The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 446 Jinghai rebels, ordered by Liu Bian

In the hall of Qifeng Pavilion, standing next to Liu Bian were Liu Zhi and Liu Xun. They beat Jing Zhaoyin Ye Honglang's grandson yesterday. Ye Honglang didn't dare to take them, so he could only submit a letter to Liu Bian.

The letter explained what happened, and asked his grandson to attach a letter of apology.Liu Bian was reprimanding them, and Liu Ji came here in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong in Xuzhou!" Liu Ji said.

"What's wrong?" Liu Bian asked.

"General Li Cunxiao made a surprise attack on Hailing, and his generals Zhang Pengjing and Di Cang captured the city and killed Tan Hong's younger brother Tan Chen. After the rebels learned about the defense line at Denglongkou, they thought they had no way out and took His Royal Highness's The Chinese army was defeated, and the crown prince was shot in the arm. The army has retreated to Zhongli, and Hailing and Yandu were recaptured by the rebels." Liu Ji continued.

"Where did they get so many people to take back the city?" Liu Bian asked.

Obviously they don't have many people in Jiangbei, and the army is all in Jiangnan.The sea is definitely impassable, and the river is also blocked.He couldn't figure out where the rebel reinforcements came from.

"They scuttled the big ship at the mouth of Jinghai, which prevented the Yizhou navy from entering the river for reinforcements. The navy in the Yangtze River was attacked by their fireboats and had to retreat to Wancheng after suffering heavy losses. They crossed the river in Jinghai, 30 The army defeated the Jiaozhou troops in Yandu." Liu Ji continued.

Hearing his words, Liu Bian was very angry.He knew that Liu Hao was guilty of idealism, and his battle in Xuzhou went so smoothly.So much so that he and his soldiers thought that Xuzhou's rebels were vulnerable, which made Xuzhou's rebels counterattack.

If you take the rebels seriously, you won't give them the chance to go north.As long as they occupy the cities in Jiangbei, the rebels have no strategic depth in Jiangnan at all.Fortunately, he was driven back to Zhongli by the rebels, and most of the land in Jiangbei fell into the hands of the rebels.

"Hmph! Pass the decree, let the students of the first phase of the senior general training class of the Military and Political College go to Xuzhou, and the crown prince will follow them to study as the commander. Winning Xuzhou will be their final exam!" Liu Bian said with sharp eyes.

"Isn't this too big for a small use?" Liu Ji asked.

Liu Bian took a sip of water and said: "The prince is still young after all. If he leads an army in the first battle and fails, it will have a blow to his self-confidence. Let Bai Qi, Huo Qubing, and Wei Qing teach him how to fight, and what is a big man?" Military might!"

"Yes, I'll do it now." Liu Ji said with his hands clasped.

When he was about to leave, Liu Zhi and Liu Xun followed him and wanted to slip away together.

"Where do you two want to go?" Liu Bian's voice came.

"Run!" Liu Zhi shouted.

Before he and Liu Xun ran a few steps, Liu Bian grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back to the hall.

"Asshole, go to Wu Luzhen to pick out gifts. Let him take you to apologize to Ye Honglang and his grandson." Liu Bian yelled loudly.

"Yes."

"Son obeys."

Seeing that Liu Bian didn't make a move, the two hurriedly agreed to come down.Speaking of yesterday, when they competed with Ye Kai for the rare objects from the Western Regions, Ye Kai was the first to do so.As long as I don't get beaten, isn't it just an apology, what a big deal.

When they left, a guard came over, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, urgent report from the Nandeng Room."

"Oh?"

Opening the letter, it was from Jiang Xin.All the foreshadowings hidden by the Confucius family in Qingzhou have been pulled out, and order will be restored in Qingzhou within this year.However, the newly appointed Qingzhou Muliang Xinzhi seems to have a relationship with the Tan family in Xuzhou, and they have not been able to find evidence.

He wanted to give Liu Bian some relief in advance, and he also wanted Liu Bian to give him instructions.

Now the situation in Xuzhou is delicate, if there is another disturbance in Qingzhou, then I will shake the foundation of the great man.More than two years of anti-insurgency wars have caused complaints from the people.No less than 10 people died in the three states, and countless injured.

Although the tax revenue of the big man is enough to support the war, the incidental losses also make the Zhongshu Province very anxious.Liu Bian didn't want to procrastinate any longer, he wanted to let the top generals of the big man solve the battle.

This is one of the reasons why he opened the first training class for senior generals. Nowadays, the Han Dynasty is also constantly rebellious. If the ruling strategy is not fundamentally changed, the Han Dynasty will be dragged down by endless rebellions.

Residents in the occupied areas have different languages, cultures and traditions.Sinicization of them is imminent, and Zhang Juzheng and the others have already started preparing for the new imperial examination.I want to select more talents from all over the country to promote Sinicization.

"Reply to Jiang Xin, and don't touch him without evidence. Qingzhou can no longer rebel, so he must investigate carefully." Liu Bian said.

"Yes!"

Liu Bian stood on the top floor of Qifeng Pavilion, looking at the calm surface of Bashui.There are many emotions in my heart, why didn't I expect that I would be able to ascend the throne step by step and proclaim myself emperor.It has laid down such a vast territory, but the truth that it is easy to start a business and difficult to maintain it is correct everywhere.

Now he has many civil servants and military generals, all of whom are talented people.But things like rebellion are beyond their control.In the final analysis, it was too early for him to act against the powerful family.He is also a human being, subject to emotions.When the Xuzhou rebellion was put down, he let Liu Hao take over the government affairs completely, and he went to West Asia to visit.

"General Wei, is Your Highness the Crown Prince feeling better?" Du Yu said to Wei Maoshi, clasping his hands.

Wei Maoshi said: "It's much better, you can go to the ground now."

In fact, Liu Hao's injuries were much more serious than what was stated in the letter. Not only was he shot in the arm, but he fell from the horse and broke two ribs.

He was afraid that Liu Bian and Bao Si would be worried, so he deliberately concealed the real injury.This disastrous defeat hit him hard. He didn't expect that he would be defeated by the rebels by concentrating his superior force.

If responsibility is divided, he must be the culprit in his pride and complacency.Now the troops are resting in Zhongli, the logistical supplies are stretched, and the supply lines are harassed by rebel rangers all day long.

The morale of the battalion was low, and the plague was rampant, and many soldiers were infected with the plague.Just when he was at a loss, Li Cunxiao rushed to Zhongli with his troops.

Accompanied by a messenger from Chang'an, he felt very sad when he saw Liu Bian's handwritten letter.Liu Bian didn't criticize him, but just comforted him, saying that he also lost a lot of battles when he first joined the army.He also told him the news that Bai Qi and others were about to arrive in Xuzhou, which made him very excited.

He did learn a lot of military art and combat examples, and the Xuzhou battlefield was his first real unified army battle.He found that there was still a big gap between what was told in the book and reality. Li Cunxiao's military strength was beyond the limit, and he was brave enough that no one could match him.But when it comes to strategic vision, he is not even as good as Wei Maoshi.

When strategists like Wei Qing, Bai Qi, and Han Xin arrived, he did not believe that he would fail again.He did not want to accept Liu Bian's appointment as commander-in-chief of the armed forces.He has to rely on his own merits to get there, not on having a good father.

"Wei Maoshi, I dictate that you write a letter to Chang'an." Seeing Wei Maoshi spread the paper, Liu Hao continued: "Write a letter to my father and ask him to cancel the appointment of me as the commander-in-chief of the three armies. I will just be a staff officer, follow Learn from the top famous generals of the great men."
