Chapter 30: Yellow Turban Thieves Everywhere
The speed of the Han's order is not so fast, it takes half a day to issue it from top to bottom, and it can be transmitted from the Sidi region to other places, depending on the time, and the speed of the messenger is different, it can reach a month at the latest.

On the contrary, the communication system of the Yellow Turban Thief is very fast, after all, this is related to the great cause of the entire Taiping Sect, so the messenger is a messenger who is out of the way, and in less than three days, the news has been told to the three Zhang brothers who are far away in Julu, Zhang Jiao has learned everything that happened in Luoyang at this moment, and at this time the envoy of the imperial court can only be out of the tiger prison......
"What? Tang Zhou, he actually! "Knowing that it was Tang Zhou who was the first to expose the Taiping Sect, as his mentor, the blow in Zhang Jiao's heart at this moment was naturally extremely strong.
To say that this disciple is the most talented existence among so many of his disciples and disciples, whether it is cultivating Taoism or medical skills, he is very fast, and he even regards him as the heir to the mantle, and he has even thought about marrying his daughter to him...... It's a good thing now, the most valued disciple has become the number one traitor, and Zhang Jiao only hates himself for not seeing people's eyes.
"Big brother, you can't blame him for this! It is said that he was on the Evil Tiger Ridge at that time and got in touch with Zhou Xing to arrange the operation. But he didn't want the official army to burn down the cottage with fire, and set up an ambush on the way down the mountain, so that he was captured, so that his affairs were brought out. Seeing this, Zhang Bao couldn't help but persuade, but he didn't say anything about Tang Zhouhui's confession, he had already seen that Tang Zhou's talent was good, but in essence, he was a villain who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
It's just that the eldest brother is very fond of Tang Zhou, and the two of them can't say anything.
"Needless to say, betrayal is betrayal, Tang Zhou did a bad thing for me, so that Si Li's foundation was destroyed, and Qu Shuai **** Yi was arrested and beheaded in Xishi, although he was also beheaded, it was not enough to make up for the sins he committed.
Well, now is not the time to talk about that. Now that the Han Emperor already knows our intentions, the original plan for the March (lunar calendar) uprising cannot be carried out, and we must take the lead in the incident before the Han army reacts, otherwise we and the Taiping Sect army will fall into passivity! Zhang Jiao sighed, then raised his head and said.
A large number of Taiping believers began to move towards several states as messengers, and they wanted to inform all the Qu Shuai about the matter in advance. At the same time, Zhang Jiao also summoned all the believers in Julu County, and after more than ten years of preaching, he already has more than 500,000 believers! There are tens of thousands of core Dao soldiers!
Looking at the dense crowd at the next place, Zhang Jiao couldn't help but feel a little proud, ten years of hard work was finally not in vain. Many of them did not know about their plans, nor did they know that the Taiping Sect was about to be wanted by the Han Dynasty. But they also can't escape, as long as they have a relationship with the Taiping Sect, then they can't be left alone.
"The Han Dynasty is the first few to tell the world that the Taiping Sect is positioned against the party, and all the local states and counties of the sect can be rounded up or even killed!" Zhang Jiao shouted loudly, passing on the worst news.
With a "boom", the following exploded directly, and most of the disciples didn't expect it to become like this. Wasn't the Taiping Sect recognized as a righteous sect by the local government before? Why did you suddenly become a traitor? More people are thinking at this moment, if this is the case, should they quit the Taiping Sect and become an enemy of the imperial court, which is quite unwise!
"Everyone!" Zhang Jiao shouted, perhaps using some kind of technique, but the voice was deafening, "Since you have joined the Taiping Sect, even if you have only joined for one day, then you are already members of the Taiping Sect!" Ladies and gentlemen, do you think that the Han court, especially the greedy officials, will give up plundering your family property just because you have withdrawn? ”
As soon as Zhang Jiao said that, everyone immediately calmed down, and they knew exactly what the official government, especially those officials who relied on buying officials, were clear. Especially in the Jizhou area, many officials bought officials, and after taking office, they continued to raise taxes, the purpose of which was to earn back the money spent on buying officials.
With their greedy and ugly faces, if the documents were really issued from above, then they would naturally not miss this opportunity to collect money. At that time, I am afraid that not only them, but also some rich families will be labeled as Taiping by them, and then directly rob their family wealth and property.
Thinking of this, these believers suddenly shuddered, and at the same time they were very dazed and a little overwhelmed.
"Dear believers! Now there are only two ways in front of you, either you wait for death silently, and watch your family property and land be taken away by those greedy bureaucrats, and even your wife and daughter will become their playthings, and you may be killed by them!
Either stand up with me, take up your weapons, burn your blood, and let us work together to overthrow this rotten man and establish a prosperous era of Huang Tian that belongs to us! This is the only way for you to live! Zhang Jiao just waited for everyone to be at a loss, and then suddenly spoke, which not only had the best effect, but also gave them almost no choice.
No one wants to die, if they die when they are old, they will die, but if they are killed like this, they will be killed as traitors, and even their families will be bullied because of this. Humiliation, that is unacceptable.
In other words, there is only one way left before them, and that is to rebel. Rebellion may lead to death, but not rebellion will definitely die!
At this moment, everyone's eyes became red, rebellion or something, they didn't dare to think about it before, but at this moment, they had no way out except rebellion!
"Fellow believers, don't take chances, this sect leader doesn't bother to deceive you! This is the official document of the imperial court, which has clearly written that the whole country is arresting Taiping believers, if you don't believe it, you can come up and take a look! You see, it doesn't say it will forgive you! Zhang Jiao knew that there were still many of them who felt that they were lying to them, or that they would be forgiven if they surrendered.
Suddenly, some people who knew the words went up, and chanted word by word, and sure enough, as Zhang Jiao said, the imperial court did not have the intention of pardoning those who broke away from the Taiping Sect, this is the rhythm of killing everything!
"The heavens can't tolerate us!" After the proclamation was recited, the proclamation began to cry with tears in his eyes, and this cry directly caused more people to cry, and they did not expect it to become like this.
"Don't weep, don't panic! The sky has decayed, he can no longer stop us from changing the power of the heavens and the earth, this year is the year of Jiazi, and let us overthrow this corrupt and depraved sky, and establish a prosperous yellow sky! Zhang is not talented, and assures you that if the prosperous era of Huangtian is established, Zhang will inevitably build a beautiful world where the cultivators have their fields, the cold have their clothes, and the hungry have their food! The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky! Zhang Jiao finally made a pre-war mobilization.
In the midst of despair, these words were like a beacon, especially among the followers of the Taiping Sect, there were many landless tenants, and the temptation of food and clothing, especially the fields, was huge.
So for a while, more people joined in, chanting constantly, and finally almost everyone chanted together.
The entire Julu County quickly took action, and this momentum even quickly spread to the surrounding states and counties, and in a very short period of time, Zhang Jiao gathered millions of people in Jizhou, starting from Julu to conquer the city. Even many county officials themselves are Taiping Christians, knowing that they will probably be questioned, they simply gritted their teeth and opened the city gate to welcome the Yellow Turban thieves into the city.
As for the defenders in other places, most of them only had more than 500 people, and most of them were no more than 1,000 people. The few who have the temperament pay the price of their lives to prove their loyalty to the Han, but the result is often the slaughter of the entire city.
At the same time, he even sent Cheng Zhiyuan and Deng Mao to command an army of 50,000 to kill Youzhou; At the same time, there were also yellow turban thieves in Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Bingzhou and Xuzhou, and the number of uprisings suddenly increased to millions, and the scale of the uprisings spread almost throughout the Central Plains and Hebei regions.
Fortunately, at this moment, the speed of the envoys of the official army has increased a lot. Most of these envoys were messengers from all over the country who knew that the Yellow Turban Thieves had rebelled in advance, and they were worried that their cities would be destroyed, so they sent them to ask for help. The local report was reported to the county guard, and the county guard reported to the assassin history, and the assassin history of several places also sent people to report to the emperor of Luoyang one after another.
Liu Hong was also taken aback when he heard this, the scale of hundreds of people has almost surpassed Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and even Green Forest's red eyebrows. If these traitors are twisted together, then the big man may really have to change the world!
After learning of this, Liu Hong immediately recruited the general He Jin, the uncle of the country, and asked him how to deal with the matter.
He Jin was originally just a butcher, and his own political level was not high. Because of this, he recruited a large number of staff members to help him with advice, including historical celebrities such as Xu You, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
Summoned this time, these staff members also analyzed what the Han Emperor might inquire about and worked out a solution. There are several ways to do this, but according to the general practice, the result is often the next one.
"Your Majesty can order the world to assassinate history and recruit new soldiers to resist the Yellow Turban Thieves. At the same time, the children of good families who have a great heart in the world are allowed to form a volunteer army to protect their homes, and even assist the imperial court to suppress the Yellow Turban thieves! The imperial court can also form several armies to defeat the rebels! He Jin said the next step, this should be the safest and least expensive plan.
No way, Liu Hong knows that he can't afford to spend a penny, if it costs too much, I'm afraid he won't agree. And this is indeed the case, knowing that the central government hardly needs to pay much for this plan, Liu Hong naturally agreed.
"But I don't know who the general is?" Since you want to form a large army, you naturally need generals who will lead the army.
"This needs to be discussed between His Majesty and the courtiers." He Jin originally planned to recommend a few, but remembering Cao Cao's advice, he immediately replied respectfully.
Liu Hong did not completely lose his mind, and asked casually until he was in order, and he really asked He Jin to promote his henchmen and commanders, but I was afraid that he would not agree. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, relatives and eunuchs were the two mountains that the emperor couldn't avoid, and he wouldn't allow He Jin, a relative, to sit big!
"It's good! Come on, immediately announce that the courtiers will come to the court! Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, and then ordered to the little yellow door beside him.
