Chapter 31 Shame and Companionship
Liu Hong sat on the dragon throne, his face looked very pale, not far behind him, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Duan Qi and other ten permanent servants stood with their heads bowed, in addition, there were Lu Qiang, Guo Sheng and other large and small yellow doors were also densely packed in the corner of the hall.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there has never been such an incident as now, which made Liu Hong feel unforgettable impatience.
In the Yutang Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials have already quarreled, and the noisy words are like hundreds of mosquitoes and flies, which drill into their ears in one go, and they can't shake them off.
All because of a rebellion.
The rebellion came from Liangzhou, and the name of the rebel was Han Sui, the Jincheng people who had more than 100,000 soldiers and turned the entire Liangzhou and Sanfu upside down.
Just after the beginning of autumn this year, he was unwilling to rebel again lonely, and personally led more than 100,000 Qiang and Han rebels to detain Chencang.
When the news came, there was a terrible silence below, but only for a moment, and the commotion was like boiling water, suddenly popping up, and almost everyone was chanting 'more than 100,000 people'.
This number is like an overwhelming sword and halberd, rolling from the cool sky of the west, running over Sanfu with lightning speed, and where it passes, there are countless flesh and blood corpses, and there is no such thing.
For the first time, Liu Hong felt that the country had no pillars of talent, the army had no available generals, the Manchu Dynasty was full of civil and military, pigs and dogs were full, and they were all full of copper.
Zou Jing, the lieutenant of the Northern Army, who supervised the fifth battalion, saw that no one had admonished him, so he held up the board and said: "Your Majesty, the military affairs are urgent, and there can be no delay. ”
Liu Hong nodded solemnly, and immediately glanced at the Yutang Palace: "What Zou Aiqing said is extremely true, everyone Aiqing, who wants to lead the army to Chencang to break the enemy?" ”
After hearing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to face Liu Hong.
Liu Hong saw that no one was talking, and there was obviously anger in his voice: "Since all of you Aiqing don't want to go, can there be someone to recommend?" No matter what position you hold today, it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
The Yutang Hall was as quiet as death, and Liu Hong saw that there was still no one to answer, and he was immediately angry: "The country is in trouble and thinks of a good general, the late Taiwei Duan Xi can fight well, and he has made miraculous achievements, but it is a pity to make Wang Fu implicated and wronged."
Speaking of this, Liu Hong raised his voice: "Lang Lang, except for Duan Xi, is there no one who can share my worries?" Are they all scared by the Qiang people? ”
Liu Hong's roar did not change the attitude of the officials, their eyes were lowered, but their heads were lowered, and the Jinxian crown on their heads was almost shaky.
Liu Hong gritted his teeth with hatred, raised the battle report in his hand and was about to smash it down, when he suddenly saw someone hurrying outside the Yutang Palace, he fixed his eyes and saw that it was Yulin Zhonglang General Shan Bing who walked in the front, followed by the Han post soldier Hongling urgently.
The officials looked back one after another, and when they saw Hongling's urgency, their hearts suddenly twitched, and it was really a wave of unsettled waves, and at the beginning of the Xiliang Rebellion, the Saiwaiyi clan raised swords again.
The clouds of war spread into the Jade Hall, and everyone felt that the clouds were overhead, and they could not disperse.
Liu Hong's face was even paler, and before he could open his mouth to ask, Shan Bing had already knelt outside the Yutang Palace: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the state, because the matter said is extremely important, so I brought Hongling to the palace to make a statement, please forgive your majesty." ”
Liu Hong waved his hand absentmindedly and signaled Hongling to rush to the palace.
The Yutang Hall is full of princes and generals who eat two thousand stones, and Hongling's urgent envoy is just an ordinary post soldier, and the coercion of those who are the superior makes him uncomfortable, not to mention calling into the Yutang Hall where high-ranking officials gather.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and knelt outside the Yutang Hall on the spot: "Your Majesty, Shuo Fang has a great victory, and behead 40,000." ”
Liu Hong sat on the emperor's seat sickly, and after listening to the words of Hongling's urgent envoy, he was so shocked that Huo Ran got up, pointed at Hongling's urgent envoy and said, "What did you say?" ”
If he heard it correctly just now, it should be Shuo Fang's great victory and beheading 40,000.
Hongling hurriedly thought that Liu Hong had not heard clearly, so he raised his voice slightly: "Your Majesty, Shuo Fang has a great victory, beheading 40,000." ”
At this time, not only Liu Hong, but even the hundred officials could hear it clearly, and the air that had just cooled and solidified seemed to become active again, and an uproar broke out in the Jade Hall Hall in an instant.
"Bold, you dare to lie about your achievements?" Liu Hong hadn't spoken yet, Sikong Zhang Wen's face sank like water, and he pointed at Hongling and shouted loudly.
"Yes, it must be a false report of war exploits." Immediately, the retainers chimed in.
This incident is indeed unbelievable, how can those heroic iron horsemen who live outside the bitter cold all year round be defeated by the county soldiers alone?
Some ministers of the DPRK and China even discussed in private: "Fighting with foreigners is tantamount to using a mantis arm as a car and a mayfly shaking a tree." ”
After all, this matter also has a lesson from the past, when today's son also sent troops out of the fortress, the north attack Xianbei, although the formation is large, but the result is beyond everyone's expectations, the Han army out of the customs to fight, was beaten by Xianbei to lose his armor and flee.
Only 1,000 of the 40,000 troops fled back, and even the Xiongnu Shan Yu, who participated in the battle, was wounded and died.
So when Shuo Fang's good news came, the first thought in their hearts was to falsely report their military exploits, after all, this incident had happened in history.
This Hongling's anxious temperament was a little impatient, and when he heard this, he couldn't bear it, and he was about to step into the Jade Hall in a hurry.
"Presumptuous"
"Bastard, how can you wait for a pawn to enter?"
"Where is the Yulin Army, fork this guy out."
When the officials saw that Hongling's urgent envoy was about to step into the Yutang Palace, someone immediately jumped out of the civil official column, pointing at Hongling's urgent envoy and scolding.
"Above the high halls of people's words, they are all good talents of the auxiliary country, if you look at them, they are all city foxes and pikas." In a row of military attachés, there was a person sitting upright on his knees, who was short among his peers, with a well-proportioned figure, a white face and short hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes full of disdain.
Meng De said cautiously, someone behind him reminded him in a whisper.
"It's a pity that the soldiers spilled their blood on the battlefield outside, but when they come here, they have to suffer such a great humiliation." Cao Cao smiled coldly, and his gaze swept towards those humble gentlemen who were full of expression.
Suddenly, the entire Jade Hall Hall was full of heads and beasts, and Hongling was so angry that his face was about to drip blood, and he retorted desperately at the moment: "I didn't lie about my war exploits, these are all exchanged for a knife and a shot by the soldiers, think about the battle of the Thirteen Beacons......"
The more Hongling spoke, the more sad he became, and when he talked about the Battle of the Thirteen Beacons, he had already burst into tears and howled.
"Shut up!" Suddenly, a violent shout rose from the ground, shaking the eardrums of hundreds of officials, and even the beams of the Yutang Hall trembled.
Lu Zhi looked at the civil officials coldly, then shook off his clothes and stepped out: "Your Majesty, why don't you let Hongling make a statement, whether it is true or not, you will know when you hear it." ”
Saying this, he walked back to the queue, but he returned not to the civilian officer column, but the military attaché column, Zhu Jun saw this, and immediately gave him a place.
Lu Zhi seems to use his actions to tell those civil officials: ashamed to be in the company of others.
