Chapter 57: Guanzhong Sisai 3
And now Bian Chengcheng, the owner of the dock fort, listened to the thunderous sound in the distance, and the whole person was a little silent.
"I don't agree, my Bian's grain didn't fall from the sky, but rushed up from the river. Where to say what to the king of Han will give ......"
"Yes, head of the house. The king of Longxi used soldiers like a god. Now it must be rushing back to Guanzhong. At this time, once we take out the grain and grass to fund this Han king, and when the time comes, the imperial court Yao Qin's soldiers and horses have been beaten and asked, what should we do?"
Many Bian elders were gossiping, but they all refused to agree with the opinion of the head of the family, Bian Cheng, and sent a thousand stones of grain and grass to the Han army to buy peace.
1,000 stone of grain and grass, that's 100,000 catties, it's really not a small amount. Even if the Bian family is rich and rich, and if he wants to take out so much at once, it will hurt his muscles and bones......
"It is rumored that this Han King has great powers and is best at summoning thunder. Listen, this thunder is coming from the direction of Tongguan...... Even Chang'an can't hold it in front of this Han king, so what is it to wait for a dock fort?
Do you have to wait until the king of Han is angry and comes to attack with his troops, and then you are willing to hand over the grain?"
"Then you don't have to pay so much, I heard that the Yu family also gave a hundred stone ......."
Liu Shengzhi led the troops over this way, and naturally he didn't bring any grain and grass at all. All the 6,000 stone grains and grass snatched from Yunju Temple were left in Chang'an.
Wherever the army passed along the way, most of the dock forts were very long-sighted, and they would take the initiative to hand over some food and supplies, which could be regarded as buying peace.
However, this Bian clan is very close to Tongguan and is considered a landlord, don't these people understand? If they don't take the initiative to bleed, then the Han army will have to help them bleed.
Bian Cheng sighed in his heart: "The Yu family is far away from here. And we are too close to Tongguan. If the king of Han is stationed in Tongguan, there is a lack of grain and grass. Guess what he's going to do......"
At this point, even the most stupid person understands. This grain must be handed over and paid. If you don't pay it, you have to pay it.
As for the matter of settling accounts after Hou Qin came back, he couldn't take care of it.
In troubled times, this is the case. Man is a knife, I am a fish!
"Tomorrow, I will personally bring grain and grass and ask to see the King of Han!" Bian Cheng made up his mind.
On the second day, this Bian Chengcheng personally escorted the grain and grass to the bottom of Tongguan.
In the troubled times, the war is endless. Bian Chengfei is the kind of person who doesn't understand the situation at all, but on the contrary, he is still very careful. Even the hundreds of private soldiers of the Bian family are still well-known elites in this area.
Now when I came to the Tongguan place, I saw the vigorous and high-spirited soldiers, and I was slightly surprised in my heart.
This kind of aura usually only appears in the kind of elite army that wins all battles. With such a short army in Later Qin, the only one who can show such a spiritual outlook is the elite soldiers of his own clan led by Yao Shuode.
Now, these Han soldiers in front of them also have this kind of spirit. What is even more rare is that the spirit of these soldiers is high-spirited but unassuming. There is also a kind of discipline that is beyond words.
This is what Bian Cheng couldn't figure out!
Yao Shuode's own army is elite, but his spirit is very flamboyant. In other words, the military discipline is naturally extremely poor, like a bloodthirsty wolf.
But these armies in front of them are different. Although these people are not pleasant, they are by no means arrogant, on the contrary, they are very quiet.
This made Bian Cheng a little incomprehensible. How can an army that does not have the wildness on its body be elite, dare to fight hard, and not be afraid of life and death? And to it was added awe.
Bian Cheng came with so much grain and grass, so he naturally saw Liu Shengzhi soon.
Count it up. This should be Liu Shengzhi's first family to take refuge in Guanzhong.
"Villain Bian Cheng, knock on the King of Han!" Bian Cheng was led all the way to a courtyard in the city.
Bian Cheng had been here before, and it was the residence of the original Tongguan guard.
However, now, as if with the change of owner, the temperament of the whole house seems to have changed abruptly, becoming majestic and calm. It was as if this was just an ordinary rich man's house, and suddenly it became a deep palace compound.
In such an atmosphere, Bian Cheng's heart became trembling when he was very empty, and he bowed to the ground, but he didn't dare to come out.
"No need to be polite, get up. Liu Shengzhi's gentle voice came, which immediately made Bian Cheng's heart settle down.
He bowed again, and even took advantage of sitting up to peek at Liu Sheng.
But he saw Liu Shengzhi wearing a military uniform, with a calm demeanor, not angry and arrogant. There is also a kind of evil aura on his body that seems to have just come down from the battlefield and has not completely faded.
This made Bian Cheng's heart suddenly sudden, and he honestly lowered his head.
"I heard that you are quite proficient in the art of war?" asked Liu Shengzhi.
"I don't dare to say that I am proficient," Bian Cheng said honestly: "Compared with this elite soldier in the hands of His Majesty, those private soldiers such as me are just a rabble!"
"Oh, I was about to make you an official position. But there is no one in the world who is more noble than Mingjue, since you are so modest, it makes it difficult for me to do it!"
It was Bian Cheng who weighed the pros and cons and came to visit Liu Shengzhi, and vigorously assisted and sent so much grain and grass.
But in fact, there are countless hearts about whether Liu Shengzhi can hold Tongguan or not.
At this time, it can be regarded as a higher official position given by Liu Shengzhi, but who can know how long this official can be done?
I think like this in my heart, but this kind of mentality can't be revealed at all.
Thinking of Liu Shengzhi's question, Bian Cheng could only smile bitterly: "The king gave it, I don't dare to resign." The king of Han really intends to be a vassal official, and the minister will never dare to resign!"
"Hahaha!" Liu Shengzhi laughed, this Bian Cheng is really interesting.
However, anyway, he was already preparing to seal him as a high-ranking official, and he didn't expect this person to be much more outstanding than he imagined.
"Bian Cheng listens to the seal!"
"Yes!"
"This king will let you be the Taishou of Hongnong County!"
"King Xie!"
Although he had already guessed that Liu Shengzhi's hand would not be too small, the official position of the Taishou of Hongnong County still shocked Bian Cheng.
As a native of Hongnong, it is simply too ...... to become the Taishou of this Hongnong County Shine brightly...... If Liu Shengzhi can hold Tongguan!
"This king asked General Yang Lefei to assist you and manage the baggage ...... for this king's soldiers and horses."
"Yes!" Bian Cheng's heart shook again, and he asked cautiously: "Dare to ask General Yang Lefei?"
"Naturally, it is from the Hongnong Yang family, and he is the younger brother of Yang Yan, and now he is a general under this king!"
Hongnong Yang's!
This Bian Cheng was shocked in his heart, but it was indeed so!(To be continued.) )
