244-245: Destroy the Bu Ji and kill Zhang Jiao, and the birds are all bowed

The demise of the Yellow Turban Army of Yingchuan was lifted the biggest crisis of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In June of the game, the Eastern Han Dynasty immediately adjusted its military deployment. It transferred the NPC Central Army General Huangfu Song to the eastern front to suppress the Bu Yi Yellow Turban Army in the East County of Gunzhou; it transferred the NPC Central Army General Zhu Jun to Nanyang of Jingzhou to suppress Zhang Mancheng the Yellow Turban Army.

At this time, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi, the three main forces, fought against the three main forces of the Yellow Turban Army in the east, north and south directions at the same time. Among them, Huangfu Song's opponent Bu Yi was the weakest and the most relaxed. Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi's opponent Zhang Mancheng and Zhang Jiao were quite strong and the battle was very difficult.

These three battlefields have also become the most intense battle between the imperialists and the Yellow Turban players. At least tens of millions of players from both sides have been involved in this battle.

Zhan Xiaobai has now become Huangfu Song's No. 1 adviser and has made special suggestions.

In fact, with Huangfu Song's combat level, Bu Jiye is also relaxed, and usually there is no need for Zhan Xiaobai to come up with an idea. The only thing to consider is the "accidental interference" of the Yellow Turban players. As long as the Yellow Turban players are not allowed to interfere, Huangfu Song and Bu Jiye is also reasonable. Zhan Xiaobai's idea is specifically targeted at the Yellow Turban players.

In mid-July, Huangfu Song advanced to the East County.

Huangfu Song came with the defeated Bo Cai army and swept the reputation of the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou and launched a large-scale expedition to attack the Yellow Turbans in Dongjun, which was shocked Bu Ji. Bu Ji had already attacked Fan County and was trying to attack Puyang. Huangfu Song's army was immediately scared when he advanced to Dongjun. Bu Ji knew his strength. His army was far less powerful than Bo Cai. How could he resist the imperial court's suppression of the army?

The Yellow Turban players in Dongjun also knew this. Without saying hello, they began to act and mobilized a large number of hundreds of troops to desperately delay Huangfu Song's advance, causing trouble, sneak attacks, setting fires, pretending to be a ghost, digging traps along the way, and scattering batons on the grass. As long as they can think of it, they can do any means. This tactic has a famous name - guerrilla warfare, or called sparrow warfare.

This tactic requires not much manpower, but it will definitely cause peace 24 hours a day without a moment of peace, reduce the speed of the enemy's march and be depressed. If this continues, the army will suffer a great loss when we arrive in Dongjun exhausted.

Huangfu Song had a headache. He was from a regular army and learned the orthodox tactics. Even if he used fraud, he was still upright military tricks. However, for this almost rogue tactic, the NPC officers and soldiers were unable to defend against such almost rogue tactics, and they kept hurting personnel and their speed of travel was greatly delayed.

Huangfu Song asked Zhan Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, the enemy's harassment is hard to guard against. What do you think?"

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and said, "Students dare not boast about themselves in front of the teacher, the teacher must have a solution."

Huangfu Song stroked his feet and said, "There is indeed a countermeasure. The simplest countermeasure is to capture the horse first, advance quickly, and attack the thief's nest. In this way, the enemy's harassment effect is limited. However, advancing quickly can easily get into ambush."

Zhan Xiaobai thought about it and found that the mine-clearing work was easy to solve, and said, "Just leave this task to students."

Then, the imperial party players led by Zhan Xiaobai and the filial and honest players began to fight back, arranging a large number of soldiers and troops to clear obstacles along the way in advance. They pushed away all the traps along the way like bulldozers, and no traps could escape the eyes of the imperial players.

They also built a wide defense circle around Huangfu Song's 30,000 army to resist the frequent harassment tactics of Yellow Turban players. In this way, it became a contest between Yellow Turban players and court players, which had little to do with the NPC army.

With the close cooperation of all the imperial players, the 20,000 NPC army of the imperial court greatly increased its marching speed, and advanced very smoothly, and quickly advanced into the eastern county.

In early August, Huangfu Song's army quickly advanced to Fan County, Dongjun.

At this time, Bu Ji made a decision that was unstoppable to all players - he wanted to lead the 100,000 NPC Yellow Turban Army in Cangtingjin, ten miles away from Fan County, to fight against Huangfu Song's army for a life and death.

Bu Ji was very heroic and had the courage and courage of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu in the early Han Dynasty. However, the result was completely opposite to Xiang Yu.

All the players knew the ending. Bu Ji was defeated in Kuratengjin, and Bu Ji himself was even captured alive. However, no one could change the decision made by the Yellow Turban NPC leader.

Hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban players watching the game in Dongjun could not stop it, and looked sadly at the main force of the Yellow Turban Army in Dongjun that was about to be destroyed and set up a large army in Kuratengjin.

The imperial players will not stop them.

Of course, Huangfu Song would not refuse such frontal combat. The combat effectiveness of the Northern Army can be fully reflected in this frontal combat.

A decisive battle broke out.

The 20,000 Northern Army of the court, the garrison, infantry, Yue cavalry, Changshui, and shooting sound were all the most elite field corps of the Eastern Han Dynasty court. They all had high-level elite troops, heavy cavalry, light cavalry, infantry, and longbow soldiers, forming the closest killing formation, and squeezed the 100,000 ragged yellow turbans with the sound of rumbling iron hooves.

Not everyone can fight a battle with his back. If he wins, he will be happy. If he loses, he will all go down the river. Even if Xiang Yu is brave, he must be backed by the elite soldiers of Jiangdong.

The 100,000 Yellow Turban farmers carrying hoes and shovels are far from being matched by the 20,000 Northern Army, both in terms of equipment and combat quality. The outcome of the battle with one's back is conceivable.

In Nanyang, Zhang Mancheng died early.

Before Zhu Ye arrived at the Nanyang battlefield, Zhang Mancheng was killed by Nanyang prefect Qin Jie. After Zhang Mancheng died in battle, his subordinates, the Yellow Turban Army, elected Zhao Hong as commander and conquered Wancheng, with more than 200,000 troops.

Zhu Jun and Sun Jian led a main force of the Han army to Wancheng, and together with the imperial camps of various counties in Jingzhou and Nanyang, besieged Wancheng where Zhao Hong's troops were located. Soon, Zhao Hong died in battle, and Han Zhong succeeded as the commander of the Yellow Turban Army. He held on for nearly three months.

Seeing that the strong attack was not easy to work, Zhu Yan pretended to withdraw the siege and deceived the rebels, secretly deployed ambushing troops, and waited for an opportunity to attack. The rebels lacked experience and were trapped in the city to pursue them. As a result, they were ambushed in the middle of the journey and suffered heavy losses. Commander Han Zhong surrendered and was killed. The remaining troops of the Yellow Turban Army retreated to Wancheng under the leadership of Sun Xia, but due to the disparity in the number of people, they could not defend them. They retreated from Wancheng and retreated to Jingshan, Xi'e.

When Zhu Ye was fighting with Han Zhong, Huangfu Song led his army to Dongjun. The attack was very easy. In the battle of Cangting, he wiped out the Yellow Turban Army Bu Yi's troops, captured Bu Ji alive, and beheaded more than 70,000 NPC Yellow Turban soldiers.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were both relatively smooth.

The most unlucky one was Lu Zhi. He led the 50,000 army of 50,000 troops and the 150,000 elite Yellow Turban boss Zhang Jiao in Guangzong, Jizhou, and there was no winner. He had to adopt the tactic of siege but no success, intending to waste Zhang Jiao to death.

When Liu Bei heard that the teacher was fighting with Zhang Jiao, he immediately took his two brothers Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and the five hundred soldiers from the headquarters to help. However, Liu Bei and the three brothers were helpless with the Yellow Turban boss Zhang Jiao and could not help.

Lu Zhi asked Liu Bei to go to Yingchuan to help Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun attack Bo Cai. Liu, Guan and Zhang arrived in Yingchuan, and they heard the shouts of killing and the flames soared into the sky. But when their troops arrived, Bo Cai's army had already disintegrated.

Huangfu Song couldn't use them, so he asked them to go back and help Lu Zhi fight Zhang Jiao. Liu Guanzhang returned the same way. When he arrived in Jizhou, he met the prison car that imprisoned Lu Zhi on the way. On the way, Zuo Feng, the eunuch of the little yellow gate, inspected Lu Zhijun and sought bribes from Lu Zhi, but Lu Zhi refused. Zuo Feng slandered Lu Zhi to the court to delay military operations. The emperor was furious and put Lu Zhi in prison and sent Dong Zhuo to replace Lu Zhi to attack Zhang Jiao.

When Liu Bei and the three brothers returned to Jizhou, it was when Lu Zhi was imprisoned and Dong Zhuo replaced Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi was demoted because he had been working too long and had no military achievements. Of course, Dong Zhuo had to learn from his lessons and launched an attack as soon as he arrived at the battlefield. Unfortunately, he was not lucky and hit Zhang Jiao's hard nails. Zhang Jiao beat him up and fled.

Liu Bei lost Lu Zhi as his backer and planned to return to his hometown in Zhuo County. Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo was defeated by Zhang Jiao on the way. Liu Bei's three brothers took the opportunity to save the life of the General of the Central Army Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo looked down on his identity and ridiculed him. Liu Bei and the other two were angry and surrendered to the General of the Central Army Zhu Junjun overnight.

Dong Zhuo was defeated in the battle against Zhang Jiao. Emperor Ling was furious and took office as the General of the Central Army and defeated the army.

At the end of August, Huangfu Song defeated the Yellow Turban Bu Ji army in Cangtingjin, and his reputation once again boosted, and the government and the country were very excited.

Seeing that Dong Zhuo could not destroy Zhang Jiao, the Lingdi Sect immediately sent Huangfu Song, the general who won the battles and defeated Huang, to take over as the commander of the northern army, to Jizhou to attack Zhang Jiao, and to kill the largest main force of the Yellow Turbans.

Huangfu Song rushed to Jizhou, and Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, died of illness.

The death of this Yellow Turban super boss made the Yellow Turban camp's army shake. Without this Yellow Turban super leader, the Yellow Turban camp's leader suddenly lost its head and the hearts of the people were disintegrated. Zhang Jiao's younger brother, commander of the rest of the army, resisted Huangfu Song's army, and was defeated by Huangfu Song's seven consecutive victories, beheaded Zhang Liang Yu Guangzong, and 50,000 Yellow Turbans jumped into the river to commit suicide. He killed Zhang Bao in Quyang and killed more than 100,000 prisoners. In addition, nearly one million Yellow Turban players were destroyed in the battle with the imperial players.

The main force of the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou was wiped out in one fell swoop. For a time, the reputation of the General Huangfu Song of the Central Army was famous all over the world.

Zhan Xiaobai followed Huangfu Song and did not do anything significant. He just established some friendship with Cao Cao, who was also a subordinate of Huangfu Song. Cao Cao knew that he was now a disciple of Huangfu Song and set fire to the mastermind of Bo Caijun, so he did not dare to be disrespectful. He usually drank, chatted, talked about ambitions, and so on.

At the same time, Zhu Jun's army in the south destroyed Sun Xia's army and beheaded hundreds of thousands of places, and the surrender was invincible. Along the Nanyang road, more than ten counties were pacified.

In October, the main forces of the Yellow Turban Army were completely destroyed, and the seven or eight months of war to fight against the Yellow Turbans finally came to an end. The court attacked the army from all walks of life and returned to the capital. The court was full of joy, and Emperor Ling was very happy and planned to enthrone the ministers who made contributions to the Yellow Turbans this time.

After Zhan Xiaobai returned to Luoyang, he immediately found Bailier Yu, the little eunuch in the palace to see if he knew the inside story of the reward. Bailier Yu is now in the eunuch Zhang Rang's side, and knows some inside story.

The young eunuch Bailier Yu said: "The rewards for official positions below the fourth rank are all Eunuch Zhang and Eunuch Zhao. Eunuch Zhang said that the emperor means to reward officials of all ranks according to the merits. However, there are special cases, that is, whether they are loyal to the court, or not, they are not loyal to the court. In particular, they are not loyal to the offerings. In other words, those who have no money to provide to the emperor will be rewarded with the following official positions. Those who are loyal and rich to provide to the emperor will be rewarded with genuine official positions.

In other words, if a person's merits reach the sixth grade, but does not offer sacrifices, he will only be rewarded from the sixth grade. If he is the sixth grade, he will be offered at a high price of ten times, he will be offered at a fifth grade. The rewards for official positions in the court will be announced in two days. If Brother Xiaobai wants to get a better official position, he will hurry up."

Zhan Xiaobai thought about it and found that his current merits are enough for the fifth-rank official position. If he offered sacrifices normally, he would be the fifth-rank official. If he offered sacrifices ten times, he would be the fourth-rank official, and if he did not offer sacrifices, he would be reduced to the fifth-rank official. After the Yellow Turbans were wiped out, there would be few opportunities to make contributions in the short term, so it would be best to spend some money to get the fifth-rank official this time.

"How much does it cost for the fifth-grade rank?"

Bailier Yu counted carefully: "It's like this, 1 tael of the ninth grade, 20 taels of the eighth grade, 20 taels of the seventh grade, 200 taels of silver, 1500 taels of silver, 5000 taels of silver in the fifth grade, 5000 taels of silver in the fourth grade."

Zhan Xiaobai was amazed at the 5th grade, and the price was actually 5,000 taels, which was simply a devour.

“Where is the place to offer?”

"Xiyuan. The emperor asked Eunuch Zhang to personally send someone to set up some places there to collect money. Not only Luoyang, but also various other cities have special places to collect money. Those who have no money to offer their money must be given a lower level and rewarded with official positions."

Zhan Xiaobai rolled his eyes. The Ling Emperor's method of making money was ruthless and forced to convince him. He immediately returned to the inn, took out the 5,000 guan of copper coins he had collected during this period, exchanged them into silver at a large money house in Luoyang, and then came to the West Garden to hand them over to the eunuch.

In the past five months, he had only collected 8,000 guan of copper coins on the battlefield. After offering them, a large amount of money was lost, leaving only 3,000 guan.

Two days later, the court awarded the reward.

"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered: All soldiers from all walks of life to attack the Yellow Turban rebels, and made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, and their contributions were significant. The court rewarded them according to the merits of the soldiers and their performance in fighting against the thieves.

All officers and officers are rewarded as follows:

1. He was awarded the title of the fourth-rank Left General Huangfu Song as the first-rank Left General, and was the governor of Jizhou.

2. He was awarded the title of the fourth-rank Right Clan General Zhu Jun as the first-rank Right Cycling General, and was the Yin of Henan.

3. Added the seventh-rank tooth goalkeeper Xiaobai, and was the fifth-rank Pinglu Zhonglang General.

4. He was awarded the title of the seventh-rank cavalry commander Cao Cao as the fifth-rank Jinan Prime Minister.

5. He was awarded the title of Sima Sun Jian, a member of the Seventh-rank Army, as the Sima of the Sixth-rank Army.

6. He was awarded the title of the seventh-rank goalkeeper and the peerless hero, and was the sixth-rank Pinglu Camp.

7. Added the Silent Sword of the Seventh-Grade Goalkeeper and was the Sixth-Grade Pinglu Camp Captain.

......

100000. Added xxxx, which is the length of the eighth grade song.

After a million people, if they are not included in this list, the reward will remain."

A total of more than 10 million players have won official positions in the court between the tenth and fifth grades, and the official positions have been awarded.

Among the players, Zhan Xiaobai has the highest official position and has won the position of General Pinglu Zhonglang.

The other players from the court, the peerless hero, the silent sword, the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, Xiaoye... and more than 600 players obtained the position of the official position of the sixth-rank Pinglu school lieutenant. More than 9,000 players obtained the position of the official position of the seventh-rank official position. About 150,000 players obtained the position of the official position of the eighth-rank official position. About 2 million players obtained the position of the ninth-rank official position. About 10 million players obtained the position of the tenth-rank official position.

Of course, in addition to official positions, there are also material rewards.

"The fifth rank: 1 small town drawing, 1 middle town drawing, and 1 big town drawing. The emperor gave him one grand craftsman, three masters, and several money and silk. The fifth rank Pinglu Zhonglang general has a salary of 2,000 stones per year (the system automatically distributes 166.70 stones per month). This official position is equal to the prefect of the fifth rank county, and military operations are not subject to the prefect of the prefect of the county. They are directly controlled by the Guanglu Xun of the imperial court.

From the fifth grade: no.

The sixth rank: 1 small town drawing, 1 middle town drawing, several money and silk. The sixth rank Pinglu school lieutenant's salary is 1,000 stone per year (the system automatically distributes 88.80 stone per month). Military operations are controlled by the county magistrate.

From the sixth rank: 1 small town drawing, several money and silk. From the sixth rank, the salary of the lieutenant of the lieutenant was 800 stone per year (the system automatically distributed 66.70 stones per month). Military operations were controlled by the county magistrates.

The seventh rank: 1 drawing of the village, some money and silk, no salary for the court.

From the seventh rank: 1 Nakamura drawing, some money and silk, no court salary.

The eighth grade: 1 small village drawing.

From the eighth rank: some money and silk."

Zhan Xiaobai is a fifth-rank official and directly obtained the upgrade drawings of the Sanfen Town. This made him overjoyed. Xiaobai Village can finally be upgraded to a town. And as long as various conditions are met, it can be quickly upgraded from a small town to a large town level.
