Chapter Thirty-Nine: Two Pieces of Trouble
Just ended a big war, the Han army naturally could not immediately go to the north of Youzhou for a decisive battle, so they could only correct it on the spot, but the tripartite battle Liu Hong naturally said that it was a big victory, otherwise it would not be conducive to morale.
However, when Liu Hong saw the nearly 100,000 captives, Liu Hong was still very happy, and immediately ordered the state assassin to press the 100,000 captives back to the Han realm, and ordered the cabinet to properly dispose of these captives, which was Liu Hong's capital to make the Han Dynasty rise completely.
You must know that Jiangnan is a treasure land! Especially Lingnan, once developed, that piece can be worth most of the treasury tax of the Han Dynasty today.
From history, we can know that all promising kings have developed Lingnan, and Qin Shi Huang used a million troops to go south to initially develop Lingnan.
Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did the same thing, which is enough to show that the ancients also knew the importance of the south, not to mention Liu Hong, a person of later generations.
Liu Hong has been in power for six years, and has never developed the south, not unwillingly, but the conditions are not allowed, there are family chaos and continuous natural disasters as trouble, there are Xianbei outside, and the Qiang people have repeatedly violated the border, where does Liu Hong have the capital and energy to develop the south!
The first batch of Qiang captives were sent by Liu Hong to develop the canal, in order to lay a smooth road for the future development of the south.
Now that the war in Northern Xinjiang is together, Liu Hong values these prisoners, so the sooner these prisoners are sent back, the better, and the sooner they go back, the sooner they can work!
Those who returned to the Han border with these captives also had the captives after the war, after all, the army would have to march north to Youzhou in the near future, and there would always be many inconveniences with the wounded soldiers.
On that day, Liu Hong personally toasted the 250,000 troops.
At this time, Zhang Chun, who was lying in the carriage and heading towards the Han Realm, frowned, and the Bingzhou Assassin Shi, who was also in the carriage, said, "Why is General Zhang worried? ”
Zhang Chun sighed and said, "It's okay." It's just that I can't participate in such an important battle of our Han Dynasty. I just have some regrets in my heart. ”
Hearing this, the assassin nodded his head. In fact, it is not the case in my heart, Zhang Chun's matter has already been heard, only he was defeated all the way in the three-way war, you must know that the Western Route Army is 90,000 foot soldiers against 100,000 Hun cavalry, but the Western Route Army of the Fifth Army won.
His Zhang Chun's Third Legion had a full 90,000 iron cavalry, but he lost to the Xianbei army with only 50,000 cavalry and 50,000 slave soldiers, and he was seriously wounded.
When the assassin heard the news, his first thought was not to believe it. However, the results of the battle were in front of him, and the Third Route Army only had the Eastern Route Army of the Third Army captured less than 10,000 people, although Liu Hong's usual rewards for the generals were issued after the war, but Zhang Chun's fate was already doomed, and the Third Army was split into the remaining three legions.
How could this be otherwise, Zhang Chun frowned?
The history of the Bingzhou Assassin knew the inside story, so he didn't ask in detail, after all, Zhang Chun was still recuperating from his injuries at this time.
Zhang Chun saw that the history of the state assassin just asked, so he didn't ask anymore, where did he not know that the history of the state assassin already knew about this matter, so he smiled bitterly and said, "The history of the assassin thinks that a certain Zhang Chun is a straw bag?" ”
"Naturally not." And the state assassin Shi hurriedly replied.
Immediately, I saw that Zhang Chun did not believe it. He explained: "At that time, the general was under the command of General Huangfu Gui, and it was extremely heroic to attack Youzhou Xianbei. Subsequently, the Donglai battlefield was repeatedly featen, and the Qiang people did not dare to make a mistake in Liangzhou, who dared to say that the general was a 'straw bag'? ”
Hearing this, Zhang Chun looked at the assassin Shi of Bingzhou excitedly and said, "The assassin understands me, although he has pure vertical and horizontal ability, but he does not understand the way of the battle formation, and there is no fierce general to help him." A few days ago, among the Xianbei army who fought with a certain person, there was a young general, whose strength was extraordinary, and there was no enemy under a certain command under his sword, and even a certain was not his opponent. ”
"Under its charge, no one above the commander of the left-wing army survived, so how could he win? Ahem! ”
In the end, Zhang Chun's voice became louder and louder, and he couldn't help coughing out the wound.
Seeing this, the history of the Bingzhou Assassin hurriedly checked, and saw that Zhang Chun was fine, so he persuaded and explained, "General, Your Majesty knows that the general is in distress, otherwise with the general's fault, I am afraid that he would have been beheaded for public display, you must know that this time Your Majesty's personal expedition can be described as the strength of the country!" ”
Zhang Chun knew that no one could blame him, he could only blame himself, the iron cavalry under his command could be said to be the main force of this battle, but only one day out of the Han realm, he let this main force lose more than half, if the future battle with Xianbei was frustrated due to the lack of cavalry, Zhang Chun did not dare to imagine what the consequences would be.
After resting fifty miles north of Yunzhong County in Bingzhou, the Han army headed east, targeting the Xianbei army in the north of Youzhou.
On the way to the march, Liu Hong looked at Zhang Huan, the governor of the Han Dynasty, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and after putting it down, he muttered, "Zhang Huan!" Zhang Huan'er thinks that I can't find someone to replace you? It is really whimsical to want to support the army and sell it at a price. ”
Immediately, Liu Hong summoned Cheng Yu and asked, "What is Zhang Huan, the Governor of the Hidden Han Dynasty, doing now?" ”
Cheng Yu replied respectfully, "The Governor of Zhang Huan drills his soldiers and horses every day, and the ministers look at it from a distance, and the Xianbei army outside Youzhou also does not move, I think the Metropolitan Governor is afraid of being ambushed by the Xianbei people!" ”
When he said this, Cheng Yu didn't believe it in his heart, the Xianbei army sent a total of 300,000 troops, and there were 200,000 people who came to the territory of this state, and there were 50,000 elites.
At that time, there were only 50,000 elite and slave soldiers left in the north of Youzhou, and the fools knew that there was a problem.
But Cheng Yu had to say so, otherwise he would be trying to frame Zhang Huan.
Liu Hong smiled when he heard this, and said secretly, "Zhang Huan, I don't care what you think, but if you let the Xianbei army attack easily, I can't spare you." Immediately, Liu Hong said emotionlessly, "Zhongde, the purpose!" ”
"No!" Cheng Yu responded to the promise, and prepared the pen and ink and blank holy decree.
"Zhang Huan, the governor of the Youhan Dynasty, feared the enemy like a tiger in battle, causing the Xianbei army to attack the holy car from afar, how could such a person who neglected his duties stay in the post of the governor of the Youhan Dynasty, and he was specially removed from the position of the governor of the Youhan Dynasty, removed from his position as the right general, and removed from his title of Marquis of Wuyuan County. Yang Biao, the assassin of Hanzhou, held the position of the governor of the Han Dynasty. ”
After Cheng Yu finished writing, he hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, the enemy is currently the enemy, is it not appropriate to replace the Metropolitan Governor of Youhan?" ”
Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "It's okay, since he Zhang Huan wants to be idle, then be idle!" ”
Cheng Yu heard the words and said secretly: "Where is this idleness!" Even the title was dismissed, this is simply asking for someone's life, and not to mention the follow-up disposal, nor to say that he was ordered to return to Beijing, isn't this throwing it in Youzhou! ”
At this time, Liu Hong suddenly said, "This time, Er will go to pass the decree, and I will order Youzhou Jinyi Wei to assist Yuer, if Zhang Huan dares to make a mistake, he will be killed on the spot." ”
"Nuo" Listening to Liu Hong's murderous words, Cheng Yu hurriedly agreed.
Cheng Yu knew that Zhang Huan's good days were completely over. (To be continued......)
