Chapter 224: The plan to change the commander

Chen Liu, Yellow Turban Council Hall. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Jiao frowned, sat on the main seat with a serious face, looked at the major new and old Qu Shuai below, and next to him stood a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old, that girl had bright eyes and bright teeth, a slender figure, shrewd and capable, it was Zhang Jiao's biological daughter Zhang Ning.

Looking at his frowning father, a trace of distress flashed in Zhang Ning's eyes, now Zhang Jiao is the most powerful person in the world, but there is no joy on his face, and some are only deeply tired.

After the complete consolidation of Yanzhou, Chen Liu has become the political center of the Yellow Turban Army, and all government affairs from all directions are pouring towards Chen Liu.

In addition, Zhang Jiao also had to deal with the open and secret battles between the factions within the Yellow Turban, and a series of various things had made this dying old man physically and mentally exhausted.

For the original favorite heir Huang Chao, Zhang Jiao is now very disappointed, after tasting the poison of power, Huang Chao can no longer quit, in order to get on the throne, he goes around to win people's hearts and consolidate his position, lest he lose power.

However, Xiang Yu, the son-in-law who had not been considered by Zhang Jiao before, has now become mature and introverted since he was assisted by the strategist Jia Guo, and now Xiang Yu is really a good candidate for Zhang Jiao's heir.

Where there are people, there is a struggle, and now the Yellow Turban infighting is more intense than before, it was originally a three-legged stand, and now it is the confrontation between Xiang Yu and Huang Chao, Hong Xiuquan also knows that he can't compete with the two, so he consciously withdrew from this competition, and now it has become the object of the two parties' vigorous wooing.

And all this, Zhang Jiao saw it in his eyes, and he was anxious to say it in his heart, he had no ability to organize it at all.

Today's Zhang Jiao's health is getting worse and worse, whether it is energy or physical strength, it is not as good as before, so Zhang Jiao can only disperse his power and only control the overall situation.

Zhang Jiao also knew that he was overworked, and he was afraid that he would not have a few years to live, and the internal contradictions of the Yellow Turban Army had been acute to the extreme, and Zhang Jiao did not dare to imagine what the Yellow Turban would become if he died.

And this decisive battle with the Han family is the last chance for the Yellow Turban to divert the contradictions and unanimous with the outside world, and it is also the last chance for Zhang Jiao!

"Ahem..."

Zhang Jiao coughed twice, which made most of the new and old Qu Shuai present worried, if Zhang Jiao had a little accident now, the good situation that had been formed after more than a year of fighting would be dispersed for a while.

Of course, not everyone in the yellow scarf hopes that Zhang Jiao is good, Zhang Jiao is like a big mountain, as long as he is in one day, no one dares to make the slightest move.

Seeing that he coughed, he attracted everyone's attention, Zhang Jiao laughed at himself, and said lightly: "If you really care about the old man's body, you will do less immoral things." Do you really think that the old man doesn't know about the following things? ”

Zhang Jiaohu's eyes swept around the bodies of all the Qu Shuai present, and everyone couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, and their bodies were tense and didn't move.

Zhang Jiao sighed when he saw this, and said softly: "The uprising of my Yellow Turban Army is for the benefit of the people of the world, if it is not decided today, some scum will use the banner of my Yellow Turban Army to wantonly oppress the people, how does this make the people of the world view my Yellow Turban Army?" ”

When Fang La heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Master, my Yellow Turban's strength is expanding too fast, and it is inevitable that the good and the bad will be uneven below. You can rest assured, whether it is corruption or abuse of power for personal gain, the disciples have been strictly investigating, and will never let go of any moth that ruined my yellow turban reputation! ”

Zhang Jiao heard this, after the last beating, Fang La became much calmer, so Zhang Jiao handed over the most offending thing of anti-corruption to Fang La.

After Fang La took over this position, he has always been iron-faced and selfless, with a tough wrist, killing many people and offending many people, but there are too many moths inside the yellow scarf, some of which are hidden very deeply, and Fang La can't kill them at all!

"Don't just focus on the middle and low levels, the high-level must also be checked, once found, we will not tolerate it!" Zhang Jiao said coldly.

"No!" Fang La said solemnly.

Zhang Jiao nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "How is the grain and grass prepared for the decisive battle?" ”

Most of the Yellow Turban government affairs are handled by Huang Chao, and Huang Chao immediately stood up when he heard it, and said respectfully: "Lord Qiqi, in the past five months, my Yellow Turban has mobilized nearly two million people, and the grain and grass transported to Yanzhou totaled 18 million stones, which is enough for my Yellow Turban army of one million to fight for two years!" ”

Zhang Jiao nodded and continued to ask, "Xiang Yan, how is the training of the Eastern Expeditionary Army?" ”

In order to prevent Huang Chao's dictatorship, Zhang Jiao handed over military affairs to Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan stood up unhurriedly, and said with a smile on his face: "Great Sage and Good Master, at present, there are a total of one million troops in Yanzhou, and my Yellow Turban has always adopted the training method of combining combat training and growing in actual combat, and now the combat power of the army is far beyond the past. ”

"What about the army's costume change?" Zhang Jiao asked.

Although the number of the Yellow Turban Army was large before, the equipment was miserable, and some even fought with wooden guns.

During these five months, Zhang Jiao concentrated the resources of the Quartet and went all out to arm the million-strong army, in order to improve the overall combat strength of the army.

"The million-strong army has been redressed, and all the soldiers have been equipped with iron weapons, with 500,000 large armaments, including 300,000 leather armor troops, 50,000 iron armor troops, and 50,000 cavalry!"

The proportion of equipment in this armor is not low, even the Han army cannot be equipped with armor, except for the Yanmen army, of course.

"Okay, good, with such combat power, my Yellow Turban Army will definitely be able to break through Luoyang and wipe out the Han family!" Zhang Jiao laughed, and asked Zhang Ning on the side: "Ning'er, you and your sister are in charge of the Taiping Guard, let's talk about the current strength of the Han family!" ”

Zhang Ning heard his father finally ask himself, his eyes suddenly bent into crescent moons, and then he remembered something, and became serious again.

"Father, the current situation of my Yellow Turban is not optimistic, the Han family has gathered 400,000 troops, and there is the risk of eight passes, Lu Zhi is even more protective of the Tiger Pass, even if my Yellow Turban has a million troops, it is not easy to attack Luoyang City!"

Zhang Jiao nodded solemnly, he tried his best to finally drag down part of the Han army, and trapped Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to death in Yuzhou and Jizhou, but the Han army still gathered 400,000 troops.

The 400,000 advance may not be enough, but the defense is more than enough, not to mention that the Han family also has a famous general like Lu Zhi who is the best at defense.

"Can we only attack?" Zhang Jiao asked unwillingly, and all the generals also looked solemn.

Among all the battles, the siege war is undoubtedly the most cruel, and it is not easy for the Yellow Turban Army to accumulate this bit of family foundation, and everyone present does not want it, and the sons and daughters under him are consumed in the siege war.

"In order to minimize the casualties, my sister formulated a foolproof 'separation plan', and personally infiltrated Luoyang to implement it." Zhang Ning said confidently.
