Chapter 150: The Youzhou Incident
The generals were silent for a while when they heard this, and finally Lu Ping spoke first: "After the lord went out to the north to conquer Xianbei, General Gongji led us to guard against the Xianbei Hulu outside the Beigukou day and night, and went around to investigate the battle situation of Xianbei plundering all over the country. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Half a month later, the Xianbei people suddenly withdrew their troops, and they felt a little panicked. When we saw this, we were overjoyed, and thought that this must be the work of the lord outside the fortress. So under the leadership of General Gongji, our county defeated the Xianbei Hulu outside the Gubei Pass, and more than half of the battle was killed. ”
However, after waiting for several months, the return of the lord was never seen. When we were panicking and worried about the danger of the lord's security, the court suddenly ordered that the lord had made a meritorious contribution to the second year of Zhongping, and was specially promoted to the deputy chief of Taiyuan Yu. When the court ordered the pursuit of the lord to disappear, we made it clear to the court that the lord had privately marched north to Xianbei at the end of May. ”
The envoy was surprised, he didn't believe that the Xianbei people withdrew their troops because of the lord, but there was no reason for him to explain the matter. So he went to the court, and sent warriors to Xianbei to investigate, and to find out the whereabouts of the lord's army. However, a month later, news came that the Xianbei people had indeed retired because of the lord. I heard that the eastern Xianbei was raided by the lord, and the damage was heavy. However, the lord was trapped in the depths of the Great Xianbei Mountain by tens of thousands of Xianbei Hulu, but he was afraid that something had happened. ”
"When we heard the news, we were very sad, and we wanted to go to Daxianbei Mountain to find out the details of the defeat of the lord. However, the heavy snow outside the plug closed the road, and it was difficult to make a trip for a while, so I had to temporarily sacrifice the lord and a thousand soldiers with the people of the county, and then go to Daxianbei Mountain after the New Year. Later, from the order of the main mother, he played the court to posthumously seal the lord. Unexpectedly, at the end of last year, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun suddenly led 9,000 troops to rebel, and lured Wuhuan Qiu Liju, Su Fuyan, and Wuyan in Liaoxi to rebel together......"
Han Yi was shocked and asked, "Yuyang Zhang's family and Zhang Chun's brothers rebelled?" Liaoxi Wuhuan, Qiu Liju and other departments also rebelled together? What about Brother Bo Jue who recruited the Wuhuan Tuqi of Liaoxi? ”
After the generals' interjections and descriptions, Han Yi finally learned about all the big and small things in Qianping County, Yuyang County, and Youzhou in the past seven months. Let's talk about Qianping County first, according to Lu Ping, under the instigation of Xu You, Wang Fenben, the assassin of Jizhou, did not report Han Yi's work in cutting off the horns in Julu County. It was only because of the efforts of Han Yi's wife and brother Sun Zan that he was rewarded by the court and promoted to Han Yi as the deputy minister of Yu.
In November, the new governor arrived, and the generals had no choice but to hand over the county's governance. I wanted to wait until after the beginning of spring to go to Daxianbei Mountain to explore. I didn't mean that at the end of the year, I was encountering the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun. At that time, Wuyan led his troops to look for a gap, and the new commander of Qianping saw that the people of Qianping County were strong and brave, so he went out of the city to fight with Wuyan.
However, he didn't understand military affairs, and Wuyan was very brave, so he was not only beheaded by Wuyan, but also the county was almost attacked by Wuyan. Fortunately, Yan Liang led the generals to the rescue, and only then did he repel Wuyan. Seeing that there was no owner in the county, the people of Qianping County elected the generals to defend the city, and the generals elected Yan Liang to preside over the county affairs and fight with Wuyan.
Wuyan was defeated at the beginning, so he attracted the rebels of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun. Zhang also used the county sergeant Hao, who was punished by Han Yi, as an internal response, and attacked the city at night. Fortunately, with the support of the people of the county and the desperate resistance of the generals, they were defeated and retreated to the Gubei Pass.
With the help of Wang Dong, the general of the pass, more than 18,000 citizens of Qianping County, they retreated safely to the mountains of Wuhuan Land for temporary refuge. Fortunately, Han Yi once hid hundreds of thousands of stones and grass in the mountains, so that the people of Qianping County would not have to worry about starving to death.
Han Yi listened to the fact that the color was cloudy and sunny in the back was extremely ugly, so it seems that the destruction of the county seat of Qianping was still the aftermath left by him in the morning, and Wuyan came to seek revenge because he took Anova. It seems that the people of Qianping County are all affected by themselves, and this consequence makes Han Yi feel embarrassed.
The two Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun were originally high-ranking officials in the court, and the Zhang family in Yuyang was a big family in the county, and their prestige in Yuyang was extremely high, and they also had great prestige in the hearts of the Wuhuan people in the three counties. And for what reason did they rebel?
But it turned out that Zhang Chun was too punctual in Zhongshan and was dismissed for some reason, and then followed Sikong Zhang Wen to Xiliang to fight against the Qiang chaos. Zhang Chun once recommended himself as a general, and returned to Youzhou to use Zhang's prestige to recruit Wuhuan Raiders. He didn't want to, but was rejected by Zhang Wen, and instead appointed Gongsun Zan as the cavalry captain, and recruited 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry to go to Liangzhou Han Sui, Ma Teng and others.
Zhang Chun was immediately resentful, thinking that Gongsun Zhan was just a lowly servant child. Zhang Wen would rather reuse his maid to have a son than reuse himself, which was a great humiliation to him, so he went to Taishan County to find his brother Zhang Ju to plot a rebellion. Zhang Ju saw that the Han family was corrupt, and the court army put down the rebellion in Xiliang, and thought that this matter was promising. The two of them then fled back to Yuyang County at the same time to prepare.
At that time, Yuyang Taishou was reappointed to another place, and the new Taishou did not arrive, and the two were connected up and down in Yuyang County, and they won the support of most of the Shihao in the county. In addition, when Gongsun Zhan led 3,000 Wuhuan Tu to ride to Jizhong in July and August, most of the Tu cavalry was unwilling to go to Xiliang to die, so he fled for his life. Gongsun Chan was furious, thinking that this was secretly instructed by Qiu Liju. So he returned to Liaoxi, borrowed the court troops from Liaoxi, and forced Qiu Liju.
Hearing the news, Erzhang immediately united with Liaoxi Wuhuan Qiu Liju and others to rebel together. So the thieves led the army to attack in all directions, and the two Zhang led the troops to plunder Jizhong, and Wuhuan Qiuli Ju plundered Liaodong. From time to time, Shanggu County Wuhuan Captain Gong Qichou led the troops to quell the rebellion, and did not want Shanggu Wuhuan to make a rebellion in the army, killed Gong Qichou, and united more than 9,000 Wuhuan troops to respond to the rebellion of Erzhang.
In just one month, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun have gathered more than 100,000 people, and Wuhuan Captain Gong Qichou, Youbeiping Taishou Liu Zheng, Liaodong Taishou Yangzhong and others are all in the chaos. At this time, most of the counties and counties in Youzhou were lost, so Qianping was no exception. Since a few days ago, all external news has been cut off, and everyone does not know where the traitors have attacked at this time. If it weren't for Han Yi's return at this time, the generals who stayed behind might have gone crazy.
Han Yi listened to the cold air, because Xianbei's pursuing soldiers were wiped out, when he returned to the Han land, he did not take the road from Fuyu to Liaodong County. I took the road at the southern foot of Daxianbei Mountain, so I didn't know anything about the rebellion in Youzhou. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned, he heard that another rebel of more than ten thousand people had appeared.
However, the rebellion initiated by Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun was not an easily broken Yellow Turban thief, and there were more than 50,000 Wuhuan Turquoise Cavalry alone. Even if it is Erzhang himself, because he was a high-ranking official of 2,000 stones, his influence is not comparable to that of the three Zhang Jiao brothers. There are definitely many frustrated people and wealthy families who go to take refuge, like carp crossing the river. If the war goes well, it will not be difficult to build a country by itself.
Han Yi was silent for a long time, since the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, the people of Qianping County have lost contact with the court, and these 18,000 people are not even in the Han Realm, saying that they have become people outside the country. If it weren't for the Xianbei people in the east, they would have been greatly injured by Han Yi and would not dare to peep south. Maybe in the near future, they will become slaves of the Xianbei people.
Han Yi sighed and asked, "I don't know if you have any ideas, although this place is near the Han Realm, most of Youzhou has fallen, and there are enemies on all sides, so it is not a good thing to stay here." Although I have a lot of food in the mountains, I can't sit back and eat the empty mountains. You need to find a way to save yourself. ”
All the generals shook their heads again and again, and said, "Only by defeating Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun, and the Wuhuan rebels can we settle down." ”
Han Yi knocked his head with a headache and asked, "There are more than ten thousand rebels, with the Wuhuan people joining, almost everyone has horses. How to break? Is it our army alone? My ministry can't protect itself, do you still want to break the thief? ”
Yan Liang gritted his teeth and said: "Mingyuan, didn't you just get more than 2,000 horsemen back, I think they are all elite and brave soldiers." When Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun attacked other places, they would first take back several counties of Yuyang County and then talk about self-consolidation. ”
Han Yi asked, "And then?" ”
Yan Liang was stunned for a moment and said, "Naturally, I am waiting for the court to send troops to suppress it." ”
Han Yi smiled bitterly and said: "The soldiers and horses that the court can mobilize are all in Yongliang Prefecture to quell the rebellion, except for Luoyang City, and it is good that the soldiers and horses of various states and counties can protect themselves." For the sake of the safety of Luoyang, the Son of Heaven refused to send troops lightly, how could a large army come to Youzhou to quell the rebellion. Although the Blood Hate Army is good, most of them are Bingzhou people who have been plundered by the Xianbei people for several years, and the longest of them is more than ten years. ”
"If they are in Xianbei, in order to return to the Han land, they may fight to the death with Xianbei Hulu. But at this time, seeing that he has returned to Handi, he will never fight to the death again, and he must return to his hometown in Bingzhou first. Even if we can recover a few counties, we can be trapped in a lonely city, there are no reinforcements outside, and there is no information, do you know that we can wait until the court sends troops to come? ”
Yan Liang had the heart to persuade again, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only give up with a long sigh in the end. Lu Ping said out: "My lord, General Gongji, I have a word, and I hope you will not be surprised." ”
Yan Liang apologized and said, "Brother Lu, please speak." ”
Lu Ping straightened up and arched his hand and said: "Lord, General Gongji, as the saying goes, Yun is not in his position, and he does not seek his government." One of the two of you is the deputy chief of Taiyuan County, and the other is the military Sima of Bohai County, Jizhou, neither of you is a member of the real 2,000 stones of the court, but you specialize in the real 2,000 stones, which is really unaccustomed to Ping. It is necessary to know that the world is endless, but there are often people who are poor. You two are too broad. ”
The two of them were stunned when they heard what they said, indeed, they thought too much about themselves, and often imposed responsibilities that were not their own, which was really too lenient. Han Yi sighed for a while, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "When did Brother Gongji become the military commander of Bohai County again?" ”
Yan Liang sighed and said, "It's not half a year ago, after killing nearly a thousand horsemen at Gubeikou Pass. The court reinstated me to my original position, but Julu had no vacant position, so he was reassigned to the commander of the Bohai County Army. Because Mingyuan and the Wenchou brothers have not returned, they have not been able to make the trip. ”
