Chapter 247: The Fujiao Army Advances East

Zhang Jiao was suppressing the battle behind him, and he kept coughing while riding on his horse. Although he was far away from the battlefield of fighting, he could not see the specific situation, but Huangfu Song's car was very high and he could see the car!

When he saw the building collapse, Zhang Jiao coughed loudly, covered his chest with one hand and pointed the direction of the building with the other hand. His face turned red and he couldn't speak, but his expression was anxious. He seemed to be asking what was going on in the building!

A huge Yellow Turban General said, "General God, let's take a look!" He urged the horse to rush to the battlefield and rushed to the side of the cart.

Zhang Jiao and his confidant generals were all very nervous. They all hoped to beat Huangfu Song to death, but they couldn't believe they would be beaten to death. They were all extremely poor people from the bottom. In the past, high-ranking officials like Huangfu Song were unattainable in their hearts. Being able to fight against such a big man was already an unexpected big thing for them. If Huangfu Song could be beaten to death, it would be a miracle that could never be imagined in a dream or even no matter how hard they thought!

After a while, the shouts came. The Yellow Turban General was not needed to lead the way back to report. The Yellow Turban soldiers' cheers told them the result!

The Yellow Turban soldiers on the other side of the cart were cheering and yelling: "Huangfu Song is dead, General Dog is dead, let's kill the leader of the Dog Officer!"

The Yellow Turban soldiers hated the government deeply. When they called people in the government, they often added the word "dog" in front of them. The emperor was called the dog emperor, and the minister was called the dog minister, and the general naturally could only be the dog general!

Zhang Jiao shook his body, and he said hoarsely: "Huangfu Song was killed? This old thief finally died. We won, we won!"

All the Yellow Turban soldiers shouted, and the soldiers and generals were very excited. The more they fought, they became more courageous and rushed towards the Han soldiers even more desperately. When the Han soldiers heard that Huangfu Song was dead, they turned to look at the cart and saw that the cart had fallen. It was obvious that the Yellow Turban soldiers did not lie, not bluffing. Huangfu Song was really dead. The Han soldiers were in chaos and the leading generals were all dead. Then what else would they fight? They could only escape!

The Han soldiers were unscrupulous and turned around and fled. They didn't want the camp and the tent. Those with horses ran away on horses, while those without horses had to scatter. The Han soldiers retreated to the west!

The Yellow Turban Army took advantage of the victory and followed the Han soldiers to slap and slap them. They chased for about twenty miles in one breath and beheaded countless times. Then they were led by Zhang Bao and sang a triumphant song. It was not until this time that the Yellow Turban Army brigade that came out of Julu arrived. Under Zhang Jiao's command, the Yellow Turban Army rushed into the Han soldiers' camp and robbed them, first come first served, and whoever grabbed the good things first would be who would!

Fortunately, the Han soldiers had collapsed and fled in full swing. Otherwise, with the chaos of the Yellow Turban soldiers, the Han soldiers could defeat 300,000 Yellow Turban soldiers with just one rush back. It was their turn to chase the Yellow Turban soldiers and slash and kill them!

The Zhang Jiao brothers had a little worse method in terms of restraining the army, and after such a great victory, they were all over the joy and ignored the Yellow Turban soldiers and allowed their subordinates to rob them. The generals surrounded Zhang Jiao and praised them all and tried their best to praise them. They all said that the plan of the God General was really wonderful, and in just one day, the official army was defeated.

Not only did the generals under his command think that the rebellion would be victorious, but even Zhang Jiao had this unrealistic idea. Although what he did was the same as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, he did not think that he would have the same fate as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. He now doesn't even admire the King of Western Chu, and directly imagined himself as Liu Bang, the Emperor of Han, imagining that he might establish a dynasty and that he could become the emperor himself!

The Yellow Turban Army celebrated for several days in a row. From a military perspective, they missed the best opportunity to expand the results of the war, but from the perspective of recruitment, the effect was excellent. The people and poor families who were once swaying, hated the government, but did not dare to join the Yellow Turban Army, saw hope from this victory. They felt that rebelling with Zhang Jiao was a promising cause, so they all came to join!

However, in a few days, the Yellow Turban Army actually expanded another 100,000 people, and the army expanded again, while people from all over the country were still coming in endlessly!

In a state of ecstasy, Zhang Jiao ordered the entire army to set out and attack westward to attack Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty!

The official army was defeated, Huangfu Song died in battle, and Yuan Shao was unaware of his life and death, and the news had already spread to Luoyang. Luoyang was shocked three times a day. This news was too huge and no one could hide it. Not only was He Jin so anxious that he was as mad dog, but even Zhang Rang and the Ten General Staff were scared!

In the war to suppress the rebels internally, there has never been such a huge loss since the Eastern Han Dynasty. General Zuo Zhonglang, who led the troops, was killed, and General Hu Ben, who led the troops in the Yulin Army, was beaten to no avail. In the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty for more than 100 years, there has never been such a big defeat. The official army that went to suppress was beaten to pieces and ran away, and only a few thousand people ran back to Luoyang. The rest were unknown where the rest. The court had no direct army to send, so they could only rely on reinforcements from various places!

Emperor Liu Hong didn't care about having fun anymore. If he continued to have fun, he probably wouldn't have the chance to have fun anymore. The Yellow Turban soldiers had already rushed to the west, and Luoyang was in danger!

In a panic, Liu Hong held a grand court meeting. He sat behind Long Shu's case and slapped the table and said angrily: "He Jin, didn't you say that as long as Yuan Shao was sent to fight, you would definitely be able to eliminate the Yellow Turban thieves? Now, where did Yuan Shao escape? Also, the Yellow Turban thieves now know that the capital is empty, so he came with the rebels. What should I do now? You go to block them, you go to block them!"

Liu Hong was most afraid of trouble. He had no ambitions to be an emperor. He could eat, drink and have fun and live his life well. But now the less he wanted to trouble, the more trouble he would come to him. And it was not a small trouble. The thief was almost attacked Luoyang. What should he do? If he knew what to do, he would not lose his temper!

He Jin gritted his teeth and left the court. He didn't expect that Yuan Shao was so useless. He usually brags about how powerful the new recruits he trained were, but Zhang Jiao beaten them in just one battle and couldn't find them. If he could think of such a result, he wouldn't recommend Yuan Shao to lead the troops if he beat him to death!

He Jin said: "Your Majesty, I have missed my supervision. I don't want Yuan Shao to be so incompetent. Please ask Your Majesty to punish me for your crime!" But he didn't wait for Liu Hong to say how damn he deserved to be jailed, and he just paused, and rushed to say: "But your Majesty doesn't have to worry. Although Huangfu Song and Yuan Shao were defeated, we have other troops. The king-supporting troops from all over the country have arrived one after another, especially Li Qin's Fujiao Army, which has arrived in Chang'an and will come east soon. As soon as Li Qin arrives, the doomsday of the Yellow Turban thieves will arrive!"

Liu Hong slapped his face and hurriedly said, "Yes, I have Li Qin. Li Lang is the best warrior. No one can beat him. As long as he comes, the Yellow Turban Thief will be defeated by him. But why didn't he come yet? Didn't he come to Chang'an long ago? That person, that person comes, who ran back from Chang'an to serve the king..."

In a hurry, Liu Hong couldn't remember the Sili Captain Zhang Wen, who was calling out!

As the Sili Captain, Zhang Wen is ranked above the Nine Ministers, and is definitely a top-ranking official. However, he does not serve in the capital and has less chances to meet Liu Hong. However, for such a high-ranking official, Liu Hong did not remember his name, which really made him feel sorry for him!

Zhang Wen came from the court with a wry smile and said, "Your Majesty, I, Zhang Wen, is the one who came back from Chang'an to serve the king!" He was extremely dissatisfied with Liu Hong's attitude, but what could it be? He is the emperor, but he is just that person!

Liu Hong said with a sneer and said, "Yes, it's you. Zhang Wen, I ask you, why did Li Lang come to Chang'an but he has not come to Luoyang for a long time? What's the reason? Are you embarrassed by him? Tell me, why did you trouble him!"

Zhang Wen almost cried. Are you wrong? Who is it difficult for anyone to do anything? If Li Qin hadn't done anything, would I have been able to run from Chang'an to Luoyang? I really thought I was here to save the disaster!

But when he thought so in his heart, how dare he say that. Zhang Wen said: "Your Majesty, it may be because Li Qin's troops were slowly gathering, and the journey was long and the food and grass support was difficult, so he rested in Chang'an. Before he arrived in Chang'an, I had already come to Beijing, so I absolutely did not feel sorry for him. Besides, Li Qin held a heavy army, even if I wanted to do something difficult, I had to think about the head of Xiang. He killed people without blinking!"

He was extremely aggrieved, but inside and outside, he kept reminding the emperor and the civil and military officials of the court that Li Qin was not a good character. He asked him to come to defend the king and suppress the Yellow Turban thieves. Be careful that it is easy to invite the gods and difficult to send the gods, and lead the wolf into the house. If Li Qin stayed on and didn't leave and didn't return to Xiliang, everyone would be bad!

All the ministers were intelligent, so of course they could hear what he meant. Unfortunately, Emperor Liu Hong was not too smart and preconceived. Not only did he think that Li Qin could fight, but he was also very loyal to him. So no matter how straightforward Zhang Wen spoke, he still didn't hear the unauthentic taste.

Liu Hong said anxiously: "You are the Sili Captain. You are not in Chang'an to provide food and supplies to Li Qin so that he can come to suppress the Yellow Turban thieves in time, but he ran to Luoyang on his own initiative. But you are so good that you can't fight the Yellow Turban thieves. Instead, you stay in the city without knowing what's going on. You are neglecting your duties!"

Zhang Wen knelt down to Liu Hong with a pounce. He said bitterly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to bring up the tiger and wolf army and rush to suppress the Yellow Turban thieves. I ask for the battle, I hope your Majesty will allow you!" There is no other way. In this regard, if he doesn't ask for the battle, wouldn't he become a greedy person who is afraid of death?

But when Zhang Wen asked for a fight, Liu Hong did not agree. He said, "The capital is empty. If you leave the city, who will protect me? Just leave it to Li Qin for suppressing the Yellow Turban Thieves!"

He turned his head and called Zhang Rang, saying, "I will draw an order to send it to Li Qin, and let him arrive in the capital in three days. If he can't, I will punish him!"

Zhang Rangyi grinned and said, "Your Majesty, how can you arrive in three days from Chang'an to Luoyang? You must not run away to death? Besides, the people sent to Li Qin to deliver the orders will also take time on the way!"

Liu Hong was furious and slapped the table, saying, "Why are there so much nonsense? You don't even listen to me? I said three days, only three days!" He thought about it and felt it was indeed a bit difficult, so he said generously: "I won't forget it today, but I will count three days from tomorrow!"

Zhang Rang thought to himself: "This is treating Li Qin as a god!" He didn't dare to say anything else, so he quickly drafted an imperial edict and asked someone to send it to Li Qin, forcing Li Qin to arrive in Luoyang in three days!
