Chapter 103 There are still legends about him in the world
Liu Yu served as the governor of Youzhou for seven or eight years during the Xiping and Guanghe years. He was not dismissed until the year before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which was the sixth year of Guanghe. During that time, Xian Yufu had been Liu's deputy governor.
Yu's work in Youzhou.
When Liu Yu served as Zongzheng in the central government a few years ago, Liu Yu was not able to promote several of his old subordinates. When he became emperor, he naturally had to promote several old subordinates who had been loyal to Youzhou.
At that time, there were three people who were Liu Yu's confidants, one was Xian Yufu, one was named Xian Yuyin, and one was named Qi Zhou. These three people accompanied Liu Yu throughout his term in Youzhou.
Among them, Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin are not brothers, but of the same race.
Moreover, they are also Mahan people, descendants of the Shang Dynasty survivors from Mahan, who are the people of the "Jizi North Korea" mentioned before.
Liaodong is also within the scope of Youzhou. The Mahan people have long thrived in places such as Lelang in Liaodong. Many survivors of the Shang Dynasty also left the land of Mahan and fell into the arms of the Han people.
The cultural, economic, and political exchanges between the two sides have been daily, and they have long been integrated into one, regardless of you and me. Therefore, there are a large number of foreigners in Liaodong, which is sparse and ordinary.
Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin, and Qi Zhou were Liu Yu's confidants. They were summoned to Luoyang by Liu Yu a few years ago to take up positions. One was in charge of the Yulin Guards, the other was in charge of the Tiger Ben Army, and the last Qi Zhou was the City Gate Sima.
Historically, Cao Cao's control over Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was to make everyone inside and outside the palace his soldiers and horses. In this way, every move of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, no matter the slightest abnormality, would be within the scope of his control.
Although Guan Yu's army also controlled the entire Sili, he was loyal to the Han Dynasty.
The most powerful evidence is that the "Hunting in Xu Tian" did happen. It was recorded in "Three Kingdoms". At that time, Guan Yu wanted to kill Cao Cao, but Liu Bei persuaded him to stop him. He thought that it was not clear at that time whether Cao Cao was loyal or traitorous, so he should not do so.
kill.
It can be seen from this that there is an essential difference in status and power between Liu Yu's court and Liu Xie's court, and they are not the same.
Zhu Jun and Guan Yu controlled the peripheral army and stationed troops in Hanoi. Liu Yu's confidants controlled Luoyang and controlled the palace gates. Naturally, there was no one who could threaten Liu Yu's life.
If there is anyone in the world who can deal with the problem of the barbarians on the border of Youzhou, apart from Liu Yu, there are probably only his confidants Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin and Qi Zhou. Not even Gongsun Zan can do it, because Gongsun Zan
He has made too many enemies. Some barbarians are close to him, but even more are hostile to him.
Liu Yuze was good at dancing. Not only did he have high prestige among the Wuhuan people of Xianbei, but also the Fuyu and Haoqian people in the north of Liaodong, later Jilin Province, and Heilongjiang Province, all respected him very much. Because of him, they worshiped the Han Dynasty.
The imperial court paid tribute on time every year.
Therefore, Liu Yu had to come forward in this matter.
It's just that Liu Yu is the emperor now, so naturally he can't get over it. Among the three generals, Xian Yufu is Liu Yu's most effective assistant, and all ethnic groups trust him very much. Therefore, the task of breaking the situation this time and solving Gongsun Zan's siege by foreign tribes is left to him.
Li Xian Yu Fu.
I have to say that things in this world are so wonderful.
Historically, Liu Yu died because of Gongsun Zan. In order to avenge Liu Yu, Xian Yufu gathered an army of more than 100,000 barbarians, gave Gongsun Zan a fatal blow, and helped Yuan Shao defeat him.
But now the situation has become very different. Liu Yu has become the emperor and has never had any conflict with Gongsun Zan. Now in order to deal with the common enemy Yuan Shao, they must unite together. I don't know if they know the history, and they don't know what to think.
But at this moment, at least Liu Yu will never let Gongsun Zan perish before he solves Yuan Shao's rebellion. On this point, whether it is based on the interests of Qingzhou or the Luoyang court, they are all consistent.
Xian Yufu arrived in Changping County, immediately summoned a few friends, and then continued to call friends, and soon gathered hundreds of people.
Of course, these troops are not used to fight, but to contact the old troops.
Those who had a good relationship with the Xianbei people immediately went to the major Xianbei tribes to deliver messages. Those who had a good relationship with the Wuhuan people went to various Wuhuan tribes to deliver the message. Some even went to Fuyu and Haoqiu Kingdoms, but it was just a journey.
Far away, when the reinforcements arrived, the day lilies were already cold, so I just went to try them.
A few days later, at nightfall, Xian Yufu's friend Tian Dan came back. The two sat down in the room. Tian Dan said to him: "Weiguo, the situation is not good. Gongsun Zan underestimated the enemy and rushed in. He was ambushed by the Xianbei people. He was defeated and fled to Zhuojun.
, are now besieged in Laishui."
Due to the slow speed of information transmission, what Tian Dan inquired about was news from a few days ago. They did not know that Gongsun Zan burned Xianbei and killed the leader of Xianbei.
Xian Yufu muttered: "It seems that we must hurry up. The task entrusted to me by His Majesty is to ensure that Gongsun Zan is alive."
"If that's the case, we'll need more people."
Tian Dan said.
"Do you have anyone in mind?"
Xian Yufu asked.
Tian Dan thought for a moment and said, "Have you heard of Yan Rou?"
"never heard of that."
Xian Yufu shook his head.
It was twenty years ago when he followed Liu Yu to become famous in Youzhou. At that time, not to mention Yan Rou, even Gongsun Zan was just a nobody, so of course he had never heard of it.
Tian Dan said: "This man is from Guangyang. He was kidnapped by the Xianbei people as a slave when he was young. Later, with his own ability, he gained the trust of the Xianbei Wuhuan people and was elected as their leader. This is what happened after you went to Luoyang, Weiguo.
It's normal not to know what happened, but he has a very high prestige among many Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes. If we can get his help, great things can happen."
The Eastern Xianbei Lords and the Five Wuhuan Tribes of Youzhou are just some of the largest tribes among them. Including the central Xianbei, there are pastures everywhere outside the vast Great Wall. There are groups of large and small tribes, with more than thousands of people and less than a few.
Hundreds of people, just to name a few.
This kind of small and medium-sized tribe is generally called the Xianbei branch or the Wuhuan branch. The most typical example is Kebineng, who was born in a small tribe. Because he was brave and good at fighting and fair in enforcing the law, he was elected as the leader of this small tribe. He then led the tribe to continue to grow.
, absorbed other Xianbei, and finally established an extremely large Xianbei Empire.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Don't look at Tadun inheriting Qiu Liju's tribe and becoming the most powerful Wuhuan leader in western Liaoning. But this does not mean that the entire Wuhuan people in western Liaoning are
There are millions of his subordinates in Wuhuan, Youzhou, and the five major tribes only own half of them, while the other half are scattered among other tribes.
Yan Rou is like this, but the only difference is that he is a Han, who grew up from a slave to a tribal leader. And like Kirby, because he is brave and good at fighting and fair in law enforcement, he has a great reputation among many Xianbei and Wuhuan branches in the border areas, and everyone is willing to
Fight with him.
"Where is this person now?"
Hearing Tian Dan's recommendation, Xian Yufu immediately became interested. Unexpectedly, many years later, in addition to Gongsun Zan, Youzhou would also produce a figure like Yan Rou. He was truly the most talented person in history.
This feeling is like the underworld boss retreating from the world, and there will always be a new leader of the next generation to take charge of the leading stick.
Tian Dan said: "He is currently the leader of the Wuhuan tribe in the Guangping area, but his younger brother Yan Zhi is in Guangyang. If we can find his younger brother and let Yan Zhi report the news, in a few days, Yan Rou will
It can bring in tens of thousands of troops."
"good!"
Xian Yufu nodded and said to Tian Dan: "This time I bear the important responsibility of the emperor and protect Wuhuan Zhonglang, so I have the power to act expeditiously. If Yan Rou is really as capable as you said, I will
You can appoint him as the Colonel Protecting Wuhuan, and report to the Emperor to grant him a title or title."
Tian Dan smiled and said: "In that case, I will immediately leave for Guangyang to look for Yan Zhi."
"Brother, I leave everything to you."
Xian Yufu patted his friend's shoulder. Although his status was different, his loyalty remained unchanged.
Tian Dan said seriously: "You will definitely live up to your mission!"
At this moment, even in a crisis-ridden night, Tian Dan set off overnight, leading dozens of cavalrymen and flying toward Guangyang County.
At this moment, with the arrival of Liu Yu's imperial edict, the entire Youzhou was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Youzhou covers a very wide area. The one closest to Jizhou is Zhuo County, which later became Baoding City, Hebei Province, and was called Beixin City at this time. The farthest east is Lelang County. The county seat is in Chaoshan County. In later generations, there is a famous
The name is Pyongyang.
From Baoding, Hebei to Pyongyang, it is more than a thousand kilometers, and you can know how big Youzhou was at this time.
The trouble Gongsun Zan is encountering now is far from causing chaos in the entire Youzhou. At most, Daijun, Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, and Wuhuan in western Liaoning in the westernmost part of Youzhou have joined them. The center of the battlefield is still
Zhuojun is closest to Jizhou.
When Liu Yu issued an order, the entire Youzhou was boiling. Western Liaoning, Eastern Liaoning, and even Fuyu and Haoguo to the north of Xuantu County all learned the news.
To the north of Beiping, in the Chengde City area of later times, the leaders of the Xianbei Wuhuan tribe living on the Rushui River received letters and shouted: "This is the call of Duke Bo'an. Duke Bo'an treats us like his sons. I will wait for you."
He is also treated like a father. When the father calls, there is no reason for the son not to obey. Children, go to war!"
In the Supuyan tribe in Liaodong, the tribal elders got the news, bowed their heads and said: "It's bad, it's bad, the leader has made a big mistake. Hurry, send someone to report to the leader quickly. Don't make any mistakes again."
In the Wuyan tribe of Youbeiping, the other leaders of the tribe looked solemnly and looked around and said: "Gong Boan wrote this letter personally, what should we do? The leader should never follow that Tadun brat to hunt down Gongsun Zan.
, we must send troops."
In Fuyu Kingdom, Goguryeo City, King Fuyu heard the message from the messenger and read the letter sent to him by Liu Yu. He was overjoyed and said: "It's my good friend Bo'an Gong. He is now the emperor of the Han Dynasty. If I help him now
If you are busy, he will definitely repay me in the future. In this case, I will naturally help, pass on my order, and mobilize all the troops to help Gongsun Zan in Zhuo County."
The same thing happened in the entire Yanshan Mountains in the southeast and northwest. As soon as countless tribes, large and small, heard Liu Yu's order, they all responded to the call and sent out troops, whether it was dozens of troops or hundreds of thousands of troops, even if
There are only a few people, and they are all willing to contribute so much effort.
Although Liu Yu no longer exists in the world, his legend still exists in the world.
At that time, Liu Yu had done so many favors in Youzhou. Countless Xianbei, Wuhuan, and even Fuyu people, including Haoqian people, were deeply indebted to him and were grateful to him. All the elders and leaders of the tribe, Chanyu, remembered his kindness.
In history, Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Zan.
, trampling Gongsun Zan, who was like a tall building, to the ground.
At this time, it was as if the scene had reappeared, except that he had changed from hating Gongsun Zan to responding to Liu Yu's call and helping Gongsun Zan.
Yuyang Kuangping County, near the later Miyun Reservoir.
Of course there was no reservoir at this time, but there was a river called Baoqiushui that flowed outside the county and nourished the large grasslands near the river into lush green.
The nomadic people need a land with abundant water and grass, so the area near the river naturally became a gathering place for barbarians.
This place was originally inhabited by numerous large and small Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes. These tribes lived together, almost without distinction between you and me.
Yan Rou was captured here in her early years and became a slave. But with her own skills, she gradually gained a certain status. Later, she gained the trust of the Xianbei Wuhuan people and became the leader. Although she was not as good as those big tribes, she was still dominant and powerful.
weak.
Kuangping County is very dilapidated. Hu and Han people live together here. After the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, there has been no official government for a long time and it is managed by the leaders of various tribes. At this time, in a house in the city, Yan Rou welcomed two guests.
One is his younger brother Yan Zhi, and the other is naturally Tian Dan.
The three of them met at the door. Yan Rou laughed loudly, went up to hug her brother, and asked about the situation at home.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yan Rou is inseparable here, so the responsibility of taking care of her parents at home is left to Yan Zhi. Although it is only more than 200 meters from Guangyang to Guangping
Although the two brothers are still together, they rarely see each other, so they have endless things to talk about now.
Tian Dan waited patiently for the joy of the two brothers' reunion. It was not until Yan Zhi ended the topic that the three of them entered the room and entered the hall.
"Brother, let me introduce to you, this is my good friend Tian Dan, whose courtesy name is Chicheng."
"Chicheng, this is my brother Yan Rou, whose courtesy name is Anping."
Yan Zhi introduced them respectively.
Tian Dan cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Chief Yan, I have admired you for a long time."
When his brother's friend came to visit, Yan Rou naturally greeted him with a smile and said, "Since he is my brother's friend, he is naturally my friend as well. Brother Chicheng, please sit down."
The three of them sat in rows, and Tian Dan said seriously: "Chief Yan, stop chatting, let's get straight to the point."
"Please say."
Yan Rou is also a righteous person.
Tian Dan said: "I wonder if Chief Yan knows Duke Bo'an?"
"Of course I know."
Yan Rou was in awe: "Gong Bo'an treated Youzhou Wuwan like his own people, and Youzhou Wuwan also regarded him as his father. I heard that after he returned to Luoyang, he encountered some civil strife, and the emperor of the Han Dynasty encountered unexpected events. All the princes in the court
Promote him as emperor?"
Tian Dan smiled and said: "Yes, now Duke Bo'an is the emperor. Now the world of the Han Dynasty is in chaos. There are hustle and bustle in various places, and Yuan Shao of Hebei is rebelling and threatening Luoyang."
Yan Rou said: "Does Duke Bo'an want me to send troops to help?"
Tian Dan nodded: "Yes, that Youzhou Mu Gong Sun Zan is loyal to the court. Now Yuan Shao is planning to eliminate him. Bo'an Gong must crush his conspiracy, so he sent Yu Lin Zhonglang and Xian Yufu to protect Wu.
General Huan Zhong gathered all the ministries to help Gongsun Zan."
"Gongsun Zan?"
Yan Rou frowned: "This man is very stingy. After he became the general of Du Liao, he only got close to the Nanlou tribe, Pufulu tribe and the Xianbei people in the east who had good relations with him. Wuhuan, who had enemies with him in the past, was punished.
He retaliated and treated small tribes like us with disdain."
Tian Dan shrugged and said, "So isn't this retribution? Duke Bo'an also knows that Gongsun Zan is a man of limited power, but there is nothing he can do now. If Gongsun Zan dies and Yuan Shao occupies Youzhou, it may be detrimental to the court."
"Well, I understand."
Yan Rou breathed a long sigh of relief and asked, "What will be the benefit if I send troops?"
Tian Dan immediately said: "General Xianyu said that if you are willing to send troops, you will be appointed as a captain to protect Wuhuan. You will be reported to the court and given officials and titles. From now on, you will handle all affairs in Wuhuan. Gongsun Zan will open a border market and do business."
As long as Wuhuan people are loyal to the imperial court, all grain, wine, water and salt can be traded."
Upon hearing this condition, Yan Rou suddenly became energetic and said immediately: "In this case, I am willing to send troops."
Tian Dan said happily: "Okay, okay, now General Xianyu is in Changping County. Leader Yan can lead his troops there immediately. Gongsun Zan is already in danger and there is no way to delay."
"I see."
Yan Rou nodded and said, "I'm going to summon the tribal leaders now to discuss the matter of sending troops."
At that moment, he said goodbye to Tian Dan and Yan Zhi and ran out as fast as he could.
Things like this have happened too many times in Youzhou. With Liu Yu's prestige and his current high position, he has become the Son of Heaven. Many Wuhuan and Xianbei people who have an old relationship with him feel that if they can help
Perhaps the policies of the Han court would be beneficial to them in the future, so they happily agreed.
For a time, undercurrents surged on the land of Youzhou, and countless forces were moving in the direction of Changping, just like thousands of streams gathering together to form a vast river.
Luoyang, West Palace.
It was already dark at night, and Liu Yu, who was nearly sixty years old, stood under the eaves of the palace wearing a shabby cloak.
"Husband, it's so late, go to bed."
His wife, Mrs. Li, dressed in silk and satin, came out of the West Palace and advised him to go back and rest.
Liu Yu turned around, saw what she was wearing, frowned and said, "How many times have I told you that at this time the world is uncertain and the situation is chaotic. The court should be diligent and thrifty and not be so luxurious."
Li became unhappy immediately and cried: "I am an old woman who has no children, and now I have become the queen of Han Dynasty. I can't even wear new clothes. What's the point of living like this? Why don't I
I'd rather die."
Liu Yu felt a headache. What he feared most was that his wife would use this trick.
When he was trapped in Chang'an with the Manchu princes, he sent his son Liu He as an envoy to the Kwantung Army, hoping to get help from the Kwantung Army. However, he never returned, and to this day he has not seen anyone alive or dead.
He only has one son. Now he is old and physically weak. He can no longer bear children. He can be said to be a dead child. His wife uses this method to beat him, but he can't do anything. Because he was the one who sent his son out, so he is naturally responsible for this crime.
to bear.
In desperation, Liu Yu could only comfort his wife and let her go back to the house to rest. He sighed and continued to stand outside the hall and looked up to the northeast.
"Is Your Majesty thinking about things in Youzhou?"
Huben Zhonglang escorted Xian Yuyin outside the palace. Seeing that he had not gone to rest and was waiting by his side, he couldn't help but ask.
"yes."
Liu Yu nodded and sighed: "I don't know if Weiguo has arrived in Youzhou safely, and I don't know if Gongsun Zan can escape this disaster. If Yuan Shao cannot be defeated, the Han Dynasty will not know when in my lifetime.
Only then can those rebellions be put down."
He is an old man with no sons and a noble character. He only has one wish in his heart now, which is to defeat Yuan Shao and bring back a descendant of Emperor Zhang from the Hejian Kingdom like Emperor Huan and Emperor Kang to inherit the throne.
In that case, even if he did not pacify the Han Dynasty before his death, at least he would have someone to succeed him, and he would be assisted by Liu Bei, Yang Biao and others, so he could rest in peace.
Xian Yuyin said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Wei Guo has always been reliable. With your Majesty's prestige in Youzhou, if Wei Guo raises his arms, thousands of troops will follow him. As long as he helps Gongsun Zan defeat Yuan Shao, Qingzhou will send troops to regain Hebei, everything will happen."
It’s all too late.”
"hope so."
Liu Yu looked deeply to the northeast and murmured to himself: "I hope that I, an old man like me, can still have the same reputation as I did twenty years after I left Youzhou!"
