Chapter 8 (2/2)
Song he opened his eyes and laughed: ”well, I didn't expect you to be so brave. It seems that I have to rely on you for the preservation of the cities.”
Zhang Jiao launched the Yellow turban uprising in Julu, Jizhou. His subordinates were divided into 36 parties. Although Han Qiqi was invincible among Zhou Jun, his reputation was unknown to song he. Song he thought that Liu Ye's ”great general” was just a military Marquis, so he didn't think much about it.
”Alas, the bandit army besieged the city. It's time to employ people. Unfortunately, the Marquis Fang died in battle, and no one can replace him...” Song he sighs and looks at Liu Ye.
One side of Zhang Zun frowned slightly, thinking that the county magistrate was so generous that he had to entrust the military Marquis's responsibility to Liu Ye, who had been convicted of the crime, as soon as he met? You should know that Liu Ye is just an interlocutor. At most, he is a famous Ranger.
Liu Ye's heart thumped when he heard this. In the military system of the Han Dynasty, there were five men in one team, ten people in a group, and fifty people in a garrison. The Marquis was in charge of a group of people and 200 soldiers under his command. It would be a great advantage if he could get a marquis.
However, song he changed his words: ”Liu Ye, you are brave and brave. After all, you are guilty of killing the enemy. Today, the merits and demerits of killing the enemy with blood are equal. I promoted you to be the village leader. You command the prisoners to fight bravely. As long as you kill the enemy bravely, I will not grudge the reward for the position of marquis. Do you understand?”
It turns out that song he didn't want to make Liu Ye a marquis at all. Even if Liu Ye's family is pure and innocent, it's impossible. But now that the bandit army is besieging the city, the situation is critical. Therefore, song he uses the Marquis as bait to make Liu Ye work for himself and to control Liu Ye in his hands.
Playing with political skills is a necessary means to become an official. Song he had been in office for many years, so he naturally immersed himself in this way and wanted to play with Liu Ye.
Liu Ye suddenly understood, but on the contrary, he pretended to be excited.
”Thank you very much. Mr. Liu must be brave enough to kill the thief in order to repay the county magistrate's kindness.” As he spoke, Liu Ye's face flushed with blood, and his Adam's knot was up and down. He seemed excited and speechless.Song he laughs, caresses his long beard, and says: ”very well, go down. As long as you kill the thief and do meritorious deeds, I will not be stingy with the reward.”
Liu Ye nods excitedly, and soon after he turns to leave, Zhang Zun steps forward: ”the county magistrate is very clever, and he has seduced such a powerful general as Liu Shaoqing by the head of a small village, which is really amazing to me.”
Song he didn't speak with a smile, thinking: these rangers are like this, but they can't say a word because of their official duties. They can make them defend the city for themselves. As long as they can support Gongjing, the governor stationed in Linzi, to send troops to help, Licheng county will be saved.
Song he was short of information. He did not know that the Yellow turban uprising had already swept the world, and millions of troops ran across the eight states. He had been looking forward to the reinforcements of Gongjing, the governor of Qingzhou, who was besieged by tens of thousands of yellow turban thieves. He did not dare to come out of Linzi city. At most, it was relying on the strong city to protect itself.
Sometimes, the lack of information is a good thing. If song he knew the real situation, he would have no confidence in guarding the city.
Liu Ye steps out and takes a brand-new leather mask, a leather helmet, a long head sword and a ring head sword from the armory. After that, he walks towards the east city, and the listless martial morality suddenly jumps up.
”Big brother! What kind of officer did the county magistrate appoint you? ”
