The dense population, the livestock that can be seen in the four fields, the confidence and etiquette of passers-by, the caravans that pass by from time to time, all these things, although they are not like the dock forts built everywhere in other counties, seem to be more reassuring, and there is no trace of troubled times. The people who went to Henan for the time really saw the demeanor of the first county under Deng Ji, and they couldn't help but be amazed.

Liu Bei and the others had already passed by last time, but they couldn't help but be envious again.

In the eyes of Deng Ji and others, after more than a year of moving to Chang'an, everything seems to be the same in Luoyang City.

Wu Miao led his concubine and children home, and the army was stationed in various schools in the city. After Deng Ji met with the lazy Han Song, he also went to the school to rest, and the next day, he personally led the four armies to cross Luoshui, turned south, and conquered Wancheng.

Liang County, which passed by, gradually regained its vitality.

Last time Liang County fell to the Cao army, the general Zhou Yi County ordered Lin Fengju to die with the city, after which Deng Ji moved to Chang'an, the Xiao cavalry army was stationed here, and after the Xiao cavalry army was transferred west to participate in the war, only a song of men and horses remained.

Even if Wancheng was given to Liu Bei, Liang County would still be the garrison of the Xiao cavalry army in the future, so Deng Ji did not send a new bias to guard this gateway in the future.

Out of Liang County, into Nanyang County, the counties to the north are now Zhangji's territory.

Deng Ji's army was dispatched, Zhang Ji naturally had been reported, he hurriedly sent an envoy to Liu Biao for help, and ordered the counties to hold on behind closed doors.

Deng Ji's nearly 30,000 troops turned a blind eye to these small county towns, and only cared about rumbling towards Wancheng.

Zhang Ji is also considered a hero, with nearly 50,000 soldiers, and he defended himself in the deep trenches of the city, but it was only a day's work, and the city was broken and killed.

The reason why Wancheng was able to take Wancheng lightly was only because most of the sergeants under Zhang Ji's command were from Xiliang. Middle- and high-ranking generals are all of them.

As for the newly recruited low-level sergeants in Nanyang. There is a lot of hatred for the Xiliang people who are causing trouble in the local area. All right. Under the persuasion of his nephew Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ji's military discipline was indeed much better than before, but even so, it was impossible to expect them not to be hated by the local people and homeless people.

Because of Dong Zhuo, Li and Guo Yan, Zhang Ji's reputation is actually similar to that of his generation, and the princes of the world still dare not get close to him in the slightest, even if Liu Biao has strategic needs, he can only secretly form an alliance with him. Don't dare to put it on the bright side.

Li Dao and others have been defeated and died, but Zhang Ji is still Dong Zhuo's old department that everyone shouts and beats, the world is evil, and he is sandwiched between the three major forces of Deng Ji, Liu Biao, and Cao Cao to survive, can this last long?

If Zhang Ji died three years earlier according to the previous history, Zhang Xiu came to power, and then Jia Xu supported him to stabilize the army's heart, and maybe he could resist stubbornly with Jiancheng.

Now, the people in Wancheng are panicked, and they have been thinking about peace for a long time. If you want to leave a way back for yourself, there will be a lot of people in the Western Liangbu!

If the Xiliang people want to find a way out for their own family, the first thing that comes to mind must be the Xiliang people.

Like today's heroes. The one with the most Xiliang people under his command is Deng Ji!

Jia Xu, the mastermind who is also from Xiliang, will naturally not give up this great opportunity.

From the time of Li Dao and Guo Yan's ambush, the Cao and Deng families from Sizhou and Yanzhou were particularly active in Wancheng, and frequently contacted Zhang Ji's subordinates, but except for two diehards who killed the fine work and reported the matter to Zhang Ji, the rest were all concealed and not reported, which was naturally wavering or secretly losing sincerity, and some even sold well to Cao Cao and Deng Ji at the same time.

Deng Ji's rule does not attract the joy of the wealthy family, but now, how many children of the wealthy family can there be in this lonely army? In addition to the natural advantage of many fellow villagers in Xiliang, the gathering of elite soldiers and the importance of martial artists made the generals even more excited, and only strict military discipline was the only thing these people had to consider.

In this battle against Zhang Ji's generals, Deng Ji overwhelmed Cao Cao and won a big victory, and many generals in Wancheng had secretly changed to Sizhou, just waiting for the opportunity.

Otherwise, the soldiers under his command were already seriously injured and tired, how could Deng Ji be willing to use it to attack the fortified city of Wancheng again, and he also gave Liu Bei a favor.

As soon as the advance of the Sizhou army arrived outside the city, there were people everywhere in the city to rebel, and after a while, the north city gate was also sacrificed.

The details are all alone, there are too many people who have been rebelled, many do not know who else is besides themselves, and do not know when the Sizhou army will arrive, the incident is not unified, the situation at the beginning is really chaotic, and there are not a few accidental injuries.

There were even two men and horses fighting in the city for a long time, until a Sima from another department shouted "A certain has been from Deng Gong", and the other department woke up to "stop, so and so on"!

Seeing that the situation was not good, many local soldiers at the bottom directly abandoned their armor and equipment and went to the houses to seek shelter.

The Xiliang rebels, who were greedy and cruel by nature, went to plunder the people of the big families first.

Then, the rebels who rebelled led the Sizhou army and horses into the city and strangled Zhang Ji's remnants everywhere.

The Sizhou army entered from the north gate, and saw that the general trend had gone, and did not want to follow Deng Ji's Xiliang generals, so they took advantage of the chaos to mix out from other city gates, or ran to Cao Cao, or voted for Liu Biao, and also went to the rivers and mountains to be water thieves.

The rebels and rebels caused great damage in the city, and Wancheng groaned and screamed in the firelight.

Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew couldn't suppress the chaos at all, and when the Sizhou army and horses approached, Zhang Ji still wanted to escape, but he was killed by his relatives, and he held the rank and dedicated to Zhang Liao, the general of Weilie.

Zhang Xiu saw the opportunity earlier, and led the headquarters of four thousand horsemen to escape from the city and go to Cao Cao.

To enter the city, the mighty cavalry suppressed everywhere, stabilized the situation, and won a total of 7,000 rebels who surrendered to Cheng in this battle, and more than 20,000 soldiers.

The total number of soldiers killed in Sizhou was only 234, which was a tight calculation.

Liu Bei was not allowed to participate in the war, so he had to lead his subordinates to accompany Deng Ji outside the city, and he couldn't help but be excited when he saw that the city was so easy. When he saw that a team of soldiers were pressed out, Liu Bei waved at Deng Ji on horseback, and said generously: "Breaking this strong city, all depend on the general Huwei, and these soldiers should be used by Sizhou!" ”

This cheap water made Dian Wei, who was with him, couldn't help but roll his eyes, but he didn't know that Deng Ji actually didn't appreciate it: "Otherwise!" The two families sent troops together, how can Ji be alone? Self-sharing with Xuande Gong! ”

Can you spit it out after eating it? Liu Bei suspected that he had misheard.

Unexpectedly, after all the soldiers who were escorted out of the city gathered in the wilderness outside the city, Deng Ji really ordered, and hundreds of military officials came and went to the crowd of soldiers, preaching the strategy of the fourth-class people, the selection of soldiers, etc., and informing Sizhou that only those who volunteered to go were accepted, and the rest who wanted to return home to the people or attached to Liu Bei could do their own convenience.

Sizhou's policy attracted small people, and the military officials specially mentioned that they could bring their families and children to Sizhou. and there were twelve thousand men who were willing to follow. The rest of the natives who had returned home from their own scattering were three thousand. The remaining six thousand were all assigned to Liu Bei.

Deng Ji then picked a lot of mules, horses, money and grain from the seizure to distribute, and he got great benefits before he made half a effort, which was enough to make Liu Bei Junchen grateful, and repeatedly thanked him, and swore to defend Wancheng for Sizhou.

Deng Jifang, who took advantage of the favor, said: "The new subordinates are still unusable, and the army is stationed outside the city for rectification, and I will leave my son to lead the Huya Army to temporarily defend Wancheng." The rest of the three armies took the surrounding counties for their feet! ”

It's really a good guy to do it to the end.

Zhang Ji was defeated, and the counties of Beinanyang County could be determined, why did they need three strong armies like wolves and tigers to conquer?

Liu Bei has not yet come back, Deng Ji has sent a message to the horse, gathered the three armies, and only the rebels led by Tai Shici and the Huya Army surrendered to Cheng are willing to settle in Wancheng with the soldiers who went north.

was rejected, Liu Bei knew that the Huya Army still had to loot, but now everything came from the other party's charity, but he could only smile and let others take it, and his own family first collected and surrendered outside the city. Make Guan Yu Chen to wait for daily drill training.

It's just that there are words of suffering for Sizhou Jun's next behavior.

Wancheng has long had many internal responses. Zhang Ji is extremely easy to break, if it weren't for the greater benefits, would Deng Ji need the four armies together?

This advantage is naturally that Nanyang has an abundant population, and most of the newly arrived Xiliang areas are still empty.

Historically, after Cao Cao occupied the two most populous counties in Nanyang and Hanzhong, he also migrated to the north on a large scale, just to fill the households in the Central Plains, and this migration was still mandatory.

The Sizhou army has entered Nanyang several times, but the territory wants to break up the clan resettlement, and the middle-aged men and the old and weak women and children want to form households, Deng Ji can't use the strong, he is a native of Nanyang, and he doesn't want to bear a greater notoriety among the villagers, so he can only ask for other ways.

Fortunately, there are now more than 2 million people in Nanyang, many of them are new refugees, most of the newcomers have not yet made a living, in order to attract them, the army has not yet left Chang'an, there are nursery rhymes that have been used in Hedong before the spread of Nanyang, saying: "Mu An ruled, give the house field." Widows and widows, all there is support! There are two buckets of tax per mu, and there is no fee left. Soldiers are forced to do hard labor, and they are not recruited! Wherever you go, you can live in peace! ”

In Wancheng, he gave Liu Bei more benefits, but to appease him for this matter, so as not to be angry in the end, and the tree friend would become an enemy.

The four armies came out to protect the households that moved north with them and to prevent Liu Biao's bad deeds.

However, Liu Biao had no intention of confronting Deng Ji at this time, Sun Ce, the tiger of Jiangdong, swept Jiangdong, no one was invincible, and the rise was unstoppable.

Deng Ji's army showed off its might in Nanyang, and throughout the winter it was bewitching the people to move north, and Liu Jingsheng had to swallow his anger and ordered the soldiers north of Hanshui to gather in Fancheng to defend themselves.

Fortunately, Deng Ji did not go to occupy the county town without soldiers and generals, but only went to the countryside to persuade the people to go north.

Or in order to go to the place where there are many good doctors to avoid the unending plague, or to seek a field to support the family, or to rely on the craftsmanship to gain attention, or to avoid the oppression of the wealthy family, or just because of admiration, in the winter of the third year of Jian'an, there are definitely not a few people who are willing to go north with them, and Deng Ji's harvest in Nanyang can be described as huge.

It was a huge project that took a long time, and every 350,000 people gathered were escorted away by a military horse.

Although the road through Wuguan is closer, there are many canyons and dangerous roads, which are not conducive to large-scale immigration, and the people who move away have to enter Henan first through Liang County.

Liu Bei, the lord of Wancheng, had to camp in the wilderness throughout the winter, except for training his newly acquired 6,000 new soldiers, he could only watch the brigade of people go north through the outskirts of Wancheng with a resentful gaze.

After the beginning of spring, more than 400,000 people were sent to Henan before and after, such as poor households, displaced people, craftsmen, and wealthy tribes, etc., and these people were arranged by Tian Chou Han Song, and the new household registration was demarcated, and the officials and servants transferred from various counties in Liangzhou were led by a steady stream of people to settle down in Xiliang, and after thousands of miles of migration, they were given land, and then the government lent grain and livestock and farm tools to wait for spring sowing.

With such a long migration in winter, no matter how well it is organized, more than 10,000 people froze to death on the way, but before and after passing through Henan Hongnong Sanfu, what they saw and heard along the way made countless people begin to face the future with hope.
