Chapter 481 The Prefect of Twenty-Four County (Part 2)


    Chapter 480: The Prefect of Twenty-Four County (Part 2)


    The five major governors of the Yellow Turbans were divided into the five prefectures, but what these five people wanted to do the same thing, that is, unify their own jurisdiction.


    Except for Zhang Sheng who controls Yanzhou, none of the five governors occupied one state, and Hong Xiuquan was the one who was the worst.


    Qingzhou has two counties and four countries, and Huang Chao has one county and three countries, namely: Jinan, Le''an, Donglai, and Qi;


    Jizhou has three counties and six states, and Dou Jiande has two counties and two states, namely: Julu, Anping, Zhao and Zhongshan;


    Yuzhou has two counties and four countries, and Li Mi has four countries, namely: Liang, Pei, Chen and Lu;


    Xuzhou has two counties and three kingdoms, and Fang La has one county and two kingdoms, namely: Donghai, Langya, and Guangling;


    Yangzhou has six counties under its jurisdiction, while Hong Xiuquan has only two counties in Danyang, Yuzhang and several counties in Jiangbei. The real essence of Yangzhou is still in the hands of the Han army.


    As a great disciple of a great wise and good teacher, Hong Xiuquan naturally couldn''t sit still.


    Hong Xiuquan urgently needed achievements to prove himself, so Hong Xiuquan was deceived by a simple bewitching of the hundreds of schools.


    After the war with Yangzhou governor Liu Yao, Hong Xiuquan won four battles and captured Huainan.


    Liu Yao''s vulnerability surprised Hong Xiuquan, and even saw the dawn of unifying Yangzhou, so how could he listen to Zhang Sheng and honestly retreat to Jiangbei?


    After receiving the imperial edict, Hong Xiuquan burned it after reading it.


    This little girl really treats herself as the emperor. In fact, it is just a puppet that has been temporarily launched by Master and temporarily stabilized the situation. It’s just a dream to make me Hong Xiuquan obey my orders! Hong Xiuquan sneered.


    Others don’t know Zhang Sheng’s identity. How can Hong Xiuquan, as Zhang Jiao’s eldest disciple, still not know? It’s just that Zhang Sheng is not exposed because the Yellow Turban really needs her, but this does not mean that Hong Xiuquan will be loyal to a woman.


    Although there are not many people who know Zhang Sheng’s identity, there are also many people. They tacitly understand that the reason they didn’t reveal was basically the same as Hong Xiuquan.


    Under this strange tacit understanding, how long can Zhang Sheng’s identity be kept secret? No one knows.


    In the Yangzhou side, Hong Xiuquan directly ignored Zhang Sheng''s order and continued to lead the army south.


    The situation in Li Mi in Yuzhou is similar to that in Hong Xiuquan.


    However, although they are all against the order, Li Mi''s superficial work is much better. At least he found a reason, in terms of face, it was over.


    In fact, although Li Mi occupies the four countries, she is only slightly better than Hong Xiuquan.


    The real essence of Yuzhou is in Runan and Yingchuan counties. Among the 98 counties in the whole prefecture, these two counties account for 54 counties. Liang, Chen and Lu among the four countries are not big countries, and the only one that is better is Pei.


    Yingchuan is the base camp of Confucianism, so the situation is quite special. The Han army did not place many garrisons, and the Yellow Turban also deliberately avoided the Confucian problem, so Yingchuan has always been in a state of autonomy.


    As for Runan, when Xiang Yu went south to Jingzhou, Li Mi had already taken down and **** the Yuan family''s forces. However, after Xiang Yu was defeated, Yuan Shu took the opportunity to counterattack Runan.


    Runan was originally the territory of the Yuan family. Yuan Shu came back and was like the owner going home. The county magistrates who had surrendered all turned against each other. In this way, Yuan Shu easily recaptured more than 30 counties in Runan.


    After Xiang Yu was defeated, Qin Hao only captured several counties such as Fancheng Xinye in Wancheng to open up a channel to Sizhou, so most of the county towns in Nanyang were still in the hands of the Yellow Turbans.


    Li Mi originally wanted to incorporate Nanyang, but after Runan was occupied by Yuan Shu, Nanyang naturally became an enclave.


    The temptation of this piece of fat piece of Nanyang is too great. With Yuan Shu''s aggressiveness, Li Mi, who has always been calm, has lost her mind, and even ignored whether she can swallow it.


    After Yuan Shu conquered Runan, although he did not fail to defend himself, he wanted to preserve his strength, so he asked the court for help.


    When the Han Dynasty learned that the Yellow Turbans had divided their troops into two groups and attacked again so quickly, they also felt great pressure.


    The Hu disaster in the north has not been resolved yet, and the Yellow Turban disaster has occurred again.


    Faced with the Ming Dynasty''s active attack, the Dahan couldn''t accept it. The spring grain was just collected, and the Han Dynasty would not be unable to send troops. Of course, it was just impossible to support too large-scale.


    However, it is not enough to send reinforcements alone. Once the reinforcements leave the local defense is still a big problem.


    In desperation, Liu Hong had to conduct a third enthronement in advance, and most of the enthronements were the prefects of the south.


    First of all, there is the problem in Yangzhou.


    Liu Yao really doesn''t know how to lead the army. Faced with Hong Xiuquan''s repeated defeats, Liu Hong had to provide him with some helpers.


    Sun Jian performed outstandingly in the Battle of the Yellow Turbans, and he was originally from Jiangdong, so he was named Wucheng Hou.


    In addition, in the battle between Liu Yao and Hong Xiuquan, if Lu Kang had not led the army in time, Liu Yao might have been wiped out.


    Therefore, Lu Kang, a famous scholar in Jiangdong, was named the title of the prefect of Lujiang by Liu Hong, while Wang Lang, the doctor, was named the prefect of Kuaiji.


    Yangzhou is far away from Luoyang, while Yuzhou is close to you.


    Luoyang has been defeated by the Yellow Turban once, so Liu Hong would never allow it. The Ming Dynasty extended its sphere of influence to the bottom of its nose.


    Yuan Shu made contributions to defeating the Yellow Turbans and taking Runan. He was named the title of the prefect of Runan. He ordered him to block Li Mi tightly and wait for reinforcements in the court.


    As for the candidates for reinforcements, Liu Hong chose Cao Cao among the generals in Luoyang.


    It’s not that Liu Hong distrusts Qin Hao, but that Qin Hao has made too much contribution. Liu Hong is still having a headache about how to reward this son-in-law, so naturally he will not let him continue to lead the army.


    In this battle against the Yellow Turbans, Cao Cao''s performance was second only to Qin Wen, Dong Zhuo and Qin Hao, so he was not only named the leader general, but also awarded the position of prefect of Yingchuan and was also granted the title of Marquis of Yangdi.


    Cao Cao was responsible for his important tasks when he went to Yuzhou this time. All the prefects before, including the prefects, led their troops to take office, and he was the only prefect who "killed" the troops of the court to take office.


    After the seal of Yuzhou, Liu Hong enthroned Xuzhou and Jingzhou.


    Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, protected the Xia Pi and Pengcheng counties and appointed him as the governor of Xuzhou. This was also born as the ninth prefect of the Han Dynasty.


    Chen Gui, a famous scholar in Xuzhou, assisted Tao Qian to repel the Yellow Turbans several times, so he was named the prefect of Pengcheng.


    Jingzhou already had a prefecture governor, so Liu Hong only enthroned the prefects of each county.


    Huang Zu was the prefect of Jiangxia;


    Han Xuan was the prefect of Changsha;


    Jin Xuan was the prefect of Wuling;


    Zhao Fan was the prefect of Guiyang;


    Liu Du was the prefect of Lingling;


    As for the largest Nanyang County in Jingzhou, it is close to Sizhou, but is still under the control of the Yellow Turbans, so it must be recovered as soon as possible.


    As for the candidate for the prefect of Nanyang, Liu Hongshe thought about it and finally decided to grant his son-in-law Qin Hao.


    Liu Hong was quite satisfied with Qin Hao''s son-in-law, and Qin Hao made such a great contribution this time, so he really had to give a generous reward.


    Liangzhou is still in quelling the rebellion, so Liu Hong missed it, and Yizhou was granted several heroes to be the prefect for its stability.


    After three enthrones, Liu Hong granted the title of the governor of nine provinces and twenty-four prefects. At this point, all the prefects and counties of the Han Dynasty had masters, and the era of princes officially began.


    ?There are still some princes in the local area because they are not divided enough territory. However, after regaining some of the lands in Guandong, those princes will still come out, and Liuxiang will try to follow the original history.
