Chapter 72 Jia Long
"Lord, there is a famous scholar Jia Long from Mianzhu County outside the mansion to ask for a meeting! He said..." Ye Zhao was flipping through the Chengdu household registration sent by Zhang Liao in the mansion. Dian Wei strode in and bowed.
"Let him wait!" Ye Zhao interrupted Dian Wei's words, closed his household registration, and handed it to a civil servant beside him, saying: "Please record these copywriting in paper books, and check it every year, and there are no missing things."
"Here!" Dian Wei agreed and turned around and left when he saw that Ye Zhao had no other explanation.
Outside the prefect of Luo County, a scholar in his fifties stood with his hands behind his back, with three long beards, a rosy complexion, and his gray hair was carefully combed and drifted with the wind, giving him a bit of a fairy-like look. However, a look of anxiety appeared in his eyes from time to time, looking at the door of the mansion.
After a while, Dian Wei came out of the mansion. Seeing this, the scholar hurried forward and said, "General, how? Has Ye Hou agreed to see me?"
"My master and father-in-law are busy with official duties and have no time to see him." Dian Wei clasped his fists and said roughly.
"This..." Jia Long said: "I want to see Ye Hou in the following major matters related to the safety of Shu, and I hope the general will report it again!"
"You old man, you are so ignorant!" Dian Weihu glared at him: "I have already said before, my lord is not available!"
"You..." Jia Long was furious. He was the leader of the scholars in Shu. Even if Liu Yan was afraid of him in the past, he did not dare to blame him. He was respectful when he met. Looking at Shu, who dared to talk to him like this? Just looking at Dian Wei's fierce look, he was swallowed by Jia Long in one breath. Now it was broken. Liu Yan's power was taken over by Ye Zhao. The general situation and the life and death of scholars were controlled by Ye Zhao. Jia Long really had nothing to do to threaten Ye Zhao. He could only hold his breath in a deep voice: "It is related to the future of Shu. If you miss a big thing, the general may not be able to bear it!"
Dian Wei glanced at Jia Long, too lazy to pay attention, so he simply stood in front of the door, standing in front of the door like a door god. After following Ye Zhao for a long time, how could he not know Ye Zhao's thoughts? Ye Zhao's attitude was clearly about leaving this old guy alone. Even if he went to report it himself, the result would be the same. Maybe he would be scolded by Ye Zhao. Although Dian Wei usually has big and thick people, he has this little thought. Thinking about the fact that he ordered a tiger to fight the cart, he knew that this guy was definitely a hob.
Jia Long forced and tempted him, and said all the good things. Dian Wei stood in front of the door without moving, and finally exhausted Jia Long's patience and started to curse.
"It seems that Jia Qiande is really anxious this time." Xi Zhicai sat next to Ye Zhao, and the noise outside came from afar, and he couldn't help but look at Ye Zhao with a smile.
"So, the better the name and surname Jia, it will change its taste. Is it a shameful virtue?" Ye Zhao shook his head and handed another blank book to an official next to him and said: "After this battle, the free land will be collected and recorded on the record. No one can embezzle for any reason. Violators will be punished ten times more! Especially for Shu County, Guanghan and Jianwei County, the free land will be owned by the government."
"Here!"
Xi Zhicai was slightly stunned when he heard Ye Zhao's words, shook his head and laughed. His lord was sometimes really humorous. When he saw Ye Zhao collecting the fields, he pondered: "When Wang Mang's new policy, he had the intention of dividing the fields to win the hearts of the people, which angered the scholars in the world. The lord should be careful about this matter."
"I just allocated those unowned fields, and I didn't let the scholars share the fields like Wang Mang, that's right." Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai with a smile.
That's right, but with Liu Yan and Ye Zhao's clear twice, most of the fields of the three counties were included in Ye Zhao's bag. In fact, there was no difference from the time of Wang Mang. The only difference was that Ye Zhao did not rob. He just killed some people who resisted him. His methods might be ruthless, but they would not be criticized. They were much more ruthless than Ye Zhao.
"When will the lord see that Jia Long?" Xi Zhicai did not continue to talk much about this topic. He and Ye Zhao had studied how to govern Shu before. Some things should not be too urgent, and it would be no good for Ye Zhao to force scholars too tightly.
"From here, the Air Force will arrive in one day. If you go with a fast horse, it will take two days. Now no one can resist our army's troops, but it will take some time to clean up each city, so he will be allowed to climb three or five days." Ye Zhao calculated that it would be better to wait until Ji Ling defeated Jian Wei, and then send someone to stop Ji Ling from killing... Then transfer Ji Ling to Hanzhong, and then come forward to clean up the mess and appease the surviving scholars.
"By the way, has Zhang Lu been making any movement recently?" Ye Zhao suddenly remembered that Zhang Lu had no movement since he stationed troops in Langzhong. During this period, Ye Zhao had several troops in Zitong and Jiameng Passes. In the past two days, after Cheng/main was captured, Ye Zhao even deployed heavy troops at Mianzhu Pass, but Zhang Lu had not moved.
"This person was afraid that he would have made both the lord and Liu Yan lose both, and take advantage of the situation." Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "From his previous attitude towards Zhang Xiu, it is not worth fear."
"Then trap him in Langzhong. Although the terrain is good, it cannot raise too many soldiers." Ye Zhao nodded.
Most of the food and grass in Yizhou are supported by these three counties, and only this area is suitable for large-scale and heavy land. Other places are mostly mountains and rivers, which are not suitable for large-scale farming, so they depend heavily on these three counties. Ye Zhao only needs to take the three counties firmly, so he is not afraid of Zhang Lu causing trouble. In the future, even if Ye Zhao does not attack, he will have to take the initiative to surrender to Ye Zhao over time. Moreover, many aristocratic families also have land in Shu, and Ye Zhao has not moved for the time being, but after this side is completely stable, if these people do not take the initiative to surrender, Ye Zhao will make a fuss about these land.
Of course, the best result is that Zhang Lu can unite the scholars of other counties to resist Ye Zhao, giving Ye Zhao a chance to severely damage the Shu family.
If you choose to surrender, you have to follow Ye Zhao's rules. Ye Zhao is not Liu Yan, he occupied Shu with a strong attitude. At this time, the three counties were in hand, so there was no need to make certain compromises like Liu Yan.
This is his future rear that will sweep the world. Because of the closure, Ye Zhao can use force as an axe and blade and make drastic innovations according to his own ideas.
In the next few days, Ye Zhao was almost busy coordinating the household registration in Shuzhong and the land in his hands this time. In the direction of Chengdu, he also sent some people to the city. The losses of Zhang Liao's troops were within Ye Zhao's tolerance. Originally, these losses were used to attack Chengdu. However, because of Zhao Wei and Ren Qi, Zhang Liao easily captured Chengdu and severely damaged Jianwei's troops. In short, he still made a profit.
"Lord, Jia Long has been outside the mansion for three days. The water has not yet entered, and now he has fallen into a coma." Ye Zhao had just finished processing the case and was stretching his muscles and bones in the yard, but Dian Wei ran in and said to Ye Zhao.
"I'm a little perseverance!" Ye Zhao looked outside the mansion and said, "Let me find someone to carry him in, let the doctor see him, give him some food, don't let him die with me."
"If he wakes up, will he see him?" Dian Wei looked at Ye Zhao and said.
"Let's talk about it when you wake up. If you want to see each other, it's not too late to see you tomorrow." Ye Zhao said.
"Here!" Dian Wei said retreat.
However, this time, Jia Long was in a coma for a long time. He didn't wake up until the next day. After savoring some porridge, he had just recovered some strength and grabbed the hand of the doctor beside him to see Ye Zhao.
This time, Ye Zhao did not make any difficulties. He smiled and came to Jia Long's room and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Qiande so stubborn? I have been busy with official duties these days and have no time to be a clone. Mr. Qiande only needs to wait for two days, so why does this come to this?"
Ye Zhao smiled and took out a bowl of porridge from the doctor's hand, and kindly fed Jia Long himself.
"Since Ye Hou has the intention to govern Shu, he should be convinced by benevolence and righteousness. Why do he commit murder in vain?" Jia Long was extremely excited at this moment and grabbed Ye Zhao's sleeve and said.
"Why did you say this? After I went down to the city, I would not be injustice to the people. As long as the scholars in Shu were willing to surrender, I would be despaired. Could it be that I would like to kneel down and beg for mercy on you and others to beg for mercy?" Ye Zhao raised his sword eyebrows and looked at Jia Long and said.
"I don't have this intention!" Jia Long's heart tightened, and then he calmed down. Now the situation has reversed. It was no longer Ye Zhao begging for support from these Shu clans, but the Shu clans need to ask Ye Zhao to set off a path of life. He turned his posture low: "It's just that I heard that Ji Ling, the general under Ye Hou, had committed slaughter in Jianwei County in vain. In just three days, nearly a thousand scholars were killed. Now more than half a month has passed. Jianwei's gentry may not have one ten!"
"Is there such a thing?" Ye Zhao frowned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at Xi Zhicai and others beside him.
"Go back to the lord, this is indeed true!" Xi Zhicai bowed and said, "Previously, General Zhang Liao captured Chengdu, Ren Qi and Zhao Wei joined forces with Jianwei's scholars to surrender and deceive the city, causing heavy casualties to General Zhang Liao's troops. When General Ji Ling arrived, more than half of the soldiers under General Zhang Liao's command were injured and half of the soldiers under Chengdu were also captured. General Ji Ling attacked Jianwei in anger, but the methods might be a little too fierce. Anyone who participated in this matter was killed and many families were beheaded."
"Nothing!" Ye Zhao slapped the bed and stood up, and said coldly: "Even if there was any, I will kill the evil Zhao Wei, and Ren Qi, how could he be so bloody?"
When Jia Long heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched. He originally wanted to raise an army to ask for punishment, but now Ye Zhao spoke first, and he didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only bow and say, "I hope Ye Hou will pity my Shu Sect's people to survive and let them live a life. I am willing to serve the people in Shu Sect's people and be loyal to Ye Hou, and will never betray them for the rest of my life!"
"Mr. Qiande's words are serious." Ye Zhao grabbed Jia Long, asked them to support him before, and made a fuss with him. Now it is not so easy to surrender to him. He turned to look at Dian Wei on the side and said, "Hurry up to Jianwei and pass on our military orders. Ji Ling in vain to kill him and remove his position as the chief general. On the day of the order, he returned to Hanzhong to think of his mistakes and ordered Zhang Liao to replace Ji Ling. Jianwei's scholars only need to hand over the chief evil Zhao Wei and Ren Qi's head. The rest of the followers will not blame him!"
"Here!" Dian Wei glanced at Jia Long, bowed to take the order, and turned around and left.
