Chapter 23 Intercepting and Killing Huangfu Song
No matter what, Wang Yun's letter could not be delivered to Huangfu Song. Because now that the holy decree of the imperial court has set off, and they are all riding fast horses, Wang Yun will be too late to deliver the letter even if he wants to send the letter again. What's more, the letter is still in Dong Liang's hands, if Dong Liang is unhappy, then he can hand over the letter to Dong Zhuo, and then let Dong Zhuo clean him up. And Wang Yun, a cowardly guy who is afraid of death, he will not choose to continue to die for Huangfu Song. Therefore, he could only watch Huangfu Song being intercepted and killed.
Under the gallop of the fast horse, in less than three days, the holy decree was transferred from Sili to Bingzhou, and then handed over to Huangfu Song.
"The emperor summoned me back to Luoyang to serve as the captain of the city gate!" Huangfu Song said.
But a person next to him immediately said: "General Huangfu Song, no!" If you go back casually, then I'm afraid you will be relieved of military power! Now you are General Zuo, you have the right to command the army, and the 30,000 army can be used to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and then the Qing monarch is on the side! β
This person is Gai Xun, and he also persuaded Huangfu Song to crusade against Dong Zhuoqingjun in his previous history, but Huangfu Song did not do so, because Huangfu Song recognized the emperor's holy decree. Huangfu Song is a super foolish and loyal person, so he naturally will not oppose the emperor's holy decree. There was once a man named Yan Zhong, who once persuaded Huangfu Song to use the military power in his hands to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, and then he could get the world. But Huang Fu Song refused, Huang Fu Song was very stupid and loyal to the Eastern Han Dynasty. And now that he sees that it is the emperor's "holy decree", he naturally wants to take office, so he also chose to give up his military power to take office.
And Gai Xun saw that Huangfu Song was reluctant to cavalry, and immediately sighed. And Huangfu Song began to rush to Chang'an with dozens of cavalry of some cronies, and he didn't know that not far away, a group of 2,000 cavalry was rushing towards them.
Huangfu Song rushed to the direction of Luoyang with dozens of cavalry, but in less than twelve hours, he immediately encountered a group of cavalry coming from a distance. And this cavalry Huangfu Song saw the big banner with the word Dong written on it, which represented the leading general of this army surnamed Dong. And when Huangfu Song saw this situation, he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart. He didn't know what the army was for, so he didn't know what to do.
"General, what should I do?" A pro-soldier asked.
"Don't be afraid, what are they afraid of? I'm also the general of the left of the imperial court, what can he do to me? Let's go up and ask who they are. Huangfu Song said.
"Who are you? I am Huangfu Song, the left general of the Han Dynasty, who are you? Who is your general, I want to see him! Huangfu Song shouted.
When Dong Liang heard this, he immediately smiled and snorted: "There is a way in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door to hell, you can vote for it!" Since you took the initiative to send it to the door, then don't blame us for doing it to you. If you don't take it, you will be blamed! Surround them all with me. β
Soon, the two thousand cavalry also besieged these Huangfu Song and those Huang Fu Song's personal soldiers, and Huang Fu Song didn't know what was going on, so he immediately stood still, because he was afraid of causing a misunderstanding.
"Who is your commander, let him come to me!" Huangfu Song shouted.
"General Dong, it's me!" Dong Liang said.
And Huangfu Song saw Dong Liang and immediately said: "It turned out to be Dong Liang's son, what do you mean by leading so many cavalry and surrounding me?" They are all soldiers of the Han Dynasty, why do you want to be like this? Am I not going to Luoyang to take office? Why are you standing in my way? You are all soldiers of the Great Han, why do you need to do this? β
But Dong Liang smiled and said, "General Huangfu, who said that we are soldiers of the Han Dynasty?" β
"Aren't you soldiers of the Great Han? You should be the West Park Army! Huangfu Song still doesn't quite understand.
Dong Liang immediately said: "This is not necessarily, General Huangfu, you exterminated the Yellow Turban Army, and buried more than 100,000 Yellow Turban Army alive!" More than 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers died under your order to kill the captives, how immoral you must be! Therefore, I am afraid that the Yellow Turban Army in the world hates you to the core, and they can't wait to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin! β
"Of course, I killed all thieves, and since they rebelled, they should die. My Emperor Fu Song has no prisoners to kill thieves, anyway, since they rebelled, they are all thieves, and if I kill them, they deserve it! Huangfu Song said viciously.
Dong Liang's face turned dark, although Dong Liang was shameless, he still had a conscience. Dong Liang would never do such a large-scale killing of prisoners, if it was to kill the enemy on the battlefield, there was nothing to say, but killing the prisoners afterwards would be a violation of morality and even human rights. Dong Liang really couldn't imagine what it was like to bury more than 100,000 captives alive at one time. The Nanjing Massacre by the Japanese shocked the world. However, it was still a foreign invader slaughtering, and if this ass was a crooked person, it must be understandable. But this Huangfu Song is really a scumbag, he slaughtered his own people, slaughtered the people of his own nation.
Many books in later generations regarded Huangfu Song as a hero, and even the Romance of the Three Kingdoms also touted him, but this could not cover up his crime of burying more than 100,000 Yellow Turban Army prisoners alive. But he still doesn't feel guilty now, and he is still so ashamed to say what he should be damned? But if the government gave them a way to live, then why would the people rebel? Although Zhang Jiao can instigate, how much can he incite alone? Flies don't bite seamless eggs, if this Eastern Han Dynasty is a monolith, that horn can't incite the people to rebel. It is precisely because the Eastern Han Dynasty has decayed and the people have no way to live, but the imperial court is still constantly exploiting, so they will be forced to revolt.
If the imperial court can give them some way to live, then why would they rebel? However, this Huangfu Song did not find the reason from his Eastern Han court, but shirked the responsibility to the people. Of course, this is a common feature of any feudal dynasty, and this Dong Liang is absolutely understandable. But after he defeated the Yellow Turban Army, he actually slaughtered and buried more than 100,000 Yellow Turban Army alive for this purpose, these are all poor people, they are all forced to rebel. But now that he was buried alive by Huangfu Song, how many souls are there! Huangfu Song can be said to have used the blood of the people to stain his official hat red, which is simply the most intolerable thing for Dong Liang, a small citizen in his previous life. After all, Dong Liang was only from a small people's background, so he naturally wouldn't agree to those officials taking their lives in exchange for promotions. This is also the kind of rabbit death fox tragedy, Dong Liang will definitely not have a good impression of this kind of Huangfu Song.
If Dong Liang only wanted to kill Huangfu Song because of political reasons before, and now Huangfu Song has no regret or guilt for burying more than 100,000 people in his country alive, this makes Dong Liang really angry. Human nature is so cold, then Dong Liang really doesn't need to spare him, he is no longer worthy of being a person, then let him be a ghost.
"General Huangfu Song, we are not the cavalry of the Han Dynasty today, and we are not the soldiers of the Han Dynasty. Today, we are the Yellow Turbans! Dong Zhuo said something that Huangfu Song couldn't understand.
"What do you mean by that? You are obviously soldiers of the Han Dynasty, why do you call yourself a Yellow Turban thief? Huangfu Song asked.
"Today, we are here to ask for your life for more than 100,000 souls of our Han Dynasty! Get ready! Dong Liang said.
"Karmaβ"
The 1,000 cavalry surrounding Huangfu Song immediately drew their bows and arrows, and then prepared to shoot. And Huangfu Song and his personal soldiers don't know what's going on, these are obviously the troops of their own court, why do they want to come over and kill themselves? What's more, Dong Liang also said an inexplicable word, saying that today they are the Yellow Turban Army, not the troops of the imperial court, what does this mean?
"Dong Liang, what do you want? You're killing and injuring your colleagues, you're rebelling, a capital crime! Huangfu Song reprimanded angrily.
"Shoot me the arrows!" Dong Liang said.
"Whoosh Whoosh ......"
Thousands of arrows immediately shot towards Huangfu Song and those personal soldiers, but Huangfu Song and his personal soldiers had no shield to resist at all, so they directly faced thousands of arrows, and they were shot under the horse one by one. And even Huangfu Song had dozens of arrows stuck in his body, obviously shot by random arrows, and those of their war horses were all shot dead on the spot, and none of them could dodge these arrows.
Dong Liang dismounted, then walked to those people, and then said: "Bury these Huangfu Song's personal soldiers, they are also people who do not deserve to die, but they were killed by us." Pensions are paid to their families according to our standards. As for this Huangfu Song, he took his body away, and then I kept it useful. β
"Why?" Huangfu Song said with blood foam, obviously he wanted to ask why Dong Liang wanted to kill him when he was dying.
Dong Liang saw Huangfu Song, who was still dying, and then said: "Because, you have no humanity anymore and are not worthy of being a person." Next, Zhu Jun! β
At this moment, Dong Liang also had the idea of killing those guys who had lost their conscience. At that time, the commanders who buried the Yellow Turban captives alive were Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Wang Yun and Cao Cao. These are the most intolerable, because they no longer have a conscience and humanity, and they can ignore human life for the sake of their own future, and they cannot let them go without a little benevolence.
Dong Liang then turned the arrow closest to Huangfu Song's heart fiercely, and then pulled it out again, and then Huangfu Song suddenly burst into blood, and then died immediately.
