Qianyang Palace, including Yuan Palace.
Huang Wan, who was holding a wat board, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, turned his head to Liu Ji next to him and said, "Liu Shangshu, it's up to you to report it."
Liu Bowen nodded, stood up with a calm face, and reported: "Your Majesty, the military department has just received an eight-hundred-mile rush from General Xu Gongming from Luling.
In Jiaozhou, there is a person surnamed Hong Taizi Xiuquan who claims to be the reincarnation of a great sage and good teacher, and bewitches the people to join his Taiping Dao."
Since being blown up by his son Liu Yu, Liu Wei has already guessed that this Hong XX is Hong Xiuquan, the leader of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the late Qing Dynasty, but he didn't expect him to be demagogic as the reincarnation of Zhang Jiao.
"When Zhang Jiao was in trouble, there were two brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang to assist, this Hong Taike can have helpers," Liu Wei asked in a deep voice.
Liu Ji nodded: "Zhang Jiao only has two brothers to help, this Hong Tai has more helpers, in addition to Hong Tai himself is a guy who is good at rhetoric and demagoguery, there are several other capable guys as his minions."
They are Yang Ping's character Xiuqing, Xiao Tian's character Chaogui, and Wei Guo's character Changhui, all of whom are treacherous people."
Huang Wan added beside him: "What Berwyn said is extremely true, Hong Tai encouraged the people to join the Taiping Dao in Jiaozhou as the reincarnation of a great sage and good teacher, and sure enough, many Zhang Jiao's remnants quietly went south from the deep mountains and jungles at the junction of Jingnan and Yangzhou to join Hong Tai's men.
In less than a year, with the help of Yang Ping, Xiao Tian, Wei Guo and others, Hong Tai has gathered tens of thousands of armed forces, and there are hundreds of thousands of believers. ” "Hey, the god stick is the god stick, and you can still be a god stick in a different dynasty," Liu Wei praised in his heart.
There are only 16.7 million people in the entire Jiaozhou area, and this Hong Xiuquan has developed hundreds of thousands of believers in less than a year, which is the level of an absolute MLM grandmaster if it is left before he crosses over.
Liu Bowen continued: "Just a month ago, in the name of preaching, Hong Tai infiltrated Shixie's entrenched lair, and led 100,000 believers to raise troops in the middle of the night, killing Shixie, Shiyi brothers and more than 10,000 henchmen, and collecting more than 50,000 of his subordinates.
The Taiping Dao believers in the seven counties under the rule of Jiaozhou have responded to Hong Tai, and now the entire Jiaozhou has become the world of Taiping Dao. ” "This Hong Tai is indeed powerful, the speed of development of Jiaozhou Taiping Road is really incredible, it is even more fierce than the Yellow Turban Rebellion led by the Zhang Jiao brothers back then, and it is even more unexpected."
Lu Kang, who was over the age of six, stroked his gray beard beside him, full of emotion.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion has just been pacified, and the Taiping Road in the south has revived, and if you want to make the world peaceful, the monarchs and ministers of the Han Dynasty still have a long way to go.
Liu Bowen continued to state Xu Huang's information: "After Hong Tai destroyed Shixie, he forcibly promoted Taiping Dao in Jiaozhou, and if anyone dared not believe it, they would be dealt with according to the Taiping Law, and the people of Jiaozhou could only become believers in Taiping Dao in order to protect themselves.
Moreover, this Hong Tai's demagogic ability can be called unprecedented, and his influence has entered the territory of Linyi State, just after Hong Tai controlled the seven counties and fifty-one counties of Jiaozhou, the three counties under the jurisdiction of the Linyi State adjacent to Jiaozhou, twenty-five county seats, and nearly 300,000 people also worshiped under the Taiping Road."
Under the Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou already covered parts of Vietnam before Liu Wei crossed, including the Vietnamese capital Hanoi, Thanh Hoa Province, and parts of Quang Tri Province.
The state of Linyi is a country established by the Vietnamese natives in the late Han Dynasty, including Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and other countries before Liu Wei's crossing, with a population of more than one million, and is an independent monarchy.
This Hong Xiu's whole army took the land of the three counties of Linyi with his rhetoric without blood, and he couldn't accept it After Hong Tai gained a firm foothold in Jiaozhou, he gathered hundreds of thousands of strong believers, known as a million army, claiming to be the general of Tiangong, Yang Ping calling himself the general of the earth, and Xiao Tian calling himself the general of the Rengong, and these three people were called the three princes.
Wei Guo was canonized as the Shenggong General by Hong Tai, Li Xiucheng was named the Rengong General, and Chen Yucheng was named the Yigong General, and these three people were called the Lower Three Dukes.
These six soldiers began to raise troops in two ways."
Liu Bowen held a feather fan in his hand and made a report with a heavy face, "Wei Guo and Li Xiucheng led some Taiping Dao believers to claim 300,000 and began to attack Linyi Kingdom westward from the territory of Jiuzhen County.
And Hong Tai and Yang Ping led the believers from Puguan through the mountains, known as 800,000, into the southern area of Yangzhou, the momentum is huge, all the way down to Nanye, Nan'an, Pingyang, Ganxian, Jieyang and other county seats, straight to Luling.
Xu Gongming is currently retreating to Gaochang and defending against all odds.
The Taiping army is huge, and it is expected that the troops will come to the city in about ten days."
"Hiss, 800,000," Liu Wei gasped.
It's really not a family that doesn't enter the door, no wonder they are all surnamed Taiping, this Hong Xiuquan's way of using troops is really in the same vein as the Yellow Turban Army, bluffing, and strengthening their prestige is the essence of their strategy.
The 800,000-strong army is estimated to be as old as 60 years old, down to 5-year-old children, and even those who just need to breathe The low combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army was terrifying, and the millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans in history were broken by Cao Cao with 50,000 regular troops and all of them were absorbed.
In March last year, Qin Qiong and Chang Yuchun led 40,000 regular troops to chase after the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans all the way, fighting from Qingzhou to Yanzhou, winning 25 battles, and finally capturing nearly 100,000 strong and strong, and collecting 780,000 old and weak women and children.
It can be seen that although the number of yellow turbans in Qingzhou is large, they are only afraid that they are even worse than the rabble "However, the Taiping army led by Hong Xiuquan is afraid that it cannot be underestimated" Liu Wei's eyes frowned slightly, and he thought to himself in his heart.
First of all, the Taiping Rebellion 1,600 years later swept half of the Manchu Qing Dynasty with a devastating momentum, and maintained the regime for about ten years, which shows that the leader of the Taiping Army is definitely capable, and it is estimated that the comprehensive ability is far above the three Zhang Jiao brothers.
And this time, the core six members of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom came together and swept Jiaozhou with a sweeping momentum, which should not be underestimated.
The only thing that made Liu Wei feel fortunate was that Shi Dakai, who had the strongest comprehensive ability in the Taiping Army, appeared early and threw himself under Liu Bei's camp, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
"Shi Dakai broke out more than a year earlier than Hong Xiuquan, I don't know if he has anything to do with Taiping Dao If Bashu borders Jiaozhou, Shi Dakai will inevitably become an unstable factor, fortunately, there are Jingnan and Yunnan in the middle."
Liu Wei groaned secretly in his heart.
But in addition to Shi Dakai, Yang Xiuqing and Xiao Chaogui were also handsome people who commanded an army of more than 100,000 people, Wei Changhui and Chen Yucheng were among the few fierce generals in the million-dollar Taiping army, and with the resourceful Li Xiucheng, as well as Hong Xiuquan, who was scheming and good at demagoguery, the threat index in the south soared dozens of times at once.
Secondly, the Taiping army in Jiaozhou was not just composed of old and weak women and children, because Hong Xiuquan annexed Shixie's troops.
Even if this team has poor combat effectiveness due to the lack of famous generals, they are veterans who have been in the army for many years, with equipment and military experience, and there are quite a few of them, around 50,000.
The men and horses annexed from Shi Xie's men will inevitably become the core combat power of the Taiping army, and it must not be underestimated.
In addition to this force, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans who went south to Jiaozhou from the Central Plains to join Hong Xiuquan are also a force to be reckoned with.
After years of fighting, they can still survive, which shows that these people have some ability; And those who traveled thousands of miles to Jiaozhou to defect to Jiaozhou showed that they were ambitious and unwilling to be mediocre.
And ambition is bound to bring motivation to these people, this force plus the old department of Shixie, roughly there are 60,000 or 70,000 people, this is definitely an army that any corps must face Taking a step back, Hong Xiuquan's 800,000 horses can be regarded as a bluff, including the old, young, women and children, but it is estimated that there are still more than 100,000 strong men selected from them.
Coupled with the 60,000 or 70,000 veterans mentioned earlier, it is estimated that the combat strength of the Taiping Army is about 200,000.
And even if the other five or six hundred thousand old and weak women and children can't fight, they can be cannon fodder, rushing in front and kneeling on it to let you kill, and they can tire you half to death.

Carrying grain, digging trenches, and fortifications can all be strengthened, and seven or eight hundred thousand people swept across the mountains and fields, and the momentum was terrifying, which could break the confidence of the timid soldiers, and invisibly weaken the morale of their own side.
Liu Bowen continued to report on the military situation: "What's more serious is that according to the scouts captured by Xu Gongming's soldiers, the Taiping army and Sun Cejun have secretly connected. ” "These leaders of Taiping Dao are much stronger than the Zhang Jiao brothers, it is not surprising that they know how to cooperate with each other, it seems that they must be ready to deal with it" Liu Wei stretched out his hand and stroked his chin, muttering with a stern expression.
The war has started again, it seems that the marriage date of Na Diao Chan must be postponed again, and the war on the front line must not be tense, but the emperor is marrying a concubine in the rear, and he is having fun, so it will not chill the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies, Liu Wei will never do this Liu Bowen's bad news is not finished: "This is not counting, the Shanyue tribes that were originally pacified by Xu Huang and Lin Chong are now gradually rioting again, Huang Chao, Chen Ce, Peng Hu, and Fei Zhan in Jian'an County; Zulang, Shi Dan, Hua Dang and others in Poyang also plotted against each other, and gathered Shanyue bandits of different sizes in the southern counties, waiting for an opportunity to ask His Majesty to quickly gather his ministers and take countermeasures as soon as possible."
This time it was simply a prairie fire, Hong Xiuquan wanted to burn himself to death, Liu Wei couldn't sit still anymore: "Spread my will, immediately convene hundreds of civil and military officials to come to Qianyang Palace to discuss countermeasures" Finally, a special thanks, the last time was like a special thanks, because there are many trivial things in the hospital, so it was delayed to today and listed together to express gratitude.
