Luoyang City, inside the palace.
At this time, Lu Zhi had offended the eunuch Zuo Feng and suffered a defeat during the war.
Emperor Ling of Han was furious when he heard the slander and ordered Lu Zhi to be escorted back to the capital.
Si Tu Yuan Kui recommended Dong Zhuo to replace Lu Zhi.
At this moment, Emperor Ling of Han was waiting for news from Guangzong with joy.
Dong Zhuo was a talent favored by General He Jin, and he was also Yuan Kui's former official. Now the Yellow Bandits in Jizhou have been besieged in Guangzong City.
They are already at the end of their strength. Lu Zhi had besieged them for a long time before. I think they don't have much food and grass. Dong Zhuo should be able to easily take Guangzong and kill Zhang Jue and others!
Just when he was full of pride, the eunuch came to the hall with an anxious face to report.
"Your Majesty! Guangzong has urgent military information!"
"Hahahaha! I think the war is completely over, right? Read it."
"The day before yesterday... General Dong Zhuo, after replacing General Lu, attacked the city without authorization, and Zhang Jiao repeatedly resolved the offensive."
"His brothers Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao each led a special force to attack General Dong. Our army was defeated and returned. General Dong Zhuo's whereabouts are unknown!"
After the eunuch finished reading, he lay on the ground and dared not move.
"Bang!!"
Liu Hong slapped the dragon throne hard.
The civil and military officials in the court knelt down in fear.
"He Jin!! Yuan Kui!! Didn't you say that sending Dong Zhuo was a sure thing?!"
"Now the Yellow Turban bandits are about to come to my sight! Have you won a great victory?!"
"A bunch of good-for-nothings! Have you colluded with those Yellow Turban bandits? Do you want my head?!"
Yuan Kui was so scared that he trembled all over and said, "Your Majesty! I only want to serve the court, and the heavens can bear witness to this!"
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
He Jin didn't expect that the Yellow Turban bandits were so brave that they could even beat back Dong Zhuo.
...
Just as Liu Hong was getting furious, another eunuch hurried into the hall.
"Your Majesty!"
"There is urgent military information from Yingchuan."
Liu Hong collapsed on the dragon chair like a deflated ball.
"Yingchuan!? It was reported before that Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were besieged in Changsha."
"Did Yingchuan also fall?!"
"Great! Great!! What a bunch of rubbish! Rubbish!! If Yingchuan falls, the Yellow Turban bandits will be able to march straight to Luoyang!"
"If these Yellow Turban bandits march to Luoyang! All of you! Take up your weapons and defend the city walls!"
Zhang Rang, who was standing aside, naturally understood the importance of Yingchuan, and hurried forward to take over the document.
If Yingchuan really fell, Liu Hong would get angry, and they would really have to take up their swords and fight the Yellow Turban bandits on the city walls!
When Zhang Rang opened the report, his eyes were first filled with shock, and then his face flushed as he said, "Your Majesty!! It's a great victory!!!"
Liu Hong hurriedly stood up.
"Father! Read it quickly!!"
"Zhuo County Magistrate! Liu Yao! He personally led 4,000 soldiers to rescue the trapped General Zhu Jun and General Huangfu Song, and then attacked with fire at night, and defeated Bo Cai's 25-man army head-on! Killed Bo Cai in the battle array!!"
"Then he defeated the 100,000 Yellow Turban bandits who came to reinforce him, and tried his best to protect Yingchuan!"
Everyone present was dumbfounded after hearing Liu Yao's achievements.
Everyone was shocked.
Liu Yao? A small county magistrate could actually defeat the Yellow Turban Army?
The Yellow Turban Army entrenched in Yingchuan almost swallowed up Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's troops before.
Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's military talents are well-known throughout the Han Dynasty.
Where did this Liu Yao come from?
What Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song couldn't do was actually done by a county magistrate.
It's like you want to open a bath center, but you don't have enough funds, and then someone recommends you to go to the White Elephant Kingdom and raise some lizards on the second floor.
This sounds nonsense, but it's done!
Liu Yao raised the lizards, and he really did it.
"Your Majesty, here is a letter of recommendation from General Huangfu."
Zhang Rang took small steps and slowly walked to Liu Hong.
After Liu Hong tore open the envelope, he was overjoyed.
"Hahahahaha!! Good! God bless my Han Dynasty!"
"Huangfu Song said in the letter that he met a peerless talent, comparable to the champion marquis of that year!"
"And this person is a relative of the Han Dynasty! He is only 20 years old!"
"Such a person, I really want to meet him!"
In this world, the only people that Liu Hong can really trust, except for the eunuchs around him, are the relatives of the Han Dynasty.
These people are related to me by blood. Once the Han Dynasty falls, their status will also be lost.These people are just grasshoppers on the same rope.
I still trust Huangfu Song's character.
My health is getting worse day by day. If I can really get this pillar, my descendants will have someone to rely on.
Unlike these people in the court, each of them is only seeking profit for themselves.
At this time, Zhang Rang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are so lucky to have such a good general. The Yellow Turban bandits can be defeated in a snap!"
Liu Hong smiled and nodded: "Yes! That's right! That's right! Your words reminded me."
"Just right! Liu Yao can take over Dong Zhuo's position!"
"Come here! Draft an imperial decree!"
"My relative Liu Yao, you defeated the Yellow Turban bandits with all your strength! You killed the enemy in battle! You have made outstanding contributions!"
"I personally confer the title of General Huwei to Liu Yao! Command all the troops in Jizhou! Fight Zhang Jue! After the war, I will give you another reward!"
When He Jin heard the news, he wanted to stop him, but then he thought that if his men failed again, he might lose his position as a general.
Moreover, this person is a relative. Once he suppresses the Yellow Turban bandits, he will surely rise to prominence in the court. Such a person must be befriended.
And the Ten Eunuchs also sent their confidants to get in touch with Liu Yao first.
…
Yingchuan.
A team of vehicles slowly entered the Han army camp.
At this time, Liu Yao was training soldiers. Not long after, the deafening drum sound of gathering generals was heard. This order would only be issued when encountering a major event and the whole army was assembled.
Xu Chu looked at Liu Yao.
"My lord, could it be? The Yellow Turban bandits are attacking again?"
Jian Yong chuckled and said, "We have cleared all the Yellow Turban bandits near Yingchuan. I think the transfer order has come from above."
"Just go and see."
With that, Liu Yao and his party came to the outside of the central army tent.
At this time, a shrill voice came.
"Announce! Liu Yao, come forward to receive the order!"
Just as Liu Yao was about to step forward, Cao Cao suddenly pulled him and whispered:
"This man is Zuo Feng. He is one of the Ten Attendants. He is narrow-minded and very greedy. You should pay more attention to him."
Liu Yao nodded and stepped forward to receive the order.
