Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 64 Seeking Donglai (recommended collection)

Chen Gong carefully analyzed the situation in the vicinity of Beihai, and believed that in order for farmers to produce with peace of mind, they must first eliminate the bandits and remnants of the Yellow Turbans nearby.Therefore, Chen Gong proposed a strategy of equal emphasis on suppression and recruitment, and asked Zhang De to lead troops to wipe out the remnants of bandits and remnants in the vicinity. In order to encourage production and restore people's livelihood, the farmland was changed to the [-]% system, that is, the government will share [-]% of the annual harvest, and the farmers will share [-]%.

Zhang De ordered Huang Zhongzong and Bao to guard the city, while he led Guan Hai, Liu Pi and Gong Du to lead four thousand troops to suppress the bandits.Thanks to Guan Hai as a guide, the bandit suppression went smoothly. Many bandits and bandits were peasants who could not survive. Seeing Beihai farming, these people put down their weapons and went on to become farmers. Virtue is wiped out.

In October of the second year of Zhongping, Zhang De wiped out more than [-] bandits, large and small, in Beihai, and Beihai finally settled down.

In November, Jiao He, governor of Qingzhou, was ordered to return to Beijing to receive a reward. Finally, no one in Qingzhou restrained Zhang De anymore.

……

"My lord, [-]% of the free land in Beihai has been divided up, and many people from other places have flocked to Beihai. In addition, the illegal salt investigated this month!" Zong Bao took a document and handed it to Zhang De.

Zong Bao was originally a general, but this guy's kung fu is really not very good. Both Liu Pi and Gong are much better than him.However, Zhang De found that Zong Bao had some talents in internal affairs, and now he had no internal affairs talents under his command, so he asked General Zong Bao to do some civil work.

"There are so many, General Zong, why is this private salt repeatedly prohibited?" Zhang De asked.

"My lord, I don't know! Since I came to Qingzhou, I have investigated and dealt with a lot of private salt every month, and this month is not much!" Zong Bao said.

Illegal salt has been banned repeatedly, mainly because the salt tax of the Han Dynasty is too high.Many ordinary people cannot afford official salt and have to buy private salt.So private salt dealers became rampant.More importantly, private salt is very profitable. Although the big man has imposed severe punishments on private salt dealers, he still repeatedly prohibits them.Every time the official salt passes through a place, [-]% of the salt tax is charged, and Beihai is the main trading base for sea salt in Qingzhou, and the salt tax is even heavier.Thinking of this, Zhang De said: "The order will go on. From next month, the official salt tax of Qingzhou will be reduced to [-]% of the original level. At least the people in Beihai must be able to eat salt!"

After giving the order, Zhang De sighed, although the salt here is cheap, but the price of this official salt transported to the inland is already comparable to gold.If you want to completely ban private salt, it is not enough to just reduce the salt tax, but also to crack down on private salt dealers from the source.But the source of selling private salt is in Dongnae,
But after all, Donglai is no longer under his jurisdiction. Although the governor Jiaohe is not in Qingzhou, Donglai still has a Donglai Order, but he still has to find a way to enter Donglai in a legitimate way.

Thinking of this, Zhang De found Guan Huan and said, "Guan Hai, I have a task for you!"

"My lord, please tell me anything!" Guan Hai said.

"Hehe, go do your old job!"

……

In November of the first year of Zhongping, Zhang Deling Guan Hai led a thousand elite soldiers pretending to be robbers into Donglai.Since Zhang De ordered that harassment of ordinary people is strictly prohibited, the wealthy households in Donglai were all unlucky and moved to Donglai County one after another.Donglai Ling sent people to conquer three times, but they were all defeated by Guan Hai.

For more than a month, Dong Lai Ling was devastated by Guan Hai.Donglai County is vast and sparsely populated. Originally there were 2000 guards in the county, but the Donglai Order paid [-] for nothing.The remaining [-] people are also veterans. They are not good at fighting, but they are very strong at fleeing, and they have little combat effectiveness.So it's normal that they can't beat Guan Hai's thousand elite soldiers.

In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when Donglai County was celebrating the Spring Festival, Donglai Ling also had breakfast with his aunts and wives in the mansion.

Outside the city, a dozen people surrounded a car and walked slowly towards the county town.When they reached the door, the guards immediately stopped them and shouted, "What are you doing!"

Immediately, a person walked up beside the car, and said with a smile: "Master, we are doing our best to show off, and now we just take advantage of the Spring Festival to make some money." As he spoke, he took out a large amount of money from his pocket and stuffed it into the guard at the city gate. hands.

"Okay, let's go in!" The guard said cheerfully.

Next, the guards put in three more groups of acrobats, four groups of acrobats, and one group of mourners.

That night, when everyone was sitting around the table for the reunion dinner, those acrobats who had entered the city during the day quietly killed the city gate guards and opened the city gate.Guan Hailing's army took advantage of the situation and rushed into the county seat, heading straight for Donglai Lingfu.

Most of the defenders in the city went home for the New Year, but the people heard the shouts of killing outside, and closed the windows and doors one after another, and no one dared to come out.More than 1000 people from Guan Hai went to the Donglai Lingfu, but they didn't encounter any obstacles.

Guan Hai took the lead and rushed into Dong Lai Ling's mansion, and then began to look for Dong Lai Ling, and finally found Dong Lai Ling under a bed.Guan Hai grabbed Dong Lai Ling out, only to hear Dong Lai Ling tremblingly saying: "Heroic man, spare my life, heroic man, spare my life, I will give you money, as much as you want, as long as you spare my life."

Guan Hai said viciously: "Where is the money, take it out!"

Dong Lailing scrambled and scrambled to bring Guan Hai to his room, and pulled out three large wooden boxes from under the bed. When he opened it, two boxes were yellow scarves, while the other box was a whole box of pearls.

Guan Hai snorted coldly: "This dog official is really greedy, hum, we took away these people's anointing, thank you very much!" He chopped off Dong Lai Ling's head with a knife.

……

The next day, the city heard that Dong Lai Ling's head was in a different place, and there was a sudden chaos. Dong Lai Ling's masters and staff were leaderless, and many people simply packed up their bags and ran away.The rest are gathering to discuss the matter.

"Master Zhang, what should we do? The thieves have already entered the city. Today is the county magistrate, maybe tomorrow it will be us!"

"I can't help it, you all talk about what to do!"

"Or let's all run away!"

"That can't be done. The sea salt tax is a fat sheep. Isn't that what we came here for? Fang Dali has done us a lot in the past few months." Fang Dali is the largest private salt dealer in Donglai. He will give half of his income to honor Donglai Ling and his teachers, and Donglai Ling and his teachers will turn a blind eye to him and close their eyes!The so-called people die for money, birds die for food, everyone thought about Fang Dali's filial piety every month, and they gave up the idea of ​​running away.

"This group of thieves came to the county in less than three months after they got up. I think we still have to find a way to kill these thieves!"

"Kill them, why, rely on the two thousand old and weak in the city?"

"Of course we can't do it, but we can ask others to help!"

"Who?" everyone asked in unison.

"Beihai Governor Zhang De!"
