Chapter 3070 Awkward people taking sides, unclear Yongliang Prefecture
Fei Qian walked back not very fast.
The reason why I can't walk fast is actually very simple. It's hard to come to the land of Hexi, why should I bring some local products?
The local specialty of Hexi is full of the smell of blood.
This time, the soldiers and horses Fei Qian mobilized to go to the Western Regions were basically elites, and in the Western Regions, they also absorbed the essence of some Hu people and Qiang people. The essence of these Hu people and Qiang people can be found in all ethnic groups, and some of them have
Some of them are the elites of the countries in the Western Regions that have been destroyed. These barbarians have been living on horseback since they were very young. They even have deformed bow legs in their lower limbs. It is indeed unsightly to walk on the ground, but on horseback.
It's like being able to grow up with a war horse. Almost everyone has seen blood. The teenagers have probably killed more people than the bandits in their thirties and forties in Han Dynasty!
In order for these barbarian, Qiang and Semu people from tribal groups to transform from mercenary mode into cavalry under Fei Qian, there must be a process. A process of mutual friction and cooperation.
After all, the first time always involves blood...
There are about 15,000 cavalry, basically two-horse configuration, plus thousands of mules, horses and pack horses, the cavalry camps constructed are endless, almost congesting the entire Hexi Passage!
After being stationed, the entire cavalry camp was like a moving city, with army blacksmith shops, grocery stores, etc. spread out between the camps.
Most cavalry are equipped with iron armor and weapons, and they always need to be repaired on a daily basis.
Unless these armors are too damaged during the battle, they can be replaced by the quartermaster. Otherwise, most of them are maintained by themselves and will stay with the soldiers for a lifetime. When the soldiers retire, they can be taken back as family heirlooms.
After all, metals are very valuable these days, especially refined steel.
Repairing soldiers' armor? The blacksmith shop in the army will be cheaper than the blacksmith shops in other places, but it also costs money. Therefore, most soldiers will maintain their soldiers' armor by themselves. Only for some problems that they cannot handle themselves,
Then he would take it to the military blacksmith shop to repair it.
The tinkling sound of iron seems to have become a regular soundtrack to transactions in nearby grocery stores.
Fei Qian's soldiers are paid enough and they are not in arrears, so in addition to general repairs, there are always some people who like some special weapons and will go to the blacksmith shop to customize them. There are also some soldiers, especially the Hu and Qiang people.
, most of the money was spent on buying spirits and frosting. These two items are almost the most popular commodities in the army, and in some cases are even as common as coins.
In fact, everyone has battlefield syndrome to a greater or lesser extent, and alcohol that anesthetizes the nerves and sugar that soothes the nerves are naturally Feiqian’s most profitable products. On the one hand, they are beneficial to economic operations, and on the other hand, they are also beneficial to stabilizing the soldiers.
Emotions, so in the process of Feiqian's march, these shops for logistical support have almost become a necessity.
The current living standards of the Han people are almost higher than those of the surrounding Hu and Qiang people, especially some of the eating methods and improved cooking methods that Fei "researched" after his stay in Guanzhong.
It lured a large number of soldiers, both Han and Hu people were drooling...
Thanks to Defei Qian who knows how to spend money and is willing to spend money.
This is not the first time we have seen such a large cavalry in the land of Hexi. After all, Dong Zhuo also claimed to have 100,000 troops, and when the Korean horses rebelled, they also gathered tens of thousands of troops, not to mention Beigong Liaison
When the Qiang people rebelled, more than a dozen Qiang tribes gathered together, and the momentum was even greater.
However, those mighty military horses have now disappeared into the clouds and smoke, just like the clouds in the sky. Although they may temporarily cover the world, the world here will not change...
When Pang Xun and his party came to see Fei Qian, although they didn't seem to have any special emotions on the surface, they inevitably stirred up waves in their hearts...
Pang Xuan lowered his head, looking like a humble gesture.
Who could have imagined that this Fei Qian went to the Western Regions to conquer, and not only put down the rebellion in the Western Regions in a blink of an eye, but it seemed that he did not damage many soldiers and horses in the Western Regions, and even gained a lot more troops!
How fat is this?!
Although it is obvious that the more soldiers and horses in the army are Hu people, Qiang people and Semu people, these guys seem to be in a different state from before.
Pang Qiao couldn't tell exactly what was different.
Pang Qiao, not Pang Juan. He has nothing to do with Pang Tong. He is from Jiuquan, and his surname is pronounced in the local area. Because the Han Dynasty required that the post of prefect should not be made by local people, he only served as the chief administrator of Jiuquan.
The governor of Jiuquan is Xu Yi, a native of Jizhou.
Xu Yi was named the prefect of Jiuquan during the Ling Emperor's period. There was also a Handan merchant who came to serve in this territory earlier than Xu Yi.
Handan merchants were appointed governor of Yongzhou...
The Handan merchants are now stranded in Yuanquan County. The reason for staying in Yuanquan County is that on the one hand, the Handan merchants have an old relationship with Zhang Huan's youngest son, Zhang Meng, and on the other hand, Fei Qian sent Jia Xu as the governor of Liangzhou.
Liangzhou and Yongzhou, I can’t tell them apart.
Not only people of later generations can't tell the difference, but people in the Han Dynasty can't tell the difference either.
Yongzhou was established and rescinded, rescinded and re-established. It was dismantled and re-assembled, re-consolidated and dismantled again. It was a rather toss-up state.
Nowadays, Yongzhou is divided on the basis of Liangzhou, but the word "Yong" reminds people of the ancient Yongzhou of "Yongshui" and "Yongshan". Whether it is Yongshui or Yongshan, both
It is in the Guanzhong Youfufeng area, which is the ancient Yongzhou including Guanzhong Sanfu. Liangzhou was separated from the ancient Yongzhou, and now Liangzhou is divided into the new Yongzhou. At the same time, after being separated,
There is no effective attribution of officials between Liangzhou and Yongzhou, so let alone the people who are confused, even the officials don't know what to do.
Jiuquan, according to the previous division, belonged to Liangzhou, but it was later divided by the imperial court to New Yongzhou. Similarly, if it was based on the previous division by the imperial court, then Wuwei, Zhangye, Dunhuang, and Xihai also belonged to New Yongzhou.
They all fall under the jurisdiction of Handan Shang, the governor of Yongzhou.
Fei Qian gave relatively preferential treatment to these officials of the old dynasty and did not discriminate against them. He basically reserved their positions and would not make things difficult for them. Of course, he would not pay them salaries for the imperial court. Of course, he would not make things difficult for them.
, these people basically don’t live off their salaries. There are actually many ways for them to get money. They don’t even need to make money before someone will give them a lot of money...
And to be honest, the closer you get to Hu land, the dividing line between Hu and Han is not so clear, and the tribal manor system exists at the same time.
This tribal manor system is a word coined by Fei Qian.
Because in this area, there were both manor serfs and tribal slaves, and even the two overlapped, creating a strange and twisted production and lifestyle that existed for many years.
Existence is reasonable.
The reason why it ends with the manor system instead of the tribal system is because it is generally centered on a fixed manor. It is similar to the manor system in Shandong, but it is mixed with a more primitive slavery system, which has the suppression of the human body.
More harsh oppression and exploitation. But at the same time, the tribe is barbaric, ferocious, and bloody.
The tribal system can be said to be a system with extremely low productivity. Everything in the tribe belongs to the tribal chief, including all property and life. The tribal chief can kill, massacre, and punish any member of the tribe at will, and carry out whatever he wants.
Violence does not require any reason or law. The will of the tribal chief is the will of the tribe.
The reason why Fei Qian said that the New Yongzhou area belongs to the category of tribal manor system is because there are both manor system scholars and tribal barbarians, twisting together and coexisting at the same time, but because there was no such thing before the Eastern Han Dynasty
It completely collapsed, so the manor system had a slight upper hand. It is conceivable that if the Central Plains dynasty weakened and could not control these areas, these areas would quickly slip into a tribal system, or something similar...
After the Han Dynasty established its capital in Luoyang, its control over the land west of Longyou and Hexi continued to weaken. The big families and surnames in the Hexi area went their own way, attacking and robbing each other, with one hand black and the other white. This has almost become a norm. Even after Dong Zhuo's death
, Han Ma was destroyed, and Beigong was uprooted, but it still cannot be regarded as completely eradicating the ills in these areas.
The illness comes like a mountain falling, and the illness goes away like a thread spinning.
For these local powerful factions, not everyone is willing to join.
Especially after tasting the taste of the Tu Emperor...
Pang Qiao is here to give someone away.
Of course it's not Pang Xun's own, but someone else's.
He is just responsible for delivering it.
The head belongs to a "Tu Emperor", a guy whose head suddenly became abnormal and unreasonable for some unknown reason.
The head pickled with lime, the dehydrated skin turned blue and black, and the cheeks were tightly pulled and locked, exposing the yellow and black teeth. Although it had been dehydrated with lime in winter, the rotten smell was still very strong, which made
Pang Qiao felt very sad.
But Pang Qiao still had to hold such a head in his hands, and then held it all the way to the Fei Qian table case.
"Is this Song Jian?" Fei Qian asked.
Asking knowingly.
Pang Qiao bowed his hands respectfully and replied: "Reply to Hussar, that's right."
Then Pang Qiao slightly stretched out his hand to signal, "There are a total of one hundred and thirty-eight officials from the pseudo prime minister down, and their heads are displayed outside."
Song Jian, also known as Zong Jian, is a "king", a king he made for himself.
At first, no one cared about this matter at all.
Unlike in the Han Dynasty, in the mountains and forests located in the edge areas, there are many barbarians and various tribes. There are many small and large kings in the villages. I don’t know how many kings there are among the Qiang people, kings among the Di people, and Zhi people.
Ba people and so on may ask casually what kind of king they are.
Therefore, Song Jian, the self-proclaimed king in the corner of the corner, no one paid attention to this matter at the beginning.
It is indeed the corner of the horn. He became the king among the Di and Qiang people, probably in the hills east of Xiping and west of Hanzhong, in a county called Fanhan.
Speaking of which, this guy was an invisible prince in the Three Kingdoms. In history, he actually remained invisible for thirty years before being destroyed...
When Han and Ma rebelled, Song Jian responded, captured Pouhan, and then killed the original Han officials in Pouhan and became the local emperor. Although Song Jian's behavior was very bad, he and Han Sui
Compared with Ma Teng, it looks like folliculitis on a big man's limbs. Compared with the large wound cut by Han Sui and Ma Teng, it is really not worth mentioning.
Song Jian was born in Yicong, Liangzhou. According to the concept of later generations, he was actually equivalent to the local "regiment training", claiming to have ten thousand soldiers and horses...
Of course, this is actually bullying many ordinary people who don't know how to count. It is obvious that Song Jian definitely does not have so many troops. Because Song Jian has been hiding in the town of Panghan County from the beginning to the end. If there are so many troops, one person
Can a small county town in a poor ravine support an army of ten thousand people for thirty years? So there are only ten thousand people at most, including the old and the weak like most rebels.
When Zhang Liao and Yang Fu sent troops to the snowy area, they did not take a special detour to conquer it. On the one hand, they were in a mountainous area, so it was not cost-effective to take a special detour. On the other hand, Song Jian had not yet
He was dizzy, or had already been dizzy, but no news came out, so Zhang Liao and others thought that they were just a big dog. In the case where Song Jian did not show any obvious hostility, the Tibetan people were the focus at that time and were not worthy of special attention.
Taking such a trip is a big deal.
Then things slowly started to get weird...
Song Jian didn't know what was wrong, but he actually started to form a "court"!
Not only did he hold an enthronement ceremony, he also began to imitate the model of the Han Dynasty, and began to seal the prime minister, three princes, and hundreds of officials...
There are really "hundred" officials, with a total of more than one hundred and thirty officials granted.
These officials may have been sealed from the beginning, or they may have been sealed later, but they are all here now...
After Yang Fu learned the news, he led his troops to attack the city. In less than ten days, they broke into the city. Even Song Jian, the local emperor, and all his "hundred officials" cut off their heads and forwarded them to Fei.
Dive in front of you.
no Zuo no Die.
Compared with the feudal dynasties of later generations, the Han Dynasty was relatively tolerant. As long as they did not seek death, they generally would not go out of their way to attack the surrounding barbarian tribes and village leaders.
King, but there are some red lines that cannot be touched.
For example, like Song Jian, it is okay to be king, but once he imitates the imperial court and appoints prime minister or something, the whole clan will be immediately beheaded.
No one knows what Song Jian was thinking at that time, but this is not the point. The point is that if he really wants to die, no one can stop him...
Is it really that important whether you have been granted the title of "Hundred Officials"?
Because claiming to be king is just a title, and enfeoffing hundreds of officials represents order.
Within a country, there can only be one order.
If a country cannot protect its own order, it is an original sin and death is not a pity.
Just like Song Jian.
This is the confrontation between order and order.
So, why can a place in the Hexi Corridor be both Liangzhou and Yongzhou, or can it be cut up if you want? Then after cutting it, it can really be put back together when you want to.
Fei Qian glanced at Pang Qian.
Pang Qiao stood aside respectfully with some embarrassment.
A common feature of these local tycoons is that they have short-sightedness. It cannot be said that these people do not understand loyalty. They also have the concept of loyalty, but sometimes the objects of loyalty are very strange.
"Has Prefect Xu's illness gotten better?"
Fei Qian looked at the heads here and asked suddenly.
Pang Qiao's body trembled slightly, then he lowered his head and reported back, "Qi Hussar... Xu Shijun's illness has been recurring and he has not yet recovered..."
Fei Qian nodded.
Is Xu Yi, the prefect of Jiuquan, sick? Even if you say it's false, it's not false, and if you say it's true, it's not entirely true.
Xu Yi is not in good health. He is incomparable to Xiliang Wufu. It is normal to be weak and sick. Is it just that he is really sick and can't get out of bed...
Not necessarily.
According to a report from the Youwen Division, after the news that Cao Cao was raising troops to attack Guanzhong reached Jiuquan, Xu Yi fell ill and could not afford to be ill.
Of course, Fei Qian did not need to be a person who had to force patients to come to see him in order to show his majesty, so he did not force Xu Yi to come to see him. Some people, even if they come, it is useless if they are not willing.
.
Xu Yi's thoughts, or heart problems, are actually not difficult to guess.
Before Cao Cao and Fei Qian went to war, Shandong and Guanzhong could still maintain relative "peace" on the surface, and they could still be regarded as a "whole", or "brothers". Even if there were some fights or even fights between brothers, but
It was just a fist move, and at most the nose was bruised and the face was a little swollen, but now that he raised a knife and a gun, it was nothing more than a nosebleed.
With an identity like Xu Yi, he could self-anesthetize himself before and show that he was still within the Han court even under the hussar, but now he can no longer deceive himself.
As the prefect of Jiuquan, Xu Yi should in principle be responsible for Fei Qian, because Fei Qian is the military governor of the three states and is in charge of the Xijing Shangshutai. But the problem is that Cao Cao now claims that these are transgressions and treason, and Fei Qian is in Guanzhong
Officials in the North and other places cannot be counted...
This is very embarrassing.
It was so embarrassing that Xu Yi had no choice but to get sick. He was so sick that it was best to wait until the dust had settled before he could recover.
Pang Qiao obviously knew this, but he belonged to a local wealthy family. Xu Yi could only say that he was unable to manage due to illness, so he just left and Pang Qiao couldn't leave, so he could only bite the bullet and come to see Fei.
Qian, even if this kind of meeting has a somewhat official nature, in the eyes of other people, it may mean taking sides.
It's a pity that Fei Qian is still not satisfied with Pang Xuan's "taking sides".
"Master Pang's book..."
Fei Qian seems to be smiling but not smiling.
"Ah... my subordinate is here..."
Pang Qiao responded quickly.
"Master Pang has lived here for many years, so he must be familiar with the surrounding people..." Fei Qian said softly, in an understatement, "Now that I have seen the outstanding people in Jiuquan, and the beautiful scenery here, I can't bear to enjoy it all to myself... So can I trouble Master Pang?"
Invite everyone here on my behalf... I will prepare a small amount of wine and sweep the couch to welcome..."
"Uh...subordinate...obey orders..."
Although Pang Chuo knew that this was not a good job, he could only bow his head and accept the order now.
Good times and beautiful scenery?
What beautiful scenery?
In the middle of winter, come and see the heads in one place?
There are countless orange and wheat peels swirling in Pang Xuan's heart...
