Chapter 1453 Countering the enemy general
The Han people used to only eat two meals a day, but from when it changed to three meals, the same was true in the army.
However, during this period, Liang Jun lacked food and changed it back to two meals. The quota was limited, so he could only eat 70% full. Then he stayed in the camp honestly and didn't even dare to do daily training, for fear of being hungry.
Despite this, the soldiers of the cooking camp will still go down the mountain to get water on time, and the meal always needs to be cooked.
After noon, the scout returned to the cave and found Mao Banian and said, "Sir, Cheng Yi has replied. I have asked you to meet you at the hour of You. Li Kan did not reply, and there was no other movement in the military camp. It seems that he did not refuse directly, but was waiting for the opportunity."
Mao Banian said: "Since that's the case, let's meet Chengyi first. This kid is smart and knows that meeting time is scheduled during the day. It seems that he is sincere. As for Li Kan, it is best for him to surrender. If he doesn't surrender, I will not lack one of him. Go and prepare."
If the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers; if the ministers are not secret, he will lose his virginity. Conflict work is particularly important in rebellion. The military camp is strictly controlled. Although Cheng Yi is the chief general of the army, he cannot do anything randomly. He can just find an excuse to go out during the day, but it is not easy to come out at night, and it is eye-catching and suspicious.
The agreed time came soon. Mao Ba Nian hid in the ravine opposite the Liang Army camp, hiding in the grass and waiting patiently.
After waiting for less than two quarters of an hour, a team of Liang soldiers ran down from the mountain. The leader was General Cheng Yi. Mao had seen portraits of all the generals of the Liang army in Ba Nian and recognized this person at a glance. However, he did not go out immediately, but hid in the grass and continued to wait, not knowing what he was waiting for.
Cheng Yi walked along the hillside to the bottom of the ditch, picked up his telescope and looked around, but saw nothing, frowned and shouted, "Commander Mao, I know you are here, so come and see me out of date."
Mao Ba Nian still didn't come out, and waited for another quarter of an hour. Cheng Yi yelled several times, and shook his sleeves and was about to leave the opposite mountain before a beam of light shone. The person who was shaking his face couldn't open his eyes.
Seeing the light, Mao Ba Nian stood up decisively from the grass and smiled and said, "General Cheng, don't rush to leave."
Cheng Yi turned around and saw that the place where he was hiding was only thirty meters away from him. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then said unhappily: "What do you mean by asking me to come but not meeting you?"
Mao Ba Nian pushed aside the grass and walked to Cheng Yi on the snow. He bowed and smiled and said, "General, don't be angry. Isn't this to ensure safety? Whoever wins and loses in the Wei and Liang army has little to do with our brothers, but Mao must not ignore the fate of our brothers. Safety is the first, is the general right?"
Cheng Yi's face was a little bit better, and frowned and said, "Since we meet, let's go straight to the point. Either you convince me or I will kill you. The head of the commander of the Jinyiwei is quite valuable."
"Mao not only admits this, but also is quite proud, just because he is afraid that you will have the life to spend money."
Mao Banian said: "The world is in Wei. No matter how powerful your Xiliang Iron Cavalry is, it is just struggling to death and delaying the time of death. Ma Chao is ambitious to cede land and become king, but what about you, General, are you really willing to be buried with Ma Chao?"
Cheng Yi sneered: "Stop talking about these useless things. Your Majesty of the Great Wei Dynasty would not have sent you to talk to others."
Mao Banian smiled without saying a word, took out a booklet similar to a greeting card from his arms and handed it over.
Cheng Yi took it and opened it and saw a greedy light suddenly emitted in his eyes. This was actually a Dahan Bank. Oh no, it has been changed to Dawei Bank. This was actually a Dawei Bank passbook, with the amount on it as high as one million, or silver coins.
Dawei Bank has developed well in recent years. Bank branches are spread across the Central Plains prefectures and counties. Even Liangzhou has several branches. The passbooks, redemptions and other items they issue are highly recognized by the public and are very convenient to exchange. All the money embezzled in Chengyi in recent years has been deposited in the bank. Not only is it safe, but there is no need to worry that Ma Chaofa Zheng found out, killing two birds with one stone.
Among all the generals of the Liang army, he was not the most capable but the richest. But no matter how rich he was, his family's assets were not one million. Such a huge sum of money was enough for him to have food and clothing in the rest of his life.
What are you trying to do when you fight hard? Isn’t it just for glory and wealth?
Mao Banian was very satisfied with his reaction and smiled: "Your Majesty said that if the general is willing to abandon the secret and turn to the light, he will be granted the title of Marquis of Guannei after the war is over. This is a good thing that many people can't get through their lives. It's not better than walking along the same path with Ma Chao. If a person is not punished for himself, heaven and earth will be destroyed. If the general does not consider himself, will he not consider his descendants? Do you really want your children and grandchildren to live their lives by taking the title of a traitor?"
Cheng Yi was caught in a battle between heaven and man, and a look of struggle appeared on his face. He said for a long time: "Your Majesty really said that?"
The name has changed, and the heart has been shaken.
Mao Banian smiled and said, "The title of Guannei Marquis is hard to find in your life for you and me, but it is a matter of one word to Your Majesty. Do you think that the title of Your Majesty is damaged by your reputation?"
This is the truth. Cao Cao has already won most of the world, so he naturally has to work hard to uphold the rules he set.
Cheng Yi gritted his teeth and said, "Gao Nu can't capture it for a long time. Prime Minister, oh no, Fa Zheng is preparing to evacuate and cross Helan Mountain to retreat to Liangzhou. It was just the day before the main force of the Wei army arrived. He was originally going to evacuate today, but when he heard that His Majesty had injured his leg, the Wei army temporarily stopped and rested, so it was delayed."
Mao Banian smiled and said, "Those who know the times are heroes, and the general will be glad for today's decision in the future."
Cheng Yi put away his passbook and bowed and said, "I hope the commander will take care of you in the future."
The Jinyiwei is an existence that no one wants to offend the Great Wei Dynasty. He would dare not offend him even more if he surrendered and rebellious generals like him.
Mao Banian smiled and said, "You are polite, General, I will be a minister in the same palace in the future. You and my brothers should support each other."
Cheng Yi quickly smiled and said, "It's the extreme, it's the extreme."
The two discussed some details of cooperation and then turned around and left.
Mao Ba Nian continued to stay where he was waiting. After waiting for a long time, his subordinates who were hiding on other hills to observe the movements of the Liang army before returning. He sent someone back to report the situation to Cao Cao, but he continued to stay and wait.
Cheng Yi surrendered, and Li Kan had not made any movement yet. If he could instigate this person, the next battle would be easier. If he could not, he would force him to rebel. Will the person targeted by the Jinyiwei live a better life?
This time he made a mistake. Li Kan waited for three consecutive days without any movement. Mao Ba Nian had to give up. After two days of sending messenger returned and found Mao Ba Nian and said, "Sir, your Majesty has prepared it, we can act."
Mao Banian said excitedly: "It's great, go and meet them."
He was responsible for instigating enemy generals and disrupting the morale of the enemy army. Naturally, he could not bring only a few people here. He left his hiding place and climbed over a mountain, found another cave. When he got in, he saw that there were hundreds of soldiers, several large boxes and six hot air balloons hidden in the cave. When he opened the box, he saw that it contained printed flyers, and several generators and speakers that had been reduced several times.
Mao Banian smiled with satisfaction: "Action."
The soldiers carried everything out of the cave and brought six hot air balloons onto them.
