Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 40: Going to Zhang Guangzong

It is still very effective for Huangfusong to write a letter to ask for credit for Jia Rong. Now that the Yellow Turban rebels are rampant and the Han Dynasty is dying, the Emperor of Han is no longer reluctant to take official positions. He named Huangfusong General Zhengdong, Zhu Jun General Zhendong, and Jiarong He is the school lieutenant of Xiaoqi, with a rank ratio of two thousand stones.

Emperor Han couldn't think of any official title for Jia Rong, and when the official positions in the court were almost sold, he rewarded Jia Rong with a Xiaoqi school lieutenant.

Although it is the same position as the captain of Dong Zhuofeng before, it is appointed by the imperial court, and it is still a captain of Xiaoqi.

Dong Zhuona was just an official position in his own army system, that is to say, from now on, Jia Rong is also a court official, not limited to Dong Zhuo's management constraints.

The rank of Xiaoqi school captain is more than two thousand shi, which is already a very small official; besides, Jia Rong has no one to speak for him in the court, and he has no money to manage it. It can be said that it is a rare event in the late Eastern Han Dynasty to be named the captain of cavalry. thing.

For example, Cao Cao now has people in the court and a rich family, but he is only a riding captain.

Hearing that Jia Rong was granted a title by the imperial court, all the generals came to congratulate him one after another, and Jia Rong replied modestly one by one.

Huangfu Song all expressed the fact that Zuo Feng of the Huang family had extorted bribes and that Lu Zhi was innocent. The Emperor of Han was furious and beheaded Zuo Feng to comfort the army.

Liu Bei also broke away from the white body this time, and was awarded the title of Yamen General by the court. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei each had rewards as a token of reward.

It was night, and Huangfusong sent an order to ask Jia Rong to go to the tent of the Chinese army.

Seeing Jia Rong coming, Huangfusong signaled Jia Rong to sit closer; after Jia Rong sat down, Huangfusong said: "Zhiyuan, the power of the Yellow Turban rebels in Yingchuan has been declared disintegrated, and Zhiyuan will come next." Wait for the imperial edict."

Hearing Huangfusong's words, Jia Rong seemed to have other meanings, so he asked, "I'm humble and dull, and I don't know what the general means. On the day when Changsha was besieged, I was ordered by General Dong to come to the rescue. Now the crisis has been broken. Rong should return to the original army."

Huangfu Song said: "Now that the country is in trouble, Zhiyuan should think about the society. You are now the imperial order of Xiaoqi Xiaowei, with a rank of two thousand stones. You are already a senior member of the army. You should no longer listen to Dong Zhuo. order."

After Jia Rong listened to Huangfusong's explanation, he suddenly realized that Emperor Han wanted to divide Dong Zhuo's military power. Now Dong Zhuo's military strength is stronger than that of other Han court troops. Emperor Han wanted to reward Jia Rong to indirectly divide Dong Zhuo's military power. Emperor Han also didn't want the Yellow Turban rebels to strengthen Dong Zhuo's strength just after they were wiped out.

Jia Rong stepped forward and said, "Since that's the case, I don't know what to do with the Xiliang cavalry I brought?"

After pacing for a long time, Huangfu Song said: "Is the land of the world the king's land, and the shore of the land is the king's subject? I believe Zhiyuan has heard this sentence. Now that the Han Dynasty is weak, Zhiyuan should do his best. Your Majesty I named you Xiaoqi school lieutenant, and did not say anything about your army system, so you continued to lead the [-] Xiliang cavalry. As for the [-] cavalry from the fifth school of the Northern Army, they will be incorporated into General Zhu and I. "

After Jia Rong listened to Huangfusong's words, he hurried forward and said, "General, you can't do this. I was born in the Xiliang army. General Dong has the kindness to know you. How can you act like this now? When the rescue came, the army was already in danger, and now the crisis situation in Changsha has been broken, so I should lead the army back, and please the general!"

Huangfusong also knew that this matter was not easy to handle, and persuaded him: "Zhiyuan, I believe that even General Dong will not blame you when he hears about this matter. I understand you."

Jia Rong didn't believe that this matter would be so simple, and he didn't want to get caught up in this struggle for power. Now that the Han Dynasty is weak, and the Yellow Turban bandits have risen, the Emperor Han ordered all states and counties to organize soldiers to fight against the bandits, and the power is in control In the hands of the officials, it is a situation where the ministers are strong and the emperor is weak; if I join it, it will be fine if the imperial power wins, otherwise I will be a scapegoat in the future. When the imperial power is threatened, I will definitely be the first to be pushed out.

I still have a general idea of ​​the situation in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. If I show my favor to the Han Emperor now, I will be out of luck once Dong Zhuo gains power as recorded in history, so Jia Rong thought of fleeing back to the Xiliang army.

Although he thought so in his heart, Jia Rong didn't dare to show it. He said yes to Huangfu Song Nuonuo and left.

After leaving Huangfusong's camp, Jia Rong rushed all the way to the army, and immediately sent an order for Hua Xiong to come and see him.

Now that the situation is critical, I naturally want to seek the opinion of the number one brave general in Xiliang.

Hua Xiong heard that Jia Rong called him to discuss important matters, so he hurried all the way here.

Jia Rong helped Hua Xiong who was about to bow to him and said, "General Hua, the situation is urgent now, so there is no need to be formal."

Jia Rong gave Hua Xiong an overview of what Huangfu Song called him to say today. After hearing this, Hua Xiong said angrily, "This Huangfu Song doesn't know what to do. We rushed all the way to rescue him, but he did something wrong." Such a thing."

Jia Rong hurriedly stopped what Hua Xiong was going to say next, and said: "General Hua, don't do this, this is also the meaning of the Holy Majesty. Now we are in their camp, so be careful when you speak, lest the walls have ears!"

Hua Xiong also realized that his actions were wrong, and Nuo Nuo said yes.

Jia Rong asked the angry Hua Xiong, "General Yihua saw it, what should I do?"

Hua Xiong scratched his head and said: "This really frustrates me. If the general asks me to kill the enemy on the battlefield, Hua will go forward bravely without frowning; but Hua really doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing. The general decides."

Jia Rong knew that this would be the result, so he didn't force anything. He whispered to Hua Xiong for a while, and Hua Xiong repeatedly said yes after hearing it.

Immediately after Hua Xiong left Jia Rong's camp, he summoned all the Xiliang cavalry and brought ten days' worth of dry food.

Jia Rong hurried to the tent where Liu Bei and the three were, and told Liu Bei that he was about to drive back to Guangzong to help Dong Zhuo in the starry night, and hoped that Liu Bei and the three would go back with him.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bei bowed to Jia Rong after hearing this and said: "General, it's not that Bei is unwilling to return to Guangzong with the general, but that Bei's benefactor, Mr. Lu, asked Bei to come to help General Zhu. The teacher's order is hard to break. I hope the general will understand."

Jia Rong didn't force Liu Bei's indirect refusal and his return to Guangzong. After bidding farewell to Liu Bei, he hurried back to the camp where the Xiliang army was.

Seeing that Hua Xiong had finished preparing the three armies and rushed out of the city with more than 3000 cavalry, he did not ask Zhu Jun and Huang Fusong to resign.

Jia Rong's decision this time means that he has broken with the Han court. Such behavior is an act of disrespect for the court, which has played a non-negligible role in Jia Rong's future path.

When they reached the gate of Changshe, the general in charge of guarding the gate immediately stopped the army from advancing, saying that only the documents of General Zhu and General Huangfu could pass through.

Jia Rong rode his horse forward, bowed his hands to the generals defending the city and said, "I am Jia Rong from the Xiliang Army. The situation is urgent. Generals Huangfu and General Zhu haven't had time to give the customs clearance documents. Generals, please be considerate and enlarge the army to go immediately." .”

When the general guarding the city heard that it was Jia Rong, he immediately lowered his posture. Now everyone in the army knows about Jia Rong's plan to break the Yellow Turban against the bandits.

However, the general guarding the city still did not let Jia Rong go, but said helplessly: "General, the humble officer is responsible for guarding the city gate. General Zhu has a military order, and no one is allowed to open the city gate without a written document from General Zhu, otherwise the humble officer will definitely be killed." He was severely punished, please forgive me, General.”

Jia Rong thought for a while and said, "The military situation ahead is urgent, and General Zhu sent troops to help Xingye, that's why he left in such a hurry."

Seeing that the generals defending the city were still unwilling to let him go, Jia Rong feigned anger and said, "If this delays the important affairs of the country, can you afford it? Be careful that you get killed!"

Hearing what Jia Rong said, the guarding general also considered that if things were true as Jia Rong said, he would be out of luck. Even if Jia Rong's army was let out of the city, it would be fine. The Yellow Turban rebels had already been defeated, so Nuonuo retreated.

After the city gate was opened, Jia Rong asked Hua Xiong to lead the cavalry to gallop out of the city, and more than [-] cavalry rumbled out of the city.

The situation was urgent, and Jia Rong did not bring out the cavalry from the Fifth School of the Northern Army. Kuang Huangfusong also said that he would incorporate the cavalry from the Fifth School of the Northern Army into the army. Jia Rong only brought the troops from Xiliang.

At this moment, a general rushed out from behind the army, with Danfeng eyes and crouching silkworm eyebrows, and leaping forward with a large iron sword in hand.

Jia Rong ordered the three armies to wait outside the city, and he and Hua Xiong reined in their horses and came before the general.

Jia Rong cupped his hands to the general and said, "General Guan, what do you mean?"

Guan Yu replied: "Military orders are hard to disobey, I hope the general will understand!"

It turned out that Liu Bei smelled something abnormal from Jia Rong's words. It stands to reason that the military situation ahead is urgent, and the generals should discuss this matter together before deciding on it. How could Jia Rong be so rashly let Jia Rong go.

After leaving the gate of the camp, he found that Jia Rong was summoning soldiers, as if he was about to set off. Seeing the emergency, Liu Bei immediately took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to the main tent of the Chinese army, and reported the facts to Zhu Jun, Huang Fusong and Xi Jinping. The situation of the Liang army.

As soon as Huangfusong heard that it was broken, it must be Dong Zhuojun who Jia Rong wanted to take soldiers to Guangzong, and explained the situation to Zhu Jun and Liu Bei hastily.

The Xiliang army was full of cavalry, and it was difficult for my own soldiers to catch up, so I immediately sent Guan Yu's fast horse to stop it, and led the army to catch up.

Seeing Guan Yu's arrival, Jia Rong knew that Huangfusong must have known the news that he led the army to leave. If he didn't leave now, after a while Huangfusong's army caught up with him and he couldn't leave even if he wanted to. will be charged.

After reading the Three Kingdoms, Jia Rong has a relatively good understanding of Guan Yu's personal character. After Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Chibi in the past, Yu Huarong Road was surrounded by soldiers led by Guan Yu. Guan Yu thought of the kindness of the past, and couldn't bear it, so he released Cao Cao and left, leaving behind his righteous name through the ages.
