vs 45 How to Know the Heavens [5]
Zhang Qian buried his head in thinking about it again, if he used this reason to explain the whole thing, logically speaking, it was very reasonable. Although with the help of the technique of "pointing", Zhang Mad also established a fairly high personal prestige in the Tianping Army. However, after all, he can't be compared with all the spiritual idols of the Yellow Turban Army!
Think of that terrible "thunderstorm" three days ago!
Even from later generations when "atheism" was prevalent, Zhang was shocked by such a majestic miracle, and his hands and feet were numb. Compared with such a majestic miracle, the little "pointing" technique of insolence can only be regarded as "a small witch".
Therefore, if those devout Taiping Taoists encounter a need to choose, they put insolence and horns at both ends of the scale, and the end that is raised high must belong to arrogance.
The logic is clear, but the arrogance is still completely unacceptable emotionally. Think about it, as long as Zhang Jiao wants to understand, his every word and deed, every move will be completely and completely exposed to Zhang Jiao's eyes.
For a traverser who comes from the afterlife and believes in personal ** rights, this is absolutely unbearable!
Let's talk about the matter more seriously, if it is Zhang Jiao, just for example, Zhang Jiao wants to kill Zhang Madness, I am afraid that the devout people in the pro-guard team will not hesitate to stab the blade into Zhang Qiang's heart.
How sad is this?
When the arrogance came out of his tent, he had already made up his mind.
Be sure to form a personal guard that is absolutely loyal and completely obedient to oneself!
Not now, of course. In the current situation of insolence, he does not have such conditions. Because the time of the commander's subordinates is still short, only half a year, Zhang Qiang is in the army, and there is no possibility that most of the soldiers can be killed. Even if they are Dian Wei, Zang Ba, and Le Jin, who have the grace of "ignition", I am afraid that they will not be loyal to the arrogance and foolishness to that extent.
All of this has to be done slowly.
In the next two days, Zhang Qiang began to visit the Yellow Turban Army camp.
I have to say that Zhang Liang, the nominal commander of the Yellow Turban Army, is still quite capable. In terms of leading troops, not to mention that he is a talent of Han Xin, at least one of Fan Xu's talents is still there. A man with the talent of a famous general, in the end, was forced to give full play to his talents only when he rebelled, which was also a big irony for the Han court.
Although the number of the Yellow Turban Army was as high as more than 100,000, it turned the entire city of Gwangjong and a large area nearby into a huge military camp. And these recruits, who have been converted from farmers and homeless people, are certainly not easy to govern and command. However, in the vast camp, although the environment is very dirty, full of garbage, feces, etc., it does not look messy.
Every marshal of the Yellow Turban Army was given a piece of land of suitable size to set up camp according to the troops under his command. The camps are not far from each other, and there are roads connecting them. In the outermost camp, the fortifications are quite neat and scattered, giving people a sense of inviolability. Between the entire Yellow Turban Army camp and Guangzong City, there is a trend of each other's horns, no wonder even with Lu Zhi's commanding power, the Yellow Turban Army is still helpless.
After turning around twice, Zhang Qi had to admit that compared with these native-born Han people, his own military views in the era of cold weapons were indeed not on the table.
However, these things are all trivial things in the heart of the arrogance. At present, there is only one thing that Zhang Qiang is most concerned about, and that is:
- "Great Sage and Good Teacher" Zhang Jiao, what does he plan to do with his crow's mouth?
It's not that I'm worried that my life is in danger. Hao Zhang is also one of the internal members of the Julu Zhang family, in the Han Dynasty, which attaches great importance to clan and nostalgia, as long as he does not try to endanger the major interests of the family, his personal safety will not be a problem. It's just that after experiencing the identity of the superior who called for and gave orders half a year ago, Zhang Qiang was no longer willing to think about how he would live if he lost the authority he currently held.
If you use one sentence to describe it, the current psychology of arrogance is-
"If you don't eat for Jiuding, you will cook for Jiuding!" 1
- As long as I can keep these troops in my hands, even if I don't get anything, it won't be difficult for me!
Zhang Qiang thought. As for becoming Zhang Jiao's heir, he has now been left behind by insolence. No matter what the situation, you are the most reliable. Expecting others to put the benefits on themselves is probably a bit unreliable.
At this time, he also had some regrets in his heart.
-- Maybe you should stay in Taishan County and sink silently for a few years.
However, such thoughts will soon be expelled from the mind by arrogance. The so-called "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?" "Insolence is a man who is willing to gamble and lose. Even if you can't win this one, you can't regret it!
As a dignified traverser, there are countless successful cases of his predecessors in front of him, arrogant and confident, as long as he is given enough time, he will definitely be able to make a difference in this troubled world. At the very least, Zhang Qiang also felt that he could divide one side and become a soil emperor. As for whether to take refuge in the triumvirate of Cao, Liu, and Sun, so far, Zhang Qi has no such plan.
Then, a message from Wei Xiao made Zhang Mad no longer have time to think nonsense.
"General Tiangong is calling!"
Zhang was stunned.
Insolent thinking.
Insolent rejoicing.
- No problem!
- There must be something good......
As a half-immortal of Zhang Jiao's "great sage and good teacher", it is not something that any cat or dog can see. Since he knew that he was not far from death, Zhang Jiaodang would not deliberately waste his already small time. Since he wanted to meet Zhang Madness, of course he didn't want to ask Zhang Crazy for his guilt.
If you want to find trouble with insolence, you can just say a word from Zhang Jiao, why do you need to summon it?
followed Wei Xiao all the way and met Zhang Bao. Then led by Zhang Bao himself, he stepped into Zhang Jiao's residence for the second time. During the whole process, the arrogance was a little fluttering that was difficult to distinguish between the real and the false.
- Really? Phantom?
It wasn't until he looked at Zhang Jiao's sincere eyes again that Zhang Qiang really sobered up and entered his role.
"There is calm in every big event!"
This is a sentence that Zhang Mad learned from his Chinese teacher when he was in high school before the crossing. I recited it silently in my heart, bowed down arrogantly, and saw Zhang Jiao, the "great sage and good teacher".
Zhang Jiao spoke.
The tone is slow, long, but yet you can feel that there is some wonderful power hidden in it.
"I called you here today to teach you something."
Then, without waiting for the arrogant answer, Zhang Jiao began to tell on his own.
"The world regards me as an immortal. I naturally know that I am not an immortal. β
"When I was young, I was a scholar who traveled to Luoyang, hoping to be recommended by Bole and go out of the Han family to benefit the people. Although I am a shallow learner, I am fortunate to be valued by the former Taifu Chen Zhenzhongju [Chen Fan], and I am by the side, and I have many teachings. β
"It's just a pity that the Han family is mediocre, and the authority has fallen into the hands of eunuchs and traitors. These fortunate villains, once they grasp the authority, will get carried away, act recklessly, and kill the people of the world to enrich themselves. β
"Mrs. Chen saw that the eunuchs were perverse in the court and harmed the world, so he contacted the former general Dou Wu, intending to clear the monarch's side and get rid of these eunuchs who were causing trouble to the world."
Unexpectedly, Cao Jie and Wang Fu, these eunuchs and traitors, are quite accomplished in conspiracy. General Dou and Mrs. Chen didn't notice it for a while, and they fell into the net of eunuchs and traitors, and died one after another. β
"At that time, I was sent by Mrs. Chen to contact comrades [like-minded people] in other counties, and I inadvertently avoided this difficulty. However, the eunuchs and traitors have long regarded us upright scholars as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, and they will never let it go easily. β
More than 100 people, including Li Ying, Du Mi, Zhai Chao, Liu Ru, Xun Yi, Fan Fan, and Yu Fang, were all imprisoned and executed. The number of scholars arrested, killed, exiled, and imprisoned in various localities reached 6 to 700. The famous people at that time were almost swept away! β
"I was unknown at the time, but I was not spared. Although he was not imprisoned, there was no hope for his career. After this blow, I turned to the study of the book of 'Lao Huang' to soothe the qi in my heart. β
"Later, I gained a little from studying, so I opened the altar to give lectures, recruited protΓ©gΓ©s, accepted eight disciples, and established a 'Taiping'. Originally, I thought to myself that since I could not stand on the court and benefit the people, I could also hide outside the village to educate the people and have good thoughts. β
"It's a pity that the trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop. Suddenly, one year, Zhang Yuanjie [Zhang Jian], a party celebrity who had been arrested and bought by eunuchs for a long time, sneaked in from outside the plug and visited my house. β
Although Zhang Yuanjie is old, he is still strong. He persuaded Yu Wu that since Taifu Chen and General Dou did not work to plot against the eunuchs and traitors in the imperial court, it was better to use them in the opposite way. In the name of the village, gather millions of righteous people, and launch them at the same time in Kyushu in the world, and force each other from the outside, and you will be able to get rid of the eunuchs and traitors, and return the world to peace! β
As I spoke, I sent eight disciples to the states to spread the teachings. In the meantime, many remnants of the party also cooperated in many ways, so that my Taiping Road has been in Kyushu all over the world for more than ten years, with millions of believers. β
"Last year, Zhang Yuanjie came to see me in person, mentioned that the time had come, and agreed that the whole country would raise troops in the year of Jiazi to coerce the Han family to eliminate the eunuchs and traitors, and return the government to the world."
"However, in the end, it is unpredictable."
"As soon as the Yellow Turban Rebellion arose, the Han family abolished the party. As soon as the party was removed, countless party members who were originally friends with my Taiping Dao forgot their past feelings, took the opportunity to go out of the Han room, and became enemies of my Yellow Turban righteous people. The situation has developed to this day, but it has become a life-and-death battle between my Taiping Road and the world's famous and powerful! β

PS: There is a background knowledge in this section, which is the "disaster of the party". There is no direct record between the "Scourge of the Party" and the "Yellow Turban Uprising". The background of the times introduced here in this book is mostly based on the author's personal assumptions and has no historical basis. However, as long as the relevant logic makes sense, the words of the novelist can also be conclusive.
