Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 74

When Zhang Yi arrived in Shu County, he came to call up the army. It was already May, and the food for each family was almost exhausted.

Zhang Yi's side is similar, but he still has [-] shi of grain, enough to make him start another war.

Ten thousand shi of food is enough to feed his army of more than 2 for several months.As long as others don't burn the food and grass, he can completely support him to capture Yuzhang.

At this time, there were not many people in Yuzhang County. The prefect of Yuzhang was Sun Ben, and Tai Shici was the only general under him.

Faced with such a lineup, Zhang Yi didn't care at all.Although Tai Shici is very fierce, he is definitely not enough in front of him. In terms of bravery, Wei Wentong, Fu Youde and Tai Shici are not far behind. In terms of commanding troops, Li Jing alone can crush the heroes.

Gathering 8000 people, Zhang Yi wanted to attack Peng Ze directly, but because Di Qing hadn't returned, Zhang Yi was worried about the situation in Shu County, fearing that Li Shu or the Sun family would come back.

Li Shu was imprisoned by Zhang Yi, because he had many connections in Jiangdong, Zhang Yi did not kill him directly.Zhang Yi is not very sure, he doesn't know if he can subdue this Li Shu and let him use it for himself.

But this Li Shu is also an ambitious person, and Zhang Yi has caught him. Zhang Yi really can't guarantee whether he can lose his ambition.

So Zhang Yi is not in a hurry to recruit Li Shu, and if he wants to endure him, there may be some possibilities.

Di Qing hasn't come back yet, but he is actually in big trouble, and this big trouble lies with Lei Xu.

Lei Xu was originally Yuan Shu's general and had a good relationship with Chen Lan, who was destroyed by Zhang Yi.However, Lei Xu was originally from Lujiang County, and he came from a powerful family. He had more than 5 people under his command, and these 5 people were all his relatives.

This makes it difficult for Di Qing, you say attack Lei Xu!Some people will definitely be killed, but once they are killed, it will increase the difficulty of recruiting the 5 people.

You must know that in ancient times, the sense of identification with relatives was much stronger than in modern times. They were all brothers fighting tigers, and father and son went into battle. This was the situation.

If Di Qing wanted to kill, he had to kill all of these 5 people, or it was best not to kill them.

Di Qing is not a murderer, he really wants to recruit Lei Xu to surrender.And what about Lei Xu!He also intends to surrender, but he is worried about Di Qing's promise.

Di Qing made a lot of promises to Lei Xu, and even went to Lei Xu's house alone to express his sincerity.But Lei Xu just didn't feel at ease, he had to think about his family.

Di Qing dragged on here for half a month, and had no choice but to write a letter to Zhang Yi.

After Zhang Yi received the letter, he was also a little embarrassed. Lei Xu's matter was really not easy to handle.He called together a few talented people around him, Li Jing, Wang Xiang, and Chen Jiao who was still in Shu County.

"The more than [-] people under Lei Xu's subordinates are all Lei Xu's relatives. Di Hanchen intends to recruit Lei Xu. Lei Xu also intends to surrender, but he doesn't trust Di Qing. What should I do?"

Wang Xiang said: "Lei Xu attaches great importance to relatives. When Yuan Shu was weak, he separated from Yuan Shu and gathered relatives together. He did protect relatives by doing so. Neither Liu Xun nor Li Shu could do anything to him. .If the lord wants to recruit Lei Xu, he must rest assured."

Chen Jiao asked, "How can you rest assured? If you let him bring his relatives with him, what's the difference between recruiting and not recruiting?"

Zhang Yi also said: "I will definitely not let Lei Xu do this. His relatives will definitely be split up. If he doesn't agree, I can only use thunderous means."

Wang Xiang said: "My lord, there are too many relatives of Lei Xu, and the involvement is too extensive. Forced to use force, I am afraid it will cause panic in the county."

Zhang Yi nodded, it is indeed true. If these 5 people were killed, everyone in Lujiang County would probably think Zhang Yi was a murderer, right?

Li Jing laughed at this time: "It's easy at this time. My lord can recruit Lei Xu as a general and 5000 of his relatives as soldiers. In this way, Lei Xu will definitely agree to surrender, even if the lord asks to separate Lei Xu's family. , Lei Xu will not have too many opinions."

Chen Jiao asked, "Lei Xu still has a lot of soldiers in his hands, what should we do if there is a disagreement?"

But Zhang Yi nodded and said: "This strategy is very good. If Lei Xu has another disagreement, it will be easier to deal with it."

Chen Jiao and Wang Xiang didn't quite understand, and Zhang Yi didn't mind being clearer, "It's much easier to deal with 5000 people than 5."

Only then did Chen Jiao and Wang Xiang's heart tremble, knowing that their lord is not a soft-hearted person.But I'm also thankful, because people who are kind-hearted and soft-hearted can't gain a foothold in troubled times.

Lei Xu was wandering in the west of Wan County, and Zhang Yi attacked Pengze County, just passing through Wan County.Therefore, Zhang Yi directly led the army and first stationed in Wan County.

Fu Youde led the Wanxian officials out of the city to meet Zhang Yi. After Zhang Yi arrived in Wanxian, he sent his letter to Di Qing along with his seal and ribbon.

Di Qing received Zhang Yi's letter, and immediately went to Lei Xu after reading it.Lei Xu received Di Qing, "What's the matter with Di Taishou looking for me?"

Di Qing said: "My lord has been appointed by the imperial court as General Yi Chenghou of Zhendong. Today, my lord sent a letter saying that the general can be appointed as General Jianyi, and 5000 people can be selected from the general's relatives as trilogy, and the rest will be arranged by my lord. Around Chaohu Lake, they are divided into Shuxian, Longshu, Hefei, Junqiu, Juchao, Linhu and other places. These places have newly opened up fields, as long as they go there, each person can be divided into three acres of good land, and they will be exempted from tax for three years."

Lei Xu stood up from his seat in shock, "Is this true?"

Of course Lei Xu couldn't believe it. There are more than 5 relatives in his family, and each of them is divided into three mu of fertile land, which is 15 mu.

Di Qing said: "My lord said that people will continue to open up land this year, and we may need the help of young and strong members of the general's relatives to try to open up all the land before next year's spring plowing."

After hearing this, Lei Xu was relieved.He's not a fool either. If Di Qing still said what he said before, Lei Xu would definitely not believe it, and would even suspect that Zhang Yi might want to trick him out and then do something to him.

What Di Qing said later was in line with the actual situation, and Lei Xu was relieved.Although it may be necessary to open up wasteland by yourself, this proves that Zhang Yi really wants him to belong to him. 15 mu of fertile land was such a big promise that Lei Xu felt flattered.

Di Qing took Yinshou out and said to Lei Xu: "General, Yinshou is here. If the general agrees, we will be a family."

Lei Xu looked at the seal on Di Qing's hand, and his eyes became hot.He still attaches great importance to official position, otherwise he would not defect to Yuan Shu.

Now that his relatives have been settled, and he has also secured a high-ranking official, he naturally doesn't want to occupy the mountain as king, and he doesn't want to follow in Chen Lan's footsteps.

"Lei Xu is willing to surrender!"
