Chapter 49: Centrifugation of Uncle and Nephew (1)
With the departure of Cao Cao, Bao Xin, Sun Jian and others, the powerful coalition army also collapsed.
When Han Lie and Han Fu withdrew from Luoyang and returned to the sour jujube camp, the three brothers Liu Bei, who were temporarily appointed by Han Lie to garrison Xingyang, led 3,000 soldiers and horses to defect.
Han Fu remembered his merit in seizing the water pass, and saw that Liu Bei's 3,000 men and horses were not weak, so he accepted Liu Bei's request to be a vassal.
Along the way, Han Fu was worried about the retaliation of Yuan Shao's brothers because of the proximity between Han Lie and Sun Jian, and was quite dissatisfied with Han Lie in his heart, so he asked him to lead his men and horses to rush back to Suojube first, and assist the soldiers and horses who stayed in the camp to pack up and prepare to withdraw to Yecheng.
Han Lie was worried about Xu Huang's injury, and he had long been reluctant to move slowly with the army, and after receiving Han Fu's military order, he immediately ordered his troops and horses to hurry away.
But at this moment, Han Lie didn't know why Liu Bei supported 3,000 soldiers and horses during the month he was stationed in Xingyang, and the reason for this was because Liu Bei had the support of Zheng Tai, the head of the Zheng family of the Xingyang clan.
Zheng Tai is famous, has been recruited by the imperial court three times to serve as an official, his family is also Xingyang Wang, it is said that his family has a thousand good fields, rich on the one side, but the surprise is that the Zheng family is often short of food, the reason is that Zheng Tai feels that the world is in turmoil, so he scattered all his wealth to help the heroes of Kanto, but all the famous people, come to ask for help, Zheng Tai will never be stingy.
This time Liu Bei was stationed in Xingyang, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led the army to inspect the public security, Zheng Tai accidentally found that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were all invincible generals, and was surprised, so he came to visit Liu Bei, and had a long talk with Liu Bei, and learned that Liu Bei was actually a disciple of Lu Zhi, not to mention, Zheng Tai, who was still a royal clansman, suddenly had a good impression of Liu Bei.
Later, he was impressed by Liu Bei's benevolence and Kuang Huhan's intentions, and respected it even more, plus he had a premonition that once the world was in turmoil, Xingyang would inevitably become the place of the four wars.
It was also the hundreds of members of the Zheng family and the help of all the family wealth that made Liu Bei's more than 1,000 people expand into 3,000 strong people.
Zheng Tai and Han Fu are also old acquaintances, this is not under Zheng Tai's recommendation, on the way from Luoyang to sour jujube, Han Fu and Liu Bei actually talked very happily, Liu Bei's performance has always been a benevolent and humble gentleman image, which undoubtedly makes Han Fu, who has a weak personality, have a good impression of Liu Bei.
In addition, with Zheng Tai flattering him, Han Fu's favor for Liu Bei rose even more sharply, and even before arriving at the sour date, Han Fu privately praised Liu Bei as the Taishou of Boling County under the rule of Jizhou, and the reason why Han Fu made such a decision was of course not something that Zheng Tai and Liu Bei could praise.
You must know that at this time, Han Fu's account is not to drive Min Chun, and Geng Wu is around him, these people are not fools, the reason why they did not object to Liu Bei's appearance in Jizhou is that Liu Bei has a special identity.
First of all, he is a disciple of Lu Zhi, Zhuojun Lu is not only a Youzhou family, but a Hebei family, Lu Zhi and Qinghe Cui are called Hebei families, the two families opened a private school in the early years, and cultivated a large number of Hebei disciples, among which Liu Bei was also fortunate to study in Lu Zhi's private school during that period.
But four years ago, after Lu Zhi was demoted, he lived in seclusion in his hometown, and reached an agreement with the Cui family, and secretly became the contact point of the Hebei scholars, that is, the 'Zhuolu Academy', and since then, the children of the Hebei scholar family are all proud to be disciples of Zhuolu Academy.
Liu Bei relied on his early years to learn art under Lu Zhimen, and was accepted by Lu Zhi as a disciple of Zhuolu Academy, plus he had a good relationship with Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, Liu Bei, who had this dual identity, had to be wooed by Han Fu.
As for whether Liu Bei will become bigger, Han Fu is not worried, because he has already taken precautions, that is, he only gives Liu Bei a share of 5,000 soldiers and horses, without food, he can't afford to raise soldiers, and if there are not enough soldiers and horses, he will naturally not be able to make waves.
Regarding Han Fu actually getting together with Liu Bei, and also praising Liu Bei as the Taishou of Boling County, Han Lie naturally didn't know anything at this time, because at this time he was going crazy in the sour jujube camp.
Han Lie returned to the sour jujube camp with 2,000 men and horses from the front army this time, and the defenders left in Han Fu's camp were only 1,000 people, so the reason why Han Lie was mad was naturally because someone provoked him.
This matter not only involved Xu Huang, but also involved Cai Yan, and the party who caused this incident was Liu Min, the captain of the guard army who had just recently escorted grain and grass from Yecheng to the sour jujube camp.
Liu Min is Han Fu's brother-in-law, no more than thirty years old, this person is a jade tree in the wind, and the brocade saddle horse is also quite a bit of a graceful demeanor, but this person is extremely greedy for money and lustful, relying on Han Fu's brother-in-law, he is naturally arrogant, as long as he doesn't mess with those county families, no one dares to offend him in ordinary small households.
Xin commented on Zhongzhi, and Han Fu is the same county and township party, and Liu Min has also known each other since childhood, and the Liu family is also a big family in Yingchuan, and they have a very good relationship with each other because of their similar interests.
Although Xin Ping is greedy for money and lustful, he usually hides it quite well, because for him, although his wealth is good, he is not as important as his position of power, so he usually disguises himself as a moral gentleman in front of people, and this person does have some real talents, so he has always been respected by Liu Min, and Han Fu also attaches great importance to him, so he is in charge of Jizhou's grain supply.
When Xu Huang was sent back to the sour jujube to recuperate, Han Lie also asked him to bring back the sour jujube with the thousands of gold he had earned from selling materials in Xingyang, but the gold was accidentally exposed, and was seen by Xin Ping's subordinates, and Xin Ping, who was eager for wealth in his heart, immediately instigated Liu Min to make a move, intending to seize the gold.
As a result, Cai Yan, who was disguised as a man and stayed in the camp, was recognized by Liu Min again, and under the pretext of being in the army, Liu Min took the sergeant and surrounded the camp of Xu Huang and others.
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Rong, who was sent back to the camp by Han Lie to recuperate at this time, recovered from his injuries and led the hundred private soldiers under Xu Huang's tent to defend the camp gate, the result was obviously unimaginable.
On the third day of the stalemate between the two sides, Han Lie led the army back to Suojube, and Han Fu, who returned to the camp, saw this scene, without saying a word, he killed it with a knife, and killed Liu Min at the gate of the camp.
This scene not only stunned the sergeants in the camp, but also frightened Xin Ping, who happened to return to the camp to deal with business, and he was frightened, so he immediately secretly ran out of the camp and ran to Han Fu's army.
"This person raised an army to rebel, and a certain person has been killed, and the rest are not guilty." Han Lie's horizontal knife was immediately at the gate of the camp, without looking at Liu Min, who was in a different place, his eyes coldly swept over the stunned sergeant at the gate of the camp, and said to Dian Wei, who drove the horse up: "Big brother, from now on, you will take over the defense of the camp, and if there is a violation of discipline, you will be beheaded." ”
"Whoa!" Dian Wei, who was riding on horseback, happily responded.
When Zhang He Gaolan's subordinates were re-incorporated by Han Fu when he was in Luoyang, this practice was naturally Han Fu's dissatisfaction with the intersection between Han Lie and Sun Jian.
Wang Ding, who followed all the way in the military formation, saw Han Lie Pegasus rushing out, and killed the leader with a knife in his hand, this decisive method also surprised him: "Killing the general in the camp, Zi Yang's approach is too radical." ”
"Although it is a bit excessive, doesn't my brother think that this hand has neatly solved the chaotic situation in front of him?" Although Wang Ling is young, his mind and talent are more than a step higher than Wang Dinglai.
Diao Chan, who was sitting in the carriage, saw the scene of Han Lie charging through the gap in the curtain, and a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes, although she and Han Lie did not have much intersection along the way, but she gradually discovered that this handsome young man, under the seemingly gentle face, has an old age and decisiveness that his peers do not have, such Han Lie has already begun to show his edge, which is undoubtedly more valuable to her.
"I've seen the general." Xu Rong relied on a hundred private soldiers brought back by Xu Huang, and held the camp gate for three days, forcing Liu Min, who held nearly 1,000 people, to fail to succeed, although in the past three days, thirty people have died at the camp gate, but Xu Rong has never retreated, and it is Xu Rong's bravery and leadership that can support Han Lie's return.
"Thank you, Uncle Xu." Han Lie turned over and dismounted, and helped Xu Rong, who was about to turn over and salute, looking at Xu Rong, who was full of blood and tired, it was enough to think of how difficult it was for Xu Rong to fight these days.
"Compared to the general's life, this little hard work is nothing." Xu Rong replied calmly, and said: "The person killed by the general is Han Envoyjun's wife's uncle, and I am afraid that killing it like this will cause trouble for the general." If it weren't for Liu Min's identity, Xu Rong would have already rushed into the battle and slaughtered the embroidered pillow, so why would he be forced by him.
"It's okay, I'll personally ask my uncle for this matter." Han Lie's originally calm face was filled with a smile, because directly in front of him, Cai Yan's beautiful figure was trotting towards her.
