Chapter 9 Appointment of County Lieutenants
With Sun Jian, Zhu Jun was naturally very happy, so he sent Sun Jian to attack the south gate, Liu Bei and others attacked the north gate, and he himself went to attack the west gate, leaving only the gap in the east gate for the Yellow Turban thieves to escape.
Counting Yuyi's side, the combined combat effectiveness is the strongest, but soon some soldiers reported that it was Sun Jian who first climbed the city wall and killed more than 20 people.
Sun Jian's bravery caused the Yellow Turban thieves to scatter in all directions, and Zhao Hong knew that if he let it go, then the army's spirit would inevitably disperse, so he single-handedly picked up the assault lance and attacked Sun Jian on a flying horse.
It's a pity that he still underestimated the strength of the other party, and when the distance was closer, Sun Jian suddenly took away Zhao Hong's weapon as if he had eyes on his back, and then he started with a stab, and his horse fell in response, not only that, Sun Jian also robbed the opponent's horse, and actually rode to kill the enemy.
Sun Zhong wanted to escape from the north gate with the remaining yellow turban thieves at this time, and as soon as he went out, he met Liu Bei's troops, and he was immediately frightened, and he had no intention of dealing with it at all, just thinking about how to escape.
Yuyi saw his chess pieces from afar and shouted, "Don't let him run!" ”
Zhang Fei was about to fly over, but was stopped by Xuande and said, "Little thief, you don't need the third brother to make a move, and you have taken a bow and crossbow!" ”
Guan Yu handed the bow and arrow to Liu Bei, and he bent his bow and arrow, and only one arrow shot Sun Zhong, or shot to the vital part, he couldn't sit still anymore, turned over and fell off the horse, and was trampled by other thieves.
The main forces on both sides were eliminated, the Yellow Turban Army had already lost its fighting spirit, Zhu Jun led the army to cover up, beheaded tens of thousands of people, accepted countless surrenderers, and then it was a one-sided victory, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Jun took Sun Jian and Liu Bei to kill together, Nanyang this way, in a short period of time, pacified more than ten groups.
This time it was a major victory, Zhu Jun returned to the dynasty with a large army, and was named the general of the chariot and cavalry by the imperial court, and was named Henan Yin.
Naturally, he did not forget the merits of Sun Jian and Liu Bei, and the above recital explained the merits of the two. Only Liu Bei's side never responded, which made the brothers very unhappy.
Yuyi wondered if Liu Hong knew where he was hiding and deliberately treated his eldest brother like this. The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he thought that he had to make sure that if it was because of this, his sin would be great.
So I went to the street to find Liu Bei, and happened to meet Liu Bei chatting with a person and asking for his name, and that person was Zhang Jun in Langzhong.
Yuyi knew that most of the people in the court knew his identity, so he bought a hat around to cover his face, and did not immediately go to recognize Xuande, but stood not far away and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two.
Liu Bei and Zhang Jun talked, and the whole article was about complaining to each other, bitterly stating that he had made a contribution to the extermination of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Jun was very surprised after hearing it, and did not express his position for a while.
Yu Yi thought in his heart, this Zhang Jun, if he doesn't want to state the actual situation, forget it, why make such a gesture.
thought that he was going to refuse, and then leave, but he didn't expect Zhang Jun to hold Xuande's hand tightly and tell him that he would definitely give him justice.
After Zhang Jun left, Yuyi appeared, walked in front of Liu Bei, and said, "Big brother, there are some things that I think need to talk to you about." ”
Liu Bei observed the seriousness on Yu Yi's face, and knew that this matter was not trivial, so he pulled Yu Yi to the inn, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were also there, and several people talked about it in detail.
Yu Yi talked about the festival with Zhang Jiao, especially the matter of harming Tang Zhou, so that the Yellow Turban Army revolted in advance, he said in great detail, although Liu Bei could not agree with Yu Yi's behavior, but considering that the other party was in order to destroy the overall situation of the thief, he still appreciated more than criticized.
However, Zhang Fei was a little unconvinced, and always interrupted Yuyi's words and questioned them, but Guan Yu liked to listen to it, so he held Zhang Fei down and didn't want him to talk more.
At the end of the talk, Yuyi expressed the concerns in his heart.
"Brothers, after that, because I met the great general He Jin and went to the court with him, or the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong thought I was very interesting, so he asked me to stay in the court."
Yu Yi sighed as he spoke, this memory was unbearable.
"It's naturally very good to be able to serve the imperial court, so why do you want to leave?"
Liu Bei was very puzzled, the opportunity of Yuyi was something that could not be met for him.
"Big brother doesn't know, this Spirit Emperor is very mediocre, he built a palace market, as well as a naked tour hall, indulged in wine all day long, and forced me to give him some fresh fun ideas, which is really a way to be a minister."
Yuyi just simplifies the experience, especially those erosive lives.
Liu Bei nodded, although he was a member of the Han family, he couldn't bear this kind of mediocre behavior.
"Later, I took the opportunity of the Yellow Turban Army uprising and the imperial court to send troops to escape, as far as I know, Liu Hong must have been wanted, but he couldn't find me for a long time, so he put it on hold for the time being."
Yu Yi took a sip of the tea on the table.
Speaking of this, Liu Bei knew Yu Yi's concerns and comforted: "Actually, you don't have to worry, it's not the reason why we haven't been rewarded this time, there will be results tomorrow." ”
On the second day, Zhang Jun really reported the situation to Liu Hong in the court, and said: "In the past, Zhang Jiao led the Yellow Turban Army to rebel, the fundamental reason was that the ten permanent servants bought and sold officials, they were not relatives, they were not relatives, and if they were not enemies, they would not be punished, which led to chaos in the world. ”
Zhang Jun's recital caused an uproar in the court, and the faces of the ten permanent servants were not good-looking, they were all people personally promoted by Emperor Ling at this time, and being counted down by Zhang Jun like this naturally made Emperor Ling very dissatisfied.
At this time, the Ten Standing Servants also began to fight back, saying: "Zhang Jun has committed the crime of defrauding the king, and he is framing." ”
At this time, Emperor Ling had no evidence, let alone the mood to judge justice, and directly ordered the warriors to drive Zhang Jun out of the hall.
The Ten Standing Servants knew that this matter was all due to the imbalance in their hearts caused by some people who had not received the reward, so they suggested: "You can give that person a minor official first, so that he can have an explanation, so that it will be stable." ”
Emperor Ling was allowed to play, so Xuande was sent to Zhongshan Mansion in Dingzhou to serve as the county lieutenant.
This county lieutenant is an official who is one level lower than the county magistrate, and his main responsibility is to be in charge of local law and order.
For Liu Bei, who has ambitions, he is naturally a little aggrieved in his heart, but he is very broad-minded and does not care about some gains and losses.
After Liu Bei got the letter of appointment, he dismissed the originally recruited Xiangyong, gave some money as travel expenses, and left only 20 capable people, so he went to the local area to take office.
