Chapter 230 Wei Geng stubbornly resists

Seeing that he was hesitant, Zheng Dao said sternly: "If you write it honestly, you can avoid death. If you insist on hiding it and refuse to cooperate, do you believe it or not, can you correct the Dharma now?"

Although Wei Teng was a little talent, he was just a little talent after all. When this sudden change occurred, he had no choice but to say to his uncle Wei Geng in his heart: "I'm sorry, in order to save his life, I have to sell you first!" The little chicken nodded repeatedly like a pecking rice, expressing his willingness to cooperate. He picked up the paper and pen, just like Yuan Ji, and he didn't bother to change the ground and started writing.

Gao Liang smiled and said, "This pair of ministers really joins the contract."

After he finished writing, signed the autograph and pressed the handprint, Zheng Dao packed it up and handed it to Liu Bei. Liu Bei took it and looked at it. Wei Teng wrote a lot, with four or five pages full of them. Some of them were known to Liu Bei, and some were not known to Liu Bei.

He nodded with satisfaction and said in a gentle voice: "The prefectures and counties are polite and kind, and do not want to get a prison. I want you to write these things not to cure your sins, nor to cure your uncle's sin. After the former Chang Pingchang Yuan Ji confessed his guilt, he returned the seal and resigned himself. The so-called "No one can do without mistakes? If you and your uncle can change their mistakes like him, wouldn't it be great to change their minds and reform themselves?"

"County... County Lord, no, did the former Guangpingchang not be arrested and executed by Gongcao?"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "What power do I have to execute people? The people I killed were all because they resisted stubbornly and were willing to surrender and attempted to fight against the national law. Therefore, I had no choice but to kill them. Yuan Ji, a former general, knew that he could correct his mistakes, and he was very good at accepting his crimes. He voluntarily returned the seal and was willing to resign from his post and return home. What reason would I do to kill him?"

Wei Teng trembled and took off the seal from his waist, held it high to his head, knelt on the ground, walked a few steps away from Liu Bei's seat, leaned down and said, "The villain is also willing to return the seal and ribbon, resign and return home."

"No, no hurry. Let's go and meet your uncle first."

Liu Bei stood up long, walked around him, and walked out of the hall. Qian Zhao and others followed closely. Wei Teng responded a little slow in response to this big change. He stayed in the hall for a while before he came to his senses. He quickly got up and trotted to follow, thinking: "Want to see my uncle?" In order to save his life, he wrote a lot of Wei Geng's illegal rituals. At this moment, he was temporarily worried about his life, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful and frightened, afraid that Wei Geng would know about this. Wei Geng is definitely not a magnanimous person.

Liu Bei left the county yamen, probably because he heard from the soldiers that the people outside the yamen had already known about Yuan Ji's resignation and cheered a lot. Hundreds and thousands of people knelt down on the ground, shouting: "Divine Liao Tigers, famous in the northern border, eliminate harm for the people, and work hard for the hardships of the masters!" There were old and young, men and women, and many people were filled with tears in their eyes with excitement.

Outside the car, the people cheered endlessly. Liu Bei listened with his ears, listening to their heartfelt gratitude and cheers, listening to the women, the old man cried with joy, listening to the children's running footsteps and singing happily, comparing the lifelessness in the county when he came to the last time to visit the secret, for a moment, his heart was ups and downs and he sighed.

"What's wrong?" asked Gao Liang.

"I just drove away a corrupt official. It was what I should do. The people were so grateful and happy. This trip came to the plain..."

"how?"

"Even if I die here, it's worth it!"

Then he came outside Wei Geng's house, and the door of the Wei family was closed.

The scouts climbed onto the tree and looked inward, and saw that the huge courtyard was full of guards holding swords and crossbows. However, Wei Geng had already received the news and summoned people to resist stubbornly.

Liu Bei got off the horse and heard the situation in the courtyard. He said to Gao Liang: "Mr. Gao, it seems that you guessed it right. There are really many outlaws. Han Lu is one, and the Wei family is another. Relying on some people and power, they dare to fight against the national law."

He turned around and asked Gao Liang: "What should I do when the situation is like this?"

Gao Liang laughed and called Wei Teng over and said, "You bring a message to your uncle, and said, "If he knows the matter, he will return the seal and ribbon like Yuan Ji, and resign, and he will still have his life. If he doesn't know the matter... tell him again, Han Lu will not want to conquer the crime and have been eliminated."

Then Wei Teng walked towards the gate of the Wei family courtyard, and Zheng Dao said, "Kongcao, Wei Teng will probably not return after he goes... Instead of letting him into the courtyard, why not stay hostage?"

"He is just Wei Geng's nephew, not a parent-child, so what's the point of leaving it? Why not send him to pass on a message?" Liu Bei stood under the tree beside the car with his hands behind his back, watching Wei Teng knock on the door of the house, and then watched him squeeze in through the crack of the door, and then closed the door. With a glance, he vaguely saw that there were indeed many strong men holding soldiers and bows in the house.

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "It's only my fault that I came to Guangping last time. I only visited Wei Geng's domineering arrogance, but not his timidity and cowardice."

Wei Geng gathered people to resist, which was actually the essential manifestation of timidity and cowardice under the surface of domineering and arrogant people. I think that he must have known that his in-laws Han Lu was killed, and he did this because he was afraid of being executed. But he didn't think about it. No matter what, he was an iron official of 600 stones. How could he be the same as Han Lu? Han Lu was just a rural tyrant, and he would be killed if he killed him. He was a court minister with a lower-level doctor. How could Liu Bei kill him for no reason?

After Liu Bei's original intention, he would never want to meet Wei Geng without any exception.

His original plan was: to follow the plan of the lord Liu He and use Zhang Chi to deal with Yuan Ji. Yuan Ji is a foreigner, like a tree without roots and no plans, so he can deal with him. After he gets rid of him, he will use the "power of great victory" and use the strategy of "principle of etiquette and then army" to deal with Wei Geng, a local tyrant. If "ritual" is useful, it would be fine if Wei Geng can resign. If "ritual" is useless, if he really can't tell him, there is no way, and then "army" will be used to force him. - If this is not the case, he will attack the Wei family after entering the city, and will he still give him time to resist stubbornly?

But he didn't expect that Wei Geng was so timid! Or maybe Liu Bei didn't expect him, or maybe the Liao army would be so terrifying in Wei Teng's eyes! He was like a frightened bird.

Zheng Dao frowned and asked, "What should I do now?"

Liu Bei had already decided on two plans, and it was too soft, so he was hard. He gave an order in an orderly manner: "Evacuate the people around him and drive the people watching from afar out of the house.... He ordered all infantry soldiers to dismount and prepare for the battle. He divided four teams to surround the Wei family! The remaining teams gathered and stood by. Then he went to find the inner chief of the book and ordered them to cooperate with the team of the team in the back to find more firewood, dead branches and other flammable things, and then found a few big trees to be used to hit the door of the house!"

Zheng Daofu asked, "Kongcao, are you planning to attack the Wei family?"

Wei Geng was the Iron Chief of the Iron King of 600 Stones, and the imperial court ordered him to be a minister far from comparable to Handu. This attack on the Wei family was completely different from the killing of Handu.

Liu Bei did not answer him positively, but just smiled and said, "Wei Geng was so arrogant and brave. Although he gathered to resist stubbornly, in my opinion, he was a native chicken and a tile dog!"

The captain of the Liao army team received the order and divided a few people to drive the people around the distance out of the house and out of the house, and took out the mounts of the people, finding a place to look forward to it. The remaining eighty people first evacuated the households inside and out, and then divided two parts, one lined behind Liu Bei, and the other part each selected places outside the house that was easy to attack outside the house. Those who were proficient in close combat were in front of them, and those who were good at using spears and halberds, carrying bows and crossbows either climbed onto trees or climbed onto the roof of the house next door, and looked down at the Wei house.
