In response to the overall situation of the Yellow Turban rebellion, Huangfu Song submitted a letter, asking Emperor Ling to stop accumulating money, take out the money from the West Garden to reward the soldiers, and recruit troops.

At the same time, lift the party and use the party members.

Emperor Ling is not stupid. Faced with the crisis of overturning the country, he can give up many things, such as money.

So Emperor Ling hesitated for a moment and agreed.

But for the latter request, Emperor Ling was unable to make up his mind.

At the critical moment, the confidant eunuch Lu Qiang, who was beside him, stood up and warned Emperor Ling.

Lu Qiang's words made Emperor Ling suddenly realize that this memorial might not be Huangfu Song's own intention, but the ultimatum of the scholars who were implicated in the party and bribery disaster to him, the emperor of the Han Empire.

That's what Lu Qiang said.

"The Party and the Forbidden City have accumulated for a long time. If you conspire with the Yellow Turbans, you will regret it without any help!"

At that moment, Emperor Ling seemed to see countless scholars staring at him with resentful eyes. His gaze was so resentful and so terrifying.

It seemed as if he could pierce him into his heart in the next second.

The Spirit Emperor suddenly woke up.

He realized that his rule needed the help and maintenance of these elites in society. Once they abandoned the Han Empire, the Han Empire would actually perish.

They have knowledge and can become officials under anyone’s hands!

Whether it is a change of dynasty or a generation, they monopolize knowledge and education, and they are just tumblers. Whoever becomes the emperor will cooperate with them. The emperor cannot do without them. This is their gold medal for avoiding death!

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was so powerful that the eight states had been attacked, and the Han Dynasty's rule was in danger.

This is something that the Spirit Emperor cannot accept no matter what.

In his opinion, neither of these two things is good, but the two evils are the least. In order to keep the Han Empire alive, he would rather choose to let the scholars re-enter the world and take power again.

At worst, I will continue to help the eunuchs afterwards.

So on March 1, Emperor Ling announced a general amnesty for the party members and issued a party and a ban on the party and imprisonment, so that scholars who were exiled to the border would return to their hometowns.

At the same time, the ministers and ministers were asked to donate horses and crossbows to prepare for military funds, and to elect descendants of the generals and those with a deep understanding of strategies from the people to go to the Public Vehicle Administration for interviews and prepare for combat.

It has to be said that the compromise and surrender of Emperor Ling is very meaningful.

The old machine of the Eastern Han Empire could still barely operate.

During the ten days, all parties mobilized, and representatives of various forces gathered together to discuss strategies to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, and selected generals to spy on the enemy's situation, which was quite a demonstration of collective efforts.

What happened after that was enough to prove that the biggest source of power for the Yellow Turban invasion was not Zhang Jiao, nor the local tyrants, but the gentry.

Only the gentry who have complete knowledge of the scriptures and master a considerable number of local human and material resources can provide complete strategic and tactical support.

Only they are qualified to support Zhang Jiao in overthrow of the Han Empire.

Once the aristocrats decide to stop their actions, the Yellow Turban Army will be abandoned in fact.

Such a massive "uprising" started out like a tiger, and then it was put down in less than a year...

I thought it was a king, but it turned out to be just bronze.

Isn't it scientific?

In fact, after a little calculation, Zhang Jiao began to preach at the beginning of Emperor Ling Jianning until the seventh year of Guanghe, which was highly consistent with the duration of the Second Party and Prison Disaster.

Then Emperor Ling compromised, lifted the party shackles, and after lifting the party shackles, the Han Empire re-represented the interests of the scholars, so the backup spokesperson they chose Zhang Jiao lost its meaning of existence.

Emperor Ling and the gentry reached an agreement, acknowledged the result and did not pursue each other.

Then the gentry gave up their support for the Yellow Turban Army, withdrew their investments in the middle, and abandoned them.

Then Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun rushed to Yingchuan to attack the Yellow Turban Army.

So Guo Peng privately speculated that it was not Lu Zhi who decided whether the turmoil could be quelled, not Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, but Ling Emperor himself.

If he lifts the party and the shackles, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will be quelled. If he doesn't lift it, Zhang Jiao will become the new emperor, not Zhang Jiao, but Li Jiao Wang Jiao.

Because scholars have had enough, and Taiping Road is just a tool to be used.

Emperor Ling was also confused. Why did he think that he could mobilize the party and imprison the scholars, but the scholars could not use the "Yellow Turban Rebellion" to retaliate?

They monopolize knowledge and local interests, and have the strength and capital to challenge Lingdi, but they cannot blatantly and need a fig leaf.

This was one afternoon after that, Lu Zhi asked Guo Peng to drink. After drinking a little more, Lu Zhi sighed and revealed some information to Guo Peng, so that Guo Peng himself understood.

He didn't know if there was any mistake in his understanding, but he knew that the hands of the gentry were definitely not clean.

Lu Zhi should have more than that, but Lu Zhi didn't seem to be planning to finish it all in one breath.

Perhaps Lu Zhi really doesn't want to say too thoroughly, and he will probably be scared by Lu Zhi himself.

Some things need to be understood by yourself.

What Guo Peng realized made his hair stand up and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

But Guo Peng was young and had a strong ability to accept, so on the way home, Guo Peng laughed out loud.

It’s still too naive to laugh at myself.

With such careful actions, why do I naively think that it is just an ordinary peasant uprising?

Isn’t it normal for the ruling group to use some high-level means to use infighting?

Isn’t it normal to use all living things as chess pieces to obtain benefits?

It’s a pity that those people, those who are confused by the noise, and those who just want to have enough food, have all become victims.

But it doesn't matter, there are still 50 million victims like this.

Death slowly, 20 million will die, 30 million will die, and 20 million will die, and 10 million will die.

There are not many other big men, there are a lot of victims, and they reproduce very quickly, one by one.

Guo Peng looked up at the surroundings and felt that what he saw was all chess pieces, and the one who held the chess was hiding behind the scenes.

Guo Peng suddenly felt an invisible hand on his head, and gently pinched himself, and then placed it in a pre-set position.

Nothing goes beyond their presets.

Now thinking about it, as Zhang Jiao’s disciple, Tang Zhou has a low status in the Yellow Turban Army. He should be a type of person who supports the Yellow Turban Army. Why did he suddenly report the news?

No records.

Strange, very strange, very strange.

Could it be that someone is instructing him behind his back?

Taking a deep breath, Guo Peng slowly exhaled this breath.

"Finally, I'm qualified to be a chess piece...Hahahahaha..."

He lowered his head, suppressed his emotions, and laughed in a low voice.

She smiles extremely cunningly.

Shaoqing, he stopped smiling, raised his head and looked indifferently ahead of him.

What I see is clearly a pure world, but for some reason it falls into my eyes, but it is black. Although I don’t see my five fingers, I always feel very uncomfortable.

And an equally black emotion was raging in his heart.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Don't you really treat them as human beings?

They are not worthy of being human?

You are human?

They are all ants?

Don't even have the qualifications to live?

you……

You all should die and experience the feeling of despair.

Experience the despair and fear of those who do not regard as human beings but are actually human beings like you.

This may be better for you.

Being tall and above, thinking that you have become a god?

A century-old dynasty and a thousand-year-old family, right?

Everything is an ant, right?

There are no poor families and no nobles, right?

Damn it, all deserve to die.

Guo Peng suddenly had this idea.

At this moment, two tears came out of Guo Peng's eyes and flowed down his cheeks.

Guo Peng was shocked and immediately put away the emotion, reached out to wipe away the two inexplicable tears.

No, no, I can't think like this now, absolutely not.

Be happy, be happy, and have the responsibility and sense of responsibility as a chess piece.

Yes, from today on, make a competent chess piece, facing the sea, spring is in full bloom, and climb up step by step.

Then……

Then what to do?
Chapter completed!
