In July 177 AD, Sikong Liu Yi resigned, and Weiwei Chen Qiu was promoted to Sikong. Just this month, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty personally wrote 50 chapters of the "Huangxi Chapter", and recruited some people who could write articles, wrote well, and wrote beautifully, and placed their compilation under the Hongdu Gate; The emperor first began to recruit doormen, this move has a leading role, and soon some people will follow suit, such as the servant in the sacrificial wine Lesong, Jia Hu and others also recruited many people, the so-called people on a hundred, all kinds of people, among these people they recruited, there is no lack of eloquent people, whiskers and horses, with three inches of incorruptible tongue, where the emperor is extremely capable of tongue skills, what is said of course the emperor is not disgusted, but also very useful, the emperor is happy, the emperor will give them an official seat.

Ah, dare to love the Han Dynasty In this era, you don't need to go to Beijing to get an official position, and the way to get it is also very easy, that is, your language function is relatively powerful, you can speak and understand the Tao will fool the emperor, flicker happy, the official will be in hand, and there is no probationary period, what a good thing, Guangzong and ancestors don't have to work so hard.

Liu Hong, surrounded by these people all day long, soon forgot his identity as the emperor, the emperor's duties were not performed very well, and the ancestral temple had not been incense for a long time...... As the executive chairman of Dahan Company at this time, Liu Hong's enterprising attitude made many courtiers anxious, and if this continues, the company will be in danger of going out of business.

Cai Yong, who really couldn't stand it, wrote a letter to the emperor, saying that the chairman should focus on the company's affairs, everyone depends on you for food, and you shouldn't give people who don't have a little credit to rely on fooling you with kung fu. I don't know if Cai Dacai's article is well written, or Liu Hong himself feels that this approach is not quite correct, anyway, after Liu Hong read Cai Yong's letter, he demoted the gang of ruffians who started by "hype" some time ago, and the original prince will be the chief and lieutenant, and also said that in October, I will personally welcome the northern suburbs and perform the gift of Biyong.

Seeing that the emperor began to listen to the opinions of the ministers, someone soon took the hot iron and said to Liu Hongjin: Long live the respect, this Xianbei, harasses my Han every year, invades my frontier every year, and plunders every New Year's festival or natural and man-made disasters...... All kinds of viciousness, full of evil, it should be time to give them some color, otherwise these traitors will think that my big man is easy to bully! After listening to the words of Xia Yu, the captain of Wuhuan, Tian Yan, the captain of Huqiang, Wang Fu, and others, Liu Hong felt that his words were reasonable, and the twists and turns of this Xianbei invasion were often inspected, and it was also very infuriating to take advantage of natural and man-made disasters, so Liu Hong decided to send troops to fight...... Of course, there were also those who disagreed, such as Cai Yong and Cai Dacaizi, but Liu Hong, who had already made a decision, did not listen.

The decision was made, and the battle plan was: the Han army was divided into three routes: Xia Yu set off from Gaoliu County, Dai County; made the Xiongnu Zhonglang chase Zang Min and the Southern Xiongnu Tu Teruo's corpse from Yanmen County; Feng Tian Yan is the general of Poxian Bei Zhonglang, starting from Yunzhong County; There are more than 10,000 cavalry on each of the three roads, and they have been out of the fortress for more than 2,000 miles to defeat Xianbei!

Based on the reports of the scouts and the operational reconnaissance reports collected by all parties, the Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai also made a response plan, and divided the troops into three divisions: eastern, central, and western to meet the three Han armies.

This is actually a close battle, three roads against three roads, the so-called narrow road meets the brave wins, but it turns out that the three roads of Xianbei are all brave, because they have all won! It stands to reason that the three ways of people, according to the narrow road of the brave wins, the probability of the three roads of the brave should also be about 30 percent, but probability events may or may not happen, relying on probability events to deduce the victory rate of the war is unreliable.

Not only did the three-way army fail to win all the way, but they were all defeated miserably, all the grain and grass were lost, and the generals only brought a dozen people to protect him to fight out of the encirclement, and rushed back with their heads in their arms.

It did not achieve the war effect expected by Liu Hong, but it was very humiliating, the prestige of the Han Dynasty was also lost, the emperor was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. When Xia Yu, Zang Min, and Tian Yan had just fled back to China, they were immediately sent to prison. Later, the three of them paid for their lives, and they barely left a life, but they lost their officials and became ordinary people!

After dismissing the three generals who directly implemented the battle plan, Liu Hong was still angry, and in November, he asked Tai Lieutenant Liu Kuan and Sikong Chen Qiu to return to their hometown; I have to think about making money, because there is not much money in the treasury in the first place, and this expedition has cost a lot, so Liu Hong issued an edict again: Prisoners who have not yet been sentenced to death should pay money to offset their crimes!

On December 3, Taichang Meng Yu was promoted to lieutenant. On the 29th, Situ Yang Ci was dismissed; Too often Chen Tan was promoted to Sikong. Anyway, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as a loyal minister of the imperial court, the three dukes were often replaced, and readers were accustomed to it, as for the reason, it was not recorded in the book, or a few strokes, in a word, it was a common occurrence to look unpleasant or offend the eunuch or the emperor was unhappy. This month, Wang Min, the servant of Yong'an, was imprisoned and died.

Let's talk about Xianbei, in the past, it was just harassment and aggression, and if there was no food, I went to rob it, and the expenses needed for the New Year's festival were also taken by the neighbors, but I never confronted the Han Dynasty army head-on, and I don't know the roots; This time the defeat of the Han army made them completely carried away, it turned out that the Han Dynasty army was just empty skins, paper tigers, and there was nothing to fear. So, in December, Xianbei invaded Liaoxi County on a large scale, this time they were determined to win, according to the investigation, Liaoxi County's Taishou Zhao Bao had just taken office, and was currently sending someone to pick up his mother and wife to reunite with Liaoxi County. Therefore, Xianbei immediately sent a large number of spy reconnaissance troops to Liucheng, about 45 kilometers west of Zhiyangle County, Liaoxi County, to arrest all of them who were on the way. When Zhao Bao led 20,000 cavalry out of the city to fight against the Xianbei army, he saw that a person from the opponent's camp came out, and Zhao Bao looked at it, it was his old mother! Zhao Bao suddenly fell into a predicament, and for a long time, he could only shout from afar: he said that he could not abolish his public office for personal reasons, and asked his mother for forgiveness; Zhao Bao's mother also understood the righteousness, and shouted from afar: "Everyone has a life, loyalty and righteousness must not be lost, and children should be encouraged", what a great mother.

Xianbei originally wanted to use this trick to surrender the soldiers without a fight, but they didn't expect this result, and they were angry and tore up the ticket and killed all the family members of Zhao Taishou. Seeing his relatives being killed one by one in front of him, Mrs. Zhao swore to take revenge, and the bottom was also deeply inspired to see this scene, and they were filled with righteous indignation and rushed forward desperately, so the Han army was like a chicken blood, brave, and defeated Xianbei, Zhao Bao snatched back the bodies of his mother and wife, and asked for resignation and burial. Emperor Ling agreed, and sent people to mourn and condole, and also named Zhao Bao as the Marquis. After sealing the marquis, just as he was about to reuse Zhao Bao, he never thought that Zhao Bao would say such a thing in front of his mother's grave: "Eating Lu and taking refuge, disloyalty; Killing one's mother and being righteous is unfilial! How can a disloyal and unfilial person like me still have a face to stand between heaven and earth" In front of his mother's grave, Zhao Bao vomited blood and died.
