Chapter 243 Psychological Warfare with the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans

Zhang Rang could understand the meaning of Liu Jian's words.

This is indeed something Dong Zhuo can do.

Dong Zhuo in this period was different from the one in history. He replaced He Jin and the eunuch forces and began a new round of competition with the rich and powerful.

Now Dong Zhuo has a large number of troops and is powerful to the ministers, but he still tries his best to label himself as a loyal minister, so he cannot touch the Emperor and the Queen Mother He.

But as a Liangzhou native, the relationship between Dong Zhuo and the royal family was not very solid after all, and the best way to consolidate the royal family and himself was nothing more than marriage.

It feels so wonderful to be the emperor's father-in-law.

And once this happens, he will become a real relative in name.

Although the idea is very beautiful, the nobles all over the world have already begun to make arrangements for this emperor's harem.

Liu Bian's Empress of the Tang Dynasty has now become a thorn in Dong Zhuo's side.

They even had the idea of ​​leading troops to directly attack Liu Jian in Licheng.

If Dong Zhuo took her back to Luoyang and abolished her, I am afraid that all the officials in the court would not agree.

Ever since, Liu Jian began to implement his plan.

All requests were agreed to by Liu Jian.

Fortunately, the two great commanders of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, Sima Ju and Xu He, were both sensible people.

But will this famous general have some moisture?

They have now also lost the ability to bargain with Liu Jian.

He has indeed made many achievements over the years, especially in the military field. Liu Jian has become a famous general.

The commanders and leaders of the Yellow Turban Army were also enlightened.

However, Liu Jian had no intention of sending troops to attack them.

The two parties can then fight each other.

Moreover, it would also cause conflicts between Dong Zhuo, the Emperor, and the Queen Mother He.

This Liu Jian doesn't seem so scary.

So, after a brief pause, the Yellow Turban Army once again launched a fierce offensive against the noble families in various counties.

Some time ago, during the pacification war in Jizhou, I heard that many local families supported Liu Jian.

The noble families in Qi, Le'an, and Beihai finally couldn't hold on any longer.

They also hope that more poor people will join them to continue to grow their team.

At that time, who will be the legitimate queen? This is a journey in muddy waters in a fundamental sense.

In the Battle of Luoyang, Liu Jian won a few small victories, but he never had a direct conflict with the Xiliang army.

In order to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Jian had planned for many days and conducted deductions with his generals.

The conditions have not changed at all, but this time the four major powers in Qingzhou will not bargain.

He knew very well what Liu Jian wanted to do, and he also knew very well what Dong Zhuo wanted to do.

Strength beats skill. Although Liu Jian's troops and horses were all elite, if they were accidentally distracted by the Yellow Turban Army, they would still suffer a major blow.

Liu Jian believed that it would not be difficult to attract some of these people and then engage in defensive warfare to defeat them.

If Liu Jian couldn't even open the gate to Qingzhou, how could he protect them?

How can we talk about defeating the Yellow Turban Army?

What people fear most is blind analysis.

After all, the Qingzhou Army has one million people, a large number of people, and the daily cost is huge.

It's not scary to make the other party feel like you have no strength.

If he hadn't been a coward, he would have been beaten long ago. Why is he still hiding in Licheng?

As a result, many commanders of the Yellow Turban Army did not know the heights of the world and began to be eager to try.

In fact, when the Yellow Turban commanders saw Liu Jian's army approaching the border of Qingzhou, they were still a little scared in their hearts.

The other side just stationed troops in Licheng.

Nowadays, most of the prominent families in Qingzhou from all over the country have been consumed by the Yellow Turban Army.

Finally, in desperation.

Led by the four major commanderies of Qingzhou's Tian family, Sun family, Zhong family, and Feng family, seventeen powerful families once again showed their goodwill to Liu Jian and asked him to send troops to help.

It's not that Liu Jian's army was so powerful, it was Liu Jian's reputation that was too loud.

Liu Jian had a hunch, although Dong Zhuo would be much more laborious than when he dominated the world in history.

Naturally, it is impossible for their supplies to be handed over to such a person.

The escort accompanying the army reminded Liu Jian that although the Yellow Turbans were a ragtag group, they were still too numerous.

This noble lady, who was born from the Tang family in Yingchuan, is truly impeccable in terms of status.

When Liu Jian refused to take action, the Yellow Turban Army began to lose heart and wanted to attack the landlords and rob the rich.

After all, Bao Xin, Liu Dai and many other local shepherds in history suffered heavy blows when they attacked Black Mountain and Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.

Therefore, Shen Pei formulated several strategies for Liu Jian.

After all, Luoyang is too chaotic, unsafe, and not conducive to the growth of little girls.

Even now, they still have the strength to fight against the Yellow Turbans, but in the end, the losses were too great.

Even Liu Jian couldn't help but praise Dong Zhuo's skill.

Then spread rumors that Liu Jian had hoarded a large amount of goods and grain in Licheng, and then showed off the Yellow Turban in a casual manner. This would attract some of the Yellow Turban Army commanders who did not have a high military level or culture.

Lead the troops to attack.

Some Yellow Turban Army commanders began to question Liu Jian's ability and reputation.

Therefore, when Liu Jian first arrived in Qingzhou, all the Fangqu commanders, big and small, did not let their troops continue to wreak havoc in Qingzhou.

Ever since, after learning from the pain, Dong Zhuo directly adopted the strategy of removing fuel from the bottom of the cauldron.

It is absolutely impossible to go directly to Licheng to attack Liu Jian.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo would not be defeated so easily.

The first is to camp in Licheng, show his hesitation to the Yellow Turban Army, and use this move to confuse the Yellow Turban Army.

This matter is not difficult for him. As long as he takes Empress Tang back to Yecheng, Dong Zhuo will immediately place women from his clan next to Liu Bian.

No matter how many people there are in the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, which of their various leaders dares to claim to be able to rival Zhang Jiao?

Zhang Jiao was already dealt with by Liu Jian. Which of these generous and handsome Fang Qushuai of the Qingzhou Army dared to confront Liu Jian head-on?

It is said that the Qingzhou Army is said to be a million-strong army, but in fact, only less than one-tenth of the number can actually fight against the Jizhou Army as regular sergeants.

After some blind analysis by the Yellow Turban Army, everyone discovered that Liu Jian was actually a useless wimp.

Therefore, we had to wait until Liu Jian opened the gate to the hinterland of Qingzhou before the supplies from the noble families could gradually arrive at his army.

Liu Jian is a very dedicated person.

Moreover, Dong Zhuo really couldn't find a suitable reason to depose the queen and then install a woman from his own clan as the queen. This is definitely unjustifiable.

But his behavior was nothing short of the best for the Han Dynasty.

The imperial court simply turned a blind eye to Liu Jian's action of standing still.

This method is definitely not suitable for generals and lieutenants who have a higher background or have a lot of battle experience.

They stationed their troops in strategic locations, secretly united, and were ready to deal with Liu Jian's attack at any time.

Especially for the current Yellow Turban Army, the most ordinary people are their most powerful source of troops.

Liu Jin is also a veteran, and he is no less sophisticated than Liu Jian in this regard.

Anyway, Dong Zhuo must have said that the daughter of his family was a legitimate queen.

But no matter how hard he fought, Dong Zhuo still achieved his goal.

………

Liu Jian agreed with the review.

And this basic group of people is undoubtedly the poor.

If you think about it carefully, in the battle of Xianbei, Lu Zhi was protecting him.

That is, if the Yellow Turban Army wants to continue to develop, it must establish its own base of people.

They also made plans to rob the important families in Qingzhou of their food and weapons.

He sent someone to tell Liu Jian, asking Uncle Liu not to send the Tang women back to Luoyang, but to go directly to Yecheng with King Chen Liu.
