Chapter 30: Ending War with War

Chang'an, Chengming Palace.

Jia Xu handed over the letter written by Lu Bu, and when Liu Xie, who was on the dragon chair, read the letter, he stared at Jia Xu under him angrily, "Hahaha, it's ridiculous!" In this way, Wen Hou led his army to leave Chang'an, not because he wanted to rebel, but because he wanted to do it? ”

"Your Majesty is wise! Wen Hou left Chang'an, not because of rebellion! If Marquis Wen really has the heart of rebellion, I am afraid that it is not the minister who is standing here today, but Marquis Wen himself! ”

Jia Xu said.

His words made the anger on Liu Xie's face disappear by three points. Jia Xu was right, Lu Bu just led the army to leave Chang'an, saying that it was a rebellion, but it was not counted. As Jia Xu said, if Lu Bu really wants to rebel, I'm afraid this Chang'an is already in Lu Bu's hands.

"But Marquis Wen led the army to leave Chang'an without my permission, what do you explain!"

Liu Xieyu asked.

"Your Majesty! Wen Hou led the army to leave Chang'an because he was eager to return home! Your Majesty should know that most of Wen Hou's subordinates are soldiers of the state. Now the state is not peaceful, traitors are everywhere, and those foreign races are taking advantage of the court's inattention, one after another, invade, kill my people, and take my Han land! This Wen Hou's soldiers can't bear it, Wen Hou can't bear it, and His Majesty can't bear it! Wen Hou went here precisely to quell the rebellion in the state, stop the invasion of foreign races, and raise the prestige of the Han Dynasty! ”

"Then why didn't Marquis Wen ask me for an edict to put down the rebellion?"

"On the way back to Chang'an, Wen Hou was harmed by people! I'm afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, so I don't say goodbye! Moreover, Wen Hou considered that he was leading a large army outside, which could deter ill-intentioned people! If His Majesty is persecuted by some villain in the future, just an edict, and Marquis Wen will definitely lead the army to the king to eliminate the traitors for His Majesty. ”

No matter what Liu Xie's question is, Jia Xu can be said to be the right answer. And the answer he said also made Liu Xie's anger towards Lu Bu dissipate by three points.

Speaking of which, there are still too many open and secret battles in Chang'an! Although Liu Xie was extremely angry about Lu Bu's attack this time, and even said that the murderers would be severely punished, it was just talk. Lu Bu was disheartened and left alone, which was nothing. But what really made Liu Xie angry was that Lu Bunai did not say goodbye, and even plotted against the grain and grass of Yiwu! After Lu Bu left Chang'an, Chang'an was dominated by Wang Yun's family, and I am afraid that there will be another Dong thief.

At this time, Liu Xie finally knew the importance of Lu Bu! As long as Lu Bu is in Chang'an, Wang Yun will naturally not be able to become Dong Zhuo. But if Lu Bu leaves, this Wang Yun is not only in charge of the government, but also in charge of the military, which makes Liu Xie a little panicked, afraid that Dong Zhuo's experience will happen again.

Of course, for Liu Xie's worries, it was naturally difficult for Jia Xu, a top strategist, to dissipate most of Liu Xie's anger towards Lu Bu in a few words, and he even wanted to reward Lu Bu as the pastor of the state and promote the prestige of the Han Dynasty!

But when the news came to Situ Mansion, Wang Yun was furious, "And the state pastor!" No way! What kind of confusing soup did this Jia Wenhe pour into His Majesty, such a villain, he must not be spared! ”

Immediately, Wang Yun went to meet Liu Xie.

Not only that, Wang Yun even put Jia Xu in prison, wanting to kill him as soon as possible.

It's a pity that after seeing Wang Yun's strong attitude, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, secretly summoned Li Su, the ruling Jinwu, into the palace, and it is rumored that Liu Xie and Li Su have been discussing in the palace for a long time, and when Li Su left the palace, his face was full of joy.

A few days after Lu Bu left Chang'an, Zhongmu Zhu Jun led the remnants of the army back to Chang'an, and Li Dao Guo Yan and others, who broke Zhu Jun in Zhongmu, had a great momentum, gathering tens of thousands of Xiliang elites in Zhongmu, threatening to counterattack Chang'an and avenge the Taishi Dong Zhuo. In the name of Qingjun's side, he asked Liu Xie to kill Situ Wang Yun and correct Dong Zhuo's name!

Yanzhou.

After Cao Cao broke the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, he chose to surrender his troops to form an elite, called the "Qingzhou Army". In Qingzhou, the soldiers and horses were vigorously trained, and they were in the limelight for a while. However, after the fame, there was also a lot of trouble. After breaking the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, although he gained prestige, it also aroused Yuan Shao's jealousy, and also aroused the hostility of other princes.

"Lord Yu, this is Yuan Jizhou's letter!"

The soldier presented a letter.

Cao Cao, who was looking at the map on the table, took the letter, quickly glanced at it, stroked his short beard, and frowned slightly.

"Wen Ruo, what can you guess about the letter from Yuan Shao?"

Cao Cao looked at a scribe who was writing official documents on the table and dealing with government affairs, and chuckled.

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xun Yu put down the bamboo slip in his hand, "I don't know." ”

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have already fought! This Yuan Shu sent people to Gongsun Chan for help, and now Gongsun Chan sent Liu Bei to garrison Gaotang and stationed in the plain. Tao Qian sent people to be stationed in Fagan County, and Yuan Shao wrote to me to ask me to lead an army to pacify these people. ”

Cao Cao chuckled.

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xun Yu frowned slightly, "Duke Ming has just run out of troops against Qingzhou, and now is the time to recuperate, so don't make a big move." ”

"What Wen Ruo said is good, but this time, it's different! Yuan Benchu had just defeated Gongsun Zan in the Battle of Longcuo and gained a foothold in Jizhou! But Yuan Shu, Tao Qian and Gongsun Zhan attacked Yuan Benchu, this battle, even if I don't want to go out of the army, I can't do it! ”

Cao Cao sighed.

He and Yuan Shao were allies, although Cao Cao was dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's actions in the battle against Dong, but the relationship between the two of them was still extremely cordial. Not to mention that he Cao Cao was able to pacify Yanzhou, but he relied on Yuan Shao's help, and Yuan Shao even provided grain and grass. If he doesn't go out of the army this time, what will Yuan Shao think?

"Then Ming Gong wants to lead the army in person?"

Xun Yu asked.

"Not bad!"

Cao Cao stared at Xun Yu, and bowed to Xun Yu with both hands, "Wen Ruo, I will lead the army to quell the chaos, and this Yanzhou will be entrusted to Wen Ruo!" ”

"Ming Gong rest assured!"

Xun Yu replied firmly.

"Good!"

Cao Cao stood up and smiled at Xun Yu.

Entrusted with Cao Cao's heavy responsibility, Xun Yu did not dare to treat him lightly, and after saluting Cao Cao, he also retreated. And after Xun Yu retreated, another literati wearing a high crown walked in. He is Cao Cao's current military advisor, and he is loyal to Xi Zhicai!

"Zhicai is finally here!"

Seeing Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao was overjoyed!

"What is the matter with the Lord summoning Zhicai?"

Xi Zhong looked at Cao Cao.

Cao Cao told all the things about Yuan Shao to Xi Zhong. Xi Zhong listened and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, lord! Since Yuan Jizhou wanted the lord to send troops, the lord sent troops. Our army is holding on to a great victory, and the troops are overpowered, and no one can stop them! Joining forces with Yuan Jizhou, he will definitely be able to defeat Yuan Shugongsun Zan Taoqian and other coalition forces. ”

"But Wen Ruo thinks that today should be recuperated and suspended!"

Cao Cao's light flashed and he sighed.

"The lord and Yuan Jizhou are allies, if you don't send troops in this battle, you will be criticized, and Yuan Jizhou will hate it! Now there are strong enemies outside Yanzhou, and there are remnants of the Yellow Turban in the chaos, if you want to recuperate, you can only stop the war with war! ”
