Chapter 228 Strategic change to seek high positions
Desheng returned to Yanmen and destroyed the Yanmen bandits overnight and spread to the ears of the bandits in Shangdang and Taiyuan, which scared the group of people. They tried their best to move, and they could go as far as Yanmen could. They even went to war with the bandits in order to grab the good territory, fighting and fighting to defeat both sides, which led to the long-lost soldiers of Shangdang and Taiyuan to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits. After this battle, the bandits on Taihang Mountain were greatly reduced, but the bandits' revenge on Taiyuan and Shangdang became more and more intense. This is not the latest thing, so I won't mention it for now.
After the bandits were eliminated, Chen Yi sent troops to garrison the west of Yanmen to demolish the original hamlet, and then use these materials to build a new pass. In addition to controlling the incoming and exiting and preventing the bandits from attacking again, there is another way to prevent Yuan Shao. Yes, Chen Yi was ready to guard against Yuan Shao at this time, so it was okay to prepare early.
Now that Yanmen has reached Chen Yi's sphere of influence, Chen Yi's next development direction has many new possibilities. First, because Xihe County is the absolute base camp, it is capable of developing outward from Xihe County. The population of Xihe County can also ensure this. However, the problem is that developing north means that it is officially launched with the Huns. Chen Yi does not have the qualifications yet. If he develops south, it is Dong Zhuo's Hedong. Dong Zhuo is in the limelight now. Fighting with him is really not a good deal. Chen Yi is waiting for this old young man.
After Zi was transferred, he would not go south, so he could not go east. Now Taiyuan and Shangdang are fighting against bandits for a long time, and Chen Yi also ignored it. His idea was that when Taiyuan and Shangdang were suppressed and beaten by bandits, he would use the excuse of sending troops to support and seize Taiyuan and Shangdang. Now, this idea seems to coincide with Liu Bei and Zhou Yu later. The excuse of helping is actually for annexation, but this method is for at least two years. At this stage, Taiyuan and Shangdang will not be defeated, but as more and more taxes are tying, it will increase.
More and more people are coming up the mountain to become bandits. Jizhou, the second largest population, is the most obvious. Now all the bandits on the mountain are from Jizhou. Jizhou has a large population, but at the same time it is also very serious. Because of the huge population base, Jizhou has the largest population of Bohai, the Bohai population, is about one million. The number of these bandits on this mountain is also very normal. There are many bandits, and I have picked up a bargain, but this bargain can only be used once. After that, the bandits will be alert and will not be able to use the same trick again. Therefore, Shangdang and Taiyuan have to put them aside.
For the county, Shangjun can develop northward, but the north is a desert area. The current economic strength to plant trees and forests is a loss-making business. The west is the focus of fighting against the Qiang people. The pressure of the Qiang people in the court was equivalent to being shared by Chen Yi. It was just because the Qiang people in Shangjun suffered several losses and have now begun to invade Sili from Liangzhou. There are already some future culprits of the chaos in Xiliang in Hansui-bianzhang. Therefore, Shangjun also has no room for development, so he can only start from the surrounding area of Yanmen.
Yanmen County is a county with a large population and relatively wealthy economy in Bingzhou. It is just that the original intention of design was to defend the Great Wall, so the county city has many military facilities, and it also has a hole-ridden Great Wall and Mayi, which is still providing a place for war horses. Many of the residents are soldiers' families, which are what we often say are family and brothers and sisters behind them. The soldiers of Yanmen County are extremely capable of fighting, so many soldiers were not eliminated due to physical fitness during the screening. Most of the reasons for the elimination were that they were too old or too young, so they were removed from more than 20,000 people and retained 30,000 elite soldiers. After the west side of Yanmen was cleared, due to the need to defend the Eight Passes of Taihang, it turned out that
The soldiers were activated again, eight thousand people were used to defend the pass. After the eight passes of Taihang were opened, the mysterious veil of Youzhou was also lifted. At this time, Chen Yi could pass through Yanmen and interfere in Youzhou. At this time, Youzhou was not as good as Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan. The governor of Youzhou was not well-known. Guo Xun was a stingy and greedy person after Chen Yi's inquiry. After all, Youzhou was a poor place. Many times, the salaries of officials were transferred from Jizhou and Qingzhou. However, they met such a greedy guy, and they were stubborn. Hu Han had a deep prejudice and completely disagreed with trade with the Hu people. Therefore, the resentment was deep. The ethnic groups in Youzhou were numerous and complicated, and the situation was not optimistic.
It is also necessary to intervene in Youzhou. It is okay to wait for Liu Yu to take office or wait until Gongsun Zan kills Liu Yu, or Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun rebelled. It is obvious that intervening in Youzhou now is to make it clear that independence is going to go to war with the Han Dynasty. Now he only has three counties to go to war with the thirteen states? His mind must be broken, so he can't do this. But Chen Yi has not made any big moves for a long time (Yanmen bandits: let's be together, we are not humans). He wants to fight for the best interests before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so he will have a choice for the remaining six years. Should he be at peace and wait for the Yellow Turban Rebellion? Or should he sacrifice himself to the danger and go to Luoyang to find a good opportunity to seek? Chen Yi finally was not sure about it for the first time. Anyway, Yanmen County is the largest
The threat has been eradicated, and Chen Yi no longer has to stay in Yanmen, so he brought Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun back to the base camp of Xihe County. Cui Hua, Song Liang and Guima and Liao Fei stayed at Yanmen. After Chen Yi returned to Xihe County, Ding Hui, Sun Ren and Zhang Ping and Zhao Gu would come to support him. They would be responsible for guarding Yanmen. Shangjun is the supervisor of Xizhicai, and the generals are Fang Yue, Li Yuan, Zhou Fu, Li Hu, and Tan Jing. In addition, Xu Huang and Gao Lan are now leading troops in Shangjun. Chen Yi has a clear attitude towards the Qiang people. Those who want to trade or settle down are welcome. Those who want to rob will not be left! Xihe is mainly defensive tasks. Civil officials such as Tian Feng and Cheng Yu are all here to handle official duties. The military generals are basically only Gao Ming and Dian Wei, who are in charge of the overall situation, because
It's just that it's not necessary to manage social security. In addition, Guan Yu is now trained in the Xihe County mechanism. Judging from the current progress, he can't get out of it in less than five years. Chen Yi did not expect that this guy is so arrogant. After this trouble, it's not enough. Chen Yi wants to get rid of his temperament. It's not to make him a smooth person, but to make him not arrogant no matter when he is. Even Lu Bu and Dian Wei can go out to play with the children of Xihe County during vacation. However, Guan Yu was young but didn't take anyone seriously except Chen Yi at the beginning. People always have to work with others. The worst thing is that Zhang Laosan was killed by his subordinates. At first, the children were afraid of these two.
Personal figure and appearance, but the personalities of the two were finally loved by the children. Chen Yi also thought of a way to let the general lead the army dress up as the old man in the New Year to distribute gifts to the children of Xihe County, that is, some food toys, etc., but this action was unexpectedly won the hearts of the people. Children are the future, and a good seed will definitely sprout in their hearts, and bad seeds will definitely depend on the ability of the educator. Currently, those who have served as the old man in the moon include Dianwei Cuihua, Gaoming, Song Liang, Guima Gaolan and Lu Bu. This year is the eighth year. The initial decision of the candidate is Xu Huang. Chen Yi believes that the statement of the old man in the moon may be longer than that of Santa Claus in the West, and will reach a better future.
