Chapter 11: Zhang Chun's Death

The reason why Liu Yu dared to say so with certainty was that Liu Yu was sure in his heart that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sent Liu Yu to Youzhou to let Liu Yu appease Rong Di, and Liu Yu's policy of Huairou Rong Di was mostly influenced by Emperor Han. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the grassroots government in the northern part of Youzhou was under the double blow of the Yellow Turban peasant uprising and the nomadic rebellion, and the galloping white horse general Gongsun Zan did not play a decisive role.

On the contrary, the long-term effectiveness of military repression has been grossly inadequate. Gongsun Zhan led his troops and the nomadic cavalry to attack each other for five or six years, and the rebellious Wuhuan Qiuliju tribe was not only not repulsed, but the scope of the raid extended south to Xuzhou. Gongsun Chan entered the Tun vassal country, and attacked the Hu people for five or six years, Qiu Liju and other banknotes were slightly green, Xu, You, Ji, and the four states were harmed, and Gongsun Chan could not resist.

It seems that the imperial court also understood that the long-term effect of Gongsun Zhan's military repression policy was sufficient, and the central government was forced to send Zong Zhengqing Liu Yu to serve as the pastor of Youzhou, and to supervise the affairs of Youzhou. At this time, the central government was ruled by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty with the assistance of the eunuch group, which reflected the side of Huairou. And Liu Yu is extremely loyal to the Han family, coupled with his own personality, the Huairou policy just does what he likes.

Hearing Liu Yu say that the imperial court sent his father Liu Yu to serve as the pastor of Youzhou in order to appease foreign races, Xian Yufu said suspiciously: "Recruiting foreign races, this matter is easy to say, but in fact, I'm afraid it's not that easy." Whether it is Wuhuan or Xianbei, they are all ancient, and the court has not thought of appeasing them, but the more they tolerate them, the more they have to make inches, and it is best to solve it only by force. But this alien race has no permanent residence, and we can't destroy it in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Yu said with a smile: "What Lord Xianyu said is not unreasonable. But at this time and that time, I have heard of Qiu Liju, the leader of Wuhuan, this person is still very Han and Han, although there are also acts of aggression against the state and county during his reign, but there are limits, and it does not hurt our roots at all, I think Qiu Liju never thought of rebellion, but was coerced and lured by Zhang Chun and other thieves to do such a big rebellion. ”

Before he could finish speaking, someone said, "This is just your one-sided speculation, so how can we believe it?" ”

Liu Yu didn't even notice who this person was, and continued at the moment: "It's true, this is just my guess, but I believe my guess is not wrong. In this way, as long as we send envoys to Qiu Liju to explain the seriousness of this matter, as long as they can hand over Zhang Chun and the others, the imperial court will be lenient and can exempt them from the responsibility for the crimes they committed. If Qiu Liju really wants to rebel, it is a big deal that there will be another fierce battle at that time, and we will not have any losses. In that case, why don't we appease them? ”

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "What Yu'er said is reasonable, this matter is not bad for us, it is worth a try." If we succeed, we can not only relieve the crisis of General Gongsun Zhan, but also easily capture Zhang Chun and other initiators. Is there anything better to do about it? If not, let's do it. ”

Xian Yufu waited to say again: "But。。。。。。 ”

However, Xian Yuyin understood it, and said: "What Yu Gongzi said is indeed reasonable, it is worth our try, if Qiu Liju does not accept our appeasement and refuses to withdraw his troops for a long time, it will not be too late for us to send troops again in the coming year." ”

It's no wonder that the young Xian Yuyin can serve as a cavalry lieutenant, at least he will not insist on his own right approach in one thing, but can quickly change his decision-making and take better advice, such a person is a talent, and he will find a way to find his own account in the future.

Dong Cao Peng Wei You also said: "I think Qiu Liju will definitely return this time, this time he has already suffered a lot, now that it is winter, the cold weather in the north makes his soldiers probably lose much fighting spirit, with the prestige of Lord Liu Youzhou in his tribe, plus the promised benefits, he has no reason not to accept this friendly condition." ”

Qi Zhou also nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then do what Yu Gongzi said." But who should be sent to be this messenger to persuade Chuliju right now? ”

Liu Yu smiled and said, "I have a good candidate now, but this person is still white. ”

Liu Yu said: "I don't know who this person you are talking about? No matter where the hero comes from, even if he is still white, as long as this mission is successful, it will naturally be a matter of time to increase the official after returning. ”

Getting Liu Yu's promise, Liu Yu's heart was relieved, so that the people he recommended would definitely be grateful to him. And the person Liu Yu wants to recommend is also the talent he wants to recruit in Youzhou, and he wanted to visit in person, but he turned his mind and used today's method to harvest his heart, using his father's power, doing something like this is much easier than lobbying for him to wear out his mouth.

The person Liu Yu wanted to recommend was Yan Rou.

Liu Yu said: "The name of this person I want to recommend is Yan Rou, Yan Rou was a prisoner in Wuhuan and Xianbei since he was a child, and later because of his cleverness and bravery, he was trusted by the kings of Wuhuan and his close relatives, released him, and formed an alliance. He is deeply popular among the Wuhuan tribe, and this person will definitely get twice the result with half the effort when he goes to persuade Qiu Liju. ”

Xian Yufu, who originally disagreed with Liu Yu's approach, also nodded and said at this moment: "Yan Rou, I know, Yu Gongzi is right, this person has been in a foreign race for decades, and he has a deep understanding of the hearts of foreign people, I can't imagine that Yu Gongzi first arrived in Youzhou, and he considered things so thoroughly and in detail, I can't do it, please don't blame the previous things." After that, he also saluted Liu Yu with both hands.

Liu Yu smiled and said generously: "Everyone is in order to solve the problem, disagreement is a good thing, it is precisely because of different opinions that we can have more ideas and countermeasures, not to mention that what Lord Xian Yu thought before is also for our consideration, the key is that as long as we can finally unify our opinions." If there can be no different opinions, then what is the effect and significance of such deliberations? Therefore, adults should not have such thoughts. ”

Everyone admires Liu Yu's generosity, but Liu Yu is not generous, he is such a person, he likes to synthesize other people's different opinions to finally establish the best method. Liu Yu knows that he must perform better now, and only by being praised by more people can he gradually improve his reputation, which will be much more convenient for recruiting talents in the future.

Although Liu Yu has just arrived in Youzhou, Liu Yu is a person who knows history, can he not take advantage of you people?

For Yan Rou, he is a great talent, at least in guarding the northern frontier against foreign invasions, after Liu Yu's death in history, Yan Rou was promoted by Xian Yufu and others as Karasuma Sima, and contacted Xianbei to avenge Liu Yu and confront Gongsun Zhan. After the First Battle of Guandu, Yan Rou led Karasuma and Xianbei to annex, and sacrificed famous horses to follow Cao Cao to conquer Karasuma in the three counties, which contributed very much to Cao Cao's crusade against Karasuma. Cao Cao treated him like a son, and Cao Pi also regarded him as a brother, guarding the north and commanding the soldiers and horses of Youzhou.

Such a talent, for the current Liu Yu has only one idea, if he can recruit his subordinates, he will try to recruit as much as possible, and if he can't recruit, he will also recruit as much as possible, Liu Yu just knew that Yan Rou was not easy to recruit, so he changed his strategy and recommended him to do things for his father, so that he could be crowned and promoted, so as to thank himself.

Now that the matter has been decided, it will be implemented step by step. Youzhou Mu Liu Yu first sent Yan Rou to lobby Qiu Liju, stating to him that he was powerful, and at the same time offering a reward for the wanted Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun.

In order to prevent Qiu Liju from being unwilling to submit, although Liu Yu knew that Qiu Liju was probably willing to hand over Zhang Chun, Liu Yu still asked Liu Yu to send two thousand soldiers and horses equipped with winter clothes, led by Xian Yuyin, the cavalry captain, to Liaoxi County to rescue Gongsun Zhan.

Unbelievably the effect is surprisingly good, the rebellious tribal leader Qiu Liju heard the intention of Liu Yu's envoy Yan Rou, after a conversation, he was very happy, and even withdrew to his territory with the rebellious tribal cavalry, and also sent an interpreter to meet Liu Yu and surrender automatically.

The rebels Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju and others had no choice but to abandon their wives and children, leave the Wuhuan tribe, and flee into the Xianbei tribe, and all the remaining subordinates surrendered or fled.

In March of the sixth year of Zhongping (189), Zhang Chun was killed by a doorman named Wang Zheng on the way to escape, and even his head was sacrificed to Liu Yu. The nomadic rebellion in Youzhou suddenly disappeared, and Emperor Ling of Han immediately promoted Liu Yu to the rank of lieutenant and made him the Marquis of Qiu.
