In September of the fourth year of Emperor Guangping of the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu, the captain of the Han Fenwu School, repelled nearly 80,000 coalition troops of the Qianghu Seven Divisions with 6,000 armor soldiers, beheaded 5 tribal leaders and 11 captains, captured the Xiongnu prince Wuli Kunyi, captured countless military horses and equipment, and shook the world.

Luoyang, in the Chongde Hall of the Eastern Han Dynasty Imperial Palace, when Zhang Rang, the head of the Ten Standing Attendants, read out the recital that Ding Yuan had just handed over yesterday, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including Emperor Ling, were boiling. All the courtiers said hello to Emperor Ling, and Emperor Ling of Han laughed proudly. Over the years, the Qianghu tribes have crisscrossed the northern frontier, often going south to plunder, this time they were attacked by Lu Bu, and the losses were heavy, not to mention that even the Xiongnu prince was captured, which is really happy to say.

Seeing that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, including Emperor Ling, were full of praise for Lu Bu, Zhao Zhong, the tenth permanent attendant, couldn't help but be jealous, and played beside Emperor Ling: "Your Majesty, the establishment of generals in the state army has always been controlled by the imperial court, and there are detailed records of military generals. I've never heard of Fenwu Captain Lu Bu. This person is unknown, and the minister is worried that he is the general of the family that Ding Yuan raised privately. There is a lot of mystery in this matter, and I ask Your Majesty to investigate it. When Emperor Han Ling heard this, the smile on his face suddenly froze, as an emperor, what he was most afraid of was that his ministers would privately support their generals and secretly expand their strength, especially a feudal official like Ding Yuan, who had already held heavy troops. Seeing Emperor Ling's stagnant expression, Cai Yong came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Ding has worked hard for the country to defend the northern Xinjiang for many years without saying a reward. Hearing this, Zhao Zhong asked: "If Ding Yuan didn't harbor trouble and wanted to plot against His Majesty, then may I ask Lord Cai, what is the explanation for this Lu Bu who appeared out of thin air?" ”

Cai Yong argued against each other and sneered: "Your Majesty has ever remembered that the Qiang-Hu coalition army besieged Jiuyuan City before, and Lord Ding had sent a 600-li urgent delivery due to insufficient troops to ask His Majesty to promise to temporarily recruit loyal and brave people to join the army to serve the country, and the minister expected that this Lu Bu must have stepped forward in times of danger and surrendered to Ding Jianyang's command. Seeing that Zhao Zhong was short of words, Zhang Rang said: "Lord Cai seems to know the situation in Bingzhou very well, and our family doesn't know how Lord Cai knows the situation in Bingzhou when he is in the capital and thousands of miles away from northern Xinjiang." Then his face changed, and he said: "Your Majesty, Cai Yong, the speaker of the council, colluded with local officials to plot misdeeds, please ask Your Majesty to put him in prison immediately." Seeing the eunuchs pampering and arrogance and disturbing the court, Bei Zhonglang couldn't hold back Lu Zhi anymore, he took a step forward and said: "Zhang Changshou said this, but he wants to trap the Manchu Dynasty in a place of disloyalty and injustice? I think that the officials of the Han Dynasty all started from the low, and after many years of selection from the layers to the court, every official was conscientious and conscientious when serving in the field, and abided by his duties, which made the situation in the jurisdiction deeply in his mind. Dare to ask Zhang Changshi, if it is a crime to fulfill his duties, then please ask Your Majesty to send all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to the prison! ”

As soon as these words came out, the counselors Duting Marquis Zhu Jun, Wuhuan Zhonglang General Zong Yuan, Situ Wang Yun, Yilang Yang Biao and others knelt down and asked Emperor Ling to take away his official position and go to prison. Zhang Rang saw that the matter was getting bigger, so he didn't dare to say anything more and obediently closed his mouth and retreated to the side of the Spirit Emperor.

The scene was extremely embarrassing for a while, and seeing Emperor Ling's expression of crying and laughing, Lang Han said out of the class: "Your Majesty, my Han is happy to win the good general Lu Bu, and his bravery is no less than that of the overlord of Western Chu. Since His Majesty has doubts, it is better not to praise the merits of the military horses of Bingzhou for the time being, and issue an edict ordering Ding Yuan Lu Bu to escort to Wuli Kunyi into Beijing, so that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty can see what this immortal tiger will look like? Let's find out if he is loyal to His Majesty? If it is found that the two of them have a disobedient heart, His Majesty can deal with it immediately, otherwise, it is not too late to praise them. ”

"Your Majesty, what Lord Han said is very appropriate, but these two are both the commanders of the Bingzhou Army, and if they are transferred at the same time without explanation, it will be difficult to convince the public." Taifu Yuan Kui came out of the class and said, "In the humble opinion of the ministers, the merits of the state army in this battle are all in Lu Bu, not the following edict, only Lu Bu escorted Wuli Kunyi into Beijing, in order to calm the dissatisfaction of the state army." The situation in front of him couldn't be clearer, Emperor Ling knew that the Ten Standing Servants were wrong but didn't want to lose face, so everyone seconded the proposal: "The minister thinks that Lord Han's method is very good, and the minister will reconsider." ”

Emperor Ling wiped his sweat, glared at Zhao Zhong dissatisfiedly, and said to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military: "In this way, it will be played by Yuan Qing!" ”

At this time, Lu Bu didn't know that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces in the Jinluan Palace, thousands of miles away, were incompatible with themselves and the ten permanent servants, and they were engrossed in dealing with the Chahantai who gritted his teeth but was helpless in front of Yulin Pass, Lu Bu leisurely lay on the city wall and shouted at the 50,000 wolf riders under the pass: "Chahantai, it's not that I, Lu Bu, broke my promise, you and I agreed that day, you led the wolf riders to withdraw from Yulin Pass, I won't kill your eldest brother, but I didn't promise to let your eldest brother go!" ”

"Lu Bu, you ......" Chahantai pointed at Lu Bu in the city with some gaffes, "I didn't expect you to be such a sinister and cunning person, I knew today, it was better to give you a go." Lu Bu turned around, looked at the 8,000 soldiers and horses who had entered the customs one after another, and shouted proudly at Chahantai: "Give it a go, okay!" Do you want me to rush down the pass now and have another solo charge? But you don't seem to have a few tribal leaders and captains left, right?" As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers on Yulin Closed laughed loudly. Lu Bu saw that the time was almost up, so he said to Chahantai: "The Xiongnu prince Wuli Kunyi connived at his subordinates to slaughter 652 officials and people guarding the city of Yulin, the crime is extremely evil, I want to send him to the capital, handed over to the Han Emperor, Chahantai, if you still want your eldest brother to live, I advise you to return to the royal court immediately to discuss with your father Khan, it's too late, don't blame me for the strict laws of the Han Dynasty!! ”

Looking at the Qianghu cavalry that was far away, more than 10,000 soldiers in Yulin Pass shouted in unison: "Brothers, we have won!" A cheer echoed throughout the city. Lu Bu breathed a long sigh of relief, sat on the women's wall with his legs on his legs, and looked at the officers and soldiers in the city with a smile on his face. But before his ass was hot, he saw Cao Xing running up to the city tower sweating profusely: "General Lu, go and have a look, General Zhang is going to kill the prisoners." ”

"What? This Zhang Liao!! Lu Bu hurriedly stood up and said, "Let's go, follow me to have a look." ”

"Wen Yuan, Wen Yuan, don't be impulsive!" Gao Shun grabbed Zhang Liao's arm, and the more than 1,000 captives who had been confiscated on the opposite side knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands, looking at the Yellow Dragon Hook Sickle raised high in Zhang Liao's hand with frightened eyes. Seeing Zhang Liao's blood-red eyes from a distance as if he was about to eat someone, Lu Bu shouted: "Wenyuan, don't stop yet!" Zhang Liao saw Lu Bu coming, and knew that the victory in this battle was all due to Lu Bu, so he reluctantly sold him face. Lowered the hook scythe.

Lu Bu ran over quickly, looked at the prisoner who was kneeling on the ground, and asked Gao Shun, "What's going on?" Before Gao Shun could speak, Zhang Liao said angrily: "These brutes don't know what to do, just saw that we executed several thousand commanders who slaughtered Yulin Pass, and they dared to say something inconsequential in their mouths, which is really infuriating to me!" Seeing that Zhang Liao looked angry, and the hook and sickle blade in his hand was still tilting in the direction of the prisoner from time to time, Lu Bu turned around and ordered: "Cao Xing, Hou Cheng, quickly take the prisoner to the guard and hand over to General Cheng Lian." The two men retreated, and in a short time the large group of prisoners, escorted by three hundred spearmen, began to advance towards the guard.

"Oops!" Looking at the captives who were gradually moving away, Zhang Liao sighed helplessly, threw the hook and sickle in his hand to Gao Shun, turned around and walked to the city wall, sat down and sulked alone.

Seeing Zhang Liao's appearance like a resentful woman, Lu Bu couldn't help laughing, and also walked over, and said to Zhang Liao: "Wenyuan, this Yulin Pass, if it is steep, it is the first in the state?" Zhang Liao lowered his head, fiddling with the weeds he caught, and responded angrily: "That's right, except for Jizhou Huguan, there is no pass that can be compared with the steepness alone, this is the north gate of the Han Dynasty!" ”

"But Wen Yuan, have you ever thought about why we have such a strong pass, but we are still beaten in by the Huns?" Lu Bu completely lost the majestic momentum of killing all sides on the battlefield at this moment, grabbed a handful of dry grass like a child, sat next to Zhang Liao, and fiddled, "Isn't it that we won't fight?" Probably not, right? If we don't know how to fight, the enemy army will definitely have captured Jiuyuan City right now, and the entire Jiuyuan County will be in flames. If we can fight, and there is such a steep pass, why can't we stop the enemy? Because of hatred!! ”

Zhang Liao listened attentively, stopped what he was doing and asked, "Hatred?" Lu Bu nodded: "Yes, hatred, let me ask you, why do you want to kill the Huns and Xianbei people so much?" Zhang Liao clenched his fists and said fiercely: "Because all nine members of my family died because of them." "Yes, because you hate them, you will kill them as soon as possible. But you have forgotten that they also have wives and sons. Lu Bu threw down the withered grass and said to Zhang Liao solemnly: "They killed your relatives and brought hatred to you, and if you kill them and bring hatred to their children, what will their children do?" will intensify the massacre of the Han people to vent their hatred. Because of this, the war goes on and on, and you and I may be very happy in the war, but in the end, it is the people on both sides who suffer! Wen Yuan, if you want to end the war, you must first stop the hatred, you are also a victim of suffering, you should be impressed by the tragic situation when those people were slaughtered, right? ”

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Zhang Liao was silent. Lu Bu is right, he is also a victim, and the tragic situation of those refugees is still fresh in his memory. I don't know how long it took, Zhang Liao suddenly dropped the weeds in his hand and knelt in front of Lu Bu: "General, I didn't expect that you are not only excellent in martial arts, but also far superior to us in the realm of generals." I understand, what you mean when you say eliminate hatred is what Sun Tzu said about attacking the heart, General Lu, I Zhang Liao has served, from today on, I am willing to serve under the general, and please give the general advice! ”

"Okay, Wen Yuan is worthy of being a good general, he realized the meaning of Feng Xian so quickly, please hurry up." Lu Bu helped Zhang Liao up, patted him on the shoulder, and thought: With the recognition of Ding Yuan and Zhang Liao, he can be regarded as a foothold in the Bingzhou Army.

Luoyang, in the back garden of Yong'an Palace, Emperor Liu Hong is holding the queen He Li'er and the general He Jin watching the chrysanthemums together.

"He Qing! You are already sick, and you should have a good life and cultivation, but it's a pity that there are many things in the court, and I still need He Qing's support! Emperor Ling opened his mouth and swallowed the grapes handed by He Li'er into his stomach, and said to He Jin, the general sitting on the left, "This morning, the hundred officials fought with Rang Father. I don't know why, this civil and military official just can't get used to seeing my father, you must know that my father has always been loyal to me! ”

This general He Jin, originally a butcher, because his sister He Li'er was born beautiful and was elected to the court to get the honor of Emperor Ling of Han, and then gave birth to the prince Liu Wei and was made the queen, and he was also promoted, all the way to the position of general. Listening to Emperor Ling's meaning, he wanted to let himself mediate to adjust the relationship between the hundred officials and the ten permanent servants. He Jin couldn't help but sneer in his heart, I, He Jin, as a general, should have commanded the soldiers and horses of Gyeonggi, but you, a fool, want to install a marshal position to divide my military power, and what is even more hateful is that this marshal is still a eunuch, Liu Hong, Liu Hong, you are so mediocre, I really don't know how long your Liu family can sit in this world?

In fact, He Jin has always been resentful of these eunuchs since the division of military power, so instead of wanting to ease the contradictions between the two factions, he hopes that the situation between the DPRK and China will become more and more intense, only in this way will Emperor Ling, an old fool, rely on him more, and he can also obtain greater power. Hearing what Emperor Ling said, he immediately got up and saluted: "Your Majesty, in fact, according to the foolish opinion of the last general, Your Majesty is really a little too fond of the eunuchs, and my border soldiers fought bloodily to protect the territory of the Han Dynasty and the enemy who was several times their own, and His Majesty not only did not reward him, but doubted the center of gravity of the soldiers because of the words of the eunuchs, if this matter is publicized, it will inevitably make the soldiers feel cold!" ”

Seeing that He Jin, who was not weak in prestige among the hundred officials and the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, also stood on the side of the hundred officials, Emperor Ling also sighed helplessly: "He Qing, how can I not know the suffering of the border soldiers, the hundred officials have a lot of discussions, but let my father be as kind to me as a mountain, He Qing and my father are my two arms, and I am indispensable!" Queen He Lian'er picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine, picked up the wine glass with her slender fingers like a green onion tube and was about to drink it all, when she suddenly saw that the emperor, who had planned to accompany her to watch the chrysanthemums and drink and have fun, actually argued with her brother again, and couldn't help glaring at He Jin angrily, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that you don't care about the government when you leave the Chongde Palace?" You are the Son of Heaven, how can you go back on your word? As he spoke, he drank all the wine in his glass and slammed it on the table.

Seeing that the beauty was angry, the old and faint Spirit Emperor immediately laughed and said: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, don't be angry, I, punish yourself!" As he spoke, he directly picked up the wine jug and drank it, and He Li'er kept clapping her hands and applauding beside her: "Your Majesty has a good amount of wine, hehehe, take another sip!" He Jin's right hand secretly strengthened and clenched into a fist, the emperor in front of him was already wrinkled, his beard was turning white, but he was still indulging in wine, ignoring the government and politics, and letting the eunuchs do whatever they wanted. I couldn't help but think in my heart: Liu Hong, Liu Hong, you are so mediocre, I really don't know how long your Liu family can sit in this world? Originally, I also pointed to you to protect my glory and wealth, but it seems that I am going to plan for myself.

In the Changqing Palace, Zhang Rang slapped Zhao Zhong fiercely: "Waste, not enough success, more than failure, today because of your words, our family almost became the target of public criticism!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Rang had lost his temper enough, Duan Gui, who had been sitting on the side and watching coldly for a long time, came forward to play a round: "Okay, okay, Lord Zhang, Lord Zhao is also for the sake of our ten permanent servants, although Your Majesty favors us, but after all, we are old and the dragon body is not as good as one day." After a hundred years, won't Your Majesty still have to rely on ourselves? Most of the generals in Luoyang City are either protégés of the Yuan family or subordinates of the He family, relying on the power of our ten permanent servants is currently difficult to balance them, if you don't promote local officials without restraint,......" Zhang Rang, who had been listening to Duan Guiyan, heard this, his eyes suddenly opened, and then he raised his orchid finger: "Stop, what did you just say about the military generals in the capital?" ”

Duan Gui replied confusedly: "My lord, my subordinates just said that most of the generals in Luoyang City are either protégés of the Yuan family or subordinates of the He family, and it is difficult to balance them by relying on the forces of our ten permanent servants. "Yes, that's it!" Zhang Rang stood up, and said to everyone with excitement on his face: "Although we control the soldiers and horses in Beijing, most of them are the old officials of the Yuan family or the He family, and there are very few people who can be used by me, so we must carefully cultivate some young generals who can be used by me, especially those like Lu Bu, who are brave and champion of the three armies and do not have much contact with the ministers of the DPRK and China, and recruit a few more such talents, even if Your Majesty controls the dragon and bintian, hehe, our family, we are not afraid of the rebellion of our family by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty!" ”

Xia Yun also stepped forward and said: "Also, although the current queen is He Jin's sister, she was not born to a mother, only because when she was a nobleman, there was no one in the court to rely on He Jin's chair like Mount Tai, and He Jin allied with him for the sake of glory and wealth." Now He Jinguan is a general, a very popular minister, not only does he not support his nephew to inherit the unification, but also openly and secretly supports the son of Empress Linghuai, King Chen Liu, which leads to the deepening of the gap between the two, and they are on the same page. If we can stick to the big tree of the queen at this time, and find a way to support the queen's concubine to ascend the throne after a hundred years of His Majesty, hehe, at that time, our family will have the support of the military generals of the feudal towns outside, and the trust of the queen inside, no one will be able to move us! ”

"Hahaha! Okay, to deliver the decree in Japan, Duan Gui personally went to Jinyang and tried to encircle Lu Bu and the soldiers of Bingzhou. There were bursts of shrill screams in the deep Changqing Palace, and the eunuchs outside the hall were terrified.

Five days later, Duan Gui personally came to Jinyang, the assassination site of Bingzhou, with the edict of Emperor Ling.

"Fengtian transported, the emperor edict said: Although Ding Yuan, the assassin of Bingzhou, was derelict in his duties, he did not plan properly in the face of danger, and his subordinate soldiers fought bloodily and finally retreated from the enemy. Fenwu Captain Lu Bu personally went into battle to fight, killed countless enemy chieftains, and captured the Xiongnu prince Wuli Kunyi, which was very comforting. The edict was specially issued to reward the border soldiers with 500 altars of imperial wine, and ordered Fenwu Captain Lu Bu to lead the military horses of the headquarters to Wuli Kunyi to go to Beijing, and set off immediately on the day of the arrival. ”

Watching Duan Gui read out the edict domineeringly, Cheng Lian, who had a fiery temperament, couldn't bear it for a long time, stood up and asked: "Lord Qincha, in this battle, my border soldiers fought bloodily, and the casualties were huge. ”

"Bold, are you saying that Your Majesty is unfair?" Duan Gui frowned, and his sharp voice pierced the air, "Come on, tie up this guy who is disrespectful and despises His Majesty!" At the moment, he had already thrown Zhang Rang's order to let him entrap the local generals out of the clouds. Seeing Cheng Lian's hand pressed the scabbard with the intention of committing murder, Ding Yuan hurriedly got up and said: "Tell the superiors, I and the state soldiers are loyal to the country, and I will never dare to despise the emperor. As he spoke, he handed a brocade box to Duan Gui.

Duan Gui waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, and looked at the white silver in the brocade box with satisfaction, with a lewd smile on his face, and Lu Bu's stomach turned upside down.
