Chapter 659: 1 Battle to Defeat the Yellow Turbans

As the heavy horn of the Yellow Turban Army camp sounded again, the third attack that had been prepared for a long time began.

Standing on the city wall, Zong Yu panted and said to Wu Anguo beside him: "Captain, did this Yellow Turban thief take the wrong medicine today? This is already the third round of attack. Captain, when will General Pingdong's army arrive? I estimate that the county soldiers in Ju County can't hold on for long." As his old boss, Zong Yu still respected Wu Anguo very much, so he still called Wu Anguo by the name he used when he was Wu Anguo's subordinate.

Wu Anguo stood on the city tower, looking at the Yellow Turban Army slowly approaching the city, and said: "Captain Zong, don't worry, my master's troops have already arrived in Ju County, but it's not time for the army to attack yet."

Wu Anguo was not wrong. Huangfu Chaobo had indeed led the army to the vicinity of Ju County, but it was not time to attack yet.

Under the careful arrangement of Xu Shu and Sun Qian, more than 100,000 players were arranged around the Yellow Turban Army camp. Their role was to attack the Yellow Turban Army camp with all their strength after receiving the order to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Yellow Turban Army's main force. Once the main force of the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos, Zhao Yun and other generals would lead the army to directly attack the main force of the Yellow Turban Army to achieve the goal of winning the battle.

When the third round of attack was deadlocked, Xu Shu thought that the time had come, and then the order to attack was passed to the 100,000 players behind.

In less than a moment, smoke and dust rose everywhere in the Yellow Turban camp a few miles away. This situation frightened the Yellow Turban Army soldiers who were attacking the city. You know, the camp behind was full of the families of these soldiers. Not only the soldiers were frightened, but also the generals of Guan Hai in the central army were frightened.

Seeing the unusual movement behind, Guan Hai and the leaders tried their best to appease the soldiers, and on the other hand, they immediately sent people back to the camp to see what happened.

Who knew that the people sent out would soon return, and bring news that made Guan Hai and others furious. The camp was attacked by the court army, with hundreds of thousands of people. The tens of thousands of soldiers left behind could not resist and were now attacked into the camp. Hearing this news, countless people could not stay.

So soon someone led his personal guards to retreat and prepare to return to the camp. Soon this unknown retreat affected the Yellow Turban soldiers who were attacking the city, and then more and more soldiers who did not know the truth joined the retreat.

At this time, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in the south of the army. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei led more than 10,000 cavalrymen to appear in front of the Yellow Turban Army. The sound of tens of thousands of iron hooves hitting the ground made the Yellow Turban soldiers panic. As the cavalry, led by several generals, rushed into the Yellow Turban soldiers without hindrance, the overwhelming force made the Yellow Turban soldiers dare not step forward to stop them, even if the generals at all levels shouted, it was useless.

On October 16, the third year of the Han Dynasty, General Pingdong Huangfu Chaobo led 150,000 troops to rush to Ju County at night. While Guan Hai's army was attacking the city, he raided the Yellow Turban Army's central army, captured Guan Hai alive, and forced the Yellow Turban Army to surrender. In this battle, the million-strong Yellow Turban Army, except for the 200,000 troops sent to attack the cities around Ju County, the 800,000 troops besieging Ju County suffered more than 100,000 casualties, nearly 100,000 escaped, and the remaining 600,000 were captured.

Afterwards, Huangfu Chaobo was invited into the city by Kong Jun, and his army cooperated with the Beihai County soldiers and players to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Beihai. Finally, more than 100,000 troops were captured.

At this point, the million-strong Yellow Turban Army besieging Beihai was completely destroyed. According to the prior agreement, Huangfu Chaobo received nearly 400,000 captured Yellow Turbans, with Huangchao Hegemony and Ye Lai Xiang each receiving 100,000. The remaining nearly 100,000 people were divided up by the lord players participating in the war in Qingzhou. At this point, the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Qingzhou was basically settled.

Considering that hundreds of thousands of people needed to be transported back to Luoyang, it was definitely impossible to take the land route. Therefore, after Huangfu Chaobo discussed with Kong Rong, Huangfu Chaobo simply bought an NPC town called Shuanghe Town at the estuary of the Mihe River and the Bailang River in his private name to temporarily accommodate the 400,000 Yellow Turban soldiers and their families.

Of course, Huangfu Chaobo's move was not a spur-of-the-moment move, but had already been discussed. This would be a point set up by Huangfu Chaobo in Qingzhou. Not only that, it would also be the midpoint station for water transportation between Luoyang and Longhua.

After obtaining Shuanghe Town, Huangfu Chaobo quickly upgraded Shuanghe Town to a small city level within a few days, and then appointed Zhang Yi as the deputy city lord to be responsible for the internal affairs of the city.

At the same time, he will be responsible for the communication with Kong Rong in the future, and the navy led by Jiang Qin will also be arranged to stay in this city, and handed over to Jiang Qin's brother Jiang Pei to command, while Meng Gang was appointed as the captain, and the newly surrendered Guan Hai was appointed as the deputy general, responsible for all the troops in Shuanghe together with Meng Gang.

At the same time, in order to strengthen the defense, Huangfu Chaobo recruited 5,000 soldiers from the Yellow Turban captives, mixed them with the soldiers of the Left School, and left a school of soldiers in Shuanghe City. Of course, in addition to a school of soldiers, Huangfu Chaobo also organized two guards. In this way, Shuanghe City has a school of soldiers, two guards, and a navy, which is nearly 10,000 soldiers.

Kong Rong was not unaware of Huangfu Chaobo's actions, but he turned a blind eye. In his opinion, the attack of a million Yellow Turbans has made him feel scared, and having a strong ally by his side can make him feel more secure.

After learning that Shuanghe Town was upgraded to a small city, Kong Rong not only did not object, but sent someone to send a letter of appointment, appointing Zhang Yi as the magistrate of Shuanghe County, and placing dozens of villages and towns around Shuanghe City under the jurisdiction of Shuanghe, while exempting Shuanghe City from county-level taxes. After seeing this appointment, Huangfu Chaobo immediately went to Ju County with Zhang Yi to thank Kong Rong with dozens of pots of Luoshen wine and other gifts.

After arranging the affairs of Shuanghe City, Huangfu Chaobo did not stay in Qingzhou for long, but was directly returned to Luoyang by Jiang Qin's navy. As for the affairs of Shuanghe, they were handed over to Zhang Zan and others to deal with, and the 400,000 people were handed over to Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's navy for transportation.

When Huangfu Chaobo led his army back to Luoyang, it was already mid-November.

After returning to Luoyang, Huangfu Chaobo immediately invested in the resettlement of immigrants. Although it has been nearly a year and a half since he took over Luoyang, Luoyang and the surrounding counties have basically been in the process of constantly resettling refugees, but this time is completely different from the previous few times.

You have to know that the people coming are 400,000, not 40,000 or 100,000. Although Luoyang City can accommodate so many people, you have to know that several cities around Luoyang are basically in a semi-vacant state.
