Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 31 The troubled times are coming
In February 184 A.D., Zhang Jiao, a great virtuous teacher, sent an envoy to send the food, money and food used in the uprising together with a personal gift to Zhao Lei. After counting by Zhang Han and Jia Xu, there were about 2 food and grass. Shi, 30 yuan, and various rare treasures for Zhao Lei, which are much more than what Zhang Jiao promised to give before.

After sending the envoy away, Zhao Lei held a meeting in the Council Hall.

"This old man Zhang Jiao, it seems that he wants to be the emperor and wants to go crazy." Zhang Han looked at the mountain of money that bribed Zhao Lei, and smiled.

"Since he gave us so much willingly, we will take it all without hesitation," Zhao Lei said.

"My lord, you can transport most of the money to Yangzhou first. Anyway, the money and food for attacking Zhangjiao will be given by the court. Then these gold, silver and jewels will be given to the important officials and officials in the court. Send them away as soon as possible." Otherwise, it would be difficult to transport the money when the war broke out," Jia Xu said.

"If I have made meritorious service in the suppression of the chaos, do I still need to buy an official?" Zhao Lei asked strangely.

"My lord's military exploits in the quelling of the chaos this time are just a good excuse for you to sell your official position. Now that the court has become so stupid, every minister in the court only cares about his own interests. Who will care about the lord's status?" Didn’t they make great contributions to the court? They only care about the benefits that the lord can bring to them? Therefore, just like buying the prefect last time, it is inevitable to spend money this time,” Jia Xu said.

"Okay! That's the decision. Zizhou, you give the order!" Zhao Lei said.

Zhang Han came out and said, "Zhang He, Gao Lan listens to the order."

"The subordinates are here." Zhang He Gaolan came out.

"Order you two to lead 1000 people to transport most of the money and food donated by Zhang Jiao to Yangzhou. Remember, you can form a caravan, but you must transport it in batches, otherwise it will attract the attention of other forces. , It doesn’t matter if you encounter thieves on the road and lose a little property, but try to avoid contact with strangers to prevent accidents. Do you understand?” Zhang Han ordered.

"Subordinates obey." Zhang He and Gao Lan said, returning to the ranks.

"Zhao Yun listened to the order." Zhang Han said.

"The subordinate is here." Zhao Yun came out.

"I ordered you to be the commander of the three armies. During this month, strengthen the defenses of Changshan County's city towers. After three days, you will lead [-] troops to capture all Zhang Jiao's eyeliners in the city. Even if you kill them, you must not leave any of them behind. Send a letter to Zhang Jiao, understand?" Zhang Han said.

"Subordinates follow orders." Zhao Yun entered the list.

"Jia Xu obeys orders." Zhang Han said.

"I hope that Mr. Jia will select more witty soldiers in the army to walk in Jizhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou and other places to leave a message, saying that someone intends to rebel, so that counties and counties around the country will strengthen their precautions, so that if the Han army has taken precautions, Zhang Jiao will not be there. It is so easy to succeed, when he is in a stalemate with the Han army, there will be no extra troops to deal with us." Zhang Han said.

"Follow orders." Jia Xu joined the list.

"Zhou Cang listened to the order." Zhang Han said.

"The subordinate is here." Zhou Cang came out.

"The lord has a special task for you, go to Qingzhou to kill two people." Zhang Han said with a smile.

"Who is it?" Zhou Cang asked.

"Ma Yuanyi, Tangzhou, when you arrive in Qingzhou, you can inquire about these two people. They are Zhang Jiao's disciples." Zhang Han said.

"The subordinates take orders." Zhou Cang said.

In fact, Ma Yuanyi and Tangzhou were traitors sent by Zhang Jiao and Feng Xu, one of the ten regular attendants of the imperial court, cooperated with others.In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, due to the defeat of Tangzhou, Zhang Jiao's uprising was carried out ahead of schedule, so Zhao Lei followed the historical process, and just did it for the court.

"After you killed Tangzhou, you spread the news that Zhang Jiao intends to rebel in Qingzhou. We will catch Zhang Jiao by surprise. However, this matter is also extremely dangerous, and you need to be very careful." Zhang Han said.

"Yes, this subordinate obeys the order and must complete the mission entrusted by the lord." Zhou Cang said.

"Wenpin, Lejin, Gao Shun, Li Tong." Zhang Han said.

"Order the four of you to assist General Zilong in training the three armies, and now you will be incorporated into General Zilong's generals." Zhang Han said.

"Your subordinate obeys." The four responded in unison.

Zhao Lei stood up and said, "I hope everyone will work together to complete our tasks in the last month and lay a solid foundation for us to fight for the world in the future."

"The subordinates will do their best to live up to the lord's entrustment." Everyone replied.

Three days later, Zhang He and Gao Lan took a 1000-man army disguised as businessmen to send money and food to Yangzhou. In order to avoid the attention of Zhang Jiao and other counties, they divided the 1000 people and left Jizhou in an orderly manner according to the plan. In progress.The successful ones were not noticed by other forces.

After the transport troops left, Zhao Lei ordered the city gate to be closed. Zhao Yun led five thousand soldiers to sweep up Zhang Jiao's spies in the city and captured them all alive. Even those spies who were not captured could not leave the city and report to Zhang Jiao horn.All the spies captured alive were thrown into death row by Zhao Lei.

Ten days later, the news of Zhou Cang's assassination of Zhang Jiao's disciples Ma Yuanyi and Tangzhou came. At the same time, Zhou Cang sent his men to publicize Zhang Jiao's rebellion in Qingzhou, Yangzhou and other places, echoing Jia Xu's rumors in Julu and Bohai.

After Zhang Jiao heard the news, he raised troops in the starry night and was known as General Tiangong, his second brother Zhang Bao was known as General Digong, and his third brother Zhang Liang was known as General Rengong.Zhang Jiao used his reputation to summon the people and issued a call: "The luck of the Han Dynasty is coming to an end, and the great sage will come out. You should all obey the heavens and follow the righteousness, so as to enjoy peace." , followed Zhang Jiao to rebel and overthrow the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Jiao raised an army of 2 horses to attack the Bohai Julu Plain and other counties in Jizhou, and sent someone to inform Zhao Lei to attack Yecheng, Baima and other counties from the shore of Changshan Mountain.His second brother Zhang Bao led an army of 15 tigers and wolves to attack the whole of Qingzhou.Zhang Liang led [-] elite troops to attack the three counties of Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou.The rest of Zhang Jiao's disciples led [-] horses to attack the princes of Youzhou. A total of [-] horses swept half of the Han Dynasty.Emperor Ling learned that at this time he sent General He Jin, Zhonglang General Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun to send [-] troops to attack.

At this point, the prelude to the chaos of the world has begun, and the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising also represents the weakening of the Liu court.
