C148

In the Great Lu County Guangzong County City, all the people wandering on the streets were xanthopanax soldiers. Those who did not run were forced to join the xanthopanax. Suddenly, a troop of cavalrymen came running down the street. A group of more than a hundred cavalrymen, surrounded by a group of high-ranking officers, were running down the street. They seemed to be running towards the magistrate court as if there was no one around.

"Second Brother, has Big Brother come out?"

The warhorse had not completely stopped yet, but the high-ranking officer on the horse shouted as he jumped down from his horse, throwing the horse reins in his hand to the guards behind him. His movements were very fluid and his figure was agile as he flew into the county courthouse's lobby.

"Not yet. I'm anxiously waiting."

The one called second brother was actually Zhang Bao, the second brother of the spiritual leader of the xanthopanax. He walked around the hall and occasionally glanced at the back of the hall. Seeing the high-ranking officer on horseback walk in, his tightly knitted brows relaxed slightly. He then revealed a rare smile towards the high-ranking officer.

"Third Brother, is there any movement from the officials outside the city?"

The one called Third Brother was Zhang Liang, the Third Brother of Zhang Jiao, who led about half of the Guangzong and stayed outside of the city. There were simply too many soldiers on xanthopanax, such that even a small Guangzong City could not carry so many soldiers. They were forced to live outside the city in half to assist in the defense of the city.

"No, those official dog s were only concerned with digging the trench and did not plan to attack."

"Hmph hmph, these official dog want to trap us to death. When Big Bro comes out of seclusion, he must teach those official dog a lesson and teach them a lesson, let them know how powerful we are. "

"That's right, second brother, when big brother comes out, you must properly advise him. You can't stay in Guangzong and don't move anymore. The entire nation's xanthopanax s have all been defeated, no matter how hard we try to defend against them, I am afraid it will not be able to last for long, and will eventually be breached by the official dog. "

"Yeah, but big brother won't listen, he has to stay in Guangzong. If we wait for the official dog to dig all the trenches, then we won't be able to escape. "

"Reporting..." Earth General, Human Generals, General Tianguang has come out. "

The two brothers were discussing about the way out of xanthopanax, when a personal guard suddenly pushed open the main door of the hall, barging in, and reported the good news of Zhang Jiao coming out. Both of them revealed an expression of joy. Letting out a long breath, they ran towards the back of the hall.

"Big Brother, are you alright?"

Zhang Jiao was kneeling on the Divine Altar, his sallow face devoid of any color, as he closed his eyes expressionlessly. His long seclusion had made his mind wretched and his body extremely weak. After waiting for a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, and sized up Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, and sighed.

"Why are you guys so impatient? Just those tens of thousands of soldiers scared you? In my eyes, they are nothing more than living corpses. How hard would it be to break through them? See if I can kill them all tomorrow. "

"Big brother, are you saying that we will attack the official dog tomorrow?"

"Yes. This time, when we go into seclusion, I received the will of the heavens to eliminate the official dog, the time is tomorrow. "

"Oh, that's great. We are waiting for this day."

"Alright, you guys can go out and prepare. We'll attack the army tomorrow."

"Big brother, you should rest for now. We'll go out and prepare."

Zhang Jiao waved his hands towards Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, spoke weakly and chased them out. Seeing Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang leaving the rear hall, Zhang Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. His body slanted and he laid on the divine altar. He could not hold on any longer. If Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang had left later, he would have collapsed on the ground.

Seclusion was not an easy task. A practitioner, regardless of having a master, not knowing about qi skills, or having a foundation of power, would have to cultivate in seclusion. They would often go through days or even months of suffering and suffering, or even lose their life.

A part of people, before leaving their function, have all kinds of bizarre and bizarre nightmares after a daily sleep, often in a hazy state, feel that they are suddenly soaring above the nine heavens, and then plummeting into the abyss, or burrowing into the earth, or swimming into the river.

Regardless of whether it was an illusion or the state of mind of a person undergoing closed door cultivation, after more than ten days of closed door cultivation, Zhang Jiao had complete confidence in defeating the Imperial army. He believed that his abilities had already appeared, and that he could fight with the Imperial army.

It was a cold autumn morning, and the wind was cold. Even the sentries stamped their feet to keep them warm. At this time, in the cavalry of Youzhou's camp, the soldiers who had trained for the whole day were still sleeping, and Yang Lin was also sound asleep.

Suddenly, a few imperial soldiers who were riding on horses rushed towards the Youzhou's camp, beside them seemed to be the Youzhou Army's camp. The chaotic sounds of horse hooves breaking the silence of the early morning startled the sentries, they immediately rushed to the entrance of the camp and opened the camp's door.

"Lord, the enemy is attacking."

It was as if he was still in a dream, when Yang Lin was suddenly awakened by the shouting. Nothing was more effective than the word enemy attack, as long as he heard these two words, no matter how nice he slept, he would jump out of his dream. As he dressed, he listened to the reports of the court officials and herald s.

"Master Yang Lin, early in the morning, before the sky was even bright, a large group of xanthopanax s suddenly rushed out from the Guangzong City, straight towards the imperial army's camp. Fortunately, they had been discovered by the Outpost. The imperial government's army was in a panic and was in the middle of a fierce battle. General Huangfu Song ordered his master to quickly provide reinforcements, making it imperative for him to eliminate Zhang Jiao. "

"Order all cavalry of Youzhou to assemble urgently."

When Huangfu Song's herald finished speaking, Yang Lin immediately gave out an order. He understood in his heart that this was probably Zhang Jiao's last struggle. If he could kill Zhang Jiao in the battle, it would be more meaningful than him dying from illness.

When Yang Lin arrived, Imperial army was battling with Zhang Jiao's xanthopanax, but when exorcism reported that Yang Lin's cavalry was about to arrive, Zhang Jiao called for reinforcements without hesitation. The charging troops stopped and all returned to the array.

"Order the cavalry of Youzhou to gather at the sides and wait."

Huangfu Song's herald ran over once again and gave the order to fight. Actually, even without the herald, Yang Lin knew his position. For a battle like this, where both sides were arranging in formation, the cavalry would definitely take on the mission of surprise, as for when it would happen, it would depend on the needs of the battlefield.

The Wu Family Shop was the official residence of the imperial government. It was an ordinary place, and because Huangfu Song chose to set up camp here, he was destined to become an extraordinary place. In the desolate wilderness, other than the endless dried up grass, there was only the xanthopanax's yellow scarf.

The autumn sky of Jizhou was particularly yellow, even the few clouds in the sky were also yellow. The leaves of the trees in the valley in the distance were also yellow. They swayed in the autumn wind, threatening to fall at any moment. The only weeds left in the fields were bent over, silently waiting in the autumn wind for winter.

Yang Lin carefully observed the great formation of the xanthopanax. They were in an orderly line, holding their pikes and sabers high, the flags that filled the sky were fluttering in the autumn wind. All the soldiers were wrapped in yellow scarves, looking exactly the same as the color of the ground.

Obviously, Zhang Jiao also knew about military formations, he was definitely different from the other General of the Yellow Scarf Army s. In his early years, Zhang Jiao believed in the theory of Huang Lao. He had also studied the very popular art of divination in the Han Dynasty and was very familiar with folk medicine and witchcraft.

Just over five hundred steps away from the imperial official army formation, where ordinary arrows could not reach, was the place where the arrow was shot. The xanthopanax's troops seemed to be making a final adjustment to deal a fatal blow to the imperial army.

Between the xanthopanax and the imperial army, there was a vast expanse of land. When the sunlight shone on the withered grass, the land looked like autumn. Almost all of the wild flowers and weeds had fallen asleep, and no one cared about the sound of the battle in front of them. A flock of crows flew in from nowhere and slowly circled in the air.

Perhaps, only these sparrows were the most relaxed, the most relaxed in the entire Wu family. They flew back and forth in front of the two armies as if studying their formations and arrays, but Yang Lin had also given up on understanding why the humans were so interested in killing others, as he had even researched so many ways to kill them.

From afar, the xanthopanax had already lined up in a straight line formation. After Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were in a formation, the main forces would gather in the center. The front lines would open up in an arrow formation. The vanguard's "arrows" could withstand the pressure from the enemy's two wings, but their offensive capabilities were a bit weaker, and the weakness of the formation was still on the tail side.

Looking at the formation that the xanthopanax had set up, which was more than five kilometers wide, with a minimum of two hundred thousand people, Yang Lin had a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was watching a movie, a war film from the era of cold weapons. How much investment would be required? The attacking side seemed to be playing a game, the soldiers were like a bunch of puppets, searching for their position under the shouts of the Generals.

Huangfu Song, Yuan Shao and the other generals were positioned in the center of the formation, with the troops at the outer perimeter surrounding the formation. The Lance Soldier and the archer were outside, and the mobile forces were inside, so when they were fighting with the enemy enemies, Huangfu Song's intention was clear, it was to concentrate on defense, and see what tricks Zhang Jiao could pull off.

The formation of the perimeter formation was dense and strong in defensive power. Due to the formation being dense, the mobility was limited and there was a lack of change. Even if the enemy was defeated, it would still be difficult to chase them down. In order to make up for the flaws in their attacks, Huangfu Song had placed Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei at the side, and even Yang Lin had been arranged at the side, they all had their own defensive positions.

Huangfu Song was extremely proficient with this type of arrangement, as they would often spar with each other over array formations. After dozens of years of actual combat, they had even improved their old-fashioned array formations, increasing their offensive capabilities and increasing the defensive capabilities of the array formations.

"Wuwuwu …"

Suddenly, the xanthopanax's horn sounded. It was not one or two horn but a large number of horns blowing. In this boundless land, the horn sounded especially melodious, as if it was going to pierce through everyone's hearts. Even the grass in the wilderness was trembling in the autumn wind.

"Blow the horn."

Huangfu Song gave the order decisively, and all the bugles in the army immediately started to move, raising the spirits of the soldiers. The horn was an order. The officers and soldiers knew that it was time to risk their lives again. They couldn't help but tighten their grip on their swords and spears.
