Chapter 123: Who is the general?

Seeing Liu Ze sitting down, Zhang Song hurriedly stood up and said flatteringly: "Yizhou envoy Zhang Song and Zhang Yongnian congratulate the Han Emperor, thousands of generations, and eternal stability." ΩΔ New Pen Fun 』』 Pavilion ん. ”

Liu Ze said: "Eternal years are not easy to come by, please take a seat." Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang, sitting on Xichuan, Tuzhi **, caused turmoil in Yizhou, and the people suffered for a long time. Yongnian came, I don't know what Liu Zhang means? ”

How dare Zhang Song sit and talk to Liu Ze, he still stood respectfully and said: "Entrusted by the state pastor, I will marry the Han Emperor." ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "I have been on the throne for more than two years, and Liu Zhang has not said anything to him, how can Jingzhou return to obedience and urgently send Yonglai to the court?" ”

Zhang Song said: "If the lips die, the teeth are cold." Although Yizhou has a dangerous road, Jingzhou has more than one main road to Yizhou, and the Hanzhong Central is the northern barrier, which is now also in the hands of the Han Emperor; Hearing that the two passes of Baishui and Jiameng have been lost, the army has entered the Sichuan, and the momentum is like a bamboo. The state pastor was worried, so he sent the pine as an envoy. ”

Xi Zhicai said: "Since Liu Yizhou understands the situation, why don't you come to the capital in person?" Our emperor should raise him with high-ranking officials. ”

Zhang Song said: "Liu Yizhou's father and son have been operating for two generations, how can they abandon it? ”

Liu Ze said: "The hour is not early, and the Ministry of Rites will set up a banquet to catch the wind for Yongnian." ”

Zhang Song suddenly knelt on the ground, took out the map from his underwear pocket, and said loudly: "Liu Yizhou is weak and incompetent, which puts the people in dire straits. Song Qiu as a messenger, bring a map of the terrain of Yizhou, please ask the emperor to soldiers Yizhou, save the people from fire and water, then Yizhou is very fortunate, and the people are very fortunate. ”

Liu Ze motioned for the eunuch to take it and put it on the case, seeing the exquisite map drawing, the roads, dangers, mountains, rivers, and cities are all available, and the chief officers and soldiers of the cities and passes are clearly marked, Liu Ze said: "Yongnian, this picture is drawn by you?" ”

Zhang Song blushed and said, "No, it was drawn by the staff in the house." ”

Liu Ze said: "Yongnian Mansion is really full of talents, it seems that there are many talents who draw this map?" ”

"This? Mr. Pang is the only one. ”

"Oh, that's the case, I wonder if Yongnian can cut love? Mr. Pang is such a talent, and the new school in Jixian County is in urgent need. ”

"What the emperor needs, Song will write a letter and ask Mr. Pang to come."

"It's not necessary, Yongnian has worked hard all the way, and it's not too late to eat first and then talk about it. Come on, set up the ceremonial department, and invite Mr. Yongnian. ”

Zhang Song didn't expect Liu Ze to accompany him personally, this face was big enough, and the joy that came suddenly filled his heart.

The Ministry of Rites is less than three miles away from the palace, Liu Ze is strolling in front, who dares to take the car again, Xi Zhicai is on the side, Liu Ze said: "Zhicai, Zhang Song sent the Yizhou topography map, Wen Chang won Baishui, Jiameng two passes, it is a good opportunity to send troops, I don't know who can be the general?" ”

Xi Zhicai said: "Wen has lived in Hanzhong for a long time, and he must understand the terrain of Shuzhong, so why not take Wen Chang as the main general?" ”

"The situation in Shuzhong is complicated, and many ethnic groups coexist, I'm afraid Wen Chang will not be able to do it. Kong Ming is in Wa Island, and he has a lot of heart in his dealings, what do you think? ”

"Kong Ming is a young talent, resourceful, and in a few words, he makes the Japanese attack each other, and in two years, the situation is settled, and he is really eloquent."

"Okay, pass the book to Kong Ming, come to Luoyang immediately."

Zhuge Liang has had a smooth ride in the past two years. The men and horses of Himi Gonghu swept away the small countries of Honshu, and their strength rose sharply, and they were ambitious, and they were ready to ascend the throne as the emperor after taking Hokkaido, learn from China, and live an emperor addiction; Unexpectedly, the Han army landed on 6 Shiguo Island, plundered all the young people on the island, and then went to Honshu Island.

Beimi Gonghu sent someone to find Zhuge Liang's theory, Zhuge Liang smiled coldly and said to the envoy: "Go back and tell your king that the Han army should be invited by the people of Benzhou and the four countries to send troops to restore the lost territory. ”

The envoy said: "My king and General Zhuge have an agreement first, why did he go back on his word? ”

Zhuge Liang said: "Can the people and things obtained by your king be implemented in accordance with the agreement?" ”

The messenger opened his mouth for a long time, unable to answer, Beimi Gonghu is also cunning and cunning, the original agreement with Zhuge Liang is divided into three sevens, with the expansion of the territory, the things in hand are sent out, it is really difficult, not to mention three seven, the one given to Zhuge Liang is not even two percent, Zhuge Liang is cross-examined, how can the messenger answer? The messenger walked away, and the young men of Shikoku and Honshu continued to storm the army of the Dog Slave Kingdom.

Beimi Gonghu knew that Zhuge Liang was powerful, thought for a long time, and sent someone to send a large number of goods and beauties to try to paralyze Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang did not refuse, and rewarded the wealth and goods to the young and strong people, and the Japanese people who got the things even called the Han general wise, and cut down the dog slave people. The dog slave people were defeated and retreated, and had no choice but to retreat to Hokkaido Island. The island is cold and there are not many inhabitants, so Himi Yukhu is ready to stay on this small island.

Zhuge Liang saw that Beimi's bow retreated, and the Han army ship immediately transported the young men of Benzhou over. Beimigong was dumbfounded, and his intestines were green with regret, why did he deceive General Zhuge by himself? Such a character can't afford to offend himself! Yu Guoqing came to kill, so he had to use all the soldiers to kill in Hokkaido, and the blood flowed like a river.

Zhuge Liang slowly cleaned up the mess in the rear, gathered the stranded young people, and sent them to China, and the teenagers under the age of fifteen were taken care of in a centralized manner. The fields were cultivated by old men and women over sixty years old, and anyway, the steady arrival of the country's bachelors was just right to fill the vacancies. When many large families heard that the fields were cheap, they brought their cattle and seeds to buy the land, and they were ready to become big landlords.

The army of Himi Gonghu expanded to 250,000, and it was battle-hardened and had good combat strength, but it could not help but have many young and strong people, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. One side is fighting for life, and the other side is fighting for revenge. Beimi Gonghu saw that his men and horses were getting fewer and fewer, and he wanted to die, and if he continued to fight like this, both sides would have to finish playing, and Beimi Gonghu sent envoys to meet the leaders of the countries to discuss the dismissal of the army and make peace.

As soon as the leaders of more than 20 small countries met, when you humbled our bow and called us, we all bowed our knees and begged you, and we didn't see you soften your heart, and now you are exhausted, and in turn, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world. At that moment, he sternly rejected the request of Himi Gonghu.

Beimigong shouted in despair, let his brother take care of the army, and quietly came to see Zhuge Liang. Looking at the humble bow crying on his knees, Zhuge Liang asked, "King Beimi, what does this mean?" ”

"General Zhuge , Grandpa Zhuge , please be kind and save me."

"King Beimi crisscrosses the island, no one dares to fight, why bother people?"

"Don't you know, wow, the leaders of the countries on the island of Honshu, gather people and horses, and fight with my army on the island of Hokkaido! At present, our army is less than 30,000, and most of the people have been killed. ”

"Hmph, King Himi, it's your own fault. The original agreement clearly stated that if the king really did it, why would today's disaster come about? ”

Bei Mi Gong shouted: "I was wrong, please ask Grandpa Zhuge to save my people." ”

"How many people are there in the kingdom?"

"More than 100,000."

"Well, I'll fund you with some supplies for your soldiers and help you destroy 100,000 horses. How much more have you plundered? ”

"There are not many hasty evacuations." Speaking of things, Himi Gonghu felt bitter in his heart again.

"I don't want much from you, 300,000 loads of grain and grass are enough."

Beimigong shouted: "Our army never has so much grain and grass, if Grandpa Zhuge wants, he can.. I can give you 10,000 quintals. ”

Zhuge Liang figured out the bottom of Beimi's bow call, called Li Xin and said: "General Li Xin, you lead 5,000 soldiers to help King Beimi, and destroy the 100,000 horses that are against the king." When you come back, remember to bring back 10,000 loads of grain and grass. ”

Himi Gong asked suspiciously, "How can 5,000 soldiers fight 100,000 horses?" ”

Li Xin said: "Could it be that there is not a single soldier under the king?" ”

Zhuge Liang said: "King Beimi relax, you just need to listen to General Li Xin's arrangement, and keep the 100,000 horses destroyed." ”

Beimi Gonghu came out with Li Xin with half-belief and suspicion.

When they came to Hokkaido, the soldiers of the Dog Slave Kingdom were besieged on the slopes of a mountain near the sea, and the people of the opposite countries lived at the foot of the mountain. It seems that he is ready to trap the soldiers of the dog slave country. Seeing the situation, Li Xin shouted to Himi Gong and said, "Please order the king's soldiers to cut down rattans and collect hay, I will be of great use." ”

He did not dare to disobey him, and ordered his soldiers to do so immediately. There are many hay and rattan on the hillside, and in less than an hour, countless people have been collected.

Li Xin made a large ball out of rattan with his own hands, stuffed with hay and a tightly wrapped cloth bag, and then ordered his soldiers to make it in the center, and the cloth bag must be placed in the center of the ball. I don't know why, but Zhuge Liang said that as long as you listen to Li Xin, the 100,000 army can be wiped out with a snap of your fingers. When it gets dark, tens of thousands of rattan balls are made and piled together, which is spectacular.

Li Xin asked Himi Gonghu, "King, I wonder how many horses your army still has?" ”

"There are still 10,000 war horses."

"Okay, you divide the 10,000 horses into five teams, each team of 2,000 people, once the enemy army under the mountain is in chaos, the five cavalry will assault, and the foot soldiers will then enter."

Seeing that Li Xin was full of confidence, Beimigong couldn't help but nodded.

In the second half of the night, Li Xin ordered someone to push the ball, quietly approached the foot of the mountain, and saw that it was not far from the enemy, Li Xin raised the torch in his hand and gave a signal. Tens of thousands of balls were ignited, and in an instant they turned into fireballs, and the soldiers pushed hard, and the fireballs rolled down the hillside towards the enemy camp. The dark night sky was suddenly half illuminated. When the night watchmen of the nations saw the great ball of fire tumbling in, they did not know what it was, and they began to shout and scream. Fireballs tumbled into the camp, ran into obstacles, bounced, and flew around, igniting countless tents. The soldiers who slept in a daze came out in their clothes in a daze, the gunpowder pack in the center of the fireball was also ignited, the explosion sounded, and the people and horses who exploded flew wildly, and the camp was in chaos. The men and horses gathered under the hillside were like headless flies in the firelight, and they were clearly and clearly seen by the bow of Beimi, and they were overjoyed in their hearts, looking at Li Xin, waiting for his order.

The wind on the seashore was strong, and the fire borrowed the wind, and the wind helped the fire, and in less than half an hour, the camp became a great sea of fire. The soldiers were lucky enough to run out of the camp, and those who were not so lucky were killed in the fire. Li Xin saw that the situation was almost over, and said to Beimigong: "King, let's attack." ”

Beimi Gonghu had been waiting for Li Xin's words for a long time, and immediately shouted loudly: "The cavalry attacked, and the foot soldiers followed." ”

More than 30,000 soldiers of the dog slave country began to charge. Li Xin watched as Beimi's bow shouted and killed the first soldiers, and said to his five thousand soldiers: "Bring all the warships on the island back to Honshu, and if you can't bring them, burn them with fire!" ”

Li Xin returned to Benzhou, and Zhuge Liang also received Liu Ze's order to prepare to leave for China. Li Xin and Zhuge Liang have worked together for many years, and they have thrown themselves to the ground with Zhuge Liang's admiration, and when they heard that Zhuge Liang returned to China, his heart felt like he had no backbone, and his eyes were moist, Zhuge Liang smiled: "General Li doesn't have to be sad, the army rotates every three years, and it looks like it's about to reach the schedule." After I left, Dong Zhao and Dong Gongren took over. When you and I meet, remember to block the Hokkaido sea route and leave it to fend for itself. After Dong Gong came, how to deal with it, just obey the order. ”

Li Xin said: "Remember the general's advice. ”

Zhuge Liang bid farewell to Li Xin and his staff, boarded the big ship, and set sail. The big ship sailed less than a hundred miles, and suddenly the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the wind surged with huge waves, and the bluffing Zhuge Liang and the sailors on the ship were as white as earth.
