The person who came in was called Song Qian, whose name was indifferent. The world is full of indifference, but this person is not so indifferent. Liu Bei's public opinion offensive is okay to deceive the common people, but it is not so good for this Song Qian, after all People who have read books will not be brainwashed like those ordinary people, so in order to survive, Liu Mang's army surrendered as soon as they captured the warehouse. Not only did they surrender, but they also gained glory and wealth, or Liu Mang's attention , this person took the lead in counting the accounts with Liu Mangjun.
"His Royal Highness King Shu, His Royal Highness King Shu!" The first thing Song Qian did when he entered the storage warehouse was to shout a few times, with joy in his tone, because he Song Qian found several dark storage warehouses, that is, half-buried warehouses. There are even a lot of gold and silver in the food, grass and horses in the ground. The more things you find, the happier Liu Mang will be. Once Liu Mang is happy, there will be less rewards from Song Qian.
"Report, Your Highness, I have not disrespected the lord's mission, and found four dark warehouses in the warehouse, with a total of four thousand stones of grain, three thousand gold, and countless jewels!"
"Oh? There's still a dark storehouse!" Liu Mang was really happy. He won Yingshang, got so much food and grass, and made Mi Fang surrender. Now this Song Qian has found four thousand stones again. With gold, silver and jewelry, no one would dislike having a lot of money in their hands.
"Zifang, a Yingshang can have tens of thousands of stones, grain, grass, and such gold. It seems that this Liu Daer has a lot of background. When Zifang finishes washing, he must have a knee-to-neck conversation with Wang!" The grain and grass are gold, so should there be more Runan, the capital of Yuzhou, because Runan is Liu Bei's lair, if it is captured there, the danger of Yangzhou's grain and grass may be lifted. Liu Mang will need Mi Fang to tell Liu Mang a rough figure later. There is also the arrangement of soldiers and horses of Liu Beibing who is now in Runan.
"Zi Fang?!" Song Qian was only concerned with announcing the good news. Naturally, he subconsciously forgot about the people around him. At first, Liu Mang was still praising him, which made Song Qian overjoyed, but now another person appeared, which made Song Qian subconsciously feel dissatisfied. Turning his head to see who snatched Song Qian's family in front of Liu Wei, he raised his head and shouted habitually, "General Mi! Mistress!"
These two titles come out. Mi Fang's complexion changed drastically.
If Mi Fang's expression didn't change, maybe Liu Mang wouldn't pay attention, but when Mi Fang saw Song Qian yelling these two names, something went wrong instantly, which made Liu Mang a bit suspicious.
"Mistress?!" Liu Mang chewed on this title. In fact, this title is nothing. In the Han Dynasty, the title of lord was a title that the retainers gave to the head of the family, which was equivalent to the meaning of the head of the family, and the mistress was the wife of the lord. , if Song Qian is a retainer of Mi Fang's family. It is understandable to call this woman Mistress, but he did not call Mi Fang Mistress. Instead, he was called General Mi, which is an official title, which means that this Song Qian is not Mi Fang's retainer, so it is a bit intriguing, who is this mistress calling.
Listening to Liu Mang chewing on these two words, Mi Fang's expression turned pale. Liu Mang's heart was slightly moved.
"Song Qian, is your mistress the He family's mistress!" Liu Mang looked at the woman and asked Song Qian.
"Yes!" Song Qian also reacted, shaking his head, he is no longer under Liu Beijun's command.
"Song Qian, how dare you!" Just as Song Qian was about to say it, Mi Fang stepped forward and grabbed Song Qian so that you could not speak. You must know that although Mi Fang is only a second-rate military general, it is still very difficult to strangle a scribe. To put it simply, after Mi Fang said that he wanted to surrender, Liu Mang asked someone to untie the rope from Mi Fang's body. The human throat and bones are very fragile, and if he uses too much force, he can be killed on the spot!
Mi Fang is fast, but someone is faster than him. This person is Huang Zhong who is standing aside. Huang Zhong grabbed Mi Fang's hand when Mi Fang was about to approach Song Qian. When his hand was caught, he couldn't pinch it naturally. It's human, but Mi Fang still bumped his head against it, this resistance made Huang Zhong feel annoyed, he raised Mi Fang with both arms and threw Mi Fang out.
"Zi Fang!" The beautiful figure saw Mi Fang being thrown out by Huang Zhong and hurried forward to help Mi Fang. Although Huang Zhong threw Mi Fang out, Mi Fang's head still touched Song Qian, causing Song Qian's face to be shattered. Mi Fang's head was smashed, her nose and lips were broken.
Blood flowed down the nose, and Mi Fang ruined his otherwise good face. Let Song Qian's gang cry out, it's so miserable.
"Scare (Your Highness), let (this) attention (mistress) matter (is) seat (left)" Song Qian hasn't said it yet, and Mi Fang over there is threatening again "Song Qian, a thief, speak out, Be careful with your head, I will definitely let your family die without a place to bury you!"
This threat made Song Qian shiver. Although Mi Fang was captured, Song Qian was still afraid that after all there was a big boss standing behind Mi Fang.
"Moran!" Liu Reck knew there must be something wrong with it, so he stepped forward and patted Song Qian on the shoulder.
It is disrespectful and outrageous for the inferior person to pat the superior person on the shoulder. It is a kind of friendship between friends to pat each other on the shoulder, and it is a hobby for the superior person to pat the inferior person. Liu Mang’s technique of patting the shoulder gradually They are all practiced, and the slap on the shoulder calmed Song Qian's heart a little bit, and Liu Mang didn't call Song Qian's name directly, but called him by word, which shows a kind of closeness, and Song Qian's heart is at ease again. A little bit, and Liu Mang's next words completely reassured Song Qian.
"Moran, look at Mi Fang. Although I untied him, he was only a prisoner, but now you have turned your back on the dark. It can be said that you are under Liu Mang's command. Do you need to be afraid of him? And even if This Mi Fang has really surrendered to me, so it’s just a garrison general, five hundred stones, and you, um, I’m going to let you exercise more when you join our army. Now it seems that what you sent These warehouses, as well as the grain and grass in the dark warehouse, and the jewelry are all great contributions, and they should be rewarded heavily. The king has decided that you will be a quartermaster in our city management army first, and will be in charge of the transfer of military salaries for our city management black and chess armies. , the rank is more than six hundred stones, how about it!" To be honest, Song Qian's quick betrayal of Liu Bei made Liu Mang very unhappy, after all, no one would like a rebellious boy, even if he joined Liu Mang's army. Liu Wei would also plan to let him be a small county magistrate at most. Basically, it is equivalent to snow storage. But I didn't expect this Song Qian to send Liu Mang thousands of stones of grain and so much gold, silver and jewelry.
Let Liu Mang think about it for a while, and now he intuitively tells Liu Mang that Song Qian's words reveal a big secret, so Liu Mang simply gave Song Qian a good official position. The loyalty of the elite under Liu Mang's command is very high, and he is not afraid that Song Qian will make any trouble in it.
"Yes, yes, my subordinate Song Qian. Greetings, my lord!" Song Qian was really excited. It is not uncommon for Song Qian to have heard of the reputation of the black chess army, the urban management army, and the two armies, just like Liu Bei's white-eared heavy armor. , as long as he joins the white-eared heavy armor, he is really Liu Bei's confidant. Liu Wei gave Song Qian such a big opportunity. Can Song Qian not be excited? The sheriff of Yingshang was only six hundred shi. Song Qian suddenly changed from an ordinary grain officer to a six hundred shi. Song Qian was really overjoyed, he was right.
"My lord. My lord, this mistress. No, bah bah." If Song Qian became Liu Mang's subordinate and recognized Liu Mang as his lord, he couldn't be called the mistress. "This person is Mi Fang's younger sister, Liu Bei Liu. Lady with Big Ears"
"What!" Liu Mang was really stunned, the first sentence didn't matter, but the latter sentence, this woman is Liu Bei's wife
"Song Qian, you're going to die!" Mi Fang beside him growled at Song Qian, who had been controlled by Huang Zhong and couldn't move at all.
Mi Fang's younger sister! Liu Bei's wife, isn't that the same Mrs. Mi in history? There are reasons why Mrs. Mi is so famous. One of the reasons is that when this woman married Liu Bei, she had the second heaviest dowry after Sun Shangxiang. Hongda, but it was Zhou Yu's trick, wanting to exchange a woman for Liu Bei's army, but Zhuge Liang made a counter-calculation, and finally lost his wife and broke the army. It can be said that it was not a dowry, but a plunder. , but Mrs. Mi is different. His brothers and her dowry are prepared very grandly. There are thousands of servants, and countless carts of gold and silver. It is precisely because of these dowries that Liu Bei can repeat After repeated defeats, after the disaster, he once again made a comeback like an immortal Xiaoqiang. It can be said that the Mi family has helped him a lot.
The second reason is that this woman Ming Dayi, in the original trajectory, Liu Bei was defeated in Changbanpo and fled in all directions. Mrs. Mi took Liu Bei's youngest son Liu Chan with her, and Zhao Yun went seven in and seven out of Changbanpo They rescued the two, but there was only one horse. Zhao Yun asked Mrs. Mi to go out with Zhao Yun on the horse, but this woman went to declare righteousness, knowing that if she got on the horse, she would not be able to get out at all. The general was about to die in a fierce battle on the spot, so Liu Bei's youngest son, Liu Chan, was killed by Mrs. Mi, but she was willing to commit suicide. She entrusted Liu Chan to Zhao Yun by herself and threw herself into the dry well. Nu deliberately covered it with boulders. Such a loving and righteous woman is really rare in the world, even Liu Wei has to admire three points.
This caught a big fish. Although Liu Bei, like his ancestor Liu Bang, regards his wife as worthless and throws it away when he wants to, and doesn't pay much attention to it, Mrs. Mi is less important to Liu Bei, but to this Mi If Liu Mang took down Mi Fang before, he was only less than 30% sure of persuading his brother Mi Zhu to surrender, then now that Mrs. Mi is in hand, Liu Mang has it. 80% sure.
"Good strategy, good strategy!" Liu Mang really underestimated this Mi Fang, thinking that such a small character who is not as good as a second-rate character in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms can only rely on his sister and brother to take care of him in Sichuan. With a foothold in the middle school, after Liu Bei won Shuchuan and Jingzhou became the emperor, he was only a mere prefect of a county.
If it wasn't for this Song Qian who came in to expose Mi Fang, maybe Liu Mang would miss out on Madam Mi, and even Mi Fang's previous statement that he would surrender to himself was a lie, and he would definitely abscond if he had a chance, thinking about Liu Mang like this No shaking his head, it's also Liu Mang's fault, he was the one who took the lead first, so this is Mi Fang's wife, who knew it was Mi Fang's younger sister.
"My concubine, Mrs. Liu Mi, I have met His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" This Madam Mi was straightforward, knowing that she could not hide anymore, she directly saluted Liu Mang.
"Madam, please get up. Please get up quickly!" Liu Mang looked at Mrs. Mi and bowed to him. Ask Mrs. Mi to stand up first, and Liu Mang stepped forward to help Mrs. Mi while talking. During this period, the skin-to-arm contact is difficult to speak.
"General Mi Fang, this is your fault. Mrs. Mi is here, why didn't you say it earlier? With the relationship between me and Mr. Xuande, I will definitely take good care of Mrs. Mi." But Ling Ran was smiling. Liu Mang and Liu Bei have feelings? Hehe, there really are! That is the feeling that if you don't kill me, I will kill you.
"Hmph, don't be so hypocritical! If you want to kill, you have to do what you want!" Mi Fang snorted coldly. He also knew that his sister's identity could not be concealed, and his face turned ugly for a while. Her status, which has always been ridiculed by low-ranking people, is because of her younger sister's status as the mistress, which makes Liu Bei look high. If Mrs. Mi falls into Liu Mang's hands. That would be really troublesome, now Liu Mang is at war with Liu Bei. How could it be possible to send it back, and what Liu Mang did to Mrs. Mi just now made Mi Fang's heart sink again. Don't be a womanizer like Cao Cao. In the official history, Liu Bei's wife was left behind by Cao Jun, but At that time, there was Guan Yu's protection. After Cao Cao subdued Guan Yu, he respected Liu Bei's two beautiful wives as guests. If it weren't for Guan Yu, Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan would have become Cao Cao's two wonders in the Tongque Tower. Oh, you have to know, the two wives, Mrs. Mi, have introduced them before, and this Mrs. Gan is even known as a jade beauty. What is a jade beauty is that her skin can emit bursts of jade beauty after the lights blow down at night. Light, of course this is an exaggerated description, if people can shine, then they are not bugs! But Mrs. Gan's skin is indeed as smooth as jade.
"Hehe, General Mi Fang, don't worry, Madam Mi, I won't touch her with a single finger!" Liu Mang looked at Mi Fang's anger because he was afraid that he would take Liu Bei's wife to warm the bed at night, come on. exactly! Liu Bei and Sun Ce played such insidious moves, if one failed, all of Yangzhou would be lost, Lu Bujun might even disappear on the stage of history, and now Liu Bei's wife has fallen into Liu Wei's hands, Liu Wei is a little bit tolerant If I can't stop, I will take revenge on Liu Bei and start with Liu Bei's wife first, not to mention that Liu Bei's wife is not a yellow-faced woman, but a beautiful young woman!
"True words!" Mi Fang nervously looked at Liu Mang like a drowning man touching a life-saving straw, for fear that Liu Mang's next sentence would be just me teasing you.
"Of course it is true! Although the king is not the son of heaven and you have no jokes, he can be regarded as a promise. Madam Mi, I will definitely treat him as my sister-in-law, and I will respect each other! If General Zuo and our army cease fighting, Wang can even Send Madam Mi back," Liu Mang said to Mi Fang very righteously.
"Sister-in-law!" Mi Fang seemed to have taken a reassurance. In the eyes of the ancients, sister-in-law was a term for elders. Uncles and sister-in-laws naturally had to treat each other with courtesy, but Mi Fang didn't know that Liu Mang was not an ancient person. There is also a saying there is that dumplings are delicious but fun (not to mention, for fear of being harmonious).
"Then what do you want!" If Liu Mang would send Madam Mi back, wouldn't Liu Mang get nothing? It is impossible for a person to help a person for no reason, nor to hurt a person for no reason.
"Ransom! General Mi Fang, your lord Liu Bei and the king are now in a state of war, and you are the king's captives. If General Zuo wants to let you go back, naturally you should exchange the ransom for the price of the captives!" Liu Mang Take it for granted.
"Ransom? Do you want to raise the price on the ground and ask for it? If so, I advise you to give up your mind! Even if our brothers and sisters commit suicide here, we will not let you blackmail the lord!" If Liu Mang spoke If it's hundreds of thousands of shi grains, or hundreds of thousands of gold, then really don't talk about it, let alone whether Liu Bei can come up with so much, even if he can, it won't be a woman who contributed so much.
"Do you think the king is that kind of person!" Liu Mang smiled disdainfully. "Madam Mi, General Zuo's wife, 30,000 shi, no, no, 50,000 shi, grain and grass, General Zuo should be able to afford it!" Fifty thousand shi, grain and grass may seem like a lot, but it's really not much for Liu Bei's wealth. That is Liu Bei's military expenditure for one year.
"It's a good deal!" Mi Fang felt at ease, because if it's just the ransom, as long as it's not too much, it can still be paid, just like after Lu Su was captured by Liu Mang, the Lu family was willing to spend all their wealth and wanted to redeem it Lu Su is average.
"Okay, let's take General Mi Fang and Madam down!" Liu Mang waved his hand and said to his subordinates, the four guards sent Mi Fang and Madam Mi down in groups of two.
Seeing the disappearing figures of Mi Fang and Mrs. Mi, Huang Zhong asked, "My lord, do you really just want grain and grass worth tens of thousands of stones?!" You can take her to Yangzhou to threaten Liu Bei and even use her to humiliate Liu Bei.
"A mere ten thousand stones?" Liu Mang shook his head, "Han Sheng, what we lack now is food and grass!" Now that Liu Mang has no response to the shortage of food and grass in Yangzhou, he may be self-defeating, and a woman can exchange for so much food. With so much food and grass, why not Liu Mang
The most important thing is, if it is because of this woman that Liu Bei cannot take Yangzhou, who do you think Liu Bei will blame? Naturally, they are the Mi brothers. Even if Liu Bei doesn't blame him, how about his generals, wouldn't they complain about the Mi brothers? In the beginning, he was looked down upon because of his status as a merchant, and when the time comes, he will be squeezed out even more. At that time, Liu Mang will naturally be able to take advantage of the situation and gain the loyalty of the Mi family brothers.
"By the way, Han Sheng, announced to the public that Mi Fang died in battle!" Liu Wei suddenly thought of something and said to Huang Zhong.
"Dead in battle?!"
"Yes, died in battle!" Liu Mang wanted to win the loyalty of the Mi family brothers, but he couldn't put all the Mi family brothers and sisters back. He had to hold one in his hand, otherwise, even if the Mi family brothers were squeezed out, they would go to seek refuge with other brothers and sisters. princes.
Just when Huang Zhong was going to carry out the order and Liu Mang was about to take a rest, suddenly a soldier rushed in, "Report to the lord, General Huang, something is wrong, a large number of enemy troops have been found outside the city!"
"Enemy army?!" Liu Mang and Huang Zhong were all stunned, this Yingshang had just been defeated, where did the enemy army come from? Could it be that Liu Bei's trilogy in Yuzhou is going to take the initiative to fight with us? Liu Mang's army took Yingshang, and the soldiers are really a little tired. They haven't been able to stand up in Yingshang. This is not bad. With the strategy of waiting for work with ease, the enemy can completely catch our army by surprise when our army is exhausted.
"If you want to die, then don't blame me!" Liu Mang's voice was very cold. If there was no ballista, Liu Mang might be really unlucky today. Just after taking Yingshang, the soldiers were exhausted. The city was also captured, and there was no danger to defend. It was the time when there was no way to catch up, but with the ballista, everything became easier. A black chess army is waiting for it.
And in Yuzhou, how many soldiers and horses can Liu Bei have? Thirty-five thousand or ten thousand? His main force is all in Yangzhou, and even the most elite white-eared heavy armor soldiers are brought there. The ones in Yuzhou are just some light infantry. (To be continued..)
