The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 737 Chapter 736

Meng Huo occupied Dianchi City without any effort, and wiped out Yong Kai, Gao Ding, Zhu Bao and others.

In addition, Meng Huo also ransacked and beheaded the whole family of Yong Kai, confiscated all their property, and killed anyone with the surname Yong as soon as they were caught.The poor surname Yong is also the most common surname in Nanzhong. After Meng Huo made such a move, almost the entire family was wiped out. In the end, only a younger brother of Yong Kai fled to Jiaozhou with his family.

The influence of the Yong surname in Nanzhong was also uprooted. Meng Huo took all the wealth of the Yong surname as his own, without any mercy.

However, Gao Ding and Zhu Bao were not from Nanzhong, and they were slaughtered together with the surname Yong.

Meng Huo suddenly became the king of Nanzhong, and appointed the generals to occupy the counties and counties, firmly controlled the five counties of Nanzhong, and changed the name of Yizhou County to Jianning County. Yongchang County was divided into several counties to form Yunnan County, and Wang Fu and Li Hui, who had helped him, were appointed as Jianning prefect and Yunnan prefect respectively.

Yong Kai, Gao Ding, and Zhu Bao all died one after another, and the Yong surname was also uprooted. All the wealth of the Yong surname was taken over by Meng Huo. Considering the prestige of the Dao Meng family among the Han people in Nanzhong, Meng Huo had to rely on the Meng family to stabilize the Han people in Nanzhong.

After Meng Huo occupied Nanzhong, he appointed a confidant as the prefect. In addition, he continued to gather a large army and prepared to go north to attack Chengdu.

In the city of Dianchi Lake, it has been more than half a month since Meng Huo killed Yong Kai and others. Meng Huo has been living in the city of Dianchi Lake, enjoying the fine clothes, fine food, fine wine and delicacies left by Yong Kai every day. I really feel that this is the life of a god. .

Although Wang Fu and Li Hui were appointed as prefects by Meng Huo, Meng Huo did not allow them to take up the post, but stayed by his side all the time, letting these two resourceful Han people help him make suggestions.

Although Mrs. Wang was appointed as the prefect of Yizhou, and the prefect's office was in Dianchi City, only a hundred steps away from where Meng Huo was now, Meng Huo never let Mrs. Wang leave his side for half a step.

In addition, those Han soldiers who had surrendered were all imprisoned in the dungeon and handed over to special guards. It can be seen that Meng Huo did not trust the Han people.

The mansion where Meng Huo lived was exactly Yong Kai's mansion, but after Yong Kai was ransacked and beheaded, Yong's mansion became Meng's mansion, and Meng Huo directly occupied it and became his private mansion.

The hall was full of singing and dancing, and Meng Huo held a beautiful woman in his arms, drinking wine from time to time, looking at the beauties dancing in the hall, looking so happy.

In the hall, Mrs. Wang and Li Hui sat there quietly and accompanied Meng Huo. In addition, there were also Meng Huo's younger brother Meng You and Meng Huo's trusted confidant Duo Si.

Meng You and Meng Huo were about the same in appearance, they were brothers of the same mother, seven or eight years younger than Meng Huo, and his greedy appearance was even uglier than Meng Huo.

Dosi is Meng Huo's confidant, a tribal leader of the Yi people. He studied with the Han people for several years in his early years, and he also has some insights.

Duo Si is thin and small, with a nose that looks like an eagle, deep eyes, and no matter who she looks at, there is a kind of lust.This man didn't speak much, and he arrived the day after Meng Huo captured Dianchi City.

Moreover, Duosi was the one who beheaded, uprooted, and exterminated the entire family of the Yong family.It was precisely because of Dosi's suggestion that Meng Huo was so determined to kill that he didn't even listen to the advice of Wang Fu and Li Hui.

It can be seen from this that Dosi holds a high position in Meng Huo's heart.

Wang Fu and Li Hui sat on the side, drinking wine without interest, Wang Fu looked at Li Hui with complaining eyes from time to time, and now he has begun to regret, regretting that he helped Li Hui kill Yong Kai.

However, what's the use of regretting, people are already dead, so it's meaningless to talk about it.

In fact, not only Wang and his wife regretted it, but even Li Hui regretted it. Li Hui wanted to take this opportunity to kill Yong Kai, but who knew that Meng Huo would be so bloody that he followed Duosi's suggestion and killed Yong Kai.

Both of them were drinking wine in a sullen mood, and neither of them spoke for several days.

After the banquet was over, Wang Fu and Li Hui went back to their houses and never came out again.

In the back hall of the Meng Mansion, Meng Huo, Meng You, and Duo Si all gathered together to discuss the dispatch of troops.

"Now that our army has completely occupied the southern and central counties, it's time to go north and attack Chengdu." Meng Huo said straight to the point, "I don't know if you have any opinions?"

Meng You said: "I've been waiting for this time for a long time, brother just give the order."

Meng Huo had never paid much attention to Meng You's opinion. He stared at Dosi curiously, looking forward to Dosi's speech.

Dosi also did as Meng Huo wished, and did not disappoint him, and said, "It may not be a good thing to send troops at this time."

"How do you say that?" Meng Huo asked hastily.

Duosi said: "The imperial court has sent two armies to attack Zhang Fei. It has been more than half a month. It stands to reason that Zhang Fei can no longer hold on. But there is no news from Chengdu. Moreover, Zhang Fei has already Order Wu Yi and Wu Ban to set up heavy troops on the road that must be passed. Although our army has a large number of troops, most of them are infantry. It is okay to fight in the mountains. Once we reach the flat ground, there is no advantage. Wu Yi and Wu Ban are just You can borrow cavalry and wait for work with leisure. It will definitely be a fierce battle. It is better for our army to sit quietly and watch the changes. If the imperial army invades Yizhou and occupies Chengdu, then we will choose to be loyal to the imperial court. If it is If Zhang Fei is victorious, then we should actively fortify. Zhang Fei from the province personally led the army to attack. In short, no matter who gets Chengdu, it will not have much influence on us. The king finally gathered so many teams, why? Then let them go to die in a hurry."

"We have a strong army and horses, and the king is martial and wise. Why do you say that we are going to die?" Meng You retorted.

Duosi said: "At first glance, we do have 20 troops, but in fact, how many people are really capable of fighting, I believe the king should know better than me. War can't just rely on the number of people, but also the number of people." Looking at the strength comparison between the two sides, if the opponent is stronger than us, we are attacking the stone with an egg. If we are stronger than the opponent, then we will take the initiative to attack. My lord, have our subordinates been trained effectively?"

Meng Huo shook his head.

Duosi said: "I don't guarantee that we will be dragged to the battlefield without trained people. Moreover, this time we are not fighting at our own doorstep, but leaving our hometown and going far away. We don't care about the complexity of the terrain when fighting in a different place, but how can we take down the enemy's city? This time we captured Dianchi City because of luck. If the enemy really sticks to the city, we can count on it day and night. It may not be possible to attack immediately. Therefore, please stay calm and stay in Nanzhong to train soldiers to deal with the future situation."

After Meng Huo listened to it, he felt that what Dosi said was very reasonable, but after thinking about it, Wang Fu and Li Hui were persuading him to send troops, thinking that this was the best opportunity, and he didn't want to miss this opportunity, and it was an important opportunity. Golden opportunity.

"However, Mrs. Wang and Li Hui advised me to send troops immediately and attack Chengdu with lightning speed." Meng Huo said hesitantly.

Duo Si said: "Your Majesty, you must not easily believe the words of those two Han people. They are bewitching Your Majesty. If Your Majesty really sent troops, it would be a big mistake!"

Meng Huo said with displeasure, "However, without the help of Mrs. Wang and Li Hui, I wouldn't have won Dianchi City so smoothly. Maybe I'm still fighting Yong Kai now!"

Duosi said: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Wang and Li Hui are all Han Chinese, and they are all treacherous people. Such people should not stay with you for a long time, otherwise, it will be bad for your Majesty. I thought it would be better to send someone to detain these two people." Kill him personally to avoid future troubles."

Meng Huo said: "In this way, which Han people are willing to serve me again?"

"People who are not of my race will have a different heart! Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Duosi said earnestly.

Meng Huo waved his hand and said, "Go down first, and leave me alone. I will seriously consider your opinion."

Seeing this, Duo Si didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Meng You stood there, motionless.Seeing this, Meng Huo asked, "Why are you still here?"

Seeing Duosi walking away, Meng You dared to speak: "Brother, don't believe what Duosi said, I think Duosi is jealous of Mrs. Wang and Li Hui..."

"Jealous? What do they have to make Dosi jealous?" Meng Huo asked.

Meng Youdao: "In the past, only Duosi was the only one who advised the elder brother, but now there are two more people, and the elder brother seems to value them very much, so Dosi dislikes them, thinking that they are dividing his rights , that's why Dosi slandered them like this, hoping that elder brother would kill them both."

Meng Huo savored Meng You's words carefully, and felt that there was some truth in it.So Meng Huo said to Meng You: "I wrote down what you said. It seems that you see it more thoroughly than I do. I didn't see why Dosi asked me to kill Mrs. Wang and Li Hui just now. them."

Meng You said: "Brother, you must not kill them. Once you kill them, everyone in Han will be in danger in the future. Who would dare to join your brother? Besides, Mrs. Wang and Li Hui are indeed well-read people. Duosi only went to school for a few days, and then started to show off in front of the elder brother. I think they are not of the same class at all. If the elder brother doesn't believe it, it is better to call Wang and Li Hui over and ask for their opinions. ?”

Meng Huo said: "Forget it, let me think about it again. I will talk about the rest later. You should go down first."

"Here!"

After Meng You left, Meng Huo fell into deep contemplation. Dosi had followed him for many years and had always been his confidant. It was mostly due to Dosi that he was so powerful in Nanzhong.Now Duosi asked him to kill Mrs. Wang and Li Hui, but he couldn't bear it.After all, Wang Fu and Li Hui are the great heroes this time, if they are killed, it will definitely chill some people's hearts.

Therefore, Meng Huo felt that it was better not to do anything, and to wait and see what happened. As for the matter of sending troops, he would gather all the generals tomorrow to discuss together and see what everyone thought.
