Chapter 661: The Decisive Battle of Yanzhou (10)
In Qingzhou, after Liu Bei wrote a letter to the ministers of Yanzhou, he saw little effect. and another plan. Let Zongzheng Liu Biao, on behalf of the imperial court, write letters to the princes and kings of Dongping, Jibei and Rencheng. Let them cooperate with the king in the fiefdom and set things right.
Since the rebellion of the Seven Kings at the time of Emperor Xiaojing, the local princes and kings have celebrated the New Year with Wang Xiaoer, and the year is not as good as the year. The power to appoint local officials, the power to govern the feudal state, and the financial power were all taken over to the central government. Although there are occasionally some princes and kings who are not very comfortable and always want to do things, most of the princes and kings have been honestly entertaining themselves in the palace since then, and no longer interfere in politics and the people, so as to ensure the safety of the lineage.
Of course, although the princes and kings no longer do political affairs, as Liu Han's clan, they still have a huge appeal in the local area. Like during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were princes and kings such as King Chen who gathered the people and led the soldiers and horses to protect the county.
The historical King of Dongping and the King of Rencheng, when Cao Wei was in the Han Dynasty, were removed from the royal position and demoted to liehou. And Liu Zheng, the king of Jibei, was the worst, because he had no heirs, and a few years later, after his death, the kingdom of Jibei was abolished.
The princes and kings who have no real power have no way to deal with the princes who dominate the territory. If you have no soldiers or generals, it is already very good to be able to keep the palace safe in this troubled era. When the Yellow Turban thief army was in trouble, I don't know how many clans were poisoned by the thief army.
The princes and kings of the world actually have a good impression of Liu Bei. If nothing else, at least Liu Bei is continuing the Han Dynasty and supporting the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty is really exhausted, and these people will become the clan of the previous dynasty and be elected. Even if he can save his life, his privileges as a nobleman will be gone. Liu Bei kept the country of the Han Dynasty, so they, as well as their descendants, could continue to be rich and prosperous.
So after receiving Liu Biao's letter, Liu Kai, the king of Dongping, and Liu Tuo, the king of Rencheng, quickly made their own choice. Who are their own people and who are foreign ministers, they couldn't be clearer in their hearts.
Soon, Cao Ren received a report that there was a rebellion in Shouzhang and other places, and then, Xiahoudun made an incident where the grain and grass were burned. In the rear of Shouzhang Naizhang County, there is a problem here, which is not trivial.
After Cao Ren found out, he didn't dare to slack off, so he sent his deputy general to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to go out to quell the rebellion.
The deputy general received Cao Ren's order and led his troops to Shouzhang. Zhang Fei, who had already gotten the news, passed on Ma Chao to move to the vicinity of Shouzhang to find an opportunity to annihilate this Cao army.
Ma Chao, who was cruising between Jiyin and Dongping, was trusted, so he led the army to Shouzhang, and joined the righteous army here, and then lurked outside Shouzhang City under the leadership of the guide.
Deputy General Cao Jun led his troops to hurriedly pass Wuyan, and continued to march towards Shouzhang, seeing that there were dozens of miles more, and they would reach the boundary of Shouzhang. Turning the official road, he suddenly saw the Han army coming out from the side of the road.
The deputy general was shocked, knowing that he was in ambush, and did not dare to fight with Ma Chao, so he led the army back and left. Jun Sima hurriedly came to report again: "General, there are enemy troops behind you." How is it good? ”
How is it good? The adjutant general glanced at Jun Sima, raised his gun and shouted: "Come with me, kill out!" ”
Ma Chao blocked the official road before and after, and then charged the battle with cavalry to break Cao's army. As soon as Cao Junfu came into contact, he felt that he couldn't resist it, because the main general wanted to retreat, so everyone fought to flee and had no intention of fighting. In this battle, only the heads were killed and the blood flowed like a river. After the fact, 800 were beheaded and more than 3,000 were captured.
Ma Chao was overjoyed, so he returned to the teacher and stayed in Shouzhang.
Shou Zhang Ling welcomed Ma Chao in and provided grain and grass. After Ma Chao rested, he asked, "Does the general have any intention of Tun Shou Zhanghu?" "Shou Zhang Ling is a relative of King Dongping, this time he listened to the instigation of King Dongping, and his head was hot and he did this big thing. It didn't take long to regret it. I was afraid that Cao Jun would come over and take his own life. It's just that the thing has been done, and there is no way back, so I have to hold on.
Now the Cao army came, but the Han army retreated from the Cao army in a battle. Suddenly, Shou Zhang Ling's heart was full of excitement again. It seems that I made the right choice.
Of course, it would be nice to keep this general. Shouzhang also has a guarantee. At that time, even if the battle is defeated and Cao Jun comes in, he can be said to be forced.
Ma Chao naturally didn't know the crankiness in Shou Zhangling's heart, and when he saw Shou Zhangling asking, he said: "If there is no military order, I should be temporarily stationed here." ”
Shou Zhang was overjoyed, so he clapped his hands at that time and sent two beautiful maids up for Ma Chao to enjoy.
Ma Chao said: "How can you enjoy yourself in the army? ”
Shou Zhang Lingdao: "The general is not in the army at this time, but in the city, so what's the matter." ”
Ma Chao was silent, Shou Zhang Ling finally stopped talking, and finally retreated quietly. Ma Chao finally left two daughters at night, and they were warlike all night, and they washed silver guns with blood.
Xiahoudun was in Ningyang, and Rencheng was responsible for supplying grain, but as a result, Changyi's grain was transported to Rencheng, but it was burned in the middle of the road. Xiahoudun was furious, so he sent people to Rencheng to investigate thoroughly.
As a result, when you arrived at Rencheng, you can check it no matter how you want to check, but there is no flaw, Rencheng does not leak, and only pushes the matter to the thieves.
When the news reached Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun's eyes flashed, and he said hesitantly: "What a boldness!" ”
The master next to him said: "This matter is quite strange. ”
Xiahoudun smiled angrily and said, "What's weird, it's just that some people in Rencheng see that the situation is not good, and they want to sell better than Qingzhou." ”
The main book said: "Why did the general say this, according to the people who came back, Ren Cheng seems to have no suspicion." ”
Xiahoudun said: "There is no suspicion, it is the biggest suspicion." Ren Cheng did everything well, just thought there was no flaw, hehe, I have an army escort, where did the thieves eat the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dare to provoke the army? If it is a Han army, how can it show itself as a bandit? ”
So he sent a letter to Cao Ren and asked him to beware of changes in Dongping Kingdom.
As soon as the information of the two families was compared, they knew that something was wrong, and there was a problem within Dongping and Rencheng. The military's intelligence is not dry either. Soon, the officials of the two places, along with the information of their ancestors for eight generations, were almost dug up and sent to the desks of Cao Ren and Xiahoudun.
At this time, when I look at it again, the context is clear and clear at a glance.
Cao Ren snorted and said, "It seems that the kings are not willing to be lonely." ”
Cao Ren thought for a moment and ordered: "Go and cut down the lieutenant of the Dongping Palace." ”
The Prime Minister of Dongping and the King of Dongping are a pair of contradictions. I don't think there will be much collusion, of course, even if there is, Cao Ren can't be good at cutting two thousand stones. As for the lieutenant of the palace, the main thief and other military affairs, the rank is like the county lieutenant. The rank ratio is 2,000 stones. If there is a rebellion in the country and cannot be controlled, the marching law will be cut down. It just happened to deter the king of Dongping. lest he think that the Han army is powerful, and he can't do anything about him.
If you really anger yourself, what can you do if you kill a prince and a king?
