Besides, Yang Rui had already sent Huang Zhong and Huang Wudie to guard Langye County, and Zhao Yun and Dian Wei to guard East Sea County. Even if the reigniting of the Yellow Turban Flag was mentioned in the report, it shouldn't threaten the entire county for now.
Even so, according to reports from various places, Jiqiu County in Langxie County was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the Yellow Turbans. Two of the city's defenders were stunned by the sudden appearance of the Yellow Turbans and were quickly defeated and forced to retreat.
In this battle, Yang Rui lost about a third of his soldiers, one of the greatest losses in history.
At the same time, Zhuqi County in Dong Hai County experienced some turmoil. However, there seemed to be no powerful generals among the Yellow Turban Tribesmen nearby. Zhuqi County was still under the control of Yang Rui's troops, but it was heavily surrounded by the Yellow Turban Tribesmen and was in a precarious situation.
Apart from these two counties, there were also Yellow Turbans in the nearby counties. The commotion seemed to have spread far and wide, but it didn't threaten the various cities for the time being.
When Yang Rui received the news, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei had already led five elite soldiers to Jiqiu County and Zhuqi County respectively. However, due to the Yellow Turbans' resurgence, the system shut down the teleportation formation again. It would take them two or three days to arrive.
Huang Zhong and Huang Wudie, who were stationed in Langxie County, had also set off with their troops, but it would take them even longer to arrive.
Back then, in order for Huang Zhong and his daughter to manage the various affairs of Lang Xie County, Yang Rui had specially arranged for them to be stationed in Ju County, near the center of Lang Xie County. It was relatively far from Ji Qiu and Zhu Qi.
At this time, Yang Rui still didn't know where Huang Zhong and Huang Wudie were. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, who were closer to him, first sent a message to him. Yang Rui didn't hesitate at all after receiving the message. He immediately went to Jiqiu and Zhuqi County with Gao Shun, Yu Jin, Cheng Yu, Gao Shun, Yu Jin, and the others who were preparing to go to the terracotta soldier dungeon. At the same time, he added Zhang Ning and led 20,000 soldiers to Jiqiu and Zhuqi County.
Although the teleportation formation was restricted, Yuan Shao should have left Xu Province by now. When Yang Rui returned to Xu Province, he found that Sky City could be used again. With Sky City's speed, it would take less than half a day to go from Siwu County to Jiqiu and Zhuqi County.
Therefore, Yang Rui's troops should arrive at their destination was the target area arrived arrived arrived were much faster than Zhao and Dian Wei and Dian Wei. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei had already set out for half a day.
Yang Rui first rushed to Zhuqi County, which was a little further away. About three and a half hours later, Sky City was already close to the city. At this time, the Yellow Turban Tribe besieging Zhuqi County was fiercely attacking the city!
Perfect timing! Yang Rui didn't hesitate. He immediately controlled Sky City to rush into Zhuqi County. Sky City could be placed in and out of the same faction, even if they were in a state of war.
Yang Rui first released Cheng Yu and his five Fifth Grade Silver-Painted Crossbowmen. They set up the walls of Zhuqi County and shot with all their might to help the soldiers defend the county.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
… "
"Ugh … ah …"
… "
"…"
"…"
The Silver-Painted Crossbowmen were Cheng Yu's special forces. They possessed the power of ordinary Sixth Grade long-ranged soldiers. After being placed on the walls by Yang Rui, Zhuqi County immediately turned into a porcupine. A rain of arrows rained down from the walls.
Even the most elite soldiers at this stage would have a hard time defending against such a concentrated and powerful attack, let alone the Yellow Turban Tribe, whose equipment and grade were mediocre. The city, which had been on the brink of collapse, was instantly stabilized. The Yellow Turban Tribe soldiers who participated in the attack were cut down like chives.
With the help of Cheng Yu and his Silver-Painted Crossbowmen, the offensive of the Yellow Turban Tribe outside the city was quickly suppressed. Many of the Yellow Turban Tribe soldiers were already panicking. They looked helpless, as if they could scatter at any moment.
At this moment, Yang Rui had already placed Gao Shun and his Breakthrough Battalion soldiers at the west gate of Zhuqi County. Of course, Zhang Ning and Yu Jin were also released at the same time. Zhang Ning and Yang Rui stepped onto the Flying Carpet at the same time, quickly flying south.
For a moment, Gao Shun, Yu Jin, and the Breakthrough Battalion soldiers were about to charge out from the west gate. Yang Rui and Zhang Ning, on the other hand, were preparing to unleash a Celestial Fire Rain at the south gate. The defeat of the Yellow Turban Tribe attacking Zhuqi County was certain.
At this moment, a yellow cloud began to spread around Zhang Ning. It was just like the scene when she used the Yellow Turban Sacrificial Altar. Then, it quickly became denser and denser. The area it enveloped was rapidly expanding. In an instant, it had already rushed towards the surrounding Yellow Turban Tribe soldiers who participated in the attack. In just a moment, the entire Zhuqi County was surrounded.
Not only that, the entire county was submerged in the yellow fog. At the same time, the yellow fog was still rapidly spreading outwards. No one knew how far it had spread.
Under such circumstances, Yang Rui immediately understood. Zhang Ning's experiment had worked.
On the way to Zhuqi County, Yang Rui had discussed with Zhang Ning. He asked if there was a way to try and subdue the Yellow Turban Tribe that had erupted in Donghai County and Langxie County. This was also Yang Rui's initial bold idea.
Zhang Ning also expressed that she wasn't clear about this. Although she was the Yellow Turban Saintess, she didn't know how to activate it. Just like how Yang Rui, although he was the person in charge of the Taiping Tribe, he didn't know how to use it.
Zhang Ning's understanding of the Taiping Tribe was deeper. After thinking about it, Zhang Ning confirmed that there was a special method in the Taiping Tribe's Vital Art of Taiping. It was quite similar to the sacrificial ceremony from before.
However, Zhang Ning wasn't sure if this method would work. It was just a guess. She didn't expect it to cause such a huge commotion.
The yellow clouds kept churning. Cheng Yu, Gao Shun, Yu Jin and the others knew that Zhang Ning's method was effective. When Zhang Ning told them about this method in Sky City, Cheng Yu, Gao Shun and Yu Jin were also present. Thus, they stopped and waited for the result from Zhang Ning's side.
The yellow mist lasted for about half an hour. Although it was much shorter than the sacrificial altar, it seemed to last for a long time on the battlefield.
"Welcome Saintess!"
"Welcome Saintess!"
"…"
"…"
Finally, the fog dispersed. The Yellow Turban Tribe soldiers who were originally on the opposing side were all kneeling on the ground. One couldn't see the end of it. Looking down from the city wall, it was a magnificent sight. Their cheers were deafening.
