Chapter Forty-Eight: Encirclement and Suppression by Famous Ministers
After taking Yangzhou and Guangling County, Daqian did not continue to advance vigorously. This was decided by Zhang Hao, Tian Feng, Gu Yong and others after discussion.
First of all, because of the matter of spring ploughing, spring ploughing cannot be delayed, and in a short period of time to take the entire territory of Yangzhou, Zhang Hao needs time to stabilize his rule.
The Qianlu has been promulgated, but it will take time to implement it, and it is necessary for people to truly see the benefits of the Qianlu, so that the people can be completely tied to the chariot of the Qian, and there are also wealthy families in the state who need to be dealt with.
Secondly, Zhang Hao chose not to move, also because of the problem of troops. Now the big cadres seem to be looking at each other, but the number is still too small. Although it is almost invincible because of the technology of the time, the territory is large, and before internal stability, garrisons are needed in various places to maintain stability.
Therefore, before the training of recruits is completed, it is a little impractical for the army to be dispatched, and it is likely to cause some chaos, which Zhang Hao does not want to see.
Anyway, the time advantage is on Zhang Hao's side, and he is not afraid of delaying some time.
And there is another reason, Zhang Hao did not carefully tell Tian Feng Xi Zhicai and others. That's the question of the plot or the trajectory of history.
This year is a turning point in the Han Dynasty, in history, Emperor Liu Hong died this year, and after the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, Dong Feifei entered Beijing. Various forces and big names seem to appear and end.
It can be said that this year's form has been of great help to the development of the Great Cadres, at least under such circumstances, the Han Dynasty has not much energy to encircle and suppress the Great Cadres. This is an advantage, and at the same time, Zhang Hao wondered if he could take advantage of such a general trend.
In fact, there have been some mistakes in today's historical trajectory, not to mention Zhang Hao and Daqian, let's just say that it is now May, and Liu Hong at this time in history has already hung up. But now that Liu Hong is still alive, although the information from Xizuo shows that his physical condition is very bad in all aspects, Liu Hong just holds on and has no breath. I just don't know if this has something to do with Zhang Hao and Daqian.
In addition to letting Xizuo pay attention to the form of Luoyang City, Zhang Hao did not change the established development route because of this, and he already had some experience in development. Know how to use it to your advantage.
For example, the 'Rural Film Team' can be carried forward, and even a special show can be opened specifically for scholars in various places. It is believed that through such means, it will be of great help to future attacks. Technology that is ahead of the times always has the effect of being ahead of the times.
Zhang Hao had no choice but to add the video footage recorded in the war to the promotional video.
In this way, after several months of conquest, Yangzhou suddenly calmed down, and under the guidance of the big cadres and officials, Zhang Hao specially collected information on agricultural technology from modern times, as well as new agricultural tools and high-yield varieties were distributed.
The Reclamation Corps, composed of old and weak soldiers and prisoners, was also formally established, and began to develop the idle land in Yangzhou on a large scale. In addition, the reorganization of prisoners and recruits, the measurement of the land of each county, the punishment of lawlessness, and the restriction of the noble family.
For a time, all kinds of actions across the state were carried out in an orderly and enthusiastic manner, full of vitality.
Daqian's unexpected quietness made many people breathe a sigh of relief. Although far-sighted people know that Da Qian's behavior is clearly not the kind of thief in the past, this kind of movement shows that the other party wants a lot. But it can be seen that there is no way.
It seems that inspired by the great cadres, the revival of the Yellow Turbans in the Central Plains has been gradually suppressed, but at this time, these Yellow Turban Army is like a chicken blood, which makes the officials everywhere quite embarrassed. I can only ask the court for help again and again.
But the imperial court simply doesn't have the energy to care about these things at this time, let alone them. Even if the previous Xuzhou assassin Shi Taoqian's request for help was put on hold for the time being, the princes of the imperial court had more important things to deal with, that is, the most important change of throne for the feudal dynasty.
It seems that Liu Hong has been holding on to see the results of Chen Wen's battle, maybe he hopes to get good news so that he can die with peace of mind. Of course, this is all speculation, Liu Hong has experienced too many rebellions in his short life, and his heart should have been exercised a long time ago.
In short, after getting the bad news that Chen Wen's army was exhausted, struggling for a few days, and reluctantly explaining the aftermath, this Han emperor, who played quite unrestrainedly, hung up.
Before closing his eyes, in addition to explaining the affairs of the two princes, Liu Hong also deliberately responded to Daqian. The relocation of Hanoi Taishou Zhu Yi as the pastor of Yuzhou, and the relocation of Shangshu Lu Zhi as the pastor of Jingzhou, this is obviously in the hope that these two famous ministers with both civil and military skills will exterminate the great cadres.
After Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi received their appointments, they could not take office immediately. They were required to attend the funeral of Liu Hong's death, as well as the ceremony of the new emperor's accession to the throne.
Liu Hong's death means that the Han Dynasty is about to enter turmoil.
Zhang Hao wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to do something to take advantage of it, but he lacked wisdom and couldn't think of a suitable way at all.
On the one hand, Zhang Hao does not have much contact with Luoyang City, except for some intelligence officers, he still has contact with Zhang Rang, but he doesn't dare to say how much he can influence Zhang Rang. And how much Zhang Rang can influence the ten permanent servants is another matter. So, it's hard to do anything.
On the other hand, if you want to take advantage of the advantage, what is the benefit? Things have gone the way history has taken place, and it has brought great opportunities for his development. Even if there is some butterfly effect, it doesn't matter.
I thought about fishing in troubled waters, changing the trajectory of history a little bigger, or killing a few crucial characters to increase the energy of time and space. So the question goes back again, how can he do this? And it won't spoil the great form of today?!
After thinking about it, Zhang Hao thought about it too much, and finally gave up this behavior of wasting brain cells, and prepared to act when the time came, anyway, even if he didn't do anything, there would be nothing to lose.
Next, under Zhang Hao's attention, history is still moving forward according to the established pace, the emperor's eldest son Liu Bian ascended the throne, Empress He became the Empress Dowager He to preside over the government, and the general He Jin was in power. As a result, the eunuchs completely lost their military superiority.
Something that is somewhat related to Zhang Hao is that Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun, two famous ministers, have finally begun to take up their posts, and they will stand on the front line of Zhang Hao and Daqian. The general He Jin was very polite to these two famous ministers, and at the same time he was also very supportive of their counterinsurgency actions, and squeezed out some money, food and soldiers to give to them.
Liyang Thorn Mansion, above the attic. Zhang Hao held his forehead on the soft couch, looking speechless.
On both sides of him, Xiaozhu Xiaocha, and two other pearls and jade dew seemed to be little beauties hanging their heads and snickering.
In the side seat, the elegant and beautiful Cai Wenji put her hands on the piano, and looked at the old man on the side with some tears and smiles in her always clear and quiet eyes.
This old man has a long robe and big sleeves, and he is elegant and dignified, and he is Cai Wenji's father, Cai Yong. At this time, the great writer and musician were holding his long beard in his hands, and he was walking around the attic with a sad face, sighing from time to time,
"Hey, what kind of face do you want me to see my old friend!"
Here it is again, Zhang Hao really wants to sigh. wipe, from half an hour ago, Cai Yong ran to the attic, interrupted Zhang Hao to listen to Cai Wenji playing the piano and talking about love, asked him about nothing, and always sighed like this for a long time. It annoys Zhang Hao, but he can't deal with him.
Whoever let Zhang Hao play his daughter's idea, and even asked Huang Zhong to ask for marriage on behalf of Zhang Hao. For the future father-in-law, Zhang Hao can't play the prestige of the king. It is estimated that Cai Yong also knows this, so he behaves like this, this old man has never been so unparticular before.
This one keeps going. Zhang Hao slandered in his heart.
In fact, this matter is not complicated, it is because of Liu Hong's deathbed arrangement. Lu Zhi and Zhu Yike are both Cai Yong's friends.
Now because Zhang Hao has proposed to Cai Yan, Cai Yong has begun to work for Daqian. So at this time, he felt uncomfortable when he thought that he was already hostile to his old friend. Well, this Zhang Hao can be understood.
But what can Zhang Hao do about this? You can't surrender directly, and it's impossible for Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun to surrender directly.
He could only try his best to save Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun in the subsequent war.
Cai Yong also understands this, but he can't turn this tendon. After all, the war is dangerous, and who can be sure what the future holds.
Through the understanding of the past few months, Cai Yong is well aware of the potential of Daqian, and knows that the final victory will definitely belong to this mysterious future son-in-law.
It is estimated that at this time, Zhang Hao's performance is just to get Zhang Hao's promise, or to find a way to meet a few of their old friends without embarrassment.
It is more likely that Cai Yong felt aggrieved and uncomfortable, so he asked the 'culprit' Zhang Hao to vent and make him uncomfortable.
"Uncle Cai, you don't think it's as good as this. The Yellow River has long since thawed, and I directly sent sailors through the Yellow River to attack the land of the Three Rivers. After realizing the strength of the Jing Navy, it is estimated that the imperial court is reluctant to leave Luoyang. At that time, maybe Lu Shangshu and Zhu Taishou will stay in the capital. ”
Zhang Hao said weakly,
Lu Zhi and Zhu Yi didn't take a few soldiers from Luoyang at all. They are all asked to collect on the spot, and if the Jing Navy goes north, it will only make the imperial court urge them to speed up their actions. Moreover, the kind of artillery of the Jing Navy can easily injure civilians. Cai Yong said without thinking about it,
"Daddy!" Cai Yan couldn't listen to it at this time, Zhang Hao had already proposed a lot of methods, in short, he would ensure the safety of Lu Zhi and Zhu Yi as much as possible, and Zhang Hao couldn't do it if he asked for too much. Now he is accommodating enough to Cai Yong.
"Hey, I know I'm a little bit tough. It's just that these two old friends contributed too much to my affairs back then, and if it weren't for them, maybe I wouldn't have been able to live in such a safe seclusion in the land of Wuhui. That's why I'm a little restless at this time, but thank you for your understanding. ”
Cai Yong sighed, saluted Zhang Hao, said no more, and turned around to leave directly.
Zhang Hao spread his hands, the atmosphere was originally very good, but it was over for Cai Yong to make such a fuss. But in the face of Cai Yan's guilty gaze, what else could he say......
