After Huangfu Song killed the mayor of Maoling, he stood on the city wall of Lingyi without any distractions, paying full attention to the specific movements of Chang'an.
The guess of the mayor of Maoling was not wrong. Huangfu Song chose to wait and see, and was not prepared to follow Wang Yun's order and immediately led his troops to Chang'an for rescue.
But the mayor of Maoling also guessed something wrong. Huangfusong's starting point was still for the Han Dynasty. In his heart, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did.
Yes, this was a decision jointly made by him and Yang Biao.
The capital of the Han Dynasty was once Chang'an, which is correct. However, as times have changed, Chang'an is no longer suitable as the capital of the Han Dynasty. Looking at the current situation, what will happen if the capital of the Han Dynasty is set in Chang'an again?
Huangfusong looked towards Ba Ling in the distance, where Yang Biao was sitting. Of course, there was no movement at all...
Although there was a distance, Huangfu Song seemed to be able to feel Yang Biao's gaze from Ba Ling. His gray beard was trembling in the wind. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "Pass a certain military order! Get ready."
Okay! After all the Xiliang bandits appear, we will go out of the city to fight!"
The personal guards behind Huangfu Song quickly passed on Huangfu Song's order, and immediately under the gate of Lingyi City, the soldiers who had been assembled on standby responded loudly.
But at this time, on the city wall of Baling, Yang Biao sighed slightly and said: "I have pity on the people in the city... I hope this battle will put an end to the evil and rebellion, and bring peace to the great Han Dynasty..."
Liu Ai said from the side: "Mr. Yang is worried about the country, and the common people must also feel it. If you know what Mr. Yang is thinking, we will definitely be able to decide in a battle!" Liu Ai was originally the magistrate of Shaanxi County. Later, when Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, he saw his conversation
He was very fond of Bu Fan, so he took him to Luoyang hostage and let him serve in Dong Zhuo's palace. Then when Dong Zhuo returned to Chang'an from the west, he took him all the way to Chang'an. For Liu Ai, Dong Zhuo actually didn't have much
The support was only a last resort, so when Zhao Wen began to look for candidates in private, Liu Ai, who was labeled Dong Zhuo, was eager to clear himself and united tightly with Yang Biao...
Yang Biao smiled, nodded and said, "I'd like to thank you for your good words! I hope so!"
Both Yang Biao and Huangfu Song actually believed that they could not stay in Chang'an for a long time. However, Wang Yun still refused to return to Henan Province. Coupled with other factors, this eventually led to the conflict between the court officials headed by Yang Biao and Wang Yun.
The two factions headed by Bingzhou interests parted ways.
Since Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, the foundation of the Han Dynasty is no longer in the Guanzhong and Yongbinliang areas, but has completely focused on the more densely populated areas, Jizhou and Yuzhou, which contributed decisive forces to Emperor Guangwu's great cause.
Prefectures and counties.
Time and environment.
In Yang Biao's understanding, when the Han Dynasty was founded, the country was snatched from the hands of the former Qin Dynasty. Naturally, it had to be located in Guanzhong to suppress these people from the original Western Qin Dynasty. However, the Han Dynasty had already been founded for three to four hundred years.
How could it be possible that during the Shangwang Mang Rebellion, the most threatening thing to the Han family was still in Guanzhong?
What would happen if the Emperor of the Han Dynasty was left in Chang'an for a long time?
Wang Yun and Lu Bu, both civil and military, were both from Bingzhou, but they were at odds with each other. What problems would happen if they took control of the government?
Whenever he thinks of this, Yang Biao will sweat over and over again. Under the current situation, whether it is for the Han Dynasty or for the Hongnong Yang family, the emperor of Chang'an returns to Guandong as soon as possible.
The most correct choice.
Therefore, Yang Biao did not hesitate to use Chang'an City as bait. On the one hand, he could lure these remnants of Xiliang to gather together and catch them all in one fell swoop. On the other hand, he could also ruthlessly wipe out Wang Yun, his rival in the imperial court. More importantly,
After this battle, Chang'an would no longer be able to become a suitable capital, and the Emperor of the Han Dynasty would definitely move the capital again!
As for the heads of Guizhou who were wailing in the flames of war, since they were protected by the Han, it was only right that they sacrifice some to contribute to the future of the Han.
"Report! A large number of Xiliang bandit soldiers have appeared in the east of Chang'an City, and the flag of the general with the word 'Guo' has been seen!" A scout with a big man's head came running to report.
"Okay! This must be the traitor general Guo Si!" Yang Biao asked again, "Can you recognize the flag when you see the character 'Li'?"
"There is no such flag!" the scout replied.
Um?
Why is it that only Guo Si came and not Li Jue?
Is it still behind?
"Report!" Another messenger came over on horseback, "General Huangfu asked if he wants to march?"
Yang Biao's eyes kept turning left and right, should we march now?
"No, let General Huangfu wait for a while, wait for the bandit army to arrive, and then we can advance together! Defeat them in one fell swoop!"
Yang Biao finally decided to wait, because if he marched now, it would be a bit of a surprise. He wanted to be a calm hunter, not a bad reckless man.
Just like fishing in the river, some small fish have already entered the net bag. All you need is a little more patience to let the bigger fish watching the movement outside also fall into the net, and then close the net in one fell swoop!
By then, Wang Yun will be the one to blame for this battle, while the Hongnong Yang family will save the emperor and the people from fire and water, and save the Han Dynasty from the general collapse.
Du Luoyang, on the other hand, ordered the two Yuans to suspend their troops. Since they are both Shandong nobles, there is no absolute conflict. If they sit down and talk, they will divide what is deserved, and the world will be peaceful, won't it?
But Yang Biao did not expect that his waiting did not bring the so-called Li Jue's banner, but instead he waited for a result that stunned Yang Biao, Huangfu Song and others!
I saw the Chang'an city gate facing the Weishui Bridge burst open, and the Xiliang soldiers drove out of the city with loud cries and shouts, like a sudden explosion of bees, gushing out!
Many of the Xiliang soldiers were surrendered by the Qiang people. They had actually done a lot of things like driving away crowds before they became Dong Zhuo's subordinates. Now that they have returned to their old profession, they are very familiar with it, and they are constantly on both sides of the crowd.
They cruised around, then whipped or killed those who walked crookedly and slowly, and then drove the ordinary people, who were ten times more than the Xiliang soldiers, rolling towards the Weishui Bridge like a mudslide!
In fact, Li Jue concealed his banner and arrived with Guo Si. As soon as he entered the city, he followed Jia Xu's plan and did not attack the imperial city high above.
All the ordinary people were driven out, and then the current situation was formed.
On the south bank of the Weishui Bridge, a large number of people were crowded together, and the soldiers stationed on the north bank of the Weishui Bridge naturally could not let these people overwhelm the prepared defensive positions, so they would naturally block the bridge deck tightly with the deer antlers and others.
