Chapter 25 A Country General
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng were one of the "Five Tiger Generals" of the later Shu Han Dynasty - although this title is a romance, but Zhi Shangguan, Zhang, Ma, Huang, and Zhao are tied for a biography, regardless of their name or merit, they can be antagonized.
Huang Zhong was originally a Jingzhou general, this is a personal know; Liu Biao once ordered him to be the general of Zhonglang, which belonged to his nephew Liu Pan, which is clearly recorded in history. Zhonglang General originally belonged to Guangluxun, a military general of the emperor's guard, and the various separatist forces in the late Han Dynasty also signed themselves as Zhonglang Generals, and their names were between generals and school captains - for example, Tao Qian had signed Xu Tan as Zhonglang General.
Therefore, Huang Zhong of the Zhonglang General era is really Liu Biao's subordinate. Shi Xun had heard before that Liu Biao sent Liu Pan to garrison Jiangling - not as the history books say, to garrison Changsha County and Youxian, that must be a matter of the future, Liu Biao's power has not been able to extend into Changsha this year, and there is no need to send heavy troops to the southeast of Changsha in case of Eastern Wu - since Huang Zhong is Liu Pan's general, he must have come from Jiangling.
Shi Xun was taken aback, and with a slight turn in his head, he understood the cause and effect, and couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Could it be providence?" "Zhang Xianbing Yiyang, anyone with a little brain can guess that he wants to enter Wuling County, and it is likely to refer to Xiaoling County - of course, Liu Rui's kind of goods that do not understand military affairs at all may not be able to guess - Liu Biao also has spies in Changsha, and when the news is reported back, he must first seek countermeasures.
If Xun hadn't been sick for several days, he would lobby Liu Rui as soon as he arrived in Linyuan, and then summon the Changsha army to march westward, then neither Liu Biao nor Liu Pan would have time to send troops to prevent it. It's a pity that Xun's illness delayed time. Because of the constraints of distance, Xiangyang Liu Biao may have just gotten the news. There was no way to deal with it, but Jiangling Liu Pan had time to send Huang Zhong out first.
Huang Zhong came, did he come to say that Pan Jun refused Zhang, or did he directly bring troops over to prevent blockage? In fact, it is also easy to guess: if it is a messenger, why should the armor be distinct? It must have been a soldier. I don't know if he attacked Xiaoling City, or did Pan Jun take the initiative to open the city gate and let him in?
When he first heard that Huang Zhong had signed up, Shixun almost wanted to turn around and run away in a hurry. Fortunately, the serious illness has been cured, the head is not dizzy, and the reason tells him: What's the use of you running? As soon as Huang Zhong stretched out his arm, he could sneak you back like a chicken, and when the time came, not only could he not escape, but he also completely lost face, why bother? Anyway, I had to talk to him for a few words first, and then swaggered out. Then Huang Zhong wants to arrest you again, it is because he is rude, not because you are not guts.
At the moment, he forced himself to calm down and smiled slightly: "It turned out to be General Huang, I don't know when I arrived in Xiaoling?" Huang Zhong couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw him behaving like this. Then he hugged his fists and said: "Don't dare, the last general entered the city yesterday, only one day earlier than Shizhong." ”
Shi Xun nodded: "I see, it's not just ......" suddenly turned his face and raised his eyebrows. He shouted and asked: "I am not the first to arrive, how dare I come to see me in armor?" Thou shalt rebel. Kill angels?! ”
Huang Zhong was shocked and hurriedly refuted: "The last general will not dare to ......"
In fact, he didn't dare to do anything, he had premeditated it at all - although he didn't really want to kill Shixun. On the same day, Zhang Xian's soldiers were stationed in Yiyang for a few days (waiting for Shixun to recover from illness) The news reached Jiangling, and Liu Pan convened the generals to discuss, and the strategist Jin Xuan pointed out sharply: "I want to go north to Xiaoling to attack me." "Liu Pan said that the first to control the people, and then to be controlled by the people, then it is better for me to send a soldier over to help guard the tomb, and then inform my uncle of the news, and ask him to decide-"Who is willing to go?" ”
Huang Zhong immediately stood up and asked for an order, saying that I had several encounters with Pan Jun, the chief of Xiaoling, and was willing to lead the army there. Liu Pan was overjoyed, and immediately ordered Huang Zhong to command his headquarters to go south. When Huang Zhong arrived in Xiaoling, at this time, Pan Jun had already received the official letter sent by Jing Huanxiao, and was suspicious, and when he heard the news, he hurriedly sent someone to ask Huang Zhong, what is the purpose of you bringing soldiers over?
Huang Zhong said that I heard that the Changsha soldiers were coming to seize the tomb, so I rushed to help defend it on the order of General Liu, if you let me into the city, I will consolidate the city defense, recuperate the troops, and wait for Zhang Xian to come and defeat it in one fell swoop. If you don't let me into the city, then I will be forced to use force, I will kill one first, Zhang Xian will kill another one when he comes, not to mention the fate of your brother, how will the people of Xiaoling suffer? "Zhijun loves the people like a son, but in this troubled era, such as Zheng and Song Zhi in Jin and Chu. Our army arrived first, so you should attach yourself to me, please think about it. ”
If this is to be changed to Xun, he can use a simpler idiom - "Chao Qin and Twilight Chu", your small Xiaoling County has no possibility of independence at all, so you have to rely on whichever side sends troops to come, and the surrounding big forces are first-come, first-served. It's a pity that there is no such idiom in these years, although it is said that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the idiom did not appear until the Song Dynasty.
Huang Zhong threatened like this, and Pan Jun was intimidated, so he had to open the city gate and let Huang Zhong and Jingzhou soldiers in. Huang Hansheng came in and asked, what, Linyuan has an official letter coming over, asking Xiaoling to welcome the Changsha soldiers? Then don't ask, Liu Rui also got on Zhang Xian's thief ship! Hurriedly consolidated the city defense, and at the same time sent someone to report to Liu Pan that if the joint troops of the four counties of Jingnan came, I couldn't hold it, so you had to send reinforcements quickly.
As a result, early this morning, the messenger of Shixun also arrived, saying that the lord of the servant had come in person and asked the county magistrate to go out of the city to greet him. Pan Jun went to discuss with Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong said that he was in the middle of the service, I have heard that he came to Jingzhou in the past to sweep the face of the state pastor, and it seems that he recently went to Wancheng to support Zhang Xiu. Don't ask, inciting Zhang Xian to rebel and persuading Liu Rui to follow, that must be the credit of his sharp mouth. In this way, you will pretend that nothing has happened, go and take him into the city, and I will wait in the county office in my armor and scare him, and I will scare him away.
So as soon as he signed up just now, if Shixun turned around and fled, Huang Hansheng would definitely not chase after him - the purpose was to scare you away. But who would have thought that Shi Xun not only did not run away, but asked Huang Zhong, since you didn't just arrive, you have time to take off your armor and change into official clothes, why do you dare to come to see me like this? Are you trying to rebel?!
Huang Zhongxin said no wonder, this is the servant who dares to go to Jingzhou alone to fan the flames, and he is not only talented, has a good mouth, but also has courage. It is said that although Liu Biao secretly colluded with Yuan Shao, after all, he has not officially raised troops to echo - even if he responds with troops, the enemy is Cao Cao, not the imperial court - nominally speaking, Xun and Huang Zhong are still considered to be a country. The generals and ministers of a country are different from top to bottom, and the difference in name is 108,000 miles, Huang Zhong is not too late to take off his armor when he first arrives in Xiaoling, nor does he dare to take off his armor when there is a war, so he should wear official clothes to meet Shi Xun. This should be in peacetime, and the dignified servants can reprimand him for being rude in person, drink the order and take it down, and then write Liu Biao: Your subordinates are so disrespectful, you can give an explanation, should I clean it up directly, or will I hand it over to you to deal with?
Of course, this time is different from the past, even if Shi Xun is a court official, he can't take the princes' subordinates lightly. But although he didn't dare to take any measures, his mouth was even more arrogant, first ask Huang Zhong Do you want to rebel? Ask Huang Zhong again, are you planning to kidnap or kill the angel?!
If he is horizontal, Huang Zhong will inevitably be soft - after all, Huang Hansheng is disciplined, unlike the old Changsha who guards Sun Jian too much, or Zhen Rong, who does not know life and death, completely looks like a martial artist in troubled times, and does not take the traditional order in his eyes at all. Huang Zhong had no choice but to push the golden mountain, pour the jade pillar, and kneel down on one knee: "The last general didn't dare, he suddenly heard that the servant was coming, and he didn't have time to remove his armor for a while, and the servant forgave his sins." ”
Seeing that Huang Zhong softened, Shi Xun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and put down a heart that was hanging high - it seems that this guy wouldn't dare to kidnap or murder me. So he ignored Huang Zhong, but turned his head and asked Pan Jun: "Is it Chengming inviting General Huang to come, or General Huang coming himself?" How many horses are there? ”
Pan Jun glanced at Huang Zhong, and said in his heart, Didn't you claim to be able to scare away this waiter, why did you coax yourself first? You have soldiers and horses to support you, and you are not afraid that he will clean it up, I can't do it, if this is sprinkled on my head, how can I afford my little arms and legs? Hansheng, Hansheng, hurt me not shallowly! Hurriedly bowed down and replied to Shi Xun: "It is not a small official to summon him, but General Huang has come from him, and there are more than 1,000 subordinates, and he entered the city yesterday." ”
Shi Xun originally planned to casually talk to Pan Jun for a few words, and then swaggered out, and after meeting his own subordinates, he quickly withdrew from the city. But this time, what is it, Huang Zhong brought more than 1,000 people...... This more than 1,000 soldiers is said to be a lot less, if you really want to resist the city and defend it, Zhang Xian may not be able to take it in a short time, but it is not too much, he has more than 300 elite troops, and it is not difficult to save his life.
Immediately, I felt that I was thinking about it, because I didn't know what the quality of Huang Zhong's more than 1,000 soldiers was, all of them were Huang Hansheng's troops, and the famous generals had sharp pawns, and the three hundred or so people under his hands could be trampled on in an instant. But Huang Zhong's reputation is not high, so Shi Xun estimates that he will not have many troops, and most of these more than 1,000 are ordinary Jingzhou soldiers under the command of Pa Li - can they fight or not? Will you run away or stay?
If he escapes at this time, traveling a hundred and a half miles and ninety-nine, all the previous plans, and playing tricks with Changsha and Wuling, it will be completely ruined. At the moment, I was worried and unwilling, I couldn't help but think of a way that was not the way, and turned to look at Huang Zhong: "I want to inspect your department, but what?" ”
Huang Zhong was stunned when he heard this-you want to review my soldiers and horses, which one is this play? He knew that Shixun was not only an important minister of the court, but also had the title of an angel - although he was not ordered to go out to patrol the mausoleum - so he could not find fault with the procedure when he went to the place to ask for a review of the army. Huang Hansheng can fight habitually, but his background is not high, and he doesn't know anything about officialdom, so he couldn't find any excuse to refuse for a while, so he hesitated for a while, and had to nod: "Dare to obey your fate?" ”
It's Xun Xin who said okay, then I'll see how your soldiers are first, and then make plans.
