Chapter 33: The Star Yellow Turban Can Fire the Prairies
Seeing that the archer was reluctant to talk more about the past, Guan Yu was not annoyed.
After all, Guan Yu's temper is that he likes to mingle with the grassroots, not to mention that he himself has been a fugitive from the rivers and lakes for several years, and he knows the unspeakable pain.
So he said very gently: "It is true that the government does not look at the background, but there must be a background, who is your surname, and who is the person, this has to be said." ”
The archer thought for a while, and arched his hand and said: "In Xia Tai Shi Ci, a person from Donglai, he died in the rivers and lakes for some reason, and the rest of the lieutenants are asked not to ask more." ”
"It turned out to be a dead river, what is this, now in this world, there are a lot of injustices! Eight years ago, when I was nineteen years old, I killed a large family in Hedong, my hometown, and I went into exile for two or three years before I had to make friends with the prince of the government and make contributions to the country's killing of thieves.
The prince of the palace has always been the most willing to protect the chivalrous warriors who are outlawed, and I am such a guilty body, and now I am not also an official residence captain and a marquis of the Guan, and I can be regarded as a glorious ancestor. Taishi Zhuangshi, I think your arrow book is extraordinary, but you can have a table word, and you can match the words in the future, you don't have to worry about the level of your official position, as for what you have done before, it doesn't matter at all. ”
Guan Yu's attitude can be described as a great joy. Liu Bei and Li Su, who were watching coldly from the sidelines, were a little speechless.
Alas, Guan Yu's temper, when he heard that he was a wanted criminal, he was even more excited, and he didn't know when he could change it.
It can only be said that it is everyone's path dependence, whoever makes Guan Yu himself suffer enough from a wanted criminal, every wanted criminal is a generous and heroic person.
Tai Shi Ci couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard Guan Yu take care of such a big package and expose his past, and hurriedly answered: "I never thought that Du Wei would have such an experience, but Ci is too stubborn, in the following table, he is 21 years old this year."
Originally a county official of Donglai, because of some sins in handling state and county affairs, he crossed the sea to avoid disaster. Since the prince and the lieutenant can take refuge, they should tell each other if they have any questions. ”
"It turned out to be Taishi Ziyi, I am Liu Bei, and when I go to Liaodong, I don't have to worry about the disgrace of the official face." Liu Bei, who was behind him, spoke up and greeted Tai Shici.
Guan Yu hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Brother came to inspect, how can I not know that it will be a word, at noon, I heard Yide say that the eldest brother was going to entertain the famous man Guan Ning, and I thought that I would not come to the school to patrol the camp today." ”
Guan Yu is diametrically opposed to Zhang Fei in dealing with celebrities and celebrities, and especially looks down on Guan Ning's kind of work that engages in vain etiquette.
So when he heard that Liu Bei entertained Guan Ning, he wished that he would hide far away alone and train his troops frantically, so that today's soldiers are very hard and have to bear the extra resentment of Captain Guan Du.
Otherwise, Guan Yu would not personally supervise the archery assessment of the warriors among the recruits, and wanted to select the best of the best to find a few talents, everything can only be said to be a coincidence.
And Tai Shici joined the army, in fact, it has been four or five days, and at the beginning, he was just coming to nowhere to stay, and he wanted to find a place to eat, and then slowly think about it in the long run.
Seeing Liu Bei and Li Su, Tai Shici also hurriedly saluted: "Meet the prince." ”
Liu Bei immediately held the other party's elbow: "Don't be polite, the troubled times are the time when heroes make meritorious contributions, and it is not enough to be a celebrity, talented and ambitious, and you can't go anywhere in the world!" ”
Tai Shici: "Thank you for your encouragement." ”
Liu Bei pulled Tai Shici to the side and sat down, looking very close to the people: "Ziyi just said that he came here to avoid trouble because he encountered official negligence in Donglai. You might as well say it in detail, since you have arrived in Liaodong, as long as you serve the country and kill the enemy, there will always be a chance to come again. ”
Tai Shici saw that Liu Bei was so disregarding his status and being a corporal of courtesy, so he completely explained: "I am originally a county official of Donglai, and everything should be entrusted by the king. Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiaohe and Donglai Taishou Tang Tao were already at odds, and in the past two years, whenever there was an omission in local government affairs, they often competed to look at Luoyang to present a recital and blame each other.
This time, it was the early spring ploughing season, and the Wusu Hu Cavalry of Taishan County and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army spread to the territory of Donglai, causing trouble. Tang Taishou couldn't defend it, so he could only watch the Yellow Turban cross the border and plunder it, and he was afraid that Jiao Thorn Shi would spread the Yellow Turban sin rules to him.
Send me to the capital as soon as possible, and rush to the messenger of the assassin before the messenger of the assassination...... Push the credit. However, Donglai is located in the eastern part of Qingzhou, and the road to Luoyang is more distant than that of the state. When I hurried to Luoyang, I found that the messenger had already arrived at the same post house and was waiting to present the stamps in order.
For fear of losing the trust of the king, I had to pretend to be the person who received the seal of the imperial court, deceived the messenger of the emperor to take out the seal, seized and tore it up, and threatened him to die for fear of the crime of destroying the watch, so that I was able to submit the seal of the prince of the palace to the province before the envoy. However, I myself was convicted of this, and knowing that I could not recover my life, I crossed Shamen Island and came to Liaodong to die. ”
The Shamen Island mentioned in Tai Shici's mouth is the Miaodao archipelago between the Shandong Peninsula and the Liaodong Peninsula in later generations.
This place has been called Shamen since the Qin and Han dynasties, and I have seen ancient times such as the Sui and Tang dynasties and the Water Margin, and I am generally not unfamiliar with this place name, because this is the place where the most serious felons were exiled in the past dynasties.
This place is also the Han Dynasty from Donglai to Liaodong must pass through the sea, the middle of the chain of islands hidden, are the world's most nowhere to go dangerous outlaws, almost all of them have more than one life in the case.
It was only because of Tai Shici's crime that he dared to land in Liaodong. The worst sins are fishing on the island, and they will never re-enter the mainland for the rest of their lives.
After listening to this, Liu Bei couldn't comment on Tai Shici's actions, but comforted him with two sentences, "This is all a trivial matter, since it was entrusted by others to be loyal to people, it should also be."
But then, Liu Bei couldn't help but complain a few words about Qingzhou Thorn History and Donglai Taishou: "Jiao Thorn History and Tang Taishou act like this, is it a blessing for the people?" Qingzhou yellow turbans are overflowing, plagiarizing places, and what is the use of passing the buck? You should focus on how to eradicate the yellow scarf! ”
Li Su was more calm, he didn't comment on this matter immediately, but compared the history carefully in his heart, and roughly deduced the butterfly effect changes in this - in general, the butterfly effect is not obvious, and it can only be seen from the careful reading of the biographies of the characters in the Three Kingdoms Chronicles of the glorious past dynasties like him.
According to the original trajectory of historical development, this Tai Shi Ci should also come to Liaodong to avoid trouble, and the reason is also for the state and county magistrates to take the blame in the competition for the court's recital-
Because the government was relatively lazy at that time, if one of the states or counties had already explained the situation on the same matter, and the second unit's recital was sent again, most of the provincial authorities would not look at it in detail, but thought that "this matter has already been dealt with, and multiple yamen have repeatedly reported the same thing."
Therefore, whoever arrives first will have a huge benefit, and can push the pot to the other party, which can also see how serious the disadvantages of laziness in the late Han Dynasty are.
However, in history, Tai Shici should not have come to Liaodong so early, so the butterfly effect is reflected here - because Liu Bei intercepted Zhang Ju and forced Wusu to Mount Tai to be a rogue, and also forced the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to become bigger a few months earlier than the same period in history.
Therefore, this time, the reason why Tai Shi Ci had to take a risk to destroy the Assassin Shi chapter became "Assassin Shi and Taishou dumped each other in order to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from flowing". Otherwise, Tai Shici should be able to work for a year and a half, and then take the blame for other things.
It can only be said that everything is fate.
Li Suzheng didn't have a chance to persuade Liu Bei not to be satisfied with the status quo, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, don't blindly blame Tang Taishou and Jiao Thorn Shi, the rise of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, the seed is still the 1,000 Hu cavalry of Wusu under Zhang Ju's command."
After all, we drove thieves out of the country back then. It's just that I didn't expect that Wusu, who was beaten all over the ground in Youzhou, could be so troubled when he arrived in Qingzhou. Brother has the heart of loving the people, and when Zhang Chun is the head here, why not advise the king, use Mi Zhu's fleet, cross the strait to Donglai, Beihai to fight thieves.
Even if the Qingzhou Yellow Turban thieves are too powerful to be defeated. Killing Wusu can be regarded as a good beginning and a good end, so as not to leave people with the notoriety of our Youzhou generals driving thieves out of the country and letting them harm other states. ”
Liu Bei raised his eyebrows: "Cross the border to fight thieves?" Will it be a taboo in the court? ”
Li Su: "Of course I have to ask for my life, and I don't have to rush for a while, making the king the first state pastor in the world is originally set up for the court to act cheaply and eliminate evil." For the thief army that originated in Youzhou and escaped from the state, of course, it has the right to pursue. However, it is necessary to grasp the degree, once Wusu is killed, it is better to return to Liaodong and obey the arrangements of the imperial court. ”
When Tai Shi Ci heard this, he couldn't help but admire him, bowed to Liu Bei, and said with emotion: "Ci has been an official for three years since he was eighteen years old, and he has seen that the local shepherd is afraid of thieves like tigers, and he shirks his responsibility. I have never seen a loyal and righteous elder who took the initiative to cross the border to help the friendly army kill thieves and quell the rebellion, and the benevolence of the prince is really the only thing I have seen in my life. Ci for Donglai, the people of Beihai thank you! ”
"Eh, Ziyi, please get up quickly, prepare to act all your life, pay attention to a good beginning and a good end, Wusu was defeated and fled by me and Liyi, but I didn't expect that only the people of Youzhou were fierce, and the people of Qing and Yan were so cowardly, and they let that little thief rekindle the prairie fire. Alas, if he had known this earlier, even if he paid a little more price, Bei should have joined forces with Koji Yi to encircle and destroy Wusu! ”
Tai Shi Ci explained fairly: "This can't be blamed on the prince, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is so rampant, and it is also because the people's grievances have accumulated too deeply, otherwise what can be done by relying on Wusu and a thousand Hu Cavalry alone?" Usu is just a spark that ignites a firewood pile. ”
Liu Bei picked up Tai Shici and thought for a while: "In this way, Beihai Guan Ning and Bingyuan crossed the sea to vote in the morning, also because of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban?" Ziyi just said that the fierceness of the thieves in Beihai County is no less than that of Donglai. ”
Tai Shi Ci hurriedly gave a detailed introduction to the situation he knew: "This is indeed the case, just because the rebels are afraid that the imperial court will send troops to encircle and suppress, all huddle on the peninsula, Qingzhou is covered by Mount Tai and Mengshan in the east, and the terrain is complicated.
The imperial court dispatched troops and horses from other states, but it was also difficult to arrive quickly and encircle and suppress them by surprise. As a result, the rebels are increasingly inclined to wreak havoc on the peninsula. If the prince is willing to help and go by sea, then Donglai and Beihai are just on the north shore of the peninsula, facing Liaodong, and they will be able to surprise and attack them unprepared. ”
Liu Bei nodded: "Wait for Zhang Chun to give the head, the time is right, please be thoughtful, I will suddenly send troops secretly." At that time, with Mount Tai as the boundary, our Liaodong soldiers will clear the yellow turbans in Donglai and Beihai on the north shore of the peninsula according to the benefits of the transfer of the naval division, but they must not speak of going deep into the interior. As for the west of Taishan County, leave it to the imperial army. ”
This topic stopped, and Liu Bei then pulled Li Su and Tai Shici together to discuss with Guan Yu how to capture the Liao Tunnel City in front of him next.
Tai Shici also knew that he had won Liao Tunnel and Xiangping, and that there was hope for him to go back to save Donglai's father, so he also worked very hard.
He was just a single person who absconded here in fear of crime, so his mother still lives in Donglai's hometown. And now Kong Rong has not yet become the Taishou of Beihai, so there is no one to take care of Tai Shici's family, of course he hopes to help Liu Bei completely defeat Liaodong as soon as possible, and go back to save his family with Liu Bei's soldiers.
