In July 190, Liu Ye, the general of chariot and cavalry, left in Luoyang to deal with military and political affairs. General Anton led ten thousand soldiers and was in charge of dispatching tiger amulets.
On the Bank of Luoshui, Liu Ye mobilized 30000 troops and personally led the expedition. Zhang jaw, pound, Ma Chao, Xu Huang and other generals accompanied him, joined the army, Jia Xu, counsellor, and vowed to fight in the northern expedition!
"General, there's nothing delicious at home, only the coarse grain. If you don't like it, please take it with you."
"General, this is a cake made by my mother. Please give it to Mr. Wang. Take it."
Liu Ye's 30000 troops were stopped by the "100000 army" before they could go out for the battle.
A Liangzhou soldier held out his hand to block the cake, but said, "Auntie, the general has an order that you should not collect the common people's things, or you will have to deduct the military pay. I really can't ask for it."
More than 50 years old, gray haired aunt a face difficult, suddenly slipped into his arms: "you eat quickly, still warm, don't let the general see it."
"This..." Liangzhou soldiers face embarrassed, in the end is to eat or not to eat?
"Eat it, eat it. Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and took all the grain away. If it had not been for the general's long journey to transport grain from the central part of the pass, my aunt would have been dead. Now I have borrowed and paid back." The aunt said shrewdly.
"Ah... Auntie, I'll eat it!"
"Eat, eat, eat more, not enough." The aunt looked at him and saw that he was eating sweetly. She couldn't help laughing. The kindness in her eyes seemed to be looking at her son...
I heard that Liu Ye was going to lead the army to the northern expedition of Dong Zhuo. People around Luoyang City gathered spontaneously, forming a huge stream of people, and constantly took out rice wine and cakes and other dry food and handed them cool State soldiers.
Many soldiers in Liangzhou were eating cakes handed over by the common people and had a knowing smile on their faces.
No wonder the general usually teaches us to be king teachers. It turns out that as long as we are king teachers, we don't need to use knives to coerce the people. They are willing to take out food. If we knew that, who would move the sword?
In order to solve the problem of food and forage, it was very common for the ancient army to plunder the people of the enemy country. Even when the army beat rabbits and plundered the people of our country, the court would turn a blind eye.
But Liu Ye doesn't allow it.
Since the founding of the army, Liu Ye has provided good food and drink to his subordinates. He even gave all the salaries given by the imperial court to his subordinates and set an example.
Once upon a time, some yellow turban bandits robbed the common people from good soldiers. Liu Ye saw that, without saying a word, he beat a hundred lashes with a black face. Since then, few soldiers have dared to rob the people.
"The general is really wise. As long as the soldiers protect the common people, the people will naturally love Wang Shi and welcome them with food and drink. In this way, can we worry about the shortage of food and grass?" Jia Xu praised him, but this time it was not flattery, but he admired Liu Ye's strict military management.
In fact, it's also a fluke. The people in Guanzhong have been bullied by Dong Zhuo for a long time. I'm afraid they will be grateful if they change to another vassal. However, Liu Ye, who is considerate of the people's power, is in charge. An easy job to do was to win the popular support of Dong Zhuo around Luoyang when he rob Luoyang. Liu Ye immediately went to the middle of the province to help the people.
Liu Ye looked at the scene in front of him with emotion: "the people have steelyards in their hearts. If they know who is good to them, they will treat them well. In a word, the former Emperor also has a great responsibility for the chaos of the Yellow scarves, which is harmful to the world."
As soon as this remark was made, Jia Xu, Zhang jaw and others were all shocked and criticized the late emperor. Liu Ye's words were extremely rebellious. However, when you think about it carefully, it has some truth.
Zhang Liao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "the general of chariots and horses is very reasonable. Although Wen Hou is called a flying general, Hu Lu is afraid of him, but the name of the flying general has not much appeal in the minds of the people of Bingzhou."
Zhang Liao went back to Bingzhou with Lv Bu before. Naturally, he was very excited when he returned to his hometown. Moreover, Lv Bu killed Dong Zhuo. How can it be regarded as a harm to the people in Bingzhou?
Lv Bu also has 20000 soldiers and horses. In addition, he has accepted more than 10000 County soldiers in Bingzhou, so he naturally asks for food. For this reason, he naturally asks for food from the people of Bingzhou. However, the attitude of the people in Bingzhou is quite resistant, which makes the work of grain collection not go well, and even makes Lvbu use force to intimidate...
look at the people in Luoyang, they don't need Liu Ye to collect grain They rushed to deliver grain to Liangzhou army. Although Zhang Liao had heard of Liu Ye's title of winning all battles before, he was not so awed.
Win a hundred battles? We LV Wenhou had never lost a battle. Hu people were frightened and swept the Central Plains invincible.
Today, however, Zhang Liao suddenly has some admiration for Liu Ye. How happy it would be to be able to fight under such benevolent and righteous masters? Unfortunately, Zhang Ran was also a loyal man, so he could not betray Wen Hou.
"Soldiers, coming out of the common people, naturally want to protect the interests of the people. Can those who plunder the people still call soldiers? That's a thief
Looking ahead, Liu Ye gave ideological education to his generals: "can you see it? As long as our army pursues the principle of benevolence and righteousness and the common people of the world return to their hearts, even the Huns in the past are not rivals. You must bear in mind. "Liu Ye's so-called way of benevolence and righteousness is naturally not song Xianggong's "half crossing without attacking it", but an open and upright road. Why is Liu Bei still able to create a career in the romance of the Three Kingdoms? If Liu Bei and Cao Cao had slaughtered the city in Xuzhou, it would have been over.
This time, the common people sent 10000 stone grain and grass to the army, which was a great supplement to the army's grain. After all, the population of Yongliang Prefecture was indeed very small. If Liu Ye had not been pursuing the policy of streamlining troops and streamlining administration, but had been like Han Sui, he would have pulled up a hundred thousand troops at random. It is estimated that even if the South Huns went south, they would have to wait in Luoyang and not attack at will.
There was an endless stream of people, and it was only in the evening that the number gradually decreased. Liu Ye led the army to the north for 30 Li, and then set up camp.
The lights are bright in Liu Ye's army tent. He stares at a map hanging in the tent and seems to be thinking about the military strategy.
"General." Jia Xu walked into the account and bowed his hand slightly.
"Wenhe, sit down."
After listening to Liu Ye's words, Jia Xu is not polite and sits on the ground. After a period of investigation, Liu Ye paid more attention to Jia Yu, and he never kept anything secret. Moreover, he often gave Jia Xu a reward for his family. Therefore, Jia Yu could be regarded as a homecoming to this great uncle of the Han Dynasty.
"Tell me how to fight this battle."
