Linzi, because it is close to Zishui, is called Linzi.

Linzi was the capital of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it was a big city with a large number of households in the world, with 70,000 households. In the Han Dynasty, it was even more remarkable, for a long time, it was the only metropolis in the whole country, and even on the entire planet, with a population of more than one million people.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, Linzi has always been the capital of Qingzhou, subordinate to Qi County, Qingzhou Thorn History, Qi County Taishou generally to Linzi as the governing place.

The predecessor of Qingzhou Assassin Shi Jiaohe, now in Linzi, this person is unparalleled in eloquence and erudite, so he was recommended by the imperial court to serve as the post of Qingzhou Assassin. However, Jiao He has a cowardly personality and strange behavior, favoring wizards and not sympathizing with Li Min. In Qingzhou, the yellow turban bees rose up and disturbed the people, and he didn't care about these, and the people suffered greatly.

Last year, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army rose up, wantonly causing chaos, Jiao He did not know how to use soldiers, and he specifically liked to side the door. Every time he sent troops to fight against the Yellow Turban, he had to ask the gods for divination, if it was a good omen, he could send troops, if it was a bad omen, he would never send troops, and several times he missed the opportunity to ask for thieves, causing the Yellow Turban to get out of control more and more.

If it weren't for Jiao He, who was very famous, Liu Bei would have wanted to cut him directly.

However, Jiao and superstitious wizards also have the benefits of superstitious wizards. Of course, this benefit is for Liu Bei.

Xi Zhicai said to Liu Bei: "Jiao He is a superstitious wizard, and he is very important to him, whether it is praying for blessings and sending troops, or hearing news and divination, it can be said that he obeys his words. If the lord can bribe this person heavily, great things can be done. ”

Liu Bei sent someone to bribe Jiao He's sorcerers to gain his trust.

At this time, when he heard that Liu Bei was coming, Jiao He asked a wizard for divination.

This wizard had already received Liu Bei's generous gift, and after a hexagram at the moment, he said to Jiaohe: "If you leave Qingzhou this time, when you go to Beijing, you will definitely be able to rise to the top, even if you are ranked as the third duke, it is just a matter of waiting for leisure." "This wizard knows Jiao He and knows that he is an official fan, so he only talks about being promoted to become wealthy, and does not mention Liu Bei.

Jiao He was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to himself: Now among the Beijing teachers, it is Yuan Taifu who is in charge, reusing scholars, with my fame, the position of the three dukes, what is the difficulty. What's more, the hexagram is like this, it is the will of heaven. If you do not accept what God has given you, you will be punished, and if you do not act when the time comes, you will suffer calamity.

Besides, at this time, it has not yet reached the time after the princes crusade against Dong Zhuo, the place is bigger, and the imperial court sends an assassin to history, and the people below dare to send troops to beat people away.

Therefore, Jiao He happily handed over the seal letter of Qingzhou Thorn History, and prepared to go to the capital to see if he could move the three princes out.

When Jiao He left, Liu Bei ordered the Qingzhou army to gather and review the troops.

Most of the army in Qingzhou was concentrated in Linzi by Jiaohe, with more than 30,000 people, and there was no shortage of food, ordnance, baggage and so on.

When Liu Bei saw it, he was overjoyed, and he made people preach his government and soldier policy to everyone. Suddenly, more than 30,000 Qingzhou soldiers thundered with joy.

In other words, Liu Bei is not a hero in troubled times, he was an ordinary part-time worker before he crossed over, anyway, he would divide the land with such a move, fortunately, in this era, there is no need to fight local tyrants, and a lot of effort has been saved.

Now Liu Bei has a large number of soldiers and horses, 28,000 soldiers from the plains, 20,000 soldiers from Mount Tai, and more than 30,000 soldiers from Qingzhou. Together, there are almost 80,000 people, almost 90,000 people.

So, Liu Bei discussed with everyone: "The newly recruited soldiers of Mount Tai, the soldiers of Linzi Qingzhou, and the unknown henchmen, I want to set up a supervisor for every 100 people, supervise military discipline, count war achievements, I don't know what Qing wants." ”

Now, Liu Bei occupies Linzi, which can be said to be a prince, so he occasionally began to put on a score and said things like "Qing".

In fact, Liu Bei had already agreed with Xi Zhicai about the matter of supervising the army, and he wanted to act in a play, and at that moment, Xi Zhicai said: "It is a good policy to supervise all armies with the captain of the supervising army." It's just that if you only set up a supervisor lieutenant in the new army, but not in the old army, I am afraid that there will be a dislike, and it will not be beautiful. It is better to set up a supervising lieutenant in the new army and the old army together, and please think twice. ”

Liu Bei asked the generals again.

All the generals said: "The commander of the supervising army can supervise military discipline, count military exploits, assist the commander-in-chief, and be in the army." ”

Liu Bei and Xi Zhicai looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Since everyone has no opinion, this matter is so decided." ”

In this way, this military power was grasped by Liu Bei more firmly.

Xi Zhicai offered another plan: "I have a plan, but I can break the yellow scarf in Qingzhou." ”

Liu Bei asked, "Ji will come out." ”

Xi Zhicai said: "I watched the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and I wanted to attack Linzi, but I couldn't do it for a day. Now that the lord has entered Linzi, why not pretend to be at odds with Jiao Thorn Shi and fight with the lord, if the Qingzhou Yellow Turban learns the news, he will definitely come, and he can be captured in a battle. ”

Everyone praised the clever plan, and Liu Bei divided the soldiers and horses into two parts, one under the banner of Liu Bei, and the other under the banner of Jiao He, and the two made a fight against each other. Every day, Liu Bei slaughtered pigs and sheep, rewarded the three armies, and sent the commander of the prison army into the army. As for the exercise of offensive and defensive momentum, it can be regarded as a drill.

At the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there was no large-scale Yellow Turban Rebellion in Qingzhou. This is not because there is no Taiping Road in Qingzhou, or there are fewer Taiping Road.

Instead, the leader of Qingzhou Taiping Road, Tang Zhou, a native of Jinan, surrendered to the court of the Han Empire.

At that time, Zhang Jiao sent Tang Zhou to Luoyang to report to the internal response of the court, and the eunuchs Feng Zhen and Xu Feng were two, but Tang Zhou went to the province to report Zhang Jiao's rebellion, and Ma Yuanyi and others of the Yellow Turban Party were killed.

Therefore, before the Zhang Jiao uprising, the Qingxu Yellow Turbans were arrested and killed in the local Taiping Dao because of Tang Zhou's whistleblowing, so that there was no leader in Taiping Dao, which led to the lack of momentum at that time, and was quickly pacified, but the Taiping Dao heritage in the Qingxu area was very rich.

In fact, the origin of Taiping Dao is in the coastal area of Qingxu, and the reason why Taiping Dao teaches Taiping Dao is because their program of rebellion is called "Taiping Qing Lingshu". And this "Taiping Qing Collar Book" appeared in the Lang Evil Kingdom of Xuzhou during the time of Emperor Shun.

At that time, there was a man named Gong Chong, who claimed that his master Gan Ji had obtained a set of heavenly books in a spring in Quyang County, Donghai Kingdom, called "Taiping Qing Lingshu".

Gong Chong dedicated this book to the imperial court, and after the appraisal of the imperial court officials, they believed that this book was made by man, not a book of gods, so it was not promoted.

However, this book was circulated and studied among folk Taoist priests.

The folk customs of Qingxu are extremely fierce, and there have often been droughts and floods in Qingxu for decades, so in October last year, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out again in this area of Qingxu.

Qingxu Yellow Turban, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, was easily suppressed because of the loss of the head. For the Han Dynasty, there were pros and cons.

Advantageously, it was relatively easy to defeat the Yellow Turbans at the time.

The disadvantage is that the Qingxu Yellow Turban has lurked.

Now leading the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is Zhang Rao, Xu He and Sima Ju.
