Open horns
As the initial group PK activity at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Uprising can be said to be a major historical event. If the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty is a large-scale chicken-eating game in history, then this Yellow Turban Uprising is definitely the first epic copy after the game is launched. As a chaotic and neutral BOSS, the Yellow Turban Army was also a terrible existence for the Eastern Han Dynasty at that time, Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, Yu Eight Prefectures rebelled, there were hundreds of thousands of large and small wild monsters, and the Eastern Han Dynasty, as a large guild in the chicken eating game, was almost scared.
However, the Yellow Turban Army really just came and went in a hurry, and as soon as the blood bar was lit, it was violently beaten by the Eastern Han Dynasty chicken eating players, and finally the copy was permanently shut down. So, what exactly caused the epic copy of the Yellow Turban Army to be instantly cleared?
In fact, the Yellow Turban Army did cause very terrible pressure on the imperial court at the beginning, and before it could raise an army to rebel, the capital city of Luoyang had already arrested thousands of yellow turban army lurkers, and the eunuchs in the palace even became yellow turban troops. Subsequently, Emperor Hanling demanded that all localities arrest the Yellow Turban Army, especially Jizhou, and even more arrest the bandit leader Zhang Jiao of the Yellow Turban Army.
Zhang Jiao knew that the matter was exposed, and he refused to sit still, so he killed Jizhou and captured Jizhou, and the people from all over Jizhou also responded to Zhang Jiao, and Jizhou soon became the base camp of the Yellow Turban Army.
How terrifying was this situation at the time? Luoyang was simply submerged in the wave of rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army, and the disciples of the Yellow Turban Army everywhere raised troops to rebel. To exaggerate, as long as the Han Ling Emperor opened the map to see the war situation, then almost all around luoyang was the Yellow Turban Army, and Luoyang was almost an isolated city.
When Emperor HanLing saw that this was not possible, he hurriedly appointed his brother-in-law He Jin as a great general, and led the world's soldiers and horses, and also asked him to command the Yulin army to garrison Luoyang, and around Luoyang, there were also eight guandu lieutenants to guard The dangerous passes of Hangu Pass, Guangcheng, Mengjin and other places.
Luoyang was made into an iron barrel by the Han Ling Emperor, which made the Han Ling Emperor breathe a sigh of relief, but this was not enough, he still had to mobilize troops to attack the Yellow Turban Army, so Emperor Fusong, Zhu Juan, Lu Zhi and other generals were sent to lead troops to quell the rebellion. However, the Yellow Turban Army was in full swing at this time, and the three zhonglang generals really could not defeat the Yellow Turban Army.
The Yellow Turban general Bo Cai not only defeated Zhu Juan at Yingchuan, but also besieged Emperor Fusong at Changshe. Zhang Mancheng of the Yellow Turban Army also led an army to capture Wancheng and beheaded Taishou Chugong. Zhang Jiao not only occupied Guangzong City, but also beat Lu Zhi, who had raised troops to fight back, and dong Zhuo, the Zhonglang general who succeeded Lu Zhi, was no better, and he was beaten and fled.
For example, the Yellow Turban Army in Runan defeated Taishou Zhao Qian, the Yellow Turban Army in Guangyang also killed the Youzhou Assassin Shi Guoxun, and Liu Xu, the King of Anping and Liu Zhong, the King of Ganling, who were relatives of the Han Dynasty, were also captured by the Yellow Turban Army of Julu, and the Eastern Han court had to spend money to redeem the two princes.
At the same time, the yellow turban army killed officials and rebelled more and more fiercely, and there were many rebels in various places under the banner of the Yellow Turban army, and some simply set up their own banners to claim hegemony, and even in remote areas such as Yizhou, there were rebels calling themselves "Wudou Rice Road".
At this time, the Yellow Turban Army can be said to have achieved extraordinary victories, but most of these victories were tactical victories and could not be transformed into strategic victories at present. The Lack of communication between the Yellow Turbans everywhere was basically in a state of fragmentation, and it was a huge mistake not to link the occupied areas together.
Although they were defeated, because they always controlled the main traffic routes, they could continuously obtain supplies and soldiers from all over the world. The Yellow Turban Army is not so lucky, this Yellow Turban Army is dragging its family and mouth in battle, often 200,000 or 300,000 or even 400,000 or 500,000 people, relying on the grain of a few counties alone is certainly not enough to eat, so it can only be arson to grab grain.
With the use of this set of plundering tactics of the Yellow Turban Army, the supply problem can certainly be solved, and even the people of the villages along the way can be wrapped up as bandits and thieves. But by doing so, they are destroying the hearts and minds of their own people. Now the common people did not support the Yellow Turban Army, and they were afraid that the Yellow Turban Army would come over, and instead joined the side of the imperial court one by one, so that the resistance of the Yellow Turban Army was magnified.
Moreover, the rise of the Yellow Turban Army was an out-and-out threat to the powerful gentry and clans everywhere, even if they were to protect themselves, they would take action, so the local armed forces could mushroom like mushrooms.
Previously, the Han Ling Emperor had asked all localities to count weapons, summon rebels to assist in the war, and also release the Tianxia Party members, ask the Minister of State to donate war horses and crossbows, and nominate the descendants of the ministers and generals and people with strategies to go to the Bus Office for interviews.
At this time, many chicken-eating players at the end of the Han Dynasty joined the battlefield, for example, Cao Cao, who was a knight lieutenant, got the opportunity to lead the army to battle at this time, and Sun Jian, known as the "Tiger of Jiangdong", was also recruited by Zhu Juan at this time.
And our Uncle Liu Huang is no exception, in addition to successfully pulling down Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's two partners, he also got the support of Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, and organized a rebel army to defect to Lieutenant Zou Jing.
It can be said that the Han army has now been strengthened unprecedentedly, and the addition of a large number of "rebel armies" composed of local powerful forces has greatly enriched the combat effectiveness of the Han army, and the counter-offensive of the Han army is also in full swing. Bo was the first unlucky one, the Yellow Turban Army he led was defeated by Emperor Fusong with a fire attack, and the reinforcements of Zhu Juan and Cao Cao were also killed one after another, and Bo cai was killed and collapsed.
Zhang Mancheng, on the other hand, was simply killed by The Nanyang Taishou Qin Jie, and the remnants were held by Zhao Hong as the main commander to defend Wancheng. Bo Cai himself fled all the way to Xihua and Peng Tuo to join, but was unexpectedly defeated by Emperor Fusong and Zhu Juan, and both Bo Cai and Peng Tuo died in the rebellion. The remnants of the Yellow Turban Army wanted to flee to Wancheng, but unexpectedly Wancheng was also attacked by Zhu Juan and Sun Jian, and was eventually completely destroyed.
The fate of the Yellow Turban Army everywhere was similar at this time, either completely annihilated or hidden in the mountains and forests, and only the Yellow Turban Army, which occupied Guangzong City, was still fighting. Unfortunately, Although Zhang Jiao was quite proficient in martial arts, Zhang Jiao's body could not hold up, and Zhang Jiao, who was suddenly seriously ill, lost the ability to command the Yellow Turban Army, and died of illness in Guangzong City soon after.
His brother Zhang Liang held guangzong city, and was finally attacked by Emperor Fusong, who himself died in battle. And Zhang Bao did not go anywhere, in Quyang was defeated and killed by the Han army, and more than 100,000 Yellow Turban troops were completely destroyed.
