Chapter 134: Dong Zhuo’s Defeat (Part 1)

However, after Liu Ye led the army to leave Hebei, Dong Zhuo, who was full of confidence, never paid attention to the miscellaneous army of the Yellow Turbans.

"Hahaha, everyone, drink up this cup, come!" Dong Zhuo raised the wine cup on the desk, covered his lips with his robe sleeve, and drank it down with his neck raised.

"My lord is good at drinking, and my subordinates admire it!" Seeing this, Guo Bang laughed loudly, and also raised the wine jug to drink it dry in one gulp, and the beard around his mouth was wet with the wine.

Dong Zhuo said with satisfaction: "That's right, everyone can drink as much as they want, the yellow turban thieves, how can they compete with my Xiliang iron cavalry, isn't that hitting a stone with an egg?"

"That's right, Liangzhou Dama is rampant all over the world, and the yellow scarf thieves have nothing to fear." The bearded general who spoke was Fan Chou, one of Dong Zhuo's confidantes.

"It's a pity that my nephew didn't come, otherwise it would be a good time to seal his wife's shade." The second armored general on the left row sighed, but his face looked imposing, not as much as Fan Chou Although Huzi is in his thirties, he can vaguely see that he was a handsome man when he was young.

Guo Si chuckled: "I said, Lao Zhang, you are closer to your nephew than your own son. I'm afraid he is not an illegitimate child, right? If you want me to say, your sister-in-law is so beautiful, Lao Zhang, you really don't know how to enjoy yourself."

Zhang Ji looked stunned: "What is Guo Duoru talking about? A certain elder brother passed away early, and before he left, he asked someone to take care of Xiu'er. My nephew is extremely talented, and he is skilled at bowing and horses at a young age. A strong general."

Guo Si was a horse thief in his early years. He was called Guo Duo at that time. Later, he defected to Dong Zhuo and became a general under his account. He hated the name and changed it to Guo Si. However, Li Jue, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and others used to call him Guo Duo.

Dong Zhuo waved his hand: "Okay, Guo Duo and Zhang Ji, you two don't need to quarrel. If your nephew is really brave, he will naturally be able to serve under the general's command in the future and charge forward. Everyone, just drink!"

Dong Zhuo brought the men and horses from Hedong County, plus the Northern Army horses left by Lu Zhi, there were about 15,000 people in total, but Zhang Liang in Guangzong City was really scared by Lu Zhi, so even if Knowing that the Han army had changed their commander, they did not dare to fight lightly, and Dong Zhuo accidentally sent troops to attack the city, but suffered a lot of losses, so Dong Zhuo did not dare to act rashly.

"Qu Yang?"

"That's right, it's Qu Yang!"

Dong Zhuozhi complacently pointed to the map hanging on the wall, one finger originally pointed at Guangzong City, but suddenly moved to Quyang City.

"This thief Zhang Liang is as cowardly as a mouse. He dare not go out of the city to fight our army in the field. Our army's Xiliang cavalry's advantages are completely useless. They are just wasting food and grass in vain."

Dong Zhuo chuckled, "If our army marches southward, and Zhang Bao in Quyang City fights with our army, and two thousand Xiliang iron cavalry clear the way in one go, they will go out in one go, and more than ten thousand northern soldiers will attack after them, even one hundred thousand yellow scarves will be defeated in one battle. .”

Guo Duo frowned, and looked at Li Jue: "Zhiran, what do you say?"

Li Jue, who was frowning and thinking, nodded slowly.

"That's right, Zhang Liang has been scared out of his wits for a long time, and he didn't dare to go out of the city to fight our army. Instead of going on like this, it's better to send troops to the south to fight the Yellow Turban bandits actively, in order to find a fighting opportunity."

Afterwards, Li Jue said slowly: "Besides, I heard that General Huangfu Lang, who is far away in Changsha, has received reinforcements from the imperial court. With Huangfu Yizheng's ability to use troops, it may be difficult for Bo to resist. Zhonglang will conquer the Yellow Turbans, whoever wins the first prize will be rewarded by the emperor, and our army must not miss it."

As soon as Dong Zhuo heard this, his facial features immediately became firm and he made up his mind.

"Okay! We won the first place, and our army will immediately go south to Quyang to defeat the bullshit general."

Dong Zhuo is from Kansai, and the two prefectures of Yongliang and Liangzhou gradually looked down on them as the national power of the Han Dynasty weakened, and they even planned to give up, so that Kansai people were often unable to be reused by the court. Qing is basically from Kanto. As a Kansai native, Dong Zhuo must firmly seize this opportunity to be promoted, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once he misses it, Dong Zhuo, who is nearly fifty years old, doesn't know when he will advance.

With Dong Zhuo's order, the northern army marched to Quyang. Zhang Bao had never fought Dong Zhuo before, so naturally he was not very afraid.

Knowing that Dong Zhuo led the army to arrive, Zhang Bao opened the city gate without fear, and sent 50,000 soldiers to fight Dong Zhuo's army. The two thousand iron cavalry brought over by Lao Chao Hedong County.

Relying on their large number of people, the Yellow Turban Bandits walked out of Quyang City swaggeringly, but it was not Zhang Bao himself who led the army, but Yan Zheng, his general, with a hideous scar across the bridge of his nose, he looked quite like a fierce general .

"Don't be afraid, everyone. All the officers and soldiers will collapse in front of us, and this fat man surnamed Dong is the same."

The 50,000 yellow turban thieves responded listlessly. Their long-term victories against the government and army have made them a little numb.

But Dong Zhuo and the generals under his command couldn't help laughing when they saw the scene in front of them. Dong Zhuo pointed at the loose army formation of fifty thousand yellow scarves with a whip in his hand, and laughed to the left and right: "Haha, look at these bumpkins , they don’t even know how to line up, they’re just a bunch of stragglers.”

Snapped!

The whip was suddenly whipped to the ground, and there was a strong sound, Dong Zhuo's face was solemn.

"All generals obey orders!"

"Li Jue and Guo Si, the two of you each lead a thousand cavalry to charge left and right, and join forces in the midst of the bandit army."

"Here!"

"Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, the two of you lead eight thousand troops and march forward in formation. Once you see the Yellow Turban bandits in disarray, immediately press on and completely defeat the bandits."

"Here!"

Li Jue and Guo Si rode out on horseback, each with a thousand cavalry behind them, and two thousand cavalry galloped out. The yellow turban bandits, who were listless at first, couldn't help being startled when they saw the cavalry galloping and the dusty formation. The few archers among them couldn't hold back and shot the arrows on the bowstring.

However, Li Jue and Guo Si have been traveling across the northwest all year round, and they have long had their own experience in commanding cavalry to charge the formation. Seeing the sparse arrows shot from the Yellow Turban formation, they immediately led two cavalry to divert the left and right, as if two The scimitar parted ways before the central army, and then rushed in suddenly from the left and right flanks of the Yellow Turban Bandits.

boom!

Among Dong Zhuo's 2,000 iron cavalry, many were Qiang people who admired his bravery and generosity. This caused tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves to fall into chaos.

boom!

At this time, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were commanding 8,000 infantry, and they lined up in a tight formation, as if they were one body.
