Chapter 163: Zhang Chun's rebellion
In May of the fourth year of Zhongping, when the edict awarded by the imperial court and the second batch of immigrants from Chen State arrived in Liaodong, Huo Yu, as the lord of Liaodong and Xuansu counties, hurriedly received the edict and sent the angel away. In the eyes www.biquge.info of everyone, with a series of scientific and technological innovations in the craftsman's workshop, the lives of the people in Liaodong and Xuansu counties have been greatly improved, but Huo Yu has never been happy.
After the end of spring ploughing, Huo Yu issued three successive orders to strengthen military training, and devoted himself to military training. The increase in a large-scale military formation every month made all the recruits feel like they were facing a great enemy, and all the civil and military officers under their command also sensed the strange atmosphere.
"Yuan Jian, have Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping ever returned?" Huo Yu, who was sitting on the platform, looked at the meticulously trained soldiers in front of him and asked without looking back.
"My lord, I haven't returned!" Liao Hua stepped forward and replied.
"Is there any important news for the Darkfeather Guard?"
"My lord, Putou and Helian are inseparable on the grassland, and the Southern Xiongnu Yufuluo has also begun to grab Xianbei's territory!"
"Is there any news from Yuyang?"
"Nope!"
Huo Yu frowned, his right hand supported his chin, and his left index finger kept tapping on the armrest of the Taishi chair. It seemed that he was paying attention to the battle formation training in front of him, but in fact, his mind had already run to the clouds. Seeing this, Liao Hua didn't bother anymore and retreated to the side. The questions just now, Huo Yu has been asking them almost every day for a while, but there is always no follow-up, which makes the second monk of Liao Hua puzzled.
Although he asked Dian Wei in private, Dian Wei just shook his head vigorously to indicate that he didn't know. In this way, day by day, Huo Yu was running between the military camp and the Taishou Mansion all day long. With the annexation of the small tribes around Liaodong, Huo Yu organized the cavalry of these nomadic tribes into an army led by Zhang Fei and Zhang He, and gave the name wolf to ride.
The outfit of these cavalry also made Huo Yu work hard, in addition to the conventional blades and armor, each cavalry had a wolf-headed mask on their helmet, which was contained in the helmet on weekdays, and was only put down in wartime. These 10,000 wolf riders were all trained according to Huo Yu's ideas, and the scene of charging up changed to the general public.
And the most elite flying feather rider in Liaodong is still maintained at 5,000, which is already the limit of what Huo Yu can bear. In addition to Xu Rong, who led 10,000 to Xuanwu County to obey the dispatch of Xi Zhicai, the remaining 15,000 people were led by Huang Zhong and were responsible for the defense of Liaodong. The 1,600 people led by Gao Shun were trapped in the camp, which was used as Huo Yu's secret weapon, and they camped and trained alone on weekdays, and outsiders could not see it.
Two months have passed in a flash, Huo Yu's anxious mood has long calmed down, and it is necessary to come sooner or later, but it is hard to worry about the sky.
"Report! Lord, Su and Zhang have important things to see outside the barracks! A captain patrolling the camp hurriedly came to report.
"Quick, please go to the big tent of the Chinese army!" Hearing the news, Huo Yuluo got up and said.
The captain took the order and left, and Huo Yu took Dian Wei and Liao Hua towards the Chinese army's big tent. After a while, the captain came with Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping.
"See the lord!" After seeing Huo Yu, the two hurriedly saluted.
"No need to be polite! What can the two gentlemen find? Huo Yu raised his hand slightly and said.
Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping glanced at each other, and Zhang Shiping took the lead in speaking: "My lord, I went to Wuhuan this time to find out that Qiu Liju has been preparing for war. Moreover, Qiu Liju's invitation to Gongsun Chan several times was successful! ”
"Oh? But any other news? Huo Yu asked again.
"Lord Yu, Qiu Liju has close contacts with Yuyang, and he is secretly exchanging a large number of blades and armor! There must be a big move, but we can't tell what it is! Su Shuang added.
"It's hard work two gentlemen, I'll rest for a few months when I come back this time, I'm afraid there will be something wrong with the Wuhuan people!" Huo Yu said excitedly.
"Yuan Jian, send the two gentlemen out of the camp, and then send someone to convene everyone to discuss the barracks, and you will go to Gongda in person."
"Nuo (subordinates retired)!" Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping, and Liao Hua saluted together.
Half an hour later, all the civil and military forces had arrived, but Huo Yu was silently waiting for something without saying a word. Seeing this, everyone was very surprised, but no one asked, and they all waited silently. After a long time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent, and I saw Shi A enter and worship, and then whispered in Huo Yu's ear.
"Should I remind him?" After listening to Shi A's speech, Huo Yu said secretly in his heart.
After some intense thinking, Huo Yu finally made up his mind, and then cleared his throat and said to everyone in the tent: "According to the news brought back by Dark Yuwei, Su and Zhang, it can be confirmed that the Wuhuan people are going to make a big move, and it is very likely that someone will cooperate with the outside!" ”
After Huo Yu threw out this bomb, the entire big tent suddenly boiled. For the generals, only by fighting can they give full play to the value of their existence.
"My lord, can you be more specific?" Zhang He said before Zhang Fei.
"Yu can't be unpredictable, all of this is speculation! Gather you and wait today, just to get a good wind, so that you can be prepared! In fact, Huo Yu knew everything in his heart, but he couldn't say it, so this excuse was in the past.
"Hey, hey, lord, I can't do without Zhang Yide in the war!" Zhang Fei got up and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Huo Yu smiled and waved his hand, motioning for him to sit down. Then he turned to Huang Zhongyan and said, "Brother Han Sheng, the war is together, and Yu only takes the cavalry to go." Liaodong defense please, Xiangping City can be handed over to Gao Shun! ”
"No! Rest assured! Huang Zhong stood up and saluted and replied.
"Gongda, immediately prepare the army for logistical supplies, and once the news comes, Yu can send troops! The big and small affairs of Liaodong are decided by you! ”
"No, it's just that the lord still needs to recruit a large number of talents, and this body can't bear it for a long time!" Xun You, who was not smiling, suddenly said such words, which made everyone laugh, and the depressing atmosphere disappeared.
In July, the scorching heat was unbearable, and Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou, received an urgent report, and Zhang Chun, the former minister of Zhongshan in Jizhou, raised troops to rebel, and Yuyang Haoqiang responded to it, and the thieves gathered more than 100,000. And there was a Wuheng man, Qiu Liju, who responded to Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, killed Gong Qichou, the captain of Wuhuan, and surrounded Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, in Guanzi City, Liaoxi. The situation is very critical.
It was already August when the news reached Liaodong, in fact, Huo Yu had to report it a long time ago, but he didn't publicize it in order to achieve what he wanted. Now Gongsun Zhan's personal guards broke through the siege and asked for help, so he had no choice but to gather his subordinates to discuss the matter of sending troops to quell the rebellion.
