Zhang Xiang pretended to be seriously injured as an excuse, and recuperated in the mansion for several months, and Zhang Xiang blocked the entire county guard mansion in order to ensure that the news would not leak out.

Three or four months later, Zhang Xiang left the county guard to deal with political affairs, and traveled in a sedan chair, pretending to be sick and crooked, for fear that others would not know that his serious injury had not healed, and he also showed his diligence.

The office with injuries is also done for the people to see, which can not only paralyze Ding Yuan but also win a little people's hearts, but now Ding Yuan has no time to deal with Zhang Xiang, and he received a letter from the general He Jin.

Let him lead the soldiers to Luoyang Qingjun's side to recruit eunuchs, Ding Yuan used to be the ruling Jinwu of the imperial capital, don't look at Ding Yuan's insidious behavior, but he is still very loyal to the Han Dynasty, so he did not hesitate to gather the soldiers and horses of the state.

The news of Ding Yuan's mobilization of troops and horses, of course, could not be hidden from Zhang Xiang's ears and eyes, Zhang Xiang knew that this day had finally come, as long as Ding Yuan entered Luoyang, then the entire annexed state would be regarded as his own, and the real troubled times would come.

Luoyang City, the capital of the Han Dynasty, the ten permanent servants led by Zhang Rang were very afraid, just last night Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty died, and Zhang Rang and these eunuchs knew that everything he had was given by Emperor Ling.

The death of Emperor Ling means that their good days are coming to an end, and Liu Hong also gave Zhang Rang and others a problem before he died, Liu Hong ordered his youngest son Liu Xie to ascend the throne, and Zhang Rang and others got the edict.

This edict is a talisman for Zhang Rang and others, everyone knows that the eldest son of Emperor Ling is Liu Bian, Liu Bian's uncle is the general He Jin, and his mother is the Empress Dowager He who manages the harem.

This kind of background makes these eunuchs how to put Liu Xie on the throne. However, no matter how difficult it is, they have to complete the last life of the Spirit Emperor, not how loyal Zhang Rang and the others are. Rather, they act in their own interest.

Liu Xie is very young and easy to control, at least let them enjoy it for a few more years. And the festival between them and He Jin is not a day or two, so He Jin will not let them go.

So Zhang Rang and others were ready to take a risk, kill the general He Jin first, and the death of Emperor Ling could just lead He Jin into the palace, but He Jin was not fooled, and under the hint of Jian Shuo Sima, He Jin said that he was not sick.

Zhang Rang and others were unable to stop Liu Wei from ascending the throne, Liu Wei also became the young emperor, and He Jinquan leaned towards the government and the opposition. Zhang Rang and others had to invest in the door of the Empress Dowager He to protect themselves, and at the same time bought off He Miao, the land of He Jin.

He Jin temporarily gave up killing the eunuch because of his younger brother's persuasion and sister's protection, but Zhang Rang and others did not plan to let He Jin go, they knew that they couldn't hide for a while, so they planned to kill He Jin again.

He Jin was unprepared and was killed by the axe men ambushed by Zhang Rang and others as soon as he entered the palace gate, Yuan Shao and others originally followed He Jin, but He Jin did not come out for a long time, and they also began to be suspicious, until Zhang Rang threw He Jin's head outside.

Zhang Rang did this with the intention of intimidating everyone. It's a pity that Zhang let him slip his beard and shoot the horse, and he was really immature enough to do things, so he didn't scare Yuan Shao and the others away.

Instead, it angered Yuan Shao and others, and Yuan Shao and others could say that the arrow had to be fired on Xuan. Once you retreat today, there will be troubles in the future, so Yuan Shao and others launched a mutiny according to what had been agreed in advance.

That night, chaos broke out in the entire imperial city, and many soldiers took the opportunity to burn and loot. Cao Cao and others still had to track down the whereabouts of the young emperor in the chaotic army, but they never thought that Liu Wei and Liu Xie were taken away by Zhang Rang and others.

Cao Cao and the others immediately went to hunt down. Zhang Rang also committed suicide by jumping into the river, seeing that he was going to welcome back the young emperor. At this time, Dong Zhuo inserted a pole and robbed Liu Wei and Liu Xie, and the hundred officials were afraid that Dong Zhuo's troops could only retreat temporarily.

At this time, Zhang Xiang was still counting the days, calculating the time, Ding Yuan, Lu Bu and others should have almost entered Luoyang! I don't know if I'm fighting Dong Zhuo, I really want to take a look!

However, Zhang Xiang just thought about it, Ding Yuan and Lu Bu had already left Bingzhou, which means that there is no real power in the huge Bingzhou, and Zhang Xiang is ready to make the first move from the secret.

That night, Zhang Xiang ignored Yang Xu's opposition and launched a full-scale assassination, killing Ding Yuan's cronies, and the whole state was not so peaceful that night, and Yu Zeng returned to Zhang Xiang a few days later.

Yang Xu watched from the sidelines, "My lord, you are too reckless to do this, although Ding Yuan has already left the state, but it is only temporary, even if Yu Zeng does it cleanly, Ding Yuan will rely on our heads, as long as Ding Yuan has his back to the imperial court, we will have no chance." ”

Zhang Xiang understood that Yang Xu had such thoughts, but Zhang Xiang knew that Ding Yuan would not come back after leaving the state this time, so he dared to do so, "Military advisor, do you think there is still a court?" After the death of Emperor Ling, He Jin was in power, and the power of his relatives also happened a few times in the Han Dynasty, which was not a big deal, but unfortunately He Jin let Ding Yuan Dong Zhuo enter Luoyang at this time, this is to give up power, how could Ding Yuan Dong Zhuo let it go? ”

Yang Xu: "Does the lord mean that Ding Yuan is likely to stay in Luoyang?" But even if Ding Yuan stays in Luoyang, but we slaughter his relatives this time, I'm afraid he won't be able to sit still! ”

Zhang Xiang: "Ding Yuan will indeed stay in Luoyang, but he will close his eyes, Dong Zhuo should not be familiar with this military division, but I know that the rebellion in Liangzhou has not ended in the past two years, so Liangzhou has gathered too many elites of the Han Dynasty, and these elites are now in the hands of Dong Zhuo, the imperial court once planned to remove Dong Zhuo's military power, but Dong Zhuo used means to escape this section, so Dong Zhuo is more ambitious and powerful than Ding Yuan, he will not let Ding Yuan leave Luoyang alive, the military division will wait for news!" ”

Half a month later, Zhang Xiang and others received the news that Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu led his troops to Dong Zhuo and recognized Dong Zhuo as his father-in-law, and Dong Zhuo also became the master of the Han Dynasty, and his power leaned towards the government and the opposition.

"The lord is really powerful, it seems that the state is already in the master's hands." Yang Xu didn't expect things to develop to this point, but when he came to his senses, Yang Xu began to be ecstatic, and Zhang Xiang could be said to have obtained the annexation of the state in order to become a prince.

Zhang Xiang: "Now we still can't make a big move on the bright side, it's not the right time, someone like Dong Zhuo becomes a prince, it will only cause a counterattack from hundreds of officials and local tyrants, I conclude that a terrible battle will definitely break out, and Dong Zhuo will become the target of the public, but if I blatantly control and merge the state, I will share part of Dong Zhuo's pressure, so we have to wait until after the big battle." ”

Yang Xu knew Zhang Xiang very well and knew that Zhang Xiang planned to participate in this big battle, "My lord, you plan to establish a reputation through the big battle with Dong Zhuo, which is indeed a feasible strategy, but it is a bit risky. ”

Zhang Xiang: "Adventures are all taking risks, this big battle must have gathered most of the heroes of the Han Dynasty, if I don't join the Xiangfei Army, it will only let these heroes see us clearly, so we have a lot of invisible losses." ”

Zhang Xiang didn't wait long, Dong Zhuo did evil in Luoyang City and even stayed overnight in the dragon bed, which caused complaints, Cao Cao assassinated Dong Zhuo and failed, and returned to Chen Liu to raise troops against Dong.

The heroes responded and gathered in Chenliu, and Zhang Xiang certainly did not let go of this opportunity, so the historical eighteenth road princes were anti-Dong and became the nineteenth road princes were anti-Dong, and Zhang Xiang was located in the annexed state, so he joined the alliance late.

However, Zhang Xiang and Gongsun Zan are brothers, and they are good friends with Cao Cao and Sun Quan, and they also know the Yuan brothers.

So he didn't embarrass Zhang Xiang, and helped Zhang Xiang choose a better camp, after all, the allies were numerous, Zhang Xiang only brought 10,000 Xiang Fei troops this time, and he didn't want to leave too much blood in the battle against Dong.

After Zhang Xiang settled down, these people left one after another, only Sun Jian stayed to pick up the wind for Zhang Xiang, this kind of thing Zhang Xiang also understands, although Zhang Xiang and Gongsun Zan are brothers, they have never been in contact, the Yuan brothers will not look at themselves if they are above the top, Cao Cao is the initiator of this move, and in the end, only Sun Jian, the old brother, is interesting enough.

Sun Jian prepared a table of wine and food for Zhang Xiang, and an embarrassing incident happened at the wine table, Sun Jian's son Sun Ce was also among the allies, and Sun Ce should call Zhang Xiang an uncle according to his seniority.

After all, Zhang Xiang and Sun Jian are peers, but Sun Ce can't open this mouth, Zhang Xiang is only a few years older than him, and the eldest brother Sun Ce has to be totaled, let alone uncle.

It's a pity that in the end, Sun Ce couldn't resist his father Sun Jian, so he had to call Zhang Xiang an uncle, Zhang Xiang was also a little embarrassed, although Sun Ce was smaller than Zhang Xiang, but he was taller than Zhang Xiang.

Zhang Xiang was not prepared at all for the appearance of such a big nephew out of thin air, so he had to give Sun Ce the jade dagger he carried on his body, after all, the first time he saw the junior, he wanted to return the gift.

Sun Ce didn't have any expression, obviously Sun Ce didn't like the gift given by Zhang Xiang, and Zhang Xiang could only give another gift, after all, it was a matter of face, so Zhang Xiang gave his mount to Sun Ce.

Zhang Xiang's mount, it can't be said to be one in a thousand, but it can always be said to be one in a thousand, although it is not as good as Xiao Xiao, but it is also a rare good horse, Sun Ce really likes it this time, and he really called Zhang Xiang uncle.

Sun Jian has been fighting in Liangzhou for the past two years, and he can be regarded as a person who knows horses, of course, he can see that Zhang Xiang's horse is extraordinary, "Brother, this gift is too valuable!" You'd better keep it for yourself! ”

Zhang Xiang: "My brother looks down on me, the things I sent out have never been returned, and I rely on strategy and rarely do it, it's a pity that this horse stays by my side." ”

Sun Jian: "That's not good, it's because brother, your strength is not high, you should have such a mount, and the battlefield is dangerous, and you are the commander of the first army, so the danger you bear is higher than others." ”

Zhang Xiang: "I Zhang Xiang don't have to rely on a group of war horses for safety, if it really comes to that time, it doesn't matter if there are war horses or not, okay, I've made up my mind, brother, don't say it anymore." In the end, Sun Jian could only thank Zhang Xiang for Sun Ce. (To be continued.) )
