Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Battle of the Yellow Turban, the Imperial Court Moves

However, it is said that at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, because the imperial court was unable to levy, so it ordered all localities to recruit soldiers alone, and the clans of various places took the opportunity to expand their power, forcibly occupy territory, and gradually embarked on the road of separating the territory!

Jizhou, Julu, due to the hasty uprising, the preparations have not been completely done, because of this, Zhang Jiao worked hard to make the uprising launch in advance, but it is much older than the last time.

Zhang Jiao's voice came from the room, although he was still full of energy, but he couldn't hide his tiredness: "It's ...... someone to come."

A subordinate pushed the door in: "General......"

"Pass my order, order Zhang Mancheng to enter Nanyang, Zhao Hong and Han Zhong to enter Wancheng, Zhang Niujiao to enter Changshan, Chu Feiyan to enter Shangdang, Bocai and Peng to enter Yingchuan and Runan, and Bu Jibing to enter Dongjun, all departments echo each other and gather under Luoyang City."

"No!"

So Zhang Jiao introduced his two brothers, and sent the soldiers to Guangzong, along the way, the people all went out to welcome, or enlisted as believers, or sent food and clothing, the righteous army soon grew stronger, Zhang Jiao ordered to burn down the government, kill the corrupt officials, and scatter their property among the people.

On one side, the people gathered support, and on the other side, like a lost dog, fled in panic, almost encountered little resistance, and Zhang Jiao went all the way to Guangzong.

In Guangzong City, Zhang Jiao sat on the main seat, satisfied, looking at his generals, he couldn't help but feel ambition Peng Sheng: "Zhugong, now the Han Dynasty army is vulnerable, it is the day when we will fight bravely to kill the enemy, I hope that Zhugong will take Luoyang in one go, and the king will be just around the corner!" ”

The generals under the rank were enthusiastic when they heard this, and they responded loudly: "No" The generals of the Yellow Turban are all reckless people, how can they withstand such temptations

Later, Zhang Jiao ordered his brother Zhang Bao to lead troops to capture Quyang, and Guangzong became horns for each other. In Guangzong and Quyang, not only did the government suffer a fatal blow, but the Yellow Turban Army also used the family property as military capital.

However, it was said that the Yellow Turban General ordered the Yellow Turban to go everywhere, and dozens of large and small leaders began to lead the Yellow Turban soldiers to attack all over the country, first the Hebei Yellow Turban Army captured Liu Xu, the king of Anping, and Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, and then attacked and killed Guo Xun and Liu Wei, the assassin of Youzhou, in Guangyang (Jixian County, southwest of present-day Beijing).

Zhang Mancheng led the Yellow Turban Army of Nanyang (Junzhi Wan, now Nanyang City, Henan) to kill Taishou Chu Gong and besiege Wancheng.

Bocai crisscrossed Sizhou, and the soldiers pointed to Yingchuan, and Peng Tuo led the Yellow Turban Army to defeat Zhao Qian in Zhaoling (now northeast of Luohe City, Henan) in Runan (Junzhi Pingyu, now Pingyu North, Henan).

For a time, in the vast land of Jizhou, Sizhou, southern Youzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and northern Yuzhou of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Army defeated the imperial army, and the momentum was in the limelight for a while.

With the passage of the Yellow Turban Uprising, all kinds of materials prepared in advance were gradually consumed, and the Yellow Turban soldiers did not produce, so the people in various states and counties were sold, and they robbed grain, women, and even strong men. Everywhere the yellow scarf passed, a scorched earth.

At this point, the Yellow Turban forces, Zhang Jiao from Guangzong to the west, Bocai and Peng Tuo to the Yingchuan area, Zhang Mancheng from Nanyang to the north, formally formed an encirclement of Luoyang in three places, and Zhang Jiao's strategy set in the early stage was basically completed.

However, it was said that the situation of the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising in various places continued to gather in Beijing, and Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others could no longer suppress it, and Emperor Ling was shocked when he heard the defeat reports from all over the country.

Jingshi, in the court, Emperor Ling sat on the dragon throne, yawning constantly, and his face was as pale as snow. Looking at the princes and ministers kneeling in the court, Emperor Ling looked bored, waved his hand and said, "What is the plan of the Qings, can you be a Yellow Turban thief?" ”

Everyone, I look at you, you look at me, no one stepped forward, the yellow scarf is powerful, and it has already crushed the confidence in everyone's hearts.

Emperor Ling saw that no one came out to answer, and was about to get angry, but he saw the general He Jin stepping out: "Your Majesty, now that the imperial court army is too small, it is no longer enough to send troops to various places to support, so I hope that Your Majesty will issue an edict quickly, and the other prefectures and counties will recruit troops on their own to pacify the Yellow Turban thieves." ”

When the ministers saw the general's proposal, they all echoed and agreed: "Your Majesty, what the general said is very true, Your Majesty is Shengming, and please send down your Majesty's will!" ”

When Emperor Ling saw that someone had an idea, he didn't think about it, and replied directly: "Okay! All right! I ordered to recruit troops on their own in various places, and quickly pacified the chaos. ”

Situ Yuan Kui stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, the yellow scarves in various places have a countermeasure, but now the thieves in Zhang Jiao are divided into three armies, looking forward to my Beijing division, and I also ask Your Majesty to issue an order to send a general to resist." ”

Emperor Ling saw Yuan Kui [wei] kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, and had some pity in his heart, so he said, "Old Situ, hurry up, huh...... Since Lao Situ proposed this matter, he must have a candidate in his heart, I don't know who Lao Situ chose? ”

Yuan Kui got up from the ground and said calmly: "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the two generals Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song must put down this chaos!" ”

At this time, the general He Jin also stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Situ said is very true, but the Yellow Turban thieves are divided into three ways, and they are recommended by the ministers to advise the doctor Zhu Jun, this person is very talented, and he should be able to share the worries of His Majesty." ”

"Good! Good! Good! Emperor Ling stood up and shouted loudly: "There are ministers who are worried about me, why don't you worry about the yellow scarf!" Someone! Fabricated! ”

There have long been people who have written the holy decree kneeling in front of the table, holding a pen and concentrating, waiting for the decree of the Emperor Ling.

"Qianshangshu Lu Zhi was appointed as the general of Beizhonglang, and the emperor Fu Song of the northern region was appointed as the general of Zuozhonglang, and Zhu Jun, the doctor of the Qianzhi, was appointed as the general of the right Zhonglang, and each of the three led an army of 30,000 and went to Guangzong, Yingchuan, and Nanyang to pay the Yellow Turban."

"My emperor, long live, long live, long live!" The ministers in the audience shouted loudly.

When Emperor Ling saw it, his heart was full of pride, and he only felt that he waved his finger and pointed at the country, and he was full of spirit. "Since there is nothing to do, let's disperse and retreat!" So he ignored the courtiers under the stage, left on his own, and went back to the palace to find a girl for a carnival.

After the early dynasty was dispersed, all the ministers gathered around He Jin and Yuan Kui, and the sycophants were patted, and He Jin was suddenly triumphant, as if he had won the battle, and he only felt that there was light on his face. Yuan Kui still looked calm, and he couldn't see any excitement, but praised He Jin, and there was harmony in the court for a while.

"Humph......"

A snort came from the side, and everyone looked at it, and Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and several others stood next to them, glaring angrily.

The ministers suddenly felt as if they had eaten flies, and they were no longer as good as before, and they talked and laughed, and the bold ones snorted one after another, and they dispersed, and the timid ones did not say much, and they also gave up their hands. For a moment, the court was suddenly empty.

"Gong Zhang, they are too arrogant, they don't take us in their eyes at all!" A middle-aged man among them spoke, his voice sharp and harsh.
