The battle on the Weihe Plain lasted from early morning to sunset, and the cries of killing shook the heavens and the earth, and the two sides were indistinguishable.

Zhou Yafu continued to attack the Yellow Turbans on the opposite side. Hua Mulan and Xue Wanche led the cavalry to charge from time to time, beheading at least hundreds of heads each time they attacked, but they were still unable to break the enemy line.

Chutian encountered unprecedented hardships.

On the front of Dorgon, there are 100,000 Yellow Turban elites. These 100,000 Yellow Turbans gained experience by defeating Kong Rong and the Han troops from all over Beihai. The average level is 50, and they are not ordinary farmers.

In addition to the 100,000 Yellow Turban elite confronting each other, there are at least 200,000 weak Yellow Turban refugees in the Weihe area attacking the flanks and rear of the Qingxu coalition from time to time, forcing Chutian to split up to fight.

"My lord, there are only three arrows left for each soldier in General Xu Sheng's army. If they don't break through, I'm afraid they will fight hand to hand with the 100,000 Yellow Turbans trying to cross the river!"

"Order him to guard the Weihe River."

Chu Tian's tone was indifferent.

On the opposite side, Dorgon selected 10,000 Yellow Turban cavalry and attacked Zhou Yafu and Taishi Ci's flanks from time to time, seriously delaying the speed of Zhou Yafu and Taishi Ci's infantry breaking through the formation.

All of this is to blame Kong Rong and other officials of the Han court in Beihai Kingdom for giving experience to the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, otherwise the average level of the Yellow Turbans would not be that high.

The battle-hardened peasant army is very terrifying. The more they fight, the stronger they become, and they will even become veterans of hundreds of battles.

Coupled with a famous general Dorgon, this battle is extremely difficult to fight.

Chutian was under enormous pressure, and Dorgon was under even greater pressure. He tried his best to maintain his formation, and the morale of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans was extremely low. Influenced by the characteristics of Chutian's "great virtuous teacher", some Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have already turned their backs and surrendered. At first, only a few dozen Yellow Turbans surrendered, but the number of Yellow Turbans who surrendered later became hundreds or thousands.

"Keep fighting, and I will definitely fail. All cavalry follow me and prepare to retreat!"

Dorgon persisted for most of the day, and found that the other Yellow Turban generals could not break through the flank of the Qingxu Allied Army, and could only abandon the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army and only take away the most elite Yellow Turban cavalry.

"Xue Rengui, you lead cavalry archers and heavy cavalry to battle!"

Chu Tian sees the time is about the same, and if he does not break the formation, after the sky gets darker, he is afraid that things will change.

Xue Rengui was ordered to lead the cavalry immediately!

"Order Hua Mulan to attack!"

"Let Xue Wanche break through!"

Almost at the same time, Chu Tian and Zhao Gongzi sent all the cavalry generals, intending to use everything to defeat Dorgon completely!

Nearly 10,000 cavalrymen of the Qing-Xu Allied Forces rushed out of the nest, and the horses' hooves were rolling!

Zhou Yafu and Taishi Ci had already exhausted the arrows and morale of the Yellow Turbans, and when the cavalry went into battle, the outcome was already divided!

The 100,000 Yellow Turbans were beaten to the point where only 80,000 remained. Xue Rengui led the heavy cavalry to conduct an assault.

Hua Mulan then drove the light cavalry straight in, tearing open the gap in the Yellow Turban formation!

The cavalry could not directly attack the pike formation of the Yellow Turbans. Only after Zhou Yafu and Taishi Ci consumed each other's arrows and destroyed the opponent's formation, could the cavalry go straight in!

"Retreat, go to Jimo!"

Dorgon can't do anything when he sees it,

Without the Eight Banners cavalry in his hand, he was powerless to return to the sky, so he took the Yellow Turban cavalry across the river and fled the battlefield.

On a hillside on the other side of the Wei River, a young silver-armored general led more than a hundred Qingzhou cavalry, overlooking the cavalry of Dorgon crossing the river.

He took more than a hundred cavalry down from the hillside and went forward without a hitch, attacking Dorgon who was crossing the river!

Dorgon's cavalry was halfway through, and it was too late to adjust the formation. Suddenly, a team of cavalry rushed to kill without risk of their own lives, and suddenly turned on their backs!

"you again?!"

Dorgon caught a glimpse of a young silver-armored general coming, and he couldn't help panicking. He knew how powerful Zhao Yun was. Once Zhao Yun was close to him, he was not Zhao Yun's opponent.

"kill him!"

Terrified, Dorgon ordered the Yellow Turban cavalry to attack Zhao Yun, and he led a group of cavalry to flee.

Zhao Yun picked more than a dozen Yellow Turban cavalry and pursued Dorgon. This was one of the few opportunities for him to kill Dorgon!

There were Yellow Turban cavalry everywhere, and the Qingzhou cavalry led by Zhao Yun was nibbled away, and the number became less and less. In the end, only 30 cavalry were still following Zhao Yun.

Dorgon had already left while Zhao Yun was being delayed.

The Battle of Weihe didn't end until late at night. Chutian and Zhao Gongzi joined forces to capture Duchang County and join the city to defend it.

Regarding the ownership of Duchang County, Chu Tian made a compromise and let Zhao Gongzi own Duchang County.

It is useless for Chutian to get Duchang County, because this is an enclave located in Beihai Kingdom.

Once he and Zhao Gongzi conflict, Duchang County will be surrounded by Zhao Gongzi's forces, and Chutian's reinforcements will not be able to come.

It would be better to give it to Young Master Zhao as a favor, in exchange for the opportunity to continue plundering the population of Qingzhou.

In this battle, the two lords joined forces to kill more than 20,000 Yellow Turbans, and there were still a large number of Yellow Turbans willing to surrender, but Chutian and the others needed to rest and wait until the next day to recruit the Yellow Turbans.

"Cao Cao fought against the Yellow Turbans for the second time in Zouping County, Jinan. Day and night, he fought against the Yellow Turbans for three days. The Yellow Turbans were defeated! The main force of the Yellow Turbans in Jinan was basically pacified, and Cao Cao's army was about to enter Le'an Kingdom!"

"The surviving lords of Jinan, Le'an, Qi, and Pingyuan County responded to the call of the imperial rebels and divided their troops to destroy the small Yellow Turbans nearby. At least one million people of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were divided up!"

When Chutian won a decisive victory, the Yanzhou army led by Cao Cao pacified Jinan and drove the Yellow Turbans from Jinan to Le'an.

The lords of Qingzhou began to fight back, realizing the importance of plundering the population, and began to follow suit, forced the Yellow Turbans to land, and then let them farm for themselves.

Among them, Cao Cao and Chu Tian were the most ruthless, and they wanted to take all the population of Qingzhou back to their own territory.

The princes and lords of these crusades have unwritten rules that they do not rob each other's prisoners, otherwise the crusade will fight due to the uneven distribution of the spoils.

With the victory of Cao Cao and Chutian in Jinan and Beihai respectively, the main force of the two Qingzhou Yellow Turbans was defeated, and the lords of each road participated in the division of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, and the end of the Yellow Turbans had come.

Facts have proved that the development of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army is too fast, and it will be feared by all the princes and lords. The princes and lords could not just sit back and watch the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army sweep through the three states.

When the princes and lords of Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Qingzhou joined forces, the large-scale Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army would eventually be suppressed because of its unstable foundation.

Unless the Yellow Turban Army successfully becomes a feudal force, it will be difficult to fight against the officers and soldiers.

While stationed in Duchang County, there were small-scale conflicts within the Qingxu Allied Army.

Cao Bao's Xuzhou soldiers wanted to loot the city, but were killed by Zhao Gongzi's general Xue Wanche. Xue Wanche had a bad temper and even wanted to kill Cao Bao.

After Duchang County was recovered, it became Zhao Gongzi's territory, and Xue Wanche could not allow Xuzhou troops to loot in his lord's territory.

The ferocious Xue Wanche took out a knife and chased Cao Bao in the city. Cao Bao, who had always been pampered, had never seen such a scene before, so he hurried to Chutian's temporary residence for refuge.

Chutian had no choice but to mediate the conflict between the Qingzhou army and the Xuzhou army as the prime minister of Langya.

This matter is still Cao Bao's loss.

Looting also pays attention to the Basic Law.

The captured Yellow Turbans can take them away, but they cannot loot the residents of the ally's territory, even if many of them were the Yellow Turbans before.

Xue Wanche only let Cao Bao go because of Chu Tian's presence, but he was still angry.

The end of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army came, and conflicts began to arise between the Qingzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army.

Chu Tian was mentally prepared, and sooner or later he and Zhao Gongzi would part ways.

It is impossible for him to stay in Beihai Kingdom all the time. Beihai Kingdom is the sphere of influence of Zhao Gongzi and Kong Rong.

However, before Chutian left, he wanted to grab as many people as possible.

The next day, Chutian took advantage of the characteristics of a great teacher and personally recruited the Yellow Turbans near Duchang County to surrender. With a population of 100,000, they all moved to Langya with their families.

Zhao Gongzi also tried his best to loot the Yellow Turbans and placed them in Duchang County.

The more people Chutian grabs, the less Beihai Kingdom has.

Zhao Gongzi found that the speed of grabbing the population was not as fast as Chu Tian.

When Chutian grabbed 100,000 people, he only grabbed 50,000 people.

If it weren't for the fact that tens of thousands of people in Duchang County had returned to him, Mr. Zhao would probably have collapsed.

The population of Beihai Kingdom was taken away by Chutian, so it would be useless for him to occupy such a large territory.

"We marched towards Jimo, gathered the Yellow Turbans along the way, and encircled Jimo City."

Chutian and Zhao Gongzi divided about 200,000 Yellow Turbans in Duchang County, and the rest of the Yellow Turbans were scattered, so they attacked Dorgon's last stronghold eastward - Jimo.

Along the way, Young Master Zhao was busy recovering the lost territory of Beihai Kingdom, while Chu Tian was busy looting the population.

Thousands of Yellow Turbans took refuge in Chutian, and Chutian took them all and sent them to Langya.

"My lord, we take in so many refugees, I'm afraid there will be insufficient food."

When Chutian's army approached Jimo, Fang Xuanling reminded Chutian of a serious problem.

Langya may not have enough food to allow Chutian to plunder more people.

"How many people have we robbed?"

"Sixty thousand and three thousand."

Six hundred thousand!

Chutian never thought that he would steal the population of one or two counties, which was equivalent to forcibly moving one or two counties from Beihai Kingdom back to Langya Kingdom.

With the sudden influx of 600,000 people in Langya, the food pressure will increase sharply.

"Enough is enough."

Chutian was worried that the Langya Congress would fall into a food crisis and stopped the forced landing of the Yellow Turbans.

Even so, the Yellow Turbans who line up every day to rely on Chutian are still in an endless stream.

It seems that it is not good to be welcomed by the Yellow Turbans...

Among the 600,000 people, most of them are old and young, women and children, and scrawny refugees, and only one-third of young adults.

The record of suppressing the Yellow Turbans is generally watery, because there are not many elites with real combat effectiveness.

The Qing-Xu Allied Forces marched all the way eastward and surrounded Jimo City.

Once the city of Jimo is broken, then the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army will basically be declared dead.

Kong Rong never imagined that he would still have the day to recover Beihai Kingdom, so he personally rode to persuade the Yellow Turbans who were defending Jimo to surrender, and wanted to convince Dorgon with benevolence, righteousness and morality.

But what responded to him was a flurry of arrows, and Kong Rong fled.

"There are a group of professional soldiers recruited by Dorgon in Jimo City. He originally planned to use Jimo as a stronghold, select the elites of the Yellow Turban Army, transfer their jobs to professional soldiers, and establish a feudal kingdom. At present, there are about 15,000 professional soldiers in Jimo. Fortunately, the imperial court has advanced ahead of schedule. Suppress the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, otherwise once he is allowed to establish a feudal kingdom with 200,000 male soldiers, the threat is greater than the million Yellow Turban Army."

Zhao Gongzi introduced the situation of Jimo to Chu Tian. In addition to the 15,000 professional soldiers, there are also 100,000 young Yellow Turbans in the city. These are the way Dorgon left behind. When the battle is defeated, he can retreat to Jimo and wait for the change.

Chutian observes the solid city of Jimo. Jimo City has a moat and a majestic city wall, and Dorgon intends to turn it into a fortress, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Chutian even doubted whether all his troops were exhausted and whether he could capture Jimo City.

The cavalry is basically useless in the fortified battle, and only the infantry archers can be relied on.

Dorgon was very cunning. He hoarded food and grass in Jimo, and at the same time expelled the old, young, sick, and disabled from Jimo City in advance, leaving only professional soldiers and young Yellow Turbans in order to reduce the consumption of food and grass.

As long as there are soldiers and food, and then use the army barracks in the city to transfer the young Yellow Turbans into professional soldiers in batches, he will have 100,000 professional soldiers, and there may not be no chance of a comeback.

Dorgon is even more difficult than Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui often shriveled under Chutian's hands. And Dorgon can only be suppressed by Chu Tian and Zhao Gongzi working together.

"During the Warring States Period, Yan's general Le Yi broke Qi, Qi's general Tian Dan held on to Jimo, and Le Yi could not capture it for five years. Later, Tian Dan used a stratagem of alienation to change the generals of the State of Yan, and then used the Fire Bull Array to defeat the Yan army and kill him. Yan will ride a robbery and take advantage of the victory to conquer more than seventy cities in Qi."

Facing the majestic Jimo City, Chutian could not afford to attack.

Even if Chu Tian had 100,000 soldiers in his hands, he would be devastated when he attacked Jimo.

"Only besieged."

Zhao Gongzi discussed with Chu Tian, ​​and finally decided to focus on siege.

Dorgon fought the trapped beasts, and the Qing-Xu Allied Forces dug trenches outside the city, set up arrow towers and city walls, and surrounded Jimo City on three layers and three layers outside.

"I have ordered more soldiers and villagers from the rear to completely reinforce the fortifications outside the city. If Dorgon wants to be a tortoise, then I will make him never come out."

Zhao Gongzi recovered several counties one after another and owned half of Beihai Kingdom, so he could call on more local bravery and troops.

At this time, Chu Tian had the idea of ​​retreating.

His purpose of looting the population has been achieved, Dorgon was blocked by Zhao Gongzi in Jimo, and the threat was not great.

Chu Tian and Fang Xuanling predicted that the siege of Jimo might take a year or even several years to end.

Beihai Kingdom is not Chutian's sphere of influence, nor does it belong to Chutian to lay down Jimo.

At the same time, Cao Cao defeated the Yellow Turbans again in Le'an.

However, Cao Cao's Dongjun soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties under the fierce counterattack of the Yellow Turbans, unable to continue the crusade, and announced their withdrawal.

The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army was crippled, and the 270,000-strong crusade army was only in the early 100,000s. The mighty Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army was suppressed.

The ones who benefited the most were the lords of Qingzhou who took the opportunity to expand their territory, and Chutian and Cao Cao who plundered a large number of people from Qingzhou.

Chu Tian proposed to Zhao Gongzi the idea of ​​retreating: "Jimo is handed over to you to besiege. I estimate that it will not be a year and a half, and it will be difficult to conquer."

"I'll be around until Jimo runs out of food."

Zhao Gongzi couldn't tell the bitterness, Jimo was a nail in Beihai, and he had to pull it out.

Chu Tian could just walk away, but he had to continue fighting with Dorgon.

Chutian officially announced his withdrawal from the army and handed over the hard work of besieging Jimo City to Zhao Gongzi.

He did not want to delay the development of Beihai Kingdom for a few years.

On the way back to the division, the headless Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army followed the great virtuous teacher Chutian, and blocked the official road.

Chutian didn't want to take in so many Yellow Turbans, but the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans depended on Chutian and couldn't chase them away, so when Chutian returned to Langya from Jimo, he got another 200,000 Yellow Turban refugees.
