Chapter 238: Concocting the Qingzhou Wang Clan in the same way
Qingzhou Yellow Turban Uprising, in addition to Liu Yu stationed in Qingzhou, there is still Qingzhou Thorn Shi Li Sheng commanding the Qingzhou Thorn History Department, but unfortunately this Qingzhou Thorn History, who has just been in office for a year, was killed by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban after three major battles with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and sacrificed his life for the country.
A large part of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou had revolted with Zhang Jiao three years earlier, and they had already begun to figure out tactics suitable for the Yellow Turban Army.
If three years ago, the Yellow Turbans relied on numbers and desperate fighting methods, now they are gradually using tactics and tactics.
At the beginning, the Yellow Turban Uprising led by Zhang Jiao failed, but countless fires were left in various states and counties, and the vigorous peasant uprisings continued to show a trend of burning the prairie in various places.
Qingzhou Yellow Turbans take Qing and Xu counties as gathering places, and they chant the slogan of "Heaven Makes Up for Equalization", and constantly attack the manors of local wang clans and Haoyou in the locality.
The reason why it is said that the common people are the most difficult to survive in the Han Dynasty is because whether it is food, population, land, or commerce, all the resources of the Eastern Han Dynasty are owned, including mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and they are basically divided.
More than 70% of the resources are in the hands of local families, and the rest is the royal family.
After a round of the Yellow Turban Uprising and a round of "Heaven Makes Up for Equalization", the current Yellow Turban Army knows best who to ask for survival resources.
In Jizhou, the Montenegrin army smashed the local Wangzu Wubao into a thousand holes, which finally prompted the Wangzu Haoyou in Jizhou to change their original intentions, attach themselves to Liu Jian, and take out their vested interests to support Liu Jian's Tuntian, so that Liu Jian changed from passive to active in controlling the locality.
In Jizhou, after the war, all the land was tentatively nationalized, which did not belong to the Tuntian Ke or the family, but was only leased and cultivated in the name of the state, so that the land resources that were finally won from the family after the war would not flow out.
And now, Qingzhou is still the same.
Defeating the Yellow Turban Army and subduing the Yellow Turban soldiers in Qingzhou for Tuntian is just a simple beginning, but before that, it is still necessary to use the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to effectively attack the prominent clans in Qingxu County, weaken the overall strength of the local family and Haoyou, and drag the Libra to his side, so that Liu Jian can regain control of Qingzhou, smoothly install his own forces in the local area, and implement specific Tuntian reforms.
While marching towards Qingzhou, Liu Jian made some adjustments to the structure of his soldiers and horses.
At the beginning, he led 5,000 elite Jizhou troops to Luoyang, and now he has arrived in Qingzhou, and the number has expanded to 10,000.
Among them, 3,000 people were subdued by the Bingzhou army led by Li Ji, and the other more than 2,000 people were Liu Jian's Hanoi Ruishi who surrendered his troops after defeating Ding Yuan.
Ding Yuan's Sanhe Ruishi, Liu Jian handed it over to Liu Bei and asked him to accept it instead of himself.
Liu Bei had just come out of Luoyang, and he still had the official position of captain of Xiyuan, and these two thousand Sanhe Ruishi were under him in the name of the Xiyuan Army, and with Liu Bei's ability and means of convincing people, Liu Jian felt that it should not be a problem for him to take care of these people.
As for the 3,000 sergeants led by Li Ji, Liu Jian was handed over to Gao Shun.
One Gao Shun is a native of Bingzhou, and he is in charge of this Bingzhou army, which can appease his heart as quickly as possible and make this army return to his heart.
The second is ......
"Trapped?"
When he heard Liu Jian say this name, Gao Shun felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy in his heart for some reason, although he didn't know where this intimacy came from.
"Why did the envoy set up this trapping camp?"
Liu Jian solemnly replied to Gao Shun: "My soldiers, the number of more than 20,000, if you add the soldiers and horses of the princes and kings of Jizhou, when more than 40,000 people, but these soldiers and horses, some strong and some weak, the sergeants are also different genera, every strong army, must have an elite ace army as the foundation, and the state soldiers have been in the border counties for a long time, often fighting with the Xiongnu and Xianbei, whether it is experience or bravery, are above the Jizhou army, if you carefully train, will become a strong soldier in my hands." ”
"After arriving in Qingzhou, I will find a city to rest temporarily, Zhong Sui, you hurry up, and train these three thousand trapped camps, I will find a way to gather fine armor for this army in the future, as the so-called invincible attacker, called trapped! Don't let this army live up to its name. ”
When Gao Shun heard this, he was quite excited, not long after he came out of Luoyang, he didn't expect Liu Jian to put such a heavy responsibility on him.
He hesitated and said: "It's just that such an elite man has always been led by the cronies of the superiors, why did the king entrust this heavy responsibility to the last official......
Liu Jian smiled and said, "What you said, wouldn't you be my cronies?" ”
When the words came out, a warm current suddenly surged in Gao Shun's heart.
He bowed to Liu Jian for a long time, and then received the order.
……
After Liu Jian's soldiers and horses arrived in Qingzhou, he did not rush to attack the Yellow Turbans, he set up his soldiers and horses in Licheng, the westernmost part of Qingzhou, and then sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the news of Qingzhou.
First of all, he wanted to know how much the losses suffered in Donglai, Beihai, Qiguo, Le'an, Qiancheng, and Jiaodong were geometric.
After some investigation, Liu Jian got the news that although the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is known as the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, the area of its main strategy is not limited to the realm of Qingzhou at all.
After the Qingzhou Thorn was killed by the Yellow Turban, the soldiers and horses in the hands of the Taishou of the counties of Qingzhou were limited, and they could not be connected into an effective defense at all, and so far there were two Taishou-level characters who had been killed.
And Xuzhou, south of Qingzhou, is currently also under the Yellow Turban Army's relatively strong attack, although Tao Qian, who has just become the history of Xuzhou Thorn, is a ruthless man, but it is also difficult to support alone, Xuzhou Thorn History Department lacks major generals, and Tao Qian has just arrived, and can only barely support.
The reason for this situation is that the current Yellow Turban Army is not the same as it was in history.
The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans under the "Heaven Supplement Equalization", with this slogan, attracted more low-level bitter peasants and launched a crazy attack on the family.
The breached Wu Fort, the oppressed peasants in the Wu Fort, also joined the rebel army.
On the contrary, the people at the bottom were less persecuted by the Yellow Turbans.
The one who really suffered the most became the powerful right of the wang family.
According to the spies' report, the number of the Yellow Turbans is 1.67 million! Of course, most of these people are old, weak, sick and disabled, and the young and strong who can really fight are still in the minority, but even so, this number is very large.
After Liu Jian heard the news, he was very surprised.
Historically, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban had only grown to a million people, and now after investigation, its scale seems to have increased by 50 percent compared to history.
There is only one reason for this, and that is the impact of "heaven compensates for equalization".
However, this matter is not a bad thing for Liu Jian.
Water can carry a boat or capsize a boat, it depends on how you use this water and how you look at it dialectically.
The greater the power of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, although the destructiveness has increased, it also means that their destructive power against the Haoyouwang clan has become stronger.
From another point of view, Liu Jian's human resources that can be accepted have also changed.
These Yellow Turban soldiers were demons when they wreaked havoc in the area, but once they were harvested and cultivated, each of them was a priceless treasure.
After Liu Jian arrived in Licheng, there was no next move, which made the high-ranking families of Jinan and Le'an very anxious, and they hurriedly sent people to ask Liu Jian for help, hoping that he could quickly send troops to rescue him.
Liu Jian was not ambiguous, and directly listed the conditions for the nobles of the two counties who came to him for help.
The conditions are simple...... The Jizhou army came from afar, and the food, grass and military salaries were not enough, and the ordnance was also lacking.
Do you have to take the money?
It is exactly the same as the method he used when he concocted the Jizhou Wang clan.
What makes Liu Jian find interesting is that the reactions of these noble families are almost identical.
Like those Jizhou families at the beginning, everyone was unhappy.
Liu Jian is not in a hurry, they don't give money, food and equipment, then they will play dead.
Anyway, Licheng is only in the border county of Qingzhou, and as long as the Yellow Turban Army has not thought about making peace with the Black Mountain Army to the west for the time being, it will not collide with itself for the time being.
Liu Jian's attitude made the Qingzhou families, who had suffered from the Yellow Turban, very angry.
Do you think that if you don't garrison your troops, our family won't be able to cure you?
The ministers in Luoyang City, but many of them are from the Qingzhou family!
As a result, these Qingzhou families hurriedly handed over the books to Luoyang, so that their relatives in the court could show Liu Jian's current misconduct to the Son of Heaven, and let the court urge him to enter the army.
But the problem is that there are too many things in the city of Luoyang now, and the struggle for power and profit is going on every day, and the people in the court have no time to take care of Liu Jian.
Even if they have time, can Dong Zhuo, who is competing with Yuan Kui for power, allow them to urge Liu Jian in the name of the imperial court?
Impossible.
