Chapter 377: King Wu of Great Wei
Guanzhong is very different from the Central Plains.
After Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Ma Teng, and Han Sui took turns to loot, the family here has long lost its prestige, and it is either forced to marry the warlord of Guanzhong, or become a warlord himself, so it is naturally impossible to maintain the illustrious reputation of the previous Ma Shi Wei.
When Guan Ping entered Guanzhong before, he had already intended to disband the literate soldiers under his command, let them go deep into the people, and form a militia.
These militias have not yet been incorporated into the local army, and Cao Wei's generals such as Xiahoudun and Ding Fei think that this is all nonsense, and the people should farm and serve, and there is no need to do anything else at all.
But Guan Ping has not given up the promotion of the militia, as Guanzhong becomes more and more stable, with Xu Shu promoting, the militia began to continue to promote in the vicinity.
They didn't have food and money to reward them, and they couldn't even keep any contact with the Yunshan Army for a long time, but they always believed in one thing in their hearts.
As long as General Yunshan is here, Guanzhong will be stable, with General Yunshan in charge, their women will not be taken away as slaves, they will not be driven to the fields and fields but only get a little rations that are difficult to fill, and the land they have worked so hard will not be plundered at will.
Because there are too few people who can be used at hand, Xu Shu has been emphasizing one point when promoting the militia - everything they do does not come from gifts, but only from the concerted efforts of all people, and they can fight for their own interests with their own hands, so that they can have at least hope.
But Xu Shu also emphasized that Yunshan would be their backing, and the hero who repelled the strong enemy in Guanzhong and returned the peace in Guanzhong would never abandon them, and hoped that they would not abandon this hero in times of danger.
Now that Xiahoudun has cut off the supply to Yunshan, the people of Guanzhong immediately realize that Guanzhong may be in chaos again.
Everything they have now may be lost at any time, and if the hard work of spring ploughing is for these people who continue to exploit and insult them, it is better to give up directly.
Organized by the militia, they fled south spontaneously, just as they had fled the fighting.
Although Xiahoudun controlled Chang'an, the most important stronghold in Guanzhong, and sent many officials to the surrounding areas, they obviously did not understand why the common people would abandon the spring ploughing and the significantly more powerful Wei army to join the isolated Yunshan.
Xiahoudun was furious and immediately ordered that the people should not be allowed to flee south.
He personally came to the outside of Chang'an to intercept the people who had fled south, and demanded that they immediately return to the fields to cultivate and not be allowed to go south.
But the problem is, if you can stop it casually, how can there be so many displaced people in the previous wars.
The more Xiahoudun obstructed him, the more panicked the people became.
The panic brought by Cao Pi on behalf of the Han Dynasty completely broke out at this moment, all the people left one after another despite the dissuasion, and the local officials did not dare to force them to stay, which made Xiahoudun even more lonely.
There are still people who obey his orders in Chang'an City, but out of Chang'an has completely become a fart, and everything is as usual when he does not cut off the supply to Yunshan, but now he can't even recruit at least a minimum of conscription, and this battle has not even started.
"How, how is this good?" Xiahoudun was completely panicked at this time.
After fighting a lifetime, it was the first time he had encountered such a strange scene.
In desperation, he could only choose to continue to ask Changdiao, hoping that the commander of the school affairs could come up with some suitable plans.
Chang Diao saw that Xiahoudun was already in chaos, and suddenly gloated a little.
However, because of the majesty of Xiahoudun, he still didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he could only use the way that Xu Shu taught him before:
"Guan Ping has been in Guanzhong for a long time, and he has won the hearts of the people, and he never expected it to become like this. This is all Chang's negligence, if the general is to blame, Chang is willing to be punished. โ
"At this time, where can there be anything to be punished? Giant Eagle, hurry up and find out where Guanping is, and I will mobilize elite soldiers to quell the chaos in Guanzhong. โ
Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang and others were all good generals, as long as they could mobilize the right soldiers and horses, Xiahou was confident that he could quickly suppress the rebellion in Yunshan.
But if he is not given a chance to decide, Luoyang has already sent an urgent military situation-
"Report! Lejin Cai Mao has rebelled and has led the army to break through Wancheng! โ
"Report! Zang Ba is also reversed! Attacking Langya! โ
After Le Jin received the edict of Cao Pi as the emperor, he immediately threw the edict on the ground, he originally wanted to directly behead the messenger, but under the persuasion of Ma Liang, he changed the name to Cao Pi and damaged the majesty of the Cao family, and he was too lazy to deal with Cao Pi.
He even claimed that Cao Cao entrusted Cao Zhi to him before his death, saying that if Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, he would serve Cao Zhi as the main and pacify Cao Pi.
These words can be regarded as giving the Cao family a huge step, and for a while, except for Cao Pi's anger, the other Cao families did not show much anger.
In addition, Zang Ba also said that Cao Pi betrayed Cao Cao in chaos, he refused to accept the chaos, and was ready to occupy Taishan County and other places to stand on his own, and did not obey Cao Pi's orders.
Although the two did not explicitly rebel, they had already dispatched a large army.
Especially the huge threat of Lejin has not been eliminated before, as soon as he sent troops, he directly surrounded Wancheng, and united with Huo Jun who surrounded him again, and the momentum was huge for a while.
"Well, how is this good?" Xiahoudun muttered.
Chang Diao smiled bitterly:
"This ...... We haven't lost Chang'an now, let's hold Chang'an and Huayin first, and wait for the situation! โ
ยท
Cao Pi in Luoyang City was also furious.
Although they knew that Le Jin and Zang Ba would rebel sooner or later, the two chose to jump back directly after he became emperor, and they still gave Cao Pi a slap in the face.
Now that the territory of Great Wei is in flames in an instant, he has to do his best to quell the rebellion.
These subordinates under Cao Cao's command have become enemies one by one, Cao Pi's mood can be imagined, he was a little dazed for a while, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Counterinsurgency must be counterinsurgent, but who to let go?
Before, he would definitely be eager to transfer Yunshan to participate in the battle.
With Yunshan here, Cao Pi can just keep it in his heart and wait quietly for the news of victory to come.
But Yunshan is very likely to be Guan Ping, how could Cao Pi use this person to quell the rebellion?
He did not recover from the joy of being the emperor and suffered such pain, and he felt extremely desolate, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Where is the child?" Cao Pi muttered.
Ma Tan was Cao Pi's important staff officer when he was diving in the new field, and after Cao Pi became emperor, he summoned him to his side as a servant, and he could only summon this person quickly at this moment.
Ma Jian hurried over, hurriedly saluted Cao Pi, and said His Majesty.
His Majesty's voice made Cao Pi's heart soothe a little, and he stared at Ma Jian and said:
"What do you want?"
Cao Pi is not stupid, he knows that he will never be able to do anything with Lejin, Lejin's biggest supporter is Ma Liang, Ma Yan's brother, as long as he negotiates the conditions with Ma Liang, Lejin's way is naturally not enough, and Zang Ba's soldiers are few and lonely, and it must be easy to deal with.
Ma Jian nodded and said in a deep voice:
"My brother doesn't know the destiny of heaven, he always wants to dominate Jingxiang, he only hates the three mutual laws, and he can't be the pastor of Jingzhou, so he has been encouraging Lejin to rebel.
Now that the chaos has become a great disorder, please ask Your Majesty to punish the crime. โ
Cao Pi laughed contemptuously, and said neatly:
"Hmph, what can I do with your sin? Is it possible to retreat and advance all the way? Tell me, what should I do? โ
Ma Tan knew that Cao Pi didn't dare to risk killing himself and completely offended the people of Jingzhou, he had the heart to give Cao Pi random ideas, but he also knew that Cao Pi was quite elite under his tent, and if he talked nonsense, he was afraid that he would soon be recognized, and it would attract jokes.
He thought for a moment, and hurriedly said:
"For today's plan, we should first go south and then west, and ignore the east for the time being. When the army guards Wancheng, now the spring ploughing is urgent, and the army may not be able to live on the energy consumption, our army will say him again in the past, Xu Qiyong will be in Jingzhou, and then send someone to reward Cai Mao, doubt the heart of Lejin, and will be able to win.
On the side of Yunshan, it is expected that it will not be able to attack Chang'an in a few days, and it will retreat when the spring ploughing starts, and it can still buy some time.
When the soldiers and horses of the two roads retreated, they immediately led a large army to attack Zang Ba, and all the generals under Zang Ba's command may not be willing to rebel against him. โ
Cao Pi nodded slowly, noncommittal, he chatted with Ma Jian some more gossip, and after personally sending Ma Jian away, he sent someone to summon Sima Yi quickly.
Compared with Ma Tan, Sima Yi must be more trusted, and asking Ma Jian for advice before was Sima Yi's idea to Cao Pi, hoping to hear the opinion of this Jingzhou celebrity.
Cao Pi relayed Ma Tan's suggestion to Sima Yi in its original form, and Sima Yi couldn't help but applaud when he heard it.
"Ma Youchang is really talented, this person's ability is by no means under Ma Liang, Your Majesty can act according to the plan, which is enough to make the thieves retreat, and the world is worry-free."
Seeing that Sima Yi agreed with Ma Yan's suggestion, Cao Pi's pale face showed a trace of unspeakable strangeness.
He lowered his head and thought for a long time, and said:
"There's no better way?"
At the beginning of the new dynasty, it was immediately attacked by a strong enemy, which was really a bit embarrassing.
Cao Pi is a very face-saving person, he never wants to be attacked by the enemy and then use such gentle means to deal with the enemy, he wants to attack, he wants to attack freely, and knock down all the enemies at once, and he is naturally unwilling to accept Ma Tan's gentle opinion.
Moreover, he thinks that Ma Yan's plan is very good, but if he tells Ma Liang about this matter as it is, won't everything be over?
He stared at Sima Yi directly, forcing Sima Yi to come up with an idea with his eyes.
Sima Yi sighed lightly and said with a wry smile:
"Then there's only one way to do it now."
"Zhongda said."
"With Sun Quan as the king of Wu, let him immediately send troops to quell the rebellion."
"Wonderful." Cao Pi bowed, but then found another problem, "But far water does not quench the thirst of the near, if Sun Quan attacks Lejin, Guan Yu will be saved, and Sun Quan may not be able to defeat him." After this battle, it is more difficult to deal with Guan Yu's peace, and then come back. โ
Sima Yi gritted his teeth and smiled:
"Has Your Majesty forgotten that when Emperor Wu was here, he once laid an ambush with an elite army.
Now, it's time to use them. โ
Cao Pi was stunned at first, and then exclaimed:
"You said the general of the Xianbei Huns?"
