It wasn't long. All the families were here.
As everyone sat down, Qu Lin looked at the family members, pointed to Huo Jun, who was sitting at the top on the left, and said, "ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to a young hero named Qian Tong."
Huo Jun stood up, bowed his hands to all the people present, and said, "I've seen you."
In a word, neither humble nor overbearing.
Huo Jun sat down again, but he was still in no hurry to speak.
Qu Lin continued: "I invited you here to discuss how to resist Liu Xiu."
WOW!
As soon as the words came out, there was a lot of discussion in the hall.
The expressions on the faces of the aristocratic families were dignified, even reluctant.
The reason is very simple. Once we want to resist Liu Xiu's army, we have to pay for it. Under such circumstances, all the families had to pay, so no one was willing to resist Liu Xiu's army.
After throwing out the theme, Qu Lin said: "this matter is led by my husband, but it is Mr. Qian's plan. Now, let's ask Mr. Qian to elaborate on resisting Liu Xiu. "
Qu Lin knows about resisting Liu Xiu, but he is too lazy to say so.
Anyway, there is Qiantong.
Huo Jun stood up, his face to all of you, the face is very calm, not impatient way: "just Qu said resist Liu Xiu things, I see you face expression is very dignified, even a reluctant look."
"I feel and understand this."
"The reason is very simple. No one wants to fight. This war will kill people. Fighting and rescuing will affect business."
"But now the situation is that people are taking me as fish. Liu Xiu has come to kill us with a knife. We are fish on the chopping board. If we don't resist, we will become Liu Xiu's mouthpiece."
Huo Jun talked with confidence and calmness, and said: "you are all people with vision and insight. You must know Liu Xiu. Although he is Liu Biao's son, he comes from a big family. "
"However, this man is very strict with his family, but he promotes poor families everywhere."
"What Liu Xiu did was to regard his aristocratic family as a monster, and his humble family as his own son."
"Once Liu Xiu broke quren County, he would fight against the aristocratic family in order to kill people and make them dare not resist. Some of you here will become the ghosts of Liu Xiu. "
There is a little threat in Huo Jun's words.
The principal of an aristocratic family is humanity: "it's true that Liu Xiu suppressed the aristocratic family, but if I take the initiative to surrender and be loyal, he won't kill us."
This remark has been accepted by countless people.
Many of the leaders of the aristocratic families spoke one after another and felt that surrender was also a good plan.
Huo Jun laughs, but the laughter is full of irony.
This action immediately attracted countless people to question Huo Jun one by one. But Huo Jun's face remained unchanged, and he said faintly: "you are now in charge of your own families. If you want the wind to get the wind and the rain to get the rain, are you really willing to be loyal to Liu Xiu
"If you don't like it, it's possible for Liu Xiu to demolish the bridge after he has brought you down."
"What's more, Huang County Magistrate failed to resist Liu Xiu in the end. It's hard to guarantee that he won't jump over the wall in a hurry."
Huo Jun looked at the family leader who had just spoken and said, "if Liu Xiu is ready to welcome the aristocratic family, we can surrender naturally. But Liu Xiu is very targeted at the aristocratic family, so in the current situation, even if Huang Quan surrenders, we can't surrender. "
A simple remark won the approval of many people.
One face after another, already moved.
Qu Lin saw in his eyes that Huo Jun had a good eloquence. He seized the opportunity and said in a loud voice: "no matter what you decide, I have decided to fight Liu Xiu to the end. Now the reinforcements are on their way. As long as they hold down Liu Xiu's army, we can only win. "
With Qu Lin's words, it's like putting a sea god needle in everyone's heart.
Many family leaders have no other thoughts.
Seeing this, Huo Jun said again, "I admire Qu Laogao. But people have their own aspirations, and we can't force them. So now, here's a proposal. Those who are willing to resist Liu Xiu will stay in the hall now. Those who are not willing to resist Liu Xiu can leave now. I would rather have differences now than have internal strife when I was fighting against Liu Xiu. "
Qu Lin nodded and said: "Mr. Qian Tong's words are very reasonable. If you want to quit, please come out now. If it's to block my way when I'm fighting against Liu Xiu, I'll never let it go. "
The tone is relaxed, but it is murderous.
Everyone in the hall sat upright and did not leave.
All of you are human spirits. If you really leave now, I'm afraid you will be charged with colluding with Liu Xiu. This is absolutely impossible. You'd rather stay than leave.
Huo Jun saw that everyone would not leave, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "since you do not leave, it proves that everyone is willing to resist. So now, let's discuss how many soldiers and food each family will provide. The grain and private soldiers that are to be taken out must be led by someone, but now we have to make sure that we admit defeat and that we have food. "Qu Lin took the lead and took the lead in saying: "the Qu family will send out 2000 private soldiers and 2000 stone grains."
Two thousand private soldiers, two thousand stone grain.
For a county like quren County, two thousand people and two thousand stone grains are already a considerable amount. Huo Jun is quite surprised, did not expect that Qu Lin is so pay, this courage is really extraordinary.
"Mr. Qian, our Shen family has 800 private soldiers and 600 stone grain."
"Our Yang family sent out 1000 private soldiers and 800 stone grain."
"My Zhang family sent out 600 private soldiers and 700 stone grain."
……
One after another, the family members expressed their views, all of which were more or less grain and soldiers. However, among all the people, the Qu family is still the leader, and the Qu family has the most private soldiers and food.
Huo Jun wrote down all of them. He counted them down and said, "I counted them down. The total number of people who admitted defeat was 15000, and the total amount of grain was 11800 stones. With this batch of food and soldiers, I believe it will be enough to delay the arrival of reinforcements. Even once reinforcements arrive, we can even counterattack. "
All the families nodded their heads.
Liu Xiu's military strength is 30000, while the major families have 15000, which accounts for half of Liu Xiu's military strength. In addition, the soldiers of Huangxian county and the coming reinforcements have surpassed Liu Xiu's strength. Besides, they are resisting, not attacking.
Huo Jun added: "the food and soldiers are all together, so now we have to consider the people who manage the food and lead the soldiers. It's just that these two people not only need to reassure you, but also need to negotiate with Huang Xianling. They are not competent. So I volunteered to be responsible for the distribution of grain. "
As soon as these words come out, all of you look at me, and I look at you with distrust in your eyes.
Every family has to provide food. If the person in charge is one of them, the others will not be at ease.
Under such circumstances, Huo Jun is the most suitable person.
Qu Lin wanted to understand the problem and took the lead in saying, "I agree with Mr. Qian Tong in managing grain. What's your opinion?"
"No problem!"
"Mr. Qian is in charge of the management of grain, which is the most appropriate arrangement."
"According to Mr. Qian's arrangement."
They all answered in unison, but they didn't refute Qu Lin's arrangement. They also agreed to Huo Jun's voluntary recommendation.
Huo Jun nodded and said, "thank you for your kindness, but I am not respectful. But there's another thing, and that's the leader of the army. I'd like to suggest that Mr. Qu arrange one person to lead the team. "
With a smile in his mouth, Qu Lin said: "this boy is interesting enough."
Qu Lin is naturally willing to make such an arrangement.
They all agreed to the Qu family.
Huo Jun guides the things to go on. In less than half an hour, he arranges all the things, and then the people disperse. Huo Jun goes back to the county government to visit huangquan, tells him the news, and asks huangquan to prepare for resistance, and then goes to the place where the grain will be stored.
