Chapter 913 Qingzhou Yellow Turban is not so eager to learn
In a plain area somewhere in the Heishan Mountains, hundreds of millions of men and horses from the Guan Hai tribe and Zhang Bai's cavalry converged.
There was not much to say about the meeting between Guan Hai and Zhang Baiqi. They were not talkative. They just got to know each other and discussed the follow-up actions.
Such a simple style of conduct made Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army who came here specially, speechless for a while.
At this time, the results of the Qingzhou-Hebei War had reached the ears of the Black Mountain Army. Everyone from the leader Zhang Yan to the ordinary generals were shocked. No one expected that the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans could have such powerful strength without saying a word.
At this moment, the guy who was jealous of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban's food, grass, ordnance, and had any ideas, immediately shrank back, and did not dare to think of any wrongdoing.
The powerful strength of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans has frightened the top leaders of the Black Mountain Army. No one wants to offend such a powerful group of colleagues for no reason. Do you think your life is too leisurely?
But when Zhang Yan saw with his own eyes the elite level of the millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turban Qingqi, as well as the iron-blooded evil spirit unique to only elite troops, he had no other thoughts in his mind, except that he wanted to entertain the distinguished guests as a landlord.
Fortunately, Guan Hai was not an eccentric person. On the contrary, he had a bold personality and easily got along with Zhang Yan. After a few glasses of Qingzhou fine wine, they began to call him brothers.
If he didn't have this kind of ability or charisma, Guan Hai wouldn't have been able to become the leader of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, and he and Zhang Yan have a lot in common.
Especially in his spare time, several self-proclaimed and brave Montenegrin generals, as well as Zhang Bai's cavalry generals, encouraged him to compete. Guan Hai unceremoniously showed off the powerful strength of a first-class late-stage general, defeating dozens of them with one person.
After all the generals of the Black Mountain Army and Zhang Bai's cavalry, the atmosphere among several families was unprecedentedly harmonious.
Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, was particularly lively. Whenever he had the opportunity, he would catch Guan Hai and his generals asking questions, pretending to be like curious babies.
I am really curious, how did the Qingzhou Yellow Turban develop to its current level?
Since the main force of the Yellow Turbans was destroyed, the Montenegrin Army has definitely taken the top spot among the sporadic Yellow Turbans in various places.
Zhang Niujiao, who followed Zhang Yan at the time, was the most generous among the thirty-six Yellow Turbans. He was also considered the main force of the Yellow Turbans. He was powerful and had a large number of people, and it was easy to attack states and plunder counties.
Even if the main force suffered heavy losses later, and even Zhang Niujiao died of illness, when Zhang Yan led his people to Heishan, he had a population of several billion and an army of over one billion. Compared with the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans under Guan Hai's command,
It is much stronger, this is an indisputable fact.
Qingzhou had long been beaten to pieces by that time, and the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were simply a bunch of rogue bandits plundering everywhere.
The Montenegrin Army is much better here. The Montenegrin Mountains stretch for millions of miles, crossing the two states of Bingyou. No matter how complicated and difficult the mountains are, they can still barely supply the tens of billions of troops and civilians that the Montenegrin Army has expanded.
It can be said that in terms of starting points, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and the Black Mountain Army are not on the same level at all.
But after so many years, the Montenegrin Army is still struggling with food and survival issues. From time to time, they have to go down the mountain to rob and improve their lives. At the same time, they also have to deal with attacks from nearby princes and forces, and their life is quite miserable.
However, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have undergone earth-shaking changes during this period. Not only did they change their previous rogue bandit style and become a sluggish bandit, they also accumulated a very rich foundation in just a few years. This time, they even easily defeated 200 million Jizhou soldiers.
The Montenegrin Army could only look back on the enemy's invasion and be envious and jealous.
Everyone is a Yellow Turban. Why is it that the Black Mountain Army is getting harder and harder, while the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are blooming like sesame seeds?
Zhang Yan is not a mediocre person. Now that Qingzhou Yellow Turban has developed, there is no point in lamenting. Let’s ask how Qingzhou Yellow Turban develops and grows.
After all, he was the leader of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou. Although Guan Hai was famous for his martial arts, it didn't mean that he was stupid. He immediately realized what Zhang Yan was thinking.
This is not an unspeakable secret, and Guan Hai didn't hide it much. While drinking and communicating with Zhang Yan, he briefly introduced the development process of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and even explained some of the details.
"What, the development of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to its current level is the result of the vigorous use of Taiping Taoists?"
It didn't matter, but Zhang Yan was shocked, with a face full of disbelief.
As one of the successors of the Yellow Turban force, it is natural to know what Taiping Taoist is.
It can be said that the Taiping Taoist masters, the magic monks in the Yellow Turban Army, played a huge role in why the Taiping Taoist advocates were able to respond to the eight states with great enthusiasm.
Zhang Jiao started his business with healing talisman water. Taiping Taoist took advantage of the large number of people to maximize the role of talisman water. Only then did Zhang Jiao raise his arms and call for eight states to respond, and tens of billions of yellow scarves rose up.
If there were not the help of a large number of Taiping Taoists, and Zhang Jiao did not have the art of cloning, how could he spread his influence to an area of hundreds of millions of miles in just a few decades?
It can be said that the Taoist master of Taiping was not only the doctor of the Yellow Turban Army, but also the leader in the ideological field of the Yellow Turban Army.
However, with the fall of Zhang Jiao, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army was destroyed, and most of the Taiping Taoist masters were also surrounded and killed by the imperial army.
During the period when the small groups of Yellow Turban troops remaining in various places had their tails between their legs and dared not hum, the leaders basically did not attach much importance to the remaining Taiping Taoist masters, and even secretly eliminated them in order to prevent the Taiping Taoist masters from having too much influence in the army.
The situation on the Montenegrin Army's side is almost the same.
Zhang Yan is indeed capable, and he also controls tens of billions of Yellow Turban troops, which can affect the situation of some states. It can be said that he is a prince, and naturally he does not want anyone in the army who can shake his absolute rule.
After so many years, the Taiping Taoist masters in the army have basically been identified. Even if there are still fish that slipped through the net, they saw that the situation was not good and left early. It can be said that their traces have disappeared from the Black Mountain Army.
Zhang Yan was privately quite proud of this, but he never expected that Taiping Taoist Master, whom the Yellow Turban forces did not need at all, was the main contributor to the rapid development of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.
"What, you don't believe it?"
Seeing Zhang Yan's unbelievable expression, Guan Hai curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Not only are there hundreds of thousands of Taiping Taoist masters in the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, they even have courses to train Taiping Taoist masters in schools across the country!"
Speaking of this, he smiled and said: "According to what the big leader said, the number of Taiping Taoists is still too small at the moment. If it could be increased several times, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans would not be stuck in two counties until now. In fact, It is because there are not enough talents at hand that it has seriously slowed down the development of the Yellow Turban collar!"
Zhang Yan became even more depressed after hearing this, and at the same time she was also very curious. She asked directly: "This is also the biggest curiosity in my heart. The Qingzhou Yellow Turban is so powerful, why are they still nestling in the land of two counties? At least they want to occupy the entire Qingzhou." Come on, you should have this strength!"
"Not to mention the entire Qingzhou, even including Youzhou, it won't be a problem!"
Guan Hai's face was full of pride, his face softened and he said helplessly: "It's just that the big leader has extremely high requirements for the development and control of the territory. He clearly stated that all Yellow Turban territories must have great development potential and must be tightly controlled!"
Seeing Zhang Yan's puzzled face, he explained with a smile: "The so-called development potential does not mean how vast the area is or how fertile the land is, but that there must be enough professional talents and qualified management personnel. According to the current situation of Qingzhou Yellow Turban Leader,
The model is developing rapidly and cannot hold back the yellow scarf collar!"
"As for the strict control of the territory, I can't explain it clearly at the moment, but the big leader is very disdainful of the management methods of the places controlled by the princes. He thinks that there are too many loopholes. As long as there are suitable opportunities and means, everything can be done
Easily causing all kinds of troubles, this is not the result he wants!"
Zhang Yan looked confused, feeling as if she was listening to a book from heaven.
However, Guan Hai looked solemn, and it didn't seem like he was fooling him. It was obvious that Qingzhou Yellow Turban's development model and philosophy were not something he could understand at the moment.
Since you don't understand, don't worry too much. Ask him what he can understand first.
"Brother Guan, can you explain more clearly how those Taiping Taoist masters who are good at making healing talismans helped the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans develop rapidly?"
Zhang Yan smiled bitterly and said: "I know what these Taiping Taoists are capable of, but I can't figure out what role they have. I'm really curious in my heart!"
Guan Hai was also very patient, and he also knew that it would be difficult for Zhang Yan to understand the importance of the Taiping Taoist Master by relying on oral speech alone. Fortunately, behind the millions of light cavalry he led, the logistics and transportation personnel who followed him had enough finished products as examples.
Although it is not reliable to say that the Yellow Turbans in the world are one family, as a member of the Yellow Turban system, it is understandable that he and Zhang Yan are naturally close. I also hope that the Black Mountain Army and Zhang Yan will get along better and better.
To be honest, the current situation of the Black Mountain Army is beyond his eyes. It is far worse than the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.
Guan Hai took Zhang Yan to the logistics and baggage camp. Not to mention the large amount of food and baggage carried in the camp, Zhang Yan was shocked by the huge talisman carts.
After he knew that these carts were all talisman carts made by Taiping Taoists, they could reduce their weight through talismans, and they could run like flying even when fully loaded, and could fully keep up with the advancing speed of the field army.
, I was shocked beyond measure for a moment.
When Zhang Yan learned that the talisman car was just the simplest handiwork of the Taiping Taoist master, and that many production tools in the Yellow Turban territory had used talismans to greatly improve work efficiency and effects, his mood suddenly became mixed.
I don't know what to say.
Guan Hai ignored Zhang Yan's thoughts and only stayed in a plain somewhere in the Heishan Mountains for three days. He immediately set up camp and returned to Qingzhou with Zhang Bai's cavalry.
Based on his intuition as a first-class high-level military general, he always felt that Zhang Baiqi was a bit mysterious, as if he was hiding something, but he had to rush back to Qingzhou first and didn't have the energy to pay attention to it at the moment.
