperial court will not only make things easier in the future, but also allow them to honor their ancestors, and more importantly, more talents will be willing to join Zhang Yu.
Sure enough, several people were very excited after understanding Zhang Yu's meaning.
Even Huang Zhong was not at peace.
Although Huang Zhong is an official, he is a very small official. Zhang Yu is indeed worth following if he can do this for his subordinates.
Then Zhang Yu will talk about the cooperation with Zhang Jiao.
Loyalty was not a problem for the few people present, even if Huang Zhong was not his subordinate, Zhang Yu did not shy away from it.
"My lord, this Jiao is really going crazy. In order to reduce food consumption, he wants hundreds of thousands of troops to die in vain." After hearing Zhang Jiao's plan, Ling Cao couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"From Zhang Jiao's point of view, this is nothing. Not only can he consume his own troops, but he can also take the opportunity to consume part of the official troops, and it can also give himself enough time."
Among the others, Dian Wei was a little excited. As long as he had battles to fight, he wouldn't think too much.
But Zhou Cang is at a loss, because the Yellow Turban he once played for is so and so.
Huang Zhong is much calmer, he is the oldest here, and he has seen more things in the world.
After assigning tasks, each went to work.
Zhang Yu is also not idle, and has to coordinate many things by himself, because Zhang Yu can't let ordinary soldiers know too much.
"We must establish a logistics base close to the battlefield." Zhang Yu thought of Xi Zhicai and wanted to move Xi Zhicai to his side, at least as close as possible, so that he could help with logistics matters.
Just doing what he said, Zhang Yu searched many places around Guangzong, and finally confirmed that a small town more than 30 miles away from Guangzong City would be used as a logistics base, and asked Xi Zhicai to bring people here.
Besides Zhang Jiao, after three days of preparation, Zhang Jiao also started to make arrangements.
Three days after Zhang Yu left the city, Zhang Jiao finally launched an attack.
From the very beginning, [-] troops were mobilized, [-] of which were the yellow scarves who had not received much training, while the other [-] were elites led by Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang.
These elites have two functions. One is to stabilize the morale of the army. If it is one-sided, then these yellow turbans will be easily slaughtered and are of little value.
The second is to prepare for a sneak attack on the officers and soldiers. Once the officers and soldiers cannot hold on, there is a gap, or they underestimate the enemy, they can hide in it and attack suddenly.
"kill."
"rush."
Suddenly, the four gates of Guangzong City opened, and a hundred thousand troops poured out.
The officers and soldiers who had been paying close attention were greatly shocked, and hastily mobilized all the troops to reinforce the camp and prepare for the enemy's attack.
The Yellow Turban came so suddenly that Huangfusong was completely unprepared.
Fortunately, Huangfu Song's army is very strict, even if there is no war, the defense of the camp is very good.
"General Huangfu, are these Yellow Turbans crazy?" A general said after seeing the Yellow Turbans' attack.
"Look at them. They didn't care about their lives at all. They rushed directly to the gate of the camp and let us kill them." Another general who was watching the battle said.
"I observed it just now. About ten yellow scarves are exchanged for one of our soldiers. They are all willing to do this."
Several generals were watching the battle, Huangfusong kept his face sullen, neither happy nor sad.
Huangfusong didn't know Huangjin's intentions, so he never made a decision.
After the Yellow Turbans left the city, they began to attack frantically. At the beginning, the officers and soldiers were not used to this style of play and suffered a big loss.
"Not good, you immediately divided up and ordered the soldiers to guard the camp and focus on defense. This is because the Yellow Turbans use these little combat power to consume our troops, and finally use elite soldiers to fight us."
After half an hour, Huangfusong finally gave the first order.
Several generals around him immediately split up to carry out the order.
Zhang Yu also reached a hillside and looked at the battlefield from a distance.
"Lord, why don't we kill them and sneak attack from the side? Yes, we can defeat the Yellow Turbans along the way." Dian Wei said.
Indeed, at this time, the Yellow Turbans were already fighting against the army. These were all new soldiers, some of whom had only been trained for a few days. If Zhang Yu made a sneak attack like last time, he would definitely be able to severely damage the Yellow Turbans.
But Zhang Yu didn't want to do this, because it wouldn't reflect his own value.
When they are tired of fighting with the official army, or Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang's troops also enter the battlefield, they will fight out by themselves.
Only the officers and soldiers who have suffered heavy losses can show Zhang Yu's value.
This is not only for credit, but also for taking the initiative in the following plans. Zhang Yu doesn't want Huangfusong to completely dominate the battlefield, at least he has to take a large part.
And by then, Zhang Yu can also reduce losses.
The battle lasted for two hours, during which the Yellow Turbans made a crazy attack. Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, who were hiding inside, found an opportunity to attack in a sneak attack. They severely damaged the officers and soldiers and had to pay a relatively high price to block them back.
"It's time for the whole army to attack and eat the enemy's way."
Seeing that the Yellow Turbans were exhausted and their offensive had weakened, and Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang's troops were also involved, Zhang Yu chose this time to attack.
Three thousand cavalry were in front, and about six thousand infantry were behind.
Zhang Yu left Ling Cao to command the infantry, while he, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong, and Zhou Cang led the cavalry to charge ahead.
"Pierce through the middle, surrounded by infantry." Zhang Yu shouted, and the Overlord Halberd had already struck.
This arrangement is to completely eat the yellow scarves all the way.
