Chapter 324: Return to Liaocheng (2-in-1)
In mid-September, Liu De finally arrived at the Dai County Wharf in Yanzhou.
On the way, there was a large wind and waves, and it was delayed for a while, but fortunately there were no casualties, but some war horses were lost, which was a blessing in misfortune.
Zou Teng, the county commander of Dai County, who had already received the news, hurriedly rushed over, Zou Teng was originally a member of the Gao family, and then surrendered to Liu De, Liu De saw that he knew each other, and the preparation of grain and grass was quite effective, and he was still appointed as the county commander of Dai County.
"Minister! Zou Teng meets the lord! ”
Zou Teng bowed, and his eyes showed a rather excited look.
"Get up!"
Liu De looked at Zou Teng, who had quite acting skills, and didn't bother to pay attention to him, and asked directly: "What's the big deal in Yanzhou now?" ”
Zou Teng hurriedly said: "Back to the lord, Yang Tianlong is the emperor in Beiping, and the country is Zhao!" The eldest son [Yang Yuzhao] is the crown prince, his wife Deng is the queen, and the younger brother Yang Tiantian is the general who led 300,000 troops to attack my Jinyang, Chen Gong and Xun Changshi sent a large number of soldiers and horses to Jinyang Pass, and I heard that the battle was very fierce! ”
Liu De's expression was as usual, and he didn't take Yang Tiantian's 300,000 army in his eyes at all, and said to Zou Teng: "With the danger of Jinyang Pass and the ability of Guan Yu, give Yang Tiantian 500,000 horses, and he will not want to take Jinyang Pass!" Thou shalt panic! ”
Li Lan next to him said crisply: "That's an army of 300,000, you are so confident?" ”
Zou Teng saw that the guard next to Liu De turned out to be a woman, and hurriedly bowed down to worship.
Liu De smiled: "Of course I have confidence in them!" Walk! Let's go to Daicheng first, and then go back to Liaocheng! ”
Zou Teng flattered: "Lord, it's better to stay in Dai County for a while, let your subordinates entertain you, this Dai County seafood is a must!" ”
Liu De glanced at Zou Teng and said, "No need, your mind is received by the general, do your county order well!" Then he quickly left the dock with his soldiers and horses.
"The minister commands~~"
Zou Teng lengthened the last note, seemed quite interested, got into his carriage with his figure-eight feet, and shouted: "Go, go back to the county office!" ”
......
"The last will meet the lord!"
Liu Gui led Zhang Hong and other generals to bow to Liu De.
"Haha, please get up, uncle!"
Liu De turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hand to help Liu Gui up, patted Liu Gui's shoulder vigorously, and looked at a few white hairs on Liu Gui's head, Liu Gui is only thirty-six years old this year, in the prime of life, I didn't expect to have white hair, it can be seen that it is hard, Liu De suddenly said: "It's really hard Uncle Gui!" ”
Liu Gui opened his mouth and smiled: "It's not hard, this is the duty of a minister!" ”
Then Liu Gui took Liu De's arm and introduced to Liu De: "This is Gao Jiayi, the current head of the Gao family, and the head of the Gao Cai Hou family passed away due to illness a month ago!" ”
Gao Jiayi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Gao Jiayi, a grass man, greets the general of the chariot!" ”
"General Chesar?"
"Lord, this is the news that has just come from Liaocheng, Ji Yuanxu, the younger brother of Emperor Ji Yuanwu, and Ji Fengxuan, the son of Ji Yuanzheng, is the emperor, and you are canonized as the general of the chariot cavalry, the pastor of Yanzhou, and the marquis of Liaocheng!" Liu Gui explained to Liu De.
"Ji Yuanxu, this is a lot of money! Give Xun Changshi an order to draft a document, saying that the general accepts this edict and is willing to guard Yanzhou for His Majesty, and after it is written, send someone to pass it to Luancheng by sea! Liu Deling said.
"Yes!"
"Where is Gao Jiayi?"
"The grass people are here!"
Gao Jiayi hurriedly came out, panicking in his heart, when Liu Gui's army came to the city of Daicheng, Daicheng was already panicked, and there was no morale in the city, Gao Jiayi took this opportunity to get out, and with the support of the elders of the clan, he took over the military power in the city, tied up Gao Bo, who was still clamoring for a desperate battle, and went down to the city to surrender.
So Liu Gui's army took Liaocheng bloodlessly, Gao Bo also wanted to struggle to get up and die with Liu Gui, but Peng Yue next to Liu Gui directly chopped off his head, and the resistance of the Gao family was instantly cleaned, Gao Jiayi took the initiative to help Liu Gui take over the counties and ordered them to surrender, saving Liu Gui a lot of effort.
Liu De was very satisfied with Gao Jiayi's behavior, it would be good that the families in Liaocheng were as obedient as Gao Jiayi, otherwise they would not have killed Liaocheng and shed a river of blood.
Countering violence with violence is not the best policy after all, it seems that we still have to think carefully about how to maintain the balance in all aspects in the future, the family, the poor family, the military... Liu De thought in his heart.
"Gao Jiayi, since you sincerely surrender to our army, then you will be promoted to Daicheng Cheng and assist General Liu Gui in handling the government affairs of Liaocheng." Liu De directly appointed that the Gao family's power in Daicheng should not be underestimated, but now the front line is fighting with the Yang family's 300,000 army is at a critical juncture, and Liu De must ensure that the rear is stable and cannot cause chaos, so Gao Jiayi is canonized to stabilize the heart of the family.
"Minister, obey!" Gao Jiayi's heart when he mentioned his throat was instantly put back into his stomach, and he hurriedly shouted thanks.
Liu De said to Liu Gui: "Uncle Gui, I won't stay here for a long time, I will immediately return to Liaocheng to preside over the overall situation, and Daicheng County will be handed over to you!" ”
Liu Gui's eyes were very firm, and he nodded vigorously and said: "Please rest assured that the lord will manage the people of this county as the lord!" ”
"Good!"
At this time, a voice also came from the system, prompting Liu De to obtain an official position: General Che Cai, Yanzhou Mu, and the title of Marquis of Liaocheng. It seems that Yang Zichuan was the Marquis of Liaocheng at the beginning.
Che Cavalry General Command +5, Yanzhou Pastoral Politics +6, Intelligence +2, Liaocheng Marquis Politics +5, Commander +2. All bonus attributes are taken to the highest value, that is, Liu De's final attribute bonus is Command +5, Politics +6, and Intelligence +2.
Liu De did not stay for a long time, and handed over Daicheng County to Liu Gui, although Liu Gui's political attributes were not enough to lead a county, but there were Zhang Hong and Gao Jiayi, and the political attributes of both of them reached 70 or above, and they could basically stabilize one side.
Liu Gui's obligation here is to be responsible for deterring the younger generation!
By the time Liu De galloped all the way to Liaocheng, there was basically only a small tail left in September, and the weather was already cold, and it was about to enter winter.
This time, it is also so fast!
Because they are all cavalry, and there are a lot of war horses, Liu De's speed is very fast, and when he arrives in Liaocheng, the defenders in the city have not yet reacted, until Xun Yu, who is in the palace, gets the news that Liu De is almost to the palace, and Bai Qi is going to the barracks to settle the soldiers and horses.
"How's the battle going now?"
Although Liu De was very confident in Guan Yu's ability, he was still quite concerned about the battle situation in Jinyang Pass, and came directly to the government to listen to Xun Yu's report.
All the officials in Liaocheng were mobilized by Xun Yu, and Liu De could easily feel the difference in atmosphere when he returned to the long-lost mansion, and he was full of enthusiasm.
Xun Yu, the head of the general's mansion, is not in vain, and he deserves to be Xun Lingjun in the center!
Xun Yu said: "Lord! General Guan just sent a report yesterday, saying that the enemy army suffered heavy losses, Yang Tiantian himself was also injured by Captain Zhang Fei, and the morale of the enemy army was low. ”
"What about the losses of our army?" Liu De picked up the tea cup placed on the desk and took a big sip of tea, now he is a little thirsty!
"With 5,000 casualties, General Chen Qi suffered a dark arrow, and now he is seriously injured and has not woken up, but according to Doctor An, there is no danger to his life!" Xun Yu said.
Liu De slowly put down the teacup, and after half a ring, he nodded and said, "It's good that there is no danger to life!" ”
If Chen Qi dies in battle, Liu De really doesn't know how to explain to Grandpa Chen and Chen Ying.
"Does Grandpa Chen know the news?" Liu De asked softly.
"Yes!"
"What did Grandpa Chen say?"
"That's it, I know!"
"Alas..."Liu De sighed: "The Liu family has treated Grandpa Chen too much!" ”
Then Liu De asked, "Grandpa Chen, where is he now?" ”
"Back to the lord, Chen Gong is now engaged in transporting grain and grass in the west of the city with Mi!" Xun Yu said.
"Okay, I'll take a look!"
......
In Beiping, Yang Tianlong, who had ascended the throne and became emperor, was furious, wearing a black gown, and the twelve crowns on his head made a noise with the shaking of Yang Tianlong's body.
Yang Tianlong led 50,000 horses and horses to quell the rebellion of Pinggu in only half a month, and Yang Tianlong put the rebellious ministers and thieves on the head of Pinggu's city to deter those rebellious ministers and thieves who were quite restless in his eyes.
But Yang Tianlong didn't expect that it was Yang Tiantian, who should have been nine out of ten, who had an accident!
Yang Tianlong threw the music in his hand to the ground and scolded: "What is Yang Tiantian doing!" Was the brain eaten by a dog? As the commander of the first army, he actually went out to fight, and now he is unconscious, and the morale of the army is low! Seeing that winter is coming, do you still want me to wait for next year to attack Jinyang Pass? ”
An official below picked up the song, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the dragons must not be without a leader, and the three armies must not be without a commander, it is better to send a general to replace the general, and take advantage of the heavy snow to strive to take Jinyang Pass!" ”
"What do you propose?" Yang Tianlong asked.
"It's better to send General Yang Shuzi to replace the general, General Yang Shuzi had led the army to attack Jinyang, quite experienced, presumably with the strength of General Yang Shuzi, he will be able to take Jinyang Pass!" The official suggested.
Yang Tianlong was a little hesitant, Uncle Yang's prestige in the army was broken, and he finally used Yang Tiantian to suppress Uncle Yang, and now he is taking him as a general, in charge of an army of 300,000, he is not at ease!
Yang Tianlong said: "General Yang needs to guard Liyang and guard against the north, how can he move lightly, or let [Yang Bi] go!" Appointed Yang Bi as the general of the expedition to the north, replaced Yang Tiantian as the commander of the three armies, and led the troops to attack Jinyang Pass! ”
Yang Bi is also a member of the Yang clan. Yang Tianlong trusted the Yang clan the most.
"This Guan Yu is worthy of being the number one general under Liu De, and his strength should not be underestimated, with only 40,000 horses, he will be unable to pass through the defense of Jinyang Pass! Let me paint an army of 300,000, but I can only look at the city and sigh! Yang Tianlong tapped his fingers on the dragon chair and said.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a plan! Can break through Jinyang Pass early! ”
A counselor stepped forward.
"Tell me about it!"
"According to the minister's understanding, Liu De has only seventy or eighty thousand horses, and now half of the soldiers and horses are in the hands of Guan Yu, it is better to release rumors, Guan Yu wants to support the army and stand on his own, Liu De is not in Yanzhou, presumably Chen Shuo, who stayed in Liaocheng, will be suspicious, maybe he will remove Guan Yu's position as the main general, in addition to Guan Yu, the other generals under Liu De are all generals, and the four generals of Dongyu are just a false name! In this way, the day of our army's breakthrough is near! ”
The advisor said with confidence.
"Good!"
Yang Tianlong listened to it and said happily: "This is a plan of the Yang scheme!" Guan Yu is arrogant by nature, and he is not a veteran of Dongyu, Chen Shuo must be suspicious, so he will act according to this plan! ”
The advisor replied: "The minister's order!" ”
The premise of this plan is that Liu De did not return to Yanzhou, Yang Tianlong would never have thought that Liu De would arrive in Yanzhou so quickly, according to their plan, if Liu De is not in Yanzhou, Chen Shuo will be the best plan, because Chen Shuo does not dare to guarantee whether Guan Yu will really support the army and stand on his own, Chen Shuo must be responsible for Liu De, and dare not have the slightest sloppiness.
Xun Yu wouldn't be too likely to stop Chen Shuo, although he knew that it might be the enemy's ploy.
But as Yang Tianlong said, Guan Yu is quite arrogant and arrogant to scholars, so the relationship with the ministers is not too good, and the relationship with most generals can only be regarded as average, and only the relationship with Zhang Fei is the best.
Because of his outstanding military achievements, he was even named the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion by Ji Yuanwu, Guan Yu has his proud capital.
Be proud!
So in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Xun Yu will definitely be in favor of replacing Guan Yu.
Then send Yan Nan or Liu De to replace Guan Yu, which will inevitably cause unrest in Liu Dejun's army and give Yang Jun an opportunity.
That's human nature!
It's a pity that they ended up with a bad move, they didn't expect Liu De to rush back as quickly as possible and preside over the overall situation, Liu De knew that Guan Yu's loyalty to him was absolutely no problem, so he would not be separated by the enemy.
If they had implemented this strategy earlier, they might have had a chance of success!
......
And after Liu De met Chen Shuo and Yan Nan at this time, he took Li Lan back to Liu's mansion.
From now on, Li Lan will also live in Liu's mansion.
Thinking of this, Li Lan was still a little nervous, and asked Liu De on the way, would my sister-in-law dislike me!
Of course, Liu De patted Li Lan's hand and told her, sister-in-law is very good, you look so cute, you will definitely like you!
Li Lan may have deliberately not thought about it, Liu De's real wife was waiting for him in Liu's Mansion!
The Liu Mansion had long known the news of Liu De's entry into the city, and there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the mansion, and Shen Feng, the chief housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, hurriedly sent someone to clean the courtyard, tidy up the house, and set up a banquet.
Several of Liu De's concubines were also happy when they got the news, and then immediately sat down in front of the dresser and dressed up carefully.
Ma Yuxuan stroked her seven-month-old belly, with a maternal glow on her face, and said silently in her heart: "You are your father's first child, but you must be angry!" ”
Qian pulled Liu Jia, who was full of smiles, to the door of the mansion and personally waited for Liu De's arrival, Chen Ying stood behind Qian and waited for Liu De's arrival with a complicated face.
Chen Ying doesn't care too much about Liu De's concubines, after all, it is normal to have three wives and four concubines as Liu De, even if Ma Yuxuan and Guo You are pregnant with Liu De's child, Chen Ying is happier than others, and even often visits Ma Yuxuan and the two, she knows that Ma Yuxuan and the two can't replace her position in Liu De's heart, but Chen Ying doesn't know what she is worried about?
