”However, the rebellion in the West Cold also consumed a great deal of the imperial government's manpower and material resources. Ever since the Emperor ascended the throne, the West Cold had spent over forty billion on military expenditures. The war had caused serious damage to the production of Border County, causing the society and economy to be ruined. The population had been greatly reduced, and both the Qiang people and the Chinese people had been severely destroyed. ”At the same time, it has greatly damaged the power of the imperial government and caused internal strife.”

The man had rebelled all over the world, and it had a lot to do with the rebellion in the West. A large amount of military expenditures of the imperial government had been passed on to the citizens of the country, causing them to be overwhelmed by the heavy tax payments. In addition, eunuchs, outsiders and officials had successively seized power to bring disaster to their country.

”Your Majesty, if we want to resolve the West Cold's rebellion fundamentally, I think that we can give it a try. Ever since Yang Lin took over the Youzhou, on one hand, he exterminated the rebellion in the Urushion and the fresh inferior with force. They were used as citizens and soldiers during wartime, effectively stopping the invasion of Urushion and fresh inferior. A few years have passed, and the rebellion of the Urushion and the fresh inferior have basically subsided. ”

Thinking about Yang Lin, Huangfu Song couldn't help but feel a wave of bitterness in his heart. It was precisely because of this moment of carelessness that caused the great achievement of calming the yellow cloth fell upon Yang Lin. However, Huangfu Song was a broad-minded martial general after all. Although he didn't like Yang Lin, he still admired him a lot.

”As for the rebellion of Zhang Chun within the borders of the Youzhou, it was entirely the crime of this traitor, Zhang Chun. Even so, Zhang Chun's rebellion only came from the two counties, the other counties in Youzhou were not affected, and even the fresh inferior did not dare to take advantage of it.

”Actually, cultivating in the Border County was not Yang Lin's first time. At the time of Emperor Xuan, the old general Zhao Zhenguo was sent to fight against the rebellion of the West. After pacifying the West Cold's rebellion, Zhao Zhenguo implemented her plan of farming in the West Cold. He believed that there would be twelve spoils of war left for the land, and the army would have twelve, so he requested for the imperial government to adopt her plan. Later, when the Qiang people was at peace, and when the Border County was abolished, there was no return of the Qiang people. ”

”The best course of action now is for the Emperor to dispatch troops to annihilate the main forces of the rebel army, suppress the arrogance of the rebel army and drive the rebellious Qiang people towards the desert. They gathered the refugees and headed to the West Cold to protect the village. At the same time, they wanted the Imperial army to protect themselves. This way, the West Cold s will be at peace, and will be able to submit to others without fighting. ”

Obviously, Huangfu Song had already prepared himself to say so much in one breath. As a citizen of West Cold, he kept an eye on the situation in his hometown. As a high-ranking officer, he kept an eye on the situation in the world. Now that he had the chance, he told Hanling Emperor everything in his mind.

Hanling Emperor shut his eyes, quietly listening to what Huangfu Song was saying, but after Huangfu Song finished, he did not react for a long time. The chamber was abnormally quiet, no one dared to even breathe, afraid that they would disturb the Hanling Emperor's beautiful dream.

Huangfu Song thought that Hanling Emperor had fallen asleep and could not help but be extremely disappointed. He had been speaking for a long time, completely talking to the cow. Most likely, Hanling Emperor Liu Hong did not even hear a single word he said. He lowered his head gloomily, sighing in his heart. The big man was in such a state of decline, how could he sleep?

”Huangfu dantian, what do you think about Dong Zhuo?” Suddenly, Hanling Emperor opened his eyes and stared at Huangfu Song.

Huangfu Song lifted his head and just happened to see Hanling Emperor Liu Hong's sharp eyes. So it turns out that the emperor had not fallen asleep yet. However, he was not interested in his plan to quell the rebellion. He was focused on the generals who were leading the troops.

Since ancient times, the Emperor had always had a suspicion towards the great generals that led soldiers outside the city. Huangfu Song was not surprised by the fact that the great generals with exceptional achievements had even worried the Emperor. It's just that West Cold's rebellion is flourishing right now, so this was not the time to be suspicious!

”Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo grew up in the West Cold, and is familiar with the terrain of the West Cold and the tribes there. He has fought valiantly and defeated Qiang people's rebel soldiers many times, so he is indeed a rare general. Now is the time for the imperial government to use people. Letting him pacify the rebellion in the West Cold is the perfect time for everyone to do what they can. ”

Huangfu Song clearly knew that Hanling Emperor Liu Hong had never trusted Dong Zhuo. All these years, he had always used Zhang Wen Sikong as his rider and Yuan Pang as his deputy, leading the army to fight against North Palace's Bo Yu. He appointed Dong Zhuo as the General and assigned him to be under Zhang Wen's command along with General Zhou Xin, the bandit general.

Hanling Emperor Liu Hong waved his hands, interrupting Huangfu Song's words. He knew Dong Zhuo better than anyone else; he just wanted to see Huangfu Song's attitude towards him. We shall order you to be the Left General, to supervise the former General Dong Zhuo, and to unite forty thousand men to reject the Kingdom. ”How about it?”

From the moment he received the notification from Hanling Emperor Liu Hong, Huangfu Song had already expected that the Emperor would send him to West Cold to pacify the traitors. However, when the Emperor told him this new information, he still raised his head in surprise, staring blankly for a short moment. Then he knelt on the ground and said loudly, ”Thank you, Your Majesty! This subject accepts the decree! ”
