When Zhang Ze, the governor of Wei County, heard the report from the visitor, he was a little unbelievable that the west gate of the outer city would fall so soon. It was less than two days before, but he couldn't help but believe it. Faced with such a situation, his already pale face was even bloodless, and he kept coughing, and coughing from time to time.

Although Zhang Ze, who was seriously injured by Lu Bu at that banquet, saved his life under the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he saw the Yellow Turban Army siege the city. As a county magistrate, he had to force himself to deal with the matters in Yecheng.

Because the Yellow Turban attacked Yecheng this time, the things that were originally prepared were not fully equipped, and before the Yellow Turban attacked Yecheng, theft actually happened. The prepared intermediate-level heroic soldiers were working because they had no sacrifices. Fortunately, they had obtained a large number of people and supplies from powerful families before, otherwise it would have been really not good. He originally thought that with these things, he could last for a month, but unexpectedly, there was a danger in the Ximen gate just two days after the war started, and the outer city could hardly be saved.

"Ahem...come."

Zhang Ze coughed violently and looked a little depressed, but after thinking for a while, he decided to reinforce. Even if he was desperate, he would never let Ximen fall into the hands of the Yellow Turban Army. He then called his subordinates and gave instructions, and these people went down to do their business.

The rumbling sound made when the troops in Yecheng was mobilized can be heard throughout the city. In the streets and alleys of the outer city, a group of soldiers were seen rushing towards the west gate. The more than 600,000 soldiers and horses originally stationed on the inner city of Yecheng were directly transferred 300,000 to support the west gate. Not only that, the 180,000 Han troops stationed at the north gate of the outer city were also transferred 80,000 troops.

Just when the troops were mobilized, hundreds of people walked out of a small courtyard in the city. More than 300 men in armor and strong figures had a variety of weapons in their hands, but they all shone with extraordinary luster. These more than 300 people have the strength of military generals, and they are not even ordinary generals. They have the strength of 3-star intermediate generals at the lowest, and there are more than 50 senior generals, more than 10 special generals, and 5 quasi-famous generals. Such a powerful lineup, that is,

Even the Yellow Turban Generals outside the West City were a little insufficient. And before this was over, a wave of people came out of the courtyard, but the number of these people was smaller, only more than 100. However, unlike the previous generals, these more than 100 people were dressed as literati, obviously a group of literati, and the level was not low. The bottom ones were all intermediate literati, with many senior and special literati, and there were two quasi-famous figures.

More than 100 scribes and more than 300 generals formed a team of nearly 500 people riding horses and heading towards the direction of Xicheng. These people also went to support Xicheng. The last reserve talent belonged to Yecheng was only now that Ximen was in danger, so Zhang had to use these people.

When people were frequently mobilized to support the West Gate in Yecheng, a group of people were heading towards the temporary port on the north bank of Zhangshui on the north bank of Yecheng.

The speed of this man was extremely fast, unlike ordinary man. It was Yang Tao, who was supposed to be outside the west gate of Yecheng and his 300,000 elite soldiers. They were running on the plains and soon saw a port that appeared thousands of meters away. Yang Tao's eyes condensed and activated his raid skills. The troops that were already much faster than ordinary man because they were elite soldiers. Under the action of the raid skills, their speed increased a lot and rushed directly to the port.

Because the speed was too fast, Yang Tao and others were discovered after Yang Tao's men approached the port 300 meters.

Seeing a large-scale Yellow Turban troops appear, the entire port rushed to gather troops, but their speed was too slow. Before the enemy could assemble, Jiang Qi, who was in the vanguard, rushed to the front of the port with 5,000 first-level elite light cavalry under the action of the raiding skills. He swung out with a shot, split the gate that was about to close, and rushed into the port and started to kill.

Facing 5,000 light cavalry, even if there are tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers in the port, it cannot resist it. In addition, the port is temporarily built, and there are no other buildings except tents. Cavalry can roam around it. After the cavalry rushed in, a series of uninterrupted screams came from the entire port. After Yang Tao led 300,000 first-level elite soldiers to rush into the port. In less than half an hour, Yang Tao's men and horses cleared the place and then began to collect the ships in the port to prepare to cross the river.

At this time, there was also a shout of killing from the port opposite, but it soon calmed down.

Many ships suddenly came up the upstream of this port. Under the leadership of a military general, he arrived at the north bank of Zhangshui where Yang Tao was located. There were also ships on the south bank. The leader was a man with bloodstains all over his body. After arriving at the north bank, he reported to Yang Tao: "Report to the lord, the enemy troops on the south bank have been resolved."

This person was Qifeng under Yang Tao's command. He was originally just a senior general. After being promoted to a special-level general by Tian Wujia, he led more than 20,000 elite naval troops under his command to attack the port on the south bank. Qifeng, who was already good at water battles, and 20,000 elite naval troops, made it very easy to raid a port guarded by tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers.

When Yang Tao heard his report, he nodded and asked all the people on the North Bank to board the boat immediately and captured Beicheng before the enemy troops in Beicheng could react.

Seeing the soldiers who were boarding the ship one after another, Yang Tao couldn't help but remember the previous plan that Sima Ying had made. He used the army to attack the west gate of Yecheng as bait to attract the troops in the city to the west city. An elite army quickly attacked the north gate of Yecheng and then quickly captured Yecheng. In order to make this plan successful, some of the intermediate siege equipment he prepared were borrowed by Sima Ying. In order to better complete the plan, Yang Tao also left Sima Ying with 800 elite archers with better equipment, and Yang Tao led his 300,000 elite soldiers and light chariots to travel here.

This strategy was originally difficult to achieve. It was mainly because the north of Yecheng was the Zhang River. Even if Yang Tao had 300,000 elite soldiers, he lacked ships. Unexpectedly, Sima Ying had already planned to attack the surprise attack. In the past half month, many ships on the southern Huan River were transported to the Zhang River with space equipment. Otherwise, even if Yang Tao took down this newly built port, there would not be enough ships to transport 300,000 troops to the south bank at once. If transported in batches, it would be delayed. At that time, the North City might have been alert and could not achieve the effect of the surprise attack.

The 300,000 elite soldiers moved quickly. After boarding the ship, they arrived at the south bank by boat. After a little repair, they followed Yang Tao's leadership and attacked the north gate of Yecheng without stopping.

...

At this time, Fangcun's soldiers and horses outside Pingyang City encountered great trouble. They had come here before and collided with the troops of Tao Ling Dong Zhao, the sect who came from the north. Since then, Fangcun has never taken a step forward to the west because they were restrained by this man named Dong Zhao. The two fought for dozens of rounds and each had their own victory or defeat, but overall, Dong Zhao was slightly better. After all, Dong Zhao only blocked the attack of the million-strong Yellow Turban Army with a 300,000 troops that were pieced together from east to west.

Moreover, from the losses of both sides, Fang Cun has lost more than half of his troops, while Dong Shao has lost less than one-third. The strength of both sides is approaching, and as for whoever loses and who wins, that's expected.

This stalemate would have been going on for a long time before the outcome could be decided, but on this day, a rumbling sound of earth shaking suddenly came from the east of them. The sound seemed to be the sound of a large number of cavalry coming.

This situation suddenly occurred. Fangcun and Dong Shao sent people to investigate the east. In the end, Fangcun's men found the source of the sound first. However, when the people sent by Fangcun saw that the people arrived, they were completely unhappy because they saw an elite army, or to be more precise, an elite army with a population of more than 500,000. A large Chinese-character flag was at the front of the team, so that anyone could know that this was a Han army. After this Han army flag, there was a slightly smaller flag with a black character Lu character on it. There was a large number of cavalry running in the entire team, and this was how the sound of the ground vibrating came.

Seeing the situation here, these people from the Longteng Association quickly reported the situation here to Fangcun, who was still confronting Dong Zhao, through the call system.

Hearing the report from his subordinates, he learned that a Han army elite of hundreds of thousands was coming towards him. Fang Cun went straight down without hesitation and asked the horse to move south. Even though he was attacked by Dong Zhao, who was like a thorn in the process, he lost so many people and could not take care of it. Now it is the most important thing to save his life.

Fortunately, Dong Zhao did not chase too far. After Fang Cun successfully escaped, he stayed in the south of Pingyang City more than 100 kilometers away. While waiting for an opportunity to move, he sent someone to inquire about the origin and whereabouts of this elite soldier. Although Fang Cun had already guessed something in his heart, it was safer to confirm it.
