Chapter 276: Guo Jia Zhang Xuan Huang
Zhang Jiao placed all his hopes on this decisive battle and on a million-strong army, but little did he know that even if the Yellow Turbans won the battle, they would still be unable to escape the outcome of failure. Long?tan?shu?net Yikanshu ·1kanshu·
The biggest crisis of the Yellow Turbans is never external, but lies within the Yellow Turbans themselves. Sometimes too fast growth in strength is not necessarily a good thing.
Today's Yellow Turban is like a leaky wooden bucket. No matter how much water is added to it, it will never be full.
In the original history, Zhang Jiao died of illness due to overwork half a year after the Yellow Turban Uprising. Although he has survived until now, he is relying on willpower to hold on.
Even if the Yellow Turbans deliberately concealed it, both the Han Dynasty and Qin Hao got the exact news. Zhang Jiao's health was getting worse and worse, and he was about to run out of fuel.
Controlling the human body with will is an act that goes against the will of heaven and is destined not to last long, so Qin Hao concluded that Zhang Jiao would not live for more than a year.
Once Zhang Jiao dies, the Yellow Turbans' internal conflicts will inevitably fall into endless internal strife without anyone suppressing them, and they will be defeated one by one by the Han Dynasty.
The Yellow Turban Uprising of this era was definitely the largest peasant uprising initiated by the people at the bottom.
However, the gap in social power was too large, which determined that the army was doomed to fail at the beginning.
However, despite the defeat, the Yellow Turbans will not disappear because of this. The remnants of the party scattered all over the country still cannot be booed.
After the failure of the Yellow Turbans in original history, Zhang Jiao's apprentice Zhang Baiqi established the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, while Zhang Niujiao established the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army in the Taihang Black Mountains at the border with Hebei.
In addition, in places such as Mount Tai, Runan, and Hedong, there are a large number of remnants of the Yellow Turbans who continue to resist the rule of the Han Dynasty. Take a look at the book ·1kanshu·
The number of these remnants of the Yellow Turbans ranges from millions to hundreds of thousands. In addition, there are also an extremely large number of believers among the people, so it is almost impossible to completely eradicate them.
The strongest among the remaining Yellow Turbans were Qingzhou Zhang Baiqi and Heishan Zhang Niujiao, but Zhang Baiqi died in the attack on Yanzhou. In the end, most of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were absorbed by Cao Cao and became the world-famous Qingzhou Army.
Guan Hai led the remnants of his small army back to Qingzhou, and when Liu Bei went south to rescue Xuzhou, he died in the hands of Guan Yu. From then on, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were completely destroyed.
After the Black Mountain Yellow Turban leader Zhang Niujiao died of illness, his adopted son Chu Feiyan took over the throne and changed his name to Zhang Yan. He traveled among the three major vassal forces of Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao.
Both Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao wanted to conquer Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan helped Gongsun Zan resist Yuan Shao, and also helped Yuan Shao defeat Cao Cao. In the end, he surrendered to Cao Cao and became the founding hero of Cao Wei. He was one of the few yellow turban generals who met a good death.
Cao Cao dominated the Central Plains because of the Qingzhou Army. If Qin Hao could conquer the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, even just a part of them, it would be of immeasurable benefit to his future campaign across the world. At the very least, he could expand the population of Bingzhou.
Dongfang Sheng was the adopted daughter of Zhang Jiao, a saint of the Taiping Religion, and the commander of the Taiping Guards. She had a very high prestige among the Yellow Turban Army. If it weren't for the fact that she was a daughter, Zhang Jiao would probably have cultivated her as his heir.
As far as Qin Hao's current resources in the Yellow Turban Army are concerned, only Dongfang Sheng can try to preserve the Yellow Turban's vitality after the Yellow Turban's failure and control part of the Yellow Turban Army's power.
When the real troubled times come, if Dongfang Sheng leads his people to submit to Qin Hao, the strength of Qin Hao's men will skyrocket.
Of course, in addition to the army and the huge population of the Yellow Turban Army, the one that Qin Hao coveted the most was the Taiping Guards.
There are countless espionage organizations among the major forces in the world, but there are only three largest intelligence agencies. According to their strength, they are: Da Sohe, Taipingwei and Heibingtai.
Although the Qin family spent a lot of effort on the Black Ice Platform, compared with the two behemoths of the Taiping Sect of the Han Dynasty, the investment was still too little.
However, if Zhang Rang leads the Taiping Guards to join him in the future, and Dongfang Sheng leads the Taiping Guards to join him again, Black Ice Platform will have an intelligence network all over the Han Dynasty and become the largest intelligence agency in the world.
There is no doubt about the role of intelligence in troubled times. Intelligence can take advantage of others by being one step ahead.
If Qin Hao could have the largest intelligence agency in the world at the beginning of the troubled times, even if other princes established intelligence organizations in the future, Qin Hao would be able to maintain an absolute advantage in intelligence.
Qin Hao took out a token from his arms and handed it to Dongfang Sheng. Dongfang Sheng did not take it, but asked: "You still want to hand over the Yellow Character Department to me?"
This token is the yellow number one token returned by Dongfang Sheng.
"Don't get me wrong, I guess you will return to Chenliu soon, so I will lend you your hand and give this to another person for me."
Although Dongfang Sheng has extraordinary talents in spy warfare, as the commander of the Taiping Guards, she is indeed not suitable to continue to be in charge of the Jinyi Huangzi Department.
Dongfang Sheng also knew this, so he asked: "Who is the new Yellow Number One?"
A trace of recollection flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and a mysterious smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he said: "You must know this person, and he is also the number one Xuanzi."
Dongfang Sheng was shocked. She didn't know that Xuanzi No. 1 was also in the Yellow Turbans, and that two of the four Xuanhuang divisions of Jinyiwei Tiandi were in the Yellow Turbans, which showed that Qin Hao attached great importance to the Yellow Turbans.
"This person's name is Guo Jia, whose courtesy name is Fengxiao."
Dongfang Sheng frowned, she didn't know this person.
"But in the Yellow Turban Army, he has another name." Qin Hao's eyes flashed and he said with an evil smile: "Jia Guo."
"It's him!" Dongfang Sheng's pupils shrank, and the mouth-opening boss felt an unknown fire in his heart.
Jia Guo is Xiang Yu's number one counselor. How could Dongfang Sheng not recognize him? It's just that she didn't expect that Jia Guo was Qin Hao's man.
It turns out that Xiang Yu has manpower around him, no wonder he can easily crack his plan! Dongfang Sheng felt dark in his heart.
Dongfang Sheng thought that Qin Hao could crack her plan, and it was all Guo Jia's credit. However, what she didn't know was that Guo Jia had not provided intelligence to Qin Hao.
The reason why Qin Hao was sure that the Yellow Turbans would attack Hulao Pass was only based on his own analysis after seeing Dongfang Sheng.
Since Guo Jia, who was in charge of the Xuanzi Department, had never provided any information to Qin Hao, why did Qin Hao hand over the Huangzi Department to Guo Jia?
When Guo Jia got the yellow number one token from Dongfang Sheng, he naturally understood what to do next based on his intelligence.
And when this duel between common people and aristocratic families ends with the Yellow Turbans, Guo Jia will be completely disappointed with them, and then help Dongfang Sheng control the Yellow Turbans with the Xuanhuang Division in his hands.
After all, Dongfang Sheng is just a woman, and it is impossible for everyone to be convinced by her. With Guo Jia's assistance, Dongfang Sheng can at least make up for his intellectual shortcomings, avoid others' calculations, and gain maximum control over the Yellow Turban Army.
After calming down Dongfang Sheng's anger, Qin Hao smiled lightly and said: "Fengxiao will help you become a true empress."</p>
