After hearing that Juancheng's powerful Li family sent people, Yuan Fu felt he had hope again, cheered up and hurried to the front yard. 6 eight 6 eight 6 read 6 books, □≠o
When they came to the main hall, they found that no one from the Juancheng Li family was in the hall. Instead, almost all the generals from the Yanzhou Army were standing in the hall.
Everyone's faces were full of worry and indifference. When these despicable "general soldiers slaves" met the governor Yuan Fu before, every one of them was flattering and flattering. They had never been like this before.
Facing the cold eyes of so many generals, Yuan Fu, the governor of Yanzhou, faintly noticed that something was extremely unusual. He couldn't help but gain courage and said sternly.
"Where are Li's people?!"
"If you don't all perform your duties, what are you doing here!?"
However, Yuan Fu's stern scolding did not scare these Yanzhou generals.
The first person stood up and spoke to Yuan Fu in a somewhat stiff tone.
"Mr. Yuan, now Juancheng is in danger. The city wall can no longer be relied on. We heard that the Qingzhou Army outside has spread the news and plans to massacre and plunder Juancheng after breaking the city."
The general said this, hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and continued.
"Please also ask Mr. Yuan, for the sake of the people in the city, surrender Kaicheng!"
The man who spoke was Yao Hui, the fake Sima of the Yanzhou Army. He was a soldier from Juancheng who had served in the army for several generations.
When he heard what Yao Hui said about "Kaicheng surrender", Yuan Fu suddenly became furious.
"Shu Zi, shut up! The Qingzhou bandits are all bewitched by Liu Yu. They are all greedy and murderous people. Once they surrender, wouldn't they be destroying themselves!"
Yuan Fu said, waved his hand and gave instructions to the guards who followed him.
"Come here, take down Yao Hui, who has deceived the army, and wait until tomorrow to punish him. The rest of you must retreat quickly!"
After hearing this, several of Yuan Fu's guards immediately rushed forward to capture Yao Hui.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise.
The sound of swords being unsheathed echoed all around, and all the Yanzhou generals present held swords in their hands.
Several guards were too frightened by the sight before them to move. Yuan Fu, the governor of Yanzhou, was also frightened and overwhelmed by the fierce-looking Yanzhou generals in front of him.
"You, you, what are you going to do!" Yuan Fu stammered in shock and fear.
"Come here, capture all these people!" Fake Sima Yao Hui did not answer Yuan Fu's words, but ordered people to control all the guards of Yuan Fu's Yamen Army.
Yuan Fu's governor's Yamen Army guards all surrendered obediently to these large numbers of Yanzhou generals.
After taking care of these Yamen Army guards, the fake Sima Yao Hui turned to Yuan Fu and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fu, we are just doing this to keep the whole family alive."
"Yao Hui, I know you have seen the ferocious stone cannons of the Qingzhou Army today and are afraid that the Qingzhou Army will massacre and plunder the city after the city is broken. But you must rest assured that I have already agreed on a response method with the big families in the city, and the reinforcements from Gaoping County will be used We will arrive in a short time, and Juancheng will be able to be defended by then, and your family members, young and old, will all be unscathed!"
As Yuan Fu spoke, he paid attention to the expressions of the Yanzhou generals present. He saw hesitation on the faces of several people, and was secretly happy, so he hurriedly continued to speak in a kind tone.
"Yao Hui, as long as you all disperse, I, Yuan Fu, will pretend that what happened tonight never happened and let bygones be bygones!"
However, as soon as Yuan Fugu finished saying this, he was immediately exposed by Yao Hui before he saw any reaction. ¥♀eight¥♀eight¥♀Read ¥♀book, 2≠3o◆
"Humph, Mr. Fu, don't treat me like a three-year-old child. With the Qingzhou Army's posture today, I'm afraid Juancheng won't even be able to survive tomorrow. When the Qingzhou Army enters the city, the unlucky ones will not be us small soldiers and civilians."
It turns out that Yao Hui and other Yanzhou soldiers were local military households for several generations. After Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty established a household system and reorganized the system, most of these people who had been serving in the army for generations continued to work as soldiers.
These people live concentratedly in the lane areas of Juancheng. If the Qingzhou Army breaks the city, the first to be unlucky will be the lanes where these defenders and soldiers live.
So tonight when the local Yanzhou army generals gathered together, they all scolded the Yanzhou governor Yuan Fu for being stupid and arrogant. He didn't want to offend anyone. He actually offended the Qingzhou army. Now it's better. I heard that the Qingzhou army planned to break the After the city was massacred and plundered, the families of these Yanzhou generals were all in Juancheng. Wouldn't their whole families be killed by then?
After two selections by Gou Xi and Sima Yue, these Yanzhou army generals were no longer as effective as before, and everyone lost confidence in resisting the Qingzhou army.
Finally, I don't know who it was who suggested that if Yuan Fu, the governor of Yanzhou, could open the city and surrender, he might be able to avoid the massacre after the city was broken.
Someone familiar with the Qingzhou Army also pointed out that these Qingzhou Army have strict military discipline and do not seem to be the kind of army that combines soldiers and bandits. If the governor of Yanzhou can open the city and surrender, as long as the enemy's general Liu Yu calms down his anger, it will definitely be possible. Asking for a comprehensive city.
However, even if they take the initiative to surrender, the Yanzhou governor, who is the instigator, will probably be in a very dangerous situation, and with these low-status Yanzhou generals, there is basically no hope that they can persuade the Yanzhou governor to surrender.
Moreover, even if these Yanzhou generals want to surrender on their own, it will be difficult, because the control of each city gate in Juancheng is in the hands of Yanzhou Governor Yamen Army. These Yamen Army are the governor's confidants, and they have It's hard to compromise.
As for the use of force, although these Yamen troops are small in number, their combat power is far superior to that of the state army.
Finally, under the leadership of the most prestigious fake Sima Yao Hui, these Yanzhou military generals decided to use force to control Yanzhou Governor Yuan Fu and then force him to surrender.
Yuan Fu was well-informed and understood this immediately. He knew that these Yanzhou generals were afraid of being rebelled after the city was broken.
"Yao Hui, if you coerce the governor and surrender to the rebels, aren't you afraid that the court will raise troops to hold you accountable in the future? You must know that these Qingzhou soldiers cannot stay in Juancheng forever." Yuan Fu said immediately.
"Hahaha, it's not a waste of time. We heard that the Qingzhou sergeant is living a good life. Yanzhou is surrounded by thieves and bandits. We have already planned to move to Qingzhou afterwards."
Yao Hui continued with a hint of pride.
"At that time, the court will not even be able to find us. Moreover, the court will only know that the person who surrendered in Kaicheng is not an unknown like us, but the governor of Yanzhou."
After finishing speaking, Yao Hui did not give Yuan Fu a chance to continue talking nonsense. While arranging people to control the governor's mansion, he personally escorted Yuan Fu to several city gates and took over the defense.
Yao Hui and others originally thought that they would encounter resistance from the Yamen Army soldiers. However, when the Yamen Army soldiers saw Yuan Fu being surrounded by the Yanzhou Army and knew that they would give up the resistance and surrender, they all cooperated and handed over the city. Door control.
At this point, within an hour, all the guards in Juancheng were replaced by Yanzhou Army soldiers. Yao Hui quickly ordered people to take care of Yuan Fu, and went to the Qingzhou Military Camp outside the city in person overnight.
. . . . .
When Yanzhou Army's fake Sima Yao Hui entered the Qingzhou Army camp and saw Liu Yu, he was carried into the camp by two Qingzhou soldiers who were like bulls.
Liu Yu heard that the Qingzhou Army scouts met people coming out of Juancheng and said they wanted to surrender the city, so he immediately ordered them to be brought over.
Yao Hui's body was tied tightly with ropes, his hands were tied behind his back, and he knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Untie him."
Liu foresees that this person is just an ordinary person, and he is definitely not the kind of assassin who can kill one person in ten steps.
"Young man, thank you general." Yao Hui said immediately.
After untying the rope, Liu Yu asked slowly and calmly.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Yao Hui quickly answered with a smile on his face.
"The villain's name is Yao Hui, and he is a fake army commander in the Yanzhou Army. The villain came to ask the general to surrender in order to protect the people of Juan City."
When Liu Yu heard that Yao Hui's official position was just that of a fake military commander, and was already the lowest military attache with good rank, he began to doubt the authenticity of what he said about surrender.
"How dare you, a little fake military commander, say such big words about offering a city." Liu Yu looked unbelieving.
At this time, his nephew Liu Xun saw this and immediately cooperated.
"Sir, I think he is probably here to spy on the military situation under the pretense of dedicating the city. It's better to kill him."
When Yao Hui heard this, he was panicked and quickly spoke.
"General, I can't tell a lie. Now the four gates of Juancheng are in our hands. Even Yuan Fu, the governor of Yanzhou, has been taken into custody by us. Oh, no, we have also persuaded him to agree to dedicate the city. Surrender."
"Yuan Fu?" After hearing this, Liu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Seeing this, Yao Hui knew that Liu Yu had believed him, so he quickly continued.
"Yes, Mr. Yuan Fu has agreed. And the mastermind of the sneak attack and assassination of the general is actually not Mr. Yuan Fu, but someone else."
"Not Yuan Fu? Who is that?"
"It's Feng Song, Zuo Sima of the King of East China Sea."
When Liu Yu heard this, he was a little surprised. He had always thought that Yuan Fu was plotting to attack him out of some unknown intention. Now when he heard that Feng Song, the Zuo Sima of King Sima Yue of the East China Sea, he immediately understood. This must be another conspiracy behind the scenes by Sima Yue, the "shit stirrer".
Sima Yue was able to clearly plot against the kings of Changsha, Chengdu, and Hejian, and he dealt with others easily.
"Zuo Sima Feng Song?" Liu Xu repeated this unfamiliar name.
"Yes, general, the mastermind is Zuo Sima Feng Song." Yao Hui agreed while thinking in his heart, Yuan Jishi, Yuan Jishi, I am trying my best to help you. I will hand you over to these Qingzhou soldiers tomorrow. In your hands, the outcome depends on your own life.
"Feng Song, where are you now!?"
"already dead."
"Dead? How did you die?"
Liu Yu's face was full of suspicion, which immediately made Yao Hui a little nervous, and he hurriedly said.
"Just this afternoon, I was hit in the chest by the general's powerful stone cannon and died immediately."
Then Liu Yu asked for details and felt that what Yao Hui said did not seem to be a lie.
"So, you have taken control of the city gate and can dedicate the city at any time?"
"Yes, General, you can enter the city at any time as long as it's dawn tomorrow."
After hearing this, Liu Yu was not happy, but felt a little embarrassed.
He had previously promised that after conquering Juancheng, the Qingzhou Army would plunder the city's treasury and property, and also planned to move a large number of people away. However, these were all based on the use of force to conquer the city. After all, during the battle, the soldiers Robbery is a normal thing.
Although plundering a city will damage military discipline and reputation, it will immediately add strength.
However, I did not expect that Yanzhou Army General Yao Hui suddenly appeared, and he had completed all preparations to surrender the city. As long as the Qingzhou Army entered Juancheng from the city early tomorrow morning, they could declare victory.
However, this kind of active surrender was of no benefit to Liu Yu at all.
If Juancheng, which surrendered voluntarily, was plundered and plundered, the reputation of Liu Yu and the Qingzhou Army would be completely ruined, and the gain would simply outweigh the loss.
But for a city like Juancheng, which is in a place of four battles, Liu Yu does not have the strength to defend it now, so if he accepts Yao Hui's offer of surrender, it will basically be a useless name.
For a moment, Liu Yu was indeed in a dilemma.
He could only think about him first.
"Yao Hui, what reward do you want after Kaicheng surrenders?"
Yao Hui quickly replied, "The villain doesn't want rewards. He just wants to follow the general to Qingzhou. Moreover, not only the villain, but also the commander of Yanzhou Army, Pao Ze, thinks so."
As soon as he heard what Yao Hui said, Liu Yu knew that these Yanzhou generals were firstly afraid that the court would pursue some unclear culpability afterwards, and secondly, they knew that Juancheng was the place of four wars in troubled times, and they might not have a stable life in the future, so they might as well hurry up. The whole family is migrating.
Thinking that these Yanzhou Army soldiers could follow them to Qingzhou and gain some population, Liu Yu felt a little comfort in his heart. It was better than not getting even a feather.
"How many state troops and family members are there in Juancheng?" Liu Yu asked.
"The state army has about 2,000 soldiers and 2,000 family members."
"Do you have so few family members?" Liu Yu was a little surprised. Is it possible that many soldiers have no family members?
Sure enough, Yao Hui's words confirmed this guess.
"Most of the soldiers in the army are single, and even if they have relatives, most of them are not in Juancheng."
Liu Yu had a headache when he heard that there were so many single soldiers. There were already a large number of male refugees and soldiers in Qingzhou, many of them were single, and the ratio of men to women was seriously unbalanced.
If there were more singles, how these people would solve women's problems in the future would be enough to give Liu Yu a headache.
In essence, life in this world is just two major things: survival and reproduction. After these people are full, if another big problem cannot be solved, there is no guarantee that these people under Liu Yu will not cause trouble.
make trouble?
Soldiers making trouble?
Suddenly, an idea flashed into Liu Yu's mind, which seemed to be able to solve the problem that had just put him in a dilemma.
Liu Yu smiled slightly and asked Yao Hui pleasantly.
"Yao Hui, let me ask you, after arriving in Qingzhou, would you rather be a rich man or a farmer?"
"Ah? General, what do you mean?" Yao Hui looked confused, not knowing what Liu Yu meant with the evil smile on his face. 11
