Rebirth of the Southern Barbarian Meng Huo

Chapter 43: Famous in both the government and the public

In the end, Yan Zhong and Guo Dian chose the transaction method, while Liang Yan and Huangfu Li chose the obedient method.In this way, Meng Huo gave each of the four men 2000 taels of silver and allowed each of them to expand his army by [-] taels.Among them, Yan Zhong and Guo Dian were the Cavalry Commander and Che Commandery, Liang Yan was the Army Sima, and Huangfu Li was the Cavalry Commander.No one had objections to Meng Huo's arrangement. Everyone could see that Liang Yan and Huangfu Li were both direct descendants and relatives of Huangfu Song, and they might not sincerely surrender to Meng Huo. This choice was just playing tricks on Meng Huo, but Yan Zhong, Guo Dian was loyal enough to Huangfu Song that he refused directly, but instead was given a high position by Meng Huo.The last remaining Xia Mou was still Meng Huo's deputy general, but everyone could see that Xia Mou was Meng Huo's direct descendant and the most powerful person in the army.Meng Huo did not have to do it himself to recruit an army, but within three days tens of thousands of people came to submit.However, Meng Huo did not give up all of them. Meng Huo personally took [-] from the [-] sergeants of the four of them and gave them to Xia Mou.Moreover, the [-] people selected were all elites in the army. Although Yan Zhong, Guo Dian, Liang Yan, and Huangfu Li were dissatisfied, there was nothing they could do. After all, the money they spent to recruit troops came from Meng Huo's hands.

At the same time, Meng Huo once again promoted a deputy general, who became Meng Huo's confidant like Xia Mou.

The deputy general's surname was Pang Mingde and his courtesy name was Lingming.When Pang De came to surrender, he actually brought more than a dozen villagers with him, so he was appointed as a hundred-man general.Seeing Pound's name for the first time, and then the word Pound, Meng Huo was finally able to determine who this person was.

At the same time, Meng Huo was also glad to be familiar with the benefits of romance.There is a story in the novel: Pang Lingming carried out a desperate battle, and Guan Yunchang released water to flood the seven armies.The general content is that Pang De carried the coffin to the battlefield to show his loyalty, and his performance on the battlefield was also very brilliant. He and Guan Yunchang even fought to an evenly matched victory, and he performed superbly with a woodcutter, and even used a coffin. The arrow hit Guan Yu.Although he was still beheaded in the end, his loyalty can be learned from the world.

When Meng Huo met Pang De, Pang De was only in his early twenties. He was very tall and had a woodcutter behind his back. The most important thing was that Pang De was also a practitioner and was about to break through to the realm of true energy.

The wolf cavalry is Meng Huo's strongest and most secret strength. It is usually only trained and commanded by Xia Mou. Xia Mou is just a scholar. Although he has strategy, he lacks a bit of bravery. Pang De just makes up for this shortcoming.

So when he first met Pang De, Meng Huo asked, "I have an elite force and I want you to be my deputy general. Are you willing?"

After hearing about Beidi County's recruitment, Pang De came here because he wanted to be able to resist the invasion of the barbarians, so he asked, "Can you kill the barbarians?"

"Can kill!"

"I did it!"

It was as simple as that. Even Xia Mou felt that Meng Huo was too hasty, but no one could change Meng Huo's decision to personally take Pound to the Wolf Riding Camp. Meng Huo even personally helped Pound break through.What Pound visualized was a white horse. Pound said that he once dreamed of a white horse, and then he was able to practice.

Meng Huo suddenly understood why Pound was known as the 'White Horse General'. I'm afraid it had something to do with the object of his visualization.

When he saw the wolf cavalry army, Pang De was also shocked, and then shouted excitedly: "General! With this wolf cavalry army, I will help you defeat Wu Hu!"

Meng Huo nodded happily and left Pang De in the Wolf Riding Camp.With Xia Mou in martial arts and Pound in martial arts, Meng Huo has every reason to believe that the Wolf Cavalry Battalion will definitely become the sharpest saber in his hand in the future.

When Beidi County expanded its army, Huangfu Song, as the prefect, naturally had to report to the court. This was considered a military achievement and he naturally deserved a reward.However, except for the approval of the military officials and the imperial court, there is nothing else, and even military pay, food and grass are not allowed to be distributed.

Meng Huo was naturally dissatisfied with this. He also hoped to be promoted with military merit and enter the temple early.

As for the attitude of the imperial court, Huangfu Song was quite tolerant and persuaded Meng Huo: "As officials and generals in Huainan, we can ensure peace for the country. We are worthy of the emperor above and worthy of the people below. This is enough."

Huangfu Song was satisfied, but Meng Huo was very dissatisfied.Huangfu Song may be able to be indifferent to fame and fortune, but Meng Huo cannot.

Privately, Meng Huo's subordinates said: "The governor doesn't care about the official title. I, Meng Huainan, will use my unparalleled military exploits to make the governor rank among the three nobles!"

Because of Meng Huo's words, the entire northern army began to attack Wuhu Land like crazy.In particular, Yan Zhong and Guo Dian responded actively and invaded the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qiang, Di and Jie tribes, plundering the population and livestock.With Meng Huo's financial support and the wolf cavalry's secret support, these two men were naturally invincible and gained a lot.

Moreover, Xia Mou and Pang De dispatched one time to move the long-destroyed Qiang people to the north. Therefore, the military exploits of annihilating the Qiang people and beheading the Qiang King Beigong Boyu were also reported to the court.

In the past, the imperial court could only appease the Wuhu, and even did not hesitate to enthrone the Wuhu as kings for generations. Now that the Qiang King Beigong Boyu's section was destroyed, and Beigong Boyu was also beheaded, news spread, and the Beigong people have been suppressed. The ten regular servants of the prefecture could not suppress it anymore.

There was a lot of discussion among the government and the public, and everyone said that Huangfu Song managed the army well and had outstanding achievements, and he should be ranked among the three princes.This discussion finally reached the ears of Emperor Ling.In the winter of the seventh year of Emperor Guanghe's reign, the Shi Changshi dictatorship deceived the Holy See, but it could not completely replace the Holy Judgment.

One day in the court hall, Emperor Ling asked Zhang Rang, the Shichang attendant: "Father, I heard that Huangfu Song, the governor of the north, had made great achievements in killing Hu. Why don't you come to the court to receive the reward?"

In front of many ministers, Zhang Rang couldn't hide it anymore and said: "Your Majesty, Huangfu Song once said that he would not join the court because he was dissatisfied with Wuhu."

"Huangfu loves Qingzhen because of my love for Meng Tian. He really taught the Hu people not to dare to go south to herd horses!" Emperor Ling sighed, but at that time Qin had General Meng Tian guarding the border. The Huns heard his name and did not dare to go south to plunder. Emperor Ling used Huangfu as a guide. Song Bi Meng Tian, ​​such praise is very high.

While Emperor Ling was sighing, a person from the court came out and said: "Your Majesty, when I heard that Meng Tian was a general guarding the border, he had already paid homage to the hussar general and led an army of [-], so that he could guard the Huns. Today Huangfu Song But it’s just a prefect, with only one school captain under him, and an army of no more than ten thousand, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to suppress the Wuhu!”

All the ministers looked at this and stood up one after another and said: "Your Majesty, Huangfu Song should be canonized as a hussar general!" It was said that the leader was named Yuan Mingfeng, and he was ranked among the three princes.And that's not all, the Yuan family is an important official in the imperial court. It is said that there have been four generations of Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei. There are three princes in the fourth generation. They are very popular ministers and have always been prestigious. It is said that their sons Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are also outstanding people.He is considered a wealthy family in the court, and even the ten regular servants are afraid of him.

In fact, it was not only the Shi Changshi who feared the Yuan family, but even the Ling Emperor was in awe.

So after Yuan Feng spoke, Emperor Ling looked at Zhang Rang standing beside him and called softly: "Father."

The Ten Constant Attendants controlled the government and employed people based on nepotism and profit. If Huangfu Song was smart enough and respectful to the Ten Constant Attendants, he would be ranked among the Three Dukes, not to mention the General of Hussars.Although Zhang Rang was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, the imperial court does not permanently have hussar and chariot generals. Huangfu Song is willing to guard the north, so he might as well make him the general of Zhenbei."

Emperor Ling was overjoyed and said to his ministers: "I have made a decision. In memory of General Huangfu's meritorious service in Zhenbei, I will grant him the title of General Zhenbei and the same position as the Governor."

"Your Majesty is wise." The emperor's words were a holy decree, and all the ministers agreed.

Within five days, the imperial edict was issued, and Huangfu Song was appointed as the general of Zhenbei, and all the soldiers under him were rewarded.

Huangfu Song was the general of Zhenbei, and Meng Huo was the first general under Huangfu Song, so he was naturally promoted accordingly.However, Meng Huo was still a captain. Because promotion in the army required the number of soldiers as the basis, the court granted him the title but did not grant it. The military salary was still unavailable, and Meng Huo could still only support an army of [-].

However, Meng Huo thought that ten thousand troops were enough.

Meng Huo was still not satisfied with the fact that Huangfu Song was only granted the title of General of Zhenbei.

Only the higher Huangfu Song's status is, the higher his status will be.

"In order to pacify the Wuhu, can Lord Huangfu be ranked among the three princes?" Meng Huo asked Xia Mou after learning the news.

"My lord, what do you think?" Xia Mou looked at Meng Huo in surprise and asked.

"Lord, which one will be destroyed next? Ling Ming is willing to take the lead and fight even to the death!" Pang De said excitedly from the side.

Xia Mou was shocked and said: "My lord, there is absolutely no way you can do it. When we destroyed the Qiang people before, the great shaman of Shamanism had already taken action. If we do it again, I'm afraid that the great shaman will personally take action against you!"

He is also afraid of the great shaman Meng Huo. This is definitely an old and immortal existence. He becomes the biggest obstacle for Meng Huo to destroy the Wuhu. Otherwise, with the wolf cavalry camp, Meng Huo can even raid the Wuhu and defeat the other four tribes. All the heads of the king were chopped off, but the presence of the great shaman made it all in vain.

After pondering for a long time, Meng Huo decided to take the risk and said: "I will lure the great shaman away, and you go and destroy one of them. Xia Mou, which one do you think is easier to destroy?"

Xia Mou frowned and said: "That one is not easy to destroy! Needless to say Xianbei, they are the strongest of the Five Hus, with at least [-] soldiers, and the Huns are not bad either. The Di people rely on Xianbei and the Jie people rely on them. Even the Huns are difficult to destroy."

"You are familiar with the Huns. No matter what, you will wipe out the Jie people who rely on the Huns this time!" Meng Huo said to Xia Mou in a commanding tone.

"Yes! What's Xia Mou afraid of? There are not many Jie people! If the wolf cavalry battalion is dispatched, one of them will be destroyed!" Pang De shouted.

Xia Mou hurriedly said: "Now we have five hundred wolf cavalry in the wolf cavalry camp. Of course, the Jie people cannot stop them in a head-on confrontation. What they are afraid of is the reinforcements from the Huns. My lord, you have also seen the eagle of the Hun King Liu She." , in fact, the King of the Xiongnu was not the most powerful, but because he was conferred by the imperial court to occupy the great righteousness, there were actually several elders and commanders in the Xiongnu who were even more powerful. One of them was the famous Eagle Master, and this general was based on the image of an eagle. The target also has an Eagle King as a mount, and the prairie eagles almost obey its orders. It's okay for humans to approach the Jie people, but once the wolves approach, those eagles will definitely pass on information to them. With our strength, we will return the target. It’s not enough to fight against the Xiongnu elite.”

"You said that the prairie eagle seems like humans won't call the police, but it can't see wolves?" Meng Huo asked.

"Exactly. There are 500 people in the wolf riding camp but they still can't attract their attention. Not only the wolves but also the war horses and the prairie eagles will issue warnings." Xia Mou said.

Meng Huo nodded to show his understanding and said: "Knock out those unqualified wild wolves and send them to my mansion, and at the same time search around for some gourds for me."

"Lord, what do you want to do?" Pang De asked.

"It has its own magical effects." Meng Huo said with a smile.For the first time, he was going to use what he had learned from the Book of Heaven.
