"Reporting to General Chariot and Cavalry, excluding the two thousand people transferred by Yuan Shao and the one thousand soldiers in the palace, there are now a total of seventeen thousand people in the camp!"
Wu Kuang blurted out without thinking. He was in the camp every day and knew all these things!
He Miao nodded. Seventeen thousand people seemed to be a lot, but in fact it was not a very strong force at all, because Liu Zhang was still there!
"General Wu, now that His Majesty is dead and Luoyang City is in chaos, I want to lead troops into the palace to quell the rebellion and install the eldest prince on the throne. Can you help me?"
He Miao stared at Wu Kuang and put his hand on the sword unconsciously. His intention was obvious. Once Wu Kuang did not support him, the end would not be good!
Wu Kuang had a ferocious look on his face. It was already in chaos. Once He Miao entered Luoyang with his troops, wouldn't it be chaos on top of chaos? If not done properly, it would lead to an even more chaotic situation.
"General Chariot and Cavalry, the situation is unclear now. Should we stay put? If we enter Luoyang again, will the situation get out of hand?"
"Luoyang City is in danger now. As a general of chariots and cavalry and the commander of the Royal Forest Army, how can I sit idly by and ignore it! Just tell me whether you will follow me or not!"
He Miao's tone was already quite unkind, and the hand holding the sword hilt tightened.
Wu Kuang knew that if he didn't agree, there would definitely be no good end, so he didn't dare to raise any opinions and agreed directly.
"Yes, I will obey the orders of the General of Chariots and Cavalry!"
He Miao was finally satisfied and walked to Wu Kuang and gently helped him up.
"With General Wu helping me, there is no need to worry about failure!"
"Order your troops and set off!"
The Royal Forest Army camp is in the north of Luoyang City, very close to Luoyang. If you march quickly, you can enter Luoyang in a quarter of an hour at most.
Naturally, He Miao didn't dare to delay. Time was the most important thing now. If he entered the palace a moment longer, he would have a better chance of winning!
Unfortunately, He Miao led the army not far forward when he saw an army blocking the way.
"General Wei, what are you doing here?"
The person blocking He Miao's path was none other than Wei General Liu Zhang, and he had already led the Xiyuan Army into position!
"General Chariot and Cavalry, where are you leading the army? This road leads to Luoyang City. What do you want to do?"
Seeing Liu Zhang blocking the road, He Miao was obviously panicked. Especially when he saw the silver-armored general holding a gun next to Liu Zhang, he felt pain in his back.
"Wei... General Wei, as the commander-in-chief of the Royal Forest Army! Naturally, he has to enter Luoyang to maintain order and put down the rebellion!"
"Where is the rebellion? Who is rebelling?"
Faced with Liu Zhang's questioning, He Miao was immediately speechless.
He Miao wanted to say that it was Zhang Rang who rebelled, but he knew very well the relationship between Liu Zhang and Zhang Rang, so he didn't dare to say it when the words came to his lips!
"Could it be that the Chariot and Cavalry General wanted to take advantage of His Majesty's death to launch a rebellion?"
"No! I didn't!"
No matter how stupid He Miao is, he will not let Liu Zhang label him. Rebellion cannot be acknowledged under any circumstances!
"Your brother He Jin was thinking of rebellion, and His Majesty ordered Zhang Rang to kill him! It seems you have no memory at all!"
When Liu Zhang said these words, He Miao was completely shocked.
"What! What did you say! Did your Majesty ask Zhang Rang to kill my eldest brother He Jin?"
Liu Zhang didn't hide it at all and nodded with certainty.
"That's right! If you dare to rebel against a thief, everyone in the world will kill him! If you don't kill him, what will you do with him?"
"You! Liu Zhang! You are so brave. You actually falsely conveyed the imperial edict and killed the general of the dynasty in vain!"
He Miao also completely woke up. Liu Zhang had bad intentions here! There was no need for him to be polite to him.
"Hahaha! What qualifications does He Jin, a loser who butchers pigs and sells meat, have the right to sit in the position of general? It is His Majesty's kindness to keep him to this day! How can it be called a wasted killing?"
"And I am very courageous. Your Majesty also ordered me to send the cavalry generals on their way. Aren't they coming to see our Han Dynasty cavalry generals again?"
He Miao was so angry that Liu Zhang trembled all over and pointed at Liu Zhang with an angry look.
"You, you traitor! What do you want to do?"
"In compliance with His Majesty's orders, I will send your brothers to reunite."
Liu Zhang answered He Miao briskly, with a smile on his face. But He Miao saw a cold look in his eyes.
"You are delusional! There are 20,000 troops behind me, do you think I will be afraid of you? Don't think I can't see that these are the trash of Xiyuan behind you! They are not your 10,000 cavalry!"
If Liu Zhang had brought his 10,000 cavalry, He Miao would have been scared to death. The terrifying combat power brought by the cavalry still makes He Miao feel scared. But these Xiyuan troops are not even a little bit worse!
All the dignitaries in Luoyang knew that the Xiyuan Army was just a bunch of new recruits, with little combat effectiveness at all, and their training was mediocre. He Miao dared to confront Liu Zhang here, so he naturally saw this clearly.
"Haha, He Miao, you really think highly of yourself! You He brothers are causing trouble, and you still want to drag the imperial guards to be buried with you?"
He Miao became more and more nervous. He found that Liu Zhang was always so confident! He couldn't understand where he got his confidence from!
"Liu Zhang! Stop spewing blood! Your Majesty has just died, and you killed my eldest brother with ill intentions, and now you are trying to take advantage of me! What do you want to do? It's not to eradicate dissidents! I think you want to rebel, you
Do you want to usurp the throne?"
He Miao thought that if he said these words, Liu Zhang would feel guilty and panic, and his generals and soldiers would be in turmoil, but the result was completely beyond He Miao's expectation.
Calm! The generals and soldiers under Liu Zhang were very calm, and no one listened to He Miao's words!
Even the generals under Liu Zhang looked at He Miao with great disdain, as if they were looking at a clown!
"Okay! The farce must be over!"
"According to His Majesty's decree, brother He Jin will be killed and peace will be restored to Luoyang!"
He Miao didn't believe it at all, pointed at Liu Zhang and yelled.
"Jiao Zhao, you are trying to fake the imperial edict! Liu Zhang, you traitor, don't try to deceive me! You are the rebel! I will kill you!"
Liu Zhang ignored He Miao's incompetent rage and instead shouted at the imperial guards.
"If we don't get rid of the thieves now, how will we wait?"
He Miao was shocked, and before he could turn around to check, a roar came from his ears.
"Get rid of the thieves!"
The general behind him swung his sword and slashed, instantly beheading He Miao! He Miao didn't even see who had betrayed him until his death!
The Royal Forest Army was immediately panicked. They all looked at the person who killed He Miao. He Miao's counselor was even more frightened and trembled all over.
"Wu...Wu Kuang...you...you are so brave! How dare you..."
Click!
Another slash came, and the counselor was killed instantly! In just a few breaths, He Miao's general Wu Kuang killed two people in a row, and He Miao and his counselor were all killed by the sword!
Wu Kuang glanced around and saw that no one raised any objections. He immediately got off his horse, walked to Liu Zhang and knelt down on one knee.
"Report to General Wei, Wu Kuangfeng kills the traitor He Miao!"
