Volume 69 of the Taiping Sutra says: The king of water will have less fire, and if there is less fire, he will turn to ashes, and if he turns into ashes, he will become earth, so he will be called fire, and he will pay gas to the earth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

According to the order of the five elements and the phase system, the fire decay is the earth generation Wang, the Han Dynasty is the king of fire, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and the people who prosper on behalf of the Han Dynasty should be the soil virtue, the soil is yellow, so Zhang Jiao calls himself Huangtian, and all the uprisings are wearing yellow scarves, which means to stand on behalf of the Han.

He chose to launch an army on March 5 of the year of Jiazi, and raised the slogan "The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the year is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious", which also reflects the religious concept of Taiping Dao.

Volume 39 of the Taiping Sutra says: A, heaven also, gang also, yang also; The one who is the one, the son is also, the yin is also, and the Ji is also; Therefore, the heavens and the earth are always together, and its outline is at the beginning of Xuanjiazi,...... All things are born with A as the head, and the son is the foundation, and the attack on the above Jiazi is also out of the order.

The choice of Jiazi to start the army means that it will be auspicious, and Zhang Jiao's Huang Tian will replace Cangtian and create a new dynasty.

The date of the event is set for March 5 also has this meaning. The theology of the Han Dynasty propagated the theory of the Three Fives, believing that its encompassing cycle meant the rise and fall of dynasties.

The so-called three five refers to the three elements of heaven, earth and man and the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth. The "Taiping Sutra" says: The three or five qi are harmonious, and the sun and the moon are always bright, which is peace.

In later generations, there is also the saying of the Three Platforms and Five Constants, which originated from Taoism.

The three brothers were called the Heavenly Prince, the Earthly General, and the Rengong General, followed by the Eight Divine Envoys and the Thirty-six Commanders, and these titles were related to Shinto beliefs.

The idea of the Three Righteous Ideas of Heaven, Earth, and Man was popular in the Han Dynasty and is also the core concept of the Taiping Sutra.

The Taiping Sutra says: There are three names of vitality: the sun, the yin, and the neutral. There are three forms of body: heaven, earth, and man, there is heaven to govern, there is earth to govern, there is man to govern, and the three qi poles are governed, and then all things are governed.

He also said: Therefore, heaven is good and does not hurt, so it is called the king and the father. The earth is good for all things, so it is called a good minister and a mother. People should be benevolent with their hearts, and love and nurturing like heaven and earth, so they are called benevolent. These three are also good, so they have to share all things and be their teachers.

In the Han Dynasty, the Duke often referred to the gods, and the three brothers of Zhang Jiao called themselves the generals of the Heavenly Father, the Earth Prince, and the Human Father, indicating that they were generals sent by the Yellow Heaven and were gods.

The Eight Envoys and the Thirty-six Fang Qu Shuai are related to the concept of the Bagua God and the number of 360 days in a year, so as to reflect the religious concept of Taiping Dao.

Of course, the current Three Dukes did not directly attack Huanglong as they expected in advance, but stayed in Guangzong aggrievedly.

Two powerful thief armies, led by Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng, fought in Yingchuan, Nanyang and other areas respectively, and were horns against each other.

The Yellow Turban Army was numerous and powerful, like moths everywhere, and was officially called moth thieves.

The Yellow Turban Army, led by Zhang Mancheng, captured Nanyang and killed the county guard Chu Gong; The Yellow Turban Army of Runan County defeated Taishou Zhao Qian at Shaoling; Who knew that when they were attacking Pingyu, a thunderbolt suddenly appeared, and they were defeated and lost.

After this battle, Zhao Man led the Runan army to fight everywhere, and in less than ten days, he drove all the thief troops in the territory out of Runan.

When the news reached Luoyang, even Zhao Wen was puzzled, of course he knew very well what kind of person his nephew was.

However, now is not the time to investigate the specific details, the form of the whole country is only Runan, no matter what, I have to ask for credit for my brother. The court lost Zhao Zhong's aid, but fortunately, the real Dinggong was like a needle in the sea, and the idlers did not dare to touch the Zhao family.

In the Pingyu City, the lights are colorful, and it is even more lively than the New Year.

Zhao Qian knew very well that the emperor was still a little confused, even if the reward in the future was roughly just a feudal marquis. He definitely didn't dare to let himself enter the court again, otherwise, just like Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui brothers, the Zhao family would become one of the few families in the world just around the corner.

Zhao Man captured some of the people and made it clear to the Yellow Turban generals that these people would be sent to Jiaozhou, and General Zhennan would lighten their burden. Secretly, a lot of food was exchanged for weapons, and the yellow turban almost emptied Runan.

Of course, all these transactions are unknown to even the old man of his family.

After all, what Zhao Yun meant, Sun Jian and the others are already very powerful, and the difficulty of Nanyang alone is not enough. If you let go of Runan's past, even if the Jingzhou people win, it will be a miserable victory in the end.

"Uncle, the little nephew will leave today!" Xun Yu's heart was like an arrow, and he couldn't wait to return to Yingchuan, where he was born.

The family's treatment of Zhao Yun was indeed inappropriate, and the circumstances that had been expected were revealed one by one, and I don't know if those old masters would admit their mistakes. But none of this matters, the key Xun family's roots are in Yingchuan, and he must go back.

Yingchuan and Runan are both counties belonging to Yuzhou, and the two counties are next to each other, so it is difficult to say which county is more important.

Runan is bordered by Nanyang in the west, Shouchun in the south, Peiguo, the birthplace of Gaozu in the east, Chen in the north, and Yingchuan in the northwest.

Although the area of Yingchuan is less than 30% of Runan County, it is the capital of the Han Kingdom in the west, and its location is quite important.

In one fell swoop, Emperor Ling added a large number of men and horses to the pass from Yingchuan to Luoyang, first sent Zhu Jun to Yingchuan to preside over the war, and even appointed Wang Yun to assassinate the history of Yuzhou, which was also to serve to exterminate the moth thieves.

As soon as Wang Yunfu arrived, he immediately recruited Kong Rong, Li Yan, and Huang Yu to engage in it, and joined up with Yingchuan Taishou, who had returned to Luoyang from Jiaozhou due to illness, and reappointed Yang Biao, and jointly pressed towards the Yellow Turban step by step.

Since the Han Dynasty and even since the Qin Dynasty, the title of a county magistrate is not based on the size of the county, but according to the population. More than 10,000 households, regardless of the size of the region, are called county orders, and less than 10,000 households are long.

Yingchuan County, from north to south, is the Lun family, which is the place where Dong Zhuo's father used to be the county lieutenant, and it is the closest to Luoyang.

To the southeast is Yangcheng, which flows down the Yingshui River and is the seat of the county seat of Yingchuan. To the southwest is Jiaxian.

Further south, the five counties of Fathercheng, Xiangcheng, Yingyang, Yingyin, and Changshe are almost lined up in a line.

Immediately afterwards, there are five counties: Wuyang, Dingling, Linying, Xuxian and Yanling; Kunyang, where Emperor Xiaoguangwu launched the Battle of Kunyang, is located between Mucheng County and Wuyang County in the southwest.

In the end, one Yun County squeezed into Runan County, and another Xinji County squeezed into the territory of Chen State.

The densely packed seventeen counties, each of which has a county magistrate, shows the high population density.

The county commander and the governor are all Qin officials and govern their counties. More than 10,000 households are ordered, and the rank is from 1,000 stones to 600 stones. Minus 10,000 households is long, and the rank is 500 to 300 stones. There are all Cheng and Wei, with a rank of 400 to 200 stones, and they are for the chiefs.

Below the hundred stones, there is the rank of fighting food and Zuoshi, which is for the young officials. The large rate is ten miles and a pavilion, and the pavilion is long; Ten pavilions and one township, the township has three elders, ranks, husbands, and wanderers. The three elders are in charge of education; Hearing lawsuits and collecting taxes; Wander around and forbid thieves.

The county is a hundred miles, and its people are densely reduced, and the sparse is deserted, and the same is true for townships and pavilions. All Qin system also.

There are ranks, three elders, and wandering in the township. This note says: There is a rank, the county office, the rank of 100 stones, and the people of a township; The township is small, and the county has one husband. All the lords know the good and evil of the people, serve first, know the rich and poor of the people, and give them how much they give, and even their poor products. The three elders are in charge of education. Whoever has a filial son and grandson, a virgin and a righteous woman, who gives money to save the trouble, and a bachelor who is a civil law, all of them are flat and show their doors, so as to prosper good deeds. Wander and follow the palm, forbidding rape and thieves. There are also townships, which belong to the townships, and the main people collect taxes.

The pavilion has a pavilion chief to prohibit thieves. The Lord prayed for the thief, and he looked to the captain.

There are Li Kui in the inside, and the people have Shiwu, and good and evil are told. This note says: Li Kui is in charge of one hundred families. Ten families of the lord and five families of the lord of Wu are inspected by each other. and the people have good deeds and evil deeds to sue the judges.

It can be said that the civil management of the Han Dynasty is very strict, and most of these yellow scarves are flocked from other places. After the impact of the thief army, the grassroots of the entire Yingchuan County was almost paralyzed.

Originally, Xun Yu only wanted to take a part of the people to the north, after all, although the yellow scarf in Runan was driven away, it was in Nanyang County next door.

However, with a wave of his hand, not only did he and Zhao Man, Zhao Yi, Zhao Li, Zhao Zhi, and Zhao Xin all the soldiers brought from Jiaozhou go, but even the local soldiers in Runan were given seventy percent to them.

The old man thought very widely, after all, the Yellow Turban of Runan and the Yellow Turban of Yingchuan did not match their faces and hearts, they originally wanted to meet with Bocai, but they were treated coldly, and instead of Shaoling, they started a fierce battle with the soldiers of Runan County, and chased Pingyu.

Now that they have been driven to Nanyang, if they dare to come back, it will be a big deal for Xun Yu and them to return to the army. After all, with the walls of the county town and the county soldiers, it can still support ten and a half days and a month.

In the end, Xun Yu selected 3,000 who could ride horses, led the cavalry to gallop through the starry night, and adopted the Mangu gang tactics in Linying, and wiped out the scattered yellow turbans in one fell swoop. When the Yingyin Xun family heard the news, they immediately came to escort all the more than 20,000 captives to Jiaozhou.

Then, everyone rushed to the main battlefield Changsha without stopping.
