Chapter 529: The gathering place of the Yingchuan party
After discussing the disposal of the thieves and prisoners with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, Fu Quan took people out of the official residence and prepared to visit the Changshe scholars.
After all, it was the first time in his life to come to Yingchuan, and Yingchuan, like his hometown Xuzhou, was famous for being a talent concentration in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty. Although his status as a relative may not be treated well by those Yingchuan political scholars, in the final analysis, he was also born in a great Confucian family, and the two thousand Yang Duhou of the Han Dynasty, even if they don't want to see themselves and don't want to see themselves, they have to look at the face of the family and political background behind them, and talk to themselves.
Thinking of the rise of Yingchuan County since the Later Han Dynasty, it can be said that it is an elite talent, and many elites such as celebrities, calligraphy, strategy, or law are Yingchuan people, Fuquan can't hold back his mood and wants to visit these elites.
As for the reason why Yingchuan County can suddenly be so powerful, in Fuquan's view, there are many reasons alternately, and in addition to this, it is impossible for other states and counties in the world to have such a talent boom, even if it is a talent pool in the late Han Dynasty such as Xuzhou and Yizhou, in some political aspects, it is not as good as Yingchuan's political talents.
One reason is that the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and since the Han Dynasty, it has attached great importance to the law. Emperor Wu of the former Han Dynasty "Confucianism and internal law", Emperor Xuan believed that "the Han family has its own system, which is a tyrant and miscellaneous", and cannot "purely teach morality and use Zhou government", since entering this dynasty, although the Confucian doctrine has spread more and more widely, the status of the law is still very important, and there are many generations of famous legal scholars who are dressed and crowned with the law and produce high-ranking officials.
Especially Yingchuan this place, in the Spring and Autumn Period, belonged to Zheng, after Zheng was destroyed by Korea, and became the capital of South Korea and the main sphere of influence, from Zheng Guoshi's sub-production of the casting of criminal books, legislative system, to Shen Buxian's change of law in Korea, and then to Han Fei at the end of the Warring States Period, the great achievement of the idea of making a fortune, and the early Han Dynasty county people Jia Shan, Chao Cuo, Han Anguo, etc., strongly advocated the name of the penal spell, so as to gradually form a social atmosphere of "Gao Shi Eun, good grammar" in Yingchuan, among which Yang Zhai Guo's and Changshe Zhong's are the leaders in this.
Second, since the beginning of the Later Han Dynasty, in Runan County, next to Yingchuan County, the original Western Chu scholar style began to gradually change, evolving into a dissolute and uninhibited scholar atmosphere, and then this atmosphere moved closer to the adjacent Yingchuan County, resulting in the political atmosphere of Yingchuan County, and then the original radical and courageous atmosphere of Legalist scholarship became more radical, so that the local scholars of Yingchuan more advocating politics, and their own political color became more and more intense.
Third, it is the party force that the Later Han Dynasty has been unable to bypass, it can be said that the original starting point of the party power of the Han Dynasty is Yingchuan County. And it is precisely because of the existence of the party's power that Yingchuan County has determined its own unique side in the entire Later Han Dynasty and even the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, so that during the Wei and Jin dynasties, Yingchuan County and even Yuzhou scholars had incomparable fame and power in the whole world.
The reason why this is the case is that Yingchuan celebrities are intertwined with each other, and the situation of marriage and secular friends is particularly close, which is incomparable with other counties. It can be said that all the wang clans in the county, there are in-laws between each other, when the party people piled up in the court, there were many officials of the Yingchuan scholars, which is also the reason why the party was opened, the Yingchuan scholars suffered the most damage, and hated the Han family the most, the fundamental reason is that there are many forbidden people in their families, and they can not be officials in this life, they can meet each other.
Fourth, since Emperor Shun of the Later Han Dynasty, eunuchs gained power, imperial power politics could not function normally, and ethnic minorities and internal uprisings continued, and the sinister political situation made scholars no longer concentrate on academics and devote themselves to political careers.
In a sentence of later generations, once anything is involved in politics, it will change its taste, and this is the case of Yingchuan County in the Later Han Dynasty, where they really hold the power of the court, especially after the leader of the party is Li Ying, the behavior of forming a party for personal gain is common. Of course, for these clans, ordinary corruption and bribery are obviously not their goal, their family is not all wealthy families, what they really want is the political rights that the imperial power has been protecting, so there will be a dispute between the inner and outer dynasties.
Fifth, since Emperor Shun, the scholars have been running and shouting, "stirring up fame, inscribed each other, tasting the ministers, and ruling at their discretion", trying to turn the tide of the tide, shoveling the eunuchs, and clearing the monarch's side.
However, time and time again, they who only grasped the words of the court were suppressed by the army under the imperial power, and after countless suppressions, the strict political situation made them more urgent to marry to ensure the growth of their court power, which further intensified the faction between the Yingchuan scholars and a certain degree of detachment and xenophobia.
Sixth, since the Later Han Dynasty, local power has been constantly unbalanced under the influence of the powerful clan. However, the central scholars formed a party membership, and through their own political rights, they constantly influenced the appointment and dismissal of local officials, resulting in the local celebrity clans being able to manipulate local politics by monopolizing the position of governors and county guards because of their special family background.
On the one hand, it further promoted the formation of factions among the local clans in Yingchuan, and also greatly weakened the control ability of the central government of the Han Dynasty over Yingchuan. Of course, this point is not only unique to Yingchuan, but also the entire Han at this moment.
Seventh, under the severe political situation after the eunuch dictatorship, it is a godsend for the Ru Ying celebrities who lack the elegance and are keen on politics.
Compared with Runan County, Yingchuan County has many famous people among the party, and finally won the title of party leader, which further aggravates the in-law party between the scholars and heroes of Yingchuan County.
This time, Fuquan wants to visit the Dashi clan of Yingchuan County, the Zhong family of Changshe, whose family background is well-dressed, and it is the Wang clan of Yingchuan County. It is a legal family known as Yang Zhai Guo's family, and its famous people such as Zhong Hao, who once served as Gongcao of Yingchuan County, taught more than 1,000 disciples of protégés, and the other person is a person named Zhong Xuan.
knocked on the Zhong family's mansion in Changshe City, and reported his identity to the Zhong family's servants,
Because when they entered the city before, the scholars in Changshe City came with Zhu Jun to greet Fuquan and Huangfu Song, so
The night was deep, west of the long society, under the bright moonlight, countless people wearing yellow scarves hurriedly fled, the more west, the more people in the team, everywhere they went, the quiet night sky was the march of the yellow turban moth thieves, breaking the original tranquility.
In front of this team of yellow turban moth thieves, among the hundreds of moth thieves on horseback, Bo Cai looked at the team behind him dragging on foot, mixed feelings and sorrows.
I am happy that my team was originally defeated and fled, under the suppression of the Han army, there were more than 20,000 people left who could survive, but I didn't expect this escape, the team was doubled, there were more than 50,000 people.
What worries us is that compared with the soldiers and horses that had been prepared for a long time before the Bocai rebellion, the current contingent is incomplete in armor, insufficient weapons, not abundant in food and grass, and not precise in combat effectiveness, and is far inferior to the previous one in terms of numbers, equipment, soldier quality, and combat strength, and I don't know what to do in the future.
As for the reason why Bocai's army has such a change, it is naturally because after he fled from the defeat of Changshe, he led the remnants of the army all the way to the west, which can be described as a quick horse, and when he was tired, he only ordered the soldiers to rest for a while, and when he was sleepy, he only ordered the soldiers to sleep for a while.
Those who resisted were killed on the spot, and then looted valuable goods and food from house to house, and finally burned down the villages and towns, destroyed the heavens and the earth, and forced the landed people who originally lived and worked in peace and contentment to become "civilians" without land and houses, and then forced them to join the Yellow Turban Army, and then slowly brainwashed them with the teachings of the Taiping Dao, which naturally expanded their own strength.
Of course, just like the initial routine of many mud-legged homeless people in history, the consequences of Bocai's actions are naturally and quickly pulled up, but there is no doubt that there will be many women and children here, as well as many young people who don't know how to fight at all, compared with professional soldiers, they are afraid that they will go to the battlefield, and most of them may flee in fear.
However, even if he knew this, Bo Cai would not care, that is, these forcible soldiers did not have any combat effectiveness, but as cannon fodder, it was undoubtedly the best choice, and he would not feel distressed anyway.
If what really distressed Bocai was, of course, the unsuccessful onslaught on Huangfu Song, but he was repeatedly defeated by the Han army and suffered heavy losses.
4. 50,000 armorers, tens of thousands of crossbows, 20,000 Taiping Dao faithful believers, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, it can be said that most of the essence of Yuzhou Taiping Road, the main force of the Yellow Turban in Yingchuan County, did not fight in a battle, and did not get the full merit, which made Bocai feel distressed.
Why? Why?
When he fled, Bo Cai always kept thinking about this in his heart, you must know that Yuzhou was once the most smooth state in the development of Taiping Road, which made the Han Dynasty uneasy to sleep, and the Han Dynasty's hundred officials and ministers were frightened by it, and the existence of the world's attention, and now it was defeated by the Han army, which really made Bo Cai unable to figure it out.
The Yellow Turban Army of Yingchuan County is like this, and I don't know what about the Yellow Turban Army of Runan County, which is also Taiping Road in Yuzhou? And the great sages and good teachers in Jizhou in the north don't know what the situation of the rebellion is? Could it be that this Han family's cangnami really deserves to die?
Extremely disappointed in his heart, Bo Cai no longer thinks about the ethereal future, and at the moment he is still thinking about how to bring his soldiers and horses to survive in this world!
"The order, all departments will train the soldiers, be on guard for the march, make every effort to capture Yangzhai, and after entering the city, release the troops for three days." Looking at the west, Bo Cai, who was originally from Yingchuan County, knew in his heart that Yingchuan County Zhiyang Zhai was still fifty miles away from here, so he ordered.
In order to ensure that he could leave Yingchuan County and still have some considerable strength, Bocai set his goal at Yang Zhai, the county governor of Yingchuan County, at this moment.
In fact, Yang Zhai was originally in Bocai's offensive plan, if it weren't for the Han Dynasty soldiers and horses of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to quell the chaos, Bocai would have reorganized his troops and horses and attacked Yangzhai County.
And now, the reason why Bo Cai is on the way to escape, and he is still risking to attack Yang Zhai, is naturally because Yang Zhai is the county ruler of Yingchuan County, and there are many weapons in the arsenal in the city.
Secondly, since the beginning of this dynasty, Yingchuan has a large number of scholars and countless wealthy households, and Yangzhai is the county governor of Yingchuan County, and the rich families of the city do not need to say much. For Bo Cai, who has just been defeated and is in dire need of money and food, these rich scholars can completely solve his urgent needs, so this is also the reason why Bo Cai still has to take the risk of attacking Yang Zhai even if he knows that there may be pursuers from the Han Dynasty in the rear of his army.
"Kill!"
"After breaking the city, release the troops for three days!"
"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand!"
"The year is in Jiazi, and the world is lucky!"
……
A few moments later, a group of Yellow Turban Moth thieves who had just escaped from a crushing defeat, and the people who had lost their homes and were forced to follow the thieves, shouted slogans from time to time, as if they had heard something exciting.
Maybe it may be that they simply want to take revenge, and want to completely pour the misfortune they have encountered on others, these yellow turban moth thieves, constantly waving all kinds of weapons in their hands, went straight to Yangzhai County.
