Chapter 321: Cheng Gongying
After walking around the military camp in Ji County, the camp rode tens of thousands, and the truce for so long was that they all recovered, the military armor was neat, and the fatigue of the previous war dissipated. The morale of the soldiers was relatively high, and in addition to the great victory, Liu Yuan's reward had arrived, and both the top and bottom had gained, but the treasury, which was already insufficient, was missing a lot of materials.
swept around the generals such as Xu Bu Chiyi, Wu Huali, Liu Qiu, Xu Huang, Duan Ling, etc.: "Defeat the thief army, there is nothing to do in the west, all thanks to the work of the generals!" Come here alone, not only for the inspection, but also for the army! Thank you for your hard work! ”
"King Xie!"
"Gongming, Lone really didn't mistake you!" Liu Yuan looked at Xu Huang, who was still stranded in Ji County, and his eyes were full of praise: "Lonely you are the Marquis of Gaoping, the general of the Qiang Zhonglang, and temporarily stationed in stability!" ”
As soon as this statement fell, after Zheng Heng, Wang Rou, Yan Rou, and Lu Bu, the fifth Han Chen Marquis of Xia was born, and the strength of the Han people also increased in the growing lord system of Xia State.
Xu Huang was a little surprised in his eyes, he thought that he hadn't done anything great, and he had made Ma Han get away with it before, and Liu Yuan treated him so well. After surrendering to Xia Guo for so long, he also knew that Xia Guo's title was a real benefit, and Liu Yuan never appreciated it lightly for the embodiment of interests and status.
For such a long time, the huge Xia Kingdom has been less than twenty marquises. The soldiers and soldiers are fighting, not to fight for a meritorious lord, food, land, cattle and horses, servants, slaves, those who have a knight can embrace it.
Duan Ling at the bottom looked at Xu Huang quietly, his eyes were hot, I don't know when, he will also be knighted as a marquis. But at this time, I can only imagine it, at a young age, I worship the general, and I still have to boil it again.
"Minister, thank you!" Looking at Liu Yuan deeply, Xu Huang bowed heavily.
"Hanyang is still stable here, Ma Teng and Han Sui fled back to Wuwei and Jincheng, what's wrong?" Ask Subu Chiti Dao.
"Back to the king!" Subu Chiyi arched his hand and responded: "The counties of Hanyang are all in their hands, and with my Xia pawn deterrent, the Qiang Han dare not make a mistake." The Qiang and Di people in Longxi and Wudu did not dare to look north. However, the minister sent someone to find out that not long ago, there was an internal conflict between the two parties during Ma Teng's temporary stay in Jincheng, and Ma Teng was attacked and killed by Han Sui. However, this matter is a rumor and needs to be confirmed! ”
"Oh?" Liu Yuan looked interested, and laughed: "Ma Teng and Han Sui, these two are interesting, 'love and kill each other'!" ”
Everyone below looked at each other and was stunned, not knowing what Liu Yuan meant by this.
As soon as his mind turned, he waved his hand and ordered: "Ma and Han have a grudge, Jincheng is the place where Han Sui is rooted, and in Jincheng County, it is not impossible for Han Sui to attack and kill him." Send someone to find out what is going on in the west. Again, the treasury is empty, and there is no ability to move westward for the time being, just hold Hanyang! ”
"No!"
After everyone dispersed and Liu Heng was left alone, Liu Yuan's face changed significantly, from yang to yin. looked at Liu Heng with cold eyes, and saw that he was uneasy.
Unable to bear the pressure, Liu Heng buried his head and knelt on the ground: "Please ask my father to punish the crime!" ”
"Do you know how serious the consequences are just because you attacked rashly?" Liu Yuan angrily slapped the big case: "The wind is eroding, the displaced people are lost, and Chang'an is shaking." Lonely, but I was almost kicked out of the gate! ”
"Chen Cang won a narrow victory, do you know how many soldiers and soldiers our army has killed and wounded, and how much national strength has been consumed, these are all meaningless losses, which could have been avoided! What do you think, what should be done with you? Well? ”
Liu Yuan's words made Liu Heng feel cold all over his body, his body trembled, and his head was buried lower. He was in a good mood when he saw Liu Yuan coming, and his contribution to the victory in Chencang was not small, and Liu Yuan should have revealed the past. Unexpectedly, he was still angry, and he was really worried in his heart.
After the venting was over, the hall was quiet, and Liu Hengdou's big beads of sweat continued to drip on the ground. After a long while, the dark clouds on Liu Yuan's face finally dissipated a lot, and his voice was still low: "Gu reminded you a long time ago that if you join the army, you should listen to military orders." If you weren't the prince of Xia, no one would be able to keep your head! ”
Feeling the coldness in Liu Yuan's tone, Liu Heng couldn't help but shrink his neck and bow down: "The defeat of the arrow is unforgettable, and the sons and daughters will never forget it in this life!" ”
"I hope so!"
"I heard that you captured Cheng Gongying?" Liu Yuan asked suddenly.
Liu Heng was a little dazed when he heard this, and subconsciously looked up at Liu Yuan, seeing that he had already recovered his light and breezy appearance, and there was no sign of anger before.
After a pause of two breaths, he immediately said, "Yes!" ”
"Still kneeling and doing something, bring him to the hall, I just want to meet this Liangzhou master!"
"No!" Liu Heng got up slightly, regardless of the soreness on his knees, and walked out of the hall.
After sitting and waiting for a while, there was a movement outside, and Liu Heng came with Cheng Gongying. Liu Heng is really a lixian, Cheng Gongying did not have a rope lock, he was dressed in gray, and he entered the palace with an expressionless face.
His face was indifferent, he raised his eyes and looked directly at Liu Yuan, without fear of color, and treated it indifferently.
"You're Cheng Gongying?" Liu Yuan didn't care about his rudeness, and Liu Heng on the side of Bering was anxious.
"Exactly!"
"In the battle of Jianxiaoyuan, Mr. became famous, and he had heard of it in Chang'an. Entering my Xia Kingdom today, are you willing to surrender to sincerity and serve Lonely? Mr. is a celebrity in Liangzhou, when he knows the truth of choosing a tree to live in, he must not disappoint Lonely, right? Without further ado, Liu Yuan directly stated his intentions.
Cheng Gongying laughed for a while: "King Xia doesn't need to say much, it's really difficult to fall into summer under the Xia!" ”
did not mention anything "I am a loyal and good Han man, and I will not surrender to Hulu", he went to Han Sui, and Han Sui was not a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. It's just as simple as that, don't drop.
"Really, not to fall?"
"It's really not going to fall!"
Liu Heng next to him was a little anxious, before he came, he had told Cheng Gongying not to be too rigid and annoy his father. It can be seen that Cheng Gongying is like this, but he didn't listen to his own words at all.
Sure enough, I saw Liu Yuan leaning back leisurely, and commanded lightly: "Pull it out and kill it!" ”
Since he forced Xun You and Zhang Liao to death before, Liu Yuan's heart has hardened, even if he is virtuous, if he can't use it for himself, then he doesn't need to keep it. Cheng Gongying is really talented, but if he doesn't know the current affairs and orders him to be executed, Liu Yuan will not hesitate at all.
And after taking Guanzhong, Liu Yuan can also be regarded as harvesting a wave of Guanyou talents, and his subordinates are not as short as before, and no one is available.
With an understatement of the order, the atmosphere in the hall changed a little, Cheng Gongying's eyes were slightly condensed, and then he was full of relief, and he did not make meaningless resistance, let the guards hold it down, and he was going to be caught and disposed of.
"Wait!" Liu Heng hurriedly rushed out at this time: "Father, Mr. Cheng Gong is extraordinary, has outstanding strategy, and it is a pity to kill him easily." This move will definitely lose the hearts of the scholars in Liangzhou, and I hope that my father will think twice. If he is temporarily detained, the retainers are willing to slowly persuade him and influence his heart. ”
"If you can tell this truth, it seems that you have grown a lot!" Liu Yuan was slightly surprised, turned his head to look at Cheng Gongying, who had been escorted out of the door, and a smile appeared on his face: "Then let's take it into custody for the time being, Lone will give you some time to see how you can influence his heart!" ”
Kill or not, it's just a matter of doing as you like, Liu Yuan doesn't have any fluctuations in his heart.
"Thank you, father!" Liu Heng raised his eyebrows.
hurriedly withdrew, and ordered someone to let go of Cheng Gongying. Cheng Gongying naturally heard the situation inside the door, and he was also relieved at this time. Although he is not afraid of death, if he can live one more moment, he will live one more time.
