Chapter 13: Rebellion
The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious. ”
Zhang Han's clear voice was indescribably incongruous in the deathly silence of the lobby. Tanshi Huai died two years ago, and the inherited Helian did not have the ability and prestige of Tanshi Huai, and Xianbei was divided again. Zhang Jiaotong, the Yellow Turban, led a group of followers to rebel, and no matter how amazing the momentum was, Zhang Han, who was confident, would not take it seriously -- the cult rebellion has never been successful in the past and present. Looking around at everyone in the hall, some were pale, some were pale, some were worried, and some frowned, Zhang Han chuckled:
"You are loyal, worried about the country and the people, Zhang saw it today...... Jinan Tang Zhou is a disciple of Zhang Jiao, Tang Zhou is the first to change, this is Tianzuo my big man!
The Yellow Turban Incident was huge, but it was a rabble, Yang had already taken precautions, and it would be fine. The snake can't be without a head, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is headed by Tang Zhou, and Tang Zhou is the first, and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is not a concern. ”
At the moment when the country is in danger, Zhang Han wants to calm people's hearts, and it is not easy to say it directly, and the officials can't help but be stunned when they hear it, but seeing him seriously, it doesn't look like a joke on them, and the implication is that Qingzhou is as stable as Mount Tai. The officials immediately looked much better. However, many people are still worried, not knowing whether they are worried about the community or worried about their families in other places.
"However, in times of national crisis, you must be careful to observe your duties and wait for the edict.
Wu Zifang! ”
"In!"
Wu Zifang got up and responded with his fists clenched.
"Ordering you to prepare your arms, how are you ready?"
"There are a total of 2,117 soldiers in Qingzhou, including 200 cavalry, who can fight at any time."
"Good! Lord Han. ”
"In! There is an edict, Lord Zhang doesn't have to be polite! Qi Minister Han Wenbin stood up and saluted.
"Okay, Zhang heard that there are 300 cavalry in the county soldiers, but is there such a thing?"
"Yes, that's exactly what happened."
"Okay, order you to hand over the cavalry to Wu Zifang's command within two days!"
"......, yes!" Han Wenbin hesitated for a moment before responding.
"Lord Han, what's the difficulty?" In times of crisis, we should be united. Zhang Han was afraid that he would not say anything about it, and when the time came, it would delay things.
"I don't know if the transfer of cavalry is a temporary thing, or if it is ......"
"After the war, the cavalry will be handed over to the county soldiers again." When Zhang Han heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, but he still comforted him gently.
"Yes, it will be handed over immediately."
"Okay, Wu Zifang, you and Lord Han will handle this matter first...... Xu Ling! ”
"In!"
"Have you prepared any money and food in the treasury?"
"According to the orders of the adults, 50,000 stone chestnut rice has been prepared, and it can be transferred out at any time!"
"Good! Mr. Hua ......"
"The old decay is here."
"Today, everyone in Niushan Medical Park will be recruited, prepare medicines, and be ready to treat the wounded at any time! Please please bother sir! ”
"Yes! The old man will do his best. ”
"Zhang Jian!"
"In!"
"What's the problem with the homeless people?"
"Lord Bing, the food and clothing in the homeless people are still sufficient, and the people are only slightly uneasy, and there is no change."
"Good! Ordered you to pay attention at all times, be sure to ensure that the displaced people do not go out of chaos, each tuntun chief must be strictly investigated, there are unknown origins, rumors to confuse the public, demagoguery, beheading! ”
"Yes!"
"Xi Zhicai, Sun He, Wang Ye, Han Zhang, Wang An, Xu Feng!"
"In!" The six ministries and counties got up together and answered.
"How is the matter of arresting the Yellow Turban criminals according to the list?"
In Sparrow's short-term key work goals, Taiping Road is ranked very high. At the beginning of the year, Zhang Yin analyzed the information of the sparrows and issued an alarm that "Zhang Jiao wants to rebel". Zhang Han is convinced of this. Immediately, the sparrows in Hebei and Henan prefectures evacuated the local area under appropriate pretexts. And Tang Zhou came out to tell the first thing, and Yang Zhangchao immediately sensitively realized that this was a good opportunity. immediately dredged Zhang Rang, and took out the roster of Qingzhou Yellow Turban backbone elements from Tang Zhou's mouth. When the roster was transmitted to Qingzhou along with the edict, Zhang Han was overjoyed, and immediately added some parts according to the information of the sparrow, and ordered the whole state to be arrested, claiming that there were harborers sitting together.
The six of them had a tacit understanding, glanced at each other, and Xi Zhicai spoke first, "When Qi Guoxiang received the order, he acted vigorously and quickly arrested a large number of backbone Yellow Turban elements...... So far, the vast majority of yellow turbans have been captured, except for a few who have been informed of the exodus.
However, the number of yellow turban backbones recently captured has more than doubled the number of rosters......"
The six ministries and counties are engaged in one by one, and the situation is similar. Zhang Han frowned, this order went down to the ground with thousands of heads, and it was inevitable that there would be mud and sand, and there would definitely be many resentful ghosts. However, the current stability is more important, and Zhang Han can't care about that much.
"Whoever is in the roster, cut it down!" If the evidence is conclusive, cut it immediately! If they are uncertain, they should also be strictly guarded.
The backbone of the yellow turban that has not been captured is all painted with pictures and rewards. Those who report are exempted from punishment and rewarded, and those who harbor are guilty of the same crime!
Also, don't get into trouble with me. Those who dare to take advantage of the fire to rob, arrest people indiscriminately, and declare personal vendetta will ...... Severe punishment is not slackened! ”
"Yes!" Xi Zhicai was a little disappointed, and he did not slack off with a vague meaning of severe punishment, obviously suspected of releasing water. But Zhang Han needed the surname of the Wang clan to stabilize the people's hearts, so he had to relax a little.
Zhang Han also ordered the counties to gather the young and strong,
Practice just in case. However, the Qingzhou shape east of the big river (that is, the Yellow River) requires the repair of the city and equipment, and the recruitment of young and strong, but it must not affect the cultivation, which also limits the number of young and strong in disguise, and requires all localities to hold on to the city, and orders to concentrate the cavalry of each county, once it is found that there is a change, all places will exterminate themselves. Only the rich land of Pingyuan County is in Hexi, as soon as Qinghe Kingdom falls into the hands of the Yellow Turbans, Pingyuan County and Guoxian directly face the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Han ordered Pingyuan Taishou to do his best to gather young people, defend with all his might, and wait for reinforcements. At the same time, all boats were kept on the east bank of the great river in case of accidents.
The total strength of the Qingzhou Standing Army is about 28,000, scattered in six counties and sixty-five counties, and it is good to be able to keep itself, but it does not have the ability to take the initiative to attack.
There are 10,000 people, and there is no boundary. What's more, the 'army' commanded by Zhang Jiao has exceeded 100,000. Standing on the car, Zhang Jiao looked into the distance, everywhere was densely packed with soldiers with yellow scarves wrapped in their heads, the guards in the vicinity were fully armed, and the yellow scarves in the distance were holding hoes and wooden sticks from time to time, but this did not affect Zhang Jiao's good mood at all.
Zhang Jiao never dreamed that he would be where he is today, he was also a scholar. Later, by chance, Zhang Jiao obtained three volumes of "Taiping Qing Lingshu", which changed his life. "Taiping Qing Lingshu" is a book by Yu Ji and Gong Chong, with a total of 170 volumes, although it is also derived from the study of Huang Lao, it contains a lot of witchcraft and other messy things.
During the Jianning period 8~172), Zhang Jiao led his two younger brothers and began to preach in his hometown Lu. At that time, the disaster in Yizhou was very serious, and the dying people desperately tried to grasp the last straw, and Zhang Jiao's preaching went smoothly.
In the Guanghe period, Zhang Jiao's followers were all over the Han Kingdom, and he no longer knew how many believers there were, let alone hundreds of thousands! In order to facilitate management, Zhang Jiao organized the more devout believers into 36 parties according to the region, with more than 10,000 people in the large party and 6 or 7,000 people in the small party, and each party set up a Qu Shuai, just like a general.
As countless people knelt in front of him, Zhang Jiao became more and more confident, and gradually, even he believed that he was here to save the world, and he was supreme. When did the idea of the emperor first appear, Zhang Jiao can't remember, but he is supreme, shouldn't he be the emperor?
There is only one answer, Zhang Jiao has no doubt about it!
At the end of the sixth year of Guanghe (183), Zhang Jiao falsely said that "the sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious". On the gate of Yangcheng Temple and the door of the state and county government offices, large characters are written on white clay - "Jiazi". Everything is going well, Zhang Jiao is sure that as soon as March 5 next year arrives, Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, ? , Yu Bazhou and Yang at the same time, the way of the world is about to change, he is the real sky
However, Tang Zhou's betrayal cast a shadow over the bright future. Ma Yuanyi was killed by a car split, and more than 1,000 followers of Yang were also executed, and the Yang uprising failed. The emperor seemed to be distant, far out of reach, but in front of the boundless 'army', Zhang Jiao regained his confidence - 'Let me take the world myself!' ’。
Zhang Jiao's confidence is not without reason. Zhang Jiao gave an order, and in February of the first year of Zhongping (184), 36 parties rose up at the same time. Of the one hundred and five counties of the Great Han Kingdom, more than 20 immediately fell into war. Among them, the Hebei Yellow Turban Army commanded by Zhang Jiao also captured alive Liu Xu, the king of Anping, and Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling.
Zhang Jiao's dream of being an emperor is in the ascendant, but his joy is based on the pain of Emperor Ling. Emperor Ling is only one year older than Zhang Han, only 28 years old this year, but his skin is not shiny, his face is pale, and he looks much older than Zhang Han. It is said that Emperor Ling is also an old athlete and has a lot of experience - since he succeeded to the throne, Xianbei has been in Koubian every year, and domestic rebellions have also occurred from time to time, more than a dozen cases have occurred in more than ten years, on average, almost one every year. However, this rebellion, which almost happened at the doorstep, still frightened the Spirit Emperor.
He Jin saw an opportunity from Emperor Ling's fear, when he was Henan Yin, He Jin's eyes were already fixed on the official position with the highest status and the greatest real power in the Han Kingdom-the general. However, if He Jin wants to be a general, he needs to get the support of the ten permanent servants. Emperor Ling has always liked to use eunuchs, and at this time he trusted the ten permanent servants, and he often said to people, "Zhang Changshou is my father, and Zhao Changshou is my mother." So, He Jin bribed Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others heavily.
He Jin has always had a good relationship with the eunuchs, in order to be able to elect Queen He into the palace, He Jin bribed the presiding eunuchs, and then, in order to consolidate the favor, He Jin has always given gifts to the eunuchs. With this origin, Zhang Rang and the others didn't think there would be any problem with receiving his gifts.
The war in Jizhou continued, the road from Yang to Qingzhou was cut off, and the edicts of the imperial court came to Zhang Han, which were long outdated.
To be honest, the battle of the Yellow Turban did not have much to do with Zhang Han - the Yellow Turban did not attack Qingzhou, and Qingzhou was unable to take the initiative.
Judging from the current situation, if Zhang Han does his best to fish, he will be able to mobilize about 15,000 troops. However, these armies had their own subordinates and different orders, and without a month or two of training, they were completely unable to attack. Moreover, in the face of more than 100,000 Yellow Turban troops, this strength is not enough to attack, and after defeat, there is no way to fight back. Zhang Han naturally didn't take it.
Zhang Jiao has no way out, and only by conquering Yang can he have the possibility of success
I am in danger of attacking Qingzhou.
The two sides have a tacit understanding to maintain a clean fighting on the Eastern Front.
Zhang Han ordered all counties to be on strict alert, just in case, and his attention was focused on the plains, and he didn't care much about the war in other places.
For Zhang Han, the outcome of the war was unmistakable. No one can be the enemy of the whole world, and when Zhang Jiao calls himself "General Tiangong", leads the Yellow Turban to burn the government, hunt down the officials, and sweep away the places they pass like locusts, their defeat is inevitable. Zhang Han only hoped to reduce the loss of Qingzhou wholeheartedly, Pingyuan County was a big county, with thousands of fertile fields and a population of up to 1.5 million, so he couldn't afford not to take it to heart.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"What? What's the news? ”
A voice came from behind Zhang Han, and seeing Zhang Han thoughtful, Zhang Jian thought that he had received some urgent news.
"It's okay! I just saw the edict and was quite touched. ”
Zhang Han handed the information to Zhang Jian easily. Zhang Jian flipped through it, there was nothing special.
"In March, the emperor took Henan Yin Hejin as the general, led the left and right Yulin Army and the five lieutenants to camp Tundu Pavilion, and took the Zhenjing Division; Set up Hangu Pass around Luoyang, Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, ? Yuan, Revolving Gate, Mengjin, and Xiaopingjin Eight Passes, and Rank Eight Pass Commanders to Command the Military and Political Affairs of the Eight Passes, and Guard the Security of Kyoto" -- Strengthening Yang's defense is a matter of course and normal.
"Amnesty for the world, the party, and those who return to the disciples, only Zhang Jiao will not be pardoned. Zhao Gongqing went out of the horse and crossbow, and listed the descendants and officials who had a strategy for the battle formation, and the public car. Send Lu Zhi to Zhang Jiao, the left Zhonglang will Huangfu Song, and the right Zhonglang will be? Jun Yingchuan Yellow Turban. "-Well, that's interesting.
"It seems that Your Majesty is also in a hurry, and the party will pardon it, but together with this private soldier, I am afraid that it will be troublesome in the future......"
"Well, that's what I thought too. It is easy to delegate power and difficult to collect power, Haoqiang is already a large number of people, and the latent forces are deep-rooted, and no matter how openly he has private soldiers, he is afraid that the county order will not dare to face it squarely. Anyway, I won't let the Qingzhou Wang clan organize private soldiers. At most, I will recruit a group of young people to train first...... Third brother, that's not what I'm going to say, He Jin is a general! ”
"What? Are you going to congratulate General He? Zhang Jian's heart moved, but he teased.
"Hehe, Ho
Zhang Han emphatically emphasized.
"Oh, you mean ...... after the rebellion is quelled."
"That's natural, He Jin is a general, and he must want to live up to his name......"
Zhang Han is full of confidence, this is history. Zhang Jian's jaw head, this is human nature, He Jin will be like this, he can't help but go, even if he doesn't have that mind, someone will instigate him. The hatred between the scholars and the eunuchs is too deep, and now that they have a chance to breathe, they will definitely fight back, and they will not fail to win over He Jin. Otherwise, if you don't say anything, you're not afraid of no good things, but you're afraid that there are no good people! Zhang Jian thought that even if there was no chaos in the DPRK and the world, there would be no room for the Zhang family.
"By the way, how is Lu Guo? Is there anything new? ”
"Oh, it's still last month's news, no new ones. However, Zimei has already sorted out Lu Guo, and there is no large-scale yellow turban activity nearby. Third brother, just put your heart in your stomach! ”
Thinking of Zhang Huan, Zhang Han showed a smile, last month's letter, Zhang Huan was still bored, he led the troops to exterminate two yellow scarves of hundreds of people, and someone shouted, 'Zhang Zimei is here!' They were all scattered, and it was easier than the bandits at the beginning.
"Also, but the soldiers are in a hurry, and they are always a little relieved......"
"......" Hearing Zhang Jian say this, Zhang Han was also silent, no matter how sure he was, he would inevitably feel apprehensive.
After patrolling the camp, Zhang Huan found a high place to sit down, the wind was beautiful, the sun was shining warmly on his body, and the farmers were working in the fields in the distance - the green wheat seedlings grew taller, and the shouts of drills in the barracks were neat and murderous, it was really boring! Zhang Huan had a piece of grass in his mouth, he didn't know what was going on in Qingzhou, and he wanted to kill him. Of course, Zhang Huan just thinks about it.
Bu Ji was active between Cangting in Dongjun and Changyi in Shanyang County, Peng Tuo was in Runan and Xihua, Zhang Jiao's brothers were in Jizhou, Zhang Mancheng was in Nanyang, and Bocai was in Yingchuan. Thinking of Zhang Zhao, Zhang Huanle is happy, my uncle is always old, amazing!
Zhang Zhao had already prepared, as if he knew that there would be chaos in the Jiazi year, and began to evacuate the old and weak in the second half of last year, and concentrated personnel and materials in a number of large farms. As soon as this chaos occurred, the personnel were immediately evacuated with little loss.
"My lord," Zhang Han was about to say something, when Wu Zifang came in, "The soldiers have been gathered, please set off." ”
"Good! Third brother, you talk to Ah Yan, don't wait for me for dinner! She probably won't come back in the evening, so tell her not to wait for me! ”
Zhang Han's clothes and armor had already been put on, and he got up and went out with Wu Zifang. The Qingzhou soldiers may not be able to do much, but they are prepared. Zhang Han ordered the captains of each county to stay in the local area to train young and strong, but he concentrated 5,000 soldiers and horses, plus 2,000 state soldiers and 2,500 Qi soldiers, and in the process of reorganization and training, once something happened, he could immediately pull out a mobile force of 8,000 people to deal with it. In addition to the 3,000 soldiers and horses who reinforced the plains, this was already all the troops that Zhang Hanneng had mobilized.
