Hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers in Youzhou, Jizhou, Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Qingzhou, Chongzhou and other places were all reduced to "corpse soldiers" relying on the barrier under the attack of Zuo's army led by the gangster general Zuo Aoran.
"They were all defeated at the hands of the elite Tengjia Army of the Zuo Family Army (this fact is unknown, only that they were defeated by the Zuo Family Army), and the Yellow Turban Army began to collapse. A few months later, the Zuo Family Army broke through Guangzong City, and Zhang
The three brothers Jiao, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang burned themselves in the fire. The remaining Yellow Turban soldiers were suddenly leaderless and turned into a mess, and were wiped out by the army one after another.
In August 184 AD, Zuo Aoran led the army back in triumph. The Yellow Turban Rebellion, which was supposed to be put down in November 184 AD, ended three months earlier due to Zuo Aoran's participation.
Do you know if this is a blessing or a curse!?
Zuo Aoran ordered Xu Chu, Lei Xu, He Yi, and He Man to integrate the Yellow Turban prisoners with Guangzong, select the best ones and send them to the Taiping camp. After the integration was completed, he led his army to escort the Yellow Turban prisoners back to Zhuojun, waiting for the next step.
However, he led the army back to Luoyang, the capital. After resting for three days, a group of meritorious officials were announced to the palace.
Emperor Ling Liu Hongsheng ascended the palace, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty had finished paying their respects. Wen Dong and Wu Xi stood in front of each other. Zuo Aoran led all the soldiers out of duty and knelt down: "I say to my lord, long live long live long live. Fortunately for me,
In disgrace, we have put down the rebellion in the eight states of Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan. It is a pity that the thieves Zhang Jiao and the three brothers set themselves on fire in order to present their heads to Your Majesty."
Ling Emperor Liu Hong's face was red and beaming with joy. He laughed and said: "My love for you has been great, and your ability in commanding troops is comparable to that of Han Xin during the Great Ancestor's time. I will definitely give you a greater reward." After saying this, he turned to look at Zhang Rang beside him.
.
The first of the Ten Constant Attendants held the imperial edict in his hand and took a few steps forward. He opened his fingers and read out: "By God's blessing, the emperor's edict says: Grant Huangfu Song the title of Chariot and Cavalry General and lead Jizhou Mu. Grant Zhu Jun the title of Chariot and Cavalry General."
Cavalry General, Henan Yin. Confessed Dong Zhuo as a former general. Confessed Zuo Aoran as a general to conquer the north, a general in the capital's palace, a meritorious lord (named as a marquis), and was given a mansion. All his generals were made generals, and each received a reward of 100 gold and silver.
Two, they are still under the command of Zuo Aoran. It is your honor to give them!"
"Thank you, my emperor, long live long live! Long live long live!" Everyone kowtowed and thanked Zuo Aoran, kneeling down without saying thanks.
All the civil and military officials were shocked when they saw Zuo Aoran kneeling down and refusing to thank him. If he hadn't been in the court, everyone would have been pointing and talking. When Zhang Rang saw Zuo Aoran kneeling down and refused to thank him, he thought he was Zuo Aoran.
He was overjoyed and worried. This was the person he was trying to protect. He immediately winked at Zuo Aoran, but unfortunately Zuo Aoran didn't seem to see him. Fu Songwei had a look of astonishment on his face.
, but Zhu Jun was full of pride: "If you haven't seen the world, you haven't seen the world. You should be embarrassed! You will also lose your head in a short time!"
Ling Emperor Liu Hong was a little stunned when he saw Zuo Aoran not thanking him, and thought to himself: "Although the post of General Zhengbei is a false one, it is not small anymore. It is an official post second only to the Three Dukes. Besides, isn't it still a title?"
You are a great general who deserves to be shown off! What!? Isn’t that enough?” Thinking of this, Ling Emperor Liu Hong’s face became a little ugly, and with a stern look on his face, he shouted: “You are so bold, Zuo Aoran, I will give you the title of bestowal.”
Why don’t you thank me for your official position? Doesn’t it mean that the official position given to you is too small?”
"Hehe! This is what I have been waiting for, and you are finally willing to say it!" Zuo Aoran was secretly happy in his heart, and kowtowed to Ling Emperor Liu Hong, and said: "I don't dare, I just want to resign as General of Zhengbei, and be the governor of the capital.
Official positions such as Palace General, Jiangong Marquis..." Zuo Aoran deliberately stopped talking to this point in order for Ling Emperor Liu Hong to question incomprehensibly.
"What!? You actually want to resign and don't do anything!? Why is this? Do you think I am that indefensible, unprincipled and ignorant king?" Ling Emperor Liu Hong said angrily.
Okay! As long as you get angry, the shock that will follow will be greater, and the benefits you will get will be greater. Zuo Aoran looked at the person standing not far to the left.
It was none other than Lu Zhi, who was also one of the reasons why Zuo Aoran wanted to resign.
"Wei Chen once wrote a poem. As long as your Majesty listens to it, it means Wei Chen will resign. I wonder if Your Majesty is willing to listen?" Zuo Aoran said.
"Poetry? It's interesting. How can a mere martial artist know how to recite poems and write poems? I want to hear it!" Ling Emperor Liu Hong waved his hand and said: "I allow you to recite this poem, but if you are too contemptuous, I will punish you twice."
Guiyi, I will punish you severely!"
Zuo Aoran straightened up slightly and chanted in a loud voice: "He was so angry that he rushed to his crown. He stood by the balcony, and the misty rain stopped. He raised his eyes, looked up to the sky and roared, strong and fierce. Thirty years of fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon.
.Don't wait for a while, the young man's head is gray, and the sorrow is empty. The humiliation of Jingkang has not yet snowed, and the officials regret it, when will it be destroyed? Driving a long chariot to traverse the gap in the Helan Mountains. The ambition is to eat the meat of the Hun captives, and laugh and talk about drinking the blood of the Huns. Let's start again and clean up.
Old mountains and rivers, Chaotian Tower."
After the song "Man Jiang Hong" was sung, all the civil and military officials in the court were extremely shocked. The civil servants secretly sighed at Zuo Aoran's literary talents. The military officers' blood boiled with excitement as they felt as if they had traveled across the Xianbei grassland, eating the meat of Hungarians with great ambitions, laughing and talking about thirsty Huns.
Blood! After listening to this poem, Lu Zhi was even more excited than words could say. His hands almost trembled with excitement. He looked sideways at Zuo Aoran, his eyesight revealing infinite love and appreciation.
Ling Emperor Liu Hong was dumbfounded. Although Liu Hong liked women, money, and singing and dancing, he still had a lot of literary talents. How could he not hear the profound meaning in Zuo Aoran's poems? Even he himself was a little excited and wanted to
Let’s go for a ride on the grassland.
"The poem written by General Zuo was intended to expand the territory of the Han Dynasty, pacify the foreign barbarians, and achieve unparalleled achievements. In my humble opinion, the purpose of General Zuo's resignation is not to live in tranquility for a long time, but to
Xiang Hui's army gallops across the grassland to drive away those barbarians who dare to violate the majesty of our great Han Dynasty." Lu Zhi said.
Zuo Aoran knew very well that when you climb high, you should follow the pole. Lu Zhi had paved a starry road for himself, so he had to seize this opportunity. Then he kowtowed and said: "What Master Lu said is exactly what Wei Chen said."
I wish to resign from the above-mentioned official position, please ask Your Majesty to appoint me a Wuhuan school captain. I must let the barbarians know what it means to be powerful and inviolable."
There is something wrong with a high-ranking official who refuses to do anything but goes to that bitter cold place to fight to the death with foreigners. Many people in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty did not understand why Zuo Aoran did this, thinking that he must be a lunatic.
, Either the spirit must have been stimulated in some way, or else he cannot be so stupid! There are high-ranking officials who refuse to do it, and trade big for small!
"There is no better loyal general than this!" Zhang Jun, the doctor, came out of the class and said.
Liu Tao, an admonishing doctor, also came out to advise: "Your Majesty, General Zuo is unparalleled in his loyalty and righteousness, and he has made great achievements in suppressing rebellions. If he is only given the post of Colonel Wuhuan to protect Wuhuan, it will surely chill the hearts of loyal ministers and good generals in the world!
Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"In recent years, the Wuhuan tribe has been trying to make a move and has repeatedly invaded our territory in Youzhou. I think we can still appoint General Zuo as the General of the Northern Expedition and go to Danyang County to recruit the "Danyang soldiers" who are known as the soldiers of the Han Dynasty who have fought in hundreds of battles.
With General Zuo's ability, he will be able to train soldiers capable of hundreds of battles within a few months. After that, when he goes to Youzhou, he will be able to annihilate the Wuhuan tribe and make them dare not invade our border again." Situ Chen Dan said.
