Light and seven years.
The big man who had been calm for more than two hundred years was finally startled by a thunder.
"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, and the age of Jiazi will be good for the world."
Overnight, it seemed like an agreement was made. Countless common people all over the world, wearing yellow scarves and armed with crude weapons and even simple farm tools, are frantically attacking government offices everywhere. They burned down government offices, killed officials, and looted everywhere.
Among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, except for the remote Jiaoyi states and the remote Liang state, wars broke out in all states. The most serious among them are the eight states of Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan.
The leader of the Yellow Turbans, Zhang Jiao, called himself Tiangong General, while his younger brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang called themselves Digong General and Renggong General.
Zhang Jiao used his prestige among the people to divide the Yellow Turban believers in the world into thirty-six directions, with more than 10,000 people in Dafang and six to seven thousand people in Xiaofang. Each side set up a commander, who was under unified command, and set off a vigorous Yellow Turban Uprising in the world.
In addition to most of these wars being caused by the Yellow Turbans, there are also some local bandits or some short-sighted careerists who took advantage of the situation.
Within a month, fighting broke out in seven states and twenty-eight counties across the country. The Yellow Turban Army was in turmoil, states and counties were lost, and officials fled, which shocked Kyoto.
Seeing how powerful Taiping Dao was, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty finally felt that his country might be unstable. Ling Emperor Liu Hong hurriedly ordered He Jin to be the general, and he led the five battalions of Yulin soldiers to garrison in Duting, order weapons, and guard the capital.
For this reason, Emperor Ling was still worried. In order to defend Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, he sent elite soldiers and generals to strictly guard the eight passes of Luoyang.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sent letters to Guguan, Dagu, Guangcheng, Yique, Fuyuan, Xuanmen, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin and other Kyoto passes to set up captains to garrison.
On the other hand, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty Liu Hong issued an order to take strict precautions, ordering all states and counties to prepare for war, train soldiers, organize weapons, and summon rebels.
Faced with such a crisis, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty rarely really took it seriously and asked all civil and military officials for advice.
The development of the Han Dynasty has gone through more than four hundred years. The prestige of the Han Dynasty has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and naturally there is no shortage of loyal ministers and good generals.
Huangfu Song made an admonition to lift the ban on the party, and donated the palace money and fine horses from the Xiyuan to the sergeants to improve their morale.
And Lu Qiang said to Emperor Ling: "The party has been imprisoned for a long time. If you conspire with the Yellow Turbans, you will regret it and there is no way to save it."
When Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty faced the collapse of his country, how could he dare to take any more risks? He immediately accepted the proposal and granted amnesty to the party members on Renzi Day, returned all the immigrants, asked the ministers to donate horses and crossbows, and recommended the generals Descendants and people with profound strategic knowledge from the public went to the Public Transport Department to be interviewed in order to select generals to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
On the other hand, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wanted to guard the Yellow Turbans in various places as soon as possible to prevent the world situation from deteriorating further. Make every effort to organize good generals and send elite troops to the Han states to suppress chaos in various places.
After many plans, the Liu Han court decided to divide its troops into three groups to quell the rebellion. Lu Zhi led the deputy general Zong Yuan and led the five northern army sergeants to take charge of the northern front and went to the Jizhou battlefield to deal with Zhang Jiao's main force.
The second and third routes were led by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun respectively. They controlled more than 40,000 troops from the Five Schools, Sanhe Knights and newly recruited elite warriors to attack the Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area.
Zhu Jun also recruited Sun Jian from Xiapi to serve as Sima of the army. He led young men from his hometown and recruited merchant brigades and elite soldiers from Huai River and Surabaya. A total of more than a thousand people set out to join Zhu Jun's army.
At this point in history, Zhu Jun should have turned defeat into victory in the Battle of Changshe after losing the first battle. From then on, the Yellow Turbans gradually fell into Xishan and were gradually defeated.
But history is not the current reality after all. Zhang Jiao was worried that Zhang Liang was inexperienced and that he was not as experienced as the veteran general who had fought in the imperial court for many years, so he sent his adopted son Zhang Dingbian to assist Zhang Liang.
And that Zhang Dingbian was indeed one of the most famous generals in the late Yuan Dynasty. As soon as he entered the battlefield of Changshe, he realized the disadvantage of the Yellow Turban camp being located in a grassy area. Zhang Liang and Bo Cai immediately proposed to regroup the camp.
But this move dumbfounded Huangfu Song, who had finally come up with a clever plan to defeat the enemy. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun saw that the fire attack plan was difficult to achieve, so they had to defend the city with all their strength and maintain the situation with all their strength.
However, although the Yellow Turban Army was composed of civilians, and was severely lacking in armor and combat effectiveness, it could not help but be large in number. Relying on the human sea tactics, although the Han army defended the city with all its strength, Changshe City was still in danger and could not be defended for a long time.
When the imperial court saw that the armies of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were surrounded, in order to avoid the serious loss of the main force and the collapse of the entire battlefield. The Han court, headed by Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong, could only organize another cavalry force to support them. The leader of the army this time was none other than the future famous traitor of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao Cao Mengde.
Cao Cao was worthy of being a famous military strategist in the future. When he learned about the war situation in Changshe, he did not rush to support him. Instead, they sent people to sneak into Changshe City in advance and made contact with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun in Changshe City.
Later, Cao Cao successively implemented the strategy of suspicious soldiers and the strategy of attacking from the east and attacking in the west. Coupled with his internal and external attacks, he finally helped the main force of the Han army in Changshe City to break out of the encirclement. He also won a small victory over the Yellow Turbans and established the Yellow Turbans. The first achievement since the war.
Afterwards, the three of them discussed and finally decided to rely on the fortified city to block the attack step by step, trying their best to consume the Yellow Turbans' effective strength before trying to gain a chance to fight.
As a result, the Central Plains battlefield began to fall into a state of confrontation.
The battle of Changshe did not go well and did not develop as it did in history. How could the Han army from other parties go smoothly?
On the battlefield in Jizhou, although Lu Zhi was old and strong, and used tactics repeatedly, Zhang Jiao knew that his ability to lead troops was not as good as Lu Zhi's, so he used his troops extremely cautiously. This allowed Lu Zhi to have a few small victories, but his impact on the Yellow Turbans was extremely limited, and Lu Zhi fell into a stalemate with Zhang Jiao.
In fact, Lu Zhi should be lucky that because Zhang Jue was in poor health, Chi You stood by him at all times to take care of Zhang Jue's health and protect Zhang Jue's safety. This prevented Chi You from directly participating in the battle between the two sides. Otherwise, even if Chi You had not reached his peak for the time being, he might not have been able to resist Lu Zhi.
As for the Youzhou battlefield, Liu Yan was not the governor of Youzhou in the current time and space, but Liu Yu had arrived in Youzhou early.
Even though Liu Yu received help from the three Taozi brothers, Cheng Yuanzhi, who was secretly aided by the Yingzheng forces, suppressed the Yellow Turbans, but it was difficult to win quickly and could not find a chance to decide the outcome in a single battle.
The war situation in the north and the Central Plains is just a stalemate, but the southern battlefield is in trouble.
Fortunately, Yangzhou is not as powerful as the Yellow Turbans in the Central Plains and the North, and the Han army is still capable of fighting.
But the battlefield in Jingzhou completely collapsed.
The butterfly effect after Li Xiang came to Dahan finally broke out completely during the Yellow Turban Uprising. Perhaps, from now on, history will take a completely different direction.
