Chapter 49: Edicts and Letters

Tang Yun returned to the city victoriously and counted the results.

This battle can be described as a great victory, defeating tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army!

This is all the Yellow Turban Army in Jinan County, and Xu He, one of the 36 square commanders, was also killed on the spot.

However, the soldiers and horses under Tang Yun's command also suffered a lot of losses, although it was a big victory, it was enough to lose more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and now he only has more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in his hands.

Fortunately, there were many prisoners, and nearly 10,000 Yellow Turban captives were captured, although there were many old and weak women and children, but there were also many young and strong people who could expand their troops.

Next, it is to clean up the battlefield, collect utensils, count the list of the dead, compensate the fallen soldiers, and so on.

Knowing that Tang Yun had defeated the tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops outside the city, the scholars and people in the city were all cheering, and when they were besieged by tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans before, they were frightened one by one.

Tang Yun defeated tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans, killed Xu He, the commander of the Yellow Turbans, and saved the lives of a city, so that his reputation in Dongpingling County has reached its peak.

Then, he sent Tang 13 and other Tang generals to lead soldiers and horses to recover the county towns in Jinan County and clear the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party scattered in Jinan County.

For a time, Tang Yun gained great prestige in Jinan County.

It was from February to March.

At this time, the edict issued by the imperial court to various places also arrived, ordering all states and counties to gather rebels and fight against the Yellow Turban bandits.

In February, Zhang Jiao gathered a crowd to rise up, and in just one month, there were seven prefectures and 28 counties across the country where there was a war, and the Yellow Turban Army was like a bamboo, the prefectures and counties were lost, and the officials fled, shaking Kyoto.

Like Tang Yun, who had prepared for it in advance, he was the only one who defeated the yellow turbans in Jinan County.

Xu He was only one of the thirty-six square commanders of the Yellow Turban Army, and the remaining thirty-five square commanders, the Yellow Turban Army under their command, all captured the city and was like a bamboo.

And Zhang Jiao's nest in Jizhou was almost completely occupied by the Yellow Turban Army.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty saw that Taiping Dao was so powerful, and it had such a scale in just one month, so he hurriedly took He Jin as the general and led his troops to guard the Beijing Division.

In addition, the Kyoto Pass of Hangu Pass, Otani, Guangcheng, Yique, Yuyuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, and Koheijin were set up to garrison the Kyoto Pass.

He also issued an edict to strictly guard all places, and ordered all states and counties to gather righteous troops to fight against the Yellow Turban bandits.

Huangfu Song asked for the lifting of the party ban, took out the palace money, and gave the good horses in the West Garden to the soldiers to improve morale, and Lu Yi said to Emperor Han Ling: "The party has accumulated for a long time, if you conspire with the Yellow Turban, you will regret it." ”

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty also understood that the calamity of the party had accumulated grievances for a long time, and if he conspired with the Yellow Turban, the Han court was afraid that it would be hopeless, so he immediately accepted the proposal and granted amnesty to the party.

On the other hand, they sent elite troops to suppress the chaos in various places:

Lu Zhi led the army to take charge of the northern front and maneuvered with Zhang Jiao's main force.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun each led an army to defeat the Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area.

Zhu Jun also recruited Sun Jian of Xiapi as the Sima of the Zuo Army, and marched together to defeat the Yellow Turban.

It was under such circumstances that Tang Yun also received an edict from the imperial court.

It is not so much that he received an edict from the imperial court, but that the county guard mansion received an edict from the imperial court, but the imperial edict was directly transferred from Liu Taishou to Tang Yun.

It is also because of this edict that all states and counties gathered the righteous army to fight against the Yellow Turban thieves, and there was the deeds of Liu Guanzhang forming a righteous alliance and convening the righteous army to jointly crusade against the Yellow Turban.

For many people in the world, although the world is in turmoil at this moment, it is a good time to conquer the yellow scarf and make contributions!

Tang Yun was not in a hurry.

He naturally understood that at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising, especially in February of last month, and in March of this month, the Yellow Turban Army was very brave.

Don't look at the Han court's active response, it is also sending troops to levy, and it is issuing edicts to gather righteous armies in various places, etc., but in the face of the brave Yellow Turban Army at this time, it is not beneficial.

It was not easy for Tang Yun to defeat Xu He, one of the thirty-six commanders of the Yellow Turban Army, but this was still the case that he was extremely brave and had the help of the thirty-six generals of the Tang family.

If you come to the two ways, Tang Yun can't handle it!

The commanders of the Yellow Turban Army are not so easy to get along with.

In March, the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty suffered a lot of losses under the Yellow Turban Army.

Tang Yun even knew that in April, Zhu Jun's army was defeated by the Yellow Turban Bocai, and Huangfu Song had to enter the Changshe defense with him, and was besieged by Bocai's army.

These are the two main forces of the Han court, but they were beaten by Bocai and their morale was low.

There are also Runan Yellow Turban Army defeated Taishou Zhao Qian in Shaoling, Guangyang Yellow Turban Army killed Youzhou Assassin Shi Guo Xun, etc., etc., the Yellow Turban Army's combat power is remarkable.

And in May, when the Jingshi saw that Huangfu Song was besieged and sent Cao Cao to lead the army to rescue, it was the time when the Han soldiers began to counterattack.

Therefore, Tang Yun was not in a hurry, it was only the beginning of March.

After the two months of March and April, and in May, it was a good time for his "righteous army" to conquer the Yellow Turbans and make contributions.

In these two months, it was in Jinan County that troops were recruited, troops were trained, farming was resumed, and strength was accumulated.

At the same time, Tang Yun also received a letter from his father Tang Zhou, which was almost in line with the imperial court's edict.

Seeing this letter, he finally understood why his father Tang Zhou betrayed Taiping Taoism and took refuge in the Han court.

It turned out that his father Tang Zhou and the general He Jin had known each other for a long time, and they were a pair of good friends with an excellent relationship!
