In this battle, except for a few who escaped, others were either captured or died.
Guan Yu didn't seem too excited about a great victory. Not to mention the famous generals on the other side, in his opinion, they were even inferior to the middle and low-level officers under Liu Bei's command.
At least, these middle and low-level officers in Liu Bei's army have a 100% literacy rate, and they know the infantry drill manual and thirty-six strategies compiled by Wang Xuan by heart.
Moreover, the quality of soldiers is not the same. Now, more and more people are literate. In the army, Wang Xuan has ordered all soldiers to use their daily training time to become literate.
Anyway, a small blackboard and 180 boxes of chalk per person are not worth much. Nowadays, blackboards are basically produced by mechanization. Together, they are not worth a day’s meal.
As for teachers, they are simply instructors in the military. While teaching literacy, they should also spread the ideas of protecting the country, being loyal and brave, firm will, and unwavering. Moreover, the effect is better than pure propaganda.
After all, an army without culture is a stupid army, and a stupid army cannot defeat the enemy!
Wang Xuan's plan is long-term. The more literacy the troops have, the more loyal they will be to the country and Liu Bei, the higher their spiritual will will be, and their combat effectiveness will be higher. At the same time, it will also fundamentally eliminate the possibility of military commanders having monopoly power.
When everyone from mid-level and low-level officers to small soldiers has their own ideas, senior generals can only dream if they want to use them as private soldiers.
In addition, after batches of people retire, Liu Bei's control over the grassroots will be greatly strengthened, making it increasingly difficult for many grassroots officials to deceive their superiors and deceive others.
"Guan Ping."
"The end will be here."
"Take four thousand men back to capture Qiantong County, escort all the supplies out, and send them to Chonghe County." That is why Guan Yu said such a long sentence to his own son.
"The last general has taken the order." Guan Ping was delighted. This was his first time leading troops, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Wait a minute." Xi Zhicai shouted, looked at Guan Ping and said, "Frankly, let the big families in the city bring out the food, and then distribute it to the local people in our name. Remember, it is our name. If
If any wealthy family is unwilling to pay for food, then it is because they are rich and unkind, and you are allowed to use some means."
Guan Ping looked at Xi Zhicai and then at Guan Yu. Seeing that Guan Yu had no objection, he agreed and turned around to leave. But in his heart, Guan Ping's evaluation of Xi Zhicai changed again, "This person is very insidious and looks gentle."
The writing is actually very bad, but I’m still a little excited when I think about it!
In fact, Guan Ping really wronged Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai said, did he learn this from Wang Xuan?
After all, most of Yuan Shao's soldiers were locals. There were so many casualties this time. Although there were no swords and guns in the battle formation, the people were inevitably full of resentment. This generosity could restore Liu Beijun's image to some extent. Besides,
Bohai is the place where Yuan Shao started his career. The aristocratic families here are all loyal to Yuan Shao. It doesn't matter if Liu Beifang is more ruthless.
They just asked for some food, and they ransacked their homes and killed people. They were already very polite. Do they still expect to be the ancestors and support them?
Of course, this was also a signal for Wang Xuan to ask Fang to go out.
This was a signal to all the Han aristocratic families. Although Liu Beifang promoted papermaking and books by saying that he was a man of merit, he had no intention of killing all the aristocratic families. Of course, he was just being polite, and the price he had to pay was indispensable.
In fact, this reassures the major families. If Liu Bei is not hostile at all and is polite to them, they will feel uneasy. They always feel that Liu Bei is acting and will kill them when the time comes one day.
In fact, Wang Xuan had no objection at all to these aristocratic families in the Han Dynasty.
On the contrary, it is full of expectations!
Nanpi's support finally came too late. By the time they arrived and reunited, Guan Yu had already left for a few days, and what was left behind... couldn't be called a mess, just...
Guan Yu used the city walls and gates to test the Yuehua Three Slashes every day, hoping to compress the power into one strike. The result was that the thousand layers of city walls and city gates collapsed a total of more than 200 meters. Yuan Shaofang didn't have cement like this.
The product needs to be repaired... and it will take a while.
At least until the repairs are completed, it won't work without stationing a large army here. Who knows if Guan Yu will take the opportunity to lead his troops to fire a few more rounds.
A great war ended like this. If it weren't for the loss of more than 10,000 soldiers and the collapse of the more than 200-meter city wall, there would be no sign of war at all. The two sides returned to confrontation again, but the military strength of Chonghe County increased from the original eight.
One thousand became twenty thousand.
There is only one purpose, to prevent Guan Yu from having the courage to go around and attack other places.
"Bah!" Yuan Shao threw the battle report from Nan Pi on the table and asked with an ugly face: "Tell me how to deal with that straw sandal seller!"
"Delay!" Shen Pei stood up and said: "Currently, the biggest enemy is still Gongsun Zan. We must eradicate the roots. If Gongsun Zan is allowed to slowly recover, it will be even more difficult to destroy Gongsun Zan. As long as Gongsun Zan is there to worry about his future, our army will
Don’t think about developing south of the river with peace of mind.”
Others also agreed with this view. There was no way. Bingzhou had not yet produced much, and the war with Gongsun Zan was very expensive. In a short time, there was no way to start a war on both sides.
However, they had no idea that under the control of Guan Yu and the harassment of Huang Zhong, Gongsun Zan had already begun to migrate people from the villages outside the city after blocking the news.
Of course, according to Wang Xuan's idea, it was not Gongsun Zan who took action, everything was a problem of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans...
Yes, the serious Qingzhou Yellow Turban remnants are here, and their methods are much better than before. At least they don't kill people indiscriminately, but they still do things like burning houses. Fortunately, these Yellow Turban remnants have inexplicably abundant food and grass in their hands, so, in
Under the threat of knives and the temptation of having enough food, the people began to migrate northward.
As for the grain and grass supplies...of course they were donated by the big households in Jizhou. Now that Gongsun Zan wants to withdraw, they still haven't expressed their support?
Of course, there are still some people who are ignorant of current affairs. Of course, Gongsun Zan will not be lenient, and he will not destroy the family, but it is natural to rob them all. At this point, the big family has shown even more thoroughness.
Afterwards, Wang Xuan said to Gongsun Zan, "Isn't this good? Everyone is harmonious and it's easy to get together and part ways. Isn't it good to just say happy breakup!"
In this regard, Gongsun Zan could only roll his eyes. If it were him, he would not be so polite. It would not be possible to just come to the door and grab it, but he would still force the order to pass on.
In fact, Wang Xuan's temper is much better now. Before, his methods would not be any better than Gongsun Zan's.
There are large armies outside blocking the news, and there are professional migration experts inside. One after another, patches of no-man's land appear on the land of Jizhou.
