At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Anyway, they couldn't bear it, so they raised troops to protest, attacked county towns and villages, declared a break with the emperor, and wanted the emperor to know their strength.

The ten counties of Jizhou were ablaze with rebellion.

Then, the flames of the rebellion were extinguished one after another, and there was no trace.

The reason is also very simple. The militiamen in the Tuntian villages surrounding the Haoqiang manor took advantage of the trend, and under the leadership of their respective instructors, they bravely resisted, blocked, and cooperated, causing great trouble and casualties to the Haoqiang rebels.

Many manor owners who were insufficiently prepared and lacking in strength were directly pushed back to the manor by a wave of backlash, and then were attacked bravely by militiamen from all directions, and fell directly into the vast ocean of the people's war, panicking all day long.

What's more, they were killed directly during the field battle, the rebel army broke up, and the rebellion was put down.

At this time, Jizhou had no governor, and there was no military camp stationed in Jizhou.

The only regular army was the five thousand guards who had just arrived in Yecheng to push the Qingzhang land, and then the army of Yuyang Camp in Youzhou.

It can be said that apart from the militia, or that Guo Peng will dispatch the Luoyang Central Army to participate in the battle in the future, the only established armed force in Jizhou is the five thousand guards.

But obviously, in the face of the huge Jizhou, the five thousand guards are powerless to counter the rebellion.

If it weren't for the militia system helping them, Jizhou would have had a hard time getting through this wave.

In the end, the political power that went deep into the grassroots still played its due role. Although it did not win a complete victory, there were also failures and deaths. There were also many villages that failed to survive, but at least not all of them.

Therefore, the Jizhou garrison may be able to cope with it.

Although there is no governor, all the officials in office who want to continue their careers, or try to make up for their mistakes and find a way to survive, are willing to do their best to fight the rebels.

Naturally, there are also a very small number of county officials who not only did not resist, but also united with local tyrants, cooperated with each other, and used their power to deal with the secondary rural regime below.

There are county magistrates, county lieutenants, and other officials in the county government. Their efforts have made the county government's government orders not smooth, weakening the resistance of the village, and not timely and adequately dispatching.

Within the scope of a county, a large number of villages will be destroyed, many people will be killed, and many resources will be looted.

It would be fine if the county government wiped out the internal thieves in time to keep the county seat, but in some counties, the county magistrate was killed or the county magistrate himself was the leader of the rebellion, directly coercing the people of the entire county to rebel together, causing heavy losses.

The county-level government and the state-level government are not very powerful governments in the framework of the Guowei regime. If they go up to the central government, they will not go down to the localities.

County and state governments really don't have much power.

Instead, it is the county-level government that has real access to local real power.

So once there is a problem with the county-level government, the entire county will be harmed by it, and it is difficult for the countryside to deal with it.

Within the ten counties of Jizhou, such a situation occurred in counties with a single digit.

Even so, it is not without people with lofty ideals and grassroots officials who are still working hard to restore the situation, leading the militias to resist desperately, guarding important areas and never admitting defeat, buying time for the regular army to counter the rebellion, and lighting the beacons and beacons, asking for help from the surrounding militias that are still safe .

In order to better promote the transmission of messages between each other, after each village is established, Guo Peng will ask them to store a certain amount of beacon fuel so that they can send a message for help when needed.

This preparation also played an important role in this great rebellion.

Peng Qi, the general of the guards who led five thousand guards to Jizhou to promote the clearing of the land, immediately realized that it was a rebellion launched by a powerful man after receiving the news that the flames were burning everywhere.

This is the same as the top-secret appointment Zhao Yun gave him before he set off.

This appointment came from the emperor himself.

The emperor asked Peng Qi to be mentally prepared. Once a powerful rebellion broke out in Jizhou, he would send news to Luoyang and try his best to stabilize the situation before reinforcements arrived.

So when he set off, Peng Qi deliberately brought a larger number of horses to ensure that the cavalry under his command had one man and two horses, and could take advantage of Jizhou's superior traffic conditions to achieve high-speed maneuvering.

This can achieve high-speed counter-insurgency.

However, when he led the cavalry of the Wei army to scatter out, what he saw was quite different from the tragic situation he had imagined.

Although Jizhou has no governor for the time being, and many important officials have fallen, the rebellion launched by the powerful did not cause large-scale turmoil.

Most of the grassroots governments in Jizhou are intact, and in the event of natural disasters and man-made disasters, their respective command systems are also independent of the higher-level administrative orders, and they are qualified to act cheaply.

Before Guo Peng had a large-scale control of the county-level government, the secondary village and township governments had their own emergency response mechanism, and they did not need to be responsible to the higher-level government. Once something happened, the grassroots government in the village and township could take care of it themselves. react to.

The militiamen quickly assembled to defend their homes without an order from the county government.

Guo Peng has been guarding against this group of people from the very beginning. He knows that those who can really be united with him and who don't want chaos in the world are these rural grassroots and old farmers, so he really believes in this group of Li Shu.

He always took maximum precautions against scholars and poor families.

From the very beginning, the village system and the militia system were designed to enhance mobilization and guard against local rebellions by scholars and tyrants.

He had known for a long time that he was bound to have a battle with these people, and the soldiers were turned into castles in the air by him, unable to collude with the local powerful to rebel, so they were killed.

Now the tyrants have lost the opportunity to collude with the scholars, but if the tyrants can still rely on themselves, there will inevitably be a leading iron man who will not hesitate to fight for his own property.

At that time, it was time for the rural system and the militia system to show their strength.

Chapter 1281 One Thousand 190 One They Cherish This Hard-Won Good Day Extremely

This time when a man-made disaster occurred and the Haoqiang Manor rebelled, everything was exactly as someone Guo had deduced.

The grass-roots regime took villages and villages as units, assembled militias to fight against them, and dealt heavy blows and containment to the powerful rebels in a fairly wide range.

Even the regular army didn't take action, the rebellion was put down, the Haoqiang manor was wiped out, and it ceased to exist.

Only a very small number of counties were occupied by powerful rebels for various reasons, and they resisted openly and defended the city. This cannot be solved by the militia, but by the regular army.

A rebellion that spread throughout Jizhou was suppressed by Jizhou militiamen in a very short period of time. The prairie fire was just ignited, but it was poured into dots by a bubble of urine, and it was not a climate.

The speed was very fast, and the result of the development of the matter was also unexpected by Peng Qi.

But the facts were so, and he couldn't help but believe that what he needed to do now was to concentrate his energy and troops to recapture the counties occupied by the rebels and eliminate the rebels there.

For the rest, I believe that grassroots government officials will handle it on their own, and Qingzhang officials sent by the imperial court will also play their due role.

The situation in Jizhou was thus brought under control.

Compared with the situation in Jizhou, although there are more troops stationed in Youzhou, the situation is more dangerous.

A powerful rebellion also broke out in Youzhou.

Moreover, Youzhou's tyrants are stronger, and even the governor of Youzhou, Xian Yufu, is from a powerful background, and many officials are also from local powerful backgrounds.

This is a problem left over from history. When Youzhou was divided internally, the pro-Guo faction eliminated the pro-Yuan faction and directly surrendered to Guo Peng, which means that Youzhou was not brought down by Guo Peng.

Later, Guo Peng took advantage of the opportunity of fighting against Xianbei and eliminating Liaodong to seize part of the interests, but the core interests of Youzhou were still in the hands of Hao Qiang.

This is someone Guo intends to find a chance to solve it in one go.

Just this time, let them all be exposed, explode by themselves, become rebels by themselves, and then solve them all in one go.

The tyrants of Youzhou were really exposed.

In fact, before the incident happened, Xian Yufu had already received the news. He was very surprised and worried, so he immediately sent people around to lobby, and tried to persuade them not to rebel.

He wanted the group to see the situation and realize how dangerous it was for them to do so.

However, the results are limited. Only a small number of families with authority and career prospects are willing to consider it, and most of them are vacillating. Few families are willing to accept Qingzhang land.

Most of the remaining powerful families are still very resistant, and their rebellion is very strong.

Their attitude is still the same, unaware of the changes of the times, and they feel that they can't bear it anymore and don't need to bear it anymore.

Later, Jizhou Haoqiang sent people to contact a rebellion, and quickly connected a large number of disaffected and resentful Haoqiang by using the local connections.

They even planned to publicly recommend Xian Yufu as the governor of Hebei. First, they would take Youzhou and cut off the connection with Hepingzhou in Hebei.

As long as Xian Yufu agreed to cooperate, they would have the opportunity to sneak attack Yuyang camp and wipe out the Yuyang camp's army.

In this way, they have the final say in the whole of Hebei.

When Xian Yufu learned of this, his face turned pale with fright. Thinking of the emperor's power, his own future, and his brother who was herding horses in Longyou, who held a central position, he was not willing to resist at all.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he sent news to the Yuyang camp and the emperor, and at the same time gathered his own private soldiers, trying to act first in Jixian County, kill the powerful people in the city, and save the Jixian county. .

But for some reason, the news leaked out. He had just organized his family's private soldiers and entered Ji County, when the tyrants rebelled.

He did not know if the message had been sent, but the rebellion had occurred.

With great difficulty, he led his private soldiers and Jixian's local armed forces to stabilize the situation in Jixian County, and attacked and killed some powerful families. As a result, when he went to the city, he saw that Jixian was surrounded by wars in all directions.

Bad, the situation in Youzhou is about to go wrong.

I hope the army of Yuyang camp can react.

This is Youzhou's greatest hope.

However, even though Xian Yufu had been the governor of Youzhou for so many years, he never expected that the greatest hope of Youzhou was not the [-] Wei army in Yuyang camp, but the rural government and the militias in the whole territory.

At the beginning, Youzhou faced the threat of Xianbei, Karasuma and Liaodong, so after someone Guo defeated Yuan Shao and occupied Youzhou, he was very concerned about the construction of villages and militias in Youzhou.

The military instructors assigned to Youzhou are all veterans of the army with a lot of military exploits and achievements. Some of the weapons assigned to them were even sent directly after they came out of the military factory, in order to reduce the threat of Karasuma, Xianbei and Liaodong .

Once they try to invade Youzhou, these rural militiamen can immediately launch defenses, fight to the death with the invaders on a vast land, and help the army share a little pressure, so as not to let them go straight in too hard.

Just like the people in Youzhou in the former Han Dynasty.

The difference is that during the Wei Empire period, they received organization and help from the central government. The degree of organization, training and combat effectiveness were incomparable, just to fight against such threats.

Before the Wei Empire wiped out the three major regimes in the south and shifted its attention to the north, the militia system in Youzhou played a very important role.

For those scattered Xianbei cavalry that often suddenly crossed the army blockade and appeared in Youzhou to plunder, the militiamen fought back and dealt the invaders a head-on blow.

Therefore, the border defense issue at that time was included in the vast ocean of the people's war, allowing the Wei army to calm down the three major regimes in the south of the Yangtze River and establish rule over the whole country.

Time has passed, the Liaodong regime was eliminated, and Pingzhou was established. The Karasuma people and Xianbei people were completely finished together, and Mozhou was established in their old place.

The emergence of these two states directly turned Youzhou from a frontier to a hinterland.

Millions of people from Karasuma and Xianbei were beaten into slaves and laborers by the Wei Empire, and lost the threat to the lives of the people of Youzhou. Youzhou has not been so safe since its establishment.

Under such circumstances, the dominant position of Youzhou connecting Pingzhou to the east and Mozhou to the north has become an opportunity for development. Many people have made money through Hebei's support for Pingzhou's construction and commodity trade, and lived a good life.

They cherish this hard-won good day extremely.

Before the tyrants made the rebellion, many village officials also smelled something bad through various channels, prepared secretly, and reported the news layer by layer. That's how Xian Yufu got the news that the tyrants were planning to make chaos.

His efforts failed, and he failed to stop the powerful rebellion, but the Youzhou militiamen, who had anticipated this in advance, still made quite adequate preparations.

Once the tyrants start to make trouble, the smoke of war will spread all over the land of Youzhou.

It's time for battle!

At this time, it had only been two years since Guo Peng completely wiped out Xianbei, and the good days in Youzhou had not been too long, and none of them had forgotten how they had guarded against the Xianbei cavalry.

So under the leadership of the military instructors, they lighted up the wolf smoke and awakened the dormant will to fight on the land of Youzhou. Taking villages and townships as units, they assembled militias to confront the invading powerful rebels head-on, and fought desperately with the rebels.

Grassroots officials and military instructors became the most basic commanders. They followed the direction of the wolf smoke to support the villages under attack, and looked for opportunities to sneak attack the lairs of the powerful, that is, their manors, and went in to make a fuss and wipe them out. manor.

While the powerful rebels launched an offensive, the rural militia also launched a tit-for-tat counterattack. People died in battle every moment, and fierce fighting was carried out every moment.

Chapter 1282 One thousand 190 two liquidation is not complete

The leaders of the rebels did not seem to have expected that they would encounter desperate resistance from the militias in the village as soon as they started their rebellion.

The smoke of the war rose into the sky, and those fierce militiamen brandished knives and spears and formed an army to meet the rebels.

The battle was fought well, with well-founded advances and retreats. On the contrary, the rebel army, which had a superior force, lost its advances and retreats, suffered heavy casualties, and was even repelled by the militiamen who had fewer numbers than them.

The front army collapsed, the central army collapsed, and the rear army fled directly. The cronies and superintendents could not stop this mob.

Don't hurry up?

This is how many seemingly elite rebel teams with a large number of troops were defeated by the village militia.

They didn't want to fight at all, and they didn't dare to fight. They were forced to join the battle, not because their families were all in the hands of the Patriarch, and they had to join the rebels for fear of their families being hurt.

But in this situation, our own defeat is a foregone conclusion, so why not run?Don't worry about him falling apart!

Then the militiamen pushed back all the way, pushed to the lair of the powerful rebels, and beat them again around their lair of the manor.

Youzhou has only been in chaos for a few days, and most areas have fallen into the vast ocean of people's war. A few areas have fallen into a confrontation because the powerful forces are deeply entrenched and difficult to eradicate, such as the Jixian area.

The political center, the economic center, and the strongholds of the impoverished tyrants are concentrated here, and they fought fiercely with Xian Yufu to seize the city.

Xian Yu Fu topped his helmet and armor, and personally went to the city to command private soldiers and government armed forces to defend the city, waiting for reinforcements.

At this moment, Yuyang camp has already started to act.
