Chapter 109: Huangfu Song, Zhu Wei pacified Runan, and Chen Guo
"Where, where. To govern Yingchuan, you also need a talented person like Taishou. I'm just making generalities. Liu Fan said unreservedly.
Huang Wan is the Taishou of Yingchuan, which is somewhat different from history. However, there is no doubt about his ability, and Yingchuan can be temporarily settled.
"The tuntian system of the general of the expedition to the north is a historical precedent. Huang Wan admired. Huang Wan said with admiration.
The tuntian system is the best way to recuperate in troubled times, and as long as the land resources suitable for cultivated land are developed, the national strength can be greatly enhanced.
"Please also ask the Taishou general to recruit county soldiers as soon as possible and assign county officials, I have been delayed in Yingchuan for many days, and I must hurry north to pacify Yanzhou." As soon as the conversation changed, Liu Fan said to Huang Wan.
"General Zhengbei rest assured, I have sent officials to each county to serve as chiefs, captains, and captains, and within five days, General Zhengbei's troops and horses in each county will definitely be evacuated." Huang Wan also knew that it was urgent to eradicate the Yellow Turban, and every day the Yellow Turban was chaotic, many people suffered.
Then Liu Fan chatted with Huang Wan about the situation in various counties, and Huang Wan listened to Liu Fan very carefully. Occasionally interject into two sentences.
There is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher.
Huang Wan is neither humble nor arrogant, and does not underestimate Liu Fan because he is a military general or young. For some unusual questions, Huang Wan humbly sought advice. The two have many languages in common.
Fortunately, Huang Wan came to Yingchuan to be the Taishou, if he was an incompetent person, Liu Fan would really not be able to stand it.
After Liu Fan arranged a place for Huang Wan, Guan Yu came back.
After Liu Fan was appointed as the general of the expedition to the north, he asked Guan Yu to transport the gold and jade captured from Bocai to Anyi in Hedong with hundreds of horsemen.
When Liu Fan was still the captain of Huben, he was afraid that the guards would not buy his account, so he did not transport the gold and jade out at that time. But now it's different, His Majesty personally recognized Liu Fan as his younger brother, and he was the general of the expedition to the north of Kekaifu, and no one dared to stop Guan Yu and the others on the grounds of military orders.
Emperor Liu Xie, who had no rights, called Liu Bei an imperial uncle, and the name of Liu Huangshu made countless profits for Liu Bei. Liu Hong's power is incomparable to Liu Xie.
"Yun Chang, how is Anyi's situation now?" Liu Fan asked Guan Yu.
"My lord, it is the season when the grain is ripe. Anyi has a bumper harvest this year, and the displaced people who were rescued by the lord last year are now able to solve their own food and clothing. Guan Yu replied to Liu Fan.
"Is the Marquis Mansion of the Qin Pavilion in the West good?" Liu Fan asked Guan Yu again.
"Everything is fine in the Hou Mansion, and the letters written by Jin Yu and the lord have been handed over to Steward Liu." Guan Yu replied.
"Good!" Liu Fan was overjoyed.
Nanyang.
After Chu Gong's death, Qin Jie, the governor of Jiangxia, was ordered to succeed Nanyang Taishou and use Anzhong County as a basis to resist the Yellow Turban forces. lest the Nanyang Yellow Turban go south and swell its power.
There are many barbarians in Jiangxia County, so Jiangxia has set up an official position of more than 2,000 stones.
After Zhang Mancheng killed the magistrate of Nanyang, he was indispensable. Frequent sorties to attack Qin Jie. I want to make my prestige sublime again.
Qin Jie took advantage of Zhang Mancheng's arrogance and successfully buried Zhang Mancheng, the leader of the Yellow Turban in Nanyang. Zhang Mancheng died in battle.
The Yellow Turban jointly elected Zhao Hong as the commander, shrunk the troops in various parts of Nanyang, and defended Wancheng with more than 100,000 people.
Jingzhou assassin Xu Xuan, who is honest and acts in accordance with the law. Zeng Lian exposed the Taishou of the five counties of Jingzhou and many subordinate officials, all of whom were investigated, including Zhang Zhong, the Taishou of Nanyang before Chu Gong.
Zhang Zhong is the son of the Empress Dowager Dong's sister, and he uses his power for personal gain and is uninhibited. After Xu Xuan exposed Zhang Zhong, Empress Dowager Dong sent a permanent attendant to intercede for him, but Xu Xuan refused: "As a country, the minister does not dare to obey his fate."
Therefore, the Jingzhou area had fewer rebellions in this Yellow Turban Rebellion. Xu Xuan quickly pacified Jingzhou, and after pacifying Jingzhou, Xu Xuan was ordered to go north. Fight the Nanyang Yellow Turban with Qin Jie.
Although the two armies converged, they were less than 20,000 horses. So I didn't dare to directly surround Wancheng. Wait for the support of the imperial court.
Runan.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei divided into two routes, attacking Chen Guo and Runan Yellow Turban respectively. After Chen Guo's Yellow Turban was pacified by Huangfu Song, Huangfu Song went to Runan to help Zhu Wei pacify Runan Yellow Turban.
At this time, 20,000 soldiers and horses of Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei were besieging Xihua County in Runan.
Xihua City is not big, but there are many yellow scarves gathered inside, and there are more than 15,000 people.
In addition to the original yellow scarf, there is also a yellow scarf led by Gong Du, who escaped from Yangzhai.
Gong is very wise, after Yang Zhai was defeated, he did not choose Jiaxian, Xiangcheng and other counties close to Yang Zhai, but went directly out of Yingchuan and came to Xihua County in Runan.
The trend of the Yellow Turban is gone, and it is useless to flee anywhere. Xihua County was the last city in Runan to be occupied by the Yellow Turbans.
The Yellow Turban soldiers in Xihua City are not as many as the officers and soldiers led by Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei, and their combat effectiveness is even more incomparable, and the rammed earth of the city is less than three zhang high. Dangerous cities are difficult to defend.
Sun Jian held an ancient ingot knife and braved the arrow to enter the city. Behind him, the soldiers advanced like ants.
The low city was instantly ascended by Sun Jian, and after Sun Jian climbed the tower, he killed the Yellow Turban guards of Xihua City.
Gong Du saw that the situation was not right, and broke through the siege. In the end, he fled with only a dozen horsemen. Xihua City was broken, and the remaining Yellow Turbans surrendered.
"The court won't let you and me kill the surrendered Yellow Turban, this must be Liu Fan's idea." After Xihua City was breached, Huangfu Song was not happy.
"Profit is a thief, and there is no profit to beg. What would be better if the people had such misconceptions? Zhu Yan sighed.
The imperial envoy arrived a few days ago and gave an order for the two of them, Liu Hong listened to Liu Fan's suggestion, the yellow turban was only bewitched by Zhang Jiao, and he was still a common man of the Han Dynasty, only killing the head of the thief, and ordinary yellow turbans surrendered and could not be killed.
He also ordered Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei to pacify the Chen State in Runan, and then went to Nanyang to quell the rebellion.
"Maybe it's my wrong approach, after Liu Fan killed Bocai and Peng Tuo in Yang Zhai, in five days, he conquered six cities. It doesn't cost a single soldier. A soldier who surrenders without a fight, is good. It is no wonder that he was named the general of the expedition to the north. Seeing that Huangfu Song was sullen and didn't speak, Zhu Yan continued.
"Give these Yellow Turban captives to Runan Taishou, let him settle, and we will rest our troops and horses and go to Nanyang." The stubborn Huangfu Song did not reply to Zhu Yun's words. Turn away.
He was ashamed at this time, because he had said that Liu Fan had a false name. Although it was just angry talk at the time.
Time has proven everything, and Liu Fan's reputation is well deserved.
"Green is taken from blue, and green is blue. Ice is for water, and cold for water. Come from behind, young and old! Zhu Yan stood in place and muttered to himself.
