Chapter 12 When that's all said, who's for and who's against?
Liu Bei saw that Zou Jing was so spineless, and actually took the initiative to join the Yellow Turban Army and threw himself into the thief, and the inner defense line silently began to collapse.
This person who stepped on the horse was the chief general of the Han army? The captain of a county, Zou Jing is not as good as a township.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei worked desperately in front, but when they turned around, it was Zou Jing, the captain really appointed by the Han Dynasty, who knelt down first and became a thief.
Zou Jing played a good hand, and the beginning was to play Jiji (game over!) )
There is no time to play, even Zou Jing has surrendered to join the thief army, Liu Bei's insistence seems to be meaningless, he shook his head with a wry smile, and said sadly:
"General, Bei has also surrendered, and I am willing to take my second brother and third brother to follow the general, join the Yellow Turban Army, and serve the general."
Guan Yu still wanted to persuade again, so he came up, pulled Liu Bei's sleeve, and pleaded:
"Big brother..."
Zhang Fei thrust the Zhangba snake spear into the ground, chased after him, and also learned from Guan Yu, pulled the corner of Liu Bei's clothes, and shouted stupidly:
"Big brother, I'm also..."
Without waiting for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to finish speaking, Liu Bei burst into tears, interrupted hurriedly, and said:
"Second brother, third brother, the matter has come to this, there is no need to say more. I waited for the three brothers, so I could only accept my fate, devote myself to the thief, and devote myself to the yellow scarf. It is not easy to be a promise, it is not easy to make a promise, you must not be half-hearted, disrupt your own heart, become a person without virtue and faith, unkind and unjust, and increase the laughter of others. ”
Liu Bei felt that these words would definitely be able to impress Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he was moved just now, some of the tears on his face were forcibly squeezed out, and some were said emotionally, hypnotizing himself.
The Han is still martial, promised, and trustworthy.
However, in the next second, an abrupt whip sound exploded violently, and it was once again slammed on Liu Bei's back.
After the whip, Cheng Yuanzhi roared like a killing god, and roared:
"Ahh God, you Liu Bei, who told you that the general's army is a thief? Will I say that my Yellow Turban army is a thief? Hmph, if you talk nonsense, if you have a bad reputation, you will be asked to be beaten with Deng Mao. ”
"The army of this general is an official army, a Han army, and a righteous army. It's not the anti-thief you say, see? The general's soldiers all wear yellow scarves, do you know what this yellow scarf means? How important is it to the military? ”
In order to increase his persuasiveness, Cheng Yuanzhi took the initiative to demonstrate, ripped off the yellow scarf on his head casually, wiped it on his forehead, and continued:
"See? This yellow scarf has many uses, and when the army is in a hurry, it will definitely shed a lot of sweat, and the yellow scarf on the head can be torn off and used as a sweat towel; Fighting and slaying the enemy will definitely be splashed with blood, and this yellow scarf can be used as a towel to wipe away the blood that sticks to the eyes. ”
"In case you are unfortunately injured, this yellow scarf can still bandage yourself, and it will not take up a place on your head. Because of this yellow scarf, you are sure that you will be a thief? ”
How else can it be explained?
Liu Bei was stunned, and Guan Yu was stunned.
However, Zhang Fei felt reasonable, picked up the yellow scarf dropped by an unknown daredevil, wiped it on his head, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief comfortably, and said with a smile:
"Big brother, second brother, it's pretty good, you guys try?"
Based on Cheng Yuanzhi's one-sided words, the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the hundred officials of the court did not recognize him.
Liu Bei, who came back to his senses, looked suspicious, smiled shyly, and asked:
"General, are you really not thieves? That is, the water washed away the Dragon King Temple, great, dare to ask what position the general holds? Where does it belong? ”
If Cheng Yuanzhi can be whitewashed, then this matter will be over. Liu Bei was not a thief, but he deliberately took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and led a group of soldiers and horses to defect to the Han army.
It just so happens that Cheng Yuanzhi is the Han Army, as for why he wears a yellow scarf, does it matter? Don't you wipe your sweat when you go into battle to kill the enemy?
Liu Bei doesn't believe in Cheng Yuanzhi, a good anti-thief, how can it be so easy to become an official soldier?
Cheng Yuanzhi was angry, this Liu Bei was more irritable than Deng Mao, like a Teletubbies, babbling and asking, of course Cheng Yuanzhi didn't give Liu Bei a good face, glared at Liu Bei fiercely, and mocked:
"Liu Bei Xiao'er, you also deserve to inquire about the general's affairs? For the sake of the three of you, it's still a little interesting, and the martial arts are okay, and today I will tell you about mercy. ”
"The place where this general is stationed is in Guangyang, Youzhou, as for the official position..... Uh, official position? Old man Zou Jing, what is the biggest official position in Youzhou? If he was going to be an official, he would be the biggest official. ”
Sure enough, Cheng Yuanzhi was talking nonsense.
If it is not to lay down the city of the Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven will recognize Cheng Yuanzhi's strength, and thus give Cheng Yuanzhi the official position, which is delusional.
Cheng Yuanzhi in front of him, a proper anti-thief standard.
Zou Jing, who had been standing on the side tremblingly, was suddenly named by Cheng Yuanzhi, his heart trembled, and he had to stand up with weak hands and feet, and replied:
"General Hui, the biggest official positions in Youzhou are Assassin Shi and Taishou." Regarding the military position of the Han Dynasty, Zou Jingren is old and refined, and it is still clear.
Assassin Shi is in charge of the army, and he is too guarded to manage internal affairs.
Generally speaking, the assassins of each state and county are Han clan relatives like Liu Bei, and Taishou is a capable person recommended by hundreds of officials in the court. The assassin holds the military power, keeps the peace of one party, guards the officials of a state, and works for the benefit of the people.
When Cheng Yuanzhi heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and said proudly:
"I see, Guo Xun, the assassin of Youzhou before, and Liu Wei, who was too guarded, were all sent to the west with a hammer. It just so happened that the assassin and Taishou of Youzhou would have been all taken. Ben will work hard and hold two positions. Both the army and internal affairs must be grasped with both hands, and both hands should be firm. ”
"Ben is done talking, who is for it and who is against?"
Cheng Yuanzhi announced his official position uncontrollably, his eyes were full of tyranny, like a beast that had just been released from the cage, and the slightest objection would cause it to hurt people.
Youzhou Guangyang has long been taken by Cheng Yuanzhi, and both Assassin Shi and Taishou were killed by Cheng Yuanzhi, and these two official positions are indeed vacant.
But the appointment of the official position of the Han Dynasty has its own set of rules, either recommend as an official, or pay to buy an official, at least to get the seal of the heirloom jade seal of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, which counts.
There is no basis for empty words, no matter how you say it, it is all false, and when the new edict of the Han Dynasty comes down, everything will come to naught.
Zou Jing knew that what Cheng Yuanzhi said didn't count, but Cheng Yuanzhi was too ruthless, and he didn't dare to come forward to persuade him, for fear that Cheng Yuanzhi would give Zou Jing a hammer, so he simply listened to Cheng Yuanzhi's wild words.
But Liu Bei couldn't help it, Liu Bei also wanted to become a regular Han army, the kind of official who had an official position, and didn't want to mix with Cheng Yuanzhi just now, so Cheng Yuanzhi came to Liukou's trick of occupying the mountain as the king.
That's still not whitewashed, it's just that from a thief to a thief, the bigger thief occupies the city, and he is still a thief.
