However, Zhuocheng is different from Licheng. Although Zhuocheng and Licheng are two important places in the north and south that control the Jishui River, there are more than a thousand old brothers from the Donglai Army in Licheng, while Zhuocheng is basically a local A garrison composed of people.
This is because the powerful forces in the city are relatively weak, and almost all of them surrendered. Due to this extremely cooperative attitude, they have gained relatively more power.
This time, Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, occupied the city after driving away Wang Mi. Of course, he was extremely hostile to Qingzhou. However, for Liu Yu, who had just experienced a great battle and gained a large number of people, the current priority was The problem was to recuperate the army and digest and settle the newly acquired population.
Of course, this does not mean that we should swallow our anger in response to this naked hostile action by Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou.
Liu Yu immediately summoned the generals around him and began to inquire about the kind of person Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, was, because in the late Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Yu only knew about those very famous people, such as Wang Jun and Gou. Xi, Wang Mi and others had a deep impression, but they basically had no impression of Ding Shao, a figure who rarely showed his face.
It is a pity that Gongsun Sheng, who was born as a scholar in Jizhou, is no longer in Licheng at this time. Otherwise, Liu Yu believes that he will definitely be able to tell a lot about the origin of Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou.
Without Gongsun Sheng, the other people had basically no useful information about Gongsun Sheng.
Liu Yu was a little disappointed and planned to send someone to inquire about Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou.
At this time, he sighed, it would be great if he could have someone to collect information for him. In that case, he would not be unaware of hostile people like Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou.
Although he did not understand the motives of Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, for such hostile behavior, Liu Yu still needed to make a strong statement.
Even if he didn't send troops to attack and recapture the city immediately, he still had to send someone to reprimand Ding Shao and show his tough attitude.
In this case, it would be necessary to send one of his subordinates to scold Ding Shao in front of him. Judging from Ding Shao's current behavior, it was an absolute death-seeking act.
Just when Liu Yu felt that no one would take on such a "death mission" and was about to give up after thinking about it, Dong Ping, the governor of Jinan County, recommended a man named Shen Min to him.
When Shen Min met Liu Yu, he happily accepted the task.
Two days later, Liu Yu sent a scholar from Jinan County named Shen Min, who was assigned the position of Cao Cao, to go to the city as an envoy to reprimand Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, for his evil deeds of killing people and seizing the city.
In the sympathetic eyes of Jinan officials, the young scholar named Shen Min embarked on his way to the city. Everyone felt that this young man Shen Min was simply utilitarian. Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, was obviously It was just a provocation, but he still wanted to bring death to his door. It was an absolute act of seeking death.
Liu Yu certainly knew what these people were thinking. In fact, he was also curious about why Shen Min would accept such a task.
However, no matter how curious Liu Yu was, he didn't ask too much. There are too many people in this world who would lick blood from their knifes for a mouthful of rice. For some people, the allure of the position of a county official is comparable to a life of food. Much more important.
After Shen Min went to the city, Liu Yu started to reorganize the Qingzhou army that had finished resting. Even if there was no sudden appearance of the Jizhou governor Ding Shao, he still had to guard against Sima Yue, Shi Le, Wang Mi, Gou Xi, and Liu who were all around. Ling waited for a group of warlords and bandits, large and small.
Regarding this battle with Shi Le and Liu Ling, after repeated discussions with Liu Yu and his subordinates, they all felt that the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army had performed very well. They did not flinch in the face of the fierce enemy, whether it was for beheading. Whether they were promoted and made a fortune, or they were afraid of the harsh military laws in daily life, in short, these ordinary soldiers displayed perfect personal combat capabilities.
Compared with the perfect performance of these ordinary soldiers, the performance of the mid-level and upper-level officers of the Qingzhou Army is indeed somewhat good. Not only the brigade commander Quhou level officers, but also the battalion generals have inflexible command and cannot respond quickly. Changes in enemy attacks.
Moreover, after Liu Yu issued some relatively operable instructions, these generals often failed to understand the intention well, and even misunderstood the instructions of some messengers and made many dangerous moves.
Although Liu Yu knew that there were many reasons for this, for example, most of the officers who came from the Donglai rebels were from rogue bandits. Although they had a year of rigorous military training, they still lacked experience when facing powerful enemies. What's more, because of their successive victories, these generals are filled with pride and satisfaction, and they all feel that they can defeat the enemy by just dealing with them casually.
Of course, Liu Yu actually thinks that there is another most important reason, that is, most of Liu Yu's subordinates are illiterate, basically illiterate, and even illiterate people who can't even write their own names.
Since you are illiterate, you have no way to learn the wisdom of the predecessors in books, and you have no way to summarize and record it in detail yourself. Even on the battlefield, some complicated commands cannot be understood directly, and you often need literate people around you. Help with reading the paraphrase.
Almost everyone in ancient times felt that illiteracy did not affect the achievements of a famous general, but Liu Yu felt that the intensive and frequent wars in modern society tell us that the combat effectiveness of an educated army is often inferior to that of an illiterate army.
Liu Yu felt that an educated mediocre general might not have his upper limit raised too much, but he could have a basically qualified lower limit. This lower limit ensured that the performance of these generals on the battlefield would not be catastrophic.
Therefore, Liu Yu rushed all the hundreds of officers of the Qingzhou Army who had followed him to Licheng, large and small, to the school, and gave them the task of literacy and illiteracy within a time limit.
More than ten years of experience as a student in modern society has made Liu Yu understand how difficult it is for these people to sit down and read in the school. Therefore, unlike ordinary schools and private schools, this Qingzhou Army school is equipped with Of the Military Law Corps.
Any behavior that floutes military law during study will be severely punished. As for what contempt for military law is, there are many things. For example, whispering to each other during class, offending the teacher at will, plagiarizing and cheating in exams, etc. are all considered contempt. In military law, these are all crimes that the soldiers of the military law team can directly whip with whips.
At the beginning, when they heard that Liu Yu was going to teach the officers of the Qingzhou Army, the wealthy and powerful people in Jinan County were all excited.
They felt that if Liu Yu wanted to enlighten so many weak-legged officers, big and small, he would definitely need many lecturers. As far as the Western Jin Dynasty was concerned, these powerful families were not only landlords and bullies, but also academic families. In short, there was no No one is more suitable to be the teacher of these Qingzhou officers.
By that time, the entire Qingzhou Army will not all be disciples of these powerful families. These families who obey the famous religion have already thought about it. When they teach these Qingzhou officers, they must first respect teachers and value teaching. Let’s talk about the discipline of monarchs and ministers and Wenzong etiquette. Let these people first become loyal believers in the famous Confucian religion.
All of a sudden, the prestigious academic families in the entire county became the objects of friendship for other families. Their graceful appearance was like the reappearance of the grand occasion when King Sima Ji of Qi respected the scholars of Qingzhou a few years ago.
However, after a few days of excitement, these aristocratic academic families did not wait until Liu Yu sent someone to invite them to serve as lecturers in the school to teach poetry and classics. After asking again, they were surprised to know that the Qingzhou Military Middle School Private School It seems to have started several days ago.
Moreover, the Qingzhou Army's private school does not teach the Confucian classics such as the Book of Songs, the Analects of Confucius, and the Book of Changes, nor does it teach "the king, the minister, the minister, the father, the son, the son," nor the parallel prose and poetry. , not to mention talking about things, but learning to write and explain some common sayings and words every day, although it is not the "shit and piss" category.
But all this, in the eyes of the aristocratic families in Jinan County, Liu Yu opened a school not to teach poetry and classics, but to teach these common sayings and vernacular words, which is not much different from teaching "shit and piss".
These plans that were originally intended to use the power of being a teacher to gain the opportunity to influence the military and political figures in Qingzhou, and finally influence the military and political affairs, went bankrupt so easily, and were replaced by a school like Liu Yu. It felt like being humiliated. came to their minds.
Suddenly, there were all kinds of rumors in the entire Jinan County, basically accusing the Qingzhou Army of being called a private school. In fact, it was an insult to the famous Confucian religion. If such an important private school did not appoint those members of the aristocratic family, it would be self-defeating and The nobles and celebrities were a big loss to the Qingzhou Army.
In short, in these rumors, Liu Yu's simple military literacy program became an act of hostility to Confucianism.
When Liu Yu learned about these rumors, he almost became angry.
Liu Yu thought angrily: These aristocratic families, in the end of the troubled times, will all be cowards. He has not seen the use of their famous Confucian teachings. I have seen that they are still quite cooperative, unlike others. Those stubborn local tyrants and bullies generally didn't know how to show appreciation, and they had to force Liu Yu to use a knife or a gun before they cooperated, so he gave these noble families a lot of preferential treatment.
I just didn't expect that in the history of the "Five Husbands", when faced with the oppression of the barbarians, these aristocratic families could endure it again and again, lowering their lower limit again and again.
But now, under Liu Yu's respect, he has indeed changed into another face. That look of "Winning from Long to Shu" clearly shows his inner desire and ambition for more power.
When all of their assumptions were not satisfied, they tried to use the pressure of public opinion to force Liu Yu to make concessions.
Of course, Liu Yu would not give up on these two-faced people. In just two days, he arrested all the people who spread slanderous remarks in the city and put them in jail as a warning.
The incident of "Five Husbands Chaosing China" told Liu Yu that what these gossips fear most is always the handle of a knife.
When Liu Yu had just finished taking care of all this, Jinan County official Shen Min, who was heading to the city, came back and brought some surprising news.
In fact, Liu Yu was surprised enough that Shen Min himself came back intact.
Under Liu Yu's inquiry, Shen Min generally talked about his experience.
It turned out that after Shen Min arrived at the city, he met Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou. After seeing Ding Shao, Shen Min did not express Liu Yu's anger about Ding Shao's actions as everyone expected.
Especially after meeting Ding Shao in person, Shen Min didn't even mention the purpose of coming here. He just said a lot of useless greetings, and didn't even mention Ding Shao's killing people and seizing the city, as if all this was nothing. Nothing ever happened.
After hearing these words, Liu Yu's face suddenly darkened. He looked at Shen Min coldly and asked with chilling words.
"You mean, you didn't mention the task I gave you at all?"
After listening to Liu Yu's words, everyone else present knew that Liu Yu was getting angry, and they all looked at Shen Min as if they were looking at a fool.
Shen Min, who was stared at coldly by Liu Yu, did not look panicked at all. He answered the question respectfully, "Min did not mention what the general told me before he left."
After receiving another confirmation from Shen Min, Liu Yu immediately became furious and said that he would drag Shen Min down and serve him with sticks.
However, Shen Min's subsequent words did save him.
"General, calm down. There is a reason why I didn't tell you anything."
Shen Min paused and continued, "Because according to my judgment, Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, is already half dead. I'm afraid he won't live much longer. There is really no need to talk nonsense with a dying person."
After hearing what Shen Min said, Liu Yu didn't really believe it. Many people in the Western Jin Dynasty claimed to have the ability to channel gods and ghosts. Could it be that Shen Min was obsessed with the theory of gods and ghosts and consciously cast ghosts? The art of hating victory, and then come back to do business.
Liu Yu immediately asked people to put Shen Min under control, intending to find a way to deal with the bluffing, power-hungry and powerful family members in Jinan County.
The aristocratic families want to monopolize knowledge to improve their status, while the down-and-out families like Shen Min want to seek official positions through opportunism.
It seems that the powerful officials of Jinan County need to be rectified, otherwise they will have to cause trouble every day.
However, a few days later, before Liu Yu could figure out how to use two things to rectify the powerful people in Jinan County, news suddenly came of the death of Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou.
Two days ago, Ding Shao, the governor of Jizhou, died suddenly of a sudden illness.
When Liu Yu heard this, he instantly remembered the county sergeant Shen Min who had boasted about Haikou a few days ago, saying that Ding Shao would die soon.
Could it be said that this Shen Min is really a spiritual person who has gained enlightenment from ghosts and gods? !
