PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

Before the Battle of Mount Tai began, many princes were secretly proud in their hearts, thinking that Li Yi would take off a layer of skin if he didn't die this time. Because the strength of the Yellow Turban Army is too strong, and Li Yi's own strength is too small, even if you add Gongsun Zhan and Ding Yuan's army, it is only about 30,000 people.

With such strength, it would be a dream to deal with an army of more than a million Yellow Turbans. After all, even if the combat strength of the Yellow Turban Army is worse, but the absolute number is there, fifty times that of Li Yi's army, they can't see that the Yellow Turban Army has a reason to lose.

As for Li Yi sending reinforcements to the battlefield of Mount Tai, these princes have not thought about it, but in their opinion, it is completely impossible, because Mount Tai is too far away from the northern frontier, thousands of miles away, even if there are more troops in the northern frontier, it is far from quenching the thirst of the near, and the whip is beyond the reach.

However, when the war really started, they found that the reinforcements that they thought would never have appeared on the land of Qingzhou, and the number was unexpectedly large, as high as 50,000!

The princes never imagined that they could use a fleet to transport 50,000 troops across the sea and to the battlefield at once.

Like these princes, who couldn't understand this fact, there was also Sima Ju, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, who fled the battlefield.

At the northern foot of Mount Tai, Sima Ju finally gathered some of the Yellow Turban Army routs who escaped through Mount Tai, but he did not have the slightest joy in his heart.

"Ah......" Sima Ju couldn't help but roar loudly, and the anger and unwillingness that had been pent up in his heart for a long time seemed to suddenly erupt at this moment. He thought of his countless dead companions, of the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao, and of the yellow Tianzi battle flag fluttering in the air.

He yelled as hard as he could. Let the tears roll down from your eyes, and then melt into the Tarzan earth under your feet.

"Heaven...... Dead ......"

Before being taken in by Zhang Jiao and joining Taiping Dao, Sima Ju was an orphan and a beggar, struggling to die every day. My biggest dream is to have a full meal.

Life is very difficult, but this is not the saddest, what makes Sima Ju the most sad is that he has no idea why he is so unhappy. Whenever he begged for something to temporarily suppress his heart-scratching hunger, or was so hungry that he couldn't sleep, he pondered the question, but there was never an answer.

Until Zhang Jiao rescued him and pointed him in the direction. Only then did he realize that it was not himself who was wrong, nor was it many people like him, it was this world that was wrong!

The way of the world is unfair.

No matter how big the natural disaster is, within the walls of the wealthy family, there is always a scene of singing and dancing, and the emperor is even more poor and luxurious; On the other hand, the people are starving everywhere, and countless people die of cold and starvation every winter. Among them is Sima Ju's father.

Such a day is long overdue; Only for the eyes of the wealthy family. It should have been smashed!

Therefore, he took up the sword of war, and with the determination to die, he followed behind the great sage and good teacher with many people like him, to do the thing that changed the heavens and the earth.

However. The Great Virtuous and Good Master failed, the incident began in February, and the army failed at the end of August, and the uprising lasted only half a year. Although Sima Ju was in Qingzhou, he did not face the suppression of the current hussar general Li Yi, the original cavalry general. And escaped with his life, but was plagued by new doubts, and he could not find the reason for the failure of the uprising.

Is the great sage and good teacher not wise enough? Is it that the believers are not brave enough, determined enough, not large enough?

If it weren't for this, it could only be that the power of this unfair world was too strong and could not be overthrown by manpower.

Confused, Sima Ju became confused, and gradually, he found that he had deviated from the real Taiping Dao, and was no different from the ubiquitous bandits and bandits in Qingzhou.

It can't be said that there is no one at all, with the martial arts and art of war learned in the Taiping Sect, he is one of the outstanding and most powerful among the thieves in Qingzhou.

Unfortunately, none of this helped to solve the confusion in his heart.

The appearance of the celebrity Xu Yu once gave him hope, but despite his hard work, the reality still made him desperate. Still the same man who gave the Yellow Turbans a nightmare, he led his army and strangled the hope of the Yellow Turbans.

The moment he heard the news that the Northern Xinjiang army appeared behind him, Sima Ju almost thought that he was dead, or that he was dreaming, dreaming of the scene in Jizhou six years ago. No, what is in front of you is more unbelievable and difficult to accept than it has been.

At that time, although the Yellow Turbans had a large number of people and a huge influence in Jizhou, the actual situation was far from being as beautiful as it seemed.

Although the soldiers were brave, they could not go beyond the high and thick city walls, except for those cities that had been arranged in advance and had internal responses in the city, most of the counties and counties of Jizhou were intact.

First Lu Zhi went north with heavy troops, and then Li Yi led a large army south from Youzhou, the soldiers and horses under their command were well-equipped and well-trained, and the Yellow Turban Army, which lacked food and clothing, and even did not have complete weapons, was completely incompatible.

This year, however, it was different.

Qingzhou is different from Jizhou, after years of war, the heroes in the territory have long died, those who fled, and those who are still in the territory are only left to hide in the city and tremble, which is not a threat at all.

In terms of the government, Qingzhou Mu Liu Yu and Beihai County Shoukong Rong are so inadequate, there are very few people who are not self-sufficient, not to mention the suppression of bandits, and even self-protection is very reluctant, and the Qingzhou group of thieves has never been hindered.

As for the Yellow Turban Army, he even found strong reinforcements and broke several cities one after another. Not to mention the gathering of nearly two million, and after getting the armor, grain and grass of those counties and counties that were breached, even the logistics problems that plagued the rebels the most were solved.

Under such circumstances, Sima Ju really couldn't figure it out, how could such an army lose?

A ship carrying tens of thousands of troops across the sea? How could there really be such a thing in this world?

However, it was the case that 50,000 elite troops from northern Xinjiang appeared in their rear, and they first defeated the Yellow Turban Army in Linzi City, and then cut off the back route of their own army, together with Li Yi and Gongsun Zhan. Attack your own army on three sides.

As more and more soldiers appeared in the camp, Sima Ju was completely desperate.

There was no food and grass inside, and there were no rescuers outside, and the huge more than 100,000 yellow scarves came to a desperate situation overnight. It is not comparable to the Jizhou Yellow Turban that was in an unfavorable situation back then, fought and retreated, and was brave and unyielding.

This defeat came so suddenly, too inexplicably.

"The sky ......" looked up at the sky. Sima Ju roared wildly, and besides that, he couldn't find any way to vent the depression and grief in his heart.

The hateful sky, why did a character like Li Yi descend, it only brought despair to people.

Not to mention that with the arrival of the rout, the high-pitched morale has collapsed in an instant, and the million-strong army is now all captured by Li Yi, and the rout gathered under his own command has been defeated. But two or three thousand. Even if it is still the same as before, the morale of the army is still there, and the army of millions is still there, but with the coming of the scorching heat and the exhaustion of food and grass, Sima Ju can't come up with any countermeasures.

Advance, no soldiers to fight, retreat. There is no place to stand. After losing the huge army under his command, Sima Ju felt that he had reached the end of his rope. Those who once hid in the city and shivered. I will definitely take this opportunity to rush out of the city again and come to exterminate the scattered rebel army like myself. In the face of absolutely superior equipment, a rabble like themselves will definitely not be their opponents.

"Qu Shuai!" A pro-soldier ran over against the scorching sun, interrupting Sima Ju's roar.

Sima Ju was not angry. He didn't have the strength to be angry with others, he was just very confused, because the voice of the pro-soldier was clearly full of excitement. When he turned his head to look, he was even more surprised. The pro-soldier is clearly smiling on his face!

Laugh at this time?

"Out of ...... What's wrong? Sima Ju's voice was hoarse, with a hint of trill, he didn't know what news could save everyone in such a desperate situation, but he knew that his guards should not be crazy.

"The hussar general has sent a messenger!" The pro-soldier said loudly.

"What did he send a messenger for?" Sima Ju asked.

The soldier said: "The messenger of the hussar general said that the hussar general has found a way out for everyone!" ”

"A way out? Could it be ......" Sima Ju's heart moved.

With a stomach full of doubts, Sima Ju returned to the Chinese army.

Many people gathered outside the tent, and many more people braved the scorching sun to rush over, and the originally lifeless camp suddenly became angry, but Sima Ju's mood was very heavy.

Right now, the only way out he can think of is to surrender, give up his dreams, kneel at the feet of the powerful again, and pray for the other party's gifts, so that he can get some scraps and survive.

Sima Ju didn't want to do this, but he also knew that he couldn't use his own rules to bind everyone, and for most people, survival was the first thing.

"The Taiping sect members laid down their arms and returned to the rule of the imperial court, and the hussar general promised not to blame the past, and helped everyone move to the north and rebuild their homes......" The envoy's expression was calm, and his tone was light, as if he was saying something inconsequential.

The conjecture was verified, and the taste in Sima Ju's heart became even more bitter, and he wanted to say something several times, but he couldn't say anything. He knew that this was the only way for him and his brothers to survive. In today's Han Dynasty, only the hussar generals can tolerate them, the former Yellow Turban Army. This has been verified in the past few years, and the rest of the county guards are all killing the Yellow Turban Army under their rule, only the Hussar General will not kill any Yellow Turban Army who has laid down their arms, and will even allocate land to them to help them rebuild their homes.

Looking at the expectant eyes of his brothers, Sima Ju couldn't say no words of refusal after all, and gritted his teeth and said "I agree".

As he spoke, a deafening cheer rang out in the camp.

With the surrender of Sima Ju, Li Yi's behavior of surrendering the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in various parts of Qingzhou became smoother.

When the time entered July, all the Yellow Turban troops in Qingzhou surrendered unconditionally, including Guan Hai, who had been let go by Li Yi, and also led hundreds of cavalry to surrender to Li Yi.

Qingzhou was finally pacified.
