Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Important Government of Customs and Defense [Thanks to 'Han Ke' for the ten thousand rewards, plus more]

Such a group of Xizhou princes died majestically and majestically, which made Yan Bei, who was lying on the sickbed in Luoyang, feel that the world is unpredictable. If there is no accident, these Liangzhou princes are entrenched in the pass, and they will be in chaos for three or five years, and even Yanbei, who is currently the most powerful in the army, has not thought of destroying them in this pass.

Tens of thousands of Liangzhou Xiaorui, plus those ants and family members, more than 100,000 people, is enough to make any prince feel sore when he thinks about it. But no matter whether it is Dong Zhuo or Li Guo, the brave and warlike Liangzhou people finally collapsed because of infighting, and they were killed one after another.

Against all odds.

Yanbei originally thought that he could get rid of Li Wei by the hand of Guo Yan, and then try to recruit Guo Yan and let him be a vassal prince.

Liu Bao's approach is very happy, and he throws it into the Yellow River to feed the fish, so fast!

Although there was no danger, the pursuit of the battle of the White Horse Temple made all the generals on Yanbei's side seriously injured, and the combat power was greatly reduced. Yanbei is an internal injury, suffered from the bump and collision of the horse's stumbling hoof, but it is only a matter of cultivation, a few months without using force with people, no longer injured will not hinder anything, the whole body is not injured at all, and the cultivation can walk on the ground in a few days.

The most seriously injured was desperately protecting his subordinates, and the heaviest wound on Hua Xiong's whole body was in the chest, and he was slashed by Dian Wei, and the armor on his chest was pierced into the flesh, and the subsequent battle dislocated his arm, and he had to recuperate for several months; Dian Wei rode his horse lightly, wearing only a layer of leather armor on his body, and suffered more than ten injuries, most of which were injured when he was protecting Yanbei when he withdrew from the center of the battlefield. The most seriously injured is Guan Hai, whether he runs for his life or charges, that is, he is not like Dian Wei who protects Yanbei wholeheartedly, nor is he like Tai Shici who weighs the benefits and pays attention to the entire battle situation, this outlaw is the best general to trap Chen, carrying a big knife and rushing into the enemy formation for nearly 100 steps, if it weren't for the Yan Zhao warriors who are sharp in the world, breaking the formation is far better than ordinary soldiers, and Bacheng will die in the battle formation.

Although Cai Yan has been controlled by Yanbei to escape for her life, she has fallen from Yanbei's horse, and no one can take care of her when she is in chaos. Fortunately, the soldiers who stayed in Luoyang City came at the right time and drove away the Xiliang people, otherwise they would not have escaped the fate of being taken captive. When the soldiers cleaned the battlefield after the war, they found Cai Yan who accidentally fell off his horse and fainted behind a dirt slope, and he was frightened on the battlefield, and returned to Luoyang to fall seriously ill and lose weight.

Tai Shi Ci? Tai Shi Ci has nothing to do, all his martial arts are on the riding and shooting halberd, as the most handsome horse archer in the entire Youji spear halberd, in the melee, the opponent can't dodge the halberd within ten steps, and can't escape the bow and arrow ten steps away, no one can take advantage of him compared to him. From the White Horse Temple all the way to Luoyang City, in addition to the armor added a few scratches, there is no external injury, the fly in the ointment is to get off the horse, step on the potholed Luoyang City bluestone road and break the foot, the back two decades to crutches the aisle.

Tai Shici's two-stone and two-jun bow is nearly 300 Han catties full of strings, which is probably the reason why archers love melee combat since ancient times!

Whether it is a crossbow or a bow, it is impossible for the weak and powerless to make it, basically the archers who can ride horses are good cavalry, and you don't see Liu Bei's Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, a horse archer, a step archer.

Waiting for Yang Feng's riders to bring the emperor and the hundred officials and ministers to Hedong County safely, the Hedong Taishou Wangyi was temporarily served to the imperial court. This year and last year, it is a good year for the two states of Youji, Youzhou is usually cold and there is usually no locust plague, and Jizhou is because Yanbei has just passed the time of tax exemption before, the people have enough time to recuperate, and most of the families also have land and surplus grain, so that the pressure on the state capital is greatly reduced compared with last year, and no longer supplies Jizhou with grain, but also collects some taxes.

But that's just the two states. In fact, in the Central Plains prefectures, including Jizhou, the second year of Xingping was a well-deserved disaster year, since the heavy snowfall last winter, the sky has not rained the slightest rain, the great drought has dried up the canals in various places, the land is cracked and barren, and hunger is everywhere. Don't talk about it from afar, just say that Yang Feng saw it with his own eyes, and the people who moved east with the imperial court could only eat a few dates and eat in the wild. In sparsely populated places, if it is not the hungry red-eyed people who hunt down the birds and animals, then it is the wild dogs that rise up and attack and eat countless people.

The disasters of famine and drought also affected Jizhou, but there is no state and county in the world that relies on a place like Youzhou to have a more enlightened customs and defense of important political envoys than in the peace period of the Han Dynasty to resist natural and man-made disasters.

In fact, the control of the customs defense by the princes in various places is the top priority, and the two states like Youji are all under the rule of Yanbei, and the customs defense will not be the only one to set up cards and collect taxes. Except for the generals of Liangzhou, who did not know anything about governing politics before, all the princes, including Yanbei, all adopted the same policy in terms of external customs and defense, that is, they were in or out!

Whether it is recruiting troops or collecting taxes, the population is the greatest wealth of the princes of all walks of life, in order to prevent the loss of population under the rule, and eliminate the possibility of all people moving. However, this kind of thing is sometimes unstoppable, and no matter how tightly guarded the gate is, it can't block all the passages. Fortunately, Yanbei's Youji didn't have to worry about these things, the people under his rule were relatively stable and peaceful compared to the rest of the states, even if there was a war with the neighboring princes, the people only moved to the prefecture and county.

But in Guanzhong, it is obviously not like this, Li Guo and others have no intention of controlling the customs defense, and the hundred officials and ministers are powerless, over the years, the people of Guanzhong have been running for what they can go, whether they are going north or south, and even most of the counties and counties in Guanzhong are ten rooms and nine empty, like a wasteland. Yang Feng told Yanbei in the letter that Liu Bao saw the emperor holding corn stew and called it a great good, and the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, who killed Duan Simmer without blinking, secretly cried several times, hoping that Yanbei could set off as soon as possible and supply the hundred officials with grain and grass to serve the court.

Move the capital to Yecheng as soon as possible, so that the emperor can be stable.

Liu Bao also thinks that moving the capital to Yecheng is a good thing now. There are nearly 100,000 officials and ministers and their families, and Hedong County has a surplus of grain and grass in the past year, and it will be eaten up in half a month at most.

At this time, no one would think about what Yanbei was thinking, even the ministers who were jealous in their hearts before, they also knew that Luoyang was unlivable, and only the rich Youji Erzhou had the ability to support the imperial court.

Yanbei must set off, not only to welcome the royal family, Yang Feng also brought back another news in the letter - Cao Cao, who gave up the storming of the tiger prison, is leading the army to attack Hanoi, intending to cut off Yanbei's way back to Youji!
