Chapter 118: Cao Cao's Toughness! (2/3)

In addition, in order to dig out the foundation of the Northwest Hao clan and avoid the loss of manpower and material resources of the Kanto region due to Pingqiang, the court repeatedly proposed to abandon Liangzhou and move the people of Liangzhou into inland states and counties.

Moving is a wonderful way to combat the power of the wealthy family, a large family relocated, to the new territory and to be squeezed out by the local wealthy family, often make the family in the middle of the road, a slump, Qin and the Western Han Dynasty in the early and middle period has been the implementation of the relocation policy, the Guandong Hao family moved to Guanzhong, to avoid its excessive growth, until the Han Yuan Emperor because of the uncontrollable growth of the Hao family in the court and stopped.

Now the policy of the wealthy families in the Kanto region is a copy of the Western Han Dynasty's relocation of the Hao, but the host and guest are reversed. In order to defend the countryside and the foundation, the wealthy families in the northwest fought bloody battles on the battlefield, and also intrigued with the wealthy families of the Kanto region several times in the court,-for-tat.

As early as the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the face of Xiqiang crossing the Great Wall and invading Liangzhou, the Nanyang Xungui group in the court suggested giving up Liangzhou. Fortunately, at this time, it was in the rising period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty ordered Ma Yuan to lead troops to quell the Qiang Rebellion.

In the early years of Emperor Yong of the Han Dynasty (107~113), the Eastern Han Dynasty declined, and as the Qiang Rebellion intensified, Pang Shen, a courtier from a wealthy family in Kwantung, repeatedly suggested giving up the Western Regions, and was ridiculed by the Xizhou scholars.

Pang Shen said that the general Deng Qiu (Deng Yu's grandson), who was born in the Kwantung region, would abandon Liangzhou on the grounds that the state was insufficient, but he was still rejected by the courtiers from the wealthy families in the northwest.

In the fifth year of Yongchu (111 years), the first Lingqiang invaded Hanoi from the annexation state, only a river away from the capital Luoyang, the Eastern Han Dynasty court was shocked, and it was decided to abandon the counties of Longxi and northern Shaanxi, and move the people into the interior.

The people of Liangzhou relocated to their land and did not want to leave their hometowns, so the local officials destroyed their farmland and houses and forced them to leave, resulting in a large number of people dying on the roads, almost provoking a large-scale civil uprising.

Wang Fu, a famous scholar in Liangzhou, hated the behavior of the bureaucrats of the wealthy clan in the Kwantung region and beggar-thy-neighbor, and wrote in his famous book "The Theory of Hidden Husbands":

"The former betrayed the Qiang...... Thousands of miles back, there is no wilderness. The scourge of money does not stop day and night. The people are destroyed, the sun and the moon are scorched, and the people of the inner county are not affected, and the salty clouds are indulged in waiting for the time. If this is the intention, how can the hearts of the people! ”

The central government is unreliable, and the people of Liangzhou can only rely on themselves to gallop across the field and defend their homeland. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, during the period of Emperor Shun of Han and Emperor Huan of Han, there were three famous generals in the wealthy family of Liangzhou at the same time, namely:

Huangfu Gui (Weiming), Zhang Huan (Ranming), and Duan (Jiming), known as Liangzhou Sanming, won a major victory in the war against the Qiang, and Duan even implemented a genocidal policy rarely seen in Chinese history against the Qiang people, suppressing the Qiang rebellion for a while.

However, as the politics of the Eastern Han Dynasty ran all the way on the road of corruption, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out during the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, although it was quickly suppressed, but the people's minds were chaotic, the frontier was unstable, and the Qiang Rebellion broke out again in Liangzhou, and there were also Liangzhou Han wealthy families involved. The Eastern Han government sent the warlike Huangfu Song, Sun Jian, and Dong Zhuo, but they still could not be pacified.

Situ Cuilie, who was born in Kanto, once again suggested giving up Liangzhou, and Fu Xie, a wealthy family in Liangzhou, was furious and reprimanded on the spot:

Kill Situ, the world is safe!

In the end, under the impetus of Fu Xie, the Eastern Han Dynasty organized the remnants of the government forces in Liangzhou, and the Liangzhou assassin Shi Geng was the commander to quell the rebellion. Geng Contempt was suspected of the Kanto giant deer Geng clan, and he appointed traitors to poison Liangzhou, and on the way out, the Liangzhou wealthy clan who served as a different driver raised troops to mutiniate and killed Geng Cong.

Fu Xie defended Hanyang (in Liangzhou, not Wuhan) with a small number of soldiers, and died in a heroic battle, and the Eastern Han Dynasty's control of Liangzhou was completely lost. And this time, their opponent was no longer the savage chieftain of Xian Lingqiang or Dangqiang, but the Han famous Han Sui of Liangzhou and his Han and Qiang coalition army.

At this point, the Hao clan in Liangzhou's heart to the center basically died or died in a foreign land, and the remaining half were coerced by the Qiang people, half of them were desperate for the imperial court, and resolutely cooperated with the rebels, not only to seize Liangzhou, but also to lead them to attack Chang'an and become enemies of the Han Dynasty.

Not only that, the reason why the Liangzhou Hao clan broke with the Eastern Han Dynasty government is that there are many long-term grievances and complex reasons. In order to prevent the combination of local officials and local forces and the formation of separation, the Han and Han Dynasty designed a system of appointing outsiders to serve as local officials.

In other regions, people from neighboring counties with little cultural differences were sometimes selected as officials, but in Liangzhou, people from the Kanto region were deliberately used as magistrates in order to guard against the powerful Liangzhou wealthy clans.

In the face of the Qiang invasion, in order to ensure their own safety, they suggested abandoning Liangzhou and moving the residents inward, and they were often greedy and reckless in their governance. The wealthy people in Liangzhou hated them to the core, and they were also quite dissatisfied with the Eastern Han government behind them.

The Eastern Han Dynasty's system of electing officials was also unfavorable to Liangzhou, and the prefectures and counties elected filial piety according to their population. Because of the decline and long-term war in Liangzhou, the population has decreased sharply, this way out is very narrow, and can only rely on military merits, mostly serving in the military at the border, coupled with the intentional exclusion of the wealthy families in the Kwantung region, the Liangzhou wealthy families have less and less say in the court, and the centrifugal force is naturally getting bigger and bigger.

In addition, in the long-term Han-Qiang war, the Qiang people voted for the Han, and the Han people voted for the Qiang, and at the same time as the Qiang people were sinicized, the Han people in Liangzhou also began to be Qiang, and became violent, cruel and bloodthirsty, Dong Zhuo is one of them, and the so-called ethnic integration has always been two-way. In this way, they can't pee in the same pot as the cultural tycoons of the Kanto region.

In the first year of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty (184), the Qiang people took advantage of the Eastern Han Dynasty to concentrate all their efforts to pacify the Yellow Turban and restarted the incident. This time, the leader of the Qiang people, Beigong Boyu, was quite sinicized, respected the local wealthy family, and robbed the Liangzhou Han celebrities Bian Zhang and Han Sui as the leaders. Bian Zhang and Han Sui themselves had also been Qiang, so they simply joined the gang and led the army to attack Liangzhou and Chang'an.

In the same year, Huangfu Song, the nephew of the famous general Huangfu Gui of Liangzhou, quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion and established the world's miraculous achievements, and Yan Zhong, the wealthy family of Liangzhou, persuaded Huangfu Song to rebel, eliminate the Eastern Han Dynasty, and establish the power of the Liangzhou people. However, Huangfu Song was one of the few wealthy families in Liangzhou who changed to a cultural clan, and if he did not obey, Yan Zhong fled.

In the fourth year of Zhongping (187), Han Sui led the Hanqiang coalition army to attack Longyou, and the Hanyang Kingdom, a wealthy clan in Liangzhou, responded with troops. The wealthy clan of Liangzhou mutinied again, beheading the Liangzhou assassin Shi Geng, and the powerful Han factions such as Sima Ma Teng, Li Xiangru, Longxi Taishou, and Jiuquan Taishou Huang Yan joined the rebels.

At the end of this scene, Dong Zhuo, a government officer from Liangzhou, entered the court, recruited An Ma Teng and Han Sui, and changed himself, replacing Han Sui and becoming the representative of the people of Liangzhou, and Jia Xu served as Dong Zhuo's staff at this time.

However, Dong Zhuoqiang's barbaric style was not tolerated by those culturally developed wealthy families in the Kanto, so Yuan Shao was outside, Wang Yun was inside, and he was attacked inside and outside, and took his dog's life.
