At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were no Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty

Liu Yu was grinning, sitting in the study of the palace, watching the good news from all over the place.

All good news!It's all about this year's autumn harvest, which makes Liu Yu grinning from ear to ear.

Liu Yu laughed loudly and said to himself: "Hahaha! With so much food in storage, even if there is chaos next year, I am not afraid that there will be too many refugees and the food will not be enough! And the Wei family really helped me The king is doing me a favor!"

That's right, the Wei family has helped him a lot, because the Wei family's food collected from all over the country is over a million tons!

What's more, the money seized was even more uncountable, it was too much, and Liu Yu threw it all into the warehouse of the palace!

If there is no money and food from the Wei family, the people of Bingzhou will be fine, but Liu Yu may not be able to receive all the refugees who will flood into Bingzhou next year!

How many refugees are there?No one knows the exact number, it can be more or less!

If there are too many refugees and not enough food, then the livestock seized from the grassland can only be used as rations.

But with the money and food from the Wei family, Liu Yu has enough confidence to take in those refugees!

What are you fighting for? !One is money and the other is people!After several years of continuous accommodation of people, there are nearly 400 million people in Bingzhou today!

If another million refugees are accommodated next year, Bingzhou will become the state with the largest Han population!As for money, the most important thing in Bingzhou is money!

As for the three counties of Jizhou, Liu Yu did not count them. The three counties of Jizhou were Liu Yu's warehouses. To a certain extent, Liu Yu did not intend to let Jizhou support Bingzhou!

The harvest boom in Bingzhou lasted for more than a month before it ended, and all the granaries were basically full!

People, every family has enough surplus food and spare money in their hands!The people of Bingzhou now have a strong sense of belonging to Bingzhou.

Only after they have experienced pain can they cherish the beautiful life in front of them even more. Now the whole Bingzhou is united, and the people respect Liu Yu like a god!

……

Time has come in a blink of an eye to the New Year!

Today, parts of Bingzhou have been covered with ice and snow, which spoiled some fun-loving children.

The children wore thick clothes and piled the snow into various shapes. Some children even rolled on the snow, laughing and joking!

And this scene was also staged in Jinyang Palace.

In the backyard of the palace, a thick layer of snow had already accumulated at this time. At the request of several wives, Liu Yu did not send someone to clean it!

At this time, Liu Yu was playing and frolicking in the snow with several ladies!

Caier, Diaochan and Caiyan, leading the other two girls, chased Liu Yu in the snow.

And this invincible prince of Bingzhou, at this time, was beaten by a few girls and ran away, so embarrassed!

After a few people played for a while in the silver-clad, fairyland-like backyard of the Wangfu, Liu Yu left the backyard of the Wangfu under the reluctant eyes of the women.

Liu Yu decided to bring Cai Yong, Zheng Xuan and others to the palace, so that everyone can celebrate the New Year together, so there are so many people.

So Liu Yu led Dianwei all the way to Jinyang Academy, and told Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong about the matter, and they did not refuse.

Zheng Xuan is in Bingzhou, the only relative is Liu Yu, a closed disciple, and Cai Yong's relatives are also in Jinyang, so it would be great to be able to celebrate the New Year with his family.

Afterwards, the two followed Liu Yu to the palace. At this time, the hall of the palace was overcrowded, and all the civilians and soldiers under his command were waiting for Liu Yu to take the lead in offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors.

To say this Chinese New Year, every period of history is different.

During the Xia Dynasty, the first day of the first lunar month in the current lunar calendar was called New Year's Day at that time.

In the Yin and Shang Dynasties, New Year's Day was changed to the first day of the twelfth lunar month, and in the subsequent Zhou Dynasty, New Year's Day was moved forward to the first day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar.

After the Qin Dynasty unified the six countries, the Spring Festival in the true sense appeared for the first time.

The Qin Dynasty stipulated that the first tenth month of the lunar calendar must be New Year's Day every year, and this day is also a festival for the unification of the Qin Dynasty.

And the first day of October in the lunar calendar is just at the end of autumn, which is a harvest festival, so we should thank the gods for their gifts.

In the Han Dynasty, the festivals of the Qin Dynasty continued for a long time at the beginning.

It was not until Sima Qian proposed in the first year of Emperor Wu's Taichu that the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar in the Qin Dynasty was changed to the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar as the beginning of the year.

Although the Spring Festival in the Han Dynasty changed its date, it was similar to the customs and habits of the Qin Dynasty.

It is very cumbersome to worship the sky first, and then start to worship the ancestors, but Liu Yu can't break this rule.

……

Without further delay, Liu Yu led the crowd, first the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and then the ceremony of offering sacrifices to ancestors and burning firecrackers. After all these tasks were over, it was afternoon.

After returning to the palace, the servants began to prepare the banquet, and the banquet was placed in the hall of the palace, with more than twenty people sitting together.

Drinking strong wine in their mouths to dispel the cold, everyone chatted and talked about how lively the place was. From the beginning of the banquet, the laughter and laughter never stopped, and this banquet lasted for a long time before it ended.

When Liu Yu returned to the backyard, the sky had completely darkened.

When the ladies saw Liu Yu came back, they rushed forward and pulled Liu Yu into the room.

At this time, several candles were lit in the room, and meals were placed on the table. It turned out that the girls hadn't eaten all this time, and they were all waiting for their husbands to celebrate the New Year with them.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yu felt warm in his heart.

Seeing the girls looking at him expectantly, Liu Yu could only bite the bullet and follow the girls to have another meal.

In the laughter of Liu Yu and several wives, 183 years is over, the old year is over, and the year 184 AD is coming.

……

The very beginning of 184 indicated that this was an extraordinary year.

First of all, in January 184, Zhang Jiao, the leader of Taipingdao, prepared to gather disciples to revolt in March!

However, one month before the uprising, a disciple named Tang Zhou of Zhang Jiao made an informant, confessing to Ma Yuanyi, the internal adviser of the capital.

Ma Yuanyi was torn apart by a car, and the officers and soldiers vigorously arrested and killed believers who believed in Taiping Dao, implicating more than a thousand people, and ordered the pursuit of the thief Shou Zhangjiao.

Due to the sudden incident, Zhang Jiao was forced to attack in February one month in advance!

Zhang Jiao called himself General Tiangong, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang were General Digong and General Rengong respectively, and the strong wind started in Yuzhou!

With the slogan that the sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, the year is Jiazi, the world will be prosperous, and the army is raised against the Han!Cang Tian refers to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Huang Tian refers to the Taiping Dao!

And according to the speculation that the five virtues have always said, the Han Dynasty is the virtue of fire, and fire produces soil, and the soil is yellow, so all believers wear yellow scarves on their heads as a mark, also known as the Yellow Turban Army.

During the ten-month period, the Yellow Turban Army responded from all over the world. They burned the government, killed officials, and plundered the gentry. Within a month, wars broke out in 28 counties in seven prefectures across the country. Shake Kyoto.

The terrified Liu Hong took He Jin as the general, led the left and right Yulin, and the five battalions of soldiers, the Luoyang Northern Army, stationed in Luoyang, repaired weapons, and defended Luoyang, the capital!

Later, Liu Hong called a group of officials to discuss the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising.

Huangfu Songzuo, the prefect of the Northland, asked to lift the ban on the party members and give money from the palace as military expenses for the crusade against the Yellow Turbans.

Lu Zhi and Ma Riyi all came forward to speak out to lift the party ban!

Lu Zhijin said: "Your Majesty! The party members have been imprisoned for many years and have accumulated deep grievances. If they are not pardoned, once the party members unite with the Yellow Turban, the court will surely be endangered!"

Liu Hong asked Zhang Rang with fear on his face, and Zhang Rang agreed with what Lu Zhi and others said.

Only then did Liu Hong issue an edict to amnesty the party members, and the disaster of party imprisonment officially ended.

Chapter 149 The Yellow Turban Uprising

Now that the party ban has been lifted, it is time to study how to suppress the Yellow Turbans.

The size of the Yellow Turban Army is 36 squares, with 7000 people in the big square and [-] people in the small square!

The Yellow Turban Qushuai is Zhang Niujiao, Liu Pi, Gong Du, Zhang Baiqi, Lei Gong, Yang Feng, Yu Du, Li Damu, Zhang Mancheng, Bocai...etc. They are called Qushuai!

They are all over the eight states of Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan!

The momentum is so great that Liu Hong's heart is broken!But there was another change in Xianbei in the north, which made his backer, the emperor's younger brother Liu Yu, useless!

At this time, Liu Hong was like that helpless child, completely out of control!

In the end, at He Jin's suggestion, Zhu Jun, Huang Fusong, and Huang Fusong led Zhonglang General, led the five schools of the Northern Army, and [-] Yulin cavalry, a total of [-] troops, in charge of the Yuzhou front, and dealt with Zhang Jiao's main force.

Bai Lu Zhi as the general of the Zhonglang, Cao Cao as the captain of the cavalry, each leading an army, and the soldiers were newly recruited warriors, a total of more than 4 people, crusade against the Yellow Turban Army in the Qing, Yan, and Xu areas.

Zhu Jun went to the table to recruit Sun Jian as the assistant army Sima, and led a total of more than [-] people recruited from the same village to join Zhu Jun's army.

As for the Yellow Turban Army in Youzhou, Lu Zhi, Ma Rixun and others wrote a letter, and Gongsun Zan was responsible for exterminating them.

As for the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou, Zhao Lie was naturally responsible for exterminating them, and the leader of the army was Zhang He who rushed back from Bingzhou!

……

After the court meeting, in Yuan's mansion.

At this time, Yuan Feng and Yuan Kai were sitting opposite each other in the central hall of the Yuan family's mansion, and Yuan Fengzheng was furious, spitting and cursing.

"This group of untouchables! If they rebel, they will rebel. Why is the main force in my Yuzhou?! Isn't Jizhou richer than my Yuzhou?! Could it be that my Yuan family is easy to bully?! It's really unreasonable!"

Yuan Kai was also frowning at this time, with a constipated look on his face. After a moment of contemplation, Yuan Kai said: "I can't wait any longer. Let Ben Chu return to Runan, lead his family, and recruit some soldiers and horses." , drive the Yellow Turbans out of Yuzhou as soon as possible!"

When Yuan Feng heard this, he glanced at his brother, and retorted: "Now Zhu Jun, Huang Fusong are in charge of the main force of the Yuzhou Yellow Turban. If they recruited soldiers privately at the beginning and were reported to the emperor by them, it would be a serious crime!"

Yuan Kai sneered and said: "Didn't that mud-legged son Sun Jian also recruit a thousand braves?! What's the matter?! Didn't he become a regular army with Zhu Jun's words?!"

Yuan Fengwen frowned and thought for a while, then raised his head and said: "How about this, let Benchu ​​follow Zhu Jun and Huangfusong to Yuzhou together, and play by ear, I believe Zhu Jun and Huangfusong will not refuse! At the same time, I will send people to recruit some soldiers in Runan, and if nothing can be done, let Ben Chu leave and lead troops to defend Runan!"

Yuan Kai nodded when he heard the words, ready to give it a try!

……

The former Hejian Palace in Luoyang has been changed into the current General's Mansion. At this time, He Jin, who worships the Great General, is sitting in the hall of the General's Mansion with his younger brother He Miao, arguing about something.

"Brother! Why don't you send the foolish brother to attack the Yellow Turban? Although Meng De is a great talent, but this free credit, the foolish brother also wants to get a share!"

The speaker was He Jin's younger brother He Miao.

He Jin, who was seated at the top, snorted coldly when he heard this, and said, "The credit for nothing? That thief's first horn has a high prestige among the Yellow Turbans, making the Yellow Turbans fight bravely! Counties and counties everywhere have been breached, and officials Fleeing?! By you? Beat the Yellow Turban Bandit?”

He Miao's face turned red when he heard this, and he hesitated for a while, but he didn't refute, and sat down resentfully, with a look of unwillingness on his face.

At this time, a soldier came in and reported loudly to He Jin: "Report...! Cavalry Captain Cao Cao is paying a visit outside the residence!"

When He Jin heard the words, his face brightened, and he ordered the soldiers: "Please come in quickly!"

Looking at his brother who was full of joy, He Miao couldn't help but darken his face, and his heart was full of jealousy towards Cao Cao!

After a while, Cao Cao walked in with a smile on his face, saluted He, and said.

"General Meng Dexie supports!"

He Jin laughed and stood up when he heard this, walked up to Cao Cao and said.

"Meng De works for this general, so this general will definitely not treat Meng De badly! It is his Liu Yu's loss that King Bingzhou drove you Cao Mengde away. I, He Jin, am not like that Liu Yu, who has no knowledge of people! "

Cao Cao was very moved when he heard the words, and even said with red eyes: "The general is really a hero! I, Cao Mengde, have the honor to work under the general's command. How lucky is it? Fuck, I will definitely do my best to assist the general!"

He Jin patted Cao Cao's shoulder happily when he heard this, and said with a gratified expression.

"Okay, okay, Mengde will do his best."

Afterwards, He Jin changed his tone, and said to Cao Cao with a serious face: "Meng De needs to be more careful in this march, the Yellow Turban bandits are fierce, all you need to do is try your best, don't force it! After you make some contributions , this general will naturally show Meng De's merits to His Majesty!"

Cao Cao was even more moved when he heard the words, his lips trembled, and he looked at He Jin with tears in his eyes, speechless.

Seeing this, He Jin patted Cao Cao on the shoulder again, gave him an encouraging look, and then let Cao Cao leave and let him go to the Luoyang barracks to select soldiers.

Looking at Cao Cao's back, He Jin looked relieved. Cao Cao knew how to behave, was capable, and was extremely loyal. He was simply a great talent tailored for He Jin.

It's worthy of my painstaking efforts to snatch him Cao Mengde from Bingzhou!

And He Jin's younger brother, He Miao, looked at Cao Cao's back at this time, a little unwilling.

In He Miao's mind, he, Cao Cao, was nothing more than a servant raised by the He family, and now he went out to put down the Yellow Turban Bandit instead of him. Doesn't this mean that he, He Miao, was even worse than a servant? !

The more He Miao thought about it, the more angry he got up and left the General's Mansion angrily!

"Ugh!"

Seeing his brother He Miao like this, He Jin couldn't help sighing, feeling a little headache.

His younger brother always wants to lead the army to do meritorious service and put down the Yellow Turban. Although the idea is good, you have to be capable!

I don't have the ability to lead troops to destroy the Yellow Turbans?Who will destroy whom?Is it true that the Yellow Turban is made of mud?Wouldn't it be nice to just wait for a promotion in Luoyang? !

Seeing He Miao who left his house angrily, He Jin knew that he must have gone to the palace again to sue his sister, Queen He, for complaints.

Thinking of this, He Jin's head hurt even more.

As for Cao Cao, who was heading to the Luoyang military camp, how could he still have the tearful and moved face just now?At this moment, Cao Cao was positively confident, with the corners of his mouth raised.

But he was sighing in his heart, "Sure enough, what the lord said is right, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!"
