Chapter 26: Shen Xi Jun
The tenants of the villages gathered outside Qujiabao dispersed in twos and threes, leaving Deng Hai and Chen Gui to lead hundreds of people to occupy Qujiabao.
I believe that it won't be long before the news of the capture of Qujiabao and the rent reduction of the Qu family will spread to every corner of the Sanhu Pavilion like wings.
"Childe, the tenants have already assembled on the school grounds, can we move on to the next step?"
Tian Chou came behind Liu He and asked softly.
"Zitai, this time I want to personally take these tenants to Zhaojiawu Fort, which can be regarded as giving myself more opportunities to try."
Liu He looked at Tian Chou with a sincere face and said quietly.
Qu Lin hurriedly dissuaded and said, "Childe, don't do it!" The son of a daughter, you can't sit down, with your identity, how can you easily set foot in dangerous places! ”
Liu He smiled faintly and said to Qu Lin: "Don't worry, the master of the Qu family, when I leave, not only will I take away a hundred Xiliang infantry, but the more than 200 people brought into the fort by Deng Hai and Chen Gui will also go with me. ”
What Liu He said meant was that the Zhao family and the Jing family would definitely be finished this time, and the factors that threatened the safety of the Qu family would be eliminated, and his departure from Qu Jiawu Fort at this time was not considered a breach of the contract, and the Qu family should be happy to see it succeed.
Tian Chou saw that Qu Lin did not persuade Liu He, so he had no choice but to say: "Childe, I will lead the team this time, if there are any matters that need attention, you can give me orders, and I will take the head of the master to ensure that the task is completed!" ”
"Zitai, you still don't understand what I mean! I am a close minister trusted by the Son of Heaven, and the eldest son of the dignified Youzhou pastor, but I am a weak person who has no power to restrain the chicken, if I don't seize the time to exercise and grow, how will I take on the heavy responsibility of Kuang Fu Sheji in the future? ”
Liu He's words were righteous and awe-inspiring, and he even raised his behavior to the level of Kuang Fu Sheji, and everyone had nothing to say for a while.
Qu Meng, who had been working with Liu He for a few days, suddenly said: "Grandfather, let my grandson go with my son, I am very familiar with the terrain in this area, and I also have some understanding of the internal structure of Zhaojiawu Fort and Jingjiawu Fort, and I should be able to help when the time comes." ”
Qu Lin looked at his beloved grandson with complicated eyes, and finally couldn't resist the persistence in Qu Meng's eyes, nodded and said: "Follow the son and you must do your best, the future of the Qu family will fall on your shoulders!" ”
Deng Hai, who was standing in the corner, couldn't hide his excitement on his face at this time, because he understood the great significance of Liu He's personal action with the villagers this time, that is, they were finally going to be accepted and recognized by Liu He!
Being able to get Liu He's protection, and acting under the banner of Liu's family soldiers in the future, is definitely a big event that can change their fate for these farmers and tenant farmers at the bottom.
"Master, please go to the school yard and say a few words of encouragement to the brothers! Everyone loves to listen to you, even if you scold them, they will be comfortable listening to them! ”
Deng Hai's sycophant shot was very level, not only did his name for Liu He change immediately, but also successfully changed the topic and drew everyone's attention to the follow-up actions.
Even Wang Yue, who was expressionless, laughed when he heard Deng Hai's words. Is there really the kind of person in this world who likes to be scolded?
"Good! This is exactly what I have in mind, so everyone will follow me to the school grounds! Liu He waved his hand and walked out of the dark building in a dashing manner.
Coming to the crowded school field, Liu He looked at the hundreds of tenants in uniform in front of him, and felt a little impassioned in his heart.
"Brothers, do you want to be my Liu He's family soldier?" Liu He asked loudly.
"Yes!" Deng Hai and Chen Gui took the lead in answering.
"It's too quiet, I can't hear it!" Liu He said with a dissatisfied face.
"Do you want to become the envoy of the Son of Heaven and the family soldier of Liu He, the uncle of the Great Han Emperor?" Liu He roared loudly.
"Yes!"
"Yes!!"
"I want to !!"
The emotions of hundreds of people were mobilized, and they shouted at Liu He in unison.
"If you want to become Liu He's family soldier, it's very simple! From today onwards, everything Liu He said will be firmly in my heart! Everything that Liu He confessed must be resolutely implemented! Can you do it? Liu He asked again.
"Yes!"
"Whatever the son says, keep it in mind! Everything that the son confesses must be resolutely implemented! ”
"Good! This envoy now declares: From this day on, you will all belong to my name, and from now on you will become my personal soldiers, sharing weal and woe, living and dying together, and never abandoning you! ”
"Swear to follow Childe to the death! Share weal and woe, live and die together, and never give up! ”
More than two hundred simple croppers were boiling with blood at this time, holding up the weapons in their hands and shouting wildly.
The hundreds of Xiliang infantry standing in a row in a corner of the school field looked at the scene in front of them, and many of them showed envy and yearning. They were thinking in their hearts, why did Liu Gongzi let go of these veterans who had been in a hundred battles and did not win them over, but he wanted to confess his true feelings to a group of mud-legged people with no combat experience?
Liu He seemed to feel the complicated eyes of the Xiliang soldiers, and actually stepped in front of them.
"The Xiliang brothers who followed the envoy from Wuguan, you have worked hard these days!" Liu He's sincerity in what he said made the Xiliang soldiers very useful to listen to.
"Childe is benevolent, we are willing to saddle the horse for Childe!"
Liu He continued: "Brothers from Xiliang, today in front of everyone, I want to say a few heart-wrenching words!" You were originally a private soldier under the command of General Duan Zhongming of Ningji, and this time you were entrusted by General Duan to protect the safety of this envoy, and General Duan did not say that he would transfer you to me, but he also did not say that he wanted you to return to Wuguan after the mission was completed. ”
"The identity and family history of this envoy must be clear to you by now. My father guarded Youzhou, and the 100,000 iron horsemen under his command made Gongsun Zhan, Han Fu, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Du and others dare not move! If it weren't for the fact that I am far away from Youzhou now, and there are no available soldiers around me, why would I be in a desperate situation when the road is small, wandering around and sending people under the eaves? ”
"Now, I will ask you, would you like to follow this envoy and become a soldier under my command from now on? Don't worry, I will write a special letter to General Ning Ji, explaining today's events, and returning him ten times as many soldiers in the future! ”
"If you want to turn to me, stay where you are; If you are only willing to be loyal to General Ning Ji alone, Liu also respects you, will not be embarrassed, and will give you rich property and send you back to Wuguan! ”
After Liu He said these words, he turned around silently and no longer looked at the Xiliang soldiers.
After a while, someone from the Xiliang soldiers slowly walked out of the queue.
"One...... Two ......, eight ......"
Liu He was nervous in his heart, listening to the footsteps behind him, and silently counting the number of Xiliang soldiers who were unwilling to take refuge in him.
In his previous life, as a teacher who was about to walk on the three-foot podium, Liu He's ability to speak in public was still excellent, but in this kind of occasion of hundreds of people, he wanted to convince everyone at once, and this was the first time he had experienced it.
Regardless of how much water was mixed in Liu He's words just now, for example, he said that the tens of thousands of people under Liu Yu's command were 100,000 iron horsemen, and for example, he reversed black and white and said that Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao, Han Fu, and Gongsun Du partnered against Liu Yu to defeat Liu Yu as Liu Yu's side deterred the four forces, just to say that each of the 100 Duan Xuan private soldiers had different backgrounds and ideas, and they would inevitably make different choices either considering their families or considering their way out.
When Liu He silently counted to "twelve", there was no movement behind him.
In other words, among the 100 Xiliang soldiers, 88 finally chose to switch to Liu He!
An indescribable excitement and excitement welled up in Liu He's heart, because this was the first time he had recruited soldiers with just one mouth!
Perhaps, in the future, with the continuous growth of Liu He's strength, there will be tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, or millions of troops under his command, but the eighty-eight Xiliang soldiers and two hundred and sixty-two armed tenants left today are the first pot of gold he started!
Liu He turned around and said to the twelve Xiliang soldiers who had left the team: "I believe that all of you have a reason why you have to return to Wuguan, so I respect your choice!" Come on, send these heroes a return gift! ”
"Thank you for your magnanimity!"
Sanheting was only five days away from Wuguan, and these twelve people traveled in groups and could return soon. It's just that when they go back to report to Duan Xuan, I don't know how Duan Xuan will feel?
After the twelve Xiliang soldiers who chose to leave were taken out of the school field by Tian Chou, Liu He quickly climbed to the tower in the center of the school field, and then said loudly to the following: "Hundreds of years ago, there was a Baisheng division of the Chu State stationed in the area of Sanhu Pavilion, called 'Shen Xi'!" Now, I have named you the 'Shenxi Army', and I hope that you will be like the Shenxi army hundreds of years ago, and you will win all battles and conquer everything! ”
"The Shenxi army listened to the order, and the whole army followed me out of the fort to meet the private soldiers of the Zhao family and the Jing family!"
Liu He gave an order, and eighty-eight Xiliang infantry and two hundred and sixty temporarily armed tenant farmers took up their weapons and walked towards the outside of the fort with neat steps.
On the top of the fort gate, Qu Lin looked at the back of Liu He leading the team away, and muttered to himself: "Liu Gongzi's heart is really higher than the sky!" At the beginning, the division of Shen Xi, the hundred-battle powerhouse of the Great Chu State, was actually used by him to name his private soldiers, how should my Qu family's private soldiers deal with themselves in the future? Could it be true that under the banner of 'Qu Jiajun'? ”
"Father, since these people have become Liu Gongzi's personal soldiers, they will naturally be taken away by him in the future, why should you bother about this?" Qu Xing asked with some puzzlement.
Qu Lin shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Hehe, you didn't see Liu Gongzi's intentions clearly. These people will not go with him, after the Zhao family and the Jing family are eradicated this time, these soldiers will definitely stay in those two dock forts and become a stronghold for Liu Gongzi to stay in Nanyang. ”
"Then what will our Qu family do in the future?"
"What to do? To be honest, I don't know what to do! In this world, we can only take one step and see one step. Who can have the last laugh? Only God knows! ”
