Volume 2 The Rise of the Heroes Chapter 118 Tuntian

"Kill!"

The men and horses on both sides abandoned the Yellow Turban soldiers who fled indiscriminately on all sides, and there was only each other in their eyes, and they all burst out with overwhelming shouts of killing, and then collided heavily in one place like two iron plates.

Mars collided with the earth, and in an instant, the sky was full of sand and dust, and thick smoke was billowing out, covering the sky and the sun; The sound of roars, screams, iron hooves, gold and iron, the sound of knives and guns entering the body is in the ears, the sound of killing is shocking, and the wails are all over the field.

Lu Junyi's army in the east of the battlefield and Zhao Yun's army in the north found that the fighting was fierce here, so they hurriedly abandoned the Yellow Turban deserters and surrendered their pawns, abandoned the infantry soldiers, and led the iron cavalry to rush over non-stop.

There is no need to rush.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the killing sound gradually stopped.

As the last wisps of gray sand and smoke were blown away by a fresh summer breeze, the battlefield to the south was clearly displayed in front of everyone. Where is this battlefield, it is clearly the Shura Hell, countless corpses are lying on the ground, stumps and broken arms, broken guns and knives, all eyes are raised, scarlet blood is bubbling on the ground and flowing into a stream, the heavy smell of blood is mixed with the smell of feces, urine and sweat, countless war horses with empty saddles are neighing sadly, and some hard-hit soldiers are wailing and moaning......

Zhang Liao was covered in blood, holding the water mill iron halberd with both hands and holding it high, the tip of the halberd was impressively holding a head, blood dripping, his eyes were round, and he was not blind, it was Liang Zhongning, the handsome man of the Yellow Turban Qu.

Zhang Liaoji raised his head, stood with his eyes open, majestic, and shouted proudly: "How dare the grasshopper shake the big tree?" How dare the thieves deceive my guards? …… The Guardians are invincible! ”

"The convoy is invincible! Invincibility! ......" Dong Ping, Wu Song, and thousands of iron horsemen, who were covered in blood behind them, all brandished swords and guns, and roared in unison, and the roar shook the mountains and fields, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

"Invincible! Invincibility! ...... "The East Road and North Route Army, which rushed over, stopped their horses, raised their swords and guns, and roared, resounding to curb the clouds, and the sky and the earth changed color.

……

When Liang Zhongning decided to leave the city, in fact, this saltless battle had already come to an end. There's only one reason why the Guards go to such great lengths, they just want to lure you out of the city. This is the plan offered by Zhang Liao in the previous debate, "encircling three ques and one": constantly attacking the city on three sides, causing the Yellow Turban army to abandon the city and flee, and then annihilate it in one fell swoop. Later, Guo Jia made a more detailed arrangement on this strategy, and the lord Song Jiang Renyi didn't want to kill and injure his brothers, right, well, we don't attack, we add a strategy in front, which is called "Yangwu": the city on three sides does not attack the city, but only constantly sends the generals under his command to fight and call the battle, kill the enemy, show the strong strength of our official army, make you afraid, make you despair. Doesn't your Yellow Turban Army like to wander in all directions, isn't there still Jibei Guancheng in the east who are horns of each other? Forcing you to involuntarily want to abandon the city and flee, and want to go east to Jibei, I just want you to go, and I will wait for you there. There are two small details in it: First, there are reinforcements in ambush in the rear of the war army, just for you Yellow Turban If you really go out of the city to face the battle, I have enough strength to swallow you, but also make you doubt and fear in your heart, why did the officers and soldiers tempt me to fight? Second, the total number of soldiers and horses in the escort army is only more than 20,000, and most of them are arranged to be ambushed and intercepted outside the east city, and there are not many people in the city on three sides, so what? Guo Jia has his own clever plan, bluffing, tens of thousands of people outside the city on three sides of the camp, out of the camp to change the main general, the same soldiers, there is a front ambush as the foundation, where does the Yellow Turban Army know, just think that they take turns to fight and take turns to ambush. In this way, there are tens of thousands of officers and soldiers, and the inner shock can be imagined, which accelerates their abandonment of the city.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Yellow Turban Army, there are many officers and soldiers, countless officers and soldiers, countless brave generals and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers are brave and invincible, plus the lack of food in the saltless city, the habit of wandering, and the addition of factors such as Jibei can vote, Liao Hua thought of abandoning the city, Liang Zhongning decided to abandon the city, all of this is within the planning of the escort army, all of which declares the inevitable result of this war.

This battle is deeply planned and comprehensive. What is even more commendable is that although there are many plans, although there are many mobilizations, and the narrative is long and dazzling, in fact, it does not take much time, only four days. Although the field encounters have always been tragic, the confrontation time is short, and it is by no means like a siege battle, which often besieges the city with ten times as many men and horses, and often besieges the city for several months, and often kills and wounds countless people. Just like the famous Handan defense battle in history, when the Zhao army had just experienced the defeat of Changping, 400,000 soldiers were killed in a pit, the Zhao family wore filial piety, and every household was clothed in linen, but under the command of the veteran general Lian Po of Zhao State, 100,000 old and weak women and children in Handan blocked the siege of 400,000 elite soldiers of Qin State. Song Shijiang is afraid of this, he is afraid of capsizing in the gutter, he is afraid of protracted times, and he is afraid that there will be too many deaths and injuries, which will affect his plan to chase the Central Plains. Now, in just four days, he has captured a city with more than 100,000 horses, which makes him unhappy. What's more, in this battle, our escort army killed one member of the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai (Liang Zhongning), two generals (Du Yuan, Pei Yuanshao), and more than 20,000 soldiers; captured a member of the general (Liao Hua), more than 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers, and more than 100,000 old and weak women and children; Countless gold beads and treasures, countless grains and grasses, and more than 2,000 war horses were seized. And our escort army suffered less than 2,000 casualties, and there were no casualties.

Salt-free Prime Minister's Mansion.

The Prime Minister's Mansion has changed hands again. Song Shijiang sat at the top, and all the civil and military officers sat in columns, all smiling and radiant.

Song Shijiang excitedly patted the case of Nanmu in front of him, and shouted: "Zhu Wenwu, all the brothers, 20,000 against 178,000 horses, and attack the city, Song thought it would be quite difficult. Now it's only been four days, and the salt-free has been decided, and it is a great relief to achieve such a result. All the brothers have made great contributions, and they are even more filial piety and Wenyuan, and they are well planned and have made great contributions. ”

All the civil and military officers looked forward to it, and they were all smiling.

Zhang Liao clasped his fists and saluted, and said with a smile: "Lord, plan for the lord, Wen Yuan's internal affairs." ”

Guo Jia was half-leaning on a few cases, and said with a lazy smile: "Lord, it's just some grass thieves, so it's a great achievement, but Jia is ashamed." ”

Song Shijiang shook his head at the two and smiled: "You two, you are really modest." This is 178,000 horses, if there is no planning, our army will suffer heavy losses, how can a certain heart be at ease? ”

After laughing, Song Shijiang Zhengse said: "Generals, now that there is no salt, there are two things in front of us, and we urgently need to complete them. ”

"First, co-optation. Now that our army has captured more than 50,000 Yellow Turbans and more than 100,000 Yellow Turbans, old and weak women and children, how to recruit these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians is really a big deal. I'm going to have to settle it down. Do you have a strategy? Song Shijiang asked down.

Generals, look at me, I'll look at you, Dadaoguan won the column and called: "Lord, I will wait for the generals to be transferred by the Yellow Turban, but I will listen to the transfer of the lord." It's just that the rest of the people are in trouble, but it is troublesome to ask the lord and the military advisor to plan. ”

Song Shijiang nodded and said: "I thought about it last night, now Dongping has been swept by the yellow scarf, the royal family has been destroyed, the family is gone, the people are displaced, and thousands of miles of fields are deserted and ruined. And we have so many yellow turban soldiers and family members in our hands, and their roots are all the ears of the people. So he wanted to implement 'Tuntian'. ”

"Tuntian?" Everyone asked.

"Yes, Tuntian." Song Shijiang said affirmatively.

The term tuntian has been used in ancient times, and there was such a system in the Qin and Han dynasties, that is, the state forced farmers or soldiers to cultivate state-owned land and levy a certain amount of land rent. In the eleventh year of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty used sinners, slaves and recruited peasants to garrison Tuntian, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dispatched a large number of soldiers to the Western Regions of Tuntian. However, at that time, Tuntian was mainly concentrated in the western and northern borders, and the main way was military tun, and the scale was not large. Of course, it was Cao Cao who really carried it forward, and in the first year of Jian'an (196), Cao Cao adopted the advice of Zao Yi and Han Hao to carry out Tuntian near Xudu. The land of Tuntian is ownerless and barren land. Labor, cattle, and farming implements were captured during the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and some of the laborers, known as recruitment, were actually forced. It is said that the harvest of grain in Tuntian that year alleviated social contradictions. "So the state and county set up the field officials, where they were located, and conquered the Quartet, but there was no labor to transport grain, so they annexed the thieves and leveled the world." However, these later Guo Jiaxun did not know, and it is impossible to say that Song Shijiang and Wu Yong knew.

Guo Jia stroked his palms and sighed: "Lord, what you are thinking about is good." In this way, yellow turbans can be placed, barren can be restored, and grain and grass can be harvested. This contemplation is a great good, a great good. ”

Wu Yong also suddenly realized, in fact, he also knew Cao Cao's history, but why didn't he expect it.

Then the crowd cried out, "The lord is wise." ”

Song Shijiang asked: "Who is in charge of the matter of Tuntian?" ”

The three military divisions present looked at each other, and finally their eyes were fixed on Xun You. Xun You smiled slightly, shook his lenient Confucian clothes, and said: "Lord, you are not as good as filial piety, and your heart is not enough to brighten, but you have allowed the lord to drive, and you are willing to do this." ”

Song Shijiang was overjoyed, stood up, grabbed Xun Youru's clothes tightly and shouted, "Gongda, you are also modest." Haha, when it comes to internal affairs, who can reach the public. In this way, the matter of Tuntian will be entrusted to Gongda. ”

"A certain order: Qian Xun Yu is the prime minister of the long history and the general of the farmer, with a rank of 600 stones. Presided over the affairs of Dongping Tuntian. ”

Xun You bowed down and bowed, and said in a loud voice: "Thank you, you will do your best to repay the lord." ”

Song Shijiang laughed: "Xun Yu does things, don't worry." ”

Wu shook the feather fan gently, his eyes were not without envy, and he congratulated him: "Congratulations to Xun Gong, congratulations to Xun Gong." At the beginning, Xun Gong gave up the position of 600 stone Huangmen squire, and today he has returned. ”

Xun You smiled, stroked the three strands of long beard under his chin, and shouted loudly: "He is a district official, You is only happy to be able to show a certain talent, save the people, and help the world." ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he couldn't help but bow down and praised: "Xun Gong, loyal and good to the festival, generous and righteous, and all of them are considered exhaustive, and they are all strategic, and they are better than Jia to win." ”
