Chapter 81: Rise and Fall are Suffering
Fancheng has become a different person after Liu Yi's reconstruction. Although Liu Bei has not arrived yet, he has ordered his general Xiahou Bo and others to lead troops to Fancheng to pick up Liu Bei who has retreated.
On the bank of the Han River, at first glance, there are all the people who have escaped from the north. They are all kinds of clothes, mixed with naked cars, and occasionally there are ox carts. Some people entered Fancheng with the support of the troops, but Fancheng is a cliff after all, how many people can it accept?
A fleet gradually appeared in people's sight, but these people's eyes were just numb and could not see any hope.
Liu Yi stood at the bow of the boat, faster than expected. He arrived in Fancheng in three days. Looking at the crowds of people, Liu Yi suddenly had the urge to laugh.
It’s not that he is excited, but a little sad. He can’t see the expressions of the people so far away, but just looking at the shape, it’s not difficult to see that these people are not happy.
"Sir, what's wrong?" Liu Sandao stood beside Liu Yi and asked in confusion when he saw that his expression was wrong.
"No." Liu Yi shook his head and said, "I inform the fleet to move closer to Fancheng and order people to raise their flags with the official army guarding the city. I have already made an appointment with Uncle Liu. The people who cannot accommodate Fancheng should follow us!"
In fact, no matter how small Fancheng is, if it is crowded, it is still possible to accommodate it. However, the people in the city will definitely be rejected. Moreover, with more people, where does the food come from? These people bring their families with their families, and they don’t have much supplies, and most of them are homes like pots and pots.
Some things are just through words, and I will never feel the sadness and misery in it. Among so many people, how many are really willing to leave with Liu Bei?
Of course, from Liu Bei's perspective, there is nothing wrong with him. He needs the hearts of the people of Jingzhou. This escape can also be regarded as a political show for the people of Jingzhou and for the scholars of Jingzhou. However, he obviously does not have the ability to protect these people. This time he found himself, perhaps because he felt compassion and hoped that he could recover some of the casualties that should not have.
Xiahou Bo came to Liu Yi's ship, clasped his fists at Liu Yi and said, "I'm down, Xiahou Bo, now the guardian of Fancheng, but Mr. Bo Yuan is in front of him?"
"That's right." Liu Yi jumped off the bow of the boat, clasped his fists at Xiahou Bo and said, "Who is there in the city now? I was entrusted by Kong Ming to help the emperor accept the people."
"Sir, please forgive me. The war ahead is urgent. Everyone is assisting the Lord's Public Force against Cao's army. At present, there is only one general in Fancheng." Xiahou Bo said apologetically.
"How many people are there?" Liu Yi looked at it and saw that there were crowds of people on the coast. He had never learned this specifically, and he could not tell how many people were there for a while.
"From Xinye to here, many people came along the way, with more than 20,000 people. Fancheng City is small, I wonder if you..." Xiahou Bo looked at the vast fleet behind Liu Yi and was also a little surprised. Originally, Liu Bei meant that Liu Yi could share as much as he could, but now the fleet brought by Liu Yi was obviously beyond expectations.
"If the Emperor Uncle doesn't mind, he can pull as much as he can!" Liu Yi nodded. What Mocheng lacks the most now is population. He knows what Liu Bei wants to do with these people, but it is hard to say it out.
"So, thank you Mr. Bo Yuan." Xiahou Bo nodded silently and began to arrange people to help Liu Yi summon the people to board the ship.
Liu Yi brought five hundred soldiers this time, and now he began to extradite the people under Liu Yi's command. After the children and mother ships were filled with the people, they began to turn around.
During this period, there were also noise and even fights. Some people wanted to leave as soon as possible, while others did not trust Liu Yi very much and were unwilling to board the ship. Occasionally, there was a tendency to be intensified by conflicts and quarrels.
Liu Yi frowned and saw that someone had a conflict in front of him. Xiahou Bo, who was beside him, frowned and wanted to take action, but was stopped by Liu Yi and walked forward silently.
"Why? We came here in the name of Emperor Wen, but now we have to leave with someone who is unknown. What is this? What is the Mo family? I have never heard of it!" A burly and strong man dressed in a farmer pushed a soldier away and roared.
There were also many people who were clamoring. Anyway, the Cao army was still in Xinye area and did not go south. These refugees who fled were not very oppressive. At this moment, they were not afraid of the trouble. They didn't get on the boat, but just started clamoring around them. The burly farmer was inspired by the people around them, and his emotions suddenly became even more arrogant, as if he could respond even if he could shout at him.
"Hmm!" The soldiers who were pressing the boat all came out of the Mocheng school grounds. They were all skilled in martial arts and far beyond ordinary people. When they heard this, they glared and took a step forward. The fierce and fierce aura made the crowd around them feel breathing stagnant, and they felt a little afraid.
"In the pre-Qin and Warring States Period, the Mohist school was the two major schools that were ranked alongside Confucianism. It advocated both love and not attack, and calmed down worldly disputes, that is, the big ones do not bully the small ones, the strong ones do not humiliate the weak, the many are not bully the few, the deceitful ones do not deceive the foolish, the noble ones do not be arrogant or humble, the rich ones do not be arrogant or poor." Liu Yi stood up and came to the man, looked at his eyes calmly and said, "This is the Mohist school. You have never heard of it and don't want to board the ship. We will not stop you, but please move the road away and let others board the ship."
"I..." The man was a little stern and weak on the inside. He could understand Liu Yi's words, but he felt very powerful. Moreover, Liu Yi had outstanding temperament and an inexplicable pressure, which made him instinctively afraid. However, in front of everyone, he was unwilling to weaken his aura and forced himself to say, "If I don't let me, what will you do?"
Liu Yi nodded and turned around and said, "Then please let me die."
As he said that, he waved his hand. Liu Sandao, who had been waiting for aside, drew his sword and rushed towards the big man with fierce eyes. Seeing this, the big man dared not continue to stop him. He crawled into the crowd in shame, and Liu Sandao could not catch him for a moment.
Liu Yi climbed again to penetrate and said loudly to the large-scale head in front of him: "I am Liu Yi, the successor of the Mo family, and the lord of Jingling Mo City. Now I am invited by the emperor to pick up the people. If everyone wants, they can follow the boat to Jingling. If they don't want to, Liu will not force it. Just ask not to gather people to cause trouble. At this extraordinary time, if you dare to gather people to cause trouble, you will be killed without mercy!"
The crowds of people who were originally rioting around him became much calmer as Liu Yi's words came out, and the people began to continue boarding the ship.
