Chapter 17 Zang Ba lurks in Taishan County
Gongsun Kang persuaded him from a different angle: "Mr. Gonghe, Tian Feng, Judge, and Fengji, it is enough for two of them to help Yuan Benchu." You are all talents, and you can do things according to whomever you want. But there are many people, and as soon as there is a conflict between your suggestions, Yuan Benchu doesn't know who to listen to, so if he doesn't make a choice, it is tantamount to making the worst choice. Your temporary stay with me is the greatest help to Yuan Benchu! β
This was very true, and he had to admit that Gongsun Kang was right, so he sent his entourage back to see Yuan Shao and said: Champion Hou has promised to send troops. But the two families fight their own battles, which is not considered an alliance, and whoever lays down the territory will own it. He stayed in Qingzhou, regarded as a liaison officer, and returned to Jizhou after this battle.
These words were promised by Gongsun Kang to give him an explanation, so that he could give an explanation to Yuan Shao. As for what will happen after this battle, no one can say.
History is very different, who wins and who loses, only God knows.
Gao Ran has already conquered most of the northern Jibei country, and Cao Cao will draw out 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiahoudun will bring people to the rescue.
Gongsun Kang saw that there was a advantage to take advantage of, so he sent someone to tell Xu Rong and Zang Ba to send troops to attack Taishan County.
Because Zang Ba's hometown is in Taishan County, he has a lot of potential influence in Taishan County, so Gongsun Kang arranged for Zang Ba to attack the main attack, and Xu Rong was responsible for receiving and attacking Cao Cao's reinforcements.
Zang Ba is a legend in Taishan County, and the story of him and his brothers Sun Guan, Wu Dun, and Yin Li is widely spread, and most of the folk rangers worship him.
Zang Ba's current subordinates have many hometown soldiers, all of whom admired his reputation and defected from Taishan County.
Now Zang Ba received an order from Gongsun Kang, he and Xu Rong met their heads, and after a good division of labor, they returned to Langxi County and began to arrange to capture Taishan County.
The first is to order his Taishan disciples to select some influential soldiers in the countryside and county town, secretly sneak back to various parts of Taishan County, and secretly contact their fathers and villagers to make internal responses.
The second is to straighten out the soldiers and horses, collect grain and grass, repair weapons, and make all preparations for war.
Gongsun Kang will not just give an order out of nowhere, Jia Xu has already mobilized weapons and equipment, grain and grass, bed crossbows, stone throwing vehicles, etc., and within a month, they have all been handed over to Zang Ba and Xu Rong one after another. The remaining gap of their years of war has been filled, and the weapons and equipment of the entire army have been updated and renewed!
Taishan County: Fenggao; Taishan Taishou: Lu Qian, Lu Zike.
Lu Qian is brave and strategic, and he also knows people well, so he is a relatively shrewd and wise general.
Lu Qian's saber is a well-known historical allusion, but it is worth mentioning:
LΓΌ Qian served as the assassin of Xuzhou, and when he was appointed as the general of Weilu. He asked Wang Xiang, a native of Langyu, to serve as a special driver in Xuzhou, and entrusted him with all the affairs of civil affairs, and the world praised him for being able to appoint sages.
At the beginning, Lu Qian had a saber, and after the craftsman saw it, he thought that the person who wore this knife would definitely ascend to the position of the three princes. Lu Qian said to Wang Xiang: "I am not a person who can be the third prince, this knife may be harmful to me." And you have the amount of public aid, so I will give it to you. β
Wang Xiang resolutely refused, and Lu Qian forced him to accept.
Later, Wang Xiangguan went to Taibao. Before Wang Xiang died, he gave this knife to his brother Wang Lan, saying, "Your descendants must be prosperous enough to match this knife."
Sure enough, among Wang Lan's descendants, there was Wang Dao, one of the founders of the Eastern Jin Dynasty regime, whose Langya Wang family was full of talents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty and became a glorious family for hundreds of years. The so-called "old Wang Xie Tang Qianyan" refers to the Lang evil Wang family.
Get back to business. On this day, Liu Laosan, a butcher in Fenggao City, was selling meat at the market. The weather had begun to get hot, and Liu Laosan was shirtless, revealing his dark chest hair. While cursing the hellish weather, he quickly chopped the ribs that Aunt Wang asked for in the neighborhood quickly.
Although Liu Laosan has big shoulders and a round waist, his appearance is not vicious. He was born and raised in Fenggao, and the neighbors all grew up watching him, so he knew his roots and was not afraid of him.
Liu's butcher shop has been passed down for three generations, never short of two catties, and has a good reputation, so many people like to buy meat from him.
After sending away Aunt Wang, who had a broken mouth, Liu Laosan took a long breath. Let a big man listen to the long time of the East family Li Jia, it is also difficult for Liu Laosan.
At this moment, the curtain of the door rang, and another person entered. Liu Laosan fixed his eyes and saw that it was the iron buddy Zhang Wu. Zhang Wu also shouted that it was hot, scooped a scoop of cold water from the water tank and drank it.
Liu Laosan asked: "It's still early, you don't go to sell a few more loads of vegetables, but you come to me to be lazy." β
"I have something important to tell you," Zhang Wu lowered his voice, and at the same time lifted the bamboo curtain to see if there was anyone outside the door.
"You're a vegetable seller, do you have something to do?" Liu Laosan thought it was funny.
"The Li family is back!" Zhang Wu walked into Liu Laosan's side and whispered.
"Huh?" Liu Laosan was startled and almost cut his hand.
The Li family is also their playmate who grew up together, but he likes to play knives and guns, and ran away from home the year before last to join his idol Zang Ba in Langxie County. It is said that he mixed well, and he also became the chief of Zang Ba's personal soldiers, in charge of 10 soldiers!
How dare he come back? Aren't you afraid of being caught?
"The eldest man of the Li family asked us to go to his second brother's house for a drink in the evening. Be careful, don't let anyone see it. I'm going to inform someone. After Zhang Wu finished speaking quickly, he flashed out.
Liu Laosan's heart is no longer calm, and he doesn't know how to spend the day. I can't remember how many catties of meat was sold today.
In the evening, Liu Laosan closed the shop early and went to the door. Carrying a few pounds of pork out of the door.
When someone saw it, they laughed at him: "But go to a good house to eat and drink?" β
Liu Laosan smiled innocently and didn't talk much.
Because he often eats and drinks with the hair boys, there is nothing abnormal, who doesn't have a friend?
It was dark, and there were 7 or 8 people gathered in the house of the second eldest of the Li family, all of whom were friends who grew up together. Sitting on the top hand was a black-faced man in his thirties, and he was the Li family leader.
The eldest man of the Li family picked up a bowl of turbid water and wine and said, "When I come back this time, I have a great fortune to give to you." β
Liu Laosan and others are all people in the market, the kind of people who dare not rebel. When they heard the great wealth, their hearts trembled.
Zhang Wu asked: "But the deal of killing heads?" β
The eldest man of the Li family smiled coldly and said, "It's not quite a thing." β
Then the hearts of the people were put in their stomachs.
The Li family said again: "You are all natives and familiar with every corner of the city. This time, I'm just letting you lead the way, and you can go home and sleep. β
He waved his hand, and the second child of the Li family took out a cloth bag and poured it on the table, but it was a pile of broken gold, which made people dizzy.
