Chapter Twenty-Nine: Liu Xie
The Son of Heaven has arrived! A piece of cake. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Let's go back to Xuzhou!"
After waiting in Chang'an for two days, 30,000 soldiers had already arrived, Zhang Min asked Chen Qun to invite the Son of Heaven into the carriage, erected the flag, and left Chang'an all the way. He wanted to secretly take the Son of Heaven back to Xuzhou, but all the civil and military officials let Guo Yan rob him, in order to let the princes of the world know that the Son of Heaven is in his hands, he can only show off his might, otherwise after a few days Xuzhou suddenly appears an emperor, it is inevitable that people will doubt, if Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others will find a royal descendant at will and establish themselves as the Son of Heaven, then they will be busy in vain!
"My lord, there are many people behind you, do you want to disperse them?" Chen Qun rode a bantam horse and came up.
After occupying Chang'an, Zhang Min opened the treasury and took out the only bit of grain and grass left in the treasury, leaving enough for the army, and the rest were distributed to the people in Chang'an City.
"Let them follow, stay here, you will starve to death."
Another reason why Li urged and Guo Yan to fight was that they didn't have enough to eat! They have a total of 100,000 troops to support, but the Xiliang army is not in production, and the locust plague that occurred last year is even worse, even the food for the emperor is rotten stinky meat, and there is enough to take care of the people in the city, and the entire Chang'an City has no place to buy food if there is money! Seeing that the Xuzhou army that came out of nowhere was easy to speak, they actually distributed food, and some of the people of Chang'an, who couldn't survive, chose to follow behind the army.
"But they are moving too slowly, if they take them with them, it will take two months to return to Xuzhou, not to mention that it will take two months, the time is too long, I am afraid that there will be changes on the way!" Chen Qun looked at the team that had slowed down significantly, and was a little worried.
"Ziyi, come here!" Zhang Min thought about it for a moment and waved to Tai Shici, who was guarding next to the carriage of the Son of Heaven behind.
"My lord, what's the matter?" Tai Shi Ci urged him to step forward immediately.
Zhang Min whispered something in his ear, and Tai Shici nodded in understanding, and left the brigade with 10,000 horses.
The army had been walking for two days and had just left the border of Chang'an.
"Changwen, how many people are coming?"
"It has been roughly counted that there are more than 80,000 people, most of whom are old and weak." Chen Qun still had a bitter face, and had some opinions on Zhang Min's behavior with the people, but he was helpless.
"Why didn't Guo Yan and the others chase after them?" Zhang Min asked casually.
"I'm afraid he is busy gathering Li Xuan's men, but he has no intention of chasing." Chen Qun glanced back, "On the way, I heard many times that Guo Yan wanted to kill the Son of Heaven and replace him, presumably the lord took the Son of Heaven away, and he didn't care at all." ”
After walking for two more days, the army had already entered the territory of Yuzhou, Guo Yan really didn't lead his troops to chase after him, so that Zhang Min breathed a sigh of relief, Tai Shici also rushed over from behind, he ambushed several times along the way, and returned empty-handed.
Zhang Min relaxed a little, and in order to speed up the speed, he asked Tai Shici to take 10,000 soldiers to guard outside, and sandwiched the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses between the people, taking turns to carry the old man and children.
It took another month and a half, and the army passed through Yingchuan, Runan and other places without danger and returned to Xuzhou.
He didn't know that Cao Cao was sweeping Yuzhou with soldiers and horses at this time. Yingchuan and Runan have been taken one after another, if you take a little slower, you may just meet Cao Jun!
"My lord, some time ago, the last general saw a large group of people passing by here, under the banner of General Shi Anbei of Xuzhou." Xu Chu, who had just taken refuge in Cao Cao, talked about what he saw and heard a few days ago.
"Zhang Mengxuan!" Cao Cao was taken aback, "Isn't he still in Xuzhou?" ”
"I'm not afraid that the lord will know, two days ago his team passed by here, and the last general almost went to him, but I heard that he copied a family like mine in Xuzhou, so he didn't dare to go, I also looked at it at the time, it was indeed under the banner of General Anbei, and there was a dragon flag in the middle!" …,
If Zhang Min knew that this strong man named Xu Chu originally planned to defect to him, but missed it, he would definitely beat his chest.
"Putting up a dragon flag? Does he want to rebel? Cao Cao was even more surprised.
"Big things are not good!" Guo Jia touched his head and said with a wry smile: "Why is Zhang Mengxuan always waiting for me everywhere!" ”
"Feng Xiao, why do you say that?"
"Lord, if my guess is correct, the Xuzhou army stationed at the border is not led by Zhang Mengxuan himself at all, he has already taken his soldiers and horses around Yuzhou, went straight to Chang'an, and robbed the Son of Heaven!"
"Son of Heaven?" Cao Cao was puzzled for a while, "What is the Son of Heaven doing?" ”
"Why don't you think about it!"
"Coerce the Son of Heaven!" Cao Cao didn't say the last few words, and quickly stopped.
"I wanted to wait for Yanzhou to settle down, and then suggest that the lord do such things, but now Zhang Mengxuan has already taken the lead, and it's too late!"
Cao Cao looked up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, for a while, he suddenly smiled: "The Son of Heaven is in hand, it may not be a good thing!" What's more, the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty have been exhausted, and who among the princes in the world still listens to the orders of the imperial court? If he wants to be that budding bird, he has to ask Yuan Benchu if he agrees first, and I'll wait and see what happens! ”
"What the lord said is very true!" Guo Jia picked up the wine jug and took a big sip, "Now that the grain and grass are ready, let's go back to Yanzhou quickly, subdue the tiger first, and then turn back to deal with Zhang Mengxuan, the little fox!" ”
Zhang Min, who had just rushed back to Pengcheng with the army, would definitely not admit that he was some kind of animal, and he was thinking that the Assassin Mansion was deserted, and now he just put the Son of Heaven in it, so he had a companion.
"You don't need to build any more bedrooms, just change the plaque of my Thorn Mansion, and it will be used, how big a place can he live for a child!" Zhang Min took the fifteen-year-old son of heaven Liu Xie and asked him by the way: "You said yes, right?" ”
"The general is right, the house is too big and it will be deserted." Liu Xie is quite well-behaved, this emperor with a rough throne has long been accustomed to obeying other people's orders, from Dong Zhuo, to Wang Yun, to Li Xuguo Yan, and now to the Anbei general Zhang Min, the only difference is that Zhang Min seems to be a better talker, and he has never been embarrassed by himself along the way.
"Lord Thorn Shi, people's words are terrifying!" Mi Zhen glared at Zhang Min fiercely.
"Okay, okay!" Zhang Min chose to compromise, thinking about if he was in the same house as the Son of Heaven, although the house was so big and far away, there was always a suspicion of blasphemy, "In this way, separate the Thorn Mansion, leave two rooms in the back for me to live in, and give the rest to our emperor, this is always okay, right?" ”
Mi Zhen looked at Liu Xie, then at Zhang Min, and squeezed out two words from between her teeth: "Yes!" ”
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, I'll take the Son of Heaven to see where he lives first!" Zhang Min patted Liu Xie's shoulder, "Let's go!" ”
After walking far, he turned around and ordered: "The 80,000 people I brought back, you have all settled them properly, and the porridge that I have drunk for more than a month is all mine!" ”
didn't wait for Mi Zhen to reply, he took Liu Xie into the Assassin's Mansion.
"How can a general use a woman as an officer? And it's still a dignified position! After getting along for more than a month on the road, Liu Xie saw that Zhang Min was not as brutal as Dong Zhuo, Guo Yan and others, and gradually became bolder, and dared to ask some small questions.
"There is a precedent for this, but I didn't use a woman as an official first!" Zhang Min laughed.
"I have also read all the history books, but I have never seen a woman as an official, and the general lies!"
Zhang Min smiled slyly, "Then let me ask you, is your mother an official?" The entire palace is managed by her, and the women of the whole world take her as an example, isn't her old man the biggest female official in the world? ”
Liu Xie glared, had nothing to say, and after a long time, he held back a sentence: "General, you are afraid of guilt!" ”
"Huh?" Zhang Min touched his head, afraid of guilt? Henpecked? Don't we don't have a wife yet? "Where do you start?" …,
"I've seen it all, you didn't dare to look directly at that female taishou just now!" Liu Che scholar Zhang Min smiled cheaply.
"you, how do you know what fear is!" Zhang Min was slightly taller than the Son of Heaven and rubbed his head with his hand. Fifteen-year-old baby, just graduated from junior high school, at most I missed a few little girls who transferred to other schools, where do I know what it is to be afraid of inside.
"Of course I understand, I already have a queen!" The Son of Heaven straightened his chest.
"Huh!" Zhang Min was stunned, "Where is your queen?" ”
Liu Xie lowered his head and didn't speak, at that time, the chaotic army was scattered, and where could he still find someone.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Zhang Min also had a headache when he saw that he didn't speak, "At that meeting in Chang'an, if you say it, I can still send someone to help you find it, now it's okay, you really become a loner!" ”
"I didn't dare say it at the time!" Liu Xie's eyes puffed out.
"Okay, it's all my fault, we'll call back to Chang'an next year, and then help you get the queen back!"
"Seriously?"
"I don't talk fake!"
"Then what do you want?" Liu Xie looked at Zhang Min, "Is it a general?" Or is it Da Sima? ”
"I don't dare to sit on the position of the general, and the big Sima is all old men, do you want to make me a hussar general? Huo Quai, General Huo is my idol! Zhang Min didn't hide it and said it nakedly.
"Champion Hou?" Liu Xie looked at Zhang Min in a daze, "Do you want to be the next champion?" ”
"Why not!" Zhang Min smiled heroically: "General Huo's sentence 'The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home!'" It is a model for my generation to learn, and Feng Wolf Juxu makes me and other younger generations proud, and the husband should be like this! ”
"You're different from them!" Liu Xie suddenly laughed, and the fifteen-year-old laughed so treacherously.
"Laugh at your size, although I know that I can't even compare to a toe of General Huo, but you can't be any better, I think that your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, when Emperor Wu was in power, the world was called a minister, and the Quartet came to the court! Look at you now, even the queen has been lost, and even Chang'an can't get out of the country to say a word! Zhang Min didn't save him any face.
"They all say that I am exhausted, don't you think so, general?" Liu Xie said and said, tears flowed out.
"At the beginning of Wang Mang's rebellion, the green forest, the red eyebrows revolted, the world was in chaos, and Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu recovered the world with his cloth body!" Zhang Min clenched his fists, "Don't you have that ambition?" ”
