Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Gao Jin led 5,000 men and rushed to Maoyang day and night. They encountered a cavalry attack on the way, and most of the 5,000 men were killed or wounded before they reached Maoyang City.

At this time, he didn't know that he had been deceived by Sun Guang, and he led the remaining soldiers to flee back to Gushi in a panic. As soon as he arrived at the foot of the city, he was greeted by a volley of arrows and stones, and the remaining soldiers were smashed to pieces. Only then did he realize that he had been deceived, and he started cursing at the foot of the city.

But it was no use cursing until his throat was hoarse. Not only did he lose Gushi, but he also lost the lives of thousands of soldiers. In the end, he had to flee to the nearest Xincai City with a few hundred people.

The same drama was also being played out in Pingyu and Xincai. Xincai was also easily deceived, but the team heading to Pingyu was not so lucky.

The commander of Pingyu was the young man named Guan Hai who had almost wiped out Wang Yun's two thousand cavalrymen. He was a very cautious person and did not rush to open the city gate no matter how life and death the person asking for help said and how urgent the situation was.

Guan Hai first asked them to retreat a mile, and then he personally led a team of people to the city gate. He called the leader to come forward, and in the light of the fire, he recognized that this was Chen Kui, the deputy of Sun Guang.

"Tell me in detail about the ambush you encountered."

Chen Kui said anxiously, "This is not the time to talk about this. The important thing is to quickly bring people to rescue Commander Qu."

"How can we save you if you don't explain clearly? What if you are ambushed?" Guan Hai stared at Chen Kui with burning eyes.

Chen Kui was getting nervous because of being looked at, and he couldn't help complaining about Sun Guang in his heart. He chose a city that was easy to deceive and left the most difficult one to himself. Everyone knew that Guan Hai was the most steady guy, and it would not be easy to deceive him.

Originally, he thought that if he couldn't deceive them, he would bring these hundreds of officers and soldiers into the city and kill them. At that time, he would still be a general of the Yellow Turban Army. However, he didn't expect that Guan Hai would not let him enter the city at all.

He could feel that the crossbows hidden in the sleeves of several people behind him were pointed at him. If he had any ill intentions, he would be shot into a honeycomb immediately.

Chen Kui suppressed his nervousness and repeated the lines he had memorized in advance.

As Guan Hai listened, he looked at Chen Kui. He saw burn marks on his body and a smoky smell. He looked behind him and saw that the clothes and hair of the hundreds of soldiers had burnt areas, but there seemed to be no flaws.

Suddenly, his eyes swept over a soldier's feet.

There was no trace of black ash on the worn shoes with two thumbs exposed except for some yellow soil.

He suddenly became alert, took a few steps closer, and glanced at the other soldiers' feet without leaving a trace.

Guan Hai's face flashed with understanding. He turned and whispered a few words to his personal guards. Then he said to Chen Kui calmly, "Brother, you have worked hard. Come with me into the city. I will immediately mobilize the troops to rescue the general. I wonder how many troops I should take with me?"

Chen Kui breathed a sigh of relief. "Thirty thousand, just to level Yingyang." He said it with great pride.

This was the line changed by Chen Kui himself. Pingyu had more than 40,000 defenders, and it was impossible to deceive them by deception. Wang Yun's goal was to let these people sneak into the city to serve as internal support.

However, Chen Kui felt that this was too slow. He was eager to make a contribution, so he arbitrarily imitated Sun Guang's routine and wanted to capture the city in one fell swoop.

Thirty thousand? Guan Hai became more and more certain that these people had surrendered to the government. He sneered in his heart, but replied, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

After everyone entered the city, Guan Hai said again: "Take these brothers to eat and rest first, I will go to check the troops."

Seeing that he had been fooled, Chen Kui was in a good mood. He just wanted to wait for Guan Hai to lead his men out of the city, and then kill them all while everyone was asleep at night. Then his mission would be completed, and he would be able to receive an imperial decree and become an official.

After running all the way, Chen Kui was indeed hungry, so he led his subordinates and followed Guan Hai's personal soldiers to the kitchen.

When they came out after eating and drinking, they saw rows of archers surrounding them, and Guan Hai was looking at him with cold eyes.

Chen Kui was horrified, but he feigned composure and shouted, "Guan Hai, what are you doing? You don't want to save the commander, but you want to massacre your own brothers. Are you planning a rebellion?"

Guan Hai snorted coldly, "Brother? Bringing soldiers to kill your own brother?"

"You...what nonsense are you talking about? What officers and soldiers? These are our brothers." Chen Kui could not speak clearly.

"You keep talking even when you are about to die."

Guan Hai was too lazy to talk nonsense and just waved his hand.

"Fire arrows!"

At once, thousands of arrows were fired, and the people standing in the front row were instantly pierced like big hedgehogs. The officers and soldiers in the back disguised as moth thieves used the corpses as shields and rushed forward to fight for a while, but in the end they all died.

It was already September. Huangfu Song had won a great victory over the Yellow Turbans in Chen State. He was originally going to march south to join forces with Wang Yun and others. However, Lu Zhi, who had gone to Jizhou to quell the rebellion, was framed by the eunuchs and taken back to Beijing. Emperor Ling then sent Dong Zhuo to replace him, but Dong Zhuo also failed to achieve any success, so Huangfu Song was transferred to Jizhou to quell the rebellion again.

Now the war situation in Yuzhou has improved. A few days ago, Cao Cao sent a victory report from the southwest, and he has taken Yang'an, Beiyichun, Ancheng, Shenyang and other counties. After Wang Yun cheated Gushi and Xincai, he also took back the three counties. Now only Pingyu and several counties in the south are still occupied by the Yellow Turbans, so it doesn't matter much if Huangfu Song doesn't come.

Wang Yun and Cao Cao led their troops to besiege Pingyu. After several days of hard fighting, nearly a thousand officers and soldiers were killed or wounded, but Pingyu was still not recaptured.

There was really no other way, so Wang Yun thought of his daughter who was good at coming up with ideas, and came to Zhang Mo for advice.

Although Zhang Mo had never fought in a war, she knew that in ancient times, if the attacking party did not have several times more troops than the opposing party, it would be difficult to capture the city by frontal attack. The combined forces of Wang Yun and Boss Cao, plus all the surrendered soldiers and county soldiers, had only more than 20,000 people, while there were still 30,000 to 40,000 bandits in Pingyu City.

Moreover... the Pingyu garrison commander is not like Bo Cai and Peng Tuo. The officers and soldiers have suffered losses at his hands twice. Even Boss Cao, who has a sharp brain, can't do anything about it. What tricks can she have?

"Is there really no way to break the city?"

Wang Yun still did not give up and continued to ask questions. Cao Cao also looked at her expectantly. In the past few days, after listening to Che Hu's narration about the suppression of bandits in Runan, he admired this little girl more and more. He only regretted that he did not recognize her first.

"There's really no way to attack the city, but if my godfather is willing to wait for half a month, perhaps the chances of breaking the city will be much greater." Zhang Mo said.

It won't be long before Zhang Jue dies of illness. Zhang Mo had witnessed how fanatical his followers were when they were in Yangdi. As soon as he died, the morale of the Yellow Turbans would plummet. In addition, the fierce Huangfu Song had won victories all the way to the north, killing Zhang Liang, beheading Zhang Bao, opening Zhang Jue's coffin and stabbing his corpse, and building a mausoleum with the corpses of 100,000 Yellow Turbans, which frightened the Yellow Turbans.

Based on these historical facts, Zhang Mo made such conservative suggestions.

Thinking of the girl's profound words earlier, Cao Cao thought she had some new plan and asked hurriedly, "What do you mean? Why do we have to wait another half month?"

Why? Zhang Mo didn't know how to explain it. She couldn't tell him that she knew everything about the past 2,000 years and the future 1,800 years.

She said casually, "Hasn't General Huangfu gone to Jizhou? He's so powerful, he'll surely be able to defeat the three Zhang Jiao brothers quickly. Wouldn't that be a bolt from the blue for the Moth Bandits? Their morale will be broken, and perhaps they can be recruited."

Is that so? The two were skeptical, but with no better solution, they had no choice but to surround the enemy without attacking.

Sure enough, before half a month had passed, news came from the north that Zhang Jue had died of illness. This time it was not a rumor, but he had really died of illness. This news was definitely a fatal blow to the Yellow Turbans. The great and virtuous general Tian Gong was dead, and the war in the north was extremely unsuccessful. Since the arrival of Wang Yun and Cao Cao, Yuzhou had also suffered successive defeats. Many people were a little discouraged and felt that the future was bleak.

The government posted a notice of surrender at the right time. Within a few days, some people led their troops to surrender. Those who were unwilling to surrender but dared not to hold on simply fled to the mountains and became bandits. The remaining part planned to defend the city to the death, but they were already unable to do so alone. Half a month later, the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Yuzhou was quelled.
