These remnants of the Yellow Turbans in the West Hexi area are none other than them.

It is Liu Zheng's old acquaintance, Liu Zheng's former boss Xiaoqu Shuai Yang Feng, Xiaoqu Shuai Guo Tai and others.

Back then, after they were separated from Liu Zheng in Yuzhou, they didn't have many soldiers and horses, and they knew that the Yellow Turban Army was at the end of their rope, so they didn't dare to continue to walk in Yingchuan under the sign of the Yellow Turban Army.

He could only take a part of the remnants and began to head north to the Hedong region.

Because of the Xiongnu people in the north all the year round, there are few people, and even this place in Hexi was originally the territory of the Han Dynasty, but because of the harassment of the Huns, the Han Dynasty has given up this area, and even the counties have been evacuated, and there are no counties.

This gave these Golden Turbans a place to recuperate temporarily, and they brought some old and sick, and thousands of people to a place called Baibo Valley, and began to live a self-sufficient life.

Not to mention, after a few years, they have allowed them to grow this team again, absorbing a lot of displaced people, and the original team of only a few thousand people has grown into tens of thousands in just a few years.

As soon as there are more people, there will be more soldiers and horses, and the ambition of more soldiers and horses will naturally come.

In addition, their former little brother Liu Zheng is now thriving in the south, they are very unhappy after hearing the news, and they want to go to Liu Zheng, but they can't pull this face, so they can only struggle by themselves, and want to learn from Liu Zheng to occupy a piece of territory in this troubled world and be their own soil emperor.

So they gathered people in the Baibo Valley in Hexi to revolt, continued to fight under the banner of the Yellow Turban Army, and began to attack the city.

This gave them the opportunity, so they began to attack the nearby city, first attacking Hedong County, and secondly, aiming at the entire state of Bingzhou.

And the soldiers and horses of the Southern Huns who happened to be in Fuluo were also nearby, and they saw these Yellow Turban troops attacking the city, as if it was very simple.

They also learned that they joined the invasion of the annexed states.

In this way, the inconspicuous Yellow Turban Army gradually became famous in Bingzhou, and actually defeated half of the state.

Originally, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban remnants were not taken seriously by the imperial court, but the imperial court was mobilizing troops at that time to recruit Liu Zheng and Yuan Shao, so they ignored these Yellow Turban remnants and thought that some Yellow Turban remnants could not make any big waves.

Who knew that the Yellow Turban Remnants would be very strong in their momentum, and they quickly went to Taihang Mountain after occupying Taiyuan, and there was another group of Yellow Turban Remnants here in Taihang Mountain.

These people should have been the Montenegrin Army commanded by Zhang Yan in history.

It's just that Zhang Yan took refuge in Liu Zheng and has died, and now the commander of the Montenegrin Army is a Yellow Turban Xiaoqu Marshal named Zhang Niujiao.

This person was also one of the thirty-six Xiaoqu Shuai under Zhang Jiao before.

It's just that the fall of the Yellow Turban Uprising later, so that these little canal commanders who did not die on the battlefield also dispersed.

Zhang Niujiao was under the call of Yang Feng and Guo Tai, and naturally did not want to be a bandit in this Taihang Mountain for the rest of his life, so he couldn't stand Yang Feng, and Guo Tai and his persuasion joined the ranks of the uprising with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Montenegro.

For a time, the Yellow Turban Army actually revived, Zhang Niujiao, Yang Feng, and Guo Tai attacked the city in Bingzhou under the banner of the Yellow Turban Army.

Without the annexation of the state, there would be less than 20,000 officers and soldiers in total.

At this time, in the face of the attack of Zhang Niujiao, Guo Tai and others, where can they be stopped? In just a few months, the entire annexed state fell.

At this time, the imperial court did not have extra soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress them, so they could only pursue a policy of pacification.

Send someone to contact these people and try to recruit them.

Zhang Niujiao, Guo Tai and others don't want to be bandits, they just want to be big officials like Liu Zheng, and the legacy of the Yellow Turban they inherited is not the orthodox Yellow Turban ambition at all, just a liar who thinks about their own interests and carries the banner of the Yellow Turban.

Therefore, as soon as the people sent out by the imperial court to recruit An appeared, they naturally agreed immediately.

In order to give these chaotic parties some opportunities not to make trouble for the time being, the imperial court also made a bloody investment.

not only gave Zhang Niujiao, a black mountain thief, the position of general in the peace of the trouble, but also officially announced their officialness, so that these black mountain thieves turned from anti-thieves to soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

The original Guo Tai and Yang Feng were two, one became the history of the state assassin, and the other became the pastor of the state, and even with that Yu Fuluo, they were also recognized by the Han Dynasty and canonized as Shan Yu of the Southern Xiongnu.

The Han court also understood that there were three regimes in the world, and it would be too stupid if they were still stingy with some superficial official positions and titles.

If you don't try your best to win over these Yellow Turban remnants and Black Mountain thieves at this moment, once they occupy the annexed state, and throw an olive branch to Yuan Shao's.

Then they will lose an important fighting force, lose an ally, and have an additional enemy.

As long as there are promises, there are official positions that have no practical effect, and the title is given to these Yellow Turban remnants and Montenegrin thieves, who at least submit to the Han on the surface.

And once the relationship with them is not harmonious, causing these Yellow Turban remnants and Black Mountain thieves to directly take refuge in Yuan Shao, these people can also be rewarded in Yuan Shao's court.

After weighing the pros and cons, the court still knew what to do.

In this way, the crisis of the state was temporarily solved, and Lu Zhi also seconded these soldiers and horses of the Southern Xiongnu from the state to encircle and suppress the matter of Xiliang.

Of course, these things don't have much to do with Liu Zheng.

It's just that he was a little surprised when he heard the information from all over the country that came back from all over the country.

Especially when I heard that Dong Zhuo was actually dead, Xiliang Han Sui Ma Teng rose, and the Baibo Army and the Black Mountain Army actually got together.

These things made Liu Zheng, who owned the entire south, a little surprised, but it didn't have much to do with him at this time, anyway, he didn't have enough strength for the Northern Expedition in a short period of time.

Anyway, in a short period of time, he must let the places where the big war has just occurred in various places under his command first recuperate and restore people's livelihood, Jingzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places are a mess, waiting for him to clean up.

The harvest in October was not bad, at least this winter there was no shortage of grain and grass under his command.

Although the recent war was over, he had two or three months to leave the capital, and he did not deal with the many pieces of the backlog of imperial government affairs waiting for him to deal with.

Enough for him to keep busy for a while.
