Governor please stay

"The old rule is that one person can only take a little. Tomorrow we will go home to farm for a day. The higher-ups also know about these things, so they turned a blind eye."

Why did the old pawn bring them on duty?Because this is a "welfare" for the defenders, they can "take a rest" tomorrow after defending the city, that is, go home and help in the fields.Then, if people from Meng County came to transport rations, they, the gatekeepers, would take the opportunity of "checking and verifying" and shake off a little leftovers from the army rations.

Qiu Daqian knew about this, and the generals below also knew about these things. They pretended not to know and did not stop them, because this could boost morale to a certain extent.

Whether Chen Qingzhi and Baipaojun can eat enough has anything to do with these salted fish wandering in Suiyang?

But the soldiers below complained and even mutinied, so it has a lot to do with them!The starting point for everyone to do things is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.So when you don't understand why the other party does a seemingly ridiculous thing, it can only be because you don't understand what good that thing is for them.

Suddenly, a food convoy appeared in the field of vision, which seemed to be larger than before.

"Captain Huo, here we come! I heard that sometimes they will bring some grain to Suiyang City to sell in exchange for salt. Is there any oil and water to fish here?"

A young county soldier asked in a low voice.

Since the gatekeepers can get riches, the people who transport grain can get riches even more.Suiyang City is a big city, and there are many daily necessities that are difficult to buy in the countryside!Especially salt!

I heard that someone specially hid the grain in the grain truck, and then sold the grain to the officers in the city.As for how those people will "sell the stolen goods", it is estimated that it will be given to the grain shop in the city.

As for where the necessities of life come from, it is also very simple, it must be a rich family in the surrounding area of ​​Suiyang.Although the state of Wei is now experiencing great difficulties and is almost on the verge of subjugation, it does not prevent the wealthy families from eating and drinking and even earning a lot of money.

Then the defenders of Suiyang City, from Qiu Daqian to the generals below, everyone has a share, they just do not talk, and act as "protective umbrellas" silently.

In this way, the dark line becomes clear.

Chen Qingzhi and the Baipao Army who were fighting bloody battles in the north of Luoyang did not know that when they were fighting against Er Zhurong's vanguard army, Suiyang was full of dogs and dogs, and there was a miasma of smoke from top to bottom.

Do they think that when they captured Suiyang, they should have slaughtered Qiu Daqian and his gang?

This is a typical tight front and tight rear.But having said that, the corruption and laziness in Suiyang is also a matter of Wei Guo.Chen Qingzhi and the others were from Liang State, and the White Robe Army was also Liang State's Northern Expeditionary Army.

What do these bird things have to do with them?At that time, they will still pat their butts and leave, as if there is no good in caring about these crap things.

It's hard to say what Yuan Hao, who doesn't feel sorry for his father, will think.

"Stop, you guys are a bit unfamiliar, have you just come to Meng County to serve as a soldier?"

The old pawns stopped the food convoy. In fact, they were on duty for the first time, and they were all other people before.The reason for saying this is that it seems that the shed where the other party transports grain is not empty.

It's all here, can you go empty?

Even if a pretty lady walks by here, even if they can't get on or touch them, they will use their thieves' eyes to watch each other from top to bottom and enjoy it!Then he said a few words of teasing before letting the other party go.

Most of the things in this car are here to trade with some high-level officials in the city.Maybe these people are just running errands.But, what does it have to do with those little ghosts who watch the city gate?Even if you can't grab it, it's okay to go up and touch it and grab it in your hand.

The old pawn knew that when he was guarding the door, many people did this.

"You want to check? What is this empty car checking for?"

The one who spoke was the leader of the team, who looked very burly and even imposing.

"Who knows what's hidden here...is it fierce fire oil? Hahahahaha!"

The old soldier laughed presumptuously, and the county soldiers around him also laughed together.You won't let the inspection?Hehe, it's also your fault that the verbal war hit Qiu Daqian.

As long as it is checked, I grab a handful of food and put it in my sleeve, you come to bite me?

The old pawn's calculations are very sophisticated. This kind of wild goose plucks hairs. In fact, the team that transported food before turned a blind eye to it, which is almost an unspoken rule.

"you sure?"

The burly captain seemed a little embarrassed, even a little stunned. He couldn't believe that these soldiers guarding the goal were so bold.

"If you are sensible, let us check it out. If you don't, then you are the one..."

The old pawn was suddenly stuck, forgetting who the defenders in the Suiyang area were ordered to block.

A recruit next to him reminded him in a low voice, "It should be called Liu Shou."

"Oh, that's right, if you don't know people, you were sent by Liu Shou to attack Suiyang, um, that's it. If you don't let all of you get out of the way, there are only four or five of us, how can we still get a lot? So search, I pooh!"

The old pawn didn't seem to intend to act with the other party at all, and the young county soldiers who had joined next to him not long ago felt a little shy, making themselves like the corrupt officials in those dramas.

It's actually not that bad.

"What Liu Shou, is it called Liu Yishou?" Corrected the leader Zhuangshuo dissatisfiedly.

Does this matter?It doesn't matter what that guy's name is, the key is that you can get rich today!

For a while, the old pawn felt that the opponent's brain circuit was a bit strange.Sighing and shaking his head, he swaggered to a box car, lifted the straw mat that protected him from the rain, and saw a gleaming sharp knife pressed against his neck.

"Invite all the people under your command to come and watch in the car, and don't make any noise."

……

Liu Yishou issued an appeal in Rencheng to punish the crime of rebellion, calling on all the princes of the Wei state (including Er Zhurong, of course) to crusade against the puppet regime in Luoyang, and to "bring Yuan Hao to justice."

As a result, the world shook, but there were very few people who responded. Most people, especially the members of the Hebei family, including the Hebei Gao brothers, were all waiting and watching.Only Er Zhurong and Qingxu's Li Yuanzhong and others also issued appeals one after another, promising to send troops to respond.

Of course, Er Zhurong needless to say, earlier sent Er Zhuzhao to Heyang Pass to take the lead.However, Li Yuanzhong and others only responded verbally, and did not mobilize troops.

Although there are not many responders in the world, this matter still has a great impact on Yuan Ziyou.At least, his situation has improved a lot, from being under house arrest in a courtyard to being able to walk around in Jinyang City at will.

Since it was in response to Liu Yishou's "crime of conquest of rebellion", Yuan Ziyou, the nominal son of heaven, cannot be given to Guan Xiaoheiwu, which is unjustifiable anyway.

Er Zhurong's so-and-so and so-and-so, anyway, a lot of people came to say, at this time, we should be more polite to Yuan Ziyou, serve him better, and not lose to Liu Yishou, Er Zhurong It was also very troublesome, and in the end, he "followed the advice" and listened to the opinions of these people.

In fact, Er Zhurong is also under great pressure now. Whether it is Yuan Ziyou's side or his generals, many people are suggesting that he send troops to Luoyang.It's not like sending Er Zhuzhao to fight the front, but a large army to attack, it depends on the battle.

"Oh, they are all a bunch of ignorant rats!"

In the study room that day, I heard that some people under Gao Huan's command wanted to send troops to Luoyang, and encouraged Gao Huan to come forward, and Er Zhurong couldn't swallow his breath.

Apart from the fact that now is not a good time to send troops, Er Zhurong still has one more important thing to do!

Murong Shaozong's mother was born as a descendant of the Erzhu family.This time, Er Zhurong sent Murong Shaozong to the various ministries north of Bei Xiurong to move reinforcements!

Er Zhurong could see very clearly that the white-robed army under Chen Qingzhi's command had already become an army soul and was unstoppable.With 7000 people, you think you can handle it with 2 people. This is not how wars are fought.

Er Zhurong was worried about the strength of his troops, and even felt that in Hedong and other places north of Luoyang, he was afraid that all the big families would secretly communicate with Yuan Hao!Counting on the soldiers and horses here is tantamount to nonsense.

He planned to summon the Qihu tribe on Bei Xiurong's side, and after gathering their forces, they would fight Chen Qingzhi in a decisive battle.

During this period of time, the conflict between Chen Qingzhi and the white-robed army and the complacent Yuan Hao will only grow bigger and bigger!

Under the ebb and flow, who will win and who will lose seems to be predictable.

Just as Er Zhurong was contemplating what to do next, his nephew Er Zhu Tianguang pushed open the study door with a pale complexion, handed Er Zhurong a bamboo tube sealed with wax paint, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Clan, Heyang The pass was lost, and Beizhong City was also captured by the white robe army, and Er Zhuzhao retreated to Hanoi County with a small number of remnants, waiting for reinforcements."

Ok?

Er Zhurong was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Er Zhu Tianguang in a daze.

"Uncle Clan, the situation is urgent, the letter is here, and the messenger is outside the study door."

Er Zhu Tianguang was a little anxious, Er Zhu Zhao's defeat was too fast and unexpected.They originally thought that even if they couldn't hold Heyang Pass, Beizhong City should still be able to hold it, but they didn't expect Er Zhuzhao to lose Beizhong City in the first place, and they hardly gave Er Zhurong any chance of rescue.

"Don't be impatient, I'll read the letter first!"

Er Zhurong said in a deep voice, and waved his hand to signal Er Zhu Tianguang to leave the study.

Chapter 212 Don't think you're a chicken and won't beat you

One wave rushed to Heyang Pass, and the second wave rushed to Beizhong City. Er Zhuzhao fled in embarrassment, and half of the three thousand elite were killed or injured... Looking at the detailed battle report written by Er Zhuzhao, Er Zhurong was a little suspicious of life.

This joke is not funny at all!

Er Zhurong thought for a moment, walked out of the study, and said to Er Zhu Tianguang who was guarding the door: "Go and send someone to call He Bayue...uh, call He Liuhun too.

That's all, you call Dou Tai, Hou Mo Chenshun, all those who are above the leader, to my house. "

Er Zhurong sighed. Whenever there is a major event, it is better to discuss it with the generals to find out the bottom line.Originally, I thought that Chen Qingzhi's wave could be dealt with casually, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult.

"Okay uncle, nephew, let's go!"

Erzhu Tianguang didn't dare to trust him, and left in a hurry.When all the generals arrived, it was already the beginning of the festivities. After returning from Luoyang last time, military discipline had become quite slack. Although Er Zhurong noticed it, he did not intervene too much.

"Er Zhuzhao suffered a disastrous defeat at Heyang Pass. Here is the battle report. Please circulate it first."

Er Zhurong said to the generals in a deep voice, the atmosphere in the hall was slightly dignified, under the light of the torches, everyone had different expressions on their faces.

Some people feel like facing a big enemy, some people feel relieved, and so on.This battle report has a certain personal nature, and its credibility should be much higher than that of scouts or official battle reports.

After all, there are some truths that Er Zhuzhao may tell Er Zhurong in a private letter, but they will never be written in the publicly transmitted battle report.

The letters were circulated in the hands of one person after another, and the complexions of those present who read the letters also changed again and again.Although Er Zhurong had already told them the final result, the whole process contained more details and was more intriguing.

To put it simply, Er Zhuzhao was defeated before he exerted much effort, even he was still a little puzzled as to how he was defeated.

The letter turned around and returned to Er Zhurong's hand. His eyes swept over the faces of all the generals under his command. Except for Murong Shaozong who went to Bei Xiurong to rescue the soldiers, there was basically no shortage of senior officers under his command.

"I've read the letter too, so let me know what you think."

Although Er Zhurong said this to everyone, his eyes were fixed on He Bayue all the time.In his eyes, He Bayue was still better at fighting than Gao Huan. Gao Huan's strength was mainly in certain political operations, such as persuading the enemy to surrender.

In the real tough battle, Er Zhurong secretly observed that Gao Huan didn't seem to be doing very well.

There was silence in the lobby, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Obviously, Liang Guo's Northern Expeditionary Army was very strong, and Er Zhu Zhao lost his temper after beating Er Zhu Zhao.You know, the soldiers and horses under Er Zhuzhao's command are considered the elite of the elite.They were all stunned when they went, and everyone present secretly figured in their hearts that they probably would have to kneel if they went head-to-head with the trilogy.

"He Bayue, tell me, what do you think of this Liang army?"

As expected, no one said anything, Er Zhurong pointed to He Bayue and asked.

"The last general thought that this Liang army invaded like the wind, and it was very difficult to deal with. It is understandable to break through the Heyang Pass, but they followed General Erzhu's team to attack Beizhong City... Such soldiers and horses, such fighting Fa, I have never heard of it."

He Bayue said in a deep voice, his words made many people present nod their heads frequently.

In fact, it is not unusual for Er Zhuzhao to lose Heyang Pass, but he immediately lost Beizhong City. It reminds people of how Yuan Tianmu was defeated by Chen Qingzhi in the first place. It seems that this style is very familiar!

Of course, apart from Chen Qingzhi and his white-robed army, it seems that there is no similar opponent in this era.

Good at going head-on, good at short-distance bursts, good at chasing and fighting, and very good at fighting rhythm... Such enemies are not easy to deal with.

Not hearing any valuable suggestions, Er Zhurong waved his hand helplessly, signaling He Bayue to step aside.

"Let the white-robed army win the battle that should be won, and let them win the battle that should not be won. When the moon is full, you will lose. Liang Jun's breath has reached the peak, and it cannot be higher. It is just right to send troops now!"

Er Zhurong patted the table in front of him heavily and said.

All the generals looked at each other, wondering if Er Zhurong was too hasty.

"All the ministries go back and prepare. The army will leave in three days. Well, He Liuhun will stay here for a while."

Er Zhurong pointed at Gao Huan and said.

calls me?

Gao Huan, who had been deserting all this time, looked at Er Zhurong in a daze, then cupped his hands and said, "Here."

After all the generals had left, Er Zhurong called Gao Huan to his side, and said in a low voice, "You deserved the most credit for defeating Ge Rong last time. This time, I also have a difficult task for you."

Er Zhurong patted Gao Huan's small arm heavily.

"Uh, may I ask the governor, what is the mission?"

Gao Huan asked hesitantly.

"Don't worry, it's what you are good at anyway, this is not a place to talk, follow me to the study."

……

In the signing room at the head of Suiyang City, Qiu Daqian looked at the enemy soldiers wearing the same military uniform as his side without a word. He didn't understand why he didn't know anything, so he became a prisoner, and Suiyang was captured. Woolen cloth?

What is wrong here?

He didn't even know who the other party was from.

"Your subordinates said that you are Sui Yang's chief general Qiu Daqian?"

The middle-aged general with long beard on the opposite side looked at him with great interest, Qiu Daqian nodded slightly and said: "I am exactly Qiu Daqian, I dare to ask the general who is..."

"Nowadays the world is in chaos, and being weak is a crime. Don't think that because you are weak, others will not beat you."

The enemy general in front of him said meaningfully.

Look at this is also called human words?Qiu Daqian was ridiculed and didn't know who to talk to. He argued aggrievedly: "Your army has descended from the sky. Before I understand what happened, Suiyang City was captured by you. Your skills are inferior to others. , convinced."

"That's all, my subordinate, Yu Jin, is leading the army under the tent of Governor Liu. The defense of Suiyang City is so lax, you, the general, cannot escape the blame."

Yu Jinde taught Qiu Daqian a lesson about how to behave cheaply.

Qiu Daqian was aggrieved by how brave the defeated general was, but he couldn't argue, so he kept silent.

The good thing is that Jin also has no interest in humiliating him. He held back his soldiers and asked in a deep voice: "Let me ask you, why are the defenses in Suiyang and the surrounding area so lax? What's the point here?"
