11. Liu Hong, your dad called you home for dinner
Huangfu Song, who was experienced and had a thorough understanding of the battlefield situation, won. Not only was the siege of Chencang lifted, but he also successfully killed the kingdom who fled in panic. However, the anxious and irritable Gongsun Zan was defeated. Not only did he suffer heavy losses, but he was now trapped in Liaoxi County.
Guanzicheng has run out of ammunition and food, the entire army is on the verge of collapse, and even the hope of breaking out has been completely lost.
If Gongsun Zan dies, then the whole Youzhou will be afraid of the army of Erzhang and Wuwan people. It is precisely because of this consideration that Liu Yu, the new shepherd of Youzhou, finally showed his "fangs".
Liu Yu was not a general who was good at fighting, nor did he think he had this talent. However, Liu Yu, who had no general talent, could be called a perfect being in other aspects - he was knowledgeable and capable.
He is an elegant man, generous to others, and he has a good reputation
His beautiful appearance and magnetic voice make everyone who meets him feel like they are in a spring breeze and easily develop a great impression of him. The most important thing is that Liu Yu is not a hypocrite, so this favorable impression will only
Enhance without diminishing.
Because Youzhou was often invaded by foreign tribes, it was quite poor and needed support. Hebei and Hebei Provinces were looking to subsidize official expenses. However, the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion caused transportation to be cut off and money could not be allocated. After careful consideration, Liu Yu decided to open the border to Shanggu.
The city promotes border trade with foreign ethnic groups, and at the same time uses the rich resources of Yuyang County to boil the sea into salt and cast mountains into iron to obtain a large amount of income.
Liu Yu's excellent internal affairs ability is also reflected in his seeing that after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, a large number of people from the Central Plains were displaced and became poor but troublesome refugees, so he took advantage of Youzhou's relatively stable situation and relatively empty land.
, successfully caused more than one million refugees from Qingzhou and Xuzhou to flee to Youzhou and live and work in peace and contentment, which led to the steady improvement of Youzhou's strength.
The reason why Liu Yu was able to reverse the dilemma of Youzhou being invaded by foreign tribes and attract a large number of immigrants was because of the high prestige he enjoyed among the Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, Haoqi and other ethnic groups and tribes. His generosity and justice
During his administration, all ethnic groups were able to pay tribute on time and did not dare to intrude. At the same time, after the border markets were opened, the foreign ethnic groups whose living standards improved even more regarded them as their reborn parents.
Of course, Liu Yu is not a good old man who only knows how to spread money, so the result is that Gongsun Zan, who has a very murderous spirit, can serve under Liu Yu. Gongsun Zan plays the bad side, and Liu Yu plays the white side. Although the two people have ideals,
Different, but under Liu Yu's mobilization, he was often able to coordinate perfectly, preventing some ambitious people from acting rashly.
Because of this background, seeing that most of Youzhou's military strength was lost by Gongsun Zan, Youzhou will fall into the dilemma of empty troops. Even though Liu Yu, who was in a bad situation, could not raise a gun and mount a horse, he was able to achieve the highest level of military art.
realm.
Conquer the enemy's army without fighting!
Liu Yu took advantage of its high prestige among the foreign tribes to express his disappointment to the Wuwan people who followed the rebellion, and at the same time expressed his assurance that as long as they returned to their own tribe, they would forget the past.
Liu Yu opened his mouth and said that he was more beautiful than Li Shushi in Xihe. The rebels who followed Zhang Chun were suddenly confused. For them, the main reason for following Zhang Chun in the rebellion was just to see the usually arrogant Gongsun Zan being disobedient.
They wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge, but they were somewhat uneasy in their hearts. Now that Gongsun Zan had suffered a loss, Liu Yuyou, whom they admired, spoke to ensure their safety. This seemed to be their most ideal result.
As for claiming kingship or separatist power, maybe other than Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, as long as Liu Yu is still Youzhou Mu, no one else will have such an idea - anyway, following Liu Yu can eat meat and drink soup, it is safe and unnecessary
Why bother?
Therefore, even Qiu Liju, the most ambitious leader of Karasuma, secretly expressed his willingness to surrender to Liu Yu.
From this we can see how high Liu Yu's reputation was in Youzhou, and at the same time, we can also know how much Gongsun Zan, who later killed Liu Yu, was hated by the people of Youzhou. Of course, another reason is that Gongsun Zan himself has a first-rate ability to ridicule.
In fact, from the moment Liu Yu took action, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion had come to an end. Not to mention that Liu Yu also issued a reward, comparing the heads of Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju to those of the Qiang tycoons.
, each one is worth a lot of money. It can be said that as long as you get one, you will have enough money to buy land in Youzhou, and for the rest of your life, you will work hard to develop in the direction of a small tycoon under the aura of Liu Yu.
As a result, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju found helplessly that overnight, he seemed to have no one he could trust anymore.
The situation in Youzhou is gradually showing signs of light, and the situation across the country seems to be clearing away the clouds and seeing the blue sky.
But just at this moment, something happened in Luoyang, which cast a shadow over this wonderful situation.
Liu Hong, the supreme ruler of the Han Empire, suddenly fainted.
In fact, Liu Hong, the most emperor, has been in a pretty good mood recently, although he is still a little weak physically.
Why?
Because the general He Jin, who was becoming more and more unwilling to be manipulated, had to restrain his momentum and return to the script that Liu Hong had planned due to Liu Hong's little plan. Those courtiers who were ready to make moves also had to temporarily stop their activities and keep a low profile.
What did Liu Hong do again that made people angry? Hey, why did I say "again"? Forget it, never mind.
It turned out that in August of the fifth year of Zhongping, the general proposed and Liu Hong approved the Luoyang New Army - the Eighth School of Xiyuan.
The establishment of the Eighth School of Xiyuan was mainly due to two reasons. On the one hand, due to the turmoil and disasters in various places, refugees from all over the country continued to pour into Henan. Although the court used various methods to try to transfer the refugees, unfortunately, they were often just in front of them.
Send away a batch,
A new batch will come on the back foot, and if the operation is not done properly, the batch on the front foot will return soon, so the shadow of refugees can be seen everywhere in Henan. If the soldiers of the Northern Army were not strong enough,
, I'm afraid there has been trouble a long time ago.
The second reason comes from our general He Jin.
He Jin's life has not been easy recently, really very difficult. Although he is the uncle of the prince and the general of the Han Empire, in a royal society, especially in this society where the royal power is still very stable, if he is not careful, he will be killed.
It will make you go from being under one person and above ten thousand people to being a prisoner under ten thousand people and being despised by ten thousand people, so He Jin has always been very cautious in his heart.
On the premise of being loyal to the emperor, help his sister, help his family establish status and reputation, and finally take advantage of this rare opportunity to develop into a first-class local powerful, then hide one's capabilities, bide one's time, accumulate strength, actively practice internal skills, and strive for the opportunity to become
One of the most prominent political families in the Han Empire. This was He Jin's dream.
But all these efforts and dreams have a prerequisite, that is, the prince with the blood of their He family can become the master of Yongle Palace, otherwise everything is empty talk, because the Han Dynasty has always been in a conflicting mood towards the royal family - there is no
Well, I'm afraid that my foreign surname will take away the Liu family's power. But take it seriously, these guys with legal inheritance rights are definitely the most worrying.
If these are just speculations, then the Rebellion of the Seven Kings is the most obvious explanation.
Therefore, although the princes of the Han Dynasty actually lived a worry-free life, the closer they were to the emperor, the more they were on guard.
It is for this goal that He Jin helped his sister kill the more favored Wang Meiren; it is for this goal that he constantly contacted the children of the aristocratic family, hoping to gain their support; for the same reason, He Jin
Jin plans to abandon the Northern Army, which has been embedded with countless factions, and form a Luoyang city defense force that will obey his orders.
It's a pity that no matter how cunning you are, you can't defeat Han Emperor Liu Hong who has been immersed in political struggles since he was a child.
The new army of Xiyuan was established, and the eight captains who commanded this new army were basically from aristocratic families. It seemed that He Jin's goal was achieved. But who would have thought that the immediate boss of the eight captains of Xiyuan was
Jian Shuo, the eunuch whom Liu Hong favored.
Well, after working so hard for so long, he ended up taking advantage of a guy from the eunuch camp who had become his mortal enemy. He Jin really felt like a loser. And someone who had the same feeling as him was our Yuan Shao.
There is no way, who told him to be so close to He Jin, and he is also a position of great power in the Gyeonggi area like Sili Xiaowei. You must know that the all-powerful eunuch Wang Fu fell into the trap of Sili Xiaowei at that time.
In order to get Yang Qiu, Cao Jie instigated Liu Hong to expose Yang Qiu.
He was promoted and demoted to the position of Weiwei before he could take action. So in order to cut off He Jin's wings, Yuan Shao naturally could no longer stay in the position of Sili Colonel and gave him the false title of Tiger and Lieutenant General.
, just like his younger brother Yuan Shu, although it sounds good, he has no one under his command.
Although joining the Xiyuan Army seems to have another opportunity to take control of the military, the problem is that there is an annoying Shangguan above his head. What's more, Yuan Shao originally thought that the commander of the Xiyuan Army, the captain of the Xiyuan Army, should be himself.
That's right.
The mastermind behind all this is of course our Liu Hong children's shoes. Who is He Jin, his sister and his unrelated brother?
Dare to attack the prince.
Knowing that several of Liu Hong's children had died due to various "accidents", he looked at the people running towards him and found that none of the two children was over sixteen years old, and the eldest one was a coward.
It's an easy object to control.
Yes, Liu Hong has already thought about changing the prince, because if He becomes the empress dowager, Liu Hong really doesn't know what the country he left behind will become like, and whether He Jin will become another Liang Ji.
.
He was very scared.
However, after this suppression, He Jin has obviously restrained himself a lot. Even the vicious comments made by the He woman recently about her have been reduced a lot. Maybe his ears can be clean for a while.
Liu Hong, who was thinking like this, was of course in a very good mood. The result of his good mood was that he had a good waist, good legs, and a great body, and his food tasted delicious. It seemed that he had returned to the glory days of seven times a night, as if he was swimming naked in the palace overnight.
The embarrassment of not being able to lift it had completely left him.
So, Liu Hong, who was shouting in his heart, "Beauties, I, Liu Hong, am back again," just took off his children's shoes.
In the haziness, he saw his kind biological father waving to him cordially. Behind his father was a table of reunion dinner with a strong atmosphere of home. It was so tempting and unbearable.
Stay and go to...
