These Xianbei troops were a little more troublesome. They didn't understand why Liu Zhuang had to store so much food. But it didn't matter. Tuoba Yun believed in his own judgment and, as the leader, ordered his men to stop worrying and do it immediately. Liu Zhuang calculated carefully. He had arranged marriages with Tuoba Xianbei and the Lu family, asked them to store more food and grass, memorized the topography of Mayi, and had several drinks with the civilian captains of the Beidi camp who were dissatisfied with the status quo. He gradually became friends with them and memorized the topography of the Huang family to see if he could seize the file recording "Profane Priests" during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. He had completed everything he should and could do, and even exceeded his task expectations. All human efforts have been made, just wait for destiny. According to Han etiquette, the bride and groom should not meet before the wedding on February 15th. Tuoba Yun simply gave himself a few Xianbei war horses and asked him to ride back to Baima Pavilion and call on 550 peasant soldiers to be ready for battle after the Lantern Festival. In the last dozen days before the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Liu Zhuang also practiced the third-level hunter's [Aiming Shooting] and [Counter Shooting] hard, making final preparations for the upcoming chaos. ------------------------------------- February 2, the seventh year of Photosynthesis, Jizhou. At this moment, the Han Dynasty seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, there were undercurrents, especially in Jizhou. For some reason, all the yellow cloth in the market was sold out, and a large number of civilians wore yellow scarves and worshiped a strange statue: He was wearing magnificent armor, with golden double-headed eagles decorated on his shoulder armor and chest, a strange crown made of leaves on his head, a hideous thunder claw on his left hand, and a blazing divine blade in his right hand. A large number of believers wearing yellow scarves gathered together, slaughtering chickens and sheep to worship their new god, Huang Tian. It would be fine if this kind of sculpture only existed in one or two villages, but the current situation is that the entire Jizhou is densely packed with these golden statues.
In Jizhou, Weijun, and Yecheng, even a temple to Huangtian was built! Hundreds of people from nearby communities came to worship the new god, and an endless stream of Huangtian believers filled the streets of Yecheng. "The great and wise teacher Zhang Jue has arrived!" Suddenly, a solemn and majestic voice, like thunder, broke the silence of the temple, and a large number of believers stood fanatically on both sides of the road, welcoming the arrival of their leader. Accompanied by the sound of uniform footsteps, the first to enter the temple were fifty elite Yellow Turban soldiers. All the soldiers were strong and sturdy, with an average height of meters. In the Han Dynasty where the average height was meters, they stood out from the crowd. All of them wore black armor with heavy military crossbows on their waists, and held shields and halberds in their hands. They were very majestic - these people were all halberd soldiers from the Jizhou Military Region, but they resolutely joined Huang Tian's camp. Behind these soldiers were ten Yellow Turban warriors with even more terrifying figures. Another name for them was Thunder Warriors. They were so tall and burly that their figures were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. They were as tall as two meters and four meters tall, and stood like giants among the cheering crowd of believers. Wearing yellow Taoist robes over pitch-black armor and tall yellow hats on their majestic faces, the eyes of the ten thunder warriors were like a chaotic thunder, with ferocious electric currents crackling in the corners of their eyes, accompanied by bright lightning. The waists of these giants are equipped with a ferocious serrated sword and a thunder crossbow that can be used with one hand. Those swords are as long as meters, even taller than an ordinary person. Behind the ten thunder warriors were three noble fairies standing on a carriage, waving to the believers. The three sisters had almost identical stunning faces, with hands as soft as catkins, skin as white as cream, delicate eyebrows, and beautiful eyes. Their sleeves fluttered like flowing clouds and water, and their hands were raised high as if they were waving their hands in command. The three sisters exude a sacred, noble and mysterious aura. The bright yellow Taoist robes outline the three sisters' graceful and attractive bodies with perfect curves that make one's blood boil. Their snow-white and delicate skin is faintly visible under the bright yellow silk. Exquisite thin chains forged with gold decorate their slender necks, white clavicles, delicate wrists and ankles, highlighting the extremely respected status of the three women. "Bo Cai, is your child's condition better? Here is the new magic water, three times a day, remember to let her take the medicine on time." "Chu Yan, how many chapters of Taiping Yaoshu have you learned? You are a rare genius in the world. Your family has monopolized the magic resources, so you can't learn Confucianism. It doesn't matter. I can teach you better." "Wang Liang, it seems that your broken leg has been completely reattached. How is it? Did my magic work?" Zhang Jue looked at the cheering people with her beautiful face and showed a refreshing smile, which made everyone feel like they were in spring breeze. She was very humble in front of her loyal believers and could even accurately call out the names of all the believers and remember the stories of each of them. "Thank you, Great Sage Master! My child's illness has been cured after drinking the magic water!" "Thank you, great and wise teacher! You gave me food to eat, gave me land to farm, and saved me from becoming a slave to the powerful!" "Great and virtuous teacher, tell me, where should we go? How many should we kill? I am willing to go through fire and water for you, even if I have to die!" A large number of believers enthusiastically stretched out their arms and surrounded the three sisters as they entered Huang Tian's temple, with only endless fanaticism and worship in their eyes. "The time has not come yet, so be patient for now." Zhang Jue smiled and calmed the fanatical crowd. Surrounded by everyone, he entered the temple house, had dinner today, and discussed the uprising. The Han Dynasty implemented a separate table system. All guests had a table and a set of dishes. Although everyone was in the same room, they ate their own food.
Zhang Jiao sat in the middle, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao's two sisters sat at the first seats on the left and right respectively, and the ten Thunder Warriors sat at the lower seats on the left and right respectively. A total of thirteen people were having dinner in the room. Zhang Jue was the first to raise his glass and toast the other twelve people. After a round of drinking, everyone began to discuss the uprising on March 5th of this year. The original plan was that everyone would rise up in Weijun, Henei, Yingchuan and Nanyang counties at the same time to form an encirclement of Luoyang. When the Han Emperor sends troops to attack Luoyang, we will directly trigger the Yellow Turban Rebellion of Henan Yin! Let Henan General Ma Yuanyi lead the rebel army and cooperate with our internal and external forces deployed in the officialdom of Luoyang to directly capture Luoyang, which is empty of troops, capture the Han Emperor, and subvert the world. The more they talked, the happier and more excited they became. When Zhang Jue drank the second glass of wine, his snow-white shoulders drooped slightly, and he spread his slender hands on the table. He looked at his twelve comrades with tenderness and compassion, and with a simple sentence, he stirred up a thousand waves in the peaceful dinner. "Some of you betrayed me." Chapter 29: The Blue Sky is dead, the Yellow Sky shall be established Zhang Jue's words caused a huge uproar. The expressions of the two sisters and the ten Thunder Warriors changed drastically, some were excited, some were shocked, some were angry, some were worried, some of them even dropped their wine glasses on the table with a bang, and the rice wine spilled all over the table and the floor. "Seal the gate! Don't let anyone escape! Sister? Who is the traitor? Tell me, I will kill him now!!!" Zhang Liang was so angry that his hair stood on end. He was the first to stand up from his seat and ordered the temple to be blocked in a very emotional manner. Although the three sisters looked exactly the same, their inner personalities were completely different. "Yes, Great Sage Master, someone among us betrayed you? Who is this person?" A Thunder Warrior with horns on his head looked around the room in astonishment, his tall and burly body trembling slightly because of shock. He looked around at his comrades who had been with him day and night, and couldn't believe that someone among them had betrayed the Great Sage Master and Huang Tian. "Impossible? Great Sage Master, you have been kind to all of us. How could any of us betray you?" The second Thunder Warrior couldn't believe that a traitor had appeared among the group they had been living with day and night. He stared at Zhang Jue's sad face in astonishment. "It's not me, it's not me! Great Sage Master, you saved my whole family's lives. For you, I am not afraid of death. How could I possibly betray you?!" The third Thunder Warrior tried his best to prove his innocence. The banquet of thirteen people suddenly became chaotic. Everyone looked at each other with astonishment and suspicion. They all wanted to prove their loyalty in front of the most respected Great Sage Master and find out the potential traitor. Zhang Jue slightly opened his red lips, ready to say the name of the traitor. The other Thunder Warriors also leaned towards Zhang Jue, except for one person, who had a guilty and frightened look on his face. Like a wild beast encountering an enemy, he leaned back, as if this would allow him to stay out of the matter. "I intercepted a secret letter from Yecheng to Luoyang. Why did you betray me...Tang Zhou?" As soon as Zhang Jue finished his sorrowful words, twelve pairs of eyes turned to look at Tang Zhou, who was also a Thunder Warrior. When the two-meter-five giant saw that his identity was exposed, he pulled out his Thunder Crossbow at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, and pulled the trigger on Zhang Jue, shooting a deadly crossbow bullet filled with the power of thunder at her neck! No, it was not a crossbow at all, but a real lightning! The terrifying roar of thunder was like a thousand birds screaming in the room! "clang!" Zhang Jiao waved his hand calmly, and with his slender hand, he pushed away the arrows wrapped in lightning, deflected its flight path, and made it fly into the sky. Its power was so terrifying that one arrow pierced through the thick beams, blew up the roof, and disappeared into the high night sky like a firework, leaving a dim starlight passing through the broken tiles and splashing onto Zhang Jue's beautiful body. "Support the Han Dynasty! Kill the traitors!!!" Tang Zhou's eyes were bloodshot. He poured the wine in the cup into the eyes of the Thunder Warrior on the left. He also overturned the small table and the food to hinder the Thunder Warrior on the right. Then he mobilized all the muscles in his body and charged towards Zhang Jiao like lightning! He was so fast that he disappeared instantly, leaving only two cracked footprints on the wooden floor. The sturdy and powerful body and the heavy and solid black iron armor did not slow him down at all. The whole picture of charging was full of violent beauty. He suddenly pulled out the serrated sword wrapped in thunder with his right hand, and summoned two illusory divine arms to restring the crossbow in his left hand and aim at Zhang Jue's heart again. I can win. I am no longer an ordinary person! I drank nineteen bowls of talisman water and was given supreme divine power by Huang Tian. My height increased from meters to meters. I have two hearts and three lungs. My blood flow rate, lung capacity, and nerve reaction speed are far beyond that of ordinary people! And my muscles and bones have been fully strengthened! The psychic power of the thirty-third heaven is active in every cell of mine to adapt to the physical activity that is several times that of ordinary people! The three Zhang Jue sisters still look like mortals and are not Thunder Warriors at all!
Zhang Jue looked at his disciple tenderly and sadly. He actually used Huang Tian's power to deal with Huang Tian's angel. He was like a golden thunder, exploding in front of him! For a moment, delicacies flew everywhere, fine wine splashed, and the clanging of metal and miserable wailing resounded through the sky! Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao stood up suddenly. The other nine Thunder Warriors reacted a little slower, but they also drew their swords to protect the Great Sage Master. However, when they looked closely, they found that Tang Zhou had been subdued by Zhang Jiao and fell to his knees! His right arm was bent behind his body, and the whole thick arm was broken by the slender hand. The scream just now was made by Tang Zhou. The crossbow and the saw sword were thrown aside, and the rolling lightning on the sharp blades gradually dissipated and disappeared. Even the Thunder Warriors could not see how Zhang Jue killed one of them instantly and defeated him. "Tang Zhou, you are just a Thunder Warrior mass-produced by Huang Tian, and I am His Feathered Guards, His Imperial Guards. Each of His Imperial Guards will receive His customized services. My God will create and enhance certain traits based on each person's unique genetic potential. Each of His Imperial Guards is unique and a work of art that is ingeniously crafted. The gap between us is as huge as the gap between you and mortals." Zhang Jue's golden eyes flashed with the power of thunder. "See? Female guards have always existed." "Tang Zhou! Why did you betray us!" Zhang Liang was so furious that he went up and slapped him, knocking out two of the Thunder Warrior's teeth and making his entire face red and swollen. "I have never been loyal to you, so how can I talk about betrayal! I was originally a pawn that your majesty inserted into your cult! My family members who were saved by you were all fake!" Tang Zhou saw that not only his identity as a spy was exposed, but the assassination plan also failed, so he simply gave up the act. "Your Majesty has seen all your plans clearly! Surrender! If you thieves surrender now, I can persuade His Majesty to give you a way out. Go to the border of Liang and Bing and guard it for the rest of your life!" "absurd!" Zhang Liang was filled with anger and slapped her again. She was so delicate, but she was able to knock out a Thunder Warrior with just one slap. "Something may have happened in Luoyang. No wonder we couldn't contact Henan's commander Ma Yuanyi five days ago, and the messenger we sent out also disappeared. Now it seems that he may have really been in trouble. Sister, what should we do now?" Zhang Bao frowned slightly and asked her sister calmly. "No hurry, send out scouts immediately. I want to know the exact information from Luoyang!" Zhang Jue frowned and quickly mobilized the Thunder Warriors to investigate near Luoyang. He found that the situation had become extremely bad: Ma Yuanyi's troops were completely wiped out, and Luoyang's defense level was also raised to the limit. A large number of Yingchuan Yellow Turbans also sent this abnormal information over, which could corroborate each other. However, the Han emperor's imperial guards seemed only capable of defending Luoyang and had no ability to cross the Yellow River. "Tell the other thirty-five warlords that Ma Yuanyi is in trouble and we have been exposed. Don't wait for the auspicious day of March 5th, start the uprising directly! Tonight! Right now!" Zhang Jue frowned, but in this crisis situation, she still gave orders in an orderly manner. Her calm orders quickly stabilized the turbulent military morale. “Zhang Liang, take the halberd warriors and quickly attack the county armory and seize the weapons and armor; Zhang Bao, take your men to attack the granary. After taking it, immediately distribute the grain to the people in the city and encourage those who have not joined us to join the uprising. Everyone else, follow me, go directly to the county government, kill the county magistrate, and seize power! Since we cannot attack the capital and win a quick victory, we will first seize the land of Jizhou, block the river in the south, and block Yan and Dai in the north, and confront the Han Dynasty first! " After giving the order, Zhang Jue carried out the final mobilization using highly inflammatory words and exaggerated and intense body language. "This is not what I wanted. I never thought of wielding a butcher knife against the emperor. We built such a great empire together, but the emperor betrayed us all! He arrogantly sat on the dragon throne in Luoyang, watching us being naked, hungry, freezing and dying of poverty, but he became even more aggressive in occupying our land, oppressing our loved ones, and taking away everything we cherish! Cangtian has died in his own greed and corruption! And Huangtian replaced him as the new master! Let the war begin! From the majestic Taihang Mountains to the Yangtze River and lakes in the seven counties of Jingxiang, destroy all the county magistrates' offices! Capture all the fortresses of the nobles! Even if I shed my last drop of blood, I will lead you to retake the land that originally belonged to us! Our property, everything we have! Let the empire burn!!!" As soon as Zhang Jue finished speaking, thousands of people raised their left arms and roared with all their might in unison! "The blue sky is dead! The yellow sky should be established! The year is Jiazi! Good luck to the world!!!"
The Yellow Turbans responded to the call with one heart. They immediately went back to gather their followers and believers in the middle of the night and spread the news of the uprising to the other 34 war generals. In an instant, they gathered! Everyone tied a yellow turban on their heads to distinguish between enemies and friends. Most of them wore cloth clothes and held sickles, hoes and other farm tools, but there were also elite soldiers wearing iron armor and holding halberds and shields, joining the uprising team in a mighty manner. When the prefect of Wei County was awakened by the noise, he found that the whole Yecheng had changed. Tens of thousands of people holding torches were rushing from every corner of Yecheng towards the county government office, granary, and armory. The sparks of fire gradually gathered together and spread like wildfire. The governor looked up in horror. The surging crowd moving through the streets at this moment looked like a huge fire snake that spread to the end of his vision, wriggling and wriggling under the dark night sky. Tens of thousands of torches illuminated the night as if it were day, and made hundreds of iron armors, thousands of sharp blades, and tens of thousands of yellow scarves exceptionally dazzling. Their terrifying, uniform war cries frightened the governor to the point of trembling with fear. "The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established! In the year of Jiazi, the world will be blessed!!!" Chapter 30: Dragon Emperor of Luoyang A vigorous Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out with Yecheng as the starting point. Overnight, it spread like a virus to the entire Han Empire. The officials in Luoyang looked at the information in their hands in astonishment. Weijun of Jizhou, Zhuojun of Youzhou, Taiyuan of Bingzhou, Donglai of Qingzhou, Chenjun of Yanzhou, Yingchuan of Yuzhou, Wujun of Yangzhou, Nanyang of Jingzhou, Hanzhong of Yizhou... peasant riots of unprecedented scale broke out almost at the same time. Emergency documents flew to Luoyang from all over the country like snowflakes, filling the desks in the hall. Ma Yuanyi, who was executed by being torn to pieces in Luoyang, was only one of the thirty-six war generals. These Yellow Turban bandits united under the banner of the remaining thirty-five war generals, and they rose up together, attacking cities and strongholds together. There were small numbers of five or six thousand, large numbers of hundreds of thousands, and some Yellow Turban bandits who were sent out by the war generals to fight were also harassing everywhere. For a time, it seemed as if the entire empire was under attack! "Ta, ta, ta." With hurried footsteps, a team of eunuchs with feminine looks passed through the majestic and magnificent nine-story palace of Luoyang, entered the magnificent and beautiful mountain and river gardens of the Western Garden, and finally stopped in front of an extremely magnificent palace. The two leading eunuchs looked at each other and ordered the others to wait outside the palace. Only two of them entered. The towering nine-ridged palace roof is supported by ingenious carved beams and painted rafters; the lifelike painted murals decorate the magnificent and luxurious inner hall; countless silk brocades hang down from the beams like willow branches in spring, dancing gracefully in the breeze; endless gold, silver and jewels decorate the hall like the fine snow in winter, covering the entire palace with a golden and silver coat of extreme luxury. Although there was a layer of white snow outside the hall, it was warm as spring inside, even making the two eunuchs who entered the hall feel hot all over. There was not a single candle lit in the gloomy hall, so it became even darker. Hundreds of hot and pretty girls were running and playing naked inside the hall. Their plump and round buttocks, their round breasts, their snow-white and soft waists and legs were faintly visible in the thin silk embroidery. They let out bursts of numbing and bone-numbing moans in the shadows. In the center of the hall, there were twenty naked and beautiful musicians, plucking the strings of their harps, striking the chimes, and playing seductive music. "hiss--" Suddenly, a low and hoarse sound of flesh rubbing against each other came from the left side of the hall. Two eunuchs with feminine faces turned their heads and saw an extremely large, blood-red shadow passing through the dark interior of the palace. "hiss--" Before the two could react, the creepy friction sound was heard again from the right side of the hall. They saw an incredibly huge red python, wriggling its huge body, crawling and moving around in the luxurious hall. It was so huge that mortals could only see a tiny part of its body. Dozens of beauties were naked, with their snow-white thighs spread out, and they were constantly rubbing the thousands of fish scales with their small mouths below. The giant suddenly increased its crawling speed, and tens of thousands of densely packed fine scales rapidly scratched the lower bodies of dozens of beauties, which immediately caused a burst of lewd singing and talking. Many people even had squirting and leaked urine on the spot, accompanied by waves of numb and bone-deep screams, filling the air with a lewd atmosphere. The two eunuchs looked forward along the body of the giant python. No, that was not a giant python at all, but a real dragon with red scales. Its towering body was hundreds of meters long. It coiled and squirmed in almost every corner, on every pillar and every beam of the hall, while rubbing the naked bodies of hundreds of naked women. Its four huge dragon claws each grabbed a sexy beauty, and with gasps of pleasure and pain, it used its sharp claws to frantically knead every piece of beautiful flesh on their bodies. Several favored beauties even rode on the dragon's back openly, flying and wriggling inside the dark hall along with the dragon's huge body. Drops of silver juice flowed along the friction between the beauties' legs and the dragon's scales, gradually covering the entire body of the dragon. This was not the Western Garden Palace at all; it was clearly a giant, licentious and grand orgy where the Emperor of Han was conquering hundreds of concubines at the same time by himself. "Ah! Is there anyone?!" In the midst of the obscene pleasure, a few beauties suddenly discovered the arrival of the two eunuchs and hurriedly hid behind the pillars to conceal their private parts. The dragon, who had indulged himself in excessive lust, only then noticed the arrival of the two eunuchs after hearing the beauties' screams. "It's okay. Changshi Zhang is my father and Changshi Zhao is my mother. You ladies don't need to hide in front of them." The red dragon opened its mouth wide, letting its hoarse and weak voice echo back and forth in every corner of the hall. It did not think that there was anything wrong for a dignified emperor to recognize two eunuchs as his parents. This was the ruler of the empire: Liu Hong. Suddenly, the real dragon sped up its crawling speed, and the majestic and terrifying dragon head hung down from the beam and fell into the dragon throne deep in the hall. The huge body of hundreds of meters long twisted and dissipated like a mirage. The red dragon that was a hundred meters long turned into a tall and sinister man in the blink of an eye, sitting naked on the dragon throne. He was pale and his cheeks were thin. He was obviously just a young man in his twenties, but his hairline had moved up very seriously, showing signs of kidney deficiency due to excessive indulgence. Countless beauties giggled, pushed, and scrambled to kneel at his feet, lie on his chest, lick him carefully with their small lilac tongues, and serve every inch of the real dragon's sick and pale skin. "Has the deal been reached? Are those noble families willing to pay? Now the empire is on fire everywhere, and I need money, a lot of money to send troops to quell the rebellion."
In response to the emperor's question, the two eunuchs looked at each other, sighed, and said helplessly. "Those aristocratic families are willing to pay, but they have two conditions. First, all the scholars who were imprisoned because of the Party Imprisonment Disaster must be released without charge." Liu Hong had a cold face and said nothing. "Second, they asked you to replace several key positions with people from aristocratic families instead of your own trusted aides." "absurd!"
