Han Qiu looked at Feng Yong's appearance and became even more determined, "I still have something to ask for."
I just want you, this young man, to die quickly!
Feng Yong took a deep breath and said, "I wonder if there is anything else you can do, sir?"
"I, a member of the Han family, will not work for Liu Han in life, and will not be buried in Liu Han's land until death."
"I know that I have no chance of survival, so I only hope that after my death, my Lord will let someone burn my body to collect the ashes and help me pack my clothes."
"A certain person once brought over a hundred people from Dingxiang, but now there are still dozens of people who have fallen into the hands of the king."
"If the prince can select a few people among them, he can send my relics back to Dingxiang, so that no one's relics can be left in the Han Dynasty."
"Even under the spring, I will be grateful."
Han Qiu stood up and saluted Feng Yong solemnly.
"Counting people? Are ten people enough?"
Feng Junhou, who was wealthy and wealthy, quickly calculated in his mind, and one by one equals one, and two by one equals three.
Ten people are worth a thousand yuan, which is a bit expensive and feels a bit painful.
"That's enough!" Han Chou said happily, "I'd like to thank you in advance."
"Don't thank me in a hurry. Whether your soul will survive after your death depends on what you said."
As long as what you say is valuable, whether it's money or not, ah, no, I mean, it doesn't matter if you thank me or not.
Of course, if you dare to lie to me, I heard that the ashes fertilization field is very effective?
Anyway, farming is being resumed in Pingxiang.
Feng Junhou thought it was fair.
Hearing Feng Yong say this, Han Qiu no longer concealed anything: "Hao Zhao is about to die."
"Hao Zhao?" Feng Yong was startled. He couldn't react, or he couldn't believe it. "That Hao Zhao from Liangzhou?"
"It seems that there is only one Hao Zhao who can be remembered by the king, right?"
Han Qiu said.
There is indeed only one. In the original history, the burning made Old Demon Zhuge furious, and last year it burned Old Man Wei almost to the point of vomiting blood.
Feng Yong raised his head and tried hard to recall when did Hao Zhao die in the original history?
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't remember where I remembered when Hao Zhao died.
I only remember that he died of serious illness, and it was after the second Northern Expedition.
The second Northern Expedition in history took place after the Battle of Shiting, in December last year.
But after this "after", how long is it?
But there is no specific time.
"How can you be so sure, sir?"
Feng Yong looked suspicious and asked Han Qiu.
"Because I came from Liangzhou and Hao Zhao was seriously ill, so I personally treated him."
Han Qiu smiled calmly and said, "If you have a way to find out the news about Liangzhou, you can know that last year, Zhang Miao, the governor of Liangzhou, went to Guang to find a famous doctor."
When Feng Yong heard that Han Qiu said that Hao Zhao was seriously ill, Feng Yong was already half convinced: Yes, it is similar to what was recorded in history.
"Hao Zhao's disease is actually a disease of intestinal ulcer, which is also caused by fire attacking the heart. The qi has accumulated in the chest for a long time. It is necessary to slowly regulate and recuperate before recovery is possible."
"At that time, He only suppressed his illness temporarily and used ginseng to boost his vitality. As soon as he finished the medicine that He left for him, his condition would relapse and his life would be short-lived!"
"In addition, ginseng is the thing that causes Lao Yang to get angry. I'm afraid he will vomit blood and die. Therefore, I dare to say that Hao Zhao will definitely not survive April this year."
When Feng Yong heard this, he felt his chest beating violently.
Hao Zhao guarded Liangzhou and Hexi for more than ten years, winning the hearts of the Han and Hu people in Hexi and gaining high prestige.
Moreover, his troops were well-organized and he suppressed rebellions in Liangzhou many times.
Although he was defeated by the Tiger Infantry led by Zhuge Laoyao himself last year, during the siege of Xiangwu City, Zhuge Laoyao had heard of Hao Zhao's reputation in Hexi and attached great importance to him.
If he dies, Liangzhou will lose a pillar.
So this information is very important.
"The prince, Xu Miao, the governor of Liangzhou, is a civil servant. He has a good way of governing the people, but in terms of military affairs, he is far inferior to his ability to govern the people. Only by looking up to Hao Zhao can he control the soldiers and generals of Liangzhou."
"Last year Liangzhou was shaken and people's hearts were not yet stable. If Hao Zhao goes there again, there will be no one with enough prestige in Hexi. It is the right time to send troops westward."
When Han Qiu saw the change in Feng Yong's expression, he quickly mustered up his words and tried his best to persuade him.
It's just that Feng Langjun, who has the special skill of "eloquent words and seduction", is naturally immune to similar skills. How can Han Qiu be persuaded by a few words?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
This Han Qiu hates the big man so much, how could he think about the big man?
The way he is now, he is either telling lies or has ulterior motives.
It doesn't matter if you tell lies. Whether Hao Zhao will die in April, you can always find out if you find a way.
And judging from the historical trajectory, it is indeed very likely that Hao Zhao is about to die of illness.
To take a step back, the next step of the Han Dynasty is definitely to take Liangzhou into his hands. Even if Hao Zhao is alive, he will not be able to stop the Han Dynasty.
The only difference is whether it is more difficult or easier.
The only thing to worry about is if Han Qiu has other agendas.
When Feng Yong thought of this, he felt a little hesitant and felt that his IQ was not enough.
So I may need a wise concubine...
"Capturing Liangzhou is a great thing for the Han Dynasty. Why is Sir so abnormal and enthusiastic?"
Feng Yong finally couldn't help but ask.
"Junhou, I only promised to tell you about Liangzhou and guarantee that it is true. As for why I am so enthusiastic, if I say that it is to repay you for helping me clear up my doubts, will you believe it?"
Han Qiu seemed to have expected that Feng Yong would ask such a question, and his eyes were full of teasing.
I believe you, you are such a bad old man!
Otherwise, give him the top ten tortures of a Man-Han banquet first?
As soon as Feng Yong thought about it, he glanced at Han Qiu with eager eyes.
I just remembered that this old guy was so calm before dying, and torture might not be able to pry his mouth open.
What's more, Han Long also used Jia Yi's words to persuade Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty to admonish himself. If he was sentenced to death, he would be breaking his promise.
Finally, I thought about my notoriety in Nanzhong. I had finally accumulated a little reputation among the rangers. If I really reneged on my word, I might not be able to keep this reputation.
So Feng Yong calmed down again and looked at Han Qiu without any sign of weakness: "Of course I believe what you said, sir."
I can't figure it out. Could it be that Old Demon Zhuge can't figure it out either?
If Old Demon Zhuge eats such a large piece of fat meat in Liangzhou, it will not be possible for him to be suffocated to death. Instead, it will fatten him up.
Judging from the IQ of this old guy, it is impossible to compare with the Han Prime Minister.
Feng Tubiao figured this out and became happy again: Do you know there is someone above me?
On the contrary, Han Chou was a little surprised when he saw that Feng Yong looked calm and had no doubt that what he said was a lie. He seemed very confident.
"You really have a beautiful heart. No wonder you can hold a high position at such a young age."
My becoming a prince has nothing to do with my ambition.
Feng Yongcai doesn't care about his flattery. Do you think you won't have to die if you praise me like this? What a beautiful idea!
"There is one more thing I would like to ask, Sir. The Bald Hair Division and I had agreed to fight against the Hu rebels together. But in the end, there was silence. I wonder what Sir did to them?"
Feng Yong asked.
It would be a pity if he lost the goodwill he had cultivated with great difficulty, and he was a rare fighter.
A few days ago, I also gave Baludao Kheli half a catty of tea and three jars of strong liquor...
Isn’t this a loss?
"It's nothing. When the bald-haired tribe was still on the grassland, I treated many people in the bald-haired tribe, and I have some connections with them."
"When I came here this time, I went to reminisce about old times and reminded them of what they would face if they defeated the Pohanhu people alone."
Han Qiu looked at Feng Yong with a smile on his face, "So I suggest them to invite the Han army to come over and fight together against the Hu people in Fanhan."
Feng Yong's expression changed.
"Then what?"
"They think what I said makes sense."
"So when you led the Qifu tribe's elite cavalry through the Daxia River, they promised you not to tell me anything?"
"That's not true, but there is an elder who I have known for a long time in the Bald Hair Ministry. I saved his life back then. He just told me the whereabouts of the messenger sent by the Bald Hair Ministry."
"You intercepted the Bald Ministry's messenger?"
"Otherwise, wouldn't the Lord know my whereabouts?"
When Feng Yong heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
If the bald man didn't even want to inform him of the news, although he couldn't bear it, he still had to kill him.
"I once asked Bald Khotan to come to Daxia County, but now that he has not arrived for a long time, it seems that it was you who did something?"
Feng Yong confirmed with Han Qiu again.
"He was summoned to Daxia County by the Lord. He was attacked and injured on the way. The Hu people didn't have much scheming. I'm afraid many people thought it was the Lord."
Han Qiu's tone was very concerned, "I'm afraid Junhou will have to spend a lot of time to explain it clearly to them."
When Feng Yong heard this, he stood up suddenly and glared at Han Chou, "Did you blame me?"
This old man really does whatever he wants.
He only saved half of Hao Zhao, and then sold the information to himself.
Borrowing troops from Liangzhou, he then sold Liangzhou.
Remind the bald part to pay attention to safety, and think of ways to trick the bald part halfway through.
Thinking of this, Feng Yong was horrified. He couldn't believe that this old guy was also digging a hole, preparing to bury himself!
So you can't follow his lead.
"Sir, do you have no regrets in acting like this?"
When Han Qiu heard this, he burst out laughing: "Did Liu Bangyi and the Han family feel guilty back then?"
"I also asked about the king. I heard that the king is known as the ghost king in Nanyi. He feeds on flesh and blood, and his reputation can stop children from crying at night."
"In the middle of Shu, there is a name for Xiao Wenhe. He offers poison and plots to plot the wealth of the wealthy families in Shu. Those who jump from the city to the river are like leaves falling from the trees in autumn."
"After coming to Longyou, the Qiang and Hu all called Feng Langjun, but based on the monarch's plot against the Tufa tribe, someone already knew what would happen to the Qiang and Hu in Longyou..."
Feng Yong was furious, "Shut up! Old man, do you think I dare not kill you?"
Slander, this is the biggest slander!
Han Qiu sighed and shook his head, and stood up, "The prince plays with the world at the palm of his hand. He can slaughter a city with a word and exterminate a clan with a word. He is worthy of being a disciple of the ancient master."
"I have no regrets when I am defeated at the hands of a prince. If I hear the truth in the morning, I will die in the evening. It is not in vain that I have traveled thousands of miles to Longxi if I can get answers from the prince today."
"If your Majesty has no further questions, then I will leave first."
Feng Yong had a gloomy face and said solemnly: "Then I won't send it to you, sir."
After a while, Huo Yi came in: "Your Majesty, the leader of the thieves has committed suicide with his sword."
"Have you checked the things he left behind?"
Feng Yong's face was calm and his eyes were deep. The anger he felt when he was talking to Han Chou had long since disappeared.
"After checking, they are all common clothes, nothing special."
Feng Yong nodded, "That's good. The body will be cremated, and then ten of his personal followers will be selected from the prisoners of war and the things will be handed over to them."
Not curing Hao Zhao, but also spreading the news to himself, plus increasing Han Long's favor, these things combined are indeed worth a thousand dollars.
The next day, Feng Yong led the army to Daxia County and joined forces with Chen Shi who was guarding there.
At this point, the spring campaign launched by the Han Dynasty against the rebel Hu in Longxi came to an end.
With Didao as the center, reaching Daxia County in the west and Guguan in the north, these three points formed important supports and opened up the southern passage to Liangzhou.
From Nan'an County to Yuzhong, Liangzhou, and from Didao to Jincheng, the north and south roads are like the two fangs of the Han Dynasty, which can launch an attack on Liangzhou at any time.
Yuzhong and Jincheng are Liangzhou's two most important strongholds east of the Yellow River, and now they are finally exposed to the threat of the Han Dynasty at the same time.
As the temperature continues to rise, the ice and snow melt, and the Daxia River flowing through Daxia County swells.
Accompanied by Chen Shi, Jufu and others, Feng Yong patrolled along the east bank of the Daxia River.
"Do you really want to withdraw your troops? At this time, the Qiang and Hu people in Wuhan have become frightened. If we continue to go west, we may not be able to cross the Wuhan River Pass."
Chen Shi looked to the west with some reluctance.
Feng Yong sighed and shook his head, "The time has not come yet. Without General Zhao to put pressure on the Cao thieves in Liangzhou from the north, we will have to be attacked on both sides."
The attack was supposed to be here at the beginning, and as there was movement in Cao Wei to the east of Longshan, Dongfeng Express had to give priority to transporting grain from the Longyou Governor's Mansion.
Therefore, the troops under the command of the Qiang Guards who entered Longxi for mopping up operations had no temporary plans to increase expenditures on additional food and grass.
Not only did it not increase additional expenditure, but it also prepared to reap the dividends of the war.
Group after group of prisoners of war were tied with hemp ropes and began to be escorted eastward.
At the same time, after rewarding the soldiers, there were still tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, which were also sent to Pingxiang.
"It's cheaper for the bald people."
Feng Yong looked at the herds of cattle, sheep and horses with regret in his eyes.
I heard that the Baldy Department harvested more than 100,000 livestock.
He actually only drank the tail soup, which made Feng Junhou feel a little disadvantaged.
"Junhou, when it comes to baldness, how should we deal with it?"
Chen Shi pretended not to notice Feng Junhou's financial obsession and asked seriously.
"Don't worry about them." Feng Yong sneered, "If they come looking for you, just let them go to Pingxiang to find me."
I have expressed enough goodwill to the Bald Hair Department. If they are ignorant and want to take advantage of their situation, then sooner or later the Sa family will let you know what the power of the ghost king is.
Don't worry about whether I know what happened in the Baldness Department. It's a fact that you didn't fulfill your promise.
So you must take the initiative to explain, and your attitude must be sincere, otherwise the leader, ah, no, the ghost king, will take the initiative to come to you to understand the problem?
Don't I want to lose face?
"Prefect Chen, your task is to guard Didao tightly, and at the same time use Daxia County as the boundary to block the Qiang and Hu in the west. Whatever the Bald Tribe asks for, they cannot be granted."
"promise!"
"Does Governor Chen have any suggestions for the defenders of Didao, Daxia City, and Guguan?"
Although this battle was mainly fought by the troops of the Qiang Colonel Lieutenant, after all, Chen Shi was the real Governor of Longxi, so we still had to ask his opinion.
"Going back to the lord, Didao used to be the county seat of Longxi. Therefore, if I want to move the county government back to Didao, I can also strengthen the defense of Didao."
"As for the old pass, it is the gateway for Didao to defend Liangzhou. Someone wants to recommend Ma Yong, the chief official of Longxi. He is quite courageous and can be ordered to guard it."
Feng Yong heard that Chen Shi wanted to personally guard Didao, and he admired this Han general who, although not very talented, was dedicated to his duties.
"Prefect Chen personally guards Didao, so I have no worries. As for that Ma Yong, is he the one who assisted You Chu in forcing General Wei back?"
Chen Shi quickly replied: "Returning to the throne, it's true. He is originally from Xiangwu, Longxi. After knowing the righteousness and returning to the Han Dynasty, he is dedicated to his work, so I am willing to recommend him."
Feng Yong nodded, "Since Governor Chen said that, I think there must be nothing wrong with him. What about Daxia County?"
"For the candidate to be the guard of Daxia County, I would like to borrow someone from the prince."
