Chapter 304: Sending Troops

When the news that Lu Longzhai was broken and Bao Geng was killed in battle and was beheaded and hung in Lulongzhai for public display was transmitted back to Luoyang, Chen Mo was taking Zhao Yun to talk to Lu Bu about the border.

"Bang~" The delicate wine bud was pressed on the table by Chen Mo fiercely, especially when he heard that Bao Geng's head was cut off and hung in the city tower to show the public, Chen Mo only felt a breath rushing to his brain, for the first time in his life, he almost lost his mind.

"If I don't take revenge, I swear not to be a man!" Chen Mo pressed violently and stood up.

"Lord, please fight!" Lu Bu stood up and said coldly.

"Well, I'll take Karasuma personally in this battle!" Chen Mo nodded, looked at Dian Wei and said, "Order someone to inform the ministers to go to the court, Fengxian, you also prepare and follow me to the court." ”

Lu Bu is now a general, above the court today, his status is only below the three dukes, and in terms of official position, he is considered a military general second only to Chen Mo in the military.

An hour later, the Garter Hall was up.

Liu Neng looked at Chen Mo and said with a reluctant face: "The general has just returned from the expedition to Jizhou, and he has not yet rested. ”

"Your Majesty, there are three princes in the court to assist, and there are Wenyou and Gongda to help, so you can be worry-free." Chen Mo frowned and bowed.

"That's not what I meant." Liu Neng shook his head, and after a while, he looked at Chen Mo and said: "General, if it falls apart today, it is already restless, I know that Bao Geng is a close confidant of the general, and now it is only because of the personal grudge of the general alone, it is quite unwise to provoke Hu people for no reason." ”

"Your Majesty's words are right!" Dahonglu Zhang You said indifferently: "General, since Your Majesty entered Luoyang, the general has been reckless, tyrannical, and always good at war, and now he is even more instigating border wars, and if this continues, the Han will die!" ”

Chen Mo turned his head, glanced at Zhang You, then at Liu Neng, and suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty also thinks the same way?" ”

"This ......" Liu Neng smiled awkwardly: "Zhang Qing may be a little more intense, but after all, it is also for the good of the court." ”

"For the sake of the court?" Chen Mo glanced at Zhang You and said, "Da Honglu can know where Lulongzhai is?" ”

"It's a border fortress." Zhang You naturally knew about Lu Longzhai, but he only knew that as for the importance...... It is seen in the book, and he can recite it, but it is difficult for him to ask him to say how important it is.

"Lulongzhai is a fortress to defend Karasuma, if the Karasuma people want to invade the south on a large scale, Lulongzhai can be said to be a must-pass place, as soon as Lulongzhai is broken, the Karasuma people will pour into Liaoxi, Yuyang and other places like the water that bursts the embankment, and hundreds of thousands of dawns are robbed, do you call this a personal grudge?" Chen Mosen's cold gaze fell on Zhang You.

"This ......," Zhang Yu said.

"You eat all day long, you don't know the weight of the military plane, why do you have the face to make a big deal here?" Chen Mo took a step forward towards Zhang You: "It's a great Honglu, you need to negotiate with the envoy of Fanbang, you don't even know why the border fortress of our army is important, how did you become this great Honglu?" I sent you to discuss with Fanbang, I'm afraid you won't know if you sell the country. ”

"You ......" Zhang You glared at Chen Mo, although Chen Mo has always been the sole power, but Chen Mo himself treats people gently, rarely such aggressive actions, now Chen Mo is suddenly so intense, although there is nothing angry and hideous, but it is so sinking his face, but it makes the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, including Lu Bu and other fierce generals, feel depressed, and dare not look directly at his front, let alone say that Zhang You is a literati, just being looked at by Chen Mo, he can't speak.

"Your Majesty, Da Honglu is a matter of national body, you should know honor and disgrace, like such a shameless person, the minister thinks that if he continues to serve as the position of Da Honglu, it will really damage the face of my Han, and the minister thinks that he should choose another virtuous person!" Chen Mo turned around and saluted Liu Neng: "Please abolish the position of Zhang You Dahonglu if Your Majesty abolishes!" ”

"General, it's not so much~" Liu Neng's face was a little stiff.

"The Three Princes and the Nine Secretaries are the example of virtue in the imperial court, how can such an immoral and incompetent person take on the heavy responsibility of the Nine Secretaries?" Chen Mo said indifferently: "Please give an edict to Your Majesty!" ”

"Your Majesty, please give an edict!" Li Ru came out of the queue and bowed.

"Your Majesty, please give an edict!" Lu Bu took a step forward and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, please give an edict!" Full of favors, bow down.

"Your Majesty, please give an edict!" More and more people came out of the ranks, asking Liu Neng to issue an edict to abolish Zhang You's position as a big honglu, as for the other courtiers, this time it can be seen that Chen Mo is taking Zhang You Liwei, this time the northern expedition to Karasuma, it seems that Chen Mo is imperative, in the face of Zhang You's gaze for help, a group of courtiers looked at their noses and noses.

If you want to block it, find a good reason, what kind of expropriation? It's a troubled time now, big brother, Chen Mo is all right.

As for the reckless use of force...... Even if it is, what can you do? The imperial court is all set up by Chen Mo, the existing territory of the imperial court is beaten down by others, Chen Mo doesn't care about you on weekdays, that is because people are polite, if you say it in public now, it is to kick your nose in the face, at this time, who dares to persuade?

"Your Majesty, please give an edict!" Chen Mo saluted Liu Neng again.

"What does the Lieutenant think?" Liu Neng looked at Yang Biao in embarrassment.

The corners of Yang Biao's mouth twitched, this matter had nothing to do with him, but Liu Neng named him, and he could only say it, and then saluted: "The minister thinks that what Da Honglu said is indeed inappropriate, and as for how to deal with it, it is up to His Majesty to decide." ”

"Then ......" Liu Neng sighed, Chen Mo's courtesy to him on weekdays really made Liu Neng feel that the court could call the shots, but now when there was a difference of opinion, Liu Neng could see that it had not changed at all, from beginning to end, this court was Chen Mo's final say, and he asked himself to give himself face.

looked at Da Honglu and said: "Zhang Aiqing, it seems that Qing is indeed not suitable for this position, it is better to ......"

"If you don't do this, you will go out with the army, and let him see how the neighbors he said treat my Han people, and see if this expedition to Karasuma is wrong!" Chen Mo said indifferently.

"Just according to the general's words." Liu Neng glanced at Zhang You, whose face was pale, sighed, and followed the northern expedition, even if he didn't know the hardships of the north, he also knew that the war was cruel, and he went north with the army, and whether Zhang You could come back is still a matter of words.

But who can be blamed for this?

"Your Majesty, in this way, the minister will go and prepare for the dispatch of troops." Chen Mo saluted Liu Neng.

"It's so good, the matter of going out on the expedition will be all decided by the general, and if you have nothing else to do, you will retreat." Liu Neng felt a little tired, so dignified, a big Honglu who stood on his side was gone, and he couldn't say anything yet.

At that moment, the ministers retreated, and Chen Mo returned to the General's Mansion with Lu Bu, Xun You, Xu Shu, Li Ru, Yang Xiu and others.

Above the main hall, Gao Shun and others also arrived one after another.

"My lord, although this expedition is imperative, the rear must be guarded against." Li Ru said the most idly.

Although Chen Mo has the general trend now, this general trend is not obvious, just like Yuan Shao in the past, it also occupies the general trend, what is the result? If you are not careful at this time, I am afraid that Cao Cao will inevitably take the opportunity to attack.

Chen Mo nodded: "I invite you to come today, just to discuss this matter with you, this time the troops are different from the past, the opponent is the Hu people, I am not familiar with it, Xu Huang, Yu Sheng, and Wuyi cannot move without permission, Gao Shun and Cui Geng need to be responsible for the defense of the Beijing Division, and they must not move lightly." ”

In this way, almost all of Chen Mo's henchmen and generals have to stay.

"Bong-first." Chen Mo looked at Lu Budao.

"The last general!" Lu Bu got up.

"I know that Fengxian is the best at cavalry, and he fights with Xianbei all the year round, and is familiar with the grassland terrain, so this time, you lead an army alone, five thousand cavalry, and the generals of the army are also those generals under your command, the area of the Gu River is a line of defense operated by Bao Geng before his death, and last year due to the lack of troops, many Xianbei people infiltrated, you have come out of here, by the way, those Xianbei people have been driven back, and then moved to the grassland in the direction of White Wolf Mountain, how to fight, how to fight, you are in charge, I will not interfere, but there is one thing that needs to be guaranteed before me." Chen Mo looked at Lu Budao.

"Please command, my lord!" Lu Bu said excitedly, leading an army alone, and it doesn't matter how he fights, he is all up to himself, which is extremely high trust.

"Badun, I will kill him with my own hands, if you meet him, I will live!" Chen Mo said in a deep voice, he only has this one request, he will repay Bao Geng's revenge with his own hands.

"Rest assured, this battle will be a big deal." Lu Bu immediately assured.

"As for the rest of the accompanying generals this time, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun are my escorts, and they can accompany them, in addition, Ma Chao, Pang De, and Zhang Xiu are good at riding and fighting, when they go out with the army, what else do you propose?" Chen Mo looked at the generals and said.

This expedition to Karasuma, cavalry combat is indispensable, and there are only a few cavalry generals under Chen Mo's command, of course, now Tai Shi Ci is also counted, but Tai Shi Ci is guarding the clouds, and it is impossible to transfer it.

"My lord, I can guarantee a few people to go out with my lord." Li Ru said with a smile.

"Oh? Who? Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"My lord, among the generals in Jizhou, there are quite talents, and in the past, the Yuan family and Karasuma were quite friendly, and among the generals in Jizhou, there are many people who are familiar with Karasuma's tactics, and they can go north with the lord." Li Ru said with a smile.

Chen Mo nodded, among the generals in Jizhou, there were indeed many powerful figures, and he nodded at the moment and said: "If it weren't for Wen You's reminder, I would have forgotten that since this is the case, I will recruit the four generals to follow, Gao Lan, Zhang He, and Han Qiong, and let me see the ability of the Jizhou generals." ”

After these generals surrendered in Jizhou, when Chen Mo returned to the dynasty, he took these people with him and returned to Luoyang together.

The plan has been decided, Chen Mo asked Lu Bu to lead a group of soldiers and horses to Yuyang, in addition, Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang Xiu three generals each led 2,000 cavalry to Youzhou first, the Hu people who entered the customs were all driven out of the pass, to protect the people in Youzhou, and at the same time ordered to mobilize grain and grass along the way, at the beginning of February, Chen Mo led the Zhao, Gao Lan, Zhang He, Han Qiong four generals and 5,000 elites out of Luoyang, all the way to Youzhou, in Yecheng to meet the assembled 40,000 Jizhou troops, all the way to Liaoxi.
