MTL - Mystery Makes Me Strong-Chapter 2071 Yellow Turban chaos
February 184, the year of Jiazi in the lunar calendar, the first year of Zhongping.
The Yellow Turban Uprising finally broke out.
Zhang Jiao, a Julu man, called himself "General Tiangong" and his brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were "General Digong" and "General Rengong" respectively.
They burned down government offices, killed officials, and looted everywhere.
Within a month, fighting broke out in 28 counties in seven states across the country.
The Yellow Turban army was like a broken bamboo, the prefectures and counties fell, and the officials fled, shaking Luoyang.
This is one of the most famous and largest peasant uprisings in history.
But the result was the same as other uprisings, and finally turned into a ladder for the landlord class.
Zhuo County. is very fast.
Zhang Family Manor.
"Teacher, as you expected, troubled times are here!" Zhang Fei rushed to the school excitedly after reading the list from the outside.
Wen Rensheng was teaching a dozen or so smarter apprentices.
Yes, of course he will not forget his old line.
Especially during the Three Kingdoms period, the teacher-student relationship was more reliable.
Zhang Jiao gathered his apprentices to rebel by being a teacher, as anyone who heard his title will know: "Great Virtuous Teacher".
Looking at Zhang Fei's expression, it looks very much like the expression of an urban hero who reads a doomsday novel and looks forward to the end.
Thinking about it carefully, it is very similar.
The protagonist got the golden finger, but the weather is bad; Zhang Fei is also capable, but he couldn't use it during the Taiping period.
After all, Zhang Fei is a general, not a civil servant, and he doesn't know how to govern, let alone seek officialdom.
"Calm down, Yide, sit down first, troubled times are approaching, the teacher has already expected this, this is a catastrophe for the common people, don't be excited." Wen Rensheng reminded.
"Yes, master, it's me, Zhang Fei, and Meng Lang." Zhang Fei looked embarrassed, and then sat at the side of the school.
After the two sides settled on the status of master and apprentice, master and slave, Zhang Fei treated Wen Rensheng with respect.
This is his personality.
He was also the first to change his attitude towards Zhuge Liang.
"Okay, students, the country is in turmoil and the people are scattered. It's time for us to use force. I'm here to test everyone. What should I do?" Wen Rensheng looked at everyone.
"I heard that Captain Zou is calling for a volunteer army from the village. We can join them and gain military merit." Student A was very excited.
"The current imperial court is corrupt. Even if we defect to the imperial court, we can only join forces in the end and fail to protect the environment and the people." Student B shook his head.
"Isn't it all right if we don't get along with others?"
"Then you will be squeezed out by everyone. Like Qu Yuan, the whole world is turbid and you are alone. It is impossible for us to change this world." Student B sighed.
The fact that they can still know Qu Yuan means that these students have attended schools for at least five years.
"Then according to brother Luo's opinion, what should we do?" Everyone asked one after another.
Wen Rensheng looked at the students below who were arguing, and laughed without saying a word.
"We still live here in seclusion, keep the village, and end up with the rest of our lives." Student B is obviously a Han Dynasty lying-down faction.
It's a pity that his idea is obviously wrong.
"Others are growing, we live in seclusion, now 500 people can resist 2,000 bandits, but if 50,000 bandits come, won't we be destroyed?" Someone shook his head.
"Yeah, who doesn't know that the slogan of the yellow scarves is loud, but they are actually a group of thieves who steal wherever they go. If they come to our county, we will suffer too. They won't reason with us." Student A laughed. .
Student B has nothing to say.
He sees things through, but the assertions are too negative to apply.
So people obviously don't believe it.
At this time, someone said to Wen Rensheng: "If the teacher didn't take him in, we would have starved to death on the side of the road and ended up like the Yellow Turban Bandits. Please ask the teacher to teach us what to do?"
Wen Rensheng smiled.
He will not continue to follow the big event of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
That's only controlled by people.
The essence of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in the final analysis, is still the princes fighting, raising Gu to fight, and finally winning a Gu.
And the land of Huaxia, a nearly closed environment in the east, south, west, and north in ancient times, became the best place to raise Gu.
Every time they fight to the end, a king is determined.
And if he wants to win, he must always take advantage of the situation according to the situation, cleverly use the contradictions of all parties, deal with them, develop himself, and attack the enemy.
Hearing this, he asked everyone again: "Students, do you think this yellow scarf can do anything?"
Everyone said one after another: "The Yellow Turban will definitely not succeed."
"Why is that?"
"It's very simple. The students heard the news from everywhere that the Yellow Turbans don't do production, but only know how to loot. At first, the people will follow them because of the pressure of life, but as time goes by, their team grows bigger and bigger. But how can we support it if we can grab it?" Student Yi said confidently.
Wen Rensheng nodded.
Everyone also nodded.
Seeing this, if this student B joins any prince, as long as that prince has half of Liu Bei's vision, he will be given a salary of four hundred shi and accepted as an official.
Of all the Yellow Turban forces in history, Zhang Yan ended up the best. He organized the Yellow Turbans to reclaim the mountains, which turned the bandits into a land-based separatist force.
"In this case, what should we do, do you understand?"
"Understood, hit the Yellow Turban, get the imperial court's reward, and become famous." Someone said excitedly.
Wen Rensheng nodded slightly.
Naturally, he couldn't tell these people the real strategic plan in his heart.
"Even if you become famous, it's just like the princes of today's court. How can the common people live a good life?" Student B sighed.
funeral.
In fact, the Three Kingdoms and Two Jins have already begun to have a mourning culture.
Sit down and talk about the truth, talk about the truth.
"If you don't do it, it won't change." Wen Rensheng said with a smile, "The current imperial court has ordered that all regions are allowed to organize village bravery and fight against thieves on their own. As long as we own a county, we can naturally implement our own ideas. will go back to the old ways.”
Everyone thought about it.
Wen Rensheng usually told them that their purpose of practicing military formations and learning strategy is to make their own family flourish and the second is to enable the people around them to live a better life.
The so-called up to benefit the world.
It was easy for everyone to accept.
Yes, it is easy to take the righteousness of living a good life for yourself and letting others live a good life.
If someone insists, I just want to live comfortably by myself and others are poor, so I have a sense of superiority.
He can say this, and he can think so, but if he speaks out, he will definitely not win the support and effectiveness of the majority, but will be cast aside by others.
This cannot be said on stage.
Even a hypocrite would say that the purpose of the literati governing the country is for the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment, so that everyone can have food...
I dare not say that if the scholar-bureaucrats are to live comfortably and the common people live like pigs and dogs, the common people should be cattle and horses to support the scholar-bureaucrats.
Although that's actually how it's done.
This is the difference between China and the barbarians. Everyone lives well, which is a golden signboard, although in reality, the gap between people is greater than that between people and dogs.
Since ancient times, although people were divided into four peoples, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen, no one dared to say that you, a businessman, should live like a dog and give money to us scholars for free.
Zhang Fei listened patiently, although he had long wanted to go to the battlefield and fight.
After all, Mr. Zhao's soldiers are really strong.
He couldn't wait to see their power.
In the past year, he led soldiers and horses to strangle some thieves.
They are all ruined.
After one year, less than ten people were killed or injured, and they were still caused by colds and colds while sleeping outside.
Others were infected after injury.
Most of the wounded and sick were cured by Wen Rensheng with some herbs.
The more contact he had, the more he admired the teacher.
The teacher has the talents of the world.
The housekeeper who once provoked him was simply short-sighted.
Zhang Fei heard Wen Rensheng's words at this time, and immediately got up and said: "In this case, teacher, let's join the army quickly, strangle the thieves, and then plot to guard a place, kill all those corrupt officials, and let the people live a good life." .”
"Well said, Yide, you immediately send someone to inquire about the recruitment."
Wen Rensheng ordered, and then said to the students: "You also go back immediately and prepare for the expedition. Be sure to prepare dry food, water, fodder, medicinal materials, and civilian husbands. We are ready to apply."
Zhang Fei immediately went excitedly.
He wants to use the heroes he knows to inquire about it.
at the same time.
Liu Yan, the prefect of Youzhou, ordered Zou Jing, the lieutenant of Polu, to recruit brave men from the countryside to fight against the Yellow Turbans who invaded the state.
The recruitment notice was quickly sent to Zhuo County.
Zhang Fei brought people to the street, saw the recruitment list at the gate of the city, and saw the place of application on it, and immediately went forward to register his name with the officials who guarded the list, and prepared to apply.
At this time, I saw a young man with long arms above his knees and a dozen rangers, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, who was also going to apply for the draft.
Behind the other party was a man with a red face and long beard, who was extremely mighty.
"This hero, Liu Bei of a certain family, don't know the name of the hero?"
Zhang Fei took a liking to this man when he first saw him, because he was also a ranger.
"A certain Zhang Fei has met Brother Liu, why don't you go to my manor and talk, how about we go together?"
"That's exactly what it is." Liu Bei said happily.
When he saw Zhang Fei, he knew that he was bold and rich.
And he just needed the capital to raise an army.
Soon, Zhang Fei brought Liu Bei and a dozen rangers to the manor.
After eating and drinking, he took them to meet Wen Rensheng.
"This is Zhao Shan, my respected teacher, who has the talents of the world, omniscient, omnipotent, and omniscient." Zhang Fei began to introduce the two of them sincerely,
"Teacher, this hero, brother Liu, belongs to the clan of the Han family, the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, and the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing."
"A certain Liu Bei, I met Mr. Zhao." Liu Bei bowed sincerely.
"It's easy to say, I have met Brother Liu." Wen Rensheng smiled and helped him up.
At this moment, the ranger behind Liu Bei suddenly clamored:
"Who are you, what are your abilities, can you be my big brother Liu?"
"You can't do anything wrong to a high-level person. With such an introduction from Yide, Mr. Zhao must be a great talent, and I am willing to pay this respect." Liu Bei said very seriously.
Wen Rensheng nodded.
Not to mention anything else, Liu Bei has done everything in terms of treating scholars with courtesy.
After all, there are too many clans, and he has almost no capital, so he followed Liu Bang's path.
It's a pity that Liu Bang has Liu Bang's ambition, Liu Bang's perseverance, and some of Liu Bang's ability to win over talents, but he doesn't have Liu Bang's overall view and management ability, which wasted the precious early days.
The northern Pingyuan County couldn't keep it normal, but Xuzhou didn't hold it, didn't open up to the south of the Yangtze River, and didn't win over the Xuzhou gentry, which is the best manifestation of his innate inadequacy.
"You guys, how dare you disrespect my teacher, come and compete in my manor school!" Zhang Fei was furious.
Which of the rangers was convinced, they left one after another.
Liu Bei sincerely apologized to Wen Rensheng.
"These people are all rangers in the county. They are naturally rebellious. I hope you will forgive me a little bit."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's just time to apply for the army, why don't we go together to see how the preparations are going." Wen Rensheng said.
"Okay, okay." Liu Bei also wanted to know if the other party was really capable.
So everyone came to the manor campus.
And the rangers who arrived earlier were all stunned.
Because there are rows of serious and solemn sergeants in front of them.
More than 500 people, surrounded by suspected ancient chariots.
Sword and shield players, spearmen, spear throwers, and a small number of crossbowmen, all of them are armored, and all of them are high-spirited.
At first glance, they are elite soldiers and strong generals.
With 500 elite soldiers, there is no second such powerful soldier in the county soldiers in Youzhou.
Only the soldiers under the captain who went out to fight in the fortress can have such elites.
"Mr. is indeed a great talent." Liu Bei's heart was greatly moved when he saw it.
If there is such an army formation, why worry about the uncertainty of the world?
"It's easy to talk about. In such an army formation, there are still a few commanders missing. I wonder if Brother Liu is willing to give in?" Wen Rensheng immediately wanted to make a name.
"This, Bei is naturally happy." Liu Bei agreed immediately without any hesitation.
At this time, he was still white.
How can there be so much ambition later?
He thought that relying on such a strong army, he would definitely make a lot of contributions, and then he would be able to gain a county with the help of his background.
It's just that he thought too much, and it's not easy to be a hero without money these days.
It can only be said that he is still far from the overall situation of the big man at this time.
In other words, there are still some knight-errants who don't want to compromise.
Not as good as Cao Cao, whose stature can be placed extremely low, he can kill eunuchs in order to gain fame, and he can rely on Dong Zhuo to assassinate Dong Zhuo.

Wen Rensheng then appointed Liu Bei as the deputy head of the 8th village.
Tell him to bring a group of newcomers after he has learned the training and combat of the army formation.
Outside the ten villages, after a few battles, with the military merits of the captives and the food and grass provided by the counties, they can expand.
Liu Bei readily followed.
The rangers acted as Liu Bei's bodyguards.
Afterwards, many matters were prepared within two days.
Wen Rensheng left Santun people behind to guard the manor, and designed a way to hide in the county in times of danger.
Establish a good relationship with the county magistrate early on.
Soon a group of people raised their troops and went to Jicheng, where the Youzhou government was located.
Come outside Jicheng.
Some soldiers came forward with officials to inquire, and learned that they were country braves who had come to apply for the army. After seeing their appearance and formation, they immediately recommended them to Polu Captain Zou Jing.
Polu Captain Zou Jing was overjoyed immediately when he saw the military situation of the crowd.
Wen Ren was appointed to be promoted to the official song leader immediately, and a military order was issued.
Of course, this is only a private appointment in the state and county, not an official military position in the Han Dynasty.
After all, after today's buying and selling of officials, many systems have long been corrupted.
There are many official and private appointments.
This Zou Jing is obviously a man who knows how to fight, and he didn't rush to break up Wen Rensheng's army.
If you are happy to see this strong army, and then take it away for your own use, then it's over.
There must be an infighting first.
Others spend so much money to recruit and train soldiers, but you **** them away with the prestige of your superiors, what do other townspeople think?
It must be renunciation.
