"Sir, the imperial court has sent troops"
"This is the news from Luoyang"
In Su Fan's territory in Donghai County, Gao Hu and other retainers of the Gao family sat around Su Fan, looking serious.
"Millions of Imperial Guards"
When Su Fan heard this, his expression did not change. In fact, he already had a guess in his mind. Historically, there were three people named Lu Zhi, and there was no change this time.
The only change may be to directly dispatch one million forbidden troops. It is really one million, not like the history of 300,000 people who dared to call one million.
The million-strong Forbidden Army is the most elite army of the Liu family. You must know that many of the Forbidden Army in this world are transferred from the border army.
Only after going through bloody battles on the battlefield can you be promoted to the Forbidden Army.
The soldiers at the bottom of the Shenhan Dynasty longed for the Forbidden Army the most. This was their supreme honor.
Needless to say, the first of all the honor of the imperial army guarding the imperial capital, and the second is treatment, which was also the best in the Shenhan Dynasty.
When you reach old age and quit the army, you will still receive part of the reward. It can be said that you can live a prosperous life in the future after quitting the Forbidden Army.
This point, what Su Fan found out, is somewhat different from history.
But think about it, this world is a world of super martial arts. The world is very dangerous. Not only must we guard against barbarians from all over the grasslands, but also there are many spirits and monsters in key mountains and rivers. Without strong strength, how can we defend the imperial capital.
The Forbidden Army was very strong, and Su Fan knew this. This was another reason why Su Fan was not very optimistic about Zhang Jiao.
Millions of forbidden troops, plus millions of border troops, are already in the court, including the general disciples.
What does Zhang Jiao have? Apart from the large number of people, his only advantage may be his own strong strength.
The Taiping Dao Yellow Turban Army, with its thirty-six-square-meter canal commander, sounds very powerful, but there are very few of them who actually have the talent of a general.
In historical novels, there are only a few, such as Bo Cai, Zhang Mancheng, and Zhang Yan. The others may have some military power, but they can only act as reckless generals who kill people. It is really useless for them to lead troops in war.
At most, they can just rely on the large number of people and rush forward in a swarm. If the officers and soldiers are not strong and their numbers are small, they may still be able to win.
Once you encounter the elite, you will be defeated.
Throughout the history of the Romance, apart from the three Zhang Jiao brothers, there are only three or five people who can fight against the government and the army and win the battle.
Without enough knowledge, Zhang Jiao alone would be helpless. Moreover, Zhang Jiao himself was not a famous general. He could defeat the army only because of his unparalleled terrifying strength.
"Sir, what should we do?"
"Can Taiping Road be blocked?"
There was a bit of sadness on the faces of Gao Hu and others. These days, although they had been receiving victory news from the Yellow Turban Army from various places.
But they always believed in the Shenhan Dynasty more. When they heard that the Forbidden Army was dispatched, their faces were a little panicked. After all, they were also members of Taiping Dao now.
If the government really pursues the case, they may also be beheaded.
Following the young master for the past two years, their horizons have been broadened a lot. Although there are many people in the Yellow Turban Army, and it is said that there are tens of thousands of troops, they all know that these tens of thousands are almost a mob.
A group of peasants who have never been trained, armed with sticks, have no fighting ability.
"This is not something you and I can control."
Su Fan shook his head. He didn't think Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army could stop them, unless Zhang Jiao alone could kill all the top masters of the Liu family and the aristocratic families.
Otherwise, it will still be very difficult.
But does Zhang Jiao really have such strength?
Can a wealthy family, the Liu family, have thousands of years of heritage that can be compared to Zhang Jiao's hundreds of years?
No one knows how many masters the Liu family has hidden for thousands of years.
"You don't have to worry, we didn't take action. Even if Taipingdao really loses, we won't have any problems."
Su Fan had this confidence. After all, he came from a noble family, and as long as he didn't rebel, there wouldn't be much danger even if he was held accountable.
And as his cultivation level gets higher, he becomes less and less dangerous.
And it seemed that Zhang Jue didn't force him, which was what made him happiest. He had always been worried that Zhang Jue would force him to send troops to attack the government, which would be the most troublesome.
"What you have to do now is to guard this place and don't let others come and destroy it."
Su Fan knew that there might be ideals in Taiping Road, but the Yellow Turban Army, most of the Yellow Turban Army, was a mixed bag, and many people committed evil, even more ruthlessly than those wealthy families.
There are hundreds of millions of Yellow Turbans, and the food and grass they need is a terrifying figure. The Yellow Turbans themselves have no territory, and they rarely have the idea of farming. Most people think that if they don’t have food, they will
Go and rob, rob cities, rob aristocratic families, rob wealthy families, and finally rob those poor people.
They are like locusts, killing no grass wherever they go.
Su Fan knew that once he was hungry, they could rob even his companions.
Whether there is a Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou, of course there is, and now Guanhai, the Fangqushuai, is near Langya.
Now we are attacking Langya County.
Xuzhou is originally a fertile land in the Central Plains. There are many aristocratic families here, and the local power is not weak.
Maybe the county soldiers are not that good, but the aristocratic families have some power in their hands.
Many aristocratic families have guards when they establish manors, there are more or less guards.
For large aristocratic families, their family guards number in the thousands, and they are all trained elites.
There were tens of millions of Yellow Turbans under Guan Hai's command, including millions of soldiers, but in Su Fan's opinion, they were completely a mob.
Without training, they were just a group of farmers who had just walked out of the fields, armed with wooden sticks and other things, and wanted to attack the county town, but in reality they were just trying to beat the odds.
In this world, not to mention the county towns, the county cities are all extremely tall. For example, Kaiyang City, the seat of Langya County, has a city height of twenty feet, and the city walls are more than ten meters thick, and there are runes on the walls.
Once the runes are activated, the city wall will become indestructible. Even if the martial arts refining warriors bombard it indiscriminately, it will be difficult to destroy the city wall.
We can only rely on siege ladders and so on to attack it.
But it is not that simple to attack a city more than 60 meters high.
Therefore, in this world, offensive and defensive battles have become more difficult and bloody.
Su Fan was not optimistic about Guan Hai. Once he failed to capture Langya County, his millions of Yellow Turban troops would turn into bandits and plunder everywhere.
Donghai County is not far from Langya, and many people under Guan Hai know about Su Fan's territory.
Maybe there is not enough food, and some of them will take risks and come to rob him of the food and grass.
