Call of the Other World: Rebuilding the Glory of Zhenbei

Chapter 34: Only by being tempered in war can one become an elite!
When a hint of paleness appeared in the eastern sky, the thick night finally began to dissipate.

There were many more clouds in the sky, making the sunlight lazy, only sparingly casting a few spots on the earth.

It was learned that Lu Bu was leading the Yellow Turban Wolf Cavalry to Youzhou Road.

Qin Hao was more anxious to break through Tianlang Pass. He didn't want half of the credit for conquering Youzhou Road to be taken by Lu Bu.

Moreover, with his current status and position, if he can break through Tianlang Pass, the entire battle situation in Zhenbei Road will basically be led by him.

Even Lu Bu has to listen to him!

Therefore, Qin Hao was determined to get the first credit for breaking through Tianlang Pass this time.

"storm!"

"Attack the city. We must break through Tianlang Pass today!"

Qin Hao now has 80,000 Yellow Turban troops under his command, all of whom are deployed to the battlefield, and he begins to attack Tianlang Pass with all his might.

A large khaki banner slowly rose from the horizon, and swords and spears were like a forest. Thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers formed an endless khaki wave.

Originally, Qin Hao only had 60,000 Yellow Turban troops left, but his second uncle Qin Liang ordered the killing of all the landlords and local tyrants who dared to resist in the cities and towns along the way while they were marching towards Tianlang Pass. All their property and food were confiscated and used for military purposes.

In just a few days, more than 20,000 people flocked to seek refuge.

In the eyes of the imperial court, the Yellow Turban Army was a bandit group, and the people also called the Yellow Turban Army the Yellow Turban Bandits. So why were so many people willing to be bandits?
It turned out that in the Great Xia Dynasty, landlords and local tyrants occupied a large amount of land, forming manors that were like independent kingdoms.

The common people who depended on these landlords worked hard for a year, but had to pay 70 to 80 percent of their harvest as rent, leaving them with only enough to make ends meet. If a natural disaster struck, they would have to sell their children to survive.

These are fine, at least I can still survive.

However, these landlords and local tyrants were not reconciled to this. They took advantage of the people's hardship to buy low and sell high, lend money and exploit them.

Just like this, the people who depended on the landlords, generation after generation, worked hard all their lives, but lived in poverty and had no place to bury their dead.

Stuck on the brink of death, suffering from hunger, cold, poverty and disease.

In order to protect their own estates and strengthen their control over the dependent people, the landlords built high walls, earthen forts and deep trenches around the estates. At the four corners of the estates stood corner towers as high as twelve or thirteen meters.

The landlords then forced young and middle-aged men to serve as servants, controlled by housekeepers and thugs, and had them patrol and guard the manor.

During the seasons of March when there was a shortage of food and September when the autumn harvest came, the training and vigilance of the servants had to be strengthened to deal with the people who were forced to rebel due to the "spring famine" and "cold weather".

Now that the Yellow Turban rebels have come, how can the people who have suffered humiliation and hardship every day, and have neither enough food nor clothes, not surrender to them like they are possessed?
As the saying goes, thousands of soldiers are endless, and tens of thousands of soldiers are connected to the earth and the sky.

This is the characteristic of the Yellow Turban Army. It may only take one night for a group of three or five people to gather three or five hundred thousand people.

However, it often only takes one night for an army to be completely wiped out from a force of three or five hundred thousand people.

Like the tide.

In fact, strictly speaking, the Yellow Turban Army cannot be called an army. At best, it can only be regarded as a robbery group that huddles together for warmth. When fighting with the government army, they have neither formation nor unified command. When they win, they rush forward to rob things without distinction between men, women, young and old, and even kill each other while scrambling. When they lose, they just leave their parents to marry someone else and scatter like birds and beasts, fighting for their lives.

"The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established. In the year of Jiazi, the world is at peace. We follow the name of the great and wise teacher to fight against the unjust and incompetent ruler, so that all people in the world can have enough food and clothing, and all people in the world can have equal wealth!!!"

"The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky shall be established. In the year of Jiazi, the world is at peace.

"The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky shall be established. In the year of Jiazi, the world is at peace. Behind him is a roar like a tsunami.

The Yellow Turban Army began to advance again!
"Kill!"

"My men, fight with all your might. With the blessing of the great and wise teacher, we will surely win."

As soon as the Yellow Turban Army heard Zhang Jue's name, they became excited and shouted continuously.

The Taiping Dao is a religious organization, and its followers have their own religious beliefs. These Yellow Turban Army soldiers who cannot survive believe that Zhang Jue can lead them to overthrow the violent Xia and let them live a good life again.

The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established! In the year of Jiazi, the world will be blessed with good fortune! "

The slogans hit the wall like a tidal wave.

"Kill!!!"

At this moment, under the leadership of the Taiping Dao envoys in front of the battlefield, the entire army began to shout slogans of uprising.

Shouting this slogan is not just to boost morale.

Countless Yellow Turban soldiers discovered that when he was shouting slogans, he couldn't help but become excited, blood rushing all over his body, and he seemed to have endless energy!
This slogan seems to have a blessing effect on these ordinary soldiers!

Although thousands of Yellow Turban bandits were dressed in rags, with sunken eye sockets and some even had wounds, they were all full of energy and high-spirited, and they all looked ready to die.

The weapons these people held were also varied, including hoes, sledges, hatchets, axes, five-pronged steel forks, steel knives, etc.
"The Blue Sky is dead, and the Yellow Sky should be established!" Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers shouted together.

The eyes of all the Yellow Turban soldiers were filled with heat, as if they were brainwashed cult followers.

The Great Xia Dynasty is full of parasites riding on the heads of us common people. Even if it means death, we must perish together with them. I am a warrior of the Great Sage Master. Even if I die bravely in battle, my fellow villagers will be proud of me.

All the attacking Yellow Turban soldiers had red eyes and thought so in their hearts, as if the defenders of the pass were their enemies.

Even the Yellow Turban warriors Xiao Qimao and Miao Mingyue took this opportunity, holding their magic weapons, and personally led their troops to charge towards the Tianlang Pass in front of them.

As the two led the way, the morale of the Yellow Turban soldiers was greatly boosted. Teams of Yellow Turban soldiers carried simple bamboo ladders and launched a desperate charge.

During the past few days of attack and defense, the Yellow Turban Army's siege equipment has always been very simple, with only ordinary ladders, and they were made very simply. It was precisely because of the Yellow Turban Army's single siege tactics that Tianlang Pass was able to hold out until now.

Otherwise, no matter how strong the defensive capabilities of Guo Linzhi, Guo Ju and others were, and no matter how brave and good at fighting the defenders of Tianlang Pass were, they would not be able to defend Tianlang Pass due to the huge gap in troop strength.

Because the Yellow Turban Army's strength, which was several times that of the Tianlang Pass defenders, was enough to crush them alive.

On the battlefield, arrows were flying. Some Yellow Turban soldiers fell on the way to attack, and some defenders of Tianlang Pass fell off the city walls with screams.

However, the situation soon became one-sided as the defenders of Tianlang Pass had run out of arrows.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army also rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and immediately the militia farmers on the city wall picked up rolling logs and thunder stones and threw them down.

This is a battle that neither side can lose. The defenders of Tianlang Pass need to defend their hometown, and the Yellow Turban Army needs to create a Yellow Sky world that belongs only to their Yellow Turban people.

People died every moment on the battlefield, but no one retreated, and no one dared to retreat.
