Chapter 194: Surrender Huang Zhong
"Push Huang Zhong up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info," Lu Bu said.
The knife and axe men escorted Huang Zhong to the court, but Huang Zhong stood on the hall and refused to kneel, and several sword and axe men hit him on the crook of the foot but could not force him to kneel.
"Stand down." Lu Bu withdrew his sword and axe hand, and stepped down the steps: "Huang Hansheng is really a husband." β
Huang Zhong glanced at Lu Bu with contempt, and said, "If you want to kill, you will kill, Hugh uses clever words." If you are over fifty years old, how can you stoop to the lord for glory and wealth! β
Lu Bu reprimanded: "The old puppet is old and dizzy, and the people are old and confused? Now that the concubine was poked, Liu Biao, as a relative of the Han family, did nothing, did not raise the flag to level the thief, sat and watched the imperial power of the Son of Heaven fall, the day was not safe, his life was in danger and he had different aspirations. As a minister of the Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven was the general of the auxiliary country, and he was under the secret edict of the Kuang Fu Han family, and he did not dare to slack off for a moment. Open your old eyes and take a look! β
Lu Bu smashed the secret edict of the Son of Heaven on Huang Zhong. He didn't want to advertise the secret edict to the world at this time, he waited for Zhang Liao to occupy Hangu Pass, and paralyzed the princes of the world under the guise of the secret edict, and when the princes of the world thought that he was going to use troops to Xuchang, he took the pass by surprise, and it didn't matter if he was not a loyal minister at that time, anyway, he had already gained a foothold.
A soldier picked up the edict from the ground and unfolded it for Huang Zhong to read. After reading it, Huang Zhong was uneasy.
Lu Bu retreated, went down the steps to untie him, and then bowed and saluted: "Since I was ordered, I have been lamenting all night, I am afraid that the emperor's trust will not work, and I am unable to destroy the traitorous party and restore the society." The public is a loyal and righteous martyr, but he has gone astray and does not distinguish between loyalty and righteousness. You eat Hanlu and be loyal to the Son of Heaven, not a minister of Jingzhou. β
"The old man is stupid, thanks to the enlightenment of General Fuguo, I am willing to repay the Son of Heaven with the body of the old cripple." Huang Zhong bowed down in shame.
"Lao Ji is in the bush, and his ambitions are thousands of miles. Now that the old generals are complementary, the pacification of the Cao thieves is just around the corner. Lu Bu laughed heartily. Huang Zhong is a military general who is easier to fool, as long as he gets on the thief ship now, he can only accept his fate when he finds out that Lu Bu is also a traitor. For example, isn't Xun Yu a loyal minister loyal to the Han family, hasn't he been giving advice to Cao Cao.
Lu Bubiao Zhang Yun is the Taishou of Wancheng, the general of Zhendong, and the Marquis of Anfeng. Lu Bu not only wanted to appease Liu Biao, but also to kill Zhang Yun, Liu Biao was a general in Zhennan, and he deliberately promoted Zhang Yun's official position to an equal footing with Liu Biao, so that Liu Biao would not only not send additional soldiers to An Zhong, but also secretly guard against Zhang Yunwei.
Zhang Yun was stupidly ecstatic and grateful to Lu Bu. Lu Bu is an official appointed by the Son of Heaven to open the government, and the official position of Lu Bu is legitimate.
Lu Bu copied several copies of Yuan Shao's manuscript and secret edict, stamped it with the seal of the auxiliary general, announced it to the world, and raised the banner of rebellion. Countless Pegasus galloped out of the city from Anzhong, spreading the payment of the text all over the world, following Yuan Shao, the world once again set off a wave of criticism of Cao.
In this battle, Lu Bu obtained more than 6,000 elite soldiers in Jingzhou and more than 11,000 pairs of fine armor.
Lu Bumi's edict was transmitted to Xuchang, and the court was furious. Cao Cao had just defeated Yuan Shao at the cost of a crushing victory, and before he could plan to pacify Liu Bei in Xuzhou, he received Lu Bumi's edict, and Cao Cao once again sent thousands of soldiers from Xuchang to Cao Ren in Xiangcheng. Cao Cao looked at the stone tablet growing on the ground in his hand, and did not dare to claim the title of king.
His adviser told him: "This is a trick used by a certain young man to deceive people's hearts. I looked at it carefully, and the countless sprouted beans under the stele were not enough to believe. β
The next day, Lu Bu's army left Anzhong in a mighty way, and Zhang Yun sent him away.
"Report to the lord, Major General Zhang Hu is back."
Lu Bu received a report from Pegasus in the middle of the road. Lu Bu put his mind at ease, he had been worried about the safety of these little guys.
"What about Lu Xun, Gao Chao, and Lu Qiling?" Lu Bu asked.
"Shouchun is too guarded by Chen Ang's Express, and Gao Chao is escorting the grain and grass back. As for Lu Xun and Lu Qiling, I heard that they were retreating from the enemy. β
"No news from them?" Lu Bu panicked in his heart, he looked calm on the surface, but in fact, he cared most about his daughter.
"Haven't received it yet."
When Lu Bu returned to Wancheng, although he was very worried about Lu Qiling's safety, there were some things that he couldn't delay.
"Send someone to build a high platform outside the city, and a certain point will beg the thief." Lu Bu ordered to go down.
All the preparations have been arranged, it is the best time to send troops to the pass, if he misses it, he is afraid that he will not have the opportunity to set foot in the pass in this life.
Lu Bu wanted to go back to his home to visit his family before the expedition, Yan Lin has been strange in the past two months, and Du Xiuniang is about to give birth.
"Report, Xuchang urgently." A fast horse galloped outside the north gate, knocking over countless people who had no time to dodge, and you can imagine how urgent the news was.
"Yanjin Disheng stone stele, on which there is a proverb of 'three kings and auxiliary government, the world is prosperous'. Yuan Shao, who did not want to make progress, heard about the proverbs of Yanjin, and fought for the stele, but was defeated by Cao Cao's tricks, and Cao Cao had transported the stele to Xuchang. "Hosaku will know it all.
"Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xu You, Guo Tu, Judge, and Feng Ji are all wise and resourceful, can't they see through Cao Cao's treacherous scheme?" Lu Bu asked rhetorically.
"My subordinates don't know."
It turned out that Yuan Shao's subordinates were fighting each other, incompatible with each other, and did not want to forge ahead and break the enemy, and they all hoped that the other party would be defeated to prove that they were right, so they fell for Cao Cao's treacherous scheme.
The next day, Lu Bu finally received the news from Chaohu that Lu Xun had defeated Liu Xun and was on his way to Wancheng. Liu Bei went out of Si County and took Shouchun, which had no defenders.
Lu Bu ascended the high platform and read out the payment:
"Since the edict was received, I dare not slack off. Every time I think about it, it's hard to fall asleep. Cao thief slaughtered the minister first, and then poked the concubine, and the heart of the disobedience was known to everyone. After the eunuch of the eunuch, there was no benevolence and virtue in the world and sought a society, and as a minister of the Han Dynasty, he was inseparable from Cao Thief.
Zhang Lu in Hanzhong bewitched the people, and the remnants of poison were no different from Cao thieves. If you want to help the Han room, you have to clear Yuyu. There are 200,000 people with armor, and loyal and righteous people sacrifice their lives to forget their deaths, and help me to be heroic!
The sergeant is tired, but this autumn of the survival of the Son of Heaven has to do it.
Today, the two armies will be sent to the north to attack Cao Cao and Zhang Lu to the west, and if they don't succeed, they will become benevolent! The eldest husband should be an immortal honor when he is alive. β
The 130,000-strong army shouted: "Establish an immortal honor." β
Ji Ling, Xu Xuan and others heard about the secret edict for the first time, it turned out that Lu Bu had a secret edict in his hand, so that Lu Bu's begging for thieves was driven by righteousness, and the morale of his generals was unprecedented.
"The general has sent Zhang Liao and Hao Zhao north to Luoyang to clear the way for our army's northern expedition. Ben will bring 50,000 elite infantry to support Luoyang, and Chen Gong's 80,000 strong soldiers will crusade against Zhang Lu. General Gao Shun and Xu Shu led 10,000 people to stay in Wancheng to transfer grain and grass. Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu, and Ji Ling listened to the order in front of the tent. β
"Whoa!"
"Expedition!" Lu Bu waved the flag, and the army swept through the northwest and northwest roads of the various security stations.
As soon as Lu Bu's army was launched, the movement of the army was carefully transmitted to Xuchang.
Cao Cao gathered a crowd of strategists to discuss the enemy: "Lu Bu is menacing, how to break it?" β
Kong Rong said: "Lu Bu's soldiers are strong and strong, and his subordinates have Chen Gong, Xu Shu, Liu Ye, Jia Xu, Xu Xuan, etc., all of whom are famous people in the sea, and there are Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Xiu, Ji Ling, Zang Ba and other invincible generals, you can't fight, it's better to negotiate peace!" β
Xun Yu said with a smile: "Chen Gong is late, Xu Shu is in danger, Liu Ye has no plan, Jia Xu is plotting for himself, these are all added together like a rabble, and it is difficult to become a big weapon." Gao Shun is harsh, Zhang Liao is reckless, and the rest of the people who are busy are good at fighting, Lu Bu has fought repeatedly, and the soldiers are tired, and they can be broken in one battle. β
Xun Yu tried his best to belittle Lu Bu's camp to appease the army, but he didn't say so lightly in his heart, and the situation in Xuchang was not optimistic.
Cao Cao said with a smile: "As expected, even if Lu Bu has a million heroes, why be afraid." How to defeat the enemy today? β
"Break Liu Bei." Guo Jia said.
"Then the Lu Bujun who detoured to Luoyang ignored it?" Cao Cao was dumbfounded.
"Lu Bubing's departure from Luoyang is a suspicious soldier." Guo Jia was silent for a moment and said: "Lu Bu seems to be extremely powerful, but in fact, he is strong on the outside and capable in the middle, and there is no place to stand. How could Xu Shu and Chen Gongzhicai not see this, since they saw Lu Bu's Achilles heel and turned a blind eye, there must be demons in this. I'm afraid this is a small trick played by Lu Busheng to attack the west in order to win the Hanzhong. A certain bet that Lu Bu's army to Luoyang was less than 3,000. β
"What Feng Xiao said is reasonable." Xun You said: "If Lu Bu wants to attack my Xuchang, why didn't he send troops to Xuchang when Yuan Benchu used troops in Liyang, but instead sent troops after Yuan Benchu's army was defeated?" This one is also suspicious. Since Lu Bu wanted to attack Xuchang, why did the army cross the mountains and wade through the rivers and go to Nanxiang, and the second was suspicious. There are many rumors in Hanzhong and Chengdu, if it wasn't spread by Lu Bu, then who would it be? β
In this way, the prime minister might as well help Lu Bu, so Zhong Xuan persuaded Han Sui and Ma Teng that when Zhang Lu's army came east to block Lu Bu, the troops went out to collect the benefits of the fisherman, and Lu Bu's hand dragged Nan Zheng into his hands. At the same time, Cao Ren sent his generals out of Xiangcheng and attacked Wancheng behind Lu Bu. At that time, Lu Bu will lose both advance and retreat. Cheng Yu said sinisterly.
At this time, Zhang Le sent an urgent secret report to Xuchang, and LΓΌ Bu only sent 20,000 suspicious soldiers to Luoyang to create momentum, and LΓΌ Bu himself and the remaining 30,000 troops turned to Nanxiang in batches, and were building a pontoon bridge in Hanshui to prepare to march to Fangling.
The discussion stopped, Cao Cao summoned Liu Dai, the former assassin of Yanzhou, as the front army, and Wang Zhong led a total of 50,000 troops to attack Liu Bei in Xuzhou.
Cheng Yu reminded: "Liu Dai and Wang Zhong are not good talents, I am afraid they are not Liu Bei's opponents." β
"I know that the two of them are not Liu Bei's opponents, and they deliberately did it to mislead." Cao Cao said with a smile: "A certain banner pretended to go to Luoyang to destroy Lu Bu, and also made a detour to attack Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei could be caught off guard." β
Cao Cao and the others didn't know that Lu Bu had already suspected Zhang Le's identity, so they planned to let Zhang Le pass on the movement of Lu Bu's army to Xuchang, so that Cao Cao could not distinguish Lu Bu's final intentions, so as not to interfere with Lu Bu to take Guanzhong.
Lu Bu's army rushed to Nanxiang, quickly went north to the inner countryside, and unknowingly went out of Wuguan Road and advanced to the Qingni Pass. Zhang Liao left Hao Zhao to guard the Hangu Pass, resisted Cao Cao's army that threatened to come to Luoyang, and quickly attacked Tongguan to counterattack Duan Xuan, Pei Mao and other warlords in the Huayin area.
Lu Bu's army went out of Wuguan and spread to Xuchang, and the princes of the world knew that they were being played by Lu Bu, and they threatened to condemn Lu Bu. Cao Cao was leading the army to Xuzhou halfway, furious, if it weren't for Liu Bei's recruitment of troops and horses to become stronger and stronger, Cao Cao really wanted to return to Xuchang to send troops to Guanzhong.
