Chapter 58 Ideal Home, White Horse Righteousness
Chen Yong now finally has the appointment of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, and the official position of Captain is the right position. Zhao Hai and Chen Yong have always had correspondence, and since Chen Yong was named the general of the expedition to the north, some merchants in Changshan Kingdom wanted to come to Yuyang to do business. Zhao Hai informed Chen Yong in the letter, and Chen Yong naturally would not refuse. Later, Fang Shan's richest man Fang Yi brought people to Yuyang and started a salt and iron smelting business. With Chen Yong's relationship, he is naturally mixed in Yuyang.
Since then, any promotion of Chen Yong will be well known by the people of Changshan, and all this is naturally the credit of Fang Million. That house has made millions of money, of course, he will try his best to help Chen Yong, so the welfare of Chen Yong's soldiers is getting better and better. However, the Tuntian system has been retained, and due to the increasing fame of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, the displaced people from the surrounding states have come to Youzhou one after another, and Jicheng is naturally their first choice.
However, it is impossible for all the displaced people to come to Jicheng, and many of them also settle in other parts of Youzhou. The population in this Youzhou is increasing, and the cultivated land is naturally increasing. Liu Yu supports the displaced people to open up the wasteland, and there are preferential tax reduction and exemption policies for those who open up the wasteland. Coupled with the promotion of the tuntian system, Liu Yu's own soldiers all participated. It's just that Gongsun Chan scoffed at this, he always thought that it was natural for a soldier to take food and eat money, and farming should be the business of the people.
Chen Yong's Miyun Island also has a lot of displaced people, and the land here is fertile and more suitable for farming. In addition, Chen Yong also has management and preferential policies for displaced people, and the natural construction of Miyun Island is getting better and better. There are more and more residents on the island, and it has become the norm for young women of school age to choose to become soldiers, and more and more of Chen Yong's soldiers have families.
But they are all grateful people, and they have not forgotten everyone because they have a small family after marriage. Because no matter who the soldiers are, they know that only when Chen Yong's official position is getting higher and higher, can the life of the big guy be more stable. What's more, Miyun Island is such a habitable place, no one wants to leave. Who wouldn't want to live here for the rest of their lives and enjoy this quiet and peaceful life?
When Chen Yong was in the middle of Miyun Island, Gongsun Zhan would naturally not be idle. After he left Jicheng, he led a large army to Youbeiping County, where he was stationed. In fact, this place should be Chen Yong's place to assist in defense, but Chen Yong's soldiers and horses are too few, and they can only take care of it, and it is impossible to garrison troops. And Gongsun Chan is Chen Yong's top boss, he has to come to Youbeiping County, and no one can stop him.
What's more, Gongsun Zhan sent troops under an edict, and he was not a brainless person. The imperial court asked him to command the military horses in Youzhou, and he had the responsibility of guarding the whole territory, so naturally the troops here were all under his control. However, he couldn't mobilize Liu Yu's troops in Youzhou, and Chen Yong's one or two thousand people, he was inconvenient to command, Gongsun Zhan knew that only his own development team would be with him, so he didn't expect other people's military horses.
Gongsun Zhan was stationed and led his army to be stationed in Beiping County, which was actually the territory of Wuyan, the king of Wuhuan Khan Lu, as his territory. However, Wu Yanshan Yu also did not dare to disobey the orders of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, so he had to accept Gongsun Zhan's garrison to be stationed here. During this period, Gongsun Chan retaliated against the Qiu Liju Department of Liaoxi County, and even more unscrupulous means for expansion.
Because Gongsun Chan took Qiu Liju's Liucheng, he robbed most of the gold and silver in the treasure house. The Xianbei tribe's Budugen and Kebineng divided the coins and jewels in the treasure house, but the gold and silver were basically obtained by Gongsun Zhan. Then Gongsun Zhan instructed the soldiers and horses of the Xianbei Department to carry out a bloody slaughter of Liucheng. Those Xianbei royal clans and the new tribes were all warlike people, they also had the nature of plundering and predating the weak, and Gongsun Chan did not stop them.
Gongsun Zhan believed in the ability of Zuo Ci Immortal Master, and he was also afraid that leading the army to slaughter the people of Liucheng would damage Yangshou, but he would not let go of the Wuhuan people in Liucheng like this. Gongsun Chan allowed Budugen and Kebineng to slaughter the people of the Wuhuan clan in Liucheng and let them plunder the materials of Liucheng. It's a pity that after three days and three nights of madness, there are even more corpses in Liucheng City, and blood is flowing like a river!
But Gongsun Chan was complacent, always thinking that his plan to kill people with a knife made it very beautiful. But he did not know that all these sins had been fulfilled and had fallen upon him. Even if Gongsun Chan symbolically saved some of the Wuhuan people later, just to highlight his benevolence and morality, he didn't know that God had recorded all these atrocities of Gongsun Chan.
When the master of Qiu Liju in Liaoxi County returned, the population of Liucheng was only one-eighth of the original. Especially those princes and nobles, who suffered heavy casualties. Because the Xianbei people mainly rob and rob money, it is natural that the richer they are, the more they bear the brunt and become the target of their plunder. Naturally, Lord Qiu Liju could not rest on his laurels, and he knew that if he did not do anything, he would soon lose the support of the people. So he led the Wuhuan Raid and killed Youzhou.
Although Gongsun Zhan is in Youbeiping County, because he has a lot of money and food, he also recruited soldiers and horses in the Wuhuan Department very smoothly. Because of this, Gongsun Zhan's "White Horse Righteousness" began to take shape. He himself was originally a white horse, and at this time, he organized all the white horse riders to become his own personal guards, led by the general Yan Gang, called "White Horse Yicong"! This "righteous obedience" is the collective name for those who follow themselves of each tribe.
There are all kinds of war horses, only those who ride white horses can be called "white horse righteousness", and the soldiers of other horses are naturally under the command of generals such as Tian Kai, Shan Jing, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan, etc. By the time Lord Qiu Liju of Liaoxi County arrived with his army, his army had reached 5,000 people. But at this time, Qiu Liju had an army of 20,000. These Wuhuan raiders who want to avenge their clansmen are naturally people blocking and killing, and Buddhas are blocking and killing Buddhas!
Gongsun Chan and others are the tyranny of Qiu Liju's department, due to the terrain, Gongsun Zhan's defenders are stationed on the high ground, even if Qiu Liju's first fierce general, Su Lie, leads the Wuhuan Assault Cavalry, it will not have any effect on the garrison of Gongsun Chan who has set up camp and is in the horns. In addition to losing troops and being killed by random arrows, Gongsun Zhan's barracks could not be broken at all.
What's more, Gongsun Chan is even more of a soldier at this time, and the soldiers of Gongsun Chan are holding their breath and want to be ashamed of the snow pipe city. Naturally, it is the life of the three armies, dare to fight and dare to kill! And Su Lie's Wuhuan Turf cavalry fought with courage, so it was naturally a one-way battle, then a decline, and three exhaustions. When Gongsun Chan confirmed that he could withstand Su Lie's assault three charges, he felt that their attack power was weaker than the first.
And his defenders are even more morale at this time, especially those pro-soldiers who follow him in Guanzi City, they are even more enthusiastic, and if they don't take Qiu Liju's Wuhuan Tuqi to vent their anger, how can the anger in their hearts be eliminated? Gongsun Chan saw that the time was ripe, so he waved the handsome flag in his hand, and he took the lead and led the "White Horse Righteous Cong" to rush out of the barracks! And Tian Kai, Shan Jing, Gongsun Yue and other soldiers at the horns, seeing Gongsun Zhan's handsome banner rushing out, they naturally came out!
The morale of one side is high, and the other side is exhausted. The outcome of this battle is naturally conceivable. Su Lie, the first fierce general of Wuhuan, no matter how brave they are, they can't stop Gongsun Zhan's "White Horse Yicong" regardless of the impact of life and death! Su Lie's turquoise cavalry was quickly defeated, and was chased and killed for dozens of miles by Gongsun Zhan's "White Horse Righteous Servant". Na Su Lie's 8,000 cavalry suffered heavy losses in the first battle, from 8,000 men and horses, only more than 3,000 people were directly recovered, and the direct battle losses reached a small 5,000 people!
At this time, Gongsun Zhan only had 5,000 men and horses, and in this battle, he killed 3,000 Wuhuan Tucai and surrendered 2,000 Wuhuan Tucai. Those Wuhuan cavalry were scattered by the impact, and they were beaten by Gongsun Zhan's "White Horse Yicong" and couldn't find the north. In the end, he was besieged by Gongsun Zhan's army, and he surrendered more than 2,000 horses in a battle. Gongsun Chan lost more than 1,000 people in this battle, but with the more than 2,000 men and horses surrendered, the army now has 6,000 people.
Gongsun Zhan distributed the two thousand Wuhuan cavalry to the commanders of various generals. These Wuhuan Turquoise cavalry were naturally assigned to the forefront of the various assault teams, that is, the positions with the heaviest battle losses. But wealth and wealth are in danger, if you perform well in the next battle, Gongsun Zhan's bounty is also rich! And the road to promotion is just around the corner! After this battle, Gongsun Chan rewarded the three armies, and this time the soldiers under Gongsun Chan were even more demoralized, sharpening their knives!
Qiu Liju's first fierce general, Su Lie, was defeated by Gongsun Zhan, and he had to bear the guilt of Jing Plea, return to the headquarters, and accept the punishment of Lord Qiu Liju. Lord Qiu Liju never imagined that Gongsun Zhan's troops would be so brave and good at fighting, and they would defeat their own army of 8,000 with 5,000 people. Qiu Liju naturally knew that this was the time to employ people, so he exempted Su Lie from responsibility and ordered him to make persistent efforts, and the dignity lost on the battlefield must be regained on the battlefield!
Qiu Liju led an army of more than 12,000 people, and once again broke through, he just had to rely on the superiority in numbers and go all out to win this battle! When Qiu Liju's army made a comeback again, Gongsun Zhan naturally learned that this time it was Qiu Liju who personally led his troops to confront him. The two armies naturally displayed their flags, embroidered ribbons fluttering, and appeared together on the battlefield.
Gongsun Zhan urged the horse to come to the front of the two armies, and shouted loudly: "Qiu Liju, Er is the single Yu of Wuhuan Liaoxi, why do you want to repeatedly offend my Huaxia Tianwei?" Do you really want to go your own way and become an enemy of my Han Emperor? You have thought about it, you Wuhuan people, you can afford the power of my big man! ”
Qiu Liju had been cornered at this time, and he naturally had no intention of being an enemy of the Han Dynasty. What's more, after Youzhou Mu Liu Yu came, he had the intention of surrendering. But at this time, he was facing off against the two armies of Gongsun Zhan, how could he increase the popularity of others and destroy his prestige? What's more, Su Lie was defeated yesterday, and it is even more impossible for him to admit defeat at this time.
Qiu Liju also urged the horse to rush out of the queue and come to the front of the two armies! That Qiu Liju said angrily: "Gongsun Zhan, you are the defeated general of my Lord Qiu Liju, have you forgotten the danger of Guanzi City?" If it weren't for the virtue of a good life in your family, your life would have been taken by me a long time ago! If the child still doesn't want to repent, does he still want to destroy the whole army again? The reason why you were rescued last time was because I saw in front of Lord Liu Yu of Youzhou, so I spared your life! If you fight again today, you won't have this chance! ”
Gongsun Chan shouted loudly: "Qiu Liju, I heard that you are the enemy of ten thousand people!" Today, you and I are facing each other, do you dare to compete with my Gongsun Zhan? How about the two of us duel it out in this battle? If my grandson loses, I will be at your disposal, what do you think? But if you lose, what promise do you dare not make? ”
