Chapter 142: Warning

When Bing Yuan walked into the Liaodong Marquis' Mansion, Liu Yi happened to lead the army into Xiangping City.

When Gongsun Du heard that Bing Yuan had come to visit, he felt a little strange in his heart, and he couldn't figure out what he was going to do when he came to see him at this time. Zhu Min's family obviously fled with Han Heng, and Han Heng went to Liao Team City to visit Bing Yuan, and now Bing Yuan appeared alone, so where did Zhu Min and Han Heng go?

With questions, Gongsun Du politely received Bing Yuan.

Bing Yuan said straight to the point: "I heard that the general is arresting Liu Zheng? ”

Gongsun Du nodded expressionlessly and admitted the matter.

Bing Yuan continued: "A few days ago, Han Heng brought Zhu Min to visit me and said a lot of strange things! ”

Gongsun Du couldn't help but be curious and asked, "What kind of strange words?" ”

"He hopes that I can follow him to Jicheng, saying that he has prepared a big boat in the lower reaches of Liaoshui, and as long as I agree, he can take my family away."

"What? There is such a thing! Gongsun Du was taken aback, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

"I rejected Han Heng's unreasonable request, and when they were unprepared, I left the Liao team, and then traveled all the way to Xiangping." Bing Yuan began to fool Gongsun Du.

"It's rare for a gentleman to understand righteousness so well! Then Han Heng is a complete liar! Gongsun Du said indignantly.

The detailed work sent to Liaoxi to investigate has sent back the news, when Han Heng passed through Gongsun Zhan's territory, he was a student of Lu Zhi, and the name he used was "Liu Pei", all kinds of signs indicate that Han Heng came to Liaodong this time There is a big problem!

"I'm here this time, in addition to telling the general about this, I also have something to tell."

"Mr. Genju, please speak!"

"I met Liu Zheng behind Han Heng."

"What? There is such a thing! This Han Heng is really a good means, he has only been in Xiangping for a few days, how did he collude with the fugitive Liu Zheng to everything? Gongsun Du was even more surprised.

"I really don't know about this grass man, but I have a few words here to advise the general."

"Please also sir."

"General, you sent people to hunt down and kill Liu Zheng because he posed a threat to your rule. Now that Liu Zheng has fled Liaodong with Han Heng, wouldn't his threat to you be automatically eliminated? ”

Gongsun Du nodded and replied, "So to speak. ”

Bing Yuan also said: "The reason why the general is jealous of Liu Zheng is because he is very cunning. Now that Liu Zheng has left Liaodong, his cunning is useless, so why do you want to detain his family? If he were out there spreading bad news about you, wouldn't it have a big impact on your reputation? I think you might as well pardon Liu Zheng's family, which can not only show your magnanimity, but also not form an indissoluble grudge with Liu Zheng. ”

Gongsun Du frowned and said disdainfully: "Even if he has a mortal enmity with Liu Zheng, what can he do to me?" ”

Bing Yuan reminded Gongsun Du and said: "The general might as well think in the long run, Liu Zheng went to Jicheng this time, and he will definitely listen to Liu Yu's account in the future......"

Gongsun Du was thorough at a point, and knew that Bing Yuan was reminding him that he might not have to care about Liu Zheng, but Liu Yu was different, and he couldn't offend and make enemies.

"Okay, for the sake of Mr. interceding for Liu Zheng's family, Ben Hou will let Liu Zheng's family be released, but they can't continue to stay in Liaodong!"

"This general can rest assured that the grass people will arrange for someone to send them back to Beihai as soon as possible."

After some hard persuasion, the celebrity Bingyuan finally dragged Liu Zheng's family back from the ghost gate.

When Liu Yi rushed back to the Hou Mansion, Gongsun Du just sent Bing Yuan out.

"Mr. Bing stays!" Liu Yi shouted and hurriedly rushed up to stop Bing Yuan. "Mr. Bing, please also hand over the suspects Zhu Min and Han Heng quickly, so as not to hurt your face and anger!"

Bing Yuan turned his head and smiled at Gongsun Du, who was still on the stone steps.

Gongsun Du was so embarrassed at that time, he hurriedly scolded Liu Yi: "Master Liu, Hugh is rude to Mr. Genju!" Let you arrest Zhu Min and Han Heng, how much time has passed, what have you done? Why don't you know that Lu Dao is chasing down the Liaoshui River? Those hateful fellows have already escaped by boat! ”

Liu Yi didn't dare to say anything when he was scolded, and suddenly thought of something, so he said to Gongsun Du: "General Qiyu, although Zhu Min escaped, his father is still buried ten miles outside the city, and some of his clansmen haven't had time to escape!" ”

"Humph! Ben Hou ordered you to immediately take someone to dig up Zhu Min's father's grave, whip his father's bones, and then expose the corpse to the wilderness! Zhu Min's clansmen were all killed! After Gongsun Du gave this order, he glanced at Bing Yuan, and turned around to enter the mansion.

Don't look at Bing Yuan's clever tongue just now, but Gongsun Du suspected that Liu Zheng's matter was related to him, and Gongsun Du's outrageous order was not a warning to Bing Yuan. In addition to warning Bing Yuan, Gongsun Du is also Wang Lie who shrank after warning Zhu Min to escape in disguise!

Liu Yi received the order to kill hundreds of Zhu Min people in one day, and then led the soldiers to dig up his father's body from the ground, insult it wantonly, and then discard it in the wilderness.

When Gongsun Du was in Xiangping City, Han Heng and Xian Yuyin took Tai Shici, Liu Zheng and Zhu Min's family to leave Liaodong smoothly by boat, and they sailed freely between the Bohai Sea, and it took less than ten days to come to the vicinity of the Gushui estuary.

Compared with crossing the Wano Kingdom by boat, merchant ships sailing in the Bohai Bay are not only easy to judge their location with the help of land markings, but also do not have to worry about being attacked by strong winds and waves, so there is not much danger.

At this time, in the Bohai Bay, except for the small fishing boats that fished near the shore, all the larger ships were under the control of Gongsun Du.

In the Three Kingdoms era, if you talk about the strength of the sailors, the Sun clan of Eastern Wu and Liu Biao of Jingzhou cannot be compared with the Gongsun clan of Liaodong, because Gongsun Du played cross-sea landing operations and far-sea transportation trade, while the Sun family father and son and Liu Biao fought in the Yangtze River and the Great Lake, in fact, they were still mainly based on land foot warfare.

There is a distance of more than 90 miles from the mouth of Gushui to Yongnu City, and the speed of the merchant ship going up the Gushui is not as good as walking ashore, so Xian Yuyin paid off the fee to the boatman, let the merchant ship dock in a gentle section of the river, and then took everyone to rush from the land and quickly approached in the direction of Yongnu City. Although this seaside area was under the rule of Yongnu, it was under the control of Gongsun Zhan, and it was very likely that you would encounter patrolling soldiers on the way.

The territory currently occupied by Gongsun Zhan is spread out like a half-grasped left hand, in which Liaoxi County, Right Beiping County, the southern part of Yuyang, the southern part of Guangyang and the eastern part of Zhuo County are located in the first, second, and third sections of the left index finger and the middle of Hukou, respectively, while the newly occupied Jizhou Hejian and Bohai are located in the thumb direction. The empty place in the middle of the half-gripped tiger's mouth is the vast Bohai Sea.

Liu Yu currently occupies the entire territory of Dai County, Shanggu, the northern part of Guangyang County, the area beyond the Great Wall of Yuyang County, and the northwest of Zhuo County, which looks like a human wrist joint from the map.

The team marched less than twenty miles, and sure enough, they encountered a patrol cavalry group of about fifty people, who outflanked them in an arc and blocked the dozens of people in Xian Yuyin's group on the east bank of Gushui.

Xian Yuyin didn't want to do much, so he asked Han Heng to take out the letter of introduction of "Lu Zhi" again, wanting to scare off this small group of cavalry with the identity of Gongsun Zhan's teacher, but this time he ran into big trouble.

The team leader was mainly responsible for patrolling the area in the lower reaches of Yongnu Gushui, and he saw that Xian Yuyin and these people were marching from the downstream to the Lu Expedition, so he was suspicious, and he must detain the team and send it to Quanzhou City, fifteen miles away on the south bank of Gushui, to wait for the arrival of the garrison captain.

The Quanzhou mentioned here is located near Wuqing, Tianjin, not Quanzhou, Fujian, a famous export port city after the Tang and Song dynasties.

Xian Yuyin saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly asked his subordinates to come out with some valuable belongings, and wanted to bribe the team leader, but he refused.

Tai Shici, who was standing beside Xian Yuyin, whispered: "Xian Yudu, the situation is not good, why don't we make a sudden move, kill this cavalry, just take the horses, hurry back to Jicheng!" ”

Xian Yuyin had this intention in his heart, so he nodded quietly, and then made a cooperative look, pretending to be willing to cross the river with the cavalry to Quancheng for interrogation and inspection.

Tai Shi Ci quietly approached the team leader, and when the cavalry began to relax their vigilance when they came to the river, he suddenly drew his halberd from his back and threw it violently, stabbing the team leader off his horse.

Xian Yuyin saw Tai Shi Ci making a move, and immediately shouted: "Kill!" ”

Twenty soldiers dressed as civilians had already been prepared, and after hearing the order, they burst out and attacked the nearest cavalry.

After Tai Shi Ci killed this team leader, he rushed to the horse in three steps and two steps, turned over and jumped on the horse and rushed towards the cavalry who had not had time to react on the periphery, and the short halberd in his hand was waving like a tiger.

After Xian Yuyin killed a cavalryman, he also turned over his horse and rushed in another direction.

All of a sudden, the sound of killing by the Gushui River was everywhere, and a team composed of Ether Shici, Xian Yuyin and twenty soldiers launched a counterattack.

Liu Zheng is also a person with both civil and military skills, seeing this, he immediately organized the rest of the people to gather together, hid behind his own soldiers, and also shouted loudly: "Ziyi be careful, there are a few guys in the north who want to escape!" ”

When Tai Shi Ci was reminded, he immediately drove his horse and galloped, rushing towards the four or five cavalrymen who were about to enter the water.

These patrolling cavalry came from the Gongsun Zhan camp, not as elite as Bai Ma Yicong, so their combat strength was average, they didn't expect the other party to launch a counterattack when the number of young and strong people was less than half of their own, so they couldn't organize an effective counterattack in a hurry, and they could only watch their companions being dragged off their horses one by one.

Some of the cavalrymen who were far away saw that their leaders had been killed, and that Tai Shi Ci had blocked the way to flee west to Quancheng, so they urged their horses to flee to the east.

Liu Zheng shouted to Tai Shi Ci at this time: "Ziyi, there are seven or eight guys who have fled east, you hurry up and chase after them, don't let them escape!" ”

Tai Shi Ci killed the five cavalry close to the river beach in one go, and was about to turn around to help Xian Yuyin, when he heard Liu Zheng's greeting, he immediately turned his horse's head and chased after the seven or eight soldiers who had escaped.

The massacre on this side of the river bank gradually came to an end, and the twenty soldiers under Xian Yuyin's command lost four dead and seven wounded, in exchange for the result that nearly twenty-eight people were killed by the other party, the remaining fourteen were killed by Tai Shi Ci, and eight were chased and killed by Tai Shi Ci.

Xian Yuyin wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, came to Liu Zheng, and said, "Either I will hand over the remaining soldiers to Mr. Liu, and you will be responsible for staying here, and I will help Brother Taishi." ”

Liu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Don't be so troublesome, it won't be long before Ziyi will definitely solve the eight fleeing cavalrymen, and it's too late for you to go now." ”

Seeing that Liu Zhen was so confident, Xian Yuyin no longer insisted, and ordered his subordinates to bandage the wounded soldiers, and at the same time briefly disposed of the bodies of the four dead soldiers and put them on horseback.

After waiting for less than half an hour, I saw Tai Shi Ci riding back safe and sound, with eight war horses behind him, and eight corpses on the horses.

When Xian Yuyin saw this scene, he suddenly remembered the moment when Zhao Yun won in the big school field, and he felt that this Tai Shi Ci was really a little similar to Zhao Yun, belonging to the kind of fierce man who either didn't do it or would kill a river of blood if he started to do it.

"Let's do it together, peel off the coats on these soldiers, put them on their weapons, and throw all these corpses into the water!"

Xian Yuyin gave an order, and everyone took action.

After killing the patrolling cavalry, the road to Yongnu became smooth, because Bai picked up fifty war horses, and the speed of the journey was much faster, and the team arrived at Yongnu in less than two days.

After Xian Yuyin entered the city, he directly found Wang Song, the commander of Yongnu County, and ordered him to immediately prepare a few carriages, as well as a few tables of meals, drinking water and dry food needed on the road, and forage for war horses.

Wang Song didn't ask much, and quickly prepared the materials needed for Xian Yuyin, and then personally sent them to the inn where Xian Yuyin temporarily stayed. After a full meal, everyone left Yongnu overnight.

Two days later, a group of more than 500 cavalry suddenly arrived at Yongnu, rushed into the county government to surround Wang Song, and the captain at the head asked Wang Song: "Have you found a small group of cavalry wearing our army clothes entering the city recently?" ”

Wang Song replied truthfully: "Two days ago, a team of people came, all wearing your military uniforms, coercing the officials to prepare cars and food, and left that night. ”

The lieutenant stationed in Quancheng asked again, "Do you know the whereabouts of these people?" ”

"Out of the West Gate, it seems to be going in the direction of Jixian County."

When the captain heard this, he was furious, so he wanted to lead the team to pursue, but Wang Song persuaded unhurriedly: "Lord Duwei, it has been two days since the group left here, counting the itinerary, and now they are almost in Jixian County, and when the adults lead the army to catch up, they are afraid that they will take people in Jicheng." ”

Wang Song is reminding him that further west, it is Liu Yu's territory, do you really think that with the five hundred soldiers and horses you brought, you dare to go to Jicheng to spread wild?

Du Wei frowned and thought for a moment, silently left Yongnu with five hundred cavalry, and then headed south, as if he was returning to Quanzhou City.

Fifty patrol cavalry were slaughtered, and after their deaths, they were stripped of their clothes and thrown into the water, and the horses were snatched away, and the murderers may have entered Jicheng...... Such a major matter is no longer something that a lieutenant stationed in Quanzhou City can handle, and he must immediately report to Gongsun Zhan, the general of Fenwu who is in Nanpi!
