Chapter 175: Seeking a position, Langya Prime Minister
"At the end of the day, we will successfully complete the task of the main bus generation!"
Hua Mulan led the cavalry out of Guo to greet Chu Tian, her cheeks were white from the cold, she should have been stationed on the city wall, worried that Ling Cheng would be lost. It wasn't until Chutian arrived that she felt a little relieved.
"You lead the cavalry with me to attack Jucheng."
Chu Tian just nodded, he couldn't reward Mulan more now, so he could only write down the credit first, and then wait for Chu Tian's official position to be promoted, and then officially canonize Mulan's official position.
Some princes and lords could privately set up official positions to win over their subordinates. Chu Tian can be called king now, but under the premise that the title is not enough, he will be hostile to everyone, and even the people's will decline.
Yuan Shu was the emperor on the premise of not having enough strength, and as a result, everyone rebelled and left.
With his current territory, Chu Tian did not dare to risk the condemnation of the world, he would only privately claim to be a county commander, a cavalry lieutenant and other official positions that were not salty or light.
"Sun Guan, you and Sun Kang are temporarily stationed in Lingcheng, and there must be no loss."
"Yes!"
Sun Guan and Sun Kang understood that this was Chu Tian's test for them, and immediately accepted it.
So Chu Tian was able to personally lead the main force to pacify Jucheng.
Jucheng and Linjiang, Pinglu, A, Jimo five cities are one of the "five capitals" of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even in the Han Dynasty is a large city, so Langya State governs Ju County.
Now that Xiao Jian, the prime minister of Langya, was killed by Li Guang, this is actually a tricky matter.
The status of the prime minister of Langya is very high, and he is at the same level as the county prince. There are only five counties in the whole Xuzhou, that is to say, there are only five ministers or taishou, and their status is second only to the history of thorns.
Chu Tian's subordinates killed a state minister, and he was not easy to explain to the Xuzhou Assassin and the Eastern Han court.
Although the world was in turmoil, the Xiliang rebels and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army killed many Taishou and even assassinated Shi, but Chutian did not plan to be a rebel.
Therefore, it is still necessary to explain to Tao Qian and the Eastern Han Dynasty why he killed Xiao Jian.
At present, Chutian has no good reason.
On his way to attack Jucheng, he asked the resourceful Fang Xuanling: "General Li Guang's killing of the prime minister of Langya will definitely cause the dissatisfaction of the Xuzhou assassin Shi Taoqian and the imperial court, how can I get rid of the crime?" β
"General Li Guang can be handed over to the imperial court."
"Nope."
Chu Tian would not hand over Li Guang in order to kill a Xiao Jian who was estimated not to be even a gold-level hero.
Fang Xuanling just ridiculed, and finally made a formal suggestion: "The lord can forge a letter to falsely accuse Xiao Jian, the prime minister of Langya, of colluding with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army and attacking Xuzhou in the south. β
"Wonderful."
Chu Tian was very satisfied with Fang Xuanling's strategy.
Langya Kingdom is just south of Beihai Kingdom, if Xiao Jian, the prime minister of Langya State, is falsely accused of secretly having dealings with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, then Xiao Jian deserves to die.
Chutian just needed a plausible excuse. Anyway, Xiao Jian has been killed by Li Guang, Xiao Jian can't be resurrected and Chu Tian can only be convicted of colluding with the Yellow Turban Army.
"Isn't that what I've done?"
Chu Tian thought about it for a while, Xiao Jian was the minister of Langya, and Chu Tian's official position was the lieutenant of Kaiyang County, and Xiao Jian was Chu Tian's nominal boss. Li Guang killed Xiao Jian, not only did he not have to bear the charge of killing his boss, but eradicated the scourge for Xuzhou, which undoubtedly killed two birds with one stone.
Fang Xuanling bowed to Chu Tian: "Exactly, the lord is not only innocent, but also can ask the court for a reward." β
ββ¦β¦β
What else can Chu Tian say, Fang Xuanling looks personable, and as a strategist, he still has a bad stomach.
Fang Xuanling continued: "The lord can ask the families of Xuzhou to prove this matter, so as to ask the imperial court for merit and seek the position of Langya Prime Minister. There are three reasons why the family in Xuzhou will agree. First, the lord has occupied Kaiyang, Yangdu, Juxian three fertile places, subdued all the Taishan thieves, in fact, has dominated the Langya country, the wood has become a boat, let the court send other Langya ministers, will be the lord of the air. β
Fang Xuanling was telling the truth, and he was blunt in front of Chu Tian.
To put it bluntly, Chutian controls the core area of Langya State, which seems to be a system of its own. The imperial court airborne a new Langya Prime Minister, and when he came to Chutian's territory, he still had to look at Chutian's face and act. Chutian currently does not have the name of Langya Minister, but already has the reality of Langya.
In the troubled times of the Eastern Han Dynasty, whoever has soldiers and food has the right to speak. Xiao Jian, as the prime minister of Langya, is not as powerful as Zang Ba stationed in Kaiyang, which can be seen.
"Second, the Xuzhou family is afraid that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army will cause damage to Xuzhou by the south, and wants to rely on the lord to defend the northern gateway of Xuzhou, so they always have to give the lord a name, right? It is not too much for the lord to ask them for the official position of the prime minister of Langya. β
Third, the Xuzhou family doesn't care who rules Xuzhou, but whether they can ensure the interests of their family. The lord secretly courted them, and they helped the lord to get the official position of Langya Prime Minister, how could they refuse the lord? β
Fang Xuanling's analysis penetrated into it, and Chu Tian couldn't help but nod secretly.
He originally planned to rely on his relationship with Dong Zhuo to secretly contact Dong Zhuo and ask for the position of Langya Prime Minister. Now it seems that maybe the families in Xuzhou can help him achieve this goal.
As for Dong Zhuo, let's see if I can ask Dong Zhuo for the position of a chariot general in the future.
Although he already has titles such as Tian Khan and Taishan Thief Leader, Chu Tian still wants to hang a position as a general, especially the hussar generals and generals of the Han Dynasty, which sounds enough to deter the other party.
"After the capture of Jucheng, he contacted the Mi family, and used the Mi family to establish a relationship with other families to seek the prime minister of Langya."
Chutian is still in the position of the prime minister (Taishou) of Langya.
The level of Taishou and Thorn History can already be called princes in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
In other words, Chu Tian could participate in the Kwantung Alliance's crusade against Dong Zhuo as a prince.
Only lords who have been officially canonized by the imperial court as Taishou or Assassin and have a certain strength will be regarded as one of the heroes.
Thinking that he would have the opportunity to become one of the Kanto heroes who crusaded against Dong Zhuo in the future, Chu Tian couldn't help but look forward to the plot of the crusade against Dong Zhuo.
Chutian has an understanding of Dong Zhuo's development.
Dong Zhuo in "Lord" is very strong with the support of the lords of Guanzhong, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou. Many lords knew that Dong Zhuo's plot was about to start soon, so they tried their best to please Dong Zhuo and fish in troubled waters.
The benefits that Dong Zhuo can provide to the player are, firstly, canonized official positions, and secondly, after Dong Zhuo's death, many lords may divide his territory, soldiers, horses, and talents.
Chu Tian thought a little far.
He commanded the soldiers and horses to come to the bottom of Jucheng, and was ready to storm Jucheng. But the gates of Jucheng were wide open, and a group of players took Xiao Jian's 2,000 soldiers and horses left in the city out of the city to surrender.
"Xiao Jian, that idiot doesn't know your prestige, he is killing himself, we are willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light."
"We have tried our best to persuade Xiao Jian to surrender, but unfortunately ......"
As this group of players who served as Xiao Jian's disciples showed their loyalty, Chu Tian understood, and this group of players persuaded Xiao Jian's generals to stay in the city and surrender the city directly.
Chutian accepted their surrender.
can take Jucheng without blood, and Chu Tian is naturally willing.
He also underestimated his influence in the player base. Chu Tian's prestige was enough to make ordinary small and medium-sized lords look down on the wind. The real enemy of Chu Tian is still a group of big lords who are not weak, or a group of lords who join forces.
So Chutian entered the city with soldiers and horses and included Ju County in his sphere of influence.
At present, Jucheng has a population of 300,000.
Regardless of the rest, Xiao Jian's governance in Ju County is quite good, and the population has not decreased sharply because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. It's a pity that he was directly cut by Li Guang.
Occupying Jucheng, Chu Tian faced another problem, he needed a general to garrison Jucheng.
"Ju County has a larger population than Yangdu County, and there is an abundance of grain that has not been destroyed. Zhou Yafu was stationed in Ju County. As for Yangdu County, it was garrisoned by Zang Ba with troops. β
Chu Tian ordered the reliable Zhou Yafu to move to Ju County.
A very simple reason is that the more populous the city, the more important the city, the more important it is to send people from close friends to garrison. The secondary city can be garrisoned by ordinary generals.
Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, and his stronghold was attacked by LΓΌ Bu, and he successfully defeated LΓΌ Bu by virtue of three important cities, Juancheng, Fanxian and Dong'e.
Chutian sent Zhou Yafu to be responsible for pacifying the other lords of Ju County.
Xiao Jian did not attack the surrounding lords before his death, and there should be more than a dozen villages and towns of small and medium-sized lords in Ju County who did not surrender.
Zhou Yafu has suppressed the small and medium-sized lords more than once, and he has a lot of experience in this area. The small and medium-sized lords who were attacked by Zhou Yafu all felt what it meant to be desperate.
Their generals will be constantly defeated by Zhou Yafu, who is fighting steadily, and Zhou Yafu has the support of Chu Tian, and now he takes thousands of people with him every time he goes out, and there is no problem in bullying the small and medium-sized lords.
Yangdu County, the last of Kaiyang, Yangdu, and Ju counties, was destroyed by the war, and its population was smaller than that of Kaiyang and Ju counties, so Chutian handed over Yangdu County to Zang Ba to guard.
"The last general led his troops to garrison Yangdu County? The lord is not worried about the ...... of the general"
Soon after Zang Ba surrendered to Chutian, Chutian was relieved to hand over the heavy responsibility of guarding a county to him, which flattered Zang Ba. You must know that Zang Ba has the greatest influence among the Taishan thieves, if Zang Ba raises his arms and shouts, maybe the generals who were born as Taishan thieves will be betrayed by Chutian.
"There is no doubt about employing people. You led 3,000 foot archers to garrison Yangdu County, protect the territory and the people, and clear out the bandits. β
Chu Tian had already disbanded all the Taishan thieves of Zang Ba and equipped them with ordinary foot archers.
The existence of Tarzan thieves will make the people's morale and law and order decline.
Chu Tian's reuse of Zang Ba was mainly due to the fact that he did not have much tendency to betray after surrendering to Cao Cao, which was useful. Moreover, Chu Tian was really not afraid of Zang Ba's betrayal.
With Chutian and Zhou Yafu attacking, Zang Ba's betrayal is only a dead end.
In the eyes of other Taishan thieves, Chu Tian's move greatly reassured them. Since Zang Ba can be reused, they should be able to do it too.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Is it enough for me to leave you only 7,000 soldiers and horses? β
"That's enough."
Zhou Yafu's tone was flat.
After Chutian arranged Zhou Yafu in Ju County, he took this class.
He believed in Zhou Yafu, and even thought that it was too much to leave 7,000 people for Zhou Yafu.
Right Beiping County, a Youzhou cavalry assembled, the number of about more than 10,000 cavalry broke the Wuhuan cavalry, hundreds of them rode white horses, holding horn bows, rushed to the Wuhuan cavalry, the opposite Wuhuan cavalry fell down!
"Kill!"
The cavalry commander led by the cavalry will hold a spear in his hand and strive to assassinate more than a dozen Wuhuan cavalrymen, who are unstoppable!
The Wuhuan cavalry was outnumbered, so they began to retreat.
Gongsun Chan led the cavalry to pursue and storm the Wuhuan cavalry!
The Wuhuan cavalry retreated all the way, and when they arrived at a hill, a team of cavalry ambushed in the middle of it came out and attacked the Wuhuan cavalry with Gongsun Zhan, and broke it!
A military general with the Qinglong Glaive rushed to the front, and the big sword will cut off a Wuhuan cavalry company with men and horses!
A fierce general with a snake spear in his hand rushed to kill the Wuhuan cavalry, and the huge force pulled the Wuhuan cavalry off the horse!
Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and at the suggestion of the player's military advisor, applied to the imperial court to come to the imperial court to fight against Wuhuan with Gongsun Zhan, so as to win military exploits and obtain excellent war horses.
There is no shortage of excellent war horses in Youzhou, especially the Wuhuan tribe has many good horses.
snatching the war horses of the Wuhuan tribe is not only faultless, but meritorious.
Liu Bei and Gongsun Zhan joined forces to flank Wu Huan, who withdrew from Youbeiping County and fled to Liaoxi County.
"Xuande, I didn't expect to see you for a long time, you got two fierce generals, and so many ...... Cavalry ......"
Gongsun Zhan was terrified of killing Wu Huan, and when he saw that Liu Bei's two subordinates, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, were invincible to 10,000 people, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous in his eyes.
Liu Bei's cavalry battle may not be as good as Gongsun Zhan, who often fights with the Wuhuan tribe, but Liu Bei has two good brothers.
In "Lord", a powerful military general can play a huge role, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's bonus to the cavalry allowed Liu Bei's army to defeat the Wuhuan cavalry just now.
And Gongsun Chan currently does not have a capable general, and he is jealous of Liu Bei's chances.
Liu Bei was followed by many players, and these Inhuman military advisors gave Liu Bei advice, so that Liu Bei's development momentum was very good, and there were already thousands of cavalry under his command.
This made Gongsun Chan even more jealous.
Liu Bei said respectfully: "It is still Bogui's White Horse Yi who is invincible, and the Wuhuan tribe is fleeing from the wind. β
Gongsun Zhan invited Liu Bei: "Wuhuan is far away, but the Wuhuan tribe must be wiped out." Is Xuande willing to go to Liaoxi with me to encircle and suppress Wuhuan together? β
"This matter ......"
Liu Bei looked at an Inhuman military advisor who he trusted deeply.
The judgment of the Inhuman military advisor on the general trend is accurate, and Liu Bei reuses it.
The Inhuman Warmaster shook his head.
Liu Bei understood: "Xuande doesn't know the roads of western Liaoning, and he is afraid of dragging Bogui down." Now that the threat of Youbeiping County has been lifted, Xuande should lead his troops back to Anxi County to protect the territory and the people. β
"It's a pity. In time, maybe you and I will be able to fight side by side again. β
Gongsun Chan did not force Liu Bei to follow him to pursue the Wuhuan tribe. Horses of courses.
Liu Bei led his troops to leave Youbeiping County.
On the way, Liu Bei asked the Inhuman military advisor, "Why did Sir stop me from pursuing the Wuhuan cavalry?" Wouldn't it be better now that you can eradicate the threat of Wuhuan for the imperial court, and you can make contributions? β
"The lord is wrong in his words. The Wuhuan tribe has not yet declined, and if Gongsun Chan leads the cavalry deep into Liaoxi, he will definitely be surrounded by Wuhuan. With such military exploits in the Lord's office, he can ask the imperial court to move the Minister of Zhongshan. If you can get Changshan Zhao Zilong's help, you can get twice the result with half the effort. His subordinates have asked people to inquire about Zhao Zilong's whereabouts. β
