Chapter 309: The state shepherd's change
On the first day of the fifth month of the first year of the first year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu killed the ox in Youzhou to sacrifice the flag, when the East Cao Peng Wei You, thinking that Gongsun Zhan's crime was not justified, Yibing came to the city and ordered Gongsun Zhan to surrender automatically. was beheaded by Liu Yu for hindering the dispersal of the army's heart.
Such a move immediately had a deterrent effect, and all the civil and military forces closed their voices together, which really served the purpose of a sound.
At that time, Cheng Wei, who was guarding against Lu Peng at the garrison pass, couldn't help but feel a chill in the back of his neck, which should have been his own result, so he strengthened his determination to serve Lu Peng.
Liu Yu, who was full of ambition, a literati who couldn't even count the number of soldiers and didn't even have any military knowledge, led a rabble of 100,000 people, known as 200,000, to attack Gongsun Zhan.
Before leaving, Liu Yu told the soldiers: "Don't hurt too many people, don't burn down the house, just kill Gongsun Zhan."
Hearing this military order, countless representatives of the family who participated in the sacrifice of the flag and went out sighed at Liu Yu's benevolence. But Zhao Cai, who was left behind in Youzhou, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The battle between the two armies was originally a brutal battle with the aim of achieving victory by unscrupulous means, but as a result, your general order was issued, which turned this war into two children's games.
The most important thing is that as soon as this general order of yours came out, it completely tied the hands and feet of the soldiers, so how could the timid soldiers win the war?
When he returned to the mansion, he sighed at his wife Zhao Ai'er and said, "This time, Lord Zhou Mu will definitely lose the battle, what can I do." ”
Zhao Aier is not a simple character, this girl is deeply influenced by Lao Tzu Taoism, her posterity, biography, has appeared in Taoist classics many times, it can be seen that she is far-sighted. Hearing her husband say this, he said at the time: "You are loyal to the state pastor, this time, the state pastor will be defeated and killed, your responsibility is not to sit here and sigh for a long time, but to think about avenging the state pastor." ”
Zhao Cai spread his hands and said helplessly: "I'm just a mere scribe, poetry and poetry are familiar to me, leading the army to fight, can only harm those soldiers who follow me, not to mention, the state pastor has taken away all the people, what is left for me is just 3,000 old and weak, I am really powerless, and I can't help it." ”
Zhao Ai'er smiled indifferently: "If the husband is ready to avenge the state pastor, but he has a strong arm, why not use it?" ”
At that time, Zhao should raise his head for unknown reasons and look at his wife.
Zhao Ai'er pointed to the east: "Lu Peng, I've been peeking at Youzhou for a long time, this time the state pastor came out, just giving him the opportunity to snatch Youzhou, how can he give up easily?" I think that in just a few days, Lu Peng will lead troops to the city, and when the time comes, the husband can raise the city to surrender to Lu Peng, and with the help of Lu Peng's hand, he will avenge Lord Zhoumu. ”
Zhao Cai said suspiciously: "Now Lu Peng is making every effort to attack and stabilize the counties of western Liaoning, and he has no time to look west, even if he has that heart, but Cheng Wei took 5,000 men and horses to cut off the main way for him to come west." Although Cheng Xi was not allowed to be seen by the state pastor, but before the war was unknown, this person would never betray the state pastor, Lu Peng's troops had been completely dispersed to occupy the four counties of western Liaoning, and it was impossible to use his limited strength to attack the fortress guarded by Cheng Xi's five thousand soldiers.
Zhao Aier smiled, took out the fortune calculation utensils, and fiddled with the tortoiseshell copper coin in her hand, which jingled.
Zhao Ai'er got Guo Shaoyao's legendary Men Dunjia, and he had a lot of experience on this, at this time he was deducing the situation in Youzhou, and after a while, he said with a smile: "Cheng Xi, disgusted by the state pastor, has been separated from the state pastor, I think this time he took the initiative to ask Ying, guarding the eastern fortress, and definitely has the intention of asking Lu Peng for credit, and husband, you were born in Yuyang, and you also see how prosperous Yuyang is now under the governance of General Lu Peng, as the old man of Yuyang, don't you want the people of the world to be under the governance of Lu Peng, and return to peace and stability?" ”
Under the influence of his wife, Zhao Gai was also convinced of Qimen Dunjia, so he poked his head out and asked in a low voice: "Could it be that in the hexagram, what has been explained?" ”
Zhao Aier said with a smile: "The world is in chaos, the hero will come out, I don't know that there are other heroes in the world, but in our Youzhou, only Lu Peng is alone, and the husband should not miss this opportunity." ”
So, Zhao should fall into deep thought, and the husband and wife sat like this until the night slowly fell.
At this time, one of Zhao Gai's confidant servants came in quietly, and then whispered in Zhao Gai's ear: "Engaged in Gongsun Ji, suddenly under the pretense of the state pastor's command, he took the family with his family, abandoned his property, and left the West Gate. ”
At that time, Zhao should be shocked, Liu Yu's subordinates engaged in Gongsun Ji, because of the same surname and was treated by Gongsun Zhan, he left so suddenly, must have gone to Gongsun Zhan Gaomi, originally the state pastor sent troops, he should take a surprise strategy, a surprise attack on the battle-hardened Gongsun Zhan, taking advantage of Gongsun Zhan's division of troops everywhere, unguarded opportunities, hit him by surprise, so that there is still some chance of victory.
As a result, Liu Yu, a nerd, actually wanted to do something to send troops to sacrifice the flag, and to engage in Zhou Rite and War Music, so that the news of the troops had been made known to everyone in the entire Youzhou, and it had lost its hard-won effect.
And once this Gongsun Ji is running to Gongsun Chan and telling the whole military plan, then, a commander who doesn't understand military knowledge at all, with a group of family armies, a real rabble, and then there are the same rules of benevolence and righteousness as Song Xianggong at the beginning, now, it is difficult for the state pastor not to fail.
However, Zhao should still be loyal to Liu Yu, and he still has to make the last effort for him, so he suddenly got up and immediately asked loudly: "How long has the grandson Lao'er gone?" ”
The servant hurriedly said, "It's been an hour since I came out. ”
Zhao stomped his feet: "Damn, damn." "I don't know if this is to say that Gongsun Ji deserves to die, or if this slave deserves to die. Then he gave a loud command to the pale servant, "Prepare the chariots and horses, take the warriors of our family, and follow me immediately to chase that grandson." ”
Zhao Ai'er looked at her husband who hurriedly walked out, put away the tortoiseshell old money on the table and sighed: "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, it's already a centrifugal and detached person, why force it?" ”
Zhao Cai's last efforts finally came to naught, Gongsun Ji was still not caught up in the end, looking at the dark night sky, the road hidden in the darkness, Zhao Cai could only sigh and admit this fate, the next step is how to plan how to avenge the state pastor.
By the time the depressed Zhao returned to Youzhou at dawn, the city had already changed the Dawang flag, and a big Lu flag was fluttering in the morning light.
