Chapter 62: After the Meeting

Huishi, it was naturally a lot of fun. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

As the county governor of Julu County of the Han Dynasty, it has been recovered by the official army at this time. The county town that fell to the hands of the Yellow Turban Army was tragically plundered by the Yellow Turban Army, and its prosperity did not recover until this moment.

The people in the city felt the depression in the market, and naturally hated the evil deeds of the Yellow Turban Army in their hearts, and they were even more enthusiastic about Liu Beijun, who was ordered to come to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army. While entertaining Liu Beijun, they also asked Liu Bei about Guangzong's situation with concern.

At this time, the situation in Julu County was as follows: the official army and the Yellow Turban Army were fighting in Guangzong, and the county towns west of Guangzong had been recovered by the official army, while several counties north of Guangzong were still under the control of the Yellow Turban Army.

As the county governor of Julu County, although the Tao was recovered by the official army, due to the narrow administrative territory of Julu County, the connection between the Tao and the Guangzong front line was really not smooth, and a lot of information had to be circulated through the Zhao State, which made the officials in the Tao a little uncomfortable.

In addition, the actions of the Yellow Turban Army in the border area of the three counties a few days ago made the connection between Liao Tao and the outside world almost severed, so the people in the city urgently need to know about the outside world. One of the most critical is how the front line of Gwangjong fought. Whether the officers and the army won or lost.

There is absolutely no shortage of smart people in the world, and Li Qin can analyze the criticality of the battle of Guangzong to the Great Han, while others may not be so quick to think of it, but after all, they can come to a similar conclusion based on the judgment of various intelligence. Since the Battle of Gwangjong was so crucial, it was inevitable that they would pay attention to it.

Liu Bei is a kind person, and in the face of everyone's doubts, Liu Bei naturally gave comfort with kind words. He couldn't say much about some key things, but the confidence shown between his words made everyone feel a little more at ease.

When Li Qin led the troops to join Liu Bei, Liu Bei, who had arrived in Liao Tao for two days, showed Li Qin such a picture of harmony between guests and hosts.

"Looks like the lord is doing well here." Li Qin came, and Liu Bei got rid of the invitation of those leading figures in the city to meet him. As soon as they met each other, Li Qin smiled and joked with Liu Bei.

"Alas...... You only see my laughter, but you don't see my vomiting blood...... I'm really not used to this kind of thing. For Li Qin's ridicule, Liu Bei smiled bitterly.

"Huh...... So, my lord, you need to exercise well. It would be better if you could go to Runan, but if you go to Jiujiang or Danyang, you will have to live like this for a while. There are a lot of families in Jiujiang and Danyang. Hearing Liu Bei's complaint, Li Qin chuckled lightly and immediately admonished Liu Bei.

"Well, I understand......" Listening to Li Qin's admonition, Liu Bei nodded, indicating that he had written down this experience. After such a greeting had passed, Liu Bei introduced to Li Qin the two heroes who had recently joined his army: "This is Yan Liang, and that is Wen Chou." It's all my generals this time. Yan Liang is a member of the Yan family fort we saved last time, because we reconquered the Yan family fort, so he joined our army. Wen Chou is his friend...... Yuan Hua, don't look at the two of them with strange appearances, but their ability is not small, and their strength is not below the second and third brothers. ”

Liu Bei said with a smile, he was afraid that his military advisor had not heard of the names of these two people, and he did not like them because of their hideous faces, so he emphatically introduced them.

"Yan Liang, Wen Chou......" Liu Bei said this, and Li Qin's eyes lit up suddenly.

Others may not know much about these two ugly men, where would Li Qin not know the strength of these two: the story of Guan Erye's beheading of Yan Liang and Zhu Wenchou has been passed down for more than 2,000 years. Li Qin had heard of it since he was a child. Although in the story, these two are the goods that were locked up by the second master, but everyone knows that it was just an accident that happened under specific circumstances.

As far as Yan Liang is concerned, this is a fierce man who has defeated Zhang Liao and Xu Huang in a row, and his strength is undoubtedly not to be underestimated. And Wen Chou's strength is even higher than Yan Liang. Liu Bei said that the kung fu of the two was not under Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, which was really not nonsense.

For the two heroes recruited by Liu Bei, although Li Qin was a little disappointed, they were not the heroic young generals with white horses and silver spears from Changshan Zhending, but thinking of their own power, Li Qin was still overjoyed.

At that moment, he stepped out, walked in front of Wen Chou and Yan Liang, bowed down to them, and said earnestly: "The two heroes can join the lord's command, I am very grateful. I am sure that in the future, you will not regret your choice today. ”

"Hehe......" Yan Liang and Wen Scandal opened their mouths and laughed happily.

Wen Chou doesn't need to say much, even Yan Liang only came to Liu Bei with a heart to repay his kindness at first. His heart is very simple, and he doesn't have so many ideas. But a few days after joining Liu Beijun, especially after communicating with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were also brave, they completely fell in love with the team and recognized Liu Bei, the main man.

In this way, everyone can be regarded as knowing each other.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Qin reported to Liu Bei on his achievements and explained that he had escorted the Yellow Turban Army's prisoners and looted supplies here.

"Alas...... I knew Yuanhua, you were like this. It's a good thing to take in the captives, but it's also a problem for us right now. Liu Bei sighed: "Not only that, you have taken in the captives, but my second brother and I have also taken in a lot." Now that there are more than 10,000 captives in our army, they have just surrendered, and we have to spare our men to keep an eye on them, which will be very detrimental to our next battle. There's no way I'm going to hand them over to Lord Huangfu......"

Liu Bei was very embarrassed by this. According to the original rules, it was natural to hand over the captives to the rear, but at the moment Liu Bei would never do so. Because Huang Fu Song will kill them - kill the thieves and captives to tell the world, Huang Fu Song loves to do this kind of thing. He thinks that this can be powerful.

Can it really stand tall?

Liu Bei didn't think so, under the influence of Li Qin, he naturally couldn't watch these people die openly because he didn't like such brutal killings, so he could only keep these prisoners in the army. But it's not a thing to keep betting like this, especially when there are follow-up combat missions to be completed on your side. Liu Bei had a headache about this.

"What should I do......?" In the past two days, Liu Bei discussed this issue with Xi Zhicai and Liu Ye many times, but after all, he did not come up with a satisfactory answer.

After seeing the sins of the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Bei couldn't do anything to kill these people, but Liu Bei also felt inappropriate to let them go. There was no way, he could only ask Li Qin about this matter.

"It's very simple, let Xianhe and Zhou Cang stay here with a thousand officers and soldiers to guard, hold an auction, and sell these yellow turban captives and pull them down. Of course, if one of them is willing to follow us, we will naturally take it. If you don't want to, sell it to those powerful people as slaves. Li Qin came up with an idea that was not too good, but not too bad: "By the way, these materials we have collected, if we can find the owner, we will return it, but if the owner is gone, then sell it on the spot." Now that we are following Lord Huangfu, we don't have to worry about grain and grass, what we need is copper coins. After all, ...... in the future"

Li Qin didn't continue, but Liu Bei also understood the meaning.

"This ......" Liu Bei thought about the pros and cons, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay!" Just do as you say......"

As for what kind of abuse the Yellow Turban Army prisoners who were sold would encounter in the main family, Liu Bei said that it had nothing to do with him.

It's better to die than to live, let them live, this is already the greatest kindness. Liu Bei is a benevolent person, but his benevolence does not come from everyone. The things that the Yellow Turban Army did, Liu Bei really saw in his eyes. He also has a lot of anger in his heart about this group of violent thieves.

Eventually, the matter of the captives was decided. Xi Zhicai and Liu Ye discussed some more details in it, and then gently revealed the matter.

Next, what everyone had to discuss was how to deal with the grain and grass collection team in the north of the Yellow Turban Army.

"What's the news about this passer-by now?" To deal with the enemy, it is necessary to first find out the enemy's intelligence, which Li Qin told Liu Bei. Liu Bei kept it in mind, and when he encountered a problem, the first thing he said was often such a sentence.

"Yesterday's news, they have gone south to conquer Hanchang...... They sneaked into the Zhongshan Kingdom, and after plundering, they went south with great fanfare. It is said that the southern part of Zhongshan Province has been destroyed by them. Xi Zhicai told the information in his hand. Responsible for intelligence work, this is his main responsibility in Liu Beijun.

"Hanchang...... Hanchang to the south is not extreme. To the south is Xiaquyang, which is another stronghold of the Yellow Turban Army in Julu County, after which they can transport things from Xiaquyang to Nanluan and Guangzong. Xiaquyang and Nanluan are their territories, and the safety of transportation is relatively guaranteed. Li Qin said analytically.

"Nanluan? Nanluan is close to the mainland Ze...... Its topography is more complex. Now in the middle of summer, the reeds are thick, and I think we can lurk there and ambush the Yellow Turbans halfway! The resourceful Liu Ye put forward his own opinion.

"Ambush troops on the mainland? By water? Li Qin immediately saw the key to Liu Ye's method. He was noncommittal about this, and only asked Liu Ye another question: "Can the ships of the mainland Ze support the crossing of our army?" ”

"What's this?" Liu Ye is stuck, he doesn't know much about this detail.

"This needs to be investigated!" Liu Ye said.

"I'm afraid we don't have that much time." Li Qin shook his head lightly: "Once the Yellow Turban Army enters Xiaquyang, they will be able to get the support of Xiaquyang, all the way to the people, soldiers and horses escort, in the case of the assembly of soldiers, it is more difficult for us to forcibly ambush." And Nanluan is too close to the mainland. ”

"And what can you do?" Liu Ye looked at Li Qin with burning eyes, and his words were a little unconvinced.

"I think, how about we take the opportunity to take down Quyang? If we move fast...... It should be possible to take down Quyang before the enemy reaches Wuji. At that time, as long as we do a good job of secrecy, we can wait directly for the passers-by to come to the door. Li Qin came up with his own solution.

"From Xiatao to Xiaquyang, but it is farther than from Hanchang to Wuji." Liu Ye seized the loophole in Li Qin's strategy.

"It's a little farther, but I believe in the feet of our lieutenant generals. And don't we still have Zhang Chao's cavalry...... We can put on a show. In addition, it is precisely because it is relatively far from Xiatao to Xiaquyang, so the Yellow Turban Army generally does not think that we can catch up, and this is our opportunity. Li Qin said with a smile.

"This ......" Liu Ye thought about it carefully, and finally nodded: "Okay!" That's doable! After thinking about it, he also approved of Li Qin's strategy.

"Well...... Then act according to Yuanhua's strategy! "Now that Liu Ye and Li Qin have reached a consensus, Liu Bei has nothing to hesitate about. He eventually gave the order.
