"Virtuous son-in-law, you are ......" Kong Rong said to Liu Xian with some surprise: "You don't want to fight those Yellow Turban Thief Army, right?" ”

"War with the Yellow Turban Bandits? No, no, no, it's impossible to win, there are too many yellow thieves and horses, just with this bit of defenders in Beihai City, how can we fight? Then, those Yellow Turban thieves said that if they dared to start a war with them, they would slaughter the city after they took it. ”

When Liu Jie heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he waved his hand again and again in a panic: "Although the Yellow Army and thieves attacked several of our county towns before, they didn't kill on a large scale, they just entered the city and plundered and then retreated. If we are going to go to war with them, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

What Liu Jie said was actually some truths, the Yellow Turban thieves were powerful, and the officers and soldiers of the county officials below did not dare to resist, and did not dare to start a war with them, and when the thieves came, they dispersed in a hurry and let the thieves enter the city. So the people of the city were afflicted. However, these thieves did not really go on a killing spree, and if they did not meet resistance, they did not kill anyone on sight, but only plundered the money and food of the people in the city and then withdrew from the city. Naturally, many people must have been killed, and many women were killed.

In fact, when the thieves entered the city, the people hid their wives and children, and made a fool of what they could not hide, and when the thieves plundered their homes, they did not resist, and let them take away the money and food from their homes, so that those thieves would not kill people for no reason.

Yellow Turban thief, how do you say this? They are now actually equivalent to the lost dogs, and they have passed their craziest time. If we talk purely from the aspect of human nature, a person, unless he is really the kind of person who is incurable and insane, otherwise, when they do evil and wrong things in passion, they will definitely suffer the condemnation of conscience afterwards, and the human heart is indeed made of flesh, and they are not so evil as to kill people when they see them.

And the most important thing is that the reason why the Yellow Turban Army kills and plunders is for money and food, for medical filling, if they give up the food to them and let them take it, they will indeed not kill people at will. Naturally, if someone has a woman who is too beautiful, but does not know how to hide herself, then he will definitely be seen and harmed.

In those counties that were plundered by the yellow turban thieves, there were really many women, in order to avoid suffering the scourge of thieves, some of them not only blackened their faces, even if they poured feces on their bodies, made themselves stinky and coaxed, and even some would use scissors to scratch their faces and disfigure, so that those thieves lost interest in them.

In any case, the government's inaction, the officers and soldiers do not resist, or it is also a passive means of survival, and it is better to die than to live. It's just that it's the people who suffer, and when the thieves loot and leave, how will the surviving people continue to live? All the money and food are gone, and that is a dead end.

Liu Xian will definitely not compromise with the thief, and it is impossible to adopt these undesirable ways of survival.

Therefore, although Liu Xian called Liu Jie, who was also a member of the Han family, his brother, despised him very much in his heart.

Liu Xian did not take his contempt for Liu Jie on the surface, because he still needed the cooperation of his Taishou.

Liu Xian didn't expect that he would encounter the Yellow Turban thieves when he came to Beihai this time, nor did he expect that there would be such a crisis in Beihai.

Now Liu Xian feels that if Beihai does not have a certain ability to protect itself, then it is unlikely that Beihai will be able to raise his own troops. At least, in the past few years, the realm of the North Sea will definitely be harmed by those thieves.

Therefore, Liu Xian thinks that he has to do something now.

Jizhou, Youzhou, Qingzhou and other places have long been in Liu Xian's development blueprint, and Liu Xian doesn't want to get a dilapidated Beihai with a depression in all industries.

Liu Xian thought about it, and did not call Liu Jie his brother again, but said to Liu Jie with a calm face: "Liu Jie is too guarded, you are very lucky, one, after all, you are also a member of the Han family." Second, he is indeed an official of the imperial court. Third, you don't seem to be the kind of person who is a big traitor, at least in this Beihai City, although you haven't done much, but you haven't done too many evil things, otherwise, with the upright father-in-law of this son, he will definitely disdain to associate with you, and even ask someone to consult you to the court a long time ago, and remove you from your official position. Fourth, at the moment, you can be regarded as having some sincerity in treating this son. Hum! Otherwise. ”

Liu Xian's eyes widened, and his body unnaturally exuded a murderous aura, and shouted: "Otherwise, this son can let your blood splash on the spot now, kill you first, and then ask this son-in-law's father-in-law to preside over Beihai City and organize the army and people to resist the Yellow Turban thieves." Do you believe it or not, if my son kills you, there will be no last thing? ”

Liu Jie felt Liu Xian's murderous aura, and he was so frightened that he trembled, and his fat face kept trembling.

"Liu, Liu Xian's son...... What does this mean? Liu Jie's crying voice was so shocked that he took a few steps back.

Liu Xian is not very old, only a seventeen-year-old teenager, and he looks so handsome and luxurious, and when he drinks and talks, he is so cheerful and cordial. However, suddenly, there was a sharp murderous aura on his body, which became terrifying. Don't say it's Liu Jie, but Kong Rong was secretly taken aback by Liu Xian's temperament change.

"What do you mean?" Liu Xian pointed at Liu Jie and said: "As the guard of a county, I don't want to fight the thieves and destroy the thieves, but I compromise with the thieves, which fuels the arrogance of the thieves." Now the counties under your rule have been plundered by thieves, and the thieves may come to Beihai City at any time. But you didn't have any preparations to prevent thieves, and you didn't even inform the people of Beihai City. You're planning to run away as soon as the thieves come, right? Abandoning more than 100,000 people in Beihai City, and allowing thieves to enter the city to plunder and harm the people, this is your dereliction of duty as the guardian of a county. In fact, it can be said that just based on some of the earlier behaviors of your officials in Beihai County, it is enough to convict you of the crime of collaborating with the enemy and financing the enemy's treason, and raiding your family and exterminating your family! ”

Porphy!

As soon as Liu Xian's words fell, Liu Jie was so frightened that he knelt down.

Obviously, he was hit by Liu Xian's casual guess.

"No, no, I, I didn't think about running away...... No, no, Liu Xian's son, virtuous brother, this, this is the official position of the brother, yes, it is the official position that my brother Liu Xian helped buy. I-I'm this, I'm just thinking about it...... Thinking that being a big official can be more prestigious, really, really stupid brother has no virtue and no talent, so ...... So when the thief came, the foolish brother panicked and didn't know what to do. Liu Xian's son, please spare the foolish brother......" Liu Jie knelt on the ground, desperately pleading, hoping that Liu Xian could let him go.

It was naturally impossible for Liu Xian to kill him, and this was just to scare him.

"Get up and speak!"

Liu Xian drank.

"Oh oh......" Liu Jie hurriedly got up.

Being an official like Liu Jie, not to mention majestic, is simply a nest.

In fact, Liu Jie has only been in office for more than a year, and not long after he took office, the Yellow Turban riot occurred, which really scared him almost to the core. He really wanted to run away all the time.

This guy is better controlled?

Liu Xian's heart moved.

Originally, Liu Xian planned to push Kong Rong out, let Kong Rong develop in advance, and become the lord of Beihai in the future. However, Liu Xian found that he could actually have another operation, perhaps, by controlling this Liu Jie, so as to actually control Beihai, and then let Kong Rong assist him. In this way, Kong Rong may not be able to become the lord of the North Sea in the future, but what does it matter? Anyway, even Kong Rong has to belong to his own account.

Liu Xian's mind moved, and he actually thought of many possible things in his mind.

However, everything has to be done slowly, step by step.

Now, Liu Xian thinks that he must show some colors to the Taishan Yellow Turban Army who are coming, so that they don't dare to invade easily. Then, it is necessary to let Beihai City, as well as the county towns below, each have a certain defensive ability, so that the officers and soldiers will not abandon the city and flee as soon as the thieves come.

"Son-in-law, you ...... Do you have any solution to the crisis in Beihai City? If so, let's say it, see if it's feasible, don't embarrass Liu Jie too much. Kong Rong was a little dumbfounded, Liu Xian scared Liu Jie like this, but Kong Rong saw Liu Xian's sudden and powerful appearance, and he was a little unaccustomed to adapting to it.

"Father-in-law, how can you be afraid of twenty or thirty thousand yellow turban thieves? I think not long ago, I defeated the 50,000 army of the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro, and killed Zhang Niujiao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro. There is a son-in-law, and Beihai is worry-free! ”

Liu Xian first gave Kong Rong a reassurance, taking the example of his defeat of 50,000 Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army not long ago.

Kong Rong had already known about this, but when Liu Jie heard it, his spirit couldn't help but be lifted.

"Yes, virtuous son-in-law, since you can defeat tens of thousands of Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army in Yangshi County and Liulin Village, then maybe you can do it now. However, how many horses did you have at that time? How many horses do we have now? Kong Rong was also in the same spirits, feeling that there was a chance to ensure the safety of Beihai City, so he hurriedly asked.

"If we want to defeat the Yellow Turban Bandits, it is not a question of how many military horses we have, the key is whether we can achieve the unity of the army and the people. No matter how many people the Yellow Turban Army came to attack Beihai City, but we have more than 100,000 people in Beihai City, and this Beihai County is not an ordinary county town, and the city walls are taller, as long as we are prepared, then those Yellow Turban thieves will not easily break through Beihai City. Liu Xian said.

"What does the virtuous son-in-law mean that we will defend the city to the death? In this case...... But it's just a stubborn defense, the Yellow Turban Thief Army is known as hundreds of thousands of people, if this annoys them, they will definitely send an endless stream of troops to attack, and it is unlikely that these people in our Beihai alone will fight against their army, right? You know, we won't have reinforcements, and even if we do, it will be difficult to come to the rescue in a short period of time. ”

"Hehe, I didn't plan to rely on the defense alone, this time I came to Beihai and brought more than 2,000 caravan guards to really defeat the 20,000 or 30,000 thieves, and the more than 2,000 horses of the son-in-law are enough." Liu Xian smiled casually.

Liu Xian's current 2,000 horses are not the original untrained caravan guards. Rather, it is a person who has undergone a certain amount of training. Liu Xian felt that this time might be a test for his own people.

Taking advantage of the favorable terrain, a thousand archers shot and killed those Yellow Turban Army, and then the cavalry and infantry fought again, with Huang Zhong and Wang Yue here, even if Guan Hai came in person, the 20,000 or 30,000 Taishan Yellow Turban Army would definitely lose.

Whether it is the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army or the Taishan Yellow Turban Army, they are probably also afraid of the imperial court officers and soldiers. They dare to come out and make trouble now, it must be that they are really short of food, so they have the courage to come out. If they are really so bold, then they don't use all kinds of means to intimidate and blackmail, and directly send troops to attack, how much food does it cost?

The Taishan Yellow Turban Thieves, in fact, are just powerful goods, and they only need to be given a blow to the head, and they will be defeated immediately.

What's more, what Kong Rong is worried about is that there will be an endless stream of Yellow Turban troops to attack, which is impossible.

You must know that Mount Tai is very large, and the Yellow Turban Army that fled to Mount Tai is basically the king of each mountain, and it is difficult to mobilize. And, in addition to Beihai, there are also government officers and soldiers in Xuzhou, Jinan and other places. Especially in Jinan, it is estimated that Cao Cao is there, and the Taishan Yellow Turban Army will definitely not dare to transfer the main force to this Beihai.

Liu Xian estimated that the Taishan Yellow Turban Army that came out of the mountains to plunder this time may be just one of the Yellow Turban Army, or a tentative attack. If they can defeat them, then they will have to think about the idea of fighting Beihai County next time.

"Son-in-law, then what are we going to do?"

Kong Rong asked again.

Liu Xian put his eyes on Liu Jie's body and said, "Liu Jie is too guarded, whether Beihai will turn the danger into a disaster requires your full cooperation." If you can defeat the attacking Taishan Yellow Turban Army this time, you will destroy these two or thirty thousand thieves. Then all the credit is yours. In this way, not only are you not guilty, but you also have merit, and in this way, your official position as the Taishou of Beihai can be regarded as truly sitting firmly. ”

"Can you really defeat the attacking Taishan Yellow Turban Army?" Liu Jie's heart was really scared, because listening to Liu Xian's meaning, this is true, he really wants to go to war with the Taishan Yellow Turban Army, his heart is full of ups and downs.

"How can there be 100% things in this world? But there are things to do and things to do. Whether we can defeat the Yellow Turbans is a matter of time, but we have to work hard to do it! Now, you have summoned all the officials of the Beihai Prefecture Government, including the generals of the unified army. Without further ado, we're going to have to set it up right away. ”

Liu Xian said to Liu Jie undoubtedly, at this time, Liu Xian also completely grasped the initiative to speak.

Liu Jie hurriedly complied.

While the officials of the Beihai County Government had not yet arrived, Liu Xian said to Liu Jie and Kong Rong: "There are some things that you don't have to wait for those officials to come, you have to do them first." First of all, it is necessary to issue a notice in the name of the government, so that the people of Beihai County know the current situation, and let the people know that several counties in Beihai County have been attacked by the Taishan Yellow Turban Thieves, and they may be killed in Beihai City at any time. ”
