I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 129

"Withdraw! Withdraw!"

Under Guangzong City, the Han army that besieged Guangzong City retreated again, and the Yellow Turban Army in Guangzong City shouted loudly, building up their momentum for this victory.

Dong Zhuo, who was overseeing the battle a few miles away, had a look of anger, but he was helpless in the end.

This is already the fifth time this month he has played in battle, but he still cannot break through Zhang Jiao. On the contrary, after his own side has experienced several retreats, the morale of the Yellow Turbans in Guangzong has become more and more boosted. This is really great for Dong Zhuo Some losses outweigh the gains.

But Dong Zhuo came to take credit for succeeding Lu Zhi this time.

The former fan Lu Zhi won all the wars against the Yellow Turban, but he made no progress here. This result is enough to make Dong Zhuo feel like he is sitting on pins and needles.

You can't advance, you can't retreat!It's like being tied up and roasting on the fire.

But in fact, not only Dong Zhuo was anxious, but also the high-ranking generals in the Yellow Turban Army were also anxious.

Of course, this is only limited to the high-level Yellow Turbans, and the morale of the Yellow Turbans at the bottom is still available.

The morale of the low-level congregation is high because they have blocked the offensive of the Han army repeatedly recently.

The high-ranking Yellow Turban warriors are worried because their great teacher Zhang Jiao is now seriously ill and has been sick for many days.

It's just that in order to stabilize the morale of the army, this matter has never been publicized. After all, once the news of the great virtuous teacher's serious illness spreads, it may be a devastating blow to the Yellow Turban Army.

The spiritual pillar of the Taiping Taoists is Zhang Jue. The existence of Zhang Jiao is the greatest guarantee for the unity of the Yellow Turbans.

"General Tiangong! The Han army has retreated..."

Zhang Jiao, who had been standing at the top of the city and encouraged the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army with his own existence, came back to his senses only after hearing the words.

At this moment, he was in a trance, with a headache that was about to split, but he just gritted his teeth and stood at the top of the city with all his strength, using himself to boost the morale of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army.

It has to be said that Zhang Jiao's tactics were successful. As long as he himself stood in front of the Yellow Turban Army's formation, it would be like a booster, and it would be injected into the hearts of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers.

The members of the Yellow Turban Church seem to have inexhaustible strength and energy at this moment.

The main force of Guangzong's Yellow Turbans is different from the Yellow Turbans in the Central Plains and Ruying.

The Yellow Turban Army here are all Zhang Jiao's most direct and loyal followers, and they are the most cohesive force. The core strength of the Yellow Turban Army is here.

The Yellow Turbans here will not be divided because of the strategy of the Han army. The Yellow Turbans here are all closely surrounding Zhang Jiao, and they are willing to help Zhang Jiao to build the dream world of Huang Tian regardless of their lives and everything.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous!"

Following the loud shouts of the Yellow Turban soldiers in Guangzong City, Zhang Jiao walked down the city with a smile under the eager eyes.

In today's battle, they won once again!

On the way back to the county office, all the yellow scarves shouted at Zhang Jiao,
"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous!"

And Zhang Jiao just waved his hands to their congregation benevolently and smiled.

Returning to his residence, as soon as he entered the door, he saw that Shicai still had a kind face, the dignified Zhang Jiao tilted his body, and the nine-jointed staff in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

Zhang Jiao himself also fell to the ground.

"General Tiangong!"

"Brother!"

Following Zhang Jiao, several senior generals who entered the county office shouted together.

Zhang Jiao was just holding on. He insisted on presiding over the entire battle with his amazing perseverance, but it also consumed all his energy. At this moment, his whole body was close to collapse, and he didn't even have the strength to take one more step. there is none left.

Zhang Bao hurried forward, lifted Zhang Jiao from the ground, placed him on the bed, and personally diagnosed Zhang Jiao's pulse.

As high-ranking Taoist monarchs of the Taiping Dao, taking the pulse to diagnose diseases is their professional skill, and they don't need to fake their hands to others.

"Brother, I will write another prescription later, ordering someone to find medicine for elder brother to heal, so that elder brother can take care of himself, and he will be fine in three or two days."

Zhang Jiao nodded weakly.

Afterwards, the other high-ranking generals of the Yellow Turban Army went to patrol the city, but the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang stayed in the house.

It wasn't until this time that Zhang Jiao finally took off his disguise, his kind and kind expression disappeared, replaced by a sad expression.

"Brother, time is running out for you, isn't it?"

Zhang Bao opened his mouth, intending to deceive his elder brother, but Zhang Jiao's medical skills are still superior to his own, so he couldn't deceive him at all.

Seeing that Zhang Bao bowed his head and said nothing, Zhang Jiao smiled relievedly: "Don't worry, you won't die for a while, and you can still persevere."

"Brother, take care."

Zhang Jiao shook his head helplessly: "How do you take care of yourself? The armies of Ruying, Yanzhou, and Nanyang are all defeated, and now you and I are fighting alone in Hebei. Brother, I can't eat at this moment, and I can't sleep at night... This is God's will." ?"

Zhang Liang sighed: "The Yan Han's spirit is not exhausted! What a pity, what a pity!"

Zhang Jiao shook his head, and said, "It's not that the Han Dynasty's energy is exhausted, it's also my fault. It's urgent to raise troops, and I don't know how to control the pawns, so that I gradually lose people's hearts."

"Brother, this..."

Zhang Jiao lay on the bed, and said to himself: "I used to travel in the countryside of Tianmo, starving and dying everywhere, corpses lying in the fields, you and my brother scattered all the wealth, distributed food to the poor and refugees, and healed all places with talisman water. The more believers there are, the more we have today's momentum."

"But since the formation of the army, I know that the states are generous, and the soldiers are controlled like bandits. Wherever they go, they burn, kill, loot, and engulf the people. In just a few months, they have lost their hearts and become people who only serve their own selfish desires." Bandit, it's because I didn't educate them well, it's my brother's fault."

Zhang Liang patted Zhang Jiao's hand and comforted him, "Brother, don't blame yourself too much. Many things are not what you want to see. The states are generous, good and bad are mixed. My brother is far away in Hebei. Even if you want to educate them, it is beyond your reach. .”

Zhang Baoyan said: "That's right, at least the congregations under the direct control of our three brothers have been restrained by the elder brother, and they have not done anything harmful to the peace of heaven."

Zhang Jiao sighed, "Where is the world of Huang Tian, ​​where no worries about food and clothing, where everyone is happy?"

When he said this, there was still a tear in the corner of Zhang Jiao's eye.

Zhang Liang knelt beside the bed, looked at Zhang Jiao's unwilling and remorseful face, and couldn't help but bow his head and cry.

It's a pity that my elder brother has practiced medicine for half his life, is proficient in medical skills, and uses talisman water to treat diseases, but when things come to an end, he can't save his own life.

"General, General!"

Outside the hall, a yellow scarf general was calling Zhang Bao in a low voice.

Zhang Bao wiped away the tears on his face, stood up and went outside: "What's the matter?"

"General, the spies report that Zhonglang General Huang Fusong and Zhonglang General Liu Jian of the Han Dynasty have led troops into the border of Jizhou, and are now heading towards Guangzong!"

"Understood." Zhang Bao waved his hand, motioning for the man to go down.

Although he was calm on the face, but in fact his heart was turbulent and he didn't know what to do.

Dong Zhuo is enough to deal with it, and now Huangfusong and Liu Jian are here again.

If these three attack together, it will be extremely difficult for our own side.

what to do?Abandon the city?

But at this time, where should we go?
There is no place for them in the Han territory!

Could it be possible to go beyond the Great Wall?
When Zhang Bao was hesitating in his mind, he suddenly heard Zhang Jiao calling Zhang Bao in a low voice in the room.

"come in."

Zhang Bao straightened his mind, turned around and came to Zhang Jiao's bed.

"What happened?"

Zhang Bao smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing."

"Don't lie to me."

Zhang Bao sighed: "The two armies of Huangfu Song and Liu Jian have already entered Jizhou. It is still difficult for Guangzong to deal with Dong Zhuo all the way. If there are two more armies..."

Zhang Jiao sighed, "Then according to your opinion, what should we do?"

Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang looked at each other.

"Is it better to abandon the city?"

"Where do you abandon the city?"

Zhang Baodao: "Beyond the Great Wall, or Liaodong?"

Zhang Jiao shook his head and said, "There are 10 people here with us, and there are three armies of Han troops at our side like wolves, how can we get away?"

"This one……"

Zhang Liang clasped his hands and said, "I also ask my brother for advice!"

Zhang Jiao straightened up with difficulty, and said: "The current strategy is to stick to it. Although the general Zhonglang on the three sides is leading the army outside, he seems to be in a good position, but in fact he is walking in danger every step of the way, and the whole court is staring at them. , and the emperor of the Han family is a foolish person who is easily swayed by people's words, so Lu Zhi's winning streak was also replaced by the foolish emperor of the Han family?"

Zhang Bao heard the words and said: "What elder brother said is true. I understand. Elder brother intends to stick to it. When the three Zhonglang generals are unable to attack for a long time, the court will criticize them and change generals again. That is our counterattack. Or is it time to withdraw?"

Zhang Jiao nodded weakly and said, "Exactly."

Zhang Liang hesitated and said, "It's just, can we hold on?"

Zhang Jiao stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Liang's shoulder, and said weakly: "We must trust our congregation, and we must also trust our Huang Tian, ​​and think of him as a brother, as long as the brother is still alive, these three Zhonglang will be together." You may not be able to defeat Guangzong, but from tomorrow onwards, I will patrol the city once every three days to boost the morale of the people!"

"But, brother, your body..."

"It's okay, don't spread the news of my serious illness. It's worth using my brother's life to give you a good chance to escape or win!"

"Well..."
