Chapter 298
"Using power for personal gain?" Liu Jin was even more confused. Huangfu Song was seeking personal gain. He didn't see it.
"Prince, General Huangfu Song's hometown is the nearby Anding County, and General Huangfu was also the prefect of Beidi County. Huangfu Gui, one of the 'Liangzhou Sanming', is General Huangfu's uncle, so General Huangfu wants to replace him first. Clean up the chaos in my hometown." Li Ru explained with a smile.
Liu Jin suddenly realized that no wonder Huangfu Song was inconsistent in his words and deeds. It turned out that he was upset.
However, human nature.
Leading troops out to suppress the rebellion, the hometown is next door, if you don't have any ideas, then you are cold-blooded.
Huangfusong has been able to bear it until now, which can be regarded as loyal to the emperor and the country.
If you really want to use power for personal gain, you will go straight to Anding in Sili.
Besides, Huangfu ruled over Liangzhou, but the Dinghai Shenzhen of Anding County, Huangfusong couldn't live up to the expectations of the elders in his hometown.
"Liangzhou Sanming" means: Huangfu Gui, styled Weiming; Zhang Huan, styled Ranming; Duan Jiong, styled Jiming.
These three men had outstanding achievements in the war against the Qiang people. Those Qiang Hus who fought with their heads held their heads like a mouse, had a high reputation among the Qiang people, and it can be regarded as an era of coercion.
It's a pity that Duan Jiong didn't know what kind of considerations he had, so he completely fell for the eunuch's power, which made it impossible for him to be safe at the end of the day. If he wanted to live, Liu Jin would not be the first to spare him.
"General Huangfu, you're dishonest." Liu Jin looked at Huangfusong with a half-smile, and asked if there was something serious, so he couldn't just say it directly, he had to go around in circles.
Huangfusong was even more embarrassed. After all, he was now the commander-in-chief of the army in name, not to mention ruthless, at least he should be fair and just, and treat everyone equally.
But, the crown prince made a move, and the outcome has been decided. On the premise of not affecting the overall situation, you can still give priority to your hometown.
It's a pity that if the little thought is broken, and it is still in front of the prince, then the nature of this will change. If it is serious, it will be regarded as the crime of deceiving the emperor.
"Prince, I know that I am wrong, and I ask the prince to surrender." Huangfusong was ashamed and admitted his mistake decisively. After all, it is indeed a big taboo for a handsome man to distinguish between public and private.
"It's okay, it's just a trivial matter. If General Huangfu can remain indifferent to a disaster in his hometown, then I will doubt your loyalty to the big man." Liu Jin waved his hand indifferently.
"Thank you, Prince, for your understanding." Huangfusong heaved a sigh of relief, but he was filled with guilt for those elders in his hometown.
Liu Jin frowned and pondered. What Huangfusong said was reasonable. Every day there was more chaos in the local area, the people's sense of belonging to the big man would decrease by one point.
This is also the reason why the Qiang people rebelled, but many Han people also joined them, either for self-protection or for their own interests. In the final analysis, they still did not trust the big Han.
Has Luoyang rebelled, yes, but have the people of Luoyang rebelled, no.
One is at the feet of the emperor, the sense of belonging is overwhelming.
Second, the capital was an important place with strong soldiers and horses. They knew that the rebellion would definitely fail.
Therefore, to deal with the rebels, we should sweep away the fallen leaves and kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys.
The same is true for local chaos. The longer it is delayed, the more troublesome it will be to manage it.
Liu Jin looked at the map and thought quietly. Both Anding County and Beidi County are sparsely populated, and the distribution of personnel is extremely uneven.
Most of the county towns in Anding County are gathered in the south, and there is only one in the north.
Beidi County is even more exaggerated. There are only six counties in the whole county.
There are three in the south and three in the north. The middle is either a mountainous area or a desert, and the three counties in the north are already near the Great Wall and around Helan Mountain.
Therefore, the counties in these two counties that have been controlled by the rebels are actually only the four counties in the north near the Yellow River.
The other county towns were at most following suit. With Huangfusong's prestige in Anding County and Beidi County, it was very easy to clean up.
It is even possible that as soon as the army arrives, the county town in the south will put the swords and guns into the warehouse directly, and the horses will be sent to Nanshan.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's divide the troops." Now that Liu Jin has made up his mind, he doesn't hesitate anymore. They now have a total strength of [-] troops, and there are still a group of killing god guards, so there is no pressure to divide the troops.
Hearing Liu Jin's words, Huangfusong was overjoyed, and hurriedly cupped his hands to thank:
"Thank you, Prince, for your success!"
"Zhongkang, you lead the tiger cavalry, follow General Huangfu, and wait for orders; Gongtai, you continue to obey orders under General Huangfu."
Liu Jin arranged two generals for Huangfusong, just in case of accidents, and added [-] troops.
Another one arrived at the grassland in the north, and he would definitely face the cavalry of the rebels. Xu Chu followed, just in time to hone the combat power of the tiger cavalry, and strengthen the team by the way. When the equipment is in place, it can be formed directly.
"Yes, my lord." Xu Chu and Sun Jian accepted the order.
"Thank you, Prince." Huangfusong was overjoyed again, he will have the courage to serve as a soldier, with Sun Jian and Xu Chu following him, the counter-rebellion will be smoother.
"As for other counties, we will decide according to the situation when we get to the Ji County Governor's Department." Liu Jin made no further arrangements. He would have to pass by Ji County anyway, and we will decide when we get there.
"Yes, my lord." Everyone had no objection.
"By the way, Nan Rong, I'll give this to you. After you stabilize, you can arrange it yourself." Liu Jin said as he said, he took out the map of the gold mine and threw it to Fu Xie.
Fu Xie took the map in a daze, opened it for a closer look, and laughed all the time, no matter how much money it has, as long as it is money, Liangzhou has gone through this turmoil, and there are more places that need money.
"Thank you, my lord, I will definitely arrange it properly." Fu Xie looked grateful, his lord was really generous, and he would give [-] million without any hesitation.
After the discussion, everyone went their separate ways.
The next day, the army parted ways, Huangfusong led the troops northward, and Liu Jin led the rest of the troops to continue westward.
After leaving Long County, within two days, the army entered a grassland area.
On this grassland, the terrain is flat and vast, with slight undulations in the distance. The whole land is covered by green grass, and there are some colorful flowers dotted on the grass.
When he got here, Li Ru reminded Liu Jin to prevent Qiang Hu from being harassed.
Qiang Hu is good at riding and shooting, and he is proficient in guerrilla warfare.
Relying on the might of Liangzhou's horses, they come and go like the wind, running rampant across the world.
Facing weak enemies, just swarm them and eat them.
In the face of powerful enemies, they always walk on the edge, never confronting each other head-on, and finally consume the enemy to death.
Liu Jin did not comment on Li Ru's words. He had only scratched the surface of guerrilla warfare and was far from being invincible at the top.
However, the alert still has to be alert, so as not to be caught off guard.
After walking for another half day, Liu Jin suddenly stretched out his hand and shouted to stop.
"The enemy is coming!" Liu Jin looked into the distance, and he already felt the vibration coming from that direction.
What puzzled Liu Jin was that the number of opponents did not seem to be many, and the speed was a bit ridiculous.
After hearing Liu Jin's words, Zhao Yun directly sent an order, and the army immediately unsheathed their swords, unstringed their bows and arrows, and mounted their cavalry, ready for battle at any time.
