Chapter 24, the situation is reversed

The Yellow Turban Army in the direction of the downhill of Shanyang became chaotic first. In the dark, they were not very clear about the situation, but now suddenly there was another fire, and suddenly there was some discomfort. In addition, there are shouts of killing before and after, and no one knows whether the friendly army is shouting to kill or the enemy is shouting to kill. I only felt the group of people at the end rushing forward and squeezing desperately, accompanied by all kinds of panicked and rapid screams.

The Yellow Turban Army in the direction of Maolin has not figured out what happened for a while. Who did the fire suddenly light in the direction of Shanyang? Obviously, it is very different from the ambush expected earlier. It's just a distance between the beginning and the end, which is not only a long distance, but also a team of officers and soldiers. So they don't have so much thought, so they can only speed up the pace of covering up as much as possible and solve the officers and soldiers in front of them first.

More than 400 officers and soldiers have fallen after a round of fighting.

The rest of the people are also unable to live. Knowing that there is no way to survive, there are always some weak people who suddenly lose all their will. With the successive appearance of those who turned to beg for mercy, the overall morale of the officers and soldiers has long disappeared.

Zhou Zhi had already crossed the side with his sword, and it was several trusted guards around him who hurriedly dissuade him.

"Your excellency, by all."

"There is light in the mountain sun, and there is light on the other side of the mountain."

When Zhou Zhi looked up, although he couldn't see too much, he could faintly see some outlines. The big rear of the yellow scarf thieves who poured up from the direction of the downhill seemed to be undergoing some changes. Many yellow scarf thieves seemed to have been attacked from behind their backs and fell to the ground one after another. The chaos of this wave of yellow scarf thieves was like a wave. It rolled up from the rear and soon affected more yellow scarf thieves.

He really didn't expect what was going on? Shanyang is a downhill road, which has already blocked the yellow scarf thief. At this time, the yellow scarf thief has been ambushed here for a long time. How can another man secretly copy the rear? Ten thousand steps back, even if it really makes people copy the rear, where does this come from?

Although the counties in the north of the county have sent reinforcements, this also happened more than ten days ago. Don't it mean that these reinforcements are limited and it is impossible to fight head-on with the Yellow Turban Army, not to mention that there has been no movement at all in the past ten days. It is rumored that the reinforcements of the counties have already withdrawn to the county when they see too strong.

Because of such a thought, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Where did this team come from?"

The close-in guard said anxiously, "Your Excellency, no matter where he comes from, as long as he is killing the thief, he is his own. We must break out first."

Hearing his subordinate's words, Zhou Zhi realized it. He immediately raised his sword in his hand and shouted to the left and right people: "The reinforcements are coming, the reinforcements are coming. Everyone kills me."

This is a long drought, which makes all the officers and soldiers struggling on the edge of the desperate situation instantly feel the hope of survival. From despair to hope, this excessive reversion suddenly burst out the accumulated desire for survival. In a blink of an eye, the officers and soldiers waved their blades like madmen and tried their best to fight against the thieves who rushed up. For a moment, they obviously curbed the powerful offensive of the thieves.

It didn't take long, and gradually, the yellow scarf thieves on the side of Shanyang were completely messed up.

Behind them, the firelight is not only getting brighter and brighter, but also more and more. A team dressed in ordinary but with military blades appeared in front of everyone as if they had emerged from the ground. They chased after the yellow scarf thief and killed fiercely. The yellow scarf thief, who thought he could control the situation, really did not expect that his abdomen and back would be attacked. In a blink of an eye, he became the target of being attacked, and the collapse was irresable.

The yellow scarf thief did not have strict discipline in the first place. They are all yellow and thin people who lack sophisticated weapons and equipment. Once the situation suddenly changes, these people don't even have the ability to respond. In a hurry, many people knelt down and begged for mercy, but no one took care of the prisoners during the melee, and the red-eyed killer only cared about killing desperately.

The wave of yellow scarf army and the cavalry in the direction of Maolin fought desperately. They had already found that something was wrong in the direction of Shanyang, but unfortunately there was no way to take care of it. As for the yellow scarf army on the other two sides, it was originally just to be responsible for creating momentum. In addition, the terrain is too dangerous, and the number of people arranged in advance is not too large. Even the friendly troops who want to respond to the direction of Shanyang are powerless.

Zhou Zhi led his command to lean in the direction of Shanyang and concentrated his firepower to cooperate with the mysterious reinforcements to cover up the Yellow Turban Army.

Only for a moment, the yellow scarf army in the direction of Shanyang could no longer support it and fled around. The terrain in the mountain forest is unstable, and many people in a hurry are tripped over by branches and stones, or fall into nearby rock crevices or steep slopes. Under this involvement, even the yellow scarf army on the left and right sides was greatly affected, or someone who originally wanted to help resist the mysterious sneak attack troops killed from the rear, but was blocked by his escaped companions, and even bumped and bumped together.

"Look at the sword, the thief will run away!"

"Kill, kill!"

Zhou Zhi's people gradually stood firm. Although he rode on the horse, his speed was not very fast and could only move in the direction of Shanyang as much as possible. He quickly rushed to the front of the team. After turning over two panicked yellow scarf thieves with his own hands, he saw more than a dozen other knights running out in front of him. The horses these knights are all well-bred horses, mostly wearing white hooded cloaks, but behind these well-bred horses are a group of volunteers who seem to be temporarily recruited.

The two sides met. The leading knight was not too old, but he was also more than 30 years old, and his white clothes were already stained with blood. Zhou Zhi was about to ask, but he didn't know that the other party was the first to ask, "Who are you waiting for?" But did you come out of Pinggang County?

Zhou Zhi hurriedly responded, "Exactly, we were ordered to break out and ask for help, and we were ambushed by the thief here. Dare to ask where the heroes came from and how did they get here?

The leading knight was silent for a moment, as if he was looking at Zhou Zhi carefully. He saw clearly that Zhou Zhi's left hand sleeve was wrapped in reins, and immediately said, "But Lord Zhou Zhizhou, the northern captain?"

Zhou Zhi was a little surprised, but there were too many surprises tonight, and the current surprise was obviously not a big deal. He nodded and said without concealing, "I am Zhou Zhi, the captain of the north. How do you know me?"

The knight saluted and said seriously, "Today, under the order of my eldest son, I tried to go to the city and the county government to inform the news. Unfortunately, he encountered a large band of thieves here. He thought that the matter was exposed, but he didn't expect that Lord Zhou broke out from the city.

Zhou Zhi knows the name of Xu Wuzu's house, not to mention the reputation of Zu Zhao, the eldest son of the Zu family, which is also very hotly discussed in the county at this time. He met with Zu Zhao. It was at the time of last year's inspection that he almost drank one or two cups at the Taishou Mansion dinner every day. In addition, when the Taishou Mansion was assassinated, Zu Zhao also performed prominently. Recently, I heard that Zu Zhao had committed a crime and was being questioned by the riding general Zhang Wen. I didn't expect that the person who killed the yellow scarf thief at this time turned out to be Zujiazhuang.

Soon, Zhou Zhi's team and Zuling's team merged into one, and the two sides immediately adjusted their formation. The people and horses in the direction of Maolin were still stubbornly resisting the attack of the yellow scarf thieves, while the people and horses behind gradually divided into two strands, chasing them along the gap between the left and right yellow scarf thirves.

Although the yellow scarf thief in the direction of Maolin can still have a certain momentum in the front, the situation has become more and more acute with the collapse of the two wing companions. The morale of the Yellow Turban Army was seriously traumatized, and the advantages caused by the previous ambush disappeared in an instant. Many escaped yellow scarf thieves have no way out. Even if they leave the battlefield, they will be trapped in the mountains. The mountain road is unpredictable and unpredictable, and it is easy to encounter accidents.

More than 200 of Zhou Zhi's subordinates still insisted on fighting, but there were more than 400 reinforcements brought by Zuling.

Although there are not a few people ambushed by the Yellow Turban Army, but these undisciplined and adaptable teams have suffered such a major trauma, and no matter how many people can't save the situation.

The next battle can almost be described as the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves. The people and horses brought by Zuling seem to have never experienced such a major victory, and the pleasure of winning and chasing spread in everyone's blood. They are like run wild horses, killing the thieves irrationally all the way.

The powerful murderous spirit suddenly defeated all the yellow scarf thieves. Even if there are some leaders and other figures in the crowd who are still trying to control the situation, they are also some useless shouts, but also reveal their identities. Among the righteous bravery brought by the officers and soldiers and Zuling, there were many good archers who specially identified these leaders and released an arrow from afar.

In less than two minutes, the officers and soldiers and the righteous side fully grasped the situation.

The battlefield gradually subsided, and there were more mourning of the wounded and the begging of prisoners for mercy.

Most of the fleeing yellow scarf thieves are in the direction of Shanyin, but the front road is Pinggang County. These scattered thieves must not dare to go to Pinggang County. The only way out is to hide in some places deep in the mountains. There are countless risks in the deep mountains, and even the simplest way to get lost will drive these people crazy.

After chasing the remnants for a while, Zhou Zhi and Zuling stopped their position.
