Chapter 146: Youzhou Rebellion
Chapter 146: Youzhou Rebellion
"The lord, the former Zhongshan Minister Zhang Chun, the former Taishan Taishou Zhang Ju raised the banner against the Han Dynasty, and now he is leading his people to collude with Wuhuan Qiu Liju and others to rebel, and is currently robbing Jizhong, killing Wuhuan Captain Gong Qichou, Right Beiping Taishou Liu Zheng, Liaodong Taishou Yangzhong and others, gathering more than 100,000 people." Guo Jia truthfully finished the information, and then looked at Xu Ding.
This rebellion was not the same as the Yellow Turban or the civilian uprising of Zhang Jiao and his ilk.
Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun have both been powerful officials of the Han Dynasty, and they are powerful families, and in addition to collusion with foreign clans, it can be said that the nature is worse and the influence is more far-reaching.
It is even more sensitive to the challenge to imperial power.
"Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun, Qiu Liju! What a big dog guts. Xu Ding thought for a moment and said, "Call Zhicai, Zixiao, Zilong and Hansheng over."
"My lord, you're going to send troops." Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong's troops were both cavalrymen, and Guo Jia instantly understood what Xu Ding meant, but he still asked more.
"Of course, how can such a big event be without us, besides, the impact this time is too bad, and the impact is probably no less than that of Zhangjiao's Taiping Road, and the northern frontier will definitely be unstable." Xu Ding said.
Guo Jia said: "Lord, are you worried about something?" ”
Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju have both been Taishou, and they are also powerful families, they openly rebelled against the big men, will they set off other powerful families to follow suit, Guo Jia is extremely worried about the current situation.
Once the families turn their backs on the Liu family, then the whole world will be truly divided, and the entire Han will fall apart.
The war will become more and more intense, and even out of control.
Soon everyone hurried over, and after taking their seats, Xu Ding told him about the situation, and everyone was a little surprised and a little natural on the surface.
Then Xu Ding said: "Two Zhang and one reversed, and colluded with Wuhuan, the entire Youzhou was completely exposed to the eyes of the aliens, and at the same time, Jizhou was also deeply affected, I guess the imperial court's troop transfer order will soon be conveyed to the states, and the most likely troops to be transferred will be the Zong clan and the Southern Xiongnu." ”
"Tune the Southern Huns?" Everyone thought about it slightly, it was really possible that most of the Southern Xiongnu were in Bingzhou and Shuofang, and from there they could attack the back of the rebels from Yunzhong County.
Just transferring the Huns to fight will always make people feel inappropriate.
So then Xu Ding said: "Although the Southern Xiongnu respect my Han in name, but if they don't have a different heart for our clan, they will not be willing to drive for my Han, I guess they will follow the rebellion, take the opportunity to plunder and merge the state, and capture the city, and then the entire northern part will be shaken." ”
The Southern Huns will rebel.
Everyone was a smart person, and at once they thought of some terrible consequences.
The northern alien race, there has always been nothing to trust, if you are strong, he will be weak, pretending to be a grandson.
As soon as you are weak, he will take the opportunity to bite back, showing his fierce teeth.
"Lord, if this is the case, the situation will be even worse, the chain reaction will be greater, it may affect the whole country, and the Han may develop in the worst direction, we must prepare early." Xi Zhicai said.
Others chimed in.
Once the Han Dynasty really faced civil strife and the royal family was abandoned by the world, Donglai would also have to make arrangements in advance.
Now Donglai has this strength and confidence.
There is also an absolute worship of Xu Ding, in their opinion, their lord is now very prestigious, and he can raise his arms and shout, in Donglai, Beihai, Weiyuan Island and the four counties of the peninsula have absolute control, and the people below also recognize and trust him.
But unexpectedly, Xu Ding shook his head and said: "You don't have to be so pessimistic, the Han Dynasty is not as weak as ordinary people think in four hundred years, and only Wuhuan and the Southern Huns can't bite the Great Han, the potential of my Great Han is very huge, as long as you stomp your feet lightly, it will still make them tremble and prostrate." ”
Zhang Ju and the others are just clowns jumping off the beam, and the one who really shakes the foundation of the Han Dynasty will not be until after the death of Emperor Ling.
Don't look at Emperor Ling, it's ridiculous, but with him, the Han can still be maintained, and all parties will not mess around at will.
It's all pretty regular, and any actions are secretly engaged.
As soon as the Spirit Emperor dies, it will really be a group of demons dancing wildly.
At that time, there were no rules of the game at all, and real strength was respected and force was dominant.
"Do you think the time has come yet?" Guo Jia was so smart that he guessed Xu Ding's thoughts.
Xu Ding didn't answer, but said: "So this time I will take the captains of the Sixth Army and the Seventh Army to the north, one is to quell the chaos, the second is to train the troops, and the third is to rob!"
The first two are easy to say, but the latter one is grabbed, and they don't understand it.
"Since Wuhuan and the Southern Xiongnu dare to rebel and plunder my Han, shouldn't we return the salute?" Xu Ding said domineeringly.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they understood what Xu Ding meant.
This time, not only did he have to quell the chaos, but he also had to kill Wuhuan and the Southern Xiongnu fiercely, and even went to the other party's grazing and recuperation place to kill and plunder again.
Especially horses, whether it is Wuhuan or the Southern Xiongnu, there will be no shortage of horses, and these are very few in the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, even if there are merchants who traffic them back, it is expensive to death.
The average war horse costs 20,000 to 100,000 yuan, and the good horse costs more than 200,000 yuan.
To form a cavalry captain, the cost of war horses alone is astronomical.
Taking Donglai as an example, a cavalry team of 5,000 captains has 100 million yuan in direct expenses on war horses alone.
So when Xu Ding blackmailed Dong Zhuo thousands of war horses, Dong Zhuo was so unwilling.
So this is also the reason why Dong Zhuo has always been wealthy.
There is no shortage of horses in Liangzhou, as long as they can be transported to the Central Plains, they will definitely make him a lot of money.
After a brief discussion and arrangement, Xu Ding asked Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong to gather troops, and then played to the imperial court, requesting troops.
Donglai's upper table was detained Shangshutai, and a month later, Xu Ding's upper table was set on the upper table, and most of the Yuan courtiers opposed it.
Emperor Ling summoned the Xiongnu to quell the rebellion.
The Xiongnu rebelled, and Shuofang and the state were unstable.
The imperial court was shocked, and Emperor Ling ordered that Dingbei go to Youzhou to quell the chaos.
After receiving the reply, Xu Ding immediately took the captains of both armies to the north.
Just arrived in Youzhou Jixian County, Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, who arrived first, personally went out of the city to meet him.
Welcoming into the city, after a period of greetings, Xu Ding asked directly:
"Liu Yuanjun, what's the situation now?"
Liu Yu said with a worried face: "Weihai Hou doesn't know, Zhang Chun's thief army is strong, and now he has captured the three counties of Youbeiping, Liaodong and Liaoxi, and has 100,000 troops in Feiru, Zhang Ju claims to be the Son of Heaven, Zhang Chun calls himself General Mitian, King of Anding, at present, a small group of enemy troops frequently harass Yuyang County, and even cavalry has plundered Jixian County, and the arrogance is extremely unstoppable. ”
When Liu Yu said this, he was heartbroken and angry.
"In this way, although the situation is dangerous, it is also under control." Don't look at Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju conquered three counties, but the population of these three counties is really small.
Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were only 200,000 people.
Therefore, it is impossible for the Zhang rebels to have an army of 100,000 in their hands and bluff.
Liu Yu also understood this truth, so he said: "Although the Zhang rebels are numerous, they are only a rabble, it is not difficult to break them, the difficult thing is that the two thieves colluded with Wuhuan, and now the Wuhuan army is gathered in Shanggu, there is a possibility of knocking at any time, and Liaodong has broken off contact and hangs alone in the north, which is really worrying." ”
Xu Dingdao: "Then how does Liu Yuanjun want to deal with it." ”
Liu Yu said: "I have heard that the Marquis of Weihai has unparalleled strategy, superior force, and is undefeated in a hundred battles, so I don't know what to think." ”
Without waiting for Xu Ding to answer, a general stood up next to him, and Hong Sheng said: "What is there to say about dealing with these alien races, kill them directly, our army will reach Wuhu with a Han Dynasty, and directly kill Qiu Liju and others, kill them to their hometown, and kill them until they dare not go south." ”
