Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 231
Huangpusong, Zhang Huan and Duan Jiong, the Liangzhou Sanming, opened the era of the Three Kingdoms in Chinese history after their death.

However, in the family biography course of a big family like the Guo family, the battle of Liangzhou Sanming to pacify the Northwest Qiang Rebellion is more valuable for research than those battles during the Three Kingdoms period.

Even Guo Ziyi once commented that if the Eastern Han Dynasty could only evaluate one general, it could only be Duan Jiong!

The largest Qiang rebellion in the Northwest at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was almost quelled by Duan Jiong alone. He took out more than 1 Eastern Han Central Guards and brought back [-] troops when the Qiang rebellion was put down. , and Duan Jiong lost his integrity in his later years and took refuge in the eunuchs of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which made Duan Jiong oppressed among the scholar-officials.

But what Guo Ziyi was talking about was not Duan Jiong's military talent. Guo Ziyi said: "In Liangzhou Sanming, Huang Pusong and Zhang Huan are of the same kind. chaos."

Guo Xin asked, "What about the trick?"

Guo Ziyi stroked his beard and said, "Duan Jiong's method is much simpler, and it can be summed up as killing."

"kill?"

"Duan Jiong came from a family of military generals in the Northwest. His understanding of the Qiang Rebellion in the Northwest is very simple. The Qiang Rebellion in the Northwest caused the Eastern Han Dynasty's predicament, so it only needs to kill all the Qiang people."

"So the way Duan Jiong put down the Qiang chaos is to kill them. As long as all the Qiang people are killed, there will be no Qiang chaos."

Guo Xin gasped, this passage is really cruel, and the solution to the problem is simple and rude.

Guo Xin asked: "Uncle, whose solution is feasible?"

Guo Ziyi sighed and said: "The Qiang chaos in the Northwest in the Eastern Han Dynasty was indeed caused by officials in charge of the Northwest who were too corrupt and often oppressed and oppressed the Qiang people. Several prefects and county magistrates who oppressed the Qiang people were punished, and the situation in the northwest was stabilized."

Guo Xin listened carefully, Huang Pusong's approach worked well and was generous. Could it be that my uncle wants me to learn from Huangpusong to govern Anxi?

But Guo Ziyi said: "But there is a problem with Huangpu Song and Zhang Huan's approach."

"what is the problem?"

"The prefects and magistrates who were able to serve in the northwest in the Eastern Han Dynasty were all from high-ranking families. Huang Pusong punished them, and they were quickly transferred back to Luoyang by their backers in the court. Huangpusong and Zhang Huan's policymakers died, and so on. When they returned to Luoyang, the Qiang rebelled again."

Guo Xin took a deep breath, and sure enough, she still thought too shallowly.

Rectifying the administration of officials is not an easy task.

Just like the Northwest officials in the Han Dynasty had their backers, there are also many descendants of aristocratic families who are gilded in Anxi in the Tang Dynasty.

Although Guo Xin's Taiyuan Guo family is in full swing because of Guo Ziyi's relationship, it is nothing above the court of the Tang Dynasty.

The imperial court granted Guo Xin the posthumous residence of the Beiting Protectorate, that is, the interim governor of the Beiting Protectorate. If he really manages the issue of Anxi, I am afraid that the imperial court will be able to bury him if he participates in his memorial. .

Guo Xin quickly said: "Then what about me learning from Duan Jiong?"

Hearing this, Guo Ziyi laughed instead.

"Duan Jiong can break through 500 Qiang people with [-] people, can you?"

Guo Xin was speechless, and Guo Ziyi said again: "Back then, Duan Jiong personally led his troops to chase and kill the Qiang people from Hehuang to Mobei. They chased them for three full months and wiped out a tribe of Qiang people. Can you do it?"

Guo Xin nodded quickly, he finally understood why Guo Ziyi thought Duan Jiong was the No.

Guo Ziyi said: "I don't want you to copy the methods of the predecessors. Uncle can only teach you not to be impulsive when you come to Anxi. Whether it is to rectify the administration of officials or eliminate the rebels, the most important thing is to hold the military power in your hands."

"With good soldiers, there is room for advance and retreat."

With Guo Ziyi's teachings, after Guo Xin arrived in Anxi, he rectified his military equipment and trained his troops seriously. Sure enough, he brought out the remaining remnants of the Anxi Protectorate. A while ago, he put down the rebellion in Khotan and made Guo Xin famous in Anxi. Many small countries that wanted to rebel sent people to the Anxi Protectorate to plead guilty.

But this time the rebellion of Tushiqi was different. Guo Xin knew that Tushiqi was forced to rebel by the county magistrate of Pai County, but the county magistrate Wei was born in Jingzhao Webster. After Guan dismissed Prime Minister and left Beijing, Wei Jiansu, the family uncle of County Magistrate Wei, was worshiped as prime minister by the emperor because of his contribution to accompanying the emperor to Shu.

The nephew of the prime minister, although Guo Ziyi also has the title of prime minister of Pingzhang's military and state affairs, but Guo Ziyi is the same as Pingzhang's important affairs, not the prime minister who really handles the country's affairs, and is not as influential as Wei Jiansu in the court.

Jingzhao Wei's family is a well-known family, and the Taiyuan Guo family's general family is not as influential as Wei's.

Guo Xin knew very well that after the magistrate of Wei County took office, he would drink and have fun with the literati and scholars in the county every day, and all the official duties would be handled by his subordinate staff.

In order to be able to be promoted, the county magistrate Wei continued to squeeze the Tushi cavalry, forcing Tushi cavalry to rebel.

For example, a tribe of Tushi cavalry who migrated inland had already sinicized farming, but was framed as a rebellion by the county magistrate Wei, who sent troops to massacre the entire village.

It was because of the oppression of County Magistrate Wei that the Tushi cavalry in Pai County rebelled. When it got out of hand, County Magistrate Wei sent a letter asking for help to Anxi Duhu Mansion, asking the Duhu Mansion to send troops to suppress it.

Guo Xin felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly. It was obviously the trouble caused by County Magistrate Wei, but Guo Xin was asked to come and wipe his ass.

Here, Guo Xin led troops to garrison on the edge of Pai County. In the prison in Pai County, a ragged prisoner was sighing.

Locked up with this prisoner was an unlucky player who traveled to Pai County.

This player is called Zhang Keda. He is a businessman. The player followed the westbound caravan to Kucha, but after arriving in Kucha, he decided to continue to look west, and arrived in Pai County with the goods.

Unexpectedly, the tolerance in Pai County was more terrifying than the bandits, and Zhang Keda was framed as a businessman who had a secret relationship with him, and his goods were confiscated and he was put in prison.

Zhang Dada breathed a sigh of relief, the test qualification he had obtained so hard, is he going to confess to being in the prison in Pai County?
The guy who was locked up with Zhang Dada sat on the ground and cried every day.
Zhang Dada also couldn't understand this guy's cowardly appearance. He couldn't bear it tonight. He kicked the inmate on the ground and asked:
"You are crying and crying every day, and the disturbing master will not be clean all day long!"

After saying this, Zhang Dada, who was already in an irritable mood, put his foot on the inmate.

Zhang Dada's inmate was already thin and weak, so scared that he didn't dare to make a sound after being kicked by Zhang Dada, so he hid in the corner of the cell and sobbed softly.

Seeing this inmate's appearance, Zhang Dada couldn't bear it. He walked up to the inmate and asked, "You cry all day long. What did you do to get arrested?"

"The good man spares his life, the good man spares his life!"

Although Zhang Dada is a merchant player, he also spent a lot of contribution points to strengthen his body before going west. His big and thick appearance is really scary.

Zhang Dada was annoyed again, even though he looked a little scary, but these government servants arrested him indiscriminately and imprisoned him, accusing him of colluding with Tushi Qiren was a bit too much.

Zhang Dada sat down next to his inmate and asked, "With your appearance, you can't do anything bad if you think about it. How did you get locked up?"

Zhang Dada slowed down his tone, and the inmate finally calmed down a bit. He raised his head and said, "I was originally a meritorious officer of the county government, my name was Xiao Rang, and I was arrested by the county magistrate a few days ago."

"You are a hero in the county, why were you arrested by the county magistrate?"

Zhang Dada has a very bad impression of the officials in Pai County. He came to do business honestly and dutifully, but was framed for adultery and suddenly acted as a horse, which can be seen in the administration of Pai County officials.

Hearing that this Xiao Rang used to be an official in Pai County, Zhang Dada didn't like him even more.

Zhang Keda asked, and Xiao Rang couldn't help crying.

Now Zhang Dada was even more annoyed, he kicked Xiao Rang and said, "Big man, mother-in-law, why were you arrested?"

Xiao Rang sighed again and said, "I'm arrested this time, I'm afraid I'm not going to take the blame for the county magistrate."

"To blame?"

Xiao Rang sighed and said: "I was born from a poor family. I met County Magistrate Wei during my study tour in Xijing. Later, County Magistrate Wei was appointed an official, so I followed him to pay homage to the county."

Zhang Dada nodded. Although the Tang Dynasty did not have full-time masters like the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were still many scholars who served as private staff to the prefect and county magistrate.

For example, the current positions held by the players in the Ba Mansion are actually Li Yan's personal staff, and their salaries are all paid by King Jianning.

Although the Tang Dynasty has implemented the imperial examination system, Jinshi is also quite valuable.However, only a small number of people can pass the Jinshi examination, and most of the children from poor families can't pass the Jinshi exam.

Like Xiao Rang, these children from poor families will serve as aides to some local officials.

It is quite common in Tang Dynasty for Xiao Rang to get to know the children of the aristocratic family during his study tour and follow the proprietor as an official.

"Then how do you say you want to blame County Magistrate Wei?"

Xiao Rang wept again and said: "This time, County Magistrate Wei will take the blame for the rebellion in Bai County, and want me to take the blame. Pity me for ten years of studying hard, and I am about to die in a foreign land!"

Seeing Xiao Rang's cowardly appearance, Zhang Dada couldn't help asking: "Since you were framed, why didn't you complain? Besides, even if the county magistrate Wei framed you, such a serious crime would have to be reviewed by the Beiting Governor's Office." ? Why don’t you explain your grievance clearly?”

Xiao Rang just shook his head and said: "No, no, County Magistrate Wei was born in Jingzhao Webster, but he is a son of a wealthy family. I can't beat him from a poor family like me. My parents work every day to support me to study, but I fell like this One end!"

Seeing Xiao Rang like this, Zhang Dada saw himself. Like Xiao Rang, he came from a small town as a problem solver to the city, but was framed by his boss with a background and lost his job, so he entered the game to pass the time.

Zhang Dada's tone suddenly softened, and he said, "Don't be afraid, I will help you."
