Under the sturdy iron helmets and on their tanned faces, thousands of pairs of Guanxi men's eyes, like Dong Zhuo's, flashed with a terrifying blood-red halo.
Dong Zhuo himself was the commander of the Longxi Army, and the military officers under his command were all famous and well-known.
A song by military officer Li Jue.
Guo Si was the commander of the Erqu Army.
Zhang Ji, the general of Sanqu Army.
Fan Chou, the general of Siqu Army.
Hu Zhen, the commander of the Wuqu Army.
Hua Xiong, the general of Liuqu Army.
Duan Wei, the general of Qiqu Army.
Dong Yue, the general of Baqu Army.
There were eight military officers in a battalion, 4,000 men in total, which was a serious overstaffing. Even the most stressful frontier troops of the Han Dynasty had a battalion of at most 3,000 men, and most battalions had around 1,000 or 2,000 men. Each of the five battalions of the Northern Army had only 1,000 men, with no extra vacancies at all.
From this we can see that the Han emperor even lost control over the colonels.
Next is the Qiang Cavalry Battalion. All the soldiers in this battalion are Qiang people, a very peculiar race, half human and half sheep. Their skin is mostly light blue, dark purple, or traditional skin color, their hair color is also colorful, and they have all kinds of sheep-like horns growing on their heads.
The buttocks of Qiang women are fuller, firmer and more elastic than those of women of any other race. When they walk, their waists sway slightly, and their plump buttocks tremble in the air, creating erotic ripples. If you have never had sex with a Qiang woman from behind, you have lived your life in vain. The horns on their heads provide an excellent grip and direction for this posture.
That plump and beautiful buttocks that makes people linger even has a small sheep's tail. Holding it has a unique charm.
A pair of smooth and round thighs, still in human shape, but at the knees, there are goat's recurved hooves. The calves are covered with a layer of soft fur of the same color as the hair, and the feet are also hard even-toed hooves.
The special leg structure makes the Qiang people look extremely tall and sexy as if they were wearing high heels. The two already perky buttocks also draw perfect arcs in the air that make people's mouths dry.
For some reason, these Qiang people in the west, like the Han people in Guanxi, generally have red, murderous flashes in their eyes.
However, during this period, many Qiang people living in the Qinghai Plateau inexplicably had some mysterious and gorgeous patterns on their bodies, such as the holy marks of thorns on the back and the peach-shaped bats on the lower abdomen. These patterns emit a faint golden light, as if they were cast by holy light, and the Qiang people with these light-cast holy marks have their eyes turn from blood red to a gorgeous golden color.
The two thousand Qiang people in the Qiang Cavalry Camp all rode large horses from Liangzhou. It was a pure cavalry camp. The leader of the camp, the Qiang Cavalry Captain, was the leader of a large Qiang tribe. He married Dong Zhuo's eldest daughter Dong Yu, and the two sides thus reached an unbreakable alliance.
The last camp has the smallest number of people, only one thousand, all of whom are greenskins from the Southern Xiongnu. These greenskins have been sinicized since the time of Emperor Wu of Han for more than three hundred years. They have even forgotten how to speak Xiongnu language and can only speak Chinese. They do not worship Mao, but worship Confucius and Mencius. As a result, the greenskins on the grassland contemptuously call the Southern Xiongnu "Blood Axe", which is the origin of the name of their camp.
The officers of the Xiongnu camp were all Han people, forming a standard foreign frontier military framework. The Xiongnu captain who led the camp was naturally a blood relative of Dong Zhuo, a member of a wealthy and powerful family in Liangzhou, and the husband of the second daughter Dong Zhao: Niu Fu.
As for Dong Zhuo's third and youngest daughter, Dong Yuan, she married Li Ru from the Guanzhong Li family, one of the great families in Guanzhong, and is currently serving as the military advisor of the Xiliang Army.
Dong Zhuo understood the rules of the game in troubled times very well. Only the bond of blood is thicker than water that can unite everyone into a whole. He married his eldest daughter to the leader of the Qiang people, his second daughter to a noble family in Liangzhou, and his third daughter to a powerful family in Guanzhong, thus building a huge and solid network of interests.
In this way, this army of 7,000 soldiers led by members of the Dong family marched up the Fen River, entered Taiyuan, went through Jingxing, and headed straight for the battlefield in Jizhou, wanting to reap the final fruits of victory in the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Chapter 91: The Pregnant Dragon Mother
When the troops in Guangzong were informed of Dong Zhuo's marching route, the Hebei noble families, led by Ju Shou, Tian Feng and Shen Pei, withdrew with their troops without hesitation, leaving a huge gap in the encirclement of Guangzong carefully arranged by Lu Zhi.
The Five Battalions of the Northern Army and the Henan soldiers were also helpless. Now that the commander-in-chief was away, no one had enough reputation or qualifications to mobilize the entire army. With the departure of the Hebei family, the encirclement had been broken. Moreover, only half of their own military rations were supplied from Luoyang, and the other half was transferred from Hebei. Now the family threw up their hands, indicating that the battle line was too long and there were not enough civilians to transport the grain. You should also withdraw to Yecheng for rest!
The five battalions of the Northern Army cursed and swore, but the Han emperor was indeed short of money and food, and there was really no way to transport enough food and grass from Luoyang to Guangzong. The army had to withdraw and return to the center of Jizhou: Yecheng. This army that was enough to crush Zhang Jue retreated just like that.
As for the reason why the Hebei family withdrew, it was also very simple: We, the Guandong family, paid money and provided food, and worked hard to build a good situation. Why should we let a Guanxi person, or the lowest Liangzhou person, reap the peaches? If you have the ability, don't rely on us, and defeat Zhang Jue yourself and trap him in an isolated city.
"Fuck it, it's useless to support the Han Dynasty with this bunch of insects. Even if the country is destroyed, there will still be factional strife."
Liu Zhuang was speechless and helpless. The outrageous actions of these aristocratic families further strengthened his belief in going it alone.
On the other hand, the Yellow Turban Army, which was about to be strangled, also had a chance to catch its breath. Zhang Jue seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and introduced a new theory for his Huangtian religion.
You see, the current emperor is indeed incompetent and ruthless. He even took a good man like Lord Lu Zhi back to Luoyang in a prisoner cart! The last hope of heaven was extinguished by the emperor's own hands! The victory of the Han Dynasty before was just a flash in the pan of Zhang Han of the Qin Dynasty.
Now that Lu Zhi has left, it will be like Zhang Han surrendering to Chu. No one in the entire empire will be my opponent anymore! Cang Tian is dead! Huang Tian should be established!
All of a sudden, more Huang Tian believers who had been dormant in Jizhou emerged like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Zhang Jue's mass base in Jizhou was terrifyingly high. After a quick tour of Jizhou, the lost troops were immediately replenished, but the quality of the troops was still as low as before.
At this moment, a Han army scout, whether intentionally or accidentally, directly threw Dong Zhuo's marching route to Zhang Jue.
Zhang Jue also understood at this moment. So that's what was going on. The people from Guandong and Guanxi were fighting among the factions. These Jizhou families wanted to borrow my knife to kill Dong Zhuo who came from Guanxi.
It doesn't matter. Without the order from Dong Zhuo, the General of the Eastern Army, the terrifying Northern Army's five battalions will not act at all. Then we will go to Jingxingkou to kill Dong Zhuo first! First, we must concentrate all our strength to kill a senior official of the imperial court and strengthen the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army!
On June 30th of the seventh year of Guanghe, the three Zhang Jue sisters, who had caught their breath, led their troops to Jingxingkou to stop Dong Zhuo. However, it would take time for them to recover the troops that were crippled by Lu Zhi. The marching speed of Dong Zhuo's elite troops in Guanxi also exceeded the sisters' expectations. The three of them failed to stop Dong Zhuo at Jingxingkou, and could only settle for the next best thing and fight Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army at Xiaquyang.
-------------------------------------
"Are those Guandong noble families pigs? The Yellow Turban Army was beaten half to death by Lu Zhi a month ago. How come within a month, these rebels have revived again???"
Li Jue and Guo Si, two brave generals, looked at the Yellow Turban army that covered the sky near Xiaquyang and couldn't help but curse. "Oh my God, the scale of this army must be at least 100,000. It was said that Zhang Jue would be beaten to death, and we only need to do the leading and tail work?"
"The Kanto people did it on purpose."
Amidst the thousands of soldiers, a sinister man dressed as a Confucian scholar snorted coldly while riding on horseback.
"These people from Guandong have looked down on us for a long time. With Lu Zhi, a Confucian model, as their leader, they were naturally willing to help. But now that we, the Guanxi people, are the leader, they want to trip us up and set rules. They don't want us to reap the fruits of victory that Lu Zhi has fought for so long with them."
"What suggestions do you have, military advisor? Although these people are poorly equipped, they are there in number after all."
Dong Zhuo was a little frightened at this moment looking at the overwhelming Yellow Turban Army. She was three meters tall, and with the two layers of iron armor, no horse could carry her. Therefore, Dong Zhuo rode a Dayuan demon dragon - outside the Central Plains, people had different definitions of dragons. For example, Dayuan and Yuezhi in the west, and Parthia and Rome further west, they also called this kind of winged creature a dragon.
The Han people would add a word "妖" or "魔" in front of this kind of dragon to make it easier to distinguish, such as Gongsun Zan's frost demon dragon and Dong Zhuo's Dayuan demon dragon.
Since ancient times, the Snakebite Orcs of Dayuan have been famous throughout the world for their ability to breed various mounts. The Dragon Blood Army of the Han Emperor and the Evil Moon Orcs of Maodun Chanyu are both in urgent need of their mounts, and the Bloody Nightmares of the Northern Army's Five Battalions are the best among them.
But that was not the limit of Dayuan's biotechnology. Around the time of Emperor Wu of Han, the snake-biting orcs of Dayuan captured an adult female red-scaled dragon with four claws and wings, blood-red scales, and looked extremely beautiful. So the orc mad doctor developed a series of aphrodisiac and labor-aiding drugs, allowing this female red dragon to give birth to cubs for them continuously and provide them with giant dragon mounts.
The growth cycle of this red dragon is not long. From conception to ovulation to the complete hatching of the dragon egg, it only takes two and a half years. One or two eggs can be laid every year.
It only takes six years for a red dragon cub to grow to the same size as a horse and can undergo initial riding training. When the dragon enters its teenage stage at the age of sixteen, it can be sent out into battle. It only takes twenty years to train a little dragon from birth to entering the battlefield.
Therefore, twenty years after the Snakebite Orcs captured this female red dragon, the number of Dayuan dragon cavalry began to increase dramatically. Emperor Wu of Han was so jealous that he sent General Li Guangli to attack Dayuan. After several years of bloody battles, he abducted this female demon dragon that gave birth to cubs continuously, as well as the related orc mad doctor, to Chang'an. From then on, she gave birth to cubs for the Han Empire. The mother dragon is still imprisoned in Chang'an. In the past three hundred years, she has given birth to three-digit offspring alone.
This group of red Dayuan dragons were the most powerful mounts in the entire empire and a symbol of honor for generals and captains. All military commanders were proud to ride a Dayuan dragon. Dong Zhuo had also fought hard in the previous war against the Qiang and was awarded a ninety-year-old young dragon as the supreme honor.
"The enemy outnumbers us, so let's retreat first. Even if we win this battle, we will suffer heavy losses. It's only a matter of time before the world falls into chaos. There's no need for us to lose our money here.
At the same time, the Eastern Army General should write a letter and immediately order the five battalions of the Northern Army in the south, as well as the Jizhou noble families, to come to the aid. If they don’t come, it will be considered disobedience on the battlefield and they will be executed immediately.”
One of the representatives of the Guanzhong family: Li Ru admonished his mother-in-law, his boss.
"Alright, the rear team will become the front team, retreat! I will personally lead the troops to cover the rear!"
Dong Zhuo thought for a while and felt that what Li Ru said made sense. It was not that the battle could not be won, but there was no need to let the soldiers sacrifice here in vain.
Just like that, the Xiliang army, which had just rushed out of Jingxing a few days ago, retreated towards Jingxing again accompanied by the sound of the gong.
Zhang Jue was a little anxious at this moment. Her prestige had been reduced a lot after being defeated by Lu Zhi before. Didn't you say that Cang Tian was dead and Huang Tian should be in power? Why was Cang Tian pinning her to the ground and beating her?
Although Lu Zhi was personally pushed into a prison cart by the emperor and escorted to Luoyang, and she invented a theory to prove her legitimacy, the prestige she had lost before was still very fatal.
Therefore, Zhang Jue was eager to prove the legitimacy of Huang Tiandang and restore his lost prestige by defeating Dong Zhuo and defeating Lu Zhi, a Han Dynasty General whose rank was equal to that of Lu Zhi.
War drums were beating and horns were blasting. Zhang Jue personally led a hundred Thunder Warriors and a thousand cavalrymen who were barely gathered to launch a charge, trying to stick to Dong Zhuo and let the following 100,000 civilians rush forward, surround him, and eat him!
Chapter 92: Overlord's Legacy
Seeing the enemy coming in full force, Dong Zhuo did not dare to be negligent and personally led the cavalry to intercept them. The Southern Xiongnu cavalry rode on war horses, war pigs, and the backs of squigs and rushed forward on both wings, shooting a rain of arrows at both sides of the Yellow Turban cavalry, killing and wounding them. At the same time, they formed an encirclement, surrounding the two wings of the Yellow Turban cavalry. The Qiang people and Guanxi cavalry roared, holding long spears and halberds, and launched a terrifying charge from the front that shook the world!
The war horses neighed and the cavalry flew forward. For a moment, the Guanxi Army was like a terrifying iron hammer, smashing hard on the Yellow Turban Cavalry. These rebellious peasants from the interior were no match for the murderous border troops. They were defeated in one charge. The war horses neighed and fell to the ground, the soldiers screamed as they were pierced by long spears, and the cavalry teams were directly smashed by the Guanxi cavalry in the chaos!
Dong Zhuo, with his 2,000 cavalry, immediately suppressed the 1,000 cavalry led by Zhang Jue. However, he only suppressed them, not defeated them.
Although the Southern Xiongnu orcs were good at riding and shooting, they were no match for the Changshui Hu cavalry of the Northern Army.
Although the Guanxi and Qiang cavalry were extremely brave, they were not as good as the armored cavalry of the Tunqi.
These elite Yellow Turbans who survived the iron hooves of the five battalions of the Northern Army fell into a disadvantage during the charge, but when the cavalry on both sides lost the charge bonus and engaged in hand-to-hand combat, they were still able to hold on for a while. It was impossible to determine the outcome in a short time. After all, neither side had stirrups, and once the attack stopped, the combat casualties on horseback were very limited. This group of elite Yellow Turbans actually blocked Dong Zhuo's cavalry charge in a desperate battle.
Zhang Jue, together with a hundred Thunder Warriors, acted like a sharp knife to break the formation and charged directly towards Dong Zhuo himself.
She once again put on the three-eyed divine mask, controlling the storm and thunder with both hands. With a wave of her right hand, a golden thunderbolt exploded in the chest of a Qiang soldier. The thunderbolt, as thick as a bucket, quickly jumped to the body of the second victim, accompanied by a deafening thunder roar, burning his flesh and blood to carbonization, and then jumped to the third, fourth... the seventeenth target, leaving seventeen connected jumping arcs on the battlefield.
The seventeen Guanxi Iron Horsemen who were pierced by the lightning chain all screamed and fell off their horses, their skin torn and their hearts twitching due to the electric shock.
The one hundred thunder warriors under her command are the elite among the elite. Before drinking the talisman water, they were sergeants, platoon leaders, or guards in the army. After drinking the talisman water, their fighting power became amazing.
After getting caught in the melee, the Thunder Warriors simply jumped off their horses and killed people with the foot combat they were more familiar with and proficient at. With their height advantage, they were as tall as the Guanxi people on horseback when walking, and with the bonus of nineteen bowls of talisman water, they took the slashing and stabbing of the Guanxi cavalry's horse lances, then swung the spears in their hands to cut off the horses' heads and legs. After the Guanxi soldiers fell off their saddles, they rushed forward waving their spears, stabbing the Guanxi people like hedgehogs, killing them in the melee and causing rivers of blood.
"Breath!"
Dong Zhuo was frightened when he saw the bravery of the hundred Thunder Warriors. He immediately rode on the red-scaled dragon and soared into the sky. The dragon took a deep breath and spewed out a dragon fire storm. The red dragon flames flying all over the sky were like a burning sea that covered the sky and the sun. It roared down from the sky and drowned Zhang Jue and half of the Thunder Warriors in a sea of death.
Dong Zhuo himself rode on the back of a dragon and took out a four-stone bow, shooting arrows at the Yellow Turban army at a terrifying frequency of one arrow per second. He shot fast and fiercely, and the powerful conical armor-piercing arrows could even penetrate ordinary black armor and damage flesh and blood.
Zhang Jue had just started to practice the Fire Avoidance Technique to resist the fire of the dragon's breath when two feather arrows shot through his left shoulder. After the arrows shot through Zhang Jue's left shoulder, they exploded into a yellow-green poisonous cloud of death! Zhang Jue and the Thunder Warriors who inhaled the poisonous cloud felt as if a ball of poisonous fire was burning in their noses and throats. The strong acidic poisonous cloud quickly corroded everyone's respiratory system. With every breath, the throat and lungs would feel a heart-wrenching pain.
They can still resist, but some ordinary people and horses who are caught in the poisonous cloud will bleed from all seven orifices and fall to the ground and die just by inhaling the yellow-green poisonous cloud.
The magic archer's magic arrows.
Generally speaking, archery takes time, and casting spells also takes time.
But magic archers are different. They can combine spellcasting and archery into one action, using one arrow to deal both the physical damage of the arrow and the magical destruction of the spell.
Dong Zhuo just infused his arrows with a five-ring spell, the Death Cloud Spell, which weakened the physical fitness of everyone within the range of the poisonous cloud, and even directly killed the enemy.
"Support the Han Dynasty! Kill the traitors!!!"
Dong Zhuo roared and fired arrows left and right, pouring down a rain of arrows on the Yellow Turban Army with a shooting speed and accuracy that was not inferior to Lu Bu. Among every three arrows, there would be one feather arrow infused with the Death Cloud Technique, so that the remaining Yellow Turban cavalry were gradually shrouded in a yellow-green cloud of death. Those with strong physiques only had their breathing weakened, and thus their physical strength, while those with poor physiques died directly in the death cloud. The cavalry and horses were killed in rows by Dong Zhuo.
Zhang Jue frowned, wondering what kind of monster he was fighting against. Lu Zhi was terribly strong, and Dong Zhuo didn't seem to be weaker than him. If he didn't stop her, the cavalry he had worked so hard to build would probably be lost here.
There was no other choice, Zhang Jue had to flap his magical wings, fly into the sky, and fight against Dong Zhuo and the red-scaled dragon.
Dong Zhuo immediately ordered the red-scaled dragon under his crotch to fight Zhang Jue. With an earth-shaking roar, the red-scaled dragon roared and launched repeated charges in the sky, detoured, pounced, and rend, using its claws, wings, and fangs, trying to tear Zhang Jue into pieces, but Zhang Jiao nimbly dodged them one by one, and even flew onto the dragon's back, waving the scepter of heaven and hitting the beautiful woman on the dragon's back hard!
"clang!!!"
Dong Zhuo was not in a hurry. He pulled out a sword of extremely ancient style and shape from his waist and blocked Zhang Jiao's scepter wrapped with thunder and lightning. There was a clang of metal, sparks flew, thunder and lightning intertwined, and a storm surged. At the moment when the two magical weapons fought, even the sky dimmed for a moment.
When Dong Zhuo pulled out the knife, her whole aura changed. She was no longer the kind-looking and graceful young woman, but a murderous tyrant. The turbulent blood mist in the sky instantly condensed into a vague and terrifying shadow behind Dong Zhuo. When the illusory figure opened his eyes, there were four blazing golden flying stars in his eyes.
When Dong Zhuo wielded his sword and launched an attack, the sound of the blade tearing through the air was like a dragon's roar, and it was even able to cut deep cracks on the Scepter of Heaven, almost cutting the divine weapon in half, which made Zhang Jue heartbroken.
Her attack routine was also very strange and violent, as if the person wielding the knife was not Dong Zhuo, but the giant phantom shrouded in clouds and mist behind her, the King of Western Chu with double pupils! After fighting for several rounds, Zhang Jue felt that he was fighting a life-and-death duel with a terrifying ghost afterimage across four hundred years, and he couldn't help but sweat.
The author says:
Author's words: Dong Zhuo really dug out Xiang Yu's sword when he was a teenager.
Chapter 93: Cleverly Transforming Zhang He
The armies of both sides fought hard and bloody. Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang led the Thunder Warriors who were extremely good at running, and a large number of light infantry to chase the retreating Xiliang Army. Dong Zhuo's cavalry could naturally escape, but the infantry couldn't, and the baggage couldn't even escape. Dong Zhuo was surprised to find that unless he abandoned all the baggage and infantry, he would have no way to retreat from this group of Yellow Turban Army.
These damn Thunder Warriors and light infantry are sticking to me like a dog-skin plaster.
Once they were stuck and delayed for a while by these light infantrymen who ran as fast as the wind, the huge Yellow Turban army would come rushing in from afar. The mighty Yellow Turban Army was like a yellow ant carpet covering the entire earth, or like a yellow wave covering the sky and the sun. It was obvious that they could not retreat, so while Dong Zhuo was fighting fiercely with Zhang Jue, he immediately ordered the entire army to hold their ground!
The seven thousand Xiliang troops formed a big circle in the center, and the one hundred thousand Yellow Turban troops formed a big circle outside, surrounding Dong Zhuo tightly. Then they launched wave after wave of fanatical charges like a tsunami. Each wave of charges was led by five Thunder Warriors.
In the east of the circle, Li Jue and Guo Si raised their spears and jumped on their horses, leading the cavalry in a counter-charge. After crushing the Yellow Turbans' charge, they used their speed advantage to quickly return to the camp and rebuild their defenses.
In the south of the circle, Hua Xiong roared and swung a giant mountain-splitting axe, chopping two Thunder Warriors in a row. With one blow of the axe, both the man and the horse were shattered. The terrifying power scared a group of Yellow Turbans to collapse.
In the west of the circle, Zhang Ji led his troops and stood still, resisting the charge of the Yellow Turbans. His own fighting ability was not dazzling, but his niece Zhang Xiu wielded a silver spear and killed many people in the Yellow Turban Army. She challenged five Thunder Warriors in a row, killing one and injuring four of them. Her momentum was unstoppable. Her spear skills were exactly the same as Zhao Yun's, and she was even more skilled and experienced than the sixteen-year-old Zhao Yun. She also had a pair of furry bear ears on her head.
The north of the circle was the main fighting area between Dong Zhuo and Zhang Jue. The two legion leaders were evenly matched. Countless Thunder Warriors and Longxi Iron Cavalry wanted to provide assistance, but countless Taoists appeared on the Yellow Turban Army's side, blasting the Longxi Iron Cavalry into pieces with thunder and lightning.
Dong Zhuo also had the support of Confucian scholars from Guanxi led by Li Ru. Li Ru raised his index finger and blasted out a gorgeous dead green lightning, which exploded in the chest of a Thunder Warrior. The Thunder Warrior's flesh was not damaged at all, but his soul was directly annihilated and torn apart by this deadly finger. His legs went soft and he fell to the ground.
Li Ru snorted coldly, and after the seventh ring of the death finger, he instantly cast a third ring of corpse explosion, causing the soulless corpse to explode! The blast wave carried bones, flesh, and armor fragments, and exploded towards all the nearby Yellow Turban Army like a projectile from a broadsword mine! They were beaten to pieces, with blood and flesh flying everywhere!
The soldiers and elite troops of both sides fought fiercely, but the quality of the Xiliang Army was there. The Yellow Turban Army often had to sacrifice twelve peasant soldiers to kill one Xiliang soldier. Once the casualties reached a high level, this part of the Yellow Turban Army was no longer able to continue the attack.
What's even more terrifying is that these Guanxi people showed no fear when facing enemies that outnumbered them by dozens of times. They even became braver and braver as the battle went on, and more and more crazy as they killed more and more. Their bloodstained faces became increasingly excited amid the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and their hoarse throats let out terrifying roars!
Moreover, their belts and shoulders were hung with iron hooks used to hang meat in butcher shops. From time to time, they would stab the Yellow Turban Army to the ground with a spear, then draw their swords to chop off their heads and hang them directly on the hooks on their shoulders and belts, treating them as medals of victory or alternative breastplates, and let the blood soak their clothes.
Towards the end of the battle, every Guanxi, Qiang, and Southern Xiongnu person had two or three human heads hanging on their bodies, and the bloodshot in their eyes became increasingly terrifying. The Yellow Turban Army was already frightened when they rushed forward, and their hands were shaking as they looked at the Guanxi soldiers whose bodies were stained with blood and covered with human heads - damn, is this still the Han Army?
This resulted in Zhang Jue being unable to break through Dong Zhuo's defenses even though he had ten times the number of troops. The two sides fought fiercely from morning until sunset, and the soldiers on both sides were completely in the dark and could not see anything, so they gave up.
