Chapter 223: Everywhere you look, they are all rebels(1/3)
Just after Qin Yu copied Cai Yong's entry on "Bo Gu Tong Jin".
Liu Hong finally reacted after the battle reports came from various places.
He Jin, who was the Yin of Henan at that time, was directly worshiped as a general and led the sergeants of the fifth battalion of the Yulin Army to station in Duting.
Equip yourself with weapons to defend the capital.
Also from Hangu Pass, Dugu, Guangcheng, Yique, Xuanyuan, Xuanmen, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin and other pass points.
Set up a garrison of captains.
At the same time, he issued orders to all localities to take strict precautions and ordered all states and counties to prepare for war.
Train soldiers, equip weapons, and gather rebels.
At this time, Liu Hong did not have much real idea about the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
No matter in his eyes or in the eyes of the eunuchs around him.
These ordinary people who are rising up are really not a threat.
As long as the imperial court prepares its military and the states and counties carry out suppression, these rebellious refugees will naturally be suppressed quickly.
However, the scholars in the court knew it very well.
This time the Yellow Turban Rebellion was completely different from ordinary refugee uprisings.
In their original plan.
If this Taipingdao uprising does not pose a sufficient threat.
That would not be of any real benefit to them.
The Han Dynasty has been stable for too long.
Especially in these troubled times.
It is difficult for ordinary people to even have a full stomach, so how can they fight against the elite soldiers of the imperial court with their own meager strength?
It is precisely for this reason that these aristocratic families chose to fund Taiping Dao from the very beginning.
It's just that they obviously couldn't have imagined it.
Taipingdao, however, stood in front of them before the incident was about to start.
Zhang Jiao used incredible means to transform dozens of millions of ordinary refugees into strong men full of blood and steel before the uprising.
In just a moment, Taiping Dao's strength far exceeded the expectations of those aristocratic families.
It even made them truly understand what it means to play with fire and burn yourself.
However, the people of these aristocratic families were not panicked.
To them, these are actually insignificant.
Even if we take a step back 10,000 steps, if that angle can really gain momentum in the future and destroy the entire Han Dynasty.
so what?
They will just change their identities and will continue to be active in this world in the future.
As for now...
It is still too early for the Han Dynasty to be defeated.
But what if the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is really stubborn and ignorant?
Then don't blame them for not giving face.
At that time, as long as they choose to stand with those on the path of peace.
Then how could even Liu Hong fight against the general trend of the world?
But this is only the final choice.
These aristocratic families will not take this road easily before they reach a dead end.
For them.
If you want to fight against the Tianwei of the Han Dynasty, you will inevitably pay a huge price.
And after Zhang Jiao takes over the imperial court, we still don’t know what will happen.
These unknowns are costs to them.
Compared with bearing such a huge cost.
It must be more comfortable to be able to drink blood freely in this rotten land without having to bear anything.
Half a month later.
The situation quickly deteriorated everywhere.
The battle reports from the seven states and twenty-eight counties were sent to Luoyang like snowflakes.
Liu Hong also noticed a huge threat beginning to fill his head.
As for what those scholars wanted, the eunuchs who had always chosen to confront them and suppress them were naturally very clear about it.
At this time, Lu Jiang, the official of the Central Committee, advised Liu Hong: "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."
Liu Hong naturally knew how powerful it was.
On normal days, Liu Hong would naturally continue to suppress these party members.
but now……
Regret is hopeless...
Later, Liu Hong issued an edict to amnesty the party members.
Return exiled criminals from various places.
Then he asked the ministers in the imperial court to donate horses, crossbows, and weapons.
Recommend the sons of generals and people with profound strategic knowledge to the Public Transport Department for interviews.
As a result, the various aristocratic families naturally no longer have any dissatisfaction.
They got what they wanted.
Liu Hong lifted the shackles of the party and gave these aristocratic families enough positions to serve as their promotion channels.
Aren’t these recommended generals and recommended disciples the military merits prepared for them?
As long as they have military merit, they will naturally get the positions they want after defeating the Yellow Turban Army.
At the same time, these aristocratic families must also be sincere enough.
For example, those horses, crossbows, weapons, etc., these are the conditions Liu Hong put forward for them!
Everything is just an exchange of interests.
And in this exchange of interests, everyone above got what they wanted.
In the end, the only people who suffered were the people who were already oppressed and had to revolt.
after.
Liu Hong then sent elite troops to suppress the chaos in various places.
Lu Zhi was ordered to lead the deputy general Zong Yuan and the five schools of the Northern Army to take charge of the northern front and deal with Zhang Jiao's main force.
He also ordered Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to lead an army each and control the five schools, the Three Rivers Knights, and the newly recruited rural warriors, totaling more than 40,000 people.
Go to attack the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan area.
Zhu Jun also recruited Sun Jian from Xiapi as an assistant army commander, and took more than a thousand people recruited into Zhu Jun's army.
At the great meeting.
These matters have been carefully discussed by various ministers.
And at this time.
A battle report came through, but it broke the situation that had finally been stabilized at the meeting.
"There is actually a Yellow Turban rebellion in Nanyang County!"
Liu Hong looked at the battle report in front of him and suddenly became furious.
"Then what does Chu Gong, the governor of Nanyang, do for a living! How could such a large Nanyang County be captured by the Yellow Turban Army?"
"It's so damned, it's so damned!"
Liu Hong, who had not shown the slightest anger in the face of rebellions in other places, seemed to be furious at this time.
However, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty knew very well why this was happening.
Isn’t it because the saint who continues to provide them with divine water now lives in Nanyang?
At this time, Nanyang County and Wancheng were all occupied.
Jiyang County is only about forty miles away from Wancheng.
