"Tianming wants to go to Qingzhou Yellow Turban?" He Jin looked at He Bai in astonishment, and asked with some puzzlement: "There are only more than 100,000 people in Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, and there are Qingzhou state soldiers who suppress each other, so why do you need to go in person in Tianming?" Now that there is a big event in Beijing, Tianming is not in Beijing to help me, but what are you doing in Qingzhou? ”

He Jin didn't know that although there were only tens of thousands of yellow turbans in Qingzhou at this time, a year or two later, because of the incompetence of Shi Jiaohe, the entire Qingzhou was all yellow turban thieves. After the chaos, he was killed and captured by Gongsun Zhan, and more than 100,000 were subdued by Cao Cao, and most of the others starved to death. Kong Rong, who was the minister of the North Sea at the time, agreed that when there is no food, people who don't know food are right. After Yuan Tan got Qingzhou, there were less than a million people left in Qingzhou, which had nearly 3.7 million.

Since he is going to Qingzhou now, he is to seize his military power, destroy the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and then unify the six counties of Qingzhou when he is helpless. With Qingzhou as the foundation, there are no enemies in the east and north, and Cao Cao, who is dominated by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban soldiers in history, will be powerless. At that time, Gongsun Zan contained Yuan Shao for himself, whether it was westward to Yan and Henan, or southward to Xu and Yang, it could be said that it was smooth sailing. In a few years, great things can be accomplished.

He Bai said: "Bai's ambition is to follow Wei Huo's example to attack Hu Lu and live in the wolf, rather than staying in Beijing and doing nothing." Bai has been in the Beijing division for half a year, and fortunately with the help of the general, he was awarded the title of Marquis of Sunset Pavilion for his military merits. Since then, however, it has never been of much use. The general's command is full of talents, both civil and military, there are not many whites, and there are many whites, so Bai Fang thought of going to Qingzhou to suppress the Yellow Turbans and accumulate military exploits. ”

"When the general really takes power in the future, the world will be stable at that time, and Bai will lead the troops to expedition to Xianbei, and I will be humiliated by the six years of Xiping of the Han Dynasty. And I think Brother Xian's temperament is too feminine, and I want to take him to the army to feel the man's anger. After staying in the army for a few years and knowing military affairs, he can also share the worries of the general in the future. ”

He Jin is good to himself, and He Bai naturally can't be too ruthless. He Jin's son He Xian didn't know how he died, like a person like him who was unknown in history, He Bai didn't know his life and death. It is likely that after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he was killed by Dong Zhuo. Just in case, He Bai had to take it away and protect it, which can be regarded as He Jin's reward for helping him.

"Okay, well, Ziquan's body is too weak, it's time to go to the army and feel the anger of the men in the army, what Tianming thinks is exactly what I want." He Jin asked with some hesitation: "It's just that Tianming won't wait for his uncle to get rid of the eunuchs before going on the expedition?" ”

He Bai said: "This matter is just Bai's plan, and we still need to wait for my uncle's approval." The preparation time for the expedition is not short, but it will take one or two months, and it may not take until August. At that time, I believe that my uncle has already decided everything. ”

He Jin nodded with satisfaction and agreed with He Bai's plan, and after He Bai's suggestion, He Jin took He Bai as the Beihai Phase, the real 2,000 stones, and the Moon Valley 150 Hu. He Xian is the county magistrate of Beihai Opera County, 600 stones, and 70 Hu in the Moon Valley. And He Baitong led the Xiyuan army to Beihai to take office, and after the Yellow Turban was extinguished, the Xiyuan army returned to the building.

After getting He Jin's appointment, He Bai was secretly happy in his heart, some people in the court are good officials, even if they are from a family, they do not have the high position of being the prime minister of a country at such a young age. Even Cao Cao was about thirty years old when he became the prime minister of Jinan. Liu Bei, if you want to be the prime minister of the plains, why do you have to wait for another three years. When the time comes, there is oneself, and it is not certain whether it can be one. This is the benefit of knowing history in advance, and any golden finger is false.

On the second day, He Bai took He Xian to the Xiyuan Army, He Xian was so weak that he couldn't even ride a horse, He Bai had no choice but to let him go in a carriage. He Jin was not worried about He Xian's safety, so he specially assigned a hundred elite soldiers to accompany him, and He Jin's henchman Zhang Zhang commanded him.

Zhang Zhang was originally the Sima of the other department of the General's Mansion, and he was the chief officer of one of the five personal soldiers who guarded He Jin full-time. Because there is no direct commander under the command, but by the general He Jin personally commanded, although he is a Sima of another department, but his status is quite high. At this time, he was demoted to the county lieutenant of Beihai Guoju County, and he would definitely not be happy to say that he was happy. But he also knows that if he can protect He Xian, the eldest son of the general, his future future will definitely be limitless. So I agreed aggrievedly.

After He Bai and his entourage came to the military camp in Xiyuan, they saw that the soldiers in the camp were gloomy, and it seemed that something big had happened. He Bai wanted to take away all the officers and soldiers of the lower army and the full battalion, so he had to be concerned about them.

"Why are you so indignant?"

"Captain." Sima Zhao Zhi of the Chinese army said angrily: "Since the collapse of His Majesty the First Emperor, our treatment has deteriorated. Since two months ago, the food standard has been halved, and there is no alcohol and meat. By the day before yesterday, we were only half-fed for food. ”

He Bai was shocked, could it be that the Yuan family deliberately targeted himself? So he asked anxiously, "What is the reason for this fall?" Is it just that I am in the first battalion? Why didn't you tell me earlier? ”

Zhao Zhi bowed and said: "It's not my battalion of the army, but my entire Xiyuan army." ”

After He Bai heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be the entire Xiyuan Army, not for himself.

"At the beginning, the food was halved, there was no wine and meat, and the grain officer said that when he received grain and grass in Beijing, a noble man said: The first emperor just died, and it is not suitable to eat wine and meat in the army. When the first emperor was there, he treated us very kindly, and we listened to it reasonably, so I agreed, and did not tell the captain. I don't want to do it recently, the grain and grass are short, and the corn is mixed with floating soil and sand and stones. There is no shortage of food for corruption. ”

He Bai was stunned, and immediately woke up, this is someone who has embezzled from it, so he deducted military salaries, and pretended to mourn Emperor Han Ling.

"After that, we wanted to tell the captain, and the captain would make the decision for us. I don't want anyone from other armies to come back from Beijing and say: This matter was done by the people of the Yuan clan in Runan. Since the general said that he was ill due to rumors, the Yuan clan was in charge of state affairs, and in order to win over and buy the court officials for the Yuan clan's use, he wantonly embezzled our food and salary. I was afraid that the captain would not be able to do anything about the Yuan family, so I didn't tell the captain. ”

"Yesterday, we and the army Sima jointly wrote to the general, hoping that the general can make the decision for us. When I didn't want to go to Beijing again to get grain and grass today, Taicang Ling actually said: Yuan's has an order, such as raising eagles, if you are hungry, you will be attached, if you are full, you will be hot, if you are cold, you will be abandoned, and people will be in trouble. Therefore, grain and grass will not be given, unless we are willing to bribe the Yuan family. ”

He Bai was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he didn't want the Yuan family to have such a way of dying. It is necessary to know that the Xiyuan Army is an arrogant and arrogant general raised by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, so it is strange that the Xiyuan Army can be obedient and obedient to its orders. It is no wonder that in history, since He Jin's death, the Yuan family has Yuan Kui, the Taifu, Yuan Shao, the captain of the Division, and the former captain of the Xiyuan Zuo Military Academy. Instead, he was co-opted by Dong Zhuo, who had just arrived in Luoyang.

Alas, after the Luoyang Rebellion, it was not for nothing that the Yuan family completely lost the power of the court. However, at this time, it is a great opportunity for me to show my favor to the West Park Army, and I must not grasp it well.

He Bai couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "He Zhubo (He Xian), I order you to return to Beijing as soon as possible, go to the General's Mansion, and ask the General to quickly allocate the grain and grass for the entire army of the Xiyuan Army in March, and you need to do it as before." ”

He Xian glanced at He Bai's inexplicable cousin sadly, he wanted to be an idle court official under He Jin's Yu Ji, but he was pulled by He Bai to be the head of the Xiyuan Army, and he would go to Qingzhou to take up the post of Beihai National Opera County Commander in the future. And he just arrived at the barracks today and didn't catch his breath, and was immediately driven back to Luoyang City. He Xian couldn't help but think angrily, he won't come back if he goes back.

"Whoa." He Xian responded weakly and led Zhang Zhang back again.

Zhao Zhi said hesitantly: "Captain, it's just that Master He went to the General's Mansion alone, I'm afraid it won't be very helpful." We and other armies have been connected in tandem, and we decided to go to the Beijing division together and ask the Yuan family for food. ”

He Bai was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Please also give He Bai a chance, if He Bai can't let He Zhubo ask for food, He Bai is willing to go bankrupt to buy grain to appease the army, I just hope that the army will not be impatient to the Beijing Division, but I am afraid that it will cause a big disaster, and it will not end well." ”

After speaking, He Bai called out Luo Pei again and said: "Zengzhi, you quickly go back to the Jingshi Mansion to get money, and go to the rice market in the East City to buy grain." You can buy as much as you can, and don't necessarily make the soldiers and horses of the whole army in the West Garden have enough grain and grass to use. ”

Zhao Zhi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Lord Lieutenant doesn't know, although there are only 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xiyuan, we need to calculate the grain and grass according to the number of 200,000 people. The cost of grain, grass, wine and meat alone in a year is enough to be as much as 400 million yuan, and no matter how much money Lord Ren has, I am afraid that I will not be able to support me for a long time. ”

He Bai breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I thought it was four billion dollars, although I don't have 400 million dollars now, I still have 40 million dollars." It was more than enough time to wait for a month. What's the matter, can you sell me face? ”

Zhao Zhi and the others knelt down gratefully and said: "The captain is righteous, I am convinced, and I dare not obey." I also ask the captain to wait, I will wait to stop the army and the army, and leave everything to the captain. ”

After Zhao Zhi and other generals left one after another and returned one after another, he bowed again: "Sima Yan of the Zhujun said: Thanks to the righteousness of Captain He of the lower army, the troops are grateful, so they will listen to the order of Captain He, and the matter of agitating the camp can be suspended. But after a month, if the Yuan clan dared to withhold grain and grass like this, the armies would rebel. ”

He Bai breathed a sigh of relief, and was overjoyed in his heart, although the Xiyuan Army could not defect in the future, it would definitely have a good impression of himself. And the whole battalion of the army, I am afraid that it will be more convincing to itself, and it should not be a problem to pull the whole battalion away.

At night, He Bai, who was still anxiously waiting for the news, and five Simas, five fake Simas, ten military marquis, ten military marquis, and ten tooth generals sat in the main tent and waited quietly. In the next month, the Xiyuan Army will only eat He Bai's personal food, and after a month, He Bai will not be able to stop the anger of the whole army.

"Report ...... Lord Lieutenant, the general knew about the West Garden Army, and said that early tomorrow morning, he would send 5,000 carts of grain and grass to look at the West Garden. He said that the mission has been completed, so he will stay overnight in Beijing, and will arrive with the grain truck early tomorrow morning. ”

Zhao Zhi and the others still didn't believe it when they heard this, and He Bai could handle this matter easily. I don't believe it, but at least I can get a good night's sleep. By the afternoon of the second day, 5,000 carts of grain and grass were surging from Luoyang City, which was the same as the half-moon grain and grass of the entire army of the Pingsu Xiyuan Army, and the whole army suddenly boiled. Bursts of calls immediately sounded in the garden, from the initial chaos to the final convergence, finally forming a unity.

"Captain He Gaoyi, long live the general, long live ......"
