Chapter 28: Internal Dumping
After leaving Mount Tai for nearly a month, Qi Taibao finally embarked on the journey back to the arms of the Yellow Turban Army, for Wu Man, the Holy Son's travel is a matter of the topic, and the Holy Son who grew up in the cage is impossible to shoulder the heavy responsibility of Wu Man's re-rise; And letting the Holy Son return to Mount Tai and experience the test of life and death is exactly what Wu Man wants to see, so Wu Man has established a teleportation array to prevent the Holy Son from hanging up after a long journey.
100 physically strong brute soldiers, holding long-handled giant axes, wearing half-body leather armor and carrying cowhide shields, lined up in a neat queue to follow Qi Taibao and enter the teleportation array; The Wuman high-level said that as long as the Holy Son had his own main city, they would continue to supply barbarian soldiers, and the Holy Son said that the pressure was great.
Qi Taibao is now a ninth-level general, with 30 enhancements in the sea of qi and 10 additional strength, a total of 85 grid skills, and the ninth-level generals can get 10 commanders at each level, and after being promoted to level nine, they can get a total of 100 commanders, and the thirty-six-rank military attache can get 50 commanders, so he has 150 commanders and can command 150 soldiers.
But the 100 barbarians do not occupy his command, the reason is that the "barbarian conscription order", this token is a treasure, increasing the command by 100, but can only lead the barbarians, non-barbarians cannot use this token.
The eighth-level jade cultivator sent by the Yellow Turban Taiping Dao, the Yellow Turban Master Xiao Yi, is now staying in the military camp of Beifu in Qingzhou, Taishan, compared to Wu Man's attention to Qi Taibao, the Yellow Turban Taiping Dao is much inferior, mainly because the development goals of the two religions are different; Wu Man didn't have the intention of ruling the twelve states of the Han realm, and just wanted to restore the theocratic throne of Luoyang Mountain, so he had his own set of choices for the Holy Son.
The Yellow Turban Taiping Dao is a military religious group that will never put its eggs in one basket, therefore, the Yellow Turban Taiping Dao can have sixteen holy sons and sixteen holy daughters, let these holy sons and holy daughters compete, until the last moment, no one knows which holy son or holy woman will become the next generation of heavenly sages and saints.
There is never a monolithic interior, and the same is true of the Yellow Turban Taiping Road, even if he is beaten into a dog and hides in the deep mountains and old forests, the internal rolling of the Yellow Turban Taiping Road has never stopped; The Yellow Turban Army had a total of 16 corps in three military regions, with the Yizhou Theater under the command of Zhang Bao, the Yanzhou Theater under the command of Zhang Jiao, and the Qingzhou Theater under the command of Zhang Liang.
The Yizhou theater was completely lost, Zhang Bao led the remnants of the army to retreat to the seaside, and the Jinfan Army sent a large number of warships to meet and take it to Qingzhou, and then, hundreds of thousands of Yizhou yellow turbans retreated to Mount Tai and became monkeys in the mountains with Qingzhou yellow turbans; The Yanzhou Yellow Turban was also defeated and retreated to Mangdang Mountain and Jiuli Mountain in Yanzhou.
Yanzhou has Zhang Jiao to preside over the overall situation, the interior is quite stable, but Mount Tai is a hodgepodge, Yizhou Yellow Turban and Qingzhou Yellow Turban are staggered, because Zhang Liang is nowhere to be found, Qingzhou Yellow Turban group of dragons has no leader; Zhang Bao, the commander of the Yellow Turbans in Yizhou, proposed that the two theaters be merged into one, but was opposed by the six Yellow Turban commanders in Qingzhou, and Zhang Bao was furious and cut off the supply of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou.
It is precisely because of this that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban did not hesitate to consume a lot of savings, set up a large teleportation array, and buy food everywhere.
In order to fight for the independence of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, Han Xian, Bian Xi, Bocai, Zhang Baiqi, Yan Zheng, and He Yi, the six major commanders of Qingzhou, held an internal meeting to elect Han Xian as the marshal of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and then reported to Zhang Jiao, the supreme head of the Yellow Turban; In order to increase the certainty, contacting the monks of Taiping Dao is the main means, Zhang Jiao is not a qualified military leader, but a qualified god stick leader, so Taiping Dao has a very high status in the Yellow Turban Army.
Similarly, in order to annex the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, Zhang Bao, the commander of the Yizhou Yellow Turbans, also constantly contacted the Taiping Taoist monks in Mangdang Mountain to cut off the independence of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.
In this background/scene, the Yellow Turban Qi Taibao of Qingzhou Beifu planted the flag in Yizhou Emei Mountain with weak military strength, which greatly inspired the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Group of Mount Tai, and there was also a Taiping Taoist monk Xiao Yiyi, who was friendly with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and rushed to Yizhou to rescue Qi Taibao.
Even if the NPC is as cunning as a fox, in front of Qi Taibao, who can sense their thoughts and emotions, there is no secret at all, therefore, Qi Taibao returned to the Yellow Turban Camp in Beifu, Qingzhou, Taishan, and after meeting Xiao Yiyi, he knew about the transaction between the Yellow Turban Group and the Wuman Group; However, these transactions are not good for Qi Taibao, but they are also not harmful, and they are completely a strategic agreement set by the two groups for future development.
Obtaining the quota of the sixteen holy sons is completely indifferent to Qi Taibao, because this is only a nomination, whether he can become a Yellow Turban Holy Son or not, he still needs to form a task; The appearance of the task is not something that Qi Taibao can get by knowing the other party's thoughts and plans, in many cases, he needs to meet the conditions before he can trigger the task.
Just like now, the nomination of the Yellow Turban Holy Son appeared, but there was no task, which means that Qi Taibao is still a certain distance away from becoming the Yellow Turban Holy Son, and a Wuman Holy Son has to shoulder a difficult task, and Qi Taibao has no interest in becoming the Yellow Turban Holy Son at all.
But he has this nomination, even if he officially enters the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Group, when the six major commanders hold a secret meeting, he has the qualifications to observe, the entire Qingzhou Yellow Turban has 150,000 soldiers, of which the Yellow Turban players are as high as 50,000 (Yellow Turban soldiers), but the Yellow Turban generals are only 100 players, and the number of these 100 Yellow Turban players is as high as more than 10,000.
The limited number of soldiers also makes it more and more difficult for players who join the Yellow Turban Army to obtain official positions, and no official position means that they cannot obtain soldiers, even if the player himself has the command, he can only exist as an individual Yellow Turban soldier, unless they have adventures like Qi Taibao and obtain troops from the wild.
This also forced many players who were excited to enlist in the army, after a few battles, to give up their status as generals in frustration and switch to the sect, not because they were unwilling to become generals, but because the troops were too difficult to obtain, so the sooner the players joined the army, the more they took advantage of it.
Aside from the more than 50,000 Yellow Turban players, the total number of Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou is only 100,000, of which the number of regular soldiers is only 30,000, the number of combat soldiers is only 10,000, and the rest are reserve soldiers or servant soldiers; The supply of 10,000 soldiers is a huge burden, not to mention 30,000 regular soldiers.
Therefore, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans that were cut off from supplies were in an extremely difficult situation, in order to obtain supplies, during the period when Qi Taibao left, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans continued to attack and open the blockade line of Yan, Wu, and Wei; The frequent attacks caused heavy casualties to the Yellow Turban players, and also caused great losses to the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Soldiers, but the six major commanders of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans did not have the slightest solution.
All hope is in Yanzhou Mangdang Mountain, as long as Zhang Jiao canonizes Han Xian as the marshal of the Yellow Turban in the Qingzhou Theater, Zhang Bao's supply blockade will be self-defeating, and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban also ushered in a chance to relieve his breath, but to the disappointment of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, there has been no news from Mangdangshan for a long time.
If you don't enter the core, you can't know the inside story, Qi Taibao never thinks about anything like supplies and logistics when he doesn't become a reserve saint, as long as players have Han money, they don't need to worry about this; But the Han money did not fall from the sky, the Han money was sent by the boss, so where did the boss's Han money and all kinds of war materials come from?
Qi Taibao, who participated in the military conference of Qu Shuai for the first time, got the answer.
In the twelve states of the Han Dynasty, there were not only military groups and monk sects, but also countless squires, families, and gate lords, of course, more of those people who had no autonomy; The Yellow Turban Rebellion lasted for some time, and the Yellow Turbans lost all of their main cities, and in the eyes of the players, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was doomed.
But this is not the case in the eyes of the family gate lords, who are extremely fond of political gambling, and they are under the rule of the six tribes of Wei, Wu, Shu, Yan, and Liangyue, and on the other hand, they send envoys everywhere to contact the six thieves such as the Yellow Turban; The family gate valve can open up various joints and transport supplies to the Yellow Turban, and the Yellow Turban did not commit any crime against the family gate valve Qiu during the reign of Yizhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou, but it also collected a lot of property, and both sides had their own needs, resulting in a situation of blockade on this side and transaction on that side.
Yizhou returned to Yan, Yangzhou returned to Wu, Yanzhou returned to Wei, so, what about Qingzhou?
Qingzhou did not have a definite ownership, so that Yan Wu Wei's encirclement and suppression of the Yellow Turban weakened, and the three departments governed the state capital occupied by them on the one hand, and competed for the territory of Qingzhou on the other; In such a situation, the existence of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is extremely necessary, because once the Yellow Turban is destroyed, the Han Court Center of Luoyang Mountain will intervene, and at that time, no one will be able to grab the territory again.
"Hey, Emperor Ling of Han died too suddenly, the Yellow Turban Uprising was also very sudden, the nobles of Luoyang Mountain were not ready, the six kings must have been loyal to the Han at the beginning, and sent elite soldiers to the Han Realm, and our Yellow Turbans were defeated and retreated, and after we retreated into Mount Tai, these kings found that the twelve states of the Han Realm were no longer the situation of the Ling Emperor era, at this time, they thought about slowing down the attack and giving orders to those generals in the Nether Realm to occupy the territory they had laid." Donglai Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Zhang Baiqi said with a smile.
Qi Taibao looked at him very strangely, not knowing what to be happy about, "Could it be that these guys already knew that the Yellow Turban Uprising would fail?" Damn, there's a shady scene! ”
"Hmph." Le'an Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Bocai suddenly let out a cold snort.
Zhang Baiqi's face changed, and he slapped the table and shouted, "Fat man, you hum a bird." ”
"Zhang Baigua, you signed the secret proposal of Luoyang Mountain, saying that Qingzhou will belong to me and wait for the yellow scarf, but what is the situation now?" Bocai also got up angrily and shouted.
Qi Taibao frowned, "Nima, there is really a shady scene." ”
"Why don't you say that there was a covenant of the gods before the Luoyang secret discussion, but the three heavenly sages went to the teacher."
"What nonsense are you talking about."
Han Xian suddenly interrupted the quarrel between the two, the two seemed to know that they were talking too much, so they quickly shut up, Han Xian turned his head and glared at Qi Taibao, who was listening carefully to the shady scene, Qi Taibao grinned, Han Xian shook his head, and said to all the Qu Shuai: "The matter of Luoyang Mountain is in the past, and the problem we are facing now is to continue to stay in Mount Tai or fight out." ”
