As Dongfang Chunsheng's anger surged, Shi Chen drew his sword and faced each other, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Seeing this, Su Ran was a little unhappy. He picked up the old wine that was served and started drinking by himself. While drinking, he said, "Look, old gentleman, where do you start with this? You might as well I went to ten miles and eight villages to inquire. Although my county governor has not had any outstanding achievements since he took charge of Liaoxi, he has never committed any corruption or collusion. The elders in Liaoxi have been charged for grain. My county governor has always been One point makes up for another point, go and see what my county governor's office is doing from top to bottom right now! They are weaving clothes and shoes for the people who are plowing in the spring!"
"If virtue is not established, the people will be helpless, the status quo of the Qiling Gang will not be changed, and the greedy nature of Le Er will not be eradicated. No matter how much supplements are made, what is the use? Doesn't this mean forgetting the roots and forgetting the roots?" After hearing what Su Ran said, Dongfang Dongfang Chun Sheng calmed down a little. Since the Liaoxi County Sheriff was not complicit, he could not be regarded as a bad person, but at most a mediocre person.
"A pen cannot compete with a gun. Do you understand this truth? I am just a weak scholar with mediocre cultivation, and I have not become a scholar. With the thousand county soldiers under my command, how can I fight with them?" Su Ran His eyes were always wandering, he paused, then suddenly changed the topic, he smiled and said, "Besides, Jin Zhao and Le Er didn't do anything extraordinary. Isn't Liaoxi County still the territory of the Han Dynasty?"
"Don't say that one official is useless, the whole place depends on one official. How can you benefit anyone if you belittle yourself like this?" Death Shichen, a man of the world, finally couldn't control his temper and said stubbornly, "I, Death Shichen, kill If you get a Jin Zhao, you can kill Le Er. If you can't do anything, I will do it! Humph!"
After saying that, Shi Shichen picked up Liu Yi and walked out the door. Dongfang Chunsheng stood up, fluttered his sleeves, snorted coldly, threw aside all etiquette, and followed closely behind Shi Shichen.
Watching everyone leave, Su Ran had a sharp look in his eyes. After a few hesitations, he seemed to have made a great determination. He picked up the wine bottle and drank it all in one gulp. He stood at the door and shouted to everyone who had not gone far, " Heaven and earth are the reverse journey of all things; time is the passer-by of hundreds of generations. Life is like a dream, how much joy do you have? If you are willing to plan for the overall situation and the generations, how about holding off Le Er for thirty days for the sake of this county? "
Everyone stopped, and Shi Chen turned around and asked in surprise, "What did you say?"
Su Ran smiled softly, somewhat like a madman, "It's not difficult, just let Le Er stay in the handsome tent."
...
On the new territory of the Han Dynasty, the two counties of Liaoxi and Liaodong were arranged one above the other and horizontally in the eastern part of the Han Dynasty. In 325 AD, that is, sixteen years ago, Liu Yan, the emperor who first ascended the throne, reorganized the nine states and reset the place names. For some reason, the names of these two Liao lands were not changed to Liaonan and Liaobei. The old names were still used. From the geographical point of view, Judging from the location, it's a bit undeserved.
Let’s talk about Liaoxi County first. This county is the eastern border county of the empire. It has six counties under its jurisdiction. They are arranged in twos and threes in the eastern frontier of the Han Dynasty. Wuning and Wuci counties are the rightmost ends of the two horizontal lines. The two counties are connected to the east. It directly borders Goguryeo, with Wu Ci at the bottom and Wuning at the top. There is only one Yangle ferry in Yangle County that borders Goguryeo. As the two counties directly bordering Goguryeo, each of the two counties stationed a frontier army, each with 20,000 troops and 50 troops.
Le Er, on the other hand, commanded one of the frontier troops, which was the basis for his daring to act recklessly in Liaoxi County.
"Han Code: Military Preparation Chapter" says: The frontier army is equipped with twenty or thirty thousand armor, and may be stationed in border towns or at key points. A general's mansion must be set up in each department, with eight soldiers, five chief guards, one Sima of the central army, a junior Sima, a military doctor, a military craftsman, a supervisor of the central army, a supervisor of the army, and several grain craftsmen. Five thousand of the central army will guard the general; one There are two or three Zhonglang generals under his subordinates, commanding six or seven thousand troops. They open the Zhonglang general's palace, which is the same as the general's palace. They have a thousand guards directly under them to guard the Lang generals. One Zhonglang general has two or three school lieutenants, each commanding two soldiers. Three thousand, there are several thousand captains under the captain, one each for the school captain to join the army, one for the school captain Sima, and five each for the military craftsman, military supervisor, grain craftsman, and military doctor. The captain of a thousand is composed of centurions, captains, corps commanders, three military craftsmen, military supervisors, grain craftsmen, and military doctors. The system cannot be changed according to people and places.
In addition to the military routines set in the "Han Code", there will naturally be some exceptions in the small Han army. Some teams with outstanding merits, unique functions or extraordinary combat power will be summoned by the general to the emperor, given a designation, and customized military flags. , while enjoying the supreme glory, the salary also increased accordingly.
For example, the Luo Yue camp under the command of General Mou Yu of Wuning in Liaoxi County was given the title "Luo Yue" by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty because it was very good at night raids, which means "a net can catch the moon, and a thousand riders will not scare the cicadas."
Those who understand the military should know that each troop is not gathered together, but dispersed to the key defense positions where their respective responsibilities are located, forming a horn-like pattern. General Le Er of Wuci divided his troops into four. He led the Chinese army and stationed himself at the main road seven miles southeast of Wuci County. This was the only way out for Goguryeo from Wuci County to Liaoxi County. Le Er's three lieutenant generals each led 6,000 cavalry and infantry, and were stationed at three strategic locations near Le Er's army: Mount Wuci, Ji'en River, and Zhiniu Bridge. If Goguryeo wanted to conquer these three points and one line in one fell swoop, , it requires three times the force to be deployed, and it may not be possible to defeat it in one fell swoop.
It can be seen that Le Er still has some skills in leading troops and garrisoning.
On the morning of April 16th, the sky just became clear.
On the outskirts of the large tent of the Wuci Central Army, which was dotted with scattered but slightly disorganized structures in the Sanli Company Camp, a sleepy soldier who had been awakened by morning urine was sleeping. He was awakened by a soak of urine, put on a coat hastily, and walked Walking out of the military tent, the soldier unbuttoned his pants as he walked and muttered, "What the hell! Liu San'er is such a good person. He went to the city with the centurion last night to find happiness. He promised to return at the right time, but the result was unexpected. He's so crazy that he hasn't come back yet, and he's not afraid of dying on a woman's belly button! Hey, who calls him the nephew of a lieutenant general? He was given the right birth in his last life."
After passing the camp fence on a familiar road, the soldier noticed something strange. He only smelled a hint of bloody smell in the air. Several crows were flying around the pasture in front. He slowly approached and took a closer look. Seven people, no, seven Headless corpses were lined up across the grassland, all with their backs to the sky and their bodies to the ground. Hungry crows and vultures were frantically gnawing at their flesh, and the white bones of the corpses were gradually exposed.
The pawn who bullied the villagers all day long had never seen such a frightening scene. He was so frightened that he screamed and crawled back to the camp, peeing with yellow liquid.
In less than three moments, General Wu Ci Le Er led a group of personal guards to stand on the playground, unmoving.
As a general, although Le Er had not experienced that fierce battle more than forty years ago, he had suppressed bandits, quelled chaos, and killed people when he was young. Regarding the tragic death of these seven people, he was cruel by nature. Le Er did not gag like the guards around him, but instead became angry, his hands trembled, and he gritted his teeth.
He was angry because there was someone in Liaoxi County who dared to challenge his authority. He was trembling because the murderer used a knife as a pen and wrote in blood "Thirty Days, Enjoy Two Dog Heads" in front of the seven corpses. Big bloody characters.
A knife that cannot be seen or touched is even more frightening.
Le Er was wearing fish-scale iron armor, with a sword around his waist. He had no eyebrows on the left side and two scars on the right face. He had a square face, thick lips, and a slightly chubby body. He asked the trembling pawn kneeling on the ground in a low voice, "These seven people, can you know?"
The soldier had never seen a general show off his power before, and said in a trembling voice, "Hui... Hui General, although he has lost his head, I know him... one of them is a centurion, Xiao... Xiao, ah!"
Before the soldier could finish speaking, Le Er took out his long sword from its sheath, raised the knife and slashed towards the soldier's neck.
Perhaps because he has not been in battle for a long time, the knife has become a bit dull and his hand has lost its accuracy. The pawn's neck was only cut in half, and he fell to the ground and rolled and struggled. Because his throat was cut off, he couldn't speak. He had to gesture with his hands back and forth, as if begging for mercy. Le Er stepped forward, brandished the knife with both arms, and struck three times. Under the circumstances, the pawn ended up with his body and head in a different place.
Le Er stood with his sword leaning on him, looking north to Wu Ci. A fierce light suddenly appeared, "My general ordered that Sima Lequan of the Chinese Army will lead a thousand Chinese troops and advance into Wu Ci County. If the county soldiers dare to stop them, they will be killed. The instigator must be found." Hundreds of miles west of Liaoning, iron cavalry gallops, hum, I want to see how capable I am, how dare you take my life."
"No!" Lequan took the order and left, causing dust to fly for a while.
Qianqi Juanwuci returned empty-handed, and the matter was settled.
