Chapter 354 The generals are coming to offer gifts and fellow villagers are accountable
So Jian Yong stayed at Qu Yi's military camp that night.
Early the next morning, Qu Yi quietly led a few personal guards to the rear to meet Han Fu first.
For some time, Zhang Ju had been trapped in a ditch and a high fort, avoiding fighting. Qu Yi tried to force Zhang Ju for several days, but never saw him leading his troops into battle, so he turned around and went to see Han Fu in secret one day.
There shouldn't be any big problems here.
After all, Qu Yi was a man who had been in the military all year round. He moved very quickly and met Han Fu soon.
At this time, Qu Yi had 4,000 elite troops on the front line, while Han Fu was in charge of nearly 10,000 troops.
These ten thousand people belong to Han Fu's capital.
…
"The last official, Qu Yi, has met Uncle Fang!"
Han Fu was leaning on the table, holding a volume of "Shang Shu" in his hand, stroking his beard and reading it carefully.
When Qu Yi saw Han Fu's state, he felt a little angry.
It's been so long, it's so urgent, how can you still be in this mood?
The more Han Fu acted like this, the more Qu Yi felt that Han Fu couldn't help him.
He was worried like a dog on the front line, but he was happy in the presence of the old god?
"Uncle Fang, I have asked him for ten days in a row to arrange for supplies and support the soldiers. Why is it that Uncle Fang is still unmoved? Doesn't Uncle Fang want to put an end to Zhang Ju's rebellion?"
Han Fu put down the slip in his hand and sighed.
"Some things cannot be rushed. They need to be handled slowly and slowly."
Qu Yi had a headache after hearing this.
Han Fu is like this, he does everything in no hurry.
Take it slow?
Fight the war and suppress the rebellion!
How to handle this slowly?
"Uncle Fang, the soldiers on the front line are short of rations. When distributing food, they have replaced large dendrobium with small dendrobium. The morale of the three armies is low and the soldiers are already complaining. How can we take care of it slowly?"
Han Fu was very unhappy: "Such a cunning person is so rude! The country is in crisis, and both Han and Sima are in trouble for a while. They can just tolerate this little thing and wait until Han collects food in the future."
, and the reissue is, Sima, as the commander-in-chief of an army, you still need to use military laws and run the army strictly!"
In this aspect, Qu Yi and Han Fu really couldn't communicate.
One of them is a figure who has led troops to fight in the border counties of Liangzhou all year round, and knows the temperament and temperament of his subordinates.
The officers and men of the three armies should conduct themselves according to military laws and restrain their actions.
Of course, the problem is not the fault of the soldiers of the three armies now... it is the general who lacks food rations for the soldiers!
When an army goes into battle, the most taboo thing is insufficient food supply.
This cannot be suppressed by relying on military law to kill people.
Isn't it a big mistake to use military law to suppress the soldiers who already lacked food and supplies?
Han Fu was born in a high-ranking family of the Yingchuan gentry. He was a famous Confucian scholar and a disciple of the Yuan family. His family's power was deeply rooted in Yingchuan. The environment in which he grew up was based on the high-ranking family's oppression of ordinary people.
Therefore, since he was young, Han Fu has been accustomed to ordinary people looking at the door for nobles like them and making way for high-ranking people.
Whether it was in terms of official career or actual resources and interests, celebrities and high-ranking officials in the Han Dynasty had a natural habit of giving priority to them in everything.
Even if the people at the bottom endure hardships, poverty, and misfortunes...it is your natural state of life to endure hardships and hardships, and it is what you should be doing.
Today, this kind of thinking has also been used by Han Fu on the soldiers in Qu Yi's army.
"Uncle Fang doesn't know how to fight. Under such a situation, how can we strictly enforce military laws on the soldiers? Wouldn't this cause a mutiny? The top priority is to find a way to quickly raise food. If not, I can only temporarily withdraw the army and join forces with Uncle Fang."
One place!”
"Absolutely not!"
Han Fu said hurriedly: "I returned to Youzhou to fight against the thieves. It was the time to establish my authority and trust. Now all the counties and families have a wait-and-see attitude towards me. Even if I cannot defeat Zhang Ju, I must win the battle to show them."
, Otherwise, how will Han gain a foothold in Youzhou in the future?"
From his personal point of view, there is nothing wrong with Han Fu's ideas.
The question is, if you want to fight a war, do you have to do the logistics well?
Just let the war be fought but not the logistics?
Qu Yi licked his lips and finally sighed. The last hope in his heart for Han Fu was completely gone.
"Qu has a method that may solve this urgent problem. Please listen carefully, Uncle Fang!"
When Han Fu heard that Qu Yi had a solution, he hurriedly said: "Qu Sima just said it doesn't matter!"
Qu Yi said: "The scouts under the officials found out that some of Zhang Ju's grain and grass are currently stored on the Jieshi Road in the northwest. It is said that the quantity is quite large. If we can capture these grains, we can attack Zhang's thieves."
Secondly, it can be used to replenish the military supplies of our army. I wonder what Fang Bo wants?"
Han Fu was quite puzzled: "Is there such a good thing? It's just that Zhang Ju's troops are in Feiru, so why should he station grain on Jieshi Road?"
Qu Yi sneered and said, "This is Zhang Thief leaving a way out for himself. The Jieshi Road is close to the Bohai Ferry, so the officials can cross it. Zhang Thief must have planned that if the war in Youzhou fails, he will go out to sea from the Jieshi Road and go
The waterway goes straight to Liaodong! The grain crops are stationed on the Jieshi Road to make it easier to move the ships!"
When Han Fu heard this, he suddenly realized.
"Since Qu Sima has found out his true identity, why not send men and horses quickly to seize his food to replenish our army?"
Qu Yi shook his head and said: "I only have 4,000 troops under my command, and most of them are sergeants with crossbows. The defense of the position is acceptable, but as a surprise attack army, it is useless! Although the main force of Zhang Thief's army is in Fei
For example, the Jieshi Road is the lifeline for his final escape, so he must be prepared!"
"My four thousand troops will achieve nothing if they leave!"
Han Fu asked: "How many men and horses does Sima need to accomplish this?"
Qu Yi lowered his head, and after thinking carefully for a moment, he said: "At least, it will require 10,000 horses."
After listening to Qu Yi's suggestion, Han Fu seemed a little hesitant. He sat down, stroking his beard and thinking carefully.
Ten thousand people were put in charge by Qu Yi, a native of Liangzhou, and Han Fu was worried.
Qu Yi said: "If Uncle Fang feels that there is danger, then Qu will go back to the front line and withdraw his troops temporarily, and we will discuss it again."
"Oh, no! No... we have to fight, we still have to fight!"
Han Fu hurriedly stretched out his hand to block Qu Yi and said: "Sima cannot retreat at this time. Once he retreats, all the heroes in Youzhou will not obey me in the future. They only obey Xun Yu and Guan Yu. How can I compete with them in the land of Youzhou in the future?"
Long and short, absolutely don’t do it!”
Later, Han Fu called his confidant who was brought here from Yingchuan, and now Wu Meng is engaged in Zhang Xing.
"How about I take Zhang to lead 6,000 soldiers and horses, together with your 4,000 elite troops, a total of 10,000, to attack Jieshi Road with you?"
Qu Yi said: "With these ten thousand soldiers, we will definitely succeed!"
…
…
Afterwards, Qu Yi set up camp fifty miles away from Feiru, planted flags widely, and built more tents, thinking that the formation was suspicious. He secretly led 10,000 troops and horses, together with Zhang Xing from the Youzhou Governor's Department, and ran on the starry night
Go along the Jieshi Road.
Han Fu, on the other hand, is waiting for the good news from Qu Yi.
But who could have imagined that a few days later, Zhang Chenggong, who he sent to supervise the army to attack Jieshi Road with Qu Yi, actually returned alone.
After meeting Han Fu, Zhang Xing immediately cried and worshiped on the ground.
When Han Fu saw this, he was very puzzled and said: "Zhang Zheng went to Jieshi Road with Qu Yi to collect food. How could he come back alone? Could it be that Zhang Ju's troops were tricked and the army was defeated?"
Zhang Xing cried and said: "It's not Zhang Ju's troops who have harmed us, but Qu Yi's traitor. He led his troops to attack the Jieshi Road and marched to the outside of Luling. He held a banquet for me to drink together, but I did not set up any defenses."
, got drunk by him, and then he actually took the opportunity to detain me, and then went to collect my soldiers and sent his confidants to escort me back. Later, the official sent people to investigate, and Qu Yi brought 10,000 horses.
, I went to Wuzhong County to join Xun Yu!"
"What?!"
Han Fu was shocked when he heard this.
After he was stunned for a long while, an angry expression appeared on his face.
"I sent you to follow Qu Yi because I was afraid that he, a native of Liangzhou, wouldn't be able to trust him! I asked you to accompany me to supervise my troops, but you made such a mistake and allowed Qu Yi to devour all of us. Now we have ten thousand troops.
All are lost, how can I gain a foothold in Youzhou in the future?"
"I'm sorry for Uncle Fang. I'm guilty of death. I'm guilty of death..."
"You are indeed guilty of death!"
After saying that, Han Fu stood up and shouted loudly outside the hall: "Pull him down and behead him!"
Zhang Xingnai was from Han Fu's hometown. He thought that Han Fu would spare him because of his old friendship. However, he was shocked when he heard that Han Fu wanted to kill him.
"Uncle Fang, Uncle Fang! This is all Qu Yi's fault and has nothing to do with me..."
Han Fu pointed at him tremblingly and said, "You still say it has nothing to do with you?! What you committed today was a serious crime, causing me to lose all my final authority in Youzhou. How can I spare you? Kill me!"
…
After Zhang Xing was killed, Han Fu thought about it and felt really angry. He immediately ignored Zhang Ju and took his 4,000 soldiers to Wuzhong County to see Xun Yu, vowing to ask for his death.
statement.
Xun Yu was now nominally appointed by Liu Jian with two thousand stones, and at the same time, this matter was also reported to the court.
Dong Zhuo, for his part, did not comment on this. He neither formally granted the title nor disapproved it.
Therefore, Xun Yu can still be regarded as the governor of Youbeiping County.
As the governor of Youzhou, Han Fu was nominally responsible for supervising the governors of the counties. However, his salary was not as high as that of the governors, so the governor and the governor were in a situation where they were in check with each other.
There is no need to be polite to anyone you see. Everyone can discuss matters as they arise, regardless of superiority or inferiority.
Moreover, as a native of Yingchuan, Han Fu had known Xun Yu in the past. When they met, he spoke directly and there was no need to hide it.
As soon as they met, Han Fu criticized Xun Yu:
"Xun Wenruo, you and I are officials in the same state, and we echo each other. We should work together to defeat the rebels. How can you plot against my troops? Do you want to rebel?"
As soon as Han Fu came, he shouted at Xun Yu, but Xun Yu was not angry at all.
In fact, he could somewhat understand Han Fu's current mood.
Although this matter was due to his calculations, in name, he and Han Fu were indeed officials from the same state, and both were in charge of the highest military and political affairs in the state. It was indeed unjustifiable in terms of officialdom to plot against his troops.
.
However, Xun Yu was an extraordinary person after all, and he had already expressed his opinions on this matter.
I saw a look of surprise on Xun Yu's face.
"What does Brother Wenjie mean by this? I don't know. I am running the government in Wuzhong County. When have I ever tried to recruit my brother's troops?"
Han Fu pointed at his nose tremblingly and said, "You still don't admit it? You colluded with Qu Yi to plot against ten thousand of my soldiers! Now that this matter has spread throughout the counties, you still dare to deny it?!
"
Xun Yu stood up in a hurry, poured water for Han Fu himself, and asked him to sit down.
Xun Yu handed Han Fu a cup of water and said: "Brother Wenjie, this is a huge misunderstanding. That Qu Yi is a white man, and he came to join me. I think now in Youzhou
There was a war, and the government office was short of major generals, so they took him in. How could it be that he was seeking to seize his brother's troops?"
Han Fu said angrily: "Xun Wenruo, stop pretending to be stupid, that Qu Yi's 10,000 soldiers are my soldiers!"
"Ah? This is really happening!"
"Of course there is!"
Xun Yu said in surprise: "But Qu Yi said that he is a white person."
"What Bai Shen? He is a Sima from another department under my command!"
Xun Yu frowned and said: "If this is true, this person is really abominable. As a Sima of the governor's department, he led his troops to the local county office without permission, and moved the troops without permission. He should be beheaded in public!"
Han Fu sneered and said, "Do you still know that he deserves to be beheaded?"
"Okay! That being the case, please also ask Brother Wenjie to give me the document that appoints Qu Yi as the Sima of another department. After I verify it, I will report it to General Zuo and ask him to convict him and kill Qu Yi!"
After asking this question, Han Fu was stunned.
"Wen, documents?"
"Exactly, when my brother appointed him to the military position, didn't he record it or report it to the court?"
Han Fu suddenly became wilted.
When Qu Yi led his troops to defect to him, it was when Han Fu responded to Yuan Shao's order and led his troops south to attack Dong Zhuo.
At that time, he verbally appointed Qu Yi as Sima of another department. However, if the military position of Qian Shi was to follow the formal procedure, it would need to be reported to the imperial court and filed with the central government. Then the imperial court would issue the appointment and plan to engrave it. At the same time, it would be appointed by Han Fu.
The imperial court of the Border Dynasty granted the seal.
But the problem is, the situation at that time... Han Fu couldn't register!
Now he can't report it to the court.
Han Fu was the governor of Youzhou appointed by Dong Zhuo himself. He was appointed by Dong Zhuo in order to win over the local nobles. However, as soon as he took office, he immediately rebelled and joined Yuan Shao in his crusade against Dong Zhuo...
Han Fu is now writing to the central government to appoint and remove officials. How can the central government give him a reply?
To be precise, how could Dong Zhuo give him an answer?
In Dong Zhuo's eyes, Han Fu was a rebel, and the officials appointed by the rebels were also rebels. How could he be registered with the central government?
In this way, Qu Yi, who has not gone through the formal procedures, is in a certain sense a white body!
The Sima given to him by Han Fu is now empty talk without any supporting evidence.
Facing Xun Yu who looked sincere, Han Fu's face turned red.
He pointed at Xun Yu tremblingly and said angrily: "Xun Wenruo, you and I are fellow villagers, and you actually teamed up with the Liangzhou dogs to bully me!"
Xun Yu sighed: "Brother Wenjie, I just respect the rules and regulations of the imperial court. How can I be insulted? Could it be that I don't act in accordance with the imperial regulations and act for personal gain based on the friendship between my fellow villagers? I collaborated with you to kill Qu Yi, but I still can't get the money."
If you can provide supporting evidence, then that’s right?”
"You...you..."
Han Fu suddenly lowered his head and reached out to cover his chest, dripping with cold sweat.
It seems that my chest hurts due to anger.
"Brother Wenjie, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't touch me!"
Han Fu gritted his teeth and said, "Where is Qu Yi? I want to confront him face to face!"
Xun Yu sighed: "Qu Yi has already gone to Yecheng to see General Zuo."
"What? What did he do in Yecheng?"
Xun Yu said solemnly: "Qu Yi's white body brought ten thousand righteous followers to join the army. How can we, in just one county, be able to recruit so many soldiers? Now during the war, among all the counties in Hebei, only General Zuo has the ability."
With the authority of Jie Jie Yue, I will recommend Qu Yi to General Zuo and ask him to authorize the appointment and stipulate the ownership of these ten thousand soldiers...Brother Wen Jie, you said that I swallowed up your soldiers and horses, but you see
Look, everything I do is in accordance with the regulations, and I have never exceeded them at all."
"You, you... you can do it! You are powerful! Are you using the regulations to pressure me? Believe it or not, I will report to the court now and take full responsibility for Chen Ru's crimes!"
Xun Yu sighed and said: "Brother, if you want to report to the imperial court, I should also report to the imperial court and tell the full story to prove your innocence."
The muscles on Han Fu's face twitched back and forth.
There were frequent conflicts between the governor and the governor, so they often needed to report to the Ming court to determine right from wrong.
The merits cannot be distinguished, and the verdict of the case is usually more favorable to the one who has the governor first.
Therefore, in the case of Han Fu and Xun Yu, it stands to reason that whichever of the two parties’ envoys arrives in the capital first will be able to take the initiative.
But that's only under normal circumstances.
But now Han Fu has registered with Dong Zhuo.
If they want to report it at the same time now, there is no doubt that as long as Xun Yu finds a way to let Dong Zhuo know about it, Han Fu will be exhausted and unable to complain in the capital.
Even if the tooth is broken, it has to be swallowed into the stomach.
In the end, Han Fu slapped the table with grief and anger.
"Didn't Qu Yi go to Yecheng? I'll go too! I don't believe it, and I can't make sense of it!"
