Chapter 11: Departure
Xi'e, the original Liu Pi military camp, has now become Zhu Jun's official army camp.
The night was like ink, and Zhu Jun's handsome camp ushered in a mysterious visitor, who had a face like a crown of jade, a good appearance, a green robe, and a chic posture, which was Nanyang Taishou Qin Jie. After the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Qin Jie's ineffective defense of the city actually lost the county to govern Wancheng, but due to the deep connections in the court, he made an exception and got the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
As soon as he entered the camp gate, Qin Jie arched his hand and said loudly: "The lower official heard that the general broke the yellow scarf in Xi'e-Bailongtan today and beheaded more than 100,000 people, so I came to congratulate him." ”
Today, although the official army won in Western Hubei, it was only a rout, and it was not a victory at Bailongtan, and the beheadings were less than 30,000, but as soon as Qin Jie said this, Zhu Jun knew that he intended to falsely report his achievements and ask the court for credit.
Zhu Jun smiled slightly, his sharp gaze locked on Qin Jie, and said loudly: "The Yellow Turban thieves are huge, and they didn't know before they arrived in Nanyang, and after arriving in Nanyang, they knew that the situation had been eroded to this point, but in such a sinister situation, Lord Qin was still able to stick to his duties and take risks with himself, which can really be called a model for local officials." ”
Zhu Jun repaid the favor, and when he said this, he also deliberately wanted to excuse the court for Qin Jie's loss of the county governance of Wancheng.
After that, the two looked at each other and laughed, their expressions were ambiguous, after such a short verbal exchange, the two already had a preliminary understanding of each other. In Zhu Jun's view, Qin Jie is well versed in the way of being an official, no wonder he was able to break the practice of the Han Dynasty, but he was not dismissed and investigated after losing the county rule; In Qin Jie's eyes, Zhu Jun can fight well and is loved by soldiers, but he is also exquisite, and he is deeply respected by the imperial court.
The two of them had their own plans in their hearts, so they got back to business.
Qin Jie said: "After receiving the general's messenger, the subordinate did not dare to slack off and immediately contacted the thieves to investigate, and now the news has been returned." This person's surname is Ma Mingyue, the name is Boqi, a native of Liangzhou, and he claims to be the descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan, but there is no way to verify it for the time being. According to the information provided by the detailed work, this person seems to be separated from the Yellow Turban thieves, and he has left Liu Pi's military camp at night, accompanied by two children, whose whereabouts are unknown. ”
Zhu Jun frowned, and said in a low voice: "After being a famous general, no wonder it is so powerful!" ”
Qin Jie frowned and asked in a low voice, "What does the general plan to do?" ”
Zhu Jun's expression was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "If I surrender him, I am afraid that the generals under my command will be cold, especially Xiliang Dong Zhuo who has lost troops in the first battle today, it will be difficult to see it." This person's appearance can be drawn into an image, posted all over Nanyang and even Jingzhou counties, and the list is arrested, and once it is held, it will be displayed to the public. ”
Qin Jie's heart jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "Xia Guan understands. ”
With this decision alone, Qin Jie's understanding of Zhu Jun is three points more, and this person can be called a famous general in the world, but in terms of ambition and courage, Zhu Jun is by no means a hero, otherwise he would not have made this decision.
Zhu Jun nodded, and asked again, "Lord Qin, how are things arranged in Wancheng?" ”
Qin Jie said: "Please rest assured, everything has been arranged, I believe that news will come in a few days, and the general will only wait for Han Zhong to surrender the city." ”
Zhu Jun smiled coldly, and there was murder in his eyes.
……
Wancheng South, Liu Pi Barracks.
Liu Bi searched for Ma Yue in the camp and didn't see him, and when he was in a hurry, he met Liu Yan head-on, so he asked, "Little sister, have you seen Ma Yue?" ”
Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Brother, I'm also looking for him." ”
Liu Bi frowned, wondering where this Ma Yue was hiding? When the brothers and sisters had nothing to do, Pei Yuanshao walked in slowly from outside the gate, looking lost and depressed, as if his soul had suffered a huge trauma.
Liu Yan's eyes lit up when she saw the beauty, and she asked eagerly, "Brother Pei, have you seen Ma Yue?" ”
Pei Yuanshao nodded frustratedly and replied, "I just saw it an hour ago. ”
"And where's the other guy?"
"Gone."
"Gone!?" Liu Yan's heart was beating wildly when she heard this, and suddenly remembered that Ma Yue had told her that if she could save her eldest brother Liu Pi's life this time, then he would no longer owe the eldest brother a favor, does this mean that he is going to leave the eldest brother and the Yellow Turban Army? Thinking of this, Liu Yan became more and more anxious and asked, "Brother Pei, do you know where he went?" ”
Pei Yuanshao sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Liu Pi said: "Ma Yue'er, an ungrateful man, I saved his life in vain!" Pei Yuanshao, you quickly and I will gather five hundred sword and shield hands, and go to capture them back. ”
"Is the Governor really going to do this?" Pei Yuanshao glanced at Liu Pi and said faintly: "If there is no Ma Yue, today is the battle of Bailongtan, I am afraid that the commander, the last general and tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers have all died on the battlefield." ”
Liu Pi was furious and roared: "Pei Yuanshao, you dare to disobey? ”
Pei Yuanshao's expression was cold, and he was about to speak, but Liu Yan on the side had already said urgently: "Brother, what are you talking about, what are you arresting and coming back, please come back." ”
Pei Yuanshao sighed faintly and said: "Ma Yue is afraid that he will not come back, he said that he has saved the life of the commander today, and he has already cleared it twice." ”
"How unreasonable!"
Liu Bi was very angry, and went to the camp to order all the soldiers, preparing to arrest Ma Yue, Liu Yan was afraid that Liu Bi and Ma Yue would have a conflict, and any of the two had any damage, which was not what she wanted to see, so she had to hurriedly follow.
Seeing the figures of Liu Pi's brothers and sisters leaving, Pei Yuanshao was depressed and depressed, and even famous generals like Ma Yue left later, will there be hope for the Yellow Turban Army?
……
In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Jun raised the account to convene the generals to discuss the matter, and Qin Jie talked about Ma Yuedi, and told the generals that they were the descendants of General Fubo's horse aid.
Cao Ying's expression moved when he heard this, and he proposed: "General, Lord Qin, since Ma Yue is a famous general, why don't you let someone recruit him to surrender?" With the help of this tiger general, the court will break the yellow scarf! ”
Zhu Jun's face was expressionless, but Qin Jie couldn't help but glance at Cao Ying when he heard this, secretly thinking that this person was broad-minded and far-sighted, and he said that he must not be a thing in the pool, and he had the opportunity to make friends.
Cao Ying's voice fell, and Yuan Shao frowned and retorted: "Meng De's words are wrong, although this thief claims to be Fubo, he has no way to verify it, how can he be gullible?" Moreover, if the imperial court pardoned Ma Yue's guilt, then the yellow turbans from all over the country would follow suit, would the imperial court all pardon them? If the imperial court pardoned them, and when the officials and troops retreated, they rebelled, how could the Han Dynasty be peaceful? Yes, this case is unbreakable! ”
Dong Zhuo said: "What I said at the beginning is extremely true, thieves regardless of men, women, and children should be killed to prevent future troubles!" ”
Qin Jie shook his head secretly when he heard this, these two people are either brave and brave, or have extraordinary family backgrounds, but they are just a puppet, and it is difficult to become a big weapon after all, not as good as Cao Ying's heroic talent.
Cao Ying's brows furrowed, as if he was uncertain, but he didn't say anything after all.
Sun Jian worried: "The thieves have the courage of Ma Yue, Zhang Mancheng's people, and the benefits of Wancheng, and it may be difficult to capture them urgently." ”
Liu Bei echoed: "What Brother Wentai said is extremely true, in the battle of Bailongtan, our army has missed the opportunity for quick victory, and now the plan should contact the righteous army in all counties and cities, and it is the best policy to besiege and besiege it." ”
A mysterious smile flashed across Zhu Jun's face, and he said loudly: "You don't have to worry, the general has already taken care of it, if nothing happens, it will be within a few minutes." Although Ma Yue is brave, he has now run away alone, so he is not afraid, he has already ordered someone to draw an image, and the counties are arrested, and it is expected that there will be news within it. ”
As soon as Zhu Jun said this, the reactions of the generals under the account were different, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuozuo were dumbfounded, Sun Jian was full of doubts and seemed to disbelieve, but Cao Ying was the only one who thought deeply......
