Chapter Eighty-Nine: Youzhou Rebellion
Zhang Chun returned to Zhongshan to gather more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, generals, and family members, bewitching the local Wuhuan people and promising heavy profits. Zhang Chun had 2,000 soldiers and horses in a very short time, proclaimed himself the general of Mitian and the king of stability, and swept all the way north.
Zhang Ju is even more good here, scattering all his family wealth to feast on the local Wuhuan head, and plotting to raise troops. The Huan clan, Wang clan, and Bo clan of the Wuhuan tribe responded positively and promised to do their best to help the tribesmen, and for a time they gathered more than 4,000 people and began to loot and burn around.
Qiu Liju, as the Lord of Karasuma in Liaoxi, called himself the Wuheng people of the three counties and issued a conscription order to all the Wuhuan people in the three counties. The Wuhuan settlements in Youzhou were scattered, spanning the three counties, and the Jihua of Qiuliju gathered westward from the Wuhuan people who neighbored Rulou, Fuyu, and Goguryeo in the east, and after meeting in western Liao, they went straight to Feiru.
During the period of Emperor Wu, the Wuhuan people were mainly active in the five counties of Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Liaoxi, and Liaodong, which corresponded to the central and eastern parts of the Xilin Gol League in Inner Mongolia, the northern part of Chifeng City, the northern part of Hebei Province, and the northern part of Liaoning Province. Later, the Wuhuan chieftain (adult) paid tribute to the Han Dynasty and accepted the titles of Hou, Wang, and Junchang. Soon, he led a large-scale relocation to the ten counties on the border. It developed westward to the area of Hetao and Ordos in present-day Inner Mongolia. By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Wuhuan people in Liaodong County, Liaoxi County, Youbeiping, and northern Hebei lived with the Han people in many places inside and outside the Guan.
Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun, and Qiu Liju were concurrently located in three places, and for a time the northern part of Youzhou was full of fire, and the mourning was all over the field.
The rebellion that occurred in Youzhou as the history of Youzhou and the general of the expedition to the north Liu Zhuo knows? Of course he knew, and even everything was under control, from the time when Zhang Ju, Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju were conspiring, he knew that their every move was monitored by the secret agents in Youzhou.
General Zhengbei has been standing still, what he is currently doing is to send an urgent document to the imperial court, or even send it in advance, and have already arranged for fast horses to wait along the way, and the Marshall people will not stop, and they will be delivered to Luoyang as soon as possible. At the same time, in order to prevent the traitors in the DPRK and China from knowing about it and not reporting it, a piece of music was given to several people, and Liu Zhuo had someone in the court.
After the first messengers left, they sent messengers to ask the court for orders, and recruited soldiers on the spot to expand the army and destroy the rebels. Liu Zhuo is very cautious, this pass is Yangguan Avenue, you can't be impatient, you must know that the current court is very complicated and mediocre, if you let people hold the handle, it will be a failure.
"Report, Zhang Chun has already raised troops north."
"Got it, let's find out." "No."
"Report, Captain Wuhuan Gong Qichou was killed by the rebels."
"Got it, let's find out."
"No."
"Yuan Chang, draft the chapter and report it to the imperial court, General Zhengbei is going to raise troops to exterminate the rebels."
"No, my subordinates obey."
"Yuan Hao, issue a recruitment order for the general of Zhengbei, recruit Gongsun Du of Liaodong to lead troops to stop the march route of the Wuhuan rebels in Liaodong to the west, block the enemy, and behead if you violate the order."
"No, my subordinates are honoring the order."
"Then, the general of Zhengbei was issued a conscription order, ordering Gongsun Zan to lead his troops outside the Great Wall Pass to prevent the Wuhuan rebels from entering the Great Wall, and those who violated the order were beheaded."
"No, my subordinates are honoring the order."
……
Damn, what is this thing doing? Let the family lead so many soldiers and horses to stop the enemy, but can the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry be stopped by ordinary troops? Nima, harboring evil intentions!
Yes, this thing is not good-looking. Liu Zhuo knows better than anyone else that the psychology of careerists is not something that ordinary people can figure out! If you don't have enough charm to conquer, some careerists are willing to serve you, if so, it's almost like looking for death.
Besides, these people are not the top figures of Shenma, there are not many of them, there are no less, why take a big risk? Isn't it fatal to stay around? Hehe, that's what it means, war is the best time to eliminate dissidents.
Also, all those big families with a bad reputation also have to be cleared in this chaotic time, haven't you seen that Dian Wei has disappeared recently? The guy was sent out on a special mission. All the characters that are not easy to use and look at are sent to fight hard. If you complete the task, your fate is big, and if you can't complete the task, there is no way to kill you.
Liu Zhuo, this thief is not ordinary ruthless! As a later man, he knew very well that most of the reasons for rebellion in history were related to land, and the concentration of land in the hands of a few people caused the peasants to have no food to eat, and they were forced to rise up and rebel.
Youzhou is located in the bitter cold land of the border of the Han Dynasty, although it is better than the Central Plains, but the problem is already very serious. Besides, the monopolists of these lands are also an obstacle to Liu Zhuo in the future, and even a potential enemy, and it is not beneficial to keep them at all.
As the supreme governor of Youzhou, it is impossible for Liu Zhuo to blatantly attack Shili's very powerful landlord class, if he really does this, his Youzhou assassin history will come to an end. Therefore, the chaos in Youzhou is a great opportunity to eradicate the land monopolist, the big landlords, and the family, and uproot them in the name of the Wuhuan people's plunder, so that their reputation will not be affected at all, and at the same time, they have completed the land revolution in Youzhou, why not?
Every agrarian revolution in history has always been bloody and very cruel, so why should it be so violent? We don't do it to fight local tyrants and divide the fields! It is immoral for you to snatch someone else's own land! This will make a very bad start and have a very bad impact. Isn't it okay to be gentle? Isn't it okay to have a smaller striking surface?
Therefore, Liu Zhuo tried to solve this problem in a way that had little impact. He chose a few relatively large and bad reputation gentry and families in Youzhou to start, and they all started in the dark. As for those slightly smaller local tyrants and families, it will be easy to do, and in a few years, when Youzhou has the final say, it will issue some effective policies to restrict their greedy expansion, so that an agrarian revolution will be slowly dripped in its own spring breeze and rain, and it will be completed unconsciously.
For the arrival of this day, Liu Zhuo carefully prepared for several years, when there were many young orphans in the captured Yellow Turban Army, Liu Zhuo arranged for Dian Wei to gather them together for perfect brainwashing, after several years of military training, these boy scouts became Liu Zhuo's secret armed Liliang.
At the beginning of the chaos in Youzhou, Liu Zhuo arranged for Dian Wei to start deploying with these secret liliang to complete Liu Zhuo's Youzhou Jihua. Therefore, now that Liu Zhuo's personal guard Dian Wei has disappeared, Liu Zhuo has not told anyone, it's not that he doesn't believe in the Wenchen generals under him, it's really not a very glorious thing to do this kind of thing, after all, it is despicable and shameless to do it in the dark, it's simply not a human thing!
