Chapter 173 Chaos
After Yangyu became a disciple of Cao Ang, he asked Cao Ang to change his name.
Yang Jun is dead, and Yang Yu is a rebel and cannot be used anymore. Cao Ang then renames him Yang Yi. A perseverant person is strong and able to make decisions. Cao Ang hopes that Yang Yu can cheer up and compares Yang Yu to joy.
A person like Yi.
After recruiting Yang Yi, Cao Ang gained a deeper understanding of the internal situation of the Yellow Turban Army.
Religion and belief can be called a murderous weapon when used. They are very powerful, but they are also susceptible to backlash. Once they are out of control, they will be like a dragon rising out of the sea and a fierce tiger descending from the mountain. Even the person who created it may be the victim of it.
system.
Zhang Jiao is the god of Taiping, but he cannot completely control people's hearts.
Cao Ang was even more determined not to use methods that were beyond the times to solve the problems of the times. He even felt that it would be good to be a warlord and fight for the world step by step.
Although Yang Yi became a disciple of Cao Ang, he was still a member of the Yellow Turban Army at this time, and because he and Zhang Rao handled the funeral affairs of the Yellow Turban Army in Guangzong City, he was considered a name in the imperial court.
Therefore, Yang Yi cannot directly join Cao Ang's team. He has to wait for the opportunity and wait for everyone to forget about him before he can truly become Cao Ang's man.
Not to mention the incident of Yang Yi and Cao Ang, Zhang Jiao died and surrendered, and Guangzong's city was destroyed. The impact was quickly revealed.
Following Zhang Jiao's order to surrender, the Yellow Turban tribes in Jizhou, including Liu Shi, Yu Changgen and other Yellow Turban commanders, surrendered to the imperial court one after another.
These people were already suppressed and beaten by the army and had no choice but to do so. People like Yu Changgen and others had already had second thoughts, so surrendering was a matter of course.
With the surrender of various Yellow Turban tribes, most of the entire Jizhou was settled.
Zhang Bao, the local general who had been entrenched in Xiaquyang, could not break out, but he followed Zhang Jiao's last wish and surrendered to Kaicheng. After Zhang Bao handed over the 780,000 to 80,000 Yellow Turban troops to Lu Zhi, he also followed his brother's example.
, committed suicide and died for the path he pursued.
Zhang Bao, the younger Zhang Jiao, is about ten years old, and his temperament and temperament are very different from that of his elder brother. He has not liked reading since he was a child, and he only likes to dance with swords and guns. Therefore, he has outstanding martial arts and is the most courageous among the three brothers. Moreover, Zhang Bao is born with a temperament.
He is honest, honest, and approachable. Everyone on the Taiping Road trusts him and is happy to serve him.
Zhang Jiao had originally thought of entrusting his fortune to Zhang Bao, but Zhang Bao was a capable general but not handsome, and was far less mature and steady than Zhang Liang, so he chose Zhang Liang.
Moreover, Zhang Jiao knew that if he died, his younger brother would definitely not survive. He would either die with him or avenge him immediately. Zhang Bao could be a minister of the army, but he could not be a member of the army.
After Zhang Bao's death, everyone in the army burst into tears, and hundreds of people followed him and committed suicide.
After Lu Zhi heard this, he was also very sad and ordered Zhang Bao's body to be collected and buried outside Guangzong City together with the bodies of Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang.
At this time, the three Zhang Jiao brothers were all dead, Taiping Road had become a rootless tree, and the court was not so afraid, so the bodies of the three Zhang Jiao brothers could be easily disposed of.
This time, the Ling Emperor managed some personnel matters and did not crush the bodies of the three men and scatter them to ashes. Instead, they buried them in their hometown of Julu County with common people's rites. This also allowed the three Zhang Jiao brothers to return to their roots.
Shortly after Zhang Bao's death, Zhu Jun, who was attacking Wancheng in the south, also recovered Nanyang County.
Jingzhou Qu commander Zhang Mancheng died in battle, and the Nanyang Yellow Turbans appointed Zhao Hong as their commander. Although Zhao Hong was not as prestigious as Zhang Mancheng, he defended against the danger and held a stalemate with Zhu Jun for several months, neither of them could win.
Seeing that Zhu Jun was still unable to win, someone in the court suggested that Zhu Jun should be summoned back to the capital. Fortunately, Sikong Zhang Wen and Shangshu dissuaded him, saying on Zhu Jun's behalf: "In the past, Qin used Bai Qi and Yan Ren Leyi, even after many years, they were able to defeat the enemy." Jun attacked Yingchuan, and because of the effectiveness of the attack, he led the army to the south. The strategy has been laid out. The generals will be changed when the army is approaching. The military strategists have taboos. It is better to celebrate the success of the holiday." This moved Emperor Ling.
Zhu Jun, who learned the news at this time, was also anxious.
However, Zhu Jun was a famous general after all. Seeing that the two sides were at a stalemate, he deliberately exposed his flaws and lured the Yellow Turban Army to attack. As expected, Zhao Hong fell into the trap and personally led his troops to raid the Han army camp. They were ambushed and the entire army was defeated. Zhao Hong also died.
After Zhao Hong's death, the Yellow Turban Army again appointed Han Zhong as its commander.
However, Han Zhong's prestige was even worse. It was already difficult for the various departments of the Yellow Turban Army to maintain control. It was only because they faced strong enemies that they managed to maintain it.
The two sides fought for more than a month.

Zhu Jun saw that Wancheng was strong and difficult to break, so he dismissed the siege of the city, set up forts, built earthen hills, and faced the city. He also sounded drums and shouted, and took up the posture of attacking the southwest of the city.
Seeing this, Han Zhong quickly deployed his main force in the southwest, while Zhu Jun led 5,000 elite troops to attack the northeast. The soldiers bravely climbed into the city. In the end, the outer city of Nanyang was defeated, and Han Zhong took to protecting the inner city.
After Han Zhong retreated to the small town, he was very frightened and asked to surrender. However, Zhu Jun refused and insisted on eradicating evil.
Han Zhong had no choice but to resist desperately.
Zhu Jun saw that the outer perimeter of the Yellow Turban Army was strong and the inner camp was pressing hard. He could not surrender and it was difficult to break out of the encirclement, so he fought desperately. Knowing that it was difficult to attack by force, he removed the encirclement, gathered his troops and entered the city, and used the move "Surround Three Ques and One". Lure Han Zhong into breaking out.
Seeing that the siege was completed, Han Zhong led his army to break out. Zhu Jun took advantage of the situation and attacked, leading his army to pursue Han Zhong for dozens of miles and killing more than 10,000 people. Han Zhong had no choice but to be bound and beg for surrender, and Wancheng was recovered.
If things only ended here, everyone would be happy.
However, Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang, was jealous because of his repeated defeats at the hands of the Yellow Turban Army. He actually killed Han Zhong who surrendered. This move immediately made the surrendered Yellow Turban Army uneasy.
The Yellow Turban Army was afraid of being liquidated, so they elected Sun Xia as their commander, rebelled, and took the opportunity to recapture Wancheng.
At this time, Zhang Jiao's surrender order had spread all over the country, and Yellow Turbans from all over the country surrendered to the army. However, the Nanyang Yellow Turbans did not believe in the officers and soldiers because of the previous killings of prisoners by the officers and soldiers, and refused to surrender.

Zhu Jun himself had no intention of appeasing him, so he attacked Wancheng again. At this time, the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army, which had been in disarray for a long time, was invincible, so Sun Xia was defeated and the Han army pursued them to Xi'e County (which governs the north of Nanyang City in present-day Henan Province). Echeng Temple) Jingshan, defeated Sun Xia's troops, killed Xia and more than 10,000 people, and the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang were defeated.
Zhu Jun made a killing and achieved great success, but his treacherous behavior directly caused the Yellow Turban Army in Nanyang, Runan and other places to lose trust in the Han court. Although they were defeated and weak, they did not surrender. Instead, he lurked in the Dabie Mountains, waiting for the opportunity.
During the reign of Emperor Ling, the Yellow Turban Army in Nanyang and Runan was not pacified.
However, no one knew how powerful it was at this time, and everyone was immersed in the joy of defeating the Yellow Turban Army.
