Dong Zhao is here?
Cao Cao quickly ordered: "Quick, invite him in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Dong Zhao, Guo Jia, and Ding Chong rushing in to salute him. Cao Cao returned the favor first and hurriedly asked Dong Zhao: "Gongren, what's going on over there in Luyang? Did Yang Feng suffer a loss under Luyang City?"
Dong Zhao replied with admiration: "Mingshi Jun is indeed wise. Yang Feng was indeed destroyed by the emperor's falling stone method under Luyang City. Although the damage was not much, the morale of the army has been shaken!"
"What?" Cao Cao was shocked, "Dong Cheng only has 500 capable soldiers at hand, how can he defeat Yang Feng's more than 10,000 people? Also, what is the method of falling rocks?"
"Ming Shijun," Guo Jia reminded, "the method of falling rocks is the method of flying rocks. It has been around since ancient times and is recorded in Fan Li's Art of War."
After being reminded by Guo Jiayi, Cao Cao also remembered, "There seems to be such a thing. I remember that it can only use ten or twenty kilograms of stone to destroy Yang Feng's army of ten thousand people."
Dong Zhao said: "It's because all Yang Feng's subordinates are superstitious about magic. The people at the top and below know very little about magic. They thought that the flying stones were meteorites from heaven conjured by the emperor with magic! And when the little emperor was about to go into battle, he asked the generals to fly. Phew: The emperor is mighty and has boundless power..."
"The emperor is on the verge of battle?" Cao Cao interrupted, "Can the emperor still be on the verge of battle?"
Dong Zhao nodded: "This morning, the emperor first sat at the north gate of Luyang and commanded the battle. Then he wore black iron armor and held a snake-cutting sword. He led the crowd and defeated Xu Gongming, the general under Yang Cheqi's command! "
The emperor defeated Xu Huang?
Cao Cao couldn't believe this scene. Xu Huang was a fierce general, but he was defeated by the emperor... There must be a trick!
"Ming Shijun, Xu Gongming was born in Hedong County. When he was in Chang'an and later when the emperor moved eastward, he was loyal to the emperor in words and deeds!" Ding Chong reminded Cao Cao at this time, "Could he have been the emperor's man long ago? Already?"
Cao Cao nodded heavily: "It must be so!"
Guo Jiajin said: "Mingshijun, our army can no longer stay on the south bank of the Nian River. Please order Mingshijun to march overnight to save the emperor from danger!"
Cao Cao looked loyal, nodded slightly and said, "The words of filial piety are exactly what I want!"
...
When night falls over the earth, the lights at the Luyang County Temple are still brightly lit, just like daytime.
The young emperor Liu Xie, who had just finished rescuing the wounded and dying, was sitting on a couch, chewing rolls and drinking fish soup, while talking to dozens of wounded soldiers of the Baibo Army who had just been rescued by him and the medical officers accompanying the army.
"Eat some. After you finish eating, I will ask General Wei to escort you out of the city."
When they heard that the little emperor was about to send him out of the city, the wounded soldiers of the Baibo Army who had finally met a true god immediately gave up and burst into tears.
"Tianjia, we don't want to go back to the traitor again!"
"Tianjia, after I recover from my injuries, I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"
"Tianjia, I have died once, and I have nothing to fear from now on. Whoever dares to oppose the emperor, I will fight with him!"
"Tianjia, you are a god who can revive the dead. From now on, if I don't believe in Taiping Tao, I will believe in Your Majesty!"
Liu Xie was so happy! It is indeed easy to get dead soldiers by pretending to be gods. This truth has been tested by the Prophet Muhammad of the West and the Holy Son Hong of the East. However, the dozens of people in front of me are still too few. Yang Feng's two thousand armored white waves look very good! There is also Xu Huang, a famous general who defeated the Second Master of Guan. If he can be recruited to be Liu Xie's leader of the dead soldiers, wouldn't the emperor of Luoyi be stable?
Thinking of this, he shook his head with a smile and said: "I know your loyalty, and I also know that you were deceived by Zhang Jiao, Han Xian, Yang Feng and others, and you went astray. If you are willing to follow me, I can't help but ask for it. . But I did some calculations... I found that the master-slave relationship between you and Yang Feng is about to end. You go back first and settle the relationship with Yang Feng. In a few days, you and Xu will be together. There are many other Baibo warriors in Gongming, they are all my warriors of Yulin, Huben, Sword and Halberd!"
Yulin, Huben, and Jianjishi are all positions within the system that receive royal food. Among them, Yulin, Huben, and Jianjishi at the lowest level also have a salary of 8 dendrobium per month, and the money and food are different. Half. Although it is not much, it is much stronger than being a soldier of the Baibo Army!
Liu Xie first drew a big pie, and then began to make friends with these Baibo warriors. He said: "You and other Baibo warriors are all the sons of Hedong among the Three Rivers. After Guangwu Zhongxing, the fifth battalion of the Northern Army, Yulin, and Huben, As well as the guards under the jurisdiction of the guards, they all came from Sanhe. And I am also from Sanhe, so I can be considered a fellow countryman with you!"
The "three rivers" he mentioned are Henan Yin, Hanoi County, and Hedong County. The ruling centers of the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties were all Sili Qijun, but the emphasis of the two Han Dynasties was different. The Western Han Dynasty had Chang'an as its capital, so naturally the three assistants, namely Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, and You Fufeng, were the most important. When the Eastern Han Dynasty established Luoyang as its capital, the three rivers around Luoyang, namely Henan Yin, Henei County, and Hedong County, were the top priority.
In addition, the Eastern Han Dynasty implemented a recruitment system. Most local counties did not have standing armies and recruited troops temporarily in case of war. The Central Forbidden Army mostly recruited from Sanhe, that is, Henan Yin, Hanoi County, and Hedong County to show its favor for the warriors of Sanhe.
Because the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty lived in Luoyang, he was considered a Sanhe native and a fellow countryman with the Sanhe warriors. During the Three Kingdoms era of the Eastern Han Dynasty, more emphasis was placed on local sentiments, and there were often serious "rural party plots" among various forces. For example, Dong Zhuo relied on people from Liangzhou, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who were from Yuzhou, both relied on Yuzhou gentry, and Tao Qian relied on Danyang people.
The emperor Liu Xie is from Sanhe, so it is natural for him to value the Baibo army in Hedong, and the strong men of Baibo should also be close to Liu Xie, the little emperor with boundless power. After hearing what the little emperor said, these wounded soldiers of the Baibo Army suddenly felt that the little emperor was much more friendly.
At this time, someone asked again: "Tianjia, Yang Cheqi and Han Zhengdong are also from Hedong, where should they go?"
When Liu Xie heard this, he took out a small abacus, pretended to fiddle with it a few times, and then said with a smile: "I have calculated that they are going to Yuan Highway in Huainan... When you see them when you go back, remember to tell them, Cao Mengde's army will arrive in Luyang soon, and even Liang County will be captured by Cao's soldiers. If they move slowly, they may be dead!"
After saying these words, the little emperor turned to look at Zhong Yao, who was kneeling beside him: "Yuan Chang, please bring some people to send these Hedong warriors out of the city!"
Zhong Yao knew Cao Cao's arrangement, and was of course secretly shocked when he heard that Liu Xie had "calculated" everything one by one. Whether this little emperor is really capable of calculation or he relies on his extraordinary intelligence to deduce Cao Cao's layout, he is not a mortal!
Could it be that this Han Dynasty...can still be maintained?
If the Han Dynasty can be maintained, then he is now the minister of public affairs... Although he is only an official of 600 shi, he has great power. He is the one below the four ministers! If you work hard, you may be able to rank among the top three in a few years!
He was so engrossed in his thoughts that for a while he didn't even hear Liu Xie's order to send Bai Bo's wounded soldiers out of the city. Only after Yang Xiu reminded him did he realize that he had lost his temper and quickly apologized to Liu Xie.
Liu Xie waved his hand and said with a smile: "Yuan Chang, you are tired...you haven't slept for two days, right? I'm tired too, so I'll stop here today. Yuan Chang, after you finish sending off these Hedong warriors, After that, go back and rest early. Meng De should arrive by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, and we should be busy again!"
He said these words in front of a group of injured soldiers of the Baibo Army who were about to be released. After finishing speaking, he stood up and walked to the Baibo Army warrior named Xi Jiuqian who was resurrected by him. He has already inquired. Xi Jiuqian is not an ordinary soldier, but a Qujunhou. He is also very senior and seems to have high prestige. At this moment, several wounded soldiers with slightly less serious injuries are taking care of them spontaneously. he.
Seeing Liu Xie approaching, the few Bai Bojun who could still move stood up and wanted to salute Liu Xie. Liu Xie quickly waved his hand to stop them, then picked up his robe and squatted next to Xi Jiuqian, who was lying on a simple stretcher, and asked with concern: "Jiu Qian, are you feeling better?"
"Heaven's great kindness..." Xi Jiuqian was already crying with gratitude.
Life-saving grace, and not just any ordinary life-saving grace, but bringing the dead back to life! In Xi Jiuqian's eyes, the emperor is no longer an ordinary emperor, but an immortal emperor!
"Nine thousand," Liu Xie asked with a smile, "Are you Xu Gongming's subordinate?"
"Yes, that's right."
"What does it mean?" Liu Xie was a little confused.
"small......"
"Don't be too young, be a minister! I just met you. You will be a loyal minister of my Han family in the future, and you can definitely be made a marquis!"
Be a Marquis!
The upper limit that most men in the Han Dynasty could reach was county marquis! Although Liu Xie didn't tell Xi Jiuqian what title he could be granted, it was enough to gain his loyalty.
In fact, in addition to loyalty, Xi Jiuqian also has "faith" and faith in Liu Xie!
The background of the White Wave Army is still the Yellow Turban Army, which is the sectarian armed force of Taiping Dao. Faith is the strength that unites the soldiers of the White Wave Army. The source of the belief is the set of spells promoted by Zhang Jiao that are not very effective in practice!
And now, these Baibo Army soldiers have discovered a spell that is a hundred times more effective than the spells of Taiping Dao. They can not only summon the sky stone, but also bring the dead back to life... Isn't it obvious who to believe and who not to believe?
After all, Taipingdao is just a sect that was created in the first place. It is not very deep-rooted, and believers can easily convert.
So Liu Xie soon saw the light of piety in Xi Jiuqian's eyes...piety towards him, the emperor!
"I am a subordinate of Baibo Army Sima Fengmingshan, and Xu Gongming was worshiped as the Commander-in-Chief and was the superior officer of Feng Sima. In addition, Captain Xu also led an Army Sima Department." Xi Jiuqian said to Liu Xiejie, "But Feng Sima and Xu Du We are like brothers and sisters, and we are like brothers!"
"Okay!" Liu Xie nodded and whispered: "Then I will write a personal letter to Xu Gongming and Fengmingshan each. Can you take it to them for me?"
"Okay, okay!" Xi Jiuqian nodded heavily, and several colleagues around him also nodded together.
The emperor is the real immortal, but their heavenly generals have been gone for many years... If they really knew the magic of immortality, why would they be like this? It seems it’s time to convert to the emperor!
