"One hundred thousand Yellow Turbans, defeated in an instant, how magnificent!"
On the city wall, Liu Yan, looking towards the wilderness, slapped the wall hard.
The battle was gradually coming to an end.
The two teams of cavalry plus the infantry, wherever they went, the Yellow Turban rebels died or surrendered.
One hundred thousand Yellow Turbans sounded like a large number.
But when the real battle broke out, they collapsed at the first touch.
However, Liu Yan knew very well in his heart that if there was no deer cart to lure the enemy before, the cavalry would create a huge momentum and shatter the confidence of the Yellow Turban soldiers.
They would definitely not win so easily.
No matter how loose the hundred thousand people were, they could gather some capable men.
"Follow me out of the city!"
Liu Yan turned around and hurried into the city, "Let's go to welcome the heroes who won the battle together!"
In the wilderness, Liu Yu ordered three commanders to take the village soldiers to divide the surrendered Yellow Turban captives into small groups and gather them together separately.
All the weapons and farm tools scattered on the ground were collected.
Don't give the Yellow Turbans a chance to revive again.
Gongsun Zan also issued an order to clean up the battlefield. The Youzhou cavalry was busy, and he drove his horse to the infantry alone.
"Chengzhi, how are you!"
Before the people arrived, Gongsun Zan's hearty voice had already sounded.
Liu Yu turned his head and smiled, "Congratulations to the Cavalry Commander!"
He bowed his hands and saluted, "We have won such a great victory and brought peace to Youzhou."
"It is definitely not something that ordinary people can do."
"Chengzhi, you are too kind!" Gongsun Zan, who was galloping, reined in his horse, turned over and jumped off, and the action was done in one go.
"I knew it was not Gongsun Yue's idea."
"Such a clever trick to lure the enemy must have been guided by a master."
"I never thought that this master was you, Liu Chengzhi."
"Go, go!"
He stretched out his hand and grabbed Liu Yu's arm, "I'll take you to see the governor."
Before Gongsun Zan finished speaking, several fast horses ran out of the city and headed towards the infantry.
"Okay." Gongsun Zan's sharp eyes saw the Youzhou governor who was leading the way.
"I'm afraid the governor who cherishes talents can't wait to see you."
Boom!
The cavalry galloped and arrived in a flash.
Liu Yu looked up and saw a man with gray hair and a goatee returning to dismount.
"Is the person coming here Liu Yu Liu Chengzhi from Tiezhuang?"
Liu Yan walked forward excitedly, came to Gongsun Zan, and asked.
"I am Liu Chengzhi, and I pay my respects to the governor." Liu Yu was respectful and polite.
"Yes!" Liu Yan looked him up and down, his eyes brightened.
Gongsun Zan quickly said, "Abandoning the deer cart in the wilderness just now to lure the enemy was Liu Chengzhi's idea."
"Oh?" Liu Yan looked surprised, "I thought it was Bogui's brother who came up with this plan."
"How could he do that with his wooden head?" Gongsun Zan sneered.
Liu Yan smiled, but his mind was flashing.
How did Liu Chengzhi make friends with Gongsun Zan and even return the credit that was delivered to the other's brother's door to Liu Yu?
Liu Yan, who had been in the officialdom for most of his life, smelled a different meaning.
This young man will definitely get things done.
He must be the best in dealing with people.
Liu Yan turned his head and looked around.
In the wilderness, the three strong commanders were gathering the Yellow Turban captives with their infantry.
The speed of execution was much faster than that of the Youzhou cavalry.
If he didn't know that these infantry were militiamen from Tiezhuang, he would have thought they were the imperial guards of Luoyang.
Extremely elite!
Liu Yan turned around and suddenly asked: "Since Chengzhi's surname is Liu, which branch of the royal family is he from?"
"Alas!" Liu Yu sighed lightly, his face gloomy.
"I am the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, but my family fell into poverty and I became homeless."
"It was only when I arrived in Tiezhuang that I found a place to settle down."
Liu Yan sighed: "Chengzhi is young, but he has made great achievements in all aspects."
"Although his family fell into poverty, it is not difficult for him to rise again with his own efforts."
Then he changed the subject.
"Since Chengzhi is also from the royal family, you and I can call each other uncle and nephew from now on."
"There are many clans in the world."
"But there are very few people as capable as Chengzhi."
"In the future, you should do your best to serve the court."
"It should be your lifelong pursuit."
"Uncle is right, nephew will keep it in mind." Liu Yu saluted respectfully.
Gongsun Zan was speechless on the side.
What kind of treatment is it to be recognized as uncle and nephew by the relatives of the Han Dynasty and local officials when they met for the first time?
There are many people with the surname Liu in the world.
But I have never seen anyone favored by the governor.
This is enough to see the importance of Liu Yu.
With the promotion of the governor, it is impossible for Liu Yu not to soar to the sky!
Liu Yu took advantage of"Uncle, the number of households in Tiezhuang has exceeded 3,000, reaching 5,000. I beg you to build a county."
"Five thousand households?" Liu Yan raised his eyebrows. The words from Liu Yu surprised him.
"When the Cavalry Captain returned last time, he said that there were not many people in your Tiezhuang."
"Why did it suddenly become so many?"
"Of course it's because of the good governance of Liu Zhuang." Gongsun Zan said: "The people around heard the news and rushed to serve Tiezhuang."
"It turns out that my nephew not only knows how to control the craftsmen to forge iron, but also knows the art of local governance. Not bad." Liu Yan felt more satisfied.
His eyes fell on Liu Yu and looked back and forth.
The young man in front of him was outstanding in appearance, temperament, and figure.
Even though he was a big official and had seen countless people, he had never seen such an excellent young man in all aspects.
With such conditions, it would be impossible for him to have no achievements in the future.
Those senior officials in the court would probably like him very much if they met him once.
Liu Yan thought for a moment, put his hands behind his back, and asked calmly: "Has my nephew ever taken in a Yellow Turban before?"
Gongsun Zan secretly shook his head at Liu Yu, indicating that he couldn't say it.
In this matter, I don't know what the governor is thinking.
It's better to be conservative than to do it in vain.
Liu Yu ignored Gongsun Zan's hint and nodded in response: "Reply to uncle, I did take him in."
"Three thousand Yellow Turban soldiers attacked Tiezhuang before, and then ten thousand Yellow Turbans were defeated in Zhuo County."
"They were all taken in by my nephew and his men."
"Get rid of the bad guys and keep the homeless people."
"That's why the population of Tiezhuang can increase rapidly."
Gongsun Zan sighed secretly, the owner of Tiezhuang is still too young.
The Yellow Turban captives are very involved. If the court knows about it, they will blame us. It will be a big crime.
After a long pause, Liu Yan nodded, "What my nephew did is a blessing for the people of Youzhou."
"Alas!" He sighed and looked at the wilderness.
"During the years of famine, the wind and rain were not favorable, causing the people to lose their homes and have no food to eat."
"If this continues, it will have an indelible impact on the national strength of our Han Dynasty."
"Population has always been the most important thing for the court."
"My nephew did not kill the Yellow Turbans indiscriminately, and he could distinguish between the good and the bad. It is really rare."
Changing the subject, Liu Yan suddenly said: "With the current achievements of Tiezhuang, it should be appointed as a county magistrate!"
