Tuoba Feng gave up the territory of Xianbei in the north, gave up all the tribesmen, led an army of 20,000 to retreat while fighting, and fled all the way to the Heavenly Eagle Plain at the northern foot of Yin Mountain. ∮ Yan Moxuan ∮ no advertisements∮ if he retreated, he would be completely driven out of the Xianbei country by the army of the leader.

On the Vulture Plain, tents are lined up, flags are fluttering, and horns are excited. The handsome Tuoba Hui and Tuoba Tao led 5,000 Xianbei soldiers to meet each other. Tuoba Feng hugged the two of them one by one, and smiled excitedly: "You two put on such a big posture to pick me up, do you think that I didn't lose the battle badly enough, and I didn't lose enough face?" ”

Tuoba Tao laughed and said, "Your Excellency is about to become the lord of the grassland, and it is natural to greet you with great gifts. ”

Tuoba Yan also smiled: "In the future, my lord will stand on top of the royal court of Danhan Mountain, accusing us of being rude in the Heavenly Eagle Plain, and we can't afford it." ”

Tuoba Feng couldn't help the joy in his heart, and affectionately hugged the shoulders of the two and said: "I, Tuoba Feng, can have today, all thanks to the brave fight of your brothers, and the best pasture on the prairie in the future will be yours." ”

Tuoba Hui and Tuoba Tao hurriedly thanked him, and a group of people laughed and happily walked into the big tent.

"The Dongqiang people have been here for three days." Tuoba Hui pointed to the map and introduced to Tuoba Feng, "The great marshal Xu Kui is ambushed to the west of the Eagle Plains with an army of 10,000 people, and the army of White Horse Copper is on the way, and it can be arrived tomorrow." He sent someone to say that he would lead his army directly to the east of the Eagle Plains to ambush him, and he would not meet with the adults for the time being. ”

"How many people are here for the White Horse Copper Belt?" Tuoba Feng asked, "Since the Huns have abandoned Meiji and all of them have withdrawn from the Yellow River, they should make up their minds to advance and retreat with us, and stop looking ahead and hesitating, it will not benefit them." ”

Tuoba smiled slightly and stretched out three fingers.

"Thirty thousand?" Tuoba Feng asked in surprise, "Have the Marquis of Xubu Bone and the White Horse Copper figured it out?" Are they willing to follow me to attack Danhan Mountain? ”

Tuoba nodded his head. Tuoba Feng's expression was relieved, and he let out a long breath, "This is thanks to the Han people." If it weren't for the fact that they were preparing to attack the Huns and cornering them, they would not have made such a big determination to abandon Meiji and retreat north to the Yellow River. The Huns withdrew across the Yellow River, although they could temporarily block the iron cavalry of the Han people by virtue of the danger of the Yellow River, but they could not escape the pursuit of the Han people after all, and if they wanted to survive, they could only form an alliance with us and help each other. With my current strength, of course, it will be difficult to help them repel the Han Chinese, but if I control the royal court of Danhan Mountain, it will be different. Not only can I help them repel the Han Chinese, but I can also help them occupy the land of the Han Chinese. Once we join forces with the Xiongnu, the land north of the Great Wall of the Han people will be ours from now on. I gave the Huns such generous conditions, if the Marquis of Xubu Gudu and Baima Tong still did not agree to help me take Danhan Mountain, then they would be idiots and would have killed themselves. ”

Tuoba smiled and said: "There is no benefit, of course the Huns are unwilling to agree." It is a fact that after the battle of Yanmen Pass, our strength was greatly damaged, if the Huns helped us, but we were still defeated by the Kuitou, they would be attacked by both the Kuitou and the Han Chinese, so they were very hesitant for a while, unwilling to accept our suggestion to abandon Meiji and withdraw across the Yellow River. The Dongqiang people were reluctant to send troops because Xu Hui had this concern. ”

"Fortunately, the Han people helped us at this time, and they wanted to use their national strength to fight in the fortress. One is to quell the rebellion of the Huns, and the other is to recover the four northern counties. The news couldn't have been worse for the Huns. If the Huns can't defeat the Han people, they will flee north to Yinshan, and they will take refuge in our Xianbei country. At that time, who would take in the Huns? If we are gone, the Leader and the Fallen Warriors will not take them in, but will take the opportunity to destroy their people. Therefore, the Huns now have only one choice, and that is to help us defeat the Kuitou. In the future, whether we are for ourselves or for them, we will both join forces to deal with the attack of the Han Chinese. If you win, both of us will benefit, and if you lose, the Huns can enter and take refuge. ”

"It's the same with the Dongqiang people. If the Han defeated the Huns, they would be the next target. The Dongqiang people went south every year to kidnap the Han people, how could this hater of the Han people not take revenge? However, Xu Hui was smart, he saw the situation clearly early, and took the army to Yinshan, unlike the Marquis of Xubu Bone and Baima Tong, for fear that he would suffer a loss, but when the army withdrew across the Yellow River, he was beaten hard by the Han people, and thousands of people were broken, and these people died in vain. ”

"If we don't have such a big loss in Yanmen Pass, and our strength is still there, where do we need to look at the faces of these people and suffer from such bird anger." Tuoba said angrily.

"Then you'd be wrong." Tuoba said with a smile, "If we hadn't lost our strength in the Battle of Yanmen Pass, how could the leader take the opportunity to attack us?" If the leader doesn't fight us, how can we have a chance to kill the leader, re-establish Qianman, control Danhan Mountain, and dominate the prairie? Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity we could never have dreamed of. This opportunity is what tens of thousands of our soldiers have exchanged for their lives, it is very precious, very precious, and we want to thank those Tuoba warriors who died in Yanmen Pass. ”

"This opportunity came very suddenly, without warning, we were caught off guard, we were not prepared at all." Tuoba Feng smiled, "The Kui's attack speed is even faster, so far, we really haven't been able to fight back except to retreat. To tell the truth, if it weren't for the news that the Han army was going to fight in the fortress from the Great Han Kingdom, we Tuoba tribe would probably be more auspicious this time. Fate is so strange, yesterday, we were still struggling in a desperate situation, but today, we are in the grip of dominating the prairie, haha......"

"My lord, we still have to be cautious." Tuoba Wei said, "At present, we know that Luoluo clearly supports the leader, and he has led an army of 20,000 to follow the leader, but what about Murong Feng and Miga? Why haven't they shown up? Was the boss's large-scale attack the idea of himself and Luoluo Luoluo, or was it planned by Murong Feng? If it was planned by Murong Feng, then wouldn't it ...... for us to attack Danhan Mountain?"

Tuoba Yan shook his hand and said, "Don't worry about Dashuai, this matter has nothing to do with Dashuai." We have already received definite information from Danhan Mountain that this battle is to be fought by the leader himself. He was worried that Da Shuai would stop him, so he didn't reveal any news in advance, and Da Shuai and Micah didn't know. As for Luoluoluo, we all know what he thinks. He's been following the head for a reason. Let's not provoke him, he will leave himself. Now that his goal has been achieved, what are he still doing in Eagle Plain? Do you want us to send him back to the west? ”

There was laughter in the tent.

Tuoba Feng smiled: "The speed of Kuitou's attack is very fast, the speed of our retreat is even faster, and by the time Murong Feng gets the news, Kuitou has already died in the Heavenly Eagle Plain." The leader is dead, what else can he do? Does he still want to take revenge on the leader with a large army? In order to keep his throne, the leader attacked us and plotted to kill Qianman, which was already hated by the Xianbei tribes. After the head is ambushed, the new king can return to Danhan Mountain, and Xianbei will be stabilized, at this time, does Murong Feng dare to provoke civil strife in Xianbei? In addition, in terms of time, Murong Feng didn't have time to go north to support. Don't worry, Murong Feng will definitely be angry with the leader this time. For the sake of Xianbei's stability, he will definitely not go north to find us trouble. ”

"I think it's better to be cautious." Tuoba Wei looked at Tuoba Feng, who looked happy, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Danhan Mountain has been damaged repeatedly, and its strength has long been weak, but the leader can still quickly gather a large army to attack us, what does this mean?" It shows that he still has strength and money. We know how much strength is left in Danhan Mountain, and even if Luo helped the leader, it was limited. So I think there must be someone else behind the leader to help him, if it wasn't for Murong Feng and Mika, who would it be? Last time, a thousand commanders told me that many soldiers had discovered that the Danhanshan people were using Han weapons, and this was ......."

Tuoba Feng said indifferently, "As long as we kill the leader in the Eagle Plain, none of this matters anymore. If the Tuoba people want to rise to the prairie, they must take advantage of the opportunity of controlling Danhan Mountain to make contributions to the Xianbei country and expand the territory for the Xianbei country. To do this, we need a stable and strong Xianbei country. Therefore, in order to avoid the split of Xianbei and prevent the civil strife in Xianbei, we must kill the leader, which is the most important thing for us at present. ”

"Prepare your troops and horses for a great battle, so that it will be decided in one battle."

Three days later, Kuitou's army was surrounded by Tuoba Feng's 60,000 allied troops in the Eagle Plain, and the two sides fought a bloody battle.

The 20,000 troops who had been placed in Luoluo were blocked by Tuoba Mu with 5,000 iron cavalry on the grassland ten miles away from the battlefield, and they were in a dilemma.

The meaning of the banquet is that you can go. At this time, if you enter the battlefield, first, to offend Tuoba Feng, second, to lose your troops, and third, if you can't save the leader, Tuoba Feng will be charged with rebellion in the name of King Xianbei, which will be very troublesome in the future. Yan Li lobbied, even if we rescued the leader, what is the point? It is nothing more than to let Tuoba Feng and Murong Feng fight, but the Xianbei Kingdom will be in war from now on, and there will be no peace. In comparison, it is better for the head to die, let Tuoba Feng set up a little king, so that the court of Danhan Mountain will be useless, and in the future, the strength of the Xianbei departments will increase greatly, check and balance each other, and everyone will be safe and sound.

Luo Luo looked ahead and was silent.

Ri deduced the performance and looked at Yan Liyou, and said with a smile: "What are we sending troops for?" Could it be that Tuoba Feng killed the leader? Why do we want Tuoba Feng to stand in the royal court of Danhan Mountain and point fingers at us, what is he? The leader died, Tuoba Feng picked a big bargain to dominate the grassland, and then we followed Tuoba Feng to see his face, are we idiots? Hungry? If Tuoba Feng recruits the Xianbei tribes to crusade against us in the name of the Xianbei King, where will we flee? Flee to the desert and eat sand? ”

Yan Liyou laughed, he touched his bald head, and said happily: "Okay, let's go and rescue the leader, in this way, Danhan Mountain is gone, and the Xianbei royal court is gone, let's each be our own king, haha......"

Luo Luo and Ritsu looked at each other and smiled.

"You said that if we kill it now, can we defeat Tuoba Feng?"

Ritsuri said with a smile: "Tuoba Feng is dead. He thought that our goal had been achieved, and in order to preserve our strength, we would not dare to provoke him, and we would turn around and leave, so he didn't want to think about it, if we were to fight with him, would he still be able to stop Murong Feng? If he knew our true purpose, he would probably not kill the leader, but kill us first. ”

"Haha...... Let Tuoba Feng die of anger. Luo Luo Luo laughed and turned around and shouted, "Blow the trumpet, attack, let's kill the king, and rescue the king......"

The horn of the charge burst into the sky.

****

The Hun Zhonglang led his troops to successfully capture Meiji, and the army swept south of the Yellow River.

The news was first sent to the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and Xu Rong was bittersweet. Happily, Shan Yuting's capital Meiji was recaptured, and the Xiongnu Da Shan Yu could return to his residence south of the Yellow River with his clansmen. The worry is that Meiji was not defeated by Kojiyi, but by the Hun rebels who took the initiative to let it out.

The Marquis of Xubu Gudu and Bai Ma Tong suddenly led the army to retreat, retreating for hundreds of miles overnight, catching the Han army by surprise. Although Li Yi immediately decided to supervise the fierce pursuit of the army, he captured nothing but the 3,000 cavalry who held on to the south of the Yellow River to cover the main force of the Xiongnu rebels crossing the river. The soldiers of the Han army could only look at the surging Yellow River and sigh to the sky, crying out in vain. The sudden retreat of the Xiongnu rebels to the north disrupted the Han army's established strategy, and Xu Rong and Lu Yi were very worried about whether the situation in Xianbei would change as the Xiongnu rebels crossed the river. Seeing that Tuoba Feng had reinforcements, the leader would definitely not dare to raise troops easily. Will Xianbei still have civil strife?

The news of the Han army's recovery of Meiji was then sent to Luoyang. The Son of Heaven was overjoyed, and issued a decree to give the seal of Koji Yi and all the iron horses. Yu Yufuluo, who was a guest in Luoyang, was even more pleasantly surprised, but after he listened to his subordinates' reports, he couldn't be happy. Although the settlements south of Meijicheng and the Yellow River were recovered, now the Xiongnu south of the Yellow River only had 70,000 or 80,000 people from the Shan Yuting and Zuo tribes, and the rebels and the right tribes south of the Yellow River all crossed the river to the north. More than 300,000 Southern Huns were divided into two and then north and south, and belonged to two different Shan Yuting.

In fact, as early as July and August, after the Han army retreated to the Great Wall, the Marquis of Xubu Gudu quietly ordered the army to forcibly move the Xiongnu tribesmen living south of the Yellow River to the north of the Yellow River. This matter is known to Da Dan, and the Hun Zhonglang General Koi Yi also knows. At that time, Da Shan Yu warned Lu Yi, saying that the Marquis of Xubu Gudu migrated his people, and it was likely that he would lead his army to withdraw north to the Yellow River, and block the Han army according to the danger of the Yellow River, so as to achieve the purpose of splitting the Xiongnu and building Shan Yuting by himself. Koyi also had this concern, but his army lacked food and could not travel long in the area north of the Great Wall and south of the Yellow River to prevent the Xiongnu rebels from migrating population, so he was also helpless and had no choice but to let it go.

Yu Fuluo could not tolerate the Xiongnu splitting again, and he hurriedly asked to meet the Son of Heaven of the Great Han State, and begged the Son of Heaven of the Great Han State to send troops to cross the Yellow River to the north to suppress the Xiongnu rebellion, so as to maintain the integrity of the Xiongnu Shan Yuting. After listening to Yu Fuluo's complaint and pleading, the Son of Heaven said with a smile, I promise you that I will help you kill the rebels, there is only one big single of the Huns, and I will never allow a second single to appear north of the Great Wall. With the promise of the Son of Heaven of the Great Han Kingdom, Yu Fuluo was much more relieved, and he immediately asked to return to Meiji City to preside over Shan Yuting and help the Han army cross the Yellow River north to quell the rebellion. After the Son of Heaven kept it for a while, he agreed, and gave a large number of valuable gifts.

As soon as Yu Fuluo left Beijing, the court debated whether to send troops to the north to cross the Yellow River and whether to revise the strategy of the Northern Xinjiang War.

Taiwei Ma Riyan, Taifu Yang Biao and other ministers believed that the Marquis of Subu Gudu was very afraid of the Han Dynasty, and he took the initiative to withdraw from Meiji and migrate his clans to cross the Yellow River to the north is a good example. In addition, the Marquis of Xubu Gudu is still constantly sending people to Beijing to beg for pardon from the Han Dynasty, hoping that his Da Dan Yu can be recognized by the Han Emperor, which shows that he rebelled against the Xiongnu Da Dan Yu, not our Han State, and he himself is still very willing to submit to the Han State. If the Marquis of Subu Gudu is willing to submit, why can't we accept him? Now, the Huns have been divided into two, standing across the river, and fighting in separate courts, in this situation where the division of the Huns has become a fait accompli, why can't Your Majesty recognize the two big Dan Yu at the same time? Allowing the Xiongnu to establish two Shan Yuting in the north and south of the Yellow River at the same time could not only split the Southern Xiongnu and weaken the strength of the Southern Xiongnu, but also quickly stabilize the Henan region (that is, the present-day Hetao region), and His Majesty did not break the original promise to the Xiongnu. Once the Xiongnu Rebellion was peaceful, the second stage of the Northern Xinjiang War was already decided without a fight, and the Han army could directly attack Xianbei and regain the lost territory from Yanmen Pass. Why did Your Majesty insist on not agreeing to this kind of good thing, which can not only quickly quell the rebellion, but also weaken the strength of the Southern Xiongnu, save the time and military resources of the Northern War, and stabilize the Northern Xinjiang as soon as possible?

Ministers such as Weiwei Liu Bo, Guangluxun Liu Hong, and Shangshu Ling Huangfu Song believed that the Southern Xiongnu were already weak, and it made no sense to divide them. People like the Marquis of the Sulbu Gudu are rebellious by nature. Since he even dared to kill his own big Danyu, what else did he not dare to do? If we are forced to agree to the Marquis of Subu for various reasons, he will not only not be grateful to us, but will hate us even more. We divided the Xiongnu, and if the Xiongnu recognized two Da Dan Yu at the same time, would he still be grateful to us? Even if he doesn't rebel right away, he will gather momentum to rebel. What if he rebelled against the Xianbei when our army was attacking the Xianbei people, and we were left to care? We admit that the Marquis of the Bones of the Beard is actually offended by Yu Fuluo. If the Marquis of Subu Gudu rebels again, I'm afraid that the angry Yuvro will not take the initiative to help us. At that time, the disaster of the Xiongnu will be even greater, and the war in northern Xinjiang will take more time and military resources, and it will be even more difficult to say whether the northern Xinjiang can be stabilized as soon as possible.

The ministers argued loudly in the court, and the Son of Heaven slept with his eyes closed, too lazy to listen.

Zhang Rang, the regular attendant, suddenly pointed at Ma Riyan and said loudly: "My Han Kingdom is powerful all over the world, how can I do such a villain thing to make the world laugh." His Majesty the Guangwu Emperor said that my Han Kingdom only recognizes one Da Shan Yu, that is, the Da Shan Yu of the Southern Xiongnu, can this also be changed? My dignified Han Kingdom actually accepted the threat of a Hu rebellion, so where is the prestige of my Celestial Empire? ”

There was silence in the court. Ma Riyan, Yang Biao and other ministers glared at Zhang Rang one by one, their faces full of anger. This reason is taken up by Zhang Rang, and everyone really doesn't dare to say it anymore.

The Son of Heaven suddenly felt that there was a silence in his ears, which was very strange, and he opened his eyes in surprise and looked around, thinking why was it suddenly not noisy?

Zhang Rang was unforgiving, turned to the Son of Heaven and said: "Lord Taiwei has lived in Taixue for a long time, neglected state affairs, and even acted arbitrarily in such a matter related to the dignity of the country, so how to deal with the government affairs?" The ministers asked Your Majesty to restore the Three Princes' Mansions immediately, and it is better to manage the government and politics of each other, lest Lord Taiwei take care of the three mansions by himself, and make mistakes in his busy schedule and ruin the country's major affairs. ”

When the ministers heard this, they were furious and rushed upwards in anger. A eunuch would dare to interfere in the government so blatantly. Everyone spoke out one after another, scolding Zhang Rang and a group of regular servants to the point of blood. Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo and others also did not show weakness, grabbed the handle just now and fought back, opening their mouths to scold.

The Son of Heaven saw that their emotions were getting more and more excited, and their words were becoming more and more harsh, and he hurriedly stopped: "Zhang Aiqing is reasonable, Lord Taiwei's words are indeed inappropriate, and it is not the majesty of my Great Han Kingdom, so this discussion is abandoned." ”

Zhang Rang and others were proud, and Ma Riyan and others were furious.

The Son of Heaven looked at Ma Riyan carefully and said with a smile: "Lord Taiwei is tired, and it is too difficult for you to take care of the three mansions alone." In this way, Lord Guangluxun Liu Hong Liu will move to Sikong from now on and be in charge of Sikong Mansion. Lord Sikong Ding Gongding was reappointed as Situ, and immediately returned from Hedong to preside over Situ's mansion after receiving the order, and his concurrent position as the general of Zhengbei was temporarily represented by Li Hong, the general of Zhenbei. Considering that Li Hong, the general of Zhenbei, is currently commanding the war in Youzhou, the affairs of the general of the northern part of the expedition are temporarily represented by Xu Rong, the general of Jinyang. ”

The ministers were stunned, and the court was silent again, only the lazy voice of the Son of Heaven floated in the empty hall.

"Wei Wei Liu Bo was reappointed as Guangluxun, Wuguan Zhonglang relocated Dong Zhong to Wei Wei, and advised Da Liu He to move to Wuguan Zhonglang General."

The Son of Heaven paused for a moment and looked at the ministers above with interest, his eyes full of ridicule and mockery.

The ministers suddenly understood that all this was deliberately arranged by the Son of Heaven, and this Son of Heaven, who was getting thinner and thinner, was now scheming and more and more difficult to guess. Sikong Ding Palace went to Hedong, Situ Xu dismissed the official, and let the Taiwei Ma Riyan take over the three mansions, these things seem to be the Son of Heaven in order to win over the scholars and deliberately suppress the power of the lieutenant officials and generals, but in fact, the Son of Heaven cleared the obstacles in order to cultivate the power of the clan. Now Liu Hong of the clan is the secretary, the son of the queen mother's brother, Tiao Hou Dong is in charge of the southern army, the guard Liu Bo is reappointed as Guangluxun, the general of Zhenbei Li Hong is acting as the general of the expedition to the north, and Liu He, the son of Liu Yu, the herd of Youzhou, also suddenly appeared in the field of vision of the Son of Heaven, and the power of the clan has grown rapidly. Today, the heart of the son has been revealed, and it is becoming more and more resolute.

The Son of Heaven deliberately cultivated the power of the clan and strengthened the power in his hands, but in the final analysis, he did not trust the scholars, and he was afraid that he would be restrained by the scholars but controlled by the scholars. It is false that he is trying to win over scholars, but it is true that he is secretly supporting his own strength. In order to ensure that the battle for the emperor was undefeated, the Son of Heaven finally chose to rely on the Zhongguan and the clan. Look at today's court, scholars and clans are evenly matched and contain each other. Although the power of the central officials was suppressed, they were firmly in the inner court. Only the general's line was hit and was in danger. The Son of Heaven has told the scholars how they will behave with themselves.

"Do you have any objections?"

What are the objections? At this time, it's too late to say anything, and it's boring to say it. With a sentence from the Son of Heaven, Ma Riyan became the most powerful lieutenant in the Great Han Kingdom, which made the scholars of the world excited and let the scholars of the world see the hope of the revitalization of the Great Han Kingdom. But only more than 20 days later, the same Son of Heaven said a word, and the high-ranking and powerful Taiwei became an ornament. Today's Son of Heaven is unfathomable. What's next? Is it to make the court of the Han Kingdom become the world of the Dong family? Now that the eunuch has not been removed, the general is still there, and the queen mother's family has appeared again, when will the court of the Han Kingdom become Lang Lang Qiankun?

Lu Zhi pondered for a long time and walked out slowly, "Your Majesty, only those with high seniority can serve as the general of the expedition, although the expedition will be dismissed, but no matter what, it is also a great general of my Great Han Kingdom. Shangshu Lu Zhi said, "General Zhenbei's qualifications are too shallow, Your Majesty asked him to act as an agent for the military of the Northern General, and he will be criticized by the government and the opposition. ”

What is Lu Zhi worried about? The Son of Heaven first appointed Sikong Ding Palace's lord and the general of the expedition to Peking University to sit in Hedong, and then called Ding Gong back with a false shot, and asked Zhenbei General Li Hong to act as his agent. The Son of Heaven's move is nothing more than to give Li Hong a prominent identity and pave the way for him to return to Beijing to serve as Jiuqing in the future. Why did the Son of Heaven rush to let Li Hong return to the court? Lu Zhi was extremely uneasy.

With Li Hong's background and age, no matter how high his merits are, it will be impossible for him to achieve the position of Jiuqing in the past few years. Because of his outstanding military exploits and the grace of the Son of Heaven, a warrior from a pariah background was able to become a general of Zhenbei in just five years, which was unprecedented in the Great Han Kingdom. It is acceptable for a lowly warrior to go out to fight as a general, but once he enters the court, and he is still the post of Jiuqing, it cannot be accepted. The bureaucrats who were born as scholars were not only ashamed to be ministers of the same court as them, but also ashamed to pay them the courtesy. This kind of thing is the Son of Heaven, and he can't wantonly rebel against the laws of the Han Dynasty and the ancestral system because of his own preferences, so that the scholars and bureaucrats will be insulted. In this dynasty, even a poor scholar is rarely willing to sit at the same table with a pariah and eat at the same case. Li Hong is in a high position, why is no one willing to marry him so far? The scholars were reluctant to marry him, the rich and powerful were afraid of losing face, the rich and powerful were afraid of being scolded as a clinging magnate, and the untouchables certainly did not dare to climb high and marry him. If Li Hong, who was born as a pariah, was in charge of the court in the early years of this dynasty, it would be natural for him to return to the court, but in today's era when the scholars are in charge of the court, it is simply impossible.

The generals of this dynasty are far more noble than the generals of the northern expeditions, and the ministers who can generally be the generals of the northern expeditions are all highly qualified ministers in the DPRK. After the general of the expedition to the north is over, he will return to the court as an official, and he can be appointed as Jiuqing. Lu Zhi believes that the Son of Heaven plans to let Li Hong act as the general of the expedition to the north first, and then find an opportunity for him to directly become the general of the expedition to the north after the ministers of the court and the central government are adapted, and then wait for a while, the Son of Heaven and other ministers of the court and the central government have adapted and recognized again, and the Son of Heaven will probably let Li Hong return to the court to take up his post. Lu Zhi thought, first of all, regardless of whether the ministers can accept Li Hong's return to the dynasty as secretary, first think about why the Son of Heaven is so anxious to let Li Hong return to the dynasty, is the Son of Heaven impatient, and wants to take advantage of the fact that the Northern Xinjiang War is not over to solve the matter of the emperor first? But once the establishment of the imperial system begins, Luoyang will be in chaos, doesn't the Son of Heaven want to fight the battle of the northern frontier again?

Lu Zhi wanted to take a look, but the Son of Heaven said lightly that General Zhenbei was only a temporary agent, and Lord Situ Ding was only returning to the court to take care of official business temporarily. Waiting for the war in Northern Xinjiang, Lord Situ still has to go to Hedong to sit down, don't think too much about it.

Many ministers thought the same way as Lu Zhi, but the words of the Son of Heaven made them even more uneasy. What is the Son of Heaven hiding? How on earth is he going to solve the matter of the emperor's rule? When will the resolution begin?

The general He Jin's heart was like heavy lead, silent and panicked.

At the end of this month, due to the lack of relief and the spread of the plague, there were more and more riots in the seven counties, and the scale of the riots was also increasing.

Ministers have demanded more relief money and food to ease tensions in the affected states and counties. The Son of Heaven was very angry, and he said that I had allocated three billion dollars for disaster relief, how could it be not enough? Do you want me to transfer General Zhenbei to the disaster area for disaster relief? Taiwei Ma Riyan advised, Your Majesty, the situation is very tense now, and a major riot may occur in the affected prefectures and counties at any time, even if 100,000 people urgently recruit the general of Zhenbei, it is too late, and it is better to hurry up and organize food to be delivered to the victims.

The Son of Heaven laughed angrily, "I just allocate another 10 billion dollars, and I can't help the victims, does Aiqing know why?" ”

Ma Riyan looked sad and indignant, speechless.

"I'm not going to give another money." The Son of Heaven said, "The decree was sent to the affected prefectures and counties, and the prefectures immediately recruited county soldiers to kill the rebels. Each state can levy 20,000 county soldiers, each county can levy 10,000 county soldiers, and each county can levy 2,000 county soldiers. The wealthy people of the gate lord clan can form volunteers to participate in the counterinsurgency, and those who have 500 volunteers can be military horses, and those who have thousands of volunteers can be captains and give the marquis of Guannei. Those who make meritorious contributions will be promoted to official and knighted. ”

The ministers were very shocked, and Sikong Liu Hong advised: "Your Majesty, with this decree, the wealthy families in various places are bound to support their own troops, and they may become a hidden worry of the Han Dynasty in the future." ”

The Son of Heaven sneered: "Does the imperial court have the money to provide disaster relief now?" Is there an army to counterinsurgency? Is there a military recruitment? From the disaster-stricken counties to the prime ministers of the country, to the rich people of the world, how many of them do not eat the flesh of my Han Kingdom and drink the blood of my Han Kingdom? Since you have eaten meat and drunk blood, you have to pay the price. They either hacked and burned the mob or let the mob hack and burn to death, and there was no other way out. ”

"Deliver the decree immediately."
