Guoheng perishes with weakness, and Duhan perishes with strength. This sentence sounds like touting the Han Dynasty, but it also expresses the helplessness and misery of the Han Dynasty when it fell. Before, Li Yi didn't understand why the Han Dynasty would perish if it was so strong, but now he understands that it is really not Cao Cao's pot. Just like when Wang Mang faced Liu Xiu in the past, sometimes, except for lamenting the impermanence of the world, there really seems to be no other way.

In the second year of the middle review, in mid-March, the Liangzhou rebels led by Bian Zhang defeated the Huqiang Captain Ling Hui, and played the banner of killing the eunuchs into Kou Sanfu. The so-called Sanfu, also known as Sanqin, is the three places around Chang'an: Jingzhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, and Right Fufeng.

That Zhang was not only Bian Yun, who was originally held hostage and then embraced as the leader, but another Liangzhou engaged in Han Yue, and also changed his name to Han Sui, completely drawing a line with the identity of officers and soldiers. No one knows why the two of them did this, but there is no doubt that under their leadership, the Liangzhou rebels have already had some tail-ending trends.

"Will the imperial court recall Yizhen Gong and let him sit in Chang'an?" Li Yi asked strangely when he heard this.

"Yes! Zhonglang took Dong Zhuo as his deputy. Wang Yun nodded when he heard this, and then sighed helplessly, "Alas, there are obviously Lu Gong and Zhu Jun, but unfortunately the Holy Lord doesn't seem to believe in them too much." ”

Yes, it was Wang Yun, he was released, but not because of the intercession of He Jin and others or for any other reason, but because the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong gave amnesty to the world again. After being released, Liu Hong did not let Wang Yunguan reinstate, and Wang Yun was also worried that staying in Luoyang would be retaliated by Zhang Rang, coupled with the persuasion of Yuan Kui and others, he finally fled to Bingzhou overnight to join Li Yilai.

Speaking of which, it seems that it has only been 2 or 3 months since the last amnesty, right? However, in this regard, Liu Hong was also very helpless, Liangzhou was in turmoil, and at the same time united the five buckets of rice in Hanzhong and Ba County, which was really difficult to calm down for a while. So in order to stabilize other places, in addition to amnesty to the world, Liu Hong didn't know what to do for a while.

I have to say that the imperial court's ignorance of the five buckets of rice in the past may be the biggest reason for the consequences now, but it is obviously a little late to say these things now.

Hearing this, Li Yi was silent, and only after a long time did he ask, "......Who is the person who took over from Yizhengong to guard Jizhou?"

"It's Wang Fen, one of the eight chefs." Wang Yun responded, with a look of satisfaction on his face. Cooks, can save people with money, in the past Emperor Huan period of the famous party disaster, the world's Qingliu scholars flaunted each other, among which Chen Fan, Dou Wu, Uncle Liu three people are called three gentlemen, and then there are eight Jun, eight Gu, eight and eight kitchens. They were all the most famous scholars at that time.

"Wang Fen, ......" Li Yi muttered when he heard this, he didn't have much impression of the name, after all, he was still young at that time, and he didn't have much interest in the politics of Emperor Huan's period. However, from this unimpressed name, Li Yi had a bad premonition.

"Zishi, the situation in Bingzhou is not very good now, so I hope you can return to Jinyang, you have a high reputation on Jinyang's side, and it will be more appropriate for you to come forward for many things." Li Yi looked at Wang Yun and said.

"Don't worry!" Wang Yun did not refuse when he heard this, because he also knew that only he was the most suitable person to come forward in this matter.

After Wang Yun left, Li Yi immediately summoned Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren, and rushed to Meiji with more than 100 cavalry, but he went to protect Wang Rou, the general of the Huns, to drink. During this time, almost every 3 or 5 days, he would go to Meiji to drink with Wang Rou, of course, every time he and Wang Rou would invite the Xiongnu Shan Yuqiangqu and the left and right Xian kings to a banquet together.

There is no way, because if Wang Rou invites Qiangqu and them every day, the purpose will inevitably be too obvious, and he has no choice but to invite Li Yi and invite someone else, he won't feel strange, right? However, even if Qiang Qu and the others guessed their thoughts, they could only continue. After all, in today's situation, they really can't afford to be careless.

Talk about two ends.

The Flying Cavalry Camp has now been expanded, and a new trap has been built not far away. Every day, countless people come to apply, and at the same time, countless people leave in despair every day. Although Li Yi asked Lu Bu and others to speed up, whether it was Lu Bu or Gao Shun, they did not mean to lower the standard by half a point. Because they know that what Li Yi wants is elite soldiers, elite soldiers who can conquer the world and win all battles!

Today, there was still a long queue, most of them concentrated in front of the Flying Cavalry Battalion, and a few gathered on the side of the trapping camp. I have to say that in the hearts of the vast majority of people, cavalry is still more popular than infantry. Of course, Li Yi used cavalry to fight that terrifying record, which is also one of the reasons why more people choose the flying cavalry battalion.

And among these people in line was a man, his eyes kept looking at the two places of the trapping camp and the flying horse camp, and kept muttering about the selection conditions and benefits of the two military camps.

"Alas...... It doesn't seem like it's so easy to get chosen. But what if you don't start here? The man thought to himself. But if you don't get selected, you won't have any extra food at home...... Alas, really, I would have stayed in Ruoyang if I had known! ”

Just thinking about it, a voice came to my ear, "Name, age, origin, what will you do?!" The man looked up, but he didn't know when, he had followed the crowd to the recruiting place of the Flying Cavalry Battalion.

"My name is Qin Yilu, 23 years old, I am from the clouds, I can ride a horse and shoot arrows." Qin Yilu said quickly when he heard this.

"That's all?" The little soldier in the recruiting office glanced up at Qin Yilu, then lowered his head and said, "Your physique is too poor, next!" ”

Riding horses and archery, if in Jizhou, Yanzhou and other places, maybe only the children of the family will, if ordinary people understand this, it is easy to mix a little fame in the army. It's just that this is a state! At least 9 out of 10 can shoot arrows, 6 can ride horses, and 4 are themselves helping people raise horses. So this kind of good at this here, really doesn't have any advantages. In this way, it can only be observed from the point of view of the physique.

There may be people who are talented, such as the legendary Li Yuanba, or the current Li Yi and Lu Bu, but the vast majority of people's physical fitness can be directly watched through the naked eye. Obviously, Qin Yilu belonged to the unqualified type in the eyes of that little soldier.

"Wait! Wait a minute! Qin Yilu hurriedly shouted when he heard this, and then he saw that the little soldier frowned suddenly, seeing this, Qin Yilu hurriedly said, "I can still read!" Right! I'm literate! I've been in Ruoyang before! ”

"Really?!" The little soldier looked at Qin Yilu in shock when he heard this, his expression was full of disbelief, after all, in this era, literacy has never been a skill that ordinary people can have. And I have been in Luoyang...... It's also quite an eye-catching resume. Because of the inconvenient transportation in ancient times, anyone who traveled from south to north had to have considerable ability, compared to ordinary people.

"Oh? Literate? Come, what do you say these words? Hearing the commotion here, a person who looked like a Shangguan on the other side came over and handed over a piece of wooden slip and asked.

"Li Ergou, 18 years old, from Wuyuan County, Wuyuan County......" Qin Yilu hurriedly said when he heard this.

"Ha~ Do you really know how to read? If you know how to read, why do you want to be a soldier? Seeing this, the Shangguan smiled and said. This person is the captain of a special unit of the Flying Cavalry Battalion, and it is said that it is special, but in fact, it is a special unit belonging to Xiahoulan.

Since Xiahoulan followed Zhao Yun to join Li Yi, because of his mediocre martial arts, riding and archery skills are also average, Li Yi finally let him lead a small team of about 20 people alone, this team is basically not good at fighting or anything, but it has a characteristic, they are all literate and articulate. Basically, recruiting records, and going to various places to give orders or report something, they are all doing it. Sometimes, for example, when Li Yi led the army to inspect various places, he would also bring a few soldiers from this army.

"Go back to Shangguan, because although the villain is literate, he doesn't have any literary talents......" Qin Yilu hurriedly replied when he heard this. If there was a literary talent, then he would have gone to the local mansion to recommend himself, no matter how bad he was to help people write letters or something, it would be enough to have no worries about food and clothing.

"That's right." The Wu Commander nodded when he heard this, and then took a few more words of Qin Yilu and registered his name. "You're qualified, these are bounties, take them, remember to report tomorrow." Wu Chang casually grabbed about 100 yuan from the box on the side and handed it to Qin Yilu, and nodded at him at the same time.

This is stipulated by Li Yi, and it is called a bounty! In this era, a person who goes to a restaurant for a meal is generally only 30 yuan, and a stone beam of rice is only 400 yuan. It's not a lot of money, it's a lot less, but it is a bounty that undoubtedly makes those who have just joined the Flying Cavalry Camp more hopeful for the future. By the way, there is a bounty of 200 on the Trap Camp, but the requirements over there are much higher than those of the Flying Cavalry Battalion.

After taking the money, Qin Yilu quickly ran towards Manbo County, and his excited expression was not concealed at all, but in this regard, the people around him did not show disdain, but showed envy. After all, isn't that what the army is for?!

Not long after, Qin Yilu came to the best restaurant in Manbo County with his money, and after eating and drinking in it, when he was leaving, he suddenly remembered something, "Shopkeeper, get me some side dishes, huh...... Be cheap. ”

After that, he left the restaurant with the side dishes and returned to the temporary residence. As soon as he pushed the door, he shouted excitedly, "Yue'er, I'm back!" ”

"How's it going, gentleman? Did it work? A crisp voice rang out in the room, and the tone was quite agitated. Then, a woman about 16 years old trotted out, but it was Du Yue, Qin Yilu's wife. She is very beautiful, but there is a trace of sorrow between her eyebrows.

"Of course, don't look at who the husband is?! Come, this is for my husband to buy with a bounty, let's eat it~" Qin Yilu smiled proudly, and at the same time handed over the cheap side dishes bought from the restaurant.

"That's good, that's good......" Du Yue muttered happily when she heard this, and at the same time took the side dishes and put them on the table, and couldn't wait to enjoy this delicious taste that she hadn't tasted for a long time, but as soon as she sat down, Du Yue seemed to remember something, looked at Qin Yilu strangely and asked, "Doesn't the gentleman eat it?" ”

"Haha~ The Flying Cavalry Camp is in charge of the rice, I've already finished eating over there~" Qin Yilu laughed.

Hearing this, Du Yue did not doubt him, because the welfare of the Flying Cavalry Camp was so good, it had already spread throughout the whole state. Immediately, Du Yue ate one bite at a time, each bite was so slow, so meticulous, every bite, chewed until the food was completely gone, and then swallowed it.

She and Qin Yilu are childhood sweethearts, and they have been married to babies since they were children. It's just that after getting married, Qin Yilu didn't want to farm at home, so he took Du Yue to Luoyang. Along the way, I don't know how much hardship I have suffered, but Du Yue has never complained.

After that, Qin Yilu, who had been in Luoyang for a period of time, fled back to Yunzhong because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but at that time, the cultivated land at home had already been handed over to others by the landlord because of the death of his parents. Although Du Yue persuaded Qin Yilu to find a landlord to find a piece of land to continue farming, it was a pity that Qin Yilu, who had been a city gate guard in Luoyang for a while, could do these rough jobs? Until now, it was really because there was almost no surplus food at home, and it happened to be in time for the Flying Cavalry Battalion and the trapping camp to recruit troops, that he was so grinded by Qin Yilu that he ran to try his luck.

Du Yue was constantly eating over there, but Qin Yilu was thinking about how to soar, although the treatment of the flying cavalry camp was very good, but he had already seen the prosperity of Luoyang, where would he be satisfied? You must know that although the city gate guards are not high, they have a lot of gray income.

Just thinking about it, his eyes fell on Du Yue's body again, although he was only 16 years old, his delicate figure was ......

In April, in the middle of Montenegro.

"General Chu, I think the time has come!" Zhang Niujiao said excitedly, "Now that Liangzhou is in chaos, tens of thousands of cavalry Kou Sanfu, and Huangfu Song has been transferred to Chang'an. When we can't do anything at this time, but when?! ”

"General Zhang, I think we should wait a little longer, after all, Bingzhou is not far from our side......" Chu Yan said hesitantly when she heard this.

Zhang Niujiao is the leader of the remnants of a Yellow Turban in Jizhou, while Chu Yan is the leader of a rebellious army that grew in the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Not long ago, under the persuasion of Zhang Ning, the two troops merged into one, and at Chu Yan's initiative, Zhang Niujiao was the leader. This result made Zhang Niujiao respect Chu Yan very much, and he would discuss anything with him.

"What General Chu said is very reasonable, but Li Yi is still recruiting troops now, and the only one who can really fight is the original Duliao battalion cavalry. If he really kills us, as Huang Jun said, if we hide directly in the Black Mountain, what can he do with us? Zhang Niujiao explained.

"And, don't forget the Hu people of Baibo Valley and Meiji that Zhang Jun mentioned earlier." Zhang Niujiao sneered, "Once they get into trouble, does General Chu think that Li Yi still has the kung fu to pay attention to us?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Yan didn't respond, although he still felt that it was not good to start something like this, but as Zhang Niujiao said, if the Yellow Turban Army in Baibo Valley and the Hu people in Meiji also rebelled, would Li Yi have time to pay attention to them? Apparently impossible! It is difficult for Li Yi to even keep the state!

Of course, the most important thing is that they have the capital to protect themselves! The stretch of Montenegro is their best fortress. Even if Li Yi led 100,000 iron horsemen to rush here, there would be no way to deal with them.

Seeing this, Zhang Niujiao was overjoyed, "Since General Chu agrees, then we will do a big job!" ”

At the same time, Xihe County, Jinan County, Le'an County, Runan County, many people began to become ready to move after hearing the news from Liangzhou.

Pingyu County, Runan County, Yuzhou.

"Although there are many people in the rest of the Yellow Turbans, it will not be a big deal after all, so Yu Fuluo needs to face Li Yi directly, and I am afraid he may not be able to win......" Zhang Ning muttered to himself after listening to Huang Da's report, "It seems that I still have to go to Liangzhou......"

Saying that, she couldn't help but shake her head again, "But that Beigong Boyu is not a smart person, although the Wudou Rice Dao is closer to Liangzhou, how can it compare to the Yellow Turban Army in the past?" Well...... Maybe it's a good idea to support someone to replace Beigong Boyu......"

Mid-April, Manber County.

"It's true?!" Li Yi looked at Zhao Feng and Yan Lei in front of him, and asked dumbfounded.

"How dare we deceive you? To tell you the truth, after hearing the news, the two of us immediately led our clansmen to flee to Bingzhou, hoping that the prince would take us in. Yan Lei smiled bitterly.

In the past, Li Yi once invited them to go to Bingzhou when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, but at that time they refused, because they felt that with the strength of the imperial court, it was not trivial to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion? And they who have fought with the Yellow Turban Army don't think how strong the Yellow Turban Army is.

It turned out that they were not wrong, but they guessed the result, but they did not guess the continuation. Now Zhang Niujiao's incident made them panic, not because of how strong Zhang Niujiao's side was, but because if they kept making trouble like this, how would they stay in Jizhou? Because according to this trend, even if the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro is pacified, will there be remnants of the Yellow Turbans in other places?

"Uncle said that it was an honor for you and the head of the Zhao family to be able to defect to righteousness." Li Yi laughed when he heard this, although there was no smile in the laughter. Li Yi didn't stay polite with them for too long, but quickly sent someone to find a place to settle the two families.

Speaking of which, there were not many people from the Zhao family and the Yan family who came this time, after all, not all of them were willing to leave Jizhou with them and go to Bingzhou, so all of them added up to only a few hundred. Although there are still a lot, for Li Yi now, even he doesn't need to come forward to settle them.

And after Yan Lei and Zhao Feng left, Li Yi immediately summoned Lu Bu and Gao Shun to inquire about the situation of their two battalions.

"Back to the lord, the flying cavalry battalion is now full, but except for about 4,200 old people, the rest are all recruits, and they can't go to the battlefield at all." Lu Bu said respectfully when he heard this.

Yes, the original 5,000-degree Liao camp is now only 4,200 people left, among whom some died in battle, some were seriously injured and had to quit, and some chose to leave after receiving rewards, and more than 100 people were transferred by Li Yi to the trapping camp to help bring new recruits. The losses were worse than they might seem, but if you think about the wars they fought in, it seemed ...... Their casualties are really small. You must know that the thousand-man cavalry commanded by Cao Cao had a battle loss ratio of more than half.

"Lord, the trapped camp can't participate in the war for the time being!" Gao Shun's answer was still concise and to the point, of course, Li Yi's inquiry about Gao Shun was just by the way. After all, the entire trapping camp has just been formed, how can it be on the battlefield? Of course, if it was just an ordinary infantry unit, it would still be qualified, but that kind of troops would be mobilized from other counties.

"Hurry up and train! I have a bad feeling that there may be more rebellions in the future! Li Yi said in an impatient tone, but after a pause, he changed his words again, "Forget it, the training intensity is too big now, don't get injured because of training at that time." ”

As he spoke, Li Yi waved his hand and signaled that Lu Bu and Gao Shun could leave. Seeing this, the two of them left in a hurry, but they didn't dare to ask more. They could see that Li Yi was very irritable at this time, but unfortunately they didn't know how to comfort Li Yi. And to be honest, they also felt that Li Yi seemed to be a little too worried, at least in their opinion, what kind of bull horn is not a climate at all, even if he has more cattle than Zhang Jiao.

However, it is obvious that Li Yi is not worried about the horns at all, but Chu Yan under his command. Because this Chu Yan is in Li Yi's memory, she is even better than Zhang Jiao. Otherwise, how could they still be thriving when the heroes were competing for hegemony at the end of the Han Dynasty?

Moreover, compared to Chu Yan, Li Yi is most worried about Meiji's side, "I hope those Hu people can be honest...... Li Yi thought in his heart. It's a pity that he can't do too much, because now in Li Yi's opinion, they have already done too much, and if they go further, maybe those Hu people will have to rebel if they don't rebel.

End of April.

Luoyang, above the court.

"It's the other way around...... It's the other way around...... These Diao Min ......" Liu Hong looked at Jian Ce in his hand tremblingly, and was even so angry that he couldn't say anything. After a long while, he slammed the table and roared, "This is the so-called world is too peaceful?!" Quell the chaos! Quell the chaos! Why is the world still so chaotic?! ”

Hearing this, everyone was silent, even Zhang Rang and the others kept their mouths tightly closed, for fear that as soon as they spoke, they would attract Liu Hong's anger.

"Pass the order! Let the counties of Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Yuzhou all send troops to quell the rebellion immediately! Tell them that they can't destroy these people, come and see them! Liu Hong yelled angrily.

After speaking, Liu Hong said quickly, "In addition, tell Li Yi that you must show me those Hu people!" If those Hu people dare to make trouble! I'm the only one who asks! ”

"Nuo......" Everyone hurriedly responded when they heard this, but they didn't dare to say a word.
