Chapter 59: Jingnan Rebellion
Huo Yi looked at it when he heard the sound, but saw a man standing there dressed as a scribe's shirt, and the guards were watching the two of them vigilantly.
Huo Yi slowly walked closer, and the man abandoned the knife and knelt on the ground: "Du Ming Du Ziyang, a native of Fangling, has seen General Huo!" I heard the general's prestige early, and I came from Fangling to serve the general! I hope the general will accept Du Ming! β
Huo Yi just wanted to speak, but saw that the scribe who was pressed was not someone else, it was Xu Chong, the magistrate of Qu Ren, who pointed to Du Ming on the ground, and said coldly: "Take this with me!" β
Without saying a word, the guards went up and pressed Du Ming to the ground, and tied him with ropes.
The man shouted: "The villain came to serve the general, why did the general tie me up?" β
Huo Yi swept the man coldly: "Do you know who you are pressing?" Thieves are bold! β
The man glanced at Xu Chong and said loudly: "This guy is going to attack the general secretly, and I killed the people under him, and he came here to make a name with the general, why didn't the general tie him up and tie me up?" β
Huo Yi's eyebrows froze when he heard this, and he turned to look at Xu Chong: "County Magistrate Xu, what he said is the truth?" β
Before Xu Chong could speak, the man shouted: "He hired me to shoot the general, but fortunately it was not successful, I came here from Fangling, exhausted my entanglement, and hunted in the mountains to save money, just to save money for the journey, and go to the general to serve the general, this guy took the property with me, and asked me to ambush here and shoot the general." The villain didn't know that it was General Huo who he was going to kill, and it wasn't until they leaked their mouths on the way that I realized that I almost caused a big disaster! Don't look at him as the head of a county and mistake him for a good person! β
Huo Yi swept towards Xu Chong when he heard this, Xu Chong knew that he couldn't escape, so he simply said calmly: "Hmph, I didn't kill you, it's really your luck!" There is no need to say much nonsense. Do it! β
That Du Ming was not tightened, and a mouthful of spit was spit on Xu Chong's face: "I'm phew!" Just now I knelt under your grandfather's feet, begging my grandfather to spare your life, but you pretended to have a backbone in front of General Huo, you are also worthy! β
Huo Yi was in a cold sweat at this time. didn't want this man who wanted to serve himself to be so strong and straightforward, so he hurriedly stopped the man: "Okay! Then he looked at the guards who tied up the man: "And loosen the tie with him!" β
Huo Yi looked at Xu Chong and said coldly: "Tell me, who sent you!" That Xu Chong was proud of his head and refused to speak.
Ye Bing pulled out his sword and slowly placed it on Xu Chong's chest. Said coldly: "Be smart! Otherwise, the master will let you not survive, and you can't die! β
The man was still cold, and Ye Zhi smiled: "I often hear people say that Ling Chi is the most bitter!" But I don't know how bitter it is, and I haven't seen it! Maybe you can see it today, and cut off the flesh from your body piece by piece. What would it be like for you? β
Xu Chong was not a tough person, otherwise he would not have knelt on the ground and begged for mercy after Du Ming killed all his men.
At this moment, after listening to Ye Zhi's words and looking at this gloomy man, he subconsciously understood that this was a character who would do what he said.
Xu Chong licked his dry lips: "I am a fine work sent by General Cao Zixiao to Shuzhong!" I heard that General Huo crossed into Jingzhou to rush to the aid of the Xiangfan battlefield, so he was ordered by General Cao. Kill the general here. β
Huo Yi was shocked when he heard this, he never thought that Cao Jun's scout details were so rampant and deep, Chai Huan from the previous time, plus Xu Chong now, Huo Yi subconsciously felt a little chilling, like a character like Rough Red, he has already achieved the head of a county, if a county is too guarded, there are also fine works, or rather. The lord Liu Bei has such a figure beside him, what should he do?
Huo Yi didn't speak, but slowly left, Ye Ji also followed, Huo Yi said in a deep voice: "Can such a person be used?" β
Ye Bing nodded: "Since this guy can be the head of a county in our side." It can be seen that Cao Zixiao has spent a lot of effort, and this guy's status in his intelligence system should not be low! The last general suggested that a capable scout be transferred to this place, control this guy, and make him the mouthpiece of our army, perhaps, the unlimited role in the future is undecided! β
Huo Yi frowned: "If he stays here, it will be extremely troublesome for us to control it, and the results will not be very effective." What do you think of transferring him to Jingnan? β
Ye Bing nodded: "Bajun Taishou Fu Kuang is a native of Xiangyang, and he has always been good with the old master, the young master has a letter with him, and then explain it to the lord, but he can be transferred to Jingnan, so it can be easily controlled!" β
"Cheng, just do it, you are fully responsible for this matter, and you must let as few people know as possible! If it's done, we will have one more hole card in our hand! Huo Yi said in a deep voice.
"Whoa!" Ye Ji replied.
Huo Yi looked back at Du Ming, his brows furrowed, Fangling people, it seems that Liu Feng and Meng Da just captured Fangling County a few months ago, which is a bit interesting. He also instructed Ye Jiong: "In your opinion, can this Du Ming be used?" β
Ye Wei was stunned: "This person's archery skills are amazing, and the residual momentum of that arrow is extremely great, and he actually shot down the young master's guard." He slashed and killed most of Xu Chong's men, which shows that his swordsmanship is also quite accomplished! It's a talent! Is the young master worried about his origin? The last will send someone to find out the details of him! β
Huo Yi nodded, Ye Zhi is now more and more popular, often with a few simple words, Ye Zhi can get the gist of it, and it seems that he has become an indispensable and important role around Huo Yi.
Ye Zhi took the order and left, but Huo Yi said loudly: "You go to the guard camp first, stay in Jingnan, and then assign duties with you!" The general does not raise idlers, and his official and military merits all depend on his own ability! β
That Du Ming was a bold man, but he didn't say anything, only said: "General, look at my performance later!" β
Huo Yi nodded: "Speed up, be sure to clear the obstacles before dawn, and the armies will take turns to rest and maintain their strength!" As soon as the morning dawns, we will go! β
"Whoa!"
Du Ming looked at these elite soldiers, looked at the quiet but very resolute figure not far ahead, and felt at ease in his heart, he had become General Huo's subordinate after all.
When the day dawned, the remains of the scouts were all collected and waited, Huo Yi personally buried the corpses, and then the whole army mounted their horses and went straight to Jingnan. That Xu Chong was specially sent for Huo Yi to press the back team.
Then the road is very open, no longer hindered, and soon, the White Emperor City is already in sight.
The White Emperor City, which was the Yong'an of later generations, was the advance base for the Shu to fight against the Wu State after the loss of Jingzhou, and a large number of elites were stationed all year round.
At this time, the White Emperor City was used as the seat of Ba County, and it was also the only place for the river to go to Nanjun, where nearly 5,000 elite sailors and more than 1,000 elite Bai Yu soldiers were stationed.
Bajun is too shou fu kuang, is the old man who served the lord after the princess took care of Jingzhou, and his father Huo Jun is close friends, according to reason, he also wants to call his uncle.
Fu Kuang also got the news that Huo Yi was going to the White Emperor City early, and even prepared a banquet in the city to entertain the son of the old man and the new favorite of the lord.
Huo Yi didn't want to waste more time on the road, but at this moment, the personal guards were already sleepy and tired, and when they entered the White Emperor City, they could only rest and recuperate.
Fu Kuang is a famous general in Shu, and there are a lot of barbarians in Ba County, but he can't raise his head for the thousands of elite soldiers suppressed by Fu Kuang, compared to Liu Zhang's chaos at the time, but there are two situations. Fu Kuang also selected elite soldiers from among the children of Ba County to enrich the military strength of Ba County.
Huo Yi's arrival made Fu Kuang very happy, and he even handed over his newly formed Bajun soldiers to Huo Yi to take to Jingnan. You must know that these county soldiers have been trained, even if they are the private subordinates of Fu Kuang, the children of Ba County are brave and brave, and everyone knows that these soldiers have been trained for a long time, and they are already quite large-scale.
Huo Yi repeatedly refused, but Fu Kuang strongly demanded, except for Fu Kuang, there are few people in the Fu family who can become a tool, and Fu Kuang has no children under his knees, so he has only two daughters. If it weren't for Huo Yi already having a wife, Fu Kuang would even have to marry his daughter to Huo Yi.
Huo Yi couldn't refuse, only half of it was accepted, but he had to wait for Gao Jin's army to arrive at this time, and then take it away, after all, most of his subordinates were cavalry, if he brought this Qianba County soldiers, the pace of the march would be much slower, and now the situation in Jingzhou is delicate, and he can rest assured if he arrives in Jingnan a day earlier.
The next day, Huo Yi, who had finished resting, said goodbye to Fu Kuang, led these hundreds of elites out of the east gate, and went straight to the naval army outside the city, to board the ship to Jingzhou.
At this moment, Jingnan was just as Huo Yi expected, the situation was extremely delicate, Guan Yu surrounded Xiangyang and attacked in a big way, and Cao Jun retreated to Xiangfan and held out. The mountain people of Wancheng rioted, Taishou was imprisoned, and Cao Jun was extremely passive.
On the contrary, the Jiangdong Army in Jingnan was extremely active, and two days ago, LΓΌ Meng even held a meeting of the three armies on the border with Lingling in Changsha County, and Wang Chong, who was across the river, was extremely worried. Liu Min mobilized materials from Quanling City to fund the military.
Deng Ai also found that the Jiangdong Army in the Guiyang area was frequently mobilized, which was extremely abnormal.
Everything is as unpredictable as the clouds, and all forces are making moves. Huo Yi is rushing towards Jingnan, and the world's vision is gathered on Jingzhou, which is a third of an acre, and the future of the three forces is complicated and intertwined at this moment.
