Tang Hua said to Zhang Yang: "Zhang Taishou estimated that after thinking about it all night, there should be a clear answer." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Zhang Yang got up and knelt down to Tang Hua, Dong Dongdong kowtowed three times in a row and said: "Zhang Yang looks down on following the lord, if there is any repentance, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and the five thunders will hit the top, please accept it." ”

Tang Hua got up and helped Zhang Yang and said: "Zhang is too polite, don't worry, you go to Jinyang and Boda for a while, and after clarifying our relevant rules and regulations, policies and regulations, you can go to other counties to take office." But you don't have any mental baggage, as long as I live one day, I will definitely not fail you. ”

Zhang Yang said: "Thank you, lord." ”

Tang Hua thought in his heart, as long as you call me the lord publicly, then it will be impossible for you to erase the word Tang Hua from your body in your life, and you will always be printed with my Tang Hua name, and when you want to vote for others, you will be questioned.

Then there are some garbage officials, who don't have any great talent anyway.

Tang Hua said to them: "I am very happy that you come to surrender to me, but I hope that you will do more practical things for the people in the future, and think more about the people, your work performance will be assessed every year, and the re-election that meets the requirements can only be the lower field, and those with outstanding achievements will be promoted, but these must be on the basis of honesty and integrity, for the corruption and bribery of officials and other illegal acts, I am very disgusted, if found, I will definitely deal with it severely, and I hope that everyone will be fair and honest in the future work, Self-denial and dedication to public service, and be a good official loved by the people. ”

Zhang Yang and his former officials said in unison: "Venerable Lord Teachings." ”

Tang Hua smiled and said to Zhang Yang: "Zhang Taishou will return to Jinyang with me tomorrow, you go back and clean up first, and the other officials will also go out to do errands." ”

In the afternoon, Zhang Liao returned.

After Tang Hua saw him, he said, "Wen Yuan has worked hard. ”

Zhang Liao said: "I'm not hard, the lord is harder than me." ”

Tang Hua said: "Wenyuan, how is the attack on Huguan?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "Big brother, don't worry, when our army arrived at Huguan, it was already two more ten, and it was impossible to act according to the original plan, but fortunately, the defenders in Huguan didn't know that Jinyang had been attacked by our army, and their defense was also very lax." I let the soldiers rest for two hours after they were full, on the fifth watch, Li Jin's kid said that he was born in Orion, and it was common to cross mountains and mountains, so he took fifty soldiers from Orion to climb the Huguan City Wall, and just climbed up to find that the soldiers of our army had rebelled against a small number of guards, and the soldiers guarding the Huguan City Wall on the city wall that night were all on duty tonight after being swapped with other soldiers, so Li Jin and they got their support as soon as they went up, and several other soldiers who were not our army had already been controlled by them.

Then it's very simple, Li Jin and they put down the drawbridge, open the city gate, I led a large army to kill the generals, how can the three thousand garrison soldiers on the pot be enough for us to clean up, and the battle will be resolved in only half an hour. ”

Tang Hua said: "Yes, what about the casualties?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "Our army killed more than 400 enemies, captured more than 2,300 people, our army suffered more than 100 casualties, 12 people were seriously wounded or killed, and a large number of weapons and equipment were also captured, especially a lot of arrows, which laid the foundation for guarding the pass in the future, and the grain and grass were also sufficient, enough for our army's 5,000 soldiers to eat more than half a year." ”

Tang Hua said: "That's good, did you confess Li Jin?" It is necessary to let him heighten and thicken the wall of the gate, strengthen the defensive measures, and enhance the defensive capability. ”

Zhang Liao said: "Big brother, don't worry, Li Jin's kid, during this time in Yanmen Pass, he really has a good idea of how to repair the city wall, he will do it." By the way, the lord, the soldiers stationed on Huguan are basically elite soldiers from the former state, more than 2,300 prisoners, and more than 2,000 people have met the requirements of our army, and I have brought them down this time. ”

Zhao Yun said happily when he heard this: "Lord, then you will lead two thousand soldiers of our army back to Jinyang tomorrow, and the newly reorganized ones will be left for Wen Yuan and me, so that the lord will be much safer." ”

Zhang Liao said: "The lord is leaving tomorrow." ”

Tang Hua said: "Yes, if you don't go, you can't go, the party will be handed over to Wen Yuan, you will lead 5,000 soldiers of the Flying Snake Army and 5,000 soldiers of the Python Army to garrison the party, and Huguan will be controlled by you." In the morning, I told Junyi that for sightseeing on the prairie, let Junyi, Wenyuan, and Zilong take turns with the three of you. ”

Zhang Liao said: "Don't worry, I will never live up to the trust of my lord." ”

Tang Hua smiled and said, "Wenyuan, our south gate depends on you now, you can't be careless." ”

Zhang Liao said: "It's the lord, I will be cautious." ”

Early the next morning, Zhao Yun led his army to march to the West River.

Tang Hua returned to Jinyang with Dian Wei, Tian Chou, Zhang Yang and 2,000 soldiers, and Zhang Liao and Mai Zi sent Tang Hua and them a long way away to separate from them.

Along the way, Tang Hua and the others advanced neither fast nor slow, and in the afternoon, the scout in front came back and said that a corpse had been found on the side of the road.

Tang Hua said: "In this troubled world, there are dead people every day, what is the fuss, bury him." ”

The scout soldier said, "Lord, it seems that the man is not completely dead, and his heart is still beating. ”

Tang Hua glanced at the soldier and said, "Then let's go and take a look together, if there is help, we should take him away." ”

Tang Hua, Dian Wei, and Tian Chou followed the scout to inspect the injured man, and when Tang Hua saw the injured man, Tang Hua was taken aback and exclaimed, "Gao Shun." ”

Tian Chou walked to the front and said, "How could Gao Shun be here?" Who injured him like this, with Gao Shun's ability, although the injuries on his body are not completely healed, it is not easy to hurt him, what the hell is going on. ”

Tang Hua shook his head, bent down to inspect Gao Shun's injuries, and found that Gao Shun still had a little heartbeat, blood in his mouth, and no obvious injuries on his body, but there were indeed scars on his chest. Coupled with the recurrence of his original old injury, if it were someone else, it is estimated that he would have ascended to heaven long ago.

Dian Wei looked at Gao Shun's injuries and said, "Lord." Gao Shun's injury was done by someone he knew, and he didn't dodge at all, otherwise, with Gao Shun's ability, it would be impossible for others to hurt him like this in the front, unless the other party shot extremely fast, but with Gao Shun's reflection of years of martial arts, once there is danger, he will definitely react, and Gao Shun does not reflect. ”

Tang Hua said: "Don't worry about it so much, it's important to save people first, Ziman, you and Zitai help me, help Gao Shun sit up, let's give him first aid first." ”

Tang Hua took out the two bottles of Yunnan Baiyao from the bag behind his back, took the two insurance pills left in the bottle, and gave the two insurance pills to Gao Shun with wine. This is an emergency insurance pill! Generally, only one pill can save his life, Tang Hua has now given Gao Shun two pills, hoping to save his life, and there will be a miracle.

Tian Chou said: "Lord, is such a small two pills useful?" What kind of medicine is it? ”

Tang Hua smiled and said to Tian Chou: "Oh, these are the two life-saving pills left over from the last time I saved you, there is one in each bottle of white medicine, at that time, you were mainly traumatized, so you didn't need life-saving pills, and Gao Shun was an internal injury, so you need to use this life-saving pill, under normal circumstances, only one pill can save your life." ”

Tian Chou said: "Thank you, lord, where can I buy this medicine?" ”

Khan, if you can buy it, it is not rare. This is a special medicine brought by later generations, and it is a special medicine that has been developed after thousands of years of research and practice. Of course, I can't tell Tian Chou and them clearly, and I can't understand it.

Tang Hua said with a smile: "I can't sell it, it was given to me by my companion when I was a child after he came back from abroad, and it is estimated that there are only two of them in the world, and there will be no more." ”

Tian Chou said: "It's so expensive! I just listened to Zilong and they said that if it wasn't the lord I met at that time, I wouldn't be able to save it, it turned out that the lord used up the medicine he had spare. ”

Tang Hua smiled and said: "Zitai, why don't you take it to heart, the situation at that time was very urgent, even if it wasn't you, I would save it." I'm just because of the matter, the main thing is that your life should not be extinguished, and God will let you destroy the Tartar Iron Rider, and you will have to work hard. ”

He burst out laughing.

Dian Wei said: "My lord, the scouts have reconnoitred all around, and they have not found any hostile situation, but they have found a group of people walking behind the mountain, and they don't know anything else. ”

After hearing this, Tang Hua said: "Forget it, there is no need to search, let the soldiers pay the stretcher, we can only carry Gao Shun away." ”

Dian Wei said: "It's the lord." ”

After arriving in Jinyang City, Tang Hua had a good rest for a few days.

Of course, during the break, he was also thinking about how to explain to the court the matter of attacking and annexing the state, if this matter was not handled well, then Tang Hua would face the crusade of the court's army, which would be difficult to do.

Tang Hua has the ability to fight against the army of the court, there are too many capable people in the court who can lead troops to fight, not to mention anything else, just Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun are all very good generals, and the Yellow Turban Army has no chance to fight back under their offensive, not to mention that Tang Hua only has tens of thousands of horses now, how can he resist?

It is also difficult to settle this matter easily, and the only way is to rely on the help of the eunuch Zhang Rang, if the general He Jin can also help say something good, then the situation should take a turn for the better.

Tang Hua called Sima Lang and Tian Chou, now only the two of them can come up with ideas, and the others are not around, now I feel that there is a real lack of talents, there is no think tank, it would be great if there was a strong think tank, they would come up with all kinds of countermeasures.

After a while, Sima Lang and Tian Chou arrived.

Tang Hua said to the two of them: "Zitai and Boda, let's study how to explain the matter of merging the state to the court, this matter can't be delayed any longer, the more we drag it back, the more passive we will become, let's take the initiative to explain it to the court." ”

Tian Chou said: "Lord, I have also discussed this matter with Boda in the past two days, and we feel that this matter should be blamed on Ding Yuan, Lu Bu and his son." It is said that it was because Ding and Lu disobeyed the holy decree and not only did not give the holy god the money and food to the soldiers who fought against the Tartars, but also rudely wounded the messenger who went to coordinate the matter, which caused the soldiers to mutiny. When the soldiers heard that Ding and Lu were embezzling the reward given to them by the emperor, they captured Jinyang in a fit of rage.

The soldiers did not catch the murderers Ding Yuan and Lu Bu in Jinyang City, and pursued in the direction of Shangdang, so that Shangdang was also beaten down by the mutinous soldiers. The lord saw that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, and he had no choice but to agree to the mutinous soldiers and pay the emperor's reward from the government in Jinyang City, which had been defeated, and basically calmed the anger of the soldiers through the bitter persuasion of the lord. ”

Sima Lang said: "My lord, I discussed with Zitai, and while blaming Ding and Lu for the nature, I also had to tell the court that Ding and Lu sent troops to attack us for no reason, and every time they echoed with the Xianbei Tartars on the prairie, which made our army very passive, on the one hand, our army was trying to resist the attack of the Tartar iron cavalry. On the other hand, we have to face the army led by Lu Bu sent by Ding Yuan, we suspect that Ding Yuan is a big traitor and traitor, besides, Ding Yuan's righteous son Lu Bu himself is a Xianbei Tartar, and he also killed his biological mother with his own hands, and he is a rebellious and evil person. ”

Tian Chou continued: "My lord, on this basis, we will now report to the court that General Junyi of our army is now leading the army to destroy the four Xianbei Tartar tribes and kill more than 6,000 Tartars on the prairie, so that the emperor will know that our army is wholeheartedly resisting the Tartar iron cavalry and fighting bloodily for our Han border." ”

After hearing this, Tang Hua said: "Very good, just give the emperor Lao'er an excerpt according to what the two of you said, and add one more sentence, let the court replace the history of the state again, and I also hope that the court will send a new history of the state to take office as soon as possible." ”

Sima Lang said: "Lord, if the court really sends a new assassin to the history, then we are not busy in vain." ”

Tang Hua smiled and said: "Boda, there is no way to do this, if you want to settle this matter, you can only do this, and you have to send someone to Luoyang to give gifts to the eunuch Zhang Rang and the general He Jin in time." If we can get the two of them to say something nice for us, then we won't have a problem. Because in the court, if it is something that He Jin and other officials want to do, the eunuchs will generally oppose it, and on the contrary, what the eunuchs want to do, the officials headed by He Jin are also fiercely opposed. If we bribed the two of them to help, I don't think the problem would be too big. ”

After hearing this, Tian Chou said: "The lord is right, the most important thing now is to calm things down, even if it is a new assassination, it is just an ornament, the army is in our hands, the officials are appointed by us, what are we afraid of." ”

Tang Hua said: "Having said that, we still have to report the list of Taishou of the other counties to the court, and find a way to approve it according to our list, so that others will not be able to come to the state to interfere." ”

Sima Lang said: "My lord, we are too short of internal affairs officials now, and many of the original officials do not meet our requirements. ”
