Time flies, and time passes. It has been one year since Duan Ye became the governor of Liangzhou. This summer, Duan Ye finally got the imperial seal.
Many things have happened this year, but the overall situation in the world has not changed fundamentally
The Crown Prince Fu Hong considered it again and again, but chose to trust Fu Shen. This time Fu Shen did not disappoint him. Fu Shen personally led the army and took only half a month to recover the entire Hedong territory.
The land of Hedong has a hub position in the entire northern region. In fact, when Fu Rui sent troops to fight in the east, Chu Yu said that once Liu Yu was defeated, there was no need to use Huaiyang as the base, but the land of Hedong could be chosen because
The land of Huaiyang is beneficial to the south, the north, the infantry navy, and the cavalry field battles. It is the land of Hedong. There is a barrier of Taisheng in the east, and the west is the Yellow River is the one that is bounded by the north, and there is a
The vast desert and Yinshan are blocked outside, while Yanmen Pass is dangerous inside. In the south, there are Shouyang, the base pillar, the city, and the Wangwu Mountains and riverside, forming an indestructible barrier. Then to the south are Mengjin and Tongguan.
As a gateway to Hedong
In addition, compared with Guanzhong, Central Plains and Hebei both overlook the three sides, and the terrain is very high. The formation of mountains and rivers has made Hedong form an extremely favorable position and situation in the inside battle. It can attack from three sides, but if it is not good, it can be done.
For Fu Rui, he is a rare base in troubled times.
Unfortunately, Fu Rui's movements were still a step slower, because he surrounded Liu Yu for a long time, but he was eventually defeated by Liu Yu's empty city plan. The army of 100,000 was greatly damaged. At the same time, Xie An was in the fierce political struggle in Jiangnan.
With huge losses in exchange for temporary victory, Xie Xuan resisted the pressure and led three thousand servants to set off from Jingkou and headed north. He continued to join along the way. When the army arrived in Pengcheng, tens of thousands of people were crowded and powerful.
shock
Fu Rui had no choice but to retreat. According to Hanoi, the base was also under great loss of national strength and was unable to fight. After Liu Yu and Xie Xuan merged, they led their troops to retreat south.
It was precisely this time that Fu Xian led his troops north to capture Murong Chui in the entire Hedong area. Although he achieved a decisive victory in the struggle with Murong Chong, Murong Chong and Li Qianshan disappeared, and the ancient capital Yecheng was also burned.
Murong Chui's tribe suffered great losses and was unable to take over Hedong.
In Guanzhong, Fu Hong finally stabilized the situation. After great efforts last year, the 800-mile Qinchuan harvest was a bumper harvest. At the same time, Fu Hong made many attacks to compress Yao Chang's power in a corner of Guanxi. At the same time, for a long time
Fu Jian, who did not show up, officially came forward and announced his abdication to Fu Hong. After several years of responsibility, Fu Hong finally became the King of Qin in a legitimate way!
As for Duan Ye, after taking Guzang and Lu Guang disappeared, no one in Liangzhou was his enemy. The eight counties of Liangzhou were almost decided by an edict, only Gaochang County tried to resist, but there had been a long time ago.
Duan Ye, who swept away the fallen leaves, will no longer give them any chance. Now they are already strong and will naturally defeat them in one battle.
Liangzhou won without any suspense, but Duan Ye has become the actual ruler of Liangzhou, but he has never been granted the imperial title, because in Chang'an, it is impossible for Duan Ye to agree with Duan Ye's behavior from a moral point of view.
If the subordinates overthrow their superiors, if they express an imperial title, it means that they think it is reasonable to do so. In this way, if all regions follow suit, how can Fu Hong rule?
Duan Ye is not too late. If he doesn't have a title, he won't have a title. Duan Ye can take the opportunity to sort out the internal affairs first.
First of all, they naturally replaced all local officials, Duan Ye’s school and cultivated a group of talents. These people are all down-and-out scholars, but they are also very motivated. Duan Ye personally served as a teacher and taught them for a long time.
In addition to learning what they would learn in this era, Duan Ye also passed on a lot of experience he gained from later generations to them.
The most important thing is that these people are poor people who can't survive in troubled times. Duan Ye gave them food, clothes, and helped them get married. In the end, he gave them a big deal.
Where can I find such a thing?
Duan Ye now knows why Mr. Jiang likes to call him the principal the most back then. Because this kind of school-style training of talents is really easy to organize the team to quickly investigate Duan Ye and know that the people here are doing their own things.
Loyalty, almost no doubt
Of course, in this era, seniority still needs to be considered. These people have never been an official, so they will definitely not be able to become prefects and county magistrates. Duan Ye’s solution is to let them be deputy first, study at the same time, and accumulate until they accumulate.
After a while, I found out the situation and formed my own team, I officially became a regular
It took Duan Ye a long time to change the bureaucrats from Liangzhou to change the whole country.
There is no way. Duan Ye wants to regard Liangzhou as his base, so there can be no problem here.
At this time, Liu Muzhi and Mao Dezu had already traveled thousands of miles to Guzang. With the recommendation of Liu Guo, Liu Yiru, and Duan Ye’s understanding of them, Duan Ye certainly reused them Duan Ye to treat himself as the first
The position of military service in the governor's office was given to Liu Muzhi, and he ordered him to command the daily affairs of internal and external affairs. At the same time, he incorporated Mao Dezu into his own guards and made him the number one general around him
This move naturally moved the two of them very much. They were so reused for the first time. Of course, they cannot be ignored. However, this also made Duan Ye's original old subordinates have some complaints in their hearts.
It’s not that their realm is not enough, but that this is human nature. Anyone who finds newcomers who have not achieved success but who can come from behind will be unhappy.
However, Duan Ye never doubted Liu Muzhi and Mao Dezu, and these two were very successful. Liu Muzhi only took a short time to figure out the rules and regulations of Duan Ye.
He quickly entered the role, and his efficiency in handling government affairs was even higher than Duan Ye, because after all, he had worked as a minor official in the past. He was about the relationship between the yamen, the entanglement of all interests, and the various habits of the past bureaucrats.
, Liu Muzhi Capital is very familiar with
Duan Ye used power and prestige to suppress them, but Liu Muzhi relied on his skillful skills and skills, his understanding of the bureaucracy and his insight into human nature to control the bureaucracy. This is naturally
Double the result with half the effort
As for Mao Dezu, everything is even simpler. In the army, everything else is false. Mao Dezu showed his skills and almost knocked down all the challengers. What else can I say? In the army, who can fight
Whoever is the boss
Of course this is not enough. After fighting, you must coax it. What is the most important thing in the army? Loyalty! This should not be too relaxed for people like Mao Dezu who have been in the market like this.
So Mao Dezu quickly gained a foothold in Liangzhou
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Duan Ye must make good use of this opportunity and vigorously develop his own power
The situation in the world is actually very similar to the situation in the Warring States Period and also very similar to the situation after the Yongjia Rebellion seventy or eighty years ago. The Sima family is still in peace with Jiangnan, Murong Chui occupied Hebei and Liaodong, and Fu Rui still nominally praises Fu Hong.
But he was obedient to the tune and did not listen to the announcement, and never entered the dynasty. Fu Hong himself occupied most of Guanzhong and Sichuan. As for Yao Chang and his son, he was compressed in a corner of the northern Guanxi area of Sichuan and occupied Liangzhou.
Next, it is Yunzhong where Tuoba Gui is located
The key point is that Duan Ye’s own Liangzhou has not been completely unified yet. Duan Ye only occupied the prefectures and counties in traditionally under the jurisdiction of the Han people in Liangzhou. For the Tufa Ministry, Tuyuhun and other miscellaneous ministries, it has not been effective for their areas.
occupied
Of course, that was because Duan Ye didn't care about it, because Juqu Mengxun's whereabouts were still unknown, Juqu Luotian is now the head of Juqu tribe. Although he locked up Juqu Nancheng, he did not send him off.
When he arrived in Guzang, he also found various reasons to prevent Duan Ye from taking over Lu Shui and Hu Duan Ye from having too many internal affairs at that time, so he had to compromise.
In addition, for all counties in Liangzhou, Duanye is accepted peacefully. This is naturally very convenient for unifying Liangzhou, but for governance, there are many problems.
The biggest problem is the army
At that time, due to the ambiguous attitudes of Du Jin and Jiang Fei and others, the other defenders in Liangzhou almost all put down their weapons and chose to surrender. Of course, Duan Ye had to accept surrender. He killed surrendered soldiers like Bai Qi or Xiang Yu, and was injured.
Tianhe is the two people who are going to be retribution, but there is no good ending in history
However, these surrendered soldiers were not the ones they brought out, and they were not so trustworthy in their loyalty. Duan Ye was particularly worried about this. The army was an organized violent gang, if they still existed in their own system.
In the jurisdiction, that is undoubtedly a huge threat to one's own rule
Duan Ye cannot allow this threat to exist, so the most important thing Duan Ye does this year is to digest the nearly 100,000 surrendered troops.
The first step is of course abolition. There are too many of these people. They are all raised according to Duan Ye’s own soldiers. That is definitely not to be able to support them. Duan Ye is very good to his army, because it was created by himself.
The army, these people, surrendered directly, and it would definitely not work if they wanted to enjoy the same treatment.
At this moment, Duan Ye remembered the very famous production and construction corps system in later generations, and couldn't help but admire that Duan Ye now needs a lot of labor. Among these surrendered soldiers, many people have the strength, but they don't want to fight or want to fight. It's better to give them a lot.
Demobilization and transformation into ordinary labor force not only solves financial problems, but also solves safety problems, and provides a strong labor force, which is too cost-effective
The second step is naturally to replace defense carefully, breaking up the original system, separate the soldiers and generals, and leaving the remaining soldiers with no possibility of rebellion.
