005, Feng Zhong General
"It's the eunuch and the relatives making trouble again!" Emperor Ling thought that they had hollowed out the emperor and ministers, and brutalized loyal ministers for their own selfish interests, which eventually led to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the princes rose up, and the Eastern Han Dynasty perished not long after.
Thinking of this, Emperor Ling beckoned to the guards and said, "Let's pull it back first, investigate it thoroughly, and reward and punish according to the law!" ”
Seeing this scene, the captain of the fourth battalion immediately said to the infantry captain: "Huangfu Song, thank you to the emperor yet!" ”
"Huangfu Song?" Emperor Ling couldn't help but be overjoyed. Huangfu Song is a famous general in the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the main credit is to quell the Yellow Turban Uprising, and later in the history of the Tang and Song dynasties, Huangfu Song ranked one of the 72 great generals.
Unexpectedly, Huangfu Song at this time turned out to be just a weak lieutenant, far from the demeanor of a general. Could it be that you are hungry like this? The Spirit Emperor had the heart to try again.
"Huangfu Song, I ask you, if you are full now, how big a bow can you pull?"
"Back to the emperor, if you are full now, the minister can pull the two stone bows!" Huangfu Song clenched his fists and replied to Emperor Ling.
The two-stone bow is equivalent to about 150 catties of strength in later generations.
"Good! Come on, get some food, let the captain of the emperor eat and drink, and then shoot the target. ”
After a while, a braised elbow and a big bowl of rice were served. Huangfu Song took it, swallowed his saliva, grabbed his elbow in his hand without hesitation, and gnawed on it, like a hungry giant wolf, more like a tiger biting its prey.
More than three catties of elbows, plus one catty of rice, were all eaten by Huangfu Song. He took out a sweat towel, wiped his mouth and hands, and stood up.
Huangfu Song took a bow from the bow stand, shook it, shook his head, picked up another bow, looked at it, and put it down. In the end, he picked one of the biggest bows.
The surrounding battalion soldiers began to whisper.
"Can you pick this bow? If the Huangfu Lieutenant's bow is not opened, his intestines will break. ”
"Wow! This is a three-stone bow, how can you pull the bow without 300 pounds of strength! No matter how powerful Captain Huangfu is, it is impossible to pull it away, just now he pulled a seven-bucket bow, and he didn't shoot 50 steps. ”
Some battalion soldiers quietly took out a few copper plates and said: "I'll sit in the village, bet on the one one who can pull the bow and pay two, and bet on the captain who can shoot 100 steps to the target, hurry up and bet." ”
......
Emperor Ling remained silent, watching Huangfu Song take this three-stone bow, take three iron arrows, and walk towards the shooting range.
"Captain, how far is the target?" The battalion soldier on the side asked.
"150 steps." Huangfu Song said lightly.
"God, does Huangfu Song want to show his martial arts talent in front of the emperor?" Someone saw that the target was so far away, and couldn't help but say it out loud.
"Hmph, wait and see the joke, no one in the five battalions can shoot 150 steps, let alone hit the target."
"No, I believe in our infantry captain, he is a good hand, he will definitely be able to shoot at a target from 150 paces away." The soldiers of the infantry battalion actually have no bottom in their hearts, but they admire their captain from the bottom of their hearts and hope that their captain can shoot at the target.
"Haha, hit a target 150 steps away? Joke, in the five battalions, those who can shoot at the target at 150 steps have not yet been born, let alone hit the bull's-eye. The people of the other battalions on the side finally found a good object of sarcasm, and they spat and laughed incessantly.
Another battalion soldier looked at the infantry battalion with contemptuous eyes and said, "If Captain Huangfu shoots at the target, I will eat your stinky socks!" ”
The battalion soldier was really angry, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay! If Captain Huangfu doesn't hit the target, I'll eat your stinky socks too. ”
The man laughed and said, "I don't want you to eat stinky socks, as long as you take out a penny to buy us wine and drink." ”
"Okay, it's a deal!"
At this time, Huangfu Song stood still at the white line, pulled out an iron arrow, took the arrow, pulled the bow, with the vibration of the bowstring, a bow was actually pulled full by Huangfu Song, aiming, the right hand was loosened, the iron arrow was like the wind galloping, instantly flew over the long open space, "tom", hit the bull's-eye, and then flew forward for seven or eight zhang before stopping.
Just when everyone was stunned, Huangfu Song pulled out two iron arrows in a row, and hit the bullseye again, and the three iron arrows all passed through the bull's-eye, leaving a fist-sized hole in the bull's-eye.
The entire review field was silent for a while, and some battalion soldiers carefully touched their hearts, but fortunately, there was no fist-sized hole.
"Good!" Emperor Ling stood up and shouted loudly, and at this time, the people of the five battalions woke up from their shock and burst into applause.
Under the applause, the soldiers of the infantry battalion took off their stinky socks and said proudly: "Our Huangfu Captain shows his might, and the three arrows are all worn through the bull's-eye. ”
The man smiled: "Just kidding, don't eat socks!" ”
The soldiers of the infantry battalion laughed loudly, and quietly ran out of the two of them, grabbed the man tightly with both hands, and shoved the smelly sock into his mouth.
The battalion soldier turned his head incessantly, his face swollen red, and suddenly, he vomited, vomiting out his socks and the contents of his stomach.
"I'm grassy! You haven't washed these socks in a few years, I'm going to smoke them to death. ”
The battalion soldiers next to him all laughed.
......
On the parade platform, Huangfu Song hung up his bow, stepped in front of Emperor Ling, knelt on one knee, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has not disgraced his mission, and the three arrows have hit the target!" ”
"Huangfu Song, good! As long as you work hard, how much ability you have, I will give you a big stage! Now, I have appointed you as the general of the five battalions, in charge of the five battalions, rectify military affairs, be diligent in military training, train a strong army, and maintain the Han world! ”
"Obey the order!" Huangfu Song excitedly saluted the Spirit Emperor. He is only thirty years old, he is already a general, and one step further is a general! If he followed Emperor Ling and made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, he might be the youngest general.
"Huangfu Song, you come forward," Emperor Ling beckoned to Huangfu Song, Huangfu Song took a few steps forward, but Emperor Ling took out a sword from his side, personally held it in front of Huangfu Song with both hands, and said:
"Huangfu Aiqing, this is the sword of Shang Fang, it has the righteousness of heaven and earth, you can use it to kill corruption, rebellion, rape and plunder, promote righteousness on behalf of me, and eliminate unhealthy trends for the Han Dynasty."
Then, Emperor Ling whispered in Huangfu Song's ear for a while, and after Huangfu Song heard it, he couldn't stop nodding yes.
In the end, Emperor Ling said loudly again: "Huangfu Song, do you understand what I expect from you? ”
Huangfu Song understood and immediately replied loudly: "The minister understands, and he must not forget the grace of His Majesty's cultivation!" ”
Emperor Ling inspected the five battalions of soldiers and horses, mainly wanting to establish contact with the army, and gradually control the guards and the five battalions of city defense in his hands, so that he was not afraid of eunuchs or relatives pinching their necks. Who would have thought that there was a huge boss named Huangfu Song hidden in the battalion.
The god of luck always favors Emperor Ling, and by chance, he is protected by such a capable minister as Huangfu Song, and the position of Emperor Lingdi is a little stronger.
