Chapter 89 [Tu Bo]'s Wrath II

Two days later, Gou Xi's subordinate Fan Qi arrived in Donglai County for the second time.

Faced with the ultimatum-like request of the governor of Qingzhou Gou Xi, Liu Yu hesitated and refused.

"I heard that Gou Qingzhou killed people every day in Linzi. Now the entire Qingzhou people are terrified. It is not a benevolent government that loves the people. This year, Donglai disasters are rampant, and fortunately, it is because of the exemption of taxes, which allows the people to breathe. If the envoys are so impatient, aren't you afraid that the people in Donglai County will be resentful?"

Liu Yu, who was sitting upright in the hall, said bluntly.

In the hall below, the guards and soldiers on both sides were holding swords and guns, staring at Fan Qi and his group with fierce looks.

When Fan Qi heard Liu Yu say this, he secretly complained in his heart. Liu Yu's son was obviously going to fight Gou Xi. As an official of the governor of Qingzhou, he should have protected Shangguan, but he was afraid of annoying Liu Yu and causing trouble, so he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"If the envoy is a hero, he is full of expectations from the country and has the ambition to slander the world. He should use heavy sanctions in troubled times. If he does not gather the power of Qingzhou, how to suppress the rebellion and rebellion."

At this time, a entourage official next to Fan Qi said.

"Who is you?"

"Secretary of the disciple, Liu Hui of Pengcheng."

Liu had imagined that there was no such person as Liu Hui in his impression.

"How dare you, a little clerk, talk about the world's affairs?"

Liu Yu did not expect that such a small clerk was not as scared as Fan Qi.

"If the envoy is really a man"

"Okay, there's no need to say anything, you guys will come back today."

Liu Yu did not let him speak again and directly issued an order to expel guests.

After driving Gou Xi's envoy out, the subordinates around Liu Yu began to say.

"Ming Gong, I'm afraid he will not give up when he offended Gou Xi this time."

"Yes, General, why don't I go and get back a few messengers, and we can comfort you with kind words, and at the least we can do a slowdown."

"What are you afraid of? Gou Xi, Tu Bo, really treats someone as his subordinate county magistrate. Nowadays, as long as the soldiers are strong in the troubled times, let him be the dog Xi and Niu Xi do whatever he can do to me."

Qingzhou, Linzi, the governor's office.

"It's extremely rampant, Liu Yu, the Taoist thief, is seeking death."

Qingzhou Governor Gou Xi was furious when he heard that Donglai Prefect Liu Yu disobeyed again.

"Brother, if I were to lead five thousand troops to attack Donglai County, I would definitely take Liu Yu's head back within ten days."

An official next to him in the robe of a military general said.

This person's name is Gou Chun, who is Gou Xi's younger brother and is currently a Bie Jia from Qingzhou.

"I heard that Liu Yu was the first general in the Donglai thief army before. Although he was a thief, he should have some skills. Now he has to have four or five thousand people. He may not be able to win within ten days with just five thousand soldiers."

Although Gou Xi looked down on Liu Bogen, the group of Donglai thieves who were devastated, he decided to look up to Liu Yu with caution in his plan to plan for the enemy.

"What do you think of that brother"

Gou Xi thought for a while and said.

"To deal with such stubborn thieves who are ignorant, you should be like a tiger fighting a rabbit, and you will be killed with one blow. In this way, you will immediately draw 10,000 troops and recruit some powerful soldiers. I will lead them to fight against the remnants of Liu Yu and these rebels."

Gou Chun was quite surprised to hear that his brother was going to lead his army to attack Liu Yu himself.

"If my brother goes to Donglai, what should I do with the thieves in Dunqiu, Yanzhou?"

Shortly after Gou Xi was transferred from Yanzhou to Qingzhou by Sima Yue, Wei Zhi, the prefect of Dunqiu County, Yanzhou, was forced to rebel by 50,000 or 60,000 refugees, and half of Yanzhou was alarmed. The Luoyang court could only hope that Gou Xi would go to quell the rebellion again.

"Hmph, didn't Sima Yue already take over the governor of Yanzhou by himself? Let him worry about it himself."

Gou Xi now holds a grudge against Sima Yue, the King of East China Sea, and wants Sima Yue to be ugly.

When the situation in Yanzhou develops to the point where Sima Yue can't handle it, he will bear the hope of quelling the rebellion. At that time, his fame will be further increased. At that time, he will lead his troops to Yanzhou to see what Sima Yue can do to him.

"Brother, there are 50,000 or 60,000 thieves in Dunqiu. If they are allowed to rage, will they become a big shot?" Gou Chun said with some concern.

"The prefect of Dunqiu, Wei Zhiyong, was one of the Yongcai, and one of the Yongcai led a group of mobs. What's the point of being scary? When I come back from Donglai County, I can wipe them out in a blink of an eye."

Because they have all the household registration books in Qingzhou, which clearly records which household has a few people, each person's name, age and physical condition. Gou Chun waved his pen to the household registration and selected the soldiers who needed to be recruited.

When Gou Xi ordered the attack on the rebels of Donglai County and ordered the transfer of children of various powerful men to join the army, none of these powerful men dared to disobey.

After all, Gou Xi came to Qingzhou with tens of thousands of victorious troops, and after months of killing and establishing his authority, no one in Linzi was not afraid of him.

Therefore, under the order of Gou Envoy's recruitment, these powerful men not only dared not disobey, but instead had to double down on Gou Xi's order, for fear that they would not do well enough and would cause Gou Xi to kill people and kill him.

Moreover, the soldiers recruited by Gou Xi were all above Huang Ce, and these people were the children of powerful families. How could they go there alone when they go to war? The worst one must have a slave with them.

By the time Gou Xi led his army to leave Linzi and set out eastward, the total number of troops under his command far exceeded the expected 20,000, and had reached more than 40,000.

Most of these powerful men in Qi did not understand military affairs, and they met Gou Xi, who was strict in governing the army. After leaving Linzi, four or five people had violated military laws and were beheaded after leaving only three miles away.

For a moment, all the soldiers in the army were silent as cold as cicadas, and everyone became extremely careful, for fear of being punished for beheading.

Gou Xi also patrolled the supply preparations of various counties along the way, and everyone who was short of numbers was punished. Even if some officials made small mistakes, Gou Xi did not report the impeachment of the officials, so he beheaded the person on the spot because he had the scepter of false scepters and had the right to kill small officials and civilians during the war.

In this way, Gou Xi led tens of thousands of troops to kill people. By the time he arrived at Beihai County, which was close to Donglai County in five days, he had already killed more than 100 people in five days.

When Gou Xi entered Pingshou City, the people in the city heard that Tu Bo had come and ran away 70% to 80%.
