Different from the victory of Zhuo County, the victory of Changshe is more of a practical significance is that the shape around Luoyang turned from danger to safety, and the victory of Zhuo County is just the first victory since the government fought against the Yellow Turban, because Youzhou is located in the north, even if Youzhou is lost, it is impossible to shake the foundation of the court, this victory can only be symbolic.

But the battle of Changshe is different, Yingchuan and Luoyang are close, once the whole territory of Yingchuan is lost, the capital Luoyang will be directly exposed to the Yellow Turban Army, it can be said that this great victory, opened the prelude to the counterattack of the official army against the Yellow Turban Army, since then the official army has been playing a triumphant song to launch an attack like a withering attack, regain the lost territory, and finally suppress the main force of the Yellow Turban.

Liu Ze was more or less surprised to be awarded the title of Cavalry Captain, it stands to reason that if he is promoted to the next level, he will be awarded a military commander, which is equivalent to becoming a regular. The cavalry lieutenant is comparable to an officer of 2,000 stones, only one level lower than the county defender. The official position of 2,000 stone in the Han Dynasty was a watershed and an important yardstick for whether or not it could be ranked among the bureaucratic class.

Liu Ze didn't expect that he didn't get the seat that he didn't get in Zhuojun and Guangzong desperately, and when he arrived at the Changshe, he just easily watched Huiyun and watched Huifeng and got it, why didn't Zhang let them get in the way this time? Could it be that they also have a moment of conscience discovery?

In fact, Liu Ze was wrong, this time he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant, all because of the merits of Huangfu Song. Liu Ze's cavalry lieutenant was asked by Huangfu Song to the court, one is that Liu Ze has made great contributions, and the other is that Huang Fu Song is also afraid that the ten permanent attendants will make an obstacle, and Huang Fu Song even vaguely proposed in the upper sparse that if his recommendation list cannot be implemented, he will be ready to return to his hometown and let others take his seat.

Huangfu Song's coercion obviously worked, and the victory of the Changshe was only the first victory, and the battle with the Yellow Turban was still to come. Not only was the list reported by Huangfu Song approved, but also the title of Marquis of Huangfu Songdu. At the same time, he also ordered Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to take advantage of the victory to pursue and level the yellow turbans in Runan, Chenguo, and Nanyang in one fell swoop.

After receiving the holy decree, Huangfu Song naturally did not dare to slack off, and sent scouts to reconnoiter the movements of the yellow turbans in various places. After the defeat of Bocai and Peng Tuo, they flowed in the direction of Runan, collected the scattered yellow turbans in Runan, and gathered about 50,000 or 60,000 horses, and then went north to Chen, attacked Chenxian, and there were great signs of resurgence.

In Nanyang, the new Taishou Qin Jie killed Zhang Mancheng, the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, and the Yellow Turban Army promoted Zhao Hong as the commander of the Qu and led an army of 100,000 to continue to occupy Wancheng, and the form of Nanyang is still not optimistic.

Zhang Bao saw that the momentum was not good after the defeat of Bocai's army, so he immediately crossed the Yellow River north and went to Guangzong to defect to Zhangjiao.

So Huangfu Song decided to divide his troops into two routes, one was to lead his army eastward, pointing directly at Chen State, planning to encircle and annihilate Bocai's troops under Chen County. The other route was led by Zhu Jun, who went south to reinforce Wancheng, joined forces with Qin Jie, and encircled and suppressed Zhao Hongbu in Nanyang. The 5,000 reinforcements led by Cao Cao and Huangfu Song marched east to suppress the enemy, and Sun Jian naturally followed Zhu Jun to the expedition.

In view of the fact that after the defeat of Yingchuan in the previous year, there were less than 10,000 soldiers and horses under Zhu Jun's command, and Huangfu Song assigned about 10,000 private troops supported by Haoqiang in Yuzhou to Zhu Jun's department.

As for Liu Ze, Huangfu Song ordered him to rush back to Guangzong, Zhang Bao led his troops to the north, and the pressure on Lu Zhi's side increased greatly, it was the time to employ people, not to mention that Liu Ze was originally a subordinate of Lu Zhi.

Without further ado, Liu Ze immediately bid farewell to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and resigned with Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others, and led his headquarters of 500 light horsemen to the north.

After the long society, Liu Ze thought about rushing back to the front line of Guangzong as soon as possible, according to the course of history, at this time, Lu Zhi should meet with Zuo Feng, the eunuch sent by the emperor to inspect in Guangzong, and with his character and temper, he would definitely categorically refuse Zuo Feng's request for bribes. After that, Zuo Feng went forward to slander the emperor, saying that the high base did not fight, and neglected the morale of the army, and Emperor Han Ling favored a group of eunuchs, who obeyed their words and immediately removed Lu Zhi from his post and questioned him.

Although he couldn't figure out Lu Zhi's situation now, Liu Ze still decided to hurry back to Guangzong, and Liu Ze didn't know how much he could help.

Due to Bocai's fiasco in Changshe, most of the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou and even Yanzhou have now become frightened birds, and they have fled without a trace when they see the traces of officers and soldiers from a distance, which has saved Liu Ze a lot of trouble, and he has reached the south bank of the Yellow River unimpeded.

At that time, in mid-June, it was the flood season of the Yellow River, and the river was surging, and there were several boatmen looking for them at the crossing of the Yellow River, but they did not dare to cross. Liu Ze took out several times the gold, but the boatman did not dare to agree. It wasn't until Zhang Fei was angry and roared like thunder that the boatman responded tremblingly. However, the Yellow River was overflowing, and the boatman carefully carried the men and horses across the river, and it took three days to carry Liu Ze's 500 people and 500 horses over. Liu Ze thanked the boatman, and although the boatman repeatedly shirked, Liu Ze still paid them several times the ship's money. Then go north to the giant deer.

When he was only a few dozen miles away from Guangzong, he suddenly saw a cluster of military horses coming from the opposite side, with bright banners and bright armor, but it was the Praetorian Guard of the Imperial Palace, and a chariot was escorted in the middle of the procession. Liu Ze saw it from a distance, his heart was dark, and he dared to hurry up, but he was still a step too late.

Zhang Fei said heartlessly: "Yo, who committed a felony and asked these forbidden soldiers to escort him?" Liu Ze glared at him, ignored him, and rushed straight in front of the forbidden army.

Suddenly, someone blocked the way in front of him, and there was a panic in the ranks of the forbidden army, and an officer who looked like a military marquis shouted: "What person? ”

Liu Ze stopped his horse and said, "I am the captain of the horse, Liu Ze is also, who are you holding on the car?" ”

Although the forbidden army is arrogant, how can he be compared with the cavalry lieutenant as a small military marquis, and immediately the military marquis sneered and said: "It turned out to be Liu Duwei, and the subordinate official was rude." The commander asked who was in the car, and he didn't dare to hide it from the captain, and the person on the car was Lu Zhi, the former Beizhonglang general, Lu Zhonglang. ”

Liu Ze said in a deep voice: "What crime did Lu Zhonglang commit to being imprisoned by you like this? ”

"We are also acting according to orders, but as for the crime committed by Lu Zhonglang, we don't know."

"I am a subordinate of Lu Zhonglang, I have a few words I want to talk to Lu Zhonglang, can you make it convenient?"

The marquis hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid—"

Zhang Fei also rushed up, and when he heard that the forbidden army had captured Lu Zhi, he couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Lu Zhonglang fought bloodily, but he was arrested by you bastards, is there any reason?" Damn, wait until I step forward and split the car, rescue Lu Zhonglang, and then settle accounts with you bastards! ”

As he spoke, he grabbed his sleeves and was about to step forward, but his fierce and vicious appearance frightened the forbidden army and retreated again and again.

Guan Yu grabbed him from the side and said in a low voice: "Third brother, don't make a mistake." "The Praetorian Guard is the emperor's personal soldiers, and offending the Praetorian Army is undoubtedly a capital crime.

Zhang Fei was unrelenting, and shouted: "I'm afraid of him, Lao Tzu shouldn't be this bad, rescue Lu Zhonglang, or go back to Zhuo County to be free." ”

Liu Ze glanced at Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei was speechless, Liu Ze turned around and said, "I just simply greeted Lu Zhonglang a few words, and I won't delay for too long." ”

I don't know if it was because of Liu Ze's official position, or if the military marquis was frightened by Zhang Fei, and nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, Captain Liu, please." ”

Liu Ze stepped forward, and the forbidden soldiers in front of the car gave way. Lu Zhi in the car was dressed in prison clothes, his hands and feet were handcuffed by thick iron coats, he was haggard, and his body was a little thinner than before, but his eyes were still blazing and his expression was calm.

Liu Ze threw himself in front of the car, his heart couldn't help but be sour, and said, "Teacher......"

Lu Zhi said with a smile: "Oh, it's Runde, how is the battle situation over there?" Lu Zhi was in prison, and when he saw his disciple, the first thing he said was not to tell how he was, but to care about the war in the south.

Liu Ze couldn't help but burst into tears, and very briefly told Lu Zhi about the situation of the Battle of Changshe.

Lu Zhi listened to Liu Ze's story very carefully, and said with relief: "Okay, good! This fire of the long society is burning well! Yizhen won a beautiful victory this time, and he took advantage of the victory in one go, and the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was not far away. ”
