The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 184 The East Gate

Guo Tai led more than fifty riders and hurried all the way.

It took only six days to reach the pass camp north of Wangwu Mountain. At this time, Hu Cai had gathered more than [-] Yellow Turban troops in the pass camp.

Hu Cai also reported to Guo Tai the news that he sent envoys to the eldest son city to investigate, so Guo Tai was not in a hurry to leave the city after knowing about it, and he was also a little curious about Shangdang County.

"Is this the camp of the Taihang Yellow Turban Army?"

Guo Tai stood on the camp wall and looked at the camp of the Taihang Yellow Turban Army in the distance, and couldn't help admiring.

"The formation of the village is orderly, and the soldiers are heavily guarded. It is worthy of being the Taihang Yellow Turban who defeated the Han army in Hanoi head-on. It just looks like a murderous look from a distance."

Guo Tai withdrew his gaze, looked at Hu Cai who was at the side, and asked, "Didn't you send an envoy to the eldest son city before, how long has it been since today, should he come back?"

Hu Cai replied: "It's been thirteen days now, how long will it take from us to the eldest son city, this..."

Seeing Hu Cai's faltering, Guo Tai knew that Hu Cai probably didn't understand, so he waved his hands helplessly, and said angrily, "You sent people to the eldest son city, and you didn't even know how many days it would take you..."

Guo Tai stopped talking, because a group of cavalry from the Yellow Turban Army was galloping towards the camp.

"Could it be back?"

Hu Cai leaned forward and looked into the distance.

"There seems to be something wrong..."

Hu Cai's face was a little serious, because he didn't see the soldiers he had sent before in that team of Yellow Turban cavalry.

Guo Tai asked with some doubts, "What's wrong?"

Hu Cai's expression turned ugly, and he replied, "None of the people I sent have returned."

"Shouldn't be..."

Guo Tai frowned slightly. If these soldiers were disguised as soldiers from Shangdang County, how could there be so many soldiers in Shangdang County? Even if there were, how would they guard against the Yellow Turban Army in Taihang Mountain?It doesn't make sense at all.

But soon, Guo Tai's brows relaxed, because he found an acquaintance among the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army.

Guo Tai immediately tilted his head and ordered: "Open the gate of the camp."

Hu Cai was a little puzzled. He didn't know why Guo Tai ordered to open the gate of the camp instead, "Here, Shuai Qu..."

"Open the camp gate."

Guo Tai did not explain, and quickly walked down the camp wall with the guards behind him, and the neighing of a horse sounded in Hu Cai's ears, and Hu Cai knew that it was Guo Tai and his guards who had already mounted their horses. .

Since Guo Tai did not explain, Hu Cai had no choice but to see that the soldiers at the winch of the camp gate were still in a daze, and scolded angrily: "Why are you still in a daze, didn't you hear Shuai Qu say to open the camp gate! "

The soldiers standing guard on the camp wall frantically turned the winch, and the camp gate was quickly opened under the pull of the winch.

The hurried sound of horseshoes sounded, and Guo Tai and others who had been waiting in the camp gate for a long time had already galloped out of the camp.

Hu Cai nervously looked at the Taihang Yellow Turban cavalry outside the camp.

Seeing Guo Tai and other cavalry galloping out, only a Yellow Turban Army dressed as a general led the horse out of the cavalry formation, but the rest of the Taihang Yellow Turban Cavalry did not move.

"call"

Guo Taile stayed on the horse, turned over and jumped off the horse, and the general of the Yellow Turban Army who led the horse out of the formation on the opposite side also jumped off the horse.

Guo Tai raised his fist and slammed it on Gong Du's breastplate, and scolded with a smile: "Gong Manzi, you fucking know to come to see your brother."

Gong Du stood still and laughed loudly: "I heard that you are in Wangwu Mountain, but you flew all the way here. Those little bastards under your command are probably still a day or two away from here."

"By the way, where is that kid Hu Cai? I haven't seen him for a few years, but he has a lot of prestige. I have to compete with him again to kill this kid's prestige."

Guo Tai laughed and said: "Last time you cut off his precious sword, Hu Cai felt sorry for more than half a month, this time I'm afraid he won't dare to tease you again."

"Advanced camp, when we meet brothers today, we must not return drunk!"

Gong Du raised his fist and also shouted loudly: "If you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

……

As night fell, the outside of the pass camp was brightly lit.

The camp of the Taihang Yellow Turban Army was extremely lively, and all the Yellow Turban Army soldiers in the Wangwu Pass camp ran out and poured into the camp of the Taihang Yellow Turban Army.

Today is a day worth celebrating.

Taihang Yellow Turbans and Wangwu Yellow Turbans are now the world's largest two Yellow Turban armies.

"Go out the east gate and don't care about returning."

"Come to the door, feel sad."

Someone in the army was singing loudly.

The title of this song is Dongmenxing, which is a folk song collected by the Yuefu in the Han Dynasty.

What the poem sings is the reality of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the government forced the people to rebel.With no clothes, no food, and no way out, regardless of his wife's crying and persuasion, he resolutely "draws his sword and goes to the east gate".

"There is no bucket of rice in the ounce, and there is no hanging clothes on the shelf."

"Draw out your sword and go to the east gate. The children and mothers in the house hold their clothes and cry:"

"His family hopes to be rich and honored, and the concubine will feed the king with you."

"The top uses Canglang Tian, ​​and the bottom should use this yellow mouth. This is not the case!"

"Hey! Okay! It's too late for me to go! It's hard to live with white hair these days."

Guo Tai sat in the tent of the Chinese army, quietly listening to the singing beside his ear.

The loud singing in the camp reminded Guo Tai of his life in the past, day after day, year after year, he dared not neglect the slightest, labor, taxes, and taxes were like a mountain weighing on his shoulders.

He didn't dare to stop for a moment, and he didn't dare to neglect for a moment.

"There is no bucket of rice in the ounce, and there is no hanging clothes on the shelf."

Outside the military tent, more people sang loudly.

However, the situation at home did not improve because of Guo Tai's hard work, but he was barely able to survive. Every night, Guo Tai slept on the straw mat, and the prayer in his heart was just to hope that the year would be better, that he would gain more, and be able to Save up some surplus food.

Guo Tai drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, and asked Gong Du, "Can all soldiers in the army sing this song?"

Gong Du nodded and replied, "This is taught by Fu Zhu in the army to the soldiers. It seems to be written by the lord."

"Xu An..."

Guo Tai was a little disappointed, he picked up his wine glass and staggered out of the big tent.

Looking up, outside the tents all around, there were soldiers wearing yellow scarves sitting on their heads. They were feasting and chatting loudly, their faces and expressions were extremely excited.

Looking at Guo Tai who walked out of the tent, these soldiers all raised their arms and shouted at him.

Alcohol affected Guo Tai's brain, he felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to Guanghe seven years ago.

Wrapped in a yellow scarf and holding a sharp knife, he followed closely behind the three generals, surrounded by endless comrades wearing yellow scarves like him.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous!"

Shouting frantically, they invaded Julu City, opened the granary in the city, and opened the granary to release grain to save tens of thousands of hungry people outside the city.

That night, in the camp, they were also so happy, they sang loudly, they raised their arms, and cheered loudly to their general.

The cool wind blows away the mist in Guo Tai's eyes.

Guo Tai raised his head and looked at the stars all over the sky, his gaze gradually became firm.

He raised his arms and shouted hoarsely: "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky will be established. The year is Jiazi, and the world will be blessed!"

The crowd stopped talking and eating, and they were a little dazed when they heard the shout of the handsome man of the Yellow Turban Army at the top of his lungs.

But then, all the soldiers around Guo Tai stood up and responded enthusiastically to Guo Tai.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous!"

The shouting gradually spread throughout the entire camp of the Taihang Yellow Turban Army, and the next moment more people shouted.

The deafening shout spread to all directions and resounded through the mountains!

Chapter 185

In the Yamen of the eldest son's city, all the generals of the Yellow Turban Army gathered.

Today is a very important day for Taipingdao.

Xu An was wearing a khaki war robe and sat on top of the chief. Gong Du, Liu Pi, Zhang Yan, Xu Huang, Yan Zhong, Zhou Cang, Bai Rao and other Yellow Turban Army generals lined up on both sides.

The sound of chanting sutras from Taiping Dao Fuzhu lingered in the hall of the government office.

Yan Zhonglang said in a loud voice: "Xuan, Guo Tai, commander of the Taiping Road, and all the generals under his command have entered the hall."

The yellow angel in the hall repeated Yan Zhong's words and spread them outside the hall.

Guo Tai tidied up his armor, and walked slowly into the hall with Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai.

"Give Guo Tai the title of General Baibo, lead the Baibo army, and guard Wangwu and Taiyue."

"Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai are appointed as Captain Baibo, and they belong to Guo Tai's control."

Yan Zhong's deep voice came into Guo Tai's ears clearly.

"Guo Tai, take orders!"

"Han Siam, Li Le and Hu Cai take orders!"

Guo Tai and the others knelt on the ground and responded respectfully.

Xu An stood up, walked down the first seat slowly, and took the seal from Guo Tai's hand. This seal is the proof that Guo Tai is the commander of the Taiping Road.

Then he put a tiger talisman made of white iron on Guo Tai's palm.

The sound of chanting gradually became high, Guo Tai took the tiger talisman with both hands, and echoed in unison with Han Xian and others behind him: "The heart of Taoism will not rest until death!"

Zhongping three years, November 23.

Under the leadership of Guo Tai, more than [-] Wangwu Yellow Turban Army formally joined Xu An's command.

On November [-]th, Ji An and Xu Wu, who were surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army in Taiyue Mountain, and the two bandit armies led by them were also defeated by Zhang Yan in one fell swoop.

Zhang Yan defeated the enemy army and beheaded thousands of ranks. The bandit chiefs Xu Wu and Ji An died in battle. He had to surrender more than [-] soldiers and gathered more than [-] bandit followers from Taiyue Mountain.

After Xu An received the news of the meeting between Guo Tai and Gong Du, he also learned of the battle situation in the northwest of Wangwu Mountain, so he ordered Zhang Yan to go south to help the Wangwu Yellow Turban Army.

Wangwu's bandit army was immediately flanked by the Yellow Turban Army. Seeing that there was no hope of victory and the foreign aid was cut off, those bandits in Wangwu Mountain who were still fighting in the corner finally lost their will to resist.

They were completely defeated by the Yellow Turban Army led by Han Siam in Wangwu, and the bandit forces in Wangwu Mountain were finally completely wiped out. The Yellow Turbans in Wangwu also captured more than 5000 bandits.

This is the end.

The two mountains of Taiyue and Wangwu were also planted with Huang Tian's battle flag and belonged to Huang Tian's rule.

The Yellow Turban Army completely controlled the periphery of Shangdang County, cutting off the connection between Shangdang County and the rest of the Han Empire.

Xu An didn't completely dismantle the Yellow Turban of Wangwu. Even if Guo Tai was attached, he still had to consider Guo Tai's emotions.

Therefore, Xu An just separated more than 3000 people from the Wangwu Yellow Turban Army and incorporated them into the army directly under him, because most of the parts under his command are now in a state of absence.

The remaining [-] people were divided into seven groups by Xu An to form the Baibo Army, which was under the control of Guo Tai, and all the defense affairs of Taiyue Mountain and Wangwu Mountain were handed over to Guo Tai.

Now in the county of Shangdang County, there are more than [-] soldiers directly under Xu An's command.

The external threat has been lifted for the time being, but the internal problems have also come to the fore. Counting the soldiers stationed at each pass, Xu An now has more than 8 soldiers under his command.

And the people in the entire Shangdang County, counting the residents of Taiyue Mountain, Wangwu Mountain, Taihang Mountain, and Sanshan, are only 18. That is to say, every two people need to support a sergeant, which is obviously extremely expensive. Unreasonable.

Fortunately, Xu An seized a large number of powerful soldiers, as well as the money and food stored by the Han court in Shangdang County, and Guo Tai also stored some money and food, so it is naturally possible to maintain the army's soldiers.

But this is all just sitting and eating, not a long-term solution. The Black Mountain Army and the Baibo Army in history basically relied on looting to supplement themselves by obtaining money and food.

"A husband's things begin with vitality"

"Essence Qi is natural, condensed into one, it is called heaven; it is divided to give birth to yin, and it is called two; because the heaven and earth, yin and yang combine to give birth to people, it is called three."

"If a person has qi, he will have spirit, if there is spirit, he will have qi, if the spirit goes away, the qi will die, and if the qi dies, the spirit will go. Therefore, if there is no spirit, he will die, and if he has no qi, he will die."

Next to a market in Tunliu City, a Taiping Dao Fu Zhu in a Taoist robe is explaining the scriptures of Taiping Dao on a high platform.

The surroundings of the high platform were surrounded by people, almost impenetrable.
