Volume 3 Chapter 61 The Return of the Son of Heaven [1]

There are Xianbei in the west in the north of the state, Qianghu in the west, Yanmen Wuhuan in Yanmen County, and the Xiongnu in the west, all of which should not be underestimated. Among them, the Southern Xiongnu was divided into two parts in the fifth year of Zhongping, one stayed in the hometown, with more than 100,000 people; The other followed Qubei and Yufuluo to Hedong County, and there were tens of thousands, and then they colluded with the white wave thieves to make a living by looting. Xianbei in the west is directly under Danhan Mountain, and its power is not weak, with a population of hundreds of thousands. There are fewer people in the Qianghu and Wuhuan tribes, and they are also between 30,000 and 50,000. The state of the Han Dynasty was in decline, Xun Zhuo led the state army to the south, and the counties of the state were greatly emptied, and all the ethnic groups were ready to move.

At the beginning, Wu Zifang pacified and merged the state, but in fact, only occupied the part that was still under the control of the Great Han State at that time. Among the nine counties in the state, Taiyuan County and Shangdang County are completely under control; And Yanmen County is okay - when Yanmen Wuhuan exterminated Zhang Yan, he received a lot of blows and temporarily defended himself; Xihe County was inhabited by the Southern Hungarians from time to time, and often traveled between Shangjun and Hedong, and the situation was not very good; The four counties of Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, and Shuofang are mostly out of control.

Of course, the population of Bingzhou was not large, and the eight ** concentrated in the three counties of Taiyuan, Shangdang and Yanmen. Dingxiang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Shuofang and other counties are sparsely populated, with only 20,000 or 30,000 people and even less than 10,000 people, which is not as large as the population of an ordinary county town in the interior. In these places, there are far more Hu people than Han people, so if there is a little turmoil, the lands will no longer be owned by our Han people.

In the past two years, Wu Zifang has gained a stable foothold, and has actively recovered the lost territory, and has successively recovered the four counties of Dingxiang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Shuofang. But. The 27 cities of the three counties of Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Shuofang were recovered, and the Han people could no longer be seen. Now that the situation is unstable, Wu Zifang cannot emigrate. The locals were all garrisons.

"......, and the state situation, that's it.

Our army occupies the essence of Bingzhou, the Luliang Mountains protect the western flank of the place, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not difficult for our army to defend......"

Wu Zifang sat there. The speech is concise, the waist is straight, and the hands are naturally hanging down on the knees, which is very military-style. The sun shone through the glass window on his body, and a few traces of silver were revealed on his neatly combed head, and a little wind and frost were also revealed on his well-defined face. Obvious. The reconquest of lost territory is not as insipid as Wu Zifang said. The hardships are hard, and Zhang Han is clear. The big river is harmful, and it is only one set of profits. The Hetao is a land of abundant water and grass, and no one will willingly give it away.

"......, if you want to solve the affairs of the state, you must first solve the Yanmen Wuhuan ......"

The overall situation of Youzhou has been decided, and Zhang Han naturally shifted his attention to Merging the state. This time he was transferred back to Wu Zifang, but he hoped to use Wu Zifang's personal experience to determine the strategy of merging the state.

With Wu Zifang's narration. Zhang Han gradually had a clear understanding of the situation in the state.

Wu Zifang's department occupies seven counties in Bingzhou, what he calls the "essence area". It refers to the three counties of Taiyuan, Shangdang and Yanmen, that is, Shanxi in later generations. The remaining four counties have no residents. They are all garrisons, there is no oil and water, and the tribes would rather go to graze than plunder the garrison. Therefore, the only thing that needs to be defended is 'Shanxi'. There is Luliang in the west of Shanxi, the Yellow River in the south, and the gap in the north is Yanmen Pass. It's easy to defend and hard to attack. As the head of the Nine Stops, Yanmen Pass is the first important place for Shanxi's defense.

Wu Zifang didn't say how to solve Yanmen Wuhuan. Needless to say, this is not to be said. If it is honest, it will be like the treatment of Shanggu Wuhuan - scattered and separated; Popularize compulsory education, teach them to learn Chinese characters, and learn to farm; Mobilize young and middle-aged people into the army, drive them to the vanguard, reduce the natural increase of the population, and prevent human movement; Encourage interracial marriage...... Etcetera. Otherwise, Zhang Jian is still short of labor!

“…… Then, reset the ...... of the Xiongnu Zhonglang General and the Duliao General"

According to Wu Zifang's meaning, it is in this name that he slowly regained control of the Southern Xiongnu, and moved it into the interior at the appropriate time.

"Well, Boju is confident!"

What Wu Zifang said was very much in line with Zhang Han's mind, so he took the opportunity to praise it. Wu Zifang smiled and didn't speak, so Zhang Han didn't say more.

"The overall situation in Youzhou has been decided, and Liu Chenggao (Liu Wenbiao) still needs a little time, but the war in Gao Zirou (Gao Shun) has come to an end. Next, it is enough for Ning County to retain 20,000 troops, and I will transfer all the Wuhuan cavalry to the south, and there are still 20,000 infantry, so I will transfer them to Bingzhou. Last year, a lot of cattle and horses were captured, and the cavalry of the Fourth Army was newly formed, and there was an army in Ningxian and an army in Liuxian......"

The Korean Peninsula is mountainous and flat, and it is full of hills, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. I didn't want to, but I encountered Zhang Han's army, and the generals and colonels trained from Mengshan fought in the mountains. Caravans of all sizes went deep into the peninsula to trade with them, and detailed maps had been prepared. In this way, wherever the army goes, it will be like beating the withered and decaying, and the battle will be won and conquered.

Of the seventy-eight countries of the three Koreas, Mahan accounted for fifty-four countries, and the power was twice as strong as that of Chenhan and Chenzhi combined. Among the Mahans, Baekje is the most powerful. After the defeat of Baekje, Zhuhan lost the confidence to resist, and the war on the Korean Peninsula was coming to an end.

And so it was. Not long after, less than three months, Liu Wenbiao had swept away Zhuhan and occupied the Korean Peninsula. Zhang Han then merged Chen Han and Chen's land together, and brought Han? The land is divided into three counties and merged into Youzhou, namely Obifang County, Zhenban County and Tatsu County. At the same time, Zhang Han abolished the subject state of Liaodong and incorporated its territory into the two counties of Liaodong and Liaoxi, respectively, and Youzhou was increased to 13 counties. Naturally, the three counties at that time were still on paper, and before the Han people moved in large numbers, they were still barren land under military control.

The whole territory of Youzhou is flat, and the Bohai Sea has become an inland sea (Zhang Han looked at the map and thought about turning the Yellow Sea into an inland sea. However, he is also thinking about it at this point). The establishment of the ports of Quanzhou (Wuqing), Qinhuangdao, Liaoshuikou (Yingkou), Yushi, and Mushuikou (Incheon) greatly improved the traffic situation in Youzhou (including the Korean Peninsula). Starting from any port in the north, it can be as short as three to five days, and it will not be ten days for a long time, and you can arrive at the port of Qingzhou. This closely links Youzhou and Qingzhou. The cost of sea transportation is relatively low, and it facilitates the exchange of personnel and materials between the two states. It can be said that Youzhou is no longer a remote place, but adjacent to Qingzhou.

In the battle against Xianbei in Liaoxi, Gao Shun commanded the army and won successive battles. However, Kobi was able to retreat into advance, and the tribe was relocated to the north, and the people who came to fight were all cavalry, coming and going in a hurry like the wind, advancing and retreating freely. However, Kebineng was cautious and cautious, and Gao Shun designed several times, but he was never able to seize the favorable opportunity and achieve a decisive victory. When the cold winter was approaching, Gao Shun had no choice but to withdraw the army. Kebineng led his troops to follow, exerting pressure and searching for fighters. Retreat is a difficult thing, and if you are not careful, it is easy to turn from retreat to rout. So, Gao Shun personally led the team to the queen. Encouraged by this, although the whole army retreated, however

Falling, the three armies are in order. Kebineng tried twice, but instead ate and attacked again, escorting the Han army all the way back. The war is over.

However, although Gao Shun did not win, the threat of Liaoxi Xianbei was not great. The establishment of the company camp made it impossible for Xianbei to invade and plunder. In other words, the Han army could attack at any time, but Liaoxi Xianbei couldn't, that is, it could no longer pose a substantial threat to Youzhou. Since it was not yet the time to solve Xianbei, Zhang Han ordered Gao Shun to send troops to harass him in the summer and autumn every year, so that the Xianbei people could not graze with peace of mind, so he put the matter aside for the time being. Since the recent battle is mainly harassment, it is inevitable that the army will be transferred back to rest. And transferring the Wuhuan cavalry to the south to fight and conscripting the Han army into the north to fight was a small means of Zhang Han.

The terrain of Youzhou is conducive to defense, and there are not many ways to enter and exit the fortress, and most of them are in the hands of the Han Dynasty. At this time, he controlled the two main roads in and out of Youzhou, Liuying and Ningxian, and blocked the road for Xianbei's invasion. And Goguryeo is not yet a climate, and it has long been cleaned up by Gongsun Du. All this has greatly improved the security situation in Youzhou and created the necessary conditions for large-scale migration.

At the beginning of April, Zhang Han announced that anyone who was willing to move to Youzhou would be able to get a thousand acres of land for thousands of dollars as long as they cultivated and lived in the land for five years.

As soon as the decree was announced, it immediately caused a sensation. Anyway, they are all migrations, as long as the place of residence is transferred from Jizhou to Youzhou, and the same amount of money can be obtained, no one will be unwilling to do so. The two places are often close to each other. So, after some people tried, the wave of Xindi immigration began. Considering the factors of transportation, that is, the distance from their hometowns, and the cost of migration, Jizhou people mostly choose Yuyang, Shanggu and other counties, while Qingzhou people mostly choose Obifang, Zhenfan, Liaoxi, Liaodong and other counties. Taking advantage of the small number of residents, Zhang Han also established more than a dozen military horse farms in Youzhou. Specializing in the breeding of military horses and the improvement of horse breeds, providing excellent war horses for the cavalry army. Of course, that's all for later.

"Lord ......"

As soon as Wu Zifang heard about the cavalry troops, his eyes immediately lit up. The four counties outside the state are either deserts or grasslands, and they want to compete with the Hu people. It has to be cavalry. He also trained 6,000 cavalry in Bingzhou, but the more the better.

The military system of the Han Dynasty is a two-five system. Zhang Han continued his establishment, but changed slightly in the song: that is, two Wu and one Shi, five Shi and one Tun (50 people); One team in two tuns, one song in five teams (500 people); One of the five songs, one army of five parts. The first army is 12,500, plus a number of auxiliary troops such as baggage battalions, ambulance battalions, and craftsman battalions, and the first army is about 10,000. Of course, the cavalry units were slightly less numerous, about 10 thousand combat troops. With the addition of auxiliary troops, it is about 10,000 or so.

"Boju. If you want cavalry, you can say it if you want it. However, cavalry is not something that can be trained overnight, and I think the current cavalry can be used as mounted infantry......"

Zhang Han mentioned the cavalry, and he wanted to give it to Wu Zifang, but seeing that Wu Zifang was eager, he couldn't help but make a joke.

"It's okay! Lord, I don't dislike it! ”

Zhang Han laughed. Wu Zi is convenient to make fun and laugh. In any case, there are always not too many cavalry.

"Boju. I'm telling the truth, but I'm telling the truth! ”

"Lord, so am I!"

……

"That's right, Boju, don't be in a hurry when you act, take your time, and solve the Yanmen Wuhuan first......"

Facing Wu Zifang's puzzled eyes, Zhang Han pointed westward:

"Someone can't help it!"

……

Indeed, Si Li's situation is confused, and some people really can't stand it.

Sili sits in the two capitals of Yang and Chang'an, where the humanities gather and the wealth gathers, which is the essence of the world. However, Yang was plagued by Xun Zhuo again, and it was already deserted, and it was almost a wilderness. However, the emperor moved the capital to Chang'an, but the three auxiliaries of Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Feng, and Right Fufeng were not affected by the war, and they were rich and rich, with a large population, and millions of people moved in from Yang. For a time, the population of Sanfu soared to 2 million, with almost 400,000 households.

However, Lee? The others were originally born in the army, and they were originally only a partial general, who had been at war with Hulu for a long time, and they didn't even have the experience of governing a county and a township. It is also that the great man's strength has been exhausted, and he has fallen into the hands of such people. Plum? and others don't know how to govern, they only care about entrapping the hearts of the army, and they always plunder. There were so many people gathered in the land of Sanfu in a hurry, and there were already many people and few places to live in peace, and when they encountered such a ruler again, life became more and more embarrassing, and countless people wanted food and clothing but couldn't.

The roof leak happened to be rainy, the ship was broken and the head wind was encountered - God is also a landlord who hates the poor and loves the rich.

Since May last year, there has been a severe drought in Sanfu, and there has not been a drop of rain for three consecutive months. In this era, the crops are just a stubble, and after this village, there will be no such shop. This is equivalent to a year's crop sown, and the grain is not harvested. Grain is a strategic commodity, and the nearby prefectures have also suffered from drought and locust plagues, and there is no place to buy them if they want to export them -- Zhang Han also strictly forbids the export of grain. When Sanfu rice grain was the most expensive, it cost 500,000 yuan; Doumai also costs 200,000 yuan. To put it bluntly, it is cheaper to eat people than to eat food. And so it is!

Emperor Xian's experience has been bumpy, and he has experienced many hardships, but he is much better than his father and brother, and he has some concept of people's livelihood. However, it doesn't count, and it doesn't matter. Emperor Xian is a puppet, Xun Zhuo or not, Li? , Guo didn't take him seriously at all.

Here's an example.

When Emperor Xian moved into Chang'an, most of the officials and people accompanying him did not have a change of clothes, so Emperor Xian wanted to send the cloth hidden by Shaofu to them. To put it bluntly, they can't be disheveled and dangling in the palace shirtless. But, Lee? But he disagreed, he said: "The officials and the people can just have clothes to wear, why do they have to do it?" ”

Plum? No, there is no way to sacrifice the emperor. However, clothes still have to be made. Emperor Xian sold more than 100 horses, and ordered the great farmer to take out 20,000 pieces of miscellaneous cloth, and give the proceeds from the sale of stables and horses to the civil and military officials and the poor who could not survive on their own. It is said that it is okay for the emperor to give his own money to others. However, Lee? And he didn't agree - the man saw the money, and he said, "My house is not enough!" And they all took them back to their camps.

The emperor ordered people to open Taicang to cook porridge to help the victims, but the rescued people were ultimately a drop in the bucket -- from the high to extravagant food prices, it can be judged that the efforts of the emperor basically had no effect. His ability is so great, Li Guo and the others disagree, even if he has the heart to help, it will be useless. In the spring of the second year of Xingping (195), the people of Sanfu were seven or eight out of ten, and even the ministers and ministers had many people who could not eat their stomachs.

In this way, not to mention the emperor, even the ministers, no one wants to stay here and wait for death. Coincidentally, when Emperor Xian and the ministers were trying to escape from the prison of Sanfu, some people coincidentally had the same thoughts.
