Chapter Twenty-Seven: The horse steps on Youzhou to test the blade of the sword

"Knock knock!"

The sound of horses' hooves trembling in the earth, the stirring dust, the countless cavalry whistling by, and the carts, hundreds of people were escorted out of Youzhou in groups either actively or passively.

After the rise of the Yan Kingdom, the relationship with the Han Dynasty was very delicate, and every year the Yan Kingdom would send envoys to pay tribute and offer the specialties of Liaodong.

Every time the will of the imperial court is issued, it will find a reason to shirk it.

Moreover, the Yan State also drove the Hu people in Liaodong to the west and south in waves.

As a result, more and more Hu people entered Bingzhou and Youzhou, and they continued to spread westward.

How can this make the invincible man endure it?

As a result, the relationship between the two sides gradually became tense, and armed conflicts arose.

The relationship between the two sides was quite hostile, and it was certainly impossible for the imperial court to exile the population to Liaodong again.

Adhering to the principle that the mountain is not for me, I will be for the mountain.

So Yan Guo went south to Youzhou, starting from the border, and the emptying of the population from county to county was a real emptying, and it was completely carried out as a national policy.

At first, ordinary people were still panicked, but then they resigned themselves to the destiny of heaven.

In addition to being colder, Yan is a new regime, and it is also a small country, and in terms of the degree of integrity and organization, it is better than the current rotten Han court.

But for the officials of Youzhou and the ministers of the Han Dynasty, this is naturally a shame.

However, after the current Yan State went south from the north of Liaodong, conquered Liaodong, and occupied some counties and counties in Youzhou, it was a very stable country integrating nomadism and farming.

If you want to conquer such a country, it costs a lot of money, and you have tried several times, but the results are very poor.

The frequent outbreaks of natural disasters in the country made the minister and the emperor rest their thoughts on temporarily fighting the founding war with the Yan State.

This is not a direct endurance, since the defeat of the Xiongnu, the Han court has never thought of enduring, and now the minister and the emperor are thinking about recovering in the future, and they must raze the Yan Kingdom to the ground.

Among the countless galloping knights, a young general in armor rushed to the bottom of the big sword and asked the heroic general urgently, "General, are we just going to leave?" Now the Han court is breaking out civil strife, the Taiping Dao has swept Youzhou, and the Han court is short of troops, this is a good opportunity for us. ”

The general rode on his horse and saw the young general's unfamiliar face with a hint of familiarity, so he asked, "What family are you?" ”

Hearing this, the young general clenched his fists and said loudly: "General Hui, the kid was born in the Murong clan of Xuanmen County. ”

"Xuanmen Murong Clan?!"

The general was surprised.

The Murong clan is not much in the Yan Kingdom.

At that time, the ancestors of the Yan State were exiled around the Great Xianbei Mountain north of Liaodong, where a Hu tribe called "Xianbei" already lived.

Not only were the ancestors of the Yan Kingdom exiled, but both the Liu royal family and the rest of the Haoqiang family were expelled from the genealogy, deprived of their surnames, and became lonely ghosts.

But how can a person not have a surname?

In ancient times, surnames were nothing more than official positions, fiefdoms, and bestows.

In the edict of exile, the emperor asked them to use their place names to always remember that they and their descendants were descendants of exiled sinners.

Although humiliating, who would dare to disobey the orders of the Han Emperor?

Under the blue sky of Hanting several times, no one can!

This led to the Han people in the Yan Kingdom having a lot of compound surnames, and there were many duplicate surnames, and even duplicated with the Xianbei people.

Although there are not many people in the Murong clan, there are many branches, and there are even Xianbei people who are sinicized.

However, the Murong family, who was born in Xuanmen County, should be the line of exiled Taoist disciples, and the surname is taken from "Mu Eryi's way, following the appearance of Sanguang", which is unique in the Yan country, which is generally given by official positions and place names.

The Xuanmen Murong clan is a big clan in the Yan Kingdom, with a family tradition, and most importantly, the Murong clan has a hand of medical skills, when he was just exiled to Da Xianbei Mountain, this hand of medicine does not know how many lives have been saved.

The young general was not surprised by the general's performance, and hugged his fists and said: "It is the Xuanmen Murong Clan!" ”

Knowing the identity of the young general, the general nodded slightly, his relationship with the Murong clan was not bad, so he said kindly: "The reason why we have to withdraw in time is precisely because there is civil strife in the Han Empire.

On the surface, it seems that the Han Ting is in chaos, which is our opportunity for Dayan, but in fact, this is not the case, and the strength of the Han Court is far from being comparable to that of my Dayan.

was only the emperor of the Han Dynasty before, and the emperor of Luoyang was worried that the place would be big, so he restrained his hands and feet.

Now that the Han Court has relaxed these restrictions, its military strength will usher in a big explosion, and my Dayan is still too conspicuous in the territory of the Han Court.

And my Dayan is not stable internally, the strength of the Xianbei Hu people has grown rapidly, and geniuses have emerged in endlessly, whether it is my Dayan or Han Ting, they have already suffered a lot of defeats in a row.

And you know that there is a lot of fighting in the country right now, and you can't support a big army to start a big war.

Now we are waiting to send this batch of 100,000 people to Dayan, and after I have a population of more than one million people in Dayan, I will concentrate on development for several years, and then stir up chaos and disputes in the Han court and consume the strength of the Han court.

In time, when the Han court is tired, it may not be impossible to return to the ancestral land and wash away the shame of the year. ”

When General Murong heard this, he wanted to say something, but the general stopped him directly.

Today's young people have grown up in the victory of Yan State over Han Ting, and there is some contempt for this behemoth of Han Ting.

But the general knew how many outstanding people there were in the Han Dynasty, and knew that it was not as simple as imagined, when Chen Fan served as the pastor of Youzhou, connecting the heroes of Youzhou and the land of Nanyan, and conquering Northern Yan together, so that the invincible momentum of Northern Yan stagnated.

In recent years, a group of generals have risen in Youzhou, and the young people of the Gongsun family, the clansmen of the Liu family, and many heroes should not be underestimated.

These people may not be anything in the entire Han court, and the wealthy family of 2,000 stones in the border county is just a bun, but for the Yan Kingdom, the ten Luoyang wealthy families together are not as good as one wealthy family in the border county.

The Yan Kingdom was born from hardships and hardships, in order to survive the integration of some customs of the Hu people, abandoning many inappropriate cumbersome etiquette, focusing on practicality, full of force, quite like the early development of the aristocracy of the Bang Zhou Dynasty in the past.

Only the wealthy families of the border counties can win their respect, and those scholars who talk about themselves in Luoyang are just the souls of their swords.

"Needless to say, look."

The general pointed into the distance, and the young general looked at it, only to see that there was a little smoke and dust in the distance, and ordinary people would not pay attention to it at all, but after all, he was born in a famous family, and the elders in the family had taught him experience, and immediately exclaimed: "Enemy attack!" ”

The general was not in a hurry, and said calmly: "It's an enemy attack, and it's thousands of cavalry, don't panic." ”

I saw him slowly pull out the horse lance, he liked this weapon, and shouted loudly: "Great Yan Erlang, resist the enemy!"

Murderer, knight, bounty and silver! ”

"No!"

Everyone thundered in unison!

————

The military strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty is strange, its military strength is extremely strong, with excellent generals and well-qualified soldiers, as well as social recognition of military exploits, but it often suffers defeats externally.

After research, the author has judged that this is a typical mutual restraint between the central and local governments, and is the inevitable result of the system, that is, the monarch involuntarily suspects the local princes, and the local princes are afraid, and the adverse consequences that result from this.

These factors led to the rise of powerful enemies around the Eastern Han Dynasty and the gradual centrifugation of the Bondage region. ——"The History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
