Chapter 70: Capture and release what is true in it
Liu Wei thought to himself that this He Yi was really exquisite, no wonder after the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising, he was still thriving in Yingchuan and Runan.
"Hmph, we didn't fail, why do you need to be like this, Huang Shao brothers still have tens of thousands of soldiers, don't be complacent too early, when Huang Shuai breaks the city, you will die without a place to be buried." The other Yellow Turban general scolded angrily.
Liu Wei and He Yi were stunned for a moment, He Man reacted the fastest, and quickly covered the man's mouth to prevent him from making a sound, but Liu Wei laughed.
"Interesting, what's this person's name?"
He Yi immediately said: "Back to the general's words, his name is Liu Pi, he is our little boss here, and he can't be counted." ”
"Liu Bi." Liu Wei thought for a while, and said to the attendant behind him: "Pull him out and serve him severely, see if he can still be so tough!" ”
"Don't push, go by yourself." Liu Bi slammed the soldier away with his shoulder and walked out of the prison door with his head held high.
When He Yi saw this situation, he and He Man rushed forward and begged bitterly, hoping that Liu Wei would spare their lives.
"You're a smart man!" After Liu Wei praised He Yi for a few words, he waved his hand, and the group of hands stepped forward and dragged He Yi to the secret room next to him......
……
Huang Shao didn't receive He Yi's signal for a long time, and walked around the tent anxiously, the bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger, and at this moment, there was a distant shout in his ears.
"Report ...... Huang Shuai, no, He Shuai's sneak attack on Suojube City was seen through, and now it has fallen into the city, presumably there must be more than auspicious, the enemy army has opened the city gate, and the general has been killed!
"What can I do? What to do! Huang Shao's heart was cold, now there are tens of thousands of women and children in his hands, and he can barely use it to carry grain and grass, and he is afraid that he will scatter in a hurry if he goes into battle to kill the enemy.
When he walked out of the tent, he saw that his camp was on fire, and he was about to send someone to save him, but he saw that the east, west, north, south, and middle were all on fire, and the rockets in the air were like meteors, with a long light and shadow, constantly falling into the camp.
Huang Shao panicked, and heard the sound of dense war drums on the left and right, and a guard led the horse over.
"Huang Shuai, the matter is urgent, the enemy has arrived, please Huang Shuai quickly get on his horse and leave with his brothers."
Looking at the camp tent that was chaotic into a pot of porridge, Huang Shao sighed, turned on his horse, and fled with a group of henchmen......
"Haha, the Yellow Turban Army is menacing, I thought they had three heads and six arms."
"Such an army, another 100,000, is not our opponent."
Xu Rong listened to the discussion of his subordinates, and when he saw the Yellow Turban Army fleeing in a hurry in the night, he couldn't help but shake his head and beckoned to call a team leader.
"Tell the soldiers that they don't have to chase after them, just clear the remnants of the enemy in the village, and then put out the fire to see if they can gain some results."
……
When the day dawned, the sour jujube city continued to laugh joyfully like a baby who had woken up, as if nothing had happened.
Huang Shao's men and horses fled, and Xu Rong sent a team of soldiers to continue to monitor the enemy's situation, and returned to the city with the pitiful booty.
After receiving the order of the main post-war summary meeting, a group of subordinates happily gathered in the hall to discuss the military situation with each other, and everyone's face was full of joy after victory.
"Lord, you are too troubled! How do you know they're going to sneak up on them at night? ”
Lu Yin followed behind Liu Wei, like a happy Bailing, and kept asking questions.
Walking into the lobby, Liu Wei asked everyone to sit down, and then he spoke.
"As a general, you must be familiar with the hearts of the people, tens of thousands of people from the Yellow Turban Army came from afar, it was laborious and troublesome, how could you be willing not to see food?"
Lu Zhi slapped his palms, "The lord doesn't chase and kill during the day, he just wants to lure the enemy to steal the city, and then use a trick to capture him." ”
"Yes, as soon as the battle is engaged, the enemy retreats and does not fight to the death, which shows that they know that they will not be able to defeat us by fighting hard, so they will use a plan, and the peak will plan and return to the city with a laugh with the mountain king, giving them a relaxed and arrogant illusion."
Dian Wei scratched his head, "Lord, I didn't think too much about it at that time. ”
The words made laughter resound in the hall, and Xu Rong also clenched his fists and said: "He Yi can rise in Yingchuan and Runan, and grow, naturally he has some ability, thinking that the lord will relax his vigilance after victory, and he can succeed in sneaking up on the night." ”
Liu Wei's eyes swept over the generals, "Our future battles must focus on destroying the enemy, melee and pursuit battles cannot be effective, and a large number of enemies are killed, Wu Anjun in the Warring States Period is the killing god of the war of annihilation, only the war of annihilation can weaken the opponent to the greatest extent!" ”
Lu Zhi nodded, "If we pursue during the day, the results will be limited, once we leave here, the Yellow Turban Army will make a comeback, and now capture their leader, and all these hidden dangers will be eliminated, the lord is really a last resort!" ”
Seeing everyone bowing to the ground, Liu Wei secretly said in his heart: "I am just standing on the shoulders of giants, so I can see higher and farther." ”
After letting his subordinates get up, Liu Wei stepped down the hall, walked in front of Lu Zhi, and slowly said a word.
"These Yellow Turban Army, Feng is not ready to wipe them all out in order to prevent future troubles."
Hearing Liu Wei's words, even Lu Zhi showed surprise on his face.
"Old general, the peak has released them all."
"Lord ......"
Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded, even Dian Wei's mouth was wide open.
"All of them? So aren't we working hard in vain? ”
Looking at everyone's eyes, Liu Wei sighed, and then opened his mouth to tell the reason.
These Yellow Turban Army are all their own people, they are all Han people, and as a last resort, Liu Wei doesn't want to fight in the same room, so why bother with each other.
At this time, Cao Cao's power was still extremely weak, compared to Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shu, it was a world of difference, why was he able to coerce the Son of Heaven and order the princes a few years later?
Talent is one thing, and another key link is that he lured down nearly one million Yellow Turban Army, and recruited 300,000 strong men to form the Qingzhou Army.
Since then, this Qingzhou army has become Cao Cao's trump card army, and under the training of Yu Ban, Cao Chun and others, it has become a strong army in the world.
Even if the Yellow Turban Army can be lured to surrender by Cao Agui, then Liu Wei can naturally do it too.
It is better to kill than to collect, which is the same as the principle of flood control, it is better to block than to sparse.
Now that he has no land, no food and grass, and no fame, even if he can recruit these tens of thousands of yellow scarves, it will be a great burden on his logistics.
Liu Wei's development strategy is to streamline the administration of the army, rather than recruiting hundreds of thousands of troops at once, and using the momentum of throwing whips to break the flow to sweep Liuhe and determine the eight wildernesses.
The Yellow Turban Army believed in the "Zhonghuang Taiyi Dao", only respecting the emperor and Lao Tzu, not other gods, and forbidding the destruction of other gods and ghosts.
He is an upright emperor, so Liu Wei is sure that he will lure them down in the future, and letting them go back now also leaves room for negotiations, which will be easier to negotiate in the future.
