As the commander of an entire army, responsible for the whole battle situation and for the lives of seventy to eighty thousand Han soldiers, Gongsun Xun would not stoop to such shamelessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, what this General of the Household of All Purposes lamented was precisely the hidden peril of the battle situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fighting on both wings was clearly going smoothly, with the Han army holding the advantage. Moreover, whether from the reports of these messengers or from the distant observation of banners, it was unmistakably clear that the Han army had indeed secured a firm beachhead, and the boats on both sides were still continuously ferrying in reinforcements without pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this did not mean the strategic objective had been achieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was the fundamental purpose of forcing a crossing and establishing a fortified camp? It was not to build a camp for its own sake, but to draw in the enemy's forces, to disrupt their deployment, and thereby forge a perfect anvil for the Han cavalry to deliver the decisive hammer blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem now was that, as Gongsun Xun sat astride his horse by the riverbank and observed clearly, even with the main Han forces on both wings having secured their footing, the main force of the Yellow Turban central army, tens of thousands strong, facing him directly, remained utterly immovable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their immobility meant there would always be a powerful strategic reserve to meet the arrival of that ten-thousand-strong cavalry force; it also meant the Yellow Turban forces on both wings were still ample, sufficient to handle the situation. At the very least, they could maintain pressure on the two Han contingents, which could only laboriously resupply their forces via ferry, without needing to request reinforcements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an outcome might still ultimately lead to victory once the cavalry arrived... After all, what Lou Zibo had said was quite reasonable: with a strong city behind them, when the cavalry came sweeping over like a blanket, they would likely lose their will to fight and choose to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a retreat under heavy assault, with the entire line damaged and in chaos, is a fundamentally different concept from a retreat where only a flank is raided, conducted securely under the cover of the main central army!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Zhang Bao, directly opposite, could keep his nerve to the end, then the result of this battle might only be the collapse of one wing of the Yellow Turbans, while he himself calmly led his main force to shield the remaining troops and withdraw back to the city... When that happened, Xiaquyang, further south across the Hutuo River, might well become a stronghold impossible to take by conventional military means!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exactly the same as Guangzong over there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How to put it? Even though he was mentally prepared to stall and drag things out, Gongsun Xun still disliked situations beyond his control... Even if it meant a prolonged siege in the future, he only wanted to besiege a city he could take at any moment, not a stronghold against which he would be truly determined yet helpless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because that feeling was very unpleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shouts of battle from both wings continued unabated, and the Han army, following the rhythmic drumbeats, kept ferrying reinforcements ashore. Good news was also constantly relayed back to the central army with the comings and goings of the boats... It was nothing more than Governor Guo's division capturing some rampart, or Governor Zhang's division slaying some minor commander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But gradually, likely because the beachheads on both wings were expanding and the battle lines were stretching out, the frequency of these victory reports noticeably decreased. And so, soon, some people with military experience also began to perceive certain problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Yellow Turban rebels' combat prowess is improving at an astonishing rate!\" Lou Gui, somewhat agitated, spurred his horse forward to Gongsun Xun's side and then lowered his voice. \"The Yellow Turban central army on the opposite bank still isn't moving?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed.\" Gongsun Xun replied with an impassive expression. \"Back when they first rose up in the second month, the rebels would have long since been thrown into chaos by such maneuvers. Yet now, they actually understand to keep a reserve force to deal with the cavalry... After months of facing off, they have learned quite a few things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Gui frowned slightly and said, \"It's not just here. The fighting on both wings is gradually becoming a stalemate, which shows the Yellow Turban soldiers themselves are not what they used to be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is even more commonplace.\" Gongsun Xun sighed. \"Are soldiers fighting their first battle the same as those who have fought three or five? Are soldiers who have never seen corpses and severed limbs the same as those who have killed? In my view, compared to the progress of the lower-ranking soldiers, their weakness probably still lies in the rebel commanders and generals on that earthen hill... It's just that, even they can no longer be toyed with as easily as one would tease a child.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Zibo slowly nodded, but then still broke into a relieved smile: \"No matter what, whether the rebel soldiers' combat power improves or the rebel leaders learn a few things, they are still generally inferior to our army. Once the cavalry arrives, I refuse to believe they can hold out. It's merely a question of whether more or fewer of them flee!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Xun also smiled along, but remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun gradually moved westward. The central army staff continued their distant standoff with the Earth General Zhang Bao opposite, following their commander Gongsun Xun. However, everyone's attention was now focused on the corpses floating down from upstream... Among them, of course, those with yellow turbans wrapped around their heads were more numerous, but from time to time, there would still be some Han army corpses and even wounded. At such moments, soldiers from the central army would naturally row boats into the river, braving the enemy's crossbows, to retrieve and rescue them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as the minds of the central army officers were gradually growing numb, and the main central army force behind them had rested to the point of utter boredom, a rider came galloping along the riverbank, tumbling from his horse directly before the central army. It was a trusted guard sent by Guo Dian's division. Seeing Gongsun Xun's canopy from afar, he could not help but shout out: \"My lord Governor requests reinforcements! Here is his temporary request-for-transfer document, stamped on the battlefield!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The central army staff were all jolted in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Fan dared not delay. He immediately dismounted, stepped forward to receive the letter, and then brought it towards Gongsun Xun while opening it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, the guard, having delivered the letter, was utterly exhausted. He sat down directly on the ground, panting heavily, and did not forget to wipe his face with his hand... His body was already a mix of three parts sweat, three parts river water, three parts blood, and one part mud. This action only made the intensity of the fighting on his side seem all the more apparent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chancellor of Changshan, Feng Xin, seeing this, once again could not restrain himself and actually asked aloud in public: \"Could it be that the battle situation at Governor Guo's position is dire?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is not the case!\" The guard, being questioned, hurriedly straightened his back on the ground and replied. \"Though the Yellow Turban rebels are numerous, they are no match for us. Moreover, Governor Guo personally wields a naked blade and fights at the front, so our army still holds the advantage. It's just that the battle circle is growing ever larger, yet the rebels still surround us in endless waves. Seeing that our army cannot break the encirclement quickly, my lord Governor thus wishes to borrow the central army's ferries, so that Captain Zong behind him can rapidly send more and faster reinforcements.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that's how it is.\" Not just Feng Xin, but the entire central army staff breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, this was a major problem with forced river-crossing operations—insufficient ferries, limiting the speed of troop deployment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must understand, the Hutuo River was not a great river like the Yellow River; it had no solid embankments and no dedicated ferry crossings. In normal times when the water was not strong, suitable spots could generally be found between commanderies and counties to easily erect pontoon bridges as routes of passage. Thus, there simply were not that many boats to be scrounged up along the entire river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the very place where Gongsun Xun and Zhang Bao faced off was formerly the location of the pontoon bridge crossing north from Xiaquyang, which Zhang Bao had simply dismantled when he withdrew to the south of the river. And it was not without reason that the Han army later established camp here and attempted to cross the river from this point, only to be blocked by the earthen hill the Yellow Turbans erected... After all, the place where a pontoon bridge is built is always the narrowest point, and the shallows on both banks had been tamped solid, making it ideal for a forced crossing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to the matter at hand, Gongsun Xun glanced at the battlefield document hastily sent by Guo Dian, then, under the expectant gazes of the crowd, slightly shook his head and said without changing expression: \"I will not write a document in return. Go back and tell your lord Guo Jun that according to our agreement, our cavalry should arrive from downstream—that is, from the east—in about half a shichen. Guo Jun is on the western flank; sending reinforcements now would be of little use... Therefore, I have other uses for the central army's ferries!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard was quite disappointed but had nothing to say. He could only hastily accept the order and depart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the surrounding officers, hearing these words, became relieved... Gongsun Xun's intention was clearly to support the downstream flank—that is, the route taken by Zhang Chun and Cheng Pu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doing so, in public terms, would be more beneficial for the cavalry operation coming from the east; in private terms, Cheng Pu was a personal retainer of the General of the Household of All Purposes, so directing merit to his division was only natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, once Guo Dian's guard had hurriedly left, Gongsun Xun, unhurried and unflustered, simply turned around and calmly issued an order to his side: \"Have Cheng Demou immediately concentrate the elite troops under Gao Suqing and send them across to the opposite bank at once. The cavalry will arrive sooner or later; do not hold back any longer!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several White Horse Volunteers immediately set off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Gui and Xi Zhong exchanged a glance, and then it was still Lou Gui who stepped forward to advise: \"My lord, our cavalry should have finished resting downstream by now. If you wish to conclude this battle extremely quickly, perhaps you should immediately use flag signals to urge them to advance... After all, it seems Zhang Bao and his central army will not be moving.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Gongsun Xun could not help but turn his head to look at the Earth General's great banner, perched high on the earthen hill on the opposite bank. He knew that, just as Lou Zibo had said, behind that earthen hill and that great banner, there must be around thirty thousand of the most elite Yellow Turban main force, utterly immovable, just as behind him, over twenty thousand Han soldiers had been sitting on the ground resting for most of the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a situation, it seemed one could only \"sit calmly and await victory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, would Gongsun Xun allow this forced crossing battle to end in such an unclear, ambiguous, and even inconsequential \"victory\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let Zhang Bao preserve his elite troops and the bulk of his strength, withdrawing into the city to mount a leisurely defense?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Dian, at his advanced age, was personally wielding a blade and fighting the Yellow Turbans in close combat. Even that scoundrel Zhang Chun could grit his teeth and rise from desperate straits to cross the river with fervent resolve. Was Gongsun Xun to be so perfunctory?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, Gongsun Xun gave a cold laugh, then turned back to face north. His expression suddenly stern, he directly addressed the central army position with a loud shout: \"Where are the troops of Hejian Principality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hejian Military Affairs Clerk and Acting Major, Wang Meng of Dongzhou, pays respects to the General and awaits the General's command!\" The crowd was stunned for a moment, then one man hurriedly stepped forward and performed a grand salute. It was precisely the commander of the reinforcements Hejian Principality had been ordered to send after the chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Major Wang.\" Gongsun Xun asked sternly. \"When I inspected the roster the day before yesterday, I saw that your division has a company of troops composed entirely of halberdiers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed!\" Wang Meng hastily replied. \"You Province produces shock cavalry and horse archers, Ji Province produces long spears and powerful crossbows. Our Hejian soldiers have always had a custom of using long halberds and great spears. When this rebellion erupted, our Chancellor, acting on his delegated authority, issued from the local armories and specifically recruited and formed one company of halberdiers, two companies of spearmen, two companies of crossbowmen, and one company of great shield soldiers—a total of twelve hundred elite troops, plus a thousand engineers and two thousand able-bodied conscripts... Although slightly fewer than other commanderies and principalities, their combat strength and equipment are absolutely superior!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then summon all the acting company commanders of your division here!\" Gongsun Xun naturally could not be bothered with the details of how many troops Hejian had sent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding men, as well as Wang Meng, understood that Gongsun Xun was selecting elite troops for a final assault timed with the cavalry's arrival, so no one dared be negligent... It was just that Wang Meng was quite excited, while the others were rather envious, wondering how the Hejian soldiers had caught the General of the Household of All Purposes' eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, a dozen or so so-called \"acting company commanders\" arrived in their armor and collectively bowed deeply on the riverbank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Which one is the halberdier company commander?\" With the battle pressing, Gongsun Xun could not be bothered with pretense. \"I have seen the roster. Where is Zhang He, Zhang Junyi, of Mao County in Hejian?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the men started violently, then immediately raised his head, revealing a refined, youthful face of about twenty-some years beneath his helmet: \"Zhang He of Hejian awaits orders!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad!\" Gongsun Xun, seated on horseback and looking down, was quite satisfied to see the man's imposing and dignified appearance. \"I ask you, can your 'Great Halberdiers' fight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Zhang He waste words? He immediately cupped his fists and replied: \"Willing to be the General's vanguard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Then I shall entrust my life and death to you, this vanguard.\" Gongsun Xun could not help but laugh. \"Major Wang, immediately deploy your division... Use only the twelve hundred elite regulars, no engineers. The shield soldiers will cross the river first to open up the battlefield, then the crossbowmen will provide cover. Let this Zhang Junyi lead the three companies of long spears and great halberds in a forward assault. Push as far as you can and do not hold back any strength!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Meng, just as overjoyed as Zhang He, could only hastily puff out his chest in assurance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even in his excitement, Wang Meng had to ask one more question: \"May I ask, General, will our army launch boats from here? Where are we heading — downstream to join forces with the elite troops under Captain Cheng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why seek the distant while ignoring the near?\" Gongsun Xun did not even turn his head, merely drawing his blade and pointing it behind him. \"We cross the river right here, and strike directly at Zhang Bao on the earthen hill... Move at once!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men all changed color at this, but how could one hesitate within the army formation? Thus, Wang Meng, Zhang He, and the other Hejian officers all rose together and went to the rear to muster the troops, but the joy had already faded from their faces, while the expressions of the surrounding commanders grew complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening a third battlefield would undoubtedly throw the Yellow Turban troop deployments into great chaos, thereby allowing the cavalry's role to be further exploited... But equally beyond doubt was that although crossing the river here was extremely easy, directly ahead lay not only the earthen hill but also the tens of thousands of rebel troops behind it. One moment of carelessness, and they would likely be pinned down in the area between the base of the earthen hill and the riverbank, suffering heavy casualties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an opportunity for merit — perhaps it was better not to contend for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, when the moment came, the Hejian Kingdom troops had no path of retreat. Whether Wang Meng, Zhang He, or the other officers, all sternly urged and loudly encouraged their men, and in less than half a quarter-hour, they had all assembled on the riverbank and boarded the boats in battle order!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thereupon, the drums of the Han central army suddenly thundered, and amid the finally unrestrainable agitation of the Yellow Turbans on the opposite bank, hundreds of boats launched forth at once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Guo Dian had just received his guards' report when he heard the distant commotion. He climbed the rampart to look, and seeing the central army's movements from afar, he could not help but sigh with emotion... The other party's handling of the situation, compared to his own blind request for reinforcements, indeed better grasped the essence of military strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Xu Zhan, utterly exhausted downstream, after barely managing to kill one more man, could not help but climb to higher ground to look. And when he discovered that not only had the central army suddenly launched troops straight at Zhang Bao, but that behind him Cheng Pu was also sending over the entirety of that supremely elite force under Gao Shun, the man let out a long breath, then exchanged a distant, hearty laugh with Zhang Chun, who stood in the formation dressed in mourning white... It seemed the two of them had narrowly escaped the peril of this battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, while the pressure on the two Han wings suddenly eased, the Hejian troops at the center, the moment they made landfall, encountered the bitter struggle they had anticipated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, as everyone had imagined, Zhang Bao on the earthen hill was well prepared, and immediately dispatched a large number of crossbowmen forward to fire in volleys... And well he might — having crushed half of Hebei, how could the Lord of Earth General lack for powerful crossbows?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Han troops landing came on with fierce momentum, the officers mostly in iron armor and the soldiers mostly in leather. Yet apart from the shield-bearers, they were utterly helpless against the overwhelming barrage of powerful crossbow bolts. Many were nailed dead on the spot while still in the boats or on the beachhead. And the shield-bearers who landed first fared no better — with no retreat possible, they could only raise their shields and charge into the crossbow formation, but the bolts fired at close range pierced straight through the thick iron-faced great shields. Those who died on the spot were the fortunate ones; the most horrifying were those pinned through both shield and body by a single bolt, collapsing wailing to the ground, only to be hacked to death by random blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This situation only ceased when the long-spear and great-halberd troops behind them managed to form ranks and charge forward. By then, however, of the two hundred great-shield soldiers, fifty or sixty were already dead; of the two hundred great-halberds and four hundred long-spears, seventy or eighty were gone; and of the four hundred crossbowmen, forty or fifty had also perished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this did not mean the battle situation here had turned favorable... Shortly after the crossbowmen dispersed, before the Hejian troops could properly array themselves, Zhang Bao issued a succession of orders, and his most elite melee units were deployed one after another — long-spears, blades, and shields in full complement — directly meeting the Han army head-on in a desperate struggle to block them, to prevent the latter from approaching that critically vital earthen hill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In all fairness, while the Hejian troops' plight was indeed harrowing, did not such urgent redeployment on the other side equally show that the Yellow Turbans had been thrown into panic and utter disarray by this sudden strike, like a black tiger reaching for the heart?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang He was a perceptive man, and he too could see the panic on the opposing side. He knew full well that the General of the Household of All Purposes' tactical arrangements were flawless, even brilliant... Yet, the casualties were so heavy, and all of them sons of Hejian, while the cavalry that would later claim the great merit were mostly the General of the Household of All Purposes' own trusted men. As a man who had always studied the classics and understood reason, how could he not feel bitter?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what use was bitterness? At this moment, he still had to follow military orders and fight the enemy to the death, did he not?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Zhang He was steeling himself to give the order to charge, suddenly, the drums on the far side of the Hutuo River behind them thundered once more. The earthen hill ahead, and even the Yellow Turban troops before his eyes, all fell into disorder, visibly shaken to the core. Zhang He saw clearly: on the earthen hill, beneath the Yellow Heaven banner, a figure who had been seated all along started up in alarm, nearly stumbling. Even many of his comrades around him now stared dumbfounded toward the northern bank of the Hutuo River...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Utterly bewildered, Zhang He could not help but turn his head to look, and then he too was stirred to his very core by the scene on the opposite bank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that the river here was quite narrow. Just as the Hejian troops were struggling to gain a foothold, this wave of boats had already returned to the northern bank to ferry the next wave of reinforcements... However, the men boarding for this next wave were all leading white horses onto the boats themselves!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the lead boat, a familiar canopy had been set up directly at the prow; on the next boat, the imperial staff representing the Son of Heaven was likewise erected at the prow; and the White Horse Banner, on the third boat behind, was raised high, fluttering ceaselessly in the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not only Zhang He who suddenly understood — Guo Dian, Zhang Chun, Cheng Pu, Zong Yuan, and indeed all the Han and Yellow Turban troops on both banks now fully grasped the truth: the Han Regional Commander, General of the Household of All Purposes, Bearer of the Imperial Staff, Marquis of Liangxiang, Gongsun Xun, with only a thousand men before him, was personally crossing the river to strike directly at Zhang Bao face to face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang He turned back around as if waking from a daze, drew a deep breath, and hesitated no longer. He cast aside the long spear in his hand, drew his blade, and shouted orders for his great-halberd warriors to press forward with full force, disregarding all else, and drive straight for the earthen hill only three hundred paces away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———————I am the dividing line that drives straight forward———————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhang He, styled Junyi, was a man of Mao in Hejian. At the end of Han, he answered the call to campaign against the Yellow Turbans, serving as Acting Company Commander under the Grand Ancestor. Attacking Xia Quyang, crossing the Hutuo, he took two hundred halberdiers as the vanguard, was first to ascend after crossing the river, and thereby became known.\" — Old Book of Yan, Volume 71, Biography 21\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PS: There is also a reader group, 684558115, feel free to join if interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",4115,"2026-06-04T19:42:26.060Z",1,"Novelzhen Translator","e4246895b26d50c280ca52a7ff0a087f73a3fdbaeb368ed6d770e3c768fd4b72","overthrowing-han-chapter-256","overthrowing-han-chapter-254",548,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Foverthrowing-han-cover.jpg"]
