Maoling is a cemetery built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for himself during his lifetime.
It was the custom of the people of the Han Dynasty that they should be buried with honor after death. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had been thinking about leaving a place to sleep for himself very early. Therefore, during a hunting trip, he said that he found it near Maoshan, north of the Weishui River. He bought a unicorn and a longevity fruit tree, so he surrounded the area of Maoshan and began to build a mausoleum.
Of course, the so-called Kirin and even the longevity fruit tree did not bring immortality to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. When the time came, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still obediently got into Maoling. Of course, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was afraid that he would have no money after his death. , also brought one-third of the country's wealth to the underworld.
But Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty never thought that within three years of his old man moving in, his carefully built mansion would be pried open, and the jade staff and boxes in the tomb were sold on the street...
Then in the next one or two hundred years, many people were worried about the loneliness of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so they voluntarily organized many individual, team, and even group sightseeing groups to visit the Han Dynasty again and again. Emperor Wu's mansion.
The most recent time, it was Dong Zhuo who visited the mansion of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and of course, the executor was Lu Bu.
But after all, Maoling has been the largest mausoleum in Chang'an City since ancient times. Therefore, although the back door of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has been broken open many times, for the Maoling City next to it, it is still the place where many people live and produce. Of course, it is also It has the largest garrison among the surrounding tombs.
The south gate of Maoling faces the Weishui River, and across the Weishui River, you can see the flames of Chang'an City soaring into the sky, and the faint screams and fighting sounds are mixed in with the wailing in the sky and the explosions of collapse due to burning. On the other side of the Wei River, Wang Yun's order to mobilize troops was transmitted across the Wei River and to Maoling.
The big man's flag seemed to be swept away by such a sound in the wind, almost as if it was about to be torn off the flagpole!
Compared with Chang'an City, although the city walls of Maoling are not very majestic, they are more orderly. On the city walls, neatly dressed soldiers stand solemnly. The archers have hung their bowstrings on the backs of their bows, and arrows are flying. After adjusting the arrow fletching, the rolling stones and wood were piled neatly on one side. Next to them was a group of auxiliary soldiers, also waiting for orders.
Not far to the south of Maoling Mausoleum is the Weishui Bridge across the Wei River. Near the stone bridge, various garrison equipment had been prepared shortly after the war began. At the north end of the stone bridge, not only the original Juma and Village The fence was also erected, and a deer village that could be locked up at any time was erected.
With just one order, these soldiers can not only guard the Weishui Bridge, but also advance into Chang'an City!
But no one expected that compared with the solemn and solemn atmosphere of Maoling City Wall and Weishui Bridge, there was chaos in the Maoling Shoufu Yamen in the city.
In the Yamen of Maoling Mansion, Huangfu Song, who was already gray-haired, was still full of energy despite his age. He sat upright in the hall. Beside him, the mayor of Maoling sat a little. He couldn't help but his face kept changing.
"Report..." A soldier rushed to the hall, knelt down and reported, "... Zhangping Gate is on fire! Luo City Gate is also on fire! They are still fighting for the city gate!"
"Go and find out more." Huangfu Song said slowly.
"Report...a group of thieves reappeared in the east of Chang'an City, more than a thousand people, heading straight for Chang'an Zhangping, Luocheng Second Gate!"
"Report...many fires broke out in Chang'an City!"
"Report... Chang'an City Gate School Captain Wang Yi has died! The traitor Cao Zhangkuo has died! The thieves are pouring into Chang'an City!"
"Report..."
The scouts sent information like a stream of water, but Huangfu Song only replied with four words: "Go and inquire further."
"General Huangfu!" The mayor of Maoling couldn't hold himself back any longer. He stood up and said, "The city of Chang'an is in danger! Why haven't we sent troops yet?"
Huangfu Song glanced at the mayor of Maoling and said calmly: "This is military affairs. It is useless to talk about it. Just do your duty."
"What's your duty?" The city chief controlled his emotions, pointed his hand southward, and said, "General Huangfu! I don't know what else is more important at the moment! The bandit army has broken through the city! And we actually
Just sit back and watch?!"
Huangfu Song shook his head and said: "The rebels are in full strength, and it is not the right time to send out troops. When their offensive is blocked, they can be defeated with one blow..."
"..." After hearing Huangfu Song's intention, the chief of the city seemed to want to continue waiting. He couldn't help but blush, and said loudly, "Now the lives in Chang'an City are in ruins, and there are countless casualties! General Huangfu! At this moment, there are more people.
How many souls have been killed by the sword!"
Huangfu Song glanced at the mayor indifferently, moved the corner of his mouth slightly, and said slowly: "Soldiers, life and death, how can a woman's kindness achieve anything?"
But the chief of the city sneered, and then said loudly: "General Huangfu has a lot of excuses! Good! This place is Maoling! Emperor Xiaowu is buried here! I hope the general will act impartially! Don't tarnish your reputation for the rest of your life!"
As soon as he said this, Huangfu Song's expression finally changed. He opened his triangular eyelids and stared straight at the chief of the city, saying, "You... what do you mean by this?"
The chief of the city shook his head and said: "General Huangfu, I am a small official, and I shouldn't say too much. However, above the court, regardless of Shandong or Shanxi, we are all members of the Han family! Although Chang'an City is not as good as Luoyang, it is still the capital of the Han Dynasty.
!Now... but the capital has been plunged into war again for the past century, how can General Huangfu bear it!"
The look in Huangfu Song's eyes changed, and his long beard trembled slightly. After a moment of silence, he said slowly: "I... I underestimated you... I guess..."
Huangfu Song sighed, then stood up, walked a few steps forward, and stood in front of the lobby. The wind blowing in from outside the hall scattered his gray beard.
Above the sky, dark clouds rolled, just like Huangfu Song's current mood.
Huangfu Song's uncle, Huangfu Gui, was a famous general in the Han Dynasty and one of the Three Ming Dynasties in Liangzhou. He was upright and honest throughout his life, and was not afraid of the powerful and traitors. However, he was framed by the powerful and traitorous party several times, and almost escaped death each time.
Even after he was excused from his post and returned home due to illness, the officials in the prefecture and county continued to adhere to the wishes of General Liang Ji and still did not let him go, and almost killed him several times.
Huangfusong's father, Huangfujie, once served as the prefect of Yanmen County. He had been a border general for a long time and had a loyal and brave life. However, when the Hu people went south, he lost the county seat and was punished by Zhongchangshi and dismissed from his post.
When Huangfu Song was a boy, he followed his uncle Huangfu Gui and participated in many battles to quell the Xiqiang. He also took part in the Yellow Turban Rebellion and defeated the three Zhang Jiao brothers. But to this day, he is still an idle general...
Now, although Huangfusong is still in his prime, years of hard military life have made him look like a man in his sixties.
"I... really don't want to..." Huangfu Song looked up at the sky with rolling dark clouds and muttered something.
"Ah?" The chief of the city didn't hear clearly what Huangfu Song said, so he raised his hands and asked, "General Huangfu?"
Huangfusong lowered his head, his eyes turned cold, and without answering, he walked straight out of the lobby.
"General Huangfu!"
The mayor still reached out to call Huangfu Song who was leaving without knowing what was going on. However, he saw several of Huangfu Song's personal guards who were standing outside the lobby walking in with unkind expressions and staring at him fiercely.
"You wait...Huangfu Song!" The city chief understood instantly and shouted, "Evil thief! Such behavior! How is it different from treason! A big man..."
Before the chief of the city could finish speaking, Huangfu Song's personal guards had already drawn their swords, rushed forward, chopped the chief of the city to the ground with a few swords, then cut off his head and carried him out of the hall.
"...The chief of Maoling City, who was in league with the thieves, wanted to assassinate the general, but was killed on the spot..."
