Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1203 Changsha Chaos

If you want to do something difficult.

You just need to find the right people to do it.

The right person, doing the right thing, will naturally get twice the result with half the effort, but if an unsuitable person is replaced to do this thing, it may be half the result with twice the effort.

Jingzhou affairs, Jingzhou governance.

Jingzhou people, Jingzhou management.

The reform and system reform in Jingzhou is in full swing, and the commotion is huge. It has even affected the current normal operation order. There are riots, business roads are cut off, and people are displaced.

Countless people have already predicted that the reform of the Minghou Mansion will fail this time.

This will shake the foundation of the Minghou Mansion's leadership of Jingzhou.

Even if they were escaped by the Minghou Mansion this time, there will be many people who will not accept the rule of the Minghou Mansion in the future. Now that soldiers and horses are suppressing them, they can settle down. Once the Minghou Mansion dispatches troops to leave, there will be a new wave The turmoil began.

And at this juncture.

Headed by Sima Wei, Pang Degong Huang Chengyan and other great scholars quietly left the mountain.

The influence of scholars is terrifying in this era.

Duke Pang De entered Xiangyang City alone.

A three-inch tongue.

Among the rioters, three or four leaders were beheaded by their subordinates, and the rest abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

At the same time, at this time, with Sima Wei as the leader, the twelve Confucian scholars in Jingzhou jointly wrote to the imperial court and petitioned the Marquis of Ming Dynasty to support the reform in Jingzhou.

"Even Mr. Shui Jing agrees with the system reform, I think it is a good thing!"

"Under the old system, the people were hard-pressed and unable to survive. Now that the system is reformed, it may not be a bad thing!"

"Once the emperor and the courtiers, Jingzhou is now the territory of the Marquis of Ming, why not obey the destiny!"

"The Marquis of Ming is sympathetic to our people, measuring the land, and counting the population, all for us to have land to live and live, why don't you support it!"

"..."

The whole wind direction is turning so fast.

This is enough to explain the status of these great Confucian scholars in the hearts of scholars and common people. A word from them is enough to compare to the power of ten thousand notices pasted up by the Minghou Mansion.

Of course, there are also some voices of opposition.

For example, local wealthy families and squires, who control the land and control the population, how could they be so willing to hand over their own things, even if Sima Wei and the others are suppressing them, they have to go against the wind.

Nanzhou, Xiangzhou, and Wuzhou all stabilized successively.

But Xiazhou is always in chaos.

And it's getting worse.

More and more local wealthy and gentry families joined the rebel army, intending to overthrow the rule of the entire Xiazhou.

This rebellion still has a leader.

Han Xuan.

Han Xuan was originally a great Confucian, a well-known scholar in Jingzhou, and he had presided over Changsha for many years. He was interrogated in Changsha. He was forcibly pushed out by the wealthy families in these places, and he had no way out.

So there is only one way to go to the dark.

But the situation in Jingzhou made him feel a little chilled.

In particular, the support of Sima Wei and the others has made Jingzhou's resistance weaker and weaker, and made the Minghou Mansion's control more and more stable. Nowadays, the continuous flow of talents in Yizhou can only be given to Minghou. The government for a period of time is enough to stabilize the rule of Jingzhou.

Changsha City.

This main city looks a little quiet, but there is an undercurrent.

When Han Xuan and others killed the officials of the Minghou Mansion and completely took over Changsha City, the city was doomed to become a battlefield.

"How to do?"

Han Xuan summoned representatives of more than a dozen major clans, anxious to discuss a way out.

"The Marquis of Ming cannot cover the sky with one hand. In today's world, there are still people in power. Why should Duke Han be worried!"

"Mr. Zhongkun, you were the ones who pushed me out at the beginning. You swore that you could convince Mr. Shui Jing to stand on our side and resist the tyranny of Marquis Ming. Now, Mr. Shui Jing and Mr. Pound have chosen to support Marquis Ming. New Deal!"

Han Xuan's eyes glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said a little gloomyly.

"I never thought that it would be a disgrace to our generation of scholars to be so ungrateful and submit to the power of the Marquis of Ming Dynasty!" Ye Jiu's face flushed a little, he naturally did not expect Sima Wei's position to lead so quickly Minghou Mansion.

This was beyond his expectation.

At the same time, it also pushed the current situation to the worst.

"Don't argue now!"

An old man with a cane made a faint sound, which made the hall a little quieter. The old man's cloudy eyes swept over it, and then he said slowly: "When something happened, go and solve it, do it." Don't regret it, we have a century-old family business, and it is impossible to give it up, since the Minghou Mansion is going to be ruthless, we are not a person who will be arrested without a fight!"

His surname is Huo.

The old Patriarch of the Huo family in Changsha had a bad background when he was young, but he was good at studying. He started his official career at the age of 16. He used to be the county master, county magistrate, county magistrate, and county magistrate. Later, he went north to serve as county magistrate.

In the end, he didn't step over the position of prefect, and returned to his hometown from the position of Juncheng.

After returning to his hometown, he bought land to establish a family, wrote books, and trained his children to become officials. After decades of ups and downs, the Huo family in Changsha can be regarded as one of the wealthy gentry families in Changsha. Famous, but in Changsha, it is still very famous.

The entire Patriarch Huo's face is not small, and he relies on the old to sell the old. He even reviewed Pang Ji and Da Pang Shangshu back then.

His single name is Ao, his name is Bozhao, and he has lived in Dongting Mountain Villa for many years, and his name is Mr. Dongting. Over the years, he has also taught many scholars.

Not only Han Xuan, but even Ye Jiu respected him very much. His words calmed down the dog biting dog at the scene.

"Mr. Dongting, what is the current situation, you know in your heart that since I was willing to stand out at the beginning, there is no room for me to regret it at this moment. It's just that Mr. Han doesn't want to be confused and just go away!"

Han Xuan cupped his hands and said, "I also ask Mr. Dongting to give me an idea!"

"Since the Minghou Mansion is determined to go its own way, we have no other way to go. With our strength, it is okay to incite the people, but it cannot stop the Mujun. The current strategy is to attract foreign aid to enter the field. A ray of hope!"

Patriarch Huo said lightly.

"Bring foreign aid?"

Han Xuan's eyes lit up: "In today's world, there are many people who can compete with Mu Jun, but there is only one person who can reinforce Changsha!"

"Sun Wentai!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

At the beginning, Sun Jian used to run Changsha and left a lot of prestige in Changsha, and the people in Changsha were still very popular. At this time, if he led the Jiangdong Army into Changsha, it would be a good preparation.

"But how can Jiang Dong enter Changsha?"

Han Xuan was worried: "Jiangdong may not be willing because we are enemies with the Mujun. After all, when they retreated to Jingzhou, even the Jiangdong Tigers almost fell to Jiangdong!"

"Sun Jian and I have some kind of friendship!"

Patriarch Huo looked at a man present and said, "However, in terms of depth, only the Tang family may be able to invite the Sun family!"

Tang Yu smiled wryly.

When Sun Jian moved to Changsha and recruited troops in Changsha, he needed support. In order to stabilize the local aristocratic family in Changsha, the Tang family married their daughter to Sun Jian as a concubine.

This daughter is the younger sister of Tang Yu, the current ruler of the Tang family.

Tang Yu was originally the magistrate of a county under Changsha County.

Now he can be regarded as a member of the rebellion against Minghou's new policy, because his position has been sacked, and the Minghou's policy of measuring the world and counting the population has also shaken the foundation of the Tang family.

He is helpless.

"I try my best!"

Tang Yu said softly: "My sister's status in the Sun family is not high. As for whether Sun Jian can send troops to Changsha, it is really unknown!"

"Humph!"

Someone had a strong temper and said: "It's really not possible, we will fight with him to the death of the Minghou Mansion!"

The rich families in these places have been rooted in the place for at least a few decades, and at most for more than a hundred years.

........................

Changsha Army.

This army was originally commanded by Zhang Yun. After Zhang Yun was transferred to Jiaozhou, the new commanders were Wenpin and Zhuge Liang.

Wenpin represents Jingzhou.

The Minghou Mansion represented by Zhuge Liang.

It's a fusion.

At present, mainly speaking, Zhuge Liang is the main general, and Wenpin is the auxiliary.

At the beginning, this army had [-] troops.

But after several months of rectification, some retired troops were sent back to their hometowns, and some people from the other six gates were selected. Later, Zhang Yun took away several thousand main forces, and now there are only about [-] troops.

It is not as powerful as the Jingzhou Army.

But it can be regarded as a relatively large army under the command of the Mu army.

The Mu army captured two main forces in Jingzhou, one was Cai Mao and Huang Zu's Jingzhou elite, and the other was the Changsha Army, Cai Hao and Huang Zu's Jingzhou elite, based on water warfare.

The Changsha army has developed in both directions, and has some water warfare capabilities, but it is basically based on land warfare.

This force is just south of the Yangtze River.

A place near Changsha.

Get ready.

Waiting for the military order from Minghou Mansion, once the military order is issued, immediately go south to wipe out all the rebels. Although it may not be a bloody battle, it will definitely be a river of blood.

Even if the Changsha army is not considered elite.

Soldiers and horses that have undergone individual training and integrated military formations are naturally different from the chaotic soldiers formed by the common people. If they push across, there may not be anything that can stop them.

The most important thing is that a batch of ordnance has been transported from the Yudu Military Industry Department. Whether it is siege or land grabbing, they have enough confidence.

To say there is nothing to worry about.

It is still a question of the morale of the army. After all, most of the Changsha army is composed of Changsha children. They naturally have different feelings when facing Changsha. At this time, their loyalty may not be guaranteed.

During this period of time, Zhuge Liang has been working hard to give brainwashing speeches again and again, trying to instill in them the rules of obedience.

Whether the effect is great or not depends on the frontal battlefield.

Wenpin sometimes wondered why the Changsha Army had to be transferred to Changsha.

"Zhuge, what do you think, why do you have to put the Changsha army in Changsha? If the Changsha people send people to lobby, the army's morale will definitely be unstable!" Wenpin couldn't help asking Zhuge Liang.

If it is an ordinary general such as Cai Mao and Huang Zu, he should be dissatisfied when he is under Zhuge Liang.

But Wenpin is different.

He was the one who lost to Zhuge Liang on the frontal battlefield. Even though Zhuge Liang was young, even if Zhuge Liang looked a little soft, he didn't have much emotion.

This is the strongman effect.

People on the battlefield are actually not as delicate as literati. They yearn for the law of the jungle. Whoever is strong will listen to them. They will not think too much about issues such as seniority and reputation.

That's why Zhuge Liang was able to stabilize his position as a general in the Changsha army.

"Why did the higher-ups do this? I don't know. Few people can guess what my lord is thinking, but..." Zhuge Liang looked ahead, thought for a while, and replied Wenpin: "I think that this military order There is no problem, if the Changsha army wants to make a difference, it must pass this level!"

"You mean that the Changsha army can only truly win the trust of the lord if the local effects are discarded!"

Wenpin is a smart man, and he immediately understood what Zhuge Liang meant.

"Mu Jun's rules are different!"

Zhuge Liang reminded Wenpin, "And this may not be a problem, it may be your opportunity!"

"Chance?"

Wenpin squinted his eyes, but there was a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth: "But this opportunity is too embarrassing. Those captains may not be able to take over, after all, they are from Changsha!"

"Since ancient times, if you want to get, you have to pay. This is inevitable. You generals who surrendered, are you willing to do nothing in the future? There are a few people on the battlefield who don't want to make achievements! "

Zhuge Liang said: "I have confidence in them, I believe they will stand on a correct stand!"

"What if they reversed!"

"Then the Changsha Army doesn't need to exist!" Zhuge Liang revealed the secret.

"Could it be?"

Wenpin was chilling all over. The Minghou Mansion was really doing things one after another. I am afraid that the Changsha Army has dispatched the main force to wait for it. Once the Changsha Army chooses the opposite, the first to die is Changsha Army.

"Trust is mutual!"

Zhuge Liang raised an indifferent smile at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "If you completely trust your generals in Jingzhou, you may not believe it yourself. We are not stupid. Temptation is one aspect, and opportunities are also given. In the end No matter how you choose, we will naturally have to be foolproof!"

"Drips don't leak!"

Wenpin's heart is cold.

At the beginning, he chose to attack Yicheng fiercely and surrender because of self-injury. He thought he had passed this test, but now it seems that loyalty still needs to be tested.

Just get it wrong once.

All will be lost forever.

"General Wen, telling you this, I'm a bit of a violation, but no matter what, I'm on the battlefield, I don't know each other, I don't want you to work hard for so long, and finally go the wrong way! "

Zhuge Liang pointed to the front: "Where is the general trend? Actually, you can see it very clearly. It's just that you are always unwilling to reconcile. The current situation has already been controlled by the lord. Jingzhou cannot afford to turn the tide!"

"Ten thousand steps back, even if Jingzhou is in chaos, based on my understanding of the lord, he would rather cripple Jingzhou than give in, because he can still rebuild after being crippled, but if he gives in, in the future There is no chance!"

"So, don't think too much!"

He patted Wenpin on the shoulder, this sentence was a bit like persuasion, more like a reminder.

Wenpin stood halfway up the mountain and stayed for a long time before returning to the barracks.

After returning to the camp, he called several school lieutenants and generals for a secret discussion immediately.

Two days later, the Changsha Army had three school lieutenants and twelve military marquises, who were secretly arrested by the military police...
