Chapter 23, slaughter the Huns

Shi Xun and Sima Yi's speculation is infinitely close to the truth, but speculation is speculation after all, and in the absence of more corroboration, any accusation of Qubei and Hu Chuquan can only be groundless deduction - what if those two people admit that they are stupid? To admit that he didn't send troops to save his head for a while? What can you do?

Think about the whole thing again from beginning to end and get it in context. If the Southern Xiongnu had completely colluded with Gao Gan, then taking advantage of the opportunity of Cao Xing, Xiahoulan and others outside, they would go to Beida and lead a large army to capture Shixun, and there was no need to send Pan Liuxi over, so this possibility is not great. If Pan Liuxi acted recklessly, went to Bei and Hu Chuquan without knowing in advance, and just wanted Pan Liuxi to scare Shixun, then ......

Or go to humility, or call the kitchen spring, you must come over to clean up the situation. It is unlikely that he will go to Bei, if he leads the army to follow Pan Liuxi, waiting for the opportunity to jump out of the fake model to solve the fight for the two families, then he must have detected the news of Pan Liuxi's meeting with Guo Yi, and it is impossible not to show up at this time. Then, there is only one possibility left in the end: Hu Chuquan will soon come from Pingyang.

So Sima Yi wants to say: "Let's see when Shan will come to save ......"

At the moment before the county office was besieged, Shixun sent messengers for help to Pingyang and Mianshangju respectively, and if the army marched in a hurry, the soldiers and horses of both roads would have to arrive at dusk tomorrow. It is not impossible for Shi Xun to resist 2,000 enemy troops with the high walls of the government office, and it is not impossible to carry it until tomorrow night—although the probability is very low—but if he only faces Pan Liuxi's 400 cavalry, he may not be willing to hold on, and the victory or defeat is likely to be decided in an instant. Hu Chuquan really waited for tomorrow to come. The daylilies are cold.

So it's very likely. Hu Chuquan is not in Pingyang at all, but in Yang County, northeast of Pingyang, it is even closer, so that he can rush to the battlefield in the fierce battle of Yong'an. Sima Yi therefore said, if he came only tomorrow, it would mean that Pan Liuxi's rebellion had nothing to do with him at all, at most we would pull the clues to the head of the desperation; If you come today, you don't have to ask. He is the one behind the scenes!

So Shi Xun sent Jing Huanxiao to greet Hu Chuquan - if Jing Huanxiao accidentally showed his feet and ruined his plan, he just took the opportunity to remove him from his position as the head of the tun, if he was slaughtered by Hu Chuquan, it would be quite appropriate. However, Jing Xiaoxiao's luck was really good, he passed the test smoothly, and sent his companions back to report: Shan Yu is here, and there are only six or seven hundred horsemen in the department.

Yes Xun is packing up his things here and is about to run away and go north to Xiahou Lan's army, what do you hear? Hu Chuquan only brought six or seven hundred people? So what else am I afraid of? Guo Yi's two thousand horsemen have been trampled by me! So he pretended to be seriously injured and couldn't afford it. lured Hu Chuquan into the county office, and immediately took it down.

He sneered in the inner hall: "Shan Yu came so quickly. Yi Xun expected that he had been waiting for news in Yang County for a long time, right? "Hu Chuquan understands, it's over, the plan is revealed! He was worried that Shi Xun was seriously injured and died, so he hurriedly came in to visit, and the government office was full of wounded soldiers of the Cao family, full of Teng, and more people couldn't squeeze in, so he was followed by a few guards, but at this time, there was nowhere to escape, and it was too late to resist.

What should I do? Hu Chuquan is worthy of being a Hun Shan Yu, and he shouted at the moment, intending to defend and attack: "It's too defending, how can you break your promise and transfer troops into the city?!" ”

"Click", the door opened, Shi Xun with his hands behind his back, Shi Shiran paced out the door, and looked at Chu Quan: "Shan Yu, the matter has come to this, why bother to be pretentious?" As he spoke, he turned his head slightly, and immediately a subordinate brought a wooden plate with Pan Liuxi's head placed on it.

Hu Chuquan couldn't help but take half a step back, frightened and frightened. I heard Shi Xun say coldly: "Pan Liuxi was captured by me and has confessed." Thou hast colluded with the state to plot my life. I'll kill him! ”

"Never!" Hu Chuquan shouted, "I just sent Pan Liuxi to scare Taishou, it was Pan Liuxi who secretly colluded with the state!" ”

And so it was. Shixun couldn't help but smile slightly, turned around, and turned back into the hall.

As soon as Hu Chuquan spoke, he knew that the Tao was wrong - isn't this a self-confession? Forget it, it doesn't matter, since it has fallen into the hands of Shixun, what tricks do you still use, since he set this trap, then the causes and consequences must have been calculated clearly. At that moment, he couldn't help but glance at the cold shining blade on his shoulder, and let out a long sigh: "Why do you want to kill me?" ”

Shi Xun walked back to the hall, sat down on the bookcase, four feet away from Hu Chuquan, and said expressionlessly, "Why should I kill you?" That is, to bind the city of Ru, when waiting to go to the lowly, drink and order it to surrender, and then scatter the Huns, and kill them one by one, isn't it also clean? ”

Hu Chuquan stared at Shi Xun's eyes, the hall was dim, and the two pupils looked blurry, as if there was a flickering cold light. Hearing his voice and seeing his person, Shan Yu felt a cold air from the soles of his feet to his limbs, and instantly reached the top door, and couldn't help but pounce forward, but he was held down by two family members and fell directly at the door of the lobby.

"Thou shalt be a thief, how dare you say that you want to slaughter my Huns!"

Shi Xun shook his head slowly: "It's just to slaughter the Rubu, who Yun slaughtered the Huns?" And when I defeat Gao Gan, annex the state, and then lead the army to the north and wipe out Shan Yuting, then it will be the real slaughter of the Huns. Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed: "Xi Wei Qing defeated Yizhi in Mobei, Chen Tang killed Zhi in the Western Regions, and got the name Qingshi, I slaughtered the Huns today, leaving no women and children, I don't know how future generations will praise?" ”

Hu Chuquan fell to the ground and hissed: "I am the one who offended you, why should I offend my Huns?!" ”

Shi Xun raised his eyebrows: "It's useless to shout." The county office is large, and the people in the courtyard are noisy, even if you raise your voice, it will be difficult for your subordinates to hear. Besides, now that thou art in my hand, they have heard of it, and dare to come to their rescue? Turning his face on the face: "You are not the only one who has sinned against me!" ”

Hu Chuquan completely withered at this moment, so he had to reply dejectedly: "Yes, this is really the plan of the right virtuous king...... I can write a book to summon the right virtuous king, and kill myself with him to ask you for your sin, only to ask for mercy from the Huns. ”

It was Xun who was amused in his heart: the Xiongnu clan in Hedong, plus the Youxian Wang's department that broke into the annexation of the state, there were no less than 10,000 households of men and women, in addition to tens of thousands of households in Yuting alone, and tens of thousands of households scattered in Liangzhou and other places, "slaughtering the Xiongnu"? You think it's that easy to chop vegetables? casually put a few cruel words to vent your anger, do you really believe it......

Things came too fast, how to clean up Huchu Spring, he really didn't think about it completely, and had to take one step at a time - "Just flood our county for a long time, and our county is not enough to fund ......"

Alas, how did you change the topic in an instant? That sounds like a slow thing...... Hu Chuquan immediately raised his head and stared nervously at Shixun. Seeing that Shi Xun's face sank like water, he said word by word: "Please give me a token and allow me to accept the four counties, your wife and clansmen, and I will support them on my behalf." Shan Yu can lead the subordinates outside the department to help the right virtuous king. Wen right Xian Wang has been under the Ping Zhou, although its county is small, can temporarily live also, if the stone is off, single in can also live. ”

Your clansmen in the four counties of Hedong, I will take them as hostages, you go to help go to the humble, continue to kill in the north, take the territory of the Yuan family, don't come back to Hedong!

Hu Chuquan had no choice but to grab the ground with his head: "Thank you for not killing the grace, it is as good as the king's life......"

Shi Xun first released one of Hu Chuquan's personal guards, asked him to pass the leaflet to Yu, and ordered the 700 horsemen who came to camp in the north of the city temporarily. Then he found out the "Heavenly Descending Order Yu Xi" from Hu Chuquan - this is a symbol of status, Hu Chuquan must carry it with him - and ordered Jia Qu to hold on to it, to mobilize Sun Wen's department, receive the four counties, and detain the Huns, especially the families of Hu Chuquan and Qubei leaders. The last - "Alone and temporarily live in the department, you can go out of the city to Bingzhou tomorrow morning." ”

This whole set of steps is interlocking and impeccable, and Hu Chuquan can't seize the opportunity to resist if he wants to, so he has to accept his fate. Now that the family, clansmen, and golden seals have all fallen into the hands of Shi Xun, he has nothing to think of except to obey orders.

When Hu Chuquan was escorted out of the city, it was Xun Cai who stood up, honestly walked around the back of the bookcase, sat down on his knees, and ordered: "Please come to Mrs. Guo." ”

The tribesmen escorted Guo Yi in—by this time Guo Yi had been stripped of his armor and dressed in his regular clothes, unbound—and sat down on the guest seat. Shi Xun opened his mouth and asked: "How is Gao Bingzhou like a person?" ”

Guo Yi didn't know what he meant, on the one hand, he was already a prisoner, he didn't dare not bow his head, and on the other hand, he had to maintain the bearing of a scholar, but he cooperated very much, and arched his hand and said: "Gao Bingzhou is a hero in the world, loyal and fearless, and he will ......be punished for believing in rewards."

Shi Xun interrupted him: "Faith reward will be punished? However, if he knew that the two thousand elites were broken by me, and the conspiracy was defeated the day before yesterday, even if Guo Taishou also surrendered to me, how would he deal with Ling Lang? ”

When Guo Yi heard this, he couldn't help but tremble, and his eyes widened in horror: "I heard that he is a genius in the world, and his measurements are magnificent, so he will not do this!" "It's Xun Xin who said it's useless for you to slap your ass, I'm addicted to threatening people today, what's wrong with you? sneered at the moment: "Qing and Xun are enemy countries, and they are magnanimous and corrupt. ”

Guo Yi couldn't help but sigh: "If you have any orders, you can say it clearly." ”

Shi Xun nodded, talking to smart people is easy to do—Guo Yi is undoubtedly more clever than Hu Chuquan—"Xun wants to make Qing write a book and send his cronies to pass it on to Ling Lang." If you can get Jinyang, you can live, if you can't get it, I'm afraid that father and son will never see each other again. ”

Guo Yi frowned and said: "Jinyang is the county of Taiyuan, and Gao Bingzhou is in the city, the army is solid and the food is full, how can I get it?" ”

Shi Xun smiled: "If others are rare, if Linglang ...... Or you can do that. ”

Guo Yi is quite resigned to his fate, and after being captured, he didn't struggle, he didn't shout, and he didn't ask for mercy, and he answered honestly when Xun asked him, but there was one thing, when Shi Xun occasionally asked who gave Gao Gan the idea, and used Hu Chuquan and the plan to go to humility, and wanted to capture himself in one fell swoop, Guo Yi refused to answer. It was very strange to think that the vast majority of people in these years had no sense of secrecy, and this matter was not confidential, so he sent Jing Junxiao to interrogate the captured Yanmen Army to see if there were still others who knew about it.

Sure enough, Jing Huanxiao came back not long after to report: "The donor, the son of Guo Taishou." (To be continued......)

PS: Ahhhh......h Then I'll try to get one more tonight, which friend still has a monthly pass in his hand, and if you don't throw it away, it will expire, just give it all to me, please!
