The next thing to deal with is the matter of the Yellow Turban prisoners. This time Dong Zhuo's army rushed to Yingchuan to quell the rebellion. They were lightly armed and simple, and it was impossible to march with more than 2,000 prisoners. After thinking about it, Dong Zhuo ordered: "Execute all the Yellow Turbans
captive!"
After hearing Dong Zhuo's military order, Jia Rong couldn't bear it and was about to intercede for the Yellow Turban prisoners; Guo Bang, who was beside Jia Rong, grabbed him and whispered: "Second brother, you can't do this."
Jia Rong also knew in his heart that if he interceded for the Yellow Turban prisoners, he would definitely be scolded by Dong Zhuo, and he would not let his military orders change. After following Dong Zhuo for so long, he also understood Dong Zhuo's character.
Li Ru glanced at Jia Rong with cold eyes, and when he saw that Jia Rong did not stand up to plead for the Yellow Turban prisoners, he turned his eyes elsewhere.
However, Li Ru did not let Jia Rong go. After Dong Zhuo announced the military order, he sneered and said: "Since the Yellow Turban soldiers were captured by Jia Xiaowei, Jia Xiaowei will deal with these Yellow Turban soldiers."
Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's words and nodded in agreement without any consideration.
A bloody massacre began. More than two thousand Yellow Turban prisoners were all beheaded on Jia Rong's order and then dealt with hastily.
Seeing the desire for survival and the despair of imminent death in the eyes of a Yellow Turban prisoner when he ordered to be "killed", Jia Rong couldn't bear to look away.
Unexpectedly, he became an executioner, and more than 2,000 Yellow Turban soldiers were killed under his orders.
Jia Rong is a modern person who accepts modern ideas, so he naturally does not want such a bloody scene to happen; although he has always upheld the idea of never showing mercy to the enemy, when he really executes a group of unarmed people, he really doesn't want it to happen.
Easy to get started.
Guo Bang walked to Jia Rong, patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Second brother, don't be sad. The moment they chose to rebel, they should have thought that they would end up like today."
Jia Rong didn't want Guo Bang to worry about him, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable."
The war horses rewarded by Dong Zhuo were quickly delivered to Jia Rong's team. What was different from what was expected was that the soldiers responsible for transporting the war horses brought two hundred war horses. The soldier who transported the war horses said that Guo Si would give him the one hundred war horses he deserved.
A war horse was given to him.
Jia Rong did not refuse. Guo Bang was his eldest brother, and being humble to him would only make him unhappy. He silently kept Guo Bang's kindness to him in his heart. With such a good elder brother, Jia Rong felt that he
There is nothing worthwhile about arriving at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, not to mention that there is still a woman he likes waiting for him.
After placing the horses, Jia Rong personally found Jiang Yu and asked Jiang Yu to select two hundred soldiers to serve as cavalry.
In this battle against the Yellow Turbans, Jia Rong realized the role of cavalry. If he used infantry to fight against the Yellow Turban soldiers, the Yellow Turban soldiers would not be defeated so quickly. Once the war fell into a stalemate, the losses of his soldiers would definitely be greater;
Cavalry, in the era of cold weapons, has always been a nightmare for infantry.
At night, the army was stationed in a wilderness. Although it was only temporarily stationed for one night, the horses were guarded and the night sentry was in place. This was the period when the Yellow Turbans were rampant, so we had to take the necessary precautions to prevent any unexpected events.
Dong Zhuo was a veteran general on the battlefield. Although he was not proficient in strategy, he was well versed in the art of marching. Otherwise, he would not have established a great reputation in several years of fighting with the Qiang people.
After the army was stationed, Jia Rong came to the place where the soldiers lived and expressed condolences to the cavalry who were injured during the day. When the injured soldiers saw Jia Rong coming to visit in person, they got up from the bed excitedly and wanted to salute Jia Rong, especially
It was the young men in Lijia Village who shed tears with excitement. In their hearts, Jia Rong was not only their commander, but also their relative.
Jia Rong hurriedly stopped and said some words of comfort; the soldiers beat their chests loudly and said, "As long as there is a war tomorrow, they can still kill the enemy for Jia Rong on the battlefield!"
After Jia Rong heard this, he was moved in his heart. A soldier is actually very simple. As long as you treat him well, he will naturally work hard for you. Full text...
Afterwards, Jia Rong asked the injured soldiers to rest well and recover from their injuries, and left the place where the soldiers lived under the reluctant eyes of the soldiers.
Soldiers are the courage of generals. Only when soldiers are willing to sacrifice their lives on the battlefield can the general dare to fight. Jia Rong believes that fighting requires not only bravery, but also caring for soldiers in daily life. Only when soldiers work together can they show their best performance on the battlefield.
The greatest combat power.
Jia Rong came to the camp where the Qiang soldiers lived again. Jiang Yu had been living with these Qiang soldiers. When he saw Jia Rong arriving, he got up from the bed and saluted Jia Rong.
After helping Jiang Yu up, Jiang Yu took him with him to express condolences to the injured Qiang cavalry one by one. The response of the Qiang cavalry was no weaker than that of the Han soldiers; Jia Rong had a high reputation in the minds of the Qiang soldiers.
status, because Jia Rong once defeated Jiang Yu, the object of their worship, and because Jia Rong fought bravely on the battlefield today, the Qiang soldiers were very convinced of Jia Rong.
Now, seeing the people they admired come to see their injuries in person, these Qiang soldiers were extremely excited. They thought that after surrendering to the Han people, they would suffer all kinds of discrimination. Unexpectedly, not only did the Han people not discriminate against them because of their identity, but also the general
And he's so kind to himself.
The Qiang soldiers naturally knew that all of this was due to Jia Rong, so whether in daily training or on the battlefield, the Qiang people worked hard and repaid Jia Rong in this way.
The next day, Dong Zhuo led his soldiers and continued to rush to Yingchuan.
On the way to Yingchuan, Jia Rong and his party have encountered more than twenty waves of Yellow Turban soldiers so far, with the largest number being more than 20,000, and the smallest number being thousands. Towards these rebels, Dong Zhuo adheres to the principles
He would kill anyone he saw, and after the killing, he would write a memorial to the Han Emperor to express his merits.
Dong Zhuo was very good at being a man. He selected smart soldiers in the army to go to Luoyang to perform meritorious service. He constantly managed Dong Zhuo in the court, especially the eunuchs. Now that the eunuchs are in power, for the sake of his own future, Dong Zhuo naturally
A lot of flattery is indispensable.
The Yellow Turban soldiers encountered along the way were very weak. They were basically composed of a group of common people holding farm tools. Some Yellow Turban soldiers were even bare-handed. When they saw the cavalry coming from all over the mountains and plains, they fled in all directions without engaging in combat.
Dong Zhuo's army marched towards Yingchuan with unstoppable momentum; at the same time, Dong Zhuo's evil reputation was also widely circulated among the Yellow Turban soldiers, and there were several versions of the rumor.
Some Yellow Turban soldiers rumored that Dong Zhuo was a murderer who could eat people without spitting out their bones; some Yellow Turban soldiers rumored that Dong Zhuo ate the flesh of Yellow Turban soldiers and drank the blood of Yellow Turban soldiers...
In short, Dong Zhuo's reputation among the Yellow Turban soldiers spread so widely that on the way to Yingchuan, many Yellow Turban soldier leaders saw Dong Zhuo's banner and led their soldiers to flee.
At the same time, Lu Zhi confronted Zhang Jiaojun in Guangzong, and Huangfu Song fought with Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao in Yingchuan.
On this day, the "angel" came to Lu Zhi's army, and Lu Zhi naturally entertained him well. This angel was none other than Zuo Feng, who came to inspect the battle ahead on the order of the Han Emperor.
Zuo Feng seemed not used to eating the food in the army. He just looked at the food without moving his chopsticks; Lu Zhi ignored this. In Lu Zhi's mind, he was the commander-in-chief fighting against the Yellow Turban rebels.
, and he, Zuo Feng, was just a eunuch. He was polite to him because he was an envoy of the Han Emperor. Otherwise, he would have been kicked out of the military camp long ago, so there would be no way for him to be picky here.
Seeing that Lu Zhi did not buy his own account, Zuo Feng also started to sue. Zuo Feng cleared his throat and said, "On the order of the Holy Emperor, Lu Zhonglang fought against the rebels in Guangzong. I don't know how many enemies he killed?"
Lu Zhi answered truthfully: "No gains have been made. The rebels are powerful and it is difficult to determine the outcome for the time being."
Zuo Feng said sarcastically: "According to Lu Zhonglang's wishes, our Han army might as well rebel against the traitors?"
Lu Zhi knew that this was Zuo Feng's deliberate attempt to make things difficult for him, and he snorted coldly: "I am the commander of the army. Naturally, I have a clearer understanding of the strength of our army and the strength of the rebels."
Zuo Feng sneered and said: "Lu Zhonglang, if you can't do it, you can't do it. Why do you have to explain yourself? You see, Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhonglang have killed countless Yellow Turban soldiers along the way. His achievements are outstanding. The Holy One always praises him in front of all the ministers."
Lu Zhi wanted to argue with Zuo Feng, but he was stopped by his counselor. The counselor said to Lu Zhi: "What Huangmen (eunuch) wants is money. It is useless for the general to argue with him. On the contrary, it is useless to argue with Zuo Feng."
Not to offend the general."
It was a good thing that Lu Zhi didn't listen to the counselor's explanation. After hearing this, he became furious. Looking at Zuo Feng who was leisurely and contented in his chair, he felt angry from the bottom of his heart.
But Zuo Feng had no idea about this. When he saw one of Lu Zhi's subordinates pulling Lu Zhi aside for discussion, he thought that finally there was someone who understood the general situation. Yin Yang said to Lu Zhi angrily: "I don't know, Lu Zhonglang
How much wealth can I bring out? I can go back and ask the Holy Master for Lu Zhonglang's merits."
Lu Zhi walked up to Zuo Feng, pointed his right hand at Zuo Feng's face, and cursed: "The country is in danger, the soldiers of the three armies have not been paid yet, but you still want to ask for bribes, I will beat you to death today, you guys
These eunuchs are the scum of the country." After finishing his scolding, Lu Zhi was panting in anger.
Although Lu Zhi was very powerful, he was an envoy sent by the Holy Mountain, so Lu Zhi did not dare to do anything to him. Wanting to understand this, Zuo Feng was not to be outdone, pointed at Lu Zhi and cursed: "Good for you.
You are an ordinary man who has been disadvantaged in a long battle, yet you are making so many excuses. When I go back, I will report it to the Holy One and punish you for being disadvantageous in battle."
After saying that, Zuo Feng threw the case and got up.
At this time, Lu Zhi's counselor grabbed Zuo Feng and kept interceding for Lu Zhi, but Lu Zhi was very uncooperative and kept yelling, and the counselor could not stop him.
Seeing this scene, Zuo Feng no longer had any illusions about Lu Zhi. This was the most useless time for him as a messenger of the Holy Emperor.
After Zuo Feng left the military camp, he immediately rushed to the capital.
