Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and pure!

In the second year of Jian'an, it was night on the second day of November.

The north wind was howling, and it seemed to be colder than the previous few days.

The winter night sky is gloomy, and it seems that heavy snow is about to fall.

In Chaoge City, Jizhou General Jiang Qi looked at the oppressive night and felt inexplicably restless.

Jiang Qi was calm and resourceful, and held a high position in Yuan Shao's army, even slightly higher than Zhang He and Gao Lan among the Four Court Pillars of Hebei.

The reason why he is not as well-known as Zhang He Gao Lan is because Jiang Qi is not as good at martial arts as the two of them. He is more handsome but less brave.

Also with high qualifications is Chunyu Qiong.

Chunyu Qiong was even more senior than Jiang Qi. He, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others were among the eight captains of Xiyuan.

Later, he joined Yuan Shao and was highly regarded. He was appointed as the governor by Yuan Shao and was in charge of one-third of Jizhou's troops!

This time Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and his son faced off in Suanzao Yangwu, so he ordered Chunyu Qiong to be the governor, dedicated to guarding grain and grass in Chaoge.

And at the suggestion of Ju Shou and others, the calm and resourceful Jiang Qi was appointed as Chun Yuqiong's deputy general to prevent Cao Cao, Cao Ang and his son from coming to attack with their scheming plans.

In addition to Jiang Qi, there are also Jizhou brave general Han Meng, Zhao Rui, Lu Weihuang, Sui Yuanjin and other generals, all of whom are stationed in Chaoge.

Among them, Han Meng is the fifth fierce general in Jizhou, second only to Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Lan, the four pillars of Hebei.

To be precise, Han Meng, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others are collectively called the Four Courts and One Pillar. The four in front are the Four Courts, and Han Meng is that pillar!

Just the three of them, Chun Yuqiong, Jiang Qi, and Han Meng, can be called a powerful lineup, not to mention that a few days ago, the total number of troops stationed in Chaoge was 50,000!

Even if the lord Yuan Shao ordered most of the defenders to be transferred out two days ago, there are still 15,000 troops stationed inside and outside Chaoge!

Among them, 10,000 people were stationed in the city as the main force, and 14,500 people were led by Han Meng and were stationed outside the city as patrols.

Although most of the troops were mobilized, these fifteen thousand people, coupled with Chaoge's strong city, were enough to protect the food and grass in the city.

Even if an army of 100,000 people comes to attack, they can still withstand it for several days with a strong city.

In a few days, it would be enough for the main force of Yuan's army, a hundred miles away on the south bank, to come to the rescue.

It can even arrive in just over a day at the earliest.

With such protection, it stands to reason that there should be nothing to worry about.

But Jiang Qi felt inexplicably uneasy, so even though it was dark, Jiang Qi did not rest in the camp, but walked to the top of the city to inspect.

Seeing that many of the soldiers on night duty at the city wall were slacking off and even dozing off, Jiang Qi couldn't help but look sullen and ordered his soldiers to catch a few sleeping in the corners of the city wall and beat them with thirty military sticks as a warning. emulate

"There are three million stones of food and grass stored in the city, which can be used by my army for half a year!

How dare you take it lightly when it comes to the life and death of the decisive battle with Cao Jun!

For the sake of waiting for the first offender, I will give you thirty military sticks first.

If you let me see you cheating and cheating again, I will definitely kill you!"

After beating thirty soldiers with batons, Jiang Qi looked at the soldiers on night duty and said majestically.

Most of the soldiers shrank their necks when they heard this, and did not even dare to say a word.

There was also an unconvinced one who was stubborn. Neck said:"Both Governor Chunyu and General Han Meng were not so careful and drank in the city to keep warm.

I was waiting to stand at the top of the city on such a cold day, with the wind and frost blowing, and not even a mouthful of hot soup.

The general only punishes us, which is really dissatisfying!

Jiang Qi's eyes suddenly jumped when he heard this:"Is what you said true?"

Do you know what it is to lie and slander the general?"

The soldier who was beaten was really convinced, and he still said with a pinched neck:"Everything the villain said is true, I am willing to guarantee it with my head!

Governor Chunyu, General Han Meng and others spent the past two days cooking wine and barbecue at the official office in the city. How happy they were!

Because I know that General you are a serious person and I am wary of you preaching, so I deliberately kept it from you!

All the soldiers like us know it, but you, the general, don’t know it!"

After Jiang Qi heard what this soldier said, his face suddenly darkened, and he became more and more angry, but it was not directed at this upright soldier, but at Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng!

"In the face of a powerful enemy, as a general and general, he ignored important matters, left his post without permission, and gathered people to drink!

How hateful!"

Jiang Qi snorted and clenched his fists.

He couldn't help but be angry. Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng gathered together to drink for several days in a row. Han Meng didn't even stay in the patrol camp outside the city. It was obvious that he was too underestimated and unprepared for the enemy.!

The important matter of military aircraft is treated as a child's play!

The patrol camp outside the city was originally responsible for patrolling the surroundings of Chaoge City. It was to detect the enemy and serve as a wing and guard for the defenders in the city!

It can be said to be a place for storing grain. The first line of defense.

As a result, Han Meng, who was the general of the front camp, left the military tent and went into the city to drink with Chunyu Qiong!

At this time, if an enemy suddenly attacked and the patrol camp outside the city was leaderless, how could it be possible? Wouldn't it be easily defeated?

Without the early warning of the patrol camp, if the defenders in the city were unprepared, wouldn't it be possible for the enemy troops to rush into the city in one fell swoop?

Not to mention the actions of the two men, it also gave the soldiers under their command, It had a very bad impact.

The generals and generals left their posts without permission and hid in the warm government buildings in the city, cooking wine and barbecue.

The soldiers on night duty were blowing the wind and drinking frost at the top of the city and outside the city. How could they not be cold and hungry? Do you have complaints in your heart, but want to learn from others?

The soldiers' thinking is very simple, that is, the generals are like this, and we and other soldiers are just for a mouthful of military rations. Why do we work so hard and stand guard in the cold?

We might as well follow suit. Lazy!

The military discipline and defense of the entire army have been ruined and lazy!

Thinking of this, Jiang Qi did not blame those lazy soldiers any more. He just sighed and said:"Pass my military order to the Huotou Army." A few buckets of hot soup were boiled and sent to the city to keep the soldiers warm.

Those who have received military sticks should be sent back to rest. The rest of them should cheer up for me after drinking the soup and do a good night's work!

Otherwise, if something goes wrong with the food and fodder, neither you nor my head can be saved in front of the lord!

Don't be dissatisfied. Since I have punished you, I will not ignore the general's faults!

I will go to the city to find the two generals to question you!"

Jiang Qi is still very popular among the soldiers in the army. With his kindness and power, and his statement that he would punish Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng, even the few soldiers who were beaten were not unconvinced, so they tried their best to punish Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Jiang Qi, with anger, went to Chunyu Qionghan to question him.

In the center of the city, in a courtyard, a charcoal fire was burning, a felt tent was hung, and it was as warm as spring.

This is Chaoge City. The official office was originally the office of the county magistrate here, but because Chunyu Qiong was a big official, it was temporarily occupied as the headquarters of the Chinese army. Chunyu Qiong, Han Meng, Sui Yuanjin and other generals burned charcoal fire in the central military office. The meat was boiled with wine, and the wine was mixed with each other. It was delicious. Although it was not like Chunyu Qiong in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, who was addicted to alcohol and could hardly be sober, it still violated the army's prohibition on alcohol.

Jiang Qi came outside the official office. At that time, I smelled the smell of alcohol and meat coming from the courtyard from a distance, and my expression suddenly became even colder.

"The general is here late at night, please allow me to go to Tongbing!"

Outside the official office, Chun Yuqiong's soldiers saw Jiang Qi coming. Their eyelids jumped. They remembered the instructions of their leader, General Chun Yuqiong, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

Jiang Qi saw through the soldier's thoughts at a glance and gave a cold shout. Said:"Go away! I have something important to see the governor!"

As he said that, he pushed the soldier away.

The soldier wanted to stop him, but Jiang Qi had already drawn his sword and placed it on his neck:"Anyone who blocks me will die!

Anyone who dares to stop me will delay the military situation!"

Jiang Qi's roar immediately frightened the soldiers and they did not dare to stop him.

So Jiang Qi drove straight in and broke into the lobby. When he opened the felt tent, there was a burst of hot air carrying the smell of meat and wine. They rushed towards me.

I saw the general Chun Yuqiong, Han Meng, Sui Yuanjin and other generals, changing cups and cups. Everyone's face was full of drunkenness.

"The governor and the generals are so happy!"

When Jiang Qi saw this scene, he suddenly became angry and snorted coldly.

With the arrival of Jiang Qi and the influx of a cold wind that opened the felt tent, Chunyu Qiong, Han Meng and others were also blown by the cold wind. After a heated exchange with Jiang Qi, they dispelled some of their drunkenness and regained some sobriety.

Sui Yuanjin and others showed a sense of fear, obviously a little afraid of the selfless

Jiang Qi. After all, their official titles were not as high as Jiang Qi's.

But Chunyu Qiong actually I was also a little trembling in my heart. Although Jiang Qi was his lieutenant, Chunyu Qiong was also quite afraid of Jiang Qi's seriousness.

Therefore, they only gathered people to drink in the past few days secretly, hiding it from Jiang Qi.

He even gave it to his own soldiers. He ordered that if Jiang Qi came to see him, he would stop him first and then report it, giving Chun Yuqiong time to destroy the evidence.

But unexpectedly, the soldiers failed to stop Jiang Qi.

From the look on Jiang Qi's face, it was clear that he had also learned the news. Come to Xingshi to investigate the crime!

Seeing that the deeds have been ruined, Chunyu Qiong opened the wine stall and laughed and said:"General Jiang Qi is here, please take a seat!"

It's windy and frosty tonight, the sky is gloomy, and it looks like it's going to snow. I'm going to finish my military duties, so I'll eat and drink to warm myself up."

Obviously, Chunyu Qiong wanted to get the upper hand and dragged Jiang Qi into the water together.

In this way, no one would care about them. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

But Jiang Qi did not give any Chunyu Qiong was so proud that he hated iron and said,"Why should the governor hide it from me?

I already know everything!

The governor and the generals are charged with the important task of protecting food and grass, why are they so confused!

The lord is fighting and confronting Cao's army on the front line, but the governor is here drinking and enjoying himself!

He even took Han Meng, the general of the patrol camp outside the city, to leave his post without permission!

If Cao's army is attacked by a strange force, wouldn't it be dangerous if there are no generals in the camp outside the city?

If Cao Jun takes advantage of the situation and rushes into the city, the governor and generals will be drunk. How can they defend themselves against the enemy?"

Jiang Qi's scolding did not give any face, and Chunyu Qiong's expression also dropped:"Jiang Qi! Are you the governor or am I the governor?

It's such a cold weather, why don't we just wait for the generals to have a glass of wine to warm themselves up?

Don't rely on the Lord's trust in you to point fingers at us!

In terms of trustworthiness and seniority, when my lord and I were both captains of the Eighth School of Xiyuan, you, Jiang Qi, didn’t know where you were!"

Chun Yuqiong's scolding made Han Meng, Sui Yuanjin and other generals feel happy and a little embarrassed for a while.

Although Chunyu Qiong was happy to scold Jiang Qi, it was because Chunyu Qiong's status was higher than Jiang Qi.

And Han Meng, Sui Yuanjin and others , but under Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi may have no choice but to stop Chunyu Qiong, but it is easy to deal with them using military law.[]

So Sui Yuanjin hurriedly advised:"Captain, don't be angry. General Jiang Qi also has good intentions.

It's just that he is a little too cautious."

After making a good deal to Jiang Qi, Sui Yuanjin said to Jiang Qi:"The general also said that my lord's army We are fighting and confronting Cao Jun on the front line, and the Lord has more troops than Cao Jun. How can Cao Jun have extra troops to act as surprise troops?

What's more, even if Cao Jun has extra troops to harass our rear, they should go to the hinterland of Jizhou around Liyang and Yecheng. Why would you come to this little Chaoge?

After all, Chaoge is a place where grain is stored. Only our army knows it, and it is a secret.

How could Cao Jun know?"

After Sui Yuanjin explained some truth, Han Meng also took advantage of the situation and said:"General Sui is right, General Jiang Qi, it is a good thing to be cautious, but you should not be too cautious. Don't say that Cao Jun is unlikely to come. Even if Cao Jun comes, my subordinates outside the city will be able to spot Cao Jun and warn the city.

General. Keep your heart in your stomach!"

Jiang Qi saw that these people were so stubborn and still making excuses, and he became even more angry. Just when he was about to have an attack, Chunyu Qiong waved his hand impatiently:"Stop talking, Jiang If General Qi is willing to stay, then let's drink and eat meat together.

If not, I will help you to patrol the night.

I don't believe it. The main force of the army is behind Chaoge City, and it has always been kept secret.

Then even if Cao Jun has Tongtian With such ability, how can we bypass the army and discover the place where Chaoge stores food?

It is even more impossible to attack Chaoge!" Just as Chun Yuqiong finished speaking, a soldier suddenly came to report:"Captain, the city is in trouble!

Suddenly, there was a fire at the outer patrol camp, and there were shouts of killing!

It seems that Cao Jun is coming to kill!"

This report immediately made Chunyu Qiong's face freeze, and Jiang Qi's face suddenly darkened. Go down……
