Gongsun Zhu's words made several people on the side couldn't help but laugh.
However, it was a joke, but they also wanted to know if the guy named Song was still in Liangzhou.
If you are still in Liangzhou...then this life will really be impossible.
Fortunately, Guan Ning did not disappoint them, and neither did the court.
Although during the Yellow Turban War, the imperial court always did stupid things, and some unreliable guys often appeared there in the northwest.
But the court has always been very satisfied with the speed with which officials are dismissed.
To put it in Guan Ning's words, the Emperor of Song Dynasty almost went to Liangzhou to kill him alive as soon as he handed over the memorial to the envoy of Song Dynasty.
His ancestral graves are about to be dug up, and he still wants to carry out a large-scale enlightenment. Is this crazy?
Song Xiao naturally became the shortest serving governor in the history of Liangzhou under normal circumstances of dismissal. A memorial was sent to him personally.
However, Guan Ning also put forward some different meanings regarding this matter.
"If you just look at this incident, Song Xiao is indeed an extremely pedantic person.
But if he is really pedantic, then he naturally does not need to go to such trouble and tell the subordinate generals below to make them very opposed to his proposal.
There is no need to tell the court, and he will end up being dismissed from office.
If he is really pedantic and really thinks that this is the right thing to do, then his only way is to do it directly at the local level.
As for whether it was right or wrong in the end, he felt it was right in his heart.
So why go to such great lengths and still not get it done?
Therefore, he was very curious about this Song Xiaoguan. Mr. Ning felt that this guy was not pedantic, but had already seen that the northwest was so corrupt that it could not be solved by ordinary people.
Even if someone could solve it, it would definitely not be me.
Rather than wait until failure and then be punished by the court, or let the situation become more corrupt, or even waste your life.
It would be better to simply stand up and let them see how ridiculous you are, and then let the court take the initiative to remove you.
As for the rest, just leave it to the people behind. "
Guan Ning's words made Gongsun Zhu, Liu Bei and others couldn't help but look at each other.
This is still unexpected, but according to Guan Ning, this matter is not impossible.
For a while, the two people nodded silently, but they did not take this matter to their hearts.
After all, this situation really has nothing to do with them.
After Guan Ning finished talking about Song Xiao, he continued to introduce the subsequent situation to everyone.
"After Song Xiao, the newly appointed governor of Liangzhou was called Yang Yong. This...at least up to now, he is still a normal person..."
When Guan Ning used the word "normal person" to describe an important official in the court, the matter itself had become very abnormal.
Especially at this time and in such a situation in Liangzhou.
Even though Yang Yong was quite normal, it was difficult to save this depressing situation. The former Qiang Protector Colonel Ling Zheng died in battle, and his successor was the veteran Xia Yu who had followed the old general Duan Jue.
However, not long ago, during the battle in Youfufeng, General Xia Yu was also unfortunately killed. Gaixun was defeated by the Qiang Hu and Xiongnu companies on the way to rescue. He was seriously injured and was almost on the verge of death.
Fortunately, Gai Xun has done well in these years and has a high prestige in the northwest. He is also a truly good person and official in the hearts of the foreigners.
Then he did not die directly on the battlefield, but was sent back directly by the Qiang people who besieged him after being seriously injured.
This was because Gai Xun's prestige in Yongliang was too high, and they couldn't bear to kill him, otherwise the grass on his grave would be three feet high.
But officially because of this, Gongsun Zhu, Liu Bei and others are now more clear about the current situation.
In other words, I have a better understanding of the situation in the northwest.
To put it simply, the situation in the northwest is very complicated, but the hearts of people in the northwest are extremely simple.
They admire the strong but also believe in kindness and righteousness. If they want to gain a foothold in the northwest, it is also extremely important to gain the trust of the Qiang and Huns.
Although Gongsun Zhu and Liu Bei did not speak at this time, these words could not help but come out in their hearts.
Guan Ning didn't say anything more to them. What needed to be introduced had already been introduced.
What remains is the current situation in the northwest.
“After so many years of ups and downs, the situation in the northwest is now very clear.
First of all, let’s talk about Liangzhou... To be honest, Liangzhou exists as the main body of the four counties of Hexi. The four counties of Hexi in Old Liangzhou have a very long and narrow terrain, and they are easy to attack and difficult to defend.
Now Liangzhou has gone through the disasters of three governors. At this time, Liangzhou... or in other words, the imperial court has very little power left in Liangzhou, and the living forces are basically divided into three.
One of them is Song Yang, who is considered a powerful man in Liangzhou and has gathered a lot of troops at this time.
According to the news in Liangzhou, this person is now gathered in the Heshou Pohan generation. In the entire situation in Liangzhou, he can be regarded as a stubborn person.
However, this person's ability is average. If it weren't for the fact that the place he occupies is too special, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is quite sad.
I am afraid that the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have already gone to wipe him out.
This second is the biggest reason for the chaos in the northwest this time.
Qiang and Hu leader, Beigong Boyu, who was born as the leader of Huangzhongyi!
This person and the forces behind him are definitely powerful, and he has countless Qiang people under his command.
Marquis Li Wen was an ally, Han Yue and Bian Yun were his subordinates, the main force was Jujiazhong Qiang, and the leader was called Dian Wusu.
Among them, Han Yue and Bian Yun had already made a big splash in Liangzhou, while Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu blocked Sanfu.
The troops were divided into two groups. It seemed that their troops were much thinner, but everyone knew that they were still strong.
Of course, since fighting is still going on in the northwest, we cannot say that they are all rebel bandits.
At the very least, there must be a court, or someone from the court watching over it.
Therefore, the third party is the governors of Liangzhou...or the group of people sent by the imperial court to cause chaos in Liangzhou!
Zuo Chang, Song Xiao, and Yang Yong, the three governors of Liangzhou, did not go to Wuwei County and insisted on fighting the Qiang and Hu to the end, nor did they think of fighting the opponent to the death.
They wanted stability from the beginning to the end, so one or two of them stayed in the Anding area of Tianshui.
Among his subordinates who can really fight with Qiang and Hu, and can really be regarded as famous generals, now there is only Gai Xun who is seriously injured!
The rest...hey! "
Guan Ning was a little helpless when he talked about this. To be honest, although he didn't know much about the northwest, he also knew about the century-old battle in the northwest.
How many soldiers of the Han Dynasty fought with their blood to keep Liangzhou intact.
For Liangzhou, the imperial court sent countless good generals and generals to rush over and protect the place extremely well.
The result... In just a short time, Liangzhou has been beaten to the point where its talents have withered away.
All the military officers and generals of the imperial court were almost wiped out.
Generals such as Chen Yiling, Zheng Xia Yu and other generals were all fierce generals who really followed Sanming in Liangzhou back then!
But how are they doing now?
All of them have died in the battle!
As for the garrison captains from places like Xin Zeng and Kong Chang, or the soldiers and generals garrisoned there, to be honest, they are somewhat unable to deal with them.
Of course, this does not mean that there is really no hope for Liangzhou.
In fact, there were still people in Liangzhou who could stabilize the situation. For example, Huang Jun, the governor of Wuwei County who was very prestigious in Liangzhou and had an excellent background...
But I don’t know if this person is too good. Before the war started, he was directly recruited by you because of his countless merits and outstanding political achievements.
That is because the only one in Liangzhou who dared to fight the Qiang and Hu to the end, and even the governor of Wuwei County, Huang Jun, was directly recruited by the imperial court because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. As a result, the entire territory of Liangzhou was actually lost.
Even in the huge Yongzhou area, only the Hanyang generation had people to hold on to it.
After that, the third assistant You Fufeng, Xia Yu and other veteran generals all withered away, leaving only some simple defenders and some generals with no reputation or even great ability who were still holding on. "
After figuring out what was going on here, Gongsun Zhu also breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the people working and asked them if they had any questions.
Things became much simpler after that. Liu Bei and others stood up one after another. They still had many questions about Liangzhou.
After all, this is where they are about to go. If this is the case, then they must have enough understanding.
In addition to their problems, Gongsun Zhu also gave a direct order this time.
"Ignoring the rest, this time before the imperial court's order is officially issued, we will clean Qingzhou again.
We must make the land of Qingzhou...a little cleaner! "
Under the leadership of Gongsun Zhu, a large number of Han army elites rushed directly to Qingzhou. There were many remaining Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, and by this time most of them had been broken into pieces and became rogue bandits.
This allows them to survive better, but it also makes them lose their biggest reliance on survival.
After Gongsun Zhu got some grain and grass as bait from some wealthy merchants in Zhongshan, the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou and the thieves and bandits in the mountain all rushed down as if they couldn't bear it anymore.
Things are simple after that.
From the beginning, Guan, Zhang, and Zhao took turns taking action, and in the end, the remnants of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army gathered together again.
In fact, it didn’t take much time.
And when they all gathered, Gongsun Zhu also rushed over with his soldiers and horses... and wiped them out in one battle!
