They are not holding knives or guns, but sticks.
Some of the better ones are hoes.

"Wow, the Yellow Turban Bandits are here again.
Go and notify General Xu.
Just say that the Yellow Turban Bandits are here."
A strong man at the top of the city was sleeping against a pillar when he suddenly heard shouts from under the tower and opened his eyes in a daze.
He opened his eyes and looked at the Yellow Turban Army under the city tower.
He quickly woke up his sleeping companion and said to his companion in an anxious tone.
After hearing this, his companions opened their eyes in a daze and looked at the army below the tower.
They were also frightened and woke up.
They quickly walked into the tower to prepare to inform Xu Chu.
"Guys in the city tower, haven't you thought about it yet?
Come and make a decision quickly, otherwise we will kill you all after we break through the city gate."
The leader below looked at no one for so long and looked at him with a deep expression.
Terrible, he shouted towards the city.
"Don't be arrogant, leader of thieves below.
You will feel better when we, General Xu, arrive."
The strong man at the top of the city quietly poked his head out from the tower and said to the leader of the yellow scarf bandits below in a somewhat frightened tone.
"I really don't know how to live or die.
When we break through the city gate, I will kill you as the first one."
The leader of the yellow scarf bandits below heard the sound from the top of the city, his face turned dark, and he shouted to the strong man on the city tower in a serious tone. road.
"Attack the city, attack the city."
The leader of the yellow turban bandits looked at everyone and answered with an ugly look on his face.
He raised the spear in his hand and said to the soldiers behind him.
The soldiers behind heard the words of their leader, picked up their weapons and rushed towards the gate of Qiao County.
It didn't take long to block the gate of Qiao County.
They kept beating the city with wooden sticks and hoes.

"What's wrong?"
Xu Chu hurriedly came to the top of the city with his own weapon.
Looking at the Yellow Turban Army blocking the city gate below, he asked the strong man on the top of the city with a somewhat bad expression.
"General Xu, that yellow turban leader, attacks the city at the slightest disagreement.
General Xu, come up with an idea quickly."

"Come on, hurry up and ask people to move some big rocks to block the city gate.
We must not let these yellow turban bandits attack the city gate."
Xu Chu looked at the yellow turban bandits who kept flocking to the city gate, and said in a bad tone to the people behind him.
The soldier said.
After hearing this, the soldier didn't stop any longer and immediately went down to make arrangements.
"It seems that the Yellow Turban Army is going to annex our Qiao County all at once.
Our strength is not enough.
Go and ask General Cao Ren to come over.
No, please come over."
Xu Chu looked at the menacing Yellow Turban Army with a somewhat expression on his face.
Shen Shen, this time the Yellow Turban Army came in more numbers than last time.
It can be said that this time the Yellow Turban Army came out in full force and had to ask Cao Ren for help.
"Yes, general, I will ask General Cao Ren to come over now."
After hearing Xu Chu's words, the soldier behind him quickly responded to Xu Chu and turned to leave for Cao's house.
Just when the soldier was about to leave, a young face suddenly appeared in Xu Chu's mind, and his somewhat cunning smile.
This little guy should have some skills, so he immediately stopped the soldier who had not gone far, with a serious tone.
He said: "Go to the Cao family and invite the boy named Bai from the Cao family."
The soldier heard Xu Chu's words, turned around and nodded to Xu Chu, and then immediately went down to the city towards Cao's house.
"Xu Chu, are you on top?
I think you are a talented person.
Why don't you surrender to our Yellow Turban Army?
Then we will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
The leader of the Yellow Turban Bandits seemed to have seen Xu Chu's looming figure on the tower, and a treacherous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He shouted at Xu Chu on top of the city.
"He Yi, don't say anything.
You think you can persuade me, Xu Zhongkang, to join you Yellow Turban bandits?
You better not waste any more words.
I, Xu Zhongkang, will definitely make you return without success today."
Xu Chu listened to the voice from downstairs and squatted down.
He picked up a stone from the ground, stood up and shouted at He Yi with a very angry tone, then picked up a stone in his hand and threw it at He Yi.
He Yi was a little angry after hearing the sound from the tower.
Suddenly he saw something flying towards him under the tower.
Before he could react, a stone hit He Yi's horse hard.
Finally, the horse was suddenly hit by Xu Chu.
The stones thrown over knocked people off their feet.
"Get out of here!"
He Yi climbed up from the ground with difficulty, holding back the pain all over her body, and gritted her teeth in anger as she looked at Xu Chu on the top of the city.
"General, are you okay?"
As the deputy general, He Man immediately supported He Yi who stood up and asked He Yi with a concerned tone.
"What do you think?"
He Yi glanced at He Man beside him with some displeasure.
He Man was so frightened that He Man quickly retracted his head.
He Yi looked at Xu Chu on the top of the city and shouted angrily at his soldiers. : "Whoever breaks into the city gate and captures Xu Chu alive, I will directly appoint him as deputy commander."
After listening to He Yi's words, the soldiers attacked the city gate even more fiercely.
They rushed to the city gate of Qiao County crazily, beating the city gate crazily with their weapons, hoping to enter Qiao County as soon as possible and capture Xu Chu alive.

Not long after, three people came to the top of the city, one was a middle-aged man, and the other two looked very young.
The middle-aged man was of course Xu Chu, and the two young men were Bai Ren and Cao Ang who had just woken up.
"You are here.
It is very urgent for the Yellow Turban Army to attack the city.
I don't know what you have in mind."
Xu Chu saw the people coming and hurriedly greeted them, speaking to them in a hurried tone.
As an older man and a master in defensive warfare, Cao Ren looked at Xu Chu with a serious face and said in a calm tone: "General Xu, don't worry, let me take a look at the situation on the battlefield."
After hearing what Cao Ren said, Xu Chu quickly brought Cao Ren to the city wall and calmly introduced the situation on the battlefield to Cao Ren, including the enemy's commander, the number and strength of the enemy's troops.
"Currently, the enemy seems to have about 20,000 people.
The current defenders in the city are only 3,000, but the opponent's army is not too strong.
If calculated according to the regular army, the real strength is only 8,000.
We are more than enough to defend the city.
We divided the army into two groups and handed them over To guard the city gate, as long as the city gate is guarded, when the enemy cannot attack Qiao County, they will naturally retreat."
Cao Ren listened to Xu Chu's words, thought about it for a while, and decided to defend the city.
After all, his side did not have the advantage, or Rely on the advantage of the city and spend it with the enemy first.
Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren, listened to Cao Ren's words, and nodded in agreement.
Cao Ren is indeed one of the most famous generals in the Cao family.
He still sees the battlefield clearly and knows how to win.
If it is Cao Hong, If Leng Tou Qing said that, he might just lead the army to fight with others.
"Okay, I'll listen to you.
I hope these Yellow Turban bandits can retreat in spite of the difficulties."
After hearing what Cao Ren said, Xu Chu nodded slightly, expressing his agreement with Cao Ren's opinion.
Looking at the tidal wave of Yellow Turban troops below the city tower, Xu Chu had some expectations. said.
"General Xu, something bad has happened.
Something bad has happened."
At this moment, a soldier quickly came to the top of the city and shouted to Xu Chu with a pale face.
Xu Chu saw the person coming clearly and quickly supported him, asking with concern: "Xu Yi, what's wrong?
What's it like in such a hurry?"
"General, part of the city gate below has begun to be damaged.
Soon the city gate will be breached by the Yellow Turban Army."
Xu Yi looked at Xu Chu with a difficult expression and said
