Chapter 102: Chen Xianda

"Don't worry, king, let me see the silver you brought." Sun Youcai actually dared to talk to him like this, Gao Huan was already angry in his heart, but he was still very calm on the surface, and asked people to carry out a large box of silver ingots. Sun Youcai looked at it, just shook his head, and continued: "King, now that the situation has changed, this Cao Xian is afraid that there is more than one box of silver, and it will take two boxes." ”

This grandson actually dared to sit on the ground and raise the price, and sure enough, it was a poor mountain and bad water out of the people, Gao Huan scolded and scolded: "Sun Youcai, you are so untrustworthy, aren't you afraid that I will kill you and take Cao Xian away directly?" ”

"Haha King, can you see clearly, is he Cao Xian?" Sun Youcai laughed. Gao Huan didn't know Cao Xian himself, so he didn't know if this guy on horseback was Cao Xian himself, and he could only say vaguely at the moment: "No matter how we agreed, I will bring the money, you will bring the people, let's hand over the money with one hand and the other with the money, without delay, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Hmph, everyone says that you are witty and resourceful, my grandson has always been unbelieved, and today it is better to be famous than to meet like this, you idiot really think that I am here to surrender?" Sun Youcai's face suddenly changed, and he whistled behind him, and suddenly a large number of armed militiamen appeared on the left and right sides and surrounded Gao Huan and dozens of them.

"Sun Youcai, you want to rebel?!" Gao Huan asked loudly in anger at this time.

"I'm sorry, my grandson has already made up his mind to rebel, now bring your head and Cao Xian's money, I can go to Nanliang to spend my old age in secret, hahaha. You two gangsters end up stumbling over one of my minor characters. It's really providential, my grandson is a talented person as his name suggests, he is really talented. ”

Gao Huan also laughed on the horse. Sun Youcai didn't understand a little, and looked at him laughing and said a little angrily: "Are you crazy, you are still in the mood to laugh, hurry up and think about how to beg me to spare your life." ”

"Haha Sun Youcai, I think you are really stupid, look at who Lao Tzu is?" After that, Gao Huan suddenly tore off the human skin mask on his face, and it turned out to be Gao Zhongming!!

Sun Youcai was suddenly shocked. He said again and again: "How can this be? How so? It shouldn't be. At this time, Gao Zhongming whistled, and suddenly the mountains were full of Gao Huan's personal guards, and these people were usually well-trained. All of them are strong and strong, and they can fight four or five people, this time Gao Zhongming took these more than 500 people to the meeting in person, and Sun Youcai's rabble of thousands of people is not enough to see at all.

They were all improvised miscellaneous armed forces of street scoundrels or bandits. If you don't have a degree of cooperation, forget it. Even the basic drills are very irregular, and the weapons and equipment are also varied, and even some people take out everything that is done with farm work, and in peacetime fighting with the local army is just relying on the tactics of crowds to suppress it, and if you really encounter the elite division of the regular army, it will collapse at the touch of a thousand miles.

Sun Youcai still held on to a glimmer of hope and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, kill me!" The miscellaneous soldiers behind him rushed up. Coming towards Gao Zhongming and them in a disorderly manner, Gao Zhongming shouted: "Set up the formation!" "On the top of the mountain, the sword and shield arrays were immediately discharged from the upper body, the left and right sides. The archers who pressed the formation rained arrows, and Sun Youcai's people were killed and injured countless before they got close, and whoever dared to rush forward without their lives was all throwing away their armor and fleeing for their lives.

Sun Youcai's shouting and shouting couldn't stop the retreating miscellaneous soldiers, he dismounted angrily and stabbed a miscellaneous soldier who was fleeing for his life, and shouted in his mouth: "I let you escape, this is the end!" But the torrent of deserters was not affected by him at all, and a thousand people fled without a moment's effort, and he himself wanted to get on the horse when he saw that the situation was urgent.

Over there, Gao Zhongming saw it really, and the bow and arrow swished right into the leg of the mount under Sun Youcai's crotch, and the horse neighed in pain and galloped a few steps before he stopped and fell to the ground due to his serious injury, Sun Youcai was anxious like a monkey, abandoning the horse and walking. Gao Zhongming waved his hand, and four or five cavalrymen beside him rushed out of the formation and headed in the direction of Sun Youcai.

"Well, what else do you have to say now?" Gao Huan looked at Sun Youcai with a smile on his face, this grandson was tied up and thrown to the ground, and his face was on the carpet.

"I don't accept it, you cheat!" Sun Youcai also scolded. Gao Huan said indifferently: "I have long had an inside line to investigate the situation within you, and Cao Xian's IQ still dares to play tricks with me, your name is Sun Youcai, I don't think you are very talented, and your parents will not get this name for you." After speaking, Gao Huan asked Sun Youcai to loosen his ties, and served tea and snacks.

"I can let you go back, but this time you have to really do it for me." Gao Huan said to Sun Youcai, who was eating snacks. Sun Youcai was hungry and was gobbling up, as soon as he heard what he said, he immediately put down the pastry in his hand, and asked with a little disbelief: "Do you really let me go back?" Don't you have an inside line inside us, and you want me to do it as an inside line? ”

"There are some things I can't do on that insider, only you can do it." Immediately, Gao Huan whispered in his Sun Youcai's ear, Sun Youcai listened to it for a long time, and Gao Huan said: "If you really do things for me, your glory and wealth will be indispensable after the matter is completed, otherwise even if you escape back, I just need to let out the wind and say that you and I have secretly negotiated the conditions to betray Cao Xian, and you are a death!" ”

Sun Youcai sat on the chair like a deflated ball, and Gao Huan hit the railroad while it was hot: "Don't think about it, I will definitely give you more than Cao Xian will give you, and it will also protect the safety of your whole family, think about it yourself." ”

After a while, Sun Youcai seemed to have made up his mind, nodded vigorously, and said to Gao Huan: "King, you treat me so well, I will definitely go to the soup for you." I did it! ”

"That's right, think about your mother, children, and your wife's land, right?" Gao Huan was very proud in his heart, and after getting Sun Youcai, Cao Xian was not far from death. It's called counting and counting.

Cao Xian originally wanted to earn Gao Huan's head to ask for a reward, but he didn't expect to lose his head by Sun Youcai's betrayal.

Gao Huan himself was also very satisfied with this deal, compared to the cost of military action. With a little favor to solve Cao Xian's forces, it is definitely not a loss and quite cost-effective, and you have to eat when you fight. Do you want to die, no money for pensions and weapons and equipment? In case of a year and a half of dragging, the loss will be greater, so Sun Tzu's Art of War says that the so-called warrior's heart is to attack the city and attack the city to the bottom, and the army to surrender without a fight is the best policy.

According to the conspiracy of Gao Huan and Sun Youcai, it will take some time to prepare to earn Cao Xian's head, so this head will be put down for the time being. Sun Youcai went back to him as an undercover agent safely, reporting on the situation of Cao Xian and the movements of his subordinates.

"King, it seems that this Chen Xianda really led his troops to attack General Gao Yue's grain road." Xu Mingzhi took the latest news to report to Gao Huan. This is very important information, Gao Huan was originally lying on the couch and pretending to sleep, but as soon as he heard the news, he immediately sat up and threw aside the coat he was draped on. "Really? Show me it. ”

Xu Mingzhi respectfully presented the secret letter. Gao Huan looked at the side carefully, then pressed his hands on his knees, and said with a smile: "It seems that everything is really as the old master said, this Chen Xianda is really deadly, and he dares to go deep into the hinterland of our army to attack and disturb." ”

"Who says it's not, their troops are now in the area from Yingchuan to Ruyang, and the forwards have even reached Xingyang, and the battle line is so long. It's a taboo for soldiers, and it seems that this Chen Xianda is also in vain. Xu Mingzhi seems to always stand with Gao Huan. I thought of one place. This is called following in the footsteps of leaders, and many of the principles of ****** are the same as in the mixed workplace.

According to intelligence, Chen Xianda is the sitting general of Xiao Baorong, the king of Nankang in the former dynasty, because he and Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan raised troops together to fight against the mediocre Emperor of Qi Dongdu, and the trust of Xiao Yan was deep, so after the Qi Dynasty was replaced by Xiao Yan's Liang Dynasty, Chen Xianda was not only not implicated, but was promoted several levels in a row, and was even more favored than his old lord Xiao Baorong, before Chen Xianda had been stationed in Jiangxi and Hunan, and later Emperor Wu of Liang was instigated by Jiangnan Shi Dafu, and actually wanted to fight back to the Central Plains to recover the territory of the Han Dynasty, so he was transferred back to the generalissimo of Jiankang and led the army north to take advantage of the chaos into Xuzhou.

This Chen Xianda thought that he was here to restore the old land, and it stands to reason that the local people should eat pot pulp to welcome the king, but he didn't expect that no one responded to enter Xuzhou at the beginning, but he also encountered a lot of resistance, and had no choice but to return to Shanyang County in Northern Yanzhou to garrison, and it didn't take long for the drought and the Yellow River to flood in Shandong, and the mishandling of the Eastern Wei government led to boiling public resentment, which gave Chen Xianda the opportunity to incite the people to rebel.

Therefore, opportunities are always given to those who are prepared, Chen Xianda's initial failure did not give up, and only then did the states of Shandong become chaotic, which led to the matter of Gao Huan's personal expedition, so in the Southern Liang court, not only the emperor Xiao Yan, but even the Manchu civil and military people turned from suspicion and slander to praise him from the beginning, so sometimes we really need a victory to prove ourselves when we do things, but the premise is that we must first abandon and not give up, and persevere to the end.

Of course, this Chen Xianda is also a little capable, neither frightened by the initial domestic condemnation, nor confused by the later vanity, once returned to Beijing to report on his work by the way to Xiahou Xiang to ask for a knighthood and official position, Emperor Xiao Yan asked the attendants to carry out two large baskets of recitals at the celebration banquet, all of which were impeached Chen Xianda, pointing to the recitals in the basket and saying: "What do you think of this?" Chen Xianda didn't say a word, and immediately knelt down and said: "Thanks to Your Majesty's wisdom, you can make a lot of contributions." ”

Therefore, the support and trust of the boss are indispensable for this subordinate to become a success.

However, the strength of the Liang State is limited after all, and the long-term supply of Chen Xianda's troops has overstretched the Liang Dynasty, which has won the national strength, not to mention that the later separating such as Cao Xian, Wang Fadu, Xiahou Xiang and others also reached out to the Liang State, and the silver of the household department flowed out, and gradually the courtiers began to collectively reflect on the pros and cons of this matter, and Emperor Wu's close attendant eunuch Wang Ying and Chen Xianda failed to collect bribes, so they angrily said bad things about him in front of Xiao Yan.

In desperation, Chen Xianda can only rely on his own strength to survive in the territory of Wei, the garrison in Tuntian is unrealistic, the front line is still fighting, there is no extra troops to be transferred out of Tuntian, and it takes time to grow food, they are already in the disaster area They dare not ask the local tyrants for money and food, so under such difficulties, Chen Xianda can only take risks and take people deep into the hinterland of Wei to rob the government grain.

However, Gao Yue's 50,000 horses in Chenliu County in the south had already been staring at him fiercely, and Gao Huan, who was engaged in popular work in Yanzhou, also had the ability to draw troops to encircle and suppress him under the premise of initial results, so Chen Xianda's situation at this time was really not much better, and the officials in Sizhou had received He Batsheng's order, and they were waiting for Chen Xianda with strong walls. So many times, Chen Xianda's life is not as comfortable as that of a bandit. (To be continued.) )
