Chapter 431: Big Ears Fail to Recognize Relatives
The battle situation in Jizhou was originally very anxious, after all, there was Zhang Liang stationed in Guangzong City at that time, and Zhang Jiao was stationed in Jizhou City, the two brothers were horns for each other, and the fortress in Feilong Mountain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so Huang Zhong had been in a stalemate with Zhang Liang at that time, but later with Zhang Liang's defeat and capture, Sima Wei used a strategy to lead out the defenders of the fortress to break through the fortress in one fell swoop, Guangzong's defender Zhao Hong felt that his remaining more than 30,000 people were difficult to defend Guangzong City, so he asked Zhang Jiao to evacuate Guangzong, Zhang Jiao felt that the Feilong Mountain fortress was lost, and Guangzong City was indeed difficult to defend, So he asked Zhao Hong to lead people to withdraw to Jizhou City.

In the southwest of about twenty miles away from Jizhou City, there is a mountain peak with an altitude of 800 meters called Juliang Mountain, the grass and trees under the mountain are luxuriant, and there are streams flowing through, it can be regarded as a place with beautiful scenery, and this is the only place to pass through from Yingchuan to Jizhou, Huang Zhong's camp is more than ten miles away from here, Zhang Yi specially arranged a camp here, ostensibly to welcome Huangfu Song and others here, but in fact, it is to avoid letting Cao Cao and the three of them observe their camp, after all, they are all opponents in the future, and it is necessary to be more guarded.
After arriving at the camp, Zhang Yi sat in the first seat as the master, although Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were a little unhappy, but it was not easy to say anything, because in terms of official rank and title, Zhang Yi is the biggest, having said that, at present, there are only three dukes who can overpower Zhang Yi in official positions, and even Jiuqing can only be regarded as equal to Zhang Yi.
However, the person sitting on the first seat, in addition to Zhang Yi, there is another person, that person is Liu Huai, the younger brother of Emperor Ling of Han, who was sent by Emperor Ling of Han to reward the three armies.
Speaking of history, the person who came to reward the three armies should be the eunuch Zuo Feng, when Zuo Feng came to the army, he asked Lu Zhi for bribes, Lu Zhi refused to give in, and said, "There is no money in the army to reward the sergeant, where is the money with you", so he was hated by Zuo Feng, and after returning to the dynasty, he reported to Emperor Han Ling that Lu Zhi was proud of his merits and did not move, which made Emperor Han Ling angry, dismissed Lu Zhi's official, and ordered Dong Zhuo, who was promoted to Zhonglang General, to take over, of course, this is history.
In history, Zuo Feng, the gelding, could be sent as a supervisor to reward the three armies, mainly because the generals who led the troops at that time were He Jin's people, but this time it was different, Zhang Yi was famous in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Yi's name Luoyang City, from the emperor to the people, everyone knew it, He Jin naturally could not let the people of the Ten Standing Servants to reward the three armies, but the Ten Standing Servants would not easily let He Jin's people go, and the two sides argued for a long time, and finally Emperor Ling of Han sent his younger brother Liu Huai over.
With Liu Huai, even if there are many contradictions between Zhang Yi and Huangfu Song, they will naturally not show it, even Zhang Yi is polite to the Sun family father and son, both sides have a tacit understanding and did not talk about the military situation, but talked about poetry and songs, after a few glasses of wine, Zhang Yi was also poetic, and even memorized several Tang poems and Song lyrics, which attracted applause from everyone present.
"Here, let's have another drink."
"Respect His Highness King Mu."
Driven by Liu Huai, everyone raised their glasses.
After drinking all the wine in the wine glass, Cao Cao and Sun Jian glanced at each other, put down the wine glass, got up and saluted Zhang Yishen: "Former general, there is one thing to ask for in a humble position, and I hope that the former general must be fulfilled." ”
"Hey Brother Mengde, if you have something to say," raised his hand to signal Cao Cao to sit down, Zhang Yi smiled and said: "We are all doing things for the emperor in the court, and in the court, that is a brother, you are many years older than me, what do you want or not, as long as the brother can do it, Brother Meng De can only say it." ”
Although he said this in his mouth, Zhang Yi was secretly scolding Cao Cao in his heart for being shameless, and as soon as he arrived here, he wanted to ask for benefits from himself.
Zhang Yi guessed right, Cao Cao really wanted to ask Zhang Yi for benefits, so as soon as he heard Zhang Yi's words, Cao Cao immediately unceremoniously said his request.
"Since the former general said so, then I'm not welcome, the former general should know that I don't have many soldiers and horses under the command of the cavalry captain, and this time I fought hard with the Yellow Turban Army, mine was also heavily damaged, and more importantly..." Can the former general allocate a batch of captured Yellow Turban thieves so that the inferior functions can replenish the soldiers? ”
As soon as Cao Cao's voice fell, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and Huangfu Song turned their heads to look at Zhang Yi.
"This ......"
As soon as he heard Cao Cao's so-called request to be a prisoner, Zhang Yi immediately hesitated.
Although he had long expected that Cao Cao's "request" might not be simple, Zhang Yi didn't expect Cao Cao to be so shameless that he didn't have the ability to catch a prisoner and was ashamed to come to ask for it.
"Captain Cao!"
Before Zhang Yi could speak, Huang Zhong stood up.
Chong Cao arched his hand, and Huang Zhong said quite displeasedly: "Captain Cao and your lords, we march to fight, relying on our own skills and soldiers to sacrifice their lives to fight, there is no reason why the prisoners of war we captured in desperate battles should be given to you in vain, right?" ”
Huang Zhong's meaning is obvious, he just doesn't want to send it, but Cao Cao and they have said everything, so naturally they won't give up easily.
"General Huang don't want to refuse so quickly," got up with a smile, Liu Bei arched his hand and said: "General Huang may not know, the former general went south to quell the chaos, and the Xianbei people in the north couldn't bear it, it is said that the thieves had the intention of taking advantage of my Han's internal worries to go south, and the former general in order to quell the Yellow Turban thieves, brought all the main forces of the Northern Army stationed in the north to the Zhuojun area, which made the northern line empty, and the Xianbei people would naturally take the opportunity to go south." ”
Liu Bei's words were punns, and he indirectly pushed the responsibility of the Xianbei people's southern invasion to Zhang Yi, but he didn't know that the Xianbei people's southern invasion was fundamentally instructed by Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi instructed Kirby to go south with Bu Dugen, but he didn't actually tell Sima Wei and Huang Zhong, but Sima Wei and Huang Zhong were not stupid, so they naturally knew that it was definitely Zhang Yi's meaning, and they didn't think about Kirby Neng and Bu Dugen's betrayal at all.
Sima Wei, who was sitting on the right hand, glanced at Zhang Yi and arched his hand at Liu Bei: "This general doesn't know what to call him." ”
Bowing down to Sima Wei and changing the salute, Liu Bei said loudly: "After going down to King Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, who used to worship under Lord Lu, are now under the account of Lord Gongsun and are appointed as the general of Zuo Yalang." ”
Hearing that Liu Bei finally reported the words 'King Jing of Zhongshan', Zhang Yi said in his heart: It's finally here.
When Liu Bei and Zhang Yi met for the first time before, they never said what they were after King Jing of Zhongshan, but now that his own strength has expanded a lot, he naturally began to label himself.
"Oh, it turned out to be King Jing of Zhongshan, disrespectful and disrespectful," after returning the salute with a smile, Sima Wei turned his head to look at Liu Huai, the king of Mu who was the first seat: "His Royal Highness King Mu ......"
Sima Wei's meaning couldn't be more obvious, after Liu Bei called himself King Jing of Zhongshan, he was Lu Zhi's protégé, and he had something to do with Gongsun Zhan, so he should be true after King Jing of Zhongshan, although King Jing of Zhongshan is a declining prince, but how to say that it is also a royal family, Liu Bei, after King Jing of Zhongshan, will be able to call Liu Huai a brother and brother, but it also depends on whether Liu Huai recognizes this relative.
As soon as Liu Bei's words were finished, Liu Huai, who was about to pick up vegetables, was stunned, but after staring at Liu Bei with big eyes for a while, Liu Huai smiled coldly, picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, and said while eating: "The King of Zhongshan has been here for three hundred years, and there are still people who can come out to recognize him as his descendants, which is really speechless, but it's also true, Liu Pengzu, the king of Zhao, once said, 'The king of Zhongshan is only arrogant and luxurious, and does not assist the Son of Heaven to appease the people, is not worthy of being called a king' A king like this, it is normal for the descendants to flourish, but after so many years, there is no name on the Liu family tree, so naturally it is not after the royal family, otherwise a random person surnamed Liu will come out and say that it is after the royal family, then it will be chaotic, so don't say this kind of thing again in the future. ”
The meaning of Liu Huai's words is obviously that he does not recognize Liu Bei as a descendant, and between his words, he not only denies Liu Bei's identity as a royal family, but even Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing, whom he recognizes, does not seem to agree with him, which makes Liu Bei very embarrassed.
"It's... Commanded by humility. ”
The old face flushed, and Liu Bei, who was embarrassed, sat back in his place and stopped talking.
Liu Bei was scolded back by Liu Huai here, which also made Sima Wei quite embarrassed, because at first he wanted to come out to refute Liu Bei, but now that he was doing this, he felt that he was choking Liu Bei with words, and he was a little downset, so he stood there and said no, not to say it, and the atmosphere in the big tent was extremely embarrassing for a while.
Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Zhang Yi laughed and hurriedly got up to play a round: "Since Meng De has spoken, then I naturally can't refuse, after all, everyone is for the emperor and the people of the Han Dynasty, so let's do it, one person has five thousand prisoners of war, and all the generals present have a share, how about it?" ”
Zhang Yi is also generous, and he has a share in the scene, which means that Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are all counted, and this gift will send 25,000 people, which is quite large.
After listening to Zhang Yi's words, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun both laughed, but Sun Liu Cao didn't laugh, if Zhang Yi reluctantly agreed under their entanglement, they wouldn't feel strange, but Zhang Yi agreed a little too happily, which made the three of them quite puzzled.
Sun Liu Cao and Cao saw the expressions of the three of them, Zhang Yi saw it in his eyes, he knew that with the minds of the three of them, his words would make them doubtful, so he who wanted to give it away for nothing immediately turned around and said his conditions, and after listening to Zhang Yi's conditions, Cao Cao and the three of them also showed a relieved expression on their faces.
