Chapter 54: Filial Son Gao Shun

Outside Handan City, ten miles southeast.

On the way from Quliang to Handan, thousands of refugees flee towards Handan.

Behind the refugees, thousands of Yellow Turban troops were chasing them. All the refugees who caught up with them were looted, the man killed them by swords, and the woman was defiled on the spot.

This Yellow Turban Army was the vanguard of the Yellow Turban Army. It was frequently attacked by the Han army and retreated for fifteen miles in a row. Now that the large Yellow Turban Army has arrived, they are coming to Handan City again, and wherever they pass by, there is no way to keep the chickens and dogs.

"Shun'er! Mom knows that you are filial. Let me go and run away alone! If this continues, none of us will escape."

A young man, carrying an old woman on his back, ran away sweating profusely, and the old woman on his back was crying.

"Mom! Listen to me! We will definitely escape! The child will never leave his mother and live alone."

The man was panting and running, carrying an old woman weighing hundreds of pounds on her back, and her steps were still as agile as usual. There was no need for those young and strong men who ran away with their bare hands to be slow, but they had to be faster. Obviously, this was a warrior with a deep cultivation.

"Drink! Kill!"

"Save me..."

"ah……"

Behind the man, there were constant screams of bursting sounds, and it was obviously chased and killed by the Yellow Turban Army.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The dull sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. Hundreds of Yellow Turban cavalry, holding cold blades, were like butchers, ruthlessly slashing the butcher's knife in their hands at the people who were powerless.

call!

The strong wind rushes, the cold wind whistles in the ears, and the irritating ear roots hurts.

"Fight!"

The man with an old woman on his back suddenly flashed to the side, a cold light flashed, almost brushing his clothes, and a Yellow Turban cavalry passed by. The man's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist. The sword light flashed, and with a puff, the Yellow Turban cavalry died on the spot.

"Mom! You're holding on."

The man hugged the old woman on his back with one hand, jumped onto the war horse, and rode his horse towards Handan.

"Chasing me, kill him, kill him."

The horse's hooves hit the ground, the soil splashed, and hundreds of Yellow Turban cavalry chased after him.

The war horses dragged two people at the same time, and their speed was naturally not comparable to the hundreds of Yellow Turban cavalry behind them. Soon, the two conveniently brought the distance closer. Dozens of Yellow Turban cavalry rushed on the left and right wings, and they had already formed a siege.

"Mom! You have to hold me tightly, I will fight with them."

The surroundings were gradually surrounded by the Yellow Turban cavalry. The man shouted loudly, his face was as cold as ice, and a faint momentum rippled around his body, and his momentum was faint. Although he could not put pressure on the Yellow Turban cavalry around him, he was also roaring and shocking. At the peak of the human level, he was actually a peak of the human level warrior.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"drink!"

Facing more than a dozen Yellow Turban cavalry, the man was as calm as usual, and he slashed left and right with a long sword in his hand, as fierce as a tiger, and unstoppable.

But in a moment, hundreds of Yellow Turban cavalry caught up again, and the man's pressure suddenly increased. While fighting with the Yellow Turban cavalry, he also had to protect the old woman behind him. The situation suddenly became precarious.

However, at this critical moment.

Woo... Woo... Woo...

The sound of trumpets rang out.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The earth began to tremble violently, and tens of thousands of horses hit the hooves at the same time, which was as shocking as a tsunami. The entire earth seemed to collapse and crack the earth.

In the direction of Handan City, a large number of Han cavalry appeared, with bright armor and magnificent swords. Tens of thousands of horses galloping, and the momentum broke through the sky.

"The Han army is mighty! The Han army is mighty!"

"The Swallow Cavalry is unstoppable! Invincible!"

"charge!"

The commander of the Yanlang Cavalry, the young general Han Meng, had a cold face and waved the iron mace in his hand forward.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The sound of killing sounds like mountain torrents and tsunamis sounded, and 20,000 warriors of the wolf cavalry turned into an iron hoof torrent, and in an instant, hundreds of Yellow Turban cavalry were submerged.

With 20,000 iron hooves and one charge, thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers who were chasing the refugees collapsed, and the killed armor was left unstoppable, and the broken corpses lie all over the ground.

Three days later, the main army of the Yellow Turban Army arrived at the city of Handan, and nearly 500,000 Yellow Turban Army surrounded Handan City again.

This time, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army was famous. Zhang Bao, the younger brother of Zhang Jiao, the "Great Master" Zhang Jiao, proclaimed himself "General of the Heavenly King". This Zhang Bao called himself "General of the Earth King". In the entire Yellow Turban Army, his status was second only to Zhang Jiao. He was highly positioned and powerful, with one person and tens of thousands of people.

The depressing and tense atmosphere enveloped the entire Handan City. Looking at the 500,000 troops outside the city, the 110,000 Han troops in the city were all waiting for battle.

Ordinary soldiers were nervous, but the main generals ignored it. Although there were 500,000 Yellow Turban Army troops stationed outside the city, they had to rely on these mobs to capture the city with high walls, abundant equipment, and abundant food and grass. The 110,000 Han soldiers were stationed in Handan City, which was like an iron barrel, which was like a fairy tale.

At this time, Yan Rong's mansion.

Yan Rong is meeting two guests.

In the living room, an old woman slowly sat down with the help of a young man.

"Sir! My son Gao Shun has been well-read military books since he was a child, and has the heart to serve the court. He is only concerned about the old woman. In order to fulfill his filial piety, he has never served as a half-office official and is still in vain. Today, the old woman here to ask the adults to do something for my son, and hopes that the adults can accomplish it." The old woman said lightly.

"Mom! I just want to be by your side. After waiting for you for a hundred years, I should contribute to the country and serve the court." The young man said.

"Hmph! Now, bandits are everywhere, and the world is in turmoil. My son is a seven-foot man. Why don't he contribute to the court? At this moment, you must give your mother an answer. If you insist on not being an official and working for the country, you will think that you don't have your son, and you don't have to call me my mother." The old woman scolded him.

"Mom!" Gao Shun knelt on his knees and begged the old woman. Seeing that the old woman had made up her mind, he said reluctantly: "Unfilial son, Gao Shun, just promise your mother."

"Haha! It's a blessing for the people to help you!" Yan Rong laughed, "Brother Gao Shun is a famous filial son, and Yan admires him very much. If you want any position, just tell me, Yan should do his best to do your best as you wish."

"Since you have something to say first, Gao Shun is not polite, Shun wants to lead the elite army."

"It is probably inappropriate to lead the elite army. The elites in our army all have corresponding commanders, and they are all people with outstanding military achievements. If you are new to take the post, if you directly entrust important tasks, you may not accept it!"

Yan Rong looked a little embarrassed. Although Gao Shun was a peak warrior at the human level and was relatively strong, he was inexperienced in leading the army. All the elites in Handan City were treasures who had experienced many battles. How could Yan Rong feel assured to hand over the elites in his hands to his hands?

"The adults misunderstood. Gao Shun just wanted to train an elite team by himself."

"Oh? There are exactly 20,000 new troops in my city. You can select 5,000 infantrymen among them, train well, and form a new army!"

"Thank you for your accomplishment!"

The city of Handan was besieged, and the "General of the Earth Lord" Zhang Bao personally led a large army to start a protracted siege.

The battle of siege lasted for a month.

During this month, Handan City was surrounded by war fires all day long, with heavy casualties from the Yellow Turban Army. Hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army killed in battle, but it did not shake Handan City at all.

In the impregnable city of Handan, 110,000 Han soldiers were stationed, as firm as iron barrels. In a month, thousands of soldiers were sacrificed, and the 500,000 Yellow Turban Army troops outside the city were severely damaged.

After a long attack on Handan City, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was sluggish to the bottom. Soon after, the 400,000 Yellow Turban Army, led by the "Digong General" Zhang Bao, began to march towards Hanoi County.

It turned out that the main force of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army, led by "General of Heaven", was in a stalemate with the Han army led by Lu Zhi in Hanoi County. Lu Zhi's elite Han army stationed in Gongxian and Ji County, and was in a stalemate with the main force of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army in Luqian Mountain.

Recently, the Han Dynasty has sent more troops again. Dong Zhuo, the former prefect of Hedong, led 50,000 Xiliang Iron Hoods to assist Lu Zhi's troops, hoping to jointly suppress the main force of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army in Hanoi County.

As soon as the 50,000 Xiliang cavalry arrived, the main force of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army suddenly increased its pressure, and it suffered consecutive defeats. The entire army was shocked and there was a situation of losing. The "General of the Earth" had been attacking Handan for a long time, but fortunately, he led 400,000 Yellow Turban Army to support the "General of the Heavenly Turban Army" Zhang Jiao.

Within a month, the Yellow Turban Army from all over the country drew troops and went to Hanoi County to join the main force of the Yellow Turban Army in Hebei. The troops instantly exceeded 2 million, and the battle situation became stalemate again. The Yellow Turban Army relied on the huge number of people and once again steadily gained the upper hand.

Another month was another month in a blink of an eye, and it had been two months since Zhang Bao retreated to siege Handan City. In two months, the Han army in Handan City had been rested and its combat power reached its peak. After a series of discussions, the main army set out and began to march towards Hanoi County.

Yan Rong personally led a large army to fight, with 20,000 Yanlang cavalry, 20,000 Tiger Ben army, 30,000 bow and crossbow army, guard camp, special operations camp, and food and grass army, a total of 80,000 elite troops.

Tian Feng and Gao Shun were stationed in Handan, with 30,000 Han troops, plus 30,000 reserve troops, totaling 60,000 troops stationed in Handan City.

The main front line of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army was tight, and the Yellow Turban Army in Wei County was almost drained. The Yanrong army, without any obstruction, crossed Wei County, bypassed Yindang, and entered the Linlu area, echoing Lu Zhi's army from north to south.

When the army was crossing Wei County, the Yellow Turban Army in Wei County was in turmoil. Yan Rong had thought of breaking Ye County and seizing the largest granary of the Yellow Turban Army in Hebei. However, there were tens of thousands of elite Yellow Turban Army guarding the city, so he had to sigh and shake his head and walk around.
