Chapter 114: The Master Condition(1/2)
Chapter 114: Conditions of the Lord
Peng Tuo's death in battle made the Yellow Turban army suddenly lose its backbone.
A smart general found that the situation was not good, and immediately called his troops to evacuate from the battlefield. Thinking of this alone quickly affected other people. Everyone had no intention of fighting anymore and fled around.
Nearly 100,000 troops collapsed like this!
Dong Zhuo's army was motivated, and they all had red eyes and rushed to kill them.
There was already a white light in the sky. The fire was still soaring into the sky under the city of Wan County, and the Yellow Turban Army was chased by Dong Zhuo's army. Some soldiers wanted to retreat to Wan County, but were blocked outside the city gate by Hua Xiong and others.
In fact, in this situation, anyone can see that Wan County can no longer be defended.
The defeated army fled and ran out a few miles, and two troops emerged from left and right. The Qin and Hu soldiers were all led by Han Meng on one side and Cheng Li on the other side. They took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing and killed the defeated soldiers and then stopped them.
Continue to defeat, and see the clean water from afar.
The defeated army breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that as long as the water passes, they will be safe.
It was already dawn, and in the sun, there was a sudden sound of a chung. The sharp arrows in the sky passed by like locusts, covering the sky and making the sun and the moon bleak.
Countless defeated troops were shot to the ground on the spot, followed by a group of people appearing from the reed marsh.
The two generals in the head, one is Chen Dao and the other is Dong Tie. The two commanded the trolls to block the banks of the Qingshui River. The big shield and the long sword flashed in the sunlight with a trembling light. The one who was full of murderous intent was a chill, which made people feel heartbroken.
"surrender!"
Chen Dao shouted loudly immediately, and the thousand trolls shouted at the same time: "Surrender, surrender!"
Most of the defeated soldiers did not rest overnight. Seeing this situation, there was still the mood to continue to fight? Tens of thousands of defeated soldiers knelt on the ground, threw away their weapons and shouted loudly: "God of your life, General, I will surrender, I am willing to surrender!"
*******
It was already dawn and a war stopped.
Outside Wan County, simple prisoner camps were temporarily set up. Two thousand trolls were in charge of the supervision. Chen Dao, Pei Yuanshao and Dong Zhao were the leaders of the prisoner camp at the same time, closely monitoring the every move of the prisoners.
Although the war has ended, it does not mean that we can relax.
Dong Zhuo could not consider these things when repairing Wan County and joining the people. After all, he was just a general of the Central Army, not the prefect of Nanyang. But how to deal with the prisoners? How to distribute the spoils? Dong Zhuo had to worry about these things.
After one battle, there were 40,000 to 50,000 prisoners.
According to Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's ideas, these prisoners should be beheaded and dyed the purified water red with their blood.
But Dong Chu disagreed with doing this!
Although things like killing prisoners of war and implicating the Nine Clans happen from time to time in this era, it does not mean that Dong Chu would accept such things.
He took Dong Tie and Cheng Li to the city of Wan County, but his thoughts were in his mind when he was fighting bloody in Wan County. What's going on with his elder brother and others now? He said he had withdrawn from Wan County, but Dong Qi walked around in Nanyang but found no sign of them.
On the banks of the Qingshui River that day, Guo Jia found the Yellow Turban Army staring at him and immediately became wary.
In fact, Wan County does not need to go too hard. It only takes Dong Zhuo's army to arrive, and it is only about the time when the city is destroyed. However, the thieves scattered in Nanyang must not be ignored. If they cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, once the enemy in Wan County is annihilated, the thieves will immediately become bandits. It is even more troublesome to clean up at that time. Dong Qi and Guo Jia are both afraid of trouble.
Coupled with the mysterious Yellow Turban Army peeking around, Guo Jia had the idea of finding an opportunity to annihilate it.
He moved to Nanyang, and in a few days he broke eleven towns and captured 20,000 to 30,000 rebels. However, the mysterious Yellow Turban Army was not seen yet, which made Guo Jia feel a little worried. At the same time, Dong Qi's hope of finding the traces of Dian Wei and others was dashed, and gradually he lost the desire to continue to fight. He turned back to Wan County at night, but happened to meet Dong Zhuo in ambush.
Thinking of Guo Jia, Dong Qi couldn't help feeling sad.
His fist gently hit the battlement and sighed inwardly. Guo Jia's words when he left echoed in his ears.
It was noon yesterday, and Guo Jia decided to part with Dong Qi.
To be honest, Dong Qi really wants Guo Jia to stay and help him. Although he has not been together for a long time, if Guo Jia is there, Dong Qi will feel very peaceful.
He kept sending Guo Jia to the foot of Jingshan Mountain in Xi'e, but Guo Jia suddenly stopped.
"Young brother, please don't give it to me again!"
Dong Qi hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Senior Brother, why can't you stay?"
A strange smile appeared on Guo Jia's very delicate face, "You still asked this sentence... Haha, I thought you wouldn't ask. Junior brother, what do you think about the general trend of the world? I mean, the form after this chaos."
Another very annoying problem!
Dong Qi looked at Guo Jia with a headache, not knowing what to say.
I could feel that Guo Jia was asking him sincerely, or was taking the exam. Answer or not?
Dong Qi naturally knew that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was just a fuse.
After hesitating for a moment, he made up his mind and said, "The chaos... will be very chaotic."
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, the junior brother has a good vision, he is worthy of being the one who is attracted by the teacher. In fact, this is not a secret. Anyone with a little vision can see the mystery here. This chaos is just the beginning, and there may be a short-term peace in the future, but once the emperor... the whole world will inevitably be in chaos."
Dong Qi was stunned and looked at Guo Jia in shock.
According to the records in the storytelling, the Three Kingdoms Rebellion officially began after Emperor Ling’s death.
He looked carefully at both sides, only Cheng Li and Dong Tie followed behind, and hundreds of trolls were about dozens of steps away as alert.
Guo Jia looked at the sky, "In fact, since Emperor Gaozu, my Han Dynasty has always been accompanied by several major problems. Empress Dowager, eunuch temple, and foreign relatives... Emperor Huan started, eunuch temple was dedicated to the superiors and common people discussed horizontally. Officials who love money, and those who want names depended on the powerful. Officials in the court came from private doors and clear-cut celebrities, but they were defined in the alleys. As a result, households objected to each other, people were different in their opinions; impermanence was unpredictable; no price was set; long-term love and evil, and the party prospered... How can we not be confused if this continues?"
Dong Qi seemed to understand but he could roughly understand what Guo Jia meant.
The Queen Mother, relatives, eunuchs, aristocratic clans, clans...
At first glance, there are really many problems with the Han Empire, a lot of them.
Guo Jia said: "My younger brother, how do you want to choose in this troubled times that are about to come? I want to seek the great way to make the world govern. My younger brother, you are brave and upright, and I love it very much. But you are still white, even if you become an official in the future... Please forgive me for saying an disrespectful word: If you are here, you will never have a chance to stand out."
Dong Qi's face suddenly became ugly, and he stared at Guo Jia, a little unhappy.
Guo Jia smiled and said, "My junior brother, let me explain it clearly. I depend on you, what can you give me? Is it an official position or a place to exert talents, and to govern the world? This may sound easy, but you have to meet several conditions: fame, talent, land, and the powerful soldiers and generals who gallop across the world. How many of these four conditions do you have?"
Talent, you can learn...
A powerful general can go to train...
But fame and land... Dong Qi was silent. He realized that Guo Jia had nothing wrong, and his father was there, and he had no chance to make a comeback.
Fame may be earned by hard work in the future. But he is marked by the descendants of the good families of six counties, and he will never be able to get rid of it in his life. Think about the Sanming, Liangzhou, who had never written books and had the title of a scholar-official doctor? But in the eyes of those real scholar-official doctors, the three of them were still martial artists. If you want fame, you must be recognized by the scholar-official doctors.
This is very difficult, very difficult!
As for the land, Dong Qi had thought about Lintao. However, it was my father's property after all, and it had nothing to do with him.
Just talking about Tang Zhou and Chen Dao, who followed him at the beginning, also attracted the position of his father?
Dong Qi looked up at Guo Jia, "Senior Brother, what should I do?"
Guo Jia shook his head, "I don't know... If I had known, I would have done it myself long ago. Junior brother, do you know why I would have helped you this time?"
Dong Qi shook his head again, "I don't know."
"Wen Ruo and Changwen are not optimistic about you. Or they are not optimistic about Lingzun... Therefore, if you are not in charge, they cannot rely on you. Even if they know that in troubled times, there are many benefits of relying on a powerful man. You and I can also be considered as the same family. Wenruo means that I will let me go with you and my family's love."
Dong Qi opened his mouth wide in surprise. He finally understood what Xun Yu said when he left.
"Aristocratic families like Wenruo and others are more complicated than me. Family, country, family is always ahead of the country. What they need to consider first is the interests of the family, and secondly the country. I am from a poor family and don't have much concern. But like what I just told you, what can you have? Junior brother, come to me if you figure it out."
Dong Qi asked softly: "Senior Brother, then you will..."
"I will travel around the world first and see what the Han family's country looks like after this chaos. Junior brother, if you have the ability to show my talents in the future and I have not found a wise master worth relying on, I will definitely go to you."
Dong Qi's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"One word is certain!"
After Guo Jia said that, he turned over and said, "My junior brother, work hard. I hope that one day your name will be circulated all over the world. At that time, I will definitely come to you from thousands of miles to the mountains. Before that, you must take care of yourself."
"Teacher brother, take care of yourself!"
Dong Qi gave a gift to Guo Jiashen and watched his thin back leave.
And this statement will undoubtedly have a huge impact on Dong Qi. Where should we go? He must make a decision.
*******
"Master, Master!"
Although Dong Tie has already quit his slavery, he still habitually calls Dong Qi the master.
After awakening from the meditation, Dong Qi realized the loss of composure just now. He laughed forcefully, "Xiao Tie, is there anything wrong?"
"Look, is that General Hua?"
Dong Qi looked in the direction of Dong Tie's finger and saw Hua Xiong leading a team of Qin Hu soldiers running out of the city gate with great momentum.
"General Wen Kai!"
Dong Qi shouted, "Where are you going?"
When Hua Xiong heard Dong Qi's voice, he held his horse and looked up, turned his head and said to the deputy general behind him, and rushed to the top of the city from the horse path.
"Young Master, why are you here? Haven't you gone to rest?"
Dong Qi smiled, "Is it possible that this is broad daylight, can I be turned around day and night? By the way, you are in a hurry, where are you going?"
"Lord has orders, let me do things!"
"work?"
