Chang'an City.

When Liu Bei led his men to Chang'an, something big happened to happen in Chang'an City.

The famous general Huangfu Song, who was so powerful that he died.

This famous Eastern Han general in the late Han Dynasty was guarded in Chang'an for less than two years. During this period, he recruited more than 35,000 elite Guanzhong soldiers for the court, and also fell to the last curtain of his life.

The Chang'an troops were temporarily trapped in a state of power vacuum due to Huangfu Song's death.

But this state did not last long.

After Liu Bei, the representative of the Grand Tutor Liu Yu, arrived, he immediately joined forces with Zhang Liao to compile the soldiers in Chang'an City.

As a general of the Bingzhou army, Zhang Liao was a relatively independent group. Since Wang Yun established the dynasty in Luoyang again, Zhang Liao has been guarding Chang'an with Huangfu Song in Guanzhong. Compared with other Bingzhou generals, he was even more free.

When the re-establishment of the dynasty was resentful, Zhang Liao was attracted by Wang Yun because of his ability, and he deliberately dug it out of Lu Bu and placed it in Chang'an... As for Huangfu Song, it was Wang Yun used it to restrain Zhang Liao's existence.

Logically speaking, Zhang Liao should be considered under Lu Bu's command, but compared to Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, and Cao Xing, Zhang Liao could not be considered completely under Lu Bu's command, because he had an army directly under him, that was the Bingzhou clan in the northern Luoyang army back then.

Since Dong Zhuo dug Zhang Liao's corner from Lu Bu, Zhang Liao has not been very popular with Lu Bu on his heart.

But on the contrary, Wei Xu and others who betrayed Lu Bu and were very traffic jams back then could still be reused by Lu Bu. The reason behind this is actually simple.

Because Zhang Liao never completely belonged to Lu Bu's direct subordinates, he was at most a vassal.

A vassal is different from a subordinate. A vassal has independent military command authority and can change the lintel or be independent at any time.

As the court was established longer and Zhang Liao guarded Chang'an for a longer time, he could feel that he could not just rely on Lu Bu in the court in the future.

It’s not that Zhang Liao was good at turning his back. In fact, Lu Bu was never Zhang Liao’s lord, at most he was his former boss. To be honest, he had to be He Jin and Dong Zhuo and other talents.

The pattern of Luoyang and the world is becoming more and more complicated, and Zhang Liao also needs to start thinking about the future of him and his soldiers and generals.

It was not until the previous episode that Liu Yu came to Chang'an for inspection and had a private conversation with Zhang Liao that Zhang Liao's heart suddenly became clear.

No one is the most legitimate one!

Only by following today is the kingly way.

Although Zhang Liao was entrusted to the court after Lu Bu and others surrendered to the court, Zhang Liao always had a knot in his heart, which was also a heart disease.

As one of the Guardian Alliance, Liu Chong, Chen, died because he was injured by him.

Is this a big deal or a small deal?

It’s not big, because the world is already chaotic and the Han Dynasty is in decline. Not to mention killing one or two princes and kings, Dong Zhuo changed the emperor and never saw those gentry officials doing anything to him.

It’s not small, because no matter how declining, the world’s surname is Liu!

Who can guarantee that the Han Dynasty will definitely not revive again?

If the Han Dynasty revived, then his seemingly Liu Chong's crime would be re-exposed.

This has always been his heart disease.

It was not until Liu Yu appeared in front of him that Zhang Liao felt a little reminiscent... The opportunity to completely erase his previous stain.

If I am willing to surrender to the emperor and drive directly to His Majesty, then I will be the general of the clan Liu family.

The emperor of the dynasty pardoned his sins, and if he changed the emperor in the future, it would be difficult to use this matter to cure him again, and the leisurely mouths of the people in the world would be blocked.

No one will ever talk about the incident where he killed Liu Chong!

The emperor pardoned me for killing his great-grandfather. What qualifications do others have to say?

Without any hesitation, Zhang Liao immediately expressed his willingness to revive the Han Dynasty with Liu Yu and serve the emperor.

...

Liu Bei came to Chang'an. Although some of the partial generals and the lieutenants who directly belonged to Huangfu Song expressed opposition to Liu Bei's take over the army, under the situation of the emperor's reputation and the fact that the dragons had no leader and Zhang Liao assisted him from the side, Liu Bei quickly gained a foothold in Chang'an and captured all the generals who opposed Liu Yu, and stabilized the situation in Chang'an as quickly as possible, and colluded with Zhang Liao to confiscate the military power of Chang'an.

Afterwards, Liu Bei ordered someone to go quickly to inform Liu Yu and asked him to come to Chang'an to take charge.

After Liu Yu arrived in Chang'an, he immediately sent people to send letters to Li Jue and Guo Si according to his previous plan, and sent people to Luoyang to ask for the warlords scattered in Liangzhou, including Li Jue, Guo Si, Duan Wei, Li Meng, Wang Fang, etc., to lead troops to Chang'an to discuss the strategy of attacking Han Sui and Ma Teng.

When the military power in Chang'an was controlled by Liu Yu, Xu Rong and Zhao Yun, who were assigned to Chang'an to assist Liu Yu, were stationed near the entrance of Xiegu.

Although the two of them were assigned to help Liu Yu, because the matter was of great importance, they still had to act cautiously before obtaining the most accurate overall information and not meet with Liu Yu at will.

After all, Liu Yu is different from Liu Qi, and Xu Rong cannot easily tie himself and the other party together.

In addition, there is another thing that makes Xu Rong hesitate.

It was just that he felt that he was not using a good deputy.

Liu Qi appointed Zhao Yun as the deputy general for Xu Rong, but Xu Rong was actually a little resistant.

After all, this kid is unknown. He was originally just a rebel leader appointed by Liu Yu in Youzhou. He was at best a military supervisor in Liu Yu's army and had never made any great achievements.

When Liu Yu confronted Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and others in Youzhou, he relied on Liu Guan and Zhang, and had nothing to do with Zhao Yun.

Therefore, Xu Rong was a little dissatisfied with Liu Qi's assignment this time, and felt that he was sending generals randomly.

...

Unexpectedly, Xu Rong and Zhao Yun were stationed in Xigu for less than three days, suddenly one night, the granary on the right side of their camp was robbed by the Yellow Turban thieves in Guanzhong.

By the time Xu Rong and his troops arrived, the Yellow Turban thieves had already fled with some of their food and grass.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Rong was afraid that there would be an ambush. Besides, the loss was not great, so he did not intend to pursue it. However, Zhao Yun took the initiative to ask for his order to chase him and said that the Yellow Turbans came to take advantage of the loopholes to rob the grain. If he did not attack him, it would be a must forcibly to boost the arrogance of the bandits and would be unfavorable to the morale of the three armies.

Xu Rong asked him how many soldiers he wanted, and Zhao Yunyan only needed a hundred cavalry.

After hearing this, Xu Rong almost lost his teeth, but in order to shame Zhao Yun's face, he still asked him to take someone away.

But he never expected that Zhao Yun led a hundred cavalry out and chased after him late at night, he could catch up with the Yellow Turban thieves, kill hundreds of enemies, and kill the heads of two Qu generals who came to steal food. The other Yellow Turban thieves threw their food trucks and scattered them.

When Zhao Yun delivered the heads of the Hundred Riders, Huang Turban Qu Shuai, and the grain carts to Xu Rong in front of him, Xu Rong was so impressed by the young general.

Not to mention the way of using military force, just talking about martial arts and courage, Zhao Yun is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

Moreover, Zhao Yun, who returned victoriously, had a normal expression, no proud expression or spoke much, but just handed over the troops and supplies very calmly.

This calmness and calmness also made Xuzhou very appreciative.

He finally understood the reason why Liu Qi asked Zhao Yun to be his deputy general.
