Chapter Seventy-One: Liao Chun
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Ye Zhao is now no longer an unknown person in the Liang country, not to mention the name of the god who judges the case, only since the Taiping Sect rebellion, Ye Zhao expelled Liang Fa overnight, kept Suiyang, and then several times outnumbered, and Liang Fa won the battle, this time Liang Fa gathered tens of thousands of Taiping Sect in Liang to besiege Suiyang, not only failed to capture, but lost his life, but also made Ye Zhao's reputation in this Liang country like the sky, when the Han army outside the city hung up Ye Zhao's handsome flag, the morale that was finally encouraged was low here.
On the city wall, Liao Chun and his deputy general Du Yuan stood on the wall, holding a pergola, watching the formation of the Han army, but seeing the blue sky with the banner, the queue was neat, the armor was clear, and the four thousand troops were arrayed outside the city, without the slightest sense of thinness, nor as crowded as the Yellow Turban Army.
"Yuan Jian, I don't want Ye Zhao to come here in person!" Beside Liao Chun, after the Yellow Turban Thief General Du Yuan saw Ye Zhao's banner, he looked at Liao Chun with some panic.
Liao Chun frowned slightly, glanced at the soldiers left and right, and shouted in a low voice: "Don't mess up your own formation, General Ernai, you are so flustered at this moment, what do you think of the soldiers of the three armies?" ”
Du Yuan calmed down a little, but his expression was still a little afraid, and he said in a low voice: "Now that the Liang Kingdom is gone, why don't we lead the crowd to break through and go to Yingchuan, how about running to Bocai Dashuai?" ”
"You think that Ye Zhao will let me go so easily?" Liao Chun shook his head and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, I have ordered people to go to Yingchuan to ask for help, you and I only need to hold on, then Ye Zhao is no matter how powerful it is, with a strong city as a barrier, he will not be able to break through the city in a short time." ”
As he was talking, he saw a general in the Han army in the distance galloping out of the army and coming straight to the city.
Fighter?
Liao Chun frowned, looked at the person who came, he didn't look like a fighting general, and was wondering to himself, but he saw the general of the Han army stopped at the place of the arrow under the city, raised his head and said loudly to the head of the city: "I am Sima Dingli under the command of Ye Zhao, the minister of Liang, I don't know who General Liao Chun is?" ”
Liao Chun and Du Yuan glanced at each other, stepped forward and said loudly: "This is Liao Chun, Ye Zhao asked you to come, what are you doing?" ”
"The eight counties of Liang State, now outside of Meng County, the remaining seven counties have all been recovered by our army, the thief leader Liang Fa and Pei Yuanshao have been awarded, and the rest of the Taiping thieves, my lord has not made any more killing, just put down his weapons and surrender, my lord is not to blame in the past, the general trend has gone, my lord heard that the leader of Liao is a wealthy family, why should he be a thief? Why not lay down your arms and go out of the city and surrender? ”
When Liao Chun heard this, he couldn't help but be silent.
Different from the ordinary yellow scarf, Liao Chun and Liang Fa's life experience is quite similar, he is a Zhonglu Hao clan, living in the south of the country, but unlike Liang Fa, he is not angry with the darkness of officialdom, only angry and gathered people for the Emperor, and then got acquainted with the Taiping Sect, and some of the ideas of the Taiping Sect are also very recognized, so he simply voted for the Taiping Sect, but his reputation is not high, and if he only talks about talent and learning, he is not valued by Zhang Jiao, and succumbs to Liang Fa.
In the end, Liao Chun shook his head and said: "The Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, go back and inform your lord, Liao will not descend." ”
Ding Li nodded and said: "My lord has thought that the general would say this, but my lord loves talents, knows the talents of generals, and wants to talk to the general in this city!" ”
Without waiting for Liao Chun to speak, Ding Li waved his hand, and someone had already carried a table to the center of the two armies near the city wall and placed it, Ding Li smiled and said: "My lord said, he will wait for the general here for an hour, and after an hour, if the general does not come out, my lord will know the general's intentions, and will send troops to attack the city at that time, but this soldier is in danger, I don't know how many sons and daughters of you and I will die under this Mengxian County, General Wanwang pondered." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Liao Hua to agree, Ding Li had already retreated to the army, Ye Zhao took Qiu Chi to the table, sat down cross-legged, and some soldiers built a canopy for Ye Zhao to shade the sun.
Qiu Chi stood beside Ye Zhao, a little nervous, after all, this place was closer to the city, if Liao Chun didn't follow the rules and directly sent troops out to hunt and kill Ye Zhao, it would be over.
Not only Qiu Chi, but also above the city, seeing that Ye Zhao really appeared under the city with only one entourage like this, Du Yuan was also quite moved, turned his head to look at Liao Chun and said: "Yuan Jian, it is better to take this opportunity to capture Ye Zhao in one fell swoop, Liang Guo has no leader, you and I can not only defend this Meng County, maybe we can also take Liang Guo from the hands of the imperial court!" ”
Liao Chun glanced at Ye Zhao's location, shook his head silently and said, "Look carefully, if I wait for this time to send troops, can I really capture and kill Ye Zhao?" ”
The location chosen by Ye Zhao is a bit subtle, it seems to be closer to the city, indicating that Ye Zhao is frank and not afraid of someone in the city to attack, which can be regarded as a kind of trust, but if Liao Chun really wants to take advantage of the weakness to attack, Ye Zhao can retreat calmly at any time, and even send troops to attack the city while the chaos is in chaos.
If the defender of Meng County is really a stunned young man, he will attack without knowing it, I am afraid that he will be countered by Ye Zhao immediately and break the city in one fell swoop.
Du Yuan was puzzled at first, but after being broken by Liao Chun, he suddenly realized, slapped the city wall and said: "Good thief, cunning." ”
Is it cunning? Maybe.
Liao Chun thought silently, but Ye Zhao never seemed to regard himself as a righteous man and a gentleman, and he acted in a combination of Qi and Zheng, not sticking to means, this kind of person is the most difficult to deal with, they will force you to obey the rules, but usually you will not follow the rules, such as now......
"Open the door, I'll meet him when I go out of the city!" After a moment of silence, Liao Chun said in a deep voice.
"Yuan is not frugal!" Du Yuan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped Liao Chun and said, "Since you know that Ye Zhao is not well-intentioned, why do you want to see him again?" An Zhiqi has no tricks? ”
"Trickery?" Liao Chun smiled bitterly and said: "If I don't go, I'm afraid I will fall for the trick, you look at the soldiers behind you." ”
When Du Yuan heard this, he hurriedly looked back, but saw that the surrounding soldiers were looking at this side, and he was puzzled for a while, but he also felt an indescribable pressure, the eyes of these people obviously did not have any power, but formed an invisible pressure.
"If I don't go, my morale will fall, and this battle has already begun." Liao Chun sighed silently, turned around and walked towards the city wall.
