It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 123
The noble families in Cochin are different from the aristocratic families in the Central Plains.

If we divide the wealthy families a little bit, they can be divided into three categories.

For one thing, the ordinary wealthy clans were simply powerful landlords who belonged to clan forces in a group with a large number of people and a lot of land.

The second is that the business-type wealthy family has a large number of people and land, and has been doing business for generations and has money.

Three, the gentry-type aristocratic family, on the basis of a large number of people and land, has been an official for generations and has connections.

In the case of the aristocratic family, it is the evolution of the wealthy family. After all types of wealthy families are integrated, they conduct diversified operations, and they are quite famous, and they are the prestige of a county.

Although Chen Fujia was born in a family, he has no psychological burden at all to suppress the wealthy family.

What is your rich family, rustic, how can it be compared with the aristocratic family?
Besides, this is Jiaozhi, a small country in Fanbang.

My Central Plains aristocratic family, who cares whether your wealthy family in Fanbang is alive or dead?

"Your Majesty's action really directly reversed the situation."

Chen Fujia even felt that it was more superior to attacking the rich and distributing the land to the refugees than his method of encircling reinforcements and defeating Zhang Yiping's main army.

His method, of course, can wipe out the enemy army in one go, and win the battle quickly.

However, it did not help in the subsequent occupation of the Cochin Kingdom.

The emperor's method is not the same.

If the powerful families are suppressed, it will be difficult for these powerful families to hinder the subsequent administration of the imperial court.

And distributing the land of the wealthy clan to the refugees and the common people can win people's hearts.

Not just Linyi County.

When the refugees who moved south in other counties heard about it, they would definitely turn their hearts to the Han Dynasty.

What's more, they were driven all the way from the north to the south. Who wants to be a lost dog if they can have fields and land to cultivate?
At that time, these refugees can be allowed to enter the city and deceive the city.

Or let the refugees become free labor to help the Han army grab food.

What's more, you can choose the strong and strong among them, directly recruit them as soldiers, act as the leading party, march all the way north, and counterattack Jiaozhi.

As for the food and grass problem that plagued the Han army, it was also solved.

After beating so many powerful families, are you afraid that there will be no food?

If they kept suppressing the powerful clan like this, maybe this battle would be profitable again, and Xiao Yuanchang, who was still struggling to raise food and grass in the rear, would have done nothing again.

It can even take out a lot of food and grass to help the people, further winning people's hearts.

As for the problem of the soldiers, it is even less of a problem.

Whether it is the gold and silver collected from the wealthy family, or the bullies and powerful people who have been beheaded, they can stabilize morale.

What's more, the emperor had an ingenious way of asking the soldiers to help resettle the refugees.

What are the refugees thinking now?
After dividing the fields, they would naturally thank the emperor, the court, and the Han army.

Then how will they treat and help the soldiers they place?
What will happen if the soldiers are treated and appreciated by the refugees?

The only thing that worried Chen Fujia was the subsequent impact.

Most people don't have any idea about the emperor's suppression of the wealthy family. Most of the aristocratic families in Qiongzhou are also in the honeymoon period with the big man and will not make too many moves.

Don't be afraid of [-] in everything, just in case, even though this is a small country of Fanbang, those who are suppressed are all wealthy families who cannot fight with the Central Plains.

However, if some accident happened suddenly, and it was expected earlier that the Donghu people might attack from the inside of the big man, there might be trouble in the rear.

However, Chen Fujia didn't take it too seriously. There were too many preconditions for trouble in the rear. Even if all of them were met, according to the current progress, the emperor would be able to lay down Jiaozhi and return to Qiongzhou in a few months.

For a few months, even if there is a real mess, it will still send money and food to the court.

"Unless Great Khan Donghu personally enlists, but we all know that old dog is old and in poor health. If he enlists himself, it is probably the same as sending him to death?"

Chen Fujia muttered casually, he is now looking forward to the death of Khan Donghu.

Once the Great Khan died, the Eight Divisions of Donghu were divided by internal strife, and it was more convenient for the Yingchuan Chen family to invest in the Great Han.
-
Zhang Yiping was in the camp, constantly dispatching scouts to check for news about the Han army.

The soldiers and horses in his hands are not at all the opponents of the Han army in good condition and high morale.

Either rely on the city to fight a defensive battle, or attack it by surprise, find a chance to fight to the death, and defeat the Han army.

The three counties of Jiaozhi County, Jiuzhen County, and Rinan County have county soldiers garrisoned, so don't worry too much.

Therefore Zhang Yiping chose the latter, waited for the opportunity, and tried to defeat the enemy with one blow.

No matter how strong the Han army can fight, food and supplies are still a problem. As long as there is a problem, it is the time for him to launch an attack.

At the same time, Gao Rang's refugee poison scheme is slowly progressing.

If all goes well, the Han army will soon fall into a food and grass crisis.

If they forcibly grab the harvest of autumn grain and drive out the refugees, they will definitely lose the hearts of the people.

Losing people's hearts is more difficult than a food crisis.

It can be said that every step is difficult. Even if the Han army can take down all the counties under the rule of Nichinan County, it must also guard against the Cochin National Uprising at any time and recapture the city.

But to guard against an uprising, you have to send troops to garrison.

But the Han army only had [-] soldiers and horses, and they had to deploy defenses along the coast. Once the troops were divided and stationed, he would be given an opportunity.

Zhang Yiping was still thinking with his eyes closed. Although this exile plan hurt the people, it ultimately put the Han army in danger.

Once the Han army is driven out of Jiaozhi Kingdom and the refugees are resettled, it will not be difficult.

"General, there is news back!"

Lei Lan hurriedly entered the account.

Zhang Yiping opened his eyes suddenly, his brows were slightly frowned, Lei Lan's steps were messy and heavy, which did not seem like good news.

"Has something gone wrong with the refugees?"

"How did the Han army respond?"

Lei Lan looked a little anxious:
"After the Han army captured the county seat, they divided the wealthy families into their families and property, and all the land they gained was distributed to the poor and refugees."

"Han army. How could it be so?"

Zhang Yiping's eyes just opened were wide open, looking unbelievable.

He could imagine that the Han army could easily capture the county.

He can also imagine that the Han army will deal with the rich.

After all, the last Emperor Zhaolie, who successfully restored the Han Dynasty, did similar things.

When Emperor Zhaolie entered Shuzhong, he harvested the wealthy households in the city and the big families who strongly resisted his entry into Shu.

Then return all the property.

Such a move won the hearts of the people and stopped the looting of soldiers and horses.

But Zhang Yiping never expected that the Han army took the land, not for show, nor for self-abundance of grain and grass, let alone returning it.

Instead, all the points were given to the people in the city and the refugees.

Yes, this is a way to win the hearts of the people, and everyone can see it.

However, when there are countless lands and countless grains in front of them, they still don't take them by themselves, but distribute them to others. How many people can do it?

Even if it is for the hearts of the people, how many people can have such courage?
But Emperor Han did it.

"How about those refugees?"

Lei Lan frowned, exhaustion was written all over his face, he looked very depressed, and his tone was extremely low:
"The refugees were devoted to the Han Dynasty, and even spontaneously led the way for the Han army and assisted in attacking various counties."

"There are also refugees who have joined the army and want to attack the city with the Han army."

"As for those refugees who have not had any contact with the Han army for the time being, they entered the county seat, and they are still secretly waiting for the Han army to attack the city, secretly trying to find a way to help the Han army break through the city."

"Even the local people in those counties probably have this in mind."

"Even some timid ones took the initiative to help the Han army harvest and process the grain for the autumn harvest."

"In a short period of time, the Han army will not have a food crisis!"

"On the contrary, the counties and counties under the rule of Ninan County are now in jeopardy!"

In Zhang Yiping's eyes, he seemed to have seen the scene where the common people ate pots of oatmeal to welcome Master Wang.

Just now I was thinking that after the Han army occupied the county, they should beware of uprisings, but now they were revolted instead.

How long has it been, and the appeal of Emperor Han is simply unimaginable.

Fortunately, Zhang Yiping has the style of a general, and he did not fall into a slump like Lei Lan, but continued to ask:

"How did the powerful families in each county react?"

According to his thinking, the tyrants were forcibly split up by the Han Emperor, so they should do more to resist and mobilize all resources to defend the city.

Seeing this, Lei Lan shook his head. General Zhang was gentle and martial, but unfortunately he came from a humble background and didn't understand the minds of wealthy families.

Howard, soft knees.

When dealing with the common people, they can run rampant in Yurou Township.

But against the regular army, it can't be a climate at all.

"After the Han army forcibly broke through the county seat, the wealthy families who resisted strongly were all killed."

"Most wealthy families think that instead of losing their lives, it is better to divide the family and property. Most of them finally chose to obey, and then let the elites of the clan join the big man."

Zhang Yiping was speechless, how could this group of rich people be so useless?

When others put a knife on your neck, you have to smile and give away the family property, and let your son be someone's younger brother.

But he is not incomprehensible.

As long as someone in the family becomes an official in the Han court, there will be any land and property in the future.

This time they can be killed, robbed, and divided, but when the world is settled, there won't be so many reasons to do it.

Zhang Yiping really didn't know how to feel.

If he hadn't rescued the county magistrate back then, he might be one of the people who have been divided into fields now, right?
The victory of the Han army is a victory of virtue.

Even if the discipline of the army is a little bit worse, or if the Emperor Han has a little more selfishness, it will not succeed.

But it happened in the end.

He even suspected that Emperor Han tasted the herbs himself for all of this. Only with such prestige can he convince the public.

Could it be that all of this happened when Emperor Handi first landed from Vung Tau Port?
Even the refugees?
"Gao Xiangguo."

So much so that Zhang Yiping didn't know what Gao Rang was thinking.

Judging from the strategy, it was originally a poisonous strategy, and no matter what the Han army did, it would be in trouble.

But judging from the results, those refugees who put the Han army in a dilemma, on the contrary, boosted the hearts of the big men in Jiaozhi.

It has further become an accomplice of the Han army in attacking the city.

Lao Gao is an undercover agent, right? ?
Zhang Yiping shook his head hastily, and put this unrealistic thought behind him.

Gao Rang is now in charge of the military and political power. If he is really an undercover agent, don't fight this battle. There are knives in the front and back, so he can't fight at all.

"Withdraw the troops and retreat to Jiuzhen County."

"Withdraw the troops?"

Lei Lan rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, extremely puzzled.

Shouldn't we send troops and generals to support the counties now?

He hurriedly forcibly lifted his spirits and persuaded:

"General, if our army can send more soldiers and horses to defend the counties, those tyrants will definitely be enemies of the Han army!"

"But if you just withdraw the troops like this, it is equivalent to giving the entire Rinan County to the Han army for nothing!"

Zhang Yiping shook his head, without further explanation.

The common people and refugees joined the Han army, the mighty and powerful surrendered, and the Han army was in full swing.

The current situation, in the final analysis, is that the Han army is too strong and the county cannot be defended at all.

Instead of dying, the tyrants can only put themselves on the chopping board and let the Han army cut their flesh.

Now that he has divided troops and horses to defend the county, he can indeed make Hao Qiang an enemy of the Han army.

But then?
Among the Jiaozhi, there are only fifty thousand soldiers and horses in his hands.

Also because Emperor Han tasted a hundred herbs, Lei Lan rushed forward and lost eight thousand.

The number of remaining soldiers and horses is almost the same as that of the Han army.

Once the troops are divided, they will be defeated one by one by the Han army.

But there are no soldiers in hand, and only relying on the county soldiers, although they can defend the city, they lose the opportunity to attack.

I can only watch the Han army continue to go northward like this, constantly attacking the rich to divide the fields, win the hearts of the people, and solve the food and grass worries.

At that time, unless Donghu sends troops to support, Jiaozhi will either besiege the capital or surrender.

But the withdrawal to Jiuzhen County is not the case.

A battleable army was retained, and even if the Han army occupied Rinan County, and there were refugees and common people joining the army to help, they still had to assign manpower to garrison various places.

You can't rely entirely on the refugees and the people to garrison, right?

Regardless of whether the Han army left 5000 or 3000.

As long as the Han army divides its troops to garrison all parts of Rinan County, it will be equivalent to a reduction in personnel.

Under the ebb and flow, the Jiaozhi side has the advantage in strength.

Although it lost a county, it also gained a chance of victory at the same time.

"General."

Seeing that Lei Lan wanted to persuade him, Zhang Yiping just stood quietly, exuding an unshakable aura, making people feel inexplicably reliable, with a calm and confident expression.

Then a few words:

"Advance by retreat."

"For this book, I will write a book and tell Gao Xiangguo how the Han army treats the nobles and refugees."
-
Cochin County.

Gao Rang's mansion was built extremely luxuriously.

There are hundreds of houses, connected to each other, and the eaves are connected to each other.

At this time, Gao Rang was wearing a green robe and was burning incense to worship the statue.

The God of Tianzhu, that is, the god of opening the sky worshiped by the natives of South Vietnam in the middle of Jiaozhi Kingdom.

When Shi Xie entered Jiaozhi, he planned to govern the region with the study of Han family classics.

But I never thought that the classics of the Han family were too profound, not to mention the natives of South Vietnam, even the Han people who kept migrating to Cochin, or the mixed descendants of the two, might not understand it.

So Shi Xie took a different approach and chose belief, which is the myth of South Vietnam.

He claims to be the incarnation of Tianzhu God, and the monarchs of generations will be Tianzhu God's constant reincarnation.

Use this to fool the natives of South Vietnam to better educate and lead them.

This is also the hole card that Shi Xie left for the Shi family.

If it really comes to the point where foreign enemies are unstoppable, you can use the identity of the monarch as the incarnation of Tianzhu God to call on the Jiaozhi natives.

The fighting power of those aborigines in the Cochin Mountain forest is comparable to that of elite soldiers.

Gao Rang actually didn't believe this, but after years of worship, it has become a habit.

He moved gracefully, lit the incense burner next to the statue with the incense candle in his hand, and the smoke flew out of the incense burner in an instant, filling the room with fragrance.

dong dong dong-

A servant in the mansion knocked on the door and whispered:
"Xiangguo, there is an urgent report from the front line."

When Gao Rang heard the words, he seemed to be disturbed, and his face showed displeasure.

But after he went out, his face was still as easy-going as usual, with a smile and squinted eyes, like a very honest person.

Entering the lobby, I saw the Korean and Chinese military officials waiting in the hall.

Everyone in the palace knows what kind of virtue that master is, but now that the military situation is urgent, they know who to turn to.

Seeing Gao Rang coming, all the civil and military personnel worship together.

"Gao Xiangguo."

Gao Rang also gave enough respect to his colleagues and gave him a deep gift.

The first one to speak was Lu Shan. Although he was ugly and not very likable, Gao Rang still attracted him as his confidant and was quite reliable.

Lu San's face was worried, and his tone seemed very disturbed:
"Xiangguo, the refugees have not worked."

"Emperor Han broke through the county seat, suppressed the wealthy family, and distributed the fields of the wealthy family to the refugees and the common people, which solved the problems of the refugees and supplemented the food and grass at the same time."

"Those refugees also reciprocated and assisted the Han army in attacking various counties."

"Although Rinan County has not yet fallen, it is almost a foregone conclusion that the Han army will take over."

"General Zhang knows that he is invincible, and he will lose if he forces a battle. He has withdrawn his troops and is preparing to retreat to Jiuzhen County."

After Gao Rang heard this, the warm smile on his face froze, and he lost his composure for a while.

I never thought that Emperor Han would be so decisive to directly suppress the wealthy family and collect the land.

What is even more unbelievable is that even half an acre of land was not taken, but distributed to refugees and common people.

And those little people really put their minds to it because of Emperor Han's call.

As a result, such a situation was created. On the land of Jiaozhi, the Han army used the fields of Jiaozhi to buy the hearts of the people of Jiaozhi, and then used the people of Jiaozhi to attack the city of Jiaozhi.

Is this reasonable?

This is completely unreasonable! !

Even if there were many civil and military people who questioned Zhang Yiping:

"Why did General Zhang retreat without fighting?"

"Gao Xiangguo, that Zhang Yiping came from a humble background, he is no different from those refugees, and he always cares about the people in his daily life. If the Emperor of Han did such a thing, Zhang Yiping might have a second heart!"

"Zhang Yiping has [-] troops, and he has the morale of the army. You must guard against it!"

"Quiet!"

Gao Rang suddenly yelled, interrupting the dispute. He looked at the crowd with a calm but persuasive tone:

"General Zhang advances by retreating, calmly observes the situation, and waits for the opportunity. What's wrong?"

"At this time, the Han army is in full swing, and it has won the hearts of the local refugees and the people. If it were you, if you led the troops to fight the Han army, would you be able to win a battle?"

"Aside from losing troops and generals, what's the use?"

Gao Rang is a person who can tell the difference between the important and the important, and his resourcefulness is also good.

These words made people feel at ease, and directly woke up many people.

Lu Shan also chimed in and said:

"General Zhang is loyal, there is no need to say more."

"Even if the Han army occupies Rinan County entirely, after the troops are divided and garrisoned, how many battle-ready soldiers are left for marching north?"

"At that time, according to the two counties of Jiuzhen and Jiaozhi to resist it, what can the Han army do?"

After all the generals discussed it, they felt that it was indeed feasible, and they said humanely:

"General Zhang is leading the troops on the front line, and I am waiting in the rear. We must not just sit idly by."

"According to Jiuzhen County, it is too passive. I don't know if Gao Xiangguo has a countermeasure?"

Gao Rang glanced at Tang Zhongwu, and said softly:

"Everyone, please calm down."

A group of civil and military men couldn't figure it out, and suddenly a short, dark-skinned warrior moved his nose and said:

"Incense?"

"Gao Xiangguo just worshiped the God of Tianzhu?"

"Exactly."

Gao Rang regained that complacent look, nodded with a smile and said:
"From south to north in the middle of the country, although there is no danger to defend the whole country, in Jiuzhen County, there is a mountain range running through it, which is not a soldier of our country."

Hearing Gao Rang's words, all the civil and military men knew it well.

Gao Rang refers to the South Vietnamese aborigines in the long mountains.

Even if these natives would not listen to their orders and take the initiative to attack the Han army, but the Han army entered the Changshan border, and a little agitation could cause conflicts between the two sides.

The dark-skinned warrior was even more eager to try, saying:

"Xiangguo, why don't you let me go to Changshan to persuade this non-soldier soldier?"

Gao Rang agreed: "Then I will leave to General Ba."

"Yes."

Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ba Lin is a native of South Vietnam. He is more pure-blooded than Zhang Yiping. He also has courage and prestige, so he can be used as a candidate to persuade the natives to send troops.

So what if the Han army occupied Rinan County?

After the troops are divided into garrisons, the coastline must be guarded to ensure the transportation of supplies. How many soldiers are left to fight?

At most twenty or thirty thousand.

Don't say that among the South Vietnamese natives, there are at least [-] young and middle-aged men available, even if they are against the [-] soldiers in Zhang Yiping's hands, it is difficult to win.

At that time, as long as this Han army is destroyed, the lost ground can be easily recovered.

Many people even felt that the loss of the city and land was part of Gao Rang's calculations.

On the surface, the Han army occupied the land, but in fact, it was invisible, losing troops and losing generals!
Moreover, after the refugees moved south, the supply of grain and grass in the middle school was also guaranteed. In the two counties of Jiuzhen and Jiaozhi, there was no need to spend extra food and grass for relief, and at the same time, unstable factors were ruled out.

Isn't all of this the best barrier against the Han army?

However, Lu Shan among the crowd was not as optimistic as other colleagues.

Originally, the Jiaozhi Kingdom wanted to send troops to enter Qiongzhou.

Now he is on the defensive and has to give up Rinan County. Isn't it completely passive?
