As soon as Di Yang was about to stand up to thank him, he heard Sun Jian on the side trying to dissuade him.
"Sun joined the army? Why not?"
Sun Jian stepped forward directly, bowed his hands to Liu Zhang, and then glared at Di Yang.
"General Hou, this person is suspected of collaborating with the enemy. Don't let him go easily!"
"General Hou, I am wronged! If I collaborated with the enemy, how could I kill the enemy general in formation!"
Di Yang quickly straightened up and defended himself, looking forward to Liu Zhang with an innocent look on his face.
"Hmph! You still dare to quibble! If it weren't for you, how could you let my army of 100,000 people fall to death!"
"I'll kill you!"
With that said, Sun Jian drew his sword and struck Di Yang directly.
when!
Sun Jian's sword was held firmly against Di Yang's head by another sword, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not move any further.
It turned out to be Dian Wei, who rescued Di Yang at Liu Zhang's signal.
"You! Why did you stop me?"
When Sun Jian was stopped by Dian Wei, he was very angry and questioned Dian Wei with his eyes wide open.
"My lord has said that General Di Yang is not guilty, but there is something wrong with your ears? You can't hear, right?"
Dian Wei did not give in at all. Although Sun Jian was brave, he still did not take him seriously in his eyes.
"General Hou!"
Sun Jian knew that Dian Wei was difficult to deal with, so he looked at Liu Zhang again, hoping that Liu Zhang would understand his intentions.
However, Liu Zhang obviously did not give Sun Jian face, but directly sided with Dian Wei.
"Sun Canjun, I and Zhang Cheqi can judge the right and wrong, so I won't bother Sun Canjun."
Liu Zhang's tone was very calm, but Sun Jian heard it extremely harsh!
What do you mean? It means that my level is not high enough, so please stop meddling in your own business!
"Okay, that's the case, General, please help yourself!"
Sun Jian took back his sword and walked into the city without looking back. His good impression of Liu Zhang was completely gone, and Liu Zhang was not labeled as someone who did not distinguish between loyalty and treachery!
Di Yang stood up and quickly walked to Liu Zhang and bowed his hands in salute.
"Thank you, General, for your insight, otherwise I would have been unjustly accused!"
Liu Zhang patted Di Yang on the shoulder and showed a very kind smile.
"General Di, please return to the city and rest! We will need generals to go into battle to kill the enemy in the future!"
"Yes! I will definitely live up to the general's expectations!"
Di Yang bowed his hand to Liu Zhang, turned around, bowed to Zhang Wen, and walked into the city.
"General Hou, is there really no problem with this matter?"
Seeing that Di Yang had left, Zhang Wen approached Liu Zhang and asked again.
Hearing Zhang Wen's words, Liu Zhang knew that Zhang Wen must also have great suspicions about Di Yang, and immediately comforted him.
"Winning or losing is a common thing for military officers! General Di kills generals and makes meritorious deeds. This is a well-known thing! Don't let the soldiers' hearts get cold!"
Liu Zhang was already serious in his words, and he meant to educate Zhang Wen. However, Zhang Wen was not angry, but nodded with some understanding.
"The general's words are right, Zhang Wen has learned from them!"
"How dare you, Zhang Cheqi has worked hard today, he'd better rest early!"
Zhang Wen indeed feels tired. He has been running around all day, and his mental and mental abilities have suffered huge setbacks. Now he is also feeling tired!
"In that case, I will go to the city first, and the general will rest early!"
"Zhang Cheqi please!"
Liu Zhang bowed his hands to Zhang Wen, watched Zhang Wen leave, and then went to the military camp with his men.
"Master, why don't you ask me why I want to protect Diyang?"
On the way, Jia Xu saw that Liu Zhang had no doubts at all and couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, lord, even I feel that there is something wrong with Diyang!"
"But my lord asked me to save him, so I didn't dare to say anything!"
Before Liu Zhang could speak, Dian Wei answered first and looked at Jia Xu with a puzzled look.
"You're right for not talking too much!"
Liu Zhang pointed at Dian Wei, and then gave Jia Xu a strange smile.
"Wen He, I would be surprised if you didn't save him!"
"Hahahahaha."
Liu Zhang, Jia Xu, and Xun You all burst into laughter. Dian Wei was the only one who looked at the three of them in confusion. It was neither a question nor a question!
Soon, three days passed. These three days were calm, and even the Xiliang army stayed quietly in the camp, as if it was a peaceful era again.
The officers and soldiers were very busy these three days. Each department counted casualties, treated the wounded, and some soldiers who had escaped were returning one after another.
"Generals, our army was defeated this time. As the commander-in-chief, I have an unshirkable responsibility! I have reported the detailed process of the battle to the imperial court and am waiting for the imperial court to deal with it!"
Although Zhang Wen's tone is low, his mental state is not bad. Compared with the annihilation of the entire army and the annihilation of three tribes, it is the best result to only deal with him now!
"After this battle, Zhang Wen also deeply understood his own shortcomings. With my talents, if I want to lead everyone to defeat the Xiliang Army, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky! I intend to hand over all command rights to the rear general Liu Zhang!"
"You can't ride in a chariot!"
Liu Zhang stood up directly and firmly opposed Zhang Wen's approach.
"Zhang Cheqi must not languish because of a temporary defeat! I told Zhang Cheqi that victory or defeat is a common thing for a military strategist! I, Liu Zhang, have also been defeated several times! Failure is not terrible, but being knocked down by failure is terrible.
I can never stand up again!"
"Zhang Cheqi has a great trust from His Majesty, how can he give up halfway? I am willing to assist Zhang Cheqi, and I also ask Zhang Cheqi to take back his life!"
Liu Zhang's attitude was very sincere, without any pretentiousness. He really didn't want to take on this important task!
If you win, it's another great feat, and it's not easy for Liu Hong to award him a reward! If you lose, let alone a big scapegoat!
Liu Zhang would definitely not be able to accept this kind of undesirable thing.
"this..."
Zhang Wen also hesitated a little. He was unwilling to give up his power from the bottom of his heart, but now he could no longer convince the crowd. However, if Liu Zhang could really assist him with all his strength, the generals would probably not say anything.
When Liu Zhang looked at Zhang Wen's rolling eyes, he knew that Zhang Wen was still the same Zhang Wen and had not changed at all!
What Zhang Wen just said was not his sincerity at all. It was just that he could not convince the public, so he had no choice but to delegate power!
Sure enough, I gave Zhang Wen a step, and he immediately got off the donkey down the slope!
It seems that these three good days have made Zhang Wen forget about the pain again!
"General Hou, Dong feels that what Zhang Cheqi said is right! Zhang Cheqi doesn't know military affairs, so he will inevitably make some wrong decisions! Instead of doing this, it is better to let General Hou lead everyone, and we will defeat the West as soon as possible.
Cool rebels, let’s go home as soon as possible!”
It can be said that Dong Zhuo did not save any face for Zhang Wen, and even said that he did not know about military matters!
Zhang Wen never expected that Liu Zhang gave him a step, but Dong Zhuo broke it off abruptly! Although he was angry in his heart, he could not get angry at Dong Zhuo, after all, what Dong Zhuo said was true.
"General Dong's words make sense. Zhang is willing to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of his leadership!"
