Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 148
Luoyang, West Garden.

This is the largest garden around Luoyang, and Liu Hong has the confidence to surpass the previous emperors in terms of garden repair.

Strictly speaking, the West Garden has not been repaired, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Qiangliang Rebellion came one after another, so Liu Hong had to stop the repair of the West Garden. However, the West Garden is now ready for occupancy. Pavilions and palaces are more comfortable than imperial palaces.

After the Southern Huns and Xianbei allied forces attacked Hedong County, Liu Hong lost his appetite all day long, and even many court ladies were driven back to the palace by him.

It's really unattractive.

Zhao Zhong quietly put on the steps, every time at sunset, Liu Hong would watch the sunset here.

"Your Majesty! Youzhou has a report!" Zhao Zhong knelt down in the tunnel.

"What's the matter?" Liu Hong replied casually, now he only cares about the Qiangliang rebels and the foreign allied forces in Hedong County.

Zhao Zhong unfolded the military newspaper, glanced quickly, and a trace of horror suddenly appeared in his eyes.

It's a big deal!
"Your Majesty, there is a rebellion in Youzhou!" Zhao Zhong summed it up succinctly.

Liu Hong turned around abruptly, stretched out his hand, and Zhao Zhong sent the general report to Liu Hong in a trembling manner.

"Zhang Ju from Yuyang, Zhang Chun, Lord Wuhuan Qiu Liju." Liu Hong read the names, "If I remember correctly, this piece of pure Zhang Ju is probably the chief of the county."

"Your Majesty, Zhang Chunnai is the former Prime Minister of Zhongshan, and Zhang Ju is the governor of Taishan County. The two are brothers. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they abandoned their official positions and fled back to their hometown Yuyang."

The information that was not in General Zhao Zhong's newspaper was supplemented.

"Liu Zheng, the prefect of Youbeiping, is dead, and Tuyin has also fallen." Liu Hong said lightly. In his impression, Liu Zheng was a good person, and it would be a pity to die. "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, according to what Zhang Sikong said, he wanted to use Gongsun Zan as a general to help him attack Han Sui's Huangzhong righteous congregation. It coincided with the rebellion of Zhang Chun brothers, so Gongsun Zan led troops to attack him. Your Majesty should bestow corresponding official positions and military positions to stabilize the situation. Military spirit."

"This matter is easy to handle. Let him be named Captain Cavalry, and then let Zhonglang drive Meng Yi to Youzhou quickly, and lead the army of Youzhou to quell the rebellion!" Liu Hong looked at the military newspaper, and finally set his sights on Liu Bei above his name, "This Liu Bei, do you know this person?"

Zhao Zhong pondered for a while, he had seen this name before.

"Your Majesty, I just remembered that Liu Bei's alias is Xuande, but he made great contributions in Ping Huangjin in Jizhou, and was recommended by General Huangfu as Julu County Captain."

"This man has led his troops to fight the enemy several times, and he has gained a lot. It seems that he is a talent! It's just that he works in Jizhou, how could he go to Youzhou to fight?"

Zhao Zhong didn't know the reason.

"Your Majesty, maybe this person was on business nearby, and just happened to bump into him." Zhao Zhong speculated.

Liu Hong didn't want to imagine what would happen to Youzhou, nor did he want to delve into why Liu Bei was in Youzhou. What he cared most about now was still the west.

"Any news from Hedong or Meiyang?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Meiyang is still at a stalemate, but in Hedong, after several battles, Governor Ding has gained quite a lot, and the foreigner has not been allowed to step out of the valley!"

"Hedong urgent report—" From a distance, a little Huangmen ran over, and immediately attracted the eyes of Liu Hong and Zhao Zhong.

Xiao Huangmen knelt down on the ground, unfolded the military report, and said loudly: "Report to Your Majesty, Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, hastened the military report. The army of the Southern Huns has withdrawn and returned to the north. The intention is unknown. misfortune!"

"The troops have been withdrawn?" Liu Hong was overjoyed, and said, "It must be that the Southern Huns knew that they would not end well if they rebelled against the big man, so they got lost and returned!"

When Zhao Zhong heard this, he felt that His Majesty's guess was not reliable. The Southern Huns Xubu Gudu killed Qiangqu Shanyu, who was appointed by the Han Dynasty. At this time, Yu Fuluo, the son of Qiangqu Shanyu, was still serving the Han army. Effectiveness.

Get lost?Then return the position of Chanyu to Yu Fuluo?

"Your Majesty, there may be other changes in the court of the Southern Huns. For example, Wang Zhi, the prefect of Wuyuan, attacked the royal court of the Southern Huns!" Zhao Zhong also proposed a hypothesis. Wang Zhi was a member of their party. Obviously, this guess It is more reliable than Liu Hong's wishful thinking.

"Wang Zhiruo is here, how could the Xianbei army appear in Xihe County without warning!" Liu Hong was displeased. He was very angry at the sudden disappearance of the eunuch faction. People on his side.

Zhao Zhong was powerless to refute, not to mention Your Majesty, their Ten Permanent Attendants also hated Wang Zhi very much. The rebels can retreat without a fight.

Fortunately, Liu Hong protected them!

"Your Majesty, I have something else to do."

Liu Hong remained silent.

"After the shackles of the party were lifted, the activities of the party members became more and more rampant. Now in Luoyang City, there are many people criticizing the government. How can His Majesty tolerate it?" Zhao Zhong said cautiously.

"So what if you can't tolerate it, I guess you still want to say, then Yuan Kai is the head of the scholars that day, Yuan's mansion is full of guests, the threshold will be smoothed!"

Zhao Zhong's heart palpitated for a while, it seems that His Majesty knows it himself!

"You guys should think about how to retreat from foreign enemies, Zhao Changshi!" Liu Hong reminded, as if beating, that this time is definitely not a time for internal fighting, you should turn a blind eye and close one eye, that's all.

"Follow Your Majesty's instruction!" Zhao Zhong saluted and left.

Liu Hong looked to the northwest by himself, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, the royal court of the Southern Huns has changed, Wang Zhi?Do not!
The person he suspected was actually Liu Qing!

……

The news of the retreat of the Southern Huns also reached General He Jin, and hearty laughter came from the general's mansion.

It has been a long time since the great army suppressed this kind of laughter in the general's mansion.

"Since the Southern Huns have been defeated, Xianbei will not be able to hold on for long! The crisis in the east of the river has been solved halfway, and the governor of Ding really lived up to everyone's expectations!" He Jin laughed.

"General, the Battle of Hedong has come to an end, and now Xianbei is alone, it is better to let General Huangfu and Ding Inspector cross the river together and attack Xianbei, the overall situation in Hedong can be determined!" Yuan Shao said.

After thinking about it, He Jin felt that Yuan Shao's words made sense.

"What I said at the beginning is timely. Our army should take advantage of the victory to pursue. The sooner we end the battle in Hedong, the sooner we can assist Meiyang, I will write a letter to General Huangfu and Inspector Ding!" He Jin laughed.

"The general is wise!" All the officials said in unison.

"Wait a minute, general!" Suddenly a voice objected.

He Jin saw that it was Xun Gongda from Yingchuan.

"Does Gongda have objections?" He Jin asked.

"General, Ding Cishi's letter guessed that the Southern Huns withdrew in a hurry to the north because of some changes in the royal family of the Southern Huns. But think about it carefully, how decisive it is for the Southern Huns to move south. If Bingzhou still exists, it can threaten its base He must not dare to do this, and this move may be a trick, because the Han army crossed the river and was attacked by it instead!"

When He Jin heard it, he thought it made sense!

"In the public opinion, what should we do?"

Xun You smiled, "General, it's easy. You just need to step up inspections and send a small group of cavalry to cross the river first. After confirming the traces of the Southern Huns, the army can cross the river."

"Gongda is cautious, and I will follow your plan!" He Jin said.

Xun You arched his hands and expressed his gratitude to the general for his recognition.

He Jin also discussed with everyone about the internal and external military, but compared with the war, it is all trivial. Now that the West Garden Army is about to be formed, and the number of personnel is increasing day by day, He Jin feels that his position is in jeopardy.

Jian Shuo was a lieutenant in the army and almost led He Jindu in. When the Qiangliang rebels came to the eunuch, His Majesty not only did not punish him, but also allowed his power to expand further.

He Jin was having a headache, he worked hard for the big man, sweated and bled, and worked hard for Liu Hong!

Why not compare to a group of eunuchs!
Could it be that my sister cannot satisfy His Majesty?

It seems that I have to find a time to visit my sister, Empress He.

After the discussion was over, everyone dispersed, and Yuan Shao also went straight back to his house, an ordinary house in Luoyang West City, which was also the place where he used to meet guests.

"Foreign relatives, eunuchs, scholars..." Yuan Shao muttered as he walked into the house.

"Foreign relatives, eunuchs, scholars..." Yuan Shao repeated it over and over again, as if he was looking for the crux of the matter.

Born into the Yuan family, he lived temporarily in the tent of his relatives, and his opponent was an eunuch. Yuan Shao talked to himself and went straight to the backyard.

This is a small courtyard, standing a wooden man practicing sword, and next to it is a whetstone. The whetstone is very big, but it is already very flat, because Yuan Shao has used it for seven years to sharpen his sword. The sword is gone, and the sword has been changed many times, but the whetstone has always been this one.

Yuan Shao drew his sword out, put the sword in front of him, and observed carefully.

"A good sword! But it's not sharp enough!" Yuan Shao sighed, and immediately moved over the stool and began to sharpen the sword.

Only when sharpening the sword, the ideal in his heart is clear and clear. This is a habit developed by his mother for three years of filial piety.

Born in the Yuan family, in the eyes of the world, he is a lucky one, but only he himself knows that because his birth mother's status is humble, even the eldest son is also a concubine, and he was adopted early to his uncle Yuan Cheng, who died young, to continue the incense.

Although this move further established Yuan Shao's status as the eldest son of the Yuan family in terms of patriarchal clan, he became an orphan.

To put it bluntly, there is no father who can hold his thigh. Yuan's fame is shared by all Yuan's children, and the help of his own father is the most direct and effective.

So when Yuan Shao became an official, he couldn't even keep Sili, so he was directly sent out to become a small county magistrate of Puyang. No one else could compare with him, so he made Cao Mengde a junior. He was the northern captain of Luoyang at first, but later he offended the powerful and was demoted from Beijing. , when the county magistrate.

A county magistrate and a county magistrate, although they are all magistrates of the same county, their salaries are divided into high places.

This matter planted a seed of self-reliance and self-improvement in the young Yuan Shao's heart. Although there is Yuan's shadow, if he wants to realize the ideal of supporting the Han family, suppressing rebellion, and eradicating eunuchs, he has to rely on himself!
Yuan Shao put the sword on the stone, and began to sharpen it back and forth, chanting rhythmically while sharpening——

"At the beginning, I was the head of Puyang, and I had a clear reputation for governing. Suddenly, I heard that my biological mother died, and I wore hemp for three years. My official career was broken, and my political achievements disappeared..."

"Look up at the court, the eunuchs are in charge, now I am alone, where can I reopen, my father died young, and I will make up for the mourning..."

"Three years and three years later, the whole world is moved. The Yuan family has its own roots, is filial, and is succeeding Yuan Cheng's family, the eldest son of the three generations!"

Yuan Shao withdrew his sword, flicked it with his fingers, the long sword groaned softly, and he smiled contentedly.

Relying on the reputation of "a filial son", Yuan Shao has accumulated a lot of prestige, which is much faster than becoming an official. Now that the situation in Luoyang is turbulent, it won't be long before this sword may come in handy!
……

A few days later, Liu Qing, who handed over all military affairs to Guo Jia, finally received Guo Jia's first "military order".

Pass Yanshui, pass Shangjun, and enter Sili!
The big camp set out, and the luggage was slow, but Liu Qing led Dian Wei Qianying, and after meeting Zhao Yun, he went directly along the river and passed through Shangjun. On the way, he met Ding Yuan's cavalry sentry.

When the cavalry sentry reported the encounter with Liu Qing's cavalry to Ding Yuan, Ding Yuan was silent for a long time.

Surprised, curious, surprised.

He already knew Liu Qing's name when he followed Zhang Yi as an official of Bingzhou County, because he was the prefect of Yanmen, the target of the governor's supervision, and Liu Qing's name was too famous.

A few days ago, because the leader invaded Yanmen County, Zhang Yi was still blaming himself for his Majesty's transfer of the frontier army, and he did not properly handle Yanmen's defense. Who would have expected that Zhang Yi would die fighting with self-blame.

And when he appeared here, the problem that puzzled Ding Yuan was finally solved.

The battle at Yanmen was over, and the so-called change in the court of the Southern Huns was written by Liu Qing, because it was not far from Yanmen County.

It's just that if Ding Yuan knew that Liu Qing went to Wuyuan and captured Jiuyuan City before he solved the Southern Huns, he didn't know what kind of expression he would have on his face.

At this time, Ding Yuan had already crossed the river and was stationed in the big camp left by the Southern Huns, while Zhang Yang was stationed on the valley road in the east of the river.

"Father, what is Liu Qing's identity, and I want you to go out for a few miles?"

Lu Bu immediately stood beside Ding Yuan and asked curiously, he was only called by Ding Yuan to come here together, and he didn't know about the letter.

"It's the prefect of Yanmen County, Mr. Liu Qing."

"Is that the number one young eunuch of a big man?" Lu Bu had obviously heard of Liu Qing's reputation, but it was not a name for his hard work and heroic killing of the enemy, but rather a rumor.

"Yes, it is this person. I heard that he is not tolerated by the eunuchs, and even His Majesty is quite afraid of him. However, General Huangfu asked for credit for him, and even did not hesitate to offend the eunuch. You should know the authority of General Huangfu. The general treats you like this, it must not be underestimated."

After hearing this, Lu Bu nodded secretly, "It's good luck to be favored by General Huangfu!"

"I heard that this man used his troops to his heart's content and was unparalleled in bravery. He must have been the one who retreated from the south to the north." Ding Yuan guessed and told.

Hearing Ding Yuan's brave words, Lu Bu frowned.

Using soldiers like gods, Lu Bu put a question mark in his heart, is he brave and unparalleled?He doesn't believe it!

People and horses from afar appeared and came slowly.

Liu Qing was also surprised to see someone in front of him, but Ding Yuan went out for several miles, which can be said to have given Liu Qing enough face.

"My lord, I heard that Ding Jianyang also started from a very young age, and he didn't have any connections with others. Looking at his actions now, he is really a good man!"

Liu Qing nodded, this is a high EQ, in this big man who has connections all over the place, it is not only ability and merit that make him stand out, EQ is also very important, at least there are many negative examples, many capable people even because of Low kills.

"Ding Yuan, Ding Jianyang." Liu Qing said without thinking, and then added in his heart: It's a tragedy.

The person next to him who is more than a head taller than Ding Yuan must be Lu Bu.

I didn't expect to see the ceiling of force so soon.

Two groups of people rode to meet each other, and they approached quickly. Ding Yuan smiled and cupped his hands at Liu Qing.

Seeing that his beard had turned grizzled, Liu Qing couldn't help but sigh again in his heart, Ding Yuan can be regarded as a grassroots representative, and it took him most of his life to climb this step.

"Liu Fujun's name is like thunder, it's a great honor to meet you today!" Ding Yuan said.

Liu Qing led the crowd to return the gift, "Inspector Ding was ordered to stop the enemy in Hexi, and he has worked hard!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Qing turned his gaze to the person beside Ding Yuan, and he almost went blind after just one glance.
