In the spring of the second year of Zhongping, in 185 AD, the spring breeze passed by Zhanxian in the northeast of Shangdang.

Although the city is a small county town, the surrounding walls are made of bricks and stone, which is extremely thick.

The main reason is that Zhanxian is an important passage to enter Jingxing Road.

Jingxing Road is known as "the fifth pass of the eight passes in Taihang and the sixth pass of the nine passes in the world". It is a key crossing of Hebei and a must-fight for military strategists throughout the ages.

Zhanxian has naturally become a strategic location because it is guarding the western pass of Jingxing.

On the top of the city, a young man was standing with his head held high, his eyes staring tightly into the distance, as if he had any restlessness.

The young man is Zhao Yun. He is now over 18 years old, eight feet tall, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a wide face and heavy chin.

He has a very tall figure, and although he is heroic, he can't help but show a hint of elegance.

However, Zhao Yun is not the one who is now Zhao Yun. As early as three years ago, he was taught by the martial arts master on the mountain. Later generations were reborn and occupied Zhao Yun's body.

After three years of adaptive learning, Zhao Yun has completely adapted to the original Zhao Yun and has also passed the test of his teacher.

Under the strict assessment of his teacher, Zhao Yun passed his assessment with his martial arts and officially left the army to go down the mountain.

However, when he arrived in Zhanxian County, he was about to set foot on Jingxing and rushed to his hometown Changshan Zhending Time, but he encountered the Yellow Turban Army here.

In fact, it was said that it was the Yellow Turban Army, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion was just the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army who followed Zhang Niujiao, the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, to escape to the Taihang Mountains after the suppression of the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

Today's Yellow Turban Army cannot be called an army at all, but it is just a group of bandits.

After occupying the major hills of Taihang Mountain, the so-called Yellow Turban Army completely became a thief who robbed the family and committed all kinds of evil.

All the local people suffered greatly!

Just like now, the Yellow Turban thieves rely on their large numbers of people and powerful forces, and they are surrounded by troops at the city.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Yunyicheng's journey to go down the mountain and back home was blocked here.

"well!"

For a moment, Zhao Yun couldn't help but sigh, his eyes filled with deep sorrow.

Zhao Yun had been in the late Han Dynasty for three years. Although he had been studying in the mountains, the Yellow Turban Rebellion led by Zhang Jiao swept across the world.

The momentum was so great that even Zhao Yun, who was on the mountain, could not help but hear too many miserable situations.

Standing above the city, facing the heights, the darkness below appeared in the dense heads wrapped in Yellow Turban Army besieging the city in disorganized manner.

Zhao Yun had almost reason to believe that if a well-trained official army came at this time.

It doesn't take too many, as long as there are a hundred people, they can defeat the Yellow Turban Thief in one fell swoop.

Because the morale of the Yellow Turban thieves is too loose and has no combat power at all.

However, the intention of the Yellow Turban gathering at the city now made Zhao Yun confused and did not know his plans.

As early as three days ago, the Yellow Turban thieves who gathered in the mountains and forests gathered with all their powers at the call of Qu Shushang Zhang Niujiao and came to Zhan County together.

Since Zhanxian is the western pass of Jingxing, caravans who travel between Ji and Jin usually rest here.

In fact, Zhanxian has also become a transit place for Hebei and Shanxi, and the existence of merchants has also made the city full of fuel and water.

This is also the reason why Zhang Niujiao focused on Zhan County this time, and wanted to intimidate the county officials in the city with his huge army and ask him to give him the "traffic protection fee".

However, what is unexpected is that the Ming court of Zhanxian (the county magistrate of the Han Dynasty) was also a righteous person and directly rejected Zhang Niujiao's unreasonable request.

Afterwards, hundreds of war soldiers in the city were summoned to defend the city walls at all times and resist the attack of the Yellow Turban thieves.

This warrior is not an ordinary county soldier, with low combat power. This is an old soldier who has been guarding here for many years. He has rich combat experience and extremely powerful combat power.

It was just because of the corruption of the Han Dynasty for years, the relatives and eunuchs in the court fought for power and profit, and had no time to take care of the local area.

However, it has led to the powerful forces in various places taking advantage of the situation and secretly cultivating their strength to develop, but the living space of war soldiers is infinitely suppressed.

Zhao Yun originally stayed in the city, but because of his excellent shooting skills, he agreed to resist the Yellow Turban thieves under the personal recruitment of the Ming court in Zhan County.

Therefore, Zhao Yun personally patrolled the city, guarding against the sudden attack on the thief army.

······

Outside the city, within the simple Yellow Turban camp, the Yellow Turban leaders such as Chu Yan and Yu Du couldn't help but wonder.

"Master Qu, my Yellow Turban Army has many powerful troops, and the official army is only hundreds of soldiers. Why not force the attack on the city?"

"As long as you give me an order, I will lead my brothers to attack the city, take down the city, and plunder wealth."

After the words came, the other leaders of the mountain such as Bai Rao, Lei Gong, Zhang Baiqi and others agreed.

In fact, the leaders of these major mountains just nominally follow Zhang Niujiao's instructions on weekdays.

This time, the leaders came to plunder Zhanxian with Zhang Niujiao, but the city was full of fuel and water.

But now Zhang Niujiao's inaction has made the leaders dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Zhang Niujiao couldn't help but change his face and gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone, be calm."

"You are thinking about a question first. Although I have many Yellow Turbans, I lack excellent military equipment. Even many brothers are carrying wooden sticks as weapons."

"But Zhanxian is an important pass in Jingxing, with strong city walls, easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"How much military strength will our army lose when attacking rashly?"

It has to be said that Zhang Niujiao is worthy of being one of Zhang Jiao's personal disciples, and his knowledge and ability are better than that of these thieves in the mountains.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Niujiao thought about it carefully and said, "So, our coach's plan is to block the city with full authority first and cut off contact with the outside world."

"After a long time, when the city relaxes and the Guizhou leaders are restless, they are attacking. Wouldn't they achieve twice the result with half the effort?"

With Zhang Niujiao's analysis, the leaders also had the strength to retain, and were no longer forced. They reached an agreement tacitly and left!

But after all the leaders left, Zhang Niujiao showed a cold smile.

Obviously, Zhang Niujiao not only had the intention to seize Zhanxian, but also had the intention to integrate Taihang Mountain in one fell swoop.

······

In the city, seeing the days passing by, the Yellow Turban Thief still blocked the surroundings of the city and cut off contact.

Unfortunately, he did not attack, but was just consuming it with the government army.

Of course, as time gradually dissipated, the Ming court had already strengthened its walls and cleared its fields, gathering Guizhou outside the city in the city.

At this time, the people began to become impatient, and they were silent every day in the county and shouted to leave the city.

Since many Guizhou heads live in the city without a fixed place, they can only stay in the streets and alleys.

In a short period of time, the Guizhou leaders have no complaints, but over time, of course, trouble will arise and people will feel dissatisfied.

In recent days, after receiving help from the expedition to guard the city, Zhao Yun has also fulfilled his responsibilities and carefully guarded the city.
