Chapter 43: Boldness

Although it seems a little strange to come to Qingzhou with the mission of Yanbei to invite Gongsun Zhan, but to be appointed by Gongsun Chan as the assassin of the history, Liu Bei is still very satisfied. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yanbei got what he wanted, and Gongsun Zhan did accept the invitation under Liu Bei's persuasion, and the generals went to the revolving gate; Gongsun Zhan also got what he wanted, leaving Liu Bei and his subordinates with a force of 3,000 men and horses in Qingzhou to ensure that they were along the rear.

As for Liu Bei, he also got what he wanted.

History of Qingzhou Thorn, History of Qingzhou Thorn...... What is the difference between the history of the Kanto region and the state pastor? The biggest difference is that the Taishou under his command are autonomous, and the assassin is not like the state pastor who has the power to command the local area in his official position, in fact, he can only serve his troops in the plain county, and take advantage of the fact that the plain has no state minister to slowly promote his influence in the state and county.

The first thing Liu Bei did at the beginning of his tenure in the autumn was to visit Beihai Xiang Kong Rong.

In fact, it was not a visit, there was a thief named Guan Hai in the Qingzhou army who was scattered by Gongsun Zhan, and gathered troops to attack Beihai State, Liu Bei wanted to take the opportunity to establish his authority, so he led the army to aid Kong Rong, relying on the three thousand soldiers and horses left by Gongsun Chan to break Guan Hai's thief soldiers, and drove them to the coast of Donglai, so that he was able to meet Kong Rong.

Kong Rong was rescued, and naturally he was grateful to Liu Bei, and he didn't even care about Liu Bei's assassination who was privately appointed by Gongsun Zhan, but fell in love with him.

Kong Rong, if you want to say that the degree of bad luck, is no less than Liu Bei. He originally entered the imperial court during the period of the great general He Jin, as a subordinate official of Zhongcheng in the imperial history, which was the official position that Han Fu had previously held, but his immediate boss was named Zhao She. Kong Rong and Zhao She were at odds, so he resigned and returned to his hometown. Not long after returning home, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and recruited him as a subordinate of Sikong Peng and a lieutenant in the Northern Army, and not long after that, he became a general of the Tiger Ben Zhonglang...... It was Yuan Shu who was promoted to the successor after being promoted to the general.

When Dong Zhuo wanted to abolish the emperor, Kong Rong always argued with Dong Zhuo, and often had Kuang Zheng's words. Kong Rong is a talented and arrogant person, and when he was ten years old, he scolded Chen Wei, a doctor in the middle of the court, and told the story that he was not good when he was young, not to mention that he already had a reputation that spread all over the world. After coming and going, he offended Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo hinted that the Three Dukes' Mansion would transfer him to Beihai Kingdom, where the Yellow Turban was the most powerful, as the state minister.

Guan Hai, who besieged Beihai, is a powerful character, even if Liu Bei and the Yellow Turban have fought many times, this rough-looking Qingzhou man can also rank in the top few tricky ones, although the majestic martial arts are still a little behind the second general of Guan Zhang, but it is not something that Liu Bei can deal with alone, but he is not a single person to solve the siege of Beihai. The soldiers and horses left behind by Gongsun Zhan played a vital role in the Yellow Turbans of Shangqingzhou.

With Kong Rong's support, Liu Bei's recruitment in Qingzhou this winter was much easier.

If the situation today is not as simple as falling apart, it is very beneficial to have close relations with the princes and officials in various places...... Liu Bei is the kind of person who has a close relationship with the princes in various places. He is Gongsun Zhan's cronies and fellow disciples; He is Kong Rong's benefactor in relieving the siege; He is a former official under the account of Yanbei; He is Han Fu's ally.

The various forces in Qingzhou are not far from him.

Generally speaking, Liu Bei and Yan Bei have some similarities in their hearts, for example, they also look down on many mediocre but prestigious people in this world from the bottom of their hearts. It's just that Liu Bei is not so arrogant, or he hides the arrogance in his heart very deeply, just like Yanbei, who has not been famous in the world for a long time...... They also set their hearts above the nine heavens, but their heads looked down at the nine heavens.

Liu Bei didn't mind being driven by those he looked down upon, this was what made him different from Yanbei. Liu Bei prefers to cooperate with others so that everyone can get everything they want.

As for who gets more and who gets less in this 'everything', Liu Bei doesn't care.

As long as he gets his fair share.

It was his chance to become the Qingzhou Assassin, and although the power of this Assassin was still small, he was able to get more through his transgressions. And his opportunity was the new Dong Coalition Army that Yanbei planned to form this time.

Liu Bei was not satisfied that he could not get any opportunity to participate in the battle and make meritorious contributions after the battle, and he would not forget the two brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who were still under the tent of Yanbei because of the little Qingzhou Assassin History. He was in Qingzhou, and he didn't intend to stabilize the situation as Gongsun Chan thought...... He wants to recruit troops, he wants to regroup, and he wants this army to go to the revolving gate in the coming year...... Let the revolving door close and erect a large flag symbolizing him.

As a prince, plunge into the most dangerous battle in the world to earn the right to advance!

……

Liaodong Xiangping, Yan's mansion, the brazier in the pavilion of the mansion is booming, and the smoky warmth makes people feel comfortable, but under the pavilion, there are many samurai in armor and swords, but it can't make Yan Dong feel the slightest laziness.

"Brother, do you want me to take Le Lang Taishou Zhang Qi instead?"

According to reason, even if Yan Bei is not in Xiangping's Yan Clan's mansion, he will not be able to lead the troops to enter, but this time they came with the warrant of Fu Taishou, and those mansion guards naturally couldn't say anything.

In order to keep the conversation absolutely confidential, there was no way to lead the twenty relatives into the Yan Mansion with the samurai.

Yan Dong's surprise was expected, he nodded and said: "The general's warrant, Lelang Taishou Zhang Qi deliberately rebelled, wanting to lure Liu Gong to stand on his own, and ordered him to be captured and detained on his way back to Lelang County...... As soon as possible, the rider sent back the news that Zhang Qi had returned from Jixian the day before yesterday, and the subordinate officials he persuaded Liu Gong were ordered by Liu Gong to be executed in the state capital. His guard of honor will pass through Liaoxi County within half a month, and there is not much time left for us. ”

"I came here today, firstly, to inform the general's purpose, and secondly, I also wanted to ask San Lang." With a solemn face, the last time he did the biggest thing was to snatch out the body of his teacher Le Gao after the palace coup, he asked Yan Dong: "San Lang's arrangement in Lelang County, if there is a forged seal, can the successor Taishou be sure?" ”

Yan Dong only understood his brother's plan from his mouth today, and asked him to take over as Lelang Taishou in a blink of an eye, to be honest, his brother's plan was a bit hasty for him. In the early years, he did make a lot of arrangements in Lelang County, and even to this day, there are still more than 500 people in various parts of Lelang County who have been installed by him in various parts of the county, including county governors, county servants, merchant pawns, peasant singers, and even a year in Lelang County, he also made some friends with foreign clans...... Just for these arrangements, in addition to stepping on some industrial farms in Lelang County every year, they have to pay more than 100 gold.

However, those arrangements were not made to seize power in the county, but only to clear up intelligence.

"It's difficult, Zijing, I don't have soldiers in my hands, and now my brother is not in the county, and there are soldiers and horses in Goguryeo in the east...... I don't think this is the best time to pretend to be too guarded. Yan Dong was less decisive and more cautious than his brother, he got up and paced, and only after a moment did he say to Zhao Zhao: "Do you mean that you want you to assist me in accomplishing this important matter entrusted by my brother?" ”

"Yes, in addition to Zaixia, there are also 2,000 garrisons in Fanhan County and a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses in Wenxian County." Zhao Zhao said to Yan Dong: "With these 3,000 soldiers and horses, it should be enough to stabilize the situation in Lelang County, right?" ”

Yan Dong glanced at the Zhao, he thought about Lelang County too simply, but Yan Dong is different, he has been in Lelang County for nearly two years, although he does not say that he knows the county well, but he still knows the general situation well, he said to the Zhao: "It is not difficult to occupy the county to govern the king of the dangerous city, I have many guests in the city, even if the defenders do not let the soldiers and horses enter the city, they will not lock the city gate, but if you want to fully include the county in your hands, it is particularly difficult...... Lelang is a place where you can't fight. ”

Lelang has two county commanders in the east and north, each holding 2,000 soldiers and horses. Garrisoning Goguryeo and Sanhan respectively, the northern governor has nothing to do with it, and it is not close to Zhang Qi if he is a Han Chinese, and when the edict arrives, it is estimated that there will be no rebellion. But it's hard to say about the eastern governor, who was a military general who rebelled from Goguryeo, loyal to Zhang Qi, and in case of a rebellion, whether it was fighting alone or colluding with Goguryeo, it would probably not be a good thing.

Yan Dong told Zhao Zhao about these situations, and Zhao Zhao was silent. He knew very well that although it was Yanbei's intention to raise Yandong as Lelang's Taishou, in his opinion, there was a deeper consideration for doing this at this moment.

Not only to expand the territory controlled by Yanbei, but also to be able to contain Goguryeo with Lelang County and Liaodong County in the west and south, so that it would not dare to march to Liaodong or Lelang easily.

In this case, the internal friction between the recruited soldiers and horses and the lieutenant of Lelang County is obviously not in their interests.

"Is there a way for Saburo to meet with Captain Nadu outside the camp?" Zhao Zhao was silent for a long time before he made up his mind, and said to Yan Dong: "Without further ado, you go to Fanhan County first to make some arrangements, and I will lead the water guards to Liaoxi and take Zhang Qi into custody...... After that, since most of the eastern lieutenants will rebel, let's kill him, as long as we kill him, there shouldn't be too many obstacles to capturing Lelang County, right? ”

"Kill him?" Yan Dong looked at the big move, cleaned up his words, and said: "I heard that the Goguryeo rebel general is very brave, you ......"

made a decision, but the move was much easier in terms of mentality, and nodded to Yan Dong with a smile: "There is always a limit to people's bravery, how can you know how powerful he is if you don't see it with your own eyes?" The soldiers and horses will go to Wang Wei City from Fanhan, I will enter the city first, you find someone to invite the eastern lieutenant into the city to set up a banquet and drink, as for the excuse to think of one at will, I will try to kill him during the banquet, and at the same time as an internal should open the city gate of Wang Wei City for you, and then use a forged edict to recruit his soldiers and horses! ”
