Chapter 409: Five Generals of Liang, Zhang He 《Please subscribe!!!》

~6 min read 1,166 words

The next few days.

There was no war.

Ever since Su Li led Zhao Yu and the Crimson Dragon Cavalry to break through the Huang Jin's blockade circle, the Huang Jin began to lie low.

They neither attacked the city nor had any major movements.

Until three days later.

"The Huang Jin army has started to attack the city!"

The Yecheng defenders suddenly ran to each camp to pass the word.

It alarmed the hundreds of thousands of defenders in Yecheng.

Su Li, Liu Bei, Lu Zhi, and others all came to the top of the city wall.

A single glance was enough.

On the horizon, a yellow ocean appeared, stretching for miles, almost filling everyone's line of sight.

Lu Zhi subconsciously placed his hand on the hilt of his sword at his waist, his brows furrowed.

Boom boom boom...

The number of the Huang Jin army was too massive; the sound of footsteps formed a resonance, the earth was trembling, like the flooding of the Yellow River, surging with waves.

One yellow banner after another was erected, fluttering in the north wind!

The Huang Jin generals commanded one 100,000-man square formation after another, moving without end.

A burly general rode a warhorse, and the Huang Jin army looked at that person fanatically.

It was precisely the General of the People Zhang Liang, who was using the power of the Human Scroll of the Taiping Essential Arts to command and amplify all the Huang Jin. "The Blue Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall stand!"

"The year is Jiazi, the world shall be at peace!"

"You have been surrounded by our army; surrender the city quickly, otherwise, when the city is broken, not even a chicken or dog will be left!"

Even though they were still very far away, Zhang Liang's voice echoed over Yecheng like rolling thunder.

Including the people of Yecheng and the Han army soldiers of Jizhou, upon hearing Zhang Liang's sound transmission technique, their faces turned pale immediately.

"Just a group of thieves, daring to confuse the public with demonic words!"

Ju Shou immediately stood out, looking down at the boundless Jizhou Huang Jin, and said to Lu Zhi: "General Lu, although the Huang Jin are numerous, the rear Julu has been broken, and their grain and forage are insufficient; they will definitely be anxious to attack the city."

"As long as we hold on, we will definitely be able to reverse the situation!"

"Good!"

Lu Zhi nodded and immediately gave the order.

"Giant bed crossbows, giant catapults, arrow towers, prepare!"

More than twenty incomparably tall bed crossbows, catapults, and dozens of arrow towers were aimed at the Huang Jin army below.

As an inter-commandery city, Yecheng's city defense capability was at least ten times that of a commandery city like Julu.

Once it operated at full capacity, it was also quite terrifying.

The Yellow Turban army also knew the power of Yecheng's city defense equipment and stopped outside the range of the bed crossbows, catapults, and arrow towers.

A group of Huang Jin began to build siege towers and scaling ladder carts.

"The Huang Jin army is also constantly growing; now they can independently build siege equipment..."

Liu Bei saw the movements of that Huang Jin ocean and could not help but worry.

At this time, Guan Yu, who was always taciturn, said to Liu Bei: "Big Brother, the battles during this period have greatly improved my strength. When Zhang Jiao appears, I will kill into the Huang Jin army and take Zhang Jiao's head directly."

Liu Bei nodded and looked at Zhang Fei again: "Third Brother, how is your state?"

Zhang Fei answered heroically: "Me too!"

Liu Bei nodded.

Indeed, if they could kill the rebel leader Zhang Jiao, the Huang Jin army would likely collapse directly.

But wanting to achieve this goal was not very easy.

After all, Zhang Jiao and the others all mastered demonic arts, and no one knew what kind of strange power they possessed.

While the Huang Jin army was preparing for battle, the local Jizhou soldiers were transporting bundles of bows and crossbow arrows to the city wall.

Gears were turning, and large equipment similar to mechanical arts were moving up and down, transporting troops and supplies nervously.

Lu Zhi allocated a batch of troops to Su Li, who had arrived.

Two thousand Changshui Camp Strongbowmen.

Not only that, but a young general also brought troops to find Su Li: "Lord Su, the Inspector ordered me to come and assist you."

Su Li observed this general, who looked young, only in his early twenties.

"Who are you?"

"Zhang He, Military Sima of the Jizhou Inspectorate."

That young general reported his name.

Zhang He!

Su Li's eyes moved slightly.

This person was also a great talent.

Active from the beginning of the Three Kingdoms until the end, he made many great contributions to the Great Wei.

He even resisted Zhuge Liang's northern expedition, and in the Battle of Jieting, he crushed the Shu Kingdom's Ma Su, forcing Zhuge Liang to retreat to Han Zhong.

Seeing the young general in front of him, it was hard for him to associate this with Zhang He, one of the famous Five Generals of Liang of the Great Wei in the future.

However, thinking about it carefully, it was about right; it was still the Eastern Han period, and according to history, there were still more than ten years until the true Three Kingdoms period.

Currently, Zhang He was serving as a Military Sima under the command of Jizhou Inspector Wang Fen.

Jizhou was indeed a state that all military strategists had to fight for during the Three Kingdoms period; it was truly a place where outstanding people emerged.

Just the good generals and strategists Su Li had seen included Ju Shou, Zhang He, and others.

Wait...

Compared to Ju Shou, the current Zhang He's official position did not seem high...

He was just a mere Military Sima leading hundreds of people.

That is to say, if he could win over Zhang He during this period, perhaps there would still be a chance.

Su Li's heart could not help but have some small schemes, wanting to poach Jizhou Inspector Wang Fen's corner again.

It had to be said that the position of Jizhou Inspector was truly blessed; with Ju Shou in literature and Zhang He in martial arts, he started with two great talents.

Unfortunately, whether it was Wang Fen or the later Han Fu, during their tenure as Jizhou Inspector, they could not unleash their talents.

Even the third lord, Yuan Shao, could not use them completely well.

Especially Yuan Shao, who had many talented people under his command.

He did not value Ju Shou and Zhang He at all.

It was a complete waste of talent.

Su Li remained calm on the surface, but in his heart, he was already pondering how to abduct Zhang He.
