Chapter 31: Yuyang Counterinsurgency (Part II)
That Zhang Ju is a native of Yuyang County, and the official is Taishou of Taishan County, Yanzhou. Zhang Chun is Zhang Ju's brother of the same clan, and the official is the minister of Zhongshan in Jizhou.
Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, Bian Zhang, together with Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, rebelled in Liangzhou, and the imperial court sent Sikong Zhang Wen to quell the rebellion. At that time, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun had achieved good results in the local Keju League, so the two of them recommended themselves and prepared to follow Zhang Wen to Liangzhou to make a merit, but Zhang Wen refused.
The two couldn't stand the blow, and returned to their hometown angrily to prepare for an incident, but at this time, Gongsun Chan had already gained a firm foothold in Youzhou, and Yuyang County, where the two were located, was within Gongsun Zhan's sphere of influence, so these two people also knew that the success rate of the uprising was not large.
In distress, the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, and Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun colluded with the Yellow Turban, and when the Yellow Turban infiltrated Yuyang County, the two of them could take advantage of the situation.
Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhan's control over his sphere of influence was too tight, and when it took several months for the Yellow Turban to finally infiltrate from the western part of Youzhou (Liu Yu's sphere of influence) to the eastern part (Gongsun Zhan's sphere of influence), Zhang Jiao actually received a bento.
It's okay now, I just saw Zhang Ju Zhang Chun, who wanted to raise the anti-flag, and finally hugged the thigh and said no, no, now it's not going to retreat, and I can only go down hard, and I will be the emperor.
β¦β¦
Yuyang "Imperial Palace", that is, the original Taishou Mansion.
"If there is something to report, there is nothing to retreat." This was supposed to be the work of the eunuchs, but because there were no eunuchs under Zhang Ju's hands, the "general" Zhang Chunmian had to do it for him.
And these "courtiers" in front of Zhang Ju are not real officials, because the cadres of the original Taishou Mansion have been imprisoned by Zhang Ju. These kneeling below, except for a small number of local tycoons in Yuyang, who were trapped by the situation and had to meet Zhang Ju, the rest were basically ordinary people who were caught by Zhang Ju to enrich the faΓ§ade.
The "court" composed of these people, where will there be any retribution, Zhang Chun has long been accustomed to this kind of scene, so when he saw the silence below, he shouted again: "Retreat~Dynasty~!" β
When these people withdrew from the "palace", Zhang Chun pulled a chair and sat down, and said to Zhang Ju: "Big brother, can we do this?" β
Zhang Ju said helplessly: "It's all the opposite, what if it can't be done, who knows that Zhang Jiao suddenly died of illness like this, it's really ......"
"Big brother, if the imperial court also sends a team to come, it won't be enough for the two of us plus the gang just now."
"Hmm...... So, you go to our old gang and see if anyone is willing to come over and help. I went to Karasuma and it was almost the day when they came to play. The enemy of the so-called enemy is our friend, and they should send someone to help us. β
"That's a way to do it."
"Well, you go and go back quickly, I heard that an edict has been issued within the imperial court."
"Okay, then I'll leave in a while, and within ten days, I'll be back whether it succeeds or not."
"Go ahead."
β¦β¦
Youzhou Prefecture, Fanyang County.
"Report to your Excellency! Zhang Hao, Zhang Fei, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, the four of them asked to meet! β
"Let them in!"
"Yes!"
Waiting for Zhang Hao and the four of them to enter, Liu Yu sat on the main seat and asked.
"Who...... Is it Zhang Hao? β
Zhang Hao took a step forward and replied, "Back to my lord, the grass people are Zhang Hao." β
"Hmm...... Not bad, not bad. Liu Yu looked up and down and nodded.
After running around before, as well as the training in the past month or so, Zhang Hao is no longer the little white face that he has just crossed over, not only the edges and corners of his face are highlighted, but his physique is also a lot burly. In short, in Liu Yu's opinion, Zhang Hao's image is still more in line with his expectations.
"Who...... Is it Liu Bei? Liu Yu asked again.
Liu Bei was slightly displeased at this time because Liu Yu asked Zhang Hao first, and praised him, and when he heard Liu Yu's question, he reacted for half a beat before replying: "Liu Bei, a grass farmer, has seen Lord Zhou Mu." β
"Oh...... You are Liu Bei. β
When Liu Yu investigated the four of them before, he learned that Liu Bei was a relative of the Han family like himself. However, there are also differences between the clans of the Han family, some of them are really clansmen who have been passed down from generation to generation, Liu Yu and Liu Yan, including the current Jingzhou Thorn History Liu Biao. And some people are far away, and now they are almost like ordinary people, Liu Bei is the latter.
When there were only three people in the original book, Liu Yu was quite close to Liu Bei's identity. But now with Zhang Hao's jewel in front of him, Liu Yu is a little disgusted with Liu Bei's identity. In addition, Liu Yu also learned that Liu Bei was the same junior disciple of his sworn enemy Gongsun Zhan, so he opened his mouth to ask to see who this person was.
As a result, after seeing Liu Bei's gloomy face and the "rudeness" that reacted too slowly, Liu Bei's impression in Liu Yu's heart couldn't be worse.
It's just that above the lobby, Liu Yu couldn't say anything in front of so many people, so he just glanced at Liu Bei coldly and stopped paying attention to him, and turned to Zhang Hao.
"The imperial court issued an edict ordering me to gather people to go to Yuyang to pacify Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellious party. Originally, I was short of manpower, but fortunately Liu Yan recommended you and the other four, and I also heard about the feats of you and others in Daxing and Guangzong, and now I intend to order you and others to go to Yuyang to quell the rebellion, I don't know what to do? β
When Liu Yan and Zhang Hao talked about this matter a few days ago, Zhang Hao originally wanted to refuse, but later remembered that there was indeed such a thing in the original book, and Liu Bei was also played by Liu Yu as the county commander of Pingyuan because of his meritorious service in counterinsurgency. It's just that this matter was mentioned in the original book, and Zhang Hao never remembered it.
Since it is still according to the development of history, Zhang Hao naturally took Liu Guan and Zhang to fish for this is their merit, so in the face of Liu Yu's questioning, Zhang Hao replied: "Zhang Hao, a grass man, obeys the orders of the adults. β
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, as well as Liu Bei, who was obviously reluctant, also replied with Zhang Hao: "Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei of the grass people are from the orders of the adults. β
Liu Yu was overjoyed when he saw this: "Okay, good!" You can go to Gongsun Chan of Beiping County first, although there are many disagreements between me and him, but first, the counterinsurgency is a big matter, and the second is ......" Liu Yu paused, glanced at Liu Bei with displeased eyes, and continued: "Second, this Liu Bei is Gongsun Zhan's junior brother, and he will not embarrass you and others if he thinks about it." A few of you can go and rest for one night first, take me to give Gongsun Zhan a letter of resignation, and then order Dongcao Peng Wei You to go with you, you can be safe. β
