Since Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and others rebelled, there have been many followers.

In just over a month, the number of subordinates under Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju has reached more than 100,000, most of whom are remnants of the Yellow Turban.

It has been nearly two years since the outbreak of the Yellow Turbans, and although the main force of the Yellow Turbans was wiped out in November of that year, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans against the party still exist, like a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff.

Small-scale riots still broke out in various parts of the Eastern Han Dynasty from time to time, and countless toiling people who were oppressed by the Han court had no choice but to rise up and become enemies of the imperial court.

Today's Han has long been incorrigibly decayed, from the inside to the outside, from top to bottom, full of holes.

The voices of rebellion against the imperial court are very loud in various places, and the forces that resist the imperial court emerge in endlessly, and the situation is quite good in Youzhou, where Jiang Xiaobai is in charge.

In addition to Youzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou, the forces that resisted the Han court seemed to be unbeatable Xiaoqiang, even if the imperial court continued to send officials and troops to suppress it, but with little effect.

Those forces that rebel against the imperial court are not stupid, and the front is definitely not the opponent of the government, they can only fight, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy fights and I hide.

Firmly implement the 16-character policy!

In this way, the rebel forces in various places shook the already decadent Han world bit by bit.

When the imperial court was exhausted, it could only acquiesce to the gradual expansion of the local private armed forces in order to cope with the deteriorating situation in the country.

Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao of Yanzhou, Liu Dai of Assassin History, Qiao Mao of Dongjun Taishou, Bao Xin of Jibei Minister, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong of Qingzhou, and Wang Kuang of Hanoi County of Gyeonggi Prefecture, etc., these people took advantage of the suppression of the remnants of the Yellow Turban and the local resistance forces, and under the nose of the Han Ting, they recruited troops and horses to develop their power.

And these people, they are all one of the princes who participated in the Dong Alliance a few years later.

Having said that, when Jiang Xiaobai took office as the pastor of Youzhou, he immediately issued several decrees, and with the implementation of these decrees, millions of people in Youzhou were extremely supportive and supportive of him.

Therefore, Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and other anti-thieves revolted, and few people participated in them.

The people's support for Jiang Xiaobai made Zhang Chun and other thieves particularly jealous, and also successfully aroused their murderous hearts.

Burning the city, torturing and killing the people, the thieves did all the evils wherever they went, and dropped the butcher's knife on the local defenseless people, and they were mad.

Even Zhang Chun and other anti-thieves released words, as long as anyone cursed Jiang Xiaobai, they could live and avoid death.

But none of the people came forward.

Since Jiang Xiaobai took office as the pastor of Youzhou, he has done his best to do things for their sake, exempting and exempting land taxes, and promulgating various policies that are beneficial to the people......

Such a parent official cannot be slandered!

Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and other anti-thieves ran rampant, did evil, and successively caused trouble in Yuyang County and Youbeiping County...... All the way to the east, stretch out the devil's claws to Changli County.

Why do thieves only invade to the east and not to the west?

Because to the west of Yuyang County, it is the Yan country where Jiang Xiaobai is located.

Zhang Chun is not stupid, he knows how powerful Jiang Xiaobai is, whether it is the generals under his command or the army under his command, it is not something that these mud-legged thieves can shake.

Therefore, Zhang Chun led tens of thousands of anti-thieves all the way to the west and expanded his power all the way.

When Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and others invaded Changli County, Eastern Xianbei made a move.

Su Li, the leader of Xianbei in the east, led 30,000 Xianbei soldiers to set out from the Mobei grassland, across the White Wolf Mountain, from the border Liucheng into Youzhou, and into Changli County.

Yan Rou, the defender of Liucheng, had already received Jiang Xiaobai's order to open the door to Xianbei in the east, and personally accompanied the army and settled under Su Li's tent to listen to his dispatch.

On the one hand, Yan Rou was familiar with Changli County, and with him as his guide, Eastern Xianbei would not become a headless fly, rushing around.

On the other hand, it was the army that monitored the actions of Xianbei in the east, in order to prevent Su Li from taking the opportunity to invade Youzhou under the pretext of helping.

Yan Rou led the way, and the leader Su Li led 30,000 Xianbei soldiers to familiarize themselves with the road, and ambushed Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and other rebels at the junction of Changli County and Youbeiping County, a place called Liugu River.

However, they were rebelled by 100,000 rebels led by Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju!

In this battle, the number of casualties in the eastern Xianbei reached 3,000, and if Su Li hadn't followed Yan Rou's advice and escaped from the lower reaches of the Liugu River in time by virtue of the rugged terrain of Pingyong Mountain, the number of casualties would have doubled.

Defeat in the first battle!

As the supreme leader of Xianbei in the east, Su Li naturally would not be beaten down by this defeat, after the battle, he reflected with Yan Rou and found that everyone seemed to ignore it, this time Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and other anti-thieves rose up, and Qiu Liju, the leader of Wuhuan, was also involved.

Although Wuhuan and Xianbei are two ethnic groups, because they are both Hu people, the relationship between them is quite harmonious.

The Xianbei soldiers in the east sent to Youzhou, and Qiu Liju, the leader of Wuhuan, was bound to receive the news.

The whereabouts were revealed, which led to the failure of the Liuguhe ambush in the eastern Xianbei, and was instead besieged by the anti-thieves.

Inside the eastern Xianbei, there is a mole!

"Leader Suli, do you have a candidate for the identity of this traitor?"

After retreating to Shicheng, Yan Rou found Su Li, the leader of Xianbei in the east, although many Xianbei people have connections with Wuhuan, but if they can contact Qiu Liju, then this person's identity must not be low.

Most likely, it was the tribal leaders under Sully's command.

Su Li's brows furrowed, he had no clue about this matter at the moment, he led his army into Youzhou, and the only tribal leaders who followed him were Micah and Huaitou.

But it should not be rashly thought that the inner ghost comes from the two.

Because of this action, more than a dozen tribal leaders in the entire eastern Xianbei were aware.

Seeing that Su Li frowned and was silent, Yan Rou groaned slightly: "Leader Su Li, I have a plan, I don't know if it can be used?" ”

"Please." Sully said.

"Now Zhang Chun, Qiu Liju and other anti-thieves are stationed in Pingcheng, we can lead the army to attack Pingcheng, if the anti-thieves can still be unpredictable, it means that the inner ghost is now under our noses, so that we can lock the inner ghost and find out the inner ghost."

Listening to Yan Rou's suggestion, Su Li's frowning brows not only did not soothe, but wrinkled even tighter.

Although Su Li didn't speak, Yan Rou knew what he was worried about, and couldn't help laughing: "Leader Su Li, we Han people have a saying, it is called when you are cut off and constantly suffer from chaos, since you are willing to send troops to Youzhou to clear out the anti-thieves, it means that you have already chosen a position." ”

"Now, there are internal ghosts and anti-thieves in the army, if we don't get rid of the internal ghosts, all our whereabouts in the future, the enemy army knows all of our whereabouts, how can this battle be fought?"

"I know that there is an inner ghost, but because of the affection of my compatriots, I am indecisive and indecisive, Leader Suli, you are merciful to this inner ghost, but have you ever thought about it, it is because of this person that you have lost 3,000 people."
