Chapter 225 Negotiations with the Gongsun Family! Attack Wuhuan!
Chapter 225 Negotiation with the Gongsun family! Attack Wuhuan!
Qin Yuan sent a signal of goodwill to Youzhou officialdom and the court through the county magistrate Pingdong!
The impact of this matter is getting bigger and bigger, and if it continues, it may be difficult to end.
Not only did Qin Yuan not want to see this, but the Yellow Turban Army and the imperial court also didn't want to see it.
And the strength Qin Yuan showed made all parties see that he was by no means as easy to provoke as imagined.
If you still think that he is just a small copycat force, you will definitely make the same mistakes again, just like Gongsun Zan.
As for the imperial court, the Yellow Turban Army worked hard to win over Zhang Rang, one of the ten permanent ministers, as well as some internal officials, and took advantage of the struggles between major official groups to successfully change Emperor Liu Hong's attitude and confer Qin Yuan the title of Pingyun.
The county magistrate.
Although it is only an escrow, in fact the entire Pingyun County is under Qin Yuan's control, and his words are more effective than the former county magistrate Pingdong.
As for the canonization of Qin Yuan as General Zhenglu, the purpose was to let him lead the army to deal with the invading Wuhuan tribe.
If a general conquers the four directions, conquers the east, conquers the west, conquers the south, and conquers the north, then his true power is greater than that of heaven, and his status is only lower than that of the three princes.
But this General Zhenglu was just a general with a name but no authority. He even had to send out the troops to conquer Wuhuan himself.
It can be said that the imperial court only issued an imperial edict to give Qin Yuan two official positions with title but no power.
But for Qin Yuan, this has already achieved his goal.
After all, this rebellion has too many forces at stake.
The entry of the Wuhuan alien race made the situation even more chaotic.
Being able to achieve this step has already met expectations.
"This mission is very different from the previous one!"
"Open a large number of tiger symbol exchanges and troop exchanges!"
"As long as you have enough points, you can summon an army of millions or even tens of millions!"
"It's like naming the mission to destroy the Wuhuan tribe!"
Qin Yuan looked at the mission of the War Temple.
The content and rewards of the mission are different from previous missions.
At the same time, there is a very special restriction during the duration of the mission.
That is, people with Wuhuan blood cannot be transferred to soldiers of the Temple of War!
This surprised Qin Yuan.
Although Qin Yuan did not have any sympathy for foreigners.
But people like the Wuhuan, Xianbei and even the Xiongnu lived in the north all year round and were known as the Ma people!
Proficient in riding and shooting, brave and good at fighting, he is a natural soldier!
Qin Yuan has long had ideas about these foreign races, and that is to conquer them and regard them as an important source of troops for his own forces.
You should know that many of the famous elites in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, such as the Youzhou Cavalry, Bingzhou Flying Cavalry, and Xiliang Iron Cavalry, had foreign ancestry or mixed blood.
Youzhou is adjacent to the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes, many of whom are Wuhuan and Xianbei people.
Bingzhou is adjacent to the territory of the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu Chanyu was canonized by the Han emperor. When the Han Dynasty was strong, it became one of the important sources of troops.
Most of the time, when civil strife broke out in the Central Plains, the imperial court would dispatch troops from the Xiongnu to suppress the civil strife.
Needless to say, most people in Liangzhou have Hu and Qiang ancestry.
Qin Yuan sent out a signal to the outside world that he was willing to take the initiative to fight against Wuhuan. A large part of the reason was that he took a fancy to the Wuhuan tribe and was ready to conquer Wuhuan and take them into his own possession.
It’s just that people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations.
I didn't expect that the mission of the Temple of War would have such a special mission.
Moreover, this task is different from the previous ones, and can be refused.
But in the end Qin Yuan still accepted the task.
After all, Qin Yuan was more interested in the soldiers from the War Temple than the Wuhuan tribe's military sources.
As for the Wuhuan people who can't change jobs, they can't change jobs.
This limit is only for half a year, which is the duration of the mission.
After this period, Qin Yuan will not be subject to any restrictions even if he transfers Wuhuan soldiers to different positions.
As for why this mission is like this, Qin Yuan also got the reason from the intelligence coming from the front line.
"This Wuhuan tribe is simply cruel!"
Qin Yuan said angrily, slamming the information in his hand to the ground.
The content of the letter is very simple.
It is recorded that after the Wuhuan tribe captured Zhenyan City, they actually launched a bloody massacre of the city.
In all the cities and villages that were conquered, the people were brutally massacred.
In less than two days, many cities fell and more than one million people were killed.
Within a hundred miles, it became a purgatory on earth!
"Wu Huan's move is not difficult to predict!"
Liu Bowen sighed softly and said.
"I have thought about this, but I didn't expect that they would not even spare ordinary people!"
Qin Yuan clenched his fists and blamed himself deeply. "This is all my fault!"
Although Pingyun County fell into a rebellion that lasted for more than a month, players attacked civilians in order to plunder money.
Most of them are for money, not for human life.
But by doing this, the players have already aroused public anger and dissatisfaction among many noble forces.
But the Wuhuan tribe's move to massacre the city was even more frenzied. This was a complete break with the Han Dynasty.
Qin Yuan previously thought that Wuhuan's attack on the city would be like a player at most, and because he had to deal with Gongsun Zan, he did not send a large army to guard it.
I just didn't expect that his one thought would lead to such tragic consequences.
"My lord, there is no need to blame yourself. Who would have expected that the Wuhuan tribe would not follow the rules?"
Liu Bowen consoled him. "I have made a precise plan to counterattack the Wuhuan tribe overnight. Please take a look at it, my lord!"
Qin Yuan looked at the paper handed over by Liu Bowen, which contained some plans for dealing with the Wuhuan tribe.
They had discussed this yesterday.
What Liu Bowen did was to improve the plan.
"You did a good job, just follow your plan!"
Qin Yuan nodded.
In fact, the content of the plan is not complicated, and there is no need to use any clever strategies.
After all, this still depends on hard power.
And according to the information they received.
Wuhuan's army for this invasion was about three to four hundred thousand.
However, this is not the entire strength of the Wuhuan Army, but only a vanguard army.
Followed by more than a million troops, arrayed in the northern part of Yanshan.
Because of the barrier of Yanshan Mountain, if you want to cross Yanshan Mountain, you need the teleportation of Baize Mist.
Without Bai Zeling, we can only rely on luck.
Wuhuan's army of 300,000 to 400,000 was also an army that had been transported over many days.
It will take a lot of time to teleport millions of troops to the land of Youzhou.
"Lord, are you looking for me?"
Bai Qi walked in from outside the house.
"Originally, we were planning to let the army adjust for two days, but now it seems that this is not necessary!"
"The war in the north has begun, and you will lead the four legions northward today!"
"Annihilate the Wuhuan army in one fell swoop, leaving no one behind!"
Qin Yuan said bluntly, telling Bai Qi what the Wuhuan tribe had done, and also told Bai Qi about the war plan.
Due to Bai Qi's outstanding performance in the battle, he gained Qin Yuan's utmost trust.
Therefore, this time, Bai Qi still led the troops to deal with the Wuhuan tribe.
Liu Bowen, on the other hand, was responsible for planning behind the scenes and handling post-war affairs in Pingyun County.
Liu Bowen's internal affairs attribute is 91 points, which is already a very high value.
Even the county magistrate Pingdong and the county magistrate Zhang Ye's internal affairs attributes are not as high as Liu Bowen.
Another point is that Liu Bowen is one of his own, and everything is considered for Qin Yuan, so he can be given full authority to handle it.
Although other officials have surrendered to him, they cannot yet call him one of his own.
"Leave this matter to my subordinates!"
Upon hearing this, a fierce murderous intention flashed in Bai Qi's eyes, and a terrifying evil spirit surged out.
Fortunately, the strength of several people was relatively high and they were not affected at all.
If an ordinary soldier faced this evil spirit, he would fall into a coma, or fall to the ground and die.
Apart from the war in the north, the most important thing now is to restore the people's livelihood in Pingyun County.
Pingyun County is his place now, and even as his core base, it is natural to build it well instead of remaining in chaos.
"From now on, all the major cities in Pingyun County will be lifted from war readiness, and business links with counties and counties will be restored at the same time. You can continue to do business as before!"
"The only condition is that I need you to purchase a large amount of grain, ore and other materials from the outside world. The larger the quantity, the better!"
In the reception room of the City Lord's Mansion, Qin Yuan looked at the hundreds of people present.
They are all powerful landlords and wealthy businessmen from Pingyun County.
Especially the business family headed by the Yun family.
They are the most critical link in restoring Pingyun County's prosperity.
Although Qin Yuan captured the entire Pingyun County, confiscated all the supplies of the players' coalition, and obtained a huge wealth from major families.
However, the fighting over the past few days has severely consumed all kinds of materials.
Especially food, which is almost running out!
Not to mention Pingyun County's population of nearly 20 million, the size of the army under his command alone has expanded to 800,000, and it is only a matter of time before it exceeds one million.
Even when there is no war, a large amount of food is consumed every day.
Once a war breaks out, material losses will increase several times.
Logistics issues are an important factor in determining the outcome of a war.
There will only be more fighting in the future.
Destroying the invading Wuhuan army was just the beginning.
In his plan, he also wanted to counterattack the Wuhuan tribe and kill them beyond the Great Wall.
Then it will be an expedition, and we must ensure that the army's logistics supply is sufficient. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the army is, it will be difficult to win without material support.
Moreover, there is only half a year left before the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
At that time, the whole world will be in chaos.
This is one of the few times when you can purchase supplies from the outside world at low prices!
When the war breaks out, there will be gold!
That's no joke.
At that time, food and other supplies will skyrocket, and if you want to buy food, you must pay a high price.
"Master Qin, this is no problem!"
"It's just that I heard that all roads leading to the outside world in Pingyun County are blocked!"
“Even if we want to do business, we can’t do without it!”
Yun Fan, the representative figure of the Yun family, said.
After hearing Qin Yuan's words, everyone showed joy at first. After all, this was the result they all wanted to see.
After all, they are in a war-torn area and they simply cannot maintain their previous business.
And they were blackmailed by Qin Yuan, so they urgently needed to make money to regain their blood.
However, there is a problem involved.
It is said that the road is blocked, but this is only a superficial reason.
The underlying reason is that Pingyun County has been blocked by the power of the aristocratic family headed by Gongsun Fu.
Their shops and business channels outside have also been greatly affected.
Qin Yuan lifted their restrictions, but not elsewhere.
They can only do business in Pingyun County at most, and cannot do business in other places at all.
"Don't worry about this, just make preparations first!"
Qin Yuan said, "As for business matters, from now on, all power will be handed over to Liu Bowen for management. His words are mine!"
At the same time, Liu Bowen was introduced to everyone.
"Thank you for taking care of me in the future!"
Liu Bowen smiled.
"Manager Liu, you're welcome!"
Everyone responded enthusiastically.
They had long seen the middle-aged man beside Qin Yuan, but they did not expect that this man would be so valued by Qin Yuan.
This is simply inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
As for Pingdong, Zhang Ye and others who originally held great power, although they were also present, they never said a word.
Each of them is a shrewd businessman, and they naturally know who will be in charge of Pingyun County from now on.
As long as the imperial court approves it, Qin Yuan will be the local emperor of Pingyun County from now on.
"My lord, Gong Sunfu, the governor of Shanggu County, sent someone to ask for an audience!"
At this time, a soldier reported at the door.
"Send them in!"
After Qin Yuan finished speaking, he looked around at everyone, "This is the end of today's meeting. From now on, you will handle my affairs well and I will never treat you badly!"
"Yes, Master Qin!"
Everyone said in unison, then stood up and left.
"Yunfan, stay!"
Qin Yuan looked at one of the figures and shouted.
"yes!"
Yunfan stopped and returned to his original seat.
It's just that unlike before, he was a little restless.
After all, he was facing his old master and his new master this time.
Soon, three people walked in from the door.
"My Lord, Gongsun Hong, has met the leader of Qin Village!"
Gongsun Hong said politely to Qin Yuan.
"sit!"
Qin Yuan stared at him.
Although he has never met this person, he knows a lot about him.
Gongsun Hong is the spokesperson of the Gongsun family in Pingyun County.
This person is indispensable behind the players' backs and the Yun family's participation in this rebellion.
Unexpectedly, the person Gongsun Fu sent to negotiate this time was actually him.
This is not surprising.
After all, if we send people from the county town, it will probably take a lot of time.
It can also be seen that the Gongsun family wants to solve this problem as soon as possible than Qin Yuan.
"How have you considered my conditions?"
Qin Yuan went straight to the topic and said.
"We will talk about the conditions later. First of all, I would like to congratulate the leader of Qin Village. No, now it should be Qin County Magistrate and General Qin!"
Gongsun Hong said with a smile.
First, he expressed congratulations to Qin Yuan and informed Qin Yuan of the court's decision.
This was just information revealed by the imperial court, and it spread to Youzhou official circles first.
As for the formal imperial edict, it will take some time to be sent.
After receiving the court's attitude, Gongsun Fu no longer hesitated.
Moreover, in order to rescue Gongsun Zan as soon as possible, he even did not hesitate to let Gongsun Fu negotiate with the Qin Yuan court immediately.
"What do you mean by this?"
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Gongsun Hong smiled and immediately told the court's decision.
He even shamelessly said that the Gongsun family had put in a lot of effort behind this, hoping to get a share of the credit.
"As expected!"
Qin Yuan was not too surprised.
But the stone hanging in my heart finally fell.
After all, he still doesn't have the strength to fight against the entire Han court.
However, he would not let go of Gongsun Zan just because of two official positions.
Moreover, this grudge against the Gongsun family has been forged because of this. How could it be so easily let go!
Another point is that Gongsun Fu is now Qin Yuan’s immediate boss. It would be too easy to cause any obstacles for Qin Yuan in the future!
