The person who came was Huangfu Song, the general from the left. After experiencing the war during the day and the executions at night, he had already calmed down and did not want to pay much attention to the affairs of the army... But Gongsun Xun invited him to come late at night, and he could not refuse.

"To be honest, Mr. Huangfu, the war has been decided, and I will leave tomorrow." Late at night, the two of them sat down casually in a private tent, and Gongsun Xun got straight to the point. "A memorandum of merit had been sent before the war, and Wang Xibo had just been asked to do so.

I wrote a new letter and sent it to Luoyang overnight... Before leaving, I wanted to entrust some things to Duke Huangfu."

Huangfu Song's expression remained unchanged, and he realized almost instantly: "But you want to hand over the prisoners to me? Don't worry, General Wei, since the punishment has been carried out, the prisoners will be properly placed in my place."

Gongsun Xun nodded, this was the reason why he chose Huangfu Song. Since he had been punished, there was no need to kill again, and the attitude Huangfu Song had shown before was actually the best at this time.

Correspondingly, Huangfu Song also understood this truth, so he didn't take it seriously.

However, after Gongsun Xun nodded, he added: "In a few days, there will definitely be a decree coming to Luozhong. Before that, not only the prisoners, but also the three rivers and five schools of our Northern Army, and even the camp, logistics, staff... in short

, all things here should be left under the control of General Zuo for the time being."

Huangfusong was really at a loss this time. He did not agree directly, but pondered for a long time before he asked seriously: "For nothing else, Wenqi returned to Luoyang this time, and she returned without the Northern Army and the Scepter?

The Northern Army is originally a forbidden army. At worst, the Sanhe Knights will be disbanded on the spot at Hangu Pass, and only the five schools of the Northern Army will be returned to Luo. Or maybe there are changes in Luo, and in order to prevent people from being uneasy, the general has made a special statement so that you don't have to bring them with you.

Soldiers go back?"

Gongsun Xun was silent for a moment, but he still told the truth: "I will leave tomorrow, and I have nothing to hide...Actually, when I said I was leaving, I was not going back to Luo under the order of the general, but to go back to Youzhou."

Even though Huangfu Song had experienced many turmoils, he couldn't help but wonder: "What happened to Youzhou?"

"There has been a change in Youzhou. Both Wuhuan and Xianbei have rebelled, even cutting off the outside of the Great Wall!" Gongsun Xun said sincerely. "Huangfu Gong, the village of Youzhou has been harassed by rebels. This is a lesson learned from Liangzhou's past, and I have to take care of it. Besides,

, I have defeated the enemy today, and I, Gongsun Xun, have lived up to the trust of the central government and the general, let alone the people of Guanzhong... Then tomorrow, I will naturally return home to defend my hometown."

Huangfu Song sighed for a moment, but remained silent for a long time.

After Gongsun Xun said this, he didn't force him too much, he just waited quietly for the other party to speak.

I don't know how long it took before Huangfu Yizhen asked with some difficulty: "When did this happen?"

"They rebelled during the New Year. After the Chinese New Year, Gai Yuangu received a messenger in Chang'an and came over in a hurry. It was on the third day of the first lunar month that I got the message." Gongsun Xun said slowly. "I asked him to block Tongguan.

Then he raised his army to fight."

Huangfu Song suddenly remembered the situation when Gongsun Xun stuffed the letter directly into his boots after receiving the letter that day. On the one hand, he admired the other party's calmness and decisiveness, but on the other hand, he was also convinced:

"I only have one question...why not let the former general control it on your behalf?"

"Because the former general couldn't restrain his desire for fame. He only stationed here before, so he had communication with General Hussar and the Yuan family. What's more, now that the war has been decided? I'm afraid that Luoyang's chaos will inevitably require his appearance."

Gongsun Xun under the candlelight couldn't help but sneer. "Actually, I have no prejudice against the former general. I don't care what he wants. And I don't care much about what happens to Luozhong. But before I leave, I have absolutely nothing to do with it."

I cannot personally give authority to these people. Otherwise, if they cause trouble in the future, wouldn’t I be accused of being an accomplice?”

Huangfu Song hesitated to speak... In fact, at the level of Huangfu Yizhen, how could he not see that there was going to be trouble in Luoyang? How could he not know that the world was in chaos? How could he not know that Dong Zhuo was rough and tyrannical? Therefore, Gongsun Xun gave

The reasons really leave people speechless.

And it’s not just Dong Zhuo. By the same token, if these captured soldiers and horses are handed over to Gai Xun, who is completely loyal to that emperor, who knows if Gai Xun will do what Zhang Huan did when he returns to Luoyang? And if he is handed over to a party member

Liu Biao and Bao Xin, who are the backbones, who knows, will they also lose control?

At this time, Huangfu Song is actually the most appropriate person.

"As long as Luozhong orders." After a long pause, Huangfu Song agreed. "If Luozhong is assigned, I will definitely hand over the troops and horses..."

"Then it's none of my business." Gongsun Xun spread his hands and said with a smile. "Anyway, Duke Huangfu is probably just like me and doesn't want to get involved in this troubled water... I will bring the whole army to you, just as you do what you want."

Huangfu Song shook his head for a moment, and then left directly, waiting for Gongsun Xun to hand over in person tomorrow.

However, when the Zuo general returned to his station and hurriedly summoned his nephew Huangfu Li to explain and ask him to prepare for the handover of military power tomorrow, Huangfu Li remained silent for a long time.

"What does this mean?" The elderly Huangfu Song had a severe headache and could only helplessly ask while holding his forehead.

"Uncle." Huangfu Li thought over and over again and said through gritted teeth. "The former general refused to obey you before, even to General Wei. Before today's battle, he was quite unhappy. General Wei will preside over the handover tomorrow.

The situation must be worry-free. But as soon as General Wei leaves, the former general will inevitably cause chaos, and he may immediately retake his old troops! His old troops are all his confidants who have been with him for many years and have been favored by him for many years, how can they be controlled? "

Huangfusong immediately shook his head: "I am only in charge of the troops. I will act according to Luozhong's orders as soon as they arrive. Take back his old troops and take them back...could it be possible to rebel in a few days?"

"What if after Luozhong's decree comes, he will still go his own way?" Huangfu Li kept asking.

"Then don't worry about him." Huangfu Song shook his head again. "Dong Zhongying is not as stupid as you think. If he resists the decree, either the general or Yuan Wei will make an appointment with him, just like Gongsun Xun was killed at Hangu Pass before.

Zhao Yan generally relies on himself... Why should we get involved in this kind of thing?"

Huangfu Li still had something to say: "Uncle, even if we don't want to do something in Luozhong like Dong Zhongying, we should learn from General Wei to protect ourselves wisely, right?"

"You kid...what do you mean?" Huangfu Song finally sighed helplessly.

"Gongsun Wenqi returned to Youzhou today...is he really just thinking about his hometown?" Huangfu Li gritted his teeth and asked. "Youzhou didn't rebel long ago, and it won't rebel later, so why is it rebelling today?"

"Of course it was because General Wei left that place that Xianbei and Wuhuan became disloyal." Huangfu Song immediately refuted it. "The imperial court already knew about this matter, but General Wei took the initiative to isolate the news in order to prevent the morale of the army from wavering.

...Don’t talk nonsense!”

"The bento is so good." Huangfu Li still had his own thoughts. "But in my opinion, even if there is chaos in Youzhou, it may not be as terrible as Liangzhou. People are so anxious to return home that they might get involved.

There is still the intention to sit back and watch the success or failure! When the situation in Luozhong collapses, he will definitely lead the people of Youyan south to Luozhong to establish the situation! Maybe he will replace him with a general and monopolize the power!"

"So what?" Huangfu Song sneered for a moment. "Do you think your lord, I, didn't think of this?"

Huangfu Li was immediately stunned.

"Boy," Huangfu Song, whose eyes were red from staying up late, said slowly, staring at his nephew. "Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? You just want me to take this opportunity to control Dong Zhuo and monopolize this place.

With an army of 50,000, if we advance in, we can do things for Luozhong, and if we retreat, we can protect Guanzhong and Pingliang Prefecture, and have peace for a while...right?"

"Yes!" Huangfu Li managed to respond.

"Then do you know that a few years ago, Yan Shude, who was still my staff, advised me to go south to claim control?" Huangfu Song sneered more and more. "He said at that time that Liangzhou had reached a situation where it was necessary to rebel. If I could raise

If the soldiers unite with the Liangzhou rebels, the Huangfu family can also do it on behalf of the Liu family... Wouldn't this be three points better than your idea today?"

Huangfu Li became more and more at a loss.

"But let me ask you." Huangfu Song continued to question his nephew with a mocking look on his face. "If I had really believed him back then, would your body have been buried in the Wei River today?"

Huangfu Li was embarrassed and knelt down to apologize.

"You!" Huangfu Song couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. "I won't say more about why Yan Shude committed suicide. You won't understand even if you tell me. Let's discuss the matter and only tell you your idea... According to you, the general wanted to

The eunuchs wanted to do things for Luo Zhong, the party members wanted to do things for Luo Zhong, and then Dong Zhongying also wanted to do it, and Gongsun Xun also wanted to do it! And just now Gongsun Xun revealed to me, implying that the Yuan family also harbored evil intentions... In this case,

There are so many people, but only one person can win in the end. Why is this person our Huangfu family? What do our Huangfu family have? So what if we have 50,000 soldiers and horses? Believe it or not, Gai Xun was the first to take away 5,000 people to defend.

Chang'an City? Then an imperial edict from Beigong was able to disperse 20,000 people. With the general's order and a few letters from Yuan, another 20,000 people were able to escape? The last guard general led Youyan's men south, and you didn't even have troops.

Resistance!"

Huangfu Li bowed his head in embarrassment.

"There is no need to say more about this matter." Huangfu Song simply threw up his sleeves and said in the end. "There is only one thing that I regret today...that is, Dong Zhongying, Gongsun Wenqi, Yuan Benchu, and even the generals, in the end, only

It's a pity that one person can die a good death, but an old man like me can go down in history as a famous general..."

Huangfu Li walked away quietly.

"That's it."

The next morning, in the military tent, Gongsun Xun took his eyes away from the stunned Xi Zhong, and once again glanced at the generals with different expressions below, but he said directly: "The 50,000 troops here have all the power and responsibility for me.

We are all prepared to entrust them to General Zuo. You must obey orders and wait patiently for the reward from Luoyang..."

At the end of his words, Gongsun Xun glanced at Dong Zhuo beside him.

Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo stood still and didn't show any sign... Obviously, the former general knew very well that after yesterday's victory, Gongsun Xun had his own prestige, so if he jumped out now, he would probably hit a wall.

On the other hand, when Gongsun Xun leaves, everything can be done, but there is no need to worry so much.

In fact, not only Dong Zhuo, but also all the generals in the army were speechless. Even Liu Biao and Gai Xun had nothing to say... Gongsun Xun's refusal to give them military power was not only a precaution, but more importantly, from the perspective of rank,

They are not qualified to take over this army.

"That's it." After looking around for a week, Gongsun Xun no longer hesitated, but immediately stood up and gave instructions. "Yi Gong invited three hundred righteous followers to accompany me. Without any unnecessary preparations, he returned home immediately. And Zitai (zi Tian Chou) led

The rest of the righteous followers will also take care of the wounded, and they will be settled in the rear, recover from their injuries, pack up the remains of the righteous followers, and return to Youzhou soon."

Han Dang and Tian Chou had received the message last night and were prepared, so they took the order immediately.

After Gongsun Xun finished speaking, he simply lifted his legs and walked away, actually planning to set off immediately... The generals, officers, and officials on both sides did not dare to neglect, and stood up to salute each other.

Even Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song rarely stood up and bowed their hands in salute at this time.

"Your Majesty!" Before Gongsun Xun left the camp, Xu Rong was the first to lose his patience. "Since Wuhuan rebelled, please allow me to return home with your Majesty..."

Next to him, Lu Bu was about to speak but hesitated.

"The Wuhuan rebellion is bound to succeed immediately, so why should Bojin accompany him?" Gongsun Xun stopped and didn't care. "Besides, I made an oath in Mengjin in the past that sooner or later I would return to the center to do something big. How can a man's life oath be true?

Is this a lie? I will return immediately after I conquer Liaoxi."

Xu Rong, Lu Bu and others all breathed a sigh of relief.

Gongsun Xun nodded slowly and moved forward again, but when he came to the door of the camp, he couldn't help but stop at someone: "We have just met, and the road ahead is long. Don't Wen He have anything to say to me?"

"Who can know the outcome of what will happen in the future?" Jia Xu worked harder and bowed. "I would like to give you a try..."

"you say."
