"Mr. Pei!"
Pei Hui chuckled and asked the person in front of him to stand up.
"No need to be polite, just sit down."
Pei Hui, the governor of Jizhou, was born in the Pei family in Hedong. He was considered a top behemoth in the wealthy family and was the father of Pei Kai, the most beautiful man today.
Pei Hui was a gentle man who never had integrity with others. He was very accomplished in the study of classics. When Fu Gu and Xun Can were arguing about the classics and refused to give in, it was Pei Hui who was among them and interpreted the meaning of the two schools. In each other's arms, they get back together.
His personal ethics are also good. Even though he is not as incorruptible as Hu Wei, he can be regarded as a virtuous gentleman. He is magnanimous, governs with gentleness, and does not prey on the people.
Cao Mao asked him to continue serving as the governor of Jizhou because Jizhou had suffered a rebellion before and could not bear the turmoil, so it was more suitable for a moderate person like Pei Hui to govern.
Of course, there is also the idea of appeasing the sentiments of the rich families. The proportion of people from poor families among the governors is too large, and a few people from rich families are still needed to balance it. Otherwise, the rich families will have to oppose the emperor's employment standards.
After hearing Pei Hui's words, the man stood up and sat next to Pei Hui respectfully. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Pei Hui in front of him.
Pei Hui took the letter and asked with a smile: "Is Mr. Sun in good health? Come to think of it, we haven't exchanged letters in nearly a year."
The envoy from Qingzhou hurriedly replied: "Pei Gong, my governor is in good health. It's just that because of the complicated government affairs, I haven't been able to write to you often."
Pei Hui nodded with a smile and then opened the letter.
After just a few glances, the smile on Pei Hui's face froze. His eyes were full of shock. He threw the paper out as if he was electrocuted. He raised his head again and looked at the messenger in front of him, but his eyes were gone. A little bit of kindness.
"Someone is coming!!"
"Take this man down!!"
Pei Hui was stunned. Immediately, a soldier broke in and directly pinned the envoy to the ground.
The envoy was shocked and hurriedly explained: "Pei Gong! Please listen to me. My governor has no ulterior motives. He is sincere for the sake of the world's justice. You have asked me to come here just to tell you about the benefits."
"Pfft~~~"
As soon as the messenger started to speak, Pei Hui's sword penetrated his body directly and stabbed him through the abdomen.
At this moment, Pei Hui's face no longer looked as gentle as before, his eyes were sharp, staring into the eyes of the messenger, "Rebellious thief?! How dare you say anything?!"
Pei Hui suddenly drew out his sword, and the envoy fell to the ground with disbelief on his face.
The envoy had sent letters to Pei Hui for Sun Yu many times. He had a good relationship with Pei Hui and was also very eloquent. Sun Yu then asked him to persuade Pei Hui to raise troops.
He really didn't expect that Pei Hui, who was always smiling and approachable, would directly attack without giving him a chance to speak.
Seeing the envoy lying in a pool of blood, Pei Hui quickly sent someone to summon the county ministers.
He himself picked up the letter dropped on the ground and read it repeatedly.
If Pei Hui had known that the envoy sent by Sun Yu was here to persuade him to rebel, he would never have read this memorial.
Sun Yu had made preparations very early. Before he took King Qi hostage, he had sent people to various places to prepare propaganda work. There was no need to wait for Cao Fang's nod.
Pei Hui made sure again and again that there was nothing in the letter that involved him, and then he felt relieved.
Pei Hui was not willing to follow Sun Yu to mess around. Several people in his clan were highly valued by the emperor. Even he had received several letters from the emperor earlier, asking him to govern Hebei well. His son Pei Kai After joining the emperor's newly established department, his son Pei Xiu became an important minister around the emperor. He heard that he was going to be promoted to minister.
With the talents of his children and His Majesty's preference, it would not be a big problem to get two San Gongs within thirty years.
Moreover, his family is all in Luoyang, and several outstanding children are also by the emperor's side.
Is he crazy enough to rebel against Sun Yu? !
Therefore, the most decisive action is to kill the messenger, inform the temple of the letter and the incident, and express his determination.
When Pei Hui summoned many officials, their faces were particularly grim.
"Pei Gong! Sun Yu of Qingzhou has rebelled!"
"Um?!"
Pei Hui was confused. How come his subordinates knew it faster than he did?
Then he saw Biejia take out a notice and said seriously: "Someone posted this in the city. Many people are talking about it. I have sent people to seal the city and no one is allowed to enter or exit."
When Pei Hui saw the message, he thought something bad in his heart.
"Send someone quickly to contact General Yang!"
"Something big happened in Qingzhou!"
Sun Yu not only sent people to contact Pei Hui, he also arranged for people to publicize the matter in various places, mainly to win over more allies and destabilize the enemy's rear.

And the same thing keeps happening everywhere.
Sun Yu sent many people to Youzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou, and even Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other areas, hoping that they could raise troops to attack the traitor emperor.
The newly appointed governor of Youzhou, He Zhen, soon met the envoy.
He Zhen was from Lujiang. His father had passed away before he was born. When he was born, his family was poor and could not support him, so he stayed with his uncle. In order to support his family, he made writing brushes and weaved fans as a profession. By the time he was more than ten years old, Later, he began to study, showed his attainments in Confucian classics, and began to enter an official career.
Later, Cao Rui heard that he was very talented in literature and asked him to write "Xu Du Fu". After he wrote it, Cao Rui valued him even more.
This man later guarded the border fortress and once planned to kill Liu Meng of the Xiongnu. This made the Xiongnu so afraid that they did not dare to cause trouble again for many years.
After learning about this incident, he almost made the same decision as Pei Hui, but he did not kill the envoy. He tied the envoy and sent him to Luoyang.
The situation is similar in Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places.
The newly appointed governor of Yangzhou, Fu Xuan, is known for his integrity. His grandfather Fu Xie served as the governor of Hanyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his father Fu Qian served as the governor of Fufeng in Cao Wei.
Although he came from a wealthy family, Fu Xuan's parents died when he was young, and he lived in poverty and poverty. This allowed him to develop an indomitable and strong character, and he also grew into a capable minister with a long-term vision and a broad mind.
When Cao Mao selected the governor this time, he chose people of this type, who were either from common people or from a wealthy family, but whose parents died young.
Fu Xuan's only flaw was his temper and lack of tolerance. He would get angry because of the smallest thing. Sun Yu's incident completely angered him. He immediately called him a traitor and rode a horse to find Wu who was about to accept the order to become a cavalry general. Qiu Jian.
Guanqiu Jian was startled by him and thought he was talking about himself.
The situation is similar in other states.
Cao Mao has a good eye for selecting people.
Although the governors did not choose the wrong team, the governor had many problems. When Sun Yu's message of attacking the noble countryman spread throughout the country, many people were still shaken.
Correspondingly, there were riots and even rebellions in various places.
And the generals, after learning the news, hurriedly began to reorganize the army and prepare to go to counter the rebellion.
Just as a rebellion against Cao Mao was unfolding, Sun Yu, who launched the rebellion, almost collapsed.
"Trash!! Idiot!!"
"Come here! Take me down here! Execute me!!"
In the palace of King Qi, Sun Yu was furious.
His lieutenant Wu Sheng hurriedly begged for mercy: "Prince Governor! For the sake of the friendship between our two families, please forgive me! Please forgive me!"
Wu Sheng was the son of Wu Dun, one of the four bandits in Taishan. Among the many thieves and bandits, his family was the worst off, not even being able to join the eunuch.
Sun Yu was almost furious.
"I asked you to hold the front line, how dare you run away?!"
Wu Sheng looked disgraced, and when he heard Sun Yu's question, he couldn't help but shed tears.
"Prince Governor, I can't hold on. Hu Laogou's army is good at fighting. His army is full of veteran generals and soldiers. Seeing his flag, my soldiers didn't dare to draw their bows and shoot arrows. I killed several of them in succession. , as a result, the captain rebelled, if I hadn’t run so fast, I would have been caught by them and given to Old Gou Hu!”
"Many of the soldiers under our command were Hu Zun's former subordinates. They didn't listen to us at all and Hu Zun came too fast. As soon as I passed by, his army was under the city and there were so many people."
Wu Sheng kept explaining the reasons for his defeat.
Sun Yu's initial idea was very wonderful. He felt that the emperor was so cold to Hu Zun, so he should be willing to defect to him.
If we can get help from Hu Zun, stick to Qingxu, and respond to the situation from all over the country, and if the state of Wu sends troops to help, we won't have to worry about big things happening.
Even if Hu Zun refuses, he can rely on Qingzhou's excellent city defense and the large amount of food reserves to hold out until the day when there is turmoil in various places.
However, things did not develop as he thought.
The main reason was that the Qingzhou army, for which he had high hopes, was vulnerable to Hu Zun.
When Shi Bao led the Qingzhou army, he didn't dare to show his teeth to Hu Zun. It can only be said that Sun Yu, who had never experienced war, thought of the war too easily. He thought that once the city gate was closed, the enemy would take a long time. It will take time to break through.
It's a pity that Hu Zun didn't think so. He directly mobilized his elite troops and sent out troops from three directions. He captured a city in a day and killed a prefect in three days. The city couldn't even stop him. It didn't look like he was going out to fight. As he kept on the road, his army was defeated wherever it went.
The gap between the two sides is really huge. These corrupt officials in Qingzhou are just like the common people. They are first-rate in giving and accepting bribes. But when it comes to managing soldiers and fighting, even simple defense cannot be done well. Defense is not as simple as they think. , it’s not just about standing on the city wall and saying a few words to defend, you have to calculate the pressure on each side of the city wall, consider the status of the soldiers, the number of rotations, the allocation of supplies, etc.
Hu Zun's momentum was overwhelming, and Sun Yu was really panicked.
According to Hu Zun's strategy, wouldn't he become a prisoner in a few days? !
"Take this man down and imprison him, and I will personally lead the troops to guard it!!"
"Reinforcements will arrive soon, don't panic!!"
