Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Miko

"What?! Let me make peace unconditionally? Nonsense!" Guo Bang didn't listen at all. Not only that, he also suddenly ordered the soldiers to tie up all the ministers and palace officials who came with Yang Biao. "This is too rough! Why did you arrest the courtiers who came to mediate the peace talks?!" Yang Biao sternly reprimanded. "Shut up! Didn't Li Sima still take the emperor hostage? That's why he became tough. That's why I'm going to take all the ministers as hostages." Guo Bang said proudly. "Ah, what is this? Two generals are the mainstays of the government, but one threatens the emperor and takes the emperor as a hostage; the other blatantly claims to take all the ministers as hostages. Damn it! Has the world become like this? "

"Are you still talking nonsense?!" Guo Si drew his sword and was about to kill Yang Biao.At this time, Zhong Lang hurriedly pressed Yang Mi's hand.Because of Yang Mi's remonstrance, Guo Si withdrew his sword, but he did not forgive the kidnapped officials.They only threw Yang Biao and Zhu Jun out of Dazhai and drove them back. "Ah... ah..." Zhu Jun is old, and today's mission has dealt a heavy blow to his spirit.He looked up at the sky several times, unable to walk, looked back at Yang Biao, and sighed: "You and I are both ministers of the country, but you can't assist the emperor, you can't save the world, what's the point of living?"

In the end, he and Yang Biao hugged each other and cried, and fell to the side of the road, almost fainting because of grief. Perhaps it was for this reason that the old man vomited blood and died soon after returning home.Yang Biao received the obituary and rushed to visit him.Zhu Jun's forehead was already broken.He hit his head against the pillar and died in anger. Seeing the situation in the world at that time, Zhu Jun was not the only one who died in anger.For more than fifty days thereafter, the armies of Li Jue and Guo Si sent troops to fight in the streets every day, day and night.

War is like work, war is like life, war is like fun.They fought without meaning, without righteousness, without tears. The dead bodies of both sides lie on the street.Look at the moat, the river is full of rancidity.Standing in the shade, the shade is also rotten.The flowers of the weeds bloom there lonely, the gadflies buzz and the horseflies fly around. Rather than saying that there is no difference between the world of horse flies and the world of chaos soldiers, it is better to say that compared with the world of chaos soldiers, the world of horse flies still has green shade, cool breeze, and bean flowers bloom.

"I really want to die, but I can't. Why should I be born as the emperor?!" Emperor Xian washed his face with tears day and night, depressed. "Your Majesty." Attendant Yang Qi whispered in the emperor's ear, "One of Li Jue's counselors is Jia Xu. From my private observation, it seems that Jia Xu still has his sincerity, and he is a scholar who knows that the emperor should be respected. Please secretly summon him for an audience." Once, Jia Xu had something to do and came to Emperor Xian's private room.Emperor Xian pushed back the others, and suddenly bowed to Jia Xu face to face, saying: "You should have pity on me, and righteousness will put an end to the chaos of the Han Dynasty."

Jia Xu was shocked, knelt on the ground, nodded and replied: "The ruthlessness at the moment is not the heart of the minister. Please wait for the opportunity." Unfortunately, at this moment, Li Jue came in, holding a long knife horizontally, carrying an iron whip, and stared at Emperor Xian's face.Emperor Xian's face was ashen, trembling with fear. "Amazing!" Fearing that something might happen, the courtiers surrounded Emperor Xian, all holding swords, forgetting about the danger. This kind of atmosphere made Li Jue frightened. "Ahahaha... What's all the fuss about? Jia Xu, are you talking about something interesting?" Li Jue smoothed things over with a smile, and walked out after a while.

There are many witches in Li Jue's camp, all of whom are reused.They kept going in and out of the tent, and whenever they encountered problems, they would pray to the altar, burn fire and subdue them, and ask God to come down to earth.Then he said "Oracle Tao", and taught the demon to Li Jue face to face. Li Jue feared, believed in it, and called the witch first before doing anything, and then obeyed the oracle. The gods that witches pray to descend to earth seem to be evil gods.Li Jue was not afraid of the way of heaven or humanity, and became more belligerent, turned against Guo Si, killed soldiers, harmed the people, and acted recklessly.

Once, Huangfu Li, Li Jue's fellow villager, visited him in the village and said, "The military chaos that is harmful and useless is almost over. You are also a general of the country, and your rank and salary are already very high, that's enough." Li Jue laughed and asked, "Why did you come?" Huangfu Li smiled, and replied: "The general seems to be a little dependent on the gods. I want to drive away the evil spirits possessed by the general, so I come here." He was eloquent, tongue-wagging, and eloquent, counting Li Jue's crimes of harming the people and imprisoning the emperor because of personal discord, and said that if he didn't want to repent now, he would eventually be punished by heaven.

Li Jue suddenly drew his sword, pressed it against his face, and scolded: "Go back! If you open your mouth again, I will make you swallow the sword!" Then he continued: "Could it be that you came to persuade me to make peace with the emperor's secret decree. Reconciliation may be beneficial to the emperor, but it is not suitable for me!...I hand over this spy to you, does anyone want to practice beheading?" So Qi Duwei Yang Fengdao: "Leave it to me. Although it is a secret mission, if the news of the general's killing of the imperial envoy gets out, the princes of the world will probably go to the enemy Guo Bang, and the general will lose the sympathy of the world. .”

"Do as you please!" "That's good." Yang Feng took Huangfu Li outside and let him go. Huangfu Li was completely entrusted by Emperor Xian to persuade him to make peace, but ended in failure, so he went directly to Xiliang after being released. However, he spread the word along the way: "Li Jue is so rebellious, he looks like a human being but not a human being, and he is about to kill the king. Such a beast that violates the laws of nature will not die well!" Jia Xu, who approached Xiandi quietly, also quietly spread among the soldiers, saying something that confirmed the bad evaluation from the outside, and weakened Li Jue's troops from the inside.

"Jia Xu, the counselor, said so, there is no hope." The number of soldiers who deserted, defected to other countries, and fled back to their hometowns increased day by day. Jia Xu instructed these soldiers: "Your loyal emperor has already known. Wait for the opportunity. The ultimatum will come down soon." Every day at dawn, Li Jue's soldiers will be reduced one by one, which is very obvious. Jia Xu snickered.Then he approached Emperor Xian again to offer advice, and said: "Your Majesty, please be patient, and now promote Li Jue's official position to Da Sima, and bestow grace." Li Jue was bored.Every day at dawn, the number of soldiers in the battalion will decrease. "What's the reason?" He couldn't figure it out. Unexpectedly, the emperor gave grace instead.Overwhelmed with complacency, he summoned the witches as usual, and said, "Today I was given the post of Grand Sima. Just as you predicted, there have been auspicious things recently. The prayers have obviously come true. I want to share the grace with you." He gave great praise to each witch, and encouraged the evil priests more and more. On the contrary, the soldiers did not share any grace. Instead, they were reprimanded because of the large number of deserters recently. "Hello, Yang Feng." "Oh, Song Guo. Where are you going?" "Where...I want to talk to you quietly." "What's the matter? There's no one here. It's not like you. You're depressed." "I, Song Guo, are not the only ones who are unhappy. My subordinates and the soldiers in the camp are all listless. It is all caused by our general not knowing how to love soldiers and generals. Bad things are blamed on the soldiers, and good things are blamed on the soldiers. Miko works." "Oh, um... Under such a general, the soldiers are also very pitiful. I often escape from death, eat grass and lie on rocks, and fight with my life in the Shura field, but... I am not as good as those witches." "Yang Feng, you and I are both officers leading troops, don't you feel sorry for your subordinates?!" "But what can I do?!" "So, actually, I want to tell you..." My colleague Song Guo whispered in Yang Feng's ear, expressing his determination. He said there was going to be a rebellion.Yang Feng also had no objection.The two decided to help the emperor. At the second watch that night, Song Guo raised fire as a banner in the Chinese army.Yang Feng laid an ambush outside. But when the time came, no fire was raised.He sent out a sentry post to inquire, and replied: "The matter was revealed. Song Guo was arrested by Li Jue and has already taken his head." "It's broken!" In the midst of the panic, Li Jue's crusade team had already reached Yang Feng's camp.Everything changed, Yang Feng was at a loss, resisted until the fourth watch, but was defeated, and finally left before dawn, without knowing where he was going. Although Li Jue played triumphantly, it made people feel funny.In effect, he lost a great deal of his power.As the days passed, his strength weakened noticeably. On the other hand, Guo Bang's army gradually became tired.At this time, a man named Zhang Ji from Shaanxi Province came to the arbitration with a large army to force a peace. "Now let's work together to reorganize the political affairs." If you say no, you risk being defeated by the newcomer Zhang Ji's army, so they reconcile. The officials who were taken as hostages were released, and Emperor Xian raised his eyebrows.Emperor Xian rewarded Zhang Ji for his achievements and appointed him General Hussars. "Chang'an has become an abandoned capital. How about moving the capital to Hongnong (now north of Lingbao City, Henan)?" Emperor Xian was also quite tempted by Zhang Ji's suggestion. Emperor Xian longed for the old capital of Luoyang.In spring, summer, autumn and winter, Luoyang has an unforgettable charm. Hongnong is close to the old capital. The will was quickly settled. It was mid-autumn, and the imperial chariots of Emperor Xian and the Empress were guarded by the halberds of the remnants of the imperial forest army, leaving the ruins of Chang'an behind, and wandering through the vast open mountains. The wilderness is everywhere, and there is no end to it.The beaded curtains on the royal chariot were broken, no one chanted poems, no one laughed, only a sad heart.It was raining during the journey, and Emperor Xian's clothes were covered with lice.The queen's hair has also lost its luster, and the rouge pollen that hides the tears and emaciation has also run out. "Where is this place?" Emperor Xian asked behind the bead curtain.The wind was blowing directly on him.At dusk a stream of white water meanders across the field. "It's by the Baling Bridge." Li Jue replied. The imperial chariot soon came to the bridge.At this time, a group of soldiers and horses blocked the way, and asked, "Who is in the car?" The waiter Yang Qi walked forward and scolded: "This is the imperial chariot of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, fortunately Hongnong. You are so disrespectful!" The two generals were stunned when they saw this, fearing its majesty, they got off their horses and said, "I was sent by Guo Si to guard this bridge in case of accidents. If you see the real emperor, please pass. Please see me." Yang Qi lifted up the bead curtain on the imperial chariot to let him see it.Looking up at the figure of the emperor, the soldiers guarding the bridge will shout long live with ecstasy. After the imperial chariot passed, Guo Bang arrived, called two generals, and angrily said: "What are you doing here?! Why did you let the imperial chariot go?!" "However, we were ordered to guard the bridge, and no one ordered us to snatch the emperor's jade body." "Nonsense! I listened to Zhang Jizhi's words and withdrew the troops for a while to deceive him. I didn't make peace with Li Jue from the bottom of my heart. You are my undercover, don't you understand this?!" He tied up the second general on the spot, and showed his head to the public.Then he roared in a rough voice: "Go after the emperor!" After speaking, he led his troops to rush. The next day, when the imperial chariot passed by Huayin County, there was a sudden shout from behind, getting closer and closer. Looking back, Guo Bang's soldiers and horses came galloping, and the yellow dust was flying.Emperor Xian yelled "Ah", the empress was so frightened that she trembled all over, lying on Emperor Xian's lap, sobbing loudly. The number of imperial guards guarding the front and back was very small, and Li Jue had lost the prestige he had when he was in Chang'an. "It's Guo Si. What should I do?" "Ah! I have chased here!" The palace people fled indiscriminately, hiding behind the chariot, trembling blindly.At this moment, suddenly behind the sparse forest and hills on the opposite side, drums were beating rumblingly, and a group of people rushed out. Accident!Accident! No matter for the people guarding the emperor or Guo Si who was chasing the imperial chariot, the appearance of these soldiers and horses was all unexpected. Try it: It has more than a thousand riders.The galloping army horses were overwhelming, and a large flag was flying in the sky, with the inscription "Big Han Yang Feng". "Ah, is it Yang Feng?" Looking at the banner, everyone was dumbfounded.Who doesn't know Yang Feng who betrayed Li Jue and escaped from Chang'an!Later, he lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, and when he learned that the Son of Heaven was passing by, he quickly led a thousand of his men and came galloping like a shower of rain, sweeping across the mountains and plains.
