Chapter 405: Qingzhou Victory
In order to conquer Qingzhou, Han Zhan made a lot of preparations in advance. Not only did they hoard a large amount of grain and grass in Beihai in advance, but they also established a post station every fifty miles. In order to be able to understand the progress of Zhao Yun's attack on Qingzhou in a timely manner, and to convey some new orders to the past.
Just when Han Zhan proposed to his subordinates to establish a post station, he was opposed by Xun Yu, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others. Xun Yu said to Han Zhan: "My lord, from Yedu to Qingzhou, there is a post station built by the imperial court every thirty miles, and there is no need to build a new post station......
"I don't know anything about the long history." Han Zhan didn't understand in his heart that there were post stations in the imperial court, but who knew how many cronies had been placed by others among the post guards of these post stations, and he didn't want all his secrets to be in the hands of the ministers of the court, so he explained with a high-sounding reason: "We have recruited tens of thousands of yellow turban thieves, many of whom are young and strong, and they are not qualified to be incorporated into the Jizhou army, and they are afraid of making trouble if they stay in Tuntianzhuang, so it is better to place them in the newly established post station, which can be regarded as making the best use of their talents and materials." ”
Hearing Han Zhan say this, Xun Yu felt that there was some truth, last time, some of the Yellow Turban thieves outside the Pavilion Tao City just couldn't stand the life in Tuntian Zhuangzi, and gathered to rebel again, and finally Han Zhan personally led his troops to exterminate them. Let them be post guards, and they will also have an income of money and food every month, which will still help stabilize people's hearts.
Through the persuasion of Zhang Ning, Zuo Ji, Zhangba and others, Zhao Yun collected more than 200,000 troops of Qingniujiao and Huanglong, and exterminated the remnants of Liu Shipinghan, so he sent eight messengers back to Yedu and returned to the city. At that time, when confirming the number of people who reported victory, Zhao Yun and Xun You also had a dispute.
Xun You said that according to the usual practice, it would be enough to send at most three messengers, but Zhao Yun insisted on using eight people. Xun You asked the reason, and Zhao Yun Zhenzhen said eloquently: "Strategist, don't forget, the eight messengers can represent us in Qingzhou and exterminate Zuo Yan, Zhangba, Liu Shi, Pinghan and other Bafang Qu Shuai. ”
For Zhao Yun's extremely far-fetched statement, Xun You is really hard to refute. He thought that there was still a lot of opposition to the Eastern Crusade in the imperial court, and if he didn't get some results back as soon as possible, Han Zhan would really be under a lot of pressure in the court, so he agreed with Zhao Yun's arrangement.
The post guards at the post stations along the way, except for the post officers, are almost all Yellow Turban soldiers who have returned to obedience. When they saw the messenger returning from Qingzhou, they took advantage of the change of horses to ask questions. The messengers who reported the news, seeing that the post guards were so flattering to themselves, could not help but boast a few words, especially the deeds of Tai Shici's 2,000 men defeating Zuo Zhang's 80,000 people, and Xun You's military marquis leading 500 people to defeat 5,000 people, and repeatedly boasting several times.
The messengers did not believe what the messenger said. But when one messenger says this, two messengers say this, and all the messengers say this, the postmen have to believe that it is true. even wondered in his heart that if he was still in the Yellow Turban Army, would he be able to block the attack of Jizhou soldiers and horses.
After three days on the road, the messengers finally came to the outside of the capital. The eight messengers found a shady place to stop, ate and drank, and waited until their strength and horsepower had recovered almost enough before they remounted their horses and rode towards the north gate. The north gate was guarded by a Dubo, who saw a group of cavalry riding horses in the distance, and did not know what was going on, so he hurriedly ordered the soldiers guarding the gate to be on guard.
The messenger who led the team, seeing that the defenders near the city gate were on guard, was afraid of causing a greater misunderstanding, so he hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice: "Qingzhou is a great victory, exterminate 400,000 yellow turbans!" ”
When Dubo heard this shout, he was stunned at first, and then understood that these cavalry were from the Eastern Expedition, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers blocking the gate to give way, and drove the people in and out of the city to the side first, so that the cavalry who reported the news passed.
Eight messengers galloped wildly, shouting loudly as they ran: "Qingzhou is a great victory, exterminate 400,000 yellow turbans!" ”
After the people standing on the side of the road heard the messenger's shout clearly, they couldn't help but be stunned and discussed: "It has been less than a month since the imperial court sent troops to Qingzhou, why did it exterminate 400,000, there would be no fraud, right?" ”
"There are no 400,000, there are always 100,000." Someone listened and said in an uncertain tone.
"It can't be a good killing, right?" There was a more daring person who said: "In the past, when Dong Thief was in Beijing, he used to do this...... but before he finished his words, he was covered by his companion on the side: "Be cautious, be cautious, be careful of bringing yourself to death." ”
The messengers came to the governor's mansion, but Han Zhan went to the court. Guo Jiajian, who stayed here, came from Qingzhou to report the victory, and after reading Zhao Yun's good news, he also called all the messengers in and asked in detail about the whole process of cleaning up the yellow scarves. After learning all the truth, after rewarding the messengers, he ordered someone to take them to rest, and he went to the palace with the report document to report the good news to Han Zhan.
The general of the forbidden army guarding the palace gate knew Guo Jia, and when he saw him coming in a hurry, he guessed that there must be something urgent, and hurriedly said to him: "Guo Junshi, please wait here for a while, and wait for the last general to go and report." ”
Guo Jia nodded after hearing this, and said to the general of the forbidden army: "There is General Lao!" ”
…………
Above the court, Cheng Zhong Xuan and Shang Shulang Han Bin in the imperial history were attacking Han Zhan. Zhong Miao first asked: "Jizhou Mu, this official asks you, it has been nearly a month since your soldiers and horses went out, but what battle report has come?" ”
Han Zhan shook his head and replied honestly, "No! ”
Hearing Han Zhan's answer, Han Bin immediately asked: "Has Jizhou Mu ever thought that if Qingzhou has a poor summer grain harvest this year, you have dispatched 60,000 troops and the same number of people to enter Qingzhou, how much burden will it bring to the people of Qingzhou?" ”
"Shang Shulang's words are wrong." After Han Zhan waited for Han Bin to finish speaking, he replied with some displeasure: "It is precisely because of the poor harvest in Qingzhou that Benhou will send troops into Qingzhou. Do you know that because there are too many people who can't eat enough, they have to take risks and follow the Yellow Turban thieves to raise the flag and rebel......
"Jizhou Mu," Han Zhan hadn't finished his words before Zhong Xuan interrupted his later words: "According to the information obtained by this official, there are at least 200,000 Yellow Turban thieves in Qingzhou now, and you only have 60,000 people, what role can you play?" ”
In order to conquer Qingzhou, Han Zhan made a lot of preparations in advance.
