 Yellow Turban Rebellion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yellow Turban Rebellion, sometimes also translated as the Yellow Scarves Rebellion, (Traditional Chinese: 黃巾之亂; Simplified Chinese: 黄巾之乱, pinyin: Huáng Jīn Zhī Luàn) was a 184 AD peasant rebellion against Emperor Lingdi of the Han Dynasty of China.
A major cause of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was an agrarian crisis, in which famine forced many farmers and former military settlers in the north to seek employment in the south, where large landowners took advantage of the labor surplus and amassed large fortunes.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion was led by Zhang Jiao (who is referred to as Zhang Jue in the Moss Roberts' English translation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms) and his two younger brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, who were born in the Ju Lu district of the Ye Prefecture.

His message spread through China's countryside and hundreds of thousands of believers donned yellow turbans as a symbol of the soil from which they drew their living and to mark themselves as Zhang Jue's followers.
The Imperial army, meanwhile, faced the pitifully unprepared Yellow Turbans and completely decimated the rebels, who so believed in the protection of their gods and the righteousness of their cause that many did not even carry weapons.
