Such people have noble morals, and they admire them in their hearts.
Hearing Gongsun Zan's words, even Han Lingdi couldn't help sighing, and he said comfortingly, "Gongsun Aiqing doesn't have to be so sad, and you don't blame you for this matter. You can only be a thief for a thousand days. The principle of guarding against thieves for a thousand days, Zhang Chun has long had the heart of rebellion, and you are just poor people."
Hearing what Emperor Han Ling said, Zhou Hao was delighted.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Han Ling was still so kind. It seemed that even Emperor Han Ling couldn't stand Gongsun Zan's miserable appearance.
"But now besides you, there are two other ministers who want to lead the army. General Zhou and Lord Liu, how do you divide the troops between the three of you?"
Emperor Han Ling looked at the three people in the audience with a half-smile. Now someone is leading the army to fight, and they are all three very capable generals.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty suddenly stopped worrying and started thinking about watching a play instead.
Zhou Hao was speechless when he saw Emperor Han Ling's playful expression. No wonder the Han Dynasty had already declined in the generation of Emperor Han Ling. With Emperor Han Ling being an unlearned and incompetent emperor who always wanted to have fun.
It is strange that the Han Dynasty can continue!
"Master Liu has a very high prestige in the court, and he has been familiar with military books for so many years and is good at fighting. If he can fight, he must be able to take that Zhang Chun with ease."
Han Lingdi introduced the three generals under his command one by one, as if this could make him feel at ease.
"General Zhou just killed that Zhangjiao some time ago, and before that, he also defended Zhuo County and defeated the Yellow Turban Bandits in Gepo. These feats are already brilliant enough, and it can be seen that General Zhou is brave and good at fighting!"
Finally, Emperor Ling of Han looked at Gongsun Zan.
In fact, in terms of merit, whether it is Liu Yu or Zhou Hao, both of them have much better achievements than Gongsun Zan, but Gongsun Zan has the right time, place and people at the moment.
Gongsun Zan was defeated by Zhang Chun, so at this moment Gongsun Zan was angry.
And the same court ministers were full of sympathy for Gongsun Zan,
"And Gongsun Aiqing has been fighting outside for many years and has excellent combat experience. She must be very qualified for this task."
Han Lingdi smiled and looked at the three of them.
"How do the three lovers choose?"
As the voice of these words fell, everyone in the court looked at Liu Yu, Zhou Hao, and Gongsun Zan.
To be honest, although Zhou Hao was the latest to come to the court among these people, everyone present did not regard him as an ordinary miscellaneous general.
The first is because Zhou Hao's original achievements were amazing enough even above the court. If he had already had a certain status above the court, he might be able to obtain a higher position now.
And when Zhang Chun rebelled, everyone suddenly realized that Zhou Hao's ability could completely quell the war, and after the war was quelled, Zhou Hao would most likely become the state shepherd!
The position of governor of a state is already more powerful than many ministers in the court!
Everyone suddenly realized that maybe a new star in the court was about to rise!
Therefore, when everyone saw Zhou Hao, he no longer showed the slightest contempt, but was full of friendship instead.
Of course, there was also Liu Yu's praise for Zhou Hao just now.
This also played a very big role.
So among the three, Gongsun Zan was the least favored.
Although Gongsun Zan also had a relatively good record, he was far behind Zhou Hao.
"I don't know who this general is, I haven't seen him before."
Gongsun Zan looked at Zhou Hao suspiciously, because he was keenly aware that the people in the court looked at Zhou Hao with friendly eyes.
You must know that above the court, even if you have been an official for three years, you are just a newcomer.
I have never seen Zhou Hao before, so Zhou Hao is just a newcomer, why can he get the kindness of so many people?
Above the court, all officials are seeking profit.
Without ability, others will not think highly of you at all, let alone show the slightest friendliness to you. Gongsun Zan still remembers how he was neglected at the court when he first came.
But the young man in front of him has actually received the friendship of so many people, which shows that he must have a very strong personal ability.
Zhou Hao cupped his hands, and said in a clear voice: "Next week, Zhou Hao is the city lord of Zhuo County. Not long ago, because he participated in the battle of defending the city in Zhuo County, he defeated the Yellow Turban rebels in Gepo and defeated the Yellow Turban rebels in Hebei. Thieves and Zhang Jiao, that's why I was lucky enough to be named General Smash Bandit by His Majesty."
Zhou Hao spoke very calmly, as if he was stating the facts, and he didn't show off his power at all, but it had a different meaning in Gongsun Zan's ears!
Gongsun Zan gasped.
On a horse!
The young man named Zhou Hao in front of him is not a newcomer, he is clearly a ruthless person!
Are people from Zhuojun so ruthless?
This feat can already be called dazzling, no wonder he is just a general of no name, yet he is favored by so many people.
This is a real record!
Thinking of this, Gongsun Zan couldn't help being shocked. In other words, the Yellow Turban rebellion ended entirely because Zhou Hao beheaded Zhang Jiao!
There will always be Zhou Hao's thick and colorful strokes in history!
This is the real hero!
Chapter 62
Emperor Han Ling looked at Gongsun Zan with great interest, and the more he watched, the more interesting he became, until finally Emperor Han Ling burst out laughing.
"Gongsun Aiqing, ever since you came, I knew that you would definitely invite troops to fight. At that time, I was thinking about how you would react if you knew that there was such a strong newcomer."
"Sure enough, your reaction today is as surprised and unbelievable as I predicted. How does Gongsun Aiqing feel?"
Emperor Han Ling looked at Gongsun Zan with a half-smile.
Sure enough, watching Quer and listening to operas is the most interesting!
Gongsun Zan gave a wry smile. In the past, he was always making fun of others, but he didn't expect that one day he would also become a joke in other people's mouths.
"Your Majesty was joking. General Zhou's achievements are extremely dazzling, and they are completely unmatched by mediocre ministers. However, such things as marching and fighting cannot be compared only by merit!"
Speaking of this, everyone couldn't help sighing, Zhou Hao's achievements are really amazing.
This is not the strength that an ordinary general can show at all.
Anyone would feel powerless in front of Zhou Hao, but Gongsun Zan was able to show such a strong desire to fight at this moment, which was enough to show his anger towards Zhang Chun now.
Gongsun Zan took a step forward and fell to his knees, "General Zhou may indeed be better at marching and fighting, but I am the one who knows Zhang Chun best!"
