Originally, with Yuan Lian's identity and status, he was qualified to take on this important responsibility, but since his previous hesitation on whether he should prevent the Guangling rebellion in advance, not only Jin Hou, but also Liu Ji and Mrs. Mi were suspicious of him.
Therefore, it is natural that this matter can no longer be handed over to him.
It's just that what Jin Hou didn't expect was that Mrs. Mi suddenly took the initiative to ask about this possibility.
At that time, Jin Hou didn't think much about it, so he truthfully told Mrs. Mi what he thought.
As soon as Mrs. Mi heard that there was an opportunity to persuade the Guangling army to surrender, she took the initiative to ask Ying to take on this important task.
In fact, there is another person who is also capable of taking on this important task, and this person is Liu Ji, who has just been forced to trap and kill the three Chen brothers. However, only when Mrs. Mi recognized Liu Ji as Liu Bei's righteous son, he had enough prestige to persuade the soldiers of the Guangling Army.
At that time, no matter how much Jin Hou wanted to dissuade Mrs. Mi, it was no longer possible?
Mrs. Mi did this, firstly, she really didn't want to see Xuzhou people kill each other again, and secondly, she wanted to save some strength for her husband Liu Beidu.
Compared with the defenders in Xiapi City, these soldiers from Guangling County, however, Chen Deng personally selected and trained the soldiers, in addition to often fighting with Yuan Shu's army, this army also often fought with small groups of troops from Eastern Wu.
For a long time, after Sun Ce took Wu County and Danyang County, he always wanted to take Guangling County first. After all, the forces controlled by Sun Ce, in addition to the relatively powerful Yuan Shu army, are Guangling County. It is also a well-known thing that Guangling County is semi-independent of Liu Bei's Xuzhou system, which is not only Liu Bei's trust in Chen Deng, but also a compromise between Liu Bei and the Chen family in Xuzhou.
It's just that Liu Bei didn't expect that the Chen family would really betray him. Even though Chen Deng was not involved in this incident and was placed under house arrest by his father, Chen Deng's three younger brothers and his father were all masterminds of the rebellion. Therefore, even now that Chen Deng has regained control of Guangling County, he and Liu Bei will no longer be able to return to the relationship of mutual trust between monarchs and ministers.
A rebellion that is likely to lead to the collapse of the entire Xuzhou system, in this way, Jin Hou, a small person who is not famous, was eliminated by a little trick.
The only thing that made Jin Hou unhappy was that Mrs. Mi didn't let her subordinates directly kill Chen Deng's fourth brother Chen Pan.
Under her hint in advance, the people sent out by Mrs. Mi only left Chen Pan and the youngest of the guards beside him, and the rest were all killed on the spot. Chen Pan was transported into Xiapi City, and the bodies of Chen Da and Chen Tong were also transported back together.
Because Chen Pan was injured, Mrs. Mi also specially invited the best doctor in Xiapi City for him.
However, Jin Hou did not participate in the whole process, and he knew very well in his heart that if the doctor who treated Chen Pan could not immediately dig out the entire piece of flesh from the arrow wound he suffered, the possibility of Chen Pan being rescued was close to zero.
Arrows with condiments, especially injuries that can be healed so easily?
On the orders of Mrs. Mi, Jin Hou and Liu Ji dismantled all the 15,000 soldiers of the Guangling Army and scattered them into the defenders of Xiapi City, and all the generals of the Guangling Army were isolated.
In front of them, Liu Ji made it very clear that he temporarily let them leave the army, not because he wanted to settle accounts after the autumn and kill them, but because he was going to assign them to the defenders of Xiapi City to continue to be officers in the future, but this matter had to be reported to the lord first, that is, Liu Bei. After all, Mrs. Mi is just Liu Bei's wife, and it is best to be less involved in personnel appointments.
Five days later, Mi Zhu hurriedly rushed to Xiapi City overnight with 3,000 cavalry that had been improvised together.
The Mi brothers were able to dedicate their flower-like sister to Liu Bei, so they were naturally very optimistic about their benevolent lord, and they panicked when they heard that the Chen family, the largest family in Xuzhou, had launched a rebellion in Guangling.
Mi Zhu didn't think that relying on a child like Jin Hou, a very low-level junior officer and Liu Ji would be able to easily sweep away the rebels, but since the treacherous plot of the Chen clan had been discovered in the city, the city could still hold out for a while longer. Therefore, he delayed for two more days in Donghai County and took out all the Mi family's wealth, which was finally enough for 3,000 cavalry.
Who knows, Mi Zhu hurried and hurried, but still didn't catch up.
When Mi Zhu entered the city and listened to the detailed statements of his cronies who stayed in the city, he was shocked, he really didn't expect that his sister would be so bold and dare to go out of the city in person to persuade the rebels to surrender.
So, as soon as Mi Zhu saw his sister, he reprimanded him very angrily: "Sister, how can you be so bold, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, if one is not good, you have to put your life into it." At that time, there will be more people affected by this matter, and the Liu Ji you are optimistic about will inevitably be punished by the lord! ”
"Got it, big brother, little sister knows it's wrong." After listening to her brother's reprimand, Mrs. Mi first carefully made amends, and then said with a smile: "However, taking advantage of this opportunity, the Chen clan was completely eliminated in one fell swoop, and Lang Jun's biggest opponent in Xuzhou disappeared, and his foundation became more solid." When the time comes, who in Xuzhou will dare to betray Lang Jun? ”
Mrs. Mi is right, once the banner of the Chen family falls, Liu Bei will not give face to other families in Xuzhou next. The policies related to the Tuntian and talent promotion plan have been implemented in the counties and townships of Xuzhou, and there will be no more resistance.
That's all a great thing.
didn't wait for Mi Zhu to speak, "Alas......! Mrs. Mi suddenly sighed and sighed: "Big brother, you and I still underestimated Jin Jue's kid at the beginning, and at the same time, I also underestimated this Jin Hou!" ”
"Who's to say it isn't?" Mi Zhu nodded when he heard this, and also sighed.
"Big brother, you will definitely stay this time, it is better to choose a sister of the right age from the clan and marry her to Jin Hou. Do you think it's appropriate? Mrs. Mi suddenly remembered that Jin Hou was a young boy with a low background, and he must have not yet decided on a marriage, so she made a suggestion to Mi Zhu.
It's just that what the Mi brothers and sisters didn't expect was that Mrs. Mi's suggestion was too late.
Because, on the second day of stabilizing the rebels, Jin Hou personally went to Jiang's house outside the city with a heavy gift and came to the door to ask for guilt.
After Jiang Dashan saw Jin Hou, instead of blaming him, he also pulled him into his house very enthusiastically.
