I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 638, Emperor Xian goes out

Yuan Ji was born in a noble family, so it was difficult for him to be cruel to them.Liu Bei may have noticed this, and simply changed Zhao Yun to guard Chengdu, but because he was from a noble family, he also knew the power of the powerful family, although because of Lei Gong, the power of the powerful family had already declined extremely.

But it was also because of the Dagan that they drove the nobles of the Han Dynasty to the south of the Yangtze River, and the powerful clans in the south of the Yangtze River have been cultivated for ten years, and their strength has recovered a lot. It can even be said that the powerful clans of the Jiangnan clan have become stronger than ever after being strengthened by the clans of the Central Plains.

Now the big man can only rely on the nobles, if they are offended, the big man is even less likely to be Lei Gong's opponent, this is what he has been avoiding, but now Zhao Yun has thoroughly resolved the conflict between the court of the Han and the nobles It's on the surface.If this is not handled well, not to mention being breached by Lei Gong in Shuzhong, even the big man may perish!

But Zhao Yun said coldly: "The population of Dagan is three times that of Dahan, and the land is several times larger than that of Dahan. They can even directly control the land in the territory, so Dagan can get more than one billion stones of grain, and my Dahan But they can’t directly control the land, most of the land is in the hands of the nobles, and the food and grass they get are far inferior to Dagan.”

"Fighting is all about food and grass. Now Lei Gong is blatantly using hard power to fight against us. If we don't have enough food and grass, we can't fight Lei Gong. It's a matter of time before the big man dies, because he is oppressed by Lei Gong It’s better to fight now than to die.”

The exchange between Yuan Ji and Zhao Yun broke up unhappily. He also knew that he could only suffer from splints in Chengdu, so he went directly to the front line in Hanzhong to see if he could persuade Liu Bei to change his mind. This approach is too dangerous. The nobles and nobles who are gambling in Shu dare not rebel!

The aristocratic families in Chengdu are the most in the whole of Shu, and Dujiangyan is near Chengdu. It can be said that Chengdu occupies [-]% of the food in the middle of Shu. It can be said that Shu County is the core of Yizhou.

And Zhao Yun rectified the soldiers, led an army of 1, and entered Chengdu. The whole Chengdu was full of rumors. No one knew whether Zhao Yun would use the set of Guanghan County in Chengdu?

And after Zhao Yun took over the entire Chengdu, the first thing he did was to dismiss the corvees in central Sichuan. As soon as this policy came out, the whole Chengdu suddenly became lively, and the front line was still fighting. It was obvious that someone was needed to transport food and grass, but now Zhao Yun would not let the people Serving in corvée means that they have to pay for food and people.

To deceive others too much is to assume that they dare not rebel and seek refuge with Lei Gong!

But these aristocrats are not easy to provoke, after they know Zhao Yun's thoughts.Many people even risked contacting Guan Hai to support Guan Hai who was hiding in the deep mountains with weapons, equipment and food, and even sold the army transporting food and grass in Hanzhong, asking Guan Hai to destroy the logistics team, trying to threaten Zhao Yun through this method At the very least, let Zhao Yun know that the aristocrats in Sichuan are not easy to mess with!

Of course, there are still some powerful and powerful people who want to take this opportunity to fake the show for real. Seeing that the world of the big man is about to perish, they have always wanted a chance to board the ship of Dagan, but now Zhao Yun gave them a stick Opportunity to contact Dagan!

So Guan Hai, who was in the middle of the mountains in central Shu, saw with a dazed expression that the representative of the powerful family in front of him had sent him hundreds of sets of weapons and equipment, and he had also bought 1 shi of grain around the Jiange. transport team!
At that time, Guan Hai thought it was Zhao Yun's scheme, but after he found someone to inquire about it, he found out that the nobles in Sichuan had fallen out with Zhao Yun, and now they wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone!
With such a good thing, Guan Hai naturally laughed and agreed, and asked them to double the weapons, equipment and food!
But after Guan Hai came out of the mountain, he found that most of the big Han's transportation team was on the front line of Jiameng Pass, very close to Liu Bei's main force, and every time they transported grain, they were protected by a battalion of elite Han troops.

He tried several times, but never won, which made it impossible for him to block the army occupying his hands as an opponent of the Han army, so he gave up the idea of ​​​​cutting off Liu Bei's food and grass!But Guan Hai's behavior also attracted Zhao Yun's attention, and he intensified the encirclement and suppression of Guan Hai's troops!

Of course, there were people who supported Guan Hai and Zhao Yun to fight against each other, but most of the aristocratic families felt that such behavior was simply killing them.No matter what Liu Bei does, he is the general of the big man after all, and it is impossible to leave them behind.But if Lei Gong occupies Yizhou, it will be a catastrophe for them. From his actions in the Central Plains, we know that he is completely trying to smash the world of the powerful and powerful, and build a brand new world, and this world will not have them. The position of the noble family.

It can be said that they have been so tolerant to Liu Bei these years because of the enemy Lei Gong.Let them discover that no matter how bad the world of the big man is, it is ten times better than the world of Lei Gong.

But in any case, because of Zhao Yun's actions, the resistance of the clans in the middle of Shu, and the fact that Guan Hai's forces not only grew stronger in the middle of the Shu, the whole of the middle of the Shu was in chaos.It looks quite like the tree fell and the monkeys scattered.It can be said that the whole Yizhou is in turmoil!

But Zhao Yun was still unmoved, and continued to borrow the food and grass of the nobles in central Shu with the white slips of General Liu Bei. Facing such a stubborn Zhao Yun, the nobles in Sichuan were like turtles in a urn, panicking!
And when there was chaos in central Shu, Liu Xie of the Chengdu Palace summoned Zhao Yun. Although Zhao Yun felt strange, he was a general loyal to the Han Dynasty after all.So he entered the palace and met the emperor Liu Xie.

Liu Xie saw Zhao Yun and said: "The general's name has been heard all these days. Many people say that the general wants to learn from Dong Zhuo. He is a traitor and a traitor of the big man who caused cholera in the world!" "

Zhao Yun respectfully saluted and said: "Your Majesty, although the current behavior of the last general is a little extreme, it is powerful enough to save the big man. At this time, the world of the big man is already in danger. If the general is going to be defeated in Hanzhong, I am afraid that the big man's world will be defeated." It has not been a few years. So to keep the army in the Hanzhong battlefield is the most important thing in Shuzhong."

"Although the general can lead the army to resist the big army, but now the Hanzhong battlefield is extremely short of food, and the people in Shuzhong have no food to support the front line. If the court wants to continue to search for them, they will turn to the big army and make a big man. If the people in central Shu rebelled, it would be impossible for the frontline army to be stable, and under internal and external attacks, it would be impossible for the general to defeat Lei Gong."

"So the last general has no choice but to get food from the nobles, because they are the only ones who have food in the whole of Shu. They don't say that they have been loyal for generations, and now it's time for them to serve the court. In the end, they did this. Behavior, this is worthy of the support of the big man for 400 years. Don't they know the consequences of the big army's invasion of Shuzhong?
Now they are not only protecting the world of the big man, but also protecting their own glory and wealth! "

Liu Xie asked: "How is the battle on the front line now? Can the general repel Lei Gong?"

Zhao Yun smiled helplessly and said: "After all, our army is not as powerful as the Dagan army. The general can only rely on the mountain to defend. He can't take the initiative to attack at all, so this is why the war has been delayed for two years. Now the two sides are competing for logistics. For grain and grass, Lei Gong created a mechanism called a train to transport grain and grass. This thing can support hundreds of horse-drawn carts, plus Dagan has no shortage of grain and grass, and Dagan has already gained the upper hand in logistics."

"Without the support of Shuzhong, our army is bound to be defeated. It is because Hanzhong is not guaranteed that the last general and the general will be forced to do such extreme things, because now only in this way can we get food and grass and guarantee the army. safety."

Liu Xie is more than 20 years old this year, and has reached the age when he can take charge of the government. To be honest, if he is an emperor in other history, he should find a way to fight for power and profit at this time, and wipe out Liu Bei, the power minister!
It's a pity that the world of the big man is about to be torn apart by the big boss Lei Gong.The countless famous ministers and generals of the big man were all vulnerable to Lei Gong's unprecedented rebellion.It can be said that at this time the big man has reached a crisis of life and death.

Emperor Xian wants to be in charge of the court, and the civil and military ministers are not optimistic about it. Even Emperor Xian himself dare not take over the power by himself. He is also afraid that the world of the big man will fall in his hands.

Compared with Cao Cao in history, Liu Bei is more respectful to Xian. In addition to the current situation, the big man is much more dangerous than Cao Cao in history, so the relationship between Emperor Xian and Liu Bei is much better. This opportunity wants to backstab Liu Bei.

Instead, he asked Zhao Yundao: "General, do you need me to come forward and explain to the masters? Although I am not capable, I have some face at least. Since the general needs food and grass so much, let me find a way to help." Let’s raise some money, the general, I think the nobles and nobles who came to the middle of Sichuan will at least give me a little favor for the emperor.”

Hearing this, Zhao Yun was a little hesitant. Although he belonged to Liu Bei, he was also a general of the big man. He knew that Liu Bei would not have a good reputation for exchanging grain with the white paper stamped by the general. If such a thing Being seen by the emperor, the emperor's reputation will not be much better.So he was a little worried about Xiandi.

The Son of Heaven seemed to have noticed Zhao Yun's worry and taunted him helplessly: "The Emperor Zhen has such a role. The generals say that the big man has reached the crisis of life and death. All the people of the big man have the strength to contribute, and the money to contribute. Naturally, the emperor can contribute as much as he can, and he will do so. The powerful Lei Gong has almost wiped out all the nobles and nobles in the world. Will he let me go? I am afraid that the day when the middle of Shu is captured will be the day when I perish , I did this to save myself, after all, this is the world of big men, and it has reached this level. At this time, I can’t go up to anyone, who can go up.”

"Right now, the whole family of big men feel that big men can't beat Lei Gong, who can run, and those who can run have already started to find ways to escape. The general doesn't know that Wen Hou has already fled to Jiaozhou with tens of thousands of people. It is said that Jiaozhou is not Their destination, Wen Hou led tens of thousands of people to escape from the land of the big man, and now keep those in the middle of Shu, at least they have some confidence in our big man, they are loyal ministers, and the big man is not good to colden the hearts of these loyal ministers, or Find a method that they can accept, and hand over the food in their hands!"

Zhao Yun thinks it makes sense, the battle of Hanzhong is about to be defeated, and the world of the great Han will enter the countdown to extinction. At that time, the emperor Xiandi may be the most dangerous emperor. How can he contribute at this time? It is indeed better than the general Liu Bei. It is more convincing, at least the opposition voices of the aristocrats in central Shu will be less.

So he nodded in agreement
The next day, the emperor issued an imperial edict to summon the patriarchs of various families and clans in central Shu, and summoned them to the palace after they came to Chengdu.

Then Emperor Xian took all of Liu Bei's scapegoats on himself, and kept them from the patriarchs of the aristocratic families in central Shu, saying that he, the emperor of Han, borrowed their food and grass. Even if they feel that the time is too long, they can exchange grains from Jingzhou and Yangzhou. They are also asked to help the big man when the central Shu is in peril and the big man is in danger, so as not to let the world fall to Lei Gong, a traitor.

If it was an ordinary war, it would be impossible for the last emperor like Emperor Xian to have any prestige, and it would be even more impossible for the powerful and noble families to lend food and grass to Emperor Xian, just like Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty who could not even borrow a hundred thousand taels of silver.

But the clans in central Shu have to face a rebel who is more vicious than Li Zicheng, blatantly declaring that the world will wipe out all their clans. Become common people! "

Obviously, the road that Lei Gong arranged for them is a bit better than a dead end. There is no choice but for these aristocrats and nobles will not fall back to Daqian!

Now the emperor said so, the clans in Sichuan would not be ignorant of good and evil, anyway, everyone worked together to keep Lei Gong out of Yizhou and keep the family business, so under the persuasion of the emperor, the clans in Shuzhong They still handed over grain and grass supplies to Zhao Yun one after another, but time resolved the crisis of grain and grass in Hanzhong.

Afterwards, these aristocrats confidently stayed in Sichuan to wait for the victory or defeat of the war, and those who were not confident simply took the emperor's IOUs to Jingzhou to escape the war. Open up a back road outside.

And this is exactly what Zhao Yun wanted. After the tax reform of the Han Dynasty, coupled with the development of Jiaozhou, a lot of land was reclaimed and a lot of food was hoarded. To the front line, we can only continue to hoard in Jiaozhou.It is a good thing for the big man to trade grain in Shuzhong now.

The rich and powerful families in Chengdu provided Zhao Yun with 4000 million shi of grain and grass, which was enough for the entire people in central Sichuan to eat for more than a year and a half. The food crisis in central Sichuan was relieved for a while, and Zhao Yun dismissed the corvee labor of the entire Yizhou people.It is stipulated that if the imperial court wants the people to transport grain and grass, they must provide grain every month.With this method, not only the efficiency of the people is improved, but also the transportation volume is also increased.For a time, the grain and grass transported from Chengdu to Hanzhong continued on the road of Bashu.
