Chapter 389: Yu Ban
Since Pei Qing was able to test the loyalty of the generals, the grasp of those captives has become more accurate, as long as he can collect the other party's genes, he can know at any time whether the other party still maintains the original intention of the old master.
Among Pei Qing's captives, the most important ones are Yu Ban, Lu Yi and Fu Zhu, at present, Pei Qing has learned that Lu Yi's loyalty to Yuan Shao has dropped to 75, which means that there is a great possibility of being surrendered, and Yu Ban's situation is similar, on the surface, it seems that he is at home, but his loyalty to Cao Cao is only 79, although it is already very close to 80, but after all, it is not yet 80, and he still has the right to say that it is possible.
Only that frustrated professor looked a little troublesome, because his loyalty to Yuan Shao reached 92, which meant that there was almost no possibility of frustration surrendering, but Pei Qing knew that as long as the frustrated award was less than 100, it meant that there was hope, so in his heart he was still looking forward to the day when frustrated he would surrender in the future.
Although it is possible for Lu Yi to surrender, it is a little far away from Pei Qing, and Yu Ban is now in Mount Tai, only a few hundred miles away from Pei Qing's Xiapi country, and he can arrive in a few days.
So Pei Qing decided to surrender to the ban first.
A few days later, Yu Ban was escorted to Xiapi, this was the first time he saw Pei Qing, and when he saw Pei Qing's young figure, he couldn't help but feel extremely shocked, because he never thought that Pei Qing was so young, looking several years younger than him.
"Jiangdong Sun Ce is young and heroic, less than twenty years old to control the four counties of Jiangdong, Pei Gong's age is about the same as him, which is even more remarkable, now he is a general, Zuo Prime Minister, control Sili, Liangzhou, Yuzhou, Bingzhou, Xuzhou and Jingzhou's Nanyang and Yanzhou's Taishan, as well as Youzhou's Dai County, under his command of no less than two or three hundred thousand, can conquer the generals who are used to fighting, and there are countless people who strategize, such strength, such an age, it is simply unprecedented, is the world already the world of teenagers? I boast of being wise and brave in the ban, and I can be a famous general in the world, but I am nothing in front of them, and I am simply ashamed of myself. ”
Yu Ban sighed secretly, his first impression of Pei Qing was very good, and he was very impressed by his demeanor, so after seeing Pei Qing, he couldn't help but arch his hand and said: "The sinner Yu Ban has seen Pei Gong." ”
However, he saw Pei Qing smiling and helping Yu Ban up, and said to him: "Wen Ze doesn't have to be polite, he has long admired Wen Ze is brave and steady, but everything is too much, as the so-called rigidity is easy to break, the reason why you lost Mount Tai is not a crime of war, but because you have strict military discipline, and you can't look down on Wu Dun and other four people who are also Taishan generals, plus Zang Xuangao who went to surrender has a relationship with them and is the same brother, so there is today's loss, in fact, this time only Zang Xuangao can successfully persuade the four of them to surrender, and it will not be possible to replace any of them. I hope Wen Ze can remember this lesson in the future, don't judge heroes by their origins, when I opened the Han Dynasty, the younger brother of Emperor Gaozu, Prime Minister Xiao He, and the next Cao Shen of Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, which one was not born in cloth? General Fan Xu is still a dog slaughterer, but their achievements are not looked up to by many of our descendants, in fact, I was only the leader of the Yellow Turban Army before, the most important thing for a person is his own ability, not his background, and we must pay attention to his current ability, not before, everyone has the possibility of progress, if you look at people with the same eyes, it is likely to suffer a big loss. ”
After Pei Qing finished speaking, he personally untied Yu Ban's rope, and then said with a smile: "Since you resolutely refuse to surrender, then let's go, the so-called twisted melon is not sweet, since you are unwilling to surrender, I will not force you to stay." ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Yu Ban was extremely surprised, he originally thought that Pei Qing was likely to persuade him to surrender bitterly, but he naturally refused again and again, and finally was excited by Pei Qing's righteousness, so he agreed to surrender.
But he didn't expect that he didn't think about it, Pei Qing just helped him analyze the reasons for the defeat of this battle, and at the same time taught him not to underestimate people in the future, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past, and then let himself go.
"Let's go? But where do I go? Yu Ban couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this, he was now defeated in Mount Tai, and this battle lost the entire county, which led to the defeat of Cao Cao in a big battle, and lost tens of thousands of troops, even if he really went back, I'm afraid Cao Cao would not let himself go, even if Cao Cao wanted to let go of himself, but how could the officials under his command let go of themselves easily? At that time, he will be dismissed from office at least and executed at worst, and the final outcome can be imagined.
So Yu Ban had no choice but to stop and sighed at Pei Qing: "If I can get Pei Gong's generosity and spare my life, I am already grateful, how dare I be so brazen and go out like this?" Besides, don't hide it from Pei Gong, now there is no way out, I lost Taishan County, caused irreparable losses to Cao Gong, and I have already violated military law, I am usually in charge of military law very strictly, and it can even be said to be harsh, this time I will definitely die if I go back, even if Cao Gong is willing to spare me, those who are usually punished by my military law will definitely not accept it, and ask for strict treatment in accordance with military law, and on the other hand, I was originally a prisoner, but now I was put back by Pei Gong, how could Cao Gong not doubt it? ”
"Well, that's reasonable," Pei Qing nodded, and muttered: "I also said before, Wen Ze's character is too strong, but rigidity is easy to break, although blindly relying on military law to suppress can help you quickly establish your prestige, but this is like Qin's tyranny, although the law is strict, but there are always people who break the law, and finally die in a short time, and my Han is a tyrant, simply put, it is the outer Confucian and internal law, the so-called legal principle is nothing more than human feelings, and when strictly enforcing the law, you should also show your love for the soldiers, During the Warring States Period, Wu Qi governed the army strictly, but he also cared about the soldiers, the soldiers had abscesses, he personally sucked pus for the soldiers, he ate the same meals as the soldiers in the army, dressed plainly, and the soldiers were willing to serve him, which is worth our reflection. ”
Yu Ban was immediately touched after hearing this, he sighed for a long time, and then said: "It's a pity that I know this truth too late, otherwise it won't lead to the defeat of Mount Tai, and now I have nowhere to go, I don't know if Pei Gong can take me in?" If you can get Pei Gong not to give up, it is good to be willing to go to the soup for Pei Gong! ”
"Oh? If I can buy Wen Ze's such a general's assistance, I naturally can't ask for it, but I don't know if Wen Ze is out of sincerity? Or is it just perfunctory to me? Pei Qing looked at Yu Ban in front of him and asked lightly.
