Chapter 188: Shock in the Court and the Wild

Since Peng Fei's Yellow Turban army was taken down, no one has come to disturb Su Fan's side. And since Guan Hai was defeated in Langya, he also left Langya Commandery and went to plunder in Qingzhou.

In Xuzhou, there is no large-scale Yellow Turban Army, and most of the remaining are small-scale Yellow Turban Army scattered in various places.

In fact, it is not certain whether they are from the Yellow Turban Army.

After all, many wandering bandits also like to pretend to be Yellow Turbans to ravage the surroundings.

With one-third more population, and even in these days, because the Yellow Turbans are poisoning Xuzhou, Su Fan also sent people to gather refugees around Donghai.

This made the population here more and more.

He has always refused no one. In just half a year, it has increased by more than two million people.

It is also thanks to Gaoyang and the others who desperately caught fish from the sea. Otherwise, in his territory, I am afraid that he really could not support three million people, especially with seven thousand troops to support.

These are astronomical figures.

However, as long as he persists for a year, the wasteland he opened up will also begin to be cultivated, and next year will be a big harvest.

By that time, three million will be enough.

In the blink of an eye, the first year of Zhongping has passed for seven months.

The Yellow Turbans are still ravaging the Divine Han land. Although the imperial court sent troops to suppress them, especially the million imperial guards, they went to three directions to suppress them, Jizhou, Yuzhou, and Sili, etc.

However, the Yellow Turban Army is indeed not that simple to be suppressed.

In this extraordinary world, personal strength also has a great impact on war.

Especially some powerful Soul Dao literati, they cast spells and divine abilities, and can even locally change some mountains and rivers, making the war move towards their advantageous side.

There are many Soul Dao literati in the Yellow Turban Army, especially in the Taiping Palace of the Taiping Dao, where there are many masters cultivated by Zhang Jiao.

Most of these masters, although they are in the Soul-Nourishing Realm, also have a part who have reached the Soul-Refining Realm.

And even if it is the Soul-Nourishing Realm, once the quantity reaches a certain number, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and when combined, the spells released are also extremely amazing.

More importantly, these masters can all cast Yellow Turban warriors. Even if one person can only sacrifice ten Yellow Turban warrior runes,

that is already not bad.

Yellow Turban warriors, the weakest combat power is comparable to martial artists at the fifth level of Qi-Refining, and they have infinite strength, high defense, and do not know pain, which is quite terrifying.

It is extremely effective for charging the formation.

Therefore, in the past six months, the imperial guards of the imperial court have fought with the Yellow Turban Army many times. Although most of them have won, they have not destroyed the Yellow Turban Army in a formed manner.

As long as you don't eliminate those channel commanders and Taiping Dao masters, even if you defeat their hundreds of thousands or millions of troops, it will have no effect.

After the rout, they can soon gather a batch of people, and then it is an army again.

What's more, the imperial guards are not invincible. Most of the Yellow Turban Army are mobs, but there are also some who are brave and good at fighting.

For example, the Bo Cai army in the Yingchuan area. Bo Cai's appearance this time shocked the court and the wild of the Divine Han.

The Yellow Turban Army under his command is only a million, but the combat effectiveness is quite good, and he himself is a very deep Soul Dao literati.

Cooperating with the masters in the army, casting the Cloud Thunder Battle Formation, he defeated the imperial army's attack many times, and instead suppressed the imperial court's army, which could only rely on the big city of Yingchuan to block his attack.

It can be said that this army of Bo Cai is the most eye-catching Yellow Turban channel commander besides Zhang Jiao in Jizhou.

Other channel commanders have been defeated by the government, or even routed.

However, Bo Cai instead defeated the imperial army's army. You must know that he is facing the imperial guards.

It is not that the imperial army is incompetent, but that Bo Cai's army is indeed extraordinary. He is not like other channel commanders who recruit people frantically. The million-strong army under his command is all strong and strong, without any burden of women and children.

And he is proficient in battle formations, plus his own Soul Dao cultivation, at least at the fourth level of Soul-Refining. In the imperial army, it is very difficult to use schemes.

Coupled with a group of masters, and two Gang-Refining martial generals assisting, the imperial army has no way to deal with him at all.

In the imperial army, there are also fierce generals who can fight a thousand, but in the great battle, the Yellow Turban warriors who are not afraid of death, and the Cloud Thunder Battle Formation cast by Bo Cai, even fierce generals at the sixth level of Gang-Refining cannot hold it.

In several great battles, the imperial army has already lost two military officers at the Gang-Refining Realm, even if these two are at the first or second level of Gang-Refining.

Losing soldiers and generals, this is the current situation of the imperial army in Yingchuan.

And as the news of Bo Cai defeating the imperial army spread, the surrounding Yellow Turban Army also began to gather towards him.

So when it was August in the first year of Zhongping, millions of Yellow Turban Army poured into Yingchuan Commandery.

The entire Yingchuan Commandery, except for a few cities, was in the hands of the government, and the others had already been broken.

And once the seat of Yingchuan Commandery, Yangzhai City, is broken, the entire Yingchuan Commandery will also fall.

It also means that more than half of Yuzhou will fall.

There are quite a few Yellow Turban Army in Yuzhou, with tens of millions. The most prosperous places in Yuzhou are Yingchuan and Runan.

Yingchuan here, because there are many aristocratic clans, it can be said that several first-class aristocratic clans in the Divine Han are in Yingchuan, such as the Xun clan, the Chen clan, etc.

These are all first-class aristocratic clans. Many aristocratic clans also mean high development.

Runan is the same. Runan and Nanyang have always been among the most prosperous commanderies in the Divine Han.

The essence of the entire Yuzhou is in these two commanderies. Once these two commanderies fall, the entire Yuzhou will be rotten.

This is also a very serious blow to the imperial court.

So the imperial court also attaches great importance to it, and again sent a part of the imperial guards to support, and aristocratic clans and powerful clans in various places also began to support.

Han Lingdi relaxed the suppression of aristocratic clans and ordered local areas to organize forces to suppress the Yellow Turbans.

Aristocratic clans and powerful clans, at this moment, no longer have any restraint.

The Yellow Turban broke out, and it has been less than a year, but the commanderies and counties that have fallen in the world almost occupy one-third of the world.

And as time goes by, there will be more and more.

In these more than half a year, the aristocratic clans and powerful clans that disappeared are countless.

By now, aristocratic clans and powerful clans are also a bit afraid, especially those powerful clans at the commandery and county level. They can even ignore the local officials in the local area, because these officials, once they leave them, want to govern a place, which is quite difficult.

But the Yellow Turban Army doesn't care. They come, not to govern, they come to destroy, they come to plunder.

Especially aristocratic clans and powerful clans, these people have far more wealth than those commoners. They naturally like to plunder these families.

The little power of aristocratic clans and powerful clans, facing tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of Yellow Turban Army, simply cannot hold it. ===== CHAPTER 189 =====
