The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 26 Huangfu Song
Chapter 26：皇甫嵩
The news that the scouts came to report shocked everyone in the big tent, and half of the Jingxing and Taihang Baxing were occupied by the bandits of Taihang Mountain.

The more important Jingxing does not need to be occupied by several other passes. Jingxing connects Ji and the two states, and plays the role of a transportation hub, not only for defense.

Moreover, since Jingxing left the border, there is an endless North China Plain, and there is no danger to defend. The Taihang Mountain bandit Kou Huangfu Song has also heard of it. Due to the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans, the imperial court is really powerless to control these bandits hidden in the mountains and forests.

These bandits took advantage of the fact that the Yellow Turban Uprising was causing chaos in the world, and they also took the opportunity to gather in the mountains and forests in the Taihang Mountains.

If you want to clean up the thieves in the Taihang Mountains, due to the steep terrain of the Taihang Mountains, it will even take more time and money and military strength than to pacify the Yellow Turbans.

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has almost subsided now, the imperial court has also spent a lot of money, grain and military power.

The thieves in the Taihang Mountains are so happy that they are only in the Taihang Mountains, and they cannot have any impact on their lives in Luoyang.

Just after the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled, Taihang Mountain was once again roiled by bandits. This year was a very eventful year. Huangfu Song couldn't believe that Jingxing could fall.

You must know that there is a whole army of Han troops stationed in Jingxing, with complete armament and all kinds of equipment to defend the city. Even if there are thousands of thieves with poor equipment, it is impossible to break through. What's more, there are many county soldiers in the surrounding towns, who can go to support .

"Apart from the news of the fall of Jingxing, there is no other news? Do you know which band of thieves occupied Jingxing?"

Hearing Huangfu Song's question, the scout took a breath and said, "I only know that Jingxing was lost in the early morning yesterday, and now the black flags are planted all over the wall, and the door is closed, so we can't check the inside information."

Huangfu Song frowned, took out the command flag from the case and said to Yan Zhong: "Enzhi, you hold the command flag and mobilize a county soldier to go to Jingxing to investigate and open the way for the army."

"promise!"

Yan Zhong sang a promise, stepped forward to take Huangfu Song's command flag, and was about to go out, when Xiao Huangmen Liangsheng in the tent rolled his eyes, but suddenly opened his mouth and said:
"There are a few thieves, but it's not worth mobilizing the banned army of the five schools to clean up. General Huangfu's hard work should return the capital as soon as possible. It is better to hand it over to General Yan to recover Jingxing. There are more than a thousand soldiers in the surrounding county.

Huangfu Song's heart suddenly jumped, the emperor was so impatient to want him to return to Beijing, he was afraid that he would be jealous.

Liang Sheng laughed and said: "General Yan has been in battle for a long time, and it is still not easy to clean up a group of little thieves. General Huangfu has flattened the yellow turban, and his generals and soldiers must not be neglected."

Seeing the angel Liang Sheng asking him to return the capital again and again, Huangfu Song could only helplessly wave his hand to Yan Zhong, motioning him to move his troops and horses, and said to Xiao Huangmen Liangsheng: "After the rest, I can return the capital. "

Liang Sheng saw that Huangfu Song did not insist on seeing it, and his face became more smiling, and after a few polite words, he led the guards out of Huangfu Song's tent.

After seeing Liang Sheng go out, Huangfu Song only felt a little powerless and sat back in front of the desk again tremblingly.The chief officer Liang Yan was still reading the documents, and Huangfu Song couldn't help but ask, "Shu Ying, do you think Yan Enzhi's words today are somewhat credible."

Hearing Huangfu Song's question, Liang Yan froze for a while, then slowly put down the document in his hand, put his body to face Huangfu Song, made a series to Huangfu Song, and said slowly: "The destiny is still in the Han Dynasty."

However, Liang Yan then changed his words and continued: "But the general is already in a dangerous place as Yan Enzhi said at this time, although he will not kill like the king of Qi, Han Xin, but in the future he will only be a rich man. ."

Huangfu Song held up the seal of the Jizhou Mu, turned his head to look north, and said with a wry smile: "It is advisable to hang the head of the barbarian mansion on Gao Street to show that thousands of miles away, those who violate the strong Han will be punished even if they are far away!"

Liang Yan sat quietly and watched Huangfu Song muttering word by word, although the old man in front of him had already grayed his hair, but in a trance, Liang Yan seemed to see the high-spirited young general again.

There was silence again in the tent, as always.

When Yan Zhong walked out of the tent, he was also shocked and covered in cold sweat. If Liang Sheng heard the slightest bit, he would not only be eaten with no bones left, but also implicate his clansmen. This is a crime of rebellion!
However, when Liang Sheng left, he looked fine, and had a few laughs with him. Yan Zhong loosened his shirt and looked at the coming and going sergeants in front of him, and calmed down.

Although he was safe for a while, Huangfu Song's vague words still made Yan Zhong uneasy. At this time, he took over another mess. Even if he wanted to take the opportunity to escape, it was not the right time, so he could only bite the bullet and check Jingxing first.

It's just that when Yan Zhong held the command flag and went to mobilize the troops and horses, the sergeants below showed displeased expressions, and even whispered comments came from time to time, but even so, the well-trained Han troops were in the generals. Under the sound of shouting, they quickly assembled.

Yan Zhong frowned and looked at the soldiers in front of him. He hurriedly called them together when he was celebrating the victory. It was normal to have some resentment.

In the past, Yan Zhongding was supposed to boost his morale, but now Yan Zhong was very worried in his heart, so he just briefed a few military commanders about the military order, and then led his own soldiers to leave first.

The door of the Han army camp was full of people, and the camp door slowly opened. Yan Zhong and a group of county soldiers slowly left the Han army camp in Xia Quyang.

Huangfu Song and Liang Yan stood on the wall of the village to bid farewell to Yan Zhong, and all the soldiers passing by along the way cheered to Huangfu Song with their weapons high.

"It's over at last." Huangfu Song tightened his cloak, looking a little absent-minded at the distant Han army.

"Yeah, it's finally over." Liang Yan looked at Huangfu Song who was leaning against the wall, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.

"Let's go home." Huangfu Song said as if all his strength had been drained in an instant, from the mighty Han army general in front of the battle to a twilight old man.

The howling north wind is blowing, and the land of the Central Plains is getting colder and colder. Fortunately, it is finally over. Whether it is the Yellow Turban Rebellion or the famine, it is finally over.

The land around Guangzong and Xiaquyang will surely be fertile for thousands of miles in the near future.

I got out of my car and went to her husband.From the Son of Heaven, it is said that I am here.Summoning his servant, it is called carrying.The king's affairs are so difficult that they are thorny.

The people's song said: The world is in chaos and the city is ruined. The mother does not protect the child and the wife loses her husband.

When the army is all set, the generals are put away; the cooks are all cooked, and the generals are eaten; the army does not raise fire, and the generals do not raise them either.
