Chapter 71 The Era of Great Annexation

The Yangzhou Army has been trained and reorganized, and people are very stable and harmonious with each other. Chen Lan and Qiao Rui are also very kind. Uploaded by netizens

The army was Liao Hua, Huang Zhong, Jia Xu and others, the political affairs were Chen Qun and Du Xi Xun You, the internal affairs were controlled by Hua Xin, and Huangfu Song was still unemployed.

For the next period of time, Zhang Yang lived a comfortable and leisurely life. He looked at O's practice every day and coordinated the overall situation. At the same time, he asked Shadow and Zheng Bing and Qin Yan to convey the news from each state in a timely manner. When he encountered trouble, he would call the advisers to hold a meeting to discuss, make a decision, and then respond.

Look, Yanzhou and Qingzhou have encountered a severe drought like Xuzhou. Coupled with the previous and extremely large blizzards, the whole country has almost been harvested.

The river is dry and the well water reaches the bottom. It is originally a place with less water in the north, which makes it even worse.

If there is a long period of lack of water, a large number of livestock will die of thirst, and people will be dehydrated and sluggish, and even death will occur.

In addition to the riots, the people who were short of water and food had to move south with their families. They fled to Xuzhou, which was regarded as a paradise, and then Jingzhou in the south.

The large number of refugees moved south and were killed by the Yellow Turbans. The governor of the governor of Qingzhou and Yanzhou were all in their own way, so they naturally had no choice but to care about the stay and departure of some untouchables.

These refugees are still good people now, but once Russia has been afraid of heaven and earth for a long time, and with the intentional people inciting the scoundrel, these people will turn into Yellow Turbans into civilians, which will harm all directions, which is very terrible.

Therefore, these people must quickly digest, absorb and deal with it, and kill the harm in the cradle. Moreover, this is a precious and cheap labor force.

The great tribes in Xia Pi completed a huge project by using labor-for-relief, which was very cost-effective.

Moreover, after so many years of operation, the population of all states in the world has dropped sharply. What to fight in war is money and food, talents, and more importantly, the population and troops are fighting. The larger the population base, the faster and more convenient it will be to supplement the losses of the war, and the longer the battle will be.

For example, in real history, after three parts of the world, the Wei Kingdom occupied most of the northern territory and also had 70% of the world's population.

The Eastern Wu mainly relied on the terrain of the fe and defended the Yangtze River line. Zhuge Liang, the Shu Kingdom, used attack as the defense and conquered every year.

Shu Kingdom also achieved some considerable military victories, but due to the huge population and military advantage of Wei Kingdom, which had an absolute advantage, it lost 100,000 yuan. For example, it could attract 100,000 new men to supplement it in one month.

Yizhou in Shu Kingdom is far from being economically developed and densely populated like the later Tianfu Kingdom, but is full of desolate places for barbarians. Once a hundred thousand strong men are lost, it will be a damaging matter, which is enough to make every family in a large area lose their sons and husbands.

Therefore, after Zhuge Liang failed to attack Wei, he had to wait several years. When the people calmed down and the training of food, grass and soldiers was completed, they could attack Wei again. Compared with the Wei State's frequent allocation of 100,000 people, Shu State was much poorer.

In a nutshell, population is important, and we try our best to attract refugees in various states. And those who are still hesitating to come or not, and those who are not planning to come, must find ways to mobilize and mobilize them to move over.

When the north is finished fighting, the pattern will be clear. Whether it is Yuan Shao or Cao, Zhang Yang will surprise them.

Let them unify the north and occupy the vast land of four or five prefectures, and only then did they find that there were thousands of miles of people.

No one, no matter how big the land is, no one is planted, it is wasteland, there will be no enough soldiers, and the troops will go hungry.

This move is called "Food and Fireworks from the Cauldron". No one, I see how you fight this battle!

Zhang Yang was secretly proud of himself and instructed Chen Deng to be people-oriented and to spend a lot of money to complete it.

Then Zao Zhi, Du Yan and Chen Deng went to Xia Pi together to assist Chen Deng in relocating and dealing with the increasingly heavy things in Xia Pi.

News from Cao also came from that after recruiting 20,000 new troops in Yanzhou, he and Bao Xin led nearly 30,000 troops to Qingzhou. Sima Chengyu from other departments stayed behind to stabilize the rear and ensured the supply of food and grass.

Zhang Ling'er asked Guan Hai to invade Yuan Shao's Jizhou. After a war, he failed and caught Cao and his army to attack.

Zhang Ling'er's subordinates were also grass-roots generals who had fought many tough battles. In addition, her wise commander, she defeated five times in seven battles, and Cao Bao Xin fought very hard.

Moreover, in an ambush planned by Cao, the Yellow Turban generals were seen through, and Bao Xin was killed by arrows. Cao was extremely sad and accepted Bao Xin's instructions before his death, took charge of his army and horses, and the general Yu Jin also surrendered to Cao.

In the same place, the soldiers were sad and sad. Cao commanded the army and horses to fight to the death and besieged the city where Zhang Ling'er was. Liantian's battles were severely injured, but they never gave up. In the end, the city was captured, and Zhang Ling'er took his personal soldiers out of the city to escape, and was chased by Cao's army, and the Yellow Turbans were defeated under the city.

In addition, Qingzhou was already scorched earth at this time, and there was no grain, no water, so many yellow turrets left here almost caused their own destruction.

So Zhang Ling'er immediately decided to go south and go to Xuzhou to eat big eaters!

So Cao occupied Qingzhou, and his territory was connected to Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan on land, and became neighbors with Gongsun Du. Because Gongsun Du had sent a ship to travel across the Bohai Sea, he went south from the Liaodong Peninsula of Korea to Qingzhou and expanded his territory. The coastal coastal coasts are now the territory of Gongsun Du, the overseas emperor.

Cao suddenly owned the land of the two states and was very happy. However, the chassis was large, but he wanted no one to ask for food, no soldiers, and the occupied Qingzhou was almost ruined. Cao sighed: God is so unto me, Cao!

The civil servant group of Gongsun Zan of Youzhou and Liu Yu's civil servant group have very different ways of dealing with minorities such as Wuhuan. One should kill all of them and the other should influence the rule, and then digest and absorb them, and finally become Han people and eliminate the barbarians.

Liu Yu had a high personal character and rest, firm will, great personality charm, fair and humble towards people and things. In addition, he was an authentic Han clan relative and the sages of the Han Dynasty, and the people under his rule respected him very much, and foreign races regarded him as his father and elder. Before Gongsun Zan became famous, the ethnic minority issues in Youzhou were not a problem. When the Yellow Turban Rebellion swept over Youzhou, Liu Bei Zhuo County raised an army to help suppress the attack, and the Xianbei people in Wuhuan also accepted Liu Yu's call to lead the army to suppress him.

Gongsun Zan is a hardcore hawk who speaks with the knife in his hand. Liu Yu is a dove, gentle and polite.

Gongsun Zan is indeed very good at fighting, but he is not polite to the alien races who were originally surrendered to the rule of Liu Yu's Han Dynasty. If they don't come to provoke Gongsun Zan, they will go to them, and they will have to fight if they don't fight. The Wuhuan people are very angry, and Liu Yu and the civil servant group are also very angry, scolding Gongsun Zan for making trouble because they are nothing to do, and are unwilling to let go if they don't destroy Youzhou!

Gongsun Zan sneered: "If you are not my race, your heart will be different. Now they surrender because they are still very weak. When something goes wrong with us Han people, they will eat our masters mercilessly like wolves. This truth has been traveling back and forth for thousands of years, but you have never learned the lesson and repeated the same mistakes!"

Liu Yu was so angry that he vomited blood: "The son is not taught! I know that it is difficult to last forever, so I advocated intermarriage. All the children learned Chinese characters and recited Confucian classics, wore Han robes and spoke Chinese language. In this way, at most, there were no barbarians in this world, but I was a Han family. Who remembers whether their ancestors were Wuhuan or Xianbei? Compared to the relentless hatred fighting, what was wrong with me doing this!"

"Look, because of you, there are so many self-righteous nerds, in just a hundred years, these Hu people will sweep over the fertile land of the Central Plains, slaughter our Han people, and burn down our Han ancestral temples. That will be the end of my Han family!" Gongsun Zan roared angrily.

Then the two of them went against each other with their own opinions and practices.

Half a month ago, Yuan Shao suddenly said that if his son was held hostage by the remnants of Xiliang today, his power would become the leader of the thief, his center was abandoned, and the princes in the world were dispersed, and he proposed to support Liu Yu as the emperor.

Cao o remained silent, Gongsun Du responded from afar, Tao Qian disagreed, and Yuan Shu also opposed it. When the Wuhuan people heard that Liu Yu was going to be promoted to the emperor, they happily sent someone to send gifts to congratulate him.

Liu Yu refused in grief and anger, and would rather die than betray the Han Dynasty. Everyone could do anything about it, and the farce ended hastily.

Gongsun Zan took the opportunity to seize the opportunity and spread it everywhere, saying that Liu Yu had actually wanted to be the emperor for a long time, and refusal was just a trick of retreating, first of all, a moral and noble trick.

Liu Yu was furious and sent someone to scold Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan was furious and beheaded the envoy and sent the head to Liu Yu back.

Liu Yu was furious, and at this time he didn't say that Gongsun Zan had signs of indiscriminate plots, as if he wanted to seize power against Liu Yu, and he occupied Youzhou alone to establish himself. Liu Yu was shocked, so he decided to take the initiative and subdue Gongsun Zan.

Liu Yu himself gathered 100,000 people to attack Gongsun Zan. Before leaving, Cheng Xu dissuaded him and was beheaded by Liu Yu. Liu Yu told the soldiers: "Don't hurt too much, just kill Gongsun Zan one." Liu Yu's subordinates were engaged in Gongsun Ji, who was treated well by Gongsun Zan because of the same surname. They ran to Gongsun Zan at night to report Liu Yu's plan. At that time, Gongsun Zan's subordinates were all scattered outside, and Gongsun Zan felt defeated and wanted to escape.

As a result, Liu Yu's soldiers were not good at fighting, and loved the houses of the people, and ordered that the city not be burned, but could not be captured for a while. Gongsun Zan then summoned hundreds of JNG warriors, set fire with the wind, and took advantage of the situation to raid. Liu Yu was defeated and fled north to Juyong County. Gongsun Zan pursued him, and the city was trapped for three days, and captured Liu Yu, but still asked him to act as a puppet to manage state affairs.

Just as Chang'an Zhengfu sent an envoy Duan Xun to increase Liu Yu's fiefdom and let him take charge of the affairs of the six northern states. Gongsun Zan took the opportunity to become a former general, and was granted the title of Yihou, and was appointed as the governor of You, Qing and Ji. Gongsun Zan also falsely accused Liu Yu of conspiring with Yuan Shao to become emperor, and forced the envoy Duan Xun to behead Liu Yu and sent his head to Kyoto. Halfway through the way, he was kidnapped and buried by Liu Yu's former official Wei Dun. Liu Yu was very popular in the north, and the people cried bitterly after his death.

After Liu Yu's death, many of his subordinates not only refused to surrender, but also cursed Gongsun Zan and was killed.

Liu Yu's son Liu He escaped to the territory of the Wuhuan people in the north under the protection of Xianyu Yinhe Xianyufu, and was welcomed by the Wuhuan people. The Xianbei people of Wuhuan all took the banner of revenge for Liu Yu to attack Gongsun Zan, but they were all defeated by Gongsun Zan. Liu He continued to flee north, waiting for an opportunity.

Gongsun Zan himself regarded himself as the master of the six northern states, and the commander of the order was very arrogant. Yuan Shao and Cao were both polite, but he could never follow him.

Seeing that there was no opposition in Youzhou, Gongsun Zan immediately sent troops to attack Jizhou. Chunyu Qiong was defeated by Yan Gang. Yuan Shao sent someone to seek peace. Gongsun Zan blackmailed some treasures before he was willing to retreat.

Yuan Shao did this, firstly, he was tired of fighting with the Yellow Turbans. Secondly, the alien race in the north invaded his territory and fought hard. In addition, he wanted to deliberately show weakness and make Gongsun Zan think he was the strongest.

If you want the enemy to perish, let him go crazy first.

At the same time, Yuan Shu also began to plan to attack Liu Yao and completely annex Yangzhou.
