The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1231 Once and for all

The main purpose of Liu Yin taking down the three cities of Jixian, Yuyang and Changli was to resettle the more than 20 refugees who had just been rescued from the Xianbei people. Except for these three cities, the rest of Youzhou was a piece of scorched earth. They were all burned down by the vicious Xianbei people.

It is also fortunate that there are three cities in Youzhou that the Xianbei have not captured, otherwise the whole Youzhou would be a pile of rubble, and the Han army would not be able to gain a foothold at all, and it is now the cold winter season, even if the Han army wants to rebuild the cities, it will have to wait until the next year It's spring.

Jixian, Yuyang, and Changli are the three largest cities in Youzhou. Due to the continuous wars in the past five years, the population of these three cities has also been decreasing sharply. Now the Han army and refugees are stationed in these three cities. It doesn't seem too crowded.

It's just that the problem of food and grass has become more and more acute and prominent. There is no shortage of houses in these three cities, but what is lacking is food. After being besieged by the Xianbei for more than two years, the food and grass in the city are almost exhausted. With a large population, the food supply in the city can no longer be described as tense, that is the real cooking without rice.

Fortunately, Liu Yin's army brought enough food and grass for at least two months in this battle of Youzhou. Liu Yin was worried that the distance would be long and the weather would be cold. The Han army itself has no problem with the supply of food and grass.

But now there are more refugees and soldiers and civilians in the three cities, and the food and grass carried by the Han army is facing a dilemma. Liu Yin ordered that half of the military rations of the Xindu garrison be withheld and transported to Youzhou as quickly as possible. Report to Luoyang, and transfer from Luoyang.

At the same time, Liu Yin issued grain collection quotas to the counties of Jizhou and Bingzhou that are close to Youzhou, and will subsequently collect 50 dendrobium of grain and grass to Youzhou to relieve Youzhou's urgent needs.

Once the problem of food and grass is resolved, the hearts of the army and the people of the entire Youzhou will settle down. That is to say, Ji Han's national strength is strong now, and the land and resources are abundant, so that the difficult situation in Youzhou can be maintained.

Murong Shegui miscalculated in the end, he tried to use hundreds of thousands of refugees to drag down the Han army, but under Liu Yin's planning and planning, he overcame this difficulty.

Spring returns to the earth, everything recovers, and it will be the second year of Ji Han Xingguo in a blink of an eye.

Under Liu Yin's recommendation, Liu Hong was appointed by the court as the governor of Youzhou, Yan Xun was appointed as the general of Liao Dynasty, and Zhang Hua was transferred by Liu Yin as a subordinate to serve as the prime minister of King Yong.

Zhang Hua is the sixteenth grandson of Zhang Liang, a famous official in the Han Dynasty. Strategies, strategy and decisive victory, is a rare talent.Zhang Hua was also on the wrong team in the battle between Yan and You. Although he was not beheaded like the six gentlemen of Xianxi, he was also reprimanded by Sima Yan and moved to Youzhou to become a long history.

A talent like Zhang Hua was something Liu Yin couldn't ask for, so after Youzhou settled down, Liu Yin immediately let Zhang Hua take up the position of King Xiang of Yong.All officials who have the power to open the government have their own subordinates. When Liu Yin was the chief minister, he had the power to establish the government. However, the highest position among the subordinates of the chief minister at that time was only a long history of more than two thousand stones. Liu Yin After being promoted to King Yong, the status of the subordinates has also risen. Chen Shou, who was originally the chief historian, was promoted to two thousand stones, He Pan and Du Zhen, the chief enlisted in the army, also became two thousand stones. Qianshi can be in the same position as Jiuqing.However, there has been a vacancy for King Yong. This time when he arrived in Youzhou, Liu Yin let Zhang Hua take up the post, which shows how much Liu Yin appreciates Zhang Hua.

There are only three cities in Youzhou now, but after the Xianbei retreated, the entire Youzhou was included in the territory of Ji Han. After spring, the task of rebuilding Youzhou will be quite heavy, but this matter is basically the same as Liu Yin has nothing to do with it. He has entrusted Liu Hong with full authority to preside over the reconstruction of Youzhou. The manpower, material and financial resources required naturally also have the strong support of the Luoyang court. I believe that Youzhou will be restored within two or three years. To the appearance of the original heyday.

Now all Liu Yin's thoughts are on dealing with the Xianbei people.

Murong She's return to the prairie does not mean that the world will be peaceful and there will be no more wars. In fact, it is just the opposite. Murong Xianbei is like a cancer. After gaining strength, they will invade the Central Plains again.

The Hu people in the north have always been the scourge of the Central Plains dynasty. The fundamental reason is that they cannot be eradicated. They are better than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Cao Cao. Although they have won brilliant victories against the Hu people, they have failed to root out If these Hu tribes are eradicated, one Hu tribe will decline, and soon other Hu tribes will become stronger, threatening the security of the Central Plains Dynasty again.

The relationship between the Central Plains Dynasty and the northern Hu people will always be one and the other. When the Central Plains Dynasty is strong, the northern Hu people are relatively sluggish. Once the Central Plains falls into war or the dynasty declines, the Hu people will take advantage of the situation to rise and invade the Central Plains. .

This has almost become a deadlock. Don't think that the Wuhuluanhua is the darkest period of the Chinese nation. In fact, it is just the beginning. From the time of the Three Kingdoms for more than 800 years, the Central Plains Dynasty was overthrown by the northern Hu people countless times. , From the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Turks, Huihe to Khitan, Jurchen, Mongolia, and Manchuria, these powerful northern iron hoofs roared south again and again, and what a painful memory they brought to the Chinese nation.

The Great Wall is a fortification built by the rulers of the Central Plains in order to solve the problems in the north, but in fact, under the iron hooves of the Hu people, this long defensive wall is useless and has never played a role in protecting the Central Plains dynasty.

This is the evil result of passive defense. The idea of ​​defending against the enemy outside the country's gate is very absurd. If the enemy is weak, this long wall is dispensable. If the enemy is strong, how can this What the long wall can stop, the consequences of laboring and losing money, is still unable to stop the collapse of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Today's Liu Yin is also standing at the crossroads. If the methods used by the Central Plains dynasties to deal with the Hu people in the past dynasties are followed, Liu Yin should accept it at this moment. He can even repair the Great Wall left over from the Han and Wei Dynasties in the northern part of Youzhou. This is to resist the re-invasion of the Hu people in the future.

However, Liu Yin knew that this was of no use. If he wanted to truly solve the problem of the Hu people, he had to come up with a unique and effective method to solve the Hu people's scourge once and for all.
