(I drank too much at night and came back a little late. I am typing now. I am afraid that it will be past 0 o'clock when I wait for the reply, so I will post an old article first.
(The latest chapter of the city will be revised later), those who have subscribed please read it tomorrow)
Wang Zheng has only been in Shouchun for a few days, and Ye Shi and others have only had contact with him twice today. It is really rash to say "just bow to him" like this.
What's more, not to mention others, Ye Shi used to be a subordinate of Zhang Mancheng (Nanyang Huangjin Qushuai). He attacked Chu Gong, the governor of Sha County, and responded to Zhang Jiao. He also met the great sage in person, not to mention his appearance and body, just his words.
, personality and other aspects, Wang Zheng and Zhang Jiao are not similar at all. He thinks that the "reincarnation of General Tiangong" is pure nonsense.
But they can't help it.
Even if Wang Zheng is not Zhang Jiao, he is still the most powerful representative of the Yellow Turbans today. The three counties are not too much, but they are not too small. At this time, Yuan Shu, although he occupies close to three states, in fact
The counties under its control are actually only six or seven.
Therefore, even if they didn't understand his thoughts, they didn't have time to slowly test and explore.
For one thing, although they were born in a rough place, after so many years of experience, they have become mature with age. They know best that in these troubled times, soldiers and horses are their biggest reliance. Now that there are only one or two thousand men and horses left, Yuan Shu is still willing to give him a
The title of Yellow Turban General, if one day he really becomes a loner, he may even lose this title.
These people had already planned to escape, and saying that the road was impassable was actually just an excuse. The key was that they all knew that even if they could escape from Yangzhou, they would not know where to go.
Liu Biao of Jingzhou in the southwest and Danyang and Liu Yao of Danyang in the east are all clan members of the Han Dynasty. The current chaos in the Han Dynasty is just the prelude to the Yellow Turban thieves, and they have already wanted to get rid of these Yellow Turban thieves.
Both Tao Qian and Liu Bei in Xuzhou came to power by stepping on the Yellow Turban thieves, and the possibility of containing them is not high.
Yuzhou...is also Yuan Shu's territory.
Just when everyone was anxious, Wang Zheng arrived.
Wang Zheng was not only born in the Yellow Turbans, but also started the rebellion as the "reincarnation of Zhang Jiao". In their eyes, this can be said to be a natural "similarity". Everyone has suffered the same hardships, has the same experience, the same enemy, and the same destiny.
Origin...
In a nutshell, we are all of the same kind of people, and have a common destiny.
Of course, the most important thing is that Wang Zheng is not only a Yellow Turban, but also has territory that can provide them with a place to stay.
Another point is that Wang Zheng is powerful.
After being squeezed like this by Yuan Shu, no one has ever thought of working together and signing up for a group to keep warm. People like Ye Shi are willing to take the lead. It's a pity that everyone is drinking, having sex, and complaining. It doesn't matter, and they support you as the leader?
How many songs do you have?
Naturally, they are not willing to be Yuan Shu's cannon fodder, and they are unhappy about using their own strength to weaken and exchange their son's bones for others, especially the fame and wealth of a noble family. But if they choose a leader who is not strong enough, in such troubled times, they, the Yellow Turbans, will
Thieves also have no chance of survival.
These people have been rebelling for who knows how many years. They have done it as yellow turban thieves, horse thieves, mountain bandits and the like. They have killed many officers, soldiers and Han officials, as well as many nobles and common people. They are all unruly people, so no one can
No matter who you are dissatisfied with. Although I know that twisting into a rope is the best choice, if someone really comes out to pick the fight, no one will pay attention to it.
To put it bluntly, I am not convinced.
Wang Zheng is different.
Ye Shi and others have not even asked him how many troops and horses he has under his command. They all know that being able to capture Linzi, Qi County, half of Xuzhou, and even Taishan County, which is well known to everyone in the world, is enough to prove Wang Zheng's strength.
Already.
On that day, Zhang Rao, Xu He and others revolted again in Qingzhou. They claimed to have 300,000 Yellow Turbans, but they stopped at Linzi, were blocked by Mount Tai, and were finally defeated by Cao Cao.
People who are struggling to survive are the most practical people. They have never considered Wang Zheng's age.
Let such a capable comrade take the lead, and everyone will be convinced.
Of course, in terms of knowledge, there is a big gap between Cao Mang and others like Mi Heng and Yu Jin. They only saw the superficial scenery of Wang Zheng, but they did not see that Wang Zheng at this time was still surrounded by enemies.
Xuzhou is not a real peaceful paradise, but has great hidden dangers.
In other words, when life and death were at stake, they didn't care too much. Vision determines knowledge, and environment determines choice. Therefore, they made the request to escort Wang Zheng and fight back to Xuzhou.
For Wang Zheng, it was an unexpected blessing to get the support of these Yellow Turban thieves, but no matter how many troops these people brought, in Wang Zheng's view, it would not greatly improve his overall strength, let alone because of them.
Just abandon the original strategy.
...
A faint light illuminated the darkness in the room.
Everyone was sitting around, and seven or eight shadows were cast on the rough wall, with their teeth and claws showing, and their shadows were vague.
Now that Wang Zheng had made the promise, Ye Shi and others had nothing to say anymore, and they kept talking flattering words. Ye Shi also wanted to serve a banquet. Seeing how dark the night was, Wang Zheng refused and talked about something off-topic. They couldn't just talk about it.
When talking about interests, you must also talk about emotions, it is indispensable.
Both the host and the guest were happy. It could be said that everyone was very happy. After listening to the second watch on the street, Wang Zheng stood up to leave. Ye Shi was smart and took the initiative to promise again that he would spare no effort to attract other yellow scarves to join the party, and Wang Zheng would not be disappointed.
After he left, the others were immersed in joy, smiling from ear to ear, but Ye Shi immediately stopped smiling and frowned.
"Lao Ye, we found a way out, why are you acting like this?" The evil man touched his head and asked in shock: "Aren't you happy?"
"Although this boy is young, the city is deep." Ye Shi sighed and said: "He would rather let us accompany him to work for Yuan Shu, and even promised to supply troops and horses, than go back to Xuzhou. What on earth does he want to do?
?”
The evil man didn't take it seriously and said disapprovingly: "Didn't you hear just now? The general just said that he would not return to Xuzhou until he drove Liu Bei away. It didn't mean that he would never return to Xuzhou. As long as he didn't be fooled by Yuan Shu, he would be deceived by Yuan Shu.
,Enough."
"Anyway, since he said he knew how to supply, what should we be afraid of? All those who will die in battle this time are his men, so why should we feel bad?"
"When we go to Xuzhou." He said with a smile: "If it's good for him, we'll follow him; if it's not good for him, you want to use me as cannon fodder? I'll pat my butt and leave."
"Xuzhou is different from Yangzhou. By then, whether we go to Qingzhou or Liaodong, we will be able to live a prosperous life."
"That's so easy." Ye Shi sneered: "If you really go to Xuzhou, it will be difficult to leave."
...
In order not to be noticed, when Wang Zheng left, Ye Shi gave him two personal soldiers to guide him. He still followed the small road and circled half of Shouchun, avoiding three or four groups of patrolling soldiers. It was almost three o'clock before he returned to the mansion.
Fortunately, there is no martial law in the city yet, otherwise we would be in big trouble.
As soon as he entered the mansion, Gu Jian handed over a bamboo slip, but it was a letter from Xuzhou. Wang Zhengjian raised his eyebrows, and when he got to the bedroom, he opened it and saw that it was full of official script. The writing was powerful and the posture was elegant. The handwriting was just like the person he was. It was Mi Heng's handwriting.
.
Really impressed!
Wang Zheng was speechless secretly. It’s not like Mi Heng didn’t know that he was only barely familiar with Han Li now. The writing was so sloppy that it became more and more difficult for him to read. He had to sigh and ran to the study to find someone first.
He leaned back softly and lit a lamp to identify it carefully.
Mi Heng was as organized as ever. It was divided into three sections: government, military, and business. He gave a detailed report on the development of Xuzhou, Pengcheng, and Taishan counties after Wang Zheng left.
Overall, everything went well.
With the mediation of the Langya noble family, the recruitment of troops was quite effective during this period. Not to mention their combat prowess, many of the newly recruited good family members had a rough knowledge of writing and a stable personality. They were all promoted to officers and stationed in various cities to take charge of military affairs.
The descendants of the Yan family and the Wang family were appointed as assistants to handle government affairs, and a team was roughly formed.
Zhang Zhao also had a lot of talent. He used his family's reputation in Xuzhou and relied on Wang Zheng's successive victories. In particular, he took the initiative to invade Yanzhou, not only captured Taishan County, but also forced Cao Cao to actively seek peace...
This incident can be said to have boosted morale and inspired people's hearts, especially the people of Pengcheng who hated Cao Cao to the core. After this incident, many northern scholars joined in, enriching the local administrative capabilities of Pengcheng counties.
The compilation of household registration is coming to an end, and half of the land distribution has been basically completed. The remaining 50% is not planned to be divided again, and is reserved to attract refugees from other places, especially Guanzhong, Yanzhou and other northern states, which have suffered from continuous famines in recent years. These days have come one after another.
The peasant envoys are being implemented in an orderly manner. As for the Robbery Division, in addition to Langya and Pengcheng, the newly acquired Taishan County has also established one. In addition to being responsible for the burglary and intelligence work in the cities of Taishan, it has also begun to establish an intelligence system, especially
We should pay more attention to Yan, Hebei and other places.
In terms of food and pay for the soldiers, the spring plowing was about to be completed, and the next step was just to wait patiently. However, at this time, Wu Sheng had already begun to lead his troops to sweep away the bandits in Mount Tai. However, he got a lot of food and grass money for nothing, and then used the Mi family to purchase a batch, which was enough for the Heavenly Army.
Eat enough for a year.
The army expansion work is in full swing. Although the selection is very strict, the expected goal can be achieved by the end of the month at least, so that the number of the entire army will be expanded again. The sky army, ground army, auxiliary army, private camp, plus the newly attached Changxi will bring
The number of men and horses, as well as the captives of other bandits, should be more than 80,000.
In accordance with Wang Zheng's order, officers above the rank of uncle in each army were uniformly organized to study in their respective garrison areas by the local supreme commander. Once every three days, they exchanged their experiences in previous battles and discussed whether there were better ways to deal with them; in addition, they selected
Confucian scholars, teach them to read. It doesn't matter if they can't write. At least they have to be able to read. When Dubbo returns home after studying, he will organize the leaders of his own department and hand over what he has learned to them.
At the same time, Zhang Zhao and Mi Heng, at the request of Wang Zheng, selected several military books, made straightforward annotations, and distributed them to various ministries. They also had to study systematically. In terms of instructors, there were not enough, so they had to select them because they were banned from serving as instructors.
If you learn some literacy and explain about reincarnation, you can basically do it once a month.
It's a bit slow for the time being, but there's nothing you can do about it. Let someone who doesn't know the basics teach you? Wang Zheng is worried. Be more patient, and the speed should be accelerated after the apprentices who are forbidden to leave the apprenticeship.
There are a lot of iron mines in the three counties under the rule. Now they are all managed by Xu Fang. In addition, there are many craftsmen accumulated in the past. For a time, both the iron beams and the smelting volume have increased significantly. In addition to the daily army, they
He also built equipment around the city and left jobs beyond daily needs in various cities, and also recruited many orphans as apprentices.
In short, the news in all aspects is good. Wang Zheng is quite satisfied. He went to Yang alone to see if there was a chance to drive away Liu Bei. Is this just to buy time for the three counties to develop and let his own basic situation
Getting bigger and bigger.
Mi Heng and others did a good job, and his journey was not in vain.
By the time I read this, it was already dark.
.....
When I woke up, the morning light had not yet emerged.
In the dim light, heavy tree shadows fell all over the courtyard, spreading in front of the window, like Nymphoides in the water, motionless, and so quiet that it made people feel like they were in a dream. Occasionally, there were sporadic steps outside the door and the gentle beating of soldiers on duty.
The yawn adds a bit of vividness to the coming dawn.
After sleeping for less than two hours, Wang Zheng woke up. He put aside the entanglement of his arms and legs, sat up, and looked sideways. The beautiful maid named Wan'er was still sleeping soundly.
, with a sweet smile on his face.
She bit her finger, wondering what she was dreaming about. Her orange-petaled lips trembled slightly, looking very cute.
Since then, since everything has been done, Wang Zheng, who has an extraordinary physique, has stronger physical needs than ordinary people, so he naturally stopped being pretentious and asked her to sleep with him every day.
I don’t know if it was Yuan Shu’s deliberate arrangement, but the other person was actually only seventeen or eighteen years old. It was funny to say that he rarely spoke to himself when he was awake. He looked like a lost deer, always lowering his head, and occasionally flirting with her.
You looked shy and timid at first glance, but when you fell asleep, you were very restless, with your arms and legs spread directly on Wang Zheng's body, as if you were trying to wrap him tightly.
Wang Zheng looked at her quietly, his eyes flickering, and for a while, he carefully moved away her bare legs that were pressing her again, and stood up with his clothes on.
Although the time for dispatching the army has not yet been decided, as the coach of Guangling Road, he will be busy starting from today.
Under the morning light, Wang Zheng went out early in the morning and rushed to the provincial capital. He first went to see Yuan Shu, and then was led by Ji Ling back to the temporary official residence assigned to him.
Capturing a county is no small matter. Yuan Shu also assigned many subordinates to him. In addition to Ji Ling, there were also some military commanders and generals. They waited in the courtyard for a long time. When the chief arrived, they lined up in a row and knelt down.
He bowed in reverse, and the title of Wang Zheng was changed from "provincial governor" to "general" again.
Wang Zheng humbly returned the gift and helped them up one by one.
In addition to preparing troops and preparing logistics, several people were just looking at the Guangling map to analyze the next march route, how Guangling should respond, etc.
While the discussion was in full swing, there was a soft sound of footsteps at the door. Everyone followed the sound, but it was Gu Jian who walked in.
"What's the matter?" Wang Zheng asked. He was not afraid of what Gu Jian said that he shouldn't have said. The other party had known that there were outsiders here, and if it was something that could not be told outside, he would not have come to report it at this time.
"General, yesterday evening, the troops and horses in the camp outside the city were mobilized. Some of them left the city and went east."
"Cheng Pu should have led people to Danyang first." Ji Ling on the side interrupted: "There are frequent wars on Sun Ce's side, so we should have rushed reinforcements."
