Chapter 165: Anti-customer-oriented, Liang Wang led the vote(1/2)
Yan Liangwen Chou looked at Zhang Yan as if he were a fool.
It's okay to brag, but don't brag too much. Zhang Yan looks like the kind of person who has never experienced a real battlefield. All his combat experience probably comes from the Yellow Turban Army.
But Zhang Yan was the master after all, so the two of them didn't say anything, so they could only smile awkwardly but politely.
Suddenly, the shouting outside the door interrupted the four people's laughter and conversation, and the sound became louder and louder until several people could clearly hear what was being shouted.
"It's rough! It's rough! Prince Liang has been kidnapped!"
Zhang Yan immediately stood up after hearing the sound, trotted out, and bumped into the stumbling palace guard. When the latter saw Zhang Yan, he stood as if he had hit a wall, took a sharp breath and said: "Prime Minister Zhang, the king has been kidnapped.
Let’s go out of the city!”
"Who is so bold!" Zhang Yan said anxiously.
"It's Bo Bo Bo Bo... King Bo Hai!"
King of Bohai? Hearing this name, Zhang Yan's mind buzzed, and he didn't react for a long time. It wasn't until Xu You and Yan Liangwen Chou came out of the house to inspect that Zhang Yan finally came back to his senses, picked up the guard's shirt, and confirmed: "Seriously
?”
"Really, really!" the guard replied repeatedly.
Zhang Yan turned around and looked at the three people.
Xu You quickly asked: "Xiang Zhang, what happened?"
Zhang Yan's throat was whimpering, and he couldn't speak smoothly. It was very difficult for him to open his mouth. Just when he was about to show off his old face and tell the truth, another loud shout came from outside the hall.
"Report——"
"Report to Prime Minister Zhang that the King of Bohai has stormed out of the house!"
To be honest, Zhang Yan has a headache now. The two things seem to be connected. King Bohai sneaked into the city, then kidnapped King Liang, and then broke out of the city.
So the question is, how did he get in?
Why could he enter so easily, take away King Liang without anyone noticing, and break out of the city with great force?
Just when Zhang Yan was puzzled, Xu You and the three people behind him also knew the whole story. Xu You was thoughtful, trying to figure out King Bohai's intention, and Yan Liang and Wen Chou were also secretly surprised.
The King of Bohai, who they had united to discuss, actually kidnapped the symbol of the Liang Kingdom, King Liu Mi, under their noses. Moreover, King Bohai could sneak in and out quietly, without anyone noticing, but
He refused, instead choosing to reveal his identity in the city and fight his way out of the city.
"What a shame! King Bohai is slapping you and me!" Wen Chou said angrily.
Yan Liang curled his lips and expressed his helplessness. Regarding being slapped in the face by King Bohai, Yan Liang was already numb.
At this time, Xu You said: "Prime Minister Zhang, please tell the four gates that no one without a token will be allowed to enter the city!"
"Yes! I will give the order right now!"
Zhang Yan said and walked out, leaving three people behind.
Yan Liang asked: "Military advisor, if we lose the King of Liang before we fight this time, how can we still fight this battle?"
Xu You smiled and replied: "General Yan, you are from Jizhou. Do you know that when the Yellow Turban swept across, how many counties in Jizhou lost their kings at one time?"
Yan Liang thought about the connection between the two, but did not expect: "Military advisor, what does this have to do with the robbery of King Liang?"
"The presence or absence of King Liang has no conflict with our mission. Even if King Liang is here, can he help us in any way?" Xu You asked rhetorically.
It's true that when Liang Wang was there, they were the ones doing the work, and Zhang Yan cooperated.
Wen Chou asked: "Military advisor, the King of Bohai captured the King of Liang in order to force us to use a rat weapon. Can our pincer offensive still be carried out?"
Xu You smiled and called Wen Chou innocent.
"I have just said that there is not much difference between the presence or absence of the King of Liang. What's more, if the King of Liang is gone forever, then the Liang Kingdom can be called Liang County, and the money and grain produced by the Liang Kingdom do not need to enter the country. Liu Mi's treasury is in the treasury." Xu You said.
"But it has entered Duke Yuan's treasury!" Wen Chou took over.
Xu You smiled knowingly, seeing that Yan Liang and Wen Chou were the direct descendants of the lord, why not say a few more words, maybe when they meet Mr. Yuan in the future, the two of them would speak well of him.
Xu You said again: "Our army not only refuses to throw weapons against rats, but also smashes all weapons against rats. Just think about it, two generals. If the King of Liang is kidnapped by the King of Bohai and dies in the chaos, then Bohai Bay will have to bear a murderer." Killing clan members is a crime of fratricide!"
"Wonderful!" Wen Chou praised repeatedly, "You are truly worthy of being a military advisor!"
Yan Liang also nodded and said: "The strategy of the military advisor is the icing on the cake for this battle. The King of Bohai kidnapped King Liang, which is helping us. In this case, we will send troops tomorrow to attack the King of Bohai!"
All three passed unanimously.
At this time, Zhang Yan came back and said: "Commander, two generals, I have given an order. No one can enter the city again without a token or my order!"
Xu You replied: "Okay! The two generals and I have also agreed to send troops tomorrow to rescue King Liang!"
When Zhang Yan heard this, he frowned.
He said "Okay" on his lips, but he didn't feel it in his heart. When he went out to deliver the order, he thought clearly that if something unexpected happened to the King of Liang, he, the Prime Minister, would become a prefect.
Isn’t it beautiful?!
…
Liu Qing fought his way out of the west gate and traveled for a while. When he returned to the north, it was close to Yin Shi. However, the soldiers were all in high spirits and did not feel sleepy at all. It was okay to stay up once in a while.
Liu Mi was so distraught that when he was brought back by the imperial guards on horseback, the final official road was smooth and bumpy, and Liu Mi fell asleep on the horseback.
Liu Qing sighed: "It's great to have a big heart!"
Dian Wei arranged a sentry post and came to look for Liu Qing.
"My lord, the sentries have been arranged, but we have captured Prince Liang. Have we achieved our goal?"
Liu Qing replied: "If we talk about humiliating the Liang Kingdom, this has gone to the extreme! For a country, what could be more humiliating than the king being kidnapped! But..."
"But what?" Dian Wei stared with a pair of dark eyes, which reflected firelight, symbolizing his strong thirst for knowledge.
"But go to bed first! Get some rest before you can fight tomorrow!"
Dian Wei had no choice but to reply gloomily. Liu Qing deliberately didn't tell him. If he told him the truth, he would be so excited that he wouldn't sleep all night!
In fact, what Liu Qing really wants to say is: Yuan Shao's people probably don't have much favorable impressions of the Liu family. Although they still want to use the Liu family's flag, enfeoffing the country everywhere is actually a hindrance to Yuan Shao's governance. Although the country The prime minister has a lot of administrative power, but there is still a gap compared with the prefect's power. Therefore, will the smart people under Yuan Shao be timid because Liu Mi was captured?
Obviously not, they will attack even more crazily, and even want to get rid of him quickly, and then put the blame on themselves. Such a good strategy, as long as the intelligence is higher than 60, I am afraid they can think of it.
That's why Liu Qing didn't tell Dian Wei, lest he be too excited to sleep.
After Dian Wei left, the small tent suddenly became quiet, except for the occasional slight noise outside. After calming down, Liu Qing closed his eyes and rested his mind. Soon he felt sleepy and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Liu Qing was woken up by Dian Wei. Mao Shi was about to pass, and because it was winter, the sky was still very dark.
"My lord, the following sentry reports that there is movement in Suiyang City!" Dian Wei said, bringing over a bowl of hot minced meat.
"Oh? What's the noise?"
"Two troops and horses came out from the east gate and the west gate respectively, each with five or six thousand people, carrying the 'Yan' flag and the 'Wen' flag respectively. They seemed to be coming towards us, but they didn't seem to be."
After listening to this, Liu Qing finally understood and said: "This should be dispatched in advance, planning to outflank my retreat on the east and west sides. At about the same time, soldiers and horses will come from the north gate to confront me."
"Lord, do we want to get out of their trap?"
"There is no point in retreating unless I quit the Liang Kingdom in one breath and go to see if the King of Liang is awake." Then he pointed to the minced meat in Dian Wei's hand and said: "Send this to him, and give the others to him."
I'll serve a bowl."
Dian Wei stood there and muttered: "My lord, this is just a bowl, specially prepared for you. Yesterday I heard you complain that the dried meat was too hard to swallow, so I had no time this morning, so I boiled the dried meat."
"
Liu Qing hesitated to speak, but he didn't expect that the rough Dian Wei could have such a delicate side, so he said instead: "Take another bowl, divide it in half each, and come with me!"
With that said, Liu Qing came to Liu Mi's small tent. At this time, Liu Mi was sitting on the floor, confronting the guard. He looked at the dry biscuits in the basin on the floor and said, "Even if I die, I won't eat it!"
The arrival of Liu Qing immediately brought him back to his senses, and he said with a sad face: "King Bohai, please be magnanimous. Xiao Wang knows that attacking Shanyang is wrong, but this is not something Xiao Wang can decide! Please let King Bohai go back!"
Liu Qing took the two bowls of minced meat, sat down on the floor, and handed one bowl to Liu Mi.
"Eat first, then talk!" Liu Qing said.
Liu Mi looked at the steaming minced meat. Although it was mushy and didn't look very good, the smell of meat hit his nostrils and made his stomach growl. He wondered what kind of meat this was and why it was so fragrant!
What a joke, this is not ordinary dried meat. It is marinated and then smoked. It is cut into small pieces for easy eating. The disadvantage is that it is too stiff if not boiled. But when it is cooked into minced meat, the aroma is completely released.
Liu Mi didn't say anything about the result, and drank it. He was frightened last night, hungry and cold this morning, and his intestines were rumbling. At this time, after eating a bowl of minced meat, he felt that it was the most fragrant and warmest delicacy in the world.
Liu Mi's appetite was whetted, so he picked up another piece of cake and ate it. It was chewy and fragrant.
“It smells so good!”
Liu Qing smiled and drank the minced meat in one gulp. It was half a bowl, but it was really not much.
After eating, Liu Mi became more emotionally stable and began to plead for mercy again, but Liu Qing interrupted him directly.
"Stop it! Prince Liang, you may have misunderstood me! You and I are from the same clan of the Liu family. I know that attacking Shanyang was not your idea. Why did I take risks and take you out of Suiyang? Do you know that there were so many things last night?
Danger!"
Liu Mi thought for a while, last night was probably very dangerous.
He was too busy worrying that he didn't know exactly what was going on.
"Yes, if that's the case, why does the king want to arrest the little king?"
