In just a few days, Zhao Yi received the news of Changping's defeat and Lu Zhi's withdrawal.

Not everyone has integrity, those noble people are actually a minority, and more are actually greedy for life and afraid of death.

The defeat of the Han army broke down the spirit of all the powerful people in Xiangyuan City, and also broke Zhao Yi's psychological defense.

Most of them don't want to die, most of them are afraid of death, they have no worries about food and clothing, they are high above them, they enjoy the treatment that slaves and civilians cannot enjoy in their lifetime, so most of them cherish their lives even more.

When the forward of the Yellow Turban Army arrived not far from the south of the city, Zhao Yi handed in the letter of surrender very simply after receiving the letter of surrender from the Yellow Turban Army.

Shangdang County has become an isolated island, wrapped in layers of Taihang yellow turbans, and the Han army in Shangdang County has completely lost the power to resist.

The city of Jinyang was broken, and the city of Gaodu fell. These fortified cities could not stop the Taihang Yellow Turban.

With the lessons learned from the past, Zhao Yi did not think that relying on those rural Forts and low city walls could resist the progress of the Taihang Yellow Turban.

Although the "moth thieves" under the official propaganda did all kinds of evil, looting everywhere.

But Zhao Yi, as a native of Bingzhou, naturally heard about what the Taihang Yellow Turban did when they invaded Bingzhou in the second year of Zhongping, and also knew what happened after Jinyang City was broken.

Judging from the information obtained, Xu An's Taihang Yellow Turbans were indeed very different from ordinary bandits.

The military discipline of the Taihang Yellow Turbans was quite strict, and they did not harass the people along the way. Even after the city was broken, they mostly did not offend the people in the city.

Only when the city of Jinyang was conquered did the Taihang Yellow Turbans plunder some medical artisans and artisans from the city.

This is also an important point for Zhao Yi to make up his mind.

The vanguard of the Yellow Turban Army had already entered the city at this time, and He Man had taken over the defense of the entire Xiangyuan City with the vanguard soldiers.

As Zhao Yi had heard before, the Yellow Turban Army did not burn, kill and loot after entering the city. Instead, after taking over the city defense, they sent out patrols to patrol the streets to maintain law and order.

Zhao Yi looked at the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army and sharp soldiers who passed by in front of him, and couldn't help but tremble with fear, and he became a little bit more determined about the choice he made, and the awe on the faces of those powerful people behind Zhao Yi deepened a little bit .

These Yellow Turban soldiers were not as unbearable as they imagined. Wearing thin clothes and holding simple weapons, they defeated the Han army by relying on their numerical superiority.

Although Zhao Yi didn't know soldiers, from his point of view, these Yellow Turban troops were even more like the Han army than the Han army. The spirit and equipment of these troops were superior to ordinary county soldiers.

Noisy horseshoes and footsteps approached from far away, followed by deafening shouts penetrated into the ears of Zhao Yi and others.

Zhao Yi and the others followed the sound and looked towards the corridor of the city gate. In their sight, a big khaki flag was slowly heading towards the city, and countless yellow angels in heavy armor surrounded Xu An. , defending their leader.

A large number of earth-yellow banners clustered around the big banner, the gleaming armor, and the shining cold halberds, all of which showed the might of the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhao Yi raised the watch slightly with both hands, and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at it.

The sound of horseshoes approached, and in Zhao Yi's sight, a red horse stood in front of him. There were many cloth strips with scriptures written on the horse.

Zhao Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and did not dare to speak, but raised the lowering table in his hand a little bit higher.

In the current situation, people are like swordsmen and I am fish and meat. Zhao Yi understands that his wealth and life depend on Xu An's thoughts, so his attitude is already respectful and cannot be more respectful.

With the sound of footsteps, a yellow angel stepped forward slowly and took the surrender watch from Zhao Yi's hand. As the weight of the surrender watch in his hand dissipated, Zhao Yi felt relieved.

"Zhao Jiyu, I haven't seen you for several years, how are you doing recently?"

Zhao Yi was startled, and suddenly raised his head, the voice was very familiar to him.

"This……"

Zhao Yiyuan opened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

What shocked him was not Xu An being surrounded by all the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, nor the strict formation of the Yellow Turban Army, but Yan Zhong who followed Xu An.

Chapter 168

The Shangdang Han army was overthrown in Changping, Lu Zhi withdrew, and the entire Shangdang Han army was no longer able to fight.

The Taihang Yellow Turban was in full swing, and the remaining Han troops everywhere either surrendered or were wiped out.

The envoy of the Yellow Turban Army took Yan Zhong’s letter of payment to the Yellow Turban Army and hurried away. The countless cities along the way were all determined by handing over. Fallen.

And for those cities that dared to resist, all the powerful and officials in the city were killed by the Yellow Turban Army without exception, which also made more people lose their determination to resist.

In the third year of Zhongping, on October [-], the entire Shangdang territory was brought under the rule of Xu An.

The troops staying in the Taihang Mountains also continued to march into Shangdang County, and only a few strong men in the entire Shangdang were still holding on to Fort Wu and did not surrender.

In fact, it was only a matter of time for Xu An to remove these tungsten castles, but Xu An was not in a hurry to remove these tungsten castles.

Most of the sergeants under Xu An's command have experienced battles, but more soldiers will definitely be recruited in the future to deal with the upcoming battles, and these stubborn and powerful tungsten fortresses are the best training grounds.

In history, the population of Shangdang County is second only to Taiyuan County, with about 12 households and a total population of [-], not counting some hidden populations.

Although there are no specific statistics yet, including the residents in the Taihang Mountains, it is estimated that there are more than 17 people under Xu An's rule.

After repeated battles, the army directly under Xu An's command now only has more than 2 people. In the battle of Gaodu City, although the Yellow Turban Army was fully prepared, they still left more than 2000 corpses under Gaodu City.

In the Battle of Bachishan, Liu Pi led his army to successfully stop the Han army's assault, but suffered heavy casualties. Liu Pi originally had more than 1 people, but when the Han army withdrew, only [-] was left with fighting strength. More than [-] people were killed and more than [-] people were killed or injured.

Zhongping three years, October [-]th.

Yellow flags were planted all over the city of the eldest son, and soldiers with yellow scarves on their heads stood solemnly on the city wall, and soldiers coming and going walked on it.

There were few pedestrians on the street, and it was quite cold, but from time to time, a sound of orderly footsteps could be heard, and the people in the eldest son city could see that the sergeants in armor and yellow scarves were holding spears and lined up neatly. The queue passed the street.

The city gates everywhere were wide open, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army in iron armor, led by the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, conscientiously checked the soldiers and civilians coming and going.

"Da da da……"

The leader of the yellow turban army guarding the city gate turned his ears slightly, he raised his head, looked over the shoulder of the civilian entering the city in front of him, and looked behind the civilian.

More than 30 knights with heads wrapped in yellow scarves are coming on horseback.

"alert."

The yellow turban army led, waved their hands, signaled the people near the city gate to get out of the way, and shouted in a deep voice.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army near the city gate all clenched their weapons.

The sound of horseshoes gradually increased, and the team leader of the Yellow Turban Army also saw clearly what was in front of them.

Behind the thirty or so knights were seven or eight expensive carriages, and there were more than 100 people accompanying them.

"By the order of the great virtuous teacher."

A knight came on horseback and handed over the seal in his hand to the leader of the military pawns guarding the city gate.

"Call the heads of all the families in Shangdang County to come to the eldest son."

The military pawn team took the seal from the knight, inspected it carefully, and handed it back after confirming that it was correct.

"Everyone has worked hard along the way."

After the soldier's team leader gave a military salute to the leading knight, he didn't procrastinate, and immediately directed the soldiers behind him to get out of the way.

Riding on his horse, Bai Rao lowered his head slightly, and solemnly bowed back to the soldiers.

"Fellow..."

Like-minded, like-minded, like-minded, like-minded people.

Every time I think about it, Bai Rao always has a kind of warmth in his chest.

In the Yellow Turban Army, there was a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and there were people from all over the place, and it was confusing to address each other. Later, Xu An ordered that people in the army should address each other.

Over time, people in the Yellow Turban Army called them comrades.

Bai Rao shook his head, clearing his mind. He looked at the road out of the city gate, turned his head and said coldly.

"Now that the eldest son has come to meet the great virtuous teacher, how can a sinner sit on the frame."

"Pass down the order, let them throw down the frame, walk into the city, and meet the great virtuous teacher!"

"promise."

After the accompanying knight sang a promise, he turned his horse's head and transmitted Bai Rao's order verbatim back to the carriage behind him.

In the frame group, there was a sudden flutter of chickens and dogs, and it became noisy.

After a while, those patriarchs from powerful and pampered families all obediently got off the frame under the scolding of the Yellow Turban Knights.

Bai Rao led the horse, and condescendingly looked down at the group of tyrants in fine attire in front of him.

"Enter the city."

Bai Rao snorted coldly, waved the whip in his hand, and ordered.

Those tyrants in fancy clothes didn't dare to disobey at all. They lowered their heads and walked towards the eldest son city under the guard of the Yellow Turban Army knights.

Those yellow scarf soldiers in armor looked extremely fierce in their eyes, and they didn't even dare to look up at the soldiers around them.

In the rumors of these "moth thieves", they are even more terrifying than ghosts. It is said that there are alchemists in the Yellow Turban Army who can use magic arts, calling wind and rain, flying sand and moving stones, which makes everyone terrified.

The "prestige all over the world" Zhu Jun was beheaded by Xu Anzhen, a great virtuous teacher of the Yellow Turban Army. Lu Zhi, who was superior in military strategy, was defeated in Bachi Mountain. Wang Gong led an army of [-] and was defeated in Changping in just one day.

If the Yellow Turban Army really doesn't know magic arts, how can they win consecutive victories.

The tyrants became more and more frightened as they walked, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army all looked at them with unhappy expressions, and some even had a naked murderous intent on their faces.

These tyrants have traveled the road in the eldest son city many times, but none of them is so difficult.

The abnormality here also attracted the attention of all the people in the city. After the Yellow Turban Army entered the eldest son city, they dispatched a large number of troops to maintain law and order.

Under Yan Zhong's governance, it has become orderly within a few days.

The people in the city gradually felt relieved. The Yellow Turbans who entered the city were not as vicious and evil as the court had advertised.

He even helped the people in the city to do some chores. After many days, although the city was still cold, it gradually became lively.

The gazes from all around were focused on the group of walking tyrants, and everyone felt as if there were thorns on their backs, but no one dared to leave the queue to avoid those piercing gazes.

Because those yellow scarf knights on tall horses were behind them, watching their every move.

Chapter 169 The Conqueror of Shangdang

"Isn't this the owner of the Guo family..."

A sharp-eyed passer-by murmured in a low voice that he was in the fabric business and had met him once.See 'Mao. Line, Chinese. Chinese, Net

These tycoons in fancy clothes attracted the attention of the common people on the street, and there were discussions on both sides of the street for a while.

These people are all dignified figures, so it is normal to be recognized, but in the past these people would come here on luxurious carriages, but today they are dejected and escorted by the Yellow Turban Army.

Guo Sheng is 57 years old this year. He is the head of the Guo family in Shangdang, and he is in good health.

Walking all the way from the city gate, although he was only out of breath, the eyes of the people along the way made him feel particularly dazzling.

The gentry valued their reputation, but now they came all the way to be gentle and disgraced, with no face left, parading the streets like criminals.

Guo Sheng raised his head slightly and looked around. He was surrounded by people he knew well. They were originally high-ranking figures in Shangdang County, the heads of various families, and the principals.

"Hurry up!"

But after hearing a cold shout, the horsewhip waved in the air, and there was a sharp sound, and there was a slight commotion in the crowd, and they didn't dare to procrastinate, and their pace quickened a little.

Guo Sheng quickly lowered his head, feeling even more nervous.

All the powerful families who dared to resist in Shangdang County were wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army without exception, and only a few powerful families who built tungsten forts in dangerous places were spared.

However, Guo Sheng knew clearly that it was only a matter of time before the destruction of those Wubaos. The fortified Gaodu City could not resist the advance of the Yellow Turban Army, and the vast ocean-like army could only be stopped by a mere Wubao.

Now the gentry tyrants in Shangdang County who have not surrendered for the time being have been wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army, and the officials in Xiancheng can also be preserved.

In the seventh year of Guanghe, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Yellow Turban Army was killing and powerful, which made Guo Sheng lose his determination to stick to Wubao and resist the "moth thieves". There is still a chance of meeting Xu An.

So Guo Sheng chose to obey the order and enter the eldest son city to meet Xu An. After all, the Guo family in Shangdang County has hundreds of years of foundation, and Guo Sheng didn't want to throw it away easily.

Most of the people around had the same idea as Guo Sheng, but even if they had made up their minds, they were still extremely apprehensive.

During the Battle of Changping a few days ago, each family sent out a lot of soldiers, so naturally they were also afraid of Xu Anqiu's reckoning.

The further you go, the deeper you go into the hinterland of the eldest son, the more you go into the hinterland of the eldest son, the fewer and fewer people around you, and the more and more soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army around you.

The banners of the Yellow Turban Army also began to appear in the surrounding area, and the khaki-colored banners were erected high, buzzing under the agitation of the north wind.

The banner with scriptures swaying in the wind made it even more sacred, and the soldiers standing around added pressure to everyone.

The mansion near the eldest son, the sense of oppression is even greater.

The soldiers guarding the government office are all yellow angels with tiger-striped banners on their backs and heavy armor. These yellow angels who have experienced many battles are far more powerful than ordinary soldiers on the periphery.

They are even more useless to kill on the battlefield, and they seem to have a faint evil spirit on their bodies. Ordinary people just look at them, and they feel a little sad in their hearts.

And at this time, these yellow angels are all staring at the powerful men who are moving forward.
