Zhu Hao's words left Sun Ce speechless. At the same time, Sun Bi, Zhu Zhi, and Cheng Pu also began to persuade Sun Ce to surrender to the court. They were different from the young Sun Ce. They had experienced many battles and had already seen that Yuan Shu had become a leader.
A broken ship, now seeking refuge with the imperial court is the best way out for them! Sun Ce, who was beleaguered internally and externally, found that his declaration of resisting to the end was so weak!
In mid-May of the fourth year of Chuping of the Han Dynasty (AD 193)
Liu Bei led an army of 80,000 men and marched to Hefei City!
Sun Ce rode alone in front of Liu Bei's army and shouted: "General, you can surrender if you want me, Sun Ce, as long as someone can defeat me!"
After Zhu Hao came to Hefei and brought the conditions that the court was willing to appease them, Sun Ce felt very painful. The uncles who had brought him up since childhood were unwilling to continue fighting. They wanted to return to the court, but he felt sorry for surrendering like this.
Yuan Shu has always taken great care of him!
After suffering like this for a few days, Sun Ce decided to use his own method to solve the problem, which was to die on the battlefield. This would be an explanation to Yuan Shu!
Liu Bei and others looked at this scene strangely and said, "Didn't Wenming say that he had persuaded Sun Ce to surrender? What is going on now?"
Yuan Ji looked at Sun Ce and said: "Perhaps it is because of his youthful spirit. Sun Ce feels that he has failed Yuan Shu by surrendering like this, so he wants to repay it with his own life!"
Hearing this, Liu Bei admired Sun Ce and said, "I didn't embarrass Sun Wentai!"
Then Liu Bei shouted: "Zilong goes to meet Sun Ce, but don't hurt Sun Ce's life!"
Liu Bei first came to appreciate Sun Ce, but also wanted to take Zhu Jun into consideration, so he had no intention of hurting Sun Ce!
After Zhao Yun heard Liu Bei's order, he rushed out.
Sun Ce saw Zhao Yun going into battle and said, "Come and tell me your name?"
"Changshan Zhao Zilong!"
After saying that, he rode his war horse and rushed towards Sun Ce!
Sun Ce said happily: "I have long heard that the general has three generals who can defeat ten thousand people. Today I will let you see it to see if the rumors are exaggerated!"
Then Sun Ce also rode towards Zhao Yun. As the two got closer and closer, Sun Ce suddenly pulled out his sword and slashed out with the force of thunder!
"Kill!" Zhao Yun blocked with his spear, resisting Sun Ce's thunderous blow. The sword and gun collided, causing sparks to fly.
Zhao Yun thrust his spear straight at Sun Ce! Sun Ce instinctively leaned up and dodged the blow!
After that, the two of them kept fighting each other, and the battle lasted for dozens of rounds without a winner!
Zhang Fei looked at the fierce battle and said excitedly: "How many brushes does this Sun Ce have? He can actually resist Zilong's attacks for so many rounds! If I had known that Sun Ce was so brave, I should have let me fight!"
Liu Bei said angrily: "You don't act lightly or seriously. If you kill Sun Ce, how will I explain it to Zhu Gong!"
Guan Yu on the side came to Liu Bei and said: "Sun Ce is going to be defeated!"
Sun Ce used all his strength every time he used his sword. Although his sword technique was fierce, it consumed a lot of energy. After dozens of rounds of fighting, Zhao Yun had nothing to do, but he was already out of breath. In the end, Zhao Yun caught Sun Ce's flaw and was beaten with a spear.
Get off your horse!
Even the generals were defeated, and Sun Ce gave up completely!
Without Sun Ce's obstruction, Liu Bei and the others easily took over Hefei!
The words were divided into two parts. Sun Ce, who was guarding Hefei, led an army of 10,000 to defect to Liu Bei. The news reached Shouchun. Yuan Shu was extremely shocked and disappointed. Li Ye, Ji Ling and others were also unprepared. They were all dumbfounded. They had even boasted that they wanted to fight with Liu Bei.
During the war, he turned around and took refuge with Liu Bei. This was so shameless!
Sun Ce's betrayal finally made Yuan Shu wake up from his dream of imperial hegemony. He knew that he would never have a chance to make a comeback, and God seemed to have played a joke on him. The Jianghuai area would enter the rainy season from May to July.
, but it happened that this year it was mid-May but it still didn’t rain. Instead, it was sunny every day. Marching at an unusual time, it was obviously impossible for him to use the weather to stop Liu Bei! Yuan Shu laughed miserably, and for a moment
Disheartened.
The Xuzhou Army and the Qingzhou Army also crossed Guangling County and entered Zhongli County. Now the 80,000 coalition troops are less than 200 miles away from Shouchun!
May 20th! 170,000 imperial allied troops surrounded Shouchun. Yuan Shu went to Yang Hong, Yan Xiang, Ji Ling and others to discuss countermeasures, but found that he really had no way out except surrender!
At this moment, Yuan Ji arrived in Shouchun City! Yuan Shu did not feel surprised when he saw Yuan Ji, but said calmly: "Brother, you are here!"
Yuan Ji felt complicated at this time. He had hatred towards Yuan Shu and the others, but he felt a little distressed when he saw the decadent Yuan Shu. He and Yuan Shu were brothers, and they had a good relationship since they were young! If it hadn't been for the incident with the Kwantung Allied Forces, their relationship would have been different.
It won't be what it is now!
"Surrender, highway!"
Yuan Shu smiled miserably and said: "How can I not surrender now? How does the imperial court plan to deal with me?"
Yuan Jidao: "Now that the imperial court is really in a position to employ people, it will not kill you. Instead, it will exile you thousands of miles away. You and your confidants will be exiled to Lingling County for farming!"
Yuan Shu mocked: "Liu Bei deserves to be born in mud. He really wants to use farming to conquer the world, and now he actually wants to use the farming system in a barbaric land like Lingling County!"
Yuan Shu didn't even want Jiangdong, let alone the land of Jingnan. Don't think this is a big granary for future generations, but now the four counties of Jingnan don't even have a population of one million! It is a real barbaric land.
Yuan Ji said angrily: "If you had the ability, you wouldn't be reduced to what you are now. You actually have the nerve to look down on Liu Bei's settlement system. Your starting point is much higher than Liu Bei's, but he has already become a general, and you are now
You have become a prisoner, and you still have the nerve to look down on others! If you had to put down your arrogance a little, you wouldn't have fallen to this! Look at your appearance now, it is simply a shame for the Yuan family!"
Yuan Shu was almost angry to death, but he quickly countered: "Yes, brother, you are the glory of the Yuan family and have become the general's lackey. Brother, you want to go back to the original path, but I don't know when you will do it."
Die Liu Bei!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yuan Ji said helplessly: "You are just a tough talker. Go to Jingnan and work hard. I will find a way for you to end your exile as soon as possible!"
After Yuan Ji entered Shouchun, he announced Shouchun's surrender, and Yuan Shu's power was officially destroyed!
Then, in terms of merit and rewards, although the Qingzhou Army and Xuzhou Army did not play a big role, they supported them from thousands of miles away, and Xun You even told Liu Bei about the difficulty of Qingzhou's resistance to Lei Gong now, and asked for the court's support. Liu Bei could only use Yuan Shu's accumulation in Shouchun.
Give them half of your wealth and food!
After Xun You and Tao Qian discussed it, the money went to the Xuzhou Army, and the food and grass went to the Qingzhou Army!
At the same time, Liu Bei recruited Liu Yao into the imperial court in the name of the imperial court and was promoted to become one of the Nine Ministers. Liu Yao had no intention of separatist rule, so he happily handed over his troops and horses, and happily went to Jingzhou to take office.
, and the governor of Yangzhou was appointed by Liu Bei to Guan Yu!
At this point, the entire Yangzhou War was over. The territory under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court expanded to Jing and Yangzhou, and his strength was restored. However, Liu Bei had to begin to face Yuan Shao's political offensive at the imperial court!
The words are divided into two parts. While the war is raging in the south, the land of Hebei is peaceful, and everyone is working hard to build their own homes!
After Xu Wei raised enough funds, the major factories under Tengjia Army continued to manufacture various agricultural tools and tools and transported them to the four counties of Liaodong!
The legion in Liaodong opened very quickly. Hundreds of legion points have been established in the Liaohe River area. Not only are these field soldiers young and strong, they also have a large number of iron farm tools in their hands, and each settlement point has hundreds of cattle and horses.
Many, it can be said that these advanced tools and large animals have greatly accelerated the pace of reclamation. 30,000 reclamation soldiers reclaimed 300,000 acres of land in less than a month, and all of them were planted with soybeans. Then everyone waited
Autumn harvest!
Outside the military settlements, after being inspired by Xu Wei, businessmen like Zhen An also began to discover that the vast Liaodong was a hot spot for wealth in Da Qianxin.
They brought their craftsmen and caravans to Pingguo County, Liaodong County, and then they saw Liaodong where there were towering trees everywhere, and the sea water was full of fish. Even the islands in Liaodong were more than ten times more than those in Guan, and there were many birds.
There are obviously much more bezoars than in the pass.
These big businessmen thought they were in the right place, so they began to build their own shipyards, fish processing plants, and carpentry factories, and recruited local people to cut down giant trees in the wild. They formed fishing teams and caravans to dig struvite.
At that time, the whole Liaodong was very lively.
The Liaodong area is already sparsely populated. Zhen An and the others invested a lot of money in construction and recruited a large number of workers in Liaodong, which quickly pushed up local wages. A monthly salary of 1,000 yuan became the basic salary in Liaodong, and the local residents of Liaodong were not.
Fools, they don't want to work for businessmen like Zhen An. Instead, they set up their own logging team and cut down trees themselves and sell them to Zhen An and others. This way they can make more money! You can say that whatever big businessmen like Zhen An do, they learn to do it.
What, even the locals have begun to form caravans to compete with Zhen An and the others for business!
These locals from Liaodong also began to enter these industries. All the workers were robbed by them, which forced them to recruit workers from within the customs. Zhen An offered them three times more wages than from the customs and helped them buy round-trip ferry tickets.
, and Liaodong is very far by land, but it only takes a few days by sea. For the people of Daqian, this time is like going to another county. Faced with three times the monthly salary, few people can resist this
Temptation, even if you work part-time for a few months, you can still make a lot of money.
Xu Wei spent billions to recruit 30,000 field soldiers, but Zhen An and others easily recruited tens of thousands of people from the pass to go to Liaodong to help them do things!
Moreover, Zhen An's behavior also made more and more tribesmen think that Liaodong has great potential. Otherwise, why would their big businessmen such as Qu Shuai and Zhen An go to Liaodong? As a result, more and more tribesmen among the people
I applied to go to Liaodong, and in less than a month, 40,000 to 50,000 tribesmen went to Liaodong to farm. After all, one family in Liaodong can get hundreds of acres of land, which is more than three times more than in Guanhai!
And these are all civilian households, and it is not easy for Xu Wei to use the military camp model!
So he decided to establish civilian villages in Liaodong. A thousand people would set up a village and have a village chief. The chiefs who managed these villages became a big problem. It was impossible for Xu Wei to imitate the Han Dynasty and let the wild fields of Liaodong go wild. On the contrary, the more he
In such an undeveloped land, management must be stricter. After all, a blank piece of paper is easy to draw on. Xu Wei does not want to establish a feudal system, but wants to establish a system that adapts to the industrialized world. There is no better place than Liaodong.
place.
Xu Weike remembered that his history teacher said that the reason why the industrialization of Hope Country developed the fastest was because there was no hindrance from the feudal system! And Liaodong could become the western part of Daqian.
Therefore, not only can there be no fewer cadres in Liaodong, but there are more cadres than in Daganguan. However, this requires more than a few talents. If we really follow the modern system, the entire Dagan cadres will not be able to fill the vacancies in Liaodong.
So Xu Wei selected cadres within the entire large cadres. If he wanted to recruit talents, there was no more fair and suitable method than the imperial examination system.
So Xu Wei issued an edict that all citizens of Daqian and those who were literate could pass the imperial examination and become village chiefs. Qiangfu and other officials with 400 shi to support the construction of Liaodong!
And as long as these cadres go to Liaodong to provide assistance for more than three years, those with qualified performance can be promoted to one level. The village chief can become a township chief, and the township chief can become a county magistrate! The county magistrate can become a county guard! This is an advanced thing for future generations of the Chinese dynasty.
experience,
Within the Dagang cadres, cadres at the village chief level can nominate themselves and choose to work in Liaodong. Basically, these cadres can be promoted to a higher level when they go to Liaodong! The treatment is also the same as other cadres who support Liaodong. This is very important for officials within the Dagang cadres.
In other words, it means getting promoted by two ranks, which is a shortcut for many people.
As soon as this news was released, it caused a sensation in the entire Daqian Kingdom. Especially the children of the noble families who were suppressed by Xu Wei were even more excited. They saw that the Daqian established by Lei Gong became more and more prosperous. It didn't matter that they had no hope of revenge. After all, Xu Wei now
The gap with them is too big, and they don't dare to think of revenge. But cutting off their official careers is what makes them most desperate. As children of powerful families, they naturally know that this means that they can only be excluded.
Outside the ruling class of Daqian Country, this is what they cannot tolerate.
In order to re-enter the officialdom of Daqian, the remaining noble nobles thought of many ways. They purchased the national debt of Daqian, helped Lei Gong stabilize the border, and helped Lei Gong transport grain and grass when he fought. It can be said that these noble nobles treated Lei Gong better than the original Ling Emperor.
Ten times as hard, a hundred times as much, if they could break up their family and build a country like this, Emperor Ling might even laugh and come back to life!
But even though they are so concerned about Lei Gong, their children are having a very difficult time within Daqian. Most of them are below the level of petty officials like Qiang Fu. If they want to rise further, they will encounter obstacles. They know this obstacle. From Thunder Lord! It is because of this that they are particularly desperate!
Now that Lei Gong has released restrictions on them, success or failure will be determined by exams. They don't think that Da Gan's mud-legged legs can compare with their heirlooms of poems and books. Even becoming a small official with 400 shi is a victory for them, let alone After entering Liaodong, they can be promoted to the county magistrate of Qianshi, which allows them to break through the ceiling given to them by Lei Gong.
