Chapter 61: Reshuffling (2)
Three months ago, Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to attack Jingzhou, Sun Jian was overjoyed, and led more than 20,000 soldiers to Jingzhou, Huang Zu faced the battle, and in the past three months, he has killed the blood-stained Yangtze River for 20 miles, regardless of victory or defeat.
Speaking of Jingzhou, I have to mention Uncle Liu Huang. Since Liu Bei led his troops to vote for Liu Biao three months ago, Liu Biao didn't want to accept it and it was not easy to refuse, so he placed Liu Bei in Xinye, north of Jingzhou. So Liu Biao allocated 10,000 troops to Liu Bei and let Liu Bei garrison Xinye.
Li Ru proposed to Liu Bei to set up a banquet to entertain Liu Biao as a thank you, Liu Bei felt that it was reasonable, so he agreed to Li Ru.
A few days later, Liu Biao really came to the appointment as scheduled, and everyone drank at the banquet, Liu Bei frequently toasted Liu Biao and expressed his gratitude for taking care of himself, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
After thirty years of drinking, Li Ru suddenly proposed to let Chen Dao dance the sword to help the fun, Liu Bei didn't know Li Ru's thoughts, so he agreed. Chen Zhi is very good at martial arts, and a set of incisive swordsmanship makes everyone present full of praise, and no one pays attention to why Chen Zhi is getting closer and closer to Liu Biao.
Li Ru broke the wine bowl coldly, with a bang, Chen was suddenly difficult, and when everyone's attention turned to Li Ru, he cut off Liu Biao's head with a sword! Liu Biao didn't even have time to scream, and fell on the desk without saying a word, bleeding nonstop.
For a while, Liu Bei, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and Liu Biao's subordinates all had a collective brain short-circuit, unable to accept the fact that they were seeing, and the entire lively lobby instantly became audible.
Liu Biao's subordinates were the first to come back to their senses, and they all drew their long swords to kill Liu Bei, avenging their lord for their own lord! Chen Zhi was in front of Liu Bei, and no one could approach Liu Bei for a while, and at the same time, fifty axe men who had been in ambush outside the door for a long time rushed in, and after a bloody storm, all Liu Biao's subordinates were killed.
After that, Li Confucian's henchmen broadcast rumors in Jingzhou, saying that Liu Biao was assassinated on the way back. After all, this is not a trivial matter, the news spread in a few days, and finally reached the Jingzhou Prefecture capital.
Cai Mao, a famous family in Jingzhou, the son of Cai Wei, and his aunt (Cai Wei's sister) is the wife of Taiwei Zhang Wen, the eldest sister and the second sister married Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao successively and became the stepfamily, because of this, Cai Mao can become Liu Biao's number one general! Ren Jiangxia, Nanjun, Zhangling and other counties are too guarded, holding heavy military power, and his status is higher than Wenpin, Huang Zhong, Huang Zu, etc.!
After getting the news of Liu Biao's death, Cai Mao led an army of 50,000 to Xinye, ready to find Liu Bei to ask for a teacher, but who knew that he encountered Liu Biao's assassinated body on the way, so he had to send Liu Biao's body back.
It stands to reason that the position of the lord should be passed on to the eldest son of the heir, Liu Qi, but Cai Mao wanted to support the second son Liu Cong because of his relatives, and even the mourning hall did not let Liu Qi enter. Liu Qi couldn't enter the mourning hall, so he could only return with tears, Cai Mao's actions made almost everyone in the mourning hall dissatisfied, Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang, Huang Zu, Wen Ping, Huang Zhong and others all walked out of the mourning hall and followed Liu Qi.
In this way, Cai Mao held a grudge, and in order to be able to justifiably support Liu Cong, Cai Mao decided to get rid of Liu Qi.
Coincidentally, at this time, Yuan Shu happened to learn that Liu Biao was hanging, and sent Sun Jian to take the opportunity to attack Jingzhou. Cai Mao simply came up with a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and let Huang Zu, Wen Ping, Huang Zhong and other generals all be transferred to the front line to resist Sun Jian, leaving Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang two powerless strategists, no matter how smart they are, they will inevitably die! In this way, get rid of Liu Qi first, and then clean them up when those generals are half dead, why worry about the great cause?
However, the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang had already seen through Cai Mao's ambitions, so they came up with a plan! In order to prevent Cai Maojue, first let Huang Zu, Wen Ping, and Huang Zhong rush to the front line to resist Sun Jian, and then secretly contact Liu Bei as foreign aid.
A few days later, Cai Mao came to arrest Liu Qi with a thousand and five foot soldiers, and it was meal time, and the two brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang surrendered to Cai Mao according to the plan, and toasted Cai Mao to make amends. Cai Mao thought that the overall situation had been decided, and she was very proud, and after making sure that the wine was not poisonous, she did not refuse to come, and drank a lot of special drinks, anyway, there were dozens of subordinates around her, and they didn't dare to play any tricks.
After thirty years of drinking, Cai Mao was top-heavy and said a lot of nonsense about supporting Liu Cong, and the two brothers Kuailiang and Kuaiyue were also a little uncontrollable, and there was only a trace of sobriety and hoped that Liu Bei would arrive soon.
The emperor lived up to his wishes, and suddenly a henchman reported to Cai Mao, saying that Liu Bei led two thousand elite horsemen into the city!
The drunken Cai Mao was taken aback when he heard this, and he didn't see anything wrong, and immediately beckoned his subordinates to go out to fight the enemy, while he took the two brothers Liu Qi and Kuai Yue Kuai Liang to escape from the back door in a hurry. As soon as the back door opened, I saw nearly 100 people dressed as domestic slaves aiming at him with bows and arrows, and Cai Mao suddenly realized that he had been tricked!
After all, Cai Mao's influence is too great to be killed lightly, so the two brothers agreed that it would be more appropriate to put Cai Mao under house arrest.
Liu Qi is too young to manage this Jingzhou territory, so who is suitable for this position? Only Liu Bei of Xinye! Liu Bei is not only kind to the people, but also a well-known Han clan ancestor Uncle Liu Huang. So, the two Kuai brothers pushed Liu Bei to the throne of Jingzhou, and Jingzhou was also unanimous, Liu Bei couldn't refuse, and agreed very reluctantly.
Liu Bei himself took up the post of Jingzhou Assassin in the Jiangling Prefecture Governor's Prefecture, transferred most of his troops to the front line to resist Sun Jian, and let Guan Yu continue to garrison Xinye to prevent Zhang Xiu, who was subordinate to Sili, from going south.
Zhang Xiu's name sounds like a woman, but in fact she is a serious pure man! When Dong Zhuo was killed, Zhang Ji, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others attacked Chang'an to avenge Dong Zhuo. Zhang Xiu followed Zhang Ji, was promoted to General Jianzhong with military merits, and was named Xuanwei Hou, which shows that Zhang Xiu is not an embroidered pillow.
Due to the lack of food in the army, Zhang Ji led troops from Guanzhong into the Jingzhou border, fought with Liu Biao, attacked the city, and died in the middle of the arrow. Zhang Xiu took over Zhang Ji's troops and withdrew his troops from the city. After that, Liu Biao sent someone to recruit Zhang Xiu, although Zhang Xiu hated Liu Biao, but because of the lack of food, he had to bow his head and submit. So Liu Biao arranged for Zhang Xiu to garrison troops in Wancheng, and Zhang Xiu became Liu Biao's vassal force in the north to defend him against foreign enemies.
Don't underestimate Wancheng! Wancheng is the county seat of Nanyang County, and it is surrounded by 36 counties such as E, Bowang, Duyang, Pheasant County, and Ye County, and only one Nanyang County is almost half of Qingzhou!
After Zhang Xiu had food, Zhang Xiu recruited troops and horses to expand his strength, and while training soldiers, he learned from Jia Xu how to figure out the minds of others.
When Zhang Xiu learned that Liu Biao was hanging, he said that he wanted to wave his troops south to attack the city, but Jia Xu waved his hand to stop Zhang Xiu. "The general should not act rashly, at this time the gains of the soldiers outweigh the losses."
It's obviously a good time to send troops, but how can the gains outweigh the losses? Zhang Xiu was puzzled and asked why. Jia Xu replied: "Liu Biao is a good person and has won the support of the people, isn't it ridiculous to talk about assassination? Moreover, Liu Bei died in Jingzhou within a few days, and Liu Biao died in less than a few days after Liu Biao's death, and Liu Bei took office in Jingzhou within a few days of his death. I expect that Xinye will be heavily guarded, and if the general insists on attacking, it will be difficult! There are masters under Liu Bei's account! ”
Liu Yan, the word Junlang. He is a native of Jiangxia Jingling and a descendant of Liu Yu, the king of Lugong in the Western Han Dynasty. As a member of the Han Dynasty clan, he has served as Zhonglang General, Luoyang Ling, Jizhou Thorn History, Nanyang Taishou, Zongzheng, Taichang and other officials.
At that time, Yizhou Assassin Shi Xuan Jian gathered in Yizhou, greed became the norm, and when the Yellow Turban was in chaos, Xuan Jian was killed by the Yellow Turban. Liu Yan felt that Yizhou had good fertilizer and water, and the opportunity was rare, so he asked the imperial court to be the pastor of Yizhou, seal the city of Yang, and go to Yizhou to rectify the rule of officials.
After Liu Yan entered Yizhou, he turned into a new generation of vampires, absorbing the fruits of the people's labor. Even so, Liu Yan was still not satisfied, three months ago sent Zhang Lu to entrench in Hanzhong to cut off the traffic, beheaded the Han envoy, since then Yizhou and the central road is not passable, Liu Yan began to extend his claws to the local local Haoqiang, as long as there is no rich family has not been charged protection money, Yizhou is therefore in a semi-independent state.
Above Yizhou is Liangzhou, the people of Liangzhou are fierce, many people grew up on horseback, and fighting on horseback is definitely no less than the world-famous Danyang soldiers! The local horses have excellent bloodlines, and the terrain is mostly flat, Xiliang Tieqi is definitely the only overlord in the 6 places!
In November last year, the Didao kingdom and the Di, Qiang and other ethnic groups rebelled, the new Liangzhou assassin Zuo Chang took advantage of the conscription to intercept tens of millions of military funds to fill his own pockets, Gai Xun insisted on dissuading, Zuo Chang was not happy, so he sent Gai Xun to lead the army to garrison Ayang County, Hanyang County, facing the rebels. The rebels saw that Ayang County could not be breached, so they turned to attack Jincheng County, beheaded Chen Yi, the Taishou of Jincheng County, and took the overseers engaged in Bian Yun and Han Yue as hostages, and refused to return them, forcing them to join the rebels, and elected Bian Yun as the leader, Han Yue also became the rebel's military advisor, and since then Bian Yun has been renamed Bian Zhang, and Han Yue has also officially changed his name to Han Sui at this time.
At that time, the state and county recruited warriors to prepare for the rebellion. Ma Teng was drafted and valued by state and county officials, and was appointed to the army to lead the troops against the rebels.
Ma Teng is more than eight feet long, with a large body, a majestic face and nose, and a virtuous personality, and people admire him very much.
When Ma Teng was young, he was poor and had no property, so he often cut timber from Zhangshan and carried it to the city to sell it to support himself. It is said that he is a descendant of Han Fubo's general Ma Yuan, his father was a captain of Tianshui Lan, and then lost his official position and stayed in Longxi, married a Qiang girl, and gave birth to Ma Teng.
The rebel leader Bian Zhang failed to attack Ma Teng, but was killed by Ma Teng!
