Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast

Chapter 291 Fighting for Their Lives! [4]

"rush!"

"Only by charging forward can we survive!"

"Come on!"

Bo Cai brandished his sword and shouted loudly. The Yellow Turban warriors who had gathered around Bo Cai were the first to respond to his command and rush towards the riverbed, which was more than a meter high.

Led by the Yellow Turban warriors and encouraged by some minor leaders, the Yellow Turban army, which had been in a state of panic for a moment, mustered some morale and charged towards the Trapped Camp led by Gao Shun.

Behind them were congested river channels and pursuers.

He was blocked by Han troops.

It seems that only by charging forward can one survive.

With renewed courage, large numbers of Yellow Turban soldiers charged toward the direction of the Trapped Camp.

Looking at the riverbank.

Standing in the first row, the soldiers of the Trapped Camp, each holding a large shield, were all tall men.

Moreover, the large shield, which is more than half a person tall, has an inverted triangle shape at the bottom.

When you push downwards, part of it is inserted into the soil.

This shield design is more effective at withstanding impacts.

Even a cavalry charge could be stopped.

As the first batch of Yellow Turban soldiers crawled onto the riverbed, before they could even touch the shield wall, rows of powerful crossbowmen from the Vanguard Battalion had already advanced with their crossbow bolts.

The crossbows were mounted on the shields, and a volley of crossbow bolts was fired at the Yellow Turban soldiers who were climbing up.

The powerful crossbows, like sickles cutting grass, neatly shot down a row of Yellow Turban soldiers who were about to climb up.

The second row and the third row followed closely behind.

After three rows of crossbow bolts fired simultaneously, a layer of corpses had already piled up on the riverbed.

It almost filled in the riverbed and the riverbank.

At this moment, the Yellow Turban warriors under Bo Cai's command also rushed to the edge of the riverbed.

Bo Caiben's army of tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers was originally an elite force selected from hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers.

Most of them had weapons, but many lost them while fleeing.

The so-called Yellow Turban Warriors were selected from devout followers of the Way of Peace, and most of them wore bamboo armor, making them even more powerful in battle.

This is the elite among Bo Cai's elite troops.

Stepping over the corpses beneath their feet, these Yellow Turban warriors brandished their weapons and finally surged onto the riverbed.

After three volleys of crossbow bolts, the crossbowmen began to retreat.

When the Yellow Turban warriors crashed into the large shield, a series of muffled thuds echoed.

Because the shield bearers in the first rank of the Trapped Camp carried shields that were too large and too heavy, they held the shields with both hands and did not carry any weapons.

The Yellow Turban warriors charged forward, brandishing their swords and blades, and began thrusting backward over the shields.

Shield bearers began to suffer casualties in an instant.

"Shieldbearer, retreat!"

Gao Shun stood behind the shield bearers and relayed the orders.

The messengers followed suit and shouted in unison.

"Shieldbearer, retreat!"

The command flag was waved, conveying the order to the riverbed further away.

From military commander to platoon leader, to centurion, then to squad leader, and finally to squad leader, the ranks were passed down one by one.

The experienced soldiers remained completely calm.

Compared to the fierce Qiang people and their extremely fast cavalry, the Yellow Turban Army before them was far inferior in terms of combat power, fighting spirit, and weaponry.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call these people farmers.

However, both the Vanguard Battalion and the Vanguard Battalion are professional soldiers.

My usual task is training.

After Gao Shun relayed the order, the shield bearers immediately pulled out their shields from the ground and then turned to the side.

The swordsmen, who were already prepared, held round shields in one hand and straight swords in the other, and ran forward in neat rows.

Then the shields formed rows and rows, and the shields were used to forcefully push the Yellow Turban warriors who had just rushed onto the riverbed downwards.

He pushed forward while brandishing his sharp straight knife.

In an instant, blood gushed forth, splattering everywhere.

Three rows of swordsmen and shieldmen formed a solid battle formation, cutting down the Yellow Turban warriors who charged forward, row after row.

Cao Cao stood on horseback in the distant woods, with Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, and others beside him.

This was not the first time Cao Cao had witnessed the Liangzhou army in battle.

However, this time, Cao Cao only encountered the Liangzhou cavalry led by Lü Bu.

Gao Shun and Qu Yi were not seen.

Right now, watching Gao Shun and Qu Yi fight with only 5,000 troops, it's amazing how they can keep orders and transmit military commands flawlessly.

The fact that the troops under the command of the two generals could coordinate so closely was astonishing.

Cao Cao was speechless.

"Ziyi's cavalry broke through enemy lines with unparalleled speed and swiftness, and his infantry were as unshakeable as mountains."

"It's simply... simply invincible."

"Let alone these Yellow Turban rebels, even the Five Schools of the Northern Army, the Imperial Guards, or the Youzhou Army would be no match for Ziyi's forces," Cao Cao sighed.

Cao Ren, Xiahou Yuan, and the others standing to the side all nodded in agreement.

"Ziyi has only been in Liang for a year, yet he already has such a strong army under his command. What will it be like in three to five years?"

Cao Cao dared not imagine how powerful the Liangzhou army would become in three to five years.

If three to five years had passed, and Duan Yu had given an order in Liangzhou, would he have conquered the world on horseback?

If Duan Yu really intends to conquer the world, is there anyone within the Han Dynasty who can stop him?

Suddenly, the scene from that time appeared in Cao Cao's mind.

Duan Yu led the way, followed by a group of fierce generals and tens of thousands of Liangzhou horses.

Black banners filled the sky, black armor was like dark clouds, and the weapons in their hands reflected a cold glint.

If that day ever comes...

So what is the Yellow Turban Rebellion?

Who in the world can stop Duan Yu?

The Eight Passes of Luoyang?

It will probably vanish in an instant.

Upon realizing this, Cao Cao was suddenly taken aback.

Then he shook his head vigorously.

"Ziyi wouldn't do that, would he?"

In the distance, the situation on the battlefield took a sharp turn for the worse.

Bo Cai watched as the Yellow Turban warriors who had just rushed onto the riverbed were instantly suppressed.

The stream behind us was already stained red.

"Heaven helps me, protects the Great Dao, and my great and wise teacher bestows upon me divine power!"

Bo Cai stood on the carriage, clasped his hands together, and roared to the sky.

When the Yellow Turban warriors beside Bo Cai saw this, they all put their hands together and prayed to the heavens.

"Heaven helps me, protects the Great Dao, and my great and wise teacher bestows upon me divine power!"

"Heaven helps me, protects the Great Dao, and my great and wise teacher bestows upon me divine power!"

The shouts instantly resonated with the Taiping Dao followers in the river.

At this moment, everyone craned their necks and roared at the sky.

It's certain that Zhang Jiao wouldn't unleash his divine power.

But these roars are a testament to the yearning for life.

It can also unleash the body's last remaining potential.

"Humph."

Qu Yi snorted coldly: "What kind of divine power is this? It can't even compare to the powerful crossbows of Liangzhou?"

"Crossbow formation, three-round burst! Pack them all up in the riverbed!"

The Yellow Turban Army in the river channel mustered their last bit of morale and began their charge.

Meanwhile, the cold crossbow bolts on the riverbed were aimed at the Yellow Turban army charging forward.

..........

East of the Xun River.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, along with four thousand cavalrymen from the five Northern Army Schools and the Yueqi School, were in a frantic pursuit from behind.

However, there were too many defeated Yellow Turban soldiers along the way.

As a result, the two of them couldn't get any fast at all.

Fortunately, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun ordered Sun Jian, the most fierce commander of the Zuo Jun, to lead 500 cavalry to attack first and catch up with Bo Caide's rear guard.

Sun Jian, leading 500 cavalry, ignored the routed troops along the way and focused only on pursuing Bo Caide's army.

However, when Sun Jian finally caught up with them on the east bank of the Xun River...

He was completely dumbfounded when he saw an army suddenly appear out of nowhere, blocking the other side of the riverbank and suppressing the Yellow Turban rebels in the river.
