Chapter 376 The hearts of the people return to the united city

After persuading Tong Yuan to serve as the messenger of the letter, Li Jinsi turned around and found his eldest nephew Zhao Zhenbang, attached a few words to Zhao Zhenbang's ear, and saw Zhao Zhenbang go out of the mansion with a thief on his face, and went directly to find his newly acquired little brother Liu Rong.

When Zhao Zhenbang saw Liu Rong, he said with a frightened face: "Brother Liu, something is wrong! Today, I heard that Uncle Jinsi said that Taiwei Lu has already led his troops to fight across the Yellow River, and in a few days he will fight Shangdang, and then we will all be captured by him and returned to Luoyang, and you will be killed by your imperial brother one by one!"

Liu Rongzheng, who had seen Zhao Zhenbang coming, was full of joy, but when he heard this, he panicked and kept muttering: "I don't want to go back to Luoyang, I don't want to see the emperor's brother, I want to stay in Bingzhou!"

"Alas, in fact, there is no room for things to turn around, the key depends on whether you are willing to contribute......, Brother Liu," Zhao Zhenbang said unfinished.

"Brother Zhao, what can I do? As long as I can do it, I am willing!" As soon as Liu Rong heard that there was still room for turnaround, he immediately took Zhao Zhenbang's hand and begged.

"Actually, it's not difficult, you just need to write a letter to your emperor brother according to what I said!" Zhao Zhenbang patted his chest and comforted Liu Ronglai.

Under the intimidation and instigation of Zhao Dagongzi, the seven-year-old Liu Rong wrote a high-spirited letter to his eldest brother Liu Bian, in which he said that he was now deeply supported by Zhao Xing and the civil and military forces of Bingzhou, and was willing to guard the northern land for the Han Dynasty. Zhao Zhenbang, who got Liu Rong's handwritten letter, also asked Liu Rong to go to a jade pendant that he wore as a token to increase the credibility of Liu Rong's letter.

Li Jinsi, who had made all the preparations, handed over Zhao Xing's handwritten letter, Liu Rong's handwritten letter, and token vouchers to the hero Tong Yuan that night, just waiting for Tong Lao to sneak into the Luoyang Palace, hand over these things to the emperor, and then promote the realization of the Tianji No. 1 plan.

On the second day, Li Jinsi saw Tong Yuan away with his front foot, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Hua Weiguo, who had rushed back from Huguan overnight.

"Brother Wei Guo is in such a hurry, but what's the matter?" asked Li Jinsi.

"My subordinates are entrusted by Commander Zhao to report the military situation urgently!" Hua Weiguo replied in a deep voice.

So Li Jinsi immediately took Hua Weiguo to the Shadow Headquarters to discuss the military situation at the city gate, which was obviously inappropriate.

In the heavily guarded Shadow Headquarters, Hua Weiguo reported to Li Jinsi that Zhu Jun had been using civil engineering operations for several days, and was about to attack Huguan. Li Jinsi was also very surprised after hearing this, knowing that things that could make Zhao Yundu feel tricky were naturally very difficult to do.

"Commander Zhao asked you to come to report this matter in the starry night, is there a way to crack it?" Li Jinsi asked with a frown.

"Commander Zhao did think of a brilliant and extraordinary strategy, but the movement was too big, and countless Shangdang people needed to participate in it......," Hua Weiguo replied to Li Jinsi with some difficulty, because he felt that Zhao Yun's strategy was too unbelievable, and it was a little crazy.

"Please also ask the brothers to make it clear that for the safety of Huguan, don't say that you will use the people of the party, even if you mobilize millions of people in the state, Jinsi will not give up!" Li Jinsi was unmoved, and said very calmly.

Seeing that Li Jinsi's face did not change, Hua Weiguo explained Zhao Yun's plan and plan one by one.

"Okay! General Zilong has a good trick to treat his people in his way, so what's the harm in giving the pot pass to Zhu Jun! Now without further ado, it's too late to ask the lord, so I'll go to see Lord Taishou, immediately recruit 200,000 people in the territory of Shangdang, and go to Huguan overnight!" Li Jinsi made a decision without hesitation, showing his decisive and capable side.

Li Jinsi took Hua Weiguo to the Taishou Mansion in Changzi County, and without being informed by outsiders, he went directly to the front hall to see his grandfather Li Tingfang. As explained in the previous article, after Liu Bei served as the official Cao Shangshu, he transferred Sima Fang, a powerful official under Zhao Xing, to Julu, Jizhou, and brought back Li Tingfang, who Zhao Xing had planted in Hongnong County near Luoyang, to the upper party. Zhao Xing then appointed his grandfather as the party guard, which can be regarded as handing over an important position to a reassuring person.

It is also a commendable thing to say, Li Tingfang, who is nearly eighty years old, has been in good health over the years, and has the momentum of living to the age of 100 years because of the conditioning of the divine doctor Hua Tuo, and the fitness gymnastics Tai Chi Five Bird Opera promoted by Zhao Xing. Zhao Xing saw that his grandfather was in good health and diligent in political affairs, so it was difficult to dissuade him from retreating. Now that the party is in use, it is a blessing to have such a long-lived elder who is willing to continue to do things for the people. When the old man lives to be more than ninety years old in the future, he will be a well-known person in the township, and it is also a silent evidence for promoting Zhao Xing's political achievements.

Li Jinsi explained the incident to his grandfather in a few words, and asked his grandfather to immediately issue an official document and recruit 200,000 young and strong laborers from the party to go to Huguan. Li Tingfang, who knew the importance of Huguan, naturally would not stop him, and immediately called Cao Cao, the official of the government, to start the largest recruitment of people in the party.

After listening to the old lady's instructions, these officials hurriedly got up and went to the counties under the party to convey this important task to the county orders. After the county magistrates received the order, they did not dare to be careless, and immediately summoned all the reservists in the county government, and asked these people to quickly beat gongs and drums to go to the township to gather the people.

As a result, a similar scene occurred in all the townships and villages of Shangdang: When it was getting late, the members of the security team played torches, banged gongs, and shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, Huguan is in danger, and Zhu Jun is piling up soil with 100,000 allied troops to seal the pass! The general's office issued an urgent order, all the young and strong people in Shangdang should bring their own rations and tools for carrying soil and stones, and everyone will go to Huguan to pile up soil and build a pass, and we must protect the family business of Shangdang!"

The people of Shangdang, who had already slept, listened to the shouts of the security guards patrolling outside, and got up one after another to inquire, and learned that the Huguan was in danger of being lost, and General Zilong called on everyone to go and rebuild a Huguan, so the crowd was furious and hurriedly prepared.

It may be difficult to let the people of Shangdang directly fight in front of the imperial court coalition army, but if the people go to build an earthen city behind Huguan, everyone can do this. In particular, the security guards shouted that once the coalition forces entered the Huguan, the party would have no danger to defend, and the property of each family would be wiped out in an instant. This sentence is ruthless, and it directly mobilizes the determination and courage of the people to help defend the Huguan.

Most of the people in Shangdang were born in exile, and now that their families are rich and healthy, and the imperial court coalition is coming, everything will come to naught. How can the people accept this from their hearts? Even if it is not for the Zhenbei General's Mansion, in order to save their family business, the people now dare to take up arms and fight against the coalition forces!

Early in the morning of the second day, the young and strong laborers of Shangdang counties carried the flatbread that had been baked overnight, and carried the agricultural tools used for digging the soil, the baskets, the earthen baskets, the wheelbarrows for transporting goods, and the two-wheeled people-drawn carts, and the tide generally poured into Huguan. Many people were afraid that there would be nowhere to put soil under the Huguan, so when they went, they went to great lengths, carrying a bag of soil or carrying a stone on their backs......

A great man once said: The Huaihai Battle was pushed out by the villagers with wheelbarrows...... Now at the critical moment of Huguan, the great charisma of the Zhenbei General's Mansion is reflected. The essence of the so-called people's war lies here, and the people's war is not for all the people to go to the battlefield to fight, but to win the support of the broadest masses of the people. In other words, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world.
