Three days later, that is, on the fifth day of the sixth month of the third year of Zhongping, more than 30,000 people walked from Juyong Pass and took four days to reach Zhuoxian.

Sun Ming stayed in Zhuo County for a day, but he did not enter the county seat, and Yu Li led his troops to separate from Sun Ming here.

Then Sun Ming set up a simple kiosk at the highest place of the barracks, and there was a desk in the pavilion, he was waiting for Liu He, who was also an important person in the rear of Youzhou.

Liu He was Liu Yu's sister-in-law, and after both his father and son were defeated by Sun Ming, Liu He was also placed in Fangcheng as a county commander.

He had received an order two days ago to leave his city of office early and wait for Sun Ming's summons here.

At noon, Liu He, under the leadership of Gongsun Zhong, deliberately passed through the neatly arranged soldiers and came to the small pavilion.

Sun Ming had already knelt here and waited for him, and Liu He saluted again and again, "Xiaguan Liu He greets Sun Tingshi." ”

"Liu He, come and sit down." After sitting down, Sun Ming continued: "Are my sergeants brave? Is it well-equipped? ”

Liu He replied majestically, "It's really a heroic teacher, the assassin has a good way to govern the army, and there are more than 100 military generals, I'm afraid that no one in the world dares to confront the assassin history." ”

Sun Ming listened to his flattery, and the corners of his mouth grinned, "Liu He, I heard that you are doing a good job in Fangcheng, I specially summoned you today just to promote you." ”

When Liu He heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly fell to the ground, "Assassin Shi is too praised, he just does his own job, and it is not worthy of praise." ”

"Okay, I won't tease you, today I just want to tell you a few words of truth, you get up and listen to me."

Liu He was still sitting upright, listening with his head down.

"I'm an assassin today, you're welcome, I'm not a competitor, I know you're still blaming me for your father's affairs, but don't forget that you also sent someone to assassinate me."

"In my hands, the people of the four counties of Daidai, Zhuo, Shanggu, and Guangyang are recuperating and living and working in peace and contentment, and you can see these achievements."

Although it is summer now, Liu He still feels that his hands and feet are cold, and sweat is like rain, "The history of thorns and people's livelihood vigorously encourage farming and breeding, and a certain city where it is located also hears about the exploits of thorn history." ”

"The entire Han can pay so much attention to internal affairs, I'm afraid there is only one assassin."

Sun Ming ignored his praise and continued, "I have the ability to make peace in the jurisdiction, and I also have the means to make the entire Yuyang and Youbeiping counties bleed.

"Once my more than 60,000 soldiers marched in, you also know what will happen, and there are more than 40,000 reserves in each county, as long as I give an order, the number of our army can immediately expand by more than 100,000, let alone issue a conscription order."

Sun Ming's words are very watery, but people, sometimes it is not necessary to exaggerate their own abilities, which can deter opponents.

As soon as Liu He heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and knelt on the ground, "Ask the assassin to have great benevolence, don't act rashly, they are just ignorant and can't see current affairs clearly, and they are not deliberately against the assassin history." ”

Sun Ming stared at him and called up his data to take a look.

【Liu He】

"This man doesn't have a good opinion of me, but he should be afraid of me and dare not rebel."

After thinking about it in his heart, he continued to say to him, "So I hope that you will let go of the mustard in your heart, be promoted to Yuyang Taishou, take your father's old subordinates well, and submit them to me, and their lives will all be in your hands, are you willing to make a trip?" ”

Although his position of assassin is one level higher, there is still no direct administrative subordination between him and the Taishou.

But there are no absolutes, the chaotic times are chaotic, and the power of the assassin is getting bigger and bigger, and even accepting the fate of the Taishou does not need the permission of the imperial court.

Liu He bowed his head and pondered for a moment, "Xiaguan is willing to dedicate his life to the people of Youzhou, just to stop the war in vain, and to do his best to complete the order of the assassination." ”

Sun Ming got up and walked in front of Liu He and helped him up, "Just this opportunity, you have also seen my strength, there is no good end to resisting, if you can't persuade you to move, then next time it will be my heroic division to move." ”

Liu He's sweaty face was bloodless, it was obvious that he had been frightened by Sun Ming, many of his father's old subordinates were also friends he knew, and he couldn't watch everyone die miserably.

After a short time, he retired, and rushed back to Fangcheng to pack his bags and go to Yuyang to take up a post.

After dealing with the problem of Yuyang, Sun Ming was also relieved, at this time to send Liu He over, even if he couldn't surrender all, but at least he could hold out until he came back.

The next day, Sun Ming's army of more than 30,000 people marched into Zhangwu County in the Bohai Sea, and Zhangwu County ordered Chen Mu to wait for a long time, and as soon as the army arrived, he was very cooperative in handing over control of Zhangwu.

Zhangwu is the first stop, and it is also an important hub connecting his home base of Zhuojun and Guangyang County, which cannot be missed.

Sun Ming was also very satisfied with his attitude, but for the sake of safety, he still changed to a civil official under him, Zhang Liu, as the commander of Zhangwu County.

He immediately ordered Zhang Fei to lead 10,000 people to enter Nanpi, the administrative office of Bohai County, and let Gongsun Zhong lead 10,000 people to enter Dongguang County, and first firmly control the four counties promised by Yuan Shao.

Sun Ming's entry into the Bohai Sea completely disrupted the existing situation in Jizhou, and Yuan Shu was in Wuyi County, Anping State at this time, with an army of more than 40,000 people.

originally wanted to continue to annex the entire Anping Kingdom, but Sun Ming suddenly stepped into the Bohai Sea, which risked copying his back road.

He was very angry, and then came to the strategists Yang Hong and Han Hao to discuss, "This Youzhou Sun Ming's army stationed in the Bohai Sea must be the idea of that concubine, and he thought that one more Sun Ming would be able to stop me." ”

"The more I think about it, the more angry I become, I'd rather give it to outsiders than return to the family, it's really a lowly commodity with bad roots."

"I want to turn around and attack Bohai and drive Sun Ming away, what do you two think?"

When the strategist Yang Hong heard that Yuan Shu was actually planning to give up Anping now, he persuaded loudly, "No, General, we have spent a lot of time and effort here in Anping, if we withdraw our troops like this, it will be equivalent to giving it back to Han Fu." ”

"And that Sun Ming was officially recognized by the imperial court, so we sent troops over like this, and if the name is not right, it will be taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives."

"The helper that Yuan Shao found may not be our enemy, and now that Sun Ming's strength is slightly stronger than ours."

After Yuan Shu thought about it, he said with a look of annoyance, "This is indeed a problem, so what should I do according to Yang Changshi's words." ”

"I think I should send someone to talk to Sun Ming to find out the situation and then make plans, and the general will take this opportunity to seize the peace first, and I am willing to personally send Sun Ming to share the general's worries."

Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's still Yang Changshi who can share the worries for General Ben, it's really my son's room, and when you come back, you will definitely set up a banquet to entertain you." ”

Han Hao jumped out at this time and said, "General, this matter is not appropriate, if we send someone over first now, it will be equivalent to being weaker first, then the land of Jizhou originally belonged to the general." ”
