Xiaoguangong

Chapter 291 I advise you to leave a way out
Xiahoudun's appreciation of Yunshan was not hypocritical, and Guan Ping was praised by Xiahoudun, and he also actively put his subjective initiative into the battle, mobilizing the people in Guanzhong to prepare for the war again.

"This is the last battle. This battle will bring about a hundred years of peace in Guanzhong. You and your children and grandchildren will never be bullied by iron hooves again. I, Yunshan, swear that this time we will completely expel the bandits from Liangzhou and restore my majesty." !"

Yunshan placed the recruiting site in Huaili, where Ma Teng was once stationed. He raised the banner, and soon a large number of people responded. The self-cultivating farmers brought their own food, the blacksmith picked up the weapons he made, and the merchants helped the elderly. Food, grass and cloth are provided for free with young children.

The entire Guanzhong was full of fighting spirit from top to bottom, which made Guo Huai sigh even more.

He remembered that many years ago he came to Guanzhong for business. At that time, except for Chang'an, every household in the markets and villages and towns around Guanzhong was closed during the day, and the occasional pedestrians who came and went quickly ran away to hide.

But this time is different.

The people who fled before all returned to their homes, and took the initiative to go to various places to tell the good news of Yunshan’s return. The previously deserted villages were full of cooking smoke, and many people even set up iron pots to cook delicious mutton. Sprinkle the fine salt like snow, and the aroma of mutton made Guo Huai, who was born in a wealthy family, couldn't help moving his index finger and drooling in disappointment.

He quickly lowered his head and wiped his saliva, and couldn't help but think about how Yunshan managed to win such popular support.

The transmission of news in this era is very poor. Many places in Guanzhong have become sparsely populated after more than ten years of destruction. Yunshan only stayed in Guanzhong for a while before, how could he spread the news so far so quickly? Many people from far away came to join the army, just like...

Just like the Taiping Road back then.

Back then, the Taiping Dao was forced to revolt early because of the betrayal of the traitors. Even so, they quickly spread the news of the uprising to all directions. Millions of Taiping Dao members wrapped up yellow scarves and joined the battle at the same time, shaking the foundation of the great man.

Could it be that this cloud mountain is the old one of the Taiping Dao, does it have any special magical ability?

He was still thinking about what was going on, only to hear Xu Huang next to him sigh:
"This is the militia..."

Guan Ping saw many familiar faces among the turbulent crowd. These people were young, or vicissitudes, or had tears in their eyes, or were high-spirited, but they were all elite militiamen he had mobilized and trained before.

According to the previous thinking, Guan Ping selected the elite from the main force to enter the local army for preparation training, and the local army also selected outstanding soldiers to become militias, slowly expanding the combat power at the grassroots level.

Ding Fei was very dissatisfied with the existence of the militia after he took control of the military forces in Guanzhong. He couldn't reach into Guanping's main force for a while, but he could seriously interfere with the operation of the local army and militia, preventing them from expanding and recruiting soldiers. Can be forced to enter the farmland and endure the exploitation of Cao Jun.

If it was just an ordinary militia, the whole army might have dispersed after losing Yunshan's command.

But those who joined the militia were loyal fighters who followed Yunshan all the way. Although they were scattered to farm, they were still the mainstay in the hearts of all militiamen.These soldiers encouraged the fighting spirit of the militiamen, telling them that Yunshan would return to Guanzhong sooner or later, and he would never give up on them.

These simple people believed in the way of peace many years ago, and now they have more realistic and immediate goals, and they have always kept their hopes in mind. Encouraged by Bingtou, they patiently and conscientiously learned to read and waited for the opportunity of Yunshan's return. .

After Ding Fei left Guanzhong, Chang Diao also reinstated the militiamen under Xu Shu's suggestion. As soon as the news of Yunshan's return came, these militiamen immediately passed the news to the Quartet.

Those people who were forced to farm were oppressed before, and they heard people say that General Yunshan could free them and return Guanzhong to peace.

The leaders of these militiamen did not have strict military positions, but they played a huge role that other captains and village chiefs could not play. They kept inspiring the fighting spirit of the people on the way to Huaili. They came here one after another, it was really a miracle!
Cao's army was originally based on the Yellow Turban surrenders in Qingzhou and Xuzhou. Most of the others were forced to join the army. When they were sent to the front line, there must be an escort to prevent soldiers from escaping.

This kind of soldier... how can he be compared with this strong army that everyone is eager to swallow Ma Chao?

Guo Huai was excited, and wanted to learn Yunshan's skills well, so that he could learn from Yunshan when he commanded a party in the future, and train an army that is also good at fighting.

But when he thought about it for a moment, he felt a little lost again.

Yunshan’s use of such a method had already aroused the dissatisfaction of the king of Wei. He had the opportunity to dispatch at will because he was good at fighting and won the hearts of the people. If someone else promoted such a benevolent government, he would soon attract Wei Wang's attention, school affairs are about to visit.

"The general is not afraid of being..." Even though he knew it was impolite to say this, Guo Huai couldn't help but blurted out and performed a decapitation.

Guan Ping smiled cheerfully:
"What do I have to be afraid of? The world has been in chaos for decades, and what I'm doing now is trying my best to put things right.

Brother Guo came from a famous family, so he should also know that my Han sergeant was also able to read and write.

At that time, all the discussions in the Great Han Dynasty were how to send troops from the Western Regions to further places, go to the overseas Great Qin to see the reality, or invite Yingnan Yue to open up the frontier for our dynasty.

I just want the big man from back then to come back. Could it be that there is something taboo about this? "

Guo Huai shook his head and said worriedly:

"The general has great ambitions, Guo Huai admires it, but how can everything in this world go as the general expected?
The general is dedicated to the great man, and he had aroused Wei Wang's suspicion because he refused to bow his head to Wei Wang before.

Now that there is chaos in Guanzhong, the king of Wei needs the general, but if Yongliang is pacified in a few years, the general, the Yongzhou shepherd, and General Xu, the Liangzhou shepherd, may not be easy to do.

In particular, the king of Wei is determined to usurp the Han. When the time comes, does the general want to be a Han minister or a Wei minister? "

Guan Ping was quite surprised, he didn't expect Guo Huai to speak so thoroughly.

It stands to reason that Guo Huai's family background should put his own family's interests as the absolute priority, but now he actually shows a bit... a bit of a gesture of getting closer to himself.

"General, there are only you and me here, so I'll just say it clearly." Guo Huai looked at the people in front of him and said leisurely, "The general is kind-hearted and wholeheartedly for the Han, but Cao Zihuan is definitely not a person who cherishes the power of the people. General and this person There is no poetry or prose, but he was loved by Cao Zihuan for a while. After a few years, the world will be pacified, and the general will eventually resign for some reason, and he will inevitably be depressed for a lifetime.

After all, the benevolent government of the general has to be...hehe, it can't be done after all. "

Under the feudal small-scale peasant economy, there were already considerable contradictions in the system of self-cultivating farmers and farming.

Guan Ping's actions in Guanzhong were all based on violations of Cao Pi's laws. Even if Cao Pi could tolerate it for a while, he would eventually feel unhappy when the world was settled.

What Guo Huai said made sense.

"Then what Boji taught me?" Guan Ping asked calmly with a slightly cold expression.

Guo Huai said boldly: "The general thought that when the general attacked Hanzhong, it would be better to make friends with Liu Bei quietly as a way out. If Cao Zihuan treats the general well in the future, then that's all. Liu Bei attacked the Central Plains eastward from Guanzhong, Cao Zihuan was caught off guard, how could he resist?!"

Guan Ping was stunned, looking at Guo Huai's excited face, it took him a long time to believe that he was not acting strange, but really trying to persuade himself to join Liu Bei.

Well, if he knows that I am Guan Yunchang's son, he doesn't know what expression he should make...

Guan Ping shook his head and sighed:
"Liu Xuande's ambition is in the Yikuang Han Dynasty. If he doesn't get rid of him, the King of Wei may not harm me. If he goes to the Northern Shu Expedition, if I stop him, it will definitely be a big battle. I don't know what Boji thinks should be done?"

Guo Huai sneered and said:
"The General, General Xu, and General Le are all state shepherds, only slightly weaker than King Wei, and can be called princes along the way.

If Liu Bei's Northern Expedition, the generals are better off talking to each other. If Liu Bei is willing to crack the ground and reward the generals, why not the generals attack the Cao family together with Generals Xu and General Le, then the great man will prosper and the world will be settled? "

Guan Ping nodded slowly and said with a smile:
"Why is Boji so concerned about the general?"

"To be honest, my ancestors have been Han ministers for generations, and the emperor of Han has treated my family well. King Wei's move... I am a little bit dissatisfied."

Guo Huai's words are definitely not false.

His family has been a wealthy family for generations, and their status is no worse than that of the Cao family. Why can their Cao family soar to the sky, and even start to covet the position of the emperor.

If Cao Cao was here before, Guo Huai would never have dared to think about it, but after Cao Pi became the king of Wei, he kept suppressing his family. Their family is very weak. Now the guards in Jingzhou, Yongzhou, and Liangzhou are all outsiders. Why do you have to bow your head to your family?

When Guo Huai saw that the people supported Yunshan so much, he had already started to think about it. If he could join the team of the Kuangfu Han family, the reputation of the Guo family in the history books would skyrocket, and he would pay homage to future generations. will benefit immensely.

Anyway, Cao Pi is not a wise master. Sooner or later, the great cause of the Cao family will be finished. At this time, it should not be too late to help the Han Dynasty.

Seeing Guo Huai's hot face, Guan Ping smacked his lips and said with a smile:
"What Boji said was that I would trust Boji."

He really wanted to tell Guo Huai his identity and appreciate the surprised expression on Guo Huai's face, but after much deliberation, he still kept this thought in his heart.

Guo Huai saw that Yunshan smiled very restrainedly but looked expectant, and couldn't help but cheer up and said:
"General, don't worry. Speaking of which, although I have no friendship with Liu Bei, my father and family ancestors both served in Hedong, and my father was also a county magistrate in Xie County, so we have some connections with Guan Yunchang's family.

In the future, I will go to Guan Yun's stronghold, tell the origin of this story rather than know it, and recommend it to the general, so that any old grievances in the past will naturally be wiped out. "

"Don't worry, General."

Guan Ping: ...

"Then, I'll leave it all to Boji."
