This is Liu Xiu, who thinks carefully and sensitively, considers problems deeply, meticulously and thoroughly, and once he makes up his mind, he will do it immediately.

Liu Xiu's trust in Geng Yi has not changed all his life, and Geng Yi is also fiercely loyal to Liu Xiu until death.

In China's feudal society, in the complicated and deceitful political and military struggles, this kind of emotional fusion between monarchs and ministers who know each other is extremely rare

See.

This kind of trust and loyalty between Liu and Geng is typical, which epitomizes Liu Xiu's demeanor and explains why Liu Xiu has so many fans

The reasons also tell people:

How far can a gentleman go.

Taking advantage of Geng Yi and Wu Han's business trip, we might as well say a few more words.

To be specific, there are probably several reasons why Liu Xiu has not changed his trust in Geng Yi and his father Geng Guo throughout his life.

First, Geng Yi and his son are super loyal to Liu Xiu, which is the most important thing.

The two of them admired Liu Xiu before they met.

The son admired Liu Xiu's virtue and ability, gave up a prosperous life, and was willing to risk his life and suffer from bumps to follow Liu Xiu.

The father is not simple, in order to help his son achieve the purpose of chasing stars, in fact, it is to help Liu Xiu and put his political future and even his net worth

put his life aside, united with Yuyang to guard Peng Pet, and gave Liu Xiu valuable support at a critical time.

You must know that Liu Xiu at that time had nothing but virtue and high prestige, and at the same time, he was also excluded in the Genshi Dynasty.

You must know that when the Geng family sent troops to Liu Xiu in Shanggu, Wang Lang's power was still very strong. That is, in Hebei, in many people watching

Come, Wang Lang is the true son of the Liu clan.

Therefore, in such a social environment, if it weren't for a kind of super loyalty, it would be impossible for the two of them to do this.

The second is that both of the Geng family are too talented!

Geng Yi is young and promising, wise and brave, and talented, we have seen it, and his father Geng is not a simple character.

Lao Geng is a great Confucian, who has worked in both the central and local governments, and has gone through several dynasties, and has become an official of the local government and a feudal official (Shanggu County Taishou).

Based on the information we have so far, we believe that his talent is concentrated in his deep understanding, accurate grasp and successful operation of the complex situation

Hold on.

He knows people well, attaches importance to and promotes his subordinate Kou Sui, and obeys Geng Yiyan, who is still the son of Huangkou's son, in addition to his loyalty to Liu Han, he naturally has

A deep understanding and full trust in the current situation and these two young people.

As for his ability to navigate the troubled times, we will talk about it together below.

The third is that the two of them have made great contributions to Liu Xiu's independent development.

They requisitioned and requisitioned the Shanggu Cavalry, and made great contributions to Liu Xiu's elimination of Wang Lang, and soon, Xiao Geng went up to the Shanggu again, and had a good performance.

Not long ago, when Xiao Geng and Kou Sui led Shanggu to ride south to Liu Xiu, Lao Geng was not idle in Shanggu.

When Liu Xiu was fighting against Wang Lang over there, the First Dynasty had already begun to do various tasks to restrain Liu Xiu, and sent an envoy to Youzhou Daijun to find Tai

Shou Zhao Yong conscription.

Lao Geng used his friendship with Zhao Yong to try his best to dissuade Zhao, and successfully encouraged him to go south to submit to Liu Xiu.

(At the beginning of the expedition, Zhao Yong was too guarded by the county, and the situation was persuaded that he should never be called, so he ordered Yu Guangwu.) ）

Zhao Yong went south and found Liu Xiu to express his obedience.

But when Zhao Yong was assigned by Liu Xiu to return to Daijun to continue working, the situation changed unexpectedly:

His subordinate Zhang Ye rebelled in the city!

So, Lao Geng arranged for his youngest son Geng Shu to directly protect and help Zhao Yong, and on the other hand, he found the Xiongnu and Wuhuan soldiers.

By the way, at this time, Geng Shu had been appointed by Liu Xiu as General Hufu.

Geng Kuang and Geng Shuye deployed a battle to break the city and help Zhao Yong regain his territory.

(Yongnai has been restored.) ）

In this way, Daijun became Liu Xiu's loyal and reliable strategic base after Shanggu and Yuyang.

Although the Genshi Dynasty in Chang'an gritted its teeth with hatred, it was helpless, so it had to be ruthless to Liu Xiu.

That's not all, another great achievement of the Geng family is to defeat the local armed forces of the five schools and ensure the social and political stability in the Shanggu area.

There were more than 200,000 people in the army of the five schools, and when the elite soldiers of Shanggu went south to support Liu Xiu, they often came to Shanggu to harass them.

Geng Kuang, Geng Shu, father and son led their troops, met the enemy at the right time, and won successive battles, so that it was difficult for them to gain a foothold in Shanggu, so they had to rout.

(When the five school thieves were more than 200,000 Beikou went to the valley, and Shu Lian broke it, and the thieves all retreated.) ）

Therefore, under the auspices of Lao Geng, the Shanggu area became a very consolidated and reliable base for Liu Xiu, and it developed in Liu Xiu's strategic layout of pacifying Hebei

Playing an extremely important role.

Then, if you want to start with Liu Xiu, you will naturally not let go of this.

This is what we said earlier, and we began to directly dispatch cadres to Youzhou, Shanggu, and Yuyang counties.

However, the "bad money" of the First Dynasty did not understand, or understood, but could not change this truth:

In troubled times, speaking depends on strength.

Let's take a look.

In the face of a more multi-pronged clamping action, Liu Xiu decided to play a combination of political and military punches, that is: political strategy and military killing go hand in hand, resist

The order of the First Dynasty and the suppression of local armed forces were carried out at the same time.

He felt that he had this wisdom, and now he also had this strength!

To this end, he took a series of measures to reorganize and expand the army, which we will talk about later.

Because, Geng Yi and Wu Han have already gone on a business trip, and they will have a wonderful performance soon, and we can't miss it.

When he learned that Liu Xiu sent Geng Yi and Wu Han to the north to recruit troops, Miao Zeng, who had just been appointed as Youzhou Mu at the beginning, secretly ordered all counties: No troops are allowed!

Wu Han and Geng Yi acted separately.

Wu Han believes that since Miao Zeng has done his job to this extent, there is nothing to say, so he can only find him directly first.

Wu Han went straight to Youzhou Prefecture to rule Wuzhong City (near present-day Jixian County, Hebei) to find the Governor of Miao.

Due to the fact that the Genshi Dynasty had reached the late stage at this time, coupled with institutional and institutional reasons, it could no longer send "good money" from the cadre ranks.

In other words, Miao Zeng and his ilk really can't do it.

You see.

Miao once heard that Wu Han was coming, thinking that he must be caught off guard, so he wanted to set a trap to take him down.

He carefully laid out a bureau, set up heavy troops, and planned to introduce Wu Han into the bureau and then capture and behead him.

He expected that when Wu Hanchu came, it was impossible to bring many people, and it was impossible to take any action immediately, so it was still okay to catch him off guard.

In order to perform the play well, express his honesty, and make Wu Han obediently enter the set, Governor Miao also put on an official posture and personally went out of the city to greet him.

Wu Han led only 20 elite riders.

Wu Han always believes that acting well does not necessarily require many people.

Outside the endless city, Wu Han met with Miao Zeng, who came to greet him.

As soon as the two sides met, Wu Han immediately ordered the knights in his entourage to take Miao down and behead him on the spot.

Miao's retinue and the soldiers defending the city were so shocked that they opened their mouths.

Wu Han's movements were swift and coherent, and he immediately commanded his men to rush into the city, and controlled the key people and key parts with lightning speed.

(Once the Han was unprepared, out of the road, the Han waved his troops and horses, collected the Zeng beheaded, and seized his army.) ）

Wu Han is almost an original tiger's den this time, his action is so violent, so sudden, and so successful, it has become an explosive news,

The city of Wuwu and its surroundings obediently obeyed.

Almost at the same time as Wu Han made a move, Geng Yi also soon came to his hometown Shanggu.

As if he had discussed it with Wu Han, he did things without being verbose and neat.

One day, he personally led the light cavalry to find Wei Shun, the Taishou of Shanggu, and Cai Chong, the Taishou of Yuyang, who had just been appointed by the change, and couldn't help but say that they were beheaded on the spot, which was simply Wu

Reproduction and reproduction of Han Kill Miao Zeng.

Geng Yi and Wu Han's actions shocked the entire Youzhou area, and the cadres and masses who belonged to Liu Xiuxin were elated, and they had illusions about Wang Lang and Gengshi

People are terrified and subdued.

As a result, Geng and Ang Ge'er successfully requisitioned the elite soldiers and iron cavalry from various counties in Youzhou, and quickly went south to return to Liu Xiu.

Well, there's nothing to hide anymore, let's get to work!
