Li Zhenke knew why Lu Zhi was escorted to the prisoner car, although Lu Zhi won consecutive battles in the north against Zhang Jiao, the army that resisted Zhang Jiao could not develop outward, so Zhang Jiao was forced to lead the army to retreat to Guangzong County and occupy the city. When Lu Zhi's army arrived at Guangzong City, there was no progress, and it could not attack Guangzong for a long time. At this time, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty happened to send Xiaohuangmen Zuo Feng to Lu Zhi's army to inspect the work on behalf of the imperial court, and someone persuaded Lu Zhi to bribe Zuo Feng, but Lu Zhi refused, Lu Zhi said: "There is no grain and grass in the army, what will I give him a bribe." In this way, Zuo Feng did not get any benefit in front of Lu Zhi, so he held a grudge, and after returning to Luoyang, he slandered Emperor Ling of Han and said: "The minister sees that Guangzong County is easy to break, but Lu Zhi does not move, does he want to wait for God to kill Zhang Jiao?" When the mediocre Emperor Ling of Han heard this, he was furious and issued an edict to remove Lu Zhi from his post and escort him back to Luoyang in a prisoner's car, where he was sentenced to life imprisonment (commutation of the death penalty of the first degree).

Li Zhen was familiar with the Three Kingdoms and knew that although Lu Zhi was escorted back to Luoyang, soon after, another large army led by Zuo Zhonglang under the command of Huangfu Song pacified the Yellow Turban Army in Dongjun of Yanzhou, and the imperial court sent Huangfu Song to Jizhou to pacify the Yellow Turban Army. Huangfu Song lived up to expectations and finally returned triumphantly. After Huangfu Song returned to Luoyang, he wrote to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and gave Lu Zhi the credit for pacifying the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou, so Lu Zhi was reinstated and still served as Shangshu.

A few thoughts swirled in Li Zhen's heart, and when he went to the barracks, he tried his best to protect Lu Zhi in front of the generals, so that his reputation could spread in the barracks, so that the soldiers of the Northern Army would recognize him, and he would be able to stand firm in the army. In the future, Lu Zhi will remember his feelings when he is released from prison, and let everyone in the world know that he is not afraid of power and dares to fight for the truth.

Such a thing that kills three birds with one stone, if you really do it, your reputation will be more obvious in the future, and for your own reputation, if you fight again, anyway, this matter will not come to you in the end.

Thinking of not doing it, this matter should not be done sooner or later, Li Zhen thought, and immediately patted his horse and ran towards the camp.

Ten thousand people rushed straight to the camp of Lu Zhi's garrison, and several defenders in Lu Zhi's camp saw the billowing wolf smoke of iron cavalry and flying infantry, and rushed towards the camp and shouted: "Stop. ”

Li Zhen took out the token from his arms and threw it to a person, shouting: "Look at it, I am General Fenwei, Liaoxi is too guarded by Li Zhen, and I was ordered to come to help, give way quickly." ”

"It turned out that General Fenwei was disrespectful, and the general had an order, so General Li could be ordered to set up camp next to the big camp by himself, and when Dongzhonglang sent by the imperial court arrived, you were discussing the war on your own." A soldier shouted.

Seeing that time was pressing, Li Zhen ordered the soldiers to rest in place, and he took Zhang Fei, Dian Wei and several personal soldiers to the camp.

When the soldiers in the battalion saw Li Zhen breaking straight into the military tent, they shouted: "The general has an order, and no one is allowed to enter without permission." ”

Li Zhen stopped and sneered: "General, I don't know which general you are talking about?" ”

The soldier lowered his head and said, "Of course it's General Lu, who else can order me to wait." ”

"Why don't I know, I only heard that General Lu Zhi was going to be escorted to Luoyang, and now I am breaking into the barracks and going to rescue General Lu." Li Zhenzhen shouted with words.

"It turns out that you are here to save General Lu, and you are rude." The soldier saluted. Several soldiers around him also hurriedly came over to salute Li Zhen.

Li Zhen hurriedly helped them up one by one and said gently: "What is the situation inside?" “

"Alas! What else, General Lu is now locked in a prisoner car, and we will leave in a while, and we are all trying to see how we can get General Lu out. The crowd chattered.

When many soldiers heard that he was going to be dismissed from his post by His Majesty and escorted back to Luoyang by the prisoner car, they all wanted to hijack the prisoner car and keep Lu Zhi so that he could continue to stay in the camp. But Lu Zhi ordered them: "No one can save him without His Majesty's order, otherwise anyone who violates the order will be killed." Finally, he walked into the prisoner car.

Li Zhen knew that Lu Zhi had a resolute character, a noble character, and often had the ambition to help the people of the world, so he obeyed the will of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and got into the prisoner car by himself.

Nine out of ten loyal ministers of Kuang Fu Sheji are loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, even if they want his life, they will agree without saying a word, and they belong to the kind of monarch who makes his ministers die. But that's fine, I didn't think about really bringing him here, Li Zhen thought.

Li Zhen said: "I can go in now." ”

"General Li, please hurry up, no matter whether the general can go to General Lu or not, the officers and men of our Northern Army will remember General Li's affection."

The soldiers have been fighting with Lu Zhi for several months, and they know Lu Zhi's temper deeply, as long as the decisions he makes are not changeable, but Li Zhen is willing to say a word for Lu Zhi, this kind of affection is still admired by the soldiers.

Li Zhen heard that the guards let him go, so he directly led people to Lu Zhi's big tent, and saw a prisoner car parked in front of the big tent, and there was a person locked on the car. ”

The dozen or so officers and soldiers who came out of Luoyang didn't know who the person in front of them was, and when they heard him yelling at themselves, the officer led by him smiled gloomily and said, "Do you know who we are, so you dare to roar at us, we are ・・・・・・." ”

When Li Zhen heard that he was about to say that he had come on the orders of His Majesty, he hurriedly stepped forward and threw a fist into the mouth of the officer who spoke, preventing him from speaking the words. The officer covered his mouth, pointed at Li Zhen with his finger, and said in a loud voice: "You dare to treat me like this, against you, brothers will escort him up for me." ”

More than a dozen officers and soldiers from Luoyang walked towards Li Zhen's side, preparing to surround him.

Zhang Fei and the others behind Li Zhen boasted forward, tightly guarding Li Zhen in the middle camp, exuding a soaring murderous aura on his body, looking at these people with red eyes, as if as long as he heard Li Zhen's order, he could tear these people into slices.

The officers and soldiers who came out of Luoyang were generally acting as a prestige to the common people, and how could they withstand the evil spirit of the soldiers who had fought hard from the battlefield, and they trembled one by one, and looked at the officers headed by them.

The officer at the head glanced at Li Zhen in shock, secretly swallowed the blood in his mouth, and said: "I am the hundred commander of the Yulin Army, and I came to Guangzong to escort Lu Zhi on the order of His Majesty, and I don't know who the general is. ”

Lu Zhi, who was standing on the prisoner car, had already seen this scene and snorted: "It's a shame that you are still Yulin, and even His Majesty's favorite general, the specially called General Fenwei, doesn't know that he dares to do such a rude thing to him." ”

A few people were even more cold when they heard this, although they were classified as His Majesty's personal soldiers, but some people could not afford to offend, such as this one, in His Majesty's heart, he was a confidant and loved general, and he was deeply favored. The officer at the head hurriedly knelt on the ground, and more than a dozen of his subordinates saw it and hurriedly knelt on the ground together.

Li Zhen ignored these people, came to Lu Zhi's prisoner car, and hurriedly saluted: "General Lu, Li Zhen is one step late, how could the general end up like this." ”

Lu Zhi smiled on the prisoner car: "Hehe, the old man was just killed by a traitor for a while, when the old man returns to Luoyang and lets His Majesty find out about this matter, he can be trapped out of the cage, and he will meet you again on holidays." ”

Li Zhen turned to look at the kneeling officer, and said angrily: "You still don't want me to come over and open the chains for General Lu Zhi and release the prisoner car." ”

The officer trembled and said in horror: "General, don't! This General Lu Zhi was personally ordered by His Majesty, let me wait to escort him back to Luoyang, if this is opened, it will be a prisoner of the imperial court! I hope the general thinks twice! ”

"Hmph, General Li said to let you go, but you dare not let go." A voice came from behind Li Zhen at this time.
