Where did the leader Zhang Jiao come from at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty?
Opening angle (? -184), Julu (now Julu County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province). At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty in China, he was the leader of the Yellow Scarf Army and the founder of Taiping Road. Because he got the Taiping Jing from Taoist Yu Ji and others, he took religious salvation as his responsibility, organized the masses with some religious ideas and social and political thoughts, and preached in the early days of the establishment of Ning (168- 172). In the first year of Zhong Ping (184), Zhang Jiao called himself "the general god" and led the masses to launch an uprising with the slogan "Heaven dies, Huang Tian should stand, and the age is in Jiazi, and the world is prosperous", which was called "The Yellow Scarf Uprising" in history. Soon Zhang Jiao died of illness, and the insurgents were quickly suppressed by the Han Dynasty.
