People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 111 Faint Lord, Traitor

At least half an hour later, Li Yao's personal soldiers left the camp.

But after Li Yao's personal soldiers came back, all of them were full of anger. They scrambled to say:
"Young Master, although there is no problem with the quantity of gold and silver, there is a big difference in color and quality. There are 20 shi of grain, corn, wheat, beans, and rice, but they are all stale and have a musty smell..."

When Li Yao heard this, he was actually not too surprised. I am afraid that the court will not easily bring out really good things.

Li Yao didn't care much about gold, silver and silk, but Li Yao really cared about 20 shi of grain.

Although they are all old, they can still satisfy their hunger. If you don't consider real food, you only consider barely surviving, and can feed tens of thousands of people.

Then Li Yao turned his head and shouted:
"Bring Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang over here!"

Hearing Li Yao speak, the two of them were brought here soon.

Li Yao did not insult them, but said seriously:

"You two, since the imperial court has prepared enough ransom, you can go back. I will only give you half an hour. If you can't complete the evacuation, you will directly launch a strong attack!"

Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang, with complicated expressions on their faces, didn't pay much attention to Li Yao. They just turned around and walked towards the camp. The more nervous they felt at this time, the two of them lost their teacher, were captured, and cheated the city... What a shame for a big man.

Fortunately, they did not surrender, so they saved the last bit of face, otherwise the road back would be the road to death.

The next thing went more smoothly than expected. After Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang returned, the so-called tens of thousands of troops began to withdraw quickly.

Li Yao didn't interfere, they didn't come here to fight a war, the main purpose was to transport gold, silver, silk, satin, food...safely back.

In less than half an hour, Li Yao sent people to the camp. At first, he only sent a hundred riders. He didn't go to the camp until they turned back and confirmed that the camp was really safe.

After reconfirming that there was no problem with the ransom, Li Yao sent someone to notify Bei Gongli to continue to monitor the Han army and take charge of the matter.

As for himself, he led people to carry the ransom, and used war horses to carry gold, silver, silk, and grain... Using war horses instead of rough horses to carry the ransom was a luxury. Fortunately, the distance was not very far, and it was just a stopgap measure.

They have a lot of horses, more than 1 war horses, more than 3000 war horses are used for riding, and more than 7000 war horses are used for carrying.

Li Yao felt sorry for the war horse and insisted on only walking for half a day every day to ensure that the war horse would not be damaged too much.

Li Yao was in charge of transportation, and Bei Gongli was in charge of guarding. Originally, he ran with all his might, but he could go back in half a day. In the end, he walked for three days, but fortunately, there were no accidents.

Outside Chang'an City, the rebel camp!
Seeing Li Yao, Bei Gongli came back safely with the ransom, those chiefs and leaders couldn't sit still at this moment, and immediately started booing and snatching.

While cursing the things given by the court, they were all defective products, but on the other hand, their hands never stopped.

They failed to break through Chang'an, now that they have these things, they can calm their restless hearts.

In the end, the situation got a little out of control. It was Li Wenhou who directly shouted back the crowd, and then divided the gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin in front of everyone...

As for the food, it wasn't too greedy, so Li Yao took it away under the pretext of using it as military rations, but as long as it passed through his hands, a layer of oil would be scraped off no matter what.

Here Li Yao and Bei Gongli returned to the camp with the ransom, while Cui Lie brought Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang back to Luoyang.

When Liu Hong saw Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang, his expression was very ugly. This time he lost both face and money. Even the rebels did not stop them, and they are still besieging Chang'an.

However, the two of them were captured after fighting hard, putting the big man on the final fig leaf, and all the officials wrote to plead for mercy, so Liu Hong did not give him a severe punishment.

Relegated to common people and sent back to his hometown!
Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang will not be able to continue to be officials in the future, but they have extraordinary family backgrounds, and even if they cannot be officials, they can live a worry-free life.

As for Cui Lie, because he was sent to the rebel army several times, he was neither humble nor overbearing, and fought hard according to reason, saved a large amount of ransom for the court, and brought Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang back intact.

And because of his credit, Liu Hong gave him a 1000% discount on the money to buy an official. Originally, it was 500 million yuan, but now it only costs [-] million yuan.

After Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang were brought back, Zhang Jiao's head and Hebei's victory report were also sent back, almost from the front and back.

Liu Hong was very happy, and quickly spread the good news throughout the capital, and hung Zhang Jiao's head on the city gate, both to show off his military exploits and to deter evildoers.

Seeing Zhang Jiao's head, hearing the good news from Hebei, the capital's people's hearts gradually stabilized, and all the officials celebrated with a banquet... The big man is still the same big man, and he is still invincible!

Then the wind changed, and the original panic completely disappeared. Thinking that there were still rebels raging in the Guanzhong area, all the officials in the court wrote letters asking for a fight.

Of course, they didn't come to fight for themselves, but they wrote to ask Liu Hong to transfer Huangfusong to Guanzhong, command the elite main force of the Han Dynasty, and completely wipe out the rebels in Liangzhou.

Calling Huangfusong a famous general in ancient times, all kinds of boasting about his military achievements and admiring his abilities...

It's like as long as Huangfusong arrives in Guanzhong, the rebel army will be wiped out, and the world will be peaceful.

Even Liu Hong was very moved. If the rebels in Liangzhou can be wiped out, it will better reflect the majesty of the court than paying for peace.

But it's like, if there are bear children, there will be bear parents, and if there is a foolish king, there will be treacherous ministers.

Zhao Zhong has no other abilities, but his bad ideas came one after another. At this time, he was neither yin nor yang, and he said in a strange way:

"Your Majesty, since Huangfu Song sent troops to Hebei from Yingchuan, he single-handedly wiped out hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits, and even brought back Zhang Jiao's head. This achievement is incomparable..."

"Now that the soldiers are returning to their hearts and all the officials are attached to them, if this Huangfu Song wants to go further, what should His Majesty do?"

Hearing this, Liu Hong directly reprimanded:

"Shut up, is this what you should say!"

Zhao Zhong quickly knelt down and begged for mercy:

"This old slave is punished with death, but this old slave is also considering His Majesty, this Huangfusong has no choice but to guard against it!"

Liu Hong didn't continue to speak, but his face was cloudy and cloudy, obviously his heart was not calm.

This Huangfusong, that credit is incomparable, but who is the sky?The sky is his Liu Hong!

Now Huangfu Song has reached him...

If this Huangfusong wanted to go one step further, the soldiers returned to their hearts, all the officials were attached to him, and his meritorious service was overwhelming, Liu Hong already felt chills down his back when he thought of this.
