Chapter 1006: The General Trend
During the Battle of Tiger Pass, Zhang Fei died at the hands of Gao Yang. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.] After his body was collected, it was not transported back to his hometown in Zhuozhou, Hebei Province, because the distance was too far. With the transportation conditions of this era, it was impossible for him to go back and be buried.
Moreover, in order to avenge him, Liu Bei and Guan Yu immediately took refuge in Cao Cao as guest secretaries, which made it even more impossible to send Zhang Fei home.
Zhang Fei's body was buried outside an ordinary village outside the Tiger Prison Pass. Liu Bei and Guan Yu built a cemetery here for Zhang Fei. and hired a family in this village to take care of Zhang Fei's grave.
Early that morning, when the family guarding the cemetery was about to clean the cemetery, they suddenly found that the entire village was covered with soldiers in battle armor!
Gao Yang assigned Zhang Liao to send the bodies of Liu Bei and Guan Yu here and bury them with their third brother Zhang Fei. It can be regarded as fulfilling their kindness of Taoyuan's three knots.
At this time, the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang did not have any world-famous reputation. That is, Guan Yu has a slight prestige because he killed Hua Xiong in front of Bishui Pass.
As for Zhang Fei and Liu Bei, they are still unknown people. Zhang Fei was just a butcher who died at the hands of Gao Yang in the first battle. As for Liu Bei, after the King of Zhongshan Jing, he was not recognized at all, and it was always his self-proclaimed.
Others may not know the prestige of these three brothers in the future, but Gao Yang is different. I have watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms since I was a child, and I have read many books of the Three Kingdoms when I grew up, and I still have a trace of praise for the three famous brothers.
People die, the lights go out.
When people die, all the grievances in life are naturally put aside. Gao Yang has nothing to worry about. He built a cemetery for the three brothers with a very high standard, and recognized Liu Bei's status as a clan member of the Han family in the name of the emperor. After all, he is the person who has been the emperor of the Han family in history.
At the same time, a temple was built for the three brothers to pay their respects. When the three brothers were unknown, this was definitely a very remarkable courtesy.
Although he was a little melancholy, since the matter had passed, Gao Yang would not continue to take it to heart. He has a lot more to do.
The day after Cao Cao chose to surrender Gaoyang, Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, who had not yet been able to get the exact news, stupidly approached in the direction of Chen Liu with his soldiers and horses. Unexpectedly, it was raided by Gaoyang's heavy troops, and the army that was still on the march collapsed in an instant. Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, was also in the battle, and the nearly 10,000 troops under his command were almost wiped out.
Later, Tao Qian, Kong Rong and others, who finally received the news, angrily scolded Cao Mengde for being shameless. While hurriedly sending an envoy to Gao Yang to express his submission.
The strong combat power displayed by Gao Yang has already terrified these local princes who have ambitions, but lack the courage and strength. They were all afraid that Gao Yang would focus on them next. Therefore, it has become a matter of course to take the initiative to ask for surrender.
Gao Yang was also unambiguous, and expressed his appreciation to all the princes who sent the table to pray for surrender. Meantime. All these people were put on high prestige and official positions, and let them go to Luoyang to take office.
Gao Yang's hand can be regarded as holding everyone's death hole. The princes were originally just an emergency, who would really give up the territory and city in their hands?
If the great soil emperor doesn't do it, he goes to Luoyang to be a noble who has no real power and his life is still in the hands of others? Stupid? Naturally, the princes were desperately trying to shirk it. There are all kinds of weird reasons.
Gao Yang, who was not in the mood to play this kind of push-pull game with the princes at all, didn't care so much at all. Those who did not obey orders and were unwilling to hand over their territory troops were all branded as rebellious by Gao Yang. According to the distance, starting from Chenliu, they were all subdued one by one.
After being defeated on the battlefield, there is no preferential treatment from before. Gao Yang was not soft at all on these princes who had ambitions in their hearts. If you are captured alive, you must be put into a prisoner car and sent to Luoyang City for public display, and then beheaded for treason!
The iron-blooded methods that Gao Yang has been using have offended almost all the upper echelons of the entire Han Empire. aroused the common hatred of these people.
However, Gao Yang's strength is too strong. Even if these people have gathered and mobilized all the forces they can use. Nor could it stop Gao Yang from continuing to move forward. All stubborn resistance and intrigue are of no use in the face of incomparable power.
Yanzhou and Yuzhou soon fell into the hands of Gao Yang. All resistance is ridiculous in the face of absolute force.
It has an almost unlimited supply of goods. In addition, the land policy, which can be said to be the best weapon to win the hearts and minds of the people. and the imperial court that controls the entire Han Empire, holding the name of the righteousness of the world in his hands. With such a huge strength, Gao Yang has no opponent.
Countless ordinary people in the Sili Territory who had obtained fields from Gao Yang were informed. Because the Taiwei gave them the land, the local tycoons all over the world rebelled against the Taiwei, trying to overturn the strategy formulated by the Taiwei.
Moreover, propaganda teams trained and led by biochemical warriors went into every village to tell everyone. Once the Captain is defeated, then the former tenants who have received the land from the Captain and live a good life with hope will be finished.
When the rebels against Lord Taiwei come over, everyone will lose what they have now that they have only dreamed of in their dreams. These fields, these big animals, these grain and straw tools. There are even those of them who have just been freed. All this will be lost again!
No one wants to have it and then lose it. Especially the former tenants. As long as I think of the miserable days I had before, these tenants who had just escaped from the sea of misery with the help of Gao Yang were all going crazy.
Gao Yang, who implements the military strategy of one family, one household, one Jiading, can get hundreds of thousands of extremely loyal soldiers just in the realm of Sili! These sergeants, who were told by their families that protecting the Taiwei was protecting their own fields, were extremely morale and extremely loyal to Gao Yang.
They had nothing before. The hard life is only left with endless suffering. It was Gao Yang who rescued them and gave them a new lease of life. At this moment, when Gao Yang and their new students were under threat. These people stood up without hesitation!
When the farmers of China defend their fields, they have the invincible power of the world!
At this time, not to mention Gaoyang, it also has an entire modern time and space, as well as the origin and storage space as a backing. Even if he is just an ordinary traverser and has nothing, he is now invincible!
Gao Yang provided these loyal and brave soldiers with the most sophisticated equipment and almost endless supplies. Coupled with the rigorous training of the biochemical warriors. Its combat effectiveness is far from being comparable to that of the county soldiers under the princes of all walks of life, who have no equipment, no training, and no morale.
And that's just in the division. If you add Jingzhou and other places that have just begun to carry out innovations in all aspects, then the strength of Gao Yang's subordinates can indeed be regarded as endless.
Gao Yang, who had sufficient soldiers and sufficient supplies, swept the heart of the Central Plains with a momentum like a bamboo.
......
When Gaoyang's army arrived at the city of Xuzhou, the already aged Tao Qian chose to surrender the city.
Tao Qian, who was already old, had an extremely accurate gaze. He could see that Gao Yang was strong and could not be stopped. Tao Qian, who had no ambitions, stubbornly withstood the huge pressure of the local tycoons and billionaires in Xuzhou, and chose to surrender when the Gaoyang soldiers were in the city.
"You're doing a good job." Gao Yang, who was dressed in a mighty battle armor, nodded with satisfaction, looked at Tao Qian, who was respectfully holding the big seal in both hands, and said with a chuckle: "It's rare to meet someone with vision, after the handover, you will go to Luoyang City to be the Taifu Siqing." ”
"Lord Captain Xie." Tao Qian's body bowed deeper.
In fact, what Tao Qian wants to do most at this time is to return to his hometown and spend the last days of his life in peace.
Tao Qian's vision is extremely accurate, and he almost never misses people. He knew that none of his descendants had any talent and were of poor character. When he was about to surrender to Gaoyang, where the general trend had become a trend, he was even instigated by the powerful to oppose him, which was not the material for the officials at all. Once you enter the imperial court, you will inevitably be played to death.
Therefore, Tao Qian hopes to be able to bring his descendants back to the countryside to live a peaceful life. It's just that if you just surrender and choose to return to your hometown, you are slapping Gao Yang in the face. Tao Qian had no choice but to wait until after Luoyang City to make plans.
"My lord, the squires in Xuzhou City have sent a large number of goods to reward the army." Before dinner, Gao Yang, who was about to return to modern time and space to eat, left the news reported by Jia Xu.
"Oh?" Gao Yang's eyebrows were raised slightly, and the corners of his mouth had a hint of mockery that seemed to be a smile but not a smile: "Is it poisoned, or is there an assassin hidden?" ”
It's no wonder that Gao Yang would say that. After accepting Tao Qian's surrender today, Gao Yang made it clear to those powerful representatives of Xuzhou on the spot that he would immediately start the work of redistributing fields in Xuzhou, and ordered these powerful people to cooperate well.
The robbers came to rob their property, and they had to work hard to cooperate. This kind of thing will be unwilling. This can be seen from the expressions of those heroes who seem to have eaten Yonedako.
Gao Yang never cared about the emotions of these vampires. Starting from Si Li, whether in Jingzhou, Hebei or Yuzhou, he has encountered all kinds of opposition. For these rebel forces, Gao Yang didn't care at all.
What is Iron Blood, and what is Classical Militarism? Disobeying the order and killing it directly, there is no need to explain more.
As for the infamy in the history books or something, those are all disgusting tricks that the rotten Confucians who have read books and read bad brains come up with when they can't beat them.
Moreover, who would dare to scold Qin Shi Huang when he was alive? It's just a group of villains who orchestrate people behind them, and Gao Yang has never taken these rotten people who like to live in the shadows in his eyes.
In the face of absolute strength, everything is just a joke. (To be continued.) )
