Vol 5 Chapter 86: But the case of bandits and thieves in the mountains (10)

Liu Bei's injury looks serious, but it's not fatal. When Xu Fu rescued him, he was in a coma because of excessive blood loss. After being rescued by Xu Fu and returned to the lieutenant's mansion, Xun Zhen heard the news and rushed to visit him. Bandaging the wound, pouring a patch of medicine on his stomach, he woke up leisurely.

"Xuande, how did you do this?" Before meeting the thief, Liu Bei was looking forward to the future with great ambitions, but he didn't expect to be beaten down by hundreds of refugees, and he almost "died before his ambitions were fulfilled". Ashamed and ashamed. Originally, due to excessive blood loss, his face was pale, but now he was ashamed, and his cheeks flew into two blushes. Xuankang followed Xun Zhen, saw his face turn red, and was very happy. He praised the sore doctor and said, "Junzhen is also a genius doctor! With only one medicine, Gong Cao's face turned bloody! "

Hearing these words, Liu Bei became more and more ashamed. He sighed and answered Xun Zhen's question, saying, "Oh, I met a rioting refugee on the way to patrol the township." "The refugee from Xiqu Township?" "Yes." "How many refugees are there in total?" As soon as Xun Zhen got the news, he sent people to the barracks to give orders, and ordered Xu Zhong to immediately dispatch his troops to Xiqu Township to control the refugee camp. Because the time is still short, Xu Zhong's return has not been sent. "Five or six hundred people." "Five or six hundred people make trouble? Xuande, you will have good luck if you don't die." Five or six hundred refugees are in chaos, and Liu Bei has only forty people under his command. It is normal for the entire army to be destroyed. The only thing that surprised Xun Zhen was that all forty soldiers were killed, but only Liu Bei suffered a minor injury. The luck of "Uncle Liu" is also really good.

"The lieutenant didn't know. The reason why Bei was lucky not to die is because the refugees showed mercy." "Oh?" "Didn't Bei personally deliver medicine to the refugees a few days ago? Bei also delivered it to the refugees in Xiqu Township. Decoction. They remember to prepare this well, so they didn't kill the killer, but saved their lives." "That's it!"

Xun Zhen said with a sigh, "You plant a good cause, so you get a good result." "Bei heard a piece of news." "What news?" "Bei didn't know at first that these refugees wanted to save a way to survive, but after being injured, they fell to the ground. Pretend to die. When these refugees came to strip the soldiers of the righteous soldiers and Bei's armor, Bei heard them say 'how did they kill Xian Gong Cao', and then they knew that they didn't want to kill me. At the same time, they listened to their chat, They said that it turned out that the Yellow Turban remnants were the ones who incited the refugees to rebel this time!" "How do you say this?" "Aren't there many refugees who escaped the epidemic from other counties these days?

Many of these refugees are remnants of the Yellow Turban Road. They infiltrated into various refugee camps and incited the refugees to riot. These rioters in Xiqu Township were instigated by a remnant of the Yellow Turbans. "Xuankang said in a voiceless voice," Huh? So, it is possible that the refugee camps in the remaining counties and townships will also break out into chaos? Liu Bei sighed again and said, "Xiangjun ordered the county officials to isolate each refugee camp, and the refugees were not allowed to enter or leave. The refugees in each camp were full of resentment. Under the provocation of the other battalions, it is very likely that chaos will also occur. "

Xunzhen immediately ordered Xuankang: "Uncle Ye, you immediately go to the barracks outside the county to pass our army orders, order Junqing, Boqin and others to split up and leave the camp, and immediately go to the places where the refugees gather to search and inquire whether anyone who has recently arrived, Anyone who is suspected of the Yellow Turban Daoist Party will be taken down and sent to the county temple." Xuankang complied with his promise and hurried out of the house. Several people were coming into the house and almost collided with Xuan Kang. Xun Zhen looked and saw that the people who came were Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong. The three of them learned that Liu Bei was injured and had just returned from outside the county. "Xuande, you can rest in peace. Your injury is not serious, and you should be able to get better in a few days. The information that you just said about the infiltration of the Yellow Turbans into our county is of great importance. I am going to Xiangjun now and ask him to order the lifting of the ban. ." Lifting the ban is naturally the lifting of the ban on "isolated refugee camps".

It is now mid-February, the weather has warmed, the typhoid fever will gradually subside, and it is time to lift the ban on the quarantine camps. After nodding to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong, Xun Zhen left Liu Bei's house. When he went out, he looked back into the room and saw Guan and Zhang bowing down to the ground, and they were making a big salute to Xu Fu.

This ceremony is of course to thank Xu Fu for saving Liu Bei. In the original history, Xu Fu and Liu Bei were congenial, and it is estimated that this life is impossible. But now that Xu Fu saves Liu Bei, it can be regarded as a return to the original fate. It is also for this reason that Xun Zhen did not punish Xu Fu for leaving the house. After relaying what Liu Bei said to Liu Heng, Liu Heng hurriedly agreed to Xun Zhen's request to "lift the ban" in horror.

Returning to the lieutenant's mansion from the prime minister's mansion, just after arriving in the hall, someone from Xu Zhong's party arrived, but it was Gao Su. Gao Su replied to Xun Zhen: After the hundreds of rioting refugees stole the clothes, armor, weapons, and war horses of Yi Cong and Liu Bei, they went straight to the mountains in the west without stopping. Xu Zhong had already ordered Xin Ai to bring his headquarters. The cavalry set off in pursuit. Going over the business, Gao Su sighed and stopped talking. Seeing his pretentious appearance, Xun Zhen said angrily: "What else is there to say? Say it if you want!" "Xunjun, to say that Liu Gongcao is really a benevolent, righteous and generous person, but he is a little bit in the military. . . . " "A little something?" "A little layman.

The forty righteous soldiers he brought are the elites of our army. If commanded properly, even though there are only forty people, they are enough to defeat the four hundred strong enemies. Those rioting refugees have neither armor nor weapons, they have been hungry for days, have little strength, and are not skilled in battle formations. All killed in action. Alas, Xun Jun, what a pity! "I don't know if Gao Su was a pity for the forty followers, or it was a pity that Liu Bei was defeated. Xun Zhen had long thought of what he said. Just as Gao Su said, all of the forty people brought by Liu Bei were in the army. If the selected veterans of a hundred battles are able to command effectively, not to mention five or six hundred refugees, even thousands of refugees cannot be wiped out. Liu Bei's luck is good, but his commanding ability is indeed not very good. Liu Bei didn't have superb military talent. If he used his soldiers like a god, and had the ability of Han Xin, wouldn't Xun Zhen be like sitting on a needle felt every day?

Liu Bei was in bed to recover, and Xin Ai led his cavalry to pursue the fleeing rioters. This matter has not been dealt with, a letter came from Luoyang. The letter was written by He Yong. This was the first time He Yong had written a letter to Xun Zhen, and when he received the letter, Xun Zhen was quite surprised. But after unfolding the letter and seeing the content, he was not surprised. The letter said: Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou were powerful and seemed to want to invade Sanfu from the south. Some people in the court suggested that it would be better to order Huangfu Song to return to Chang'an to guard the garden mausoleum. Chang'an was the capital of the former Han Dynasty. The tombs of the former Han emperors are all nearby. This is the tomb of the ancestors of the Han family. It must be ensured that it will not be damaged by the rebels. He Yong said in the letter that although the imperial court has not made a final decision, considering all aspects, it should be imperative for Huangfu Song to be transferred from Jizhou.

"Considering from all aspects", He Yong did not clearly say which aspect he considered from ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But even if he didn't say it, Xun Zhen could still guess. There can be many reasons for Huangfu Song to leave Jizhou, but the most fundamental reason can only be: the power of the state shepherd is too great, and the court cannot allow Huangfu Song to sit in the position of Jizhou shepherd for a long time. As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are good officials. He Yong's purpose in writing this letter is obviously to remind Xun Zhen to prepare in advance.

Xun Zhen was Huangfu Song's favorite general. As soon as Huangfu Song left, Xun Zhen lost his biggest backer in Jizhou. In the past six months, it seems that Huangfu Song did not give Xun Zhen any direct help, but Huangfu Song was the greatest help to Xun Zhen in Jizhou. There was Huangfu Song who was the shepherd of the state here, and all the officials in the middle of the country and the officials in the prefectures and counties were very respectful to Xun Zhen. As early as the end of last year, Xun Zhen guessed that Huangfu Song would be transferred, but at that time he guessed that the court would transfer Huangfu Song to Liangzhou to quell the chaos, but he did not expect that the court was preparing to transfer Huangfu Song to Chang'an.

But this is also understandable. Huangfu Song is already a "high-strength shaker", and his credit is so great that he can only be rewarded with the title of Jizhou Shepherd. If he is sent to Liangzhou to pacify the chaos, he will make another contribution. What should the court do? manage? When the credit is too great to be rewarded, he can only kill, so he is simply transferred to Chang'an. First, the prefectural shepherd has great power and cannot be placed for a long time. Second, with him in Chang'an, he can deter Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, and not only protect Yuanling, but also the safety of Gyeonggi and Luoyang. Thirdly, it can be regarded as security The meaning of the hero. In response to the fact that Huangfu Song would be transferred away, Xun Zhen made two decisions, one was to clean up the disobedient nobles in the county, and the other was to actively prepare to go into the mountains to attack thieves. Now it's finally time for Huangfu Song to be transferred away. The most disobedient and powerful family in the county, the Yang clan, has been killed by Handan Rong's plan, so the only thing left to do is to fight thieves.
