Chapter 347: The world is moving, the Xianbei army is knocking on the side
Naturally, these news did not escape Jia Rong's eyes and ears. Jizhou is one of the richest prefectures and counties in the Han Dynasty. Xianlian Pavilion and Lone Wolf have penetrated more deeply. What is the attitude of the major families in Jizhou towards Yuan Shao's entry into Jizhou? Detailed information about each family
, are all in the hands of Jia Rong. To be able to achieve this step, the hardships Xiliang Army has put in is not something that can be achieved overnight.
At this time, Chang'an has stabilized, with the support of Xianlian Pavilion, countless merchants from all over the country come to do business, and Chang'an is in disrepair for a long time, requiring a lot of labor. Chang'an looks lively, and the city is full of waste.
, Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao were also high-spirited and ready to do something big. The two of them firmly occupied the positions of first and second in charge of internal affairs in the Xiliang Army Group.
Jia Xu admonished: "My lord, now our army is sitting on the land of the three auxiliary forces in Chang'an, and Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are facing each other at Panhe. Why don't we fake the emperor's decree and let them stop fighting and reconcile."
Jia Rong smiled and said, "Wen He, what do you mean by this?"
"Gongsun Zan and his lord are old friends, but Yuan Shao and his lord have a deep hatred. Yuan Shao's capture of Jizhou will definitely be a big disaster. With Gongsun Zan in check, he will not dare to act rashly. I recently learned that most of Gongsun Zan's white horse followers were killed and wounded, so I don't expect him to fight.
meaning."
"Many counties in Liangzhou are still waiting for the arrival of the lord's army. What's more, there are Xianbei and other foreigners outside the pass who are ready to make a move and form a good alliance with the princes of Guandong."
Jia Rong nodded in agreement and told Jia Xu to handle the matter. Now that the Xiliang army has developed, the disadvantage of insufficient talents has also become prominent. Even if the emperor is in his own hands, the scholars will not rush to Chang'an. The ministers in the DPRK
There is even more conflict between faces and intentions. Jia Rong must be careful, as there is no way to put him in any important position. The death of Gongsun Zan's white horse Yi Cong in Yuan Shao's hands also sounded the alarm for Jia Rong. Even the white horse Yi Cong, who was famous for his bravery in Youzhou,
Even if their troops are severely damaged, the Xiliang Army will not be much better off if it encounters such a situation.
Gongsun Zan borrowed the donkey from the slope and led his troops to meet in Peiping. When he arrived, he did not forget the three Liu Bei brothers and recommended Liu Bei as Prime Minister of Pingyuan.
Let us also say that when Yuan Shu learned that Yuan Shao had arrived in Jizhou, he hurriedly sent an envoy to Yuan Shao to request thousands of war horses, but Shao refused, causing Yuan Shu to curse and the two brothers completely turned against each other because of this incident.
Yuan Shu always believed that Yuan Shao, who was not as good as himself, was just a commoner. Seeing that Yuan Shao was in trouble, he naturally felt dissatisfied and secretly sent a secret letter to Sun Jian.
The person who sent Sun Jian as envoy was Yuan Shu's counselor Li Feng. He explained in a few words how Sun Jian was attacked by Liu Biao. Of course, the person who wrote to Liu Biao to intercept Sun Jian became Yuan Shao. In addition, Li Feng's three
Sun Jian's generals were so filled with righteous indignation that they wished they could immediately march into Jingzhou, forgetting Jia Rong's instructions.
Li Feng said: "General Sun has courage that no man can match. As soon as the army arrives, Liu Biao's army will not fall apart. When the time comes, my lord will lead an elite division to capture Jizhou to avenge the previous revenge. When the time comes, the general will capture Jingzhou, and our army will capture Jizhou."
After sending people to send Li Feng away, Sun Jian immediately ordered his troops and horses to attack Jingzhou.
Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others felt that something was wrong, but Sun Jian was so angry that he couldn't listen to the general's words.
Sun Quan bowed and said, "Father, I'm afraid this trip will be inappropriate. Liu Biao has many powerful generals and hundreds of thousands of armored men. Now our army is placed in the east of the Yangtze River and is weak. How can we raise an army because of a small grudge? This is a military strategist.
It’s a big taboo, I hope father will think twice.”
Seeing that Sun Quan, who was only eight years old, could already speak with reasonable evidence, Sun Jian felt very comforted. Thinking of Sun Ce who was kidnapped by Jia Rong, he missed him for no reason. Although Sun Ce was young, he was still a fierce general. In the army,
It is quite prestigious. Fortunately, the letter sent from Jia Rong a few days ago mentioned that Sun Ce would be returned to Jiangdong, including Zu Mao.
Sun Jian touched Sun Quan's head lovingly and said with a smile: "Quan'er, there is no need to worry, Liu Biao is just a name."
Knowing that he was being used by Yuan Shu, Sun Jian had no choice but to step forward. With Liu Biao's ability, he would definitely not allow himself to gain a foothold in Jiangdong and own the land of Jingzhou. Liu Biao's intentions were unpredictable. In this case, he might as well become passive.
To be proactive.
After the men and horses under his command were replenished, they once again numbered ten thousand. In Jiangdong, the Sun family still had great appeal.
After Liu Biao received the news of Sun Jian's invasion, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly summoned his generals to discuss the matter. Kuai Liang admonished him and said: "There is no need to worry, sir. Although Sun Jian is known as a fierce tiger, he is just a man. He only needs to order Huang Zu to lead him."
The soldiers can go to Jiangxia to defend against the enemy and write to the Holy One to explain the situation of our army, which is justifiable."
Not only Sun Jian and Liu Biao, but also all the princes in the world were restless after returning to their respective territories. Qiao Mao, the governor of Dongjun, was killed by Liu Dai during Luoyang. The post of governor was vacant. Cao Cao took the opportunity to take over Dongjun and recommended himself.
As the governor of Dongjun, he recruited troops and horses, and practiced day and night. He was assisted by fierce generals from the Xiahou family and the Cao family. Cao's army was so powerful that the surrounding Yellow Turbans and rebellious people did not dare to cause trouble.
Jia Rong of the counties in Liangzhou has no intention of getting involved for the time being. Taking Chaogang means having great righteousness. When the officials of the counties of Liangzhou learned that the capital was moved to Chang'an, they all expressed their obedience. As a general of chariots and cavalry, Jia Rong naturally could not launch an attack.
For officials who bow their heads, Jia Rong will not begrudge the official position. The national treasury is empty, and the official position is just a false name, but the benefits it brings are endless. When the harvest season comes, there is no reason not to hand over grain and grass, as well as taxes from various places.
As long as they dare not to surrender, Jia Rong will dare to advance with his army.
One man was able to ascend to heaven with the help of chickens and dogs, and all the original generals and counselors of the Xiliang Army were rewarded. After the integration, the Xiliang Army was thriving, and all the officers and soldiers were working hard towards the predetermined goals.
After the repairs, the city walls and palace of Chang'an have returned to their former dignity. Although in the eyes of literati, this dignity is not as good as one-third of that of Chang'an or Luoyang in the past, Jia Rong is already very satisfied.
These ministers in the court should be satisfied to have a place to live and not worry about three meals a day. Don't forget that it is the Xiliang army that feeds them, especially the Han emperor. A person's life requires hundreds of maids and maids.
Jia Rong was quite dissatisfied with being served by eunuchs. Even so, there were still ministers who kept talking in private that he had deceived the emperor. Thinking about the life an emperor should have, he felt a little ashamed.
Can that kind of life be called enjoyment?
Jia Rong is very satisfied with the current situation. He can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, let the princes of Guandong fight to the death, and then come out to take advantage. Why not do it.
After Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition, captured Han Fu's Jizhou and attacked Gongsun Zan, his reputation was greatly damaged. He tried many times to get Liu Yu to submit to the unification but failed. On the contrary, Cao Cao was the first to think of it after he occupied Dongjun.
It is still shown that I am the prefect of Dongjun. Everything proves that the Han Emperor of Chang'an still has a great weight in the hearts of the princes. The place of the emperor and the place of great justice.
In a short period of time, the princes of the Central Plains will not gather together again, just like when the six countries joined forces to besiege Hangu Pass. When the strategy failed, the princes from all walks of life followed each other with mutual suspicion and fierce fighting. Of course, Jia Rong was not as good as he was back then.
Qin's strength.
Chang'an itself has a strong foundation. Thanks to the efforts of the Xiliang Army in the city, the scale of the craftsmen's workshops, schools, and medical centers has become larger. All of these are brought about with the support of money. The profits of Xianlian Pavilion are brought to Luoyang
All the jewels that came were put into it by Jia Rong. The goal was to completely renovate Chang'an. As an ancient city, the most important thing was of course the thickness of the city wall and the high defense and moat.
Jia Rong felt very lucky to have subdued Hua Yu. Without the medical team, there would have been many warriors of the Xiliang Army who hated the battlefield and became heroic souls in the Tomb of Heroes.
On a wide piece of land five miles away from Chang'an, there stands a hero's tomb about ten meters high. The names of fallen soldiers are densely engraved on the monument, and generals who have achieved little success have left a few words on it.
Whether it was the Bingzhou Army or the Northern and Southern Army, they all shut up after seeing the Heroes' Tomb. Jia Rong used practical actions to tell all the soldiers that the fallen soldiers were heroes, and everyone was registered in the Xiliang Army. They
Their families will also receive practical benefits because of their bravery. For example, when the city wall is being repaired, there are soldiers in the family who are paid fifteen yuan a day, which indirectly promotes the enthusiasm of the people to join the Xiliang Army.
Soldiers on the battlefield will not worry about what happens after them. Jia Rong will arrange everything properly.
In the eyes of some princes, Jia Rong's behavior was undoubtedly a waste of money and food.
"My lord, Helian died after attacking Beidi County. Xianbei gathered a large army after civil strife, combined with the Huns and Jie people, a total of 200,000 troops came in four directions, including 150,000 Xianbei people, five Huns and Jie people.
Ten thousand."
"Helian is the Great Khan of Xianbei, and the Xianbei people are trying to avenge Helian this time. Therefore, the Xianbei troops in Beidi County will reach 80,000, with about 30,000 cavalry. They are Xianbei's most elite central army and
Que Ju's western army, and Que Ju's generals died in the hands of the lord."
"The Di people in the Jiuquan area followed the Xianbei people and rebelled. They attacked the city in Jiuquan and captured the land. Not a blade of grass grew in the passing villages." Speaking of this, Jia Xu secretly glanced at Jia Rong. The master in front of him could not hear the word about the suffering of the people.
As expected by Jia Xu, what Jia Rong feared was not the 150,000 troops of the Xianbei Huns and Jie people, but the Di people burning, killing, and looting the people. He started to protest and said: "The little Di people actually committed rebellion.
The army will definitely exterminate them when the time comes!"
"Genocide?" Jia Xu couldn't help but feel angry. Even when the Han Dynasty was powerful during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he didn't dare to talk about genocide. He didn't expect that Jia Rong would say this because of some common people. Unlike in the past, Jia Rong now belongs to the Han Dynasty.
Chariots and cavalry generals should not be underestimated even if they say nothing.
"Lord, the Xianbei people's 150,000-strong army is different from the Kwantung Allied Forces. Tan Shihuai unified Xianbei and occupied the former homeland of the Xiongnu. Although there are constant internal wars, the army is strong." Jia Xu said softly.
A word woke up the dreamer. The disaster caused by the Di people was just the scabies disease, but the Xianbei people were the real troublemakers. He possessed the spirit and said: "Thank you sir for reminding me!"
Jia Xu couldn't help but feel moved. In the past, Jia Rong was the governor of the North, with a rank of no more than a thousand stones. At that time, the polite corporal was still within the scope of Jia Xu's acceptance. Now, as a chariot general of the Han Dynasty, Jia Rong is still able to treat him with such courtesy.
, this kind of kindness cannot be expressed by the sentence "A scholar will die for his confidant".
