Chapter 268: Surrender
Fangtou.
A recital goes for three or four days, and when it comes back, it takes three or four days, and it takes four or five days to get tangled in the middle.
Li Yue couldn't wait to pull it like this.
"Your Majesty moved more than 100,000 people into the country, and there is a shortage of food in the city, and one or two gold can only be exchanged for three buckets of millet, and the people are hungry......
Li Yue read the secret letter, and had mixed feelings in his heart, Ran Min killed Hu and the powerful like killing chickens and sheep, destroying the whole family and the three tribes at every turn, but he always had a trace of kindness to the people.
Although it is to win people's hearts, but there are so many forces in the world, how many people are so popular?
Especially when he himself is short of food, everyone is complicated.
This may also be the reason why Ran Wei suffered the defeat of Xiangguo and has not yet fallen apart.
Of course, 500,000 stone of grain must not be given, otherwise he will be full of food and drink, and as soon as he wipes his mouth, he will really kill with a knife.
But they can't help, and when people are hungry, they lose their minds.
When Shi Le broke through Xiangyang, there was a sweep of Jianghan, Zhang Bin persuaded him to go north to Jizhou, Shi Le used his strategy, all the way to the north, no food, nothing to plunder, cannibalism for military food, all the way from Jianghuai to Hebei......
I still saw a little bit of the Shi family's legacy from Ran Min, which forced him to be anxious, his eyes were red, and he rushed straight to Yanzhou......
Li Yue sent 10,000 stone grains, neither to feed him nor to starve to death.
also let Chang Wei cry on the table, "Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, Zhuhu has been hit hard, and the merit is in China, but Yanzhou has continuous natural disasters and man-made disasters, there are floods in the front, the fields are destroyed, there are epidemics in the back, ten rooms and nine empty, successive droughts, no harvest, the former has 300,000 stones, and the Yanzhou treasury is empty...... Your Majesty is mighty, conquering Xiangguo, and intimidating the world, at this time, you should persuade the farmers to pacify the Quartet, and do not raise swords and soldiers, thinking that it is a long-term plan ......"
The watch was sent to Yecheng together with 10,000 stone of grain.
This time Ran Min listened, and of course, he had no choice.
Even if he wanted to attack Fangtou, there was not so much food, and it was one thing whether the corporal under his command was willing to obey the order.
No matter how chaotic the world is, as long as there are things planted in the ground, there is still a vitality.
At the request of Shang Shuling Liu Qun, Li Yue supported some seeds, ploughing cattle, and farm tools.
The people of Yecheng simply ran directly to Fangtou and exchanged the weapons and armor in their hands for food, these things were already in tatters, in fact, they couldn't exchange much things, but Li Yue still gave them the grain of the distant dynasty.
Later, gradually Wei troops came over to exchange food.
Even with the 10,000 stone of grain sent by Li Yue, the famine in Yecheng reached a very severe level.
In the entire Ran Wei, I am afraid that the only people who are hostile to Li Yue are Ran Min and a few close ministers around him.
Relations between the two sides gradually eased.
Qingyan Erzhou also began large-scale farming, with Zhou Qian in charge of Yanzhou and Cui Jin in charge of Qingzhou.
Jia Jian also persuaded farmers in Bohai, and when he went down with a word, the major heroes in Bohai were obedient and obedient, saving a lot of trouble.
With Li Yue's efforts, the banks of the river gradually settled down, and there were busy figures everywhere for farming.
The fields around Yecheng were also sown by the people of Wei.
Ran Min temporarily stopped, and when Li Yue was about to lead the army back to Chenliu to rest, an army of 30,000 people moved south from the northeast towards Qinghe County.
It was none other than Shi Kun, the remnant of Zhao Zhao.
After Liu Xian killed Shi You, he was quickly defeated.
After Ran Min annexed Xiangguo, there was a shortage of food in the country and he was unable to go on an expedition.
The Qinghe Cui clan also quickly sent a warning letter, Shi Kun and Yao Yizhong's combined forces, sixty or seventy thousand people, and Pingyuan County to the east of Qinghe County, entrenched in Duan Qin, who claimed to be Emperor Zhao.
If these three forces are combined, it will be not trivial, and the strength of the army is not under Yanzhou.
Duan Qin's 10,000 people can be ignored, but Shi Kun and Yao Yizhong defeated Ran Min in Xiangguo at the beginning, and their combat power is not weak.
After such a long time, Yao Yizhong has almost recovered.
"Shi Kun meets Yao Yizhong, his intention should be in Qingzhou!" Chang Wei immediately discovered their intentions.
Ran Min conquered Xiangguo, and Yao Yizhong and Shi Kun both became lost dogs.
And the lost dog is crazier than the domestic dog.
The situation on both sides of the river is basically clear, Zhao Zhao is destroyed, Liu Xian is defeated, and then Murong himself ends.
There is no place for them in Hebei, so going south to Qingzhou is the only option.
Li Yue sighed in his heart, the banks of the Yellow River are really a place of a hundred battles, and they will not stop for a moment, and it is so difficult to fight for even a year's development time.
After Fu Shi entered the customs, it was smooth sailing, and there was no one around who could fight, and it was getting stronger day by day.
At present, Qingzhou is spring ploughing, and the twenty or thirty thousand southern troops in the hands of Cui Jin and Bo Wu will definitely be difficult to resist these two mad dogs.
"We must not let the flames of war burn to Qingzhou!" Li Yue made up his mind.
The territory is large, and I suddenly find that the troops in my hands are stretched.
Liu Xian, Shi Kun, and Murong Jun had an army of 100,000 at every turn, but the Heiyun Army only had 30,000 regular troops, and they had to defend the important towns on both sides of the Yellow River.
Fangtou and Liyang both need to be heavily garrisoned.
Chang Wei was also aware of this problem, "There are tens of thousands of Duan clan soldiers in Fangtou City, why don't the governors cut the old and weak and take their elite?" ”
Li Yue said: "These people ...... I'm afraid it's hard for me to use. ”
"His family members are all in Fangtou, if one person rebels, the whole family will sit together, and this battle can be used as a precursor to consume the strength of the Duan clan." Chang Wei also has a black belly.
Naturally, there are risks, and there are many people who are rich in livestock in this era, regardless of the life or death of their families.
Shi Hu also tortured and killed his own son and grandson.
"Yes!" Li Yue quickly made up his mind.
Duan Shi has always been able to fight well, and Duan Zhen relied on Fangtou City to resist Li Yue and Ran Min's joint attack for half a year, which shows the strength of his Duan clan.
You don't need to train, you're a strong army.
There are definitely risks.
But those who want to rebel will rebel sooner or later, and they can't be stopped, so it's better to take this opportunity to test it.
Li Yue then summoned Duan Zhen and called Fan Lu by the way.
"Meet the Governor!" The two gave up.
Fan Lu, Li Yue was half relieved, this person was a pure martial artist, and he didn't have so much thought.
However, Duan Zhen's mind was relatively deep.
"Summoning the two of you today, there is a matter of trust, Zhao Yu Shi Kun went south, met Yao Yizhong, and wanted to seek my Qingzhou, can the two of you be willing to serve?" Li Yue didn't bend around and was open and honest.
"The grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, and the last general is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" Fan Lu agreed without thinking about it.
Duan Zhen looked at Li Yue in a daze, "Can the governor be trusted?" ”
During this time, the Duan clan was able to farm the fields, and the people who could not farm repaired the city and built houses, which was quite obedient.
"Then it depends on whether you believe me or not, the Black Cloud Army!" Li Yue had something to say.
Duan Zhen closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes and said, "How will Du Du Ta treat my Duan clan on the day?" ”
"Looking at both sides of the river, is there still a place for your Duan clan?" Li Yue stared at his face and said.
