Chapter 168: Qingxu Yellow Turban
With Guan Jing's "heartfelt help", Zhao Yun entered the White Horse Yicong and inadvertently reached Ji Ping's original idea.
Zhao Yun's entry into the White Horse Yicong can be described as a steady progress, because the White Horse Yicong is completely different from other armies, and it is the core of the core under Gongsun Zhan.
In history, there is no record of Zhao Yun's entry into the White Horse Yicong, and many people in later generations are also puzzled by Gongsun Zhan's non-reuse of Zhao Yun, in fact, Ji Ping knew the reason from the time he joined Gongsun Zhan's army, Gongsun Chan started too early, his forces have been basically formed, and the command and combat effectiveness are not bad, Zhao Yun is a nameless boy from the end of the micro after all, in the army, it is naturally not so easy to get Gongsun Chan to reuse, and even Gongsun Chan may not have paid attention to Zhao Yun for a long time.
At that time, Liu Bei's subordinates only had more than 1,000 people and horses, so he naturally attached more importance to Zhao Yun, this is the difference between pouring a glass of water into the sea and pouring it into a bowl, the difference between icing on the cake and sending charcoal in the snow.
The next day, Zhao Yun and Yan Gang cavalry competition according to the agreement, first mounted shooting, Zhao Yun and Yan Gang are on par, followed by cavalry battle, Yan Gang is bloody battle, marksmanship is fierce, full of murderous spirit, Zhao Yun's marksmanship is not leaky, on the battlefield lethality, Zhao Yun lacks experience after all, may be worse, but the spear skills and strength are far above Yan Gang, although he tried his best to hide clumsy, but still defeated Yan Gang after a hundred rounds.
This in the Youzhou army, especially Bai Ma Yi caused a great repercussions, the soldiers are the heaviest force, after this battle, Zhao Yun established a prestige in the Youzhou army.
Gongsun Zhan also admired Zhao Yun's bravery, and promoted him from a military marquis to a military commander, and he was considered a middle-level general in Baimayi. And Zhao Yun's original men and horses were directly under the command of another army under Tian Kai. and Xiahoulan also returned to the past.
Ji Ping's military position was also promoted by the military marquis to the military commander, and there was Lu Mao's factor. But it is not excluded that it is a warning from Gongsun Chan to Yan Gang's domineering behavior.
In the following days, more and more Qingxu Yellow Turbans poured into Bohai County, and Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses also took full action, spreading across the counties, opening a big net and forcing Qingzhou in the south.
Zhao Yun entered the White Horse Yicong, and naturally separated from Ji Ping, Zhao Yun was quite reluctant, and asked Ji Ping to take care of Xiahou Lan and the children he brought from Changshan. Ji Ping agreed.
Gongsun Zhan's generals are distributed, Tian Kai is in charge of the eastern counties of Bohai County, and Ji Ping is naturally in this area.
Since Yuan Shao's evacuation, the Yellow Turbans, pirates, bandits, and local armed forces in this area are raging, and the destruction is very strict, and in less than a month, Ji Ping and Zhang He encountered two Yellow Turban Army, three waves of bandits, and two landlord armies. The scale is not large, and the bandits and local armed forces in it are easy to say, but the combat effectiveness of the two Yellow Turban Army is extremely strong.
Both battles with the Yellow Turbans were hard-fought battles. Even though Zhang He was good at arranging troops, he also suffered great losses, and these Yellow Turban soldiers were extremely fierce, or crazy. Desperately do not surrender a single soldier.
Ji Ping also really got to know Qingxu Yellow Turban. After the failure of the Yellow Turban in the first year of Zhongping, the rest of the Yellow Turban was divided and has reached the present day. The three largest strands are Black Mountain, White Wave and Qingxu Yellow Turban.
Really, it is compared with Montenegro and Baibo. Only the Qingxu Yellow Turban is the inheritance of the original Yellow Turban, and it is also a Yellow Turban that has always respected Taiping Dao. In essence, it was an uprising of a religious nature.
Qingxu Yellow Turban followed the Taiping Taoist teachings of the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, and enshrined the gods Huang Lao, that is, the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu, believing that the world at the time of the Yellow Emperor was a peaceful world, the most beautiful world, without exploitation and oppression, without hunger, cold, disease, and theft, and everyone was free and happy.
In addition to the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu, Qingxu Yellow Turban also respects Zhonghuang Taiyi, Taiyi, also known as Taiyi, is the highest emperor of Taoism in the Qin and Han dynasties, located in the middle of the palace purple microstar, Taiping Dao in Taiyi before the crown of the word Huang, is the most basic five virtues of the end of the beginning of the compatible, the Eastern Han Dynasty Guangwu Emperor to the red Fu called the emperor, to the fire virtue of self-proclaimed, the five elements of the birth of the earth is said to be the fire can give birth to the earth, the five elements of the earth in the center, the color is still yellow, yellow is the color of good luck.
Taiping Dao to "soil" as auspicious, belief in Huang Taiyi, advocating yellow, on behalf of the main movement of the soil of the Taiping Road will replace the main movement of the fire of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the establishment of the Yellow Sky Taiping Society, is to Zhang Jiao called himself Huang Tian, head wrapped in a yellow scarf, put forward the slogan of "the sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand".
Ji Ping has the most headache dealing with religion, and religion has also been the most difficult, sensitive, and repetitive issue to deal with since ancient times.
Qingxu Yellow Turban believes in Huang Lao and Zhong Huang Taiyi, and believes in water healing and charms, and the people involved have fallen into a state of obsession. Taking Fu Shui as an example, they firmly believe that Fu Shui Ling is the spirit of Huang Tian, and Fu Shui is not spiritual, because they are not sincere, and even sacrifice their children and family wealth.
These Yellow Turban soldiers fought desperately to the death, and unlike the Yellow Turbans in the first year of Zhongping, now the belief of Qingxu Yellow Turbans is more profound, more obsessive, and their combat effectiveness is stronger.
The two yellow turbans that Ji Ping encountered, those yellow turban soldiers were all chanting "spells", and their weapons included wooden sticks, hoes, iron forks, spears and spears, and they were desperately pounced.
Zhang He has experience in dealing with the Yellow Turban, but many of his soldiers are the first time to see such a crazy enemy, and their morale has fallen behind, so they are very convinced of the battle.
As for the other troops under Gongsun Zhan, except for the cavalry, which can completely dominate, the infantry is quite a loss.
After these two small battles, when he thought that Qingxu still had 300,000 yellow scarves, Ji Ping's scalp was a little numb, and the religious Cheng of Qingxu Yellow Turbans was beyond his prediction.
He vaguely remembered that in history, Cao Cao incorporated the Qingxu Yellow Turban and formed the Qingzhou Soldiers, which seemed to be because of religion, on the one hand, the Qingxu drought at that time, the Yellow Turban lacked food, and there was no way to live, on the other hand, Cao Cao destroyed the altar when he was in Jinan, and what he did was consistent with the "Zhonghuang Taiyi Road", because the Yellow Turban Army only respected the emperor and Lao Tzu, and did not worship his gods, and the other gods and ghosts were forbidden to destroy.
When in the following more than 20 years, the Qingzhou soldiers under Cao Cao Cao is a highly independent army, or Cao Cao is only recognized by them as a spiritual leader, but the actual control is not strong, the Qingzhou soldiers give Cao Cao more of a "potential", and in fact, whether it is the battle of Guandu or the battle of Chibi, the Qingzhou soldiers did not serve as the main force, and even fought with Lu Bu, the Qingzhou soldiers broke up first, and when they fought with Zhang Xiu, the Qingzhou soldiers wantonly plundered and were condemned by the ban.
But Cao Cao did not dare to be too disciplined in the religious army of Qingzhou soldiers, and was more laissez-faire, which was completely different from other troops under Cao Cao's command, which was not in line with Cao Cao's overlord's character, according to Ji Ping's guess, it is estimated that Cao Cao would not dare to poke this religious hornet's nest.
After Cao Cao's death, the Qingzhou soldiers dispersed.
Cao Cao is still like this, Ji Ping doesn't think that as soon as his domineering spirit is released, Qingxu Yellow Turban will obediently surrender, as for the identity of the Son of Heaven, it is even more useless, but once his true identity is exposed, it may be more difficult to deal with this Yellow Turban, because the Yellow Turban is originally the "sky" of the anti-Han Dynasty, and the belief is in the Yellow Sky.
The power of faith is the most terrible force, and if it is not used well, it is a catastrophe.
It is difficult to subdue, and if he really wants to exterminate all 300,000 yellow scarves, it is even more difficult, and he can't do it. (To be continued......)
