232. Rebuild the imperial court
Hexi Xianbei is located between the West Sea and Kuqiang. With Kuqiang being taken down by me, the current situation of Hexi Xianbei is similar to that of Kuqiang at the beginning, like fat in my mouth. And Kuqiang was still the Shuofang Prefecture of the Xiongnu in the north, and now Xianbei in Hexi is completely surrounded by me on three sides, and only the north is the Xiongnu.
Xianbei was originally in the east of the Xiongnu, a part of the Xianbei in Hexi, and through its own strong attack, it finally passed through the territory of the Xiongnu and occupied the fertile land of Xianbei in Hexi. The reason why this land is said to be fertile is because the small area in the south was once the territory of Kuqiang. And this land was previously obtained from the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu had previously obtained it from the Han Dynasty.
It is conducive to the development of agriculture, and the Han Dynasty once operated for a long time, leaving behind several prosperous cities. After several changes of hands, these cities have become the foundation of Hexi Xianbei. Coupled with the agricultural operations on this site, it is enough to support the entire Hexi Xianbei.
In the north of Xianbei in Hexi, there is a large grassland, with agriculture and animal husbandry, which is really a treasure land. But now Hexi Xianbei is not only surrounded by me on three sides, but also the Xiongnu in the north. Unlike Kuqiang and the Xiongnu, the relationship between Hexi Xianbei and the Xiongnu has always been very tense. After all, there is not an inch of Xianbei's territory in Hexi that has nothing to do with the Xiongnu. Therefore, all along, Hexi Xianbei has been attacked from all sides. And now, with the encirclement of our army on three sides, it is already equivalent to catching a turtle in an urn.
This time, I brought out a force of the commander's department, and the two of the commanders were the Xiongnu Iron Cavalry and the Kuqiang Iron Cavalry. In addition, Song Xiao went out of the West Sea, Zuochang went out of Wuwei, although the two armies each had only two troops of the Ya Shuai, but all of them were Xiliang Iron Cavalry. The three-way army is mighty, and Hexi Xianbei has already received the news. And with the news arrived, my messenger. Because I didn't know the situation in Xianbei in Hexi, I didn't dare to send Ma Liang to take risks, but chose Qin Mi, who was specially selected, to be an envoy.
In the end, things on Hexi Xianbei's side were in danger, and under the pressure of my army, Hexi Xianbei accepted the reality and decided to surrender to me. However, except for sending Zuo Chang and Song Xiao to divide and rule Hexi Xianbei, the other managers were still locals. Of course, in terms of troops, I also carry out the same adjustment. And Hexi Xianbei also provided me with two military horses from the Commandery's Headquarters, plus two Commander's Departments of the Volunteers.
So far, with six counties in the state and four counties in Liangzhou, plus Kuqiang and Hexi Xianbei, this entire territory has reached two of the ten counties, as if there is already a state territory. At the suggestion of Liang Hu, Zuo Chang, and Song Xiao, I established the [Yushan General's Mansion] in Wuwei. Claiming to be [General Hayama], he led the history of Liangzhou and Bingzhou. When the news reached Jingzhou, Xu Xuan, the assassin, immediately expressed his willingness to accept the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion. At the same time, Xu Xuan also suggested appointing Liu Ba as the assassin of Yizhou, which was also subordinate to the General's Mansion.
Next, Jizhou Assassin Han Fu, Yuzhou Assassin Wang Yun, Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai, Yangzhou Assassin Chen Wen, Youzhou Assassin Guo Xun, Jiaozhou Assassin Jia Cong, Xuzhou Assassin Shi Tao Qian, Qingzhou Assassin Jiao He, also successively announced that they would accept the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion. This also means that after the imperial court was destroyed, the imperial court camp finally had a unified jurisdiction for the first time.
The so-called Yushan General's Mansion is actually a temporary court of the Han Dynasty. Because Luoyang fell, the imperial court was dealt with, but the imperial court camp still belonged to the Han Dynasty. The General's Mansion is now actually exercising the duties of the imperial court. Because the emperor is still "imprisoned", but it still exists, this general's mansion still respects the emperor, and I, [General Hayama], am actually acting under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. After the emperor teacher is "released", the jurisdiction will be taken back by the emperor teacher.
It can be said that if the camp I really serve is the imperial court, now is a very good opportunity. When the time comes, with the Xiongnu Iron Cavalry, Xianbei Iron Cavalry, Kuqiang Iron Cavalry and Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, the possibility of success is still very high. Of course, now that the camp I serve is the Yellow Turban, I can only work but not contribute.
At five o'clock, the war in Liangzhou came to an end. The war is still not over yet, but the situation in Liangzhou has settled. In a short period of time, Liangzhou will not change much.
As usual, it is a reward. My rank in the imperial court camp has also been promoted to the highest, so this time the reward has also been replaced by an increase in the base of the establishment, the original four-fold establishment has been expanded to five times, and in Jingzhou, it is ten-fold. The base of the Yellow Turban faction was expanded to twelve, for a total of thirty-six. As usual, the rewards of the two fourth-level A were not missed. As for the two independent territory cards, I sent troops to Persia and Tianzhu to establish them separately. At this time, I found that the three territories of Danzhou, Xiongnu, and Xianbei could already be established. So all three manors were established, and by the way, the upgrade task was completed and promoted to the first level. At the same time, the peacock point, the dark crossing point and the dangguan point were upgraded to the second level point respectively.
This time, the reward of the Yellow Turban camp, as well as Zhang Jiao's confirmation of the appointment of my [Liangzhou Daoist]. This also means that the Yellow Turban territory in the entire Liangzhou has actually officially become my territory now. This includes not only the three counties of Longxi, Tianshui and Anding, but also Jincheng and Xiping occupied by Bianzhang and Han Sui, as well as Dunhuang and Jiuquan occupied by the Xiqiang army.
Line. After the whole family made dinner and ate, they hurried out into the street to eat, and when they came back, they went online at half past seven.
Because of the establishment of the Hayama General's Mansion, today's plot has also changed. Instead of continuing the Yellow Turban Rebellion step by step, it became [Rebuilding the Imperial Court]. In this scenario, I'll decide on the new court during the preparation period, and then the players will go out to fight. Each player will fight independently according to their own strength, and choose NPC targets from the opposing faction to attack. After the war, Imperial Court players will be awarded official positions based on military merits, and Yellow Turban players will also be appointed to the corresponding positions in the territory that the Yellow Turban faction already controls.
As a result, the highlight of this plot has become the determination of matters related to the new imperial court. The first step was to determine the nature of the imperial court. The new court had three options: option one, honor Emperor Ling; Option 2, the new emperor; Option three, fuzzy, no one respects.
Of course, I chose to continue to honor the Spirit Emperor. First of all, Emperor Ling is my emperor teacher and Zhang Jiao's junior brother, who do I not respect him? If a new emperor is elected, not to mention that my interests will be impacted, it will also bring variables to the imperial court. If it is ambiguous, it will also leave hidden dangers, which is actually to give up the initiative to choose the emperor, and others will help me choose the drop.
As a matter of course, choose to honor the Spirit Emperor, and then move on to the second option. Choose a temporary capital. This option is very rich, as long as it is any city above the county level within the current control of the imperial court, you can choose it. After thinking about it, I chose Xiangyang. Because Jingzhou is my birthplace, and the construction of Xiangyang is led by me. More crucially, my envoy's office is in Xiangyang. After my long-term operation in Xiangyang City, I am basically my own people now. This will help me to control the situation in the court.
Then go to the third option and choose your official position. There are also three options: option one, continue to maintain the title of General Hayama; Option two, the general; Option three, Prime Minister. I chose the Great General. Because the title of General Hayama is relatively amateurish, there is no legal control over the imperial court. And the prime minister is not available in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, and the general is more in line with the Eastern Han Dynasty tradition. It's just that the previous generals were basically held by relatives, but the meaning of this position has always been there, and it can be accepted by everyone.
This is followed by the fourth option, the appointment of an officer. Because I respect Emperor Ling, there is no need to change the official position of the court, and I can just follow Emperor Ling's policy. The first is the appointment of the Three Princes. Sikong I gave Liu Ba, Situ Wang Yun, and Taiwei Xu Xuan. All official positions below the sixth secretary are sold to officials.
You must know that the treasury of the emperor's teacher has been used as the treasury of the yellow scarf, and now the general's mansion is in urgent need of silver, or the emperor's teacher's solution is the most realistic. Anyway, this is also the established national policy of the emperor's teacher, and he is not afraid of anyone's opposition. If it causes public resentment, it is better, as long as there is a rebellion, you can send yellow turbans to cut off dissidents.
At this point, the General's Mansion is fully formed. The new imperial court was also put into operation. Now it's time to start fighting. This time you don't need to lead other players into battle, you just need to choose your own attack direction. And in this regard, on the side of the Yellow Turban camp, I already have two attack directions, Yongzhou and Beiping, so I don't need to attack again.
On the side of the imperial court camp, I can't fight the yellow scarf, so I can only take the surrounding neighbors to fight. At present, my neighbors are as follows: Xiongnu, Loulan, Beigong Boyu, Xiqiang, and Nanban. In this regard, my plan is to attack in all five directions. Since God has given me this opportunity, of course I have to make good use of it.
And to achieve this, it is necessary to redeploy troops. Now I have a total of six Volunteers, three of my own staff. Among them, the Xiongnu Iron Cavalry, the Xianbei Iron Cavalry and the Kuqiang Iron Cavalry each have a primitive commander's department, which exceeds my own establishment of two commanders' departments.
The military horses obtained through the military horse farm and the four counties of Shuofang, Shangjun, Kuqiang and Hexi Xianbei, and the cavalry of the two commanders' divisions, which is equivalent to my own establishment of three tooth commanders. The rest are the Seven Star Soldiers and Gan Jing Soldiers. What's more, after I became a general, there were also cavalry units.
