In Yecheng, Han Fu heard that Gongsun Zan was coming to attack and mobilized 30,000 troops to meet the enemy. However, he was defeated one after another and returned. At this time, in the Prefecture Mufu, he was as anxious as ants on a hot pot. Urgent documents from all over the country were sent to the Prefecture like snowflakes.
In Mufu, within one month, Anping and Bohai counties fell one after another.
Han Fu was panic-stricken and was working hard on his plan alone. Suddenly someone from the palace reported: "Mr. Xun outside the palace has a man who wants to see the lord, saying he can relieve the lord from danger."
Han Fu hurriedly invited Xun Chen and the guests to come in. When he saw them, he realized that they were his acquaintances - Chen Liuren, a senior official.
At this time, Han Fu was like a drowning person. When he saw Gao Gan, he immediately felt like grabbing a life-saving straw. Without even greeting him, he hurriedly asked: "Yuan Cai (Gao Gan's courtesy name) is here. Could it be that he has a good plan to fight against the enemy?"
Can I save myself from danger?"
Gao Gan bowed gracefully and said, "Are you here to tell Mr. Han some news?"
"What news?"
An imperceptible smile flashed across Gao Gan's lips, and he said calmly: "The cavalry general Yuan Shao has left Hanoi, and the army has now arrived in Yanjin."
Han Fu said: "Could it be that he sent troops to rescue me?"
Such a mediocre lord is so stupid! Xun Chen on the side couldn't help but snorted softly after hearing this, and stepped forward and said: "My lord, I'm afraid that's not the case! You think, Gongsun Zan led Yan and took advantage of the victory to go south on behalf of the elite troops.
The response is unstoppable! Yuan Cheqi is also marching eastward at this time, with ulterior motives, which is worrying!"
Han Fu broke into a cold sweat when he heard this, and said in panic: "Yuan Benchu also wants to plot Jizhou, and Jizhou will be in danger!"
Xun Chen took the opportunity and said to Han Fu: "Yuan Shao is the leader of today's heroes, how can he stay under the general for a long time? Jizhou is an important town in the world, Gongsun Zan attacks from the north, and Yuan Shao attacks from the west, how can the general hold it? If Yuan Shao and
The generals have always been friendly and they are allied against Dong Zhuo. I think for the general, it is better to surrender Jizhou to him. If Yuan Shao wins Jizhou, he will be grateful to the general. How can Gongsun Zan dare to do it again? In this way, the general has the reputation of giving in, and
It's safe and sound now. General, please think twice and don't miss this opportunity again."
Han Fu was always timid, and at this critical moment, he couldn't stand Xun Chen's threats, so he immediately agreed. He immediately wrote a letter to the senior official and asked him to deliver it to Yuan Shao.
The next day, Han Fu's men heard about it and came out to oppose it one after another. The long history of Geng Wu and the governor Li Li advised him: "The people of Jizhou respond to hundreds of calls. If they are called, there can be millions. Jizhou is rich in products.
Producing grain can last for ten years. But Yuan Shao is lonely and poor, so he must rely on Jizhou. He is like a baby. Without breastfeeding, it will be difficult to survive. Why should we give Jizhou to him?"
But Han Fu said: "I was an old official of the Yuan family, and I am not as talented as Yuan Benchu. Besides, the ancients have always praised merit based on their virtue, so why do you still blame me?"
Seeing that Han Fu refused to listen, Min Chun, who was not riding on the horse, urgently remonstrated: "The governor of Julu, Zhang Liao, the general who defeated the bandits, and Zhang Wenyuan, the elite and brave general, this man defeated more than 100,000 bandits in the Black Mountains with the strength of a county last year!"
Heishan will be frightened when he hears Zhang Liao's name. If he comes to rescue him, Gongsun Zan will retreat!"
Han Fu was hesitant when he heard this. When Xin Ping saw this, he pointed at Min Chun and scolded: "If my lord listens to Min Bodian's words, he will die without a burial place! Now Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao, and Qu Yi are surrounding Jizhou City on three sides.
We are in danger. If we wait for Zhang Liao to lead his troops to rescue him, our lord may have been captured by Gongsun Zan. By then... hum!"
Han Fu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and nodded cowardly: "That's what Zhongzhi said. What's more, I have already revised the book and sent it to Yuan Benchu. How can a gentleman say something without trusting it? Don't say any more!"
Seeing that Han Fu had made up his mind, everyone could only sigh to the sky and disperse.
After that, the governor stationed in Heyang engaged Zhao Fu. When Cheng Huan heard the news, he hurriedly marched eastward from Mengjin with hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of people. He requested to send troops to resist Yuan Shao, but Han Fu refused and called
His son presented the state animal seal ribbon to Yuan Shao. After that, the family left the office and moved to another place.
Since then, Han Fu has completely cut off his last glimmer of hope!
In July, Yuan Shao took control of Jizhou, took charge of Jizhou's herdsman, and named Han Fu General Fenwei. He had no generals and no military power. Only then did Han Fu realize that he had been deceived. Later, he humiliated Zhu Han through Yuan Shao's subordinates.
In addition to being worried and angry, Han Fu went to the prefect Zhang Miao. Within a month, he committed suicide with a book knife in the toilet out of fear.
Wen Yuan had no idea from beginning to end that Min Chun had advised Han Fu at the last critical moment. Han Fu almost changed his mind after hesitating at that time. If he really called Wen Yuan to send troops to help, Wen Yuan really didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, history is still following its original trajectory, and Wenyuan is also stepping up the final preparations, touring various places and urging people to harvest food!
The first year of Chuping and the second year of Chuping were two years when God was rarely good-tempered. However, there was an earthquake in June of the second year of Zhongping. Julu County was not affected, and nothing happened in Julu County this year.
The war broke out, so the people of Julu got another good harvest that was rare in the war.
However, Wen Yuan knew that this situation had come to an end. In the third year of Chuping, that is, next year, the entire Central Plains would face a severe drought.
"Xiangrui," "There is chaos at the top and bottom, and those below Shangshu Lang go out to collect firewood, or starve to death in the walls."
Then one year later, in 194, the first year of Xingping, there would be another severe drought. "There is little grain, locusts rise, and the people eat each other. One dendrobium of grain costs more than 500,000 yuan."
The good days are coming to an end soon!
During this year's autumn harvest, the amount of wasteland reclaimed by military villages was much greater than last year. There were more than 30,000 military households in total, accounting for almost two-thirds of the number of civilian households! Each military household reclaimed five acres of their own land before spring plowing.
Ten acres of land totals more than 1.8 million acres. According to the military expropriation laws, it is expected that one million dendrobiums of grain and grass will be obtained! Including the land rent paid by the households, the total of grains and grasses will be 1.2 million dendrobiums!
Wen Yuan looked at the golden wheat fields in the wilderness outside the city and was even happier than the people working in the fields! With so much food, half of it did not need to be handed over to the state capital this year. Now he could finally bid farewell to the embarrassing situation of food shortage for two consecutive years.
Hehe, we are rich!
However, due to a large number of civilian households joining the military households, state and county tax revenue has been greatly reduced. This year's total tax collection is only more than 10 million yuan. If it were not supported by the dividends sent by the Zhen family, Wenyuan would soon be too poor to pay.
Account for civil and military wages.
Fortunately, over the past year, refugees have continued to move into Julu. Julu now has more than 80,000 households and a population of more than 400,000. With the support of 1.2 million dendrobium of grain and grass, Wenyuan
He felt more confident! He looked at Qianzhao, who was following him step by step, and said:
"Zi Jing, after the autumn grains are put into the warehouse, a list will be announced to all counties to recruit young men and women to join the army! The number of combat soldiers will be expanded to 10,000! All these 10,000 recruits will be drawn from the original auxiliary army! In the recruitment of 5,000 young men and women
Add them to the auxiliary order!" By the time the recruitment is completed, Wen Yuan will have 20,000 combat soldiers and 20,000 auxiliary soldiers under his command!
