Chapter 619: Exoneration
Liu Lan was worried, because the Montenegrin army had already withdrawn and fled back to the Taihang Mountains, while Cao Cao was stationed in Ye County, and the vigorous Jizhou assassin Wang Fen's rebellion ended in a tiger-like way, but the turmoil in the world did not stop because of this, but intensified, and the Baibo army, which had been stopped for half a year, reinvigorated the army, and the Qing and Xu yellow scarves revived, but at this time, Jizhou Yecheng did not have the slightest feeling of mountain rain coming, but it was a song and dance.
Wiped out Jizhou Mu Wang Fen, rescued the besieged Son of Heaven, immediately, the Son of Heaven ordered, brought out countless wines, slaughtered chickens and sheep, rewarded the three armies, the three armies inspired, thunderous, and enjoyed their moment of victory.
At this time, in the official residence of the Son of Heaven, all the civil and military officials gathered together to hold a grand celebration, and even the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions were fortunate to enter, but such a victory belonged to the Xiyuan Army, but not to Liu Lan and his dragoon army, no one was fortunate enough to enter the wine pond meat forest, even Liu Lan did not enter the noisy Son of Heaven Mansion.
At this time, the Son of Heaven was full of spring, not because he was saved, but because this battle was the victory of the Xiyuan Army in the final analysis, he enjoyed the repeated praise of the ministers, and enjoyed the joy of Cao Cao returning all the qiē to his head, but he appreciated Cao Cao's victory at this time without arrogance or discouragement.
How could the Spirit Emperor not see the contributions he had made? led 10,000 Xiyuan troops, broke 30,000 Jizhou troops, and killed nearly half of the enemy, while the Xiyuan army lost less than 1,000 people, and did not invite credit for self-appreciation, such a young man, Emperor Ling's heartfelt appreciation, like his father, can be entrusted with important tasks.
The Son of Heaven inadvertently glanced at the Taiwei Cao Song on the side, and the latter was staring at Cao Cao, the son of Cao Cao, who was not far away, and could be said to be one of the highlights of the day. When the Son of Heaven was covered with dust, he led 10,000 Xiyuan troops out of Luoyang and broke Wang Fen. Saving the Son of Heaven is a great contribution. made Cao Song raise his eyebrows.
Why does the Tai Lieutenant of the head of the Three Princes have such an idea, in fact, he is still the Tai Lieutenant who bought it with money, in the words of the minister, that is, "Jiuqing was originally the duty, because Zang bought a Tai Lieutenant", this is an extremely sarcastic sentence, but Cao Song at this time can laugh at it, maybe he really does not match the Tai Lieutenant, but he believes that his son. In the future, they will be convinced. Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, in fact, Cao Song, who was middle-aged and had a son, didn't like this son very much at first, because Cao Cao was young and vigorous, and he was not filial piety but loved to dance with guns and sticks, and often caused him a lot of trouble. But all of them have changed since Lu Bohao raised filial piety for Cao Cao, and it is precisely because of this change, especially after becoming a family, that Cao Song is convinced.
There may be three people in this world who know, think, and foresee Cao Cao's future achievements, and his father is one of them.
"Ministers, meritorious soldiers!"
The Son of Heaven got up. The moment the wine bottle was raised, the building instantly became silent, and everyone held their breath and listened to the voice of the Son of Heaven resounding in the building: "This battle has played the military might of the West Garden Army and shocked the world's Xiaoxiao. But while we enjoy the joy of victory, we cannot forget the heroic souls who died in battle, here. I pay tribute to the heroic souls who died in battle, and may they rest in peace in the heavenly spirits. At the same time, their bereavement and funeral should be implemented as much as possible!! ”
Speaking of which. Emperor Ling's voice paused, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he looked at the ministers who were in his hands: "Of course, there are rewards from meritorious soldiers!! This is a naked bribe, but all the soldiers of the Xiyuan Army were thunderous at this moment, but a discordant voice sounded at this time: "Qi Qi Son of Heaven, if this battle is about military merits, the battle of Jizhou Shepherd Wang Fen, Liu De'an, and the dragoon who captured the enemy's battle flag!" ”
Everyone turned their eyes to Cao Cao at this moment, but more people's eyes were on Cao Song, this is the son you are proud of? Silly son, right? Cao Song's old face was as red as an apple, there had never been such a moment, he felt so ashamed in front of everyone, and the feeling of shame made him angry, but when he saw his son who was kneeling alone on the ground at the moment, his heart was soft, and his eyes were red.
Mengde, why are you so bothered, why do you still push out the credit you have received? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Son of Heaven is deliberately obscuring Liu Lan, but why do you still have to fight for him, is this qiē just because of the righteousness of your buddy?
"No merit, this battle Xiyuan Army and the Dragoon Army work together, and break the Jizhou Army, the Dragoon Army is a great contribution, the minister does not dare to deceive, let alone dare to conceal Liu De'an's heart for the country, Liu Dean led the Dragoon Army to capture the flag, which can be called the first in this battle, to reward, to reward Liu Lan first, not so difficult to appease the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies!"
"yes." At this moment, in the official residence of the Son of Heaven in Jizhou, there is only Jian Shuo who can ask for Liu Lan's life like Cao Cao, and only Jian Shuo can stand up, and say respectfully: "Liu Lan was wronged and killed Zuo Feng's thief in anger, and after being wanted, he was still not afraid of hardships and dangers, and came to Jizhou Qinwang, such a fist, even if the Son of Heaven is not rewarded, he should be credited with his guilt and clear his wrongs......"
"This is wrong, Liu De'an is lawless, and he killed the Jiangyi County Order in anger, in a word, the crime is greater than the merit, such a martial artist, if he is not punished, how to police the world!" Everyone saw that the speaker was none other than He Miao, the newly appointed chariot general.
However, as soon as he appeared, the middle-aged fat man on the side, the hussar general, and the Marquis Dong Zhong also stepped out: "The sin is greater than the merit? The merit of saving the driver is greater than the fault of the killing order, He Miao, what is your intention!! Dong Chong's voice was full of violentness, shocking the audience, Jian Shuo gratefully forgot Dong Chong, who stepped forward at the critical moment, but Dong Chong did not say anything, looking at the nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, it was completely a look of impartiality, but anyone also understood in their hearts that this was the battle between relatives, the open and secret struggle between the queen mother and the queen, or the continuation of the battle for the storage position.
He Miao was panicked, Dong Chong occupied the righteousness, and made him speechless in the name of saving the driver, what can he refute, the merit of saving the driver is not as good as killing the order, isn't this equivalent to saying that the life of your son of heaven is not as good as the life of Zuo Feng, a small county order, isn't this just looking for death? He Miao didn't dare, so he could only retreat, and after this trouble, the incident had already changed from Cao Cao's request for credit for Liu Lan to whether Liu Lan was guilty or innocent, but judging from the current situation, several major military minds were in favor of Liu Lan's merits more than faults, except for the opposing views of the general of the Che Cavalry, which made it difficult for the Son of Heaven to do, and between hesitations, he didn't want to even stand up and support Liu Lan even the Taiwei Cao Song, who had been silent, and in the face of one-sided appeals, Emperor Ling couldn't pardon even if he didn't want to.
