Chapter 192: When the catastrophe comes, they fly separately, and the down-and-out princes are not as good as the people
Chapter 192 The catastrophe is coming, and they fly separately, and the down-and-out princes are not as good as the people
The above book says that Gao Shun killed Li Cai, the defender of Hefei.
The warriors of the trapped camp with 3,000 swords and axes have already killed 8,000 soldiers under Li Cai. Only 800 warriors of the camp killed more than 3,000 enemy soldiers, and if they hadn't run fast, I am afraid that there would have been even more!
Thousands of corpses lay on the ground outside the city, blood seeping to the surface and staining the soil red. The smell of blood wafted through the air, and it was disgusting.
The soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, and Gao Shun led the soldiers of the camp into Hefei.
Hefei City can be regarded as a big city in Huainan. Knowing that Li Cai was killed in battle and the official army won a complete victory, the officials in the city knelt in front of the yamen with Yin Sui in their hands and waited for the arrival of Gao Shun's soldiers and horses.
Gao Shun sent someone to take them into custody and sent someone to send a letter to Liu Bei.
In the evening, Liu Bei's army entered Hefei.
Gao Shun made a report to Liu Beiyu, and then presented Hefei Yinsui to him.
Liu Bei instructed: "Bring a group of officials up." ”
"No!"
After a short time, Gao Shun escorted more than a dozen officials up.
Looking at the officials kneeling in front of the hall, Liu Bei said with a smile: "Zixian, let them loosen the ties!" ”
"No!" Gao Shun, who was silent, agreed, and then led someone to untie them.
A group of officials hurriedly kowtowed to Liu Bei to thank him.
Liu Beiyan said: "Yuan Highway made a mess, and it was not your mistake. Knowing that you are lost is meritorious! Now I want to reinstate you and other officials, but I don't know what you want? ”
"Thank you for the grace of the reconstruction!"
"Thank you for the grace of the reconstruction!"
……
When an official is reused, he will work harder to do his job well.
They are all veterans of officialdom, and they naturally know how to figure out the thoughts and measurements of the superiors, and can control the consciousness direction of the superiors. This is the basis for them to be able to surrender at the right time.
And the generals who were still fighting with Cai Mao and Wen Ping in the south also got the news of Yuan Shu's defeat and heard the rumors of the destruction of Shouchun City. Zhang Xun immediately sent his subordinate Han Xian to lead troops to reinforce Hefei, and also sent a horse to investigate the whereabouts of Yuan Shu, the puppet son of Qi.
Han Xian left the camp with his own soldiers and horses, feeling quite uneasy.
This feeling had been felt when he was guarding Emperor Xian's side, but it was not so obvious. He was born in the White Wave Army, but he was different from those White Wave thieves. He was very aware of the changes in current events. Although he has been under Yuan Shu's command, he has long been aware of it.
Halfway through, he met a defeated soldier who had retreated from Hefei.
From the mouth of the defeated soldiers, he knew that Li Cai had been defeated and died, and Hefei had fallen into Liu Bei's pocket.
He decisively ordered his soldiers to stop their advance and set up camp on the spot.
Summoning his subordinates Sima and the captain, he asked, "Yuan Highway was defeated, and he doesn't know where he went. May I ask you, what should you do? ”
"General, in the past, you had a meritorious role in saving the driver in Guanzhong, but Cao Cao got the advantage, so you and Yang Feng voted for Yuan Shu. Now that the general trend of Yuan Shu has gone, why should the public be loyal to it? A Sima said.
A lieutenant also chimed in: "The general has the power of the army, and he will be reused wherever he goes." Why do you want to help Yuan Highway alone? ”
It seems that the loyalty of all the people under his command to Yuan Shu is more loyal to him!
Seeing everyone like this, Han Xian was quite relieved in his heart, nodded and said: "A certain military order was sent to reinforce Hefei, but now it is meaningless. Therefore, a certain plan to lead you to vote for the left general Liu Xuande, I don't know what you think? ”
"But it's up to the general to decide!" And indeed the people were of the same mind as him.
Han Xian said again: "Liu Xuande has an old friend Liu Pi and Liu Taichu in the army, if this person mediates, he will definitely be able to achieve this." Who are you sending a letter to? ”
A captain stepped forward to receive the order: "A certain general is willing to go." ”
Han Xian was overjoyed, so he wrote a letter and sent him to send it as soon as possible.
Liu Pi and Gong both finally got Liu Bei's approval, snatched the first battle order of the next battle from the generals, and led more than 5,000 soldiers and horses from their headquarters, which happened to be opposite to Han Xian's department.
Han Xian's subordinate Captain Yuanmen has followed Han Xian for many years and also knows Liu Pi. Seeing soldiers and horses approaching in the distance, he hid behind a tree to observe, and recognized Liu Pi at a glance.
"General Liu, General Liu......"
At first hearing the shout, Liu Bi followed the sound and saw a person coming on horseback.
Running closer, the man jumped off his horse and bowed in front of the horse: "I have seen General Liu, the little General Han Xian's subordinate Captain XX of Yuanmen." ”
"What? Han Xian's subordinates?! Liu Pi asked the soldiers to help him up, and then asked, "Where is Han Xian now?" ”
The captain of the Yuanmen recounted the past, and then said: "I hope that the general can see the past situation and help my general to say a lot of good words before General Zuo!" ”
After listening to him, Liu Pi was overjoyed, turned around and glanced at Gong Du, and then said to the captain of the Yuanmen: "You quickly go back and report to General Han, and then go to see General Zuo and explain this matter!" Later, we will go to the camp to meet him. ”
The captain of the Yuanmen was overjoyed, so he said goodbye to Liu Pi and rode back.
Liu Pi handed over the soldiers and horses to Gong Du, took two personal guards, hurried back to fatten, and reported to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei advocated benevolent governance and advocated the attack of soldiers without a fight.
So when Liu Piyu finished reporting, he smiled slightly and said: "Han Xian is not bad in nature, and he also has the merit of saving the driver. If you are willing to raise troops to vote, you should take them in! Or, Taichu, you go back and tell him that you will be in charge of his ministry for the time being! ”
With Liu Bei's permission, Liu Bi hurriedly chased Gong Du again.
Sending Liu Pi away on the city tower, Liu Bei said to Chen Gongyan: "Yuan Highway is untrustworthy in the world, and the generals under his command have learned that his whereabouts are unknown, and they are all running around for their own way out!" Hey, it's really a catastrophe to fly separately! ”
"Yes! Now it's Han Xian, and the second Han Xian and the third Han Xian will continue to appear until their territory is lost......" Chen Gong said casually.
"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed......
Besides, when he caught up with Gong Du, Liu Pi found that he had arrived not far from Han Xian's camp.
He immediately took several soldiers and went straight to Han Xianyuanmen.
Knowing that Liu Pi was coming, Han Xian came to greet him outside the gate.
Old friends were very happy to see each other. Han Xianyan invited Liu Pi into the camp.
"Dare to ask Brother Taichu, can there be a response to something you ask for?" After Liu Bi sat down, Han Xian asked eagerly.
"Brother Xian, don't worry. My lord has a good heart, and cannot bear the poison of the people, and when he heard that you intended to raise an army, he told a certain answer to you. And two things are specially allowed. One is that your ministry is still under your jurisdiction and will not break the establishment; The second is that the military horses of the Rubu will be under the jurisdiction of a certain place from now on. Liu Pi's very steady attitude made everyone happy and convinced.
These two things are very important to Han Xian and agree with very much.
"Everything that Brother Xian said is true! Siam was willing to comply. ”
Following Liu Bei's general order, Han Xian became Liu Pi's deputy general, and was listed with Gong Du.
With one army, their troops have exceeded 10,000 people.
Besides, on the Jingyang battlefield, the two armies faced each other in Qianshan.
Under the cover of Ji Ling and others, Yuan Highway, the down-and-out son of heaven, came to Qianshan and asked Zhang Xun to quickly lead his troops to retreat to the nest. Because Juchao still has hundreds of thousands of loads of grain, with the support of grain, he has the opportunity to retreat from the Yangtze River to Youzhou along the coast through the waterway.
How do you know that Zhang Xun is a little resistant!
After waiting for Yuan Shu, Yuan Tan and others to rest, Ji Ling came to see Zhang Xun again.
"Gongluo, if the lord wants to go to the nest, why not?" Ji Ling asked.
Zhang Xun said disdainfully: "Now that the military power is in my hands, if you don't go, what can you do?" ”
"You?!" Ji Ling was choked by Zhang Xun and couldn't speak.
But seeing Zhang Xun laughing, his expression suddenly changed, and he said to Ji Lingyan viciously: "If you hadn't retreated all the way, how could the lord be so downcast?" Now you want to go to the nest to seek my food and grass? Today, I will tell you the truth, the grain and grass in the nest are military food, and no one is allowed to use it privately! Not even Your Majesty! ”
"You want to rebel?" Ji Ling reprimanded sharply.
Zhang Xun said disapprerovingly: "Outside, the king's order is not affected!" After finishing speaking, Ji Ling was driven out.
Ji Ling was very angry, and rushed back to the camp angrily, secretly sulking.
Seeing Ji Ling rushing away, Zhang Xun's eyes became more profound, profitable, and with a hint of viciousness.
"Herald!" He suddenly shouted.
"Here!"
"Quickly invite General Hou and General Zhennan to come."
"No!"
After a short time, General Yang Feng and General Qiao Mao of Zhennan arrived one after another.
Zhang Xun said to the two: "Ji Zicong escorted the lord here, and what he ran to was the grain and grass that we were living in the nest. It seems that the purpose of Yuan Benchu's eldest son should be to lead us to Jizhou and join him under the command of Lao Tzu! ”
Yang Feng said thoughtfully: "There is no problem with throwing myself under Yuan Benchu, but when I get there, will I be bullied by them." After all, it is the world of Hebei people, not to mention, Yan Liang and Wen Chou are far better than you and me. ”
What General Hou said is not unreasonable. Wouldn't it be a great loss for you and me to run thousands of miles to get there, but we ended up with nothing?! There is a way, I don't know what the two of you think? Hashimao said mysteriously.
"Oh?! If you have any plan, please face to face. Zhang Xun said.
Qiao Mao said: "No matter what, you and I have to choose one of the princes to take refuge!" Right? ”
"That's, that's!" The two said in unison.
"Then why don't we capture Yuan Highway and give it to General Liu Bei of the left first, in order to gain fame?" The bridge thief said with a smile.
"What?!" The two of them were bold, but they hadn't thought about using Yuan Shu as a bargaining chip.
The three of them discussed in a low voice, but somehow ran into the ears of the fourth.
Who is the fourth? is also a person in the Yuan valve - Yuan Fengyi's son Yuan Teng.
He originally came to find Ji Ling, but he didn't know that Ji Ling had already left, and he happened to hear their conversation.
When he heard this, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, so he could only tiptoe out of a certain distance before hurrying to Ji Ling's camp and telling Ji Ling about it.
Ji Ling was already angry, where was Zhang Xun willing to be?
He didn't wear armor, so he picked up a three-pointed two-edged knife and went straight to Zhang Xun's camp, insisting on killing Zhang Xun......
