Chapter 1049: The Bitter Princes
Chapter 1049 The Bitter Princes
On the first day of Zhang Yu's ascension to the throne, many peasant movements broke out in various parts of the world.
Many people, instigated by others, turned out to be obedient people, and suddenly rioted and beat their landlords to death.
Just as the autumn harvest was approaching, the people thought they could cut taxes, but they didn't.
Never dared before, but now they do.
The reason is simple, they are "on orders".
Whose holy decree is Zhang Yu's holy decree.
On the first day, Cao Cao was also a little caught off guard, he only had three days at that time, and after he discussed it and arranged it, he only had two days.
When the decree was issued, there were very few places to reach on the first day, and in ancient times, horses were relied on to deliver messages.
Even the places around Xuchang have not been able to receive all the news, because it is very simple, the landlord does not know where to run happily, and the parties have not received the news.
On this day, several protests broke out around Xuchang, two of which caused major incidents, two landlords were killed, and hundreds of peasants attacked the family, and finally thousands of people participated, robbing a family.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it to be so serious." Cao Cao said after reading the information.
This happened when he was prepared, if he was not prepared, or even mentally prepared, maybe Cao Cao would have sent a large army to suppress and slaughter thousands of people.
However, he didn't know how many places like this would happen.
Cao Cao was also glad that there was Cao Ang, if it weren't for Cao Ang, when he heard that a large number of people had rebelled, he would not have been able to understand what was going on immediately, and he would definitely send a large army to slaughter him.
When the time comes, it will lead to a catastrophe.
At this time, Cao Ang had already rushed to plan the affairs of Luoyang, he wanted to take the opportunity to do something, if he could succeed, he could indeed defeat Guo Yan very quickly.
Cao Cao called Cheng Yu and others.
"There have been several incidents outside the city, and the impact is so great that the king has ordered the army to drive these people away." Cao Cao said.
Several of his strategists also understood what was going on, and no one expected that Zhang Yu would be the emperor and the impact would be so great.
Cao Cao continued: "Zhang Yu's hand is too clever, our financial income is about to be greatly reduced, this is already an indisputable fact, we must make greater efforts to develop business, this matter Zhongde will handle." ”
Cheng Yu clasped his hands into fists and said, "Yes, lord." ”
Cao Cao waited for a long time before he said, "Finally, this king has a proposal, you can discuss it. ”
Everyone listened carefully, not knowing what Cao Cao was going to say.
"This king has decided to be the emperor and fight against Zhang Yu."
This incident made Cao Cao see that the Han Dynasty no longer had any prestige, and even if he was called emperor, not many people would oppose it.
Zhang Yu is the emperor, and even his own people are looking towards him.
If Cao Cao is not the emperor, he will be short of Zhang Yu, and people's hearts will fluctuate.
Talent follows Cao Cao, Cao Cao is at most a prince, and it is different with Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu has already been called the emperor, and the territory is big.
Such a comparison, of course, follows Zhang Yu's future.
After everyone discussed, Xu You said: "Meng De, it is naturally okay to be called emperor, when we take Luoyang, we will be called emperor in Luoyang, and we can only move the center of gravity from Xuchang to Luoyang, otherwise Zhang Yu has the jade seal of the country, and we have nothing." ”
This is also a big problem, Zhang Yu said that the emperor has taken the lead.
If they don't claim the title of emperor, they are indeed passive everywhere.
Several advisors also agreed that Cao Cao would be proclaimed emperor.
is not called the emperor, he is suppressed by Zhang Yu everywhere, and some people who are easy to waver in their minds have run to Zhang Yu's side.
Cheng Yu said: "My lord, our imperial examination must also be changed and more people will be admitted, otherwise I am afraid that we will all go over there next year." ”
Over there, it refers to Zhang Yu's side.
Cao Cao attaches great importance to talents.
"Okay, this matter will be discussed slowly, and this king will also think things through, and now, it is to suppress the current matter."
Cao Cao immediately sent people to set up defenses in various counties and counties, and the matter was very big, and the peasants who revolted everywhere killed the landlords of the family.
But Cao Cao can't kill people, at least not too many people, these people are just temporarily bewitched, if you kill too many people, not only can you not suppress it, maybe everyone will rise up against him, and even the army will rebel.
Cao Cao simply sent people to drive the people back with wooden sticks.
In the evening, more information arrived, and the impact of the wave was too great.
A large number of people rose up, and dozens of incidents, large and small, occurred.
"It is strictly ordered that the landlords of the family can only collect two and a half percent of the tax, and whoever collects too much will be killed."
Cao Cao saw that public opinion was so turbulent, there was really no other way, he was afraid that these families would provoke the people, and it would be difficult to clean up when the time came.
Zhang Yu was called the emperor, and all the princes in the world were in chaos for a while, and even Zhang Yu didn't expect the impact to be so great.
On Zhang Yu's side, the scenery is unique, and the people are very happy.
A large number of people are celebrating, and Zhang Yu is called the emperor, which is their festival.
When many people saw this scene, they knew that the people's hearts were on Zhang Yu's side.
Cao Cao's side is not bad, after all, there is Cao Ang, a person who has studied Zhang Yu very deeply, drinking tea in the teahouse, and after hearing some remarks, he can guess some things.
Cao Cao and the others have already thought of a way to deal with it, and after the accident, they will deal with it immediately.
The next day, more news came, and there were many places where the people had rebelled, hundreds of large and small, ranging from a few dozen people to thousands.
Thousands of people get up, it is easy to affect all places, if there are people with intentions to take the lead, I am afraid it will be a very harmful thing, maybe it will become a prairie fire.
Cao Cao, they dealt with it properly, and there were still a lot of big things.
Cao Cao gave a strict order that all the families must carry out the order, but there were always some families who did not want to obey.
The situation recovered in two days made Cao Cao not in a very good mood.
"The big thing is still after the autumn harvest, it's not a few days." Cao Cao rubbed his brows and said.
Now, Cao Cao has given an order, but if the landlord of the family does not carry it out at that time, I am afraid that it will set off a lot of things.
Cao Cao's side is like this, and Sun Ce's side is even more unhappy.
He was unprepared.
Suddenly, a large number of people rose up.
Sun Ce was still preparing to attack Jingzhou.
Sun Ce's first reaction was that someone wanted to rebel.
"Kill, kill me."
Sun Ce's first order was to exclude the army and slaughter.
A large number of innocent people, or people who did not know what was going on, were slaughtered by the army.
After the slaughter here, there was another incident there.
Around Changsha alone, Sun Ce killed nearly 10,000 people.
After killing for two days, Sun Ce couldn't react to it, something was wrong at this time.
Because he killed for two days, Sun Ce didn't know who was revolting.
arrested a few people who took the lead, but the result was that they were all ordinary people, and the uprisings in several places were unrelated.
In this way, Sun Ce also understood that there was something strange about things.
But the man has been killed.
