Fantasy Three Kingdoms: Four knots in Taoyuan at the beginning

In short, Nanyang will definitely become Jingzhou's next strategic location, and it must be firmly controlled by the state government.

At that moment, Guo Jia separated from Chen Yuan and the others. Chen Yuan took Xu Shu and Lu Su to continue on the road. As for Guo Jia, he had to wait a few days before entering Wancheng to avoid attracting the attention of others.

The arrival of Chen Yuan had already been passed on to Qin Jie through Feige.

Qin Jie had been known for a long time for Chen Yuan, the No. [-] figure in the Jingzhou army, and he also had a good impression of Chen Yuan in his heart.

Because of the policies that Chen Yuan advocated, in Qin Jie's view, Chen Yuan was a true supporter of the imperial court.

Qin Jie believes that these policies of Chen Yuan are all inherited from the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.

Actually it is.

At first glance, these policies of Chen Yuan seemed a bit shocking, but in fact the Han court had already done these things in the past.

Therefore, the historical foundation laid by the Qin and Han Dynasties for the next few thousand years is not just talk.

The various systems of later generations are nothing but modifications based on the Qin and Han systems, and there is nothing new.

The three provinces and six ministries are nothing more than the changes of the Sangong and Jiuqing. The military merit system has also been passed on. The tax system is nothing more than changing the head and land. The same is true for the salt and iron monopoly.

However, the system is there, it depends on whether you have the determination and ability to implement it.

Liu Bei and Chen Yuan carried out this kind of ability and determination.

Strictly speaking, Liu Bei and Chen Yuan are the true successors of the great Han.

The so-called orthodoxy means that those who can inherit and develop the Chinese system are orthodox.

To put it more bluntly, the system is orthodox.

Because population and system are the basis for the continuation of a group or even a nation.

The reason for saying this is that population is the foundation of everything, without people there is nothing.

The system is the most distinctive feature that distinguishes them from other groups and nations.

Institutions are the manifestation of a civilization and the sum of the general order in which a society operates.

Qin Jie is a loyal supporter of the Han system, which is one of the reasons why he joined Liu Bei.

In his view, Liu Bei is actually implementing various systems of the imperial court.

Therefore, when Chen Yuan came to the gate of Wancheng, Qin Jie led a group of people to welcome Chen Yuan at the gate.

First, I wanted to see what kind of person Chen Yuan was.

Secondly, it is also respect for Chen Yuan, not for Chen Yuan's identity and status or achievements, but for Chen Yuan's system that can make Liu Bei honor the surname of a great man.

With such thoughts in mind, the meeting between the two was naturally very harmonious.

Chen Yuan also respected Qin Jie very much, because he was indeed a capable and good official.

Not only is he capable, but he is also kind to the people.

In Chen Yuan's view, it is inevitable that Qin Jie will not be able to enter the Jingzhou center as an official in the future.

In other words, Chen Yuan felt that Qin Jie could become the center of the court and become an important minister of the court in the future.

Knowing that Qin Jie greeted him outside the city gate, Chen Yuan didn't hold back, got out of the carriage early and walked to Qin Jie.

Without letting Qin Jie salute himself first, Chen Yuan saluted Qin Jie.

"At the beginning, you are only a child of the younger generation. How can I bother you to go out to greet me? It really frustrates me."

Qin Jie is nearly forty now, and he can indeed be regarded as Chen Yuan's senior.

Qin Jie asked with a smile and said, "Don't be fooled by this. As the prefect of Nanyang, I am a subordinate of the Jingzhou Mufu. Isn't it reasonable to welcome the Shangguan? How can we talk about breaking evil?"

Qin Jie was joking.

Chen Yuan had no choice but to salute Qin Jie, and then signaled Qin Jie to go first.

Naturally, Qin Jie would not make things difficult for Chen Yuan.

The reason why he came out to greet Chen Yuan was also to show Nanyang powerful people.

Although he is strong, but Nanyang's powerful forces are too powerful. Although he is not difficult to move in Nanyang, it is still difficult.

Now he is also taking advantage of Chen Yuan's power to beat Nanyang Haoqiang.

Of course, this was Chen Yuan's plan that he didn't know about, and if he knew, he wouldn't have done it.

So, when the two came to the prefect's mansion and abandoned others, Chen Yuan told Qin Jie about his plan, and Qin Jie immediately clapped his hands: "Oh, old man, isn't this a big deal for Zichu?"

The scene Qin Jie did at the gate of the city would definitely make Nanyang Haoqiang wary.

Chen Yuan smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay to be a public servant at the beginning. This way of doing things will not hinder my great affairs, and it will also help me a lot."

Yes, Chen Yuan and Qin Jie get along so well, and Chen Yuan even treats Qin Jie with the courtesy of his descendants, which will definitely make Nanyang Haoqiang fearful.

Moreover, after Chen Yuan entered the prefect's mansion, he did not summon other officials of the prefect's mansion, but had a secret talk with Qin Jie, which made Nanyang Haoqiang a lot of suspicion.

No, several powerful men in Nanyang also followed Qin Jie to meet Chen Yuan, but Chen Yuan ignored them and had a happy chat with Qin Jie, which inevitably made them a little unhappy.

So what if you, Chen Yuan, are from Jingzhou, this is Nanyang, let alone you, even if you come today, you will treat Nanyang with kind words.

After all, the reason why Emperor Guangwu was able to sit on the throne of the emperor, Nanyang Haoqiang contributed a lot and paid a lot.

Of course, all of their efforts have been doubled and earned back.

However, in their view, the Nanyang people helped Emperor Guangwu defeat the big man, and the others were just followers of power.

They were able to go out of the city gate to meet Chen Yuan today, and in their thinking, this was enough to give Chen Yuan face.

But who would have thought that Chen Yuan stepped on them directly.

They didn't answer them at all, as if they didn't have people like them in their eyes.

This made my heart proud, and I always thought that Nanyang Haoqiang, who was number one in the world, could bear it in his heart.

Now the person in charge of the Deng family, or the head of the family, is Deng Xilong. He is Deng Xiangshou's uncle, and Deng Xiangshou's father's name is Deng Xijiao.

Here again, Deng Xijiao's daughter-in-law is Hongnong Yang's daughter, and this daughter is Yang Xiu's eldest aunt.

So Yang Xiu and Deng Xiangshou are aunt cousins.

Of course, Yang Xiu didn't think much of Deng Xiangshou.

In Yang Xiu's view, if Deng Xiangshou was from the Yang family, he would have been beaten to death long ago.

Yang Xiu could see through Deng Xiangshou's character as well, he is a lustful and licentious person.

I really don't know how the Deng family raised such a son.

In the past, Yang Xiu often talked about his aunt, asking him to discipline his son.

But Yang felt that his son, as the combination of Yang and Deng, apart from the crown prince, no one was more noble than his son.

So what if it's absurd, those untouchables should be honored.

Yang Xiu was greatly shocked by Auntie's thoughts.

My aunt was a well-educated person when she was at home, how could she become like this all these years.

Although Yang Xiu has all kinds of tempers of a nobleman, he still has some sympathy for the common people.

This is not kindness, but the sympathy of the strong for the weak.

Deng Xilong is now the magistrate of Nanyang County, and later in the period of Emperor Xian, he even achieved the position of governor of Xiangyang.

In a county, Jun Cheng can be regarded as the number two figure.

Among the counties of the Great Han Dynasty, the prefect was undoubtedly the prefect with the highest status, and the following were the county magistrates and county lieutenants.

One is in charge of political affairs and the other is in charge of military affairs.

Now the governor of Nanyang County is Deng Xilong, and the captain of Nanyang County is Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was not very mature at first, but after these years of practice, Liu Bei felt that he could do it, so he asked him to come to Nanyang as a county lieutenant.

Wei Yan is indeed a great general, and after coming to Nanyang, it really made Qin Jie feel better.

You know, Qin Jie has a lot of troops under his command.

This is due to the pacification of the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang.

After the Yellow Turban was pacified, Qin Jie abolished some, but there were still [-] county soldiers.

This is the foundation of Qin Jie's fight against Nanyang's tyrants.

Originally, Qin Jie didn't have any capable men to take charge of these county soldiers. If this continues, as time goes on, Nanyang's tyrants will definitely win over the five thousand county soldiers.

After all, Qin Jie is the prefect, so it is impossible to have so much energy to lead these county soldiers all the time.

Wei Yan's arrival just solved his problem.

Not only is Wei Yan powerful, but Wei Yan is almost at the first rank now.

Moreover, Wei Yan's military ability is extremely strong. He has not been a Nanyang County Captain for a long time, and through various means, he has firmly controlled the five thousand soldiers in his hands.

This is also one of Chen Yuan's confidence to subdue Nanyang's tyrants.

So, after talking with Qin Jie, Chen Yuan called Wei Yan over.

When he was at the city gate earlier, Chen Yuan didn't talk to Wei Yan too much.

Because there is no need, this guy Wei Yan has studied with Chen Yuan.

The reason for this is Liu Bei's intention.

Because Liu Bei thought that Wei Yan's temper was a bit like Guan Yu's at the beginning, and ordinary people might not have good results teaching him.

Of course, it is necessary to send him to Guan Yu for training, but before that, he needs to cultivate his overall view.

It can be seen from this that Liu Bei really wanted to train Wei Yan as a handsome talent.

It might be a compatibility issue.

Some people see each other right the first time they meet, such as Liu Guan, Zhang Chen, and Liu Bei and Wei Yan.

Don't think that Wei Yan's reputation was not very good later, but when Liu Bei was around, Wei Yan was really a loyal general.

When Wei Yan came to study with Chen Yuan, he was a little dissatisfied with Chen Yuan at first.

But who is Chen Yuan? After a few fights, Wei Yan became honest.

It was not Guo Jia who tried the taste of a small black house for the first time, but Wei Yan.

After closing the small black room a few times, Wei Yan became honest.

Of course, this is only one aspect of the reason.

More importantly, Chen Yuan has a relatively equal attitude towards Wei Yan. In the past, there was no hard pressure in teaching. They were all based on reason, combining theory with practice. Coupled with Chen Yuan's extensive knowledge, he finally convinced Wei Yan and was willing. shouted Mr.

As soon as Wei Yan came over, he saluted Chen Yuan and said, "Mr. Wen has seen you."

Qin Jie was taken aback.

Seeing Qin Jie's expression, Chen Yuan said lightly: "Mr. Wen once studied with me for a few days. Originally, I didn't let him call Mr. Master, but Mr. Wen insisted on doing so, so Yuan followed him."

Qin Jie was slightly shocked.

Now he finally has a deep understanding of Chen Yuan's status in Jingzhou.

A county lieutenant like Wei Yan always calls him Mr., military adviser, and military adviser. This is really not for nothing.

What is a military division, a division of an army.

Moreover, Qin Jie also knew how arrogant Wei Yan was. If he hadn't had some military achievements, he might not be able to convince Wei Junwei.

Qin Jie was shocked and didn't talk about him.

Chen Yuan said directly to Wei Yan: "Master Wen, can all the five thousand soldiers be under control now?"

Wei Yan nodded: "Sir, the soldiers of Nanyang County always obey the orders of your sir."

Hearing what Wei Yan said, Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel relieved.

Although Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were accompanying him, Chen Yuan did not bring many soldiers out after all.

At that time, if the face is really torn apart, there will always be insufficient manpower.

Now that we have these [-] county soldiers, we will be much more confident in our actions.

Just as Chen Yuan was relieved, Wei Yan said again: "Sir, although these five thousand soldiers are under my control, there is one thing Yan has to say."

"what's up?"

"At the beginning, the prefect once recruited an army to suppress the Yellow Turban. This army has gone through repeated battles, and its strength has reached nearly 3. After the Yellow Turban was pacified, the prefect dismissed most of the soldiers and returned to the fields. Only the five thousand soldiers of the county are left. According to my knowledge You know, many of the disbanded county soldiers were recruited by Nanyang Haoqiang, and if something unexpected happens, these talents need to be considered.”

Qin Jie said helplessly: "What Wen Chang said is true. In fact, I don't want to dismiss those soldiers. It's just that although Nanyang is rich, the prefect's mansion is not rich. It can maintain the scale of five thousand soldiers at most. There are not so many soldiers." Qian Liang, in desperation, can only disband them, what can they do!"

It's not that Qin Jie doesn't know that once these county soldiers who have gone through the war are disbanded by him, they will inevitably be accepted by the powerful family as a part.

But Qin Jie couldn't help it. How could he support soldiers without money and food?
Therefore, it can only be disbanded.

Chen Yuan rubbed his chin, this matter is also a trouble.

Soldiers who have seen blood are definitely different from soldiers who have not seen blood.

Moreover, these county soldiers have fought against the Yellow Turban for a long time, so they can be regarded as veterans.

"Wenchang, do you estimate how many of the more than 2 soldiers who were disbanded were recruited by the powerful?"

Wei Yan seemed to have been prepared for a long time, without even thinking about it: "Nearly half of them, ten thousand people."

Don't think that this number is too much. With the powerful strength, it is easy to raise [-] pieces.

You must know that this is divided up by all the tyrants in Nanyang.

A family of several hundred, shouldn't be too easy, okay?

Like the Deng family, let alone a few hundred, they can afford to support even a few thousand people.

"Well, there are as many as 1. So, the Nanyang Haoqiang trilogy may add up to more than [-]?"

Qin Jie interjected: "More than that, as far as I know, the total number of songs of each school is no less than [-]."

Chen Yuan couldn't help but click twice in his heart.

Look, look, this is the powerful landlord.

It is easy to keep [-] songs. Once something happens, these [-] songs can be transformed into a regular army.

The combat effectiveness of the powerful trilogy is stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. After all, they can eat enough and can conduct relatively sufficient training.

It seems that the first step I have to solve is the problem of unequal military strength.

So how to solve it?
