Li Ru's words made Dong Zhuo's heart beat wildly, but this time Dong Zhuo was not as excited as before. Instead, he glanced at the secret letter on the table and said with some hesitation: "Then
What to do with this secret letter? Did Zuo Feng's castrated dog just let him go like this?" Dong Zhuo seemed very unwilling in his words. Over the years, he had given Zuo Feng a lot of benefits, and he originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity.
They all have to come back. But according to what Li Ru said, Dong Zhuo can't fall out with Zhang just yet, so Zuo Feng has to be properly exchanged.
Of course Li Ru understood Dong Zhuo's thoughts and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, please relax. It's just Zuo Feng. How can that old castrate Zhang Rang take it to heart? Even if my father-in-law scrapes Zuo Feng alive now, as long as
We didn't express any intention to break up with them, so Zhang Rang will never fall out with us! This Zuo Feng! My father-in-law can do whatever he wants!" As he spoke, Li Ru's face showed a sinister smile again.
"Oh? Hahahaha! Okay!" Dong Zhuodang burst out laughing, patted his thigh hard, and shouted: "Li Ru! I changed my mind! Zuo Feng, don't move for now! I want to do it myself.
!”
Regarding Dong Zhuo's order, Li Ru just smiled and of course had no objection. Then Dong Zhuo reached out again and grabbed the secret letter on the table, and shouted with a ferocious face: "Okay! I'll do as you say! Let's order it."
With our troops and horses ready, we set off for Hedong! I still don’t believe it! Now that our troops and horses are strong, I still can’t accomplish great things in this great Han dynasty!”
——————————————The dividing line that appeared for the first time————————————————Since the last conflict with the infantry battalion on Suzaku Street
, more than six or seven months have passed in the blink of an eye, and the time has reached the sixth year of Zhongping. According to the calculations of later generations, that is the year 1**! Luo Yang, who is familiar with the historical development process, certainly knows how much will happen in this year.
Major events that affected history: Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty died of illness, and the prince Bian ascended the throne. This was followed by the Shi Changshi Rebellion. The powerful general He Jin died at the hands of several eunuchs! Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang and defeated Luoyang City.
The last enemy, Ding Yuan, finally deposed Prince Bian and established Prince Xie as emperor!
As time became increasingly urgent, Luo Yang became more and more nervous. What worried him most was that Wenpin, Liu Pi and others who should have arrived long ago have not arrived yet. This made Luo Yang day by day.
I am anxious and restless every day.
Of course, these are Luo Yang's private feelings. On the surface, Luo Yang still pretends to be proud of the spring breeze. He can't help but not do so, because now in Luoyang City, no one does not know Luo Yang's name! In a mere city
The Nanfang Lieutenant was promoted to one of the Eight Lieutenants of Xiyuan by the Han Emperor. This was already a surprise to everyone. Next, Luo Yang and Chun Yuqiong challenged Luoyang's veteran Overlord Infantry Battalion, and finally
Safe and sound, this made the dignitaries in Luoyang City couldn't help but secretly guess Luo Yang's true identity. Could he be the illegitimate son of the Han Emperor?
And Luo Yang himself really didn't have any losses. He originally thought that after the incident at Zhuque Street, he would be made things difficult by He Jin or punished by Jian Shuo. But he didn't expect that there was nothing wrong with it, and He Jin would go out of his way to pass it.
Lu Zhi expressed his friendship, and Zhang Zhang, who had provoked the trouble, was thrown into prison, and Wu Kuang later came to apologize. As for Jian Shuo, although he did not act as exaggeratedly as He Jin, he reported the incident to him in Luoyang
After the incident, Jian Shuo just said lightly: "Well done!" After that, the Xiyuan Army expanded again. Luo Yang's troops were the first to be expanded, adding 1,500 people in one go, becoming the second largest army in the army.
A team under Cao Cao and Bao Hong.
Luo Yang didn't understand why this happened at the time, but it was after Guo Jia analyzed it for him at the cost of five jars of wine that Luo Yang suddenly realized it. Speaking of He Jin alone, He Jin also had the intention of the Han emperor's actions.
How could you not know that his response strategy is very simple, that is, to recruit the Eighth School Lieutenant of Xiyuan to his subordinates! In fact, not only Luo Yang, but also among the Eighth School Lieutenants, excluding Jian Shuo, the Han Emperor died
Everyone else in the loyal faction was more or less attracted by He Jin's overtures, even Jian Shuo's cronies Zhao Rong and Feng Fang. Of course, Luo Yang didn't know whether these people accepted He Jin's kindness.
As for Jian Shuo, it is even simpler. Everyone in Luoyang City knows that the soldiers and horses of these five battalions are all under He Jin. If Luo Yang loses the face of the infantry battalion this time, he loses the face of He Jin.
Jian Shuo originally wanted to cause trouble for He Jin, but now Luo Yang helped him do it. It was too late to be happy, so how could he punish Luo Yang?
In short, in this seemingly peaceful situation between the two sides, but secretly competing against each other, Luo Yang happens to be standing in the most delicate position, at the central balance point between the two sides. In Guo Jia's words, Luo Yang's situation
The situation is neither good nor bad. A neutral faction like this may be able to get a lot of benefits in a short period of time, but once the two sides have a head-on conflict, Luo Yang will be the one who dies the fastest!
Regarding Guo Jia's alternative suggestion, Luo Yang certainly followed suit. Moreover, through the history he already knew, he already knew that Jian Shuo would definitely not be able to defeat He Jin, so Luo Yang passed Lu Zhi early and proposed to him.
He Jin expressed his goodwill. But what Luo Yang was most curious about was how the other members of the Eighth School Lieutenant responded to He Jin's invitation.
In any case, with the several expansions of the Xiyuan Army, its strength has surpassed that of He Jin's Fifth Battalion Army. At the same time, the outstanding abilities of the Eighth School Lieutenant were also demonstrated. The new recruits of the Xiyuan Army were
Under the intensive training of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, the combat effectiveness increased rapidly. At the end of last year, Bao Hong was ordered to go to Runan to suppress the Gepi Yellow Turban Army. The Xiyuan Army became famous in the first battle!
Not long ago, Yuan Shao and Chun Yuqiong went to Xiliang with their troops and horses to assist the left general Huang Pusong in suppressing the last forces of the Xiliang Thief Kingdom. Yuan Shao's troops were the first to break through the city gates of the thieves, which was also a great achievement!
In just a few months, the Xiyuan Army has surpassed the Fifth Battalion in terms of reputation and has become the most powerful soldier in Luoyang City! Now that the soldiers of the Xiyuan Army are in Luoyang City, it can be said that they are
After walking sideways, I heard that the general He Jin met Jian Shuo at the court meeting, and he was respectful and no longer as arrogant as before.
However, compared with other Xiyuan Army officers, Luo Yang is much more low-key. He repeats the boring routine of training, going home, training, and going home every day. Apart from occasionally talking to colleagues such as Cao Cao and Chun Yuqiong, he can talk with others.
Apart from going out for a drink or two, he rarely makes an appearance. But Luo Yang knew in his heart that he was waiting for the opportunity to come!
Finally, after waiting for several months, in early March, Luoyang finally waited for the army of Liu Pi and Gong Du!
"I have met my lord!" In the study room, after confirming that there was no one else around, Liu Pi and Gong Du, disguised as ordinary soldiers, immediately knelt down towards Luo Yang and shouted in unison.
"Okay! Just come! Get up! Get up!" Luo Yang's face was smiling like a flower. He stretched out his hand to help Liu Pi and Gong Du, and said: "Liu Pi! Gong Du!
I’ve been waiting for you!”
Liu Pi and Gong both clasped their fists and said, "My lord, please punish me if you fail to arrive in Luoyang on time!"
"Okay! It's not too late! It doesn't matter anymore!" Luo Yang had never thought about punishing Liu Pi and Gong Du. After these few years, Luo Yang had no doubts about his loyalty to Liu Pi and Gong Du.
Somewhat curious, he asked: "Speaking of which! According to the distance, you should have arrived long ago. Why did it take so long?"
Liu Pi and Gong Du looked at each other, but they blushed at the same time. Gong Du said a little embarrassedly: "This, this, my lord! When it comes to this, you still have to blame me! It has nothing to do with Liu Pi! My lord.
If you want to punish me! Please punish me alone!"
"No!" Liu Pi saw it and shouted quickly: "My lord! Don't listen to his nonsense! This matter is my idea! It has nothing to do with him! Besides, my lord said that when he handed over the army to his subordinates.
This army is led by me, and Gong Du only assists me! So this responsibility should be borne by me! It has nothing to do with Gong Du!"
After going back and forth, the two of them started to argue, vying to take responsibility. Luo Yang listened to a few words, but he didn't hear any useful answers. When he heard it, he shouted impatiently: "Okay! Okay!
Did I say I was going to punish you? Tell you! I won’t punish anyone! Now I just want you to tell me the whole thing! You! Gong Du! It’s up to you! Liu Pi
Don't interrupt!" Luo Yang was worried that the two of them would start arguing as they talked, so he simply lit Gong Du and let him speak alone.
After Luo Yang said this, Liu Pi and Gong Du naturally did not dare to say anything else. Immediately Gong Du clasped his fists and said: "Yes! Lord! After we received the Lord's secret order from Wenpin last year, we used the final
Raise troops to Luoyang as quickly as possible! According to the speed of our march, we will definitely be able to reach Luoyang before the end of last year!"
Luo Yang nodded. Although the marching speed was still much slower than that of a normal army, considering the special nature of Liu Pi and Gong Du's army, they could not be easily discovered by others. Naturally, they had to be cautious during this march.
, so this speed is normal. But even so, it is already March of the next year, which is still several months late! However, Luo Yang did not rush to ask, but
Waiting for Gong Du's answer.
Gong Du just paused, and then continued: "In order to deceive others, we chose to bypass Luoshui, go north from Huashan, go to Shouyang Mountain, and then east to Luoyang. But we didn't expect that when we just arrived at Shouyang
When we were in Yangshan, we discovered something big!"
