Xu Wei touched his nose in embarrassment and thought to himself, Dong Zhuo was not that powerful originally, but the current Dong Zhuo was enhanced by my power, and it turned out to be too much!
However, Xu Wei still said: "Then find a way to give Yuan Shao and the others some support so that they can fight more intensely."
Now Xu Wei is also worried that this enhanced version of Dong Zhuo will really destroy Yuan Shao and the others, and the Han Dynasty will be unified in the hands of Dong Zhuo again. If this happens, Xu Wei will be shooting himself in the foot!
Wang Ge nodded. It is easy to support Yuan Shao. Now, Hanoi County where Yuan Shao is located relies on them to go to Shangdang County. Just give him some good weapons and equipment. Moreover, this is also good for the Tengjia Army. Yuan Shao and the others are all
The second-generation family has money, food, and strong spending power!
After talking about Yuan Shao, Wang Ge continued to Xu Wei: "Yu Du and the others came to us and said they wanted to buy some weapons and equipment, but it was difficult for them to transport food here, so they wanted to use gold and copper coins to buy weapons.
!”
In the past few months, the number of Yu Du's subordinates has increased dramatically. The total number of his subordinates, old and young, exceeds one million, and those who can actually fight exceed 300,000. Naturally, he is extremely short of weapons and equipment. He thought of the Tengjia Army as an ally, and it happened that he also broke through.
He robbed many Wubao and robbed a lot of money, so he asked his close men to bring the money to Bingzhou!
Xu Weidao: "We are allies with the Yellow Turban Army. Of course we must help them and give them the lowest price for weapons and equipment. The stronger they are, the more beneficial it will be for us to conquer the Central Plains in the future!"
Yu Du and the others started another uprising, which solved a big mystery that Xu Wei had always had.
When I watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", I was always surprised. Cao Cao's territory was obviously in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Even if he lacked food, he didn't even have a large population. The place where Cao Cao stayed was the most densely populated Central Plains. How could there be a shortage of food?
The population of the settlement?
Cao Cao used the captured Yellow Turban Army to solve the population problem of the settlement. After coming to this world, Xu Wei finally understood. It turned out that this was Cao Cao. Yuan Shao and the others were committing suicide. An alliance to challenge Dong created a rivalry.
There were more Yellow Turbans than any other uprising, and the entire Central Plains was thrown into chaos.
This means that the military strength of the princes in the world is more than ten times stronger than when Zhang Jiao revolted. Otherwise, the world would really have changed in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army. No wonder the Yellow Turban Army has been playing soy sauce in the early stages of the Three Kingdoms. It turns out that Yuan Shao and the others have been constantly
Create the Yellow Turban Army!
It can be imagined that Sili Yanzhou, the most populous and richest city in the Han Dynasty, experienced chaotic battles involving hundreds of thousands of troops. The people died and fled. After Cao Cao took control of Yanzhou, E Ran discovered that the people in the hands of his own state pastor were still alive.
Not as good as a powerful family, the whole Yanzhou is full of dead people and wasteland. Only then can we write poems like the bones are exposed in the wild, there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles, and the people are missing one thing, and the thought of it is heartbreaking,
When Xu Wei heard this poem for the first time, he thought it was a frontier poem, but he did not expect that it was written by Cao Cao in Yanzhou!
But it is a pity that this most powerful Yellow Turban uprising force was surrounded and suppressed by the Kwantung princes.
Xu Wei recalled through the current situation that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao started by pacifying the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. Cao Cao alone pacified a million Yellow Turban Army. Of course, the old, weak, sick and disabled accounted for the majority, and there were only less than 100,000 young and strong.
It looked like this, and Cao Cao relied on these prisoners to form his own trusted Qingzhou Army.
Relatively speaking, Gongsun Zan was more fierce. He wiped out 300,000 of the main force of the Yellow Turban Army in one go. He used these Yellow Turban Army prisoners to form a large army, and then fought Yuan Shao back and forth. It seemed that the two of them defeated the main force of the Yellow Turban Army.
Yuan Shao was not very capable anymore. He had to rely on Lu Bu to defeat Zhang Yan. In the end, Zhang Yan was not killed, but Zhang Yan was driven back to the Taihang Mountains. During the Battle of Guandu, Zhang Yan could still lead hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans.
The army defected to Cao Cao!
It can be seen from the battles of these people that the number of this wave of Yellow Turban Army in history was more than 3 million. It is conceivable how many people were affected by this war and how many people died. It was this wave of war that caused the entire
The vitality of the Central Plains was severely damaged, and drought and plague broke out for several years in succession. However, this was the time when the war between the Central Plains princes was the most intense. Every family was short of food, and there was no stable land for farming. The Kanto princes could only
To solve the food problem, Cao Cao's grain and grass officer cut down a large area.
And the reason why Liu Bei has the reputation of a hero is because when all the princes in the world were looking for help, Liu Bei alone kept the bottom line. Even when he was in the lowest period, he did not harm the people.
During the war between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu, his hometown was stolen by Lu Bu and his army ran out of food. However, under Liu Bei's control, even if these soldiers starved to death, they did not plunder the people. This made his name spread throughout the Han Dynasty, even Cao Cao.
You must take Liu Bei's reputation as a hero into account and don't dare to kill him!
From the above examples, we can see how terrible this war was. It is estimated that more than 10 to 20 million people died in the entire Central Plains. At the same time, because the population was wiped out, the Yellow Turban Army had no backup and eventually became bandits.
Like!
Xu Wei recalled the apocalyptic scene of the Han Dynasty in the next few years, and was stunned for a moment. Xu Wei did not expect that the future would be so terrible. It can be said that no one in the Han Dynasty was the winner!
That’s not right! It should be said that only the wealthy nobles are the winners. They have forts and food. However, most of them survived the chaotic war in the Central Plains. It was even because of this chaotic war that almost all the people in the world died, most of them
The population is all in the hands of the noble families, so the princes of all parties have to rely on the noble families if they want to expand their strength.
It should be said that it was because of this chaotic war that the wealthy gentry came onto the stage of history. Wubao and manors blossomed all over the land of the Han Dynasty. The land of the Han Dynasty became manorial, and the economy was completely fragmented, which was then transmitted to politics, forming the
The situation in which the Sima family and the gentry shared the world, and this sharing of the world was the worst kind of Polish aristocratic republican political system, which led to the subsequent Five Husbands.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Thinking of this, Xu Wei felt that he could not only support Yuan Shao and the others, but also find ways to support the Yellow Turban Army and the others, improve their offensive strength, and completely defeat the powerful nobles of the Han Dynasty.
Clean up and wipe out this cancer, so that they will save a lot of trouble when they occupy the Central Plains in the future.
So Xu Wei thought for a while and said: "I have an idea. We can set up a crash course for officers here in Shangdang County to teach them how to use crowbars to break into Wubao, teach them how to simply organize the people, and help the Yellow Turban Army handle logistical affairs.
, making simple weapons, and also teaching the officers of the Yellow Turban Army how to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers."
"The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army have an absolute advantage over the noble clans, but they have been unable to develop. First, they cannot break the Wubao and seize supplies. Second, they do not have a stable territory to develop and grow!"
Wang Ge was surprised and said: "There are so many things to learn, I'm afraid it's more than what we can learn in the military academy in Mayi now, but Yu Du and the others don't have the time!"
This is how the Yellow Turban Army expanded in spring and summer, going wherever they went to eat. If they didn't have enough supplies in winter, most of them would starve to death, and the rest would have no choice but to flee up the mountains!
Tao Qian's method of dealing with the Yellow Turban Army was also very simple, which was to concentrate the main force and defend a few large cities. When the Yellow Turban Army's food and grass ran out in winter, they would fight back against the Yellow Turban Army, regain the lost ground, and drive the Yellow Turban Army soldiers up the mountain!
Therefore, Yu Du and the others had a very short period of prosperity. If they could not grab enough food before the autumn harvest, they would immediately decline.
Xu Wei thought for a while and said: "Let them have military training for seven days to understand how to train soldiers and how to arrange a military formation. They have a large number of people. As long as there is a slight formation, the combat effectiveness can be greatly improved. As for how to organize the help of the old and the weak
To deal with the logistics, we can also write a book just for them to read.”
"Let them write a book on guerrilla warfare for them, so that the generals of the Yellow Turban Army know how to organize the army and how to organize the people. Only organized people and the army can explode with strong combat effectiveness. If the people cannot be organized, they
Even if there are a large number of people, they will still be surrounded and suppressed by the powerful noble families!"
Xu Wei thought for a while and planned to write down some tactics of guerrilla warfare in later generations. He also wrote about how to set up base areas in later generations of guerrilla warfare, how to organize the people, how to farm land, raise chickens, etc., and develop the economy.
, how to defend the base area, expand the base area, etc.
These two books should be called dragon-slaying skills in this era. Yu Du and the others learned it, not to mention dealing with big princes like Cao Cao, but it would be good if they could deal with small forts. As long as the forts of these powerful nobles
If it is no longer a paradise, or even suffers a devastating blow, it will be difficult for the noble gentry to enter the stage of history!
Moreover, if such books are spread, it will be easier for the people of the world to rebel. No matter who is in power in the future, he must be careful and kind to the people. It is not in vain for him to travel here. Even if he loses to Cao Cao and other princes later, he can still be regarded as
I left a fire in this world.
Wang Ge was surprised and said: "We also need to learn these things, especially crowbars, which have become popular throughout the north. Don't they know how to use them at Yudu?"
"Yu Du and the others really don't know how to use it!" Speaking of which, Xu Wei was actually quite helpless. Crowbars have become very popular in the entire north of the Yellow River. Any gang that wants to rebel will find a way to get some crowbars. As long as there are
With the crowbar in hand, the Wubao of the wealthy nobles has become a place of wealth. Taking down a Wubao is considered a fortune for a refugee group of tens of thousands of people, which is enough for them to survive a winter.
But across the Yellow River, no one in the Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains knew how to use a crowbar, and many of them didn't even know how to use a crowbar. Leaders like Yu Du knew about crowbars, but they had no place to get them. Don't look at crowbars.
, but the technological content is not low. In this era, iron tools can only be made in few places, and the crowbars used to pry off wall tiles must use strong steel.
Strong men like Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju can be produced at great cost, but rebel groups like Yu Du are very difficult to obtain, and one or two crowbars are of little use. Hundreds, or even more, are needed.
It is easier to break through the fortress by digging together with multiple crowbars.
The wealthy nobles in Jizhou hate crowbars deeply. Anyone who dares to make such a thing will be executed. Thanks to them, crowbars have not spread in the Central Plains!
Xu Wei thought about it, there are now millions of Yellow Turban Army soldiers, they don't lack soldiers at all, they just lack the ability to attack difficulties. If he supports tens of thousands of crowbars and gives them to Yu Du, the millions of Yellow Turban Army soldiers in the Central Plains are enough to engulf the entire Central Plains.
Without these powerful noble families, it would be much easier to rule the Central Plains in the future.
Wang Ge clapped his hands and said, "I'm going to find Yu Du's men right now, dig down a city wall in front of him, and let them know how to attack Wubao!"
Xu Weidao: "We also give them some teaching materials from our military academy. After you ask them to teach them how to queue for a few days, let them learn on their own. The battlefield is the best teacher. Those who can learn will survive, and those who cannot learn will die. As long as you can
If you survive, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army will become stronger and stronger!"
Then Xu Wei also recalled the Anti-Japanese War novels he had read before, in which he wrote all the methods on how to build a political power. After writing, he would be handed over to Yu Du and the others. Whether they could survive the troubled times in the future would depend on themselves.
Now that he is capable, there is only this much he can do.
The next day, his subordinates told Xu Wei that Yuan Shao had envoys asking to see him!
Xu Wei summoned the envoy and said with a smile, "Yuan Shao sent you to the territory of our Tengjia Army. What's the matter?"
When Xin Pi saw Xu Wei, he said bluntly: "My lord wants to buy some iron armor."
Xu Wei smiled and said: "That's easy to say. Our Tengjia Army is open for business. It would be great to have a big customer like General Yuan. I wonder how many armors General Yuan wants?"
Xin Pi said: "The more, the better!"
Xu Wei smiled and said: "A set of iron armor costs 1,000 stones of grain. There is no credit or counter-offer. Now is the time of war. The war is raging outside. If we don't raise the price, we already see that your general is a big customer."
Yes, I wonder how many sets you want?"
In terms of armor, 1,000 stones of grain is really not expensive, but it is a pity that Yuan Shao needs too much and it is difficult to get so much grain. So Xinpi asked: "My lord wants to trade with gold, is this okay?"
I wonder if it would be more convenient to transport?"
Xu Wei smiled and shook his head and said: "No, Bingzhou is not short of gold now, it is short of food. If you can't come up with food, there is nothing I can do!"
Xu Wei thought for a while and said: "I have another way here. Hanoi County is not in the hands of Yuan Shao. In this way, Dong Zhuo exchanged one Shangdang County for 5,000 sets of iron armor. If Yuan Shao hands over Hanoi County to me, I can also give 5,000
