Chapter 76 A gentleman can be bullied
Not to mention that Huo Jun and Liu Bei returned to the camp and brewed a divisive plan.
Tai Shici was drunk by Zhang Fei and returned to the camp, Sun Ben led the guards over to inquire about the situation, and said, "Ziyi, how is the situation?" Why don't you fight with the enemy cavalry and capture that Liu Bei to retreat from the enemy army. ”
Tai Shi Ci did not hide it, and said truthfully: "Xuande Gong, riding a horse around the camp and watching the village, although he has never ridden more than thirty or forty people, but he has that Yide to serve left and right, and his courage is unstoppable. Ci Nian was difficult to deal with, and Xuan Degong left again, so he had to lead his troops back. ”
Sun Ben frowned slightly, he had just seen Tai Shi Ci chasing Liu Bei, and the enemy would kill Congqi. And Tai Shi Ci not only did not come forward to fight, but also talked with his enemy general. However, this suspicious thought only flashed in time, and Sun Ben still trusted Tai Shici in general.
Tai Shi Ci saw that Sun Ben did not answer, and then said: "Please rest assured, if there is a chance next time, Ci will capture and kill Liu Bei." ”
"Good!" Sun Ben smiled and said: "Sun Luling's soldiers and horses will also arrive, and at that time, our army will meet the enemy and be outnumbered, and it will be victorious!" ”
Tai Shici arched his hand slightly and asked, "Dare to ask if Danyang soldiers and horses are there?" ”
Hearing this, Sun Ben sighed and said: "Wu Danyang is suddenly in office, although the new Taishou Sun Shubi (Sun Yi) is in office, but his age is not long, and it is difficult to mobilize soldiers and horses for the time being. ”
In the face of the attack of the combined army, Sun Ben was also speechless. The timing of their attack was too good, not only were there many thieves in the local counties, but even the local guards died of illness. Otherwise, with the courage of Danyang's soldiers and horses, and the reinforcement led by his friend Wu Jingtong, under the combined army of the four divisions, he will definitely be able to force back the combined army of Liu Bei and Liu Qi.
To tell the truth, Huo Jun strongly advocated sending troops to Jiangdong this year, for the sake of Wu Jing's death, but not because of how strong Wu Jing was, but because his successor was Sun Yi.
Who is Sun Yi, Huo Jun only knows that he is Sun Jian's third son, Zhang Zhao once recommended Sun Yi to succeed him in Jiangdong, but was vetoed by Sun Ce. This is not an important content, but the important thing is that Sun Yi will be assassinated by his subordinates while he is in charge of Danyang Taishou. Huo Jun didn't know the specific details, but he remembered that the result was that Sun Yi's wife Xu secretly planned to successfully counter the killing.
Danyang Taishou died of illness, it was already difficult to transfer troops, once it fell into political chaos, how could it be easy to mobilize troops and horses, and how could it be easy to transfer materials!
It can only be said that Huo Junwo's plan in the two years in Zhijiang is far from being as simple as he has seen before, and he dares to advocate Liu Bei to go down to Jiangdong, because he has seen the internal turmoil in Jiangdong in the next few years, which can be used as an invisible help.
Tai Shici was optimistic and said: "Although it is difficult to mobilize the soldiers and horses in Danyang, Sun Luling's soldiers and horses are coming, and the combined army of the three forces will defeat the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou, and the problem should not be big." Even if the enemy is not defeated, when Sun Qiuyu leads the sailors to the west and cut off the back road of the thieves, his army will be chaotic! ”
"Hmm!"
After a brief conversation, the two went back to the camp to rest.
The next day, it was hazy. A horse came to see Tai Shi Ci's camp with a white flag, and passed on Liu Bei's words, saying that he wanted to meet with Tai Shi Ci and talk about the war.
"Xuande Gong wants to see me, and he is already waiting outside the camp?" Tai Shi Ci said in surprise.
"Exactly!"
The attendant said: "General, Liu Yuzhou came to see the general, could it be that there was fraud in the meantime, and he wanted to set up an ambush to murder the general?" ”
Tai Shi Ci shook his head and said: "Xuande Gong has the name of benevolence and righteousness, he is not afraid of difficulties, sent troops to rescue Kong Beihai, and sent troops to Xuzhou to resist Cao Cao's atrocities. There are few people in the world who are so benevolent and faithful, and they will not harm each other when they see mercy today! ”
After a pause, Tai Shi Ci said: "Since Xuande Gong wants to see so, how can Ci not dare to go to it!" ”
……
At the same time, Guan Yu was also worried about Liu Bei's safety, and said: "Lord, although Ziyi talks about faith and righteousness, but he is an enemy, how can he easily go to see him." Even if you see it, you should wear armor inside, just in case. ”
Liu Qi also responded and said: "Uncle, Taishi is charitable, I am afraid that he will murder his uncle, and my uncle should be careful." ”
Compared with everyone's persuasion, Huo Jun was silent. For the time being, only Liu Bei knew about the strategy of dividing Tai Shici and Sun Ben, and if he wanted to see Tai Shici today, Liu Bei took the initiative to ask to see him, and did not disclose Huo Jun's news.
As for why Liu Bei didn't say it, the main reason was that he didn't want Huo Jun to bear the pressure, and it was extremely dangerous to let Liu Bei, the lord of the first army, go to meet the hostile generals, even if that person was Tai Shici, who was known for his faithfulness.
If something happens to Liu Bei, Huo Jun, as the proposer, will face the anger of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. For Liu Bei's invisible protection, Huo Jun was really moved.
Liu Bei pressed down with his hands and said with a smile: "Although Ziyi and I have not seen each other much, I know his faithfulness very well, and you should not persuade him." Today, it is a sign of sincerity to be able to see the horses. ”
As he spoke, Liu Bei tugged on the reins and rode away. Chen Zhi led a few followers to follow.
Out of the camp, Liu Bei saw Tai Shici wearing armor, and he was not afraid and greeted him directly.
Seeing this, the attendant beside Tai Shici said, "The general can use a bow and shoot Liu Yuzhou with an arrow." ”
Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci was furious, threw the horsewhip in his hand on the back of the attendant, and said, "Do you dare to trap me and be unkind? Xuande Gong came to see him lightly, but because of a certain faith, how can mercy cause harm! ”
After speaking, Tai Shici dismounted and took the initiative to take off his armor, then turned over and got on the horse, and came to see Liu Bei only in his underwear.
The two rode their horses to meet in the center and greeted each other.
Liu Bei looked at Tai Shici and sighed: "This Beihai has been parting for ten years. I never thought that I would see Ziyi in Yuzhang, and it was still in this military duel. ”
Tai Shi Ci saw that Liu Bei was more majestic than in the past, and he also said with emotion: "In the past ten years, the general has swept the world to save Xuzhou and resist atrocities. ”
After a pause, Tai Shici asked, "The general wants to see so-and-so, but for the sake of the war." ”
"Haha!"
Liu Bei laughed a few times and said: "Today I only talk about the past, not about the soldiers." ”
"Huh?" Tai Shi Ci said suspiciously: "Then the general sent people to talk about the war before......"
Liu Bei showed sadness and said: "If you don't say this, Zi Yi'an can be prepared." The world has been in turmoil for a long time, friends are gradually dying, if you don't see Ziyi now, when the two armies fight, I don't know what will happen! ”
Tai Shici was also silent, in this troubled world, he went from Liaodong to Beihai and then to Jiangdong, and saw too many deaths.
Liu Bei changed the topic, changed his tone, and said: "Ziyi knows how Wen Jugong (Kong Rong) is doing?" ”
Tai Shi Ci shook his head and said: "Ci went down to Jiangdong in the second year of Xingping (195), and I haven't seen Wen Jugong for several years. However, I heard that Wen Jugong has been appointed as the Shaofu, I don't know if there is such a thing? ”
Liu Bei sighed and said, "A year after Ziyi left, Yuan Tan raised troops to attack Beihai. Wenju's soldiers were defeated and left, and his wife and children were captured by Yuan Tan and ran to Xuzhou. The Son of Heaven was fortunate to be in Xuchang, and he was appointed as a master craftsman, and then he was promoted to Shaofu. ”
Tai Shici was also quite touched, and said: "Wenju is talented and ambitious, benevolent and righteous, and ambitious in appeasement, but his talent is rough and his wisdom is short-sighted. Now living in Xuchang, serving as the secretary, talking about puritanism, quoting scriptures, and avoiding the rebellion of soldiers, it is also a good thing for Wen Jugong. ”
This feeling of meeting with the old people made Tai Shici very relaxed. As the topic opened, the two chatted eagerly, sometimes laughing, sometimes sighing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After talking for about half an hour, Sun Ben, who got the news, came out of the camp to observe, seeing that the two of them talked for more and more time, their eyebrows became more and more frowning, and they had all kinds of worries in their hearts, and remembered the scene when Tai Shici couldn't chase and kill yesterday, and gradually felt uneasy in his heart.
After talking for another half an hour, when Sun Ben couldn't wait, Tai Shici and Liu Bei finally ended chatting and rode back to the camp on their horses.
Sun Bence immediately stepped forward to stop Tai Shici and asked, "What did Ziyi and Liu Xuande say before the battle today?" ”
Tai Shici still had a smile on his face and said: "Today, I only tell about the old things in Beihai, not about the military. ”
Sun Ben was suspicious and said: "Today, Liu Xuande sent someone to report that he would talk about the war, but he didn't say anything about military affairs?" ”
Tai Shi Ci shook his head and said truthfully: "Xuande Gong doesn't say anything, why don't I say it." Today, we are only talking about personal relations, and the two armies will fight, and Ci will not be soft. ”
Sun Ben secretly said in his heart, he had never fought before, but now he saw that Liu Bei first took off his armor, and he was kind and kind words, if you go down with an arrow, Liu Bei'an has a chance to live?
Although he thought so, Sun Ben didn't say it, only a little doubt in his heart. I only hope that his younger brother Sun Fu will lead the troops as soon as possible and join him.
