I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 243 Psychological Warfare with Qingzhou Yellow Turban

Zhang Rang could understand the meaning of Liu Jian's words.

This is indeed something Dong Zhuo can do.

Dong Zhuo in this period is different from the history. He replaced He Jin and the eunuch forces, and started a new round of competition with the rich and powerful.

Now Dong Zhuo has a heavy army in his hands and is powerful in the Sili, but he still tries his best to label himself as a loyal minister, so he can't move the emperor and Queen Mother He.

But the relationship between Dong Zhuo, who is from Liangzhou, and the royal family is not very strong after all, and the best way to strengthen the royal family and himself is nothing more than marriage.

It's really flattering to give the emperor the feeling of being a father-in-law.

And once this matter is done, he will become a real relative in name.

Although the idea is very good, the gentry in the world have already started to arrange for the matter of the emperor's harem.

Liu Bian's Empress Tang has become a thorn in Dong Zhuo's side.

This noble lady from the Tang family in Yingchuan is really impeccable in terms of identity.

If Dong Zhuo took her back to Luoyang and abolished her, I am afraid that the court officials would not agree.

Moreover, Dong Zhuo really couldn't find a suitable reason to abolish the queen, and then install a woman from his own clan as the queen, which is definitely unreasonable.

And it will also cause conflicts between Dong Zhuo, the emperor, and the queen mother.

Ever since, after learning from the pain, Dong Zhuo directly adopted the strategy of drawing salary from the bottom.

He sent someone to tell Liu Jian to ask Uncle Liu Huang not to send the woman from the Tang family back to Luoyang, but to go directly to Yecheng with King Chen Liu.

After all, Luoyang is too chaotic and unsafe, and it is not conducive to the healthy growth of the little girl.

Even Liu Jian couldn't help but praise Dong Zhuo's skill.

This was not a difficult matter for him, as long as he brought Empress Tang back to Yecheng, Dong Zhuo would immediately place the women of his clan by Liu Bian's side.

At that time, no one will take into account what Liu Jian did.

At that time, who will be the legitimate queen?This is basically a trip into muddy waters.

Anyway, Dong Zhuo definitely said that the daughter of his family is a legitimate queen.

And the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely emphasize that Empress Xiao Tang is the real empress.

The two sides can tear each other up.

But no matter how hard he tried, Dong Zhuo's goal was still achieved.

Liu Jian had a hunch, although Dong Zhuo's effort would be much more laborious than when he ruled the world in history.

But his behavior is tantamount to the best for the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, such Dong Zhuo would not be defeated so easily.

In order to maintain the current character design, Dong Zhuo will not burn Luoyang again.

He will only desperately fight against the aristocratic family and weaken the opponent's strength.

The two sides are evenly matched, which is the best result for Liu Jian.

Liu Jin is also an old fritter, and he is no less sassy than Liu Jian in this regard.

He knew very well what Liu Jian wanted to do, and he also knew very well what Dong Zhuo wanted to do.

Therefore, Zhang Rang, the father of the great eunuch who was most relied on by the late emperor Liu Hong, turned into the eunuch Liu Jin, and was used and driven by Liu Jian from then on.

.........

On the other hand, the leaders of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou once again launched a new round of fierce offensive against the noble families in the counties of Qingzhou.

In fact, when the commanders of the Yellow Turbans saw Liu Jian's army coming to the border of Qingzhou, they were still a little scared in their hearts.

It's not that Liu Jian's army is so powerful, it's that Liu Jian's reputation is too loud.

Perhaps even Liu Jian himself didn't realize it a little bit, and now he has become a famous player in the world.

No matter how many Yellow Turbans there are in Qingzhou, which of the leaders of their various canals dares to claim to be able to compare with Zhang Jiao?
Zhang Jiao had already been dealt with by Liu Jian. Among the generous and small Fang Qushuai of the Qingzhou Army, which one of them would dare to confront Liu Jian head-on?
It is said that it is the army of Qingzhou, which is known as a million, but in fact, there are less than one out of ten who can really fight against the Jizhou army as regular soldiers.

Therefore, when Liu Jian first arrived in Qingzhou, the big and small Fang Qu commanders did not let their soldiers continue to wreak havoc in Qingzhou.

Instead, they stationed their troops and horses in dangerous places, united secretly, and were ready to deal with Liu Jian's attack at any time.

But after waiting for a long time, Liu Jian did not find any action.

The opponent is only stationed in Licheng.

Now, the hearts of the commanders of the Qingzhou Army began to agitate again.

This Liu Jian doesn't seem so scary.

They also started a plan to rob Wubao, a prominent family in Qingzhou, for food and armaments.

After all, the Qingzhou Army has millions of people, a large number of people, and the daily consumption is very huge.

Although they will also rob civilians, the amount of resources they get there is simply not enough for them to raise troops to maintain.

Especially for the current Yellow Turban Army, the most ordinary people are their most powerful source of troops.

Qu Shuai and the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army have also opened their heads.

The consequences and sweetness caused by the public opinion of "the sky makes up for the average" made them understand a truth.

That is, if the Yellow Turban Army wants to continue to develop, it must establish its own basic group of people.

And this basic group is undoubtedly those poor people.

Therefore, the current Yellow Turban Army will not easily attack the poor.

They also hope that more poor people can join them to continue to grow their team.

If Liu Jian didn't do anything, the Yellow Turban Army's heart became wild, and they wanted to beat the landlord and grab the rich.

Qu Shuai, some of the Yellow Turban Army, began to question Liu Jian's ability and reputation.

After all, Liu Jian is really too young.

He has indeed made a lot of achievements over the years, especially in the military field, Liu Jian has become a famous general.

But will this famous general have some moisture?

Think about it carefully, in the battle of Xianbei, Lu Zhi was covering him.

In the battle of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Huang Fusong and Dong Zhuo covered him.

Some time ago, during the pacification of Jizhou, it was also heard that many local families supported Liu Jian.

In the Battle of Luoyang, Liu Jian won a few small victories, but he never had a direct confrontation with the Xiliang Army.

What people are most afraid of is blind analysis.

After some blind analysis by the Yellow Turban Army, everyone found that Liu Jian was actually a useless wimp.

If he wasn't a wimp, he would have been beaten up long ago. What is he still doing in Licheng?
Ever since, Qu Shuai, many of the Yellow Turban Army, did not know the heights of the sky and the earth, and began to eagerly try.

They even had the idea of ​​leading troops to directly attack Liu Jian in Licheng.

Fortunately, Sima Ju and Xu He, the two generous commanders of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, are both sensible people.

It is absolutely impossible to go directly to Licheng to attack Liu Jian.

However, since Liu Jian had no intention of sending troops to attack them.

It seems that the wealthy and prominent families who continue to rob the counties of Qingzhou don't care.

So, after a brief pause, the Yellow Turban Army once again launched a fierce offensive against the prominent families in various counties.

Qi, Le'an, and the famous families from all over Beihai finally couldn't hold on anymore.

The imperial court simply turned a blind eye to Liu Jian's behavior of standing still.

The people in charge of Qingzhou County Prefect were either sucked away by the Yellow Turban Army, or they were maimed by them.

Even now, they still have the strength to fight against the Yellow Turban, but in the end, the loss is too great.

Now the famous families in Qingzhou everywhere have basically been consumed by the Yellow Turban Army for most of their strength.

In the end, in desperation.

Headed by the four prefects of Tian, ​​Sun, Zhong, and Feng in Qingzhou, seventeen big families came to express their favor to Liu Jian again and asked him to send troops for help.

Liu Jian is very specific in his actions.

The last request he made to the Qingzhou noble family was money, food, and weapons.

So this time is no exception.

The conditions have not changed at all, but this time the Qingzhou Big Four will not bargain.

They also lost the ability to bargain with Liu Jian now.

Liu Jian agreed to all requests.

But right now, all the prominent families in Qingzhou hide their wealth in the hinterland of Qingzhou.

Therefore, Liu Jian had to wait for Liu Jian to open the gate to the hinterland of Qingzhou before the supplies of the famous family could arrive in his army one after another.

This is actually a test set by the famous family for Liu Jian.

It's not that Liu Jian can't even open the gate to Qingzhou, so how can he protect them?
How can we talk about defeating the Yellow Turban Army?

It is naturally impossible for their supplies to be handed over to such a person.

But since Liu Jian got their promise, he will naturally start to act.

Ever since, Liu Jian began to display his plan.

In order to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Jian has planned for many days and conducted deduction with a group of generals under him.

The examiner who accompanied the army reminded Liu Jian that although the Yellow Turbans were a mob, they were too many after all.

Huge strength wins skill, although Liu Jian's soldiers and horses are all elite, but if he is accidentally distracted by the Yellow Turban Army, he will still suffer a major blow.

Liu Jian agreed with the statement of trial and allocation.

After all, Bao Xin, Liu Dai and other Mushou in many places in history suffered a major blow when they crusaded against Heishan and Qingzhou Yellow Turban.

Therefore, the trial match made several strategies for Liu Jian.

The first is to garrison in Licheng, showing his hesitation to the Yellow Turban Army, and using this to confuse the Yellow Turban Army.

It is not terrible to make the other party feel that they seem to have no strength.

Then spread rumors, saying that Liu Jian has a large amount of goods and food in Licheng, and then shows the Yellow Turbans in a loose state, which will attract some of the Yellow Turbans who do not have a high military level and culture. Lead the troops to attack.

This method will definitely not work for the generals and lieutenants who are tall or have a lot of experience in battle.

But it is true that a large part of the Yellow Turban Army's Shuai Qu was born at the bottom, with a relatively low level of education, short-sightedness, relatively irritable personality, and eager to make meritorious service.

Liu Jian believed that it would definitely not be difficult to attract some of these people, and then take a defensive battle to defeat them.

The two armies are at war, and the first battle is very important.

If the first battle is won, the morale will be high, and the soldiers of the armed forces will be full of confidence.

On the contrary, if the first battle is lost, the soldiers of the three armies will also express more doubts about this battle, and will not have confidence in their own combat power.

In the case of a large number of enemies, using the city to hold on is naturally the best way to win.
