    The north wind howled, the clouds were thick, and a blizzard fell on the Central Plains. It lasted for three days and three nights without stopping. The snow was more than four feet deep on the flat ground, no one had a knee, and it was difficult for cars and horses to move. The temperature dropped sharply, freezing birds to death.  There are countless beasts. Looking around, mountains, rivers, cities, villages and towns are all dyed silver white. In the world of ice and snow, everything is suffocating!

    On Julu City, Zhang Yan was wearing a thick cloak and holding a green-edged sword. She led a group of close guards and walked slowly on the snow. She was inspecting the city defense situation. Her face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.  I sighed four words repeatedly in my heart - "It is difficult to defend an isolated city!"

    I tried my best to hold high the banner of "Heavenly General", swarmed hundreds of thousands of people, captured the city, and killed the officials. I was unstoppable along the way. I was about to enter Yecheng and establish a Yellow Turban Empire. I knew that God's will was unpredictable.  , the 'Niu Formation' was born, and defeated the Yellow Turban Magic Army. After a fierce battle, tens of thousands of men and horses were lost, and the remaining troops were trapped in the isolated city. Morale was low, food and grass were cut off, and their dreams were shattered!

    It is true that humans are not as good as God, but there is one thing that Zhang Yan can't figure out. He has fought with Yuan Jun many times, and he knows the skills of those generals. A powerful weapon like the 'Niu Formation' is definitely not what they can come up with.  There must be an expert behind the scenes to guide you. Who is this person? What an unpredictable method!

    Because it snowed heavily and the roads were difficult to navigate, Yuan Jun did not rush to attack the city. Instead, he dug three trenches outside the city, one foot deep and three feet wide. They inserted wooden thorns in the bottom and built barriers on the top. Soldiers kept patrolling back and forth, completely attacking the city.  Julu City is under siege, and the people inside have no chance of escaping!

    "Surrounded by copper walls and iron walls, we are trapped in such a desperate situation. Even if the Soldier Saint Sun Wu is resurrected, I am afraid it will be difficult to break out. The gods will not bless us, and the Yellow Turban will be destroyed by heaven!"

    After checking for a while, Zhang Yan shook his head in disappointment. In order to find a way to survive, he sent people to break out several times. As a result, he suffered heavy casualties and none of them succeeded. Yuan Jun's defense line was like a copper wall and it was insurmountable for men and horses!

    "General, the soldiers of the two battalions on the left and right started fighting again in order to compete for food and grass. The commanders were unable to suppress it, and many people have been killed and injured General, please hurry up Plop!"

    A yellow scarf soldier ran up to the city, covered in blood. Before he finished reporting, he fell to the ground and passed out completely!

    "Come here, take him down for treatment, and give him a few mouthfuls of rice soup. He must be rescued!"

    Zhang Yan stepped forward to check and found that the soldier was unconscious. It was not because he was seriously injured, but because he had no food in his belly and was starving. This is also the biggest difficulty faced by the Yellow Turban Army - food and grass are cut off, and people's hearts are floating!

    The Yellow Turban Army has no stable base and no logistical support. Wherever it goes and where it eats, hundreds of thousands of troops are like locusts. After capturing a city, they will eat everything in about half a month. They can only fight on the move and continue.  Looting food and grass, once it stops, it will fend for itself!

    The army has been trapped in Julu City for more than a month. The food and grass in the city have long been exhausted. They can only kill horses for food and barely survive. However, there are more wolves and less meat, so it is difficult to distribute them evenly. In order to compete for food, the men and horses of each battalion fight fiercely, and they are already bloody.  We have fought several times. If this continues, I am afraid it will cause a large-scale mutiny!

    The situation is urgent and must be dealt with immediately, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with. Zhang Yan rode a green-maned horse and led a group of close guards to the camp where the trouble was taking place

    "Kill!¡ª¡ªWe will either starve to death or hack to death. Let's fight them!"

    "Come on! - Die early, be reincarnated early, kill with a knife, it's faster than starving to death"

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In Julu City, a fierce fighting is going on. Both sides are men with yellow scarves on their heads. They are brandishing swords and guns and fighting desperately. They are more fierce than fighting against the officers and soldiers. Xiri's comrades have now become the masters of life and death.  The reason is very simple - food!

    Hundreds of thousands of people gathered together, consuming a lot of food every day. The food in the city had been eaten up, and there were not many horses left. Forced by hunger, humanity was lost and animality was rampant. In order to snatch a morsel of food, the soldiers did not hesitate to pull out their horses.  They fight each other with knives, fight to the death, and even devour each other, wrapping their bellies with human flesh!

    Dealing with the rebels, good words and persuasion are useless. It will only increase their arrogance. Ordering to disarm is useless. Instead, it will coerce more people. The only way is to cut through the mess with a sharp knife - kill!

    "Anyone who disobeys military orders shall be punished with death. Archers are ready to shoot all troublemakers - let them go!"

    Zhang Yan mobilized a large number of archers. With an order, thousands of arrows were fired. The rebels fell down in droves. Dead bodies piled up and blood flowed into rivers. The sound of wailing could be heard endlessly. Then the soldiers held white blades and began to clean up the battlefield.  Anyone who is not out of breath, one after another, one after another.?No stay!

    "General, spare your life!¡ª¡ªYou little ones will never dare to do it again!"

    "General, forgive me!¡ª¡ªYou guys just want a bite to eat!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    People's hearts are as strong as iron and military laws are as strong as furnaces. Faced with ruthless killings, the soldiers threw away their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy. They fought with swords in order to find a way to live, not to die. Besides, there were so many corpses on the ground.  , it¡¯s enough for everyone to have a full meal, there¡¯s no need to make any more trouble!

    "The previous battle was just a small setback. With Huang Tian's blessing, our army will be able to turn defeat into victory and find a way to survive There is a shortage of food in the city, and I am willing to kill the mounts and let the brothers have a sip of broth!"

    To stabilize the morale of the army, killing alone is not enough. Zhang Yan stepped forward and comforted everyone, then pulled out his sword and stabbed the chest of his mount with his backhand

    "Brush!¡ª¡ªßÔ!ßÔ!"

    The sword was pulled out, blood rushed out, and the green-maned horse screamed and fell to the ground. The soldiers immediately pounced on it, slashed their swords, and cut off the horse's flesh. Then they set up an iron pot and cooked broth for the hungry soldiers!

    "We will not surrender to the death, and we are willing to fight with the general to the end!"

    "We will not surrender to the death, and we are willing to fight with the general to the end!"

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The general who commanded hundreds of thousands of horses was willing to kill his own horse and make broth for the ordinary soldiers. Although each person could not drink a mouthful on average, it was a rare wish. The soldiers fell to their knees one after another, cursing and swearing that they were willing to follow.  General, fight to the bitter end with the officers and soldiers and never surrender!

    Relying on his iron fist and winning people's hearts, Zhang Yan temporarily quelled the mutiny. However, he knew very well that this method would treat the symptoms but not the root cause. If he could not break out of the siege, the hungry soldiers would mutiny again in a few days. Who would be able to do it at that time?  There is no way to save it!

    ¡°I¡¯m sending an order to the leaders of all ministries to come to the city lord¡¯s palace to discuss matters regarding the army¡¯s breakout. If we can¡¯t get food, these hungry soldiers will rebel!¡±

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Julu City - City Lord's Mansion - Lobby!

    After getting the news, the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army came to discuss matters one after another, and the lobby was quickly filled with hundreds of people in total. These people were dressed in messy clothes, had vulgar etiquette, and were a standard mob!

    The origins of the Yellow Turban Army are very mixed. They include Taiping Taoists, bandits who dominate the mountains, and careerists who fish in troubled waters They defected to Zhang Yan, hoping to use the banner of the 'Yellow Turban Army' to achieve success.  When their own goals were going smoothly, everything was fine. But when the war suffered setbacks, they immediately became separated and each made their own plans!

    "Everyone, we have run out of food and grass, and the isolated city is hard to defend. If we don't break out, we will die without a burial place. If you have any good ideas, please tell me quickly. As long as you can break out of a way to survive, I, the general, will be generously rewarded!"

    Zhang Yan was responsible for presiding over the meeting, and looked at everyone with eyes full of contempt. He looked down on these rabble at all, but he had no choice but to be conciliatory!

    "After a fierce battle, our army suffered heavy losses. It is impossible to go south to Yecheng. It is better to break out to Qingzhou eastward. The city there is rich and the population is large. It is a good place for us to show our talents!"

    An old man stood up from the front row. He was in his fifties, wearing a seven-star Taoist robe, holding a floating dust in his hand, and looking like a fairy. He was the second leader of the Yellow Turban Army - Taoist Da Le!

    Taoist Da Le was a veteran of the Yellow Turban Army. He rebelled with Zhang Jiao. Later, when the uprising failed, he hid in the Qingzhou area, teaching disciples, recruiting believers, and waiting for opportunities. Later, when the Yellow Turban uprising broke out in Montenegro, he came with a group of disciples to join the rebellion.  Alliance, relying on their seniority, strength, and trick of pretending to be a ghost, took the position of second leader!

    However, Taoist Da Le is very ambitious and has always wanted to become the "Tiangong General". However, he is afraid of Zhang Yan's bravery and has never dared to take action. This time he proposes to march eastward to Qingzhou because he wants to return to his own territory and usurp power again.  Lift!

    "What Immortal Master Da Le said is reasonable, but Qingzhou is a good place to go. Why not ask the Immortal Chief to dispatch troops and generals? We are willing to obey your orders!"

    "Qingzhou is far away and the roads are difficult to travel. We might as well return to Zhongshan County and continue to be kings of the mountain. Wouldn't it be nice to be free and at ease?"

    "What is the future of being a bandit? In my opinion, it is better to break out to the west, join up with the Chishui Yellow Turbans, and then fight to the death with the army!"

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    As soon as Taoist Da Le¡¯s proposal came out, many leaders reacted strongly. Some supported it, while others opposed it. It was noisy and chaotic!

    Zhang Yan sat on the main seat, lowered her head and said nothing. No matter where to break through, Yuan Jun's iron wall must be broken, otherwise there is no need to talk about it. Who has such ability?  I can¡¯t do it myself, let alone everyone sitting here!

    "General, there is an old friend visiting outside the door!"

    While he was deep in thought, a soldier ran in, whispered a few words into his ear, and then handed over a note with eight words on it - 'Boss is here, little brother, don't worry!  ¡¯

    "Why did the boss come to Julu CityHere comes someone. The middle door is wide open, and music is playing in the two corridors to welcome the distinguished guests!"

    After reading the note, Zhang Yan had a look of surprise on her face. She quickly stood up, adjusted her armor, and walked out with a large group of guards - "The God of Death has come, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse!"
