There was a "pop". Zhang Ning threw the token in front of Liu Pi fiercely. Then vigorously waved the long sword in his hand. A gust of wind blew her face. Liu Pi closed his eyes in despair. But Zhang Ning resolutely said: "You have listened to me. From now on there is no peace in this world."
Liu Pi opened his eyes. Only then discovered that Zhang Ning's sword was not slashing at him. Instead, the token was chopped into two pieces. Liu Pi opened his mouth and wanted to speak. But he couldn't send a word. Obviously, he was frightened by the sword just now.
In fact, Zhang Ning threw the token in front of Liu Pi. Originally wanted to tell him to betray his young master. That is to be punished by Dao regulations. And the sword just now really wanted to stab Liu Pi. But the moment it was swung down. Zhang Ning suddenly remembered the military regulations of the Han Dynasty mentioned by Xu Huang. The hand was sideways. The sword was cut on the token. At first glance, the token was split in half. Zhang Ning also looked stagnant. Zhang Ning is very smart. She reacted immediately. Simply announced the complete dissolution of Peace Road.
The Dahan Military Regulations prohibits abuse of prisoners. Of course, it is not allowed to execute the surrendered generals privately. Xu Huang has always abide by military regulations. It is impossible for him to kill these prisoners. Including Liu Pi. But Xu Huang also saw that Zhang Ning hated Liu Pi extremely. When Zhang Ning lifted his sword and slashed past. Xu Huang didn't say anything to stop it.
Xu Huang has already thought about it. As long as Zhang Ning can resolve the hatred. Even if he was punished by military discipline, it was nothing. Besides, Zhang Ning is not a member of the army. She was not considered a violation of military discipline when she killed Liu Pi.
Seeing Zhang Ning's wrist flicked. The token was cleaved. There is no need for Zhang Ning to explain. Xu Huang knew why she changed her mind temporarily. This is the tacit understanding between husband and wife.
Xu Huang walked over gently. Bend down and picked up the broken token from the ground. Slowly handed it to Zhang Ning's hand. Said: "Ning'er. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you have a token. You have a token. Liu Pei still doesn’t listen to you. The lord’s words are right. Who can make the people live a good life? The people will stand by. Whose side. But. This voice token is a remembrance your father left for you. Let's keep it well."
Zhang Ning held the two tokens in his hand. Tears flashed in his eyes. Nodded vigorously. Can't speak anymore.
Gong Du couldn't help but step forward. He said bitterly: "General Xu. Young Master. Oh. No. Mrs. Xu. Did you just let Liu Pi off just like that."
Xu Huangmo said blankly: "Fortunately, he chose to surrender. According to Dahan's military regulations. Under normal circumstances, he will not be sentenced to death. Let him save his life. Let's see how the lord will send it."
Liu Pi heard that he would not be sentenced to death. Could not help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although I can't get this favorite beauty in front of me. But it's better than losing your life.
A large camp has been planted on the riverfront near Linhu County. Liu Xin's temporary command post was also transferred from the building to the shore. The war situation from all over the place was reported as snow flakes. Let Liu Xin have joys and worries.
Gao Shun defeated Ji Ling in three consecutive battles. Not only severely damaged Ji Ling's army. And completely drove Ji Ling out of Jiujiang. What makes Liu Xin most happy is. Gao Shun did not rely on personal valor during the battle. But relying on the overall combat power of the three armies. This fully proves that Liu Xin's decision is correct.
There is one more comforting thing. That is, Zhang Ning has been successfully rescued by Xu Huang. Liu Xin immediately gave Xu Huang two orders. One is to order him to send Zhang Ning back to Xiangyang to recuperate. The second is that the army continues to move south. Quickly capture the entire territory of Runan.
but. The news sent by Zhang Xi made Liu Xin's mood suddenly drop to a freezing point. If not for this news. He has almost forgotten that there is such a figure as Juchaohou Liu Bang.
There is no blood relationship between Liu Xin and Liu Bang. Even Liu Xin had never seen Liu Bang's appearance. The so-called "eldest son". It was just a key part of the deal between him and Juchaohou Liu Zhong.
Where did Liu Zhong get this child to pretend to be Liu Xin's eldest son? Liu Xin knew nothing. So to Liu Bang. Liu Xin naturally felt nothing.
For Liu Zhong. Liu Xin can't talk about resentment. Although in accordance with the regulations. The position of living in Chaohou should have belonged to Liu Xin. But Liu Xin's identity as the emperor's relative was also pretended to be. Compared with Liu Zhong, it can be said to be half a catty. Moreover. If it hadn't been for Liu Chong's back then. Liu Xin would not be the prefect of Hejian. There is no such thing as today. From this point of view alone. Liu Xin should also thank Liu Zhongcai. Things in this world are probably like this. Which is right or wrong. Who can make it clear.
Since this is the case. Liu Xin could completely ignore Yuan Shu's act of holding Liu Bang as a hostage. Directly ordered the siege. but. When I saw Zhang Xi mentioned in the letter. The child was only eleven or twelve years old. Liu Xin hesitated again. After all, this Liu Bang is just a child. No matter how desperate Liu Zhong was towards Liu Xin back then. But children are innocent. Liu Xin can't put this young child in desperation because of her own selfishness.
Besides, although this incident happened ten years ago. It seems to have been gradually forgotten by people. But since Yuan Shu can remember to use Liu Bang to threaten himself. Then other people will not completely forget this matter. After all, this matter was praised by Liu Hong. It was a sensation.
Tiger poison does not eat seeds. If Liu Xin launches an attack hastily. As a result, Liu Bang died by the hands of Yuan Shu. It is inevitable that people will be labeled as inferior to animals, selfish and cold-blooded. Liu Xin is the most powerful prince. His every move will naturally fall into the eyes of the caring people. Especially the two great enemies of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. I will never let go of this opportunity to slander Liu Xin.
It was because of Cai Yan. Liu Xin suffered all the slander from Hedong Wei's family. It really made him suffer. Now Liu Xinzhi is in the world. Pay more attention to maintaining your own image. If because of Liu Bang's matter, his reputation is discredited. It's not worth it.
but. Liu Xin couldn't control Liu Bang because of Yuan Shu. Just tolerate Yuan Shu blindly. Unless you can find a way to rescue Liu Bang. otherwise. He will always be pinched by Yuan Shu. And Yuan Shu must now also know the importance of Liu Bang. The control over him will be tighter. I'm afraid it's harder to rescue than to reach the sky.
Jushou saw Liu Xin frown. He folded his hands and said, "The lord once said something in Xiangyang. I wonder if the lord remembers it."
Liu Xin looked at Jushou in surprise. I live in Xiangyang most of the time. Too much to say. How do you know which sentence Ju Zhi asked.
Jushou certainly understood what Liu Xin was worried about. He is Liu Xin's most trusted counselor. Naturally, we must find a perfect solution for Liu Xin. Seeing Liu Xin was silent. Jushou reminded: "It was in Xiangyang that year. Han Dang tried to kidnap the eldest son."
Liu Xin suddenly realized. I did say it back then. Don't say that he kidnapped his son. Even if I kidnapped him. Don't even want to coerce him. Jushou's meaning is obvious. That is to persuade him not to care about Liu Bang. Just attack the city directly.
Liu Xin couldn't help but smile. The situation back then was completely different from now. At that time, Liu Yu did not fall into Han Dang's hands. He didn't have a backache while standing and talking. If Liu Yu is really caught by Han Dang. Liu Xin is sure. I can't make this determination myself. It's different now. Liu Bang was detained at the head of the city. There was a steel knife on his neck. The initiative was completely in Yuan Shu's hands. It's just that no one knows. Liu Bang is not his son.
Jushou certainly didn't know that Liu Bang was not Liu Xin's biological son. Otherwise, he would have been more determined to persuade Liu Xin to issue a siege order. But in the concept of judging these people. Now that Liu Bang has adopted it to Liu Zhong. Then he inherited the incense stick of Liu Zhong. It has nothing to do with Liu Xin. Liu Xin didn't need to be bound by this. And Jushou has a deeper reason, but it is inconvenient to explain.
Liu Xin shook his head. Said: "Let Liu think about it again. The order is to Zhang Xi. Keep the roads and passes around Lujiang City. Yuan Shu must not be allowed to escape."
Ju teach the heart to understand. The Chuanguo Yuxi is now in Yuan Shu's hands. Of course Yuan Shu could not be allowed to slip away. Just control Yuan Shu. Are you afraid that the Chuan Guoyu Seal will be lost again? He promised. He said, "Knowing the lord. I thought that Lujiang City would be able to go down in ten days. General Zhang didn't carry much grain and grass in the camp. It needs to be transported in time."
Liu Xin waved her hand. Said: "How much grain and grass should be transported. You can calculate it. Let Taishi Ciyun pass. Tell Zhang Yun. You must save Liu Bang's life."
Ju Zuo was taken aback for a moment. He walked out. He could clearly feel that Liu Xin mentioned Liu Bang very plainly. Not at all like a father and son. However, Liu Xin emphasized the need to preserve Liu Bang's life. Makes him a little confused. I don't know what Liu Xin plans to do next.
at this time. Liu Bei, who was rubbing along the border of Runan, also received an order from Yuan Shu to let him return to his teacher. Lujiang is empty. Liu Bei is clear. He has also been waiting for this opportunity. Received the order. Liu Bei did not immediately send the bridge back to Lujiang. Instead, he was invited into the big account. Pretend to discuss with him.
Liu Bei handed the documents sent by Yuan Shu to Qiaoyu. He groaned: "Your Majesty ordered Liu Bei to return to his teacher immediately. Liu feels embarrassed. Liu has toiled his teacher on this expedition. He will return without a battle. Yu Jun's heart may be in serious trouble. I don't know what General Qiao has any ideas."
The bridge protactinium is just a martial artist. No idea. After listening to Liu Bei's words. He immediately arched his hands and said: "General Liu. Your fate is hard to violate. Since your Majesty asked us to go back. Then let's go back. Why don't we need to think more."
Liu Bei didn't expect him to come up with any ideas. I couldn't help but smiled and said, "I will judge the situation for the general. If I retreat at this time, the Yellow Turban will definitely be excited. I want to conquer again in the future. I am afraid it will be done twice with half the effort."
Qiao Ruo said without hesitation: "General Liu is the head coach of the three armies. The general will follow the general's arrangements."
Liu Bei was waiting for his words. Can't help smiling. Just about to order. Ten thousand troops were divided to let the bridge back to Lujiang. Suddenly a soldier rushed in from outside the tent. The expression hurriedly said, "Teach me to General. Mr. Jane wants to see you."
