Chapter 105 [Downstairs at the White Gate]
"Ahh Before Li Li's words fell, an exclamation came from behind him. But seeing that Huan Fei, Xu Chu, Qubei, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun and Lei Bo and other generals exclaimed one after another, they looked at Li Li in disbelief with an incredible expression.
What were the official positions of Han Xian and Yang Feng before their deaths?
Han Xian and his people, when Liu Xie fled from Chang'an, rescued the driver, and then escorted the Han Emperor Liu Xie and the hundred officials to return to Luoyang along the way, and was appointed as a general for his merits, and the commander was subordinate to the school.
Yang Feng and Han Xian were all the way, and they also escorted Liu Xie and the hundred officials to escape from Chang'an, return to Luoyang, and be appointed as a general of the chariot and cavalry for their merits.
The reason why the two of them only had official positions and no titles was because Liu Xie and the hundred officials were hungry and cold when they returned to Luoyang, and they could not give them physical rewards, so they did not dare to mention the titles. After all, when the kings of the past dynasties gave them titles, they had corresponding financial rewards, and Liu Xie, who was on the run, could only make a wish to them to be crowned officials, and did not hesitate to entitle them to the great official position of the third duke, but never mentioned other rewards.
It was precisely because the official positions of Han Xian and Yang Feng were too high that after they sent Liu Xiehe and the hundred officials to Luoyang, the princes from all walks of life who came to take over couldn't tolerate them at all, as if they didn't take the two of them seriously. So in the melee of Wancheng, they had to lead their troops to leave Liu Xie and defect to Yuan Shu instead.
Therefore, although Han Xian and Yang Feng have official positions comparable to those of the three dukes, they have always been in name only, and they are not recognized by the princes of all parties at all.
Unexpectedly, they were already dead at this moment, but because of Li Li's words, they confirmed their official positions, and they actually enjoyed the lofty treatment of the third duke, and they were buried in the glory of the prince after their deaths. can also seal the shadow of the wife, and his heirs will enjoy glory and wealth.
Because of this, Huan Fei, Xu Chu and other generals exclaimed in unison. Shocking.
Not only these generals, but even Guo Jia and Jia Xu were shocked when they heard this. If they hadn't seen this remark coming from Li Li's mouth with their own eyes, they would have thought that this was someone joking, and this joke was too big, completely out of bounds, and they couldn't do anything about it.
"This γγγ lord. I'm afraid that something is wrong with this. Guo Jia, who was ordered to deal with the aftermath of Han Xian and Yang Feng, although he knew that Han Xian and Yang Feng had always acted under orders and had repeatedly performed miraculous feats. But he still couldn't follow Li Li's orders.
In fact, Guo Jia has been responsible for conveying orders to Han Xian and Yang Feng over the years, and secretly directing them to go down step by step according to the predetermined plan, until today. Other words. Guo Jia is the direct boss of Han and Yang.
This is also the direct reason why Guo Jia followed Li Li to Xuzhou when he first recovered from his arrow injury. As a matter of fact. Jia Xu was the military advisor who went to Xuzhou this time, and Guo Jia came to receive the soldiers and horses under the accounts of Han Xian and Yang Feng, and celebrated their achievements.
Li Li's expression changed slightly when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Guo Jia, and asked, "What's wrong, Feng Xiao might as well speak up?" β
Guo Jiagong said: "General Han Xian used to worship the general before his death, and the commander was subordinate to the captain, if he did this, it would be contrary to the lord and the official. This is a taboo move, and Weichen will not dare to do it. And General Yang Feng's official position is the same as that of General Li Dao, the assassin of Yongzhou. It is also a taboo thing, and it is not to be done. It's ?????? Weichen thought that although the two generals Han and Yang were indispensable, they were not enough to be compared with General Li Dao, so they could not be buried according to the rites of the Three Princes. Otherwise, the case will inevitably get out of control in the future, which will lead to unnecessary disputes or confusion. Therefore, Weichen Jian compromised to handle this matter, and gave Han and Yang the two officials comparable to Jiuqing, and treated their families well. I don't know what happens under the Lord's will? β
Li Li was silent for a moment, and muttered thoughtfully: "Under Fang today, there are not a few people who are higher than the three dukes, and there are also those who are above the three dukes, and the famous Lu Wenhou in the city in front of him is also a mighty general with the three dukes. And this qiΔ is only because there is no owner in the world, but all the princes who have some strength or the prefectures and counties (Jiaozhou) in remote states and counties have been divided and self-reliant, which is equivalent to the princes and vassal kings, and these people have long ignored the Han etiquette system, unscrupulous, and reckless.
On the occasion of the collapse of the law and discipline of the program, Lone is the general of the world's soldiers and horses personally taught by the Son of Heaven, the prime minister, and the general military and political affairs, and he must not ignore the rules of etiquette and law. Therefore, although the official positions held by Han Xian and Yang Feng before their lives were in name only, they were given by the Son of Heaven, so how can they be taken lightly? It is the posthumous affairs of the two of them that they will be buried according to their official positions before their deaths, and the bereavement benefits due to their family members shall be paid in full, and no one shall alter or deduct them without authorization. β
Guo Jia felt bitter in his heart after hearing this, and his face was full of embarrassment, but he saw that Li Li's expression was calm, and he was not moved at all, as if he did not plan to take back his fate. Suddenly, Guo Jia turned his head to look at the generals behind him, and then looked at Jia Xu with a pleading gaze, hoping that he would come forward to say something.
Jia Xu immediately nodded in understanding, and said respectfully: "The official positions of the two generals Han and Yang are really fictitious, and the two of them have no comparable achievements and merits in their lives, how are they qualified to be as famous as the lord and General Li Dao?" What's more, if he is buried according to his official position, it may damage the reputation of the lord, even if the lord does not mind this, then what does General Li Dao think after learning about this? Yes, Weichen agreed with what Feng Xiao said, Jiuqing's gift is enough, and I implore the lord to think twice. β
"Is it a lonely life to stop at the position of a general?" Without waiting for Jia Xu's words to fall, Li Li frowned and blurted out something that everyone never expected.
"That's it, you don't need to say more." After dropping these words in an undeniable tone, Li Li lightly lifted the reins and drove the Golden Lion Beast King to turn around and walk slowly.
Seeing this, Guo Jia and Jia Xu didn't say anything more, and immediately rode their horses to follow. Jia Xu said respectfully: "How to decide the battle in front of you, please make it public." β
Li Li drove the Golden Lion Beast King to paced forward, and said in a deep voice: "The Xiapi war is entrusted to Fengxiao with full responsibility, Wen He will return to Pengcheng with me, and together with Gongtai, he will capture the counties of Xuzhou, and be responsible for the aftermath and pacification. β
After hearing this, Jia Xu nodded happily, and immediately rode back to the front of the battle, and sent generals such as Qubei, Kebineng and Xu Huang to accompany him, and took away the Shuofeng battalion war horse. The generals such as Huan Fei, Xu Chu, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun and Lei Bo, as well as more than 20,000 infantry troops, stayed at the south gate to continue the siege and wait for Guo Jia's dispatch.
Just when Jia Xu was deploying troops and horses, Guo Jiaze followed Li Li and said softly: "Our army can capture the south gate at any time, and Lu Bu will be captured and killed at that time, I don't know if the lord has any orders for this?" "Actually, Guo Jia just wants to say, how to deal with Lu Bu after the capture of the South Gate, to kill or not to kill.
Li Li stopped when he heard this, looked at Guo Jia with deep eyes, and asked rhetorically, "I don't know what Fengxiao thinks about this?" It doesn't hurt to be outspoken, and there is no need to scruple. β
"No." Guo Jia shook his hand with a stern expression, and said respectfully: "Since the lord asks, Weichen should speak uprightly. Since Dong Zhuo led his troops into Luoyang, until now, Lu Bu first killed his father-in-law Ding Yuan, and then stabbed his father-in-law Dong Zhuo again, and then abandoned Situ Wang Yun in disregard, resulting in Wang Yun's death; Then LΓΌ Bu lived in Yanzhou but seized Cao Cao's Yanzhou foundation, and occupied the magpie's nest by taking advantage of Xuzhou.
Looking at what Lu Buzhi did, Weichen has to say that his people are greedy like jackals, vicious like snakes and scorpions, unruly, profit-seeking and disaster-avoiding, and capricious. Therefore, Weichen thinks that Lu Buqi must not stay, and he should show his head to the public to reassure people's hearts! When he said this, Guo Jia's expression was cold, his eyes were firm, and he had obviously made a decision, until Li Li opened his mouth to ask at this moment, and he spit out without concealment.
Li Li bowed his head lightly and said, "What Feng Xiao said is not unreasonable, and I also have this intention." In fact, it's not just you and me, there are not a few people who want to see Lu Bu ambush him, Jizhou Cao Cao is one of them, and the princes such as Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou and Sun Ce in Jiangdong are probably also happy to see it. So?????? That's it, how to make a decision is decided by Fengxiao. Li Li wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end he didn't say much, and completely handed over the Xiapi war to Guo Jia.
However, at the moment when Li Li lifted the reins and left, Lu Lingqi, who had been following him without saying a word, suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes and looked at him with teary eyes.
"Alas, it is still against heaven to do evil, and you cannot live for your own evil!" The moment the corner of his clothes was pulled, Li Li didn't look back, just sighed softly. Immediately, he turned sideways to look at Guo Jia, who deliberately turned his head and pretended not to see this scene, stretched out his hand and patted Guo Jia on the shoulder twice, and then waved his hand to signal Lu Lingqi to let go, and then drove the Golden Lion Beast King to gallop and go.
As soon as Li Li left, Guo Jia didn't stop for a moment, and immediately hit his horse and returned to the front of the battle, but he was afraid that Lu Lingqi would beg hard, but he was speechless.
?????? In the early morning of the fourth day of the siege of Baimenlou, the city gate was wide open, and thousands of wolf cavalry soldiers who had resisted stubbornly before went out of the city empty-handed to welcome Guo Jia's army into the city.
Standing at the forefront of the Kaesong surrender procession were Chen Qi, Chen Deng's father and son, and Wei Xu, the commander of the wolf cavalry, as well as dozens of Xuzhou generals.
After Guo Jia led the army into Nancheng and collected all the weapons and ordnance, he saw more than a dozen Xiliang soldiers stumbling in front of Guo Jia with Lu Bu tied up with five flowers, waiting for the fate.
"In front of the military advisor, you dare not kneel!"
When Lu Bu, who was covered with dirt and only wearing brocade silk underwear, was pushed by the armor to Guo Jia, who stopped at Lerma, he saw that he was glaring at Guo Jia with an angry face, and he did not kneel down despite the push of the armor behind him. Suddenly, more than a dozen tiger warriors who escorted him to him couldn't help but hold down Lu Bu's shoulder, raised his foot and kicked him violently in the crook of his leg, causing Lu Bu to be in pain, staggered forward a few steps, and then his knee hurt and he fell to the ground.
"You can't be presumptuous!" At the moment when Lu Bu was kicked to his knees by the armor soldiers, Guo Jia turned over and dismounted, avoiding Lu Bu's kneeling head-on, and immediately shouted at the armor soldiers to stop, and waved them to retreat??????
