Yan San opened the door, and his mother-in-law immediately turned around, looked at him blankly for a while, and said, "I didn't think you could come back."
"Mom, don't worry, let's see what my son brought." Yan San said, taking out a few valuable items from his arms, "My son led the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers rewarded him."
His mother-in-law was not fascinated by those gold and jade coins, but her eyes fell on a document on the broken table.
"My mother is illiterate, what's wrong with her? The officers and soldiers told me that if I wanted to join the army, if I heard about the Guangwu Army, I would use it to join the army. I would be considered a veteran."
"Don't join the army, don't join the army."
Seeing the mother-in-law shaking her head, Yan San's two brothers took out their documents from their arms, threw them into the stove and burned them, saying: "Don't bother God, my sons are not going anywhere."
When they reached out to take Yan San's piece, he quickly stretched out his hand, put it back into his arms, and said with a playful smile: "Just keep it in mind, how many times can you do such a big thing."
"Mojiao rebels have met and want your life."
"How can the rebel army become a force? What if I use it to replace an official?"
"The beauty you thought about burned."
Yan San agreed, but he went out hunting with his homemade bow. He walked by the swamp, but he didn't hit a single bird.
After leading the soldiers a few days ago, General Jiang asked him, "Do you want to follow me? You have three brothers in your family anyway."
He was a little tempted at the time, thinking that he would become prosperous from now on. But his brothers said that if he went there, he would more likely die. So he did not go, and General Jiang did not force him. But when he returned to Wacun, he suddenly
I feel that this world is so small.
He spread out the copy of Tuan Lian Gao Shen he had collected in his arms. He used to only recognize the character "三" on it, but now he also recognized the character "闫".
"Three, three, you are locked in this 'door'."
The days passed in such a dull and boring way. News of the victory of the officers and soldiers came. Several respected old people in the village said that Hebei would soon be liberated and salt would be available.
Yan San's two brothers regretted that they had burned the regiment. Yan thought about it three times, but he walked to Qinghe County alone with it and asked the soldiers at the city gate: "The Guangwu Army is still in Qinghe."
County?"
"I don't know."
Yan San scratched his head. When he was not sure where to go, he suddenly noticed a notice posted on the city wall, with a picture of a handsome young man. He walked up and tilted his head and looked for a while, and someone patted his shoulder.
.
"Do you recognize him? Xue Bai."
"Prefect Xue?" Yan Sandao said, "The painting only has a slight resemblance."
"Recognize it?"
"I'll show him the way."
"Come with me..."
Just three days later, Helan Jinming handed a Tuan Lian petition to Bian Lingcheng.
Bian Lingcheng looked at it for a while and murmured: "It's quite decent, but what does this prove?"
Helan Jinming was eager to get evidence that Xue Bai was trying to be rebellious, and said: "Many soldiers in Qinghe County heard that they used this number. Just by looking at the word 'Guangwu', everyone knows that Xue Bai's rebellious intentions."
"Is there any other evidence?"
"Yes!" He Lan Jinming hesitated for a moment and said loudly, "There was a villager who heard with his own ears when he was leading the way that Xue Bai and his subordinates said, 'Force the saint to abdicate through rebellion and support the crown prince.'"
"Really?" Bian Lingcheng finally got the information that the saint wanted to find out and stood up.
"Absolutely true!"
That night, someone just walked up to Yan San and said, "Remember, whenever someone asks you, you will say that you heard their plot with your own ears, do you understand?"
Yan San had never seen such a battle before. He was frightened and stammered: "Who, who would ask me?"
"You don't have to worry about it. When it comes, you can just answer it."
"To...where?"
The jailer in front turned around, looked west, and uttered two words.
"Chang'an."
~~
Chang'an.
Disturbed by a rebellion, Xingqing Palace had not heard the sound of Sizhu for a long time.
The fall of the Eastern Capital caused chaos in the city of Chang'an for a long time. Fortunately, the emperor opened his internal funds and recruited many Chang'an rangers, plus twelve tribes of Hexi, Longyou, and Western Qiang, a total of 200,000 troops to guard Tongguan, and the situation was stabilized.
.
Of course, the reason why so many soldiers and horses could be mobilized in a hurry was actually based on a small number of elite northwest frontier troops and the Central Forbidden Army as the backbone, and the recruits were recruited as flesh and blood.
As for the candidate to be the commander-in-chief, the only choice was Ge Shuhan.
At that time, Ge Shuhan was in Longyou, and Li Longji hurriedly summoned him back to the court at a cost of five hundred miles, intending to appoint him as the marshal of the army. Unexpectedly, Ge Shuhan rushed back to Chang'an after a long journey, but he knelt down.
The people in the palace refused endlessly and did not dare to accept the appointment.
Li Longji tried to comfort him again and again, but in the end, Ge Shuhan had no choice but to say that the most he dared to do was to be deputy marshal of troops and horses, and he could never overstep his bounds.
This is common sense. Since ancient times, the marshal of troops and horses has mostly been borne by princes, and less has been given to ministers. Li Longji was not very happy after hearing this, thinking that Ge Shuhan was seeking a way out for himself, but now it is the time to employ people.
He had no choice but to agree to issue an edict to appoint the prince as the marshal of the world's troops and horses, and Ge Shuhan as the deputy marshal, who actually commanded the army to guard Tongguan.
In this way, Xue Bai's advice through Wang Chengye was finally realized. Li Longji thought about it and then sent an envoy to Changshan County to escort Xue Bai back to the court.
However, Ge Shuhan went even further, claiming that he was seriously ill and unable to do military affairs, and begged Yan Zhenqing to appoint Yan Zhenqing as a marching commander.
Li Longji originally had a grudge against Yan Zhenqing because he was Xue Bai's father-in-law. He suppressed Yan Zhenqing's achievements in Tubo. At this time, he had to reward Yan Zhenqing and had no choice but to appoint Yan Zhenqing as the censor Zhongcheng and the marching Sima.
After the army was hurriedly prepared, Li Longji personally went to the outskirts of the city to bid farewell to Ge Shuhan. When the army that stretched for hundreds of miles left Chang'an, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to deal with other matters.
Recently, both the emperor and the prime minister have appeared to be very diligent in their affairs, and they have been playing in the Qinzheng Tower every day.
"Sage, Gao Xianzhi came to the table again to request an audience, hoping to explain the defeat of Luoyang to the saint face to face." Yang Guozhong folded his hands in front of him, looking very respectful, but in fact he did not hold any memorial in his hands.
Li Longji didn't notice the slight hint of falsehood in his tone. He felt bored when he heard Gao Xianzhi, and immediately frowned and said, "No."
This was the third time Gao Xianzhi sent envoys to ask for an audience, but all of them were rejected without exception.
After the fall of Luoyang, Gao Xianzhi retreated to Shaanxi County, and then abandoned Shaanxi County and retreated to Tongguan. Li Longji once trusted and loved him very much, but it was precisely because of this that the greater his hope, the more disappointed and angry he became.
Because the situation was critical, I had to restrain my anger. Now that I have ordered my brother Shu Han to guard Tongguan, he must be dealt with.
The loss of Luoyang was such a huge defeat that not killing the general was not enough to satisfy his hatred. The only concern was whether killing the general before the battle would lead to criticism.
"How does Yang Qing think Gao Xianzhi should be dealt with?"
Yang Guozhong lowered his head, eyes flashing, and responded: "Luoyang was defended by 80,000 troops, but it was defeated so quickly. Even if the saint doesn't listen to Gao Xianzhi's explanation, maybe he should listen to the supervisor's explanation?"
"Is Wu Yuanzi back?" Li Longji asked to the left and right.
"The saint forgot, he has returned to Chang'an long ago." Gao Lishi realized that he had said the wrong thing as soon as he opened his mouth. It was also because there were too many and complicated things recently, and even he lost his former calmness.
Li Longji glanced sideways, feeling unhappy, and said lightly: "Summon."
Yang Guozhong thought to himself that it was Gao Xianzhi's own unlucky fault. The person supervising the army this time was not Bian Lingcheng, who had destroyed the Xiaobolu Kingdom with him. If so, Bian Lingcheng would probably protect him.
Not long after, Wu Yuanzi arrived. Like Bian Lingcheng, he was also a close servant in the palace. He had a quiet character but was able to climb to a high position because he was good at agreeing with the saint's wishes.
He returned to Chang'an more than ten days ago to wait for a meeting, but Li Longji never bothered to see him. At this time, he did not say that the saint had forgotten, but said: "The saint's hard work should still focus on the dragon body."
"I ask you, why were Luoyang and Shaanxi counties so defeated?" Li Longji refused to read Gao Xianzhi's three petitions and believed the words of those around him.
"When Gao Xianzhi arrived in Luoyang, the 80,000 soldiers he recruited were all ordinary people, and it is difficult to serve as Fan Yangxiao's elite cavalry soldiers. This is the truth." Wu Yuanzi was still a little bit intolerant. He said this first, and then he changed the topic and said: "But if we lose the defense, we can win."
So fast, I'm afraid there is another reason."
"explain."
"The sage once ordered the Luoyang warehouse to be opened to reward the soldiers to boost morale, but Gao Xianzhi withheld the soldiers' rations and rewards, causing the morale of the soldiers to waver."
Li Longji closed his eyes and had the answer to everything. It wasn't that there was something wrong with his arrangement, it turned out that the country's troubles were caused by Gao Xianzhi's greed for profit.
He waved his hand with a cold face to show that he did not want to hear any explanation from Gao Xianzhi, and said in a cold tone: "Dangzhao."
As soon as these two words came out, Yang Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief.
After exiting the main hall, he and Wu Yuanzi walked through the corridor and whispered: "General Wu has made a decision with just one word, great."
Wu Yuanzi glanced back at Qinzhenglou and said calmly: "I'm just telling the truth..."
That day, when he returned to the heavily guarded mansion, Yang Guozhong opened his locked cabinet in the study and took out Gao Xianzhi's three memorials.
He didn't call the maids, he looked around, placed a gold basin ornament in the study on the ground, lit the three memorials and threw them in. He snorted coldly as he watched the flames turn them into ashes.
"How is that possible?"
Since Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty opened the Grand Canal, Luoyang has been a major hub for river transportation in the world. Half of the grain reserves of the Tang Dynasty were stored in Hanjiacang. However, Gao Xianzhi said that Hanjiacang could not supply his 80,000 troops to defend Luoyang, which would be a disaster in the world.
Yang Guozhong didn't believe it even after he told it. If it was true, how could he, the prime minister, not know about it?
In addition, although he tried his best to cover up the matter, Hanjiacang was not corrupted by him, at least not entirely, and he could not afford to corrupt half of the world's grain reserves in just a few years.
After a while, Yang Guozhong looked at the ashes floating on the golden basin, and then he began to wonder whether his people had touched Hanjiacang, which was a war reserve. If Zahu hadn't suddenly rebelled, the so-called more than 580
Ten thousand stones are just numbers, no one will count them carefully.
Thinking again, the saint has lived in Luoyang for more than ten years. During these years, so many smart people have used all kinds of dazzling methods to make Guanzhong abundant with food. Could this food be conjured? It has been raining continuously in Guanzhong since the beginning of spring.
If there was a grain disaster this year, it would be nothing more than using stored grain to provide relief, but the saint seemed unwilling to admit that the rain had hurt the seedlings, so he had no choice but not to say these disappointing things in front of the saint.
There was suspicion in Yang Guozhong's eyes, and he wanted to check, but these accounts were so complicated that it was a headache to think about.
At the end, he murmured: "Never mind it, the rebels have captured Luoyang, and there is no evidence to prove it."
~~
Two days later, Wu Yuanzi arrived at Tongguan with a hundred swordsmen.
At that time, Ge Shuhan also arrived on the march. Wu Yuanzi asked Ge Shuhan not to intervene and said to Gao Xianzhi: "The saint has a favor for you."
When Gao Xianzhi heard this, he didn't say anything. He took off his armor and put on linen clothes to listen to the order. After hearing this, his lips trembled violently.
"I can't defend Luoyang, and I deserve death, but don't accuse me of withholding military rations and rewards!"
He angrily raised his hand and pointed at the Tang army soldiers who were guarding Guancheng, stared at Wu Yuanzi and asked: "The sky is above, the earth is below, and the soldiers are all here. Ask yourself, don't you know what happened at that time?!"
Wu Yuanzi was unmoved and said: "General Gao, there is no need to ask me. I am just a slave and I am passing on the sage's will."
These words as plain as water made Gao Xianzhi feel more and more sad and angry. He turned around and looked to the west. There was only a sunset in the sky and there was no Chang'an.
He knelt down on the ground and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! Since the fall of Luoyang City, I have presented my testimony three times, but I have not been misled. However, I do not want to live, but I only want to bow to the court, express my heart to Your Majesty, and tell the plan of the country.
, to defeat the tiger and wolf's plot, and to repay His Majesty's life-long favor with the grace of ten thousand deaths. Today, Chang'an is far away, there is no reason to visit, and Tongguan is far away, and I have no time to express my feelings..."
When he said this, he thought that the reason why he did not die on the battlefield was not to live a meager existence, but because he had a plan to report to the emperor, but who knew that he would end up suffering such a humiliating and unjust death.
Choking, Gao Xianzhi lowered his head, which he had always been proud of, and said: "Supervisor Wu, I have a "Death Appreciation Form" that I want to submit to His Majesty. Could you please submit it?"
Wu Yuanzi was softer than Bian Lingcheng and sighed: "General Gao, why bother making things difficult for me?"
"I don't want to mention the detailed reasons, but just want to express my gratitude to His Majesty, okay?"
"How about I leave a whole body for the general?"
Gao Xianzhi clenched his fists tightly, and suddenly without Wu Yuanzi noticing, he stood up and ran to the battlements, shouting: "My sons, have I ever detained you to wait for the reward of military rations?!"
"Unjustly accused!"
"Unjustly accused!"
"Unjustly accused!"
Ge Shuhan, who had just entered Tongguan City, heard the earth-shattering cry and felt a sense of desolation, like a rabbit dying and a fox pitiful.
"Yan Gong thought it was too high..."
Still wanting to chat with Yan Zhenqing, Brother Shuhan turned around and found that Yan Zhenqing was no longer behind him.
"Where's Mr. Yan?"
"It seems that I just met a Tongguan general and took him away."
~~
Henan Prefecture.
Xue Bai was marching towards Yongqiu when he suddenly saw dust and smoke rising from the horizon in the distance.
Ahead, Jiang Hai hurried back with his exploration horse and reported: "Lang Jun, we encountered a rebel army of elite cavalry. There are more than 5,000 people. The other party has also discovered us and is coming here."
Being in enemy territory, this is an unavoidable situation. Xue Bai had long been mentally prepared. After capturing Wei County, he deliberately kept some rebel flags and military robes.
A first move.
So the Guangwu Army stopped advancing, rested on the spot, and formed an array.
Xue Bai and Wang Nan led the vanguard troops forward, waving the rebel flag, waiting for work.
Following the sound of horse hooves, the opponent's scout horse came forward and shouted from a distance: "We are under the command of Suiyang Prefect, what kind of soldiers and horses are you waiting for?!"
Xue Bai held a telescope and looked at the high flag with the word "Zhang" raised high. He was sure it was the pattern of the rebels. He was wondering if Suiyang had lost it.
He was curious, so he ordered his riders to come forward and give each other the bugles.
"Li Qian, a partial general under the prefect of Wei County, was ordered to support Yongqiu and marched here."
Not long after, Hou Qi reported back and said that the other party was Zhang Tongmei, the prefect of Suiyang appointed by An Lushan. Fortunately, Suiyang was not yet under the rule of the rebels.
Zhang Tongmei was originally going to Yongqiu to join forces with Linghu Chao to attack Suiyang, but because the rebel general Yang Chaozong was ordered to attack the east, he encountered resistance from officers and soldiers in Dongping and Jinan, so he was ordered to lead his troops to support Yang Chaozong.
After hearing this, Xue Bai asked Hou Qi to ask Zhang Tongyu if he was Zhang Tongru, Zhang Tongyou's brother, and established a friendship with him, inviting him to talk in front of the battle.
Zhang Tongmei thought he had met an old friend, and led his soldiers forward. When he was about to reach the place where he could shoot an arrow, Wang Nanpo drew his bow and nocked an arrow, preparing to shoot the opponent and defeat the rebel army.
However, he should have seen a large number of Guangwu Army soldiers and horses, neatly arrayed, with only a few rebel flags and clothing in front, and Tang Army uniforms and armor in the rear. Zhang Tonghao suddenly reined in his horse, ran back, and shouted at the same time
: "It's officers and soldiers!"
"kill!"
Wang Rao shouted immediately and led his army to charge forward.
The two sides then fought in the plains.
Zhang Tongmei was originally very confident, thinking that the Henan officers and soldiers would definitely be far inferior to Fan Yang's fine cavalry without fighting in battle. However, after the confrontation, he realized that he had underestimated the enemy. He immediately felt cold.
After an hour of fierce fighting, the signs of defeat were already visible. Zhang Tong was about to withdraw his troops when suddenly, dust and smoke rose high from behind and trumpets and drums sounded loudly.
"Report!"
"The rear line is under enemy attack!"
Gradually, another group of soldiers and horses appeared in sight.
Zhang Tongmei thought that he was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and was so panicked that he ignored his subordinates and drove his horse to flee alone.
The sound of horse hoofs clattered as he ran for more than a hundred feet, and a group of officers and soldiers wearing light armor chased him.
An arrow came and shot Zhang Tongmei off his horse. A gentle man in the lead stepped forward with a knife and cut off his head with one blow.
Over there, Xue Bai saw other officers and soldiers coming, but he was quite vigilant. He worked with the other party to surround and capture the rebels. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to organize their formations and prepare for them.
He scanned it with a telescope and noticed that the number of officers and soldiers who came was about two thousand. Most of them had only undergone simple training. Their armor and weapons were not neat, but their morale was very high.
When the battle was settled, the opponent came forward with Zhang Tongmei's head on a knife and shouted: "Jia Bi, the lieutenant of Danfu County in the Tang Dynasty, raised his troops to fight against the rebellion. May I ask which general it is?!"
"Xue Bai, the governor of Changshan."
Jia Ben was overjoyed. He quickly threw the long sword in his hand to others, drove his horse forward and saluted: "I have long admired the name of Prefect Xue. Now that I have arrived in Henan, the situation in Hebei has been decided?"
Xue Bai observed Jia Bi's expression and speculated that he had not received the order from Hebei, so he knew what he was doing and responded firmly: "Anlu Mountain has become a turtle in a urn."
"Very good!"
Jia Ben looked at the Guangwu Army's formation of more than 10,000 people and was even more overjoyed. He said sincerely: "I have made an agreement with Zhang Xun, the Magistrate of Zhenyuan County, to join forces to recover Yongqiu. Does Governor Xue want to go with us?"
Xue Bai agreed and asked, "How is the situation in Yongqiu County?"
"Yongqiu County Magistrate Hu Chao and the rebel Gao Shang had a long-standing relationship, and he rebelled as soon as the rebels arrived."
That night, Xue Bai and Jia Ben joined forces and stationed in the wild, looking at the map to discuss the strategy of taking Yongqiu.
"Linghu Chao has been planning for a long time. Yongqiu City is well supplied with food, so it is not easy to attack by force." Xue Bai said: "Why don't I lead the troops to pretend to attack Chenliu, forcing Li Tingwang to recruit Linghu Chao to help, pretend to attack in the east, and attack in the west, while you and Zhang Xun take Yongqiu.
mound……"
~~
Yongqiu.
Linghu Chao had already taken off his original green official robe and put on the red robe given to him by the rebels.
And his promotion will go far beyond this. According to Gao Shang and what he said, An Lushan is ready to proclaim himself emperor. He has even thought about the name of the country, which is called Dayan Kingdom. He will ascend the throne as soon as the preparations are ready.
On the day of the ceremony, Linghu Chao will also be able to wear a purple robe due to Yuan Cong's merits. Of course he is Yuan Cong. His daughter eloped with Gao Shang in the early years. She has been secretive over the years and dare not recognize him, but at least
He has finally accepted Gao Gao.
In short, he is very much looking forward to becoming an important minister of the dynasty, so he has been very energetic in doing things recently. After surrendering, he immediately launched a surprise attack on Xiangyi County, which is adjacent to Yongqiu.
When he entered the city, a banquet was given to him.
Linghu Chao then stabbed Xiangyi Ling in the back, and took the opportunity to capture Lei Wanchun, the general of the Huaiyang army stationed in Xiangyi, and more than a hundred of his men. He returned with a great victory and imprisoned the prisoners in Yongqiu.
Prepare to behead in public display.
At this time, Li Tingwang, the rebel general stationed in Chenliu County, sent Xin Ma. After hearing what Xin Ma said, Linghu Chao was quite surprised and asked several questions in succession.
"Who? Xue Bai? He came to Henan?"
Of course he had heard of Xue Bai's name. His son-in-law Gao Shang was disfigured because of him. Although he liked Gao Shang more after the disfigurement, he knew very well that the person who could make his arrogant son-in-law suffer was definitely a person.
An opponent that cannot be underestimated.
Li Tingwang also attached great importance to Xue Bai, saying that Xue Bai led more than 10,000 troops to invade Kaifeng, but he blocked him in Chenliu. Linghu Chao was determined to perform meritorious deeds, so he immediately ordered all the troops and horses to go to support him personally.
On the plain leading from Yongqiu to Chenliu, in the woods there were sentinels of the Guangwu Army lying on the treetops with telescopes looking into the distance. When they saw dust and smoke, they immediately greeted their companions in the bushes under the trees.
The way to say hello is also very simple, just throw a stone at his head.
"Here we come, the reinforcements around the point have begun."
"See if it's a rebel flag."
The treetops swayed slightly, and the soldiers above clamped their legs on the branches and stretched their bodies.
Finally, a large flag appeared in his sight, and it was the word "Linghu".
More than a hundred miles away, a large flag also appeared in the south of Yongqiu City. The soldiers guarding the city saw it from a distance and shouted: "The officers and soldiers are coming! Beat the drums quickly!"
"Dong dong dong dong."
The sound of drums gradually spread to the prison in Yongqiu City.
A big man who was in a cell, but still tied tightly with ropes, was snoring. Hearing the sound of drums, he suddenly woke up, stood up like a carp, and shouted: "Come here!"
"Lei Ada, I'm really impressed by you. You're going to be beheaded soon and you can still sleep so deeply." A jailer came over, pointed at Lei Wanchun and cursed: "Stay there and don't make any noise!"
Lei Wanchun said: "Have you heard the drums at the top of the city? Master Wang is here."
"So what?"
"You don't want to think about it, is it possible for Zahu to rebel? When Master Wang breaks the city, you will have to involve your whole family." Lei Wanchun climbed to the fence and advised: "Now is a good time anyway."
"Scaring me? I think you want to be whipped..."
The jailer stepped forward, raised his hand and was about to whip his whip at Lei Wanchun. With a "bang", Lei Wanchun grabbed him and threw him heavily against the fence.
"You...how did you earn it?"
"You think I'm sleeping. I've worn out the rope a long time ago." Lei Wanchun's big, iron-like hands strangled the jailer's neck and said, "I'm not good at eloquence. I just tried to persuade you not to listen. Don't you listen now?"
?”
"Listen, listen."
"Open the door and wait for my hundreds of sons to come out and take you to seek wealth. The oiran in Qu will order whatever he wants."
Accompanied by the sound of clanging, Lei Wanchun walked through the prison passage with an iron chain. When he saw the guard, he swung the iron chain and hit him on the head, then strangled his neck and strangled him to death.
After that, he asked more than a hundred of his men to grab knives and kill people, then rushed out of the county jail and went straight to the city gate.
"Open the city gate and welcome the king!"
Soon, the rebel flag fell down on top of Yongqiu City.
Lei Wanchun stood in front of the corpses of the rebels on the ground, spat out, and watched the rows of officers and soldiers pouring into the city.
When he saw a big flag with the word "Zhang" standing at the top of the city, he grinned and laughed.
~~
Amidst the shouts of killing, a large "Linghu" flag wavered and fled northward in great embarrassment.
Xue Bai was about to pursue, but he heard a report from the scouting horse from the north, saying that the rebel Yin Ziqi, who came from Kaifeng to support Li Tingwang, had already moved more than ten miles away. He just gave up and ordered: "Don't pursue the poor invaders, besiege Yongqiu.
"
So he ordered the flag to wave and point to the south. But to Xue Bai's surprise, before he reached Yongqiu, fast horses were already coming.
"Report! Zhang Xun, the commander of Zhenyuan, has captured Yongqiu County. Please ask the prefect to enter the city to rest and discuss the big plan together."
At such a fast speed, Xue Bai suspected that it was the enemy's trick, so he asked carefully about what happened and smiled dumbly. Unexpectedly, when he first arrived in Henan, he met Jia Bi, Zhang Xun, Lei Wanchun and other loyal ministers and righteous men.
But I don’t know what will happen when the imperial edict comes from the imperial court?
Regardless, before this happens, he, the leader of the alliance recommended by all the counties in Hebei, can also form a bloody alliance with the officials of the counties in Henan, and build up his reputation before being "carried" to Chang'an...
