Chapter 064: Swallowing 100,000 Soldiers
Gao Yi hurried to his military camp, Qin Fu sent an entourage to Gao Yi to the military camp when Gao Yi and Pei Yuanshao were questioning in the city, and revealed Gao Yi's intention to the Yellow Turban soldiers, which naturally caused an uproar, so when they saw Gao Yi coming, they all got up and looked at Gao Yi silently.
"Everyone, Gao Yi is not talented, I can't take you in!" Gao Yi turned over and got off the horse, because his body was not yet well-strained, he couldn't help but stumble, almost fell, Zhao Yun was going to help, Gao Yi was already in shape, his eyes looked around the camp tent with guilt, and more than 10,000 people and horses in the rear prisoner camp who had been confiscated, and they also walked out one after another, most of them were wounded wounded soldiers, but they were not properly bandaged, they endured great pain, looked at Gao Yi who came step by step, and said the same thing in their mouths:" Will Captain Gao Du abandon us? I'm waiting to follow Captain Gao to the death! ”
As he spoke, hundreds of people were already rushing towards Gao Yi, and thousands of people behind him also responded one after another.
Pei Yuanshao drank coldly first: "What are you going to do, give me a retreat!" After saying that, he ordered his subordinates to come and drive him away, but was stopped by Gao Yi: "General Pei, slow down!" You were once their companion, how can you do it? ”
Pei Yuanshao glanced back at Gao Yi and said respectfully: "The lesson of the lord is that Pei Mou is not thoughtful, and please take responsibility for the lord!"
"It's okay!" Gao Yi did not blame Pei Yuanshao's reckless behavior, but went directly into the crowd of many soldiers and prisoners, and said loudly, "Gao Yi does not want to abandon your brothers, and for the sake of your brothers, how can I Gao Yi be favored by tens of thousands of Yellow Turban brothers, but please also think about it for Gao Yi, Gao Yi is the captain of the light car of the Han Dynasty, everything is only ordered by the emperor Fu, and the imperial court ordered the captain of the light car to lead no more than 10,000 people, it is because Gao Yi dares to accept the 5,000 men and horses under the command of Pei Yuanshao's brothers, as for you, If I co-opt it, will I not break the king's law and cause trouble for myself? ”
Hearing this, everyone showed a little disappointed look on their faces, looked at each other, didn't know how to answer, only knelt on the ground together, and said in a poignant voice: "If Captain Gao Du doesn't take me in, there will be only one way to die!" ”
"What are these words? You have already put down the sword soldiers, you are no longer a yellow turban thief, you can just go home and farm, how can it be a dead end? Gao Yi squeezed out a smile on his face. The men were asked to get up, but none of them got up.
Pei Yuanshao stopped a few wounded soldiers who were about to rush to Gao Yi's side, and turned back to Gao Yi and said: "What they say is true, my lord, if you are a thief for a day, you will be a stigma that cannot be washed away for life. ”
"What?" Gao Yi was taken aback when he heard this, and his face changed drastically, "When did this happen, why don't I know anything about it?" ”
Zhao Yun also rode at this time, and saw the spectacular scene of the camp being black and crushing people's heads to bow down, and probably guessed what was going on, he got off the horse and said to Gao Yi: "At this time, I also heard a little, at that time my brother was still in a coma, and the officers and soldiers had to send people to sneak into the surrender camp and the prisoner camp every night, catch some people back, torture and die, and use it as a military merit, until Qin Fu and I found out and strengthened the manpower guard to be banned!" ”
"Damn, among the officers and soldiers, there are such shameless people, investigate, we must find out, if this kind of thing is allowed to happen, what is the difference between the officers and the thieves?"
Before the words fell, I only heard a bell ringing, it turned out that he was frustrated, and he immediately admonished Gao Yi and said: "The lord doesn't have to do useless work, you can't find out by checking, this kind of thing has been repeatedly banned since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is Kou, so we have to rely on the lord to make a bold move, first do extraordinary things, and then build extraordinary work!" ”
Gao Yi calmed down and muttered to himself: "Extraordinary things, extraordinary achievements? ”
Fu Zhi nodded, turned over and dismounted, came behind Gao Yi, and continued: "The imperial court has a clear order, but if you stick to the rules and don't change, wouldn't you tie your hands and feet and let others benefit in vain?" It's better to let go of your hands and feet, collect its elite, go to its old and weak, when half of them can be used by me, and the world has always been fickle, if you don't take the right to do it, the elite men and horses will be divided into three armies, the lord will lead an army, and the remaining men and horses will be organized into four battalions, General Pei Yuanshao is still in command of the camp of 5,000 men and horses, and then General Long and Qin Chuan each have a battalion, and the two of them were also promoted to Fengyi Lieutenant and Anguo Lieutenant by the Che Cavalry General this time, and they can lead a battalion, which is not considered to be a violation, if there are still some men and horses left, they will be sent to Liu Bei in the name of dismissal, His 500 men and horses have not increased or decreased for half a year, which is really embarrassing! ”
Gao Yi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Mr. is still thoughtful, not violating the system, but also succeeding, and doing a good job, it can be described as killing three birds with one stone, but I decided to change it slightly, since it is a favor, you have to be sincere, first select 5,000 elite teachers to send to Liu Bei, where is he now?" ”
Frustrated and comprehended: "The lord really knows the way to win people, then Liu Bei and his two brothers have led the headquarters of five hundred men and horses to go down to Quyang in front of the general of the chariot cavalry to suppress Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao is lonely, there is no food and grass inside, there is no rescue outside, according to the vigorous and resolute means of the general of the chariot cavalry, it is only a matter of about three months to capture and kill Zhang Bao!"
Three months, hehe, Gao Yi smiled slightly, where do you need three months? Huangfu Song knows the art of war very well, since Zhang Bao is already exhausted, he can easily take Zhang Bao's head with a trick of deception and ambush, the so-called three months, I am afraid that it is to drive Zhang Bao's more than 100,000 horses and horses to kill them forever, no wonder Huangfu Song is in a hurry to go to Quyang without even bringing Cao Cao and Liyi, it is estimated that it is to prevent the embarrassing situation that Gao Yi will go out with the army and subdue 100,000 soldiers and horses!
Thinking of this, Gao Yi ordered solemnly: "Fu Zhu, Zhao Yun, Qin Fu, and Pei Yuanshao listen to the order!" ”
Hearing this, the four of them immediately bowed down and listened: "Here!" ”
Gao Yi took a deep breath and said loudly: "I order you to wait to verify the number of wounded soldiers, and all those who are seriously injured, over fifty years old, and under seventeen years old will be given 500 yuan and repatriated to their hometowns, and there will be no mistakes!" ”
After finishing speaking, no one answered, Gao Yi was slightly angry: "But you don't understand? ”
Fu Zhu glanced at the other three, and said with a sad face: "Back to the lord, because of the purchase of weapons and armor and the purchase of grain and grass, there is not much left, and it is not enough to pay this fee at all, and I hope the lord will see it!" ”
"Huh?" Gao Yi was a little surprised, "Half of Mr.'s family property was actually spent so quickly?" ”
Frustrated and smiled bitterly: "This is nature, the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass go first, 100,000 troops, and the treasury has been empty for three years. ”
Gao Yi looked at Fu Zhi in confusion and asked suspiciously: "Since Mr. knows the stakes involved, why do you still persuade me to keep these people?" ”
Frustrated and smiled: "The lord does not know, those who have achieved great things, all of them have to find a clever way from the predicament, in order to get through the difficulties, if the soldiers are sufficient, the food and grass are not worried, the attack is invincible, the defense is invincible, and the world can be won without effort, what is the meaning of that?" People are poor and think about change, thinking about change is wide in the future, Guangzong fights, sitting on 20,000 new forces, this is a God-given opportunity, if you don't cherish it, it will be owned by others! ”
Gao Yi is such a smart person, although he didn't know what to say, Gao Yi already knew the deep meaning of his words, and asked with a smile: "What does Mr. mean, is it that I want to take a city as the basic first, and then recruit displaced people, develop farming with these prisoners, and watch the changes in the world?" ”
Frustrated and leaned over and responded: "The lord is clear-cut, and his subordinates don't need to say much!" ”
Qin Fan looked at it for a long time, and then came over and said, "Yes, lord, I see that you and the emperor have different opinions on all matters, and you don't agree with each other, what's the point?" It's better to find a place that the imperial court can't control, raise food and soldiers, and gather all these people in Taiping Dao, ostensibly obeying the will of the imperial court, but in fact—"
Qin Chuan didn't dare to say any more of the words in the future, this military camp has many ears and eyes, if someone with a heart passes these words on to others, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Gao Yi didn't reprimand Qin Tuo's disrespectful words, nor did he respond immediately, he remembered the words in Zhang Jiao's blood letter: "I am willing to fold my own shares and humerus to authorize the hands of the nobles, if the nobles are proud of the court, they hope to lure millions of sectarians to achieve great causes, if the nobles are disappointed in the court, Jiao is also willing to secretly help the nobles, with their own ability, with the power of the world's sects, to become an immortal hegemon!" ”
All kinds of signs indicate that the Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to be completely quelled, although there will be dozens of remnant parties such as Black Mountain Baibo and Huanglong in the future, but in the end, it is those families who are strong, everyone wants to take this opportunity to get a piece of the pie, so why should Gao Yi be an exception?
Thinking of this, Gao Yi asked again: "In Mr.'s opinion, where is it better to choose this basically?" ”
Fu Zhu seemed to have expected Gao Yi to ask about this matter, so he paced left and right for two steps, and then said in detail: "This place is as Qin Fu said, it must be a place that the imperial court forces cannot reach, and it is located in a key place, and it is convenient to travel. ”
As soon as he said this, Gao Yi immediately flashed a few place names in his mind, and said with a smile: "It's nothing more than Yecheng, Qu'a, Xiangyang and Shouchun!"
Frustrated and shook his head: "No, although these places are good, there are mountains and rivers as risks, and the mountains and rivers are dangerous, but it is good that the mountains and rivers are dangerous, but it is easy to breed the heart of defending, so there are more rules, but not enough!"
With the danger of mountains and rivers is easy to live and keep the heart, Gao Yi heard such a point of view for the first time, he couldn't help but have an interest in relieving the doubts in his heart, and asked again: "In this way, which city does Mr. think fits?"
Fu Zhu didn't say it right away, but pointed to a wounded soldier next to him who was holding a coarse porcelain bowl for drinking water, and said, "There is nothing more suitable than this city!"
Bowl? Wancheng!
As soon as Gao Yi thought of this word, he thought of Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, and of course, Cao Cao's generals Dian Wei and Cao Ang, Cao Anmin, etc., who died here. What's more, if Gao Yi is not mistaken, Wancheng is now entrenched by Han Zhong, Zhao Hong, Sun Xia and others, another commander of the Yellow Turban Army, right? And Zhu Jun is also attacking Wancheng, and the offensive is no less fierce than that of Guangzong, does Gao Yi want to take the newly collected 20,000 or 30,000 people to attack Wancheng, which is defended by more than 100,000 Yellow Turban elites, is this planning to hit the stone or lose both?
Seeing Gao Yi's face slightly depressed, he said a word to ease his heart: "Since the lord can collect the tens of thousands of yellow turbans here, why can't he also draw a gourd and subdue the 100,000 yellow turbans in Wancheng?" At that time, the momentum was huge, the teaching of agriculture and mulberry was to consolidate the foundation, the operation of salt and iron was to raise funds, and the people and horses were divided into three, one was to reclaim the wilderness and hunt, one was to train and practice war, and one was to disturb other countries, and the three times were rotated, and the land was defended in leisure time, and troops were sent out during wartime, and after three years, it will be effective! ”
Gao Yi nodded again and again after hearing this: "Mr. is worthy of being Gao Yi's think tank, so dedicated, Gao Yi is like a cloud and a sunny day!" ”
Flattered, he humbly said: "The lord praises falsely, this is what we should do, if the strategist can't plan for the Lord and plan for the future, it is a dereliction of duty. ”
"What a sentence about eating the king, being loyal to the king, and worrying about the king!" Gao Yi laughed loudly, "I, Gao Yi, have Mr. help, why can't I win the world?" ”
Frustrated and said: "The soldiers are fast, since the lord has decided, it is better to leave as soon as possible, at this time the war is not over, the lord can repair a letter to reach the emperor and the prince, Chen does not say goodbye, so that the first emperor is secretly happy that the lord has 30,000 horses and horses, and everything will no longer take the limelight of the emperor and the princess, and the two lords can also show their strengths, why be afraid of the mouth of youyou?" ”
"Mr. is yes, but after all, I am a disciple of the Emperor Fu, do not say goodbye to the non-human disciples, I should personally go to Xia Quyang to the Emperor Fu Gong to explain the reason, Mr. and Zilong and others can lead the people to Wancheng first, claiming to go to support the right Zhonglang General Zhu Jun Lord to attack the city, as for these wounded soldiers, old and young, can be dismissed, giving people a false impression, in fact, they can be led by Pei Yuanshao secretly, each disguised as a homeless people, when the situation in Wancheng is clear, and then come to the rendezvous, I don't pass the Huangfu Gong, I will rush to Wancheng quickly, I hope that at that time, There is still something to be done! ”
After saying this, Gao Yi asked Zhao Yundao, who had been listening for a long time: "Why does Brother Yun think this plan is like this?" ”
Zhao Yun clenched his fists: "Thorough and detailed, it can be called perfect, Zilong is obedient!" ”
Gao Yi was relieved at this time, and let out a long shout: "It's so good, just do what you say, cherish it!" ”
"Precious!" Zhao Yun, Pei Yuanshao and Qin Fu hugged Gao Yi to say goodbye, watching Gao Yi turn over and ride on the floating cloud horse and leave slowly with the moon spear, the troops in the camp did not know what to do, but fortunately, the four of them were appeased, so there was no unnecessary trouble.
Gao Yi rode out of the camp, only to see a shadow that had been there for a long time, and when he saw Gao Yi come out, he blurted out a question: "Horse thief, where are you going to carry this girl on your back?" ”
