The Three Kingdoms: If you don't have money to buy an official position, you can only be the em

Chapter 39 Airdrop, the last straw that broke the camel's back

On the other side, the siege was still going on and the fighting was very fierce: under Huangfu Song's drastic and extraordinary promotion, many generals who were originally buried were promoted. The number of troops did not change, but the combat effectiveness increased sharply.

As the saying goes, heroes emerge in troubled times.

It doesn't matter whether you are there or not in this prosperous era. The earth will continue to turn without either of you.

But in troubled times, a weakling leading troops will not be able to defeat others and will be killed. As long as the people in power are a little more normal, they will promote strong people, which will give heroes a place to show their talents.

That is the case at this time.

Obviously the army only had 200,000 soldiers left and was still a little weak, but under the leadership of four peerless warriors and many top-notch generals, the killing was in full swing.

The city gates were broken down several times and they almost rushed in.

Fortunately, the Yellow Turban Army was no pushover. The soldiers trained by Jiang Cheng according to the later "Militia Training Manual" were truly a team of the people. They all knew in their hearts that only if they could withstand this wave could the benefits given by Jiang Cheng be realized.

We understand that if we can withstand this wave, everyone will be a noble from now on and will no longer have to bow down to others.

Because even when facing Jiang Cheng, they only need to salute.

The Shennong Army kneels to heaven and earth, not to people!
With a strong will to fight, the Shennong army was extremely brave, and Dian Wei was the only one guarding the pass. In addition, Zhang Bao's tractor and Zhang Liang's spray gun helped them hold on.

The gate was breached several times, but they killed the enemy and recaptured the city gate.

Fix it.

In the end, the fighting went crazy and they simply didn't bother to repair the city gates. They just guarded the city gates and waited for the enemy to arrive, relying on the narrow road into the city to fight a war of attrition with the enemy.

In close combat, he was fearless and brave, and Lu Bu's several attempts to charge were repelled each time.

The city gate was piled with corpses, blocking the road.

I just couldn't get in.

"Crazy! They are absolutely crazy. Aren't they afraid of death?" Liu Bei watched from afar and lost his composure for the first time.

He could accept the lows and setbacks, but he could not accept the enemy's firm will. The Yellow Turbans, which were clearly originated from religion and should be a castle in the air, had forged the soul of the army, which he could not understand.

Only fools and weak people pray for protection from gods.

Believing in God is a sign of weakness.

Only those who firmly believe that man can conquer nature are strong and can forge true faith.

But unfortunately, the Yellow Turbans and the Shennong Army existed - this was the change that Jiang Cheng made. When the belief in "Huang Tian" changed from an illusory god to a way of cultivating immortals and becoming something that could truly change lives, it was no longer illusory!

The surrendering army was not merely fooled.

They saw with their own eyes that cement could be as hard as stone, saw with their own eyes wounded soldiers being taken back for treatment, and saw with their own eyes Hua Tuo opening someone's skull to remove an arrow and the person still survived.

When miracles come down from the altar, they truly appear.

That is no longer a miracle, but faith, an indestructible belief!
"Go, go, commander, take the lead and charge!" said Huangfu Song.

However, even someone as strong as Lu Bu felt powerless when facing the Shennong Army who would never retreat even a single step.

"Don't these people know how to be afraid?"

As for Yuan Shao, he frowned and said, "Yan Liang, Wen Chou, conserve your strength!"

The battle between the two sides was too fierce.

He was worried that if he wasn't careful, his little fortune would be wiped out.

"Keep fighting. They don't have much food. If we hold on to the end, we will still win!" Huangfu Song said.

The attacking party could at least collect food from nearby areas. At worst, they could scrape tree bark and stew it so they wouldn't starve to death.

But the defenders can't do that.

However, Huangfu Song’s idea was correct, but not long after he said it, from afar, huge "balls" floated towards the city.

It was several hundred meters high, and even Lu Bu’s arrows could not reach it.

"what is that?"

"what happened?"

"What kind of magic is this?"

Everyone is puzzled.

He hurriedly ordered everyone to raise their shields to resist, but the result was that the other side did not attack at all.

Instead, it floated into the city, circling and throwing things. At first, Huangfu Song was still unable to react, but when the enemy soldiers took the golden sesame cakes and ate them with salted fish, while shooting crossbows at the city gate, their faces completely changed.

"Flying and delivering food?"

"Why do the Yellow Turbans always have new tricks?"

"Trouble!"

It's really troublesome.

With the replenishment of food, the Shennong Army became obviously more motivated. Not only did they guard the city gates tightly, they also occasionally charged out with ease.

On the contrary, it was the imperial army.

The lack of military rations is not simply a problem of eating. In ancient times, wars were a test of physical strength. Even elite soldiers wearing armor had to fight until both sides were exhausted before they could kill the enemy.

Otherwise, how could it be so easy to kill him with the armor on?

No one cares about making swords and guns, but the whole family of people who make armor will be executed. This is the reason!

That's a health bar that goes up straight.

However, if you are hungry and have no strength, that’s a different story - the balance of the battlefield begins to tilt, and you’re strong at first, then weak, and finally exhausted.

By the third day, Huangfu Song's army was no longer able to advance.

Even if there was a peerless warrior who could defeat thousands of enemies leading the charge, it would still be useless as the soldiers no longer had the heart to fight.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng knew that his chance had come. He held up a specially made loud speaker and shouted loudly: "If you follow Shennong, you will eat three meals a day. If you follow the imperial court, you will go hungry nine times in three days!"

Hearing this, the entire army began to shout.

He said in a voice that echoed throughout the city: "If you follow the imperial court, you will go hungry nine times out of three days!"

As soon as the voice came out, Huangfu Song's army immediately fell into chaos.

I'm not afraid of hardship, but I'm afraid of comparison.

Three meals a day was a luxury only enjoyed by the nobility in ancient times when most people only ate two meals a day. However, going hungry for nine meals in three days was exactly what the imperial army was experiencing at that time.

At this point, they couldn't take it anymore.

The last straw that broke the camel's back fell!

The army no longer obeyed orders.

Some people simply sat down and stopped fighting.

"I'm so hungry, I might as well die!"

"do not fight!"

"I'm tired, let's die in battle!"

At this point, the situation has completely reversed.

"The entire army will attack, and the charge will be sounded!" said Jiang Cheng.

With the sound, trumpets blew and war drums beat.

All the soldiers in the city rushed out in full force, heading straight for the enemy army, no longer defending the city.

At the same time, after three days of assembly, the guerrillas from Handan, Julu and Xingtai also gathered, and even brought civilians with them to cheer on the edge of the battlefield.

Millions of Yellow Turbans, old, weak, sick and disabled, all came together.

The momentum was overwhelming.

"Left Ling fires right, Lei Gong helps me!"

Zhang Lu took the lead and stabbed fiercely with two electric batons. Wherever he went, people and horses fell to the ground and no one could match him.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, and the age of Jiazi will bring good luck to the world!"

Millions of Yellow Turbans shouted in unison.

The momentum was so huge that Huangfu Song's army was instantly thrown into chaos and could no longer fight.

"Retreat, retreat!" He hurriedly ordered: "I can be defeated and die, but the imperial army cannot be destroyed! Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, charge and break through!"
