Chapter 105 Ma Mengqi was ordered in danger
After hearing Liu Hong's words, Zhang Rang slowly shook his head. The older and more experienced people in the court were indeed sent to quell the rebellion, but there were still young people in the court.
"Your Majesty, I recommend one person. I think this person will definitely be able to defeat the Yellow Turban Rebels in Wancheng!"
When Liu Hong heard this, he felt spirited, "Oh? I wonder who my father is going to recommend?" Now Wancheng has been lost, and this Yellow Turban rebel is getting closer and closer to Luoyang. Liu Hong felt that as long as he could suppress the rebellion, he would not be stingy. And as long as someone could be competent, he would definitely use it. There is no way, this is an extraordinary period.
"This person is Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi, the city gate captain!"
Although Zhang Rang knew that Ma Chao and He Jin often walked around, he still regarded Ma Chao as his own. After all, Ma Chao knew himself first and got closer to him. What's more, Ma Chao helped him, so he recommended Ma Chao instead of Cao Cao at this time. Zhang Rang hoped that he could seize the good opportunity to make contributions. As for Ma Chao's ability, Zhang Rang was really confident in him.
Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi? When he thought of Ma Chao, Liu Hongxin said that his city lieutenant had always been loyal to his duties these days. However, when Zhang Rang recommended him, Liu Hong felt that maybe Ma Mengqi could really be competent. Okay, let him go. It would be best to resist the enemy outside the capital.
"Ma Mengqi is the pillar of my great Han Dynasty, and I believe he can do it. But if he wants to lead troops to suppress the rebellion, I am afraid that others will not accept it." Liu Hong expressed his concerns, and someone would definitely object to this.
Zhang Rang smiled when he heard this, "Your Majesty, as long as He Jin and He Suigao have no objection, I believe others will not say much. But even if there are still people who are talking about it, then Your Majesty will let them quell the rebellion! As long as they have the right people, then naturally there is no need for Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi!"
Zhang Rang also despises these people. You say you usually chatter happily, but when it comes to the critical moment, there will be no sound. However, if you ask a young man to lead troops to suppress the rebellion, look, these people will definitely have to jump out and shout.
Liu Hong also smiled, "What my father said is good, I know how to do it!"
The morning court of the next day, "I believe you all have heard that Wancheng in Nanyang has been lost. Now I want to send another army to quell the rebellion. I wonder what the ministers mean?" Liu Hong said to the ministers.
The ministers were well-informed. Of course, they knew that Wancheng had been lost, but they didn't expect that Liu Hong wanted to send a large army to suppress the rebellion. Ma Chao naturally knew that Wancheng was lost, but he didn't expect that Liu Hong wanted to add a large army to suppress the rebellion. He just didn't know who led it.
He Jin was the first to stand up and said, "Your Majesty is wise. I think this should be done now, but I don't know if Your Majesty has a suitable candidate?"
He Jin felt that since Liu Hong said so, he should have already had a suitable person under normal circumstances. If not, he would just like to recommend it.
But to be honest, there are indeed no good candidates. When he heard that the Yellow Turban Army was in a state of unstoppable power, the prefectures and counties were lost, and then burned down the government, killed officials and soldiers, and robbed them everywhere. Most people were already scared, and it was not just Liu Hong who was afraid. After thinking about it, He Jin felt that only Cao Cao and Ma Chao could take on the responsibility of suppressing the rebellion in the court.
"I want to use the city gate captain Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi as the right general and lead troops to suppress the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans in Wancheng. I wonder what the general meant?"
After saying that, someone looked at Ma Chao. When he heard that Liu Hong was talking about it, He Jin did not object. Although he was more inclined to Cao Cao, he would not be unacceptable if Ma Chao was. Although Ma Chao was very close to Zhang Rang, He Jin did not think that Ma Chao was from Zhang Rang's side. He felt that Ma Chao was more like a centrist and was not attracted, so He Jin always wanted to pull Ma Chao to his side.
"I agree, and I also think that Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi are the most suitable candidate!"
Seeing that He Jin had agreed, Liu Hong seemed very satisfied. Just as Zhang Rang said, as long as He Jin agreed, no matter how much others said, it would be useless.
After hearing this, Ma Chao was surprised. Unexpectedly, this good thing actually fell on his head. He knew that this was the result of Zhang Rang and He Jin's recommendation. If he could really lead troops to quell the rebellion, the two people he should be thanked the most. And Zhang Rang, He Jin and Liu Hong have become the cutest people in his mind now. What a cute trio.
"I don't know what everyone wants?" What should I ask is still a routine question, but no matter what the situation occurs, Liu Hong has already prepared his own words. He is no longer a mistake now. No matter how loud the objection is, he will still have to go against the public today.
Generally speaking, there will always be some disharmonious voices at this time. Sure enough, a minister stood up and said, "I do not agree with letting Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi lead troops to quell the rebellion. Think about Ma Mengqi, this person is one with a low-level qualification, and the other is not a great contribution to the court. And the most important thing is that I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to be competent. Please think twice, think twice!"
As soon as this statement was made, several of the ministers nodded, and some looked at Ma Chao again. Thinking about it, this is indeed the case. I heard that Ma Mengqi is not as young as he is, can he really take on the heavy responsibility? The three armies of rebellion, whether it is Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song or Zhu Yan, are all qualified, prestige and capable in the court, but how can Ma Chao compete with those three?
Ma Chaoxin said that Cheng Yaojin came out halfway, and he didn't know the person who opposed him, so he shouldn't have any deep blood hatred. But in fact, he can understand. After all, he is young, and others don't know how capable he is, so he naturally doesn't believe that he can do it. Since you don't believe it, you will prove that you are wrong one day.
"Hmph! Then you go and suppress the rebellion, I see that you can do it!"
Liu Hong said this, but the one who spoke before was gone after hearing this, and could only shake his head helplessly. He thought that he couldn't do this, so he should let others do it.
"I think Ma Mengqi is a suitable candidate, Your Majesty is a wise man!"
Another person stood up and said, Liu Hong saw that it was Ma Riyi. He had known that Ma Riyi was related to Ma Chao, so he was not surprised to see him stand up at this time. This sentence sounded like a natural sound to Ma Chao. He thought to himself that this uncle was not in vain. It was reliable at the critical moment, and he had to be his own family.
"I agree that Ma Mengqi is the only candidate!"
Cao Cao also stood up and said, although he also wanted to lead troops to quell the rebellion, seeing that Liu Hong's choice was Ma Chao, Cao Cao felt that it would be good to give Ma Chao a chance in front of him, and he believed that he would have a chance. Ma Chao was grateful to Cao Cao, and Lao Cao was definitely very interested and didn't say anything.
Liu Hong nodded, like Ma Riyi and Cao Cao, he wanted to see. He only heard him say, "I don't know what Situ meant?" He knew that as long as Yuan Wei agreed, there would be no problem in this matter. In fact, Liu Hong can make the decision now, but he still likes to see that all the ministers agreed unanimously, which is the most satisfying thing.
Yuan Wei stood up, "Your Majesty, I also think Ma Mengqi is competent!"
After hearing Yuan Wei's words, some ministers were puzzled. Why did Situ say that? Could it be that Situ really thinks like this?
Yuan Wei had long seen it. Both Zhang Rang and He Jin recommended Ma Chao. In fact, even if he disagreed, it would be useless. If Ma Chao could really break the Yellow Turban, it would be best. Everyone would be safe, but if they were not competent, they would have their own words at that time. Ma Chao felt that Yuan Wei had no friendship with him, and it was not so easy to talk to, and he didn't know what Yuan Wei thought.
Once Yuan Wei made a statement, there was no opposition anymore. Even if there was that, it was just thinking about it in his heart. No one dared to say this in front of Liu Hong.
"Since all the ministers have no objection, then this matter has been decided, and the city gate captain Ma Chao will accept the order!"
"I'm here!"
"I ordered you to be the right general of the Central Army and lead troops to suppress the rebellion of the Yellow Turbans in Wancheng!"
"I will receive the order to thank you!"
In fact, the monthly salary of the Right Central Army General and the City Gate Captain is the same, but Ma Chao thinks it is better to be the Right Central Army General.
"Meng Qi stays behind, everyone else will retreat, and retreat to the court!"
"No! I'm going to leave!"
The ministers left one after another, only Ma Chao stayed.
"My dear, this fourth way of suppressing the rebellion depends on you!"
"I will not let down your Majesty's expectations and do my best to repay Your Majesty's holy grace!"
Ma Chao could feel that Liu Hong had indeed given him great hope. Of course, no one who became the emperor hoped that the world would be in chaos. He could be at peace as soon as possible.
"Get the seal of the General of the Central Army and go and order the troops. The 10,000 Tiger Ben Army. I can only send so many troops now. I hope my dear will not let me down!"
Liu Hong handed over the seal of the Right General to Ma Chao, and Ma Chao stepped forward and took it with both hands.
"I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"
Liu Hong gave himself ten thousand Tiger Ben Army, which was already a lot, beyond Ma Chao's expectations.
"Okay, go!"
"No! I'm leaving!"
After Ma Chao left, Liu Hong relaxed. As an emperor, he could not show fear in front of his ministers, so he had to pretend to be the same as usual.
After Ma Chao came out of the palace, he returned to the mansion first.
"Wei Ping, come with me!"
I happened to see Wei Ping who was practicing martial arts in the yard, so Ma Chao called him into the house.
"I wonder what happened to the lord calling his subordinates?"
"Wei Ping, I was appointed as the Right General of the Central Army by His Majesty. I will go to Wancheng soon to quell the rebellion!"
"I will go with my lord!"
Ma Chao nodded, "No, I want you to go there if you don't say it!"
"Please give me instructions!" Wei Ping knew that his lord should have a task for them to complete.
"good!"
Ma Chao whispered in Wei Ping's ear for a while. Wei Ping nodded slowly while listening, knowing everything about Ma Chao's words.
"It depends on you together!"
"I understand, please rest assured to you, lord!" After saying that, Wei Ping turned around and said goodbye.
