Chapter 631 The Yellow Turbans run out of food, the final counterattack?
"Brother Dou...is really, really brave."
Everyone present was so frightened that they broke into a cold sweat when they saw that Dou Jiande dared to stand up at this time and question the decision of 'Holy Master' Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Niujiao, Zhang Baiqi and other die-hard fans of Zhang Jiao looked at Dou Jiande angrily, and their eyes couldn't help but become more and more fierce.
"Brother-in-law, why are you so bold?"
Cao Dan, who was beside Dou Jiande, was shocked when he saw that his brother-in-law dared to question Zhang Jiao, and he quickly went up to try to drag Dou Jiande back.
However, on this occasion, Cao Dan did not dare to move too much, so naturally there was no way to drag Dou Jiande back. At this time, Dou Jiande remained motionless, his eyes filled with determination.
"Good Master, since we, the Yellow Turban Army, represent the people of the world, even though we are at odds with the aristocratic families of the world, we will attack them sooner or later, but we have to wait and see!"
"Although our army now owns half of the Han Dynasty, this half of the country is really superficial and does not have the potential to crush the Han army. If we attack the aristocratic family at this time, we will force the aristocratic family to surrender to the Han Dynasty!"
"This will do a lot of harm to our Yellow Turban Army. I hope the wise master can think twice!"
Even if sharp eyes were stabbed at him, Dou Jiande still wanted to speak out his heart, because he could feel that the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao was really thinking about the people of the world!
Therefore, he did not want the Yellow Turban Army, which was now at its peak, to be involved in the abyss of the battle with the aristocratic family, and thus be attacked on all sides and lose its current advantage.
In fact, when Dou Jiande first sent people to contact Zhang Jiao, he only regarded him as an exploitable target. After all, he and Zhang Jiao had the same goal, which was to eliminate the big man!
It's just that one is a family feud and the other is for the world.
At least, that's what Dou Jiande thought before he really knew Zhang Jiao.
It wasn't until they met for the first time and had a night talk by candlelight that Dou Jiande realized that he had underestimated Zhang Jiao in front of him. He could feel that Zhang Jiao was really thinking about the people of the world.
In this conversation, he also understood that this old man with white hair had very strong ideals and ambitions in his heart.
Dou Jiande believed that he already loved the people like a son, but compared with Zhang Jiao, he still felt inferior.
It can be said that it is precisely because of Zhang Jiao's strong personality that even heroes like Dou Jiande are impressed by him.
The next development of things was just as Dou Jiande expected. It was under his hard restraint that ordinary people armed with their own weapons did not lose their rationality and followed the established plan!
Otherwise, they would have been deceived by the prosperity in front of them and caused earth-shaking damage to the entire Central Plains!
From then on, Dou Jiande truly believed that the old man in front of him was not an ordinary rebel like Chen Sheng or Wu Guang, but a man who truly cared about the people of the world!
Therefore, Dou Jiande, who had always been cautious and rarely spoke carelessly, spoke his true feelings in front of everyone.
…………
Perhaps Dou Jiande, who was the commander of Jizhou Qu, played a leading role, and many knowledgeable people from the Yellow Turban Army also expressed their thoughts.
"The great virtuous master Xu Shouhui also agrees with Dou Qushuai's view and believes that it is not appropriate to offend the world's noble families at this time." Xu Shouhui, one of the thirty-six square qushuai of the Yellow Turban, also stood up at this time and said with a serious face.
"Chen Youliang thinks what Dou Qushuai said makes sense. It's really not appropriate to make too many enemies at this time." Chen Youliang, who had just been moved by Zhang Jue, also came out of the crowd at this time and urged Zhang Jue: "Great virtuous teacher, think twice!"
"Jiang Xian..."
…
Since Dou Jiande also had a high prestige in the Yellow Turban Army, after he took the initiative to provoke the situation, many small leaders who had a good relationship with him also stood up to oppose it.
Of course, their objection was purely to give Dou Jiande face and to recognize his abilities. Since he said so, they must be inseparable!
In addition to this reason, it is also their own fear of the aristocratic families. They feel that the current Yellow Turban Army does not have the advantage to crush the aristocratic families, and some do not dare to confront the aristocratic families so quickly.
Seeing that so many people were against him, and that he was the one who took the lead, and was very fond of Dou Jiande, Zhang Jiao not only did not get angry, but instead felt infinitely happy in his heart.
After all, few people know that Dou Jiande is also one of his candidates for the Yellow Turban successor.
Not only does he have great insight, but he is also able to think about the people!
Of course, Dou Jiande was one of the candidates Zhang Jiao had in mind before he met Zhu Yuanzhang. With the arrival of Zhu Yuanzhang, his status was also greatly affected!
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang was also a person who thought about the people, but the only difference between him and Dou Jiande was that Zhu Yuanzhang had a decisive determination to kill.
Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang's own ability is not comparable to that of Dou Jiande!
But no matter what, Dou Jiande's courage to stand up and speak out against him today is enough to prove his loyalty to the Yellow Turban Army.
Although Xu Shouhui and others came forward after him, this also proved that they saw the essence of the matter. Although their loyalty may not be enough, their ability is still beyond doubt, and they will definitely be the backbone of the Yellow Turbans in the future.
"Everyone, of course I know what you are talking about." Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhang Jiao sighed immediately, and then said a little lonely: "Do you think this is what I want to do?"
"If it hadn't been for the last critical moment, I wouldn't want to do this, but now the Yellow Turban Army no longer has the power to choose."
"Don't have the right to choose?" When everyone heard Zhang Jiao say these words, they were suddenly shocked, and a terrible thought appeared in their hearts at the same time.
"If the great sages and good teachers are forced to choose this method to deal with it, then there is only one possibility. The Yellow Turban Army will run out of food!"
"Yes, you are right."
Zhang Jiao saw everyone's shocked expressions and instantly guessed that they had figured out the truth of the matter, so he continued: "In another month, there will be no food supply here in Jizhou!"
"And it's not just Jizhou. If I remember correctly, Yunji in Yuzhou, Huang Chao in Qingzhou, Gao Yingxiang in Yanzhou, and Zhang Shicheng in Yangzhou are not much better than us here in Jizhou!"
"So if we don't take action now, when the Han army reacts, we Yellow Turbans will never have a chance again!"
