Chapter 119 [The joys and sorrows of Gongsun Du]

(Thank you, the two combo rewards in the morning, thank you so much! There is also Zhao Wuxiu 2014, the glorious charter continues to support it, thank you!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the backyard of the Liaodong Prefect's Mansion, under a lush locust tree, several short tables and two rows of soft mats were placed. A fat middle-aged man with a long crown and light robe was combing under the waiter of a group of maids.

This man had a wide forehead, thick eyebrows, slender eyes, straight nose, wide mouth, and a beautiful beard under his jaw. Under the combed by the maid's slender hands and jade comb, it was neat and shiny, making him look even more handsome. A maid held a bronze mirror in his hand, allowing the middle-aged man to take a look. The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand. All the maids bent down and bowed their heads, and retreated respectfully.

At this time, the servant who had been standing carefully under the stone steps not far away walked forward and bowed to report: "Report to the envoy, don't come."

The middle-aged man nodded: "Biography."

There are several envoys in Liaodong who are qualified to be called envoys, but in Liaodong Prefecture, there is only one person - Liaodong Prefect Gongsun Du.

If you just look at your appearance, it is hard to believe that this man with a very handsome appearance and a righteous look could have such decisive and cruel means, causing a bloody storm in Liaodong. But if you look at Gongsun Du's resume carefully, it is not difficult to find out the clues.

Gongsun Du was only a minor official from Xuantu, but he was similar to Gongsun Bao, the son of Xuantu prefect Gongsun Yu, who died young, and it happened that Gongsun Du's nickname was also called "Leopard". This series of coincidences were simply tailor-made for the appreciation of the leader. Next, things were like all subordinates who were appreciated and respected by the leader, and Gongsun Du's life path was heading towards a prosperous road.

Gongsun Guan first sent him to study, married him, and then recommended him to serve as the Shangshu Lang. After that, he had a prosperous official career and rose to prominence. He became the governor of Jizhou and a provincial and ministerial officer at the age of less than 40. This can be used as an inspirational teaching material for a person with a humble background and no family background.

However, with Gongsun Jun's death, Gongsun Du, who lacked connections, was quickly kicked off from the position of governor of Jizhou and sat on the bench for several years until the end of Zhongping. The second nobleman in his life appeared. This person was Dong Zhuo's subordinate, Xu Rong, who was the General of the Central Army at that time.

Xu Rong was born in Xuantu County and was a villager with Gongsun Du. In the sixth year of Zhongping (189), he recommended Gongsun Du as the prefect of Liaodong.

Gongsun Du has endured himself in the past few years and has not gained nothing. From the ups and downs of his officialdom, he concluded that only toughness can lead to power. Without a backstage, he is the biggest backstage; without a background, he is the strongest background.

Gongsun Du's toughness was demonstrated since he took office. Previously, Xiangping ordered Gongsun Zhao to force his son Gongsun Kang to guard the garrison and only serve as the sergeant commander. This was not inappropriate for the background of the Gongsun family, but for a child at the level of a governor, it was almost humiliating.

As soon as Gongsun Du took office, he looked for an opportunity to commit Gongsun Zhao and whipped him to death in the downtown area. The violent methods were terrifying.

After that, because of the minor official Gongsun Du's background and the violent methods, the prominent families in Liaodong County both despise and fear. The confrontation became more and more intense, and finally reached the point where they had to break up.

In the third year of Chuping, Gongsun Du, who had already gained a foothold and reached an interest alliance with the major families of Zhongyang, Liu, Yang and Jia, took the initiative to make the best and launched a bloody purge. In just one year, Liaodong was built into a powerful government with his will of Gongsun Du as the main will, and became the weakest prince among the heroes in the world at that time.

It is certainly a welcome victory in the battle to wipe out the aristocratic family, but Gongsun Du did not indulge in joy for too long. This is just the first step in his plan, and the next is the key. Don’t engage in Yangyi’s arrival, because of this.

"Yang Yi meets the lord."

This person who is about thirty years old, with a long face and tall face, a well-mannered appearance and a high-sounding person is the Liaodong Prefecture Mansion. In Liaodong, the Yang family is definitely the best family. Yang Zhong, the previous head of the Yang family, was the former Liaodong Prefect. He has been in charge of the county for nearly ten years and has achieved great political achievements with his reputation and family support. However, this person is not lucky. In the fourth year of Zhongping (187), he was killed by the rebel Zhang Chun and Qiu Li, which made Gongsun Du cheaper.

Yang Yi was the eldest son. After taking over the head of the Yang family, Gongsun Du tried his best to win over him and eliminated him as a different leader. He relied on him very much and became the second-ranked figure in Liaodong.

Seeing that his arms, who was more than ten years younger than him, knelt on the soft mat to salute, Gongsun Du did not dare to be negligent. He knelt with both knees, straightened his body, raised his sleeves and hips, and returned the salute with his sleeves.

Gongsun Du dared to cut off the Liaodong family, and to a large extent he received support from the Yang family. Without the support of Yang family's money and grain, Gongsun Du could not even support the 200,000 hu of grain and grain in Zhen family and collapsed. Of course, Yang's doing this was not a dedication of love. Afterwards, they could get at least 20% of the land of those families who were detained.

Gongsun Du smiled and said to Yang Yi: "Zi Xiu, although you and I are superiors and subordinates, they are also in-laws. This is a private house in the backyard, so there is no need to be so formal."

Yang Yi's cousin married Gongsun Kang, son of Gongsun Du, and the relationship between the two families was quite close. The marriage between the prefect and the local famous family was a common method of winning over the various forces during the Three Kingdoms period, which was common.

Yang Yi said to the ritual: "Yi is here for business, and rituals cannot be abolished."

When he said it was a business, Gongsun Du had a straight face and sat upright and said, "Please tell me, Zixiu."

"There have been postmen who have sent a letter to Zheng, the envoy of the bride, to receive the army and horse envoy Zhang. The bride of Zhen's family has come to the forefront and is here to come to Xiangping."

"Well, it's great." Gongsun Du smiled, "It's really not easy to send a bride for thousands of miles. I'm glad to be safe all the way... Could it be that something happened?" Before he finished speaking, he saw that Yang Yi's face was different, so he changed his mouth and asked.

Yang Yi then robbed Zheng Gao of the first report of the bride and reported it to the truth.

Sure enough, as Su Puyan and his son and Zheng Gao expected, although Gongsun Du was very angry, he did not show much indignation. He heard the latter and nodded frequently, obviously quite satisfied with the result. All he wanted was people and food. Although the dowry was half reduced, it was still acceptable. As for whether the bride would suffer any harm, this was not something that a prefect had to consider.

Similarly, after the matter was properly resolved, Yang Yi no longer took the matter to heart. The focus of the conversation turned to another important figure in the bride robbery incident - Ma Han.

If Ma Wen heard what Yang Yi said next, he would be shocked. Yang Yi said: "We have handed over the 2,000 soldiers in Bailang City one after another. More than 800 people were selected as the first-ranked soldiers and more than 1,000 soldiers as auxiliary soldiers. Seven people were above the rank of the rank of the rank of the army, and one of them was awarded this position. Unfortunately, no one can serve as the Sima of the Army, and there is not even a fake Sima."

Gongsun Du nodded: "How many people are there in these military marquises, generals, and garrison leaders?"

Yang Yi was confident: "Don't worry, lord, when he was recruiting troops, Yi moved all the families of the soldiers to a place and sent people to guard them. With the soldiers and relatives in hand, not to mention the generals, even those soldiers would probably obey with the order. But it should not be delayed too long. If it takes three years or two years to become an army, it would be hard to say."

I have to say that Yang Yi's move is quite insidious. If Ma Han had not used that trick to brainwash, the result would be hard to say.

Gongsun Du said lightly: "I won't wait that long. I'll wait for this matter. The next step is to purify the military."

To crack down on powerful people and establish authority is just the first step. The next step is that Gongsun Du has to rectify the army, and this combination of punches must be fought. All families in Liaodong have certain connections in the army, and all the children in the clan serve in the army. Although most of them have low positions and are scattered everywhere, this hidden danger cannot be underestimated. Purging the army is definitely the top priority. When implementing this plan, Gongsun Du thought of western Liaoning.

To be honest, when Gongsun Du set aside a city for Ma Hange's Hange tribe, he never thought that this young man was so good at doing things. In just one year, he had torn up tens of thousands of people and five thousand soldiers. This made Gongsun Du happy and worried. What he was happy was that this powerful army was in control of western Liaoning, and Tadun in Liucheng was much more honest. He dared not cross Yiwuwu Mountain at will and plunder the Liaodong border city; what he was worried was that this was just a different army after all, and it was not under his control at all. This was almost intolerable for a hero who had just won a great victory in the battle against the local tyrants, gradually gaining ambition, and wanted to achieve the great cause of "King of Liaodong".

The so-called time, and then, the original hunting dog has become a fierce wolf with sharp teeth and claws. When the chain eyes are not trapped, how to seize the leadership of these wild wolves has become a big problem in front of you.

"If you want to collect a group of wolves, behead the wolf first!" Yang Yi made a killing move, "Take the time when he entered the county to report his duties."

Gongsun Du pondered for a long time and shook his head and said, "It is now a turbulent autumn. The county and the army are in turmoil and uneasy. It is not advisable to have troubles. When I meet this person, I will be comforted and comforted. It is best to make him convinced and be under my Liaodong Army."

"What if he doesn't follow?"

"Don't worry, Zixiu, I have already made a decision and I will take his army." Gongsun Du said with confidence, "But Zixiu wants to step up the encirclement of the generals of Bailang City. Tian Guorang is a talent, but he seems to be a little ignorant of the praises, but he doesn't know how Zhao Zilong and Taishi Ziyi."

Yang Yi thought for a while and said, "One of these two people is a minor official in Huang County and the other is a military general. Both of them have gone out of a poor family, so it is not difficult to win over them."

"Okay, I will hand over this matter to you. After the matter is completed, I will reward the merits of White Wolf City."

Yang Yi was overjoyed and thanked him for a long time. He had been secretly fighting with the chief clerk Liu Yi. Before that, Liu Yi had always been in charge of the matter in Bailang City. Last year, there was nothing but a group of migrant tribes. Unexpectedly, a year later, Bailang City became a delicious fruit. How could Yang Yi not be jealous? At this moment, he received the promise of the prefect, and Yang Yi was proud of it. Not only did he get a city, but importantly, he defeated Liu Yi by another round.

Gongsun Du finally repeatedly reminded Yang Yi to take advantage of the opportunity of feeding grain every quarter and plant more carefully in Bailang City, and Yang Yi responded with utmost satisfaction.
