Chapter 50: Surrender Alone
Liu Bei continued to read the file, Ba County rebelled, Taishou led the troops to quell the rebellion and was defeated and returned, and suddenly the whole county was in chaos, and there was no way to report it to Yizhou Assassin Shi and let him find a way. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yizhou Thorn Shi was also frightened, bastard, you will report it to me when the thief is ready, isn't this a trap for me. However, the officialdom is probably bullying and not hiding it, and he can understand the history of Yizhou's assassination. Taishou hid it from him, and he continued to hide it from the court. So he mobilized the soldiers of several nearby counties, trying to converge together to quell the thieves. As a result, Hanzhong Taishou took his men and horses to the border of Guanghan County, turned around and went back, and almost killed Yizhou Assassin Shi. But people have also sent people to spread the word, I can't help the boss of the assassination, there are also traitors in our Hanzhong County, I can't sit back and ignore my own territory and help Ba County quell the rebellion, right?
Although the history of the state ministry is heavy, he is an inspector after all, and he usually mainly relies on reporting and exposing to obtain political achievements. In peacetime, even a county guard will be cautious and kind to each other, for fear of being caught by the assassin Shi. Because the recital of the assassination does not have to pass the test of the three dukes, it can go straight to the emperor's imperial case. If he was assassinated like this, he would have no chance to save it. Not everyone has a bold man like Tai Shici who can help him regain the music in the capital. This time, Hanzhong was too guarded by the bird, and the bird was not stabbed in Yizhou, so he brought his own troops back to Hanzhong. Because Taishou naturally rejects the history of assassination, not to mention that he knows that after this rebellion, no matter what the result is, the history of Yizhou assassin will be replaced, and he has the responsibility to defend the territory, there is nothing wrong with it, so he is afraid that he is a bird?
In this way, Yizhou Thorn Shi led the uneven army of Qianwei and Guanghan counties along the water, and wanted to go to the rescue, but was learned by the barbarian thieves, intercepted halfway, and after a scuffle, the officers and soldiers saw that the situation was not good, and dispersed in a hurry. Seeing the defeat of the army, Yizhou Assassin Shi knew that he was powerless to return to the sky, so he had to choose to report to the imperial court. If you don't report it, you won't be able to report it to the county guards below. Only then did fate lead Xiao Ying and Liu Bei to come.
After Liu Bei read it, he paid Xiao Ying all the dossiers for reference. On the second day, everyone was summoned to discuss the matter, and now all the counties in Hanzhong are peaceful, Qianqian is sparsely populated, and the thieves do not come, so there is nothing to do, and there are many thieves in Guanghan and Ba County, and they burn, kill, and loot all evil.
Xiao Ying asked the three county guards: "I intend to mobilize a large army, first quell the Guanghan rebellion, and then enter Ba County along the river." How many troops, food and grass can you send, and who will you send? When can I get to Ruoxian? ”
The three counties looked at each other, and it was also appropriate to level Guanghan first, otherwise it would be difficult for Bajun to get in, and even if he went in, it would be difficult to come out. They all nodded. After thinking for a while, he reported the number of elite soldiers he could levy, the amount of grain and grass stored in the government treasury, and the list of generals. Ba County Taishou didn't come, he just wanted to come and couldn't come, and he had to preside over the overall situation in Ba County, this time it was the county Cheng, I heard that it would take ten days to gather the army, and then the whole army set off, I don't know when I can get to Ba County, I can't help crying: "Zhu Gong, Ba County is broken, the thieves are huge, if you delay for a long time, Jiangzhou will be broken, please Xiao Gong and Zhu Gong have mercy on the innocent people of Jiangzhou, and quickly send troops to seek peace!" He cried sincerely, the family and relatives are in Jiangzhou, there are thieves on all sides outside the city, one person runs away, and if a family wants to run, it will be difficult.
Xiao Ying said in her heart, at this time, you know that you are in a hurry? What did you do earlier? When the old man settles down the place, the first thing to free up is to clean you up! On his face, he helplessly helped up Ba Juncheng, and soothed him with good words: "Don't panic, you are in a hurry, the old man is more anxious, the old man is the emperor's grace, and he will work tirelessly to try to break the thief as soon as possible and return Yizhou to a clear and clear world!" In military affairs, you can only do it step by step, how can you be greedy? blindly tried to be fast, but was defeated...... "finally persuaded the county and the three counties to guard: "Gentlemen, please quickly mobilize the army to our place, and do not delay for a moment!" And the people answered the command.
For a few more days, bad news kept coming, and Qianwei heard that he was going to fight the barbarians, and the people did not flee and fled to the mountains. I have heard that the barbarians who rebelled this time are two feet tall, as strong as an ox, and eat human flesh raw, how can this be beaten? In Hanzhong, they always say that the military rations are not enough, and they don't know if they are in deficit or because they are embezzled. Guanghan is okay here, under Xiao Ming's personal attention, everything is going well, but Ba County is not very good, the thieves besieged Jiangzhou again, and this time, they almost entered Jiangzhou City.
Ba Juncheng heard it, and ran to Xiao Ying every day to cry and cry, which made people feel upset. Xiao Ying didn't know if he was annoyed by him or if he was really anxious, after reading the file with Liu Bei again that day, Xiao Ying said to Liu Bei: "Xuande, the situation is urgent, I don't want to sit here anymore and wait for the army, the old man wants to go to Ba County in person, and say that he will surrender to the traitor!" ”
Liu Bei was so frightened by Old Man Xiao that he almost jumped up, what kind of joke was he making, and he wanted to enter the thief camp alone and say that he would surrender to the barbarian thief? Old man Xiao, you don't want to play like this, you want to play a single knife to the meeting, but in case you have a mistake, what should I do? Before he left the division, he lost his coach first. It's strange that Cao Jie, a bastard, didn't take the opportunity to plant the crime on my head!
Liu Bei's mind was in a flash, and he hurriedly persuaded him: "Xiao Gong, don't do it!" How can it make sense that the barbarians don't understand the number of courtesies, and they have the upper hand? If Xiao Gong has any mistakes, then the Yizhou rebellion will become a cake, so how can I go back to Beijing to fight the saint? Let's wait for the army to arrive, and then I'll wait for the plan! ”
Xiao Ying said firmly: "Otherwise, Xuande, Ban Yu has been obedient to my Han for hundreds of years, and there has never been anything wrong, and now it is also because of the forced by the cool officials, and the rebellion is also a last resort." I expect that the barbarians are still human minds, if I take the orders of the court, say it in person, teach it with benevolence and righteousness, and make an appointment with grace and faith, such a big thing can be determined. It can also save military funds for the imperial court, and there is no need to waste money and food in vain and the lives of my Han family's sons! ”
Liu Bei wanted to speak again, but Xiao Ying obstructed: "Xuande, I will decide!" Needless to say! Xuande, I entrust the military affairs to you, since I entered Ba County, you can lead the army and follow, thinking that I am backing up. When the barbarians hear this, they will not dare to harm me! Xuande, the old man is all tied to you! After saying that, he actually laughed.
Liu Bei looked at this stubborn old man, his mouth moved, but he didn't know what to say. I had to bow silently to express my acceptance. In my heart, I secretly thought, Old Man Xiao, I will definitely guarantee your personal safety!
On the second day, Xiao Ying summoned Guanghan, Hanzhong, and Qianwei to discuss the three counties and make their decisions. The three counties were too stunned. This is too dangerous, if the imperial history is trapped in Yizhou, they will not be able to explain. At that time, the imperial court asked you so many generals, can't you protect a royal historian? What do you want to do? How do they answer? said that Xiao Zhongcheng went to die by himself, how could he stop it?
So everyone persuaded and persuaded, including Juncheng. Ba Juncheng came to cry every day, just to ask Xiao Ying to urge the local counties to hurry up and not delay, he didn't think that Xiao Ying would do this. Nima, who dares to enter the enemy camp and say surrender? He is not afraid of death?
In fact, where is Xiao Ying not afraid of death? There is only one human life, and they will be afraid of death, but Xiao Ying thought about it carefully. If it continues like this, Bajun will really be crippled. Second, no matter who fights whom, the barbarians and Han people are all people under the rule of the Han Dynasty, and they all pay the imperial grain and national taxes to the imperial court, and he will feel sad if he is killed or injured. Unlike Xianbei, a foreigner, who died and pulled down. In the end, what made him firm in this idea was that the barbarians were not completely unreasonable, as long as the conditions were negotiated, they could be convinced. They won't do anything again. After all, they also have a family, a land and a house, unlike other races, who only know how to loot for a living. Xiao Ying has done a lot of homework before and after he came, whether it is Nanxiyi or Nanban, there are not a few examples of rebellion and being said to surrender by county officials. He didn't believe it, what the county could do, he couldn't do in the imperial history?
The persuasion of the crowd was ineffective, so they had to stop. Xiao Ying gave Liu Bei the right to supervise the army after that. The public Taishou heard Liu Bei's name early, although he admired his reputation and integrity, but after all, Liu Bei was weak and his reputation was low, just for Yilangzhong, who was willing to be convinced. It's just that Xiao Ying insisted on this, and everyone had to rely on it. In my heart, I thought, Xiao Yuan, you are so stubborn and don't listen to people, and it depends on your results, if you succeed, if you ...... Hmph, I don't have to read your book.
Liu was ordered by Xiao Ying to come out to talk to everyone. Everyone was disheartened, just thinking that when the army arrived, let you Liu Xuande toss, at most we will be responsible for your logistics support, and the rest, you are in charge, we want to see, you are famous, and how much real ability do you have? So one by one, they didn't say the right thing, and they said goodbye one after another after a few perfunctory words.
Liu Bei came back after sending him off, looked at Xiao Ying and smiled bitterly: "Gong Xiao, you roasted the kid on the fire, and the envoys were full of disapproval, Gong Xiao, can you see it clearly?" ”
Xiao Ying stroked his beard and laughed, and said, "Xuande, if you don't have the means, how can I trust you with a large army?" Don't let the old man down! The last sentence was very serious.
Liu Bei knew that Xiao Ying was pressing everything, and he lifted his spirits and said: "Xiao Gong, please try it, Liu Bei will not let Xiao Gong down!" ”
Xiao Ying looked at this heroic young man, and sighed in his heart that it was good to be young.
Liu Bei asked Xiao Ying to take Liu Ke to escort him, but Xiao Ying insisted on refusing, he knew that Liu Ke was Liu Bei's younger brother, and he was intimate, and there was no one around Liu Bei, so how could he take Liu Ke with him. I will only take with me fifty of my guards. Liu Bei persuaded and persuaded again, but to no avail, so he had to obey.
On the second day, Xiao Ying led fifty guards and went down the river with Ba Juncheng. Officials of all sizes in the county came to send them off. Whether you like him or not, whether he is right or not, at least, at this moment, there are still many people who admire his courage and pray that he can return safely.
After returning to the camp, Liu Bei called Liu Ke, and said so, half a day later, Liu Ke reluctantly left the camp and led twenty people out of Ruo County, not knowing what to do.
Three days later, 6,000 elite soldiers from the three counties gathered in Yuxian County, and Liu Bei was neatly dressed and beat drums in the camp to gather generals.
