"If you are courteous to others, you will ask for something. The general doesn't like to go around the bend very much, and asks General Dong to make it clear! Liu Tao smiled, he was still shirking before, but now he is so happy......

"In that case...... Dong doesn't go around the bush either. Dong Zhuo was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, his experience was enough, and he still maintained a flattering expression, "The general has repeatedly performed miraculous feats on the battlefield, but if it continues like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to drink the soup......"

"Planning to kick me out? Speaking of General Dong, you don't have this ability yet, right? Liu Tao asked jokingly.

"Catch you? Of course not! Dong Zhuo smiled faintly, "It's just that the general is also the Taishou of Yunzhong, and he has been away from Yunzhong for more than half a year, shouldn't he go back and take a look?" Even if the general doesn't want to go back yet, the imperial court should think about it. ”

In history, Zhang Wen planned to transfer Gongsun Zhan's soldiers over, but Gongsun Zhan only had a military position and did not have the identity of Taishou, so it was nothing to come over. But Liu Tao is different, he has the position of Taishou, and this time he came over as a guest army, and it is indeed a fact that he put down Yunzhong.

"If the Taishou continues to go out like this and does not return, there will be no one ......to govern the clouds," Dong Zhuo continued, "I'm afraid that the imperial court will consider changing someone to serve as the Taishou in the clouds." ”

Meow, Dong Zhuo is simply threatening himself! The problem is that if he is really Yuan Valve behind him, then maybe he can really say that Yuan Valve can be moved, and Shangjuan will let him go back, or even change Shangjuan to a Taishou.

It's been a year of hard work, how can a random chicken or dog be taken away?

At this point, Liu Tao probably understood that Dong Zhuo was directly having a showdown with himself. It doesn't matter if you fall out, you won't go anyway, so you will obediently lead the troops on the front line, and you don't know how long you will fight, and it is difficult to say what reward will be awarded after that.

Go back now, at least the farewell ceremony is prepared, and you won't let Liu Tao suffer!

Thinking that Zhang Wen had also said that before, Liu Tao understood that his previous performance had indeed made it difficult for these bigwigs. However, this is the first time he has experienced such a fair exclusion.

"Extra code!" Liu Tao replied, "I came to Liangzhou, the original purpose was to get a batch of good Liangzhou horses, and it was better to have Dawan horses!" ”

"As the last general's admiration for the general......" Dong Zhuo smiled when he heard this, he could see that Liu Tao was already planning to compromise. In fact, if he can talk about it, he doesn't plan to expose his murderous side, "Dong is willing to give the general five hundred good horses from Liangzhou!" Dawan horses can be sent before and after...... As for more, maybe it can be pulled, or sold to the general! ”

"I'm going to get a batch of supplies, I can't take that much with me, you estimate the price and see how many war horses you can buy!" Liu Tao replied, "As long as the things are in hand, I will naturally play and leave." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say......" Dong Zhuo said with a smile, those materials were useless to Liu Tao, who was about to leave, but they were very useful to him who was fighting on the front line. Not only can you use it yourself, but you can also share it with other allies to earn some prestige.

After staying in Linjing for five days, knowing that Liu Tao was leaving, Zhang Wen had to sigh with emotion, but he was actually relieved.

Should the materials be given or given, Liu Tao left some for the return trip, and gave the rest to Dong Zhuo. The latter wrote a warrant and told Liu Tao that the horses were all in Hedong, and when they passed, they could stop by to get them.

Also, it is impossible for Dong Zhuo to go around with thousands of war horses with the army, in case he is robbed by thieves, it will be miserable.

Then on the fifth day, Liu Tao received an order from the imperial court. First of all, Liu Ge was transferred back to Luoyang, and at the same time ordered Liu Tao to return to Yunzhong. This appointment is calculated as time, and it should be sent to Luoyang before and after Dong Zhuo found him.

"It's still saluted first and then soldiers......" Liu Tao threw the order aside, always feeling very unhappy. He fought to the death on the front line, fought so many victories, and as a result, he had to return to the clouds with an order.

What Yue Fei felt back then, he seemed to have some feelings. Working for others, when your status and influence are not high enough, in the final analysis, you are a pawn in the upper-level game.

You don't have to think about it to know that Yuan Valve used some political concessions in exchange for Liu Hong's compromise. Of course, it is estimated that he is also afraid that if he wins like this, he will be in the limelight, and even take into account the emotions of the front-line soldiers......

Anyway, Liu Tao is just unhappy, it's one thing to leave on his own initiative, and it's uncomfortable to be driven away by your conspiracy like this. I even thought about whether to continue to use the autonomy of the battlefield, and then go in a good wave.

"Lord, it's not bad to hide it properly." Guo Jia saw that Liu Tao's expression was uncertain, so he stepped forward to persuade, "At least it can make the imperial court, mainly Your Majesty, feel at ease." ”

The edict can start to be disrespectful, so Liu Hong will probably feel that Liu Tao is difficult to control, and even disobedient and has his own ideas.

"I didn't say I disrespected this order!" Liu Tao retorted, "I'm just thinking about how to maximize benefits!" ”

"This is a simple ......," Guo Jia said with a smile, "to complain to the court, and then extort more benefits." ”

Liu Tao is only twenty-four this year, very young, impulsive and competitive, and even a little petty when necessary, which is understandable. In other words, the more character flaws, the more safe it is to use it.

"Well, it seems that this is the only way." Liu Tao thought about it, and finally found that he had to do that.

The next day, the army assembled, and then began to return. Seeing Liu Tao leave, both Zhang Wen and Dong Zhuo were actually relieved. Huangfu Song in the team, Sun Jian, who has returned to the main force, has a somewhat complicated expression.

The two probably understood from Liu Tao that as long as there is political need, it doesn't matter whether the front line wins the battle or not.

Of course, it is also possible to excuse that the thieves have not been eliminated, so the battle has not yet been truly won. But with Liu Tao's powerful combat power, as long as there are no major mistakes, there is no need for others, and their 3,500 people may be able to quell this rebellion.

"Peace of mind to beg the thief is that this battle is not over yet......" Huangfu Song immediately came to Sun Jian's side and warned him.

"Whoa!" Sun Jian nodded, he naturally understood this.

Liu Tao didn't care so much here, turned all the way back, passed by Hedong, took 2,000 Xiliang horses and 20 Dawan horses, and began to return to the north.

His recital was sent to Luoyang about two days later. Just as he expected, the Shi clan had to transfer Liu Tao back at the expense of some concessions, and had to use the excuse that 'Yunzhong Taishou left the county for more than six months'.

I thought that Liu Tao would be emotional, but I didn't expect this guy to really complain in a book, and the whole story was full of sour taste.

"You still know how to play temper with me," Liu Hong smiled faintly, "But he did perform very well this time, not to mention that he defeated tens of thousands ......of ambush soldiers in front of Qi County, and then actually burned down the company camp and defeated the 40,000 army of thieves...... It's a pity that they didn't wipe out all the thieves. ”

After thinking about it, he looked at Zhang Rang beside him: "Father, how do you say I should reward him?" ”

"The palace is just about to replace a batch of palace maids, so why don't they all send him over. In addition, some financial rewards can be appropriately given, and the most important thing is to be promoted! Zhang Rang replied, "I don't need too many rewards, after all, he took the initiative to serve on the front line." ”

"It's worthy of Father!" Liu Hong laughed, but these words were somewhat sarcastic.
