Chapter 151: Qu Yi and Xu Huang and the Monthly Pass)
On the way back to the prefect's mansion, Han Hao's face turned green.
The reason for the green color is simply because the potter had been playing with a piece of clear mud inkstone on the road.
If Han Hao admits his mistake correctly, this inkstone looks exactly like the one in Sima Mansion just now.
What's deplorable is that the potter said it was his.
Inkstone brothers who look so similar?
I was staring at him so closely, but he still got it. I had no idea when he got it.
Han Hao felt that he was a failure as a human being and could not face his fellow villagers and elders in Hanoi.
When they arrived at the prefect's residence, the pottery merchant was not idle, and immediately began to study the affairs of the young prince Yu Fuluo with Han Hao.
"Yufuluo is currently stationed in the east of Hedong. The number of Huns soldiers under his command will not be too many. However, with our Hanoi soldiers and horses and the 500 soldiers of Master Tao, it will still be difficult to fight with him. We have to wait for Qu Yi's soldiers and horses.
Only when we arrive are we sure of it, and Zhang Yang is still being detained by him. If he acts rashly, Zhang Yang's life may be hurt. We are not sure whether Yuan Shao wants to save Zhang Yang."
The pottery merchant felt very satisfied after listening to Han Hao's analysis.
He stayed here to help suppress the situation purely for Yuan Shao's face. If he really wanted the Xuzhou army to fight against Yu Fuluo, Tao Shang felt that he couldn't do it.
With a capable army commander like Qu Yi leading the crowd, there was no chance for him to show off. However, it seemed that Yuan Shao was really angry this time and was determined to deal with this traitorous little prince.
"When will Qu Yi's troops arrive?"
Han Hao calculated the time and itinerary with his fingers, and after a while he said: "If nothing else happens, it should be in the next day or two. Then we will join forces with him and head to Hedong."
…
Han Hao calculated the date very accurately. Two days later, Yuan Jun led by Qu Yi arrived in Hanoi.
Tao Shang finally took this opportunity to meet this famous Hebei general who could be called the most powerful under Yuan Shao.
Qu Yi was originally a general under Han Fu, but he rebelled locally because of conflicts with Han Fu. Han Fu naturally sent troops to conquer him.
The sad thing is that Han Fu, as the leader of a state in Jizhou, was defeated by Qu Yi, a rebel general, and he beat the shit out of him... I don't know whether Han Fu deliberately let things go, or whether Qu Yi was too powerful.
Potters know that Qu Yi has outstanding achievements in history.
In Yuan Shao's many battles to pacify Hebei, Qu Yi's achievements were undoubtedly among the best. Especially when Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan fought for the supremacy of Hebei, the effective forces under Gongsun Zan were basically wiped out by Qu Yi. Unfortunately, he was also because of
He was arrogant and was executed by Yuan Shao.
When Tao Shang met Qu Yi for the first time, he could tell that this man was full of pride.
It was not that Qu Yi deliberately showed arrogance in front of the pottery merchant. On the contrary, Qu Yi was very polite to the pottery merchant and Han Hao.
But it's a pity that his arrogance is deeply engraved in his bones, and he has a pure and arrogant temperament.
Some people are born to look gentle, some people are born to look cunning, and some people look to be very smart.
Qu Yi has a unique temperament, and he seems to be very cool by nature... he can pretend to be cool.
"According to the order of Duke Yuan, I came here to suppress the rebellious Xiongnu Yu Fuluo. On the one hand, I sought justice for the prince, and on the other hand, I saved Duke Zhang Yang from the tiger's mouth. I got Master Tao and Han to help me. I am extremely grateful." Qu Yi.
He spoke very politely, which was incompatible with his aggressive and coaxing temperament.
"General Qu, you're welcome. Tao doesn't have many troops in Hanoi. He only has five hundred ordinary infantry. Most of them stayed at the Yellow River ferry to guard the Baibo bandits. General Qu, please don't be offended." Tao Shang spoke politely.
Showing both humility and easy-going.
Tao Shang's performance made Qu Yi feel very comfortable. When he came, he had secretly received Yuan Shao's instructions to treat the Tao master well.
Although he did not know the specific relationship between Yuan Shao and the pottery merchant, Qu Yi understood to some extent that the pottery merchant must have had some kind of commitment with Yuan Shao in private, otherwise Yuan Shao would not have paid special attention to him.
In this way, Mr. Tao and himself can be regarded as colleagues.
"Young Master Tao, I once heard from Mr. Yuan that at the end of last year, the young master led a group of people to the north to defeat the Baibo bandits. It took several months to finally achieve something. I should have accomplished all the work and returned to my hometown to enjoy myself in the lap of Tao Shijun. However, something unexpected happened.
, I never thought that the Xiongnu thief Yu Fuluo would openly betray me. He first used a trick to kill the prince, and then took Duke Zhang as a hostage. It was really treasonous! Duke Yuan ordered me to capture this beast in due time, so I asked the young master to suffer for a few days.
, after Yi defeats the Xiongnu, we will return east together, and Yi himself will go to Liyang to send the young master back to Xuzhou."
Tao Shang waved his hand and said with a smile: "General Qu is so polite. It's really an honor for Tao to help Mr. Yuan. But I don't know much about what is going on between Yu Fuluo and Mr. Yuan?"
What Tao Shang asked was what Han Hao wanted to know. After all, it was related to Wang Kuang's death, so he couldn't help but be concerned about it.
Han Hao immediately pricked up his ears and listened.
Qu Yi said helplessly: "It's shameful to say that on that day, Duke Yuan, Prince Fu, and Duke Zhang Yang jointly raised troops to attack Dong Zhuo and stationed troops in Hanoi. It happened that Yu Fuluo asked for his sincerity to join forces. At that time, Duke Yuan saw that Dong's thieves were powerful, so he thought a lot about it.
An ally is always a good thing. For a moment, he was soft-hearted and took Fuluo under his command. Zhuo Qi and Duke Zhang Yang stationed troops in Zhangshui. Unexpectedly, they did not want to see this big man in such troubled times, so he became rebellious and took Duke Zhang Yang hostage without saying a word.
He also sent troops to Baibo Valley to inquire about the news. On the one hand, Prince Wangfu sent someone to inform Duke Yuan, and on the other hand, he personally led the troops to Zhangshui to find out the true story. He did not want Yu Fulo to use Zhang Yanggong's seal ribbon to trick Prince Prince into going deep, and set up troops to ambush him, killing Prince Wangfu.
.”
At this point, Qu Yi showed a righteous expression again and said angrily: "The Xiongnu thief Zituan is so rampant that after committing such treason, he actually sent people to Yuan Gong and invited Yuan Gong to rebel with him.
Han, after the event is completed, the Han family will be equally divided into the world, which is simply ridiculous!" (It sounds a bit ridiculous, but this happened in history.)
The potter was very speechless after hearing this... This little prince of Fuluo, isn't his head a bit funny?
He is a poor prince of the Southern Huns. His own ethnic group can no longer survive. It would be good if he can find a place to eat under Yuan Shao... Now he actually overestimates his capabilities and plans to overthrow the Han Dynasty?
You are just a smuggler, and it’s okay to overthrow the Han Dynasty with your whims... But what is speechless is that you actually want to recruit Yuan Shao to join the gang?
After four generations and three noble families, would you give up the reputation of a famous family for many years and go to Manna to attack cities and plunder land with you, a national scoundrel? This is the same as opening your own door and letting thieves in.
What's the difference between helping the thief count the money and then serving him tea and water?
This little Hun prince is waiting for death!
It would have been better if he didn't send someone to invite Yuan Shao to rebel. With his invitation, Yuan Shao would have no choice but to kill him in order to show off his innocence.
It seems that the little prince did not inherit the throne and his head was somewhat stimulated, which cannot be treated with ordinary people's thoughts.
"This Prince Zaifuluo... is really an unparalleled genius." The pottery merchant sighed with emotion, shaking his head with a wry smile that seemed to be sarcastic or mocking.
Qu Yi said "hmm" as a sign of agreement with Tao Shang's words, and then asked Han Hao: "Han Hao, I wonder where Yu Fuluo's troops are stationed now?"
Han Hao said respectfully: "After taking Duke Zhang Yang hostage, Yu Fuluo's soldiers and horses were all stationed near Yang County in the east of the river. There has been no movement for the time being."
"I see."
Qu Yi nodded and said: "Master Tao, Han Zhengzheng, it's not too late. Let's go to Yang County as quickly as possible to defeat the thief as soon as possible. This can also be regarded as an early explanation to the deceased Wang Fujun."
"General Qu, please be patient." Tao Shang calmly analyzed Qu Yi: "Yu Fuluo has Zhang Yanggong in his hands, so he is quite confident. And I heard that his troops have repeatedly invaded Hedong in recent years. I think the local officials and people in Hedong must be worried about this."
He also hated it deeply, so he might as well ask Han Jing to write a letter and deliver it to the governor of Hedong County, asking him to help, or coordinate or guide, to deal with foreigners in a unified manner. The governor of Hedong would not refuse... By the way,
Who is the governor of Hedong now?"
Han Hao was speechless.
The plan was very well done, which proved that the young master's wisdom was indeed extraordinary, but what was helpless was that the young master came up with the strategy but he didn't even know who the governor of Hedong was.
The basic skills are not up to par.
"The governor of Hedong is a disciple of the late old Taiwei Liu Kuan. He is a native of Wangyi, Niyang in the north. He has a good reputation and is quite popular among the officials and people in Hedong."
Qu Yi nodded and said: "Okay, in that case, I'll trouble Han Cheng to send someone to write a letter to Wang Yi in the name of acting as the governor of Hanoi. We will set off quickly to Yang County, Hedong to defeat the enemy."
The calculation between Tao Shang, Qu Yi, Han Hao and others was settled. Han Hao immediately ordered the 3,000 Taishan troops in Hanoi, plus Tao Shang's 500 infantry, and followed Qu Yi's troops to head for Yang, Hedong County.
Go to the county.
Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, was an upright and upright man. After receiving Han Hao's letter, he immediately responded to the letter. Chen Minghui sent Hedong County soldier Cao Shenjun to lead 300 county soldiers as a guide to lead Qu Yi, Tao Shang and others to eliminate Yu Fu.
Luo.
Qu Yi's marching speed was very fast.
It was a journey of more than 600 miles from Huai County to Yang County. Qu Yi supervised the troops and arrived at the destination in only four days.
This kind of traveling is very difficult for the pottery merchants, but the Huns are nomadic people after all. They are scurrying eastward today and westward tomorrow. They usually do not stay in the same place for too long. Especially the little prince Humphrey is among the mobile people.
Those who are still deported are not much different from homeless people. If you want to catch such people, you must speed up your time.
After stumbling to reach Yang County, Cao Canjun, a soldier sent by Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong Province, had led 300 troops from Hedong counties and was waiting for Qu Yi and others.
The soldier who joined the army was in his prime, with a thin and upright face, and a long beard under his chin. The accompanying personal guard behind him held a weapon for him, which was a mountain-breaking ax.
"Under the tent of the Prince of Hedong, the soldier Cao Xu Huang has been ordered to greet you all here."
