Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 412 The expected deviation

   Under Puzi City.

  Puzi County is located at the junction of the high loess **** and the plain. Outside Puzi City, there are a lot of cattail grasses, all over the mountains and plains, even some folded areas grow, but the city is not named after cattail grass.

   According to legend, there was an ancient sage here, who once served as the master of Yao and Shun, and taught many things. According to ancient records, this ancient sage wears a rough garment made of cattail grass all the year round, so people call him Puyi, or Puyizi, and the place where this ancient sage lives in seclusion is called Puzidi.

  Later, Chong'er also came here, stationed troops and gathered the population, and later Confucius also came here, and the audience gathered when he gave lectures.

It used to be a large and prosperous county town, but now it looks dilapidated and decayed. Even the yellow land outside the city, which was covered with cattail grass, was eroded by wind and rain, after all, mottled ravines were exposed, like the old faces. wrinkles.

  Puzi County is no longer in the political and economic Sanjin area as it was during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. Instead, it has gradually moved away from prosperity in the long history and has become a marginal county that no longer attracts people's attention.

  But the loess rammed city wall, the gray-black bricks and tiles still bear his own deep dignity.

  Fei Qian handed in the letter from Wang Yi, governor of Hedong County, and was soon invited to the county government office, where he met the county magistrate and county lieutenant of Puzi County.

  County magistrate Chen Rui, courtesy name Daoyuan, from Yingchuan, should belong to the offshoot of the Chen family, county lieutenant Zhang Lie, courtesy name Shucheng, from Fenyang, who is considered a local in Bingzhou.

  For the sake of safety, Fei Qian didn't reveal his identity when he first delivered Wang Yi's letter. He only came in the name of an envoy, and after meeting and confirming that there were no other variables, he really revealed his identity.

Chen Rui and Zhang Lie met with Fei Qian again, and invited Fei Qian to sit at the head, but Fei Qian refused. After all, now is not the time to show off. The most important issue is not the position, but as soon as possible It is necessary to obtain soldiers to solve the problem of the Baibo army.

Puzi County belongs to Hedong County, and this kind of lease between counties is a violation of the imperial court's system. It is a mutual grant in private. The imperial court will not recognize it, and it is certainly impossible to support it. The binding force of the treaty can only be observed by the county guards themselves...

  In other words, in the words of later generations, it is a private loan that is not protected by law, and there is no IOU written, and it is purely a verbal agreement.

Therefore, Fei Qian was worried whether Wang Yi would hand over the ruling power of Puzi County to Fei Qian without reservation and incomparably happy according to the conditions negotiated at that time. After all, when Wang Yi wrote the letter, Bai Bo The army had already left for the south, and Wang Yi himself was in a hurry to go to Xiangling to sit in town, so the letter was written in a hurry, and it was sealed and sealed. Fei Qian didn't know what Wang Yi wrote in the letter.

  Because the letter cannot be opened.

  The paper of the Han Dynasty is very fragile, and there will be creases after being easily folded. What's more, even if you avoid the wax and take out the letter, so what? It's not like Fei Qian has a professional with super high imitation skills anytime and anywhere, who can take out a carrot and engrave it anytime and anywhere.

  If it is an ordinary official document, because it has a fixed style and can be used, it can be faked to some extent, but such a letter, handwriting and words must be more difficult to imitate.

  Besides, Fei Qian and Wang Yi are more or less allies and allies. Pretending to be fraudulent is justified when used on the enemy, but used on the friendly army. If something goes wrong, this reputation is not good...

  After exchanging pleasantries, because the situation was urgent, Fei Qian didn't go around too much and started to get down to business.

"Wang Shijun, did you explain that Pu County is temporarily borrowing Shangjun?" Fei Qian first confirmed it. After all, this is the most important thing. As long as he explained this matter, he would have a reason to call the soldiers and horses of Puzi County, otherwise he would not be named. By the way, it is impossible to transfer to soldiers and horses.

  Chen Rui hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said, "There is indeed something to say."

   Feiqian put down a stone in his heart, gave a little thumbs up to Wang Yi, a modest gentleman, and said, "How many soldiers are there in this city?"

As for the situation involving the military force in the city, it is natural that the county lieutenant in charge of the city's defense and the suppression of the surrounding bandits is relatively clear, so Zhang Lie replied under Chen Rui's signal: "There are currently 250 sword and shield fighters in the city, and 700 spearmen. People, 150 archers, 50 cavalry, 1,800 auxiliary soldiers, and 400 corvees.”

   "Fifty cavalry, 100 swords and shields, 500 pikemen, 100 archers, 800 baggage soldiers, and supplies are prepared together. When will they be ready?"

  Zhang Lie was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There are all materials in the public warehouse, and it only takes one day to prepare..." Zhang Lie said that he had finished, but he glanced at Puzi County Magistrate Chen Rui.

  Chen Rui arched his hands and asked, "I wonder if Envoy Fei has a royal scepter, or... Yiwen?"

In the Han Dynasty, only tiger talismans could be used at first, but due to land problems, peasant uprisings continued to occur frequently, especially the barbarians in the frontier invaded and rebelled many times. It was too late to transfer tiger talismans from the central government, so gradually local The scepters of Xing Taishou, state shepherd, and state governor are also often used as tokens of troop deployment.

  But after all, there is only one scepter, and it is impossible to break it into several sections for use, so there is a stamped transfer text, and small-scale troop transfers can also be carried out. But this kind of transfer is only valid in this county, that is, only the seal transfer of Wangyi Hedong County can transfer the troops in Hedong County, to other counties, or other counties like Feiqian Transferring texts is useless.

  The question is where did Fei Qian get the Yiwen?

Fei Qian suddenly realized a problem, but judging from the current situation, although Wang Yi explained the matter of borrowing Puzi County for the time being, he either didn't explain it clearly, or he still had reservations. As I said, I have clearly explained that from now on I can handle the affairs of Pu County with full authority...

   "What did Wang Shijun say in the letter?" Now it's a little troublesome, Fei Qian frowned.

   "I dare not hide anything from the envoy Fei," Chen Rui smiled bitterly, and said, "The prince only said that after Ping Baibo, he will provide the envoy Fei with money and food for two years, and there is nothing else..."

  Fei Qian heard this, and immediately lost his temper.

  Only two years of money and food...

   It is also specifically aimed at the fact that only after the Baibo army was pacified...

   This Wang Yi is really real!

   Not willing to suffer at all!

Perhaps Fei Qianlue seemed greedy at the time and asked for some taste of taking advantage of the fire. Therefore, although Wang Yi finally agreed to temporarily lend the Puzi County Township to Fei Qian for two years, he only followed the agreement at the time and did not leave any money behind. Let me tell you what loopholes you can exploit.

   But this is completely far from all the expectations of Feiqian!

   Now Feiqian needs to mobilize troops to attack Yong'an City. Why wait for the Baibo army to calm down and have two years of money. This kind of afterthought is of no use to Feiqian now!

   To complete his strategic layout, he must borrow soldiers to capture Yong'an County, but now Wang Yi has no mention of the transfer of military power.

  What now?

  Fei Qian had a headache for a while...

   The "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" messenger is an extremely terrifying errand.

   Whether it is dead or alive, the messenger himself is mostly baffled...

   Sixty-third chapter

The report said that it was sent by General Zhang... Yan Yan was furious, and scolded: "How dare you be rude!..." Called the warrior to cut off the soldier's ears and nose, but put it back...flying his fingers and hated, saying: "If you catch you old man Man, I will eat your flesh myself!"

   A disagreement caused the ear and nose to be cut off.

   PS: Zhang Fei talked about cannibalism, which shows that it is very common to scold a certain mother in later generations. Think about it, if you scold someone in later generations and say that you will cut off and eat the other person’s flesh... This... Thinking about it is horrifying...

   Seventy-ninth chapter

   Liu Feng Lanshu was furious...so he tore up the incoming book and beheaded his envoy.

   Without even saying a word, he just moved his head.

   It was mentioned in Chapter 45:

   Suddenly reported that Cao Cao sent an envoy to send a letter. Yu calls in. When the envoy presented the book for reading... Yu was furious, let alone read it, tore the book into pieces, threw it on the ground, shouted and beheaded the envoy... then beheaded the envoy, and gave the head back to the servant.

   Don't even read the letter, just move your head.

   Chapter 11

   Cao Cao read the book and scolded...Ordained to behead the envoy...Guo Jia remonstrated...Cao followed his words, and kept the money for the envoy...

   Move your head, or keep the reward...

   There is no exact number at all...

   So, those who expect to show off their eloquence to win the first place will also depend on whether others will give this opportunity...
