Tang Zhou's whistle-blowing was an unprecedented blow to Taiping Road, especially two months in advance!
According to the original plan, the Taoist disciples should be secretly gathered within these two months, the supplies should be transferred, the strategic policies of various places should be determined, and then the attack on states and counties around the world would begin.
At that time, with the arrival of people, sufficient supplies, and strong momentum, with lightning speed, the whole country, except for the remote prefectures and counties and the central prefectures, would basically fall under their shadow.
"How many people have been summoned so far?" Dian Wei asked in a solemn voice.
"A total of 600,000 people have been gathered in Lujiang County..." Zhou Cang whispered.
"Six hundred thousand is quite a lot. We can launch an attack!"
"First capture the county seat of Shu County."
"General Gongtu, the governor of Lujiang, has gone to Shouchun, Yangzhou. If we seize this opportunity, we might be able to capture the entire Lujiang area!" Zhou Cang said solemnly.
In Yangzhou, because it is relatively wealthy and the people live a better life, there are not as many people joining Taiping Road as there are in other states and counties. Otherwise, the tens of millions of people in Lujiang County alone would be terrifying.
"Have you found Wang Lang's secret territory?" Dian Weiyi asked pointedly.
He came to Yangzhou for several purposes, among which Wang Lang was the focus.
"I searched all over Lujiang County, but couldn't find it!" Zhou Cang lowered his head and shook it slightly.
"Are you really sure that Wang Lang's private territory is in Lujiang?"
"It's in Lujiang." Dian Wei said firmly. "Since we can't find it, it doesn't matter. Once we capture the entire Lujiang River, we can just wait for it to emerge. At that time, someone will help us clean it up." Dian Wei said solemnly.
"General Gongtu, I heard that something has happened over there in Youzhou, and the governor and the prefect of a county have been killed!"
"Well, that's right! The Youzhou side is quite desolate. General Liao Hua used a strategy to lead the Youzhou Yellow Turban Army into Guangyang County in advance and killed all the officials in the city!" Dian Wei nodded.
However, when he talked about the Youzhou Yellow Turban Army, something strange flashed in his eyes.
On the Youzhou Yellow Turban side, although there have been significant results, they are still a little unstable! In particular, that strange yellow scarf army disobeyed orders and looted like locusts, plundering the other four cities in Guangyang County and tying up the people.
Of course, he won't tell anyone this, otherwise if he sets an example, they will inevitably do such outrageous things later when they are freed from restraints.
"Alright! Let's start the fight. In the name of Zhoucang Daqushuai, we will set up our flag and raise the account!" Dian Wei stood up suddenly and said forcefully.
Following Dian Wei's order, rhythmic drumming sounds began to appear in the sky above Lu'an City, and then, a series of vast horn horns echoed in the sky.
Waves of evil energy surged into the sky.
“Dong dong dong!!!”
When the people in the city heard these trumpets and roars, they all knew that a mutiny had occurred. But what they didn't expect was that such a day would happen in Lu'an City, a small and remote county.
The officers and soldiers in the city, even if they were all out, would not have such a formation. It must be other mutinies!
The knowledgeable gentry from aristocratic families all closed their doors tightly because Taiping Dao was in trouble in Lu'an City.
The Yellow Turban Army in Yangzhou was formed! !
Fortunately, Dian Wei, Zhou Cang and others are not like the anomaly in Youzhou, otherwise many of these wealthy and aristocratic families might disappear!
Conspiracy does not happen overnight. After Dian Wei led Zhou Cang to revolt, it took eight days to surround the four cities near Lu'an.
Under the momentum of hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, Anfeng, Xunyang, Longshu, Juchao and other cities voluntarily surrendered and opened their city gates.
There was no other way. Some county captains and magistrates surrendered without much thought after knowing that the Yellow Turban Army was coming to kill them. Even some aristocratic families secretly asked the soldiers guarding the city to open the city gates to welcome the Yellow Turban Army into the city.
The momentum is overwhelming!
…
…
"Report!! Lord Governor, Zhou Cang, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, has raised his flag in Lu'an City, raised his flag, and started to mobilize. He has gathered millions of Yellow Turban Army and started to storm Lujiang County!" A piece of news came to the Shouchun Governor's Office in Yangzhou. .
Although they had long received news that Zhou Cang would lead his troops to invade Yangzhou, they did not expect that it would actually be carried out within Yangzhou.
"Didn't the intelligence say that a million Yellow Turban troops gathered from Yuzhang County? How did it become Lujiang County?!" Wang Lang said in panic.
He has a lot of plans in Lujiang. If he is harmed by the Yellow Turban Army, he will suffer great losses.
However, he didn't know what he thought of, and he immediately calmed down.
Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, maybe the layout of Lujiang County can achieve great success!
"There are Yellow Turban uprisings in Yuzhang, Jiujiang County, etc., and cholera is slowly starting to spread across the counties and counties, but the Yellow Turban Army in Lujiang is the deepest hidden one." Zhu Haoning said.
At present, the Yellow Turban Army does not seem to be very powerful, and some counties can defend their cities by relying on officers and soldiers.
"Everyone, we have been discussing for some days. Please stick to it. Once you find the opportunity, you will do your best to kill the Taiping Dao rebels and restore peace to the world!"
"Yes!" Zhu Hao, Gu Yong, Yang Xu and others all responded sonorously, and then everyone returned to their respective counties.
In troubled times, heroes emerge!
The Yellow Turban Rebellion was their opportunity, the best time to accumulate merit, gain a bright future, and become famous.
They were in the Governor's Mansion during these days, but they had a lot of exchanges, including the situation of General Zhu Jun going south.
"Lord Governor, three days ago, I received a military report from General Fubo to dispatch 200,000 troops in Dongye County and rush to Wushang City."
"I wonder how you can command these two hundred thousand people?!" Gu Yong whispered to Wang Lang after everyone left,
In fact, under normal circumstances, General Fubo Lin Mu could disobey the orders of the governor, and he could even disobey the orders of some prefects. But for some reason, Lin Mu always obeyed orders.
"I think Yuan Tan must have already made plans, why should I give random instructions?" Wang Lang said with a smile.
Haha... I really had a draft for a long time! Gu Yong's mouth curled up without any trace.
"Kuiji County is located in a remote area, and Taiping Road has not taken root here, so there is no Yellow Turban Army born in the county. Then these 200,000 troops can be used on other battlefields. Why not transfer them to Lujiang County?" Gu Yong followed Wang Lang's wishes. Directly.
In fact, Taiping Dao did not preach in Kuaiji County, which was due to the influence of Lin Mu. He asked Gu Yong to attack Taiping Dao secretly or openly, and basically eliminated the spread of Taiping Dao in Kuaiji County.
"Okay! Let's go to Lujiang County and meet Zhou Cang, the Yellow Turban Canal Commander!" Wang Lang laughed.
Hearing Wang Lang's approval of this decision, Gu Yong was determined, fearing that you would drag Lin Mu to Jiujiang County.
"In addition, you arrange for an army supervisor to go to Lin Mu's army and command Lin Mu to confront Zhou Cang head-on! Although Lin Mu is a eunuch's minion, his military ability is still very good, and the tiger generals under him are also Quite a few, it would be easier if they could disrupt their military strategy." Wang Lang said solemnly.
Obviously, he still highly recognized Lin Mu's military capabilities.
"It is difficult for us to interfere in the affairs of supervising the army. After all, he is a genuine General Fubo. If he turns the table and leads the army to ignore Lujiang County, we will not be able to do anything to him. Don't push him too hard."
"However, I can ask Xie Fei, the lord of Wushang City, to make things difficult for him in terms of food and grass, so that his soldiers can go to war half hungry." Gu Yong said with a ruthless look on his face.
"Okay! Yuan Tan is really good, he can see clearly. It's up to you." Wang Lang was overjoyed. He didn't expect that this rookie of the Gu family would be so cooperative with him. He was really lucky. With the support of the Gu family, affairs in Yangzhou would be much easier.
"When both Lin Mu and the Yellow Turban Army are defeated, I can come out and clean up the mess! Kill two birds with one stone!" Wang Lang secretly rejoiced.
"Moreover, as long as Zhou Cang, the great canal commander, is killed, the Yangzhou Yellow Turbans can be completely solved. At that time, my achievements will allow me to go further!" Wang Lang was ecstatic in his heart. He seemed to have seen himself entering the Longting Center and fighting side by side with his teacher Yang Ci.
"Yuan Tan, there is no Yellow Turban Army in Kuaiji County, why not dispatch some county soldiers to Jiujiang County to support?" Wang Lang pointed out.
Although the current momentum of the Yellow Turban Army is not great, he is still worried about Shouchun's safety. As a new governor, he is not as well-established in Jiujiang County as the previous governor Liu Yao. He needs foreign aid.
"No problem! I can summon 300,000 county troops and stock them in Zhuji City until the situation changes. If necessary, I will immediately rush to the aid of Jiujiang County." Gu Yong said with a light in the depths of his eyes.
"However, due to the Xu Zhao Rebellion and the natural disasters, the county is very short of food and weapons. I hope the Lord can provide some support." Gu Yong sighed.
"Are you out of food and weapons again?" Wang Lang raised his eyebrows.
This is the third time Gu Yong has asked him for something.
