Time flies by and three years have passed!
And Youzhou under the governance of Liu Zhe became the richest state in the Han Dynasty, and it was also the most powerful state.
Three years ago, Liu Zhe's new aide Xun Yu put forward a suggestion, which was to develop in a low-key manner and not participate in court affairs, and also proposed developing northward.
Liu Zhe listened to Xun Yu's advice and did not get involved in the power struggle at the court, nor did he pay attention to the affairs of other places. He concentrated on governing Youzhou, and at the same time, his power gradually penetrated beyond the Great Wall.
From June to September 185, he led the troops to rescue Gongsun Zan, who underestimated the enemy and was besieged in Liucheng. He fought more than ten battles with Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju rebels, and finally defeated Wuhuan's most powerful tribe in one fell swoop. That is to say, the Qiuliju tribe was wiped out and its people moved to the fortress and dispersed into various villages.
From September to October 186, they defeated the 100,000 Xiongnu troops led by the Right Xiongnu Shanyu Luanti and Yufuluo under the Great Wall. They then went straight to the Youxiongnu royal court and plundered countless people. They returned with a great victory and ordered the Youxiongnu to They split again. One group moved to Bingzhou and the north of Liangzhou, and the other group surrendered to Liu Zhe.
In 187, the Wuhuan tribe united with other tribes on the grassland to invade Youzhou. Liu Zhe divided his troops into three groups and headed outside the fortress, and finally fought with the enemy in Baishan. In this battle, the general staff headed by Guo Jia came up with a lot of ingenuity and clever tricks. They burned 300,000 enemy coalition forces with one fire and left ten houses on the grassland empty. Even the children stopped crying when they heard Guo Jia's name in the middle of the night. 1
For a time, the name of the genius Guo Jia was heard outside the Great Wall!
Liu Zhe stationed troops in the grasslands captured outside the Great Wall, combined Han and foreigners, and vigorously developed animal husbandry, raising cattle, horses and sheep, providing Youzhou with a large amount of meat and high-quality war horses.
Externally, Youzhou¡¯s army has won consecutive battles, which frightened the foreigners. It is quite similar to the invincible army during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Some people have secretly called Liu Zhe Liu Qiaoqi, the same name as Huo Qiaoqi.
Internally, Liu Zhe vigorously developed industry and commerce, and Youzhou became a commercial paradise for the entire Han Dynasty. Countless businessmen came from all over the country every day to resell a large number of Youzhou's special products to other places. Youzhou's commercial tax revenue once exceeded agricultural tax revenue. .
It is not that no one has wanted to attack Youzhou in recent years, but Liu Zhe has long been prepared. The emperor and the ten ministers around him can receive a large gift from Liu Zhe every year, a sum that can blind their eyes. Gift. With these gifts, as long as Liu Zhe is not rebelling in Youzhou, no one can shake his position. Even they are a little taboo about Liu Zhe's power!
However, in the past few years, the Han Dynasty's court has become increasingly chaotic, and there are countless corrupt officials, who wish they could use up the last strength of the Han Dynasty!
Liu Zhe didn¡¯t care about this, and acted like it had nothing to do with him.
"Haha, come on, let's have a drink"
On this day, Xiaoxingzhuang was brightly lit and very lively, and the sound of excitement even spread outside the city wall.
¡°What¡¯s going on inside?¡± a soldier passing by on patrol asked quietly.
"Have you forgotten that today is New Year's Eve?" someone whispered.
"Oh, it turns out it's the year-end meeting." The soldier understood, and then asked: "By the way, have our year-end bonuses been distributed?"
"It's given. I'll go get it after the patrol." The captain in front heard the words behind him, turned his head and said fiercely: "Please pay attention to me, otherwise your year-end bonus will be deducted."
Liu Zhe created the year-end bonus and year-end party based on the ideas of the 21st century. Every year on New Year's Eve, he would entertain his subordinates, where everyone would eat, drink, and give out something to enhance their relationship.
"My lord, I'd like to offer you a toast." Xun Yu came to Liu Zhe and offered a toast.
Xun Yu has been working under Liu Zhe for three years, and he has great admiration for Liu Zhe. In the past three years, Youzhou has developed rapidly and has completely changed from what it was three years ago. Moreover, Youzhou has become the most powerful state in the Han Dynasty, and its economic strength can be compared with the three or even four states in other places combined.
"Come!" Liu Zhe looked at Xun Yu happily and responded with a smile!
Xun Yu helped him a lot in the past three years. His political 99 attributes made him handle government affairs very well. He handled all the affairs in Youzhou very well, freeing Xi Zhicai and Xu Shu to focus on military affairs. They shine in alien battles.
And Xun Yu also took a lot of credit for Liu Zhe's ability to lead his troops to win consecutive battles against foreigners outside the Great Wall.
And Xun Yu not only helped Liu Zhe manage Youzhou, but also introduced many talents. A large number of Yingchuan talents such as Xun You and Chen Qun were recommended by him, which greatly enriched the strength of Liu Zhe's men.
Thinking of Xun Yu¡¯s contribution, Liu Zhe had to think of Guo Jia, otherwise?Guo Jia introduced Xun Yu. He didn't know when he would find a talent like Xun Yu.
When he thought of this, he found Guo Jia's figure in a corner. When he saw it, he was immediately angry and happy. He saw Guo Jia holding Zhang Fei in his arms, and the two of them were drinking one glass at a time.
¡°These two guys were the most rude at this banquet. Chen Qun didn¡¯t know how many times he complained to these two guys in front of him.
No, Chen Qun was so angry that his mouth was twisted!
