Chapter 123 Zhang Gong's Conditions

Cao Cao is a man who knows a little about his character. He is a person who can do big things and can do things. At this stage, he can use him to promote many things. Who told him to be lustful? He is so arrogant!

After the Heishan Army entered Guangzong City, Chu Yan, Wang Dang, Du Chang and others soon began to implement Huo Hai's plan to harvest grain and migrate the people.

However, the plan was as smooth as he imagined, because not everyone was willing to follow the Yellow Turban Army, and most people even did not believe in the Yellow Turban Army and hated the Yellow Turban Army. They believed that they had destroyed the peace and believed that the Han court would wipe out their rebellions and restore their rule, and they could not follow the thief.

And those who can really follow them are those people who have no food to eat and have no confidence to survive the cold winter by themselves. These people are good and obedient, because Heishanzhai is their only hope for survival.

"You are playing a big game of chess." Cao Cao looked at the crowds of people who were mobilized by Wang Dang and others on the top of the city, and turned to Huo Haidao.

"That's right, but your words are true for everyone who wants to do things. If you can guess what I will do and what to do, that's the ability." Huo Hai did not deny it, and looked at Cao Cao with a smile.

"If it weren't for the people, they would just protect themselves and hold their own troops." Cao Cao said with a somewhat contemptuous expression.

"So you are not as smart as I imagined." Huo Hai said with a hint of disappointment.

"Do you still want to be an emperor?" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and looked at Huo Haidao with an inquiring look.

If he really had the ambition of an emperor, he would have to overthrow the current court and become enemies of all the gentry.

However, Cao Cao did not think that Huo Hai had such an idea at this time was wrong, and he even hoped that Huo Hai would go on this road.

Of course, it is best to wait for the court to take a breath.

Because, in his opinion, this round of rebellion by Huo Hai, or the Yellow Turban Army, was the main reason for the situation where the court was united, and if this situation lasted longer, the court might have some help.

"In my eyes, all the emperors are monsters, and I'm too lazy to be monsters." Huo Hai said something that surprised Cao Cao.

"Monster? How can I explain this?" Cao Cao frowned and looked at Huo Hai's eyes.

"Because no one has been on the throne to bear the responsibility of the whole world. Most of them are for their own desires of rights and eventually become walking corpses dominated by their own desires. It's very sad." Huo Hai looked at the Han army camp in the distance with a sigh.

After hearing what he said, Cao Cao's brows were even more furrowing. He had never heard of such an argument in his life. Isn't it good to have power? Isn't it good to release his desires?

"Then you are respectful now, what's the matter?" Cao Cao spread his hands and asked Huo Hai.

"I am different from people in this world. If I can't change the world, my fate may be very bad. Therefore, my goal is not to be an emperor, but to change the world. Maybe you don't understand the difference between being an emperor and changing the world now. You will see it in the future." Huo Hai looked at Cao Cao's eyes sincerely and said.

Seeing his bright eyes, Cao Cao began to carefully savor Huo Hai's words, but soon he grabbed his scalp. In his opinion, only the emperor who ruled the world could truly change the world!

Huo Hai did not want to be Cao Cao's life mentor, just give him a vague thought. After all, the two sides may continue to communicate with each other in the next few years.

The days were spent day by day in the intense treatment and harvest. Some cattle, horse and carriage convoys were constantly carrying some poor people to Heishan Village. There were many jars, jars, jars, straw mats and wooden tools on the car. The people were reluctant to throw them away. The people in the Black Mountain Army Transport Convoy did not dislike them and took them all back.

As medical supplies from all over the country were continuously transported to Guangzong City, more insects in the bodies of Han soldiers were cleaned up and cured.

However, there has been no news of the imperial rewards from Huangfu Song's camp. However, Zhu Jun would come to Guangzong City every few days to urge Huo Hai to ask Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang to write to persuade the Yellow Turbans from other prefectures and counties to put down their weapons and surrender to the official army.

Their little thoughts Huo Hai, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were all clear in their hearts. They wanted to gradually take the initiative into the hands of the court, squeeze out the value of Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, and then use their heads to give the people in the world an explanation.

Seeing that it was almost the twelfth lunar month and snowflakes had already floated in the sky, Huo Hai gradually had a countermeasure in his heart. After patrolling the camp, he received a notice from his subordinates that several more Han soldiers could not hold on and died.

"Let's go! Let's hand over the heads of General Digong and General Rengong." Huo Hai sighed.

What he said was not the heads of Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, but the heads of two dead Han soldiers.

"From the future, there will be no General Zhang Bao of the Earth and General Zhang Liang of the Yellow Turban Army, only Taoist Xuanzhen and Taoist Xuancheng of the Heishan Village." Yu Ji handed the two brand new Taoist robes and two whisks with characteristics to Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang's hands respectively.

The two looked at each other and finally took over the Taoist robe and whisk handed over by Yu Ji. From now on, they will no longer be fake Taoists of Taiping Taoism, but professional practitioners, who will handle affairs in the practice world for the Heishan Village. This is the condition for Huo Hai to promise to protect the lives of the two of them and the Yellow Turban Army.

Therefore, the letters sent by Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang from Guangzong City were not to ask the Yellow Turban Army to lay down their weapons and surrender to the court, but to let the generals and leaders disband their subordinates and sneak into the Heishanzhai for Ansheng.

Two days later, a grand funeral suddenly took place in Guangzong City, which was a funeral for two headless corpses. The heads of these two corpses were handed over to Cao Cao after being decorated with Huo Hai and sent to the Han army camp.

The news was too sudden. No one in the entire Han army camp believed the news that Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao suddenly committed suicide. However, when the two heads were placed in front of them, he had to believe it.

After all, most of the Han generals present faced each other against them, but they didn't know that sometimes the visual effects were easy to deceive people. Meeting each other from afar is not a day or night in daily life. Who can see the appearance of the two bearded so carefully?

As long as Huo Hai makes him look six or seventy percent like, he can fool everyone's eyes. With Cao Cao's mouth, everyone has to believe it. Who would have thought that Cao Cao would lie for Huo Hai! Moreover, the reason he used was very legitimate. The two of them committed suicide to protect the rest of the Yellow Turban Army.

When the two fake heads were sent to Luoyang, Luoyang quickly reached an agreement on Huo Hai's reward. On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, a team of small yellow gates came to the gate of Heishan Village, whose true face was covered by the snow.

"The General of the Central Army of Pingnan, Shunping Hou, is in charge of the various valleys in Hebei. I want to ask this man, no, what should I call you?" Huo Hai subconsciously wanted to call him father-in-law when he saw the eunuch. After he said that something was wrong, he changed his mouth and asked.

"Zhang Gong, a family member."

The man arrogantly reported his name.

"Zhang Gong?"

Huo Hai turned his head and looked at Guo Tu behind him in confusion. Soon, Guo Tu whispered in his ear, "This person is also an ordinary servant, Zhang Rang's party."

"It turned out that it was Zhang Changshi who had been looking for a long time. I just didn't understand what it means to lead the valleys in Hebei." Huo Hai learned from people of this era to intervene in meeting Zhang Gong.

Hearing Huo Hai saying that he had long admired his name, Zhang Gong suddenly felt a light on his face and smiled, "The emperor means that there is no more chaos in the places north of the Yellow River. There are local officials in the pavilions of counties and counties, and you will be in charge of the deserted mountains and fields. If someone kills people and sets fires in these places, it will be your fault."

"All places north of the Yellow River? That territory is not small. I wonder how many soldiers the imperial court allowed me to recruit to maintain public order in such a large area of ​​wilderness?" Huo Hai asked again.

Zhang Gong smiled and stretched out one hand and stretched out five fingers.

"Five hundred thousand?" Huo Hai boldly guessed.

Zhang Gong shook his head and stretched out his spreading hand in front of Huo Hai.

"Is it only 50,000?" Huo Hai frowned.

Zhang Gong shook his head again, took a step forward, leaned closer to Huo Hai, and shook his palm.

Huo Hai wondered, "It won't be five thousand! My Heishan Village currently has more than 30,000 troops, so I'm afraid it's impossible to disarmament."

"So Huo Ping is so uneasy!" Zhang Gong said disappointedly.

Guo Tu, who was standing aside, saw this scene and hurriedly reminded Huo Hai in Huo Hai's ear, "Zhang Gong is asking for a bribe! How many soldiers can we keep is not the final decision of the close servants around them, these emperors."

"What I said makes sense! Hurry up, let me go to the kiln factory to bring a new burnt glass to the top." Huo Hai was speechless and gritted his teeth and ordered Guo Tu.

Afterwards, Huo Hai just asked Zhang Gong to sit down and have tea first. After his subordinates moved Yu Liuli, who was respected more than ten kilograms, Zhang Gong's eyes immediately focused on the past.

"This, this, Qibao, Qibao! Such a heavy treasure, how can these rough military men just hold it like this? Quickly, put it down quickly, no, no, no, just leave it to me!" Zhang Gong stood up from the straw mat on his knees and hugged the glass bottle in the guard's hand. After feeling the heavy feeling of getting it, his face smiled out of the folds that only the old man had.

Soon, another guard took a nanmu shelf with painted and carved flowers from outside and came in. Zhang Gong felt that the thing in his hand was perfect for putting it on this shelf, so he slowly put it on it and began to carefully examine the colors and patterns on the glass.

Zhang Gong, who has been in the palace for many years, has a high vision, but after seeing this piece of glass that can only be considered a defective product in later generations, he couldn't even blink, because in this era, he could not see such colorful colors at all, and even the palace did not compare with it.

"I heard them say that Mr. Huo, Heishanzhai, no, Huo Pingnan, you have good things in your hands. When you see him today, it is true. With this beautiful jade, Huo Pingnan, you will lead 100,000 troops to protect local public security! In front of His Majesty and those court officials, the Sa family can help you get through it." Zhang Gong looked at the front of Liuli, and then turned to Huo Haidao after touching it repeatedly.

When Huo Hai heard this, he felt very contemptuous, but he smiled slightly at Zhang Gong on his face, "Then I'll bother Mr. Zhang."

Seeing Huo Hai's attitude, Zhang Gong nodded with satisfaction and said, "But! If you want to lead so many soldiers, the Sa family has some considerations."

Huo Hai raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Gong and said, "I wonder what you think, Zhang Changshi?"

"Some court officials just don't like the people in our inner palace. These people are in power, and they have soldiers and food. We can't move them easily. Usually, we are the people in the inner palace who rely on the favor of the emperor to suppress them. If some people are making a big fuss, we cannot directly attack them. I hope you can help the Sa family teach them a lesson at that time." Zhang Gong said.

"That's it~!" Huo Hai showed a hint of dismay on his face and did not agree immediately.

He originally thought that Zhang Gong was just a waste who was jealous of money, but now it seems that it is not all. It is not easy for those who can get into the position of Changshou. He wanted to use his own hands to suppress those court officials with real power.

"You will not let your help in vain. From next year, you can recommend a filial and honest person to the court every year. The family will arrange a place for them. In addition, your remarks can be directly passed through the court and presented to the emperor. If you have any requests, we will encourage the emperor to satisfy you." Zhang Gongyu tempted to Huo Hai.
