Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 529 November (4000)

"Han Yue is dead!"

Li Zhang looked a little terrified and helpless, and said to his subordinates: "Han Yue is dead, Ma Teng has surrendered, Liu De's next target must be me, what should I do?"

"General, why don't we surrender too! Look at what kind of general Ma Teng became under the command of Duke Han. His status is even higher than before! Your status is no worse than that of Ma Teng, and your reputation among the Qiang people Ma Teng is not comparable, if he surrenders to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness will be very happy!"

A general spoke up.

The atmosphere in the room was a bit dignified, Li Zhang said: "Then what if Duke Han disagrees?"

"What's the problem? You send someone to ask first. If it doesn't work, we'll hide in the woods. If we want to encircle and suppress us in the woods, we won't be able to do it without a hundred and eighty thousand soldiers! When the time comes, Let's send people to plunder everywhere and disturb him, don't you think Han Gong has a headache!"

"Hehe, you're right!" Li Zhang thought about it later, and asked again: "Then what if Mr. Han agrees to my request, confiscates my soldiers and horses secretly, or even wants to harm me secretly?"

"The general is worrying too much. Even we in a remote place like Weizhou know that Duke Han is the king of benevolence and righteousness. Duke Han, the son of the defeated princes, was never killed. It is certainly impossible to hurt the general secretly. However, the soldiers and horses who captured the general , the possibility is not high, you see that Ma Teng didn't hand over the soldiers and horses in his hand, he still holds the power."

"You're right!"

Li Zhang paced back and forth on the ground, and the eyes of everyone around him were dizzy, and finally made up his mind: "Okay, Li Ming, you can help me find out what Han Gong said, I can surrender, but we must keep the soldiers and horses." , and wasn’t Ma Teng conferred a third-rank general? My official position must not be lower than that of Ma Teng, and the title is the same!”

A general got up and said: "The end general understands!"

Li Ming didn't stop, and within a few days he came to Guchang City. Liu De was still sitting in Guchang City, while the other generals were sent out by Liu De. Recover several important counties and counties in Weizhou, connect them with each other, think of protection, and finally unify the whole Weizhou.

Liu De met Li Ming very quickly, and Li Ming directly informed Liu De of Li Zhang's request, and his words were full of threats that if Liu De did not agree, the Qiang people in Weizhou might cause trouble everywhere.

Liu De's face did not change, but he directly ordered: "Come here, cut off one of this person's ears, let him go back, and tell Li Zhang that if you sincerely come to vote, Gu will welcome you in person. If you are still so presumptuous, Don't blame the orphans for leading an army to attack him!"

"roll!"

Li Ming clutched his severed ear and ran away as if fleeing. He didn't even bother to bandage him. He didn't expect Liu De to be so decisive. When he returned to the camp where Li Zhang was, he immediately cried to Li Zhang and told himself The cut off ear was shown to Li Zhang.

Li Zhang was furious, "Liu De really deceived me too much! He really thought he could win Weizhou. I'm going to let Liu De take a good look at our strength today!"

"Come on, send a letter to the other leaders immediately, telling them that Liu De wants to drive us Qiang people to extinction. If we want to survive, we Qiang people must unite!"

At this time, Liu De also said to the generals below: "What is Li Zhang's support?"

"Reliance is nothing but his prestige among the Qiang people, but since the Qiang people have never been unified for hundreds of years, even internal fighting is far better than internal fighting! We only need a small amount of money to buy other Qiang people, Therefore, there is no one to help Li Zhang, if Li Zhang fled to the mountains and forests, we may not find Li Zhang, so what about the other Qiang people?"

"The rewards for the heads of Li Zhang and even his subordinates are high. The Qiang people are short-sighted and greedy for profit. Even Li Zhang has to guard against his subordinates. Can he hide for a year? Can he hide for two years?"

The Qiang people like internal fighting, a unique habit, so Liu De can use this to divide the Qiang people. Liu De now has [-] soldiers and horses. Given the chaotic situation in Weizhou, [-] soldiers and horses in Weizhou are only It can splash a small wave, so Liu De can only control the important urban nodes of Weizhou first.

What's more, the 5 troops in Liu De's hands cannot stay in Weizhou for a long time, and the battle between the South and Li Yun is imminent. Of the 1 troops, only [-] will be left in the end.

Then they bought the Qiang people who were close to the big Han, instigated them, or directly gave them money and food, and used them to eliminate other hostile Qiang people. However, this is a long-term process and cannot be rushed.

The rest is to use politics, economy, and culture to gradually disintegrate the Qiang people. This will take a long time, but it will be considered a success if the situation in Weizhou is stabilized in a short period of time.

Liu De said to Ma Chao and Xun You: "Leave this matter to you two to handle!"

Xun You and Ma Chao lead the way.

Xun You has wisdom and Ma Chao has prestige, so it is not difficult to accomplish this!

"The next thing to discuss is who will be the shepherd of Weizhou and guard Weizhou for Gu?"

Liu De asked.

If you want to be a shepherd in Weizhou, you need both qualifications and ability, not to mention the complicated situation in Weizhou. It is best to select officials who are familiar with the habits of Weizhou or the Qiang people, which is difficult for everyone.

Yan Nan recommended to Liu De: "To say that he is familiar with Weizhou, Yan Langzhong once served as a counselor for the former Prince Mu of Weizhou, and he is quite familiar with the situation in Weizhou, but Yan Langzhong is now a fifth-rank official, and his qualifications are not enough Weizhou Shepherd!"

Liu De nodded and said: "Yan Keqiu has made a lot of contributions this time. When Wuwei is captured, he will be the prefect of Wuwei."

Liu De also found that it would not be easy for his subordinates to single out someone as Weizhou Mu, since both ability and loyalty must be ensured.

Liu De thought for a while before making up his mind: "Appoint Zhang Cheng as the prefect of Jincheng, and Liu Yu as the prefect of Guchang."

Jincheng and Guchang, one is Ma Teng’s base, and the other is Han Yue’s old nest. They are both important node cities in Weizhou. Zhang Cheng and Liu Yu have always served as servants, and today they are placed in the position of prefect. After a while, it is up to them whether they can take a step closer.

"Appoint Gao Xing as Weizhou Shepherd, in charge of Weizhou government affairs."

In the end, Liu De made up his mind to transfer Gao Biao. Gao Biao was outstanding in both government affairs and military affairs, and his qualifications and prestige were sufficient. For a period of time, everything in Weizhou can be smoothed out.

However, both Gao Yan and Yan Keqiu were transferred to Weizhou, and the Ministry of War has no one in charge, and now Liu De has no suitable candidates. However, the power of the Ministry of War overlaps with that of the governors of the five armies, and now it is a special period , you can temporarily transfer the affairs under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War to the Five Armed Forces Governor's Office for handling.

Liu De's transfer order was quickly sent to Beiping, and then there was a battle report that Wuwei had been taken by Liu Pi, so Liu De set up camp and went to Wuwei to sit in town.

In November, as Zong Ze expected, heavy snow fell on both sides of the river, but within a few days, the river was completely frozen. Why couldn't Li Yun defeat Guan Yu's troops in two months?
One of the aspects is the urgent military situation from Jinzhou. The troops led by Huo Qubing directly crossed the river to attack the northern part of Jinzhou. It's menacing, but it can't really affect Jinzhou at all.

Li Yun deployed Li Qin and Li Jingyan's 2 horses in [Shangshuo] in Jinzhou, and the terrain of Jinzhou was not suitable for cavalry deployment, so Huo Qubing could only compete with the 2 horses in Shangshuo for a while. Rivalry.

And Li Yun's heavy general, Han Wei, was stationed in the west of Jinzhou. Peng Yue fought Han Wei once, but he couldn't defeat him, so Peng Yue directly bypassed Han Wei's defense and marched directly into Jinzhou.

Peng Yue's retreat was directly blocked by Han Wei, but Peng Yue fought a guerrilla war with Han Wei by virtue of his excellent leadership ability, which made Han Wei very headache, so he could only try his best to deal with Peng Yue.

After all, Huo Qubing and Peng Yue could only act recklessly in Jinzhou and could not threaten Chen Liu, and Li Yun's troops staying in Jinzhou were sufficient to defend against the invading enemy troops.

So Huo Qubing and Peng Yue were not the most troublesome for Li Yun, but the most troublesome thing for Li Yun was personally leading the army to attack Luzhou. Li Yun almost always had too many troops to defend Luzhou.

Xiang Yu was so powerful that he managed to occupy a large area of ​​Li Yun's territory in Luzhou, so Li Yun had to mobilize Chen Liu's garrison and order Li Feng to lead the army to attack Xiang Yu.

Because of Xiang Yu's reputation, Li Yun could only mobilize 2 people from his side to support Li Feng.

This also caused the embarrassing situation that Li Yun was unable to defeat Guan Yu, nor could he annihilate the bell. Moreover, the river was frozen, and Li Yun's navy could no longer be used. The blockade of Guan Yu failed completely. Guan Yu could use the frozen Dahe returned to Jizhou.

Turning the perspective back to Liu De, Liu De's strategy has been successful, and many Qiang leaders have betrayed Li Zhang because of Liu De's promise.

Liu De's prestige in Weizhou is not high, mainly relying on Ma Chao's prestige, this plan finally worked.

Li Zhang wanted to lead his troops to attack Liu De, but was defeated several times, so Li Zhang had to lead the remnants to hide in the mountains.

After three months, Liu De successfully occupied Wuwei, the capital of Weizhou, and several counties and counties. Of course, there is still a long way to go before completely ruling Weizhou. Therefore, Liu De still needs to guard Wuwei for a period of time.

As for Beiping, due to the coming of winter, the cleaning work of Beiping City had to be suspended, and many things happened, such as someone secretly blocking or even destroying, but in the eyes of Xun Yu and Fang Xuanling, these stubborn Molecules are playing tricks, so they don't need to be taken seriously at all.

And in October, Liu De's concubines Mi Zhen, Sun Shangxiang, Guo You, and Yang Yuhuan also had a child.

I don't know why, maybe Liu De's genes are too strong. Although Liu De has a lot of children, none of them died early, and the birth was very smooth.

In this era, it is very normal for a child to die early, even if the royal family is as noble as the royal family, it is inevitable. Therefore, Beiping and even the entire Han Dynasty, from the high-ranking officials to the Li common people, all think that Liu De is the destiny, and the hearts of the people once again. Condensed, Liu De didn't pay too much attention to this matter.

Now Liu De is thinking about naming his child!

Mi Zhen gave birth to a daughter for herself before, and now she has added a son, which is considered a great achievement. Liu De thought about it, and wrote two large characters on the snow-white paper - Liu Yu.

Sun Shangxiang was a martial artist, so the child was named Liu Wu, who was also a boy.

Guo You, Guo Zidong's daughter, of course, Guo Zidong's threat to Liu De is quite huge, but now the hero has long been buried, and the Guo family, which was once tyrannical, has become a thing of the past.

Guo You and his mother put all their energy into raising their children. Guo You's belly was also competitive. The first child was twins, but the second child was twins, but they were all girls.

Thinking of this, Liu De suddenly thought of Guo You's only younger brother - Guo Xian, Guo Xian should be nine or ten years old now!
If Guo Xian has some ability, Liu De is also willing to use it. Guo Zidong was only a prefect of a county when he was a tyrant, but now Liu De is in charge of five states. The gap is too big. How could Liu De be afraid that a child will fail.

Liu De continued to write two names on the white paper—Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei.

Good name!
Good name!
Liu De couldn't stop nodding in praise.

Yang Yuhuan also gave birth to a fat boy for herself. This boy is the heaviest among these children, and Liu De directly named it Liu Zhong, which complements each other perfectly.

Liu Rendan pointed to the direction of the river and said to Zhang Fei: "General, we should not be far from the location of Guan Dudu. According to the report from the inspector, Guan Dudu is camping outside Kuan County, confronting Wei Gong Li Yun."

Zhang Fei said: "Let's go directly to support Guan Dudu. Although it has doubled our strength, it is just adding a handful of firewood to the stove. Although the fire has become stronger, it is unrealistic to completely defeat Li Yun. Therefore, we Better go around."

Zhang Fei pointed to the map and said to the generals: "Go ashore from Hepu, first break the siege of General Zhong, and then surround Li Yun's troops!"

"General Zhang, what a good strategy!"

Liu Rendan praised from the side.

Unexpectedly, although this General Zhang is a reckless man, he is very admirable.

"Ha ha!"

Zhang Fei laughed heartily, obviously quite complacent, "In that case, let's set off and rush to Hepu immediately!"

However, to Zhang Fei's disappointment, Hepu County was captured by the Wei army. The bell persisted for several months, and finally, with the help of the traitor, the Wei army captured the city.

After Zhong Sheng learned the news that Wei Jun had entered the city in the mansion, he killed his wife and children in tears, then set fire to the mansion, and died by self-immolation.

Dedicated his last loyalty to Da Zhou.

Zhang Fei had no choice but to set out in Hepu City, hoping to take Hepu while the Wei army was unprepared. Although the Wei army was flustered for a while at first, they quickly reacted, and Zhang Fei's siege equipment was lacking. Unable to conquer, they had to set up camp outside the city.
