Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 31
Gao Tai smiled. In his heart, he must first complete the tasks assigned by the young master, and then enhance his own strength.

He suddenly thought of something, and quickly said: "By the way, just now when the young master was practicing, Huang Shao sent someone over, saying that there is a group of officers and soldiers ahead, and asked the young master to lead people to meet them! Defeat them."

As more than [-] people from the Yellow Turbans continued to go north, they encountered more and more officers and soldiers on the road. Most of these were reinforcements who were ordered to go to Changshe to support Huangfusong.As the saying goes, saving people is like putting out a fire, and the battle of Changshe is related to the overall situation of the world. The Han court will never watch Huangfusong and Zhu Jun be trapped in the city.

In addition to the Sanhe cavalry that continued to be summoned in Luoyang, the counties and counties near Yingchuan received military orders from the Han court, asking them to send more or less reinforcements.

The Yellow Turban Army that Gao Cheng was in had a strength of about [-], and it was not too big or small. Of course, it was no match for officers and soldiers of the same strength.

"Let me personally lead someone to fight?" Gao Cheng frowned slightly. He has been immersed in cultivation these days, and he is quite repulsive to fighting on the battlefield.

There is a worry in his heart that he can't express, that is, as his status in the Yellow Turban Army continues to rise, his reputation will also grow.

The position of captain is nothing, and the influence is relatively small.Once he becomes the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, he is qualified to lead an army alone and appear in the vision of the Han Dynasty.At that time, no matter how he explained, he would be regarded as a rebellious traitor by the Han officials.

The power of the Taiping Dao is far inferior to that of the Han Dynasty. This rebellion will definitely not succeed. The more you dance in the Yellow Turban Army, the faster you will die in the future.

However, Gao Cheng also knew that he could no longer shirk this time. When Huang Shao continued to follow the army to the north, he continued to fight with the official army reinforcements supporting the Changsha. Gao Cheng basically did not make any moves. When fighting in front, he paddled behind.

This kind of behavior made many generals Dubo who were disobedient to him even more dissatisfied in their hearts.If Gao Cheng can't shirk this time, Huang Shao will definitely doubt him.

If Huang Shao, who has reached the seventh level of strength training, is furious, even if Gao Cheng has 3000 people under his command, he cannot afford the opponent's anger and blow.

"At this time, let me fight against the officers and soldiers, do you want me to send a vote?" A thought flashed in Gao Cheng's mind. He came from a family, and most of the Yellow Turban Army used to be ordinary people.Not at all.

Normally, Gao Cheng's identity would only awe the ordinary Yellow Turban soldiers, but on the eve of the war, most of the Yellow Turban soldiers would subconsciously suspect Gao Cheng, thinking that he would secretly inform the officers and soldiers.

"There is no way to get out now. Hey, I can't help myself. I can only lead people to defeat the officers and soldiers according to Huang Shao's military order, so as not to be suspected!"

Gao Cheng thought for a while, and asked Gao Tai and Zhang Chen to gather troops.After a while, more than 2000 Yellow Turban soldiers gathered, nearly 2000 of them were pikemen, and the rest were sword and shield players and archers.

The last time the officers and soldiers attacked the camp at night, they lost all their supplies, so the newly recruited soldiers under Gao Cheng's command held newly cut wooden spears in their hands.

Gao Cheng looked at his subordinates, most of them were not very strong, only the sword and shield fighters and the archers looked good. After he handed over the command and training to Gao Tai and Zhang Chen, the two were meticulous. , Supervise and urge soldiers to train every day.

With enough food and grass to support them, these people are no longer a rabble after training.

"set off!"

After having a rough estimate of the strength of his subordinates, Gao Cheng immediately ordered Gao Tai and Zhang Chen to march forward with soldiers and horses. According to the news from the scouts, a team of officers and soldiers with a size of [-] people was ten miles ahead.

At this time, the Yellow Turban army had arrived in Yingyin County after many days of trekking and marching.Yingyin County was attacked by the Yellow Turban army not long ago, and the city wall that was defended by luck was not lost, but the officers and soldiers inside the city suffered heavy casualties, and they were unable to control the villages, forts and fields outside the city.

Therefore, Gao Cheng didn't have to worry about the sudden appearance of the officers and soldiers from Yingyin County. He could safely follow the army and move forward quickly. It didn't take long for him to see a small hillside in the distance.

There were about a thousand officers and soldiers and a dozen grain trucks on the hillside. When the Yellow Turban scouts spotted them, the officers and soldiers also noticed, and quickly deployed defenses on the hillside and grain trucks.

"Did the scouts find out the origin of this team of officers and soldiers?" Gao Cheng asked.He found that the enemy used grain trucks as a wall and seized the high ground on the hillside. It can be seen that the leader of the officers and soldiers who led the team reacted very quickly and was a good talent.

Not far away, Zhang Chen mobilized his horse, stepped forward and replied, "The scouts reported that this group of troops should be reinforcements sent by Xiangcheng to Changsha, and nothing else can be found out."

Gao Cheng nodded. He saw that there were quite a few archers in the opponent's team, shooting bows and arrows in salvo, and the yellow turban cavalry didn't dare to get too close.

After simple training, more than 2000 yellow scarf soldiers formed a simple formation and slowly approached the hillside.The officers and soldiers behind the grain carts have bent their bows and arrows, ready to meet the enemy at any time.

Gao Tai and Zhang Chen were very cautious. Seeing that the opponent's defense was tight, they sent swords and shields to form a shield wall to cover the pikemen and archers behind them.

Gao Cheng did not rush to the front, but stayed behind to watch the battle on his horse. He held a longbow in his hand, and kept scanning the hillside in front of him, looking for the leader of this team of officers and soldiers.

Accompanied by a shout of killing, the archers on both sides shot feathered arrows, and there was a constant whistling sound in the sky. The sword and shield hand in front had a shield defense, which blocked most of the incoming feathered arrows without causing too much damage. Loss.The defensive officers and soldiers were condescending, and the losses were even slighter.

After the battle began, the leaders of the officers and soldiers needed to come forward to command, and they could no longer hide and showed their figures. .

"Found it!" Gao Cheng's eyes lit up, and he saw a young man wearing a scarf appearing in the crowd on the hillside in the distance. He began to command the archers of the commander's army to adjust the angle, and began the second round of arrow rain.

Swish!Another rain of arrows fell from the sky, this time with the adjustment of the Lunjin youth, the arrows from the officers and archers directly crossed an arc, crossed the sword and shield hand in front, and shot down the pikemen who followed closely behind.

"Ah, my thigh!"

Not many of these pikemen who fell on the ground were shot to death, most of them were defenseless, and were hit by long arrows falling from the sky and suffered severe injuries.Lying on the ground, weeping continuously.

Gao Cheng ignored these people, but focused his attention on the young man opposite. He was holding a longbow and a long sword hanging from his waist. He was dressed like a standard Confucian scholar.

Swish!The young man on the opposite side bent his bow and drew an arrow, and a streak of light whizzed out, passed through the shield wall that was constantly approaching, and precisely penetrated into the very long throat of a sword and shield hand.

Then the young man seemed to have noticed that someone was peeping. He turned his eyes and saw Gao Cheng who was sizing him up from a distance.

"What a precise archery technique! It's a pity that it lacked a little bit of strength. If I guessed correctly, the person opposite should be a scholar between the second and fifth floors of Soul Cultivation!" Gao Cheng's eyes flashed, and his thoughts turned, A lot of information was quickly obtained.
