    "Hahaha. I didn't expect that the three of us rushed so fast and fiercely at the beginning, but we were missed by Bufan later. This kid really has some great luck."

    On the contrary, Cao Cao was not disappointed at all, but rather made fun of him.  Dong Zhuo was so angry that he gritted his teeth and shook his sleeves angrily. The leader didn't know where to run.

    As the news of Zhang Jiao¡¯s execution spread, all the remaining thieves in Guangzong City lost their will to fight and knelt down to surrender.  At this time, there was no resistance from the rebels in Guangzong City, and the imperial troops officially occupied Guangzong City.

    Two hours later, the battlefield was cleared and the results of the battle were tallied.  This war, which was related to the future trend of the world, ended with a great victory for the imperial court.

    The imperial army suffered less than a few thousand casualties. Except for the insignificant bandit leader Liu Pi, who led hundreds of troops to escape, the bandit army was almost completely wiped out, and a total of 60,000 enemy troops were killed.  At the same time, the only two remaining core figures of the Yellow Turban Bandit Army, Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao, were killed one after another, and the two major commanders, Bo Cai and Peng Tuo, were also killed in battle.

    As the leading general, Lu Zhi was of course beaming with joy. He opened the grain depot in Guangzong City and prepared banquets for several days to reward the soldiers of the three armies. At the same time, he made people work hard to report Guangzong Jie to the court.

    But when Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty received the good news from Guangzong, it was already ten days later. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed and extremely excited in court. His pale face, which was originally in poor spirits, suddenly became red and transparent, as if all of a sudden.  Five or six years younger.  He also announced to the court that he would reward Lu Zhi, Dong Zhuo, Wen Han, Cao Cao and other meritorious generals.

    Among them, Wenhan's name was mentioned the most by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.  Because in the battle report, his record was so outstanding that it eclipsed the others.

    Whether it was breaking the thief army's tripod formation, flooding the thief army, or beheading Zhang Jiao, these achievements made Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty admire him again and again. In addition, Wen Han burned Cheng Zhiyuan in Zhuo County for five months a few months ago.  The record of thousands of thieves.  The two opposite-sex brothers under his command, Guan Yu and Xu Huang, had great fighting spirit, especially Guan Yu. Zhang Liang and Guan Hai died in his hands.

    For a time, Wenhan's momentum was astonishing.  Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty even intended to make Wenhan the second champion, but he still tested it first to see the reaction of the officials.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:

    It is also possible that he will take credit and become arrogant and become a major hidden danger.  Moreover, Wenhan is only twenty-three now, and his potential is unlimited. If he has great achievements in the future and is already a prince, what other titles can he be granted?  Some people even recounted Wei Qing's deeds when he took power.

    Wei Qing took power, which was a serious problem for the Han Dynasty.  Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty immediately gave up the idea of ??making Wenhan a marquis.  Put aside the reward for him for the time being, and discuss with the officials about the rewards for other meritorious generals.

    As a leading general, Lu Zhi deserved a great reward. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty named him General Zhenbei, Marquis of the Northern Capital, and fed 2,000 households.  Dong Zhuo came to the rescue with meritorious service, and killed Peng Tuo, the commander of the bandit army. He was granted the title of general and fed 1,500 households.  Cao Cao had military exploits in both Yingchuan and Guangzong. His generals Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and Cao Chun killed the rebel army Qu Shuai Bocai. The rebel army Digong General Zhang Bao was granted the title of Zhonglang General and had a thousand households under his command.  Generals with meritorious service in battle will receive different rewards.

    As for Liu Bei, whom Lu Zhi said was a descendant of the Han Dynasty and had the blood of a royal grandson, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was very troubled.  Because these days, there are so many people who want to be in power, and they are trying every possible means. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty does not know whether Liu Bei's identity is true.  And he would never order a family tree search for someone he had never met.

    There is no other reason. The Han Dynasty already has enough princes and grandsons at this time. All of these people are uneasy and well-intentioned people. In order to appease them, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had to delegate power to them.  Therefore, even if Liu Bei was indeed of royal blood, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was not too willing to admit it.

    Zhang Rang and some ministers did not want to see Lu Zhi, who had become a powerful military officer after his great achievements, and continued to expand his power. They gave many reasons and suggested that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty put him aside until his identity was confirmed.  , make plans again.  This was in line with Emperor Ling's wishes, and he immediately accepted their suggestions.

    On the other side, the war in Nanyang and Dongjun has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

    A month ago, Qin Jie, the governor of Nanyang, fought with Zhang Mancheng and killed Zhang Mancheng.  The Yellow Turban Army changed its command to Zhao Hong and retreated to Wancheng with more than 100,000 people.

    Later, Zhu Jun arrived with reinforcements, and soon a fierce man named Sun Jian came to help with a volunteer army and besieged Wancheng. Sun Jian was a brave man who was invincible and was invincible.  , fought bloody battles, led the troops to the city and entered first, then launched a general attack on the court soldiers and horses, advancing like ants, defeating the enemy.

    The commander of the canal, Zhao Hong, was killed, and the remnants of the rebel army, led by Han Zhong, were surrounded by Zhu Jun, Jingzhou governor Xu Qiu, Qin Jie and Sun Jian, a total of 18,000 soldiers.

    &nbspZhu Jun was unable to break through the rebel army due to the small number of troops, so he expanded the defense, built forts, and built mountains of earth to observe the city.  Later, Zhu Jun came up with a plan. The army beat the drum and attacked the southwest. The Yellow Turban Army was diverted. Zhu Jun personally led 5,000 elite troops to cover up the northeast, sneak attack on the enemy's rear, and invade the city.  Han Zhong had no choice but to surrender the inner city.

    The Yellow Turban Army was frustrated and their morale was low. At this time, news of the defeat of Guangzong Zhangjiao came, and the rebel army no longer had the intention to fight and begged for surrender from the Han army.  Both Xu Qiu and Qin Jie thought it was acceptable, but Zhu Jun believed that if he accepted it, it would give the people the wrong idea of ??being a thief and begging for surrender without any benefit, so he did not accept it and rushed to attack the enemy, but he could not conquer it after several battles.

    Zhu Jun climbed up the Tushan Mountain to watch the Yellow Turban Army, and realized that the Yellow Turban Army had no way out and was forced to fight to the death, so it failed to conquer.  Zhu Jun then relieved the besieging army. As expected, Han Zhong went to battle and was defeated by Zhu Juan. Zhu Jun pursued Han Zhong for dozens of miles north and killed more than ten thousand people. Han Zhong surrendered. Qin Jie, who had always been at odds with Han Zhong, sent  He kills.

    This move made the Yellow Turban Army uneasy, and they promoted Sun Xia as commander to garrison Wanzhong City.  Zhu Jun rushed to attack again, but Sun Xia was defeated. The imperial troops chased him to Jingshan Mountain in western Hubei, beheaded Sun Xia and the remaining soldiers under his command, and the Yellow Turban Army was disbanded.

    Here, the rebellion in Nanyang was put down.

    On the other hand, Huangfu Song also led his army to Cangting in Dongjun one month ago, defeated and captured Buji alive, and killed more than 7,000 people.  After Bu Ji's death, his troops were led by Guan Hai. However, Guan Hai's prestige in the army was not high, and he was unwilling to take charge of it. Huangfu Song led the army to advance all the way, and was defeated one after another.

    Later, Liu Pi, who had escaped from Guangzong, arrived, and also brought news that Guangzong Zhang Jiao had been killed in battle. Guan Hai was afraid of affecting the morale of the army, so he asked Liu Pi to keep the news strictly sealed.  However, Liu Pi was determined to surrender to the court, and he led a rebellion with some small leaders, and conspired with Huangfu Song to ambush Guan Hai, causing Guan Hai's army to suffer heavy losses.

    Seeing that there was no way to save the situation, Guan Hai led the remaining troops to withdraw from Dongjun.  Huangfu Song saw that Guan Hai had fewer than a few thousand troops and fled into the mountains, so he allowed him to escape.  Later, because Huangfu Song didn't like Liu Pi as a person, he took away his military power and ordered him to be killed. After the rebels under his command learned about it, they did not dare to rebel and voluntarily obeyed Huangfu Song's orders.

    At this point, as the fighting in the East County area finally ended, the Yellow Turban Uprising that lasted in September was like a flash in the pan and declared a failure!

    Although the Yellow Turban Uprising ultimately failed, there are some things that, once started, are not so easy to end.  Although the rebellion was suppressed, the prestige of the Han Dynasty suffered a serious blow. Although the Yellow Turban Sect led by Zhang Jiao withdrew from the stage of history, small rebellions continued to occur throughout the world, creating many scattered forces.

    Such as Heishan, Baibo, Huanglong, Zuoxiao, Niujiao, Wulu, Changgen, Li Damu, Zuo Zhuzhangba, Kuji, Liushi, Pinghan, Dahong, Bairao, Sili, Yuancheng, Luoshi, Leigong  , Fuyun, Feiyan, Bai Jue, Yang Feng, Yu Du, etc., the small ones may have thousands of people, and the powerful ones may even have hundreds of thousands, such as Zhang Yan's Black Mountain bandits.

    The Han Dynasty court, which was seriously ill, had a large tumor removed, but all kinds of diseases were on the rise.  The world is like a honeycomb filled with holes.  Due to the demise of the Yellow Turban Sect, the prefects and governors of various prefectures and prefectures were able to let go of the worries that had been in their throats day and night. Now they were faced with rebellion, and they were all extremely busy.

    But they all agreed in a tacit understanding and did not report to the court for the time being.  These people are all old and cunning people who know how to behave as ministers. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was very happy at this time. If he suddenly got such bad news, the joy and loss would be the most uncomfortable. It would be inevitable that he would be furious. Who would be at that time?  The one who reports it first will definitely suffer the greatest implication. He is not afraid of losing his official position, but the most afraid is that he will lose his life, and may even harm the nobles.

    It was exactly half a month before the end of Guangzong's war. After Lu Zhi made arrangements for Guangzong's affairs, he led his army back to the court in triumph.  When they returned to Luoyang, the armies of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who had ended the war in Nanyang, Dongjun, also returned one after another. The three armies returned to the court one after another almost on the same day, and were warmly welcomed by the people of Luoyang. The people of Luoyang decorated the streets with lanterns and streamers.  Starting from the city gate, we welcome you all the way.
