Soldiers come to the world

Guo Song hurriedly said: "Magistrate Zhou, I will take a few brothers to block the side door. I am afraid that the victims will rush into the county office through the side door."

Magistrate Zhou glanced at him, then remembered that this fat man should not be present, and said, "You go! Keep the side door well."

Guo Song turned around and ran towards the side door. As soon as he ran out of the lobby, his subordinates surrounded him, "Boss, what should we do?"

"What should I do? Damn, run! If you don't escape, it will be too late."

Where did Guo Song go to guard the side door, he led the crowd to open the side door and ran away.

. . . . . .

"Villagers, wait a moment, I will distribute money and food immediately, everyone has a share!"

Although County Magistrate Zhou stood on the steps and told the people over and over again to prepare for the distribution of food and asked them to wait a moment, more than 1 hungry people had lost their reason and patience under the double torment of hunger and anger.

People from Xingyuanhui shouted among the hungry people: "The dog officer is cheating and delaying time. Let's go to the warehouse to get food!"

More than 1 people roared angrily. Led by dozens of members of the Xingyuanhui, the crowd finally broke out. Like a flood, they rushed into the county government office and knocked down more than a dozen officials including the county magistrate Zhou. On the ground, amidst the screams, more than a dozen government officials, including Zhou County Magistrate, were beaten to death by the angry crowd.

The hungry people broke open the gate of the county government office, and people rushed into the granaries and storehouses in a turbulent flow. , screams, cries, the whole county went crazy.

But the result surprised everyone. The huge granary was empty and there was no more food. Angry people broke into the warehouse again and robbed the tax money. At this time, thousands of Xingyuanhui soldiers who were fully armed Surrounded the county government office and the square from all directions, and controlled more than [-] people who did not escape.

Li Fu stood on the roof and shouted: "Fellow folks, we are not officers and soldiers of the Cao bandits, we are Yuan Gong's subordinates, and we are here to rescue everyone!"

Tens of thousands of people stared blankly at Li Fu on the roof. Yuan Shao treated the people generously and was very popular in Hebei counties. When they heard that it was Yuan Gong's army, everyone's fear was finally slowly dissipated.

"I want to tell everyone again that Cangcheng's army is coming. They will take revenge on everyone. They will kill everyone. They will kill you, our wives, children, and parents. All young and strong men will stand up and protect their families with us!"

. . . . . . . . .

Yi County played an extremely important role in Cao Jun's expedition to Wuhuan in Liaodong. There are still a lot of food supplies in the county warehouse city.

Cangcheng in Yixian County is located on a gentle hill about five miles east of the county seat. The perimeter of the city wall is twelve miles. There are hundreds of huge warehouses in Cangcheng. There are currently 3000 garrisons, commanded by a Sima from another department .

Cangcheng in Yi County is directly under the military and under the direct jurisdiction of Yedu, and has nothing to do with the local government. If the local government wants to use the Cangcheng army, it must also ask Yedu for instructions, and Yedu will issue an order to the Cangcheng army.

However, things are not so absolute. If the situation is urgent, such as fire fighting and disaster relief, and the scope of troop deployment is not large, the army can also handle it first, and then go through the formalities afterwards. In this way, it depends on the personal relationship between the two parties. .

The general in charge of the Cangcheng army is named Kong Yuan, who is from Yingchuan, but he has a concubine in Yi County, and usually drinks with a group of officials such as the county magistrate, and has a very good relationship in private, so when Kong Yuan When Sima received the request for help from the county, he led two thousand soldiers to Yi County without hesitation to suppress the rioters.

In fact, Kong Yuan was not only showing face to County Magistrate Zhou, but he was also worried about the situation of his concubine in the county. Son, this is of extraordinary significance to Kong Yuan, who is over [-] years old but still childless.

The situation is unstable recently, Kong Yuan had long wanted to take his concubine to live in Cangcheng, but Cao Jun's military regulations are strict, once he is reported, he will lose his official position, he dare not take this risk, he just sent a dozen of his confidants Soldiers are stationed in the county seat to protect their mansions in the county seat.

Kong Yuan heard about the riots of the hungry people in the county town. He was worried about the situation of his concubine, and he became even more anxious. He repeatedly urged the army to speed up. The 2000-man team ran all the way, and when they were two miles away from the county town, suddenly someone shouted in the woods on the side of the road: "Kong Sima!"

When Kong Yuan turned his head, he saw a dozen people running out of the woods not far away, guarding a carriage. The leader was an extremely fat and tall official. Kong Yuan recognized at a glance that he was the thief Cao Guosong. The fellow from the same township, not long after he took office, often came to Cangcheng to find him for drinking and gambling.

The dozen or so people behind were all yamen servants, but Kong Yuan recognized the carriage at a glance. Isn't that the carriage he used in the county seat?Surprised in his heart, he quickly ordered: "Stop advancing!"

The army stopped running, Kong Yuan hurried forward and asked, "Why is Brother Guo here?"

Guo Song patted his chest with lingering fear and said: "The hungry people rioted, the magistrate of Zhou county was beaten to death by the mob, the county was looting everywhere, I ran to General Kong's mansion to take refuge, unexpectedly there were hundreds of mob besieging there, the general's personal soldiers were there Standing up to resist, I protected the general's wife and escaped through the back door, and wanted to go to Cangcheng to take refuge, and I happened to meet the general."

Kong Yuan was taken aback, he pointed to the carriage, "Is my wife in the carriage?"

"In the car, but frightened, doesn't seem to be doing well."

At this time, Kong Yuan's concubine's low-pitched voice came from the carriage, "General, I'm in the carriage."

"Ah Huan, how are you doing now?" Kong Yuan asked anxiously, his concubine was seven months pregnant, so nothing happened!

"I...I'm afraid I can't."

At this time, Guo Song whispered from the side: "General, go and have a look! Madam is bleeding, we are inconvenient."

Kong Yuan was shocked, all his hopes were in his concubine's belly, but he must not have a miscarriage, he got off the horse, opened the door and got into the carriage, but when he got into the carriage, his eyes were darkened, and a black cloth bag covered her. His head, an arm like an iron rod strangled his neck and dragged him into the carriage.

After a while, his hood was removed, his hands were tied behind his back, and his mouth was blocked with a rag. Slowly he got used to the darkness in the carriage. In front of him was a tall and burly man in black. When he turned around, there was also a man behind him. A man in black, in the darkness, stared at him coldly like a wolf.

And his concubine was lying on the other side, and another middle-aged man was sitting beside her, a sharp dagger was placed on her Gao Long's stomach, the concubine looked at him in horror and pleadingly.

At this time, the middle-aged man sitting next to the concubine said slowly: "We are not bandits, let alone mobs, we are from Youzhou Captain Yan, I assure you, your wife is intact now, so far , did not suffer any harm, but I can't guarantee the future."

After finishing speaking, the man reached out and picked up the dagger from the concubine's stomach, turned it in one direction, pointed the sharp point at Kong Yuan, and cast a cold glance at Kong Yuan, without saying anything, I believe Kong Yuan understood.

Kong Yuan's mind was in a mess. These people turned out to be Yan Rou's people. Could it be that Yan Rou was going to rebel?When he saw the dagger in the concubine's belly again, the sharp point of the dagger made him shiver, and he immediately thought of the child in the concubine's belly, which was his only hope and also his greatest weakness.

Kong Yuan was immediately discouraged, and the resentment and fury in his heart disappeared without a trace. He nodded weakly, and the middle-aged man laughed. He winked, and the strong man next to him immediately took out the rag from Kong Yuan's mouth. After leaving, Kong Yuan immediately stared at the middle-aged man and asked, "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm going to Jiang Yiqu, does General Kong know?"

Kong Yuan was stunned for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "You... aren't you a general under Yuan Shao's command?"

"I'm under Yan Xiaowei now, so please rest assured, General Kong, I'm not a bandit, and I must keep my word."

"Then what do you want to do?"

Jiang Qi smiled slightly, "Kong Sima doesn't need to think too much, we just want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"It's very simple. We want your army and Yixian Cangcheng. After the matter is completed, we will reward Kong Sima with a thousand taels of gold. You can take your wife and leave."

"Hmph!" Kong Yuan snorted coldly, "What if I don't agree?"

Jiang Qi still calmly said: "If you don't agree, it's very simple. I'm afraid General Kong will have no heirs."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the dagger, and lightly scratched Kong Yuan's concubine's stomach twice, and stared at Kong Yuan coldly. Kong Yuan thought of his unborn son, and his last sense of resistance disappeared. After a while, he sighed and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Jiang Qi laughed, "It's very simple, order all the officers above the village chief to go to the woods to discuss military affairs!"

. . . . . . . . .

As the sky gradually darkened, Kong Yuan returned to Cangcheng with [-] soldiers. At this time, there were still [-] soldiers guarding Cangcheng, commanded by a general surnamed Yang.

Kong Yuan ordered the officers to go to the woods to discuss the military situation, but was captured by the army ambushing in the woods, and the two thousand soldiers were forced to surrender. Now the two thousand soldiers behind him are no longer the original army.

At this time, Kong Yuan understood the truth, it was not Yan Rou's army, but Yuan Shao's old army was going to revolt, which made him very scared, but at the same time he had already fallen into a quagmire and could not deal with the aftermath.

Of course he will not participate in the uprising. For him, the best choice is to accept the conditions, and then flee with 1000 taels of gold and the money collected in the past few years, find a safe place to hide his name, and become a rich man for the rest of his life. .

Behind Kong Yuan, Jiang Qi ordered coldly: "Call the city!"

Kong Yuan had no choice but to bite his head and shout under the city: "Quickly open the city gate!"

Seeing that it was the main general returning, the guards on the city hurriedly opened the city gate, and the deputy general came out to welcome him, and said with a smile, "Sima went to the county town, it will be very rewarding!"

"I'll give you a share later."

With a wave of Kong Yuan's hand, the army marched towards the city. Seeing that most of the soldiers had already entered the city, Kong Yuan said to the lieutenant general: "General Yang, I can't help myself, I'm sorry!"

The lieutenant was stunned, before he could react, the soldiers beside him rushed up, pushed him to the ground and tied him up, the lieutenant shouted anxiously: "Kong Sima, what happened?"

Kong Yuan ignored him, turned back to Jiang Qi and said, "I have done what I promised, the general will not break his promise!"

"Of course I won't break my promise, but I have to ask General Kong to do a small thing, and then let General Kong go."

"what's up?"

"General Kong can write an urgent letter to Cao Pi, the capital of Ye, saying that Yuan Gong's old department supported Yuan Mai as the new lord, and started an uprising in Yi County, with more than [-] troops, sweeping across the north of Hejian, and the people of Hebei responded one after another. .”

. . . . . . . . .

In late October of the 13th year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao's old army took advantage of Cao Cao's expedition to the south to support Yuan Shao's youngest son, Yuan Mai Fuxing, in Yi County, and established a new Yuan army. People suffering from the locust plague in the northern part of Hejian County rushed to Yi County.

The new Yuan army planted a big banner on the head of Yi County, and wrote the word "Xingyuan", attracting righteous men from all over the world to come to serve, like a gathering of rain, more than [-] soldiers were recruited within five days, with a great momentum.

The revival of the Yuan family in Yi County attracted responses from all over Hebei. Zhang Yi, a Hejian tycoon, rebelled in Chengping County, recruited [-] troops and conquered Lecheng County, the prefecture of Nanpi County.

In addition, Qinghe tycoon Luo Jun, Anping tycoon Li Xing, Bohai tycoon Gao Yi and other local tyrants who were pro-Yuan raised their troops to respond.

All of a sudden, the prosperity of Yuan in various parts of Hebei was surging, and the distress letters from the local governments were sent to Yedu like a snowflake.
