Zhang Jiao's impact on the Han Dynasty's destiny was naturally impossible for Ji Zhao not to notice.
In the void of heaven.
Under the boundless peach forest, the petals are shining brightly all the time, and the countless petals with dense air cover the two sleeping figures.
His pupils suddenly opened.
The petals scattered instantly, then circled around the two of them, and the crowns, robes, and brocade clothes fell on them.
Ji Zhao and Ji Ling both woke up almost at the same time!
Ji Lingjun was extremely shocked and said in disbelief: "There are actually mortals trying to shake the destiny of heaven by themselves!"
Hitting an egg against a stone!
This was the word that appeared in their minds instantly.
Zhang Jiao did master some Taoist techniques.
But that is a technique, not a method, a technique, not a Tao!
Zhang Jiao is indeed a special person. There are very few such people. He can even feel the sky through his mortal body.
But what a pity.
He has no power!
This world is unique to Ji Zhao!
This is an iron law that cannot be changed.
His spirit, his destiny, even if it is burning brightly, even if it is just facing the fate of the great man in the sunset, it is nothing more than a mantis' arm like a chariot, or a worm shaking a tree!
Unless he can take advantage of the general trend of the world and carry endless people's hearts, maybe he can do it.
In fact, after Ji Zhao woke up this time, what he found most strange was why Zhang Jiao appeared at this time?
When the country lasted for thousands of years, before the Qin and Han Dynasties, he made an agreement with the way of heaven, and the destiny of the Qin and Han Dynasties would not be reduced, which meant that the Han Dynasty should have at least four hundred years of destiny.
The two Han Dynasties each lasted two hundred years. If it exceeds four hundred years, the people of the world will struggle. The important things must be done by people.
But Ji Zhao soon discovered that during the pre-Han Dynasty, although the Han court was more prosperous and had greater achievements in creation, it could not continue the destiny.
Because the Han Dynasty did not use its peak national power to continue its national rule, but invested heavily in developing the underdeveloped areas of Liaodong, Western Regions, Jiangdong, and Lingnan.
The Liaodong Protectorate and the Western Region Protectorate were far more prosperous than the Han Dynasty in history. The population of Lingnan was nearly double that in real history. Jiangdong, especially the old land of Wu County, was a densely populated area.
This large-scale investment in development greatly depleted the Han Dynasty's national strength and national destiny.
Dong Han restrained himself a little and was not affected much.
The Han Dynasty is only three hundred years old, and the Eastern Han Dynasty is only one hundred years old. Theoretically, it is not even the end of the Han Dynasty, so why is Zhang Jiao already here?
Ji Zhao remembered that in his previous life, the Han Dynasty had been through the torment of two emperors, Emperor Huan of Han and Emperor Han Ling, and was at the end of its power.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was extravagant and indulged in pleasure in the Western Garden, and he forcibly transformed himself from a rather smart emperor into a waste.
At that time, the Han Dynasty army, which was once unparalleled in the world, was fragile, and the elites like Sanhe and Five Schools were directly disbanded.
Counties and counties were completely unable to stop the Yellow Turban Army, so powerful families from various places could only recruit armed forces to suppress it.
The Yellow Turban Uprising was equivalent to the final blow to the Eastern Han Dynasty. About thirty or forty years after the Yellow Turban Uprising, the Eastern Han Dynasty was completely destroyed.
But in this world, although the disaster of party imprisonment broke out in the Han Dynasty, the contradictions in society were not serious enough to completely destroy it.
A two-hundred-year-old dynasty is completely different from a one-hundred-year-old dynasty, whether it is the land annexation situation or the depleted state of the army.
The Han court's army has experienced border wars and still maintains combat effectiveness. It is basically impossible for them to be scattered by the peasant army.
Zhang Jiao in this world has a hellish start. Even if he is stronger than in history, facing this enhanced version of Han Ting, he does not even need powerful weapons. It is almost an impossible task to overthrow the big Han.
Even if heaven and earth are united in time, the problem is that we are still in the destiny stage of the great man.
Even the way of heaven cannot completely separate itself from social contradictions and forcefully advance history.
Is this to make the Han Dynasty prosper again?
impossible!
This is inconsistent with the conclusion reached by Ji Zhao's three hundred years of observation of the movement of heaven.
Ji Zhao was vaguely confused. He raised his head and looked at Tiandao. He was a little unsure as to why Tiandao would perform such a scene.
Ji Zhao stood in the sky and could see the fire clearly, but Zhang Jiao on earth did not know.
He only had a vague sense of it, but Ji Zhao couldn't fully understand it after hundreds of years of observation. How could he understand it in just this moment?
After the ceremony, Zhang Jiao immediately ordered the Taiping troops in various counties to kill officials, sacrifice flags and raise righteousness, and use the blood of corrupt officials to sacrifice Taiping brothers.
According to Zhang Jiao, “The situation in the world has reached this point.
Taipingdao will not hide our goals. We are going to use violence to overthrow the Han Dynasty. We will resolutely and without hesitation kill everyone who caused the darkness in this world, and let all those who once oppressed us die in trembling fear. , and finally establish an earthly country. "
Luo Xiao was sitting on the horse. No one had seen him. When he saw the high-spirited Zhang Jiao, he thought of the decadent Han court.
Although he didn't know whether the destiny of the Han Dynasty had ended, it was obvious that the strength of the Han Dynasty still existed.
Luo Xiao and many people in the Luo family had some different ideas. In his opinion, instead of watching the Han Dynasty decay and linger, it would be better for Zhang Jiao to kick the Han Dynasty off the cliff.
No matter who establishes a new era in the future, things will be better than now. Emperor Guangwu of the Later Han Dynasty did a good job, but as if there is a curse, wise emperors are always short-lived. As a result, the entire Later Han Dynasty did really poorly compared to the earlier Han Dynasty. .
…
Luoyang Center.
Facing the Taiping Army that gathered among the prefectures and counties, the emperor and the ministers finally paid attention to it, and it could even be said that they became a little panicked.
After all, according to the battle reports, the Taiping Army was crisscrossing the counties and counties, and it was almost difficult to find opponents. Countless county magistrates and officials abandoned their seals and left.
According to the current trend, conquering the county government is just a matter of time. The county soldiers are far from the Taiping Army's opponents in terms of strength and quantity.
It is not impossible to even directly cross the river and invade Luoyang.
Who has seen such a scene?
Although the later Han Dynasty suppressed powerful people, it was unfavorable. Although the imperial court and powerful people exploited the people very seriously, and the exclusive power of relatives was very serious, it cannot be denied that these relatives, powerful people, and even Confucian scholars fought fiercely!
Military merit is engraved in the blood of the Han Dynasty. If foreign relatives and eunuchs want to gain prestige, fighting barbarians and winning is the fastest way.
For a hundred years, there have been wars only on the border. Luoyang is in the world, not a frontier place like Chang'an, which can be exposed to the iron hoof of the north at any time.
Who would have thought that someone could invade Luoyang?
The emperor convened the ministers and ministers for discussion, and one of the ministers immediately said: "Your Majesty, the troops of the prefecture and country cannot be controlled. The governors, governors, magistrates, school captains, etc. of each state should contact the local heroes and recruit local braves to jointly destroy the bandits. Let the peace between the states and counties be settled as soon as possible.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the palace had different expressions.
The emperor immediately frowned. He was a smart man and understood that if the local government recruited local warriors, even if the Taiping Army was defeated, the local government would be unstoppable.
Now that the imperial power cannot enter the county, if they are allowed to have military power again, then the Han emperor will really become the lord of Luoyang like Emperor Zhou.
Moreover, although the rebel army is powerful, the imperial court is not without the power to fight back, and it has not yet reached the point where each local government needs to take the lead in quelling the chaos.
Now the imperial court can still take a leading position in the process of quelling the chaos. Thinking of this, the emperor immediately said: "No, if there are thieves among the people who conspire with the Taiping Army, wouldn't they be destroying themselves?
Integrate the Luoyang Forbidden Army, guard the Luoyang Pass, send out troops as imperial school captains, recruit athletes from counties and counties, use Yulin orphans, recruit Sanhe knights, and Luoyang imperial army academy officers and officers all send troops, and the athletes from counties are incorporated into the imperial army. between.
First, the counties of Sanhe, Hongnong, Yingchuan, Beidu, and other places in Henan and Hebei will be settled. Then according to this edict, the Taiping rebels will be put down quickly! "
The person who just proposed and the other people looked at each other secretly, knowing that the temptation just now failed.
Their goal was to test the emperor's views on the place, but the emperor was very wary, so it was impossible for the emperor to let go of the party's control.
As the emperor ordered a continuous army to set off from Luoyang and Sanhe counties, with flags covering the sky and armor bright, the uneasiness caused by the Taiping Army was instantly swept away.
The imperial court is the general trend of the world. It is overwhelming and unstoppable. The thieves are just chickens and dogs!
Although there are no good families in the six counties after the capital is moved, the Three Rivers Knights and the Orphans of the Yulin are still there, as long as these two powerful men are still there.
This big man will not die!
This day will not change!
The Taiping Army swept through Qingzhou, and then encountered fierce resistance in Jimo and Linzi. The Lu family had been operating for too long, and it almost became a country within a country.
Yanzhou and Yuzhou were small, and the Taiping Army seemed to have occupied the entire territory, fighting fiercely with the officers and soldiers in the counties.
The Jingzhou Taiping Army was even gathering to attack Nanyang. Once they broke into Nanyang, they would be able to cut off a major source of tax revenue for the imperial court.
As the headquarters of Taiping Road, Jizhou was in full swing. Zhang Jiao was extremely excited and said to Luo Xiao: "Zi Ling, is the imperial court so vulnerable?
The officials fled in the hope of the wind, leaving the army vulnerable. At this speed, they could cross the river in a short time and approach Luoyang.
The death of the Han Dynasty is right before our eyes! "
Facing the optimistic Zhang Jiao, Luo Xiao's eyes were extremely dark.
The combat effectiveness of the county soldiers was higher than he expected. The famous generals from the imperial court and the troops who had experienced the war had not yet taken action.
The imperial court has not exhausted its efforts to let local powerful forces take action. The imperial court has too many cards to play, and that is the most dangerous stage.
But this was expected. Luo Xiao had already told Zhang Jiao that this was an uprising that was bound to fail. It was just that Zhang Jiao had a trace of luck in his heart and was just deceiving himself here.

The Taiping Road originated from seven states and hundreds of counties, and everyone was a Taoist disciple. The world responded, the capital was shaken, the emperor and his officials were heartbroken, and there were rumors among the people: "The Han Dynasty is not at peace, but the world is at peace!" - "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" Biography of the Taiping Army
