Chapter 17: Who Stands Tall
"General Zhu, it's been a long time, of course Zhang Taishou did this in accordance with His Majesty's wishes."
At this time, men in their thirties who came out of the crowd looked at Zhu Jun and said with a smile.
"Li Su is you?" Zhu Jun also met Li Su when he was in Luoyang, and knew that he was Dong Zhuo's person, so he naturally knew him.
"It is here, General Zhu, Zhang Taishou did this, naturally it was in accordance with His Majesty's will, and now the new emperor has been established, and the edict is here." Li Su looked at Zhu Jun and said.
"Edict? Joke, since that's the case, then take out your edict and see if there is a big seal of the jade seal of the country. Zhu Jun sneered.
"Zhang Yang, Dong Zhuo is a rebel and thief, now that Your Majesty has arrived, you are actually in the company of the rebels."
"I have my own consideration for this matter, so let's go and rest for both messengers." Zhang Yang waved his hand.
Li Su was stunned for a moment, "Zhang Yang, this is the same as what we said..."
"Needless to say, I have my own decision." Zhang Yang motioned to Li Su that there was no need to say any more.
When Li Su saw it, he also knew that it was useless to talk more, so he could only retreat first.
After Zhu Jun and Li Su went down, Zhang Yang frowned and asked his Wenchen military generals.
"What do you think of what is happening now? Which Majesty should we listen to? ”
"Lord, Dong Zhuo is powerful, and now he has established Chen Liuwang as the emperor, and there are many officials who echo him, if we offend Dong Zhuo, I am afraid, he will raise troops to commit it at that time."
"No, my lord, although Dong Zhuo is powerful, but his name is not right, he will definitely be the enemy of the world, not a long-term plan."
"Although Dong Zhuo is the enemy of the world, Xiliang Iron Cavalry is brave and good at fighting, and it is more than enough to attack the party, so he can't be offended."
"But the new emperor Chen Liuwang, he doesn't even have a jade seal in his hand, his name is not right, if we do it to the young emperor, it will be no different from Dong Zhuo."
Zhang Yang looked at his subordinates, insisting on their own words, and his heart was also irritable, "Enough, there is no need to say more, since there is a majesty who is coming to our party, then welcome him in first and then make plans." ”
"Yang Chou, when you go to greet Your Majesty, just say that General Zhu I have already arranged, bring more people and horses, and let this Your Majesty see our party and military prestige." Zhang Yang looked at Yang Chou on the side and ordered.
At this time, Liu Wei and the others were only half a day's journey away from joining the party.
"Your Majesty, this General Zhu hasn't come back yet, is something wrong?" Lu Zhi saw that Zhu Jun had not come back at this time, so he asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, General Zhu Jun is fine, and the most I think is that he will be put under house arrest by Zhang Yang." Liu replied.
As long as he is not dead, it is impossible for Zhang Yang to attack Zhu Jun, he can be too guarded, Zhang Yang is not a fool, even if he is confused, his subordinates must not be confused.
"He dares, General Zhu is His Majesty's envoy." Ding Guan said angrily.
"Your Majesty, if that's the case, then do we still want to go to the party?" Huangpu Song frowned.
"Naturally, I want to go, General Zhu is already in the party, so I naturally want to go." Liu Wei smiled confidently.
After about an hour of marching, the front was dusty, and the first general led a lot of cavalry towards Liu Wei, and the military flag was written in black on a white background.
"Your Majesty, there are a lot of cavalry in front, and it seems that they are flamboyant people." Huang Zhong naturally found out about the situation in front of him, so he immediately reported to Liu Bian.
"I'd like to see what tricks he plays." Liu Wei stood in front of people, Huang Zhong on the left and Wang Yue on the right.
"Who's coming? Don't report your name yet? Wang Yue scolded the comer.
"I am Yang Chou, the general under Zhang Taishou, and I specially came to greet Your Majesty." Yang Chou immediately stepped forward, and did not have any intention of getting off the horse, but said a little proudly.
"Since you're here to pick me up? Then why don't you dismount and salute? Liu Wei said coldly.
"Your Majesty, the general is outside, and if the military order is not accepted, the last general will not dismount." Yang Chou said proudly.
He looked around at Liu Wei and the others, but there were only a hundred fighters, and besides, Zhang Yang let him come to Liwei.
"A good general is outside, and the military order is not subject to it, since this is the case, then don't blame me." Liu Wei said.
He now understands what Zhang Yang sent Yang Chou to do, that is, Liwei.
If you want to Liwei, then let's see, who is Liwei, Liu Wei sneered in his heart.
"Hansheng, I have heard that your archery skills are excellent, why don't you show me a hand and let me take a look." Liu Wei looked at Huang Zhong and smiled.
Huang Zhong naturally understood what Liu Wei meant, he glanced at Yang Chou, and then stepped out, "Your Majesty has an order, and the general should obey it." ”
Huang Zhong took the bow and arrow, but before Yang Chou could react, the departure from the string had already broken through the air and went directly towards Yang Chou.
The off-string arrow shot directly at Yang Chou's helmet, Yang Chou was immediately shocked, took off the helmet, and the arrow was on this tassel root.
Yang Chou was shocked, this is a shooting helmet, if he shoots someone, he will already be dead.
"General Yang, can you still get off the horse now?" Liu Wei looked at Yang Chou's frightened appearance and said coldly, this is exactly the effect he wants.
Yang Chou wanted to say something, but when he saw Huang Zhong with a bow and arrows on the side, he moved his throat and subconsciously touched his head.
Then he turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and saluted, "The last general will participate in Your Majesty, it is the last general who is rude." ”
Liu Wei didn't pay attention to it, but glanced at the cavalry brought by Yang Chou, and because of his gaze, those cavalrymen all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look directly.
Yang Chou immediately understood, "I haven't seen Your Majesty yet." ”
"See Your Majesty." All the soldiers said in unison.
Liu Wei nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, and wanted to take advantage of himself, but he was too tender.
Liu Wei just wanted Yang Chou to know that even if it was Liwei, he Yang Chou couldn't kill him, the emperor, but with Huang Zhong by his side, as long as he had the ability, it would be easy to kill him.
"General Yang, get up." Liu Wei looked at Yang Chou and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yang Chou got up and thanked him.
At this time, he realized that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't know if it was due to Liu Wei's might or Huang Zhong's fright.
Liu Wei glanced at the cavalry behind Yang Chou, "General Yang has a good way of governing the army, and these cavalry seem to be quite imposing, but remember, there are still etiquettes that cannot be forgotten." ”
hit a stick and gave a sweet date, so Liu Wei deliberately praised Yang Chou.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yang Chou responded.
"I came all the way, but I also met bandits, thieves heard the name of General Yang, scattered and fled, you can see the power of the general, the party is thanks to the general,"
"The last general doesn't dare to be, Your Majesty should go into the city with the last general." Yang Chou was naturally happy in his heart, but he was still modest.
Liu Wei nodded, and he naturally saw Yang Chou's delight.
"Let's get out of the way." Liu Wei said.
Xun Yu was on the side, taking in all this, and admired Liu Wei even more in his heart.
"Your Majesty's plan, admiration, and elevation of Yang Chou is to belittle Zhang Yang, and Yang Chou will definitely not succumb to Zhang Yang when the time comes." Xun Yu said softly on the side.
"It seems that he still can't hide it from Gongda, but this matter still needs to be planned, since Zhang Yang is not respectful, then there is no need for him to continue to do it." Liu Wei said.
After about half an hour of marching, the Shangdang city was finally revealed.
At this time, the gate of Shangdang City was wide open, and Zhang Yang and his subordinates stood in front of the city gate.
Liu Wei naturally saw that Zhang Yang and others, starting from Liwei, he no longer had the heart to recover Zhang Yang.
"Minister, the party is too guarded and public, and leads everyone to greet Your Majesty." When Liu Wei and the others came to the city gate, Zhang Yang saluted as if he had seen Liu Wei.
"Get up." Liu Wei looked at Zhang Yang and the others and said.
He already understood that Zhang Yang was just putting on a show, but it didn't matter, it was enough to have these.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister has missed the welcome, please don't blame Your Majesty."
"It's okay, I am very relieved to be greeted by General Yang." Liu Wei said with a smile, and after speaking, he deliberately glanced at Yang Chou.
Zhang Yang glanced at Yang Chou and seemed a little displeased, but quickly covered it up and said with a smile, "He's just acting on orders." ”
Liu Wei didn't continue to dwell on this topic, he looked at the people who came to greet him, but there was no Zhu Jun, he immediately said, "Zhang Taishou is loyal, I know clearly, Zhang Taishou, what about General Zhu Jun?" ”
"General Zhu Jun, I have worked hard all the way, and the minister has arranged a place for General Zhu Jun to live, so he must be resting." Zhang Yang replied.
"That's really heartfelt, Zhang Taishou, I don't know who Dong Zhuo sent this time?" Liu Wei suddenly turned his words and looked at Zhang Yangdao.
Zhang Yang was stunned, how could Liu Wei know that someone had reported the news? For a moment, the atmosphere became a little weird.
