Just when Zhang Hao and the others led the troops south. Beizhong Lang's general Lu Zhi had already defeated Zhang Jiao many times, driving him from Guangnian County all the way to Guangzong County.

Outside Guangzong County, he once again defeated Zhang Jiao's men and horses. And Zhang Jiao could only hide in the city with the remnants of the defeated generals and hold on.

Lu Zhi besieged but did not attack, rectified morale, made siege weapons, and prepared to take Guangzong County in one fell swoop.

But at this moment, a man appeared in front of him and ruined the fruits of his hard-earned victory.

Since Zhang Hao's first victory in Jixian County, the Han army has changed its previous decline and launched a fierce counterattack, which is like a bamboo.

First, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun defeated the Yellow Turban in Yuzhou, and then Lu Zhi defeated the thief's first horn in Jizhou, and good news from all over the country continued to enter the Luoyang Palace.

The victory made the Spirit Emperor get carried away from the previous depression and joy.

In his heart, the Han army is still the invincible Han army in the world, and there is no need to worry about the rebellion of the people.

So Emperor Ling sent eunuchs to the front line to comfort the meritorious soldiers and learn about the current military situation.

And the one who came to Lu Zhijun to condolence was a little eunuch named Zuo Feng.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Zhi and the sect members were discussing the current preparations of the Han army, but the sect members were a little absent-minded.

"You seem to have been preoccupied since yesterday, what are you worried about?" Lu Zhi looked at the map with his eyes and said to the sect member.

The sect member sighed: "Alas, it's nothing. Yesterday there was no fast horse to report, today there will be an envoy from the imperial court to inspect our military camp, I have been thinking about this matter in my heart, and I have a sense of foreboding. ”

Lu Zhi smiled: "Hehe, I thought it was something that upset you, but it turned out to be such a trivial matter." ”

"A trifle?" The sect member was surprised, "How could the general think this is a trivial matter?" ”

Lu Zhi didn't care at all: "A few years ago, when I was quelling the rebellion in Jiujiang and Lujiang, didn't there be angels who came to comfort the three armies? Nothing to worry about. ”

The sect member was a little anxious: "But this time is different, it is the eunuch who came to the front line to condole this time." ”

Lu Zhi snorted coldly: "Hmph, what about the eunuchs, they dare to meddle in military affairs." ”

As a prestigious Confucian in the world, and a famous general in the world, there are a few people like him. The rest of the people, the sycophants, Lu Zhi didn't want to look at them.

"They don't dare to meddle in military affairs, but it is their ability to slander the Son of Heaven."

The sect member was a little embarrassed and said what he thought in his heart: "Why don't we take out a small part of the loot we have captured in these battles and give it to the eunuchs who came......

"Shut up!" Lu Zhi suddenly reprimanded, "In your opinion, you want me to bribe such villains, wouldn't this damage my reputation!" I didn't expect your sect member to say such a thing. ”

The sect member persuaded bitterly: "This is a small matter of damage to fame. If he does not please his peers, the Son of Heaven will listen to his slander and personally intervene in military affairs at that time. ”

Lu Zhi stretched out his hand and motioned him to stop talking: "Don't say it again, you and I have been friends for many years, you know who I am, and I can't flatter the villain." Don't mention this matter again, or don't blame me for ignoring the past. ”

The sect member sighed, thinking that there would be more trouble in the future. However, he admired Lu Zhi's personality even more.

……

After noon, a team of guards escorted a carriage and came to the Han army camp outside Guangzong City.

The little eunuch Zuo Feng poked his head out of the car, but saw that the gate in front of the camp was closed, and no one came out to greet him.

"Did you come to the barracks to inform me of the itinerary before?"

The guard said, "Angel of Enlightenment, my subordinates sent someone to pass the word yesterday. When he was still five miles away from the barracks, his subordinates sent people to come. ”

When Zuo Feng heard this, he immediately became angry, thinking that this Lu Zhi dared to despise himself so much, and if he didn't have an explanation, he would definitely make him pay.

"Go, go and report to me again, just say that the messenger of the Son of Heaven to condolence the three armies has arrived at the camp gate, and let General Beizhong Lang lead the team out to greet him."

"No."

After a while, the camp gate opened, but only one man returned with the guard.

The man bowed and said: "The humble position is that the general of Beizhonglang joined the army under the account, and he was ordered by the general to come to welcome the angel into the camp. ”

What a Lu Zhi, he actually asked a little Shuzuo to come and perfunctory me!

Zuo Feng was indignant, and asked in a low voice: "What about General Beizhong Lang, why didn't he greet him personally, didn't he know that this envoy was coming, such as I was here!" ”

One is the top boss, the other is the messenger of the Son of Heaven, Shuzuo is caught in the middle of the two parties, and his heart is extremely broken. Alas, why bother with being a little person.

"General Kitakaro is busy with affairs and can't get out. So...... Hehehe. Shusa smiled a little ugly.

"Hmph, let's go to camp."

However, after entering the barracks, the carriage was stopped by the guards again.

"Horses are not allowed to run in the barracks, and angels are invited to get out of the car and walk."

Zuo Feng poked his head out again and roared angrily: "Bastard, do you know who I am, I dare to stop it!" ”

The guard saluted and said, "The military regulations are like this, where the duty lies, please get out of the car." ”

Zuo Feng gritted his teeth and blamed it all on Lu Zhi's neglect and humiliation of himself.

When he arrived at the big tent of the Chinese army, Zuo Feng saw Lu Zhi staring at the map, motionless.

"Didn't you say that General Lu was busy with military affairs, how can I look at the general as if he was very idle?" Zuo Feng was not good.

Lu Zhi turned around and saw a eunuch standing in the tent, so he knew who was coming.

"It turned out that an angel came, and it was far away. However, angels only know how to serve the Son of Heaven, but they do not understand military affairs, so it is normal to have such ignorance. ”

Lu Zhi smiled and looked at Zuo Feng, who was about to go berserk: "The general is thinking about a strategy to break the city, neglecting the angels, and please forgive me." But since the angel has arrived, he can take the angel to tour the barracks first. ”

Zuo Feng still held back the anger in his heart, after all, Lu Zhi was a general appointed by the Son of Heaven, and he was just a small chamberlain, even if he relied on his identity as an angel, it was not good to offend him in the camp.

"Then there will be General Law."

Accompanied by Lu Zhi, Zuo Feng walked around the entire military camp, and also took a closer look at the county seat of Guangzong in the distance, and was exhausted when he returned.

Zuo Feng thought that it would happen, but it didn't happen the whole time, which made him shocked and angry.

As a eunuch, he really doesn't understand things in the army, and he sees so many things in vain.

The little eunuch who has a low status in the palace and is called to drink is the most beautiful when he goes out of the palace to be the messenger of the Son of Heaven. At this time, you will not only be respectful by those who are high up on weekdays, but you can also take advantage of it by the way.

But neither of these things happened with Lu Zhi. Not only has he been despised and neglected by him from beginning to end, but he also seems to have no desire to give benefits at all, so that he can speak well in front of the Son of Heaven.

Zuo Feng decided to give Lu Zhi another chance and remind him himself.

When he returned to the camp to rest, Zuo Feng said in a roundabout way: "After this inspection, I found that General Lu really managed the army well, and he deserved to be a famous general in the world. When I go back to report it, the Son of Heaven will be happy. ”

Lu Zhi stroked his beard and said with a smile, "The angel is overrated." ”

"The envoy reported truthfully, and he didn't mean to praise the general." Zuo Feng stared at Lu Zhi and said word by word.

"It's just that the mountains and rivers are far away from coming and going, and I am physically and mentally exhausted. There are no complaints about the duty of this envoy, but the guards below are ...... Hehe, doesn't the general make a statement? ”

This can be regarded as a clear statement, I believe he will definitely say something

Lu Zhi ignored it: "I'm afraid this is going to disappoint his generation, this general is very strict in governing the army, and there is no property in the army to comfort them." Even if there is, it is a reward for the three armies. ”

Zuo Feng's face was a little distorted: "But the general has won consecutive battles, and this envoy has also seen a lot of ...... in the army."

"Those are the goods of the people, and the people may not take the fat and anointing of the people. Even if no one collects it in the future, it will be collected from the treasury and will not dare to be diverted for other purposes. ”

Zuo Fengteng stood up suddenly: "This is very good, I have fulfilled the order of the Son of Heaven, and I will not stay for long." After saying that, he walked out of the tent in a rage.

Lu Zhi snorted coldly: "Despicable villain, dare to ask me for a bribe, if it weren't for the identity of an angel, I would directly pull you out of the camp and behead you!" ”

Zuo Feng, who hadn't gone far yet, heard this, his face was hideous and terrifying, and his hands were clenched into fists.

"Lu Zigan, I want you to die without a place to be buried!"

……

Just as Zuo Feng returned to Luoyang City, he met a team of people. Sitting in one of the carriages was the little eunuch who went to give Zhang Hao an edict.

"Yo, isn't this Wang Tun," Zuo Feng greeted, "Where did you come back from?" ”

The little eunuch was originally called Wang Tun. Both of them have been in the palace for a few years, and they are of the same level.

Wang Tun said with a smile: "Didn't I go to Youzhou to announce the edict a while ago, and I just came back." ”

Zuo Feng looked at the guards beside him and the big box pulled behind him, and asked, "These people don't seem to be the guards of the Northern Army, right?" ”

Wang Tun said triumphantly: "Don't mention it, count me unlucky, I ran into rebels on the way, and those janissaries died." But fortunately, he was rescued by General Zhang Hao and Zhang, who was passing by. ”

Looking at Zuo Feng's confused appearance, Wang Tun added: "It's the newly sealed Cangting Marquis of the Son of Heaven, the General Zhang I went to proclaim the edict."

Oh, this general Zhang is not only good at using soldiers, but also loyal to the monarch and the country, worried about the difficulties of the Son of Heaven. Entrust me with all the booty he has seized and return it to the treasury.

Because the forbidden army was killed in battle, he sent 500 knights to send me back to Beijing. After entering Henan Yin, only a team of knights remained, and everyone else went back.

And sympathetic to my hard work...... Hey. ”

As he spoke, he made a gesture, meaning how much benefit Zhang Hao had given him.

There is no harm without contrast. This made Zuo Feng envious and jealous, and even more resentful of Lu Zhi.

"Don't say it, I have to go back and report to Your Majesty and Lord Zhang."

Seeing Wang Tun leading the team into the city first, Zuo Feng also entered the city after being silent for a long time.
