Turning over and dismounting, Gao Fei stared at the people who came to seek refuge around Shisun Mansion, and said to Shisun Rui: "Master Shisun, this matter is beyond my control. Who would have thought that Zhu Jun would come out halfway and cause chaos?"
My whole plan. Master Shisun, are you ready?"
Shisun Rui said: "General Gao, my son Shisun You has already told me the matter. Now that the matter has come to this, I can only leave. I have ordered people to load all my family property, together with the ten wealthy businessmen.
General Gao's departure is just a pity for the foundation that our Sun family has worked hard for in Luoyang for hundreds of years..."
"Master Shisun, please rest assured that what you have in Luoyang, I will compensate you double when you arrive in Jicheng. Now that the heroes have begun to fight, Luoyang will be affected sooner or later, and in the future it will be the most loyal place in the fight between the princes. Although Luoyang
The flowers are blooming like a brocade, and this is also the result of you rich merchants. As long as you go together, no matter where you go, you can make that city as prosperous as Luoyang."
"The general is right. I am the fourth generation of our Sun family. They have been doing business for generations, making Luoyang full of prosperity. Wherever our Sun family goes, we can make it rich. General Gao,
Without saying anything, I will immediately notify the other nine wealthy businessmen to come with me and follow General Gao to Youzhou."
Sun Ruigong, a high-flying court official, held up his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, please take these people away with you. You will prepare here first. When the fighting in the city stops, I will send someone to inform you. I'll take my leave now."
In the square of Luoyang City, many servants who had been driven over had gathered at this time. Under the care of Gao Feijun, they were divided into two groups. Just like the heroes fighting outside the city, various aristocratic families and wealthy families were led by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
The representatives engaged in armed fighting in the city, killing and injuring many people. If Gao Fei's army had not arrived in time and stopped the armed fighting, it would have probably spread to the entire Luoyang city.
More than 4,000 servants wearing various clothes were divided into two columns, separated by the cavalry of Gao Fei's army. There were still cavalry guarding the outside. Anyone who did not stop talking would be executed immediately. These servants, generals and the like
Most of the people in Luoyang are ruffians and hooligans, and fights are common. Because they are all retainers of the imperial officials, few people deal with these matters fairly.
Gao Fei led Huang Zhong to the square from the south of the city. When he saw so many people in the square, many of whom were injured, he immediately asked Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci to drive these people to Sili without saying a word.
The captain's yamen were all thrown into prison, so that these people from the province would come out to cause trouble again.
More than 4,000 people were unarmed, and all the sticks in their hands were confiscated. They were good at fighting, but when it came to fighting with the soldiers, they still seemed to have no confidence, so they could only be driven away by them, and they were all thrown into prison.
After handling these matters, Gao Fei asked Chen Dao and Wenpin to go to the south of the city to help Shi Sun Rui and others, and then he led his troops back to Daxiamen.
Gai Xun from Daxiamen had already received the news. The fighting in the city had stopped, and he was relieved. As soon as he saw Gao Fei coming, he hurriedly greeted him: "General Gao, thanks to you this time, otherwise, there would be no one in the city."
If we are managed by people, what trouble might those people cause?"
Gao Fei jumped off the horse, held Gai Xun's hand tightly, and said to Gai Xun: "Brother Gai, we can't stay in Luoyang for long now. The heroes led by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are fighting fiercely outside the city. If we don't evacuate now, the two of them will be killed by the city."
Once the caller has the idea of Luoyang,
, then Luoyang cannot be defended. The top ten wealthy businessmen in the city have already discussed and are preparing to leave the city with their families. The people will also follow. The North Gate is the only safe place at present. I hope Brother Gai can
Open the city gates and let them out."
Gai Xun agreed immediately without even thinking about it, and then said: "General Gao, if there is anything else you need Gai to do, just ask, now we have reached this juncture, His Majesty is not in Luoyang, is there anyone among the three ministers and nine ministers?"
A small number of people have fought with weapons, and the situation cannot be dealt with. We can only move as many people in the city as possible."
"Dong Zhuo has been killed by Ma Teng. Your Majesty is fine. He was protected by Ma Teng and returned to Guanzhong. Brother Gai, don't worry about the situation on your Majesty's side. Now Lu Bu is carrying Dong Zhuo's head, together with Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian's soldiers.
The horses are back together. Maybe they can stop the chaos, or maybe they will join in the melee. Cao Cao has returned to Yanzhou. I also want to return to Youzhou at this time. I wonder if Brother Gai is willing to go back to Youzhou with me?
"
Gai Xun thought for a moment and responded: "Since Your Majesty is fine, I should relax. Ma Teng is loyal to the Han Dynasty and may be able to protect Your Majesty from being harmed. My family has all moved to Luoyang.
Judging from the current situation, Luoyang is very
It may become an important place for heroes to compete for. If you continue to stay in Luoyang, you will definitely be affected. General Gao, I will go back to Youzhou with you. I, Gai Xun, do not have any great talents. I am not good at governing the place or leading troops.
I can handle any battle."
Hearing Gai Xun's words, Gao Fei was very grateful. He and Gai Xun were good friends. It seemed that this friend was not in vain. He hugged Gai Xun and said slowly: "Brother Gai, Luoyang City is the largest city in the entire Han Dynasty."
The city can accommodate 200,000 people. These people must be moved out within one or two days and temporarily stay away.
Leave the center of the war and return to Luoyang after the war subsides. In terms of food, we can open the official warehouse in the city and distribute it to the people. Brother Gai has good connections in Luoyang City. I would like to ask Brother Gai to come forward and mobilize the people in the city to evacuate in batches. I
This time we brought 5,000 soldiers for this very purpose."
Without saying a word, Gai Xun immediately held up his hands and said: "General Gao, don't worry, for the safety of the 200,000 people in Luoyang City, I will mobilize the entire city to evacuate, and ask General Gao to lend me five hundred cavalry. After an hour,
I will definitely organize the people to evacuate in an orderly manner."
Gao Fei said: "Well, after leaving Daxia Gate, twenty miles to the north is Beimang Mountain, which can be used as a temporary habitat for the people. In addition, if anyone is willing to return to Youzhou with me, away from this right and wrong
Those who live in the area, please brother Gai and evacuate separately."
Gai Xun grinned and said: "General Gao, you are really a shrewd person. At this juncture, you have not forgotten to increase the population of Youzhou. You are more suitable to be a state pastor than Youzhou pastor Liu Yu."
Gao Fei also burst into laughter, cupped his hands towards Gai Xun and said, "I'm here to wait for good news from Brother Gai!"
Gai Xun hugged his fist, then took the five hundred cavalry assigned to him by Gao Fei and returned to Luoyang City.
"Old General, you stay here to guard the city gate. I will take two hundred cavalry to take a look at the city." Gao Fei said to Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong said: "Lord, don't worry, I will definitely guard this door."
Gao Fei got on his horse and headed straight for the treasury with two hundred cavalrymen. Since he was leaving, he didn't want to loot the treasures in the treasury before leaving.
After running around the city for a while, they returned to the treasury near Beigong. At this time, there were only a few dozen people in charge of guarding, who were Zhu Jun's subordinates. When these people saw Gao Fei coming with his soldiers and horses, they all headed toward Gao Fei.
A gift.
"Open the treasury!"
These guards did not dare to disobey Gao Fei's order. After all, Gao Fei had a large number of people and a high official position, so they had no choice but to obey.
The moment the treasury opened, Gao Fei galloped into the treasury. As soon as he entered the door, Gao Fei was shocked. The treasury was actually empty, with nothing left.
"What's going on? Where are the things in the treasury?" Gao Fei rode out of the treasury, pointed at the empty treasury, and asked sharply.
The soldiers did not know that the treasury was empty, so they knelt down and begged for their lives.
When Gao Fei saw these soldiers, he didn't know anything about it. Suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, and he lost his voice: "Did Dong Zhuo take away everything in the treasury before he left? That's not good!"
"Go to Luocang!" Gao Fei spurred his horse and whipped his horse, shouted loudly, and galloped out.
Two hundred cavalrymen followed Gao Fei and ran to the southwest. There was a grain market there. Behind the grain market was Luocang, where the entire Luoyang City stored grain. Aocang was the main grain storage area of Sili, and the people in Luocang
Food comes from Aocang, basically
Grain is transported by water from Aocang to Luocang every six months to supply the food needs of the entire Luoyang City. When Gao Fei saw that the treasury was empty, he immediately thought of grain and grass, fearing that if Luocang was empty again, what would happen to Luoyang City?
Two hundred thousand people are going to drink the northwest wind.
Finally, he arrived at Luocang and saw more than 2,000 people in Luocang carrying grain to carriages. Although the people carrying grain were wearing Han army clothes, they were subordinates of Shisun Rui. Only then did he know that Shisun Rui
Rui Zao has secretly controlled
Luocang, those soldiers were also raised by him. After seeing this scene, he understood the horror of money from the bottom of his heart. He was also secretly glad that he tried his best to win over Shisun Rui. Otherwise, he would still have to deal with all these major events.
It really can't be done.
He was also thinking about another question in his mind. How should he deal with the extremely wealthy Shisun family? After arriving in Youzhou, should he kill the donkeys or continue to use them. Finally, he made his own decision.
It is better to use the financial resources of the Shisun family for the time being to pave a way for him in politics and military affairs. Because wars rely on national strength, if there is wealth like the Shisun family, the war will become relatively simple.
After he put aside his worries, he asked the people responsible for loading the grain to complete the matter as soon as possible, and then asked them to transport the grain directly to the north gate and transport it out of the city, while he rode back to the north gate with 200 cavalry.
When I returned to the North Gate again, all I saw along the way were the people of Luoyang bringing their families and their families, packing up and paying homage. Among them were many civil and military ministers who had not participated in the fighting. The wealthy families all sent their servants under Gai Xun's persuasion.
To maintain order in the city, under the command of Situ Yang Ci, Taizhong doctor Xu Jing, and Grand Sinong Chen Shi, who had high prestige in Luoyang City and even the entire Han Dynasty, they began to evacuate the people.
The north gate has been opened, and the people closest to the city gate evacuated first. Under the protection of Gai Xun and Huang Zhong, they left the city one after another from the Daxia Gate, and a great migration began...
