After finishing speaking, Li Zhi sighed secretly, and said indifferently: "Actually, my lord did not force you to do this. You had many choices, either leave the palace and return to Lintao's hometown to become a rich man, or go to the General's Mansion Serving the lord or the lord's wife, it's a pity that you have given up.

In fact, I don’t need to explain too much, you should also know your own situation, you should also be able to guess your mission, and know what you will do in the future.Over the years, the eunuchs, servants, maidservants and concubines in the palace have been cleaned up five times, but you have always been safe and sound.Even when General Li Jue deducted the expenses in the palace, your salary is still quite a lot, rich clothes and fine food, glory and wealth, inexhaustible.As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, now is the time for you to serve the lord.If you insist on refusing, I will spare your life since you are a member of the second lady's family, I will not make things difficult for you.It's just that from now on, you will no longer be a member of the lord, and your clansmen and relatives will no longer enjoy any care, and all real estate, fertile land and family assets under your name will be confiscated.In addition, your name will no longer be in the Dong family. From now on, you will be a lonely ghost. After a hundred years, no one in this world will know that there was such a person as you. "

"No" the white-faced unnecessary man yelled out of his wits, slumped on the ground, tears streaming down his face, as lonely and helpless as a bereaved concubine.

Seeing this, Li Zhi didn't say much anymore, he casually took out some things from his sleeve pocket and put them on the table, and then took out a tightly wrapped small black kit the size of a walnut from his bosom, and put it in the sleeve pocket things together.

After doing this, Li Zhi stood up, lifted the man from the ground with one hand and sat down. After the man sat down tremblingly, he looked up and saw a stack of things on the table.

"Ah!" While screaming, he grabbed the golden golden lock of longevity placed on the table, opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief, "Where did you get this golden lock?"

Li Zhi seemed to have known that he would ask this question a long time ago, and replied without thinking: "Where does this golden lock come from, you should know better than me. This is a royal thing. Why did it appear on your lock?" Lintao's hometown, and it is still hanging around the neck of a 13-year-old boy. Oh no, to be precise, he is already 15 years old this year. He will grow up in two years. In fact, these things were left two years ago Hangu Pass was already in my hands. At that time, I entrusted Military Advisor Jia Xu to give you a burden. I think you will not forget it?

During the more than two months you have followed Dong Cheng and others to drill the woods, you should have realized the importance of this bag; no matter it is a poisonous snake or a beast, it will not hurt you.Because the baggage on your back has been soaked in a special liquid for half a year, it has a special smell.You can't smell it yourself, but all animals can and won't come near you.It is even less likely to hurt you.So you and him were not disturbed by poisonous snakes and beasts, but other soldiers and officials were not so lucky. More than [-]% of your party were buried in the jungle. "

Listening to Li Zhi's narration, the white-faced beardless man couldn't help but think of the night before he left Hangu Pass.Jia Xu found him.Smilingly, he gave him a bundle, and said with a smile: "Recently, the weather has changed a lot, Zhongchang Shi is thin, and there are two changes of clothes in the bag, and I hope Zhongchang Shi will take it with me in case of emergencies. A little gift is not enough respect, please Zhongchang Shi Xiao accept." At that time, he didn't think much about it, so he accepted it happily.When he fled Loudiyuan the next day, he left in a hurry and left his pack in the tent.Unexpectedly, the accompanying soldiers brought it for him, and he has been carrying it on his back ever since.

It was only when he was in the jungle that he had time to open the bag and check the contents. As Jia Xu said, there were only two pieces of clothing and a piece of resinous incense the size of a thumb.There were two pieces of clothing, one was a brocade robe, the workmanship was exquisite, it looked familiar, it seemed like deja vu, but the white-faced, beardless man didn't remember who sewed this piece of clothing at that time.The other piece is not a piece of clothing, but a golden silk soft armor, which is extremely rare, and it is indeed a rare treasure that cannot be found.A small piece of incense is also extremely valuable, with a pleasant fragrance, like the rare ambergris, which can repel mosquitoes, fume clothes, or apply it directly on the body.

Of these three things, only one fell on the white-faced beardless man in the end, which he deliberately concealed, and that was the golden silk soft armor.He had been wearing it close to his body all the time, so Liu Xie hadn't noticed him, and Liu Xie had taken the brocade robe and incense for himself.

For more than two months in the jungle, everything was just as Li Zhi said. He staggered and walked in the jungle all day long with a burden on his back. Everyone else was bitten by mosquitoes and insects. Someone was killed by a wild beast in the middle of the night, but nothing happened to him.

Neither mosquito bites nor poisonous snakes were seen.There was even one time when he walked under a branch of a tree, two poisonous snakes entangled in the treetops suddenly fell from the tree and hit him, but they didn't bite him, and then ran away in a flash.In addition, wherever he rests, there is not even a single ant within five steps, let alone mosquitoes.

Therefore, he may be the most comfortable one in the group's escape. Apart from the hard work and occasional starvation, he has almost no worries, and he doesn't have to worry about being bitten by poisonous snakes or attacked by wild animals.In addition, Liu Xie who was with him was also blessed with no mosquitoes or poisons; otherwise, with Liu Xie's weak body, it would be difficult to get out of the jungle alive.

"It turns out that all of this was carefully designed by you, it's incredible, you are terrible!"

Until now, the white-faced man without a beard suddenly realized that he thought he was lucky to escape from Chang'an, but now it seems that everything is under the control of General Li Li. This,,, is unbelievable!

While sighing and marveling, the man suddenly remembered who made the extremely familiar brocade robe. It was stitched by his mother stitch by stitch. No wonder it seemed familiar and looked so familiar.Before he had time to be amazed, he then remembered another extremely important thing, incense. Liu Xie's illness this time was caused by that precious piece of ambergris.

Last winter, Liu Xie cut a small piece of the incense that he hadn't been willing to use and put it in the incense burner. As a result, that night, he was so fierce that he spent the whole night with Fu Shou and Dong Gui, and had a romantic relationship until dawn.Since then, Liu Xie has had a special liking for that piece of incense. Every time he is happy, he always cuts a small piece and puts it in the incense burner. The fragrant air fills the whole bedroom, which makes him very excited.Unexpectedly, extreme joy gave rise to sorrow, the incense was used up after only four nights, and from the fifth day onwards, Liu Xie became listless, lost his appetite, and drowsy, and then it became more and more serious, so that now he is lying on the couch all day long, drowsy After waking up, he had to force-feed ginseng soup to continue his life, just like a living dead.

"What exactly is that incense? Why can it make people unconscious and awake at times, and finally unconscious?" The white-faced, beardless man looked at Li Zhi in astonishment, and asked in a deep voice.

Li Zhi said expressionlessly: "You and he have both seen it with your own eyes, and were terrified by this kind of thing, and he was so scared that he peed his pants."

"I've seen it all, are you scared to pee?" The man murmured casually, then suddenly opened his eyes wide, and said in horror: "You mean the poisonous dragon! The cold pond dragon that the general hunted and killed when he visited Jingzhou?"

Li Zhi's expression was indifferent, and he said in a low voice: "To be precise, it should be the oil outside the poisonous sac under the belly of the poisonous dragon. The real ambergris is fragrant and fragrant, but it is also a deadly poison. This poison is unique in the world, and there is no medicine that can cure it. So far, only the genius doctors Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji can treat them, otherwise, the poisoned person will definitely die!"

There is a small piece in the black kit on the table, you take it back and put it in the incense burner, Liu Xie will wake up immediately, let him take a last look at the world of the big man, and then live out his life safely in the carnival.Even if you don't want to do it, he will die, and die in his sleep; if you light him a piece of incense, he will wake up, and die in a merry way. "

The white-faced beardless man said rather angrily: "He is already like this, why don't you let him go and insist on putting him to death?"

Li Zhi frowned, and said in a very cold tone: "Because he is the Son of Heaven, the only orthodox emperor of the Han Dynasty, he must die! Even if I don't kill him today, others will get rid of him in the future. Rather than let him die for unknown reasons Bai, it's better to let him truly be a man and die in a gentle village.

As the saying goes: To die under a peony flower is to be a ghost.He lived a worthless life, incompetent to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, enjoyed the bliss of the world before his death, and finally became a romantic emperor.How to choose, you choose yourself, everything is on the table, close the door before leaving.Remember, you only have two days, and you will bear all the consequences yourself! "

After speaking, Li Zhi grabbed the wine jar, opened the curtain, and strode into the inner room.

"How can such a poisonous dragon kill the real dragon emperor? God is not blessed, I am a big man!" The white-faced beardless man, oh no, it should be Dong Hong who picked up the things on the table and stuffed them into his arms. Walk away, sighing absent-mindedly.Desperately, he pushed open the door and walked out. After walking more than ten steps, Dong Hong stepped back, closed the door carefully, and walked away with a hunchback.

Youzhou, the right city of Beiping County.A fight has just ended, the flames have not yet been extinguished, there are mountains of corpses inside and outside the city, broken arms and remnants can be seen everywhere, and the moat is stained red with blood.

The city gate was broken, the city was in a mess, the horses neighed, the wounded soldiers moaned, the people complained endlessly, and the people were in dire straits.

At the gap in the city wall not far away, dozens of people helped the old and the young to step over the ruined wall, and fled the city in a hurry with large and small burdens on their backs.Situations like this are not uncommon. The same scene is being staged under the walls of the entire Youbeiping City, but the soldiers rushing around in the city turn a blind eye to it, and the soldiers and people go about their own business without interfering with each other.

Two hundred paces away is the city gate. At the moment there are no soldiers guarding the city gate, but the common people dare not go through the city gate. Disappearing in the setting sun, the back is getting longer and farther away.

This is a fight without a winner.The city was breached, but the army on the attacking side was crippled by the defenders, and then thousands of cavalry rushed out of the city, defeated the attacking rebels in one fell swoop, and chased them dozens of miles away.So the city was breached, but it was not lost, and was still in the hands of the defenders; although the rebels on the attacking side destroyed the Youbeiping County City, they got nothing, and finally fled in all directions, running for their lives in a hurry.However, after defeating the rebels, the defenders voluntarily abandoned the city and retreated, causing more than [-] people in the city to lose their support.I had to pack my bags in a hurry, help the old and the young, leave their hometown, and embark on the road of escape.

This is extremely puzzling.Why do you want to abandon the city and withdraw your troops when you have clearly defeated the enemy?

Such a foolish move is something that a wise man would not do.Even if the city is dilapidated and cannot be repaired in a short period of time, there is no danger to defend and it has to be abandoned; then it is necessary to arrange for the transfer of the people first, and then slowly withdraw the troops calmly.This is the best policy.This is true for all generals in command; anyone who doesn't even understand such a simple truth is in vain as a general, which makes people feel cold.

However, the facts are in front of us.It really happened.Moreover, the person who did such stupid things was not an unknown person, nor was he a newborn calf leading an army for the first time, but the world-renowned White Horse General Gongsun Zan.

This is really what Gongsun Zan did, and this is not the first time.He had done such things three times before.This chills the hearts of the soldiers under his command.For Gongsun Zan, things that are despised by the common people have long been commonplace, and they have been tried and tested repeatedly for more than a year.

From this, people can't help but wonder, the white horse general Gongsun Zan is a well-known border guard of the big man.As early as Emperor Ling was alive, Gongsun Zan was famous for his bravery and toughness in battle. He defeated the Wuhuan barbarians several times and killed many barbarians on the border of Youzhou.As a result, it became famous all over the world and became widely known.Known by the world.But is it really Gongsun Zan who has no mercy and treats the people like nothing?

People are subject to change, this simple truth is well known.But many times we will subconsciously choose not to believe it, and deliberately ignore it, because we don't like people and things that are too fickle, and we are not willing to accept the fact that the good turns from bad to bad. We would rather keep the good side in our hearts and ignore it. Its not good.Human nature is inherently good, and the way of heaven dictates it. We follow the way of heaven, advocating beautiful people and things, and hope that a beautiful moment will become eternal and never fade.

But the facts are often not shifted by people's subjective consciousness. Things that don't follow people's wishes happen from time to time, and it is not uncommon.This is exactly the case with Gongsun Zan of Youzhou.

Gongsun Zan was born in a family of Gongsun in Eastern Liaodong. Because he was a concubine, he was not liked by his elders, which made him perverse since childhood, bold and violent, brave and strong.When he was young, he used to fight injustice for his old friend, risking his own life, disregarding life and death, for which he won the respect of his neighbors.After joining the army, he fought bravely, took the lead in every battle, marched forward bravely, and was extremely sturdy. For this reason, he won the heartfelt support of the soldiers in the tent and followed him to the death.During the guarding of the Youzhou border, he led the soldiers under his tent to fight alone countless times.

But all this changed when he led his army into Youzhou State Shepherd's Mansion and personally beheaded State Shepherd Liu Yu.Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, advocated pacifying the outside world, educating the barbarians, and making them submit to the kingship of the Han Dynasty.Gongsun Zan, on the other hand, always advocated being tough with the outside world and would never compromise, but resolutely wiped out those who dared to invade the country, even if they were far away.Therefore, the foreign policies of these two Youzhou military and political officials are diametrically opposed, and they are completely incompatible, and there is no way to compromise.

Therefore, Liu Yu tried to depose Gongsun Zan's military power, so as to realize his political ambitions, govern with benevolence, and educate all people.And Gongsun Zan is not a kind person, and he will definitely not let others slaughter him.So after Gongsun Zan learned that Liu Yu had made up his mind to release his military power, he acted first and broke through the state pastoral mansion to capture and kill Liu Yu in one fell swoop.

Gongsun Zan, who led Youzhou as herdsman, rose sharply in power, sent Liu Yu's head to Chang'an, and paid a lot of money to befriend Li Li, hoping that the court would allow him to control the military and political power of Qingzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Youzhou; Therefore, he arbitrarily appointed Shan Jing as Yanzhou Mu, Yan Gang as Jizhou Mu, Tian Kai as Qingzhou Mu, led the former general and also served as Youzhou Mu.It is a pity that he never expected that Liu Yu's head was robbed halfway, and then the rebel army headed by Youzhou Sima Yan Rou fought back aggressively, contacting Qi Zhou, Xian Yuyin, Xian Yufu and other generals to rebel, which led to Youzhou civil strife.

At the same time, Gongsun Zan's dream of controlling the four states was also shattered.Fortunately, since then, he has reached a consensus with Xiliang Li Li and formed an alliance. Since then, they have been in close contact with each other.However, during the Sili war, Gongsun Zan only sent some war horses and food and grass rights as funding, and did not send troops to aid Li Li, citing frequent rebellions in the territory and instability in the rear.The Sili War lasted for nearly a year. After Gongsun Zan led the army to defeat Yan Rou, Xian Yufu and other rebels, he sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight.He became more and more arrogant, extravagant and dissipated, and became more arrogant and violent as time went by.His temperament has changed drastically, he has forgotten his righteousness, he has no sympathy for the common people, and he must avenge every grievance.This action made the soldiers under his command extremely chilling. If it weren't for the difficulty of leaving their homeland, many soldiers would abandon him and switch to other princes.

After Yuan Shao was defeated in Sili.Gongsun Zan took advantage of the situation to attack Jizhou, and took Bohai County, Zhongshan Kingdom, and most of Qingzhou's counties into his hands, greatly increasing his strength.This saved him a lot of hearts.After all, after winning a battle, many soldiers will instinctively selectively forget some unpleasant things, and thus return to Gongsun Zan's command.

However, the good times didn't last long, and Yuan Shao actively raised food and salaries after returning to Jizhou.Once again mobilize the army to counterattack Gongsun Zan.At this time, Gongsun Zan was enjoying himself in the mansion.He handed over the frontline battles to the generals under his command, so the Jizhou army was like a broken bamboo all the way, and the Youzhou army took the opportunity to retreat in one go, thus the previous counties and cities fell one after another, and returned to Yuan Shao.So far, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao have returned to the previous confrontation and stalemate, and everything is exactly the same as before the Sili War.

The only difference is that Gongsun Zan is no longer the former Gongsun Zan.His bloodiness is rapidly fading.No more bravery, let alone taking risks easily.There was no such thing as charging into battle anymore.In addition, he is extravagant and licentious, content with pleasure, allowing Yan Rou, Qi Zhou and other rebels to grow bigger every day without destroying them. Flattering villains stay by your side, such as Shi Guanjing, governor of Youzhou.

Now, three years have passed since the Sili War.

Yuan Shao in Jizhou not only regained his previous strength, but also snatched the emperor and hundreds of officials a year ago, and established Yecheng as his capital.Last year Yuan Shao mobilized a large army to attack Youzhou, but in the end he made a feint and hastily withdrew his troops; even so, Gongsun Zan was frightened into a cold sweat and frightened for a long time.

Winter went to spring, and now Yuan Shao made a comeback, mobilizing 20 troops to attack Youzhou, forcing Gongsun Zan to cheer up and go all out.Unexpectedly, after Yuan Shao's army arrived at the border, they suddenly stood still. Then Gongsun Zan learned that it was the general Li Li who called the princes from all towns to enter Yecheng to meet the emperor, which made Yuan Shao return to Yecheng halfway, and the Jizhou army stopped.

Just as Gongsun Zan breathed a sigh of relief, Yan Rou, Qi Zhou and other rebels entrenched in the barbarian grassland suddenly attacked the rear of Youzhou, catching Gongsun Zan by surprise and losing cities and territories one after another.As a last resort, Gongsun Zan had no choice but to lead the army to put down the rebellion. He fought fiercely with the rebel army composed of Yan Rou and some Wuhuan Qingqi. They fought very hard. Every battle was bloody and extremely tragic.

Until this morning, Gongsun Zan managed to command the army to defeat the rebels, but Youbeiping County City was also captured by the rebels, the city was severely damaged, and the casualties were extremely heavy.It can be said that if you kill one thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred, and the gains outweigh the losses.

After the war, Gongsun Zan resolutely ordered to abandon the county and led the army to withdraw from the city. He followed the advice of Chang Shi Guanjing and retreated to Yijing.

This is the origin of the tragic situation in Youbeiping City. Without the protection of the army, the people naturally dare not stay in the city anymore. They can only pack their bags and help the old and the young go away.But there are really not many places they can go, the Wuhuan Grassland is to the north, and the road to Jizhou in the south is also impassable due to the Battle of Jiyou. The only place to go is to go all the way west to Bingzhou.

On the way to lead the troops back to Yijing, Gongsun Zan was so anxious that he repeatedly asked Guan Jing when the Xiliang army would come to help.Just as Guan Jing was smacking his chest with certainty, promising that the reinforcements would be received within a month, Yan Gang, Gongsun Zan's confidant, suddenly interrupted: "The Xiliang army is a world-renowned army of tigers and wolves. Li Li asks for help, but the general is worried that this move is easy to ask the gods and difficult to send the gods away, it is tantamount to handing over Youzhou to Li Li!"

As soon as these words came out, Guan Jing's face turned livid, and he glared at Yan Gang with resentment. If eyes could kill, Yan Gang would have been torn apart by him.In fact, the question raised by Yan Gang is a cliché. It has been discussed many times before, but there is still no result.The reason why Gongsun Zan did not ask Li Li for help was because of this concern.But right now, Gongsun Zan was overwhelmed by Yuan Shao's army and Yan Rou's rebels, and had no choice but to ask Li Li for help. Before Guan Jing's envoy to Xiliang, he was ordered to ask Li Li to send troops for help.
