During dinner time, Yang Lin and the soldiers carried the plate to the kitchen to receive his dinner. In order to receive the wind for the three great brigades of the Liaodong Union's cavalry, tonight, regardless of whether it was soldiers or soldiers, everyone had a bowl of wine, a bowl of meat, and four steamed buns.
Yang Lin carried his own dinner, and chatted and laughed with the soldiers until he arrived under a big tree, then sat on the ground and started eating. Not long later, Tian Feng, Mu Lun, Guo Tong and the rest came over with trays, and some soldiers even sat down nearby.
"Guo Tong, Huo Lang, you two talk to me, what's the situation in Liaodong Union? How was the establishment of the nomadic unit? "
Yang Lin drank his wine and asked Guo Tong and Huo Lang. Although he was in the Jizhou, Yang Lin still couldn't let the war in the desert go. And the formation of the nomadic unit was not only to conquer the nomadic peoples in the desert, but also to conquer the desert, so that the Han people could truly become the masters of the desert.
"Lord General, after the news of Qiu Liju's demise spread to the desert, the fresh inferior started to become restless, especially the Northern fresh inferior. There are already many tribes going south to fight against the women and sheep that are fighting against the Liaodong Union for the position of tribe's leader. The battles in the desert are very different from the battles in the Central Plains or the Gaoguanli. We don't have a strong city, or a base, or an enemy to go missing. It's like we're playing hide-and-seek on the prairie, looking for a weak spot in the enemy, and then hitting it hard. As we have to protect the nomadic brigade, our forces are quite scattered and it is hard to guard against the invasion from the fresh inferior s. "
"The Wild Wolf Valley nomadic unit formed by our Liaodong Union already has twelve large nomadic teams. Urushion is a nation that worships strong people, they don't dare to resist at all against us burly men's cavalry, furthermore, they have no power to resist. There are many Chinese slaves in the Urushion. They were captured by the Urushion and are now the backbone of our nomadic unit. However, the refugees who have just entered the desert, as well as the captives of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, are not used to the nomadic life in the grasslands.
Guo Tong set down the tableware and started to talk seriously. In order to prevent Yang Lin from being distracted, he had actually spoken less about the fresh inferior's invasion. As the Liaodong Union s that entered the desert had to protect the nomadic herdsmen, their distribution was very wide, and they had to deal with the constant intrusion from the fresh inferior s.
"Rather than passively defending, the Lord General would be better to take the initiative to attack. If he wanted to solve the problem of the desert, the only way was to eliminate the fresh inferior. Whether or not we can conquer the desert is not only about whether or not we can adapt to life in the desert, nor whether or not we can just build a few castles. More importantly, whether or not our cavalry can fight in the desert and destroy these nomadic tribes. "
Yang Lin nodded in appreciation, and revealed a satisfied smile. Guo Tong and Huo Lang had grown from a bandit to a high ranking general not only by relying on strength, but also a strategic vision. It seemed that their decision was right.
"The problem with the fresh inferior will be resolved sooner or later. We can't tolerate a wolf wandering around our doorstep. However, our main problem now is in the Central Plains, so we can only defend against the fresh inferior. Especially since we have just entered the desert, we have yet to get used to it. If we were to roam and fight on top of the desert, we might truly be able to conquer the desert. "
"Lord General, although it is important to pacify Army of Montenegro, we cannot relax on our plan. It is directly related to the stability and prosperity of our Youzhou. With Mr. Zhang Ling's advice, do you still need me and Mr. Hui Dai to advise you? "
Tian Feng listened to Yang Lin and his sister talking while he drank and ate. Seeing that they had stopped, he spoke up. After so many years, it was always Zhang Banxian who followed as her military advisor. He did not understand why Mo Lun and him were brought to the Jizhou.
"Hehe …" I didn't send you here just to pacify the entire Army of Montenegro, but also for the entire Jizhou. "
If it was just to exterminate the Army of Montenegro, Tian Feng would not even need to teach it a lesson. However, Yang Lin had his eyes set on the entire Jizhou. As someone who was familiar with history, he did not want the Jizhou to fall into Yuan Shao's hands, and if he wanted to compete with Yuan Shao for the Jizhou, Tian Feng and Mu Lun were the best candidates.
The Jizhou is different from the Youzhou, the power of the Scholars is very strong. As an outsider, and not a Scholars, and without orders from the imperial government, it was very difficult for Yang Lin to establish a foothold in the Jizhou. As for Tian Feng, he was originally a Scholars of the Jizhou, so he had a very good official voice in the Jizhou. With him controlling the Jizhou, the Scholars would quickly recognize him.
"Ah …" For the entire Jizhou? "
Not only were Tian Feng and the others shocked, the Generals s were also baffled as they looked at Yang Lin in shock. They had come to the Jizhou only to eliminate the Army of Montenegro, and the Jizhou was not just Fu Yu, Triple Korea, or Gaoguanli. Could it be that after calming down the Army of Montenegro, the Lord General would still want to occupy the Jizhou?
"You may not know this, but this time we are going south, to help the imperial government kill Jian Shuo, and stabilize the situation. But who would have thought that the Grand General Ho Jin, who held great authority in his hands, would actually seek revenge and force the death of both the hussar general and his mother, the Queen Dong! By doing so, he will soon lose the will of the people and cause public outrage, resulting in great chaos. "
History stubbornly repeated itself, making Yang Lin very uncomfortable. Yang Lin could understand why He Jin wanted to get rid of him, but it was difficult for Yang Lin to accept that he had been forced to death. Whether it was a fight on the battlefield or a fight in the imperial court, women should not be dragged into this mess!
"The world is in chaos, but we must do our best to protect one side. We came to the Jizhou this time to pacify them, and we came under the imperial edict. Furthermore, all the food, equipment, equipment and military pay that our army needs will be provided by the Jizhou. Therefore, not only do we have to pacify the Army of Montenegro, we also have to ensure the stability of the Jizhou and our supply. "
In front of so many soldiers, Yang Lin would never reveal his thoughts of wanting to dominate the Jizhou, he just had to find a dignified reason. It was precisely because of Empress Dowager He's stinginess that he gave Yang Lin a good excuse. He could take the imperial edict and gather the military expenditures from all the Countryside s.
"Jizhou was originally a granary of the world, but because of the corrupt officials running rampant, thieves and robbers appeared everywhere, and the citizens were displaced. While pacifying the Army of Montenegro, we must also protect the citizens of the Jizhou. This time, I have transferred you to the Jizhou because you are all from there, and are familiar with the Army of Montenegro, so this time, the Jizhou Almighty is handled by Tian Feng, Mu Hui, Guo Tong and Huo Lang. At the same time, I shall use Tian Feng and Mister Mo Lun's prestige to contact the Scholars to ensure the stability of the Jizhou. "
"Lord General, the Jizhou has a million people, moving unhindered within the valleys of the Five Elements Mountain Range. Furthermore, the villagers hate the government and have the heart to rebel. If she wanted to stabilize the Army of Montenegro, he probably wouldn't succeed until three to five years had passed. The northern troop of the imperial government had been annihilated for many years, so they had no choice but to give the leader of the Army of Montenegro, Zhang Yan, the hard nut to crack. Now that the Lord General has accepted this heavy responsibility so hastily, if it is delayed too long, the Imperial Court will probably blame the Lord General. "
Tian Feng was right, the Army of Montenegro was not that easy to deal with.
Black Mountain was located at the southern end of the Five Elements Mountain Range. The mountain peaks were overlapping, and the elevation of the mountain range was above 2000 meters. To the east of the mountain range was the Jizhou Plains, to the west was the Union State Plateau, and to the south was the Hanoi County. The channels from Jizhou to Union State were mostly distributed between the Five Elements Mountain Range, which provided a convenient condition for the various ministries in Army of Montenegro to communicate with each other and coordinate strategically.
At almost the same time that the yellow cloth rose up, the main leaders of Army of Montenegro, Zhang Niu Jiao and Zhang Yan had already gathered together. It was just that the scale was small, and did not attract any attention from the imperial government. Just as Yang Lin calmed the yellow cloth and brought the County soldier away, the Army of Montenegro quickly grew stronger. And now, the Army of Montenegro had gathered hundreds of thousands of people and had almost controlled the Jizhou's Zhongshan, Changshan, State of Zhao, and other countries.
Even though the historical Yuan Shao controlled the Jizhou, he had never been able to pacify it. It was because of Yuan Shao's battle with Army of Montenegro and Gongsun Zan that Yuan Shao was unable to care about Cao Cao's rise to power south of the Yellow River, and he lost to Cao Cao in the end.
"We cannot pacify Army of Montenegro, it cannot be as bloodthirsty as pacifying as Pinglang, Triple Korea, and Gaoguanli. After all, Army of Montenegro is a man of us and our people. We have to adopt a method that combines military encirclement and political offensives. On one hand, we have to press our troops down, and on the other hand, we have to strive for the survival of the Army of Montenegro. On the other hand, we have to fight for the hearts of the people, dissolve into pieces, and defeat the Army of Montenegro one by one. "
The Army of Montenegro was not made of steel, but was divided into thirty different sized groups. Among them, there were thirty thousand people in the big group and seven to eight thousand in the small group. Although Zhang Yan was promoted to be the great leader of the Army of Montenegro, he was still unable to command the other Army of Montenegro.
"As for your worries about the blame from the imperial government, that is even less necessary. With He Jin's way of doing things, the imperial government would be in chaos in less than three to five months. "By that time, even if you want the imperial government to blame you, I'm afraid you won't be able to find where the imperial government has gone to?"
"Ah …" Lord General, what will happen to you? "
Everyone was shocked, and Tian Feng was even more dumbstruck. In the history of the Han Dynasty, the dictatorship of the outside world often happened, and even Wang Mang usurped the country. However, Scholars disciples like them, who had received a classical Confucian education since they were young, could not accept this result no matter what.
"No matter how the court changes, we just concentrate on our own affairs. As long as it's something that's beneficial to the Han nationality and the big sized man, we will do it.
From now on, Yang Lin would imbue them with his own ideas. His goal was to become a Han nationality, for the common man, and not for a family with the same surname. In the long river of history, change of dynasty would often happen, but the Han nationality would always exist!
Zhang Banxian strolled along the streets of Luoyang. She was extremely depressed, with a thick layer of frost on her face. He listlessly looked at the shops on both sides of the street, silently watching the people on the street hurrying past, her mind at a loss.
"Military Advisor, the death of Queen Dong has nothing to do with us, you better not torture yourself. It was all done by the Grand General Ho Jin, so even the ministers did not say a word, so there is no reason for us to blame ourselves. "
Fei Hong and Liang Ming, who were following beside Zhang Banxian, obviously knew why she was unhappy. However, they could not understand why Zhang Banxian would feel guilty. Killing Jian Shuo was a righteous act that protected the stability of the imperial government, so they had nothing to regret.
"The most ruthless is the imperial family of Wuqing …"
