Chapter 340: Yizhou Victory
Liu Yan took Nanzheng as his governing office, and soon showed skillful and effective governance methods to put things right. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He showed leniency to appease defecting sergeants and officials, so that these experienced people could continue to contribute to the imperial court.
In order to support the huge expenses of the front, Liu Yan promised the families and wealthy families in Hanzhong and northern Guanghan that those who donated counterinsurgency funds or materials would be arranged according to the value of the donations.
This is tantamount to selling officials in disguise, Liu Yan is a pastor in Yizhou, and he definitely has the ability and qualifications to grasp the military and politics. You must know that Yizhou has been in turmoil for several years, many counties have been broken by rebels, court officials have fled to death, and almost all the court officials in the southern counties of Yizhou are vacant, and there are many positions. It is no secret that the Eastern Han Dynasty sold the lord and the official, and the Emperor Ling even dared to sell the position of the third duke, and the upper and lower levels were effective, and the selling of officials seemed natural to some people, and there was something wrong with not selling.
What's more, Liu Yan's sale of officials is a matter of urgency, and he sells it in order to quell the serious Yizhou rebellion, and those families and wealthy families who are willing to buy officials can donate money and materials at this time, and they can also have a good reputation.
In fact, Liu Yan sells officials and also has his own little Jiujiu.
When he took office in Yizhou, he needed to obtain the support of local forces and cultivate cronies in order to control the overall situation and sit firmly on the throne. In the name of supporting the counterinsurgency, appointing some officials and co-opting local forces is the easiest and quickest way. Those wealthy families donated money to buy officials, got appointments, and since then they have stood in the same boat with Liu Yan, with related interests and shared weal and woe, whoever wants to be unfavorable to Liu Yan is equivalent to touching the interests of those wealthy families, and it will be much more difficult to bring down Liu Yan.
In a very short period of time, the state government raised a large amount of money and materials.
It's easy to get things done with a lot of money.
Liu Yan used the money to buy armor, collect grain, recruit young people for training, and provide strong support for the front-line counterinsurgency troops.
The second wave of imperial reinforcements entered Hanzhong.
The military situation was urgent, and the reinforcements took a short rest, and then the troops divided into several routes and went to the front line.
The right lieutenant Chun Yuqiong rushed to Mianzhu to support Zhu Jun; Yuan Shao, the lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy, went to Ba County to support the Zhao Department of Ba County; Only Cao Cao, the lieutenant of the military academy, remained in Hanzhong, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up heavy ordnance before going to the front.
The three lieutenants each led 3,000 soldiers and horses to the battle, with a total strength of less than 10,000 troops, but their arrival became a turning point in the battle situation in Yizhou.
It's not that the New Army in the West Garden is so powerful, but that these people who lead the troops are too extraordinary.
Yuan Shao, the future overlord of Hebei, was recognized for a long time as the most powerful local prince; Cao Cao, the hero of the troubled times, single-handedly pacified most of the super-powerful commanders of China; Chun Yuqiong, who was described as a straw bag who drank and misbehaved in the romance, lost the black nest, causing Yuan Shao's forces to lose the battle of Guandu, but Chun Yuqiong was tied with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in the eight captains of the West Garden, and later under Yuan Shao, he was also a general with Zhang He and Gao Lan, which was by no means as unbearable as in the romance.
One thing all three have in common is that they can all cast Legion Skills.
Prior to this, the imperial court troops in Yizhou were only able to use the legion skills of Zhu Jun, which was also an important reason why Zhu Jun was able to hold back the main force of the rebels with fewer troops. Legion skills have a cooldown time, in terms of force value, Zhu Jun is just a high-level general, the cooldown time of the legion skill is very long, and it is barely okay when fighting a small fight, and the legion skill needs too long to cool down when the big legion fights is enough to be fatal. Moreover, Zhu Jun is the commander of the whole country, and it is not convenient to rush to the front line to fight at any time.
The arrival of Chun Yuqiong solved this problem.
After the right lieutenant Chun Yuqiong arrived in Mianzhu, he obeyed orders under Zhu Jun's tent, gave full play to the true qualities of a general, reversed the passive situation that the officers and soldiers on the Mianzhu battlefield could only take a defensive position, attacked and defended each other with the rebels, and constantly used the regimental skills to take advantage of the rebels.
On the Ba County side, the atmosphere is not so harmonious.
The captain who came to Ba County was Yuan Shao.
The Bajun Theater was originally presided over by the Zhao Ministry, who was the Taishou of Bajun, and could be regarded as a member of the party, but compared with a famous general of the imperial court like Zhu Jun, the weight of the Zhao Department was obviously a big difference.
Although Yuan Shao is not a son-in-law, it is an internal matter of the family, and he still represents the Yuan family outside, not to mention that Yuan Shao has just been appointed as the captain of Xiyuan, obeying the orders of the Son of Heaven, and the young man is ambitious, no matter his background, or the actual official position, he is not lower than the Zhao Department, plus Yuan Shao came all the way to solve the siege, and he has a sense of superiority.
During Yuan Shao's time in Hanzhong, Liu Yan was very polite to him, Liu Yan was a relative of the Han family and a pastor of Yizhou, and his identity and status were not trivial. The state pastor still attaches so much importance to him, Yuan Shao didn't put Zhao in his eyes at all, but Yuan Shao is a concubine, and he knows how to cultivate obscurity, and Xun You's evaluation of him in historical materials is "to win the hearts of the people with generosity", which is not so obvious on the surface, but the pride in the bones of the Yuan family is not less at all.
After Yuan Shao rushed to the southwestern war zone of Ba County, who was the main and who was the auxiliary between him and Zhao was a big question that had to be mentioned.
But before setting off from Hanzhong, Liu Yan did not give a clear statement.
Liu Yan had just arrived in Yizhou, and was busy providing logistical support for Zhu Jun, but he actually had jurisdiction over only a few counties in Hanzhong and northern Guanghan. After the return of Zhao, Zhao was busy reorganizing the army and commanding the troops in the southern part of Ba County, and he had no time to go to Hanzhong to report to the new governor Liu Yan, but he just sent someone to Hanzhong to get in touch with Liu Yan. Zhao Bu withstood part of the rebel attack in Ba County, and the results were remarkable, Liu Yan had no reason to take him out, so he let Zhao Bu, who was familiar with the place, make persistent efforts and continue to be fully responsible for the Ba County Theater.
Yuan Shao was born noble, there is nothing to say, but now it is a counterinsurgency, and no one on the battlefield cares about his origin; In terms of official positions, it is difficult to say who is the eldest of the county guards or the lieutenants of the central government; In terms of ability, it is not known how strong Yuan Shao's ability is for the time being, but Zhao Bu has really stabilized the situation in Ba County, plus Zhao Bu is originally a Ba County Taishou, he has a lot of prestige in the county, and he has a better understanding of the local terrain and people's feelings.
After weighing, Liu Yan preferred Zhao to lead the Bajun battlefield.
Yuan Shao's magnanimity on the surface also made Liu Yan rebel, thinking that he would not mind the problem of dominance so much. However, after all, Yuan Shao is from the Yuan family, Liu Yan is not good at saying clearly, "You go to Bajun to listen to the command of the Zhao Department", Liu Yan, who has rich experience in politics, thought that Yuan Shao, who was also from a famous family, would be able to understand this meaning, and the children sent by the Gaomen family should be very familiar with the unspoken rules, and many words do not have to be said clearly.
Yuan Shao did understand what Liu Yan meant.
But Liu Yan still missed one point, that is, the young Yuan Shao has a very strong desire to make contributions.
Yuan Shao is a concubine!
Yuan Shao is a concubine!
Yuan Shao is a concubine!
Say the important thing three times.
The so-called concubine refers to the child born to the concubine under the feudal patriarchal system, and the child of the main wife is the concubine. There is a difference in the status of the sister-in-law and the concubine in the family.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are both sons of Yuan Feng, but Yuan Shu's mother is Yuan Feng's wife, and Yuan Shao's mother is a maidservant, so Yuan Shu is the orthodox heir of the Yuan family. Yuan Shao was not valued in the family in his early years, and now he finally became the captain of Xiyuan, and got the opportunity to lead his troops to the expedition, so he naturally wanted to show himself, establish his merits, glorify the lintel, and improve his status in the family.
Obey the orders of others, no matter how great the credit is, it must be discounted!
This is something that Yuan Shao is unwilling to accept.
If Yuan Shao went to Mianzhu, Zhu Jun's prestige was enough to suppress him, but Zhao Bu did not have this ability.
Therefore, although he knew Liu Yan's intentions, after Yuan Shao arrived in the war zone, he still pretended to be confused.
At the first military meeting he attended in the war zone, everyone discussed the next battle strategy.
The Zhao troops advocated stabilizing the defense line first, and then fighting the rebels after Cao Cao's troops carried heavy ordnance. Yuan Ru held a different opinion, pointing out that the rebels in the Ba County Theater were relatively weak, and they should actively attack, strive to seize the initiative in the Ba County battlefield, and respond to the main battlefield in Mianzhu. Neither of the two could convince anyone, so Yuan Shao found an excuse to leave the Zhao battalion, and led the people of the headquarters to find a county seat to station.
Zhao was helpless about this.
Because of this, although the strength of the officers and rebels in the Ba County Theater was closer, not much progress was made.
When Liu Yan learned that Yuan Shao did not obey Zhao's orders, he was extremely depressed, angry that Yuan Shao was "ignorant", and regretted that he did not make his words clear. But it had come to this point, and he had no better way, so he had to pretend that he didn't see it.
At this time, Liu Yan got an unexpected surprise.
Zhang Xiu, the leader of Wudou Midao, quietly sent someone to contact the state pastor's office, saying that Wudou Midao was willing to return to the imperial court.
The Wudou Midao rebellion failed, Zhang Xiu and a large number of backbone of the sect hid in Hanzhong County, secretly continued to develop believers, and after several years of recuperation, Wudou Midao recovered its vitality. The southern part of Yizhou rebelled, and Zhang Xiu intended to raise troops again in Hanzhong, but Hanzhong was next to the land of Sanfu, and once the matter was raised, it was easy to recruit the central army of Si Li, Zhang Xiu did not think that the Taoists could resist, and he had been hesitant.
When Ma Xiang raised troops, Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and sent his henchmen to contact believers from all over the world in Hanzhong to prepare for an incident.
However, Ma Xiang's rebellion led to the Yizhou rebellion being upgraded to a regional camp mission, and the famous general Zhu Jun entered Yizhou to quell the rebellion. Immediately afterwards, Liu Yan took office in Nanzheng, and his control over Hanzhong was strengthened day by day, which made Zhang Xiu less and less confident, and the three lieutenants of Xiyuan led his troops into Yizhou, which made Zhang Xiu feel desperate about whether the uprising could succeed.
How bleak the future is.
A young Taoist advised Zhang Xiu: "In order to quell the rebellion, Liu Yan took in the rebels and deserted soldiers, and it is the right time to take refuge at this time!" ”
Zhang Xiu was deeply convinced by his words, so he asked this young man named Zhang Lu to contact the state capital.
Liu Yan is worried about the lack of counterinsurgency forces, and Wudou Midao is willing to surrender, which can not only support the front line, but also solve a hidden danger, so he naturally can't ask for it.
The two sides reached an agreement, and Zhang Xiu called on the Taoists to participate in quelling the rebellion, and in return, Liu Yan made him the Taishou of Hanzhong.
Wudoumi believers marched to the Mianzhu battlefield, and Zhu Jun's troops were replenished.
Before you know it, the time in the game is September 188.
The Xiongnu Nandan Yu Fuluo, and the Baibo Yellow Turban jointly attacked Hedong.
Because the rebellion in Liangzhou and Yizhou was still in turmoil, the imperial court sent a lot of troops, and there was something going on in Hedong, and the troops that could be mobilized were very limited. The stormy Eastern Han Dynasty court once again felt the chill to the bone.
At this time, the Yizhou counterinsurgency army achieved a great victory, bringing some comfort to the Han family.
When the battlefields of Mianzhu and Ba County were evenly matched, an officer and army unit launched a surprise attack. They infiltrated Jiangyang County from the mountainous area in the western part of Ba County, hid their tracks, traveled more than 200 miles to the south, and then turned westward, and suddenly appeared in the territory of Qianwei County. Qianwei is located in the south of Shu County and Guanghan, in the rear of the battlefield, and the grain and grass of the rebels are piled up in Wuyang County, which is in Qianwei.
Regardless of the fatigue of the long journey, the officer army immediately launched an attack on the county seat of Wuyang.
After half a day of fierce fighting, Wuyang City was conquered, and the grain and grass in the city were burned.
The news reached the Mianzhu front, and the rebels were in chaos.
There are more than 100,000 rebels assembled in Mianzhu, and the amount of grain and grass consumed every day is not a small amount, all of which are supported by the mobilization of grain and grass from Wuyang County, Wuyang was breached, and the grain in the army was only enough for three days, and the rebels were suddenly in chaos, and had to retreat with the whole army.
However, if you want to leave at this time, it is no longer that the rebels can pat their butts and go on the road after discussing it themselves, so they have to ask Zhu Jun first if he agrees.
Zhu Jun was overjoyed when he received the battle report from the surprise attack officer and army and learned that the rebel granary had been burned, and he had long been ready to beat the water dogs. As soon as the rebels retreated, the officers and troops on the Mianzhu battlefield launched a full-front onslaught, quickly crushing the broken rear troops who were bluffing behind, and launched a pursuit.
The rebels had no food and did not dare to fight for a long time, coupled with the fact that Ma Xiang and the southern rebels were wary of each other, neither of them dared to stop and resist the pursuit of the official army, and became a victim of the other party's escape. The officers and soldiers pursued and killed all the way, and did not encounter organized resistance, but continued to win military merits.
Most of the rebels in the south are people in the mountains, who grew up in the mountains, climbing the slopes, walking on the ground, and walking like flying.
Most of Ma Xiang's subordinates were Yibei Han people, and they didn't run as fast as the people, so they had to become cannon fodder in a tragic way.
Zhu Jun has always been tough on the rebels, he was the one who refused to surrender to the Nanyang Yellow Turbans in the past, and the Yizhou rebels were unlucky to meet him. Chased all the way, Ma Xiang's rebels were killed in fear, Ma Xiang knew that Qianwei had an official army, did not dare to go to Qianwei, when he ran to the territory of Shu County, he had been beheaded by Zhu Jun more than 20,000 levels, many rebels left the army to hide in the mountains, and there were only more than 10,000 people left with Ma Xiang.
fled to Shu County, and before Ma Xiang could catch his breath, he was ambushed.
The official army that sneaked hundreds of miles to attack Wuyang County, burned the rebels' grain and grass, and then infiltrated the border between Shu County and Guanghan to set up an ambush, just stopping Ma Xiang, a big fish.
3,000 officers and soldiers waited for work, more than 10,000 rebels were exhausted, and there were pursuers behind them, and they had no intention of fighting, Ma Xiang died in the chaos, and the rest of the rebels surrendered.
The rebellion of the horse phase is pacified!
The one who launched that surprise attack was Cao Cao, the military captain who was supposed to stay in Hanzhong.
