The second is because, in recent years, we have experienced frequent disasters in the Han Dynasty, and a large number of people have no livelihood, so they are easily agitated by the Taiping Tao.The third thing..."
"Three what?"
"Thirdly, it is... yes..." Lu Qiang lowered his head, hesitatingly said: "It's because the imperial court's taxes are too much, and recently His Majesty suddenly increased the business tax by five times, the common people are really...really... ...I can't hold on any longer!"
"Why? In it, there is also the reason why I suddenly increased the business tax?"
After Liu Hong heard about this, he was even more depressed.
He didn't need to look, he could imagine the weird look in his eyes when the beauties around him heard this.
He didn't need to look, he could imagine how proud Liu Yan, who was far away in Liangzhou, would be after learning about this——
His act of retaliating against Liu Yan for increasing the business tax turned out to be shooting himself in the foot!
He could even imagine how his actions would be evaluated in the history books—officials forced the people to rebel, comparable to the kings of Xia Jie and Shang Zhou!
Do not!
None of this can happen!
The widow Ying Mingzong, the master of the great Han Dynasty, how could he make mistakes?
The widow will never change what he did before!
The widow will never be laughed at by that thief Liu Yan!
The widow will never admit his mistake!
The yellow turbans are in chaos, and it is definitely not the widows who are at fault, but those troublemakers!
Liu Hong's brains turned sharply, and he finally made up his mind that he must die to save face!
He shouted angrily: "Bold! I just raised the business tax a little bit, how could it cause chaos in the world? It is clear that the Taiping Dao has planned for a long time to usurp my Huahua Jiangshan! How dare you borrow it from me! Wearing yellow turbans, slandering the saints! Come, someone!"
"Here!" The warrior in front of the Ziyou Temple stepped forward.
"Pull Lu Qiang out and chop him up!"
"Here!"
The four warriors pulled Lu Qiang away.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You listen to my servant's persuasion. The chaos of the yellow scarves is really a disaster for the court's heavy taxes!"
"The death of slaves is not a pity. Please stop selling officials and nobles, and reduce or exempt taxes. If your majesty can change the past, the chaos of the Yellow Turban will be settled soon!"
"Even if His Majesty really doesn't want to admit his mistakes, please quickly dispatch the Liangzhou Army to put down the rebellion! The Yellow Turban Rebellion is so violent that it is beyond the power of the imperial court to put it down!"
……
It has to be said that Lu Qiang is the white crow among the black crows of the eunuchs. Until his death, he was still thinking about Liu Hong, admonishing and planning.
Of course, his remonstrance is doomed to be in vain.
How could the headstrong Liu Hong listen to him?
After beheading Lu Qiang, Liu Hong laughed loudly, and said, "What's wrong with changing the past? What's the matter of mobilizing the Liangzhou army to suppress the rebellion? I'm right! I'm absolutely right! Lu Qiang, Lu Qiang, if you are in heaven If you have a spirit, just look at it: I don’t need to change the course of the small Taipingdao chaos, and I don’t need the Liangzhou army, it can be settled with my backhand!”
"Zhang Rang!"
"The servant is here!"
"Give me an order!"
Liu Hong said with high fighting spirit: "Order General He Jin to lead the front, rear and middle battalions of the Habayashi Army to guard Luoyang. In the Sili area, [-] troops were urgently recruited, and eight captains of Xiyuan were set up. I will directly command them. Take precautions.
Taking Lu Zhi as the general of Beizhong, he led five school soldiers of the Northern Army, a total of [-] troops, to Jizhou to fight Zhang Jiao's main force!
Taking Shangshu Huangfusong as Zuo Zhonglang general, he led the Zuoying Yulin Army and Sanhe Knights, a total of [-] people, to Yuzhou to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army in the Yingchuan area.
Taking Zhu Jun, the admonishment doctor, as the general of the right middle man, he led the Yulin army of the right battalion and [-] Huaisi elite soldiers to Jingzhou to crusade against the Yellow Turban army in Nanyang.
Hehe, I don't believe it anymore, the three armies are coming together, and the little Taipingdao rebellion can't be put down? "
Ordinarily, there was nothing wrong with Liu Hong's decision.
As long as the Yellow Turban Rebellion can be put down quickly and efforts are made to bring it under control, the majesty of the emperor will not drop too much.
The three armies have come out together, and they have already exerted all the strength that the big man can mobilize now, so the Yellow Turban Army should be unlucky.
However, that's just "should be unreasonable".
In fact, the current strength of the Yellow Turban Army has far exceeded Liu Hong's imagination!
In the history without Liu Yan, Ma Yuanyi, the leader of the Taipingdao faction, entered Luoyang secretly, preparing to contact the eunuchs Fengxu and Xu Feng, kill the emperor and occupy Luoyang, which was a good start to the uprising.
However, a Taiping Taoist named Tang Zhou became a traitor and informed the court.As a result, Ma Yuanyi, the first-class military general in the Taiping Road, and Feng Xu and Xu Feng, two of the top ten servants who were the strongest insiders, were all killed.Taipingdao was also forced to revolt hastily one month in advance.
But now, because Taipingdao realized Liu Yan's strength and changed his uprising strategy, he didn't have the idea of attacking Luoyang first, so naturally there was no Tang Zhou whistleblower.
The first-class general Ma Yuanyi was safe and sound.
The strongest insiders, Feng Xu and Xu Feng, are safe and sound.Let Taipingdao know the military intelligence of the Han court like the palm of his hand.
And the most important thing, this time the Taiping Dao is not a hasty uprising, but when the time is ripe, the Yellow Turban believers from more than a hundred counties in the eight states will join in the uprising!
All of a sudden, the Han court was fooled.
Within ten days, Taiping Dao has caused disasters in eight states!
When the three-way army dispatched by Liu Hong arrived at their destination, the strength of the Yellow Turban Army far exceeded their estimates.
What awaited these three armies was a series of disastrous defeats.
What awaits Liu Hong is a completely out-of-control situation!
Chapter 147 The emperor lost all face and bowed to Liu Yan
Three months later, news of the disastrous defeat of the officers and troops spread to Luoyang City.
Of Huangfusong's 4 troops, there are now only about 30 left, and they were trapped in Changsha by General Bo Cai of the Yellow Turban Army with a rate of [-] troops!
Of Zhu Jun's 30 troops, only about [-] were left, and Zhang Mancheng, a general of the Yellow Turban Army, led [-] troops and was trapped in Nanyang!
The 40 army led by Lu Zhi was the worst, defeated in the battle with Zhang Jiao's main force, leaving only [-] of the [-] troops, who were surrounded by Zhang Jiao's [-] troops in Anping.
Today, more than half of Dahan's eight states belong to Taiping Road.
Emperor Liu Hong's previous counter-insurgency plan has now become a big joke!
……
Luoyang Imperial Palace, Deyang Hall, Early Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, if the three main forces of the big man are wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army after a while, the consequences will be completely unimaginable! Please quickly transfer the Liangzhou Army to the Central Plains to suppress the rebellion!"
"The three strategies offered by Champion Hou are actually the best plan to resolve the current crisis of my great man. Please obey me, Your Majesty!"
"If your majesty doesn't make a decision sooner, I'm afraid that our great Han society will be overthrown!"
……
Well, the civil and military officials of the Han Dynasty have asked Emperor Liu Hong to issue an order to transfer Liangzhou troops into the Central Plains to suppress the rebellion.
Some people even asked, and Liu Hong agreed, that Liu Yan had just proposed three counter-rebellion strategies to the court recently.
No way, the current situation is really too bad.
Regardless of Liu Yan's Liangzhou Army, or Liu Yan's three anti-insurgency strategies just presented, they are all necessary to solve the current crisis!
Of course, this is just what the courtiers thought.
Whether it is Liu Yan's Liangzhou Army, or Liu Yan's three counter-insurgency strategies, Liu Hong is not ready to accept it!
What are the three strategies?
The first clever strategy is to lift the party's imprisonment and allow the scholars who were imprisoned by the party to be officials.
If it is said that the first party imprisonment carried out by Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty Liu Zhi still has some truth.By the second party imprisonment, it was a complete injustice——
14 years ago, after the shocking coup, the eunuchs asked Liu Hong to issue an order to prohibit people related to Dou Wu and Chen Fan from being officials.
Isn't the lifting of the party shackles the same as Liu Hong admitting that when he was a teenager, he made a mistake?
Liu Hong never wanted to slap himself in the face!
The second clever strategy is to ask Liu Hong to stop selling officials and nobles, and restore all taxes in the world to the level before the third Qiang Rebellion.
Liu Hong was even more unwilling to agree to this.
tax cut?
After the tax reduction, what will Liu Hong use to build the West Garden, and what will he use to attract beauties?It was simply to kill Liu Hong!
The third strategy is that the national treasury is now empty, so Liu Hong is asked to send out the property of the Shaofu for military funds.
This one is even more difficult for Liu Hong.
The emperor of the Han Dynasty will only take advantage of the court of the Han Dynasty, how can he support himself for the court?
Liu Hong didn't agree either!
Therefore, in the face of this shocking and dangerous situation of the big man, Liu Hong continued to choose to be self-willed!
When the voices of the courtiers gradually faded, Liu Hong lowered his hands and said, "What? Do you think that Liu Yan is the only way to put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion? Do you have to implement Liu Yan's three strategies? What a big joke! I have a clever plan to solve my current crisis!"
"Excuse me, Your Majesty, what is the plan?"
"First, now that my West Garden Forbidden Army has been trained, I will order Cao Cao, Lieutenant of the Dian Army, to lead [-] West Garden troops to rescue Huangfusong who is besieged in Changshe.
I will send Yuan Shao, Lieutenant of the Central Military Academy, to lead [-] Xiyuan troops to rescue Zhu Jun who is besieged in Nanyang!By the way, there is also Lu Zhi who is trapped in Anping..."
After a pause, Liu Hong complacently said: "I tell you dear friends, yesterday I have issued a decree to order Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, to send troops to Anping. Dong Aiqing has the bravery of a man, and there are many talents under his command. He will definitely be able to make great achievements in one fell swoop!"
Lu Zhi in Anyang, although there are only [-] troops left, is still the absolute main force of the big man.
The three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao who besieged Lu Zhi and their 40 Yellow Turban Army were also the main force of the Yellow Turban Army.
There is no doubt that Anping is the most critical place for the decisive battle between the Han court and the Yellow Turban!
In Liu Hong's thoughts: Who in the world doesn't know that Liu Yan, the shepherd of Liangzhou, is at odds with Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou?
Even if Dong Zhuo is not as good as Liu Yan, the gap should not be too big, right?
Well, I will let Dong Zhuo do the great work of saving the Han Dynasty!Dong Zhuo will surely live up to my expectations and make great contributions to me!
Of course, this is just Liu Hong's good wish.
In the thoughts of all the courtiers: Faint king!You, Liu Hong, are an out-and-out fool!
Compared with Liu Yan, what is Dong Zhuo?Dong Zhuo's wish to defeat Zhang Jiao is simply a daydream!
In the end, is Liu Hong's idea correct?Or are the courtiers correct?
The answer will be revealed soon!
A month later, the 30 Xiyuan Army led by Cao Cao broke through the siege, rushed into Changshe City, and was surrounded by [-] legions led by Bocai, which did not help the entire battle situation.
Dong Zhuo led the [-] Bingzhou Army out of Bingzhou, and after a battle with Zhang Jiao, only [-] of the [-] Bingzhou Army were left, and they were defeated and returned to Bingzhou!
Yuan Shao's [-] West Garden Army was the worst, and Zhang Mancheng defeated the entire army.Yuan Shao escaped back to Luoyang with only his own life!
However, Liu Hong's three-way rescue army barely survived the whole way, and two ways were defeated.The situation is worse than before.
The dilapidated house was hit by rain overnight, and the bad news was not limited to these.
On this day, when Liu Hong and his courtiers were discussing what to do next in the Deyang Hall, bad news came one after another.
King Wuhuan Tadun led an army of [-] to attack Shanggu County in Youzhou.There are Yellow Turbans in the south of Shanggu County and Wuhuan people in the north. It is really difficult to support them. Please send reinforcements quickly!
Xianbei Wang Kebineng led an army of [-] to attack Bingzhou, and Dong Zhuo, the governor of Bingzhou, tried his best to resist, and it was difficult to dispatch a single soldier to deal with the Yellow Turban!
Some people in Yizhou claimed to be Chen Yi, the son of the old Grand Tutor Chen Fan, and gathered thousands of people to rebel with the slogan "Punish the eunuchs, and the Qing emperor will side"!
"Oh, it's hateful! It's annoying! I can't wait to tear these rebellious officials and thieves to pieces!"
After hearing the bad news, Liu Hong stood up angrily, and howled like a wounded wild wolf!
No wonder he lost his composure, it's because he has been cornered now!
How to do?
Wuhuan people and Xianbei people are taking advantage of the fire to loot at this time, what kind of mobile force do I have to support them?
And the most important thing, Chen Yi, the son of Grand Tutor Chen Fan, rebelled?
