Chapter 29 Yellow Turban Rebellion
Zuo Feng's face is also full of red light, and his mouth has never been closed.
Dong Zhuo was also constantly flattering behind Zuo Feng, and Zuo Feng was coaxed with a smile.
Jia Ronghuaxiong and others also followed Dong Zhuo to send the angel all the way out of the camp. When the angel left, he said to Dong Zhuo, "Lord, please rest assured. I will definitely say good words for you in front of the saint. Lord Dong has made more contributions in the border."
Dong Zhuo kept thanking Zuo Feng.
After the angel was far away and could not see their figures, Dong Zhuo's flattering expression immediately disappeared. In exchange for his usual majestic face, he turned to the generals behind him and whispered, "Go back to the camp!"
Looking at Dong Zhuo's bad face, Jia Rong knew that Dong Zhuo must be unhappy. At least he was also a battlefield general, but he was constantly flattering a eunuch, and no one could stand it.
Although Dong Zhuo was appointed as the assassin of Bingzhou, Dong Zhuo did not give up his control of his original army. In Dong Zhuo's view, any official is false, and only military power is the most real.
Dong Zhuo did not go to Bingzhou to serve. Although he was the assassin of Bingzhou, the Han court's battle against the Qiang people has not ended. The battlefield is not only in Gaoping County. This time, the whole Xiqiang rebellion, the Qiang people wantonly attacked the city and plundered the land on the Han Dynasty, and the people on the border were displaced. In order to quell the rebel Qiang people, the army stationed in the border is about There are 200,000 people.
The Eastern Han Dynasty stationed troops in the Qiang people's rebellion for more than ten years, and the military expenditure was as high as more than 24 billion yuan, and the financial resources of Liangzhou were exhausted by military expenditure.
The army is stationed in the border and is wary of the Qiang people. In the past ten years, the Qiang people have revolted three times. The Han army has fought with them hundreds of times, but they can't completely eliminate the Qiang people. Because the Qiang people are basically cavalry, getting on the horse is the soldiers, and getting off the horse is the people. The army is very mobile, and it is difficult for the Han army to find its main battle.
Although there were also cavalry in the Han Dynasty, they were in the minority after all. Although there were not many cavalry such officers as Dong Zhuo in Xiliang, who were born and grew up in Xiliang, they could not be compared with the Qiang people.
As a result, the war turned into a protracted war.
Although the border is in war, it is an opportunity for generals. What the generals hope to encounter is war, and only war can make them famous. The Qiang people's chaos has lasted for ten years and has achieved many famous generals, such as Huangfugui, Zhang Huan and Duan Ying, who have achieved prestige because of the Qiang people's chaos.
The people who suffer the most are the lowest class. They not only have to send the strong men in their families to the army, but also have to complete heavy taxes every year, especially the people of Liang and the two prefectures. After such a long war, their people's livelihood has withered.
In the following days, the army will be stationed in Gaoping County, and the daily thing is to constantly train people.
During the period, Jia Rong told Li Ru that he wanted to go back to Lijia Village, but Li Ru said that he could not go back until the army was completely settled down. Although Jia Rong was very dissatisfied with Li Ru's statement, he still respectfully agreed that Li Ru could not afford to provoke him.Since the last time Li Ru talked to him and then knew his identity, he has been careful about everything he does, and even pays attention to his usual words.
If he can't go back to Lijia Village, Jia Rong will no longer think about this matter for the time being. In the subsequent training of soldiers, Jia Rong stepped up his pace. Compared with the other five soldiers, his own soldiers have great shortcomings, and their experience in battle is not as good as those of those hundred soldiers in other departments.
Soldiers will suffer great losses if they don't combine battle arrays on the battlefield. While Jia Rong focuses on training the cavalry, he does not forget to teach the infantry battle array training.
During this period, Guo Yan continued to tutor Jia Rong about the knowledge of war. The soldiers' battle array on the battlefield was taught by Guo Wei to Jia Rong. Jia Rong studied very seriously. Although he came from the future and understood the trend of history and had a certain superiority, he was also a beginner in war. After all, he learned it in writing. It is very different from the actual application.
Although the soldiers are still young soldiers in the past, after two wars, they have all grown up. Jia Rong is also constantly increasing his training, which is more demanding than the training of later armies. He has an attitude of not training these soldiers into elite soldiers.
The soldiers also silently followed Jia Rong's training, and did not disgusted with Jia Rong's behavior. They also knew that only when they had a strong ability could they have more chance to survive on the battlefield and saw the cruelty of the war, and no one would joke about their lives.
The cavalry has also made great progress under Jiang Yu's training. After a period of hard training, Jia Rong can also make simple actions such as chopping on the fast-running war horse.
Jia Rong did not return to Lijia Village in the end, but buried his endless thoughts for Xiuer in his heart.
The New Year's bell rang again, and it has been nearly two years since Jia Rong came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
In this year, the Emperor of Han issued an order to change the year name to Zhongping, and this year is the first year of Zhongping.
In the first year of Zhongping, there was a great drought across the country, and the people in many places had no income. The Han Emperor not only did not reduce taxes, but also increased the burden on the people, because the Battle of Xiqiang was not over, and the Han Emperor had to continue to maintain the expenses of the battlefield.
The people have no way out, and the matter of changing their children and eating can be seen everywhere. In order to live, many people have sold their fields to large scholars at a low price.
In February of the first year of Zhongping, Zhang Jiao, a Taoist of Taiping, said, "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand; the year is Jiazi, and the world is good." He led the believers to revolt. The insurgents were all wrapped in yellow scarves, so they were also called yellow scarf soldiers.
Zhang Jiao has founded the Taiping Religion for a long time. He often travels around the world to draw charms to treat the people, and it is also free to treat the people. He has a high reputation among the poor people and believes in hundreds of thousands of people. He uses his right to speak in the hearts of the people to divide the believers of Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan and Yu into three. Sixteen parties, more than ten thousand people in Dafang and 6,000 or 7,000 people in Xiaofang. Each party has a canal commander, and he will command him.
Zhang Jiao called himself "General Tiangong", and his brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were "General of the Land" and "General of Rengong respectively", leading the believers to kill the states and counties.
The poor people who had no way to go joined the uprising army one after another. The yellow scarf soldiers were like snowballs, and their strength was getting bigger and bigger. In just one month, the number of yellow scarf soldiers increased from more than 300,000 to more than 700,000.
The yellow scarf soldiers burned the government all the way, killed officials, and robbed everywhere. Within a month, there were wars in seven states and 28 counties across the country. The yellow scarf army was like a broken bamboo. When it arrived in the state and county, the county watched the wind and fled, and the Han court was shocked.
The Han Emperor hurriedly summoned General He Jin and asked him to organize troops to enter the pass around Luoyang, guard the capital, and set up gates around Luyang City.
At the same time, the edict was given to the states and counties to recruit soldiers and eliminate the yellow scarf rebels.
The news spread to Gaoping City. Jia Rong was discussing with Guo Wei how to train the cavalry to fight. Hearing the news of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Jia Rong sighed in his heart that it was time to come. The Yellow Turban Rebellion in the first year of Zhongping broke out as recorded in history, and the lives of the people would not be peaceful in the future.
Guo Yan was shocked to hear about the Yellow Turban Uprising. He did not expect that anyone would dare to openly provoke the majesty of the Han court.
A month later, the order of the Emperor of Han came, appointing Dong Zhuo as the general of Zhonglang and the governor of Hedong, and sent troops to the Yingchuan area to suppress the yellow scarf soldiers.
Hedong Taishou is naturally more down-to-earth than Dong Zhuo's previous Bingzhou governor. At this time, the assassin was just a false post in the Han Dynasty. To put it bluntly, he did not even have much power to be the Taishou. Until after the Yellow Turban Uprising, in order to strengthen the rule of a state and county, the Hanting set up the position of state herdsman (the evolutionary version of the assassin) and ruled a state. Only then did the assassin have the real power.
After Dong Zhuo received the order, he immediately reorganized the team and appointed Hua Xiong, Guo Wei, Niu Jin, Li Chu and Jia Rong as lieutenants, leading the five troops and defeating the army.
Jia Rong has also become a lieutenant. Looking back on how many ups and downs and hardships he has experienced since he came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and now he has become a military lieutenant. Now the soldiers he leads have grown up. What they lack is only the continuous training on the battlefield, and the teenagers in Lijia Village have also matured. It's not the lively teenager who surrounded himself on the training ground in Lijia Village two years ago.
Three days later, Dong Zhuo led the army to the place of Yingchuan where the yellow scarf soldiers were rampant.
On the way to Yingchuan, Jia Rong saw that many people's houses were burned along the way, and the fields were also ruined into wasteland. In many places, dozens of miles, people could not be met. The whole Han Dynasty revealed a scene of decline.
The three armies slowly went to Yingchuan. At this time, a horse ran to the middle army, turned over and dismount from the horse. He saluted to Dong Zhuo and said, "General Qi, I found a yellow scarf ten miles ahead, and there are about 10,000 people."
After listening to the news of the whistleblower, Dong Zhuo immediately issued an order to stop the three armies, and then summoned Hua Xiong, Guo Yan and other generals.
After the five lieutenants arrived, Dong Zhuo said, "I found more than ten thousand yellow scarf thieves in front of me. I don't know who dares to fight, beat out the prestige of our army, and let the yellow scarf thieves see the power of our Xiliang Army."
After listening to Dong Zhuo's words, Hua Xiong did not think about it and immediately stepped forward and said, "General, I am willing to go."
Listening to Hua Xiong's heroic and confident voice, Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction and said, "General Hua deserves to be the first person in our army."
After being praised by Dong Zhuo, Hua Xiong scratched his head happily and didn't know where to put his hands.
Seeing Dong Zhuo's eyes looking at him, Jia Rong stepped forward and said to Dong Zhuo, "General, I'm willing to go. I'm going to beat the yellow scarf and promote the prestige of our army."
Guo Yan watched Jia Rong come forward to ask for help, and also expressed his willingness to fight against the yellow scarf to Dong Zhuo.
When Dong Zhuo saw that the generals were active and enthusiastic, he laughed and said, "With the help of your generals, it must be easy to break the yellow scarf."
However, Dong Zhuo did not give an order, but asked Li Ru behind him, "I don't know what the son-in-law thinks?"
