Chapter 382 [Tian Chou]

The green dragon halberd fell to the ground, like a piece of scrap iron.

Long Xiaotian, who seems to be invincible, is not Wei Yan's enemy, no wonder his name is big, but he has not left his name in history.

Wei Yan remembered that Zhang Yan had said that he had eliminated some poles, there was a pole known as Huanglong, there was a pole leader who rode a white horse and his surname was Zhang Baiqi, there was a pole leader who spoke loudly and his surname was Zhang Leigong, and there was a pole leader with big eyes and his surname was Li Damu.

Long Xiaotian struggled to get up, but a guard sergeant had already rushed forward and tied Long Xiaotian strongly.

Wei Yan lifted the Red Blood Knife and pressed the head of the cold light Sensen's halberd against Long Xiaotian's throat: "Long Xiaotian, who the hell told you that I would pass through this valley at this time?!" ”

Long Xiaotian smiled contemptuously: "Although I, Long Xiaotian, am a thief, I am also righteous and will never betray my friends!" ”

Wei Yan pushed the sharp halberd head forward and pressed it tightly against Long Xiaotian's throat: "Don't cut off your life for the sake of stupid righteousness!" ”

Long Xiaotian shouted: "If you want to kill, you will kill, why bother talking nonsense, twenty years later, Lao Tzu is still a hero!" ”

Wei Yan was furious, and wanted to stab Long Xiaotian to death with a halberd, but Xu Shu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Lord, leave him a dog's life!" Just now I asked some bandit leaders again, and they didn't know the origin of the black-clothed man who went up the mountain the day before yesterday, saying that only their Qu Shuai Long Xiaotian knew! ”

Wei Yan raised the Red Blood Knife and shook his head again and again: "But this guy regards death as his home, and he doesn't give in, so he can't help it!" ”

Xu Shu smiled and said: "Everyone has weaknesses, although this Long Xiaotian is not afraid of death, but he is a person with a good temperament!" The leaders of those bandits said that Long Xiaotian had raised more than a dozen ladies in the cottage, which could be described as a lack of women, and it was easy for him to confide in the truth. ”

Wei Yan laughed and said, "Then I'll hand him over to you, just one day, you must let him tell the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

Wei Yan sent people to raid Long Xiaotian's lair, and took advantage of the situation to sweep away all the bandits at the junction of the three counties.

Wei Yan also sent Dian Wei to lead the remaining men and horses to reorganize the prisoners, clean up the battlefield, and clean up the spoils of war.

Xu Shu took Long Xiaotian into a camp, tied him up, and gave him the elixir, which is rich in aphrodisiac ingredients, which can quickly enhance a man's lust.

Long Xiaotian was furious when he saw this, and kept insulting, so Xu Shu quickly took a rag and plugged his mouth.

Xu Shu saw that Long Xiaotian's reaction was getting worse and stronger, so he ordered someone to take off his clothes, pick up a sword with a cold light, put it on his vital point, and smiled: "Long Xiaotian, is your friend important?" Or do you bird matter? If you don't tell your friend, you can only give it to us who have made meritorious contributions to the Guards and soldiers, and you will be a eunuch for the rest of your life, and you will never be able to enjoy the wonderful carcass of a beautiful woman again! ”

Long Xiaotian is a lustful outlaw, the way they look forward to death is "die under the peony flower, and be a ghost is also romantic", but Xu Shu threatened to let him be a eunuch, which is far more uncomfortable than killing him, Long Xiaotian watched the sharp sword get closer and closer to his vital point, and the sadness on his face became heavier and heavier, and finally he couldn't bear it, and screamed: "Woo woo woo." ”

Xu Shu felt that Long Xiaotian's reaction was a little strange, and when he looked up, Dian Wei's torn socks were still stuffed in Long Xiaotian's mouth, and he quickly pulled out the stinky socks.

Long Xiaotian screamed, "I said! I say! It's ......"

He said a person's name, which was expected by Wei Yan and Xu Shu, Liu Bao!

It was Liu Bao who sent someone to track Wei Yan's whereabouts, so he told Long Xiaotian the news.

Wei Yan sent someone to send an order to Xu Huang, castrated Liu Bao, strictly managed, and killed him immediately if the use value was gone!

When Xu Shu got confirmed, he looked at Long Xiaotian with a smile: "Thank you!" The sword in his hand swung down!

Long Xiaotian screamed miserably, fainted in an instant, and when he woke up, he saw that he was empty underneath, so he scolded sharply: "Xu Shu thief, he has no faith in his words, lacks virtue, and is a bad seed!" ”

Xu Shu grinned and put the sword on Long Xiaotian's neck: "It seems that I didn't promise you anything in advance, if you scold again, I will cut off your head!" ”

"Xu Shu thief, you can't be a man, what's the point of me living, kill me with a sword!" Long Xiaotian howled miserably, howling as he struggled desperately, trying to put his neck against the sword.

Xu Shu hurriedly took back the sword, and said with a smile: "Kill you with a sword, it's cheaper for you, my lord has decided to completely sweep the stubborn bandits between the counties in Sizhou, Bingzhou, and you will be escorted to the counties and counties in Bingzhou and Sizhou to make a tour of the public, so that those bandits can see the fate of their refusal to return and intend to attack the Wei army!" Hey, it's called waste utilization! ”

Long Xiaotian couldn't bear such humiliation, so he wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide, but Xu Shu found out in advance and removed his jaw, making him unable to bite his tongue.

Xu Shu sneered: "Long Xiaotian, my lord said that for you thieves, horse thieves, pirates, lewd thieves and other thieves who have no thief and no spirit of morality, the best punishment is not to kill them with a knife, but to let you survive and not die, and let you endure a life that is even more miserable than the innocent people you have ever mutilated!" ”

Wei Yan's heart was like an arrow, so he asked the county lieutenants of the two places to divide the prisoners of these bandits equally, and selected the outstanding ones to be added to the county soldiers, and most of the rest of the thieves were placed in the labor reform brigade in the Tuntian Corps, and a few vicious bandits were placed in the slave camp.

The people in the Tuntian Corps are divided into four categories, the first category is the field guards, the second category is the tunmin, mainly composed of displaced people and errant Wei army soldiers, the third category is the labor reform team members, mainly composed of prisoners of war or people who have violated the law, usually can be transformed into ordinary tun people, and the fourth category is slaves, which are composed of the immediate family members of the great families who fought against Wei Yan and the prisoners of war who committed the most heinous crimes, and there is almost no possibility of reform.

……

Wei Yan returned to Yiyang New Town and had a love affair with his wives and concubines, which is skipped here for various outrageous reasons.

This trip to merge the state not only took Cai Yan back, but also got the good general Zhao Yun!

In addition, there is another character who is not particularly famous, Tian Chou!

Tian Chou is a native of Youbeiping, who liked to read when he was young and was good at fencing. In the first year of Chuping (190), the Kwantung Volunteers rose, and Dong Zhuo moved Emperor Xian of Han to Chang'an. Youzhou Mu Liu Yu sighed and said: "The thieves rebelled, the court was exiled, and the four seas were overturned, and no one had a firm belief. As the elder of the royal family, I naturally can't be the same as everyone else. Now I would like to invite an envoy to the court to perform my courtesy as a loyal servant, how can I get a person who does not live up to my mission? Everyone talked about it and said: "Although Tian Chou is young, many people call him a strange person." Tian Chou was only twenty-two years old at this time.

In the second year of the first peace, Liu Yu immediately politely and thoughtfully invited Tian Chou to meet, and was very satisfied with him, so he asked him to take charge of the work and buy carriages and horses for him.

When he was about to set off, Tian Chou said: "Now that the road is blocked and cut off, and thieves are rampant, if I claim to be an official and send an envoy, I will be named by everyone, which will be inconvenient." I would like to go there as a personal person and hope to be able to arrive smoothly. Liu Yu listened to him.

Tian Chou then returned home, and selected more than 20 brave young men from his family and who came to be willing to be his followers, and rode together, and Liu Yu personally came out to worship the road god and see Tian Chou off. After getting on the road, Tian Chou went to Juyong Pass, went out of the border stopper, followed the Yin Mountain, went directly to Shuofang County, walked along the path, and finally arrived in Chang'an and completed the mission.

The imperial court issued an edict appointing Tian Chou as the commander of the cavalry, but Tian Chou thought that the Son of Heaven had just returned from exile and had not yet settled down, and he could not bear such an honor, so he insisted on resigning. The court respected his heart. The three princes were recruited at the same time, but Tian Chou did not accept it.

In the fourth year of Chuping (193), Liu Yu and Gongsun Chan attacked each other, Tian Chou got the report, and quickly returned, but before he arrived, Liu Yu had been killed by Gongsun Zhan. After Tian Chou came back, he went to Liu Yu's grave to pay respects and pay respects, issued a chapter watch, and left crying.

Gongsun Chan was furious when he found out, offered a wanted reward, captured Tian Chou, and said to him: "Why did you go to Liu Yu's tomb alone to cry, but you didn't come to send me a report form?" Tian Chou replied: "The royal family of the Han Dynasty was declining, and everyone had different intentions, but only Liu Gong did not lose the integrity of faithfulness. There is nothing good to say about the general as stated in the report form, and I am afraid that it is not something you would like to know, so I did not send it. Besides, the general is doing great things to satisfy his desires, and he has killed the innocent lord and enmity with the loyal courtiers, if he really does this, then the scholars and generals in the Yan and Zhao regions will only throw themselves into the East China Sea and die, how can anyone bear to follow the general? Because of Tian Chou's straightforward answer, Gongsun Chan loosened his ties and didn't dare to harm him.

Gongsun Chan detained Tian Chou in the barracks and forbade his friends to associate with him.

Someone persuaded Gongsun Zhan and said: "Tian Chou is a righteous man, you can't treat him politely, but lock him up, I'm afraid you will lose everyone's heart." Gongsun Chan then released and sent Tian Chou away.

Tian Chou was able to return to the north, led a total of hundreds of people from all the clans and from other places to attach, swept the ground and swore an oath: "If you don't take revenge, I will no longer stand in the world!" He then entered Xu Wushan Mountain, created a far-reaching, steep and very flat open space to live, and personally cultivated food to support his parents. The people came and joined him, and within a few years it had reached more than 5,000 households.

Tian Chou said to his fathers and elders: "You don't think that my Tian Chou is not virtuous, I came from afar to take refuge, and the town was formed by a large number of people, but it has not yet been unified, I am afraid it is not a long-term stable practice, and I hope to elect a person who is able or old to be the leader." Everyone said "yes" and elected Tian Chou together. Tian Chou said: "Now we are here, not just to seek immediate stability, but to plot big things and take revenge. I am privately concerned that our great ambition has not yet been realized, and that those who are frivolous and frivolous themselves harass and bully each other, and are happy for a while, but have no foresight. Tian Chou I have an immature plan that I want to implement with you, is that okay? They all said, "Yes." Tian Chou formulated laws on killing, theft, and litigation for everyone, stipulating that those who commit serious crimes shall be punished with death, and the second offender must also be punished, with a total of more than 20 articles. He also formulated the etiquette of weddings and funerals, and established a plan for the establishment of schools to teach knowledge, which was promulgated to the people. Everyone is familiar with it, to the point where the road is not forgotten. The people of the northern border areas gathered one after another to obey his prestige, and Karasuma and Xianbei also sent their own envoys to deliver tribute, and Tian Chou accepted and comforted them, so that they would no longer be harassed.

Yuan Shao sent envoys several times to invite him, and immediately granted the general seal in order to appease the people under Tian Chou's rule, but Tian Chou refused and did not accept it. After Yuan Shao's death, his son Yuan Shang came to recruit again, but Tian Chou never went.

Tian Chou often hated Wu Huan for killing local scholars and doctors, and had the intention of crusading against them, but his strength was not enough.

In the twelfth year of Jian'an (207), Cao Cao went north to conquer Wuhuan, and before it arrived, he first sent an envoy to recruit Tian Chou, and then ordered Tian Chou to inform him of his will.

Tian Chou ordered the doorman to quickly pack up and pack his luggage.

The doorman said to him: "In the past, Yuan Gong admired you, and gifts and orders came many times, but you did not give in at all; Now that the envoy of Gong Cao is coming for the first time, you are like I'm afraid it's too late, why is that? ”

Tian Chou replied with a smile: "This is not what you understand. So he followed the envoy to Cao Cao's army, and appointed Cao Peng, who was the secretary of the house, and prepared to introduce the counselor.

The next day, Cao Cao issued an edict saying: "Tian Zitai is not the person I should appoint as an official. "Recommended as Maocai, appointed as the county magistrate.

Tian Chou did not go to take office, and followed the army to Wuzhong County.

At that time, it was the summer precipitation, the low-lying area of the seashore, the mud was impassable, the thieves guarded the dangerous road section, and Cao's army could not advance.

Cao Cao was very worried and asked Tian Chou about this.

Tian Chou said: "This road is often waterlogged in the summer, and it is not passable for cars and horses in the shallow places, and there are no boats in the depths, so this kind of disaster has been caused for a long time. The original Beiping County was governed in Pinggang County, from Lulongsai to Liucheng; Since the founding of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, it has been dilapidated and cut off for nearly two hundred years, but there are still hidden paths to be found. Now the army and horses of the thief generals are on the road to no end, unable to advance, they are retreating, lax and unprepared. If we lead our army back quietly, cross the danger of Baitan from Lulongkou, and walk out of the open area, the road is close and easy to walk, and take advantage of its unpreparedness to attack, and the head of Badun can be captured without fighting. ”

Cao Cao said, "Okay. So he led the army back, and erected a large log beside the waterside road, and wrote: "It is now a hot summer, and the road is impassable, so let's wait until autumn and winter to march again." ”

The cavalry detectives of the thief army saw it and really thought that Cao Jun was gone.

Cao Cao ordered Tian Chou to lead his subordinates as guides, walked up Xu Wushan, passed Lulong, passed Pinggang, and boarded the White Wolf City, more than 200 miles away from Liucheng, the thief army became alert, Shan Yu personally went into battle, Cao Cao fought with him, and finally won a complete victory, chasing the defeated soldiers to Liucheng. Cao Jun returned, entered the Guannei, rewarded meritorious deeds, sealed Tianchou as the Pavilion Marquis, and sealed 500 households.

Tian Chou himself thought that he had led everyone to flee for the sake of the monarch's death, and his ambition of revenge had not yet been realized, but he relied on it to obtain profits, which was not his original intention, and insisted on pushing back. Cao Cao knew that he was sincere, and agreed without forcing him.

……

Xu Wushan was in Youzhou, the distance was too far, Wei Yan did not invite him personally, but wrote a letter to Tian Chou, written in response to Tian Chou's character, the words touched his heart, Tian Chou refused to give up others, or did not serve Wei Yan, Wei Yan ordered the agent to tie Tian Chou ......
