"Reporting to my lord, battle report from a hundred miles away!”
"The camp outside Guangzong City is on fire…"
Li Jue's face was still filled with surprise, but before he could finish, Dong Zhuo interrupted him.
"The Yellow Turban Army attacked? Fortunately, I left quickly." Dong Zhuo patted his fat chest and thought, Fortunately, he had acted in time and the documents issued by the imperial court were timely enough to avoid the disaster. Otherwise, wouldn't he be like Li Chengde now and become a roasted pig?
Dong Zhuo had always been a cruel and merciless person. In his eyes, there was only selfishness and interests. Naturally, he was happy to be able to escape. As for Li Chengde, hmph, what did it matter to him whether he lived or died?
" This..." Li Jue was at a loss for words. His face turned red, as if he had something to say.
Looking at his trusted general's silly face, Dong Zhuo, who was in a good mood, immediately smiled and said,"If you have something to say, just say it. It's not like you to hesitate.”
Li Jue took a deep breath and tried to recover. He slowly said, My lord, you've misunderstood."
" According to the scouts we sent out, Li Chengde knew that the Yellow Turban army would attack the camp at night. He secretly took everyone out of the camp and covered it with kerosene. The Yellow Turban army fell into the trap and suffered a crushing defeat. The 100,000-strong army was almost wiped out..."
" Damn Li Chengde…" Dong Zhuo was so angry that he stomped his feet and cursed,""If he had such a good plan, why didn't he tell me earlier…"
Although he said this, he knew that Li Qing was of the same level as him and was not his subordinate. It was already unjust for him to escape. Moreover, Li Qing could not stand up to him. It was just that he was annoyed.
This was a huge credit, but it was taken away by Li Chengde alone. He had paid a big price to escape.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Dong Zhuo, who had wanted to eat something, instantly lost his appetite. This Li Cheng De was cunning and cunning. He looked loyal on the outside, but in reality, he was so black-hearted. In the future, when he saw him, he had to be extra careful.
……
"Good news!"
"Good news!"
At the same time, in Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, a fast horse galloped past. Only when it reached the palace gate did the messenger get off his horse and shout.
At Deyang Hall, it was the time of the court meeting. The Spirit Monarch was sitting on the dragon throne, drowsy. His panda eyes made him look a little sick. The civil and military officials were still discussing the matter. When they heard the news of victory, they all looked happy.
"Your Majesty, there is good news. It must be General Huangfu who defeated the Yellow Turbans.”
Hearing the good news, the Spirit Emperor's spirits were immediately lifted. He had been worried sick about the Yellow Turban Army's rampage some time ago. The country had been passed down from generation to generation by their ancestors and could not be destroyed in his hands. Fortunately, there were still good generals in the court. After that, they counterattacked step by step and the good news from the provinces and counties came, which made him feel a little relieved.
"Where's the messenger? Quickly summon him into the palace and tell me what he has done." the Spirit Monarch said hurriedly.
When Zhang Rang heard this, his face immediately turned slightly gloomy because Huangfu Song was a member of the gentry clan. Previously, when the Yellow Turban Army was wreaking havoc, the Ten Attendants had no choice but to cooperate with the gentry clan. However, now that the situation was gradually becoming clearer, the so-called cooperation naturally collapsed. Infighting began again.
"Report the victory!" Although he was unhappy, he did not dare to disobey the Spirit Monarch's words. His sharp voice immediately sounded.
When the messenger outside the hall heard this, he immediately walked in quickly. His lips were slightly pale. It was obvious that he had been on the road for several days.
" Your Majesty, good news from the north…" Kneeling on the ground, the messenger took out the long tube on his back.
The civil and military officials were all smiling when they saw this. In ancient times, there was Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and now there was Huangfu Song. The Great Han Dynasty had lasted for more than 400 years. Was this a sign that it was going to prosper again? If that was really the case, then it would be the fortune of the Great Han Dynasty and the fortune of their aristocratic families.
At this moment, the Spirit Monarch was not sleepy at all. He sat up straight and felt a little excited. There were many good news in the court. He should inherit the legacy of his ancestors and govern the martial arts.
" Hurry up and read it…" The Spirit Monarch couldn't wait any longer and urged.
" Your Majesty, there is good news from Jizhou. Three days ago, Dong Zhuo led his troops to attack Guangzong County. He was defeated and then led his troops to retreat. Only Li Chengde was left. He led his troops and 30,000 to 20,000 remaining soldiers. The Yellow Turban Army took the opportunity to attack the camp at night. Unexpectedly, General Li had expected this and withdrew from the camp in time, covering it with kerosene.”
" After the Yellow Turban Army enters the camp, burn the Yellow Turban soldiers and behead 100,000 people. The people of Jizhou will celebrate…"
His voice reverberated in the hall. However, this information made all the officials and even the Spirit Emperor completely dumbfounded.
The headquarters added 30,000 to 20,000 soldiers, and 100,000 heads were beheaded in one battle?
Everyone was shocked…
When Zhang Rang heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that it was not Huangfu Song. This Li Qing had not yet entered Luoyang to meet the Saint. If they could rope him in, the Ten Attendants of the Eternal would be able to have a general to lead troops, and their strength would immediately soar.
In an instant, Zhang Rang's eyes darted around as his thoughts raced.
Then he said loudly," Congratulations, Your Majesty. Guangzong City is the birthplace of the Yellow Turban bandits. General Li is so good at fighting. He will definitely be able to settle the world in one battle. Your Majesty knows how to use people well and will also achieve a good reputation and pass it down in history.”
