Chapter 28 Xun Yu

Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer.

There was a young man in the crowd who looked at Liu Fan's appearance, which was younger than himself, and was in a trance. The sad sigh hit his heart again and again like a heavy hammer, this person was Xun Yu who had just arrived in Jiangyi, he had already inquired about where Liu Fan was, and planned to rest in Jiangyi for one night before visiting the military camp.

Just now, Xun Yu also sweated for the little boy, but although Xun Yu was proficient in the six arts of a gentleman, he was just a literati in the end, and he had no ability to run over to rescue.

"Isn't this person the Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion?"

"Yes! I also heard that the garrison of the Marquis of Western Qin Pavilion was ten miles outside the city. ”

"It is rumored that the Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion is less than the year of the weak crown!"

"Tall, handsome, and benevolent, he must be the Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion."

……

The people around were talking about it, and the Marquis of Xiqin Pavilion was going to come to Jiangyi for a long time ago, but it had not been respected. At this time, a middle-aged man stepped forward and asked Liu Fan, "Dare to ask the name of the son?"

"My name is Liu Fan!" Liu Fan replied calmly.

Liu Fan, the middle-aged man was stunned, this name was very unfamiliar to him, he only knew the Xiqin Pavilion Marquis.

"Isn't Liu Fan the name of the Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion?" A voice rang out from the crowd.

Suddenly, the scene was chaotic, and both men, women, and children all squeezed to Liu Fan's side, wanting to get closer to see Liu Fan's dignity, and even Liu Fan's war horse was squeezed aside.

Liu Fan was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, but no one crossed within a half-zhang radius of Liu Fan, and people were still very polite in this era.

"Presumptuous, the Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion must have important business when he comes to Jiangyi, is it rude for you to obstruct it like this?" A scribe in official uniform shouted.

When everyone saw the comer, they hurriedly retreated. The scribe is Zhou Tao, the county magistrate of Jiangyi, and the county commander Shao Yang concurrently serves as the county lieutenant, in charge of the military security of Jiangyi, while Zhou Tao manages the politics and people's livelihood of Jiangyi, except for some major matters, the affairs in the county are decided by Zhou Tao, so the people of Jiangyi are very afraid of him.

"Cheng Zhoutao of Jiangyi County, meet Liu Sima!" Zhou Tao stepped forward and bowed to Liu Fan.

Zhou Tao is only a petty official with a rank of 500 stones, and the copper seal is given by Huang, not to mention anything else, as far as Liu Fanjun's identity is several levels higher than him.

Liu Fan nodded in return and said, "I was about to go to the county government, but I didn't expect to meet the county here."

"Sima?" Zhou Tao asked.

"I want to know when the Huns swept the border in previous years, and how many riders there were?" Liu Fan replied.

"The Xiongnu tribe in Hexi is the Helian tribe, which belongs to the Xiongnu Youxian Wang Department, the Helian tribe has tens of thousands of people, and belongs to the middle tribe in the southern Xiongnu, and the Helian tribe will have 2,000 to 3,000 horsemen to cross the Yellow River in mid-December every year, and after crossing the Yellow River, they will disperse to various places to plunder. Because the Yellow River would not freeze for three feet for too long, they would not stay on the eastern border of the river for more than five days. Zhou Tao said carefully.

Two or three thousand people is almost a nest for a tribe of more than 10,000 people, and this practice must have been instructed by the Right Xian Wang.

Although the Southern Xiongnu belong to the whole people are all soldiers, but due to the fall of a large area of the territory, the space is squeezed in the Hetao, the western section of the Great Wall, there are less than 100,000 people who can control the strings, and the current single Luan Tiqiang Canal is old, the Xiongnu have both internal fighting, and have to resist the great enemy Xianbei, as long as other tribes are not starved, they will not choose to invade in winter.

"Thank you very much! I am busy with military affairs, so I will take my leave. Liu Fan saluted Zhou Tao.

"Sima go slowly!" Zhou Tao bowed again.

Liu Fansima returned, and the people waved their hands to see them off.

"So popular with the people!" Seeing Liu Fan running towards the city gate, Xun Yu immediately rode his horse to follow.

Not long after Liu Fan left the city gate, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him, and because he was not riding fast, the horsemen behind him quickly caught up.

After the person crossed Liu Fan, he crossed the horse a few feet in front of Liu Fan, and Liu Fan had to pull the reins and let the horse stop first.

Seeing the appearance of the visitor, Liu Fan couldn't help but sigh: What a beautiful man!

Liu Fan's appearance is also handsome, but compared with the people who came, he is only ordinary.

The person who came dismounted, walked in front of Liu Fan, and bowed his hand and said: "Yingchuan Xunyu, the word is ruo, I admire the Marquis of Xiqin Ting, please tell me!"

As soon as Liu Fan heard the name reported by the other party, Liu Fan was shocked and hurriedly dismounted.

Xun Yu, who was called 'my son's room' by Cao Cao, not only has Zhang Liang's strategy, but also Xiao He's talent. He was the greatest contributor to Cao Cao's unification of the north, formulated a grand strategy for Cao Cao to unify the north, and frequently made plans in terms of tactics. The resourcefulness of Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others around Cao Cao is not inferior to Xun Yu, but the credit is far less than Xun Yu, because Xun Yu is stronger than internal affairs.

Xun Yu was loyal to the Han family all his life and respected the Son of Heaven, and he assisted Cao Cao because he believed that Cao Cao could help the Han family, report to the country, and reassure the people. Cao Cao's heroic posture, how can he be willing to do this. Xun Yu was transferred from the center because of his opposition to Cao Cao's claim to be king, and finally died of depression. Throughout his life, he was unstained, admired by scribes throughout the ages, and countless people wrote books and biographies for him throughout the ages.

"The foot is a member of the Xun clan of the Yingyin clan." Liu Fan came to Xun Yu's side and returned the salute.

"Exactly!" Xun Yu replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Long admiration! Yingchuan Xun is a descendant of the pre-Qin sage Xunzi, more virtuous, presumably must be a great talent, not far from the front is my military camp, please go to the camp with me. Liu Fan invited Xun Yu.

Xunzi's eleventh grandson, Xun Sui, had two sons, and the eldest son had two sons, both of whom were eight jun during the Hengdi period, and were famous; Sui second son Xun Shu, Yingchuan Xun clan was famous in the late Han Dynasty mainly because of Xun Shu.

Xun Shu is knowledgeable, noble character, and is called "Shenjun". There are eight characters: Xun Jian, Xun Qi, Xun Jing, Xun Tao, Xun Xu, Xun Su, Xun Yang, and have a talent name, known as "Xun's Eight Dragons".

Xun Yu is the son of Xun Sui. Xun Shuang, the word Ciming. Among the eight dragons, Ciming is unparalleled.

"I just finished my studies in Taixue, and I don't dare to be a great talent. The Marquis of the Western Qin Pavilion was invited, and he dared to disobey his fate. Xun Yu humbled himself, and then accepted.
