Han Dao world

Chapter 846

If the name is not right, the words are not right.

Although the vast majority of people followed Yuan Shao and fought against the imperial court for their own interests, no one would directly admit this.They will find all kinds of reasons for themselves.

For example, as a student and former official, he should serve as the teacher and former master.

For example, as a scholar-bureaucrat, he should oppose the tyranny of power and sacrifice his life for righteousness.

With these high-sounding reasons, they can be confident and righteous, and then gather together to fight against the court, hoping to get a share of the tide of dynasty change.

Now that Yuan Shao has been captured, the change of dynasty has come to naught, and there is only one reason to persevere.

justice.

This dynasty has supported scholars for a hundred years, and scholar-officials competed to encourage themselves with integrity.For the sake of justice, even if it is against the emperor, even if it is against the law, they can have a clear conscience.

Li Ying and Fan Pang can die generously for justice.

They can also fight against the imperial court for justice, even if Yuan Shao pretends to be an imperial edict, and everyone knows his disobedience.

Yuan Shao can be captured or even die, but it doesn't affect them to follow Yuan Shao, and even continue to fight in the name of revenge for Yuan Shao.

But when Yuan Shao came to plead guilty, admitting that what he had done before was all wrong, and that he had deceived the world in order to achieve his own goals. The so-called justice was just a few lies, so what justice could they have?

Without the banner of justice, they are a group of traitors and traitors.

It's no different from the yellow turban ant thief they despise.

Of course they can continue to resist, but they no longer have a reason to hide.They no longer have justice, they are fighting for their own interests.

Originally, there was nothing shameful in fighting for one's own interests.It's just that for scholar-officials who are used to using justice to disguise themselves, this is no different from going naked, and it is somewhat uncomfortable.

It is conceivable that after Yuan Shao's confession of guilt is announced to the world, some people will withdraw from Yecheng and Jizhou to avoid confronting the imperial court.

Some people's interests are not in Jizhou, and some people's interests are limited, which is not enough for them to risk their lives and wealth, and go all the way to the dark.

Those left are either die-hards who have no way out, or gamblers who have too much interest and are reluctant to give up.

A gust of wind blew in, the judge shuddered, woke up suddenly, and shouted quickly:

"Yuan Hao, Yuan Hao!"

Tian Feng had already walked down the steps, and stopped when he heard the sound, but did not come back.

The judge quickly got up, put on his coat, pushed the door out, rushed to Tian Feng's back, and grabbed Tian Feng's sleeve.

"Yuan Hao, is there still a chance?"

Tian Feng turned to look at the judge. "You mean, is there anyone who thinks the same as you?"

The judge nodded.

"There will be." Pain flashed in Tian Feng's eyes. "But the defeat is set. The longer it drags on, the more damage it will do to Jizhou. Zhengnan, are you really going to get there?"

The trial assistant twitched the corner of his mouth and let go of Tian Feng.

"Am I the one who surrendered without a fight? Even if I'm the only one, I'll let them see that there are so many martyrs in Jizhou, they are not comparable to those cowards in the Central Plains."

Tian Feng opened his mouth, his eyes became more and more confused in the heavy snow.

-

In the fourth year of Jian'an, the twelfth lunar month.

As Xian Yufu and Tian Yu led [-] Youzhou Tuqi to Luoyang, the total number of troops participating in the parade reached more than [-].

After a heavy snowfall, the sun shone brightly. Accompanied by Ma Yunlu, Liu Xie boarded the newly restored high platform.

The platform is ten feet high, with a canopy and a large banner.

Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and other casual riders stood aside.

Guo Wu, Zhao Yun, Liu He led nearly a hundred Sanqi servants and three hundred Jiaqi, standing around the audience.

More than four hundred people, although the number is less than one percent of the total force, the murderous aura revealed has moved countless people.

These are elites who have experienced bloody battles, just like the emperors and nobles on the stage.

The commander-in-chief of the review, Han Sui, immediately stood under the canopy, with his back to the emperor.Although he is also a famous general who has experienced countless bloody battles, when he thinks about the emperor behind him, his back feels a little tense, and he can't help but straighten his body, for fear that the emperor will find out that he is a little old.

On the large school field, more than [-] soldiers waited silently for the start of the review.

Huben and Habayashi were in the middle, and five hundred female riders stood in the Habayashi team. They were tall and straight, full of heroism, not inferior to the Habayashi knights beside them.

Shi Sun Rui is on the left, sitting on horseback.His gray beard was disheveled by the wind, adding a bit of casualness to his elegance.The infantry battalion and the shooting battalion behind them are fully armed and ready for the exercise.

Beside him were Xu Huang, Zang Hong, and Xian Yufu in sequence, extending to two columns.

Liu Bei is on the right.After more than half a month of training, the formation of the soldiers behind him became more orderly, and their expressions became more solemn.

Liu Bei held his head up, staring at the young emperor on the stage, his heart beating faster.

After many contacts, the more he knew about the emperor, the more he felt that the emperor was unattainable and a well-deserved hero.The situation that seemed to be about to collapse was moved in a completely different direction by him.

Who would have thought that the idea of ​​the yellow scarf would become a reality in the hands of the emperor, and the chaos in the world would become an opportunity to save the land. What Emperor Guangwu failed to accomplish was actually accomplished by the emperor.

All the people are men, at least it can make the great man glorious for another four or five hundred years, until another saint appears.

With such a hero in the Han Dynasty, how could Yuan Shao not be completely defeated.

It's a pity that I didn't listen to Guan Yu at the beginning and surrendered to the court early, otherwise Han Sui's position might be mine now.

Beside Liu Bei stood Lou Gui, Kuai Yue, and Tai Shici who came from Yangzhou in turn.

The four generals Duan Yao, Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, and Yang Ding each led their elites and lined up in four corners.

Around the school grounds, there were many people who came to watch the ceremony. In order to see clearly, many people climbed up the city walls and trees. There were even many people standing on the Luoyang city in the distance.

It took a long time to prepare, and the news was released for a long time. Many people came from surrounding counties and towns to watch the ceremony.Many of them knew that Emperor Xiaoling had reviewed it more than ten years ago, so they naturally compared it with the soldiers in front of them.

The difference is obvious.

Whether it was the Northern Army or the Eighth School of Xiyuan ten years ago, they were all ostentatious appearances.The armor may be brighter, but the spirit and spirit are completely incomparable with these elite soldiers in front of them.

Whether it is elite or not, sometimes you don't even need to practice, just look at your body posture and eyes to tell the difference.

But the bigger difference is that although the soldiers in front of them can tell they are elite at a glance, the people watching are not afraid, but feel more at ease.

The Son of Heaven is a sage, who can teach Xiliang people who are like tigers and wolves into teachers of civilization, and let them assist in local farming and flood control. How can the soldiers of Shandong prefecture and county harm the people?

"I didn't expect that I could return to Luoyang and see Master Wang in my lifetime." In the crowd, there was a travel-worn old man who said so, tears streaming down his face.

"Everyone says that Emperor Xiaoling is absurd. Looking at it now, I'm afraid it's not." A middle-aged man with the appearance of a scholar stroked his beard thoughtfully. "If you are poor, you will change. If you change, you will be successful. If you are successful, you will be long-term. Therefore, you will be blessed by God, and there will be no disadvantages. How can you stick to the established rules and learn from Handan?"
