Chapter 81: Five Days and Six Cities (8)

Luoyang, above the palace hall.

Liu Hong sat on the couch, and countless civil and military officials below knelt on both sides.

"Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei wrote to me, and after Liu Fan arrived at Changshe, he attacked the main force of Yingchuan Yellow Turban with fire, and Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei went out of the city to cater to it and broke it. The next day, Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei prepared to exterminate the Yellow Turbans, but they were stopped by Liu Fan and killed Huangfu Song's other subordinates on the spot. The reason is that the 50,000 Yellow Turbans have already surrendered to Liu Fan, and Huangfu Song's other Sima concealed it and did not report it. Afterwards, Liu Fan stayed in Yingchuan to pacify the Yingchuan Yellow Turban, while Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei went to Pingding Runan and Chen Guo to the Yellow Turban. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think? Liu Hong looked around at the ministers below and said slowly.

Since the Yellow Turban Uprising, Liu Hong has suspended the sale of official titles, although he eats, drinks and has fun as usual, but he will pay attention to national affairs, after all, the power of the Yellow Turban at the beginning made Liu Hong very afraid.

It's just that Liu Hong seems to be a bit strong and capable.

"Your Majesty." A scribe in his forties in the back row came out to salute Liu Hong, and then said: "Captain Huben relieved the siege of Changshe, and the first merit is also." However, the Yellow Turban has surrendered, but the left and right Zhonglang generals will attack and surrender the Yellow Turban, which is also their fault. Although the person who concealed it is dead, it is inevitable that the left and right Zhonglang will have some responsibility for dereliction of duty. ”

This person's name is Huang Wan, a native of Jiangxia, Jingzhou, and when he was seven years old, he said to Huang Qiong, "After the eclipse, it is like the beginning of the moon".

Huang Wan was a genius of the famous Beijing master when he was a teenager, because his grandfather Huang Qiong was Situ at the time, Huang Wan was worshiped as a boy as the grandson of the third prince, but the young Huang Wan was ill and did not take office.

At that time, Sikong Sheng Yun was ill, Huang Qiong ordered Huang Wan to go to greet him, and it happened that a copy of the barbarian matter in Jiangxia County was delivered to Sikong Mansion, so Sheng Yun casually teased Huang Wan and said: "In Jiangxia, there are too many barbarians and too few scholars. ”

Sheng Yun's original intention was just to tease Huang Wan, but he didn't expect Huang Wan to reply with his hand: "The barbarians are chaotic in China, and the responsibility is in the sky." ”

After speaking, he brushed his sleeves away, and Sheng Yun was greatly surprised.

Later, Huang Wan, who was only in his twenties, was promoted to the rank of general with five senses, and was courteous to his relative Chen Fan at the time. Because he was too outstanding, Huang Wan was framed as a friend, he was removed from office, and he was imprisoned.

Until the sixth year of Guanghe, Taiwei Yang Ci recommended Huang Wan to have the talent to rule the troubled times, and the imperial court recruited Huang Wan as a speaker, and Huang Wan had been imprisoned for nearly 20 years at that time.

From the twenties to the forties, the best years of life were missed like this, which makes people sigh.

Huang Wan was both civil and military, and after being recommended as a councilor, he was promoted to the history of Qingzhou and moved to serve. At the beginning of the middle peace, out of the right to support the wind, the worship will be made Daqin, Shaofu, and Taifu. He is also the pastor of Yuzhou. When the thief Lu Liang was in ruins, Huang Wan begged to level it, and his prestige was shocked. Political achievements are the best in the world. After experiencing the ups and downs of the Huan Sea, Huang Wan was arrested and died in prison by Li Dao and Guo Yan after Dong Zhuo's rebellion.

"You are only a petty official of 600 stones, how can you be qualified to discuss the major affairs of the court, if you are not the grandson, you are not qualified to go to the palace to listen to the words of heaven." He Jin, the general at the front, was quite disdainful of Huang Wan, and then saluted Liu Hong: "Your Majesty, what is the intention of Captain Huben knowing that Huang Turban is guilty of rebellion, but he allows him to surrender. Rebels should be killed without mercy, so that they can play a role in setting an example. ”

Liu Fan was recommended by Yang Ci, He Jin has a small belly, and he has always been at odds with Yang Ci, so he is not even happy to look at Liu Fan.

"The society is in turmoil, the country is ashamed, Gaozu was only a pavilion chief back then, but he was able to shoulder the burden of the world and save the people of Li. People in the world say that the world is about affairs, and I Huang Ziyan is the arguer, who eats the king's fortune and shares worries for the king, why can't I discuss national affairs? Huang Wan retorted to He Jin.

Huang Wan was not even afraid of Sheng Yun when he was a teenager, and he dared to collide with Dong Zhuo when he was in dictatorship, he was not the kind of person who bent his waist for five buckets of rice, of course he would refute He Jin.

"Huang Wan, do you have dignity or humility?" He Jin said angrily, Yang Ci, the old immortal who recommended him, has no one who can be used by me He Jin.

"Although Captain Tiger Ben is brave, he has some women's kindness, and the heavy task of exterminating the Yellow Turban is really not suitable for him." At this time, Sikong Zhang Wen also came out and said.

Zhang Wen's words are not as tricky as He Jin, but they have a profound meaning.

Zhang Wen spent money to become a boss, although he was sensitive to things and cautious in what he said. But he is good at dancing with long sleeves and likes to cater to the general trend.

Zhang Wen and He Jin took the lead, and several doctors came out to impeach Liu Fan.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Heaps out of the shore, and the flow will be turbulent. Walk above man, and man will not.

Liu Fanqi was victorious, if he made another great contribution, wouldn't he let him ride on his head. Yes, everyone is jealous.

"Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, how can you not know people? When Your Majesty sent an envoy to Yingchuan to observe, and when the envoy returned to give a message, Your Majesty knew everything about Captain Huben. At the right time, Zhang Rang spoke.

At this time, Liu Hong was also the most worried.

"What Zhang Changshi said is extremely true!" Liu Hongxi said with a smile.

It's not just because Zhang Rang spoke reasonably, a discerning praise like a torch, and the sycophant made Liu Hong happy.

Zhang Rang's ability to call for wind and rain in the political arena of the Eastern Han Dynasty has its own merits. His size is excellent, not offending Liu Hong's majesty, but also showing his means.

Yingchuan, Xiangcheng.

In the afternoon, Guan Yu led 2,000 cavalry to Xiangcheng first.

When the Yellow Turban soldiers in Xiangcheng found out about the situation, they hurriedly closed the four gates.

"How can Yingyang have so many cavalry?" A yellow turban leader said puzzled.

"I see that these Han cavalry are coming from the west, could it be that Jiaxian has been lost?"

"It's only been less than a day, and the officers and soldiers have broken through Jiaxian and come to Xiangcheng, is Jiaxian County a paper paste?"

"If Jiaxian County is breached, Qu Shuai is more than lucky, so it is better for us to open the city and flee for our lives."

"Run? How to escape? The cavalry of the officers and soldiers was already blocked outside the city, and even if they rode horses, they might not be able to escape. ”

There is no real principal in Xiangcheng Yellow Turban, like ants on a hot pot. There is simply no decision to solve the current crisis.

I have always been keen on the attack and defense of the city, and there are pros and cons. But for yellow scarves, the harm outweighs the good, because they can't afford to consume it.

The Yellow Turbans of Xiangcheng couldn't find a way to deal with it, so they had to send more Yellow Turbans to the city tower, intending to defend Xiangcheng to the death.

The Yellow Turban hoped that his guess was wrong, and the officers and soldiers could not capture Jiaxian, so they sent cavalry to bypass Jiaxian and come to Xiangcheng, which was just a bluff.

Two hours later, when the sun was about to set, 50,000 yellow scarves and yellow scarves came to the city of Xiangcheng, and according to Liu Fan's instructions, surrounded the four gates of Xiangcheng.

The yellow turban on the city wall is like the color of earth, so many yellow turbans surrendered to the officers and soldiers, if they attack the city, how can their side resist?
