From the beginning of the proposal to select people from the prisoners of war of the Xiliang Army to form a forbidden army, Yan Shao had already begun to consider the issue of suitable candidates.

At all, it is also 5,000 soldiers and horses, this number is definitely not small, with such a group of soldiers and horses is enough for Liu Xie to have a certain degree of autonomy, even if Cao Cao really masters Xuchang in the future, Liu Xie is not without the ability to resist, at least it can bring Cao Cao some trouble.

The premise is that Liu Xie has the right person in his hands to master these 5,000 soldiers and horses...

If there is no suitable candidate, let alone Cao Cao, I am afraid that Yang Feng and Xu Rong, the old men of the Xiliang Army, are enough for Liu Xie. After all, Yang Feng and Xu Rong and others have an innate advantage, that is, they are all Xiliang people, and at the most critical moment, they can completely rely on the advantages of their fellow villagers to let the captives of the Xiliang Army take refuge in them.

In this way, these more than 5,000 people are almost equivalent to giving them to Yang Feng for nothing, and it is no wonder that Yang Feng and Xu Rong are annoyed and excited about this proposal.

Annoyed that this proposal is almost explicitly aimed at them, but because of their identity, they have no way to stand up and oppose it blatantly, but they have to remain silent in order to avoid suspicion, of course, they can not be silent, but you must know that the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City are not only their remnants of the defeated generals. Whether it is Yan Shao's Qingzhou army or Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, the number is not a few, and if the two are added together, the strength is even higher than the remnants of these Xiliang armies.

Coupled with the vigilance of the imperial court itself against the Xiliang Army now, many things are self-evident.

It can only be said that these people today are far inferior to Dong Zhuo back then, but they are far inferior to Guo and Li who have just died. In real history, in the process of chasing Liu Xie, they even slaughtered a lot of ministers, at least at present, many of these ministers standing in the court did not actually live to see Luoyang City.

And the two of them don't have this strength...

Even if they really want to do something, they should be careful, so as not to be solved by Yan Shao and Cao Cao. What's more, there is Ma Chao in the city now, and this guy is also an unstable factor.

It was precisely to ensure that the 5,000 soldiers and horses could be in the hands of Liu Xie, and not immediately run into the hands of Yang Feng, Xu Rong, or Cao Cao, that Yan Shao would select talents among the officials under Liu Xie.

Zhong Xuan, the person he picked,

1111111 dividing line 1111111

Hearing the name Zhong Xiang Zhong Yuanchang, everyone present was stunned for a moment, especially Zhong Xiang himself. He didn't expect Yan Shao to mention his name at all.

For a moment, the scene was a little silent.

But soon, there was a discussion in the hall, especially the old ministers of the Han family.

To be honest, there are really few talents in today's Han family who can make Yan Shao look at them, one is Xu Huang and one is Zhong Xuan. That's pretty much it.

It should be said that the most suitable person to command these more than 5,000 soldiers and horses is Xu Huang, not Zhong Xuan.

Although Zhong Xuan does not understand anything about military affairs, Xu Huang is also a serious 800 military background, which is more professional than Zhong Xuan, and he is also a fierce general. At the same time, Xu Huang is also a member of the Xiliang Army, although he is not from Xiliang, but he can also be more easily recognized.

It's a pity that Yan Shao fell in love with him.

Such a fierce general doesn't use it himself, but leaves it to Liu Xie? To be reasonable, Yan Shao will be distressed.

What's more, Xu Huang was the original Yang Feng's general, and Yan Shao had just pried him away. Yang Feng and Xu Huang had a close relationship, so if they both stayed in Luoyang, Yan Shao himself would not feel at ease.

To be honest, Yan Shao even considered whether to pry Zhong Xuan away. After all, this person can be said to be a very capable person, Qingzhou needs such a person, and Yan Shao also needs such a person to assist.

It's a pity that Zhong Xuan's situation is very different from Xu Huang's, and the most obvious difference is that today's Zhong Xuan is more or less famous. Although the current Han family is still a little worse, Zhong Xuan has won the trust of many ministers, including Liu Xie, with his own talents.

is not like Xu Huang, who is just a subordinate under Yang Feng, even if he is the number one, but he is only someone else's general. If Xu Huang's identity was a subordinate general under Liu Xie, Yan Shao might not be able to move him, this is the difference.

Since he said that Zhong Xuan could not be moved, it was better to let him be the commander of this forbidden army.

Although the current Zhong Xuan is only a civil official, Yan Shao believes that there is no problem with his ability. What's more, he can bring enough trouble to Cao Cao and Yang Feng and others in this position, as for whether he will be given a nest by Cao Cao in the future, this is not something that Yan Shao needs to consider.

Anyway, it was impossible for Zhong Miao to go with him, and he couldn't kill Zhong Xuan in advance in order to prevent Cao Cao from getting this talent.

I have to say that Yan Shao's proposal really surprised many people, these people guessed that Yan Shao would propose a person, but they didn't expect to propose Zhong Xuan. Even Zhong Xuan himself looked at Yan Shao with some shock, not knowing why he proposed himself. After all, there is basically no intersection between the two.

As if noticing Zhong Xuan's gaze, Yan Shao looked back and gave him a smiling expression.

"Yuan Chang..." touched the beard on his chin, Yang Biao was also thinking about it.

He had really communicated with Yan Shao about this matter, but he hadn't talked about it on the issue of people, originally he thought that Yan Shao was planning to select one person from the pro-army around the Son of Heaven, and even simply let Huangfu Song or Zhu Jun serve as it, if these two people were these two people, they didn't need to worry about their ability at all, and they didn't need to worry about the lack of prestige.

After all, these two are the only famous generals in the Han Dynasty, and they are also the two people with the ultimate prestige in the court today.

To be reasonable, when they talked about the forbidden army before, they both thought that the position of commander would fall to them, and the difference was only to choose one of them. Although it is only 5,000 soldiers and horses, as the only soldiers and horses that the Han family can master, the two of them are full of interest, and they want to help the young son of heaven while they still have the spirit, so as to live up to their lifelong loyalty.

Who would have thought that Yan Shao would talk about it, and in the end, he actually talked about Zhong Xuan, which made the two of them a little dumbfounded.

The two exchanged glances with each other, and they both felt very surprised.

Huangfu Song's word is true, his uncle Huangfu Gui is a famous general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, one of the three Ming in Liangzhou, and his father Huangfu Festival once served as the Taishou of Yanmen County, and has been a border general for a long time. When Huangfu Song was young, he had a good poetry book and was familiar with bow horses. At first, he was investigated as filial piety and Maocai. For Langzhong, he moved to Baling and Linfen County, and resigned due to the death of his father. Later, the lieutenant Chen Fan and the general Dou Wu hired him as officials one after another, but they did not respond to the call. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty used the bus to recruit him as a squire and moved to the northern land as the Taishou.

And Zhu Jun did not have such a background, Zhu Jun's father died when he was a teenager, his mother used to sell and buy silk as a family business, Zhu Jun is famous for his filial piety to his mother. He is a good person, righteous and light on wealth, and the township respects him.

Zhou Gui, who was in the same county as Zhu Jun, had borrowed millions of dollars from the government to decorate his clothes when he was requisitioned before. Later, Zhou Gui's family was poor and could not be repaid, so Zhu Jun used his mother's silk to repay Zhou Gui's debts. Zhu Jun's mother was very resentful and blamed him for this. Zhu Jun comforted her with the truth that he was poor first and then rich. The length of the county is still deep, and Zhu Jun is surprised, and he is recommended to the county guard Wei Yi, so Zhu Jun began to serve in the county. Later, Yin Duan appointed him as the main secretary.

Later, this man named Yin Duan was assassinated by the state because of the failure of the levy, and he should be beheaded. Zhu Jun quietly went to Beijing and spent hundreds of gold to buy off the officials who presided over the chapter and changed the chapter of the assassin history, so Yin Duan had to lose as the left colonel. Yin Duan was overjoyed when he saw that his sins had been reduced, but he was puzzled in his heart, and he didn't know why his sins had been reduced. Zhu Jun has never mentioned it to anyone, and it can only be said that Zhu Jun is indeed a good subordinate.

I have to say that although Wang Yun got rid of Dong Zhuo, he also ruined the hope of the revival of the Han family. And the reason for this is because of Wang Yun's temperament. Wang Yun was originally the kind of person who was rigid and self-serving, and he was in power, so of course he didn't want to share it with others.

In history, after getting rid of Dong Zhuo, someone once persuaded Wang Yun and suggested that Huangfu Song should be sent to lead Dong Zhuo's old department and stay in Shaanxi County to pacify.

In fact, this is a pretty good proposal, and with the reputation of Huangfu Song, he is fully capable of taking those rebels into his own hands. However, Wang Yun rejected this proposal, probably because of his contempt for the Xiliang Army, but it was also possible that he didn't want anyone to share the rights with him equally.

The reason why Wang Yun was able to get rid of Dong Zhuo, under one person and above ten thousand, in addition to the credit of getting rid of Dong Zhuo, the most important point was Lu Bu's support.

It was precisely because of Lu Bu's soldiers and horses in hand that Wang Yun could act like this.

It's a pity that in the end, it was his character that made everything completely hopeless.

1111111 dividing line 1111111

In fact, Yan Shao really considered the problem of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, after arriving in Luoyang and rescuing the Son of Heaven and important ministers, Yan Shao was also a little surprised after learning the whereabouts of the two.

That's right, the Three Kingdoms period is indeed an era of heroes, and in such a troubled era, there is no shortage of so-called famous generals and strategists. Well, of course, we must first exclude people such as Hanoi's famous general Fang Yue, or the fierce general Pan Feng.

However, before the Three Kingdoms, or before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the three most famous generals in this period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty were Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi.

Of course, now there are only two left, and Lu Zhi's words, after Dong Zhuo usurped power, he left Luoyang and began to live in seclusion. Later, Yuan Shao captured Jizhou, and sent someone to worship Lu Zhi as a military advisor. It's a pity that Lu Zhi died of illness in the second year, and when he died, he specially instructed others to let his son dig a hole in the soil and bury him thinly, without a coffin, only a close-fitting single clothes.

In other words, among the three generals in the late Han Dynasty, only Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are left.

However, after thinking about it, in the end, Yan Shao did not choose these two people, but Zhong Xuan.

You know, Huangfu Song is his old boss. Not long after arriving in Luoyang, Yan Shao also went to visit and thank Huangfu Song for his promotion that year. It can be said that Yan Shao's initial road can go so smoothly, and it is not unrelated to Huangfu Song's promotion, even if all these years have passed, Yan Shao's heart cannot be grateful at all.

Even after learning about the forbidden army, those who knew about it felt that Huangfu Song had a better chance of winning, including Zhu Jun. Because the relationship between Yan Shao and Huangfu Song is indeed relatively close, the favor of the Yellow Turban Uprising alone is enough for Yan Shao to remember.

It's a pity...

These two men are not long gone...

Well, in fact, Yan Shao doesn't remember when these two people died, but there is one thing he remembers very clearly, that is, in history, when the emperor moved the capital to Xudu, and at the same time was in the hands of Cao Cao, these two people did not appear.

Considering that these two were loyal ministers with upright temperaments, Cao Cao's behavior at that time was so unsightly, it was impossible for them to act at all.

Especially Huangfu Song, he can be regarded as Cao Cao's old boss. If he stood up, Cao Cao would not have had any scruples at all, but there was no description of these two people during this time in history.

The only possibility is that these two people were dead at that time.

This possibility is not small, the two of them can be regarded as Rong Ma for a lifetime, and now they are about to enter the earth, and when they left Chang'an, they were tossed again, it is not impossible that such a situation will occur.

Although considering the problem of friendship, Yan Shao also hopes that Huangfu Song can live for a while longer, but unfortunately, many things are not decided by Yan Shao's hope.

And as a monarch, Yan Shao had to think more.

Since it is impossible for Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to live too long, then their successors need to be considered. The problem is that Yan Shao had already left at that time, and he couldn't lead this matter at all, since this was the case, it was better to let Zhong Yao go directly, so that there was no need to worry about things going wrong after the two died.

And...

Looking in the direction of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, Yan Shao arched his hand with a very respectful expression.

"In fact, Shao also considered the two old generals, after all, the two old generals have been fighting horses for half their lives and have rich experience, and Shao is even more regarded as the old department of the emperor Fu Boss, and he knows how capable the emperor Fu is. It's just that the two adults are still older after all, and the key to the matter of the forbidden army is better to hand it over to young and energetic people. And the two bosses can also be on the side, so isn't it a foolproof strategy? ”

Directly let Zhong Jiao, Yan Shao was actually not very relieved.

But with these two people on their side, it wouldn't be a big problem.

At the age of these two people, it is also competent to do such a thing.
