In a great defeat, the Yellow Turbans not only ruined Jizhou, but also almost ruined Zhang Jiao's hope of exterminating the Han Dynasty.
The victory of this battle was equivalent to the Battle of Changshe in original history, and it formed a turning point in the war situation.
In original history, after the Battle of Changshe, the Yellow Turban Army suffered numerous casualties. The Yellow Turban Army on the South Road was severely weakened. From then on, the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan, Jingzhou and other places could no longer make trouble.
But in the current battle of Yecheng, the Yellow Turbans have almost lost all their fighting power on the northern route, and the Yellow Turban forces in the northern states can no longer make any big waves.
The Yellow Turban spiritual belief in the great sage Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turban recognized war god Chi You were all defeated. The morale of the Yellow Turban army everywhere in the world must be in chaos. The military morale is in chaos, even if the Yellow Turban army has more strength, it is of no use. And the opposite of the Yellow Turban
Yes, once the Han troops all over the world hear this news, their morale will definitely rise and their previous despondency will be swept away.
While Jizhou was experiencing successive battles and the Han army was establishing a chance of victory, the rest of the states in the world were not at peace either, and the wars in each state began to undergo new changes.
In Youzhou, Liu Bang and Qin Zheng faced each other in Yuyang County with Peng Yue and Zhang Han as their generals respectively.
However, Liu Bang still has the remaining forces of the Yellow Turban Cheng Yuanzhi lingering on, while Qin Zheng is eager to stabilize the newly occupied counties. Therefore, the two forces are still very restrained for the time being, although there are small conflicts involving hundreds or thousands of people.
Continuously, but not a single battle involving tens of thousands of people broke out.
But it is conceivable that whether Liu Bang takes the lead in solving the remaining Yellow Turban forces in Youzhou, or Qin Zheng straightens out the occupied six counties of Youzhou, neither side will give up. By then, a new round of war will surely begin
break out.
Bingzhou, Bingzhou has the Yellow River to the south and mountains to the east and west. Although it is not surrounded by mountains on all sides like Yizhou, it can definitely be said to have the advantage of both mountains and rivers. Qin Qiong mobilized 30,000 troops to strictly guard Huguan. With the help of the geographical advantage,
Even if Wang Qing had an army of 200,000, there was nothing he could do.
Wang Qing was unable to break through Qin Qiong's defense, while Qin Qiong had few soldiers and could only defend, but not take the initiative to attack. Therefore, the situation here was relatively stalemate.
However, as Su Lie's army is about to arrive, it doesn't take much to know that the situation here is about to change.
With Wang Qing's ability, without the superiority of troops, it would be difficult to face either Qin Qiong or Su Lie alone, let alone the two of them working together.
The land of Qingzhou has completely become a world dominated by the Yellow Turbans and the rebel kings, and the power of the Han Dynasty has become useless.
The Yellow Turban forces headed by the Yellow Turban Lord General Zhang Bao occupied the Qingbei area, while Guo Wei, Dou Jiande and other anti-Han alliances occupied the Qingnan area. The remaining Han forces could only survive between the two parties.
In the land of Yanyu, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun used 120,000 troops and an allied force of 80,000 aristocratic families, a total of 200,000 troops to fight against the nearly six soldiers of Renggong General Zhang Liang and Zhang Jiao's other adopted son Zhang Dingbian.
One hundred thousand troops.
Fortunately, the powerful families in the Central Plains had strong support for Huangfu Song when he needed money or food. The Han Dynasty was able to hold on until now.
However, the behavior of the Central Plains family also completely angered Zhang Liang and others. After that, as long as the Yellow Turbans caught the family members, they would kill them all regardless of the reason. For a time, the power of the Central Plains family was once again greatly damaged, but this also intensified
This strengthened the family's determination to help the court put down the Yellow Turbans.
In the land of Yangzhou, Hong Xiuquan's development originally went smoothly, and his army was unstoppable wherever it passed, but it finally encountered Waterloo in the land of Wujun.
Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's status in this life was countless times stronger than that in his previous life. He directly became the eldest son of the Zhu family in Yangzhou. In addition, Emperor Hongwu's ability continued to show, and he was quickly cultivated as the heir by the head of the Zhu family.
Although Yangzhou was poorly developed during the Three Kingdoms period and was slightly desolate compared to the states north of the Yangtze River, the Zhu family, as one of the four major families in Jiangdong, was naturally powerful. Therefore, Emperor Hongwu's starting capital was
It's a huge difference compared to the previous life.
Although Zhu Wuzhang was ambitious, he also hoped that the Yellow Turban would consume all the great man's heritage and create opportunities for himself to succeed in the future, so he also secretly helped the Yellow Turban.
But as a child of a noble family, he was naturally on the opposite side of the Yellow Turbans. Therefore, when the time was almost right, Zhu Yuanzhang had already decided to raise troops to respond to the imperial court and fight against the Yellow Turbans.
On the one hand, the last trace of vitality of the big man has been almost consumed. For Zhu Yuanzhang, the Yellow Turbans have lost their use value. On the other hand, the performance of the Yellow Turbans is a bit shocking, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also a little worried that the Yellow Turbans can really reverse the situation.
God has done it.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had just formed a rebel army and was ready to send troops, but before Zhu Yuanzhang had time to set off, Hong Xiuquan took the lead in rebelling. First, he established himself as the king and occupied counties wantonly. Then, Hong Xiuquan even sent Shi Dakai to attack Wu County.
.
Shi Dakai was one of the top generals during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and his abilities were naturally good. He naturally understood the principle of using all his strength when a lion fights a rabbit. Along the way, he used all his strength to deal with any resistance forces and did not dare to be careless. But the general
Being cautious does not mean that the people below are the same as the general.
Since its inception, the Taiping Army has fought continuously and won a series of victories, and has become a proud army. From the generals to the lower-level soldiers, they do not take any resistance in Yangzhou into consideration.
Shi Dakai led an army of 50,000 to attack Wu Commandery, but he never thought that just after entering Wu Commandery, he had already received the news that all 8,000 troops in the vanguard had been wiped out. He finally regained the morale of the army, but he never thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was not a simple man. Even though
Shi Dakai had a strong army and was unable to fight for a long time. Sometimes, Zhu Yuanzhang would even seize the opportunity to defeat him slightly.
In the north of Jingzhou, after completely capturing Nanyang, the Southern Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Mancheng sent troops to Xiangyang. On the other hand, Zhang Mancheng personally led the army to attack Xuanyuan Pass, intending to directly threaten Luoyang, the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty.
But he never thought that Zhang Mancheng sent troops in two directions, but neither direction went smoothly. First, the troops marching into Xiangyang were blocked from the new field by the new Jingzhou Shepherd Liu Biao, and they were unable to advance or retreat.
Zhang Mancheng himself faced off against Ding Yuan, the former governor of Bingzhou who was sent by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to defend Xuanyuan Pass. As a result, Zhang Mancheng had just arrived at Xuanyuan Pass and was defeated. Generals Zhao Hong and Han Zhong were even defeated by Lu Bu Er.
Killed with an arrow.
In the land of Jingnan, after Xiang Yan completely digested Lingling County, he followed Fan Zeng's suggestion and began to expand to the other three counties in Jingnan.
At this time, Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, was still fighting against the Yellow Turbans in the north of Jingzhou, and did not care about the land in the south of Jingzhou. For a time, the three counties of Wuling, Changsha, and Guiyang were all in danger.
