Chapter 249: Gambling on Life
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's brothers get along, and they are bound to achieve a great feat.
But after that, you still have to make more preparations.
Liu Bei first asked Zhang Fei to rectify the trilogy, and he himself wanted to report these things to his senior brother Gongsun Zhan, after all, he still belonged to Gongsun Zhan's battle sequence.
Of course, multi-point support is the most important thing.
Gongsun Chan is not in the big tent, and a general like him can't stay in the big tent. At this time, Gongsun Chan was training with his white horse servants in a well-established horse farm.
After Liu Bei came, he saw Gongsun Zhan, who was wearing a martial arts, stabbed at the thatched man with a long pole without a head, stabbed and let go. After that, the other white horses attacked in turn and trained to assassinate.
As soon as Liu Bei came, Gongsun Zhan saw it, he took out a horse from the ground and threw it to Liu Bei:
"Senior brother, come, go and practice."
Liu Bei smiled and shook his head:
"Senior brother, I came to you to discuss important matters, so you better rest and rest."
Gongsun Zhan was surprised, and he couldn't imagine that this junior brother would discuss anything important with him, but he didn't think much about it and got off the horse.
Gongsun Zhan asked the righteous servants to continue training, and he took Liu Bei to the side of the resting place.
A pergola canopy has been erected here, some seasonal fruits have been laid out early, woolen blankets woven by the Wuhuan people are spread on the ground, and several plump concubines are kneeling on the wool blankets with clay urns in their hands.
Gongsun Zhan was drenched in sweat, borrowed a sweat towel from Hu Bing's hand and wiped his body indiscriminately, then lay on his side on the woolen blanket, pillowed his head on the lap of the plump concubine, and took a jar of honey water and drank it.
Liu Bei also took a glass of honey from the hands of his concubines, and did not squint at those concubines, but only concentrated on sipping honey.
Gongsun Zhan's hand slid to the plump and round above, squinted and asked:
"Xuande, what is so important, I organized a small banquet in the evening to celebrate your merits in winning the thief leader, and these concubines will also participate."
Liu Bei smiled bitterly:
"Senior brother, your kindness to me is really incredible, but it's a pity that I can't participate in this banquet."
When Gongsun Chan heard this, he frowned:
"What, what's something I don't know?"
"Well, just now I went to the deputy marshal to talk about the merits, and the deputy marshal gave me another military task, and ordered me to go to a place to rescue a person."
Gongsun Zan felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and hurriedly asked Liu Bei to explain this matter in detail.
After that, Liu Bei told Gongsun Zhan everything in the big tent from beginning to end, and he also wanted to see his senior brother's opinion on this matter.
Gongsun Zhan heard this, pondered for a while, and said a piece of his secret to Liu Bei:
"Xuande, do you know how I got out of business?"
This Liu Bei really doesn't know, then a few of them and their teacher Lu Zhi will settle in the Guishi Mountain. But after a few years of study, the Nanban rebelled, and the teacher was recruited by the imperial court to be the Taishou of Lujiang. After that, the brothers and sisters went their separate ways.
Then within a few years, Liu Bei heard in his hometown that Gongsun Zhan had entered the office, promoted filial piety and honesty, and became the governor of Liaodong.
Liu Bei is a native of Youzhou, so he naturally knows the status of Liaodong as the governor of the country.
The reason why Liaodong vassal state is called a subject country is because it is attached to the outside of the Seychelles, and it is allowed to be accepted as a subject country. In other words, almost all of the subjects of Liaodong were attached to the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribesmen. ….
And the initial purpose of its establishment was to counteract the increasingly prosperous Xianbei by the Han Court. In the entire northern part of the Han Dynasty, the commander of the Liaodong vassal state, the captain of the Wuhuan school, the general of Du Liao, and the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang cooperated to form a collective decision-making group on border affairs, and jointly divided and disintegrated Xianbei and directly participated in military strikes.
At that time, General Du Liao set up Wuyuan County, Captain Wuhuan set up Shanggu County, and Liaodong Shu State set up Liaodong, these three were lined up on the northern line to jointly defend the northern part of Hanting. In case of rebellion by the Xianbei, Wuhuan, Xiongnu and other ethnic groups, these three will cooperate with each other to send troops to quell the rebellion.
And the long history of the Shu State in Liaodong is a martial art of six hundred stones. And because he is on the front line of the conquest of Xianbei, this position
It is the easiest position to make meritorious contributions, and it is the best position for their border warriors.
At first, Liu Bei knew that his senior brother was qualified for this position, and thought that he had reconciled with the family, and their Gongsun family had served in the Liaodong subject country for several generations, where the branches were lush and the trees were bigger and deeper, and it was just a family tradition for Gongsun Chan to do this.
But now that Gongsun Chan asks like this, there is still a hidden secret. So Liu Bei sat down and listened to his senior brother's teaching.
Gongsun Chan pinched a jujube and recalled:
"I have two noble men in my life. One is my father-in-law, and the other is Liu Gong Liu Taishou. I was sponsored by my father-in-law to enter the Lu Shimen, and later I was appreciated by the then Taishou Liu Gong and became a planner. Every year, I have seen a lot of Kyoto scenery in Beijing, and the pattern is a little longer. But later, Liu Gong was recalled to Beijing for an incident, and then he offended a certain big man in Beijing, and Liu Gong was demoted to Rinan."
As he spoke, Gongsun Zhan stared at Liu Bei and asked:
"Do you know where Nizunan is?"
Being stared at by Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei shook his head and signaled that he didn't know.
Gongsun Chan muttered:
"yes, I didn't know where it was before. Later, when Liu Gong was sent to the palace newspaper of Rinan, I asked someone, and it turned out that Rinan County was in the southernmost part of Dahan, and when I got there, even Dari looked north."
"You know what, Xuande. At that time, there were many people who guarded Liu Gong's favor up and down the county temple, and I was just one of them. Before, everyone swore that they would follow Liu Gong, and wherever Liu Gong went, we would follow our father's business, hang the seal and go to the ribbon, and follow all the way. But when Liu Gongzhen was about to be demoted to Rinan, he broke his promise, and I was at a loss for what to do."
"But suddenly ......"
Gongsun Chan stretched out a finger and tapped his heart:
"Suddenly I thought about something, when everyone is running away, what if I was the only one who stepped forward? If I follow Liu Gong to Rinan, what will I gain? I might die. No, not possible, but almost. You think, I grew up in a border area and went to the southernmost part, not to mention miasma, even the water and soil will kill me. But what else might I gain? It's the name!"
"So the choice in front of me at that time, or I was the same as my colleagues, when Liu Gong went to Rinan, I didn't hear or see it. But I'll stumble in that position like a philistine. Either I will go to Rinan with Liu Gong, or I will not become famous or I will not die."
"Xuande, if it were you, what would you choose?"
Liu Bei has been listening very carefully, he understands that this is the senior brother who is teaching him experience, and even telling him the most critical mental method of the upper position in this era. ….
Liu Bei did not hesitate:
"I will follow Liu Gong, the eldest husband can't eat five tripods in life, and he has to cook five tripods in death, how can he die in bed from old age."
Gongsun Chan slapped his thigh and exclaimed:
Okay, Xuande, I didn't misread you. I've known we're in the same league for a long time. Yes, I chose to follow Liu Gong to Rinan. On the day of departure, I went up to the North Side Mountain in Kyoto with Liu Gong to pay homage to our ancestors, and I still remember Liu Gong's words at that time."
"He used to be the son of man, but now he is a minister. There are many obstacles in the south of the country, and I am afraid that I will not return it, and I will resign from my ancestors."
Reciting the sacrificial words of the year, Gongsun Chan could not forget it for a long time.
He said to Liu Bei with a straight face:
"Xuande, this is the first time I feel the loyalty of a human servant. As ministers, you and I should be loyal to the country, but we must be able to bear the grievances. The so-called thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace. You'll learn this later. For example, I followed Liu Gong south to Rinan, but the pardon document from the middle court arrived, and Liu Gong was pardoned, and I was cited as filial piety for this righteous act, and then prospered all the way."
"Xuande, what you do today is the same as I did back then. This road is very dangerous, but if you do it, you will have a worry-free future, and if you can't do it, you will be loyal to the country. How you choose, it's all up to you. As a brother, I will support you. As for that sect member, you don't have to think about it, just now I learned that Xingyang Ling was scolding that sect member, saying that he had killed all the prisoners, and now the city wall is repairing and no one can be found. Such a person as a member of the sect will damage yin virtue and will not achieve good results."
Liu Bei silently digested Gongsun Zhan's words, and after a long time, he suddenly asked
One question:
"Senior brother, when you chose to follow Liu Gong south, did you expect him to be pardoned?"
This sentence was beyond Gongsun Zhan's expectations, as if he knew Liu Bei for the first time, he looked at Liu Bei in surprise, and finally confessed:
"Xuande, you really show off. That's right, I chose to go south that day, which was to bet that the Liu Guild would be pardoned. I can't say much to you, but what I can tell you is that with my relationship at the time, I can't be sure that Liu Gong will definitely be pardoned. But as long as there is the slightest possibility, I will also bet on it. In the final analysis, if you don't gamble your life, how can you start a business."
Liu Bei understood, he solemnly bowed to Gongsun Zhan, and said:
"Senior brother, I want to borrow someone from you."
------------------
"Hot girl, what's this place called?"
At the same time, Ding Sheng, the first general of Taishan's military achievements, was walking outside an abandoned Pitang with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He complained to one of the scribes beside him:
"Dumbfounded, why is this place called Jinbaopi? Where birds don't poop, there's such a rich name."
Ding Sheng was stunned by Chen Qin of the Yingchuan Chen clan who joined the Taishan Army in the first battle of Yingyang. was called so by Ding Sheng, Chen Qin was not annoyed, but replied:
"Have you heard of the captain, Yanmen County?"
Ding Sheng nodded, joking that their Ding family was the character of Ding Chunqiu, Yanmen County would not know?
Then Chen Qin said:
"Then Yanmen County can see the base goose as the gate? Can Jinseong-gun see the MPF for the county? Can the county in the clouds be seen deep in the clouds? Can Ninan-gun look north at the sun?"
Ding Sheng understood, this surnamed Chen was mocking himself. Hot girl, these readers are really bad, and they all beat around the bush when they scold, but ..........
"Isn't the sun in the north of Ninan-gun?"
Ding Sheng's curiosity overwhelmed revenge in the end, and asked Chen Qin about this.
Chen Qin didn't expect Ding Sheng to ask this, and said:
"The big day of Nichinan County is the same as us, and it looks to the south."
Ding Sheng does not follow:
"How do you know? Have you ever been to Nisna?"
"No, I saw it in books."
"Is the book right?"
"Then have you seen a big sun in the north?"
"Why is that called Nisna?"
……
In this way, Ding Sheng relied on his exquisite skills to boil Chen Qin without any temper. Chen Qin said that Ding Sheng was right, the great day of the south of the day is in the north.
Ding Sheng pulled back a game, Xizizi didn't talk about this topic, and clicked a soldier to ask:
"How many Han soldiers are trapped behind that?"
Hu Bing replied:
"Back to the captain, I can't count the specifics, the establishment of the Han soldiers has been disrupted, and there is no flag. But in terms of size, there are also 800 soldiers."
Ding Sheng nodded, it was difficult for him not to be high-spirited now, because he had risen again. Before, he was the number one general in the left captain's department, but now that the army has expanded, he has really been promoted to a new captain, and he is also a senior officer who commands 2,000 troops.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters is in the can.]
Say:
"It's okay, just let them go. In this way, the Han soldiers from Xingyang can be mobilized to help."
Chen Qin was puzzled:
"Isn't Xingyang besieged by He Yi and his troops? Why are there still troops coming to help?"
Ding Sheng blinked, and made a sudden realization:
"Oh, tell me about this busy, I haven't shown you the military report just delivered. Ah Dan has already found out the latest situation in Xingyang, so He Yi has been defeated. A cavalry army of thousands of people of the Han army rushed to the city of Xingyang, and He Yi was finished."
Chen Qin was really angry now, he was so angry that he pointed at Ding Sheng:
"Captain, why can't you hold the military newspaper and not show it to me? You need to know ......."
Ding Sheng laughed and said:
"The main book, I didn't deduct it, I just forgot it."
As he spoke, Ding Sheng took out a book from his pocket and handed it to Chen Qin, with feathers hanging on it.
Chen Qin took it, looked at it all, and for a long time, secretly pondered:
"This Ding Daqi is really a general, and he immediately took advantage of the situation when he got the military report. Awesome."
Chen Qin didn't speak, Ding Sheng thought he was annoyed, so he said:
"Chief, we still have a long time to come, but we can be sincerely united. Don't look at the fact that there are not many people in the pond, but there are many people in the Han army with names and surnames. Most of the troops in Xingyang will be rescued. But when the time comes, let's send another reinforcement, isn't this military feat just coming?"
Chen Qin asked rhetorically:
"Since we entered Henan County, we have used several siege points to send reinforcements, and the Han soldiers will still be tricked?"
Ding Sheng was choked by these words, and was also stunned, and finally said unconvinced:
"If you don't come, you won't come, and when the time comes, we'll eat the Han soldiers in the pond."
After speaking, Ding Sheng strode towards the front line, he really didn't want to stay with this Chen Qin for long.
Please call me Mr. Chen
