Chapter 269: Lin Yi Country
Shi Xie hurriedly found Liu Zheng.
"My lord, there is news from Rinan County, saying that there are soldiers and horses attacking our county."
As soon as Shi Xie entered the door and found Liu Zheng, he blurted out, which immediately made Liu Zheng stunned.
He immediately couldn't react, Rinan County, isn't it the southernmost county of Jiaozhou, the location in Vietnam in history, although it now belongs to Jiaozhou, but the place where Jiaozhou is gathered is not close, just sending soldiers and horses to it, it will take more than ten days to arrive.
And how could that place be attacked by others?
Liu Zheng couldn't figure it out.
"What's going on, who's attacking our county?"
Liu Zheng was desperate to know the reason for the incident, so he immediately asked Shi Xie, after all, Shi Xie was a local, and he knew what was happening here better than Liu Zheng.
"My lord, it's from Linyi Country."
"Lin Yiguo?"
Shi Xie said a name in his mouth, but it made Liu Zheng frown, he was not familiar with the name in Shi Xie's mouth.
It is normal for Liu Zheng to be unfamiliar, Lin Yiguo is just a small land, and in history, he doesn't even have much fame.
Although it has existed for more than a thousand years, it has always been a weak sense of existence, and it is normal for Liu Zheng not to know.
But Liu Zheng didn't know, Shixie was very clear, because the founding king of Linyi was a Han Chinese!
About fifty years ago, the next place called Xianglin County in Rinan County, which belonged to the Han Dynasty, was the son of Gongcao in Xianglin County, and he killed the county order, proclaimed himself king, and founded the Linyi Kingdom. The king has sole power.
In this way, the Linyi State was established, because the gathering was too far away, it was on the border of Rinan County, and there was no time to take care of the history of Jiaozhou and the suppression of rebellions in other places, and there was not so much thought to deal with the Linyi State, so it was delayed.
When Lin Yiguo first started, he was quite honest, he just played his own behind closed doors, and he didn't take the initiative to make enemies with the big Han, and the big man didn't free up his hands to clean him up, just like that, the two sides stopped for decades.
But not long ago, after fifty years of development, the Linyi Kingdom already had a lot of territory, and at the same time, it developed its own soldiers and strength.
coincided with Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses attacking Jiaozhou, Jiaozhou was in chaos, Jiaozhou assassin Shi Zhu Fu was killed, and Jiaozhou was in a state of turmoil all of a sudden, which made Linyi State, which was already ready to move, have an idea.
While Liu Zheng had not yet taken care of Rinan County, Lin Yiguo launched an attack on other counties in Rinan County.
In just three months, more than 10,000 people and horses belonging to Linyi Kingdom captured the other three counties of Rinan County.
There were only five county seats in Rinan County, and now only Xijuan County, which is closest to Jiuzhen County, is still under the control of the Han Dynasty.
This is still the news half a month ago, when the news reached Cangwu City, where Liu Zheng was located, I was afraid that the county seat of Xijuan had already been lost and was captured by the people of Linyi Kingdom.
Syllable!
Liu Zheng slapped the pillar next to him angrily, and the face on his face was gloomy and terrifying.
"It's too much of a deception! It's just too deceitful! ”
A surge of anger surged in Liu Zheng's heart.
What kind of Linyi country is this, it is simply a small country, or a country founded by a small person who privately occupied the territory of the Han Dynasty and established himself as a king a few decades ago, and he actually dared to take advantage of the civil strife of the Han Dynasty to come and make trouble.
If you don't manage these white-eyed wolves well, Liu Zheng really can't swallow this breath.
Just taking advantage of the fact that the soldiers and horses of the imperial court at this time would not take time to deal with him, Liu Zheng decided to sweep away these hidden dangers first, so that Jiaozhou would have no worries, and then set his sights on the Han Dynasty.
"Shi Xie's assassination, you immediately go to Jiuzhen County, first stabilize the people of Jiuzhen County, and I will send people to deal with those young people."
Although Liu Zheng was angry, he was also happy that Lin Yiguo had exposed this kind of thing at this time.
After all, now is the stage of a temporary truce between the imperial court and Liu Zheng, if Lin Yiguo suddenly makes a move when Liu Zheng and the imperial court are fighting, it will really give Liu Zheng a headache.
Not only will he not be able to spare troops to deal with Lin Yi State, but he may also have to temporarily reconcile with Lin Yi State and make every effort to deal with the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty.
But now, Liu Zheng can completely free up manpower and gather soldiers and horses from all over the country to slowly deal with Lin Yiguo, and he doesn't need to take care of other things at all.
"Yes, my lord, I'll leave for Jiuzhen County."
After Shi Xie came to report the information to Liu Zheng, he quickly accepted Liu Zheng's proposal, left directly, and set off for Jiuzhen County.
After all, if the people of Lin Yi Kingdom are strong enough, they will definitely continue to attack, and then take down Jiuzhen County.
And after Shi Xie left, Liu Zheng also began to think about how to deal with the soldiers and horses of Lin Yiguo, the clown who jumped off the beam.
Although he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were in the Linyi Kingdom, Liu Zheng knew that this Linyi Kingdom was definitely not strong, after all, if it was strong enough, there would be no records of events left in the history of the Three Kingdoms.
Liu Zheng now has nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.
In addition to the 10,000 horses each led by Xu Huang, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, and Zhou Cang, there were 60,000 horses, which were recruited from various counties.
These soldiers were stationed in Yulin County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Hepu County, Jiaozhi County, and Jiuzhen County.
Because of the remoteness of Rinan County, and some of its territory is occupied by Linyi State, there are not many places that are really under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, even if Liu Zheng has occupied Jiaozhou for half a year, he has not really extended his tentacles to Rinan County.
It is precisely because of this that the people of Linyi Kingdom will be able to break through the county so easily, and they will lose several county seats in the blink of an eye, and even the entire Ninan County will be in danger.
In each county, Liu Zheng only recruited 10,000 soldiers as a standing county, and now to deal with the people of Linyi State, Liu Zheng can only transfer soldiers and horses from Jiuzhen County and Jiaozhi County, which are closest to Rinan County, to suppress them in order not to affect other counties and counties in Jiaozhou.
Fortunately, Liu Zheng asked Xu Huang and Huang Zhong's soldiers and horses to disband, and went to various places to recruit their teammates, and those disbanded veterans should now be distributed in various counties.
After calculation, Jiuzhen County and Jiaozhi County should also have two or three thousand people.
Liu Zheng immediately mobilized and asked these veterans to gather in Jiuzhen County, and at the same time ordered Jiuzhen County and Jiaozhi County to send 10,000 soldiers and horses each to quell the rebellion.
However, the generals who went to quell the rebellion had their own things to do, and they couldn't spare manpower for the time being, so Liu Zheng could only let Xu Huang and Huang Zhong leave one person to continue the recruitment of the second batch of students.
The other went to quell the rebellion.
