The beginning of the plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion plunged the entire world into war.
Countless rebel armies emerged from various places under the banner of "Heaven is dead, Huang Tian shall stand" and quickly occupied various counties.
Subsequently, many suffering civilians and refugees joined them, rapidly increasing the size of the Yellow Turban Army.
For a time, the world was in chaos and people were panicked.
Countless government offices were destroyed and countless Han officials were killed.
Moreover, after overthrowing the government rule, the Yellow Turban Army quickly occupied major cities and formed a separatist territory to confront the imperial court.
Players scattered all over the country have received the system's prompts.
This is the first large-scale plot they have embarked on since entering the game.
Countless people are looking forward to this day.
At the same time, it also divided the entire Han Dynasty into two hostile camps.
Yellow Turban camp!
Imperial camp!
All players must choose between these two camps within three days.
In this way, the already chaotic situation becomes even more chaotic.
You must know that players do not have their own territories like the aboriginal people or the various commanders of the Yellow Turban Army, but are distributed in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.
It can be said that players can be seen anywhere in Dahan.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and the Yellow Turban Army spread across dozens of counties in eight states.
The addition of players caused the war to spread throughout the Han Dynasty.
The most frightening thing is that the players are supposed to be the same group, and there is no interest or hostility between them.
But the choice of camp forced them to become enemies.
Moreover, there are not a few players who join the Yellow Turban camp.
The number of players joining the Yellow Turban camp did not decrease because of the final failure of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
One of the reasons is the camp’s reward for killing enemies.
Anyone who kills the enemy camp can obtain meritorious service, which can then be exchanged for various treasures, elixirs, techniques, blueprints, etc. from the Yellow Turban Army or the imperial court.
Every city occupied by the Yellow Turban Army has an exchange point, and the cities still controlled by the government also have exchange points.
The reason that attracts players to join the Yellow Turban camp crazily is that as long as the Yellow Turban Army kills people who belong to the imperial camp, including officials, powerful families, soldiers, players, and even ordinary people, they can obtain meritorious deeds.
As for the imperial camp, only players who kill Yellow Turban soldiers or join the Yellow Turban camp can obtain meritorious deeds.
Moreover, you can know the merit points obtained by some players who have already joined the camp.
Even if they kill the same number of enemies with the same strength, the merits obtained by the Yellow Turban camp are 50% higher than those by the Imperial camp.
Such a huge difference in merit values has naturally attracted countless players to join the Yellow Turban camp.
This is understandable. After all, compared to the imperial court, the Yellow Turban Army is still at a disadvantage, and everyone knows the result.
If you want to attract players to join the Yellow Turban camp, you must have enough benefits.
This is one of the reasons.
In addition, being in the imperial camp, the hierarchy is strict, and you are subject to many restrictions and restrictions. You must also abide by the laws of the Han Dynasty and the decrees issued by the imperial government.
The Yellow Turban camp has almost zero restrictions on players. As long as you join the Yellow Turban army and don't attack friendly opponents, it doesn't matter what you do.
This has led to many ambitious players joining the Yellow Turban Army, acting like bandits, burning, killing, looting, and doing everything.
It is precisely this barbaric growth method that allows the Yellow Turban Army to rapidly develop in size and territory, threatening the governments of many places.
These players who join the Yellow Turban camp actually have the same idea as Qin Yuan.
That is to take advantage of this time to seize territory and wealth and accumulate original assets.
As for after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the imperial court was weak and the princes were divided, who would have time to settle accounts with them!
Moreover, as long as they had strong strength at that time, other forces would not easily provoke them.
Of course, this is only a choice between individual or small groups of players.
Most guild forces divide their players into two parts, one part joins the Yellow Turban Army, and the other part joins the imperial camp.
Rely on the Yellow Turban Army to snatch wealth, occupy territory, and accumulate strength.
Players who join the imperial camp take the long-term route.
You can use your meritorious deeds to exchange for official positions from the imperial court, and join forces with princes like Cao and Liu in the future.
In addition to camp selection and merit redemption, a variety of modes are also enabled.
One of them is the opening of the teleportation array, which can realize teleportation across thousands of miles of states and counties.
However, the price of transmission is a bit expensive.
Only county or state cities have large-scale teleportation formations, and there are no cities below the county city.
And only between the same camp can teleport to each other.
Teleportation requires permission from the city at the landing point before teleportation can be carried out.
In addition, interstate teleportation is worth one tael of gold per person, and cross-county teleportation is worth 10 taels of silver per person!
Although this teleportation array is very convenient, it is very expensive.
Many players may not have earned more than a few taels of gold from the time the game was launched until now!
It is estimated that only some powerful forces can afford it.
Moreover, it is not very feasible to use the teleportation array to teleport troops on a large scale, carry out strategic sneak attacks, and transfer battlefields.
Unless you invest a lot of gold and silver at any cost.
"Only county-level cities have teleportation arrays!"
Qin Yuan stood on the top of the city, listening to Liu Bowen's narration behind him.
He does not belong to the category of players.
Therefore, he did not respond to the prompts the players received.
However, there are many players who have taken refuge with him, and it is easy to get information about the players.
After all, every player knows it, so this information is not a secret and has little value. Few players will hide it.
Among the information obtained from players, what Qin Yuan cares about most is naturally the large teleportation array!
Although I had obtained some teleportation runes or small teleportation arrays from the Yellow Turban headquarters before.
However, the maximum number of people sent at one time cannot exceed one hundred.
If you just teleport a few important people, it won't have much impact.
But during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were wars everywhere. In fact, the only thing that could play a role was the army.
On such a large-scale battlefield, the strength of a few people alone cannot affect the overall situation.
And the territory of this mythical world is simply not comparable to the real world.
Although the Yellow Turban Uprising affected the entire Han Dynasty, the main battlefield was in Jizhou.
Even though Jizhou is adjacent to Youzhou, if we did not rely on the teleportation array but relied on walking or riding horses to rush from Youzhou to Jizhou, the Yellow Turban Rebellion would have been over by the time we arrived!
"We must occupy a county and seize a large teleportation array!"
Qin Yuan said seriously.
Although he has been developing in one direction, he has always paid attention to the changes in the Central Plains.
At the same time, although he is a major channel for the Yellow Turban Army, his prestige among the Yellow Turban Army is not high.
Even if Zhang Jiao's three brothers died, he would not be able to take over and lead the Yellow Turban Army.
Therefore, you must build your reputation during this period and establish prestige among the Yellow Turban Army.
"The first choice is Shanggu County City!"
Liu Bowen thought for a while and said.
This is also the county town closest to them.
Moreover, their relationship with Gongsun Fu was not good.
If we were to attack other counties, wouldn't we be looking for distant places at the expense of the near?
"Now that the Yellow Turbans are everywhere, I guess all the government offices are having a headache!"
"The Yellow Turban Uprising broke out very suddenly, and the defensive forces of local governments were not strong!"
"This is our chance!"
Liu Bowen said again.
"However, before we fight against the outside world, we must first settle down at home!"
Qin Yuan murmured.
Ever since he learned about the transmission price of the teleportation array, Qin Yuan has become even more eager for wealth.
If he wants to go to Jizhou, he must use the teleportation array.
And the number of troops dispatched this time will never be less than one million people!
A cross-state transmission is worth a million taels of gold.
If it is transmitted multiple times, it will really cost money!
"Order the Yellow Turban Canal Commanders and leaders of the counties in Shanggu to attack the cities affiliated with the government!"
"First draw Gongsun Fu's attention away!"
"Let's deal with the enemies in Pingyun County first!"
Qin Yuan said, "According to normal historical inference, this time the Yellow Turban Rebellion will not end until the end of the year. We have a lot of time and we are not in a hurry!"
"Well, Gongsun's forces have been keeping an eye on us for the past few months, and they are indeed restricting us quite a lot!"
"Now that the Yellow Turban Rebellion is coming, even if they want to keep an eye on us, they don't have the energy!"
"More importantly, we should still be friendly forces with them!"
Liu Bowen smiled.
Qin Yuan is not like a player who needs to choose a camp and cannot change it at the same time.
But he was in the Han camp and his heart was in the Yellow Turbans.
Moreover, except for a few senior officials at the Yellow Turban headquarters, no one else knew about this.
Even his nominal boss Gongsun Fu never thought that Qin Yuan had already joined the Yellow Turban Army.
When the Yellow Turban Army is raging, even if there is a gap between them, they must first let go and deal with the common enemy.
Gongsun Fu would never have thought that Qin Yuan would stab him in the back at such a critical moment.
Now, the purpose is to make Gongsun Fu relax his vigilance towards Qin Yuan.
Otherwise, once Qin Yuan's army moves, Gongsun Fu will definitely get the news and concentrate his forces to deal with Qin Yuan.
It will be very difficult to capture Shanggu County City at that time.
Moreover, Gongsun Fu could also ask for help from Gongsun Zan.
Once Shanggu County cannot be taken, Qin Yuan will be firmly pinned to Shanggu County and unable to go to other battlefields!
The teleportation array is very important. It is not only used to teleport troops, but also for strategic layout, and to join friendly forces in other areas to support friendly forces or allow friendly forces to send troops to assist!
It can be said that the opening of the teleportation array will make every county and city a battleground for military strategists.
Large-scale wars in each region must be fought around the county and city!
"Lord, there are many players from the player forces in the city asking to see you?"
At this time, a military general came over and said to Qin Yuan.
"not see!"
Qin Yuan refused without any hesitation.
He can guess what these players are thinking without having to guess.
That's the choice of camp!
This is a choice that every player must make, but there is a three-day deadline.
Smart players will not choose a camp at the first opportunity, but will observe the surrounding environment to see if there are enemies from different camps.
Today, there are more than one million players in Pingyun County, and the number of related indigenous people is no less than five million!
Even if the camps choose to split the difference, each side will have at least three million.
This is enough to break out a large-scale war.
However, the environment in Pingyun County is rather special.
They are not like players in other regions who can choose their camp according to their own ideas.
The reasons for choosing a faction before do not apply to them.
If they want to continue to survive in Pingyun County and continue to make money, they will have to look at Qin Yuan's face!
Rather than looking at the face of the imperial court or the Yellow Turban Army.
Even though Qin Yuan is an official of the imperial court, they still need further confirmation.
After all, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, many officials joined the Yellow Turban Army.
In other words, some officials have long been spies trained by the Yellow Turban Army.
Compared with other regions, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is considered a carnival, and countless players are looking forward to it. However, for the players in Pingyun County, they have only one idea, and they only want to make money!
If they want to see Qin Yuan, they just need to get an accurate answer.
If Qin Yuan is in the imperial camp, they will choose the imperial camp.
Even though Qin Yuan is now a court official, no one knows his origins.
Therefore, the chance of joining the Yellow Turban camp is not small.
"Are the troops in each city in place?"
Qin Yuan asked.
"Judging from the time, it should be almost the same. The two generals Han Xin and Bai Qi have already dispatched troops to various cities in Pingyun County!"
Liu Bowen said.
"Okay, let them stand still for these three days. Whether they are players who join the Yellow Turban camp or the imperial camp, as long as they do not endanger the control of the city, leave them alone!"
"In addition, let Zhao Shuhuai lead the Yellow Turban Army in Pingyun County to plunder the players' shops and caravans!"
"There are Yellow Turban uprisings in other places. If our Pingyun County is too peaceful, we will behave abnormally!"
Qin Yuan said.
"OK!"
Liu Bowen nodded, "If we just do this, the business model established in Pingyun County may collapse!"
As a top military advisor, Liu Bowen was fully responsible for internal affairs.
Naturally, he is very aware of Qin Yuan's approach.
First, let the Yellow Turbans riot and rob the players' belongings.
In doing so, the player faces two choices. One is to see that the government is unmoved, so he joins the Yellow Turban camp and robs the wealth.
The second is to join the imperial camp and fight against the Yellow Turbans.
Afterwards, Qin Yuan will take off his disguise and attack players in the imperial camp.
As for those players in the Yellow Turban camp, they must obey the orders of Qin Yuan, the great Yellow Turban channel. The wealth they grab will also fall into Qin Yuan's hands.
In this way, almost all players were harvested.
The wealth gathered is probably no less than 100 million taels of gold!
Of course, if he does this, Qin Yuan will definitely become the target of verbal criticism from players.
The commercial city established at the same time will also decline.
"Even if you don't do this, sooner or later it will be the same!"
Qin Yuan sighed softly.
Once he joins the Yellow Turban camp, he will have a clear positioning. Players will no longer be able to gather in Pingyun County for business and trade as before, and will withdraw sooner or later.
Moreover, it is impossible for the imperial court to sit back and watch Qin Yuan, the Yellow Turban rebel, continue to grow in power. Governments from all over the country will also unite to blockade Pingyun County.
All customs clearance documents issued by the Pingyun government will become invalid.
Even all caravan goods leaving Pingyun County will be confiscated by the government.
You must know that commercial channels are an important part of the commercial development of Pingyun County. Once this link is disconnected, Pingyun County will no longer be able to maintain its current prosperity.
Qin Yuan just took advantage of the situation to harvest a wave of leeks before Pingyun County fell.
