Chapter 47: Fools have Foolish Luck

I am desperately updating and making a charge upward. But the number of recommended votes is pitifully small, which greatly affects the impact. Those who have votes, please give a push... The Four-Wonders Young Master has arrived in Luoyang. The Four-Wonders Young Master is already the governor of Youzhou and the general who campaigns in the north.

The news spread quickly. In just one or two days, it has rapidly spread in the capital. Now it's lively. From now on, Liu Zhan can no longer be at peace.

First, Huangfu Song invited Liu Zhan over. Liu Zhan has done a great favor. In the fire at Changshe, originally Liu Zhan fought alone, making a surprise attack on the Yellow Turban Army and defeating the rebels in one fell swoop. But when reporting the military achievements, Liu Zhan repeatedly insisted that this was a victory achieved under the unified command of General Huangfu Song.

It was the same in Hebei. The credit for seizing the city gate naturally belonged to Liu Zhan's army. The credit for killing Zhang Jiao was given to Huangfu Song. What a great merit. Huangfu Song is very grateful to Liu Zhan. Hearing that Liu Zhan has come to Luoyang, how could there be no reason not to invite him?

The Huangfu Song family also belongs to a high-class mansion with a wide area, showing that his family has a lot of background.

Huangfu Song's uncle, Huangfu Gui, is a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty and one of the three famous generals of Liangzhou. His father, Huangfu Jie, is also the prefect of Yanmen and has been a border general for a long time.

When Huangfu Song was young, he had both literary and martial aspirations. He liked poetry and books and practiced archery and horsemanship. He was recommended as a filial and incorruptible person and a talented person. He became a court official and was later transferred to be the magistrate of Baling and Linfen. He resigned due to the death of his father.

Later, Chen Fan, the grand counselor, and Dou Wu, the general, successively invited him to be an official, but he did not respond. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty summoned him to be a vice minister by imperial carriage. He was later transferred to be the prefect of Beidi.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion arose, the court was in panic and took suppression measures. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty appointed Lu Zhi as the northern Zhonglang general, Huangfu Song as the left Zhonglang general, and Zhu Jun as the right Zhonglang general. Each held a tally and mobilized the elite troops of the whole country to attack the Yellow Turban Army separately.

After the host and guests were seated, music began to play and singing girls danced gracefully. Liu Zhan stared at the singing girls twisting their slender waists and thought: Damn it. Singing girls are actually kept at home. When can I also keep a group of singing girls at home? When I am bored, let them dance a striptease or something to add some spice to life.

In this era, except for having sex, only this thing is left. It can be considered entertainment.

Damn it. This guy's thoughts are really dirty. In order to warmly entertain him, Huangfu Song specially invited singing girls to add to the fun.

Although Huangfu Song's family has some background, it is not so wealthy as to keep a group of singing girls at home.

"Brother. In this campaign against the Yellow Turban rebels, you have really helped me a lot. The rewards for me have also come down. General of the left chariot and cavalry, Marquis of Duxiang. There's no need to say more. Thank you here, brother." Huangfu Song expressed his gratitude. At such an old age, he treated Liu Zhan as an equal and raised his wine cup to invite Liu Zhan to drink together.

"What are you talking about? I admire brother's strategy and martial arts the most. This is my first campaign. I have no experience. I just rushed around blindly. I was lucky to win a battle. I owe everything I have today to brother's care." After drinking the wine, Liu Zhan began to talk nonsense. There was not a single true word.

"How did it become rushing around blindly? That fire at Changshe burned the Yellow Turban Army into a rout. This plan is very wonderful!" Huangfu Song didn't believe it. He thought he was being modest and polite. Of course, what Huangfu Song didn't know was that if Liu Zhan hadn't appeared, soon Huangfu Song would also set fire to Changshe.

"Let me tell you and make you laugh. When I rushed to rescue Changshe, I was extremely anxious and marched a bit too fast. On the last day, I ordered the troops to set off overnight. Unexpectedly, the vanguard troops rushed into the Yellow Turban Army's camp. I was a bit stunned at that time. Fortunately, the Yellow Turban Army was a mob. They didn't know how to fight. There wasn't even a sentry post. In the chaos, someone shouted: Burn them. This one sentence reminded everyone. They all lit fires one after another. You see, isn't this a lucky hit? Haha." Liu Zhan told this lie smoothly. His expression was extremely honest.

Huangfu Jianshou, the son of Huangfu Song, was sitting in the guest seat and had a hard time holding back. He almost burst out laughing. Damn it. This is how a commander is. This battle is fought so luckily. So this merit came like this. Damn it. Fools have foolish luck. This is too lucky!
