Chapter 55: Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty

Zhao Yun didn't ink, and said: "General Huiji, the yellow scarves are everywhere now, the people are not happy, the Son of Heaven has issued an edict, and all states, counties and counties have recruited troops to defend themselves, and my county order is also sageful, and I dare not slack off."

Jian Shuo nodded and said, "And then?" ”

"It happened that the Yellow Turban thief Cheng Yuanzhi led 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to Zhuo County, and Zhao County ordered Zhuo County to ask for help, and led 1,500 soldiers to the rescue. Zhao Yun said.

"What do you say? Your county ordered 50,000 people to break the yellow scarves with 1,500 soldiers? Jian Shuo exclaimed.

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "That's true, at this time, it can be proved by Zou Jing, the captain of Youzhou Taishou, that General Zou was trapped in Zhuojun City at that time, and it was my county commander who saved him." ”

"We'll investigate this matter, so let's talk about what you're doing with us." Jian Shuo returned to his original path.

Zhao Yun clenched his fists and said: "My county commander is specially ordered to carry the two heads of the thief general, and I hope that General Jian can say a few kind words in front of His Majesty." ”

Jian Shuo smiled and said, "What kind of big deal should we be, it turned out to be to ask for military merits, hum." ”

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I don't dare to ask for merit, if I can get Your Majesty's permission, send troops with moderation, and exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves in Youji and Hebei, it is also a great achievement for General Jian." ”

"Okay, we know your purpose, then let's ask you, why don't you go to the general He Jin, but come to us instead?" Jian Shuo said sourly.

Zhao Yun laughed and said: "Although He Jin is a general, he is just a pig killer, and General Jian is an important minister beside His Majesty, and he is also a military captain, controlling the soldiers and horses in the world, and even the general has to look at General Jian's face." ”

Zhao Yun's words were deprecated and praised, and he praised Jian Shuo quietly, and laughed loudly: "Even if you Zhao County Order can see it, hmph, we will clean up He Jin Butcher sooner or later, you go back to the pavilion first, we will go to the court tomorrow, we have our own opinions." ”

Zhao Yun was overjoyed, hugged his fists and bowed: "Then there is General Lao Jian, and later I will order someone to send the head of the thief general, and in addition, my county order also prepared some good fur for General Jian and sent them to the house." ”

Jian Shuo was very happy and said: "Your county order is very good at doing things, we will do our best, and we will definitely make your county order satisfied, you can step down." ”

Zhao Yun withdrew from the hall, and couldn't help but shudder, Jian Shuo's voice really made him unbearable, I really don't know how the emperor could stand it with these eunuchs every day.

asked people to summon the two soldiers they brought, Zhao Yun returned to the pavilion, and Su Huan greeted him and said, "Brother Zhao, how is it?" ”

"Zhongting, order someone to send the heads of Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao, as well as the furs and treasures they brought, to Jian Shuo Mansion." Zhao Yun arranged.

Su Huan snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "We are fighting bravely on the front line to kill the enemy, but we have to prepare bribes for these eunuchs, it is really hateful!" ”

"Zhongting, don't say more, have you forgotten the purpose of this trip?" Zhao Yun shouted.

Su Huan hurriedly bowed down and said, "Huan doesn't dare to forget, he will never spoil the lord's plan." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Su Huan bowed and withdrew, and according to Zhao Yun's arrangement, the two heads and goods of the thief were sent to Jian Shuo's mansion.

In the morning of the next day, Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty sat in the middle of the palace, and the civil and military ministers were divided left and right, and Jian Shuo was also among them.

Originally, Jian Shuo, as a regular attendant, could not go to the palace to discuss matters, but he also had the status of a military captain and had to go to the palace to discuss matters.

The atmosphere above the main hall was a little solemn, which was not surprising, the sudden outbreak of the Yellow Turban riots across the country really gave everyone including Emperor Han Ling a headache.

"General, how is the war going now?" Liu Hong asked.

At this time, a person came out of the class, burly and with a meaty face, first bowed to Liu Hong, and then said: "Your Majesty, now the war between all parties is tight, Lu Zhi is fighting Zhang Jiao in Guangzong, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are fighting in Yingchuan, and they have won and lost each other. ”

"Humph! The dignified Han officers and soldiers can't even deal with a group of rabble, how did you become a general! Liu Hong scolded.

He Jin was frightened, and hurriedly defended: "The thieves are huge, and it is difficult to cut them off for a while, and Rong Chen will definitely be able to exterminate these thieves in some time." ”

"Humph!"

Liu Hong stopped talking, obviously not very satisfied with He Jin's answer, He Jin hurriedly retreated, stretched out his hand and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Jian Shuo saw He Jin eating deflated, and felt happy in his heart, so he immediately went out of class and bowed: "Your Majesty, the ministers have a performance." ”

"What's the matter? Come on! Liu Hongdao, obviously not very interested.

Jian Shuo glanced at He Jin and said loudly: "I received a battle report last night, Zhuo County in Youzhou was besieged by yellow turban thieves, and the thief generals Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao led 50,000 thieves to besiege the city. ”

"What? Zhuo County, Youzhou? Liu Hong was shocked, now he is in a hurry, if there is another large-scale riot in Youzhou, it will be troublesome.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the siege of Zhuojun has been lifted, and the thief generals Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao have been beheaded." Jian Shuo continued.

Liu Hong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "Which general made this great achievement?" Youzhou is too guarded by Liu Yan, or is it the assassin of Shi Guo Xun? ”

Jian Shuo shook his head, not daring to let Liu Hong wait too long, so he said: "It is a close neighbor of Zhuo County, and Zhao Qian, the county commander of Yi County, led 1,500 people to repel the thieves. ”

As soon as Jian Shuo's words were finished, the hall was silent, and the ministers held their breath, and they could only hear Liu Hong snorting and snorting there.

"Bold and bold, dare to bully the king? Come on, drag it out, cut it! General He Jin shouted sharply.

The corners of Jian Shuo's mouth raised, and he said: "Your Majesty, the thief has sent the heads of Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao to Luoyang, this matter is definitely true, this is a great victory!" ”

"Bring the head." Liu Hong commanded.

After a while, Jian Shuo's men held the tray high and came to the main hall, on which were two processed human heads, and a yellow scarf was tied to it.

"Your Majesty, Zhuojun was besieged that day, and the person guarding the city was Zou Jing, a subordinate of Liu Yan, the Taishou of Youzhou. Jian Shuo said again.

Liu Hong stared at the two heads, looked at them for a while, and suddenly laughed: "A small county order can defeat 50,000 Yellow Turban Army, if Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun know, don't be ashamed to death?" Jian Shuo, where is Zhao Qian now? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I am stationed in Yi County, and I have taken precautions." Jian Shuo replied.

Liu Hong frowned and said, "Since Zhao Qian has such talent, why don't you go to exterminate the Yellow Turban, but only guard one county?" ”

Jian Shuo has served Emperor Ling of Han for many years, and knows his temperament, if he takes the initiative to ask for credit for Zhao Qian, he will definitely be obstructed by He Jin and others, and now Liu Hong himself takes the initiative to ask, who dares to stop him?
