Chapter 10: The Little Yellow Gate
The war on the battlefield continues, and the political intrigue never stops.
In Luoyang Palace, Emperor Ling sat boredly on the dragon chair, supporting his head with one hand.
"Father, has the governor been on the other side, has the money been delivered?" , Emperor Ling suddenly became interested, of course, the interest was not whether the state pastor could pass the local governance, but that the money was not in place, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion improved a little, so he happened to set up a name to loot the money.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, you have already taken up part of the throne, and the rest will go to work one after another, and your hunting ground outside the city is also being prepared", Zhang Rang answered Emperor Ling's worries covertly, and understood what Emperor Ling really cared about, and said with a flattering face.
"Okay, Father, I'm relieved," Emperor Ling said happily, and then coughed violently.
"Something to start, nothing to retreat"
Zhang Rang exchanged glances with several eunuchs next to him, and the other eunuch nodded and looked at the ministers below.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something important to do"
"Say, what's the matter", Emperor Ling asked casually without interest.
"Report to Your Majesty, General Huangfu Song has broken the Yellow Turban Army on the Yingchuan battlefield, but Lu Zhi on the Guangzong battlefield is besieging but not attacking, and the intention is unknown", the minister pointed to the end, one unclear intention is enough to complete the task assigned to him by the ten permanent servants, the general is leading the troops outside, and the Yellow Turban Army has an ambiguous attitude, what will Emperor Ling think.
"Bold, does he want to rebel", Emperor Ling said angrily, he thought that the world was all because of the chaos caused by that group of hateful Yellow Turban thieves, and winning the Yellow Turban was the hero.
"Your Majesty, how conscientious General Lu Wei is in his life, there should be no intention of rebellion, it is better to send a prison army to urge the Yellow Turban to be pacified as soon as possible", Zhang Rang stood up at this time to help Lu Zhi speak.
"Okay, Father, you send a prison guard to see if Lu Zhi has any intention of rebelling", Emperor Ling walked back and forth on the stage, agreeing with Zhang Rang's proposal.
Lu Value, Lu Value, you have not always been a person who claims to be upright, I see what you will do, you have an ambiguous attitude towards the Yellow Turban, and you sneer at Your Majesty's envoys, no one can save you this time.
Zhang Rang sent Xiaohuangmen Zuo Feng to set off, and before leaving, he also deliberately explained some things, such as
The main purpose of the operation.
Liu Yi and Lu Zhi were in the camp at this time, and they had been discussing the art of war, although it was said to be a discussion, in fact, it was mainly Lu Zhi who taught Liu Yi, and occasionally Liu Yi had some novel ideas that could also give Lu Zhi some inspiration, and they didn't know that a big net was rushing towards them.
"Ziang, you have a flexible mind, you are not the kind of person who reads military books to death, this is very good, remember, military books are dead, people are alive, no matter how good the book is, it will only teach you some countermeasures, and when the two armies really face each other, you still need to adapt to the situation", Lu Zhi stroked his beard and said with relief.
"The teacher taught well, Ziang remembered", Liu Yi replied respectfully.
"This book of the Art of War is one of the best military books in the world that the old man treasures, you can take it and have a good understanding", Lu Wei picked up a book from the table and said to Liu Yi, it seems that it has been prepared for Liu Yi a long time ago.
"Thank you for the gift of Mr. Xie", Liu Yi knows how important books are in this era, and some people buy a volume of money, especially books on the art of war, which are even rarer.
Sun Tzu's Art of War, this is the most classic military book, but it's a pity that those who can really use the things in this book flexibly are the world's top strategists and generals, remember that there are thirty-six strategies, which have not yet appeared, and when there is a chance in the future, they must be sorted out.
"Okay, go back and have a good understanding, there will be a big battle tomorrow night, have a good rest today", Lu Zhi looked at the map, saw that Liu Yi couldn't put it down, and drove Liu Yi away with a smile.
"Yes, teacher, you should also rest early"
No dreams until dawn, dawn breaks, and it's a new day.
"It's noisy outside, what's going on, and I don't let people sleep well", Liu Yi rubbed his eyes that had just opened, and a sense of getting up came up instantly, and he got dressed and strode outside the tent.
When he got out of the camp, he saw the soldiers running to a place in a hurry, Liu Yi curiously grabbed a person and asked, "What's the matter, what are you running there in a hurry?"
"Report to the military division, Luoyang has come to the holy decree, everyone has been ordered to gather in front of the camp", and strode over after speaking.
"What kind of holy decree is coming at this time, isn't the Yellow Turban Army broken yet", Liu Yi muttered, and hurriedly followed, with some bad premonitions.
Liu Yi felt that it was, and he saw Lu Shi striding over like a meteor, walking in front of a little eunuch with a white face and beard.
"General Lu Zhi, Your Majesty's holy decree, take it", Zuo Feng opened the holy decree after speaking, and began to read it.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said that Lu Zhonglang will attack Guangzong City for many days, and now he orders Zuo Feng to be the supervisor of the army and immediately attack the city", Zuo Feng smiled and handed the holy decree to the kneeling Lu Zhi.
"The minister receives the order", Lu Wei took the holy decree and stood there expressionlessly.
"When will Lu Zhonglang start attacking the city, Your Majesty can't wait, if you still have an ambiguous attitude with the Yellow Turban, the little one will have to go back to Beijing and report truthfully"
"Tomorrow night, the whole army will attack the city", Lu Zhi glanced at the little yellow door that spoke in a strange manner.
"This can't be done, it's still early today, it's better to fight the city tonight", Zuo Feng proposed, anyway, as long as it is not as good as Lu Zhi's wishes. Zuo Feng has to do it, only by forcing Lu Zhi to rebel against the holy decree in anger, the task will be completed.
"The old man is a general, I don't need you to point fingers, I will attack the city tomorrow night", Lu Zhi finished speaking, and turned his head to leave.
"Lu Zhonglang, don't be so excited, when will the siege be discussed again", Zuo Feng had a smile on his face that you know.
"A swarm of court moths, get out"
Lu Zhi looked at Zuo Feng's gesture with his right hand angrily, thinking that it was this group of villains in the cholera government who caused the current situation of the Han Dynasty, so he was angry and scolded.
"General Lu, the attitude is so resolute, it can't be discussed", Zuo Feng had already reported Lu Zhi's disobedience to the decree in his heart, but he still wanted to get some benefits, and it was not easy to rush all the way.
"Don't negotiate, get out"
Zuo Feng turned around and left with a grim face, Liu Yi hurriedly moved forward, he remembered an incident that happened during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Lu Wei was dismissed and imprisoned because he was unwilling to bribe Zuo Feng of the little yellow door, and he was rescued by Emperor Fu Song to avoid death.
"Teacher, then Zuo Feng will definitely not give up, just give him some silver and two counts, it's not worth it", Liu Yi said to Lu Wei worriedly.
"You don't understand the affairs of the court, if I bribe Zuo Feng today, it will be equivalent to bowing my head to the faction of the Ten Standing Servants, I can't be honest and honest, and what shame do I have to spit on their group of people", Lu Wei shook his head and explained to Liu Yi.
"......"
"It's okay, when Guangzong breaks the yellow turban outside the city tomorrow and returns with a big victory, they can't help me"
