195.Chapter 195
After Chen Xu led the Yellow Turban Army to hide in the mountains, he never went down the mountain to make trouble for the Han Dynasty.
But there is a reason why this empire will collapse. Even if the Yellow Turban Army in the world settles down, the entire Han Dynasty is still surging.
In the fourth year of Zhongping, that is, in 187 AD, there was another rebellion in Youzhou.
Zhang Chun rebelled with Zhang Ju of the same county, and Wuhuan Qiu Liju and others. Self-proclaimed General Mitian, King of Anding, King of Midian Anding, Marshal Karasuma of the Three Counties, Kou Luoqing, Xu, You, and Hebei Prefectures, killed and plundered the people, and was ruined.
For a time, the whole world shook, and the people around Qing, Xu, You, and Hebei were displaced, and most of them hid in the mountains to avoid the war.
At this time, the Yellow Turban Army had completely occupied the eight hundred miles of Taihang Mountain. Coupled with the Yellow Turban Army's crusade against the Hu people and the prestige of Danhan Mountain, many people dragged their families to join the Yellow Turban.
Chen Xu was in the mountains, and after hearing the origin of Zhang Chun's rebellion, he sighed.
It turned out that the root cause of Zhang Chun's rebellion can be traced back to Zhang Wen's dispatch of 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry to support the Liangzhou battlefield.
Zhang Chun is a native of Yuyang County, Youzhou, and likes to make friends with heroes everywhere since he was a child. In addition, he is bold and does not discriminate against Wuhuan people within the border.
Over time, he formed a deep friendship with the Wuhuan people.
Zhang Chun's talent is extraordinary, and he was once appointed as the minister of Zhongshan. However, due to the uprising of the Yellow Turban Army, which swept the entire Jizhou, Zhang Chun was also implicated and returned to his hometown.
After Zhang Chun returned to his hometown, his contacts with the Wuhuan people became closer. In addition, his reputation in Youzhou is very high, so many leaders of the Wuhuan tribe are willing to befriend him.
Zhang Chun's philosophy is not the same as that of ordinary scholars. He did not consider the Hu people to be a barbaric, backward race.
On the contrary, he sympathized with these Wuhuan people and admired their bravery.
Zhang Chun believes that since the Wuhuan people have always lived within the border of the Han Dynasty and recognize the Han as the master, then they should have the same status as the Han people.
If the Han can enable the Wuhuan people, with the wealth of the Han and the courage of the Wuhuan people, why can't they shock the Quartet?
Zhang Chun's concept has attracted the disdain of many scholars. But he was still stubborn and devoted himself to befriending the Wuhuan people.
However, it is said that in Youzhou, there is another hero, surnamed Gongsun, with a single name and a single name, and a cousin Bo Jue.
Gongsun Chan was born in a noble family, and because of his mother's humble status, he only became a county official.
But he was handsome, and had a loud voice and was quick to speak.
So he won the appreciation of Liu Taishou of Zhuo County, and promised his daughter to him. Later, Gongsun Zhan and Lu Zhi studied in the mountains of the Gui family, and they were promoted to the rank of high-class county officials.
After Liu Taishou committed the crime, he was assigned to Rinan. At that time, the law forbade his subordinates to travel with the car. Gongsun Zhan disguised himself as a waiter, took Mrs. Liu's daily necessities, and drove to escort him.
Before leaving, he knelt in front of the ancestral tomb and said: "In the past, he was a son of man, and now he is a minister, I should follow Liu Taishou to Rinan." The miasma in the south of Japan is pervasive, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come back, so I will say goodbye to my ancestors. ”
He wept generously, got up and left, and the onlookers all sighed. But he didn't want to, Liu Taishou was pardoned on the way to distribution.
Because Gongsun Chan attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and never gives up, Liu Taishou even promoted Gongsun Zhan.
This era pays attention to 'loyalty and filial piety', and with the above experience, Gongsun Chan is even more famous and has been appreciated by many officials.
After all, every official likes subordinates like Gongsun Zhan.
Gongsun Chan himself is also brave and talented, so he will be even more successful in the future.
But contrary to Zhang Chun's philosophy, Gongsun Zhan, when confronted with the Hu people, advocated a tough attitude against the northern minorities.
As long as the Hu people dare to invade the area under his jurisdiction, Gongsun Zhan will definitely go out and fight with the Hu people endlessly.
Every time the Hu people were captured, he was even more merciless and drove these people away. Sometimes he would even harm the Hu people's family, break the small Wuhuan tribe, and kill all the people inside.
The Wuhuan people in Youzhou, in the face of the murderous and tyrannical Gongsun Zhan, many people dare not speak out.
Zhang Wen suggested to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty that when he recruited 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry into Liangzhou, he would appoint Gongsun Zan as the main general.
These Wuhuan people were afraid of Gongsun Zhan's cruelty, but they did not dare to disobey the dispatch of the Han family. sent someone to ask Zhang Chun for help, hoping to change their commander.
Zhang Chunsu knew that Gongsun Zhan discriminated against and oppressed the Wuhuan people, and after hearing the news, he took care of it and told those Wuhuan leaders that he would definitely write to Zhang Wen.
Although he was dismissed from the post of Zhongshan State Minister, Zhang Chun's connections are still there. Through his connections, he recommended himself as the commander of the 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry.
However, Zhang Wen thought that Zhang Chun could not even pacify the Yellow Turban Army in Zhongshan Kingdom, thinking that he did not have the talent to command the army, so he rejected Zhang Chun's request.
After Zhang Chun's letter was rejected, he was indignant, so he burned all the things in his house and went to Qiu Liju.
After Gongsun Chan took over the 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry, he was really harsh on them, which made the 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry rebel and almost killed Gongsun Zhan.
When Chen Xu sent troops to Youzhou, Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju were already preparing to plot a rebellion. The 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry returned to their respective tribes, and there was no reason for that.
It was not until this year that Zhang Chun began to raise troops to rebel with Qiu Liju, killing Gong Qichou, the captain of Wuhuan, Liu Zheng, the Taishou of Youbeiping, and the Taishou Yangzhong of Liaodong.
Zhang Chun led the elite cavalry of Wuhuan, attacking the city and conquering the city, which was unstoppable.
In October of the same year, Changsha thief Qu Xing proclaimed himself a general and led more than 10,000 people to besiege Changsha.
In the fifth year of Zhongping, that is, in 188 AD, the imperial court sent Meng Yi, the general of Zhonglang, to lead Gongsun Zhan, the commander of the cavalry, to defeat Zhang Chun and others.
Gongsun Chan and Zhang Chun fought in Shimen, and Gongsun Chan won a big victory at the beginning. However, Gongsun Chan was too deep, and the backup could not continue, but Qiu Liju and others surrounded Guanzi City in Liaoxi for more than 200 days, Gongsun Chan ran out of food, and the soldiers dispersed.
However, Qiu Liju's army was also exhausted by Gongsun Zhan, and had to leave Liucheng.
So the imperial court paid homage to Gongsun Zan as the captain of the captive school, sealed the capital of the pavilion, and concurrently led the history of the governor of the country.
After that, Gongsun Chan led the soldiers and horses to guard the border.
Every time he heard that the enemy was coming, he immediately made a loud noise, and when he fought, he fought as if he were his own enemy, even until late at night.
From then on, the Wuhuan people were afraid of Gongsun Zhan's bravery and did not dare to attack again. Gongsun Chan and dozens of people around him who are good at riding and archery all ride white horses, with each other as the left and right wings, and call themselves 'White Horse Yicong'.
As for the rebellion in the south, the Ten Standing Servants pretended to use the edict of the Son of Heaven to take Sun Jian as the Taishou of Changsha to crusade against Qu Xing.
After Sun Jian arrived in Changsha, he personally led his soldiers and set up a strategy, and in less than 50 days, he put down the rebellion on Quxing's side.
The rebellion in two places made the two heroes appear in everyone's field of vision.
For a time, Gongsun Zan in the north and Sun Wentai in the south became the figures of the entire Han Empire.
The rebellion of Zhang Chun and the Wuhuan people made the entire Youzhou turbulent. Although Qiu Liju and others were forced to retreat to Liucheng, the situation in Youzhou was still not stable.
Liu Yu's grandfather Liu Jia was Guangluxun, and his father Liu Shu was Danyang Taishou.
Liu Yu served as a Cao official through filial piety, and was promoted to a county official because he could perform his duties, and later moved to Youzhou because of his accumulated political achievements.
During his tenure as the assassin of Youzhou, he had high prestige among foreign tribes such as Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, and Huiqian. All foreign races paid tribute at any time and did not dare to intrude, and the people sang songs and praised Liu Yu's merits.
Later, Liu Yu was dismissed from office because of official business.
After the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising, due to Chen Xu's strategy of the Qinghe State Minister, Huangfu Song's plan to completely annihilate Guangzong's Yellow Turban failed.
After Chen Xu led people into the mountains, Gan Lingxiang was dismissed. Due to the withering of the people's livelihood in the Qinghe Kingdom, the imperial court restored Liu Yu and made him the Ganling Minister to restore production in the Qinghe Kingdom.
Now Youzhou has become a pot of porridge, and the imperial court sent him to Youzhou again as a assassin because of Liu Yu's high prestige in the north.
Liu Yu wrote to the imperial court, saying that although the right to assassinate history is great, it will still be subject to many constraints.
Now that the Han rebellion is raging and the localities have just been pacified, the situation in the states is still turbulent. Therefore, he suggested that the imperial court abolish the system of assassination, follow the state pastoral system again, and recommend himself as the Yizhou pastor.
In the history of the Han Dynasty, the state pastoral system was used, but later because the power of the state pastor was too great, it was changed to the history of the assassins.
But now that the situation is urgent, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty agreed to restore the state pastoral system, and named Liu Yu as the pastor of Youzhou, and Liu Yan as the pastor of Yizhou, leading the military and political power of a state.
Liu Yu arrived in Jicheng, streamlined his troops, and gave favors extensively. And sent an envoy to inform the rebellious Wuhuan tribe leader and others that the imperial court would be lenient and could exempt them from responsibility for the crimes they had committed.
Then he offered a reward for the wanted Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun.
The two fled to the outside of the fortress, and the rest of their men surrendered or fled. Later, Zhang Chun was killed by his subordinate Wang Zheng, and his head was sent to Liu Yu. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty sent an envoy to promote Liu Yu to the rank of lieutenant and seal the Marquis of Qiu.
Youzhou was originally a poor state, and it needed Qingdao and Hebei prefectures to subsidize official expenses, but at that time, due to the war and traffic cutoff, it was impossible to dispatch money.
Liu Yu reopened the market in Shanggu to trade with foreigners, and mined the salt and iron ore in Yuyang to generate income, causing countless thousands of people from Qingzhou and Xuzhou to live and work in peace and contentment.
In addition, Liu Yu treated the Wuhuan tribe well and implemented a policy of Huairou for foreign tribes, which was also supported by the Hu people. He also sympathized with the people's power and developed production, so that Youzhou, which had been war-torn before, would soon regain its prosperity.
At the same time, in order to consolidate his rule, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty set up eight captains in the West Garden. Yuan Shao was appointed lieutenant of the Central Military Academy, and Cao Cao was appointed lieutenant of the Dian Military Academy.
And Dong Zhuo of Xiliang, while quelling the rebellion, became even more full-fledged.
In addition, most of his troops were mixed armies with Liangzhou people as the main body, and mixed Hu and Han Chinese. These people's loyalty to Dong Zhuo is far greater than that of the imperial court.
In this way, Xiliang Dong Zhuo has formed a huge force. He himself has become ambitious and has no one in sight.
In just a few years, the Han Dynasty became turbulent, and the princes who dominated one side in the future also began to show their talents.
