Chapter 589: Poisoner

(Punctuation has not changed)

There are two roads from Handan to Yandi, because there was turmoil in Julu County last year, although the rebels fled into the mountains and forests of Daze, but the place was still a little restless, so the army of Fusu and Yang Duanhe took the western front: from Hengshan County to the north.

Hengshan County is the Shijiazhuang area of later generations, the customs are similar to Handan, the land is thin and the people are numerous, the folk customs are anxious, they don't like farming, and there are many people who rely on the machine and eat. The people even have husbands getting together to play, singing sad songs and being generous, doing some chivalry, looting, digging graves and robbing tombs.

After Qin ruled Hengshan County, all this was forbidden, but the local light chivalrous and evil youth activities are still frequent, this time the imperial court forcibly recruited this group to enlist as a man, and also caused many people to flee the mountains and forests, gathering people for bandits, so there was not much to collect, good people and evil teenagers were mixed, two or three thousand people.

Therefore, the 10,000 troops did not receive much replenishment here, and the soldiers of Zhao Di could only eat brown rice, and the people only had some gruel to drink. Although everyone brought their own dry food at the beginning, there will be a day when they run out, and they can't eat enough when they serve in the army, so they naturally complain a lot. Every morning, thousands of people woke up from hunger and sat on the ground weakly, with gloomy faces, looking resentfully at the Qin officials urging them forward.

However, the main general Fusu took the lead in drinking porridge, which made the anger of the soldiers divert, and at first they thought that he was putting on a show, and he must be secretly eating. But along the way, every time Fusu came to patrol the camp, he saw that he was getting thinner and thinner, and he became as hungry as the soldiers and men of Zhao Di.

"The son is good, and the bad is the Qin officials who deduct military rations."

Many people in Zhao Di think so, but this move only lasts for a few days, because their situation has still not improved, and if this continues, I am afraid that there will be a flight.

This dangerous situation did not improve until the end of March, when he arrived in Fanyang County, Quang Duong County.

Guangyang County is the northern Hebei region of the later generations, and there is a famous granary here: Du Kang.

In the relative Central Plains, the relatively barren Yan land, Du Kang, is really a place of ointment, when Jing Ke assassinated Qin, the name is to offer the map of Du Kang, it can be said that to get Du Kang, it is equivalent to Yan Guo himself gave up the granary, everywhere under the control of others.

After Qin exterminated Yan, he also attached great importance to this place, and encouraged the local practice of cattle farming. The golden millet piled up several nearby counties slowly, which was also the biggest reliance of Qin Shi Huang who dared to use troops in the northeast.

When the more than 10,000 troops arrived in Fanyang County, they finally no longer had to satisfy their hunger with thin porridge and ate hot corn.

Fusu was finally able to put down the porridge bowl and eat a bite of dry rice that had not been seen for a long time.

"Why should Childe be like this?"

Yang Duanhe couldn't help but be a little moved when he saw Gongzi Fusu gobbling up, it was easy to put on a show once or twice, but if he could only drink gruel for ten days, this was probably true benevolence.

In these words, there is another meaning: Do you need to be so kind to these Yan Zhao conscripts who can only be used to fill the ravines?

Fusu has his own thoughts: "It's a long way to go, Guanzhong, Zhaodi, and Yandi are mixed with soldiers, and there are more than 10,000 people, if the three armies can't work together, I'm afraid that before the war, they will have to mess up, and there are not a few people left." If I can't be honest, how can I ask them to serve before the battle? ”

Is it really useful to punish harsh laws?

"Childe's idea is good, but it's ......"

Yang Duanhe sighed, remembering Qin Shi Huang's instructions to him, he wanted to stop talking, he could only shake his head and say: "The matter is not as simple as Gongzi thought......

……

The experienced Yang Duanhe suggested that the army rest near Fanyang County for two days, let the dirty soldiers and men go to Yishui to take a bath after marching on the dirt road for many days, so as not to infect lice and fleas and spread diseases after the summer.

More than 10 years ago, this river, an important thing happened: the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone!

When he was a child, Prince Dan was still a hostage of Qin, and often attended banquets, and Fusu was also asked by Qin Shi Huang to be called "uncle". It is said that he was one of the few friends of Qin Shi Huang when he was young, and the two were in Handan, both hostages, and they also sympathized with each other.

When the prince was drunk, he sang a deep and majestic Yan song, which was Fusu's first impression of this northern country.

However, no matter how good the relationship is, it can't be defeated by the national enemy, Qin will destroy the six countries, Prince Dan and Qin Shi Huang have broken up, and they want to kill them quickly!

Prince Dan, Jing Ke, and Gao gradually left, this can be regarded as the enemy of Gongzi Fusu, although he often admonishes, he is regarded as disobedient by the emperor, but Fusu loves his father, and has no sympathy for these few people who want to kill his father.

It's just that the Yan people's hatred for Qin is as heavy as the hatred of Prince Dan and Gao Yuanli for Qin Shi Huang?

This is not that the resentment of the Yan people towards the Qin people seems to be lighter than that of the Zhao people. After all, it was very late for the two countries to make a feud and attack, and the people of Yan did not miss the Yan royal family very much. It's just that in order to punish the Yan State, Qin Shi Huang imposed punitive heavy taxes and heavy labor on Guangyang County, and the local Qiantou complained a lot.

After a circle around Yishui, when he returned to Fanyang County, Fusu asked the local county commander named "Xu Gong" to help him find some local scholars to come, and the army walked in Yandi, if there were locals as staff, it would be more convenient for him to understand the local situation.

People looked for a few, all of them were the children of local wealthy families, and most of the talk was to praise Fusu, praising him for loving soldiers like a son, praising him for his benevolence and heroism, Fusu was tired of listening to a lot, and casually responded to a few sentences, and let them leave.

But the last person, a poor man with a bun on his head and no crown, wearing a soap-colored cloth coat and his hands in his sleeves, when Fusu was talking to others, he raised his eyes from time to time to look at him, stroked his triangular beard, and seemed to be smiling, and Fusu also noticed him.

After the others finished speaking and retreated, the scholar waved at Fusu and said in a somewhat sandwiched Guanzhong language: "Fan Yang Buyi Kui Che, I have seen the son!" “

"It turns out that Mr. Kuai can speak Yayan." Fusu returned the courtesy, he listened to the Xu County order, this Kuaiche is a rare local scholar, who has read books, has traveled to Yanqi, is erudite and well-known, and has a small reputation in this county.

Since there is no need for someone who knows dialects to be a translator, things are simple, Fusu casually chatted with Kui Che for a few words, and found that he does have some real skills, he knows everything about Yandi traffic and cities, and when it comes to North Korea, he can also say something that Fusu doesn't know.

Fusu was interested, and was about to talk more, but Kui Che suddenly got up and said: "The grass people heard that the son had the same food and clothing with the soldiers along the way, and he didn't take the soldiers of Zhao Di as outsiders, so he raised food for them, and when he came to Yandi, he also had the name of Corporal Lixian, and he was really a virtuous son!" However, the grass people thought that what Gongzi needed to care about was not North Korea and Canghai, but other and more urgent things! “

Fusu was a little strange and asked him what was the matter? But Kui Che did not speak, and looked at the translator and his entourage in the room, meaning that this matter was not enough for outsiders.

The captain of the guard whispered to Fusu: "Childe, this person is a deceitful person or an assassin, it is better to chase him away, or arrest him." “

"Thou hast searched his body, and he is unarmed, what can he do? Or listen to what he has to say. “

Fusu let the two most trusted guards stay indoors, and after the rest of them left, Kuaiche said:

"The grass people said bluntly, I am not here to give advice on the ban on Gongzi's Eastern Crusade, but to pity you as a dying person and come to mourn......"

The two guards were furious when they heard this, and drew their swords and said, "Bold! “

Fusu stopped them and said with a smile: "Mr. said this, do you think that Fusu's Eastern Expedition will fail?" “

Kui Che said: "The son has a general to support, and the Eastern Expedition will be won, but there may be disaster after victory." “

Fu Su frowned: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Kuaiche shook his head and said, "Doesn't the prince hear about the matter of Jin Gongzi Shensheng?" Whoever comes, the prince will be saved. The prince's generals are in danger. As the eldest son, Gongzi has not been established as the heir for a long time, and he has repeatedly angered the emperor and been reprimanded. ”

"Now it is released as a general, called experience, but it is really far away. The grass people are worried that Gongzi's trip may be difficult to survive! ”

Syllable!

Fusu couldn't listen to it anymore, so he took the case and showed disgust: "Your Majesty is in his prime, and those who are sons should be afraid of unfilial piety, and they should not be afraid of not being able to become heirs, Mr. 's words, Fusu can't bear to listen to it anymore, please go back!" ”

The guards wanted to take Kui Che away, but Kui Che continued to say loudly: "Does Childe really want to go to the road of death? It's really benevolent, but the loser in the struggle for the throne is afraid that his life will not be guaranteed, and the son has always loved people and worked hard, and wants to abandon the people of the world? At present, there is a plan to turn the son into a safe one. ”

Fusu, who had already gotten up, turned his head and said coldly, "I'll let you say the last word." ”

Kuicher was put down, he flicked his sleeves, and smiled:

"Shen Sheng died on the inside, and Heavy Ear was at peace outside. Gongzi Rende, along the way to push the clothes and clothes, push the food, quite Yan Zhao Shi's heart, even so, it is better to collect the people of Yandi, after destroying the king of the sea, in the name of the traitors in Haidong, ask to continue to guard. “

"At that time, if the emperor does not allow it, he wants you to return to Xianyang, and the prince may still be able to inherit the unification. If it is allowed, it is clear that he does not want to establish Gongzi as his heir, and at that time, Gongzi will protect himself according to Haidong. Retreat, like a basket, is a prince! Enter, he will collapse the mountain mausoleum, and the son will be more able to raise troops in plain clothes, collect the land of Yan Zhao, and then enter the Central Plains! ”

……

"Poisoner, full of nonsense, do some tricks to discord, I listened to your words, I can't wait to go to the river to wash my ears like Xu You, and blast me out!"

Kui Che was caught by two guards, blasted out of Gongzi Fusu's mansion, and threw it into the street, looking embarrassed, his clothes were torn, and passers-by didn't know what was going on, and they all laughed.

But Quercher got up, patted the ashes, raised his head, laughed, and walked away.

"Sure enough, as I expected, the so-called benevolent and righteous son is just a compassionate and indecisive person, who can't get things done, and he can't even hold the sword handed to him. Since you know that I am a poisoner, and you know that it is a treacherous scheme, Fusu, the most important thing you should do after hearing it is not to wash your ears, but to kill me and kill my mouth! “

He smiled meaningfully.

"Thank you for your kindness, Kui Che's plan is done!"
