Chapter 377: Qingzhou Yellow Turban
Floating Smoky Mountain.
The name of Fuyan Mountain originates from the rising clouds and mist, and the smoke is suspended on the mountain, in the mountain, and on the slope of the mountain. Therefore, it is called the Floating Smoky Mountain. A long time ago, the underground water veins of Fuyan Mountain were very abundant, forming fog and mist. Once a treasure trove of feng shui, its slopes are also very suitable for human habitation and other life. There is a foothill under the eastern slope of Fuyan Mountain.
It is said that Emperor Yao, one of the three emperors and five emperors, visited or lived here, but of course it is only a legend, and now it is occupied by a large group of Yellow Turban troops.
The remnants of the Yellow Turban Army did not dare to go to the towns to live, because the people of the imperial court had always exterminated these Yellow Turban thieves, and they could only gather together by their own people, forming relatively large villages around the vicinity of Fuyan Mountain.
The Yaowangtai at the top of the mountain, has now been occupied by the Yellow Turban, and has become the residence of Zhang Mancheng, the envoy of the Yellow Turban Army, and it is also an excellent place for them to watch the people from the imperial court.
Because of the large number of people, coupled with the strong power, Qingzhou's imperial court soldiers and horses, it is difficult to completely exterminate them, the previous Qingzhou Mu Huang Wan, sent more than 30,000 Qingzhou soldiers to encircle and suppress, not only did not defeat Zhang Mancheng's Yellow Turban Army, but lost the army, and did not dare to continue to harass this Yellow Turban Army, so they could only confront each other, while sending people to pay attention to the dynamics of these Yellow Turban thieves, and at the same time thinking of a way, how to solve this trouble.
Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, there were only two or three thousand soldiers in these counties, but later after the implementation of the state pastoral system, Huang Wan took office and began to vigorously rectify, so that all counties and counties could recruit more people to deal with foreign enemies.
Now every town in Qingzhou has at least 5,000 standing county soldiers, so in fact, it is not a problem to transfer 50,000 or 60,000 people at all, but the problem is that even if these Taishou send soldiers and horses to Huang Wan, Huang Wan's ability, there is no way to clean up the Yellow Turban Army of more than 100,000 people.
This has led to the trouble of the Yellow Turban Army all the time, and Huang Wan's side not only has to face the trouble of these Yellow Turban Army, but at the same time, a few months ago, those Karasuma people in Youzhou also ran over to ransack Qingzhou at any time.
In order to guard against the attack of the Karasuma people, Huang Wan had to transfer manpower to establish a defensive line to the north, and the number of troops was even shorter, so naturally the trouble of the Yellow Turban Army was put on hold for the time being.
And the Yellow Turban Army, and the history is very different, in history, the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou did not have a single person with enough prestige, hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, all of them fought on their own, you don't obey me, I don't obey you.
Everyone is not in harmony with each other, and they do not think about anything about attacking cities and occupying counties, as long as there is wine to drink and meat to eat, they are enough.
But now, after the emergence of Zhang Mancheng and the integration of all the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou into a person with one heart, the army of 200,000 is a very serious threat in Qingzhou.
So their minds were also activated, and the first town they targeted was Beihai.
As long as Beihai is conquered, the connection between the various counties and counties of Qingzhou is cut off, and the city of Linzi can be attacked and the city of Donglai can be retreated and occupied, and neither side will be delayed.
With only one month's effort, their people can spread the whole of Qingzhou, spread the flames of war in Qingzhou, and in less than three months, they can defeat the whole of Qingzhou.
When the time comes, if you stabilize the land of a state, you can slowly plot the world, and be a soil emperor like Liu Zheng.
This is what Zhang Mancheng thinks now.
After briefly describing it to Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng nodded, and after understanding their plan, in fact, Liu Zheng felt that their plan was not unavoidable, and even made Liu Zheng feel good.
"Sending troops at this time is indeed an opportunity, taking advantage of the time when Huang Wan sent a large number of men and horses to the north to guard against those Karasuma people, at this time, Huang Wan's people will definitely not be able to react, there is a great chance, you have conquered Beihai City, and they have not received the news yet."
"But you also need to pay attention to the dynamics of Xuzhou, after all, once you rebel in Qingzhou, the people of the imperial court will definitely not sit idly by, and this Qingzhou borders Xuzhou, and there is no place in Xuzhou today where you can use swords, you all appear, it will definitely attract the attention of the officials here in Xuzhou, and when the time comes, you must do a good job of defense."
Liu Zheng said a word to Zhang Man, and then after observing the terrain of this floating smoke mountain, there was nothing to say, after all, these Yellow Turban Army had nothing to do with him now.
And he is not a ruler, no matter how much he says, the other party may not listen to him. So instead of saying more, it is better not to say anything, and when Zhang Mancheng and Zhang Ning need help, he will express some of his opinions.
When the time comes, Zhang Ning and Zhang Mancheng will be able to listen to his opinions even more.
didn't stay long, Liu Zheng just learned about the strength of the various counties in Qingzhou, and after he was roughly clear, he didn't plan to stay here, after all, the place he planned to go to this time was Youzhou.
But when Liu Zheng made a request to leave, Zhang Ning looked at Liu Zheng with a reluctant expression, which made Liu Zheng somewhat reluctant, after all, Zhang Ning's thoughts about Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng was also clear.
After all, Zhang Ning liked Liu Zheng's eyes, and although Liu Zheng also had intentions for Zhang Ning, the two never pierced this layer of window paper.
"Are you really leaving?"
Before leaving, Zhang Ning was reluctant to Liu Zheng and came to see Liu Zheng off.
However, during this time, Zhang Ning has also grown a lot, in her heart, although the private relationship of her children is still what she wants, but avenging her father and recovering the Yellow Turban Army is also what he wants to do, which leads to a very contradiction in Zhang Ning's heart.
I not only want to be by Liu Zheng's side, be a woman who is crazy about love, but also want to be a strong woman who inherits her father's will.
"Well, I still have a lot of things to do, and I can't have the will to stay in Qingzhou."
"Can we meet again?"
Zhang Ning hesitated for a moment and asked the sentence he wanted to ask the most.
Although he is a powerful woman in the eyes of other people, in front of Liu Zheng, she will always show her most feminine side.
"Of course it will, what are you talking about, I will come to Qingzhou again soon, and we will not be able to meet again then."
