Beigong Boyu took Han Sui and Bian Zhang to attack Jincheng County, which was the November of the first year of Zhongping.
And just at this time, the battle of Hebei also entered the end stage. Zhang Jiao died, and Huangfu song broke Zhang Liang in Guangzong city in August, and immediately sent troops south to besiege Quyang city.
Zhang Jiao's three brothers are the three leaders of the Yellow turban army. Now Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang have died one after another. Zhang Bao, the general of Digong in Quyang, is the only leader of the Yellow turban bandits in Hebei Province.
However, after learning from Zhang Liang's lesson, Zhang Bao did not dare to leave the city in any case. He led his army to defend Quyang city and was completely scared to death.
The big brother who has mastered the secret of yellow scarf strength is dead. How can I compete with the army?
Zhang Bao refused to move in Quyang City, and huangfusong knew that there were many yellow turban thieves in the city. If he attacked the city by force, the casualties would not be small. Therefore, he stayed still and waited for the opportunity.
Lu Zhi left his post and went back to Beijing because of his insistence on not attacking and being offered advice by the eunuch Zuo Feng. However, Huangfu song was not the same. He broke Guangzong City, broke 100000 thieves, killed Zhang Liang, and passed the head of Zhang Jiao to the capital.
Therefore, Huangfu song encircles but does not attack, Han Ling emperor did not say anything, as long as he can win, Zhang Jiao is dead, Zhang Bao is nothing.
In front of the big tent of the Chinese army, several people and horses galloped to the camp. One of them was wearing a red cloak and his eyes were shining. He was the army commander Liu Ye.
Seeing Liu ye turn over and dismount, the guard soldier looks respectful: "see Liu Hou."
Liu Ye captured and killed Zhang Liang with his own hands. He made great contributions in the two wars of pacifying BOCAI and Zhang Jiao Zhang Liang. Huang Fu song also appreciated Liu Ye's courage and talent, so he reported his merits without reservation.
Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty was very happy with the two battles and two victories of Huangfu song. He also heard that Liu Ye was a descendant of the imperial clan. After the emperor Gaozu, he simply made Liu Ye a Marquis of the pass.
In fact, the Marquis of Guannei was not a superior rank. Since the reform of Shang Yang in the Qin Dynasty, the Marquis of Guannei was the 19th, far less than the nobility. In the Han Dynasty, the titles were divided into county Marquis, township Marquis and Ting marquis. For example, Huo Qubing, the famous Marquis of Huo Qubing, was named champion Hou, and the champion was a county; Guan Yu was named Hanshou tinghou.
However, many people in the Han Dynasty had a history of being canonized as neihou. For example, the famous envoy Su Wu said that "those who violate the strong Han will be punished even if they are far away". The most famous one is Wei Qing, the famous general of Emperor Wu. Because he killed hundreds of Huns in Longcheng, he was granted the inner marquis.
Those who have been granted Marquis are generally referred to as "Jun" or "Hou". Although Liu Ye is now just a military commander, those captains and even generals, if they don't have the title of knighthood, they should still call him "Marquis Liu".
Liu Ye waved his hand: "I have something important to report to the general."
Guarding the soldiers and trying to stop him, Liu Ye strides in, while Huang Fu Song is still busy reading a volume of books, which is also a Book of war. Many legends of the pre Qin strategists wrote books, but many of them were lost later, such as Sun Bin's art of war.
"Yuqing is here. Sit down."
Liu Ye didn't sit down. Instead, he stepped forward and took out a handwritten letter from his arms and handed it to him: "general Lang, at the end of his patrol, an arrow shot out of the city, and the letter was on the arrow."
Huang Fu Song nodded, took the letter, opened a look, can not help but laugh out.
"The thief named Yan Zheng said that he could open the gate of the city and let our army enter the city. Jade Qing, do you think it is true to surrender, or is the yellow scarf thief pretending to surrender and lead our army into the city?"
Liu Ye thought about it for a moment, and then said, "Dong Zhuo withdrew from Guangzong and besieged Quyang city for more than two months. Now our army has besieged Quyang city for three months. In total, Quyang city has been besieged for half a year. There are still 70000 yellow turban thieves in the city. I'm afraid there is not much left in the past six months Recently. "
Huang Fu Song nodded and agreed with Liu Ye's analysis: "go on."
Liu Ye continued: "there are many yellow turban thieves. If we fight back against each other, even if our army is elite, there will be many casualties. Now, although we don't know whether it is true or not, it is also a rare opportunity..."
"If someone asks to enter the city first, general Lang will lead the soldiers and take charge of the city gate. If the Yellow turban thieves really want to come down, we will destroy the city in one fell swoop. If the yellow scarf robbers feign surrender, it is not too late for a certain army to kill back. "
Hearing Liu Ye's request, huangfusong smiles and nods: "OK, I'll act according to your plan."
Then Huang Fu Song said in a positive way: "Yu Qing is brave and resourceful. He has been fighting under a certain command, which is quite wasteful. If the city of Quyang is broken after this, he should recommend Yu Qing to go out of the town and be the prefect of a county."
With Huangfu song, Cao Cao defeated 100000 yellow turban thieves in changshe. With this credit and the connections between his father Cao song and his grandfather Cao Teng in the imperial court, Cao Cao was able to serve as the Prime Minister of Jinan.
Although there was no one in the imperial court, Liu Ye's military record was better than that of Cao Cao. He was unstoppable all the way from Qingzhou to the north and south of the Yellow River. Although he was given a Marquis of Guannei, huangfusong cherished his talents and wanted to recommend Liu Ye.Liu Ye clasped his fist: "duomenglang will love you dearly."
"Well, go back and prepare. Be careful."
The time agreed by Yan Zheng in his handwriting is three quarters of Zishi, and it will come in a flash.
In Quyang City, at this time, it was a little flustered, because the remaining grain storage was less than 10 days. Although Zhang Bao repeatedly blocked the news, there was no airtight wall in the world. Zhang Bao, like his two brothers, usually likes to play tricks, but he can't produce food out of thin air. Therefore, even if huangfusong does not act, and within half a month, there will inevitably be civil strife in Quyang city. As for huangfusong and LiuYe, they believe that book offering in the city is just to speed up the process.
"Did general Digong rest?"
A slender yellow scarf general with sharp eyes went to Zhang Bao's house and asked.
The guards in front of Zhang Baofu looked at each other and did not dare to offend Yan Zheng, a senior general. Therefore, he said, "general Yan, general Digong is working hard day and night. I'm afraid he has fallen asleep at the moment. What's the matter, come back tomorrow?"
Yan Zheng frowned: "you go and tell the general that I have a way to solve the problem of grain and grass."
Two Pro guards looked at each other and nodded. One Pro Wei said, "well, in this case, I will go to ask the general of Digong."
A moment later, the guard came back.
"General Digong, please come in and talk about it in detail!"
