In the mausoleum, Yang Biao and Huangfu Song sat together, with the Han Emperor's edict in front of them, silent.
After Wang Yun's death, Li Jue and Guo Si did not continue to attack the palace. Instead, they asked Liu Xie to issue an edict stating that Dong Zhuo was innocent, and in the name of the emperor, they sent it to Yang Biao and Huangfu Song who were in the tomb. Send such an order to immediately surrender military power.
This made Yang Biao and Huangfu Song extremely embarrassed.
Originally, Yang Biao and Huangfu Song had expected that although the imperial city was not a dangerous pass with high walls and thick forts, the Xiliang army came all the way and fought continuously. It was no problem to hold on for a day or two, let alone a night. But now...
what to do?
This is quite a thorny issue.
The world is changing, the morning is like dew, the evening is like clouds, it seems colorful and unusually beautiful, but it often disappears in an instant, leaving only fragments of lotus flowers and green mountains.
Just like the current situation, Yang Biao thought he could control the situation in Chang'an, but he didn't expect that Li Jue, Guo Si and others would suddenly turn against him, leaving him so passive now.
If they had not fallen out with each other before, they could still deceive themselves and pretend that nothing happened, and then swallow their anger for the time being, just like Dong Zhuo did when he was in the government and the public. When the time is right, Li Jue, Guo Si and others can be Once cleaned up.
However, although there is no contact and fighting with Li Jue and others, the sword and gun have been drawn out, so how can you just take it back? Even if you pretend to be friendly, people may not believe it...
Yang Biao knew that it would be of no use to say something that he knew earlier, and then beating his chest and regretting it in the first place. On the contrary, it would dampen his ambition even more, so he said slowly: "Yizhen, if you mean it, what should I do?"
It’s not that Yang Biao was helpless when big things happened, and Huangfu Song had to make the decision. It was just that Yang Biao didn’t know much about military matters after all. He had to rely on Huangfu Song for things like commanding the army and marching, so he should be given appropriate courtesy and respect. It became Yang Biao's inevitable choice. Moreover, asking like this can also ease the mutual wariness between the two people and show that he and Huangfu Song are on the same line...
Huangfu Song shook his head and said slowly and word for word: "We must never hand over military power! Those who are afraid of Li Guo and other thieves are soldiers..."
Having reached this point, Huangfu Song has already stubbornly understood the current situation. He said that his disciples and old officials are all over the world, and that his scholarly family has been passed down for generations. When real swords and guns are raised, these things become nonsense.
In this world, only military power is the real authority, and everything else is secondary.
At the beginning, none of Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi were well-known generals in charge of the central army, but they were forced by Dong Zhuo, who held military power, to either flee or just live in obscurity.
Now that we have finally regained military power, how can we hand it over so easily?
But not surrendering would be tantamount to violating the decree. Although this decree must be the intention of Li Jue and others, it is after all an official and formal order, representing the court and the most orthodox order of the Han Dynasty.
Violating this will is tantamount to...
Huangfu Song's triangle eyelids were drooped, but there was a flash of light in his eyes. He exhaled and spoke out one word after another, as if each word weighed as much as a thousand pounds: "The only plan now is to fight! Take advantage of the opportunity
Li Guo and other thieves were not able to gain a firm foothold and immediately attacked Chang'an! As for the rest, they didn't care much..."
What is other?
Naturally, they were the officials in the city and Liu Xie who was trapped in the palace.
After all, Huangfusong is still a veteran on the battlefield. Although sometimes his hands and feet are trapped by some things, of course he can be ruthless when he really needs to be ruthless.
Hearing Huangfu Song's words, Yang Biao couldn't help but look sideways slightly, but did not express his position immediately.
Huangfu Song's method is indeed the best way to deal with it, and it will definitely be effective. Li Jue and others have just entered Chang'an. Neither the people in the city nor the imperial army can settle down immediately. Taking advantage of this situation
The time window gave Li Jue and others enough pressure, not to mention the people and soldiers in the city, etc., and saw the weak side of the Xiliang soldiers, and they started to cooperate internally and externally...
But the question is, if Li Jue and others repeat their old tricks and take hundreds of officials and even the emperor to the top of the city, can he and Huangfu Song be able to do it?
Similarly, if you can make this decision yourself, but it is still ordinary soldiers who have to carry it out, can these soldiers really obey orders and kill hundreds of officials, even the emperor?
There is a more difficult problem.
Once this matter really evolves to such a situation, it will become a stain that Yang Biao and Huangfu Song will never be able to erase in their lifetime. How many people who killed the emperor can get a good death?
Moreover, Yang Biao has not yet reached a state where he can control the government and the public and have power over the world. Even if he barely defeats Li Guo and others, how will Yang Biao or the Hongnong Yang family stand in the remaining political situation?
Yang Biao shook his head slowly and said: "Now that the people in Chang'an City are in ruins, I really don't want to start fighting again... Yizhen, do you have any other ideas?"
Huangfusong's eyelids moved slightly, and he glanced at Yang Biao, slightly disappointed. He hoped that Yang Biao would agree to such an effective strategy, but it also had huge side effects. The reason was very simple. Huangfusong led the battle, and Yang Biao sat in the rear, fighting
Come down, if someone really talks about killing hundreds of officials and killing the emperor, then it is natural that Huangfu Song can...
After all, if the sky falls, there will be tall people holding it up, right?
But obviously such thoughts cannot be expressed directly, and Huangfusong just gave it a try, so after a moment of silence, Huangfusong said: "...If we can't fight, we will have no choice but to leave..."
"Let's go..." Yang Biao repeated in a murmur, but his eyes were a little faint, "But where can we go..."

At this moment, in Beidifang of Chang'an City, the empty palace of Yuan Taishi and Li Ru's office, Jia Xu did not mind, just standing alone in the hall where the floor was full of beams and the beams were covered with dust and spider silk.
among……
"What a big man..." Jia Xu shook his head, looking at the walls and window lintels that had been uninhabited for a long time and had begun to be damaged and decayed. He muttered softly to himself, "How about...? This is a big man.
Ah...hehehe...this is the glamorous noble clan..."
"...Tell me, is this fun? The house is rotten. Wouldn't it be helpful to just paint the walls and replace the window paper?" Jia Xu stared at the small hole in the corner that was probably made by the mouse, and continued with a smile, "...
Now everyone in the world should take a look, wake up, and understand what kind of guy is living in this house..."
"Hey hey hey..."
"Hahaha……"
The Battle of Chang'an... To use a saying from a political class: it was the embodiment of the concentrated outbreak of social conflicts in the Han Dynasty at that time...
