Even when Liu Bei has been away from Liangzhou for a long time, there are still many Yizhou students who are educated in Liangzhou Prefecture, and some Yizhou students have become officials and work under Liu Bei.

For example, Qin Mi, Wang Shang, Zhao Wei, Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and others are already Liu Bei's veteran subordinates.

They either stayed in Luoyang to do things by Liu Bei's side, or were arranged by Liu Bei to serve as county commanders in Youzhou and Bingzhou to carry out training, while Gan Ning and Zhang Ren and others had already achieved the rank of captain in the army, and they were considered to be very important representatives of a group of local forces.

They are so reused, so when the slave restriction order was promulgated, for the sake of their own future, they strongly demanded that their family cooperate with Liu Bei to implement the slave restriction order.

Not to mention strictly following the requirements, at least a considerable number must be handed over to Liu Bei, and resolutely not mixed with those dissatisfied guys, so as not to be injured by mistake and delay the future.

Regardless of what their families think, at least for them personally, political interests outweigh economic interests.

Or is it the same sentence, when can't you earn money? But can you be promoted at any time?

There are so many official positions, one radish and one pit, how many people's heads do you have to step on every level of promotion?

In addition to Liu Bei's subordinates, those who studied in Liangzhou Prefecture School had infinite enthusiasm and expectations for the premise of the future, and they were determined not to let some people in their family affect their future because of their selfish desires.

They have followed Liu Bei for a long time, and they know that what Liu Bei cares about most is loyalty, once Liu Bei thinks that you are loyal, he will not hesitate to reward you, and once he thinks that you are not absolutely loyal, then Ling's future is up for debate.

Therefore, they believe that the future is the most important thing, and the slaves are not the most important, and the losses caused by the loss of slaves can be completely compensated by the political level, and the gains will far exceed the losses.

If Liu Bei's wishes are not followed and the political future is lost, the family will lose everything and then be obtained by others.

They don't make a mistake with this choice.

Under the leadership of the officials arranged by Liu Bei, batch after batch of slaves were released, returned from the status of slaves to the status of free people, and re-registered under the arrangement of the local government.

However, those who can make up for it politically are in the minority.

There are a few who can be officials, a few can make up for it, and most people still can't make up for it politically, so except for those who are politically related to Liu Bei, most of the local tyrants who have no political connection with Liu Bei are still dissatisfied.

Because of the traffic blockage, the people of Yizhou have a stronger sense of vigilance against the outside world, and there are fewer people who hold positions in the Luoyang court, so they are less willing to cooperate and more willing to fight.

The confrontation between the local tyrants in Yizhou is relatively fierce even in Shu County and Ba County, which Liu Bei has been operating for a long time, let alone other counties.

However, because the slave restriction order was limited to a few counties in the northern part of Yizhou, there was no turmoil in the southern counties.

Of course, this is not that Liu Bei is merciful and does not do things in the southern counties, but the proportion of foreigners in the southern counties and subject countries of Yizhou is really large, and the local area itself is not very stable, and the local people are not very obedient to the government in the first place, and it is meaningless to do anything to release slaves from those foreigners.

It is the real thing to take the oath of rule directly by military means.

Therefore, Liu Bei's strategy for Yizhou is to first use three points of military and seven points of politics to get rid of Hanzhong County, Guanghan County, Shu County, Ba County and Qianwei County in the north of Yizhou, and then use three points of politics and seven points of military to get rid of the south of Yizhou.

At present, we still focus on the northern part of Yizhou, first completely take the northern part of Yizhou into our hands, and control the anointed land of the Chengdu Plain.

For this reason, Liu Bei knew that Liu Sheng's Shence army stationed in Ba County was not enough, so he dispatched Cao Ren to lead the Yingyang army into Shu in advance, so that it could be stationed in Shu County, and control the basic situation in Shu County with the cooperation of Shu County's Taishou Gao Yuan.

At the very least, Liu Bei could not accept that Shu County was unable to produce more paper because of the turmoil.

To be precise, Yizhou experienced a small wave of turmoil when it liquidated the modern literary school and its servant forces, but it was not greatly affected.

The biggest turmoil in the Jian'an period was the previous liquidation of the Zhang family in Chengdu, Shu County.

And this time, the government needs to face the resistance of ordinary powerful families, large and small.

They were reluctant to hand over their slaves, believing that their interests had been seriously harmed, and the Shu people, who had not felt Liu Bei's power for a long time, even mobilized slaves on a large scale to form an army against the power of the government.

In the face of these people, Gao Wei, a typical scholar with average military ability, was once in a hurry and anxious, and it was quite difficult to deal with these situations.

Different from Ba County, Ba County implemented a very strong rule in Ba County because of the existence of the Shence Army and the special relationship between the people and Liu Bei, and the local wealthy families in Ba County were willing to cooperate with Liu Bei's actions led by the Gan family, so although the scale and strength of the rebels were not small, the Ba County official had enough strength to suppress them.

Liu Sheng, as Liu Bei's clan general, is equivalent to Liu Bei's spokesman in the eyes of the Ba County people, and as soon as he gave an order, the people immediately organized a force of several thousand people, and together with Liu Sheng's headquarters, they put down the rebellion everywhere in Ba County and destroyed the clan.

According to the topography of Ba County, many families were able to defend some of the more dangerous terrain, which was slightly different from the situation in the plains, and it was more difficult for the army to attack.

However, with the help of the armed forces who were good at mountain warfare, the rebellion in Ba County was quickly suppressed, and more than 70 local families who organized a rebellion were wiped out as a whole, and the slave restriction order in Ba County was well implemented.

By mid-to-early April, the situation in Ba County had stabilized, and by early May, more than 80,000 slaves had been released from Ba County, and basically all that should have been dealt with had been disposed of.

In Shu County, there were more people who resisted, and even affected the safety of Chengdu City for a time.

The team sent by Gao Wei to enforce the slave restriction order was defeated by the local tyrants of Shu County, although they did not raise the banner of rebellion, but they still aggressively pulled the combined army to come to Gao Wei outside the city of Chengdu to ask for an explanation.

It's almost a direct siege.

In addition, Gao Wei's paper mill in the northwest of Chengdu City was besieged by opponents, more than a dozen houses were destroyed, and more than 20 paper craftsmen were killed, as a deterrent to Gao Wei.

Gao Wei is more concerned about cultural undertakings, and politically and militarily, Gao Wei is not strong and is used to solving problems through negotiation, so in the face of strong countermeasures from major tyrant families, Gao Wei is a little out of order.

At that time, as the spokesperson of the imperial court, Yizhou Thorn Shi Liang Hu was sick, and Gao Wei had no political helper, so Gao Wei failed to control the situation well.

Before Cao Ren arrived with the Eagle Yang Army, the situation in Shu County had not been good, and the rebels were arrogant, threatening to let the people who implemented the slave restriction order know what stupid things they had done.

That is, they have not yet made up their minds to really tear their faces against the court, and they still have to show their muscles to the court, let the court compromise, and return to the past ecological environment.

They arrogantly besieged the city of Chengdu and sent a message to the city, asking Gao Wei to come out to see them in person and talk to them about the matter, otherwise they would break through the city and make Gao Wei pay the price.

These local tyrants don't seem to realize what they're doing.

Gao Wei also spent more than ten days in worry, which was very tormenting.

However, when Cao Ren led the Yingyang army into Shu in April of the third year of Jian'an, the situation changed.
