Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 173 Xu Gongming1

Among the people, only Ju Shu and Tian Yu could feel Jia Xu's lonely mood and sighed.

"Later, I happened to meet Yang Feng, an old acquaintance, and saw Jian Shuo under his introduction. When he saw that I was quite wise, he left me by his side. After a long time, he became a confidant." After saying that, Jia Xu smiled mocked himself.

"I think you have got rid of Zhen Shuo," Li Zhong said.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Because the eunuchs control the government, Xu felt that Luoyang was not very peaceful, and he heard that the lord went to Jizhou to eliminate the rebels at the request of Hanzhou Mu, so he found Jian Shuo." Then Jia Xu told the whole story.

It turned out that Jian Shuo was just a martial artist. How could he be so smart? So under Jia Xu's analysis, he saw Liu Hong, which showed that Li Zhong was rebellious and asked Liu Hong to take Li Zhong to the capital in order to control him in his hands.

This is the only way, and this is also Jia Xu's escape plan, but it has to be said that it is quite cruel.

After hearing this, Li Zhong shook his head with a wry smile. The poisoner really lived up to his reputation and was simply killing invisibly.

"Please bring down the crime," Jia Xu said to Li Zhong.

"Sir, what's wrong? Get up," Li Zhong said with a smile.

Jia Xu got up and hugged his fist and said, "Thank you for not getting drunk."

"To be the way, Lord, there is another meeting gift for the Lord," Jia Xu smiled mysteriously and said to Li Zhong.

When Li Zhong saw his treacherous appearance, he shuddered and asked, "I don't know what you want to give me," Li Zhong asked with great interest.

"General Xu Huang, come in," Jia Xu shouted outside.

A moment later, a burly and tall middle-aged man dressed in soldier's armor came in.

"Sir," Xu Huang saluted Jia Xu.

Jia Xu nodded and said to him, "This is the former general, Youzhou Mu Li Zhong, General Gongming, come and see him."

Now Li Zhong is still stunned. First, Jia Xu, and now Xu Huang. What is this and what? There is a little no reaction for a moment.

"I've seen the general", Xu Huang held his fist, and his voice was very high. At first glance, he was a practitioner.

Li Zhong came to his senses and looked at Xu Huang in front of him. He couldn't help but be happy.

"Gongming doesn't have to be polite. I don't know where Gongming is from," Li Zhong asked.

Who knows that Xu Huang is not Xu Huang? This has to be clarified. If it is true, Li Zhong will definitely make a lot of money.

"The last general is a person from Hedong", Xu Rong looked at Li Zhong with some doubt.

It's really Xu Huang in history. Li Zhong suppressed his inner joy and said, "I don't know what the general is doing here?"

Xu Huang knelt down and said to Li Zhong and said, "The last general came to defect to the general and ask the general to take him in." In fact, Xu was instigated by Jia Xu, but in fact, he was only willing to beat him. Xu Huang was also a military horse under Yang Feng in Luoyang, managing more than 500 people, and he was upright and flattered Yang Feng. A Fu is very disgusted. Whether it's for his future or his inner thoughts, he hasn't wanted to work under Yang Feng for a long time.

And at this time, he also heard that the Youzhou Army had defeated Goguryeo, which made him feel excited and excited. He knew that this was his choice.

So the two of them came here together.

And after he came in, he found Zhao Yun and others. Although he had not fought with them, he could feel that Zhao Yun and Deng Zhan's martial arts were definitely above him. As for Han Dang, Zhou Cang, Zhu Ling and other generals were also extraordinary, which strengthened his belief.

At first glance, Tian Yu was a resourceful thing, and even Jia Xu was willing to serve Li Zhong's account. He knew Jia Xu's wisdom. Although he thought he was brave and resourceful, compared with Jia Xu, he was a big witch.

And when Li Zhong saw that Xu Huang was going to defect to him, he looked at Jia Xu in surprise and saw that he was smiling at himself? Li Zhong also guessed a rough idea and sighed in his heart.

"General Gongming, please get up quickly," Li Zhong said to Xu Huang.

Because he is still very weak, he has sat on the couch before.

Li Zhong looked at Xu Huang and said, "My general is really like Emperor Wen's De Yafu (Wedi refers to Emperor Wen of Han, Yafu refers to Zhou Yafu: Zhou Yafu (199-143 BC), a famous general, military strategist, prime minister, Han nationality, Pei County (now Feng County, Jiangsu Province) in the Western Han Dynasty. He is the second son of Zhou Bo, a famous general. He is also a very famous military strategist in history. In the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, he commanded the Han army and pacified the rebels in three months. After that, he was unjustly imprisoned and killed himself.)

This is a very high evaluation for Xu Huang!

"The last general is ashamed," Xu Huang said in a little panic.

Xu Huang (?-227), courtesy name Gongming, a native of Hedong Yang (now southeast of Hongdong, Shanxi).

When Xu Huang was young, he was a minor official of Hedong County. He was promoted to captain because of his contribution to riding with the general Yang Feng to fight against the thieves. 192 AD (the third year of Chuping), Wang Yun and Lv Bu killed Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo's generals, Li Wei, Guo Yan and others, broke through Chang'an City, killed Wang Yun and others, and then became angry with each other and massacred themselves in Chang'an.

Xu Huang persuaded Yang Feng to escort Emperor Han Xian east into Luoyang. When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty crossed the river to Anyi (now north of Xia County, Shanxi Province), Xu Huang was awarded the title of meritorious personnel, and Xu Huang was awarded the Marquis of Duting.

In 196 (the first year of Jian'an), Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returned to Luoyang under the protection of the remnants of the imperial officials such as Zhang Yang and Xingyi General Yang Feng.

Yang Feng was worshipped as a cavalry general and garrisoned the army.

Seeing that the struggle between General and Si Li Lieutenant Han Siam and General Dong Cheng was intensifying, Xu Huang advised Yang Feng to return to Cao Cao. Yang Feng decided to follow Xu Huang's advice.

In 197 AD (the second year of Jian'an), when Cao Cao protected Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and wanted to move his capital to Xuchang, Yang Feng changed his idea of returning to Cao under the provocation of Han and Siam, and sent troops with Han Siam to rob him.

Yang Feng was defeated by Cao's army in Liang (now Kaifeng). Xu Huang took the opportunity to defect to Cao Cao.

From then on, he became a loyal general of Cao Cao and followed Cao to the north and south, making many contributions to the creation of Cao Wei.

Cao Cao divided his troops to Xu Huang, sent him to attack the two places of Juan and Yuanwu, broke them, and was worshipped as a general.

He also followed Cao Cao to attack Lv Bu and surrendered Lv Bu's generals Zhao Shu and Li Zou. Later, he and Shi Feng killed Sui Gu in Hanoi.

In 200 AD (the fifth year of Jian'an), in the Battle of Guandu, Xu Huang defeated Liu Bei, who defected to Yuan Shao with Cao, and defeated Yan Liang with Cao Cao, conquered the white horse (now northeast of Hua County, Henan), and entered Yanjin (now north of Yanjin, Henan), where he defeated Wen Chou and was worshipped as a partial general.

Later, he and Cao Hongshi and Yuan Shao went to Guandu with thousands of trucks of food and grass. Hit (hidden) people's arms and break them. In September, Cao Cao sent troops to fight against Yuan Shao. He was invincible and defended himself.

Xunyou, a counselor, said to Cao Cao: "Yuan Shao's grain truck arrived at night. Han Yong, his general who escorted grain and grass, was fierce but underestimated the enemy, and his attack could defeat him."

Cao Cao asked, "Who can take on this important task?" Xun You said, "Xu Huang can."

So Cao sent Xu Huang and Shi Wei with thousands of cavalry to attack Han Meng and intercepted his laden in his hometown (now northwest of Zhengzhou). Xu Huang made the greatest contribution in this battle and was awarded the title of Marquis of Duting.

In February 204 (the ninth year of Jian'an), Cao Cao took advantage of the conflict between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang after Yuan Shao's death and sent troops north to attack Jizhou.

Cao Cao surrounded Ye City and broke through Handan. Yi Yang ordered Han Fan to surrender and defend himself. Cao Cao sent Xu Huang to attack. Xu Huang's soldiers came to the city, wrote a letter to Han Fan, shot into the city with arrows, and Chen Ming persuaded Han Fan to surrender. After being persuaded, Han Fan changed his opinion and decided to surrender the whole city.

Xu Huang advised Cao Cao: "Now that Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have not been defeated, the cities that have not been captured are waiting for news. If Yiyang is destroyed today, those cities will defend desperately tomorrow, and Hebei will not have the day to be calmed down. Please recruit Yiyang to show it to the cities, so that they will all obey.

Cao Cao accepted his opinion and appointed Han Fan as the Marquis of Guan Nei. Then, Liangqi, the chief of Shexian County (now northwest of Shexian County, Hebei Province) was surrendered, and also awarded the title of Marquis of Guannei.

Cao Cao's ability to quickly eliminate the wings of Ye City, conquer Ye City, and capture Yizhou is inseparable from him who listened to Xu Huang's suggestion.

Immediately, Xu Huang attacked Maocheng (now southeast of She County, Hebei Province), and set up an ambush to defeat the Yuan army and break through Santun.

After that, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Tan in Nanpi (now Nanpi, Hebei), and Yuan Tan was killed by Cao's army.

Xu Huang calmed down the traitors in the plain. In the 12th year of Jian'an (207), Xu Huang followed Cao Cao to conquer Wuhuan. In the battle of White Wolf Mountain, he defeated the enemy army and more than 10 people under the famous king were killed. Cao Cao finally defeated Wuhuan and completely eradicated the remnants of the Yuan family. Xu Huang was worshipped as General Yokono.
