Luoyang was currently the most majestic city in the world. It was the political, economic, and cultural center of the Great Han Dynasty!
The city was ten zhang tall, and there was an endless stream of people every day. The merchants and soldiers were like carp crossing the river, and it was bustling! A life of luxury!
Even when the Western Liang rebel army threatened Chang 'an, Luoyang did not panic at all. It was like a paradise!
It was completely different from the scene in the Thirteen Prefectures of Great Han!
On this day, the morning sun was born. The first ray of sunlight shone on the earth. The huge city gate let out a heavy sound and slowly opened the gap!
The commoners and merchants who had gathered outside the city instantly gathered. The leisurely commoners began their day!
Meanwhile, the officials in the city began to prepare for the court. Under the calm court, there was another round of swords! If he was not careful, his family would be destroyed!
However, at this moment, on the wide official road in the west of Luoyang, a man wearing light armor with three flags on his back was riding a strong horse at a rapid pace!
From time to time, he would shout loudly,"Get out of the way. Emergency military intelligence!"
The commoners on the road fled one after another. In this day and age, not to mention being hit by a horse, they could not seek justice!
Even if he was killed by a servant of a rich family, he would die in vain!
The law was only a tool for those in power to maintain their rule. It was definitely not meant to serve the common people! They could only live in poverty! He struggled bitterly without any dignity!
Facing the rising sun, the messenger finally arrived at Luoyang and shouted,""Great news from Western Liang, our army has won! Western Liang's cavalry killed 30,000 Xiongnu barbarians!”
"What is it? Xi Liang's good news?"
The officials guarding the city did not dare to be negligent. They immediately cleared a path for him and sent people to escort him into the city!
He remembered that a few days ago, the Western Expedition Army had just received good news. They had defeated more than 100,000 rebel soldiers on the bluestone shore, and the entire court was happy! The entire country celebrated!
Why was there good news now? Moreover, it was the Xiongnu who had destroyed them! Killing 30,000 Xiongnu heads made the officials guarding the city gasp!
When the surrounding commoners heard the news of Western Liang's victory, they cheered, even though their lowly status did not have the right to discuss military and political matters!
However, as a citizen of the Great Han, in this era where the confidence of the people was extremely high, the victory of the Great Han filled every Han with pride!
Moreover, the Xiongnu were the ones who were exterminated this time. The Great Han and the Xiongnu were mortal enemies! The Western Liang army had killed 30,000 Xiongnu soldiers, which made them much more excited than defeating 100,000 rebel soldiers!
The messenger shouted along the way. The news of the victory in Western Liang quickly spread throughout Luoyang. Thirty thousand Xiongnu soldiers had stained Western Liang with their blood, causing an uproar in Luoyang. The burly man was still the same burly man!
At this moment, the entire Luoyang cheered!
"Long live the Great Han Dynasty!"
"The might of the Western Liang Army!"
This was Dong Zhuo's intention. The messenger was sent by Dong Zhuo, and the one shouting along the way was not the Western Expedition Army, but the Western Liang Army!
He told the people of Luoyang that it was the Western Liang Army who had killed 30,000 Xiongnu soldiers and had nothing to do with the Western Expedition Imperial Army!
At this moment, the prestige of the Western Liang army was infinitely elevated in the hearts of the Luoyang citizens!
At this time, it was time to prepare for the morning court session. A large number of officials had gathered outside the main hall and were discussing in small groups!
Suddenly, he heard a shout from outside the palace gate,""Good news from Western Liang! 30,000 Xiongnu barbarians have stained Western Liang with blood! Prince Xian of the Left, Xiu Tu She, is beheaded in the north!"
Then, he saw a group of imperial guards escorting a soldier towards the Emperor's study!
"30,000 Xiongnu were beheaded?”At the front of the officials, Sikong Yuanfeng looked at the disappearing back of the armored soldier. He was in a daze, as if he was deep in thought!
This was a good thing for the burly man, but in Yuan Feng's position, he had to consider more. What were the pros and cons behind this matter? Where should the Yuan family go?
"Did the Xiliang Army do this? That old man Dong Zhuo?" His younger brother Yuan Kui said in shock. The beheading of 30,000 Xiongnu people was indeed too shocking!
The Xiongnu weren't like those rebel soldiers. Even though the Southern Xiongnu only had a few hundred thousand people left, their combat strength was still strong! Just like the Qiang Tribe, they were a huge threat to the imperial court!
This time, 30,000 people were killed in one go, and even King Xian of the Left was beheaded! The Western Liang Army was a little too strong!
Not long after, the sound of the court session finally came from the hall. Everyone tidied up their appearance. No matter what they were thinking in their hearts, they all looked excited on the surface!
The victory in the battle of Xiliang was a great victory, and the heads of the Xiongnu were beheaded. As the subjects of the Han Dynasty, they had to be happy!
The Han Clan's royal court inherited the style of the Qin people. It was mainly tall and majestic, and the imperial palace was even more so. A few thousand feet in front of it made people feel how small they were, and it was filled with the might of heaven!
Sitting at the front of the hall was the current emperor, Liu Hong!
He looked like he was in his thirties and had an abnormal sickly expression on his face. He looked down at the ministers, but his eyes were filled with excitement!
After the ministers knelt down, Liu Hong changed his usual laziness and said,""The good news of the western expedition has arrived again.”
As he said this, he had a small yellow door read out the military report that had just been sent over. Liu Hong could not help but be excited!
Ever since he ascended the throne, the Great Han Dynasty had never had a good weather. If it wasn't an invasion from the outside world, it would be an internal rebellion! The aristocratic families were like parasites, sucking the flesh of the burly man!
Liu Hong had great ambitions, but reality forced him to be an incompetent ruler!
He also had the intention to accomplish Han Wu's matter and expand the territory of the Great Han Dynasty, but the reality did not allow it! The internal strife in the Great Han Dynasty was too serious. Even he, the emperor, had his hands tied!
A few days ago, the Western Expedition Army had received good news that hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers had been defeated, which made Liu Hong heave a sigh of relief!
And now, the Western Liang army had slaughtered 30,000 Xiongnu people in the north. The hundred-thousand Xiongnu people who were chased had fled in panic, and the head of the Xiongnu's Left Virtuous King was on the way to Luoyang!
This made Liu Hong ecstatic! It made him happier than the suppression of the rebellion! He had been in poor health for the past few years. When he heard the news, he laughed out loud!
"I, the former General Dong Zhuo, kowtow. I am honored by Your Majesty's heavenly might and the blessing of the Great Han Dynasty ~"
The voice of the Little Yellow Gate echoed throughout the entire hall. The opening was basically a bunch of nonsense, but all the officials listened with great interest!
Until they entered the details of the battle!
"On the 15th, General Meng Qian led 10,000 armored cavalry to the north and slaughtered 10,000 Xiongnu soldiers from King Li's tribe!”
"On the 16th, the troops of Prince Xian of the Left attacked and were defeated in one battle. Ten thousand people were beheaded. Prince Xian of the Left, Xiu Tu She, was beheaded, and the leader of the rebel army, Wang Guo, was beheaded!”
"On the 17th, Xi Liang's armored cavalry set out from the north and killed more than 10,000 Xiongnu tribesmen from all over the country. The rest fled in panic, and the north was at peace!”
"Meng Qian killed 30,000 Xiongnu soldiers and built the capital to intimidate the barbarians! The might of the Great Han Dynasty is brilliant!"
The
entire hall fell silent after the military reports were sent out. Everyone was dumbfounded after hearing the entire process of suppressing the rebellion!
