Becoming a father in the film and television industry: starting with Xu Huanshan

Of course Luoyang would not just listen to Xu Wenhao's bragging, and immediately arranged for someone to check the specific situation.

The people in Yizhou are not an ironclad group, and such a big thing would naturally spread.

It only took two days for Luoyang to confirm the matter.

"Haha, Jianyang, this general under your command is not bad."

General He Jin was very happy.

The main reason was that this time the victory was not achieved by a few generals sent by the imperial court, but by his own people, so he also praised Ding Yuan.

"Fortunately, the Yellow Turban bandits are no match for Fengxian. You should know that our Bingzhou Wolf Riders are not just a name."

"We have guarded Yanmen Pass for many years and have always fought against foreign enemies, but we have too few soldiers and horses. Otherwise, Fengxian would not have to fight against 3000 Yellow Turban bandits with 10 cavalrymen."

Ding Yuan was naturally arrogant, and he was also a man of both civil and military talents. It was just embarrassing that he died at the hands of Lu Bu.

Later he also complained a bit, mainly because he had been in Luoyang and had no way to develop in Bingzhou. Lu Bu only had a few thousand soldiers and horses, which made him feel insecure when speaking.

Didn’t you see that Lu Zhi easily gathered nearly 10 soldiers and horses to attack? If Ding Yuan had this many soldiers and horses, he would have put down the Yellow Turban rebels long ago.

Ahem, Lu Bu and I killed a total of 10 people. You should remember to include me in the count.

"Okay, okay. But this time, General Lu Bu still deserves a reward. I want you to go to Bingzhou to be responsible for the reward and to form several new armies. Are you satisfied?"

He Jin also expressed his plans.

His feud with the Ten Eunuchs has been openly exposed over the years. He took this opportunity to expand his power, leaving them speechless and unable to say anything.

"I will follow the general's orders."

Ding Yuan had wanted to go out for a long time.

The others also secretly organized their troops, but he was the only one who kept watching the show, which made him unhappy.

But He Jin had kept Ding Yuan because he lacked trusted people. Now it was time for him to take over Bingzhou.

He Jin also helped Xu Wenhao to obtain the position of General Suppressing Bandits, also known as Flying General, which was a fifth-rank general position.

Originally, Xu Wenhao should be an eighth-rank captain now. The promotion to the fifth rank this time was given by He Jin just to make him proud.

If he had become famous this time and was from an aristocratic family, he would have been able to become a third-rank official like Cao Cao after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but Liu Bei could only be an eighth-rank county lieutenant. This is the difference.

Of course Xu Wenhao didn't know about these things, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

That little position reward was not enough for him to support hundreds of personal soldiers, and he was not short of money.

A little-known fact: it seems that half of the court's annual income in the late Han Dynasty was distributed to officials, and the remaining half was used for various purposes.

So don’t think there was anything wrong with Dong Zhuo’s plundering, it’s just that he lost.

In his early years, Dong Zhuo was a general who was able to pacify foreign enemies everywhere. He trained tens of thousands of soldiers and resolved rebellions in other places.

Back to Xu Wenhao, after he returned to Bingzhou with more than 1 able-bodied men, he also arranged for these people to take up some labor positions.

For example, jobs like cultivating the land, forging supplies, and strengthening cities.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many wealthy families fled to Luoyang, leaving behind a large amount of territory. Xu Wenhao was naturally not going to be polite. He treated those who fled as dead and directly occupied the land and began to distribute it to his subordinates.

Bingzhou will definitely become his core territory in the future, so he naturally has to manage it well.

Due to Xu Wenhao's outstanding performance, Ding Yuan came to Henei County with the emperor's reward a week later and also called Xu Wenhao.

"Fengxian."

Ding Yuan was also very happy to see Xu Wenhao and shouted from afar.

"Uncle Jianyang, congratulations on becoming the governor of Bingzhou."

Xu Wenhao rose to prominence before Ding Yuan came to Bingzhou, so naturally he had not yet worshipped Ding Yuan as his adoptive father. However, since all his power was given by Ding Yuan, he called him uncle.

"It was because of your meritorious service that I was appointed as the Governor of Bingzhou and the Cavalry Commander, stationing troops in Henei County. From now on, Bingzhou will depend on you."

Ding Yuan felt relieved when he saw that Xu Wenhao's expression was still as friendly as before.

He was afraid that Xu Wenhao would become too arrogant. You know, he was only a third-rank civil official and a fourth-rank military officer. Without Xu Wenhao's support, he would have no choice but to hide in Hanoi.

"Uncle, rest assured. Bingzhou will be safe. You can stay in Hanoi. If there is any danger, you can call on me to send troops for support at any time."

"It's a pity that Bingzhou is too big. I can't send too many troops to support my uncles."

Xu Wenhao also expressed his opinion first, and then talked about the military affairs.

"By the way, I brought His Majesty's will this time."

"You were promoted to the fifth rank general to fight against bandits, and were called the Flying General. You led the troops in Bingzhou. The court allowed you to expand the army to 30,000. As for food and money, the general knew that you had no foundation, so he asked me to bring them."

Ding Yuan also mentioned Xu Wenhao's promotion, and at the same time gave the credit for expanding the army and providing food and wages to He Jin.

"Thank you, uncle. If Bingzhou can expand its army to 3, I will have enough strength to help you pacify Yizhou and Youzhou."

Xu Wenhao also pretended to be very grateful to Ding Yuan.

"Hahaha, OK, Fengxian, then take the reward and go expand your army. The war is intense now, so I won't keep you any longer. I also plan to organize troops in Hanoi to resist the Yellow Turban bandits."

Ding Yuan was very satisfied with Xu Wenhao's attitude. He smiled and asked someone to take out the reward and the seal and hand them over to Xu Wenhao. Then he signaled Xu Wenhao that he could go back to his business.

Xu Wenhao certainly had no intention of staying here, but before leaving Henei County, he first explored the Wen County mansion in Henei County where the Sima family was located.

It's like traveling back to ancient times without doing anything. If you travel back to the Three Kingdoms and don't deal with the Sima family, your trip would be in vain.

Xu Wenhao didn't want to delay time, so he took advantage of this trip to Hanoi County and directly instructed people to check the location of the Sima family. He planned to take action after confirming the situation of the Sima family.

Sima Yi was born in 179. He is still young now, but he is a very sinister old man.

You should know that Liaodong was pacified by Sima Yi later, and then all people over the age of 15 were killed. This resulted in the Liaodong region having no power to resist foreign invaders, and gave the Hu people a place to develop.

Therefore, the subsequent Five Barbarians' Invasion of China was actually caused by Sima Yi's early decision.

That night, after Xu Wenhao roughly determined the situation of the Sima family, he quickly grabbed the Sima family's housekeeper, knocked him unconscious, and began to slaughter everyone in the Sima family.

Finally, he woke up the butler and asked him to identify them one by one.

Fortunately, the Sima family has not yet truly developed and dispersed across the country. As long as Sima Yi and a few other core figures are here, it doesn’t really matter whether the others live or die.

After all, it is a big family, and Xu Wenhao did not expect to catch them all in one fell swoop, but if the core members were dead, the harm would not be that big.

After dealing with the Sima family, Xu Wenhao did not stay and went back to Bingzhou.

In May, the capital saw that Huangfu Song was surrounded and sent Cao Cao to lead an army to rescue him.

However, before the reinforcements arrived, Huangfu Song had already come up with a plan. In the evening, a strong wind blew, and Huangfu Song ordered his soldiers to secretly leave the city with torches in their hands. They used the weeds around the Yellow Turban Army's camp and used fire to defeat the enemy. They shouted "attack", and torches were raised on the city wall in response. Huangfu Song used drums to help the battle and rushed into the enemy camp. The Yellow Turban Army was in chaos and ran around.

The Han army encountered Cao Cao's reinforcements and was attacked from three sides by Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and Cao Cao. Tens of thousands of people were killed and the Han army won a great victory.

But given the influence of Xu Wenhao's previous experience, this incident can only be said to be okay.

Since they had suffered a crushing defeat before and had Xu Wenhao's performance as an example, it could only be said to be a good victory.
