Chapter Thirty-ninth Read the report carefully
"You are all curious, Gan Lai, please introduce yourself!" Liu Qing said with a smile.
Gan Lai was a little embarrassed. After all, he did not have a glorious past, so he lowered his voice and said: "My real name is Luo Ku. Gan Lai is the cousin given by the lord. Before I went to the lord, I was Peng Tuo's dog-headed military advisor."
Ha? Guo Jia smacked his lips, quite surprised. He had speculated on several identities in his mind, but no one knew they were all very different. He turned out to be a Yellow Turban, and the lord treated him the same as everyone else!
With such a big heart, it’s no wonder that we can gather such talented people.
System: It is detected that Guo Jia's loyalty has increased by 10%, currently 80%
Huh? Liu Qing was also surprised, Fengxiao, what's wrong with you? Do you think your lord has conquered the Yellow Turban Army and has the world in mind?
Xun Yu looked at the chicken in front of Gan Lai, thoughtfully.
"The fourth thing is from Jizhou." Liu Qing said, raising another letter in his hand and gathering everyone's attention. "The news from Jizhou is that Beizhonglang general Lu Zhi repeatedly defeated Zhang Jiao and recovered a large area of lost territory.
Zhang Jiao retreated to Guangzong and defended the city. Lu Zhi adopted the strategy of trench siege and built siege equipment on the spot. However, His Majesty the Emperor sent the eunuch Zuo Feng to supervise the army. Zuo Feng asked Lu Zhi for a bribe, but Lu Zhi refused.
The relationship between the two is extremely tense, I’m afraid Guangzong won’t be able to capture it.”
Moreover, Zuo Feng could leave the Jizhou front line at any time and go back to slander Liu Hongjin and frame Lu Zhi. They played this trick very smoothly.
"There is nothing wrong with General Lu Zhonglang's strategy, it just takes some time." Guo Jiadao.
Xun Yu took over and said, "But this will be a breakthrough for Zuo Feng to capture Beizhong Lang. The eunuchs will falsely accuse Beizhong Lang of being passive and lazy in the war. If the imperial court disposes of Lu Zhi, Jizhou's current victory may come to an end."
Guo Jia smiled and said: "If we fail, wouldn't it be playing into the master's hands? We have an opportunity to show off our skills. The master is from Jizhou, so we should have made arrangements in advance."
Liu Qing: I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
"Fengxiao, you can go to a brothel, but you can't talk nonsense!"
Liu Qing's words made several people laugh, but Guo Jia was the only one who was stunned.
Lord, are we discussing a major matter? Can such a thing be discussed on the table?
"The situation in Jizhou is complicated. I want to work with Huangfu Song to pacify Busi first, and then return to Jizhou. Zilong will catch up with us. Now we are waiting for the order from the imperial court."
Three days later, Luoyang went to court in the morning.
Taiwei Yuan Wei announced to the court the military report he received last night, "Your Majesty, the left Zhonglang general Huangfu Song, the right Zhonglang general Zhu Jun, and the cavalry captain Cao Cao, have defeated the wave at Changshe, and now the wave has been defeated."
The head has just been delivered to Kyoto!"
When Liu Hong heard this, he sat up in shock and shouted: "Okay! General Huangfu is worthy of being the pillar of the Han Dynasty. Tell me how they won!"
"This..." Yuan Wei didn't know how to speak. He knew that His Majesty hated that name, so when he reported the report, he only mentioned the result and selectively ignored the name. But if he wanted to talk about the details, that name
It is extremely avoidable no matter what, because he is so important!
"Say it!" Liu Hong shouted.
"Your Majesty, the key to defeating Bocai lies in a fire. Generals Huangfu and Zhu Jun took advantage of the fire to defeat Bocai's army. During his escape, Bocai ran into Cao Cao, the Cavalry Commander, and was hit hard again. The three generals pursued him.
After killing Bo for dozens of miles, we finally took his head at the foot of Yangzhai City!"
"That's it! General Huangfu and General Zhu Jun seized the opportunity to defeat Bocai in one battle and relieved the siege of Changshe. How should we reward them for such unparalleled achievements?"
Yuan Wei breathed a sigh of relief, the matter was finally revealed.
He Jin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, in order to show that the court attaches great importance to it, I suggest that you be granted the title of Marquis directly!"
"I also have this intention. Then I will make Huangfu Song the Marquis of Duxiang and Zhu Jun the Marquis of Xixiang. As for Cao Cao, let's wait until he returns to the capital and resumes his duties before conferring rewards!"
All the officials were in an uproar. One of them was the Marquis of the Countryside. The Yellow Turban Rebellion has not yet been settled. When Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun put down the Yellow Turbans, wouldn't it be possible to seal him again?
Yuan Wei continued: "Your Majesty, Cao Cao please go to Dongjun to quell the chaos."
"What do you think?"
He Jin said: "Your Majesty, I think it is feasible, and Dongjun Busi's troops are strong. I think we should go to Dongjun with Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun's tribe should take advantage of the victory to pursue the remaining Yellow Turbans and pacify the three counties in one fell swoop."
"Performed by the quasi-general! Is there any news from Jizhou?"
At this time, Zhang Rang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Zuo Feng has reported that Lu Zhi has defeated Zhang Jiao's troops of the Yellow Turban Army in a row and recovered most of the counties in Jizhou. Now the Yellow Turbans are trapped in the small Guangzong, which can be broken with a finger. But Lu Zhi stayed around and watched him recover, there must be something hidden in it."
"Immediately urge Lu Zhi to start the war as soon as possible. If not, he will be dismissed and investigated!" Liu Hong paused and said: "Confucian scholars are Confucian scholars. It is better to leave the matter of quelling the chaos to the general!"
At Liu Hong's words, all the Confucian officials in the court lowered their heads and gritted their teeth.
"Is there anything else to start?"
All the officials were silent and waited for the court to disperse.
Unexpectedly, Liu Hong changed his usual routine and suddenly said: "I'm not sleepy today. Lieutenant, please tell me again which general caused the huge fire in the battle of Changshe."
When Yuan Wei heard this, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat. Why did he keep going around like this!
It seems that we can't stop today.
"Your Majesty, it's..." Yuan Wei tried to speak, but was interrupted by Liu Hong.
"Wait a minute! Why don't you ask your ministers to guess, who is General Huangfu who is good at fighting, or Zhu Jun who is unsmiling? General, you come first!" Liu Hong became interested and asked He Jin with a smile.
"I guess it's General Huangfu."
"Situ!"
"The old minister guessed that it was General Huangfu!"
"Zhang Sikong!"
"I guess it's General Zhu!"
"Is there anything else you want to guess? Zhang Changshi?"
"Your Majesty, I guess it was your Majesty who set the fire. Then General Huangfu and General Zhu were sent by you, weren't they?" Zhang Rang said in a sinister voice.
"Hahaha! What Zhang Changshi said is absolutely true! No matter who it is, they are all sent by me! Lieutenant, please announce the answer!" Liu Hong shouted loudly.
Yuan Wei's face looked ugly. After holding it in for a long time, he finally made up his mind and said: "Your Majesty, the person who attacked Bocai with fire is not General Huangfu or General Zhu, but - Liu Qing!"
Liu Qing!
As soon as this name appeared, the hearts of all the officials trembled. How the last court meeting ended in nothing was still fresh in their memories.
When Liu Hong heard this name, the interest on his face suddenly disappeared, and the blood color caused by excitement also receded like a tide, and his face returned to that pale face, even slightly blue.
"Liu Qing..." He murmured softly.
