Chapter 467 Complete blockade of hope is shattered
Chapter 466: Complete blockade of hope is shattered
Among the three Qin and Sun Cao, Qin Wen was the oldest, so he was the eldest brother.
Sun Jian was the same age as Cao Cao, but he was older than Cao Cao, so he was the second brother, while Cao Cao was the third brother.
The three of them ended up being one prince and supporting each other in troubled times, which became a good story.
Looking at the two brothers kneeling in front of him, Qin Wen said with a serious expression: "Cao Cao is the main general and Sun Jian is the deputy general. He leads a 100,000 army to Wuguan and Nanyang to support the southern army to attack Yiqueguan."
"No!" the two responded together.
Generals such as Gongsun Zan all looked dissatisfied, but this is understandable. After all, it is too obvious that Qin Wen is biased towards Sun Cao, but what if he is dissatisfied with him? Who made Qin Wen the Grand Governor?
After sending reinforcements from the South Road, Qin Wen immediately began to consider reinforcements from the North Road and finally set his sights on Dong Zhuo.
"Dong Zhuo, where is Yuan Shao?"
"The last one is here." The two stood up and responded.
"Here he appointed Dong Zhuo as the main general and Yuan Shao as the deputy general, leading 100,000 troops, traveling to Puban to Bingzhou and crossing the Yellow River, and supporting the Northern Army to attack Xiaopingjin Pass."
"No."
Dong Zhuo was the commander of the 200,000 Liangzhou Army, and Yuan Shao was even a member of the Yuan family, the first family of the time. Only by making friends with these two people is in line with the long-term development of the Qin family in the future.
As for the other princes, no one can catch Qin Wen''s eyes yet, so there is no saying that offends.
In this way, 200,000 Han troops left Hangu Pass in two groups, while Qin Wen continued to command
One south and one north, the Yellow Turban will be surrounded by the Yellow Turban. Once you reach your destination, the Yellow Turban will have no chance of breaking the cage.
The third year of Zhongping (186), January 20th.
Zhang Shicheng led and attacked Dagu Pass fiercely, but under Bai Qi''s strict defense, Zhang Shicheng launched more than ten attacks but failed to conquer.
January 24th.
Huangfu Song led and went south to attack Xiaopingjin, preparing to completely lock the northern gate of Sizhou. However, due to the influence of the climate, he failed to conquer several strong attacks and had to temporarily retreat to Mengjin Pass.
February 10th.
Cao Cao''s reinforcements arrived at Yique Pass and met with Qin Hao. After that, under the fierce attack of more than 100,000 Han troops and countless powerful generals, they finally captured Yique Pass at the cost of losing 30,000 troops. The Yellow Turban South Gate was completely locked down.
After conquering Yique Pass, Qin Hao organized a defense to send reinforcements to Dagu Pass. At this point, the East Gate was also foolproof.
February 16th.
Dong Zhuo''s reinforcements finally arrived at Mengjin Pass, and Huangfu Song immediately led a 150,000 army south to attack Xiaopingjin for the second time.
After a month of siege, the Xiaopingjin Gate was finally smashed by Li Yuanba''s ten hammers, and the North Gate of Sizhou was completely locked.
Since then, except for the burned Hulao Pass, all seven passes in the eight passes in Luoyang have returned to the hands of the Han army, and everyone realized that the Yellow Turbans would be in danger.
On February 20, the private grain storage in Sizhou was finally completely exhausted.
There are more than 3 million people in the four counties and 78 counties of Sizhou. The Yellow Turban military grain storage is only enough for the army to use for two months, and it is not enough for the three million people to share the food.
But if we do not divide food to provide disaster relief, suppressing the people''s riots will make the Sizhou Yellow Turban run away.
But if you share the food, it is like waiting for death.
In desperation, Zhang Sheng had to order the entire territory of Sizhou and the entire army gathered in Luoyang to defend the city.
The commanders of Qu Shicheng, Li Zicheng, Chen Youliang and other soldiers who were leading the troops all gave up defending and returned to Luoyang.
Nowadays, the Yellow Turban can only delay time in this way.
After all, Luoyang City has high walls and hundreds of thousands of guards are defending it, it is impossible for the Han army to break the city. The people of more than 70 cities abandoned will also increase the logistics burden of the Han Dynasty. The Yellow Turbans still have two hopes at present.
First, drag it until the climate warms up so that they can break the cage.
Second, I hope that the Kanto Yellow Turbans can break the cage from the outside so that they can also save them.
God seems to be on the side of the Han Dynasty. Today''s winter is unexpectedly long. The Yellow Turbans waited left and right without waiting for the temperature to rise. The Kanto Yellow Turbans failed to break through the Zhangliao defense line, let alone break the Dagu Pass.
An atmosphere of despair is gradually spreading among the Luoyang Yellow Turbans.
The roof leaked and rained all night.
At this moment, the people of Luoyang also launched a riot.
Luoyang, once the imperial capital, was the largest and richest city of this era, with millions of people in one city alone.
But with the outbreak of war, the conscription, the capital moved and the massacre of Xiang Yu, the former imperial capital no longer had its previous prosperity, and even its population dropped sharply to 700,000, but it is still the most populous city.
Among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, if we talk about the people''s strength to oppose the Yellow Turbans, the people of Sizhou are definitely the strongest.
After the Yellow Turban occupied Sizhou, the "Celestial Land System" implemented made the Yellow Turban win the hearts of the people in Sizhou.
But the people of Luoyang are still unkind. The people of the imperial capital are used to being arrogant. In addition, there are too many people in Luoyang who die at the hands of the Yellow Turbans. This hatred cannot be offset by a little "small favor".
In order to delay time, the Yellow Turban abandoned more than two million people in Sizhou, but the 700,000 people in Luoyang also have to have a meal?
The Yellow Turban does not have enough food, so sharing the food is equivalent to waiting for death.
In order to survive, the food and hatred of relatives, the riot in Luoyang became more and more intense.
Seeing that the situation gradually got out of control, Zhang Sheng proposed to share the grain to quell the riot, but he did not get the support of a coach, and even Zhang Baiqiujiao did not support it.
In the eyes of the Yellow Turban executives, they have done their best to the people of Luoyang, but in this way, they cannot regain the hearts of Luoyang, so they can only kill all the loyalty of these great men.
Luoyang is facing another massacre, but just as it was about to be implemented, Zhang Jiao personally called it to stop.
In the palace hall, Zhang Jiao, with a pale face, said to the coach of Qu weakly: "Send the order and distribute the food to the people of Luoyang to calm the riot."
“Master, you can’t share the food.”
Zhang Niujiao knelt down and advised, and then Zhang Baiqi also said, "Master, if you share the food, there is really no hope of getting out of trouble."
Zhu Yuanzhang then stood up, and the other Qu generals also made suggestions, hoping that Zhang Jiao could take back his life.
Zhang Jiao smiled miserably and asked, "Can you persevere until you get out of trouble without sharing food?"
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, but he didn''t know how to answer.
Everyone knows in their hearts that it is almost impossible for them to get out of trouble in the face of hundreds of thousands of Han troops who occupy the right time, place and people.
The Yellow Turbans'' hopes have been shattered, but it is indeed a bit too cruel to ask them to admit this fact.
Zhang Jiao knew that everyone could not accept it, so why was he willing to accept it, but what if he didn’t accept it?
In the end, it still failed!
Zhang Jiao was extremely sad. He did not care about power or reputation, but to seek benefits for the poor people in the world, he did not hesitate to offend the aristocratic families in the world, but there were still people who wanted to rebel against him.
?The first update will be, and the second update will be before twelve o''clock. The Yellow Turban Chapter will be over, and the progress will be very fast.
