One thousand one hundred and fourteen The time has come to crusade against Nanzhong

Now it's all clear.

In accordance with Guo Peng's order, Man Chong started a project in Chengdu, re-established the Chengdu School Palace, and ordered the county guards to repair the school and re-establish a large-scale public school system.

Let the scholars in Shuzhong enter the school palace or school to register regardless of their identity, and it is best for those who are literate and hyphenated to go, get their student status, and study carefully in order to participate in the imperial examination in March of the following year.

Having said that, because of the urgency of time, many people went to the government to report as if they had obtained their student status, and then rushed to Luoyang in a hurry.

The news of the suppression of the 5,000 scholars brought not only panic, but also great opportunity.

Many people smelled the opportunity and immediately decided to rush to Luoyang to participate in the imperial examination.

At that time, when the news first came, there was turmoil in Shuzhong because a large number of scholar families had been suppressed, and they were angry and grieved, clamoring to give them a reason.

Soon, these people felt that the emperor was far away in Shuzhong, and even tried to unite with the Yong clan in the south to rebel and recapture Shuzhong together.

However, their actions were informed to Man Chong and Le Jin by some local forces in Nanzhong who were dissatisfied with Yonghong, and asked Man Pet and Le Jin to take more precautions.

Man Zhong and Le Jin immediately took action, urgently sent troops to suppress the uprising of this group of people, and killed them all before they could merge, exterminating more than a dozen scholar families in one fell swoop and uprooting them.

Because the situation calmed down quickly and did not cause a large-scale chain reaction, after the news was reported to Luoyang, Guo did not get angry and decided to bloody the Sichuan Shu clan, but ordered to praise Man Chong and Le Jin and praise their merits.

Then, Guo Peng learned that the person who told Man Zhong and Le Jin was a native of Nanzhong.

He realized that the plan he had made before had paid off, and he made up his mind to promote the pacification of the four counties in Nanzhong.

The South-Central Campaign, which has been delayed until now because of many things, is about to be launched.

So Guo Peng gave an order, and Man Zhong and Le Jin were immediately ordered to push forward the matter.

Of course, Lejin is happy, because after waiting for several years, there is finally a battle to fight.

Without Guo Peng's order, the Wei army could not take the initiative to attack the four counties in Nanzhong, and could only deter, not use force, so as not to cause a full-scale war in advance.

Guo has never fought an unprepared war, either a defensive battle or a war to destroy the country.

But then again, in the past few years, that bastard of Yonghong really hasn't made any trouble.

Huang Zhong and Zhang He and other generals felt relieved on the one hand, but also felt a little incredible.

How could this bastard be so honest and really satisfied after getting the position of governor of Nanzhong?

The arrogant appearance of the guy before was vivid, and the generals of Yizhou felt incredible.

Actually, there is nothing incredible about this, it is easy to explain.

Guo Peng didn't hand over the position of governor of Nanzhong to Yonghong for nothing.

At that time, he made a little judgment and decided that the political ecology of Nanzhong was similar to that of Liangzhou back then, and there was no leader who was openly recognized by all forces, but a coalition of interests.

When there is a common interest or an external enemy, it will naturally unite together, and if not, there will be internal chaos.

The Wei Empire was too powerful and became a common worry and enemy in Nanzhong, which would naturally make them unite and hide behind Yonghong, but if he withdrew from Nanzhong's sphere of influence, all this would not be necessary.

It would be even more different if you found a nominal leader for Nanzhong before withdrawing.

Yonghong got the position of governor of Nanzhong and officially became the lord of Nanzhong, although he could command all the forces in Nanzhong in a righteous and bright manner, but the forces in Nanzhong were not willing to listen to him.

It's easy to understand when you think about it.

It turns out that everyone is a partner, equal to each other, and everything must be discussed, taking into account everyone's interests, which is very good.

But after Yonghong became the governor of Nanzhong, he really took himself seriously.

He swaggered and gave orders, showing this face today, and that face tomorrow, as a blessing.

If this is the case, forget it, it is not unacceptable for everyone to swallow their anger.

But Yonghong doesn't know what to do, he has to make inches, and even tries to seize some interests that don't belong to him.

If you encounter resistance, you will say [I am the governor of Nanzhong ordered by Wei Tianzi], pull up the banner as a tiger skin, and say that the backer behind him is Guo Peng, which provokes the resentment of the people in all parts of Nanzhong, and the powerful factions in various places are very disgusted with Yonghong, and Yonghong soon lost the hearts of the people.

Everyone found out that Yonghong turned out to be a bastard, and when he got the benefits, he began to act as a bully and oppress the good, this kind of person We actually recommended him as a leader, it is really unimaginable.

They all felt cheated.

The annoyance with the Wei Empire was also transferred to Yonghong.

But Yonghong does have the strongest strength and the greatest prestige, and he is indeed the number one in Nanzhong in name, so everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak.

Having said that, they also have many schemes in private, such as Zhu Bao, another representative of the Han wealthy family in Nanzhong below Yonghong, and Gao Ding, a well-known barbarian king among the barbarians in Nanzhong, each have their own small circles, and each of them is quite dissatisfied with Yonghong.

This in itself is also one of Guo's plans, and the internal contradictions in Nanzhong are still quite acute.

The contradictions between the Han people and the local aborigines, the contradictions within the Han people, the contradictions within the aborigines, and the contradictions between the central and local governments, etc.

Earlier, there was no nominal leader in South China, and at most there was a distinction between big and small forces.

And once Yonghong became a public leader recognized by the central government, some of the struggles that could have been suppressed could no longer be suppressed.

Especially Yonghong didn't know how to restrain himself, and after getting the official position of governor of Nanzhong, he really began to expand his power to the four counties, in addition to his own base camp Yizhou County, Yuewang County, Qiqi County and Yongchang County, he mixed sand into it.

This made the local forces of the other three counties except Yizhou County very unhappy.

In particular, there was also the power of the Wei army in Yuewang County and Qiqi County, with 5,000 troops under Zhang He's department of the Wei army stationed in the northern part of Yuewang County, and 5,000 troops under Huang Zhong's department of the Wei army stationed in the northern part of Qiqi County.

and Lejin's deputy general, Li Gan, led an army of 5,000 troops to be stationed in Zhuti County, threatening the flanks of Yuewang County and Qiqi County at all times.

In the face of the threat of the Wei army, it was okay, but as a result, Yonghong still did not know whether to live or die and extended his power to Yuewang County and Qiqi County, which made them very unhappy.

Yonghong also noticed these unpleasantness, but he really wanted to expand his power too much to become the real king of Nanzhong.

As a result, he even agreed to the things that some scholars in Shuzhong wanted to cooperate with him - because at that time, he heard that Guo Peng had just fought a big battle with troops in the north, and he should not have the strength to fight again in a short time, so he felt that this was a good opportunity to drive the Wei army out of Nanzhong.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.

And because of his perverse behavior, the local forces in Yuewang County and Qiqi County in turn helped the Wei people and told the news to Man Chong and Le Jin.

Good guy, this can be regarded as a valid reason to clean up Yonghong.

Man Pet and Le Jin cleaned up the inner ghost, and then sharpened their knives to the south-

Over the years, they have been building roads day and night in Nanzhong, basically the road from Chengdu to Zhuti County has been repaired, and the main artery of Shu Road in Guo Peng's plan has been opened up.

The completion of the repair of this road means that the Wei army already has the mobility to go south on a large-scale crusade against Nanzhong, and with this idea, Man Chong and Le Jin got Guo Peng's holy decree to start a war.
