Chapter 3543 Requests and Requests

Chapter 3542 Requests and Requests

Youzhou.

Jixian.

Early February.

As the weather gradually became warmer, the victories from Liaodong arrived one after another. The barren and pale Youzhou were breathing a little more. In other words, there was a little more blood, and it looked a little bit more.

Especially in Ji County, it has become lively recently.

What is lively is not the people here, but the gathering of troops.

Once the number of soldiers exceeds a thousand, it will be very large, and now the number of people near Jixian is close to ten thousand. This is a great test for the commander-in-chief. Unlike the huge territory in the northern desert, it is like living in a 100 square meters of earthen house, and living in a 100 square feet of mansion, which are completely different concepts. The narrow space tests the ability to coordinate and coordinate, and making full use of all resources and space has become the most complicated matter for Zhao Yun at the moment.

Moreover, Youzhou was barren and the people were in poverty. Originally, the area around Ji County in Yuyang was quite rich. After all, there was salt and iron. However, during Cao Chun's management, most of the energy was focused on military affairs and did not pay enough attention to people's livelihood and political affairs. If these people's livelihood equipment does not advance, they will retreat. Now some areas still need to be repaired before they can be used.

In addition, there are still many Hu people in the Northern Region Army, which are both good and bad, so the management of the army and other things needs to be stricter than usual.

These things are summarized to Zhao Yun every day, from early morning to evening, almost all the staff are constantly flowing.

Of course, Zhao Yun doesn’t need to be so careful about eating, and military academy non-commissioned officers can handle it, but Zhao Yun nods or allocates some things.

There are only so many materials in total, and the number of people from each county and soldiers from which battalion is allocated must be measured. What each unit does every day or at each stage, who listens to whom the orders, who wants the logistics, and where to live, has become a constant turmoil.

Fortunately, the Cavalry trained grassroots military academies a long time ago, and also promoted education in the military to gradually eliminate illiteracy. Otherwise, it would be even more chaotic. However, learning is not as good as having fun. So even if the Cavalry promotes education and promotes learning, there are still some people who think it’s enough to eat and drink. It’s hard to learn that thing and it’s not fun at all. So after a few years, I still can’t do anything.

This is also a very normal thing, but as the highest commander of Youzhou at this moment, Zhao Yun worked very hard.

And there are troubles in the Northern Region...

Zhang He came in dust and arrived in Jixian.

After Zhang He defeated Juyong, he served as a transit station for the valley, Taihang and Taiyuan, and coordinated the coordination of local troops. When Ganfeng did not win the Liaodong victory, he solved the urgent need for Youzhou during the snow disaster. Although he did not have any great military achievements, he also made considerable contributions.

The Juyong opened by Zhang He did not have to circumvent the desert from Yanshan Mountain. Although the mountain road was rugged and not easy to walk, after all, there were some obstacles from mountains, and the wind, snow and cold would be less severe. Otherwise, even if you didn’t calculate the detour, just the desert under heavy snow was white and there was no coordinate. Forcibly transported, it would be possible that one ten would be left.

Now after spring, Youzhou has gradually recovered some color. Although it is still half a year before autumn harvest, at least there is greenness around the fields. Not only can war horses eat fresh tender grass, but even ordinary people can pick some ferns and wild vegetables in the water meadows as food to satisfy their hunger. The pressure on the food and grass is relatively less.

Zhang He's burden of redirecting was lighter, but he still couldn't rest because new situations occurred.

"The Jiankun tribe of the Desert asked for help?" Zhang He was a little surprised.

The distribution of tribes in the desert and their respective spheres of influence are actually very chaotic. Even if the Northern Region Army has been operating in the desert for many years, and within the influence of the Northern Region Protectorate, it can only plan settlements and migrating nomadic lands of various ethnic groups and tribes. In the further north, it is basically beyond reach. In many cases, it is just a rough range, such as a certain place, or a certain direction, a certain tribe.

The Xianbei in the desert is now defeated, the Wuhuan is extinct, and Ding Ling is defeated by Gan Feng in Liaodong. The rest is Jiankun Rouran, but his strength is still impossible to compare with when the Hu people were strong.

This time Jiankun encountered trouble.

The invasion of the Seminar people.

Jiankun Rouran at the beginning said that he could resist the attack of the Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Semi-Se

After receiving the news, Zhao Yun somewhat despised Jiankun Rouran's combat effectiveness, but there was no way. He had to send someone to the desert to support him, otherwise the back line might be unstable, so he found Zhang He.

Moreover, some of the Hu cavalry who came with Zhao Yun, who were more difficult to communicate and manage, could also take this opportunity to transfer back to Beimo. Otherwise, it would be fine in Youzhou. After all, Youzhou is relatively dilapidated. These Hu people are somewhat clearer in the face of harsh military laws and rare property, but once they enter the Jizhou area, they are scattered to various county towns. It is hard to say whether they can still control and control themselves.

Of course, these things are not suitable for publicizing on a large scale, just as a few important generals know about them.

Zhao Yun is now the highest commander of the Northern Region. Although his next target is close to you, he cannot pick corn and lose watermelons. The security of the Northern Region that should be maintained and the back is stable, so it still needs to be done.

It is precisely because of this that when Zhang He, after a brief rest, began to summon soldiers returning to the desert around Jixian County, he was facing such a chaotic situation at the moment.

Some Hu people are willing to go back, but others are also unwilling to leave.

Logically speaking, of course, it is necessary to identify which people are more suitable to go back and who can stay. However, in the military camp in Jixian, there are noisy noises and occasional frictions among the tribes, daily quarrels for military supplies, and various small war reports, and information gathering is simply too long-winded.

Zhao Yun and Zhang He did not want to do more meticulously and more perfectly, but the whole scene was only two of them, or some people, and they could not quickly clarify the clues. In the end, they could only roughly divide and keep the Hu people who surrendered to the Han army in the early days. In the later period, the soldiers of the Hu tribe were led by Zhang He, and they circled around the desert and met with Jiankun Rouran.

Youzhou itself does not have much supplies, and it is necessary to prepare for the season when the green and yellow are not supported after farming this year, so Zhang He can take away not much supplies. Fortunately, Zhang He himself did not care about these external things and did not care much. He just estimated that the approximate consumption could still be supported, so he took his men and horses to the north along the Gubeikou Mountain Road.

After Zhang He returned to the desert with some of the Hu cavalry, the number of soldiers in Jixian decreased, but in the same way, there were relatively fewer things. Before Zhao Yun could take a breath, the message sent by Wei Yan arrived...

"A battle with northern Hebei?"

Zhao Yun frowned and muttered in a low voice.

Unlike in history, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan did not have much friendship.

Well, maybe even in history, there is not much friendship.

If Jiankun Rouran did not say that there was a crisis in the desert, Zhao Yun might have agreed, or focused on Wei Yan's combat plan, but now...

Zhao Yun is not a person who likes to take risks. All his actions and risks faced must be within the range he can bear.

Although Jizhou and Youzhou are all prefectures, the land size is much different.

In Youzhou, as long as Zhao Yun stays in Juyong, Yuyang and Jixian, he can nail Youzhou tightly, and no one can get up, but if the troops spread to a larger city, Jizhou, which has more cities...

Then it is inevitable that you will be unable to meet the situation.

Zhao Yun thought about it and suddenly remembered someone...

『Come!』 Zhao Yun ordered, 『A few days ago, some son of Cui came... Where is this person?』

Zhao Yun only remembered Cui Lin, and Cui Lin was very sad during this period.

He did not have the identity of Liu Ye, nor did he have the intelligence of Liu Ye. The key point is that Cui Lin could not be like Liu Ye, and when he saw something wrong, he would sway his sleeves and leave.

Liu Ye tried to shake Zhao Yun, but when Liu Ye found that Zhao Yun was firm and could not be deceived at will, Liu Ye immediately put away his tentacles of his exploring, then pretended to be honest, and said goodbye in accordance with etiquette.

Zhao Yun naturally couldn't keep Liu Ye, and there was no reason to keep him.

Cui Lin obviously couldn't do it as free and easy as Liu Ye...

Or smart.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Liu Ye immediately put down his posture, integrated into Zhao Yun's officials to collect information, and at the same time he also solved his own food source. Otherwise, under the circumstances of Youzhou at that time, even if he had money, he would not be able to buy anything!

Cui Lin was unable to do this, so the money he brought was quickly spent.

It’s not that the people who sell food are greedy for money, but that food and grass are extremely scarce in Youzhou at present. Selling one bite to Cui Lin means that he may have to have one bite less. In this case, if Cui Lin had not paid a high enough price, no one would have sold food to him.

If Cui Lin could still go to the woodcutter with others, maybe she could have lasted for a while, but when Cui Lin got to the age of childhood, where did he get a hoe and a hatchet?

So, in the past few days, Cui Lin has been leaving but can't leave, and has no food to eat, and can't even find any good place to rest. It's really miserable. When Zhao Yun's men found him, the first thing he did was to ask if there was any food...

Zhao Yun was also helpless and could only send someone to send some food first.

Cui Lin finished eating voraciously. After burping, his brain suddenly became short-circuited. He didn't know what to say to Zhao Yun. He was on the road and all the words and ideas he had conceived in the past few days, and suddenly he couldn't remember them!

Seeing this, Zhao Yun couldn't help laughing out loud.

Generally, Zhao Yun doesn't laugh, but he really can't help it at this moment...

"Come on! I ask, you say..." A moment later, Zhao Yun stopped smiling and stared at Cui Lin and asked, "Choi, Qinghe, what exactly do you want?"

『This…』 Cui Lin never expected Zhao Yun to go straight in so single shot. Suddenly, all the great principles seemed to surge between his chest and abdomen, but were pressed back by a stomach full of food, and his brain was empty, 『This…』

Zhao Yun's eyes gradually became stern, "If there is another half of false words... you should know the consequences!"

Cui Lin's khan suddenly came down and had a bitter face, "The little one... the little one, of course, is the truth, to say it truthfully... Cui, what Cui wants now is Qinghe...

...

...

February of the tenth year of Taixing.

Xu County, which had just solved a "crisis", has not returned to its former peace. It is still in a tense, anxious and noisy atmosphere and cannot extricate itself.

Although the cavalry army remained unmoved at Hangu Pass, there were still rumors in the court in Xu County, and the people were also anxious. Of course, this "people" did not cover as wide as in later generations.

The discussion was once full of discussion about how to treat the General of the Cavalry who did not abide by the imperial edict and sent troops at Wuguan without authorization, but because of Cao Cao's arrival, these discussions were paused again. Almost everyone was waiting for something, as if they were waiting for the war to pass quickly, as well as someone who could teach whom a harsh lesson, etc.

Cao Cao regained the authority in the court and naturally had to take on the responsibility for the entire situation. Whether it was the emperor or the ministers, he was somewhat off guard about Cao Cao's sudden return, but in the subsequent time, the emperor and the ministers were silent. The atmosphere in Xu County was like a compressed spring, which became tighter and tighter. No one knew when it would rebound or collapse.

In the entire Cao Cao camp, if Cao Cao is the largest flag, then Xun Yu in the Xu County base camp is the flag bearer who ensures that the flag does not fall. However, under the current situation, Xun Yu is also in a dilemma.

Although Cao Cao's defeat was predicted during the previous battle, everyone hoped to win rather than wait for failure. Moreover, in the later stage of the Battle of Hedong, the overall defeat of Cao's army was too fast. Things happened too suddenly, and there was a feeling of a wall falling down and pushing people, breaking the drum and hitting thousands of people, which caused a lot of chain reactions, which made him somewhat smart and wise as Xun Yu, and he was also a little busy and exhausted.

Nowadays, the situation in the entire Shandong and the heart of the Central Plains is no longer optimistic.

At this time, the gathering in the lobby of the Prime Minister's Office were several of Cao Cao's core ministers.

"Most of them watch the fun, how many people really care about the country?"

Cao Cao sat on his head, and although his temples had a lot of hair, his waist and back were still straight.

"For a country, one should be brave enough to serve. How can one look forward and hesitate and retreat? As the saying goes, do his best and then leave the will of heaven. What's more, the destiny of heaven is unknown at this time, and there are many variables on the battlefield. Even if the army of cavalry goes out of Hangu in the east, it will still go deep into the army alone! This is really a good opportunity for us!"

That's it, but everyone knows the actual situation.

Since the cavalry started their army, they often defeated the many with fewer troops, and they were not "going deeper alone" once or twice. If they were really "going deeper" because of "going alone", Fei Qian would probably have died a few times, and his body turned into bones!

Fei Qian is still doing well now, which means that just by relying on this "in-one army" is not difficult for the Cavalry Army!

Cao Cao knew this too, so he looked around and said in a deep voice, "If the military armor was used as a plan, Xinmang would have changed the world back then!"

This is a resounding voice, and everyone's expressions are straightforward!

This is what it means to be said.

That's true.

The failure of Wang Mang's new dynasty and the successful establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty were certainly the result of the joint action of multiple factors, but the most important point was that Wang Mang touched the fundamental interests of Shandong Central Plains, especially Yuzhou and Jizhou, which were dominated by the landlord class!

Guided by Confucian idealism, Wang Mang tried to restore the "Zhou Li" of the Western Zhou Dynasty and implemented a series of retro reforms, one of which was to take back the land, prohibit buying and selling, and redistribute it according to the well-field system. This policy not only directly touched the interests of the powerful landlord class, but also violated the interests of ordinary people's self-cultivated farmers!

Does anyone like the land that I have worked hard for decades and finally bought, but in the end, it becomes the country with a command? So where is the meaning of my hard work for a lifetime? Dedication, sacrifice? Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness?

Wang Mang obviously failed to reconcile this, nor did he propose solutions and measures to resolve land annexation. Instead, it made everyone from the landlord class to the self-cultivated farmers opposed Wang Mang's system, and also caused him to lose the foundation of the New Dynasty.

Because he lost the support of the people, Wang Mang's taxes could not be raised, and to suppress rebellions in various places, it required a lot of expenses. Therefore, Wang Mang had a headache and had a headache. In a short period of time, he reformed the currency system four times and issued a fake currency, including Daquan Fifty, etc., which further damaged the credibility of the Xin Dynasty, caused prices to expand, and the entire public complaints were full of people.

In addition, Wang Mang's lack of "legality" was also an important factor in the later military's new impetus and corruption. Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty through "abdication". Although he used prophecies and Confucian theories to package legality, the Xin Dynasty always faced an unavoidable dilemma, that is, Wang Mang violated the key core of Confucian ethics since the Han Dynasty, and his behavior of usurping the king was difficult to be completely accepted by scholars in terms of morality.

The most important thing about Liu Xiu's success in rebuilding the Eastern Han Dynasty and continuing the political framework of the Western Han Dynasty was that Liu Xiu clearly opposed Wang Mang's institutional reform, which met the psychological expectations of the bureaucratic group and the powerful.

And the old stories of Wang Mang seem to be somewhat similar to the current situation!

Cao Cao proposed this point quickly boosted the confidence of his subordinates.

Wang Mang!

Liu Xiu!

Old things and old times, this life and this life!

only……

Will everything really be so similar?
