Chapter 87: Takeover and Provocation
In any case, Huangfu Song and Cao Cao are both eunuchs, or they are always labeled as eunuchs, strictly speaking, the two actually have a little relationship with the imperial party, so Liu Hong and the family's fighting methods, they don't comment too much.
However, in three days, I didn't want to have another little yellow door to come quickly, and spread the word of His Majesty, from now on, the Huangfu Song Department immediately went to Guangzong to take over the five colonels of the Northern Army, and there must be no mistake.
"What happened?" Huangfu Song came to the messenger vaguely, took out a small gold cake and handed it over.
The latter looked at it, and as soon as his sleeve moved, the gold cake had fallen into the sleeve, and it seemed that it was also a door. After getting the benefits, he took a pinch and said arrogantly: "Hedong Taishou was defeated by Zhang Jiao a few days ago!" ”
"So fast?!" Not to mention Huangfu Song, even Li Ming was frightened by this news at the moment. Dong Feifei seems to have received a military order to go on the expedition for a few days, right? Defeated like that?!
"Exactly?" Huangfu Song was a little anxious, and vaguely handed over another piece of gold cake.
"Actually, it's nothing!" Xiao Huangmen smiled, "Hedong Taishou plans to give up Guangzong and attack Xiaquyang, which is guarded by Zhang Jiao. As a result, he was ambushed by Zhang Jiao, if it weren't for Liu Bei, Lu Zhi's disciple, who led the army to the rescue, I was afraid that the whole army would have to be wiped out. His Majesty has ordered that Dong Zhuo be escorted to Beijing for conviction on the same day! ”
Yeah! Li Ming vaguely remembered that Dong Zhuo was ambushed when he was fighting against the Yellow Turban Thieves, and then he was rescued by Liu Bei and them. Later, when asked about the identity of the other party, he knew that it was Bai, and he also put on a posture of 'ashamed to be with him'.
"Thank you Huangmen for your teaching!" Huangfu Song arched his hand, the latter nodded, explained a few words, and left directly.
"This Dong Zhuo is too useless, right?" Xiao Yao couldn't help but complain.
"Pengfei, this matter is obviously not as simple as it seems!" Xi Zhicai said in a low voice.
Emperor Han transferred Lu Zhi back so that Dong Zhuo could pick peaches. So obviously, the family also fought back, and with lightning speed, it directly made Dong Zhuo suffer a defeat, which was regarded as a direct slap in the face of Emperor Han.
"The affairs of the court, we as soldiers are not good to evaluate! Since Your Majesty has an order, we will quickly go to Guangzong to take over! Huangfu Song shouted at this moment, Xiao Yao and the others immediately lowered their heads, this sentence was obviously for him.
"Whoa!" Li Ming responded with his hand, which was regarded as relieving the embarrassment.
"Cao Sima, General Li Bi! From now on, he will immediately go to Guangzong to take over the military power, and you will follow later, there must be no mistake! Huangfu Song instructed the two.
"Whoa!" The two of them gave up one after another, and after the latter received a reply, he quickly left the team with his personal guards.
In the next few days, in order to be able to go to Guangzong as soon as possible, I walked at least 60 miles a day, and even walked seventy or eighty miles in dark and cloudy weather.
Five days later, the army finally arrived in Guangzong, and Huangfu Song personally led the captains of the five schools of the Northern Army to meet them. The so-called five schools of the Northern Army, in the Han Dynasty, referred to the five battalions of Tun Cavalry, Yue Cavalry, Infantry, Changshui, and Shooting. The rank ratio of the lieutenant is 2,000 stones, which is equivalent to the county guard.
In contrast, Li Ming, a partial general, can only be said to be not in the stream at all. There is a name for a partial general, but it is not a regular army sequence, and when it is recommended by the late Emperor Fu Song, these captains also ignore Li Ming.
As for Cao Cao, he is just a military commander, and at this moment, he is also visiting these captains as a subordinate. behaved very tactfully, and even brought Li Ming to meet together, which made their attitude soften a lot.
What really made Li Ming speechless was that he had heard from Xun Cai that the Han Dynasty was knighted for military merits and attached great importance to military exploits. But in fact, in recent decades, the emperor's control over his courtiers has been very weak, so that many families have pushed their children to high positions by playing side balls.
Looking at it, these five lieutenants are all children of a family, so it's no wonder that they look down on Li Ming.
"Now everyone is in a robe, and we need to take care of each other. The destruction of the Yellow Turban Thief is imminent, as long as the three Zhang brothers can be broken, everyone will have credit! Huangfu Song smiled and came forward to say, I also hope that everyone will not stumble on each other.
"We are all battle-hardened, so naturally we will not delay the war! It's just that this is said to be a post-graduate who has only been in the army for less than two months, and he is fine? Tun Cavalry Captain Fang Sheng said with a smile.
"Li has been in the army for a short time, and the military affairs are still immature, and in the future, I will not let the seniors carry me more!" Li Ming stepped forward and smiled, although he was unhappy, but in the officialdom, he also knew that some things needed to be perfunctory.
"Yo, yes, at least self-aware! There's nothing for you here, stay in the rear, and after the war, I can't say that I will share your credit! Hahaha......" Fang Sheng thought that Li Ming was a bully, and laughed directly.
"Lord, they are all children of the family, and they all have the support of the family behind them, no matter what, it is not easy to offend! Otherwise, you may be in trouble for Youzhonglang! Seeing Li Ming's expression change slightly, Xi Zhicai immediately stepped forward and reminded in a low voice.
"Thank you seniors for your love, but as a Han army, I don't contribute to the country, and I don't want to go in my heart! But how about you sweep from the sidelines, so that you can do something? Li Ming said with a smile.
"Hahaha? Still skimming from the sidelines? Li Fu, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, stepped forward, "With your little arms and legs, aren't you going into battle to deliver food to the enemy?" To be a man must be self-aware, why should he not live with his own life? I really can't understand why the eyes of the right Zhonglang general are so bad that he treats you, a weak chicken, as a beautiful jade! ”
"Eh, Captain Li, that's a bit too much!" Huangfu Song hurriedly stopped, this was already a bit excessive.
It's also speechless, this Li Ming is still with small arms and legs, and he does look similar to the scribe, even wearing a Confucian robe, I'm afraid there is no sense of disobedience. He is also very curious about why such a person has so much strength.
It cannot be denied that in terms of martial arts and talent, Li Ming is far from the fifth school of the Northern Army, and these captains with mixed resumes are worse. As for this Li Fu, he is from the Li family in Longxi, and he can be regarded as the queen of Jiangmen, but it is a pity that he is a son of the side line, and he also took refuge in the Yuan family.
Since Li Ling, the Li clan in Longxi has been very low-key in the Han Dynasty, and even after that, there were no outstanding generals. But it cannot be denied that this is a famous family inherited from the pre-Qin era, and it is said that there are prefecture-level exercises and martial arts in the family.
However, since Li Fu can take refuge in Yuan Valve, it is obvious that this exercise has nothing to do with him, but he is afraid that none of the Xuan-level ones will be able to obtain it!
"According to Captain Li's meaning, is it possible to replace you in the battle as long as I prove that I am stronger than you?" Li Ming asked with a smile, "Or, Captain Li doesn't even have the confidence to win against me, a weak chicken?" ”
"Hmph, I'm a captain of the fifth school of the Northern Army, why do I have to meet you like a miscellaneous general?" Li Fu is not stupid, Li Ming dares to say that, then he naturally has his support.
"Maybe Captain Li misunderstood!" Li Ming smiled faintly, "I'm going to challenge the five of you!" If I win, then you don't have to fight, you can lead the headquarters to fight, and you can enjoy the happiness in the rear, how about it? ”
"Interesting!" Before Li Fu could speak, Fang Sheng had already stepped forward, "We are the same, what qualifications do you have to challenge us?" If nothing else, what if you fail?! ”
