Chapter 306: Leaving the Central Plains (4)

four months later

Guangzong

Hua Hua Hua——

The sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder was rolling.

"Great Master, do we still have hope?"

"Nine months, just nine months, all our branches in various places were wiped out by the imperial court, and only our headquarters here is still holding on."

"A centipede insect is dead but not stiff. A big man is not something we can shake."

Zhang Jiao was lying on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the heavy rain outside the window.

Failed, failed again, Master, I failed you, even if I changed my doctrine, I still failed.

"Great Master, please tell me, what should we do?"

"Prophet, the food in the city is about to run out, but Huangfu Song outside the city is eyeing him."

"We only have more than 300,000 people, but Huangfu Song has more than 20,000 people. There are more than 300,000 civilians fighting against more than 20,000 elites. It is impossible to defeat them. We are finished, wuwuwu!"

The canal commanders on Taiping Road kept wailing. This storm came and went in a hurry.

The Han Dynasty was unable to save millions of refugees, but if it suppressed millions of refugees, it would be easy.

An army of one million people was wiped out in less than nine months.

Zhang Jiao recalled the past sages of Hongyan Tao, and it seemed that only the Red Eyebrow Army persisted the longest.

Shen Tu Sheng's uprising with an army of 300,000 was suppressed in three months; Zhanghe's uprising with an army of 100,000 was suppressed in six months; Zhang Jiao's uprising with one million soldiers was suppressed in nine months.

Is our Yellow Turban Army too weak, or is it that our Red Eyebrow Army is too strong? What is the problem?

Zhang Jiao kept reflecting in his heart.

"Take Ning'er and run away. The farther you go, the better." Zhang Jiao stroked Zhang Ning's little head, leaving his last words before passing away.

"Daddy!"

"Great Master!"

The people of Taiping Road, who were already worried about the situation, immediately lost their last courage to resist when they saw Zhang Jue died of illness.

"The only solution for now is to surrender to the imperial court and beg the imperial court to grant us peace," a Qu commander said desperately.

"The imperial edict is in order, the imperial edict is in peace!" Another Qu Commander yelled.

"I am also doing it for the sake of my brothers. If I don't give the order, everyone will die."

“Han Ting cannot be trusted!”

"But do we have any other choice?"

"A true man would rather die in battle than surrender to the enemy!"

While everyone was arguing, Qu Shuai, who was already unsteady, led his men to open the city gate.

"Follow me!" Commander Qu of the Yellow Turban Army shouted loudly towards the Han army, hoping to be rewarded by the imperial court for his role in leading the way.

However……

"Kill all the Yellow Turban thieves, whether they surrender or those who stubbornly resist!"

"I will use their heads to build a temple in Beijing!"

Huangfu Song gave the order indifferently to more than 20,000 elite soldiers of the Han army.

We must use blood to intimidate the leaders of Guizhou and make them understand that as long as they dare to rebel, this is the fate they will face. In this way, they will not dare to rebel!

"The sword must be stronger than fire, the grass must be stronger than spear, and people must change their species!"

"Don't let even a moth thief go!"

Tens of thousands of Han soldiers rushed into the city. The Yellow Turban Army Commander Qu Shuai who had just opened the city gate to lead the way was also killed by a Han soldier to increase his military merit.

Not only the Yellow Turban Army, but also ordinary people in the city were massacred, and the entire Guangzong City was massacred.

"Holy girl, run quickly and run to the east. As long as we reach the sea, the Han army will be unable to do anything to us." A devout believer protected Zhang Ning, put the little girl on the horse and said to her:

"Saint, hold on tight to me, I will take you out of this hell on earth."

Later, under the protection of more than a hundred devout believers, Zhang Ning fought his way out of the weak spot surrounded by the Han army and escaped.

At this moment, the Han army was immersed in the joy of plundering the people in the city.

"The moth thieves occupy Guangzong, and you were not killed by the moth thieves. It means that you have a good relationship with the moth thieves, so you must be the moth thieves' accomplices, so you must die!"

"Don't kill me, I am a good citizen, I am willing to surrender, please give me peace, please give me a chance to be a dog, ah!"

A senior member of the Yellow Turban Army knelt on the ground and begged to surrender, but his throat was cut by a Han cavalry saber shortly after.

"I'm just a businessman, forced to become a thief, don't kill me, ah!"

"I was forced, woo woo! Wow! -"

Some civilians and merchants were also slaughtered, their heads were cut off, and then yellow scarves were wrapped around their heads, which was also a military achievement.

"Collect the heads of the moth thieves and pile them up in the capital!" Huangfu Song was a traditional scholar-official who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic at heart, so he was very disgusted with the rebel thieves. To a traditional scholar-official like him, these yellow scarf thieves were heinous crimes.

of sinners.

"If you are not loyal to the king, kill! If you are not patriotic, kill! If you are not filial, kill! If you are unkind and righteous, kill!"

More than 300,000 Yellow Turban troops were slaughtered, and their heads were piled outside the city into a mountain of human heads.

Countless pairs of eyes were staring at Huangfu Song, filled with resentment, curses, regrets, and fear.

Looking at the heads of these hungry people, Huangfu Song felt filled with a sense of accomplishment in being loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

Learn the art of literature and martial arts, and bring your goods to the imperial family!

Huangfu Song did it. He was a true Confucian scholar, a scholar-bureaucrat who respected the emperor and was patriotic.

When Huangfu Song was busy visiting the capital.

Luoyang

Yuan Mansion

Dong Zhuo knelt at the door of Yuan's mansion, just hoping to see Yuan Wei.

A few months ago, he was dispatched by the imperial court to Jizhou to suppress the Yellow Turban bandits. He originally thought it would be a good job to gain military glory.

But who knew that Guo Dian, the governor of Julu, was a selfish nobleman.

In order to prevent the newly arrived Dong Zhuo from taking credit from him, the Yellow Turban thieves were deliberately blocked in the city, preventing Dong Zhuo from having the opportunity to annihilate the Yellow Turban thieves in a field battle.

Obviously Dong Zhuo was Guo Dian's boss in name, but Dong Zhuo couldn't command Guo Dian at all because Guo Dian was a nobleman.

In the end, the army was defeated. Since the imperial court had lifted the shackles of the party, it did not dare to punish Guo Dian, a son of the gentry, for the time being. As a result, Dong Zhuo became the scapegoat again.

Guo Dian, who disobeyed military orders, was not only not punished by the court, but instead was praised by the court for his perseverance in fighting despite repeated defeats.

"Winning the battle is the credit of your aristocratic family, and losing the battle is the responsibility of our humble family. Does this big man still have the law of heaven? Does he still have the law of the king?! I, Dong Zhuo, do not accept it!"

"One day, if I, Dong Zhuo, gain power, I will definitely kill you all! Kill them all! Kill them all! Ahhhhhh!!!"

Dong Zhuo roared angrily in his heart, clenching his palms into fists, filled with hatred for the wealthy family.

However, while hating him, he maintained his last trace of calmness. On the first day after he was released from prison, he went to visit the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third Duke, hoping that the Yuan family would consider him Dong Zhuo as his disciple and former official.

, help him Dong Zhuo again.

Finally, he was allowed to enter Yuan's mansion and met Yuan Wei.

"Recently, the Qiang people in Liangzhou have rebelled again. The imperial court sent Zhang Wen to exterminate the Qiang thieves, but Zhang Wen is a rotten scholar who doesn't know how to march and fight. He just went to get gold for his qualifications, so he still needs a few lieutenants.

Assist him if you wish

I intend to go to Liangzhou to suppress the Qiang people. I can recommend you to the court and let you come back." Yuan Wei said lightly. He was almost the same as the previous Wang Guang. He also seemed indifferent to fame and fortune, had no children, and regarded Dong Zhuo as a son.

A chess piece.

"I, Dong Zhuo, will never forget the great kindness of the Yuan family. If I have the opportunity, I must repay it well, otherwise I, Dong Zhuo, will die an untimely death!" Once again receiving help from the leader Yuan Wei, Dong Zhuo kowtowed to Yuan again and again.

Family thanksgiving.

Dong Zhuo's two biggest benefactors in his life were Wang Guang of the Wang family in Liaodong and Yuan Wei of the Yuan family in Runan. I really don't know how to repay such kindness.
