Chapter 412: Misfortune comes from the mouth and urgent from the book
"The Huns are ahead!"
Opposite, among the Mercedes-Benz cavalry, someone cheered loudly!
This group of people was the cavalry of the Tuoba Xianbei, and the one who led them was Tuoba Yulu.
The young leader of the Tuoba Xianbei also looked excited at this time, and looked at the team of the Huns in front of him and smiled.
"Mr. Chen is really a clever plan. He really lets us meet the Huns here. Isn't Liu Yao the one who leads him? He, the Hun general, was very powerful in the past! The previous battle also caused us to suffer a lot, but now he appears here. How can he let him go!"
The more Tuoba Yulu spoke, the more excited he became. He immediately accelerated the Mercedes-Benz and ran forward!
"What a pity! The Huns obviously experienced hard battles, but I didn't bring everyone!"
With his long-standing experience on the battlefield, it is still impossible to see that this Hun cavalry is a tired soldier and the troops are not in a mess. It is obvious that he has experienced a hard battle and is at the end of his strength!
Faced with such a team, the cavalry led by Tuoba Yulu can be said to be a new force. They have an advantage in morale and physical strength. Of course, they are unwilling to miss such an opportunity!
"Mr. Chen specially asked Brother Zhao to send a message, just for this moment, and he must not let Liu Yao go! It's a pity, but I was skeptical before, so I reserved it. I brought not many people and brought many people back, otherwise there would be no suspense today!"
With this idea, he did not hesitate and led the Xianbei cavalry to rush forward. With his morale, energy, physical strength and number advantages, he blocked the necessary path, and then rushed over with a whistling!
In this way, the Hun cavalry was forced to retreat!
"Don't retreat! Go forward!"
Liu Yao pulled out the long knife from his waist and shouted!
"There is a narrow path behind, with nowhere to go, and there are also Han chasing soldiers. How can we get rid of it? Only by rushing forward, only by rushing over can we survive!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed forward!
The young warrior was followed closely by Liu Yao's loyalty. Seeing this situation, he followed without hesitation!
With these two people as role models, the others immediately looked the same and rushed up yellingly!
The battle between two nomadic peoples began!
The cold light flashed, the horse's hooves stomped, the metal and iron sang, and blood scattered on the ground, and the roars and screams continued to alternate, forming the most primitive and barbaric tune.
……………………
"The Huns are here obviously because of the new prefect." Gongcao Shilanluo shook his head and sighed.
Opposite him, there were county chief Liu Bao, county magistrate Lu Yan, facial features Geng Qing and others, all of them were full of sorrow.
If the people of Dai County come here and see the lineup in the house, they will be reluctant to sigh that most of the senior officials from the county gather here.
However, the senior officials who are usually very powerful now don’t care about any of their power, and they have encountered big problems.
What everyone was worried about was the question Lan Luo was talking about: "The prefect Chen came here and attracted the Huns. I don't know how many attacks from the Huns will fall on Dai County in the future. In the past, it can still be used to appease Liu Kun and let Liu Kun take the lead. In the future, our Dai County will probably become Liu Kun's bait and help him attract the Hun army!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone frowned and frowned.
In front of Chen Zhi, they all showed great wisdom, but that was for others to see. If it really happened to them, the situation would be different.
Especially people like Lan Luo and Geng Qing, although they are officials, they are closely related to the interests of local aristocratic families. Their wives and concubines have the legitimate daughter of the local family and the concubine. After several years of being an official, they have also received a lot of filial piety from the local aristocratic families and clans, and they have long been a loss.
Not to mention the Duwei Zheng Shi and others, they were just from aristocratic families. Because the three mutual laws were in name only, they did not have to avoid the countryside and could hold a high position in the local area.
Since the children of such aristocratic families have gained much real benefits for their families since they were in power, their main manifestations are their industries and land, as well as many tenants and tribes who depend on the land.
They were protecting the land, just protecting their own interests, but if they attracted the attention of the Huns and the army came over every few days, they just wanted to protect them, and they couldn't even protect them. I don't know how many complaints they had about Chen Zhi.
"These are still far away," Lu said at this time. "There is another big problem in front of you, which is about the prefect of Lu District. This prefect Lu has been in power for three years. No matter how many grudges we have with him, or whether we admire his character and ability to govern, one thing cannot be changed. That is, this person is the confidant of the general and the imperial official. He died on the territory of our Dai County. If the court pursues the matter, it will be a matter immediately, and it is close to you! Moreover, the prosecution of the court is not terrible. If the general is held accountable, who can afford it? That person often kills people!"
"Yes, this is the most troublesome thing at the moment!" Liu Bao also shook his head, his eyes full of worry, "Who knows how to decide this? Logically speaking, the Xiongnu was a rebellious, but the Northern Army was defeated before, and the imperial court endured it. Over the past year, he no longer mentioned that he would turn a blind eye to the Xiongnu's attack on the border and harass the Xiongnu. Not long ago, there were also county magistrates who were killed, and even Sima in the army was killed, which ended up being left alone. The county magistrate was killed and he would probably turn a big deal out of the matter. He would not pursue the investigation with the Xiongnu, but it was hard to say anything about it."
Commander Zheng Shi nodded and said, "After the matter of the county magistrate, the entire county, from top to bottom, can be said to have been slapped to the end. No one in any position could be spared. As for the deaths of Sima in the army several times, the relevant generals, staff, subordinates, and even soldiers, from the front army to the baggage camp, people were held accountable, demoted, or dismissed, and some were simply questioned! County magistrate, Sima is still like this, let alone the county magistrate? Especially, we are watching the head of the county magistrate Lu... the head was taken away by the thief, and what's more serious is that they were previously displayed by the Huns in front of the city gate. If the news spreads, what's really unpredictable is how we will deal with it!"
Liu Bao sighed and said, "Yes, actually, the Huns acted violently and killed the prefect. This is a serious crime. If we can save Prefect Lu's head, it will be considered a merit. It may be offset by a lot of guilt. In addition, the Huns invaded and the border troops were not in good condition, so they should also bear the responsibility. This addition and subtraction may lead to the matter, but the problem is that the Huns ran away!"
Lu Yan also said bitterly: "The Lu family doesn't know what to say yet. Prefect Lu was not valued by the Lu family in the past, but since he was a worker in the north, the Lu family has become more and more closely connected with him. How can we bear it if we vent our anger?"
The room was filled with clouds of sorrow.
Geng Qing, the facial features officer, suddenly said, "There is one thing you didn't mention. In fact, what is most worrying is the background of Chen Taishou."
As soon as this said, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at him with a complicated expression.
Almost everyone has considered this problem, but they have not said it out loud, but they have concerns. Now that someone has started, they have finally broken their tacit understanding.
"Behind Chen Taishou is the Taipu and the Yang family. He is a new member of the office. I heard that even the emperor favors him. I think he would not step down for some reason as soon as he took office. The superiors may have to suppress his responsibilities, but when Lu Taishou's head was taken away, it would be difficult to deal with this matter. Maybe he will have to pull a few people in the end and take responsibility for him!"
Everyone's faces were gloomy. No matter how they thought, they were all ideal candidates to take the blame.
"Just..." Suddenly, Lan Luo hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone here should know very well. We are all grasshoppers on a rope, and we will suffer losses. But if we can unify our caliber and put the responsibility on the new county magistrate, there may be a turning point. After all,... the law does not blame everyone!"
He said that the rest of the people had a change in their expressions and signs of intentional movement.
But they knew very well that they could not express their opinions easily, so they did not say much.
"It depends on the situation." Liu Bao followed the trend and did not get entangled with this issue. "It's getting late. We gathered like this, but it's actually taboo. We can use the Huns as an excuse today. But if it's too long, if it's passed, it will inevitably make the prefect suspicious. I think it's better to disperse."
"The chief minister said it is reasonable."
The others agreed, nodded repeatedly, and soon left.
Looking at everyone's reaction, Lan Luo regretted it and knew that his proposal was a bit rash. Even if others were just thinking, they would not express their opinions easily when the situation was unclear. Instead, they were pushed to the front because of their temporary impatientness.
"No! If someone rumors, wouldn't I become a scapegoat?"
When Lan Luo returned home, the more he thought about it, the more worried he was. He couldn't eat or sleep. Finally, he just got up in the middle of the night and went to the table to write something.
"Husband, what are you worried about? Is it because of the Huns?"
Lan Luo's wife Liu is the daughter of the Liu family in Dai County. She is also from a noble family and has a lot of knowledge. The Huns are coming in a fierce manner. How could the people in the city not know about it? So this question is.
"My wife, I am confused today. If it is accidentally spoken, if it is heard by the new prefect, I will offend people. I don't know what will happen. For the sake of the present, I can only surrender to the general."
"What?" Liu was surprised to hear this, "What did your husband say today?"
Lan Luo briefly said what he said when everyone gathered in the evening, and finally said: "It is said that the general has a prejudice against this new prefect, and Lu Qu is the general's confidant. If I am willing to surrender, I will arrange some words and win the favor of the general. With his support, I think even Chen Zhi can't do anything to me."
"Not good," unexpectedly, Liu shook his head, "Husband, please listen to my words. People say that Chen is a famous scholar in Qingxu, with a broad mind and a talented man. He only has one or two words. I think that Chen's prefect won't punish others because of his words. As long as your husband is loyal to his duties, the prefect will know your heart."
