Chapter 135: The Wind Rises

Liu Yu has just taken over the position of Youzhou Assassin, this is the second time he has been in charge of Youzhou, and the first time he served as Youzhou Assassin was in the early years of Guanghe. Youzhou is the northern gate of the Han Dynasty, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, and Zhan often raid the border, the past assassin history adopted the policy of military confrontation, and the violence was counterproductive, but the Yi people were ferocious, but the weak Han soldiers could not resist, so the border has not been peaceful. After Liu Yu took office, he changed his policy towards the Yi people, and opened a mutual market with virtue, so that the Yi people could exchange horses, livestock, and Han people for grain, cloth, salt, and iron (limited to iron production and living utensils, and weapon-grade iron tools were naturally strictly prohibited).

The Yi people can exchange the items they need without looting, so they are naturally happy, and it is rare for a peaceful situation on the border of Youzhou. Liu Yu also moved to Zongzheng because of his merits. Zong Zheng is one of the nine Qings, in charge of clan affairs, although he has no power, but he is an important minister of the court, and he is rich, even Liu Yu thinks that it is a good choice to live in Zongzheng Mansion for a long time.

But after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the development of the situation was often unexpected, Cheng Yuanzhi commanded 50,000 troops to invade Fanyang in Youzhou, Youzhou Assassin Shi Guo Xun and Zhuojun Taishou Liu Wei and more than 10,000 people under the army were gone, none of them lived, and the government and the opposition were shaken. In the end, Emperor Ling could only appoint Liu Yu, the former assassin of Youzhou, to reinstate and control the soldiers and horses of Youzhou to resist the Yellow Turban thieves.

The official system of the Han Dynasty was very strange, in the local area, there were counties and states, and their governors were Taishou and Guoxiang, which were at the same level, and were about 2,000 stone officials, and above them, there was a state-level system. However, the prefecture is not an administrative region, but a supervision district, and the governor of the prefecture is the assassin Shi, whose main responsibility is to inspect the affairs of the subordinate county state, and at the end of the year, send officials to the capital to report to the Situ Mansion (Shangji), and impeach the incompetent county governor.

The Thorn Shi's Yu Lu is much lower than the Taishou, only 600 stones, that is to say, the Thorn Shi is at least several levels lower than the Taishou's rank, so that the following system can prevent duty crimes, but the consequence is that the Thorn Shi's position is inferior and light, and it is often checked and balanced by the subordinate Taishou ministers, and it cannot be dealt with in time when there is a serious emergency.

In the fifth year of Zhongping, under the reign of Zongzheng Liu Yanjian, the states abolished the history of the assassination and changed the state pastor, and served as a high-ranking and powerful courtier, which could be regarded as solving this drawback, but a series of profound consequences caused later were unexpected by the court.

Liu Yu took office in Youzhou this time, but he was not only a supervisor, the emperor personally authorized the capital to supervise the military inside and outside Youzhou, holding festivals, silver seals and green ribbons, that is, the military and political power of Youzhou was handed over to him, although there was no name of state pastor, but there was the reality of state pastor. In fact, not only Youzhou, but also the power of other states has been correspondingly improved, and the state-level system at the end of the Han Dynasty has quietly changed from a supervision area to an administrative region.

But the troubled times have the troubles of the troubled times, the previous assassin and his subordinate officials were wiped out in the battle of Fanyang, Liu Yu is now the commander of the light pole, and all the staff and subordinate officers have to be re-recruited by him, but when he heard that he was going to Youzhou, the alternate Beijing officials who had to let go of their heads on weekdays shook their heads, after all, although the official position is good, they also have to have a life to be. In desperation, Liu Yu could only take a few of his cronies north to Youzhou.

Although there is a silver seal given by the emperor, but the Taishou of the counties of Youzhou did not buy it, supported the army and respected themselves, and did not accept the dispatch, among which the most arrogant attitude was Gongsun Zhan, who had just served as the Taishou of the right Beiping County, refused to go to Youzhou to rescue on the grounds that Wuhuan had violated the boundary.

Although the other Taishou did not disobey the order as openly as Gongsun Zhan, they disobeyed the yin and the yang, prevaricating and perfunctory on the grounds that the army was not in order and the armament was not in order, although they promised to send troops over, but they did not know that it was the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

But Youzhou can't wait, according to the scout report, Cheng Yuanzhi, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal who won a big victory in Fanyang, has already gathered a large army and will invade Zhuo County in the near future. Zhuo County is the southern gate of Youzhou, once lost, Youzhou will be difficult to protect. After the death of the previous Taishou Liu Wei in Fan Yang, the court had appointed a new Taishou, but I don't know if it was because the new Taishou was greedy for life and afraid of death or for other reasons, so he did not arrive for a long time. Liu Yu had no choice but to personally move the Youzhou Assassin Historian Office to Zhuo County and temporarily take over the post of Zhuo County Taishou. But under his command, there are only 5,000 poor Baba men and horses, and it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to defeat the Yellow Turban, which is ten times his size. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses led by the previous assassin were slaughtered by the Yellow Turban Army, which shows that these Yellow Turbans are extremely cruel.

Liu Yu urgently summoned his staff to discuss. Cheng Xu said: "The Yellow Turban thieves are huge, ferocious and brutal, in the battle of Fanyang, 30,000 soldiers and civilians were slaughtered, and now everyone in Zhuojun City is afraid of themselves, the army is disheartened, and I am afraid that I will not be able to fight the enemy, so it is better to retreat to Youzhou and wait for reinforcements." ”

Zhuojun's difficulties, Liu Yu is not unclear, but the new official ran away with his tail between his tail before he took office, this is probably not Liu Yu's style, he just frowned and did not speak.

Captain Zou Jing stood up and said loudly: "No, Zhuo County is the gateway to Youzhou, Zhuo County is lost, how can Youzhou be defended?" The Yellow Turban thieves are huge, if they want to take Zhuo County lightly, they must be even more rampant, and the whole territory of Youzhou may be difficult to protect. ”

Zou Jing was originally a marquis of the Northern Army, and this time Liu Yu was named the captain of Youzhou and the commander-in-chief of the Youzhou military horse. Cheng Xu was born as a literati, so he naturally looked down on Zou Jing, who was a martial artist, and said with a cold smile: "Why is Captain Zou fighting? Is it just a few thousand people in the city of Zhuo County? Do you know that Guo Tingshi can't resist those yellow turban thieves with tens of thousands of elite soldiers. ”

Zou Jing said proudly: "The eldest husband kills the war to serve the country, even if he dies in battle, what is there to fear?" ”

Cheng Xu snorted and said, "Captain Zou is going to hit the stone with an egg and take 100,000 people in Zhuo County to accompany him for the funeral, and he has nothing to say when he falls." ”

Zou Jing looked angry, and was about to attack, Liu Yu waved his hand and said: "At the moment of the great enemy, all colleagues should be sincerely united, such a dispute, wouldn't it be a mess and retreat!" Zou Jing and Cheng Xu had no quarrel.

Yezhong Qi Zhou said: "Since Zhuo County cannot be abandoned lightly, it should stick to the city and avoid its edge, and on the other hand, you can send people to Youbeiping and Liaoxi Daijun and other places to summon the soldiers of various counties. ”

Liu Yu smiled bitterly, if he could summon the soldiers and horses of the subordinate counties, why was he afraid of the Yellow Turban's strength, and sighed and said: "The order to recruit soldiers from all counties has already been issued, but all counties are perfunctory and unwilling to send troops, and the Yellow Turban is urgent, I am afraid that it will be attacked to Zhuo County in the near future, and it will be difficult to quench the thirst of the distant water." ”

Sun Jin said loudly: "Sun Zhan, the prince of Beiping, is arrogant and arrogant, relying on his military merits and has just been promoted from the cavalry captain to the Taishou, so he doesn't take the assassin in his eyes, disregards the military order, pushes three and four, why does Liu Yuanjun need to give him affection, so he will join him in the court to see if he dares to be rampant?" ”

"In such an eventful situation, more things are better than less things, let's discuss how to deal with the enemy in front of us." Liu Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, I'm afraid it doesn't make much sense to hold anyone accountable now.

Don't drive Zhao Caidao: "Since you can't count on reinforcements, Zhuo Jun can't give up, but your subordinates have a plan, I don't know if it's feasible?" ”

Liu Yuxi said: "Zhao don't drive, but it's okay to talk about it." ”

"Wherever the yellow turban goes, the city is destroyed, and the people hate it deeply, so that you can recruit the villagers, fill the army with the young and strong, and resist the thieves."

Liu Yu nodded and said: "This plan is very good, Captain Zou, you will be responsible for this matter, and post notices everywhere in and outside the city to recruit volunteers." "On weekdays, officials in various states and counties have no power to recruit soldiers, and conscription at will is a major crime of rebellion, but since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the court has allowed local officials and heroes to recruit troops on their own to resist the Yellow Turbans.

Zou Jing received the order, and immediately arranged it after going down.

In the south of Lousang Village, the big mulberry tree is still flourishing. Liu Ze stood under the big tree, sighing. Hearing that the Yellow Turban Army was coming, almost all the people in Lousang Village fled for their lives, and the ten rooms were empty, and they couldn't even see a single figure. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood on his left and right sides, Zhang Fei knew that he was in a bad mood, and lowered his voice and said: "Big brother, you have returned to your hometown, and there is about to be a war, you have to cheer up, the matter of Miss Hong'er ......"
