Zhang Fei burst into the enemy's camp, and the eight-snake spear in his hand flew up and down. Those sleepy-eyed soldiers had no time to put on their armor and hurried out of the tent. In a blink of an eye, they became a ghost under the sword. Zhang Fei was holding the tip of his spear. A corpse yelled: "Set fire, set fire, quickly, burn it all to me, burn it,"
The soldiers who carried out the surprise attack originally carried torches, and it was more convenient to set fire than to kill. It instantly became a sea of flames.
Liu Bei saw the flames of the camp outside the city, and he repeatedly stopped his feet. He regretted his negligence. He never expected that Liu Xin's crew would come so quickly, so he said, "Master Zheng, you immediately Mobilize Minzhuang to strengthen the city defense, General Bridge, you go out of the city to gather the crowds, and Liu then responds."
At this time, he was out of the city. The danger is conceivable, but Liu Bei is the commander of the three armed forces. Bridges had to bite the bullet and go out of the city. He hadn't come to the camp outside the city. He heard a burst of shouts. Numerous torches lit up on both sides of the road and ambushed. Around the time, one of the first generals held a spear and shouted loudly: "Yan Yan is here, and those who come will not get off the horse and be bound,"
The bridge protagonist had no choice but to greet him with a gun. Seeing the raging fire in the barracks in front, he encountered an ambush again. The bridge protagonist was even more frightened. The two horses crossed each other. Yan Yan shouted, fired a shot and pierced the bridge under the horse, and another shot killed him.
Yan Yan was not bloodthirsty at first, but he stayed with Zhang Fei for a long time. Under his influence, he turned around and shouted "Kill," and in a blink of an eye the group of soldiers brought by the bridge was killed. Scattered,
However, Liu Bei kept an eye on him. He said that he would respond later. In fact, he had already oiled the soles of his feet and rushed towards Dabie Mountain. When the army was approaching Anfeng County, Liu Bei quietly asked Jian Yong to lead a team of men and horses. Entering the Dabie Mountains, Dabie Mountains are hundreds of miles away. Although Zhang Fei also came here over the Dabie Mountains, it is difficult to come across Jian Yong’s team. Jian Yong’s people also carry a lot of food, even if Liu Bei leads it. Hundreds of soldiers hid together, and even if it was a year or a half later, it was safe to be discovered. It can be said to be safe for the time being.
But he said that Tai Shi Ci ordered all the people and escorted a large amount of grain and grass and was waiting to set off, but heard someone shouting behind him: "General Ziyi wait a minute, wait for someone to send him off to the general."
Tai Shici looked back, but it was Jushou, hurriedly politely said: "How can I, the last general, how dare I have General Lao send him away,"
Jushou walked closer and made a gesture to Tai Shici, and said, "Please take a step for the military to speak."
Tai Shici knew that Jushou was not only in a high position, but also one of the few people Liu Xin trusted most. Judging from Jushou's posture, it seemed that there was something secret to tell him. He quickly jumped off his horse, walked to a quiet place, and said, " Dare to ask Master Ju, is there anything else the lord has to order?"
Jushou waved his hand and said, "The lord's command, the general already knows, so Ju will not say any more. Ju has heard that General Ju has shot, and there is something to ask."
Tai Shici was quite conceited about his archery skills. After he returned to Liu Xin, he was given a strong bow, which was even more powerful, but he had never had the opportunity to show it. Now it seems that the matter of hearing Jushui begging himself is related to bows and arrows. Tai Shici couldn't help but laughed, and said: "The final general's bow and arrows are not satisfactory, but the finalist is not quite satisfactory. The final general dare not follow his orders, please express clearly."
Jushou put a smile on his face, and said in a deep voice, "The general situation in Lujiang must have been clear to the general. Although the general is only responsible for escorting grain and grass, Ju has a big thing to ask the general. Please find a chance and shoot the general with one arrow. Liu Bang,"
"Ah," Tai Shici said silently, "This action violates the Lord's military order, the final general..."
Jushou hurriedly made a silent gesture, and said with a serious face: "This matter is of great importance. The general must not speak to outsiders."
Tai Shici recovered a little from the shock and hesitated: "The final general has already heard that Liu Bang is the lord's eldest son. I don't know if what Ju Master said was the order of the lord, or whether Ju Master made his own opinion,"
"The lord is benevolent by nature, so how can I give this order? This is Ju Mou's own idea, and I hope the general never tells the lord," Ju Shou shook his head, took out a golden thing from his arms, and handed it to Tai Shi Ci said in the hand, "This is the exemption gold medal awarded by the lord to Ju Mou, which can save anyone from the death penalty. Ju Mou now transfers this gold medal to the general, and the general can be assured of worry-free."
"This thing is too precious, I will never dare to take it," Tai Shici pushed with both hands, and said sternly, "If Master Ju can't give a convincing reason today, he will not only not obey his life, but also report it. Go to the lord,"
Tai Shici acted openly and honestly. Under normal circumstances, he disdains to make small reports, but this matter involves the safety of Liu Xin's "eldest son", so he had to tell Jushou clearly that it is impossible for him to know and not report.
When it came to this, Jushou had no choice but to say: "General Ziyi should also know that whether he can win Lujiang is very important to the lord's great cause."
Tai Shi Ci frowned and said flatly: "This will be known naturally, but it can't be used as a reason for hurting the life of the eldest son,"
Jushou sighed and said, "The general needs to figure out one thing. Although Liu Bang is the eldest son of the lord, but he has been adopted to Juchaohou, he is not considered the eldest son. The real eldest son is Liu Yu from Xiangyang. , Tell the general the truth, the lord will definitely sit in the world in the future, and the crown prince will be the chief and the protagonist. Then you will say whether you should establish Liu Bang or Liu Yu,"
Tai Shi Ci had long heard about Liu Xin’s going to sit in the world, but from Jushou’s mouth, the meaning was absolutely different. Tai Shi Ci couldn’t help being refreshed. He had already followed Liu Xin before he became emperor. He, that’s the merit of Conglong,
Although Tai Shici is only a military commander, he is also quite knowledgeable. Liu Bang has been passed on to others since he was a child. Liu Xin wanted to come and be closer to Liu Yu naturally. He is more likely to pass the throne to Liu Yu in the future. But Liu Bang is also the eldest son. When he was in charge, Liu Xin would definitely have trouble with this matter.
Jushou’s words are for this purpose. Of course, Tai Shici understands that Jushou let him shoot Liu Bang, not just to break the "human shield" in Yuan Shu's hand, but to help Liu Xin eliminate the "hidden danger", just this "hidden danger." But it is Liu Xin’s biological son, asking him to do this is indeed a dilemma.
In fact, this is all because they don’t know the truth of the matter. Otherwise, people who do big things like Jushou and Taishici will never feel the slightest softness when facing this kind of problem.
Seeing the change on Tai Shici’s face, Jushou once again stuffed the gold medal in his hand, and said, “Please rest assured, General Ziyi, this gold medal is enough to ensure your safety, and when the time comes, Ju will also tell the lord. It is clear that all of this is a plan of Ju, and it is undertaken by Ju, and has nothing to do with the general."
Because Huang Zhong and Wei Yan didn’t stop their subordinates from killing and surrendering in time, they were almost executed by Liu Xin. It was this small gold medal that saved them in the end. That incident has become an important case for recruits to join the army to learn military discipline. Of course, Tai Shi Ci I’ve also heard of it, and I understand that Jushou’s words are true, but the target of this shot is too embarrassing for him.
However, Jushou was only a literati, but he was able to say the words to bear all the consequences and give himself the gold medal for saving his life, which really made Tai Shici admire him with admiration. Tai Shici couldn't help being proud, and said, "The final general has already understood Master Ju. Please don’t worry, Lord Ju, for your hard work.
With a smile on Jushou's face, he waved goodbye to Tai Shi Ci. The idea of shooting Liu Bang was not a whim, but a decision made after careful consideration. The key to achieving this is to convince Tai Shi Ci, and now he finally got his wish. ,
As Jushou said to Tai Shici just now, the fundamental reason why Liu Bang had to die was the determination of the future prince. From the letter sent by Zhang Yun, Jushou already knew that Liu Bang had long been inhumane under Yuan Shu’s threats. Crying blindly to his father and mother, if such a person becomes a prince in the future, the prospects of the Han Dynasty will be bad.
When Liu Yu was ambushed by Han Dang, he was only eight years old, but he was able to face danger and resist desperately. This is Jushou's hope for the future of the big man. And for so many years, Liu Yu has been receiving formal education at Xiangyang Academy, and he is capable of civil and military skills. Obviously it is higher than the timid and weak is Bang. More importantly, Jushou can be said to have watched Liu Yu grow up, and he naturally wants to be closer to Liu Yu.
It stands to reason that Liu Bang is not necessarily qualified to compete with Liu Yu for the reserve, because he has passed Liu Zhong, and the relationship with Liu Xin should be an uncle and nephew, but who can be sure that Liu Xin a hundred years later, this Liu Bang will not He will come to fight for the throne with Liu Yu. After all, he is Liu Xin’s eldest son. No one knows his secret ambition in the future. Will it be the time when the world will be in chaos
Historically, when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was in trouble, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao’s counsellors offered their own advice. At that time, it was Jushou who persuaded Yuan Shao to welcome Liu Xie, but Jushou said "hold the emperor in order to command the princes." But it means "to serve the emperor to order not to be ministers." These two sentences have similar meanings and the same goals, but they are far from each other in realm.
Jushou’s character can be seen from the different attitudes toward Han Xiandi, and he has been in charge of Phantom for many years, and he has been exposed to too many dark side things. Only then did he think of starting with an eleven or twelve-year-old child. It’s no surprise. Yes, besides, in the era when life was in desperate need, death was nothing at all. However, Jushou’s loyalty to Liu Xin is unquestionable. After all, Liu Bang is Liu Xin’s eldest son, and he has done a good job. With the intention of paying for Liu Bang’s life, he gave the precious death-free gold medal to Tai Shi Ci.
After a day of arduous marching, Tai Shici took this mysterious mission to the Zhang Yun barracks outside Lujiang City.
