I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 497
Yu Fuluo's death surprised all the officials and members of the big clan in Bingzhou, even the court in Guanzhong.

It's not that Liu Jian can't pacify the scourge in Bingzhou, it's just that in such a short period of time, the Baibo army, Yu Fuluo and other bandits who harassed the northern border were quickly wiped out. The speed is really astonishing!
Throughout the Eastern Han Dynasty since its establishment, it seems that no one can compare with Liu Jian.

Liu Bian's side had just issued the decree of farming and minting new money in the imperial court, and Liu Jian sent people to the imperial court with the battle report of the extermination of Yu Fuluo.

This time, Liu Bian couldn't hold back anymore.

He hurried to Dong Zhuo to discuss the matter again.

Dong Zhuo was somewhat anxious, so he negotiated with Liu Bian to let Liu Bian be in charge first, and then lead his troops out of Liangzhou!

However, what Liu Bian meant was that even if he is in charge right now, it may not be an easy task for him to make the government orders smooth in the court.

Therefore, Liu Bian still needs Dong Zhuo to assist him in the court.

This is not Liu Bian's hypocrisy, but that he really needs Dong Zhuo now.

Dong Zhuo was very happy when he heard this. Although he knew that Liu Bian used himself to have a high profile, he could make the emperor really rely on him. For Dong Zhuo, this was undoubtedly an achievement.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo decided to choose a strong general from among the Liangzhou generals under his command to go to Liangzhou as an outpost instead of himself, to see how the situation in Liangzhou was, and then decide whether he wanted to go there in person.

In Dong Zhuo's mind, Li Jue or Guo Si were undoubtedly the best candidates.

But Guo Bang refused to go because his toe was shot off by the Hebei army.

Li Jue also suddenly "had a cold," making it difficult for him to travel.

Dong Zhuo is an old man, of course he understands what Li Jue and Guo Si mean.

These two people's official positions are now promoted, and they are not the powerful ones when they fought against him in Liangzhou in the past.

Now I want the two of them to go to Liangzhou to do something for me. There are more difficult military operations in this kind of bitter cold place, so they don't want to go.

However, Dong Zhuo did not force them.

Because Dong Zhuo understands very well that you just forced them to go, if they resist this matter, it might end up being a failure.

The matter between Liangzhou and the Western Regions is very important. Dong Zhuo does not want to cause bad consequences to this matter because the generals are slack. In this way, he will be under great pressure in the court, and it is easy to make the emperor lose confidence.

So Dong Zhuo found another person to handle the matter, that is Hu Zhen.

It's just that he never expected that at such a critical moment, Hu Zhen would not be willing to go.

Dong Zhuo was completely pissed off now.

Unexpectedly, I have been marching for a lifetime, and I have countless elite soldiers and generals under my command, but in the end, no one is willing to go to help me solve problems in major military operations.

Just when Dong Zhuo was sulking because Li Jue, Guo Si and others did not respond to his call, two people approached Dong Zhuo, hoping to go to Liangzhou to handle this matter for Dong Zhuo.

Of these two people, one is Niu Fu and the other is Lu Bu.

After the big defeat in Sizhou last time, Lv Bu and Niu Fu have been a little disliked by Dong Zhuo.

Of course, Dong Zhuo didn't really dislike them, but to appease the suspicion and dissatisfaction of other generals, so he deliberately indifferent to them on the surface.

Now, Niu Fu and Lu Bu were able to stand up to share Dong Zhuo's worries and problems during this low tide period and at the same time, which made Dong Zhuo very satisfied and moved.

However, after all, Niu Fu and Lu Bu had just lost a battle last year and were punished by Dong Zhuo. At this time, if they are to be sent to Liangzhou first, they must be appointed to important positions. The generals of the Liangzhou faction were dissatisfied.

So Dong Zhuo thought of a way.

It happened that Liu Jian had just defeated the Baibo army, and Zhang Baiqi and others of Hongnong lost the aid from the north. It can be said that their morale was low and they were in constant panic. Zhang Baiqi is a good idea.

In this way, Dong Zhuo had an excuse to directly give them two corresponding military and official positions, and assign them to Liangzhou to expand his career for himself.

Regarding this point, Lu Bu was naturally omnipotent, and Niu Fu also took orders.

Seeing this pair of partners, Dong Zhuo was quite satisfied.

Although Niu Fu is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, his ability is really mediocre.

Even if Dong Zhuo wanted to reuse him, he couldn't.

And every time he wanted to give Niu Fu a chance, Dong Zhuo was so angry that he wanted to turn the table over what Niu Fu did.

At the same time, there is absolutely nothing to say about Lu Bu's ability. Looking at the entire Han Dynasty, he is also one of the best flying generals.

However, Lu Bu was the exact opposite of Niu Fu, and Dong Zhuo could not fully trust him.

Moreover, in the past, no general of the Liangzhou faction was willing to cooperate with Lu Bu. As a result, Lu Bu has always been independent of the Liangzhou military system, and Lu Bu was the main general in all affairs of his troops. The use is more scruples.

But this time Niu Fu cooperated with Lu Bu, and Lu Bu was willing to be Niu Fu's lieutenant general, which made Dong Zhuo quite satisfied.

Although Dong Zhuo probably knew in his heart that Lv Bu wanted to take advantage of Niu Fu's way to go up, but this kind of thing was completely under Dong Zhuo's control.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo and Niu Fu were the principals, and Lu Bu was the deputy. The two of them were asked to go to Hongnong first, and use Zhang Baiqi and other bandits to test the cooperation ability of Niu Fu and Lu Bu.

……

On the other hand, Liu Jian wiped out Yu Fuluo, the fleeing prince of the Southern Huns in Bingzhou.

However, the plans against the Southern Huns did not stop there.

Yu Fuluo was just a branch of the Southern Huns who escaped from the Han Dynasty.

But based on Yu Fuluo's incident, Liu Jian wanted to go to the royal court of the Southern Huns to transform the royal court of the Southern Huns into the same way as Wuhuan, and completely merge their people into the Han Dynasty.

However, besides Yu Fuluo, there is still a very powerful force in Bingzhou.

It is the Black Mountain Army.

It's just that the twelve commanders of the Black Mountain Army who had previously opposed joining the imperial court had been killed by Liu Jian and Zhang Yan in secret.

Now the remaining commander of the Black Mountain Army, Qu Shuai, either supports Zhang Yan's willingness to join the court.

Or you can add or not join the imperial court's control, which is a follow-up.

Of course, there are still some people who don't want to join the imperial court, but there are not many of these people left, and they don't have much power in their hands, which is not a particularly big obstacle to the Black Mountain Army.

Therefore, Liu Jian decided to incorporate the Black Mountain Army into his subordinate system during this time period.

After all, Bingzhou needs to be built, and the Black Mountain Army is a major force in building Bingzhou.

Therefore, Liu Jian sent someone to find Zhang Yan to discuss the matter of making him surrender to him.

Zhang Yan already had this intention.

It's not been a year or two since he wanted to join Liu Jian, but Liu Jian just refused to let him.

Sometimes Zhang Yan really wants to take out Liu Jian's villain...

You don't even want to voluntarily surrender, what kind of trouble do you want?

Now that Liu Jian finally invited Zhang Yan to surrender, Zhang Yan has been sleeping with her mouth grinning these days.

I can't even get along with the music.

Therefore, Zhang Yan began to summon a group of major generals under his command to discuss surrendering to Liu Jian.

Over the years, Zhang Yan has done a lot of work within the Black Mountain Army. It is not a secret that he wants to join Liu Jian among some middle-level Black Mountain Army.

In particular, Qu Shuai, who was promoted by Zhang Yan in recent years, was mostly promoted for the surrender of Liu Jian in the future.

All Qu Shuai who agreed to support Zhang Yan's recruitment were entrusted by Zhang Yan bit by bit.

As for those Qu Shuai who disagree with being recruited, if their strength is not strong, then gradually marginalize them and slowly absorb the power in their hands.

If those Qu Shuai who disagree with Zhang Yan's return to Liu Jian are stronger...it doesn't matter, the 12 people have already been taken care of by Liu Jian.

When Zhang Yan announced his surrender to Liu Jian to the middle-level members of the Black Mountain Army, it did not cause any huge uproar.

After all, Zhang Yan has been planning for this matter for a day or two.

Soon, those under Zhang Yan who were most supportive of returning to Liu Jian began to express their opinions one by one.

The opinions expressed by these people are undoubtedly to evaluate Liu Jian from various aspects.

The first is to talk about Liu Jian's benevolence and righteousness.

Then it means that Liu Jian has made many contributions to the Han Dynasty.

And then there is Liu Jian's cultivation of virtue. He promulgated many virtues for the people at the bottom of the Han Dynasty and did a lot of good things. The ordinary Li Shu in Hebei are now living a relatively stable life.

And then, that is to say, Liu Jian is a person who only cares about his talents and does not value family status.

And then……

And then……

In short, no matter what these people say, the final conclusion is that Liu Jian is really a rare hero in the world!
If the Montenegrin Army had taken refuge in him, then everyone from the commander above to the ordinary soldiers below would have a good home, and everyone would not have to worry about living a life of starvation.

Although most of the middle-level cadres of the Black Mountain Army support Liu Jian, so that the soldiers of the three armies can get a good future, but after all, there are too many people in the Black Mountain Army, and there are mixed dragons and snakes among the middle-level people, and some people still voice doubts .

These people said that if Zhang Yan defected to Liu Jian, they would lead the crowd to leave Montenegro.

Regarding the stubbornness of these people, Zhang Yan told them with a smile that they can go where they want to go.

However, when these people really turned around and left the chamber, they were immediately taken down by Zhang Yan's pro-army.

In the end, after some insignificant twists and turns, all the middle and high-level cadres of the Montenegro Army reached an agreement-the Montenegro surrendered to Liu Jian!
In the second year of Xingping, in April of 191 A.D., the Bingzhou Black Mountain Army, which ruled the Taihang Mountains for nearly eight years, was led by their Daqu Commander Zhang Yan and 46 small Qu Shuais to the General of Fuyuan. Liu Jian bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister.

Compared with the suppression of Yufuluo and Baibo bandits, the surrender of the Black Mountain Army to Liu Jian pushed Liu Jian's prestige and reputation to the pinnacle.

That represents the largest population of black households hidden in the Han Dynasty in the Taihang Mountains. There are more than two million people, all of whom have become subjects under Liu Jian's rule.

This achievement can be said to be no small feat.

In the past ten years, I am afraid that no one's achievements in the territory of Dahan are as great as this achievement.

With a population of 200 million, it can even be called the capital of an emperor.

Once the news came out, the world shook!

Not to mention Dong Zhuo, Liu Bian, and other ministers in the imperial court.

Even Yuan Shao, Yuan Yi, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and others far in the south, and even the warlords in Liangzhou, were all shocked by Liu Jian.

This Liu Deran is simply not human.

Is there anything in this world that he can't do?
