380. Chapter Three Hundred Eighty-Two: The Battle of Yecheng Nine
As soon as the Yuan Army and the Youzhou Army fought, Yuan Army was defeated quickly. Seeing this, Yuan Shao quickly led his entire army to press forward. However, at this moment, the defeat was determined, and Yuan Shao could do nothing. The army did not charge forward to fight at all, but instead fled across the board. Yuan Shao fled.
Look, he yelled: "Heaven is going to kill me, Yuan Shao!" He fell off his horse. Yuan Tan, who was next to him, quickly jumped off his horse, and together with his bodyguards, he helped Yuan Shao onto his horse and fled south.
There was no suspense in this battle, and Yuan's army was defeated. Liu Lin ordered all the troops to pursue Yuan's defeated army, and ordered those who surrendered not to be killed. After giving the order, there were many surrenders. At this moment, only the people on the top of Yecheng city were seen.
There was a white flag flying on the top of the city, and a general in armor shouted loudly on the top of the city: "Zhang He, the defender of Yecheng, is willing to lead the entire army and people in the city to surrender to Yan Hou!" "Zhang He?" Liu Lin heard the sergeant
report, a smile appeared on his face. He was about to order the troops to move in. Guo Jia, who was beside him, quickly stepped forward and said: "My lord, Zhang He is a famous general in Hebei and one of the Four Court Pillars. Be careful of fraud! Why don't you let General Zilong?"
Go and surrender!"
Liu Lin glanced at Zhang He on top of the city, shook his head and said: "Zhang He is a famous general in Hebei. Now that Yuan Shao is gone, just like a good bird chooses a tree to roost, and a wise minister chooses his master to serve. Although it is okay to let Zilong go to surrender, but
But it doesn't show my respect for the wise men. Let me go with the heavy armor and you take me to command the army!" Guo Jia said nothing after hearing this.
Liu Lin led 5,000 heavy armored infantry and headed for Yecheng, accompanied by Dian Wei and Chen Dao. Just in case, Guo Jia quickly ordered Liu An to lead the crossbow army, and Chu Yan led the heavy cavalry to be on standby!
Liu Lin led his troops to the gate of Yecheng City, and saw the city gate wide open. Two generals led the army's generals and a group of civil and military officials and walked out on foot. The general who led them was Zhang He, who was waving flags and shouting on the top of the city tower. They
Seeing a young commander in the Youzhou army, although this man had a handsome face, he had a faint murderous spirit in his body. He knew that Liu Lin had arrived, so he quickly knelt down and said: "Jizhou surrendered General Zhang He, Gao
I will lead all the civil and military officials to greet Marquis Yan!"
Liu Lin paid attention to the two people in front of the team from the beginning. He saw that they were tall and heavy-footed. Although they were surrendering, they still had a heroic spirit. Now he heard that these two people turned out to be Zhang He and Gao Lan, the only remaining soldiers in Hebei.
The four courtyard pillars were immediately extremely happy and jumped off their horses. They were so frightened that Dian Wei and Chen Dao hurriedly followed them. They held long swords in their hands and guarded them closely. Liu Lin took a few steps forward to pull them away.
He helped him up and said loudly: "I have heard about the bravery of the two generals, and I was very happy to see them today! There are two generals here, but Yuan Benchu abandoned them. It can be seen that the defeat of Yuan Benchu was not mine, Liu Lin, but
It’s just him!”
Liu Lin's appreciation made Zhang He and Gao Lan happy. The two of them quickly knelt down and said, "I am willing to serve the lord!" Liu Lin was overjoyed when he saw this. He quickly helped the two of them up and said with a smile: "
Well, with two generals helping me, the Han Dynasty will have no worries!" Liu Lin greeted all the civil and military officials outside the north gate of Ye City, and then, accompanied by Zhang He and Gao Lan, led the Youzhou Army into Ye.
The city is officially surrendered!
At this moment, all the people in Yecheng have come out of their homes. Yuan Jun in Yecheng quickly and consciously entered the role of guard. Dian Wei and Chen Dao looked around and carefully guarded Liu Lin. Liu Lin didn't care and rode on the horse chasing the wind.
, frequently greeted the people who came out to watch! Those people had already heard about the land in other states and counties, and they roared with joy at Liu Lin's arrival. When they walked to the square in the center of Yecheng, Liu Lin was sitting there
Immediately, he stopped and signaled everyone to quiet down.
Seeing that Liu Lin had something to say, everyone quickly fell silent. Liu Lin looked at the expectant people and felt excited. He said loudly: "I am Liu Lin. I have made three agreements with you here today. The first is
Grant land according to the number of people and implement the "equal land system". The second is to abolish the law when Yuan Shao was in power and implement the law of Youzhou. The third is to build a college to educate all the people!" As soon as Liu Lin said these words, the people of Yecheng shouted loudly.
, all knelt down and said in unison: "Thank you so much, Marquis Yan!"
With the support of everyone, Liu Lin walked into Yuan Shao's general's mansion. Now the general was in a mess everywhere. Yuan Shao's family had already fled. At this moment, Liu Lin had no intention of killing Yuan Shao. After all, a phoenix that lost its hair was worse than a phoenix.
Chicken, after Dian Wei and others had cleaned up the General's Mansion, Liu Lin formally accepted the surrender of the civil and military officials of Jizhou in the festival hall of the General's Mansion. This also meant that Jizhou had now become Liu Lin's territory.
Liu Lin, the governor of Jizhou, has assigned Tian Feng to take the post. After all, Tian Feng had served as a governor under Han Fu before and had governed Jizhou. He was familiar with the situation in Jizhou. This was also a comfort to the civil and military officials in Jizhou.
It was Zhao Yun who served as the deputy general, Zhang He and Gao Lan as his deputy generals, and jointly shouldered the important task of guarding Jizhou. After all, there were still 50,000 defenders stationed in Jizhou and Puyang City, including Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Liu Lin.
Relatively assured.
Because Tian Feng, the governor of Jizhou, had not yet taken office, Liu Lin asked Guo Jialai to temporarily serve as the governor of Jizhou and be responsible for handling political affairs. Liu Lin, accompanied by Zhen Yi, went to meet various famous families in Jizhou. With Zhen
The family took the lead, and each family gave part of their land to Liu Lin one after another. Liu Lin implemented the "Land Equalization Order". Although Liu Lin was dissatisfied with these guys handing over a little land, now that Jizhou has just been settled, there are many things to do.
There were so many things to do, and Liu Lin didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, so he didn't delve into it. Fortunately, the Yuan family had a very strong fiefdom in Jizhou. In addition, Jizhou had wars every year, which resulted in a lot of unclaimed land. Only in this way could "
Only then can the Land Equalization Order be implemented smoothly.
Liu Lin stayed in Jizhou for more than half a month before Tian Feng came from Youzhou. Seeing the dusty Tian Feng, Liu Lin thought of Jushou and Shenpei. However, Jushou and Shenpei had already been killed when Yuan Shao was defeated.
Leaving the city, it is said that they went to Liu Bei in Luoyang, while Guo Tu and Xu You went to Cao Ang in Puyang. Whenever he thought about this, Liu Lin could only use a few words to describe it, that is, there must be gains and losses.
!However, in Liu Lin's opinion, the gains outweigh the losses. After all, he is seeking a long-term way to govern the country and stabilize the country. He has different ideas. Even if it is under his own account, it will not have a good effect.
In the fourth year of Chuping, Liu Lin took charge of Bingzhou, Jizhou, and the territory of the three states. He had 500,000 soldiers and millions of households. He became the number one prince in the world. For a time, the world was shocked. Dong Zhuo of Xijing was fighting with Ma Teng and Han Sui.
After the battle, the troops at Tianshui City were defeated, and the Ma-Korean coalition forces with an army of 300,000 troops marched towards Chang'an, Xijing. However, Cao Cao, in order to avenge his family, led his troops to Xuzhou and surrounded Pengcheng.
