Chapter 68 Liu Yu's entrustment

Entering the study, after the two of them sat down, Liu Jin carefully looked at Liu Yu, who was quite famous in the history books. According to historical records, when this person was guarding the north in Youzhou, he ruled leniently and appeased the people, which was very popular. In terms of attitude towards foreigners, Liu Yu adopted a policy of gentleness, and the Wuhuan people were grateful for Liu Yu's kindness, and they were quite calm within a few years, and there was no sound of golden drums at the border for a while.

I saw that this person had a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a straight nose and a square mouth, and three strands of long hair sprinkled on his chest, which was really mighty. It can be seen from his appearance that Liu Yu was born with a righteous face, so Liu Jin believes that there should be no problem with the records in the history books.

"The old man has long heard that Liu Jin and Liu of Yanmen have destroyed slaves, and they are heroic and brave. When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary." Liu Yu, who is in his forties, said with a slight smile.

When Liu Jin heard this, he hurriedly said modestly: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, this is all rumors, rumors."

When Liu Yu heard this, Zhengse said: "The virtuous nephew doesn't have to be arrogant, Brother Junlang also had a correspondence with Benhou a few days ago, and the letter praised the virtuous nephew."

After a pause, Liu Yu said again: "According to the Tang newspaper of the state capital, the virtuous nephew painstakingly trained a fine cavalry in Yanmen, and repeatedly broke the Yellow Turban army all the way south. Please accept the gift of the virtuous nephew". As he spoke, Liu Yu got up from the seat and bowed down to Liu Jinyao.

Liu Jin hurriedly took a few steps forward, helped Liu Yu, and said: "Bo'an Gong doesn't have to be like this, who doesn't know that Xiang Benhou is loyal to the Han Dynasty, and his heart for the country and the people is really a model for my generation, and Jin is worthy of it!" ”。

After some pleasantries, the two sat down again. Liu Yu said again: "Don't hide it from the virtuous nephew, now the court is up and down, the general He Jin supports the army and respects himself, and Zhang Rang and the party bewitch the saint to ignore the government, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid." Speaking of this, Liu Yu kept silent, just staring at Liu Jin with his eyes.

Needless to say, Liu Jin also knew that the words behind him must be something taboo, so he immediately nodded and signaled to Liu Yu that he understood.

Seeing Liu Jin nodded, Liu Yu continued: "Now the thief army is still powerful, and that Zuo Feng inspected Hebei last time, and just returned to Luoyang, he played a copy of his son's godbrother to His Majesty, and under the strong recommendation of Zhang Rang and others, His Majesty has appointed Dongzhonglang General Dong Zhuo Daizi's godbrother as the former Zhonglang general, and led 3,000 Xiliang cavalry to Julu."

"Yikes!" As soon as he heard this, Liu Jin immediately exclaimed.

"Why is the virtuous nephew so surprised!" , Liu Yu saw that Liu Jin's expression was different, and hurriedly asked.

"Don't hide it from my uncle, yesterday, the little nephew discussed this matter with Cao Cao, the commander of the cavalry. Both of us believe that although Luoyang is besieged, it can still hold on. But if the news of the siege of Luoyang reached Hebei, Lu Gong would definitely lead his troops south to relieve the siege of Luoyang. However, seeing that Liu Yu's expression also changed drastically, Liu Jin immediately stopped talking, afraid that the next words would make this loyal minister unbearable.

Liu Yu is a smart person, as soon as he saw that Liu Jin was silent, and swept his eyes at himself from time to time, he knew Liu Jin's concerns, and hurriedly said: "The virtuous nephew doesn't have to worry about it, although it is all the same!" ”。

After thinking for a while, Liu Jin continued: "However, Jizhou is the fundamental place of the thief army, and Xiaquyang, Julu, and Guangzong are connected in a line, which is not good for our army. Fortunately, Lu Gongtian is talented and uses troops well, which can keep Jizhou safe. But if Lu Gong divides his troops, it will inevitably weaken the military strength of Jizhou to suppress the rebellion, and Jizhou will be in danger! At such a critical juncture, changing commanders in battle is really a taboo in the army, and judging from what Zhang Jiao and others have done, they are not ordinary people. I'm just afraid".

Speaking of which, there is no need to say the rest, because everyone is a person who understands.

Who is Dong Zhuo? It's just a landlord in Lintao County, Longxi. According to the Tang Bao of the History Department of the Xiliang Thorn, this person has a brave personality, excellent strength, and strategy, and is indeed a general.

However, with only one Dong Zhuo, it is really difficult to compare with the world-famous Confucian Lu Zhi. Not to mention anything else, since Lu Zhi led the troops, with 50,000 people, the hundreds of thousands of thieves who fought were crushed, and they could only defend the city. Not only that, but even Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, who have heavy troops, don't dare to fight with them, can he Dong Zhuo?

Thinking of this, coupled with Liu Jin's analysis, Liu Yu's body suddenly softened, as if he had been hit by five thunders, and fell straight down.

Liu Jin was anxious when he saw it, and hurriedly ran around, shouting: "Uncle, uncle!" Bo'an Gong! Hurry up and ask Langzhong". picked up Liu Yu and hurriedly pinched Liu Yu's middle school.

After everyone was in a hurry, Liu Yu woke up slowly. Liu Yu raised his eyes and looked around, and finally found Liu Jin's figure, and said with a little tiredness: "All are scattered, and the virtuous nephew stays."

When the people heard this, they began to disperse. Liu He didn't worry about Liu Yu, but because of his father's majesty, he had to say respectfully to Liu Jin: "I also asked my brother to take care of my father on my behalf, and my younger brother thanked me." Leave! As he spoke, Liu He bowed down, and his waist was bent at seventy or eighty degrees.

Liu Jin nodded, and Liu He was relieved to leave Liu Yu's bedroom. When Liu He left, Liu Jin stood respectfully at the head of Liu Yu's bed, and said in a respectful tone: "If your uncle has any orders, the little nephew will do his best." Liu Jin admires Liu Yu very much for such a good official who worries about the country and the people, so his demeanor is also extremely respectful.

Hearing this, Liu Yu smiled with relief, and then said: "According to what the virtuous nephew said, Jizhou must be in great danger, and the old man implores the virtuous nephew to ask for his life tomorrow morning, and lead the troops to the north to save the Han in danger." As he spoke, Liu Yu tried to get up, but he was sick and fell suddenly.

Listening to Liu Yu's words, Liu Jin admired this loyal minister who was sick but still did not forget the danger of the country, and blurted out: "This is the duty of a general, but uncle, the little nephew is now only 3,000 soldiers, and there are only a few generals, I am afraid it will be difficult to solve the crisis in Jizhou!" ”。

Seeing Liu Jin say this, Liu Yu only felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, his strength seemed to have recovered a lot, and his tone of voice was also sufficient: "Don't worry, as long as the virtuous nephew drags the thief army in Jizhou for a few days, the reinforcements will arrive!" ”。

Hearing this, Liu Jin frowned deeply, and did not speak for a long time. just said secretly in his heart: "Now Luoyang is more than self-preservation, and not enterprising enough." In addition, after the siege of the Yellow Turban, the Manchu Dynasty has become a frightened bird, where does this Liu Yu come from? ”。

Liu Yu, who was leaning on the sickbed, seemed to see Liu Jin's doubts, and said: "There is no need to doubt that the virtuous nephew has no doubts, after the emperor Fu Yizhen is a famous general, and now the commander of the thief army in Yuzhou and Nanyang has been wiped out. What is lacking is these few days, if you let the thief army take the opportunity to rise, it will be difficult to destroy it", said this, Liu Yu was full of confidence before he changed, and his face was worried.

"Please rest assured, uncle, the little nephew will fight to the last soldier, and he will definitely buy more time for General Huangfu." It's easy to say, but Liu Jin knows that this matter is difficult. After all, he will face the main force of nearly one million Yellow Turban Army, and to be honest, Liu Jin himself has no bottom at all.

"Okay, well, with the words of the virtuous nephew, the old man will rest assured, tomorrow morning, the old man will definitely make a suggestion to Long Live to fight for more people for the virtuous nephew." Liu Yu was happy in his heart, said three good words in a row, and said a reassuring word to Liu Jin.

From the words of Han Tao and Cao Xing in the past, it is not difficult for Liu Jin to speculate on the power of the DPRK. Now in Luoyang City, and even in the entire Han Dynasty, the most effective person is three and a half people.

The first, the general, the representative of the military, He Jin. This person is in charge of Luoyang and Luoyang Baguan's tens of thousands of horses, and there are countless henchmen in the court, and he is the most powerful person in Luoyang.

The second, Zhongchang Servant, Zhang Rang, a representative of the eunuch party. This person is the head of the ten permanent servants, in charge of more than 10,000 people in the southern army of the inner court, and is the most powerful person in the inner court, and even the emperor Liu Hong called him his father.

The third is Liu Yu in front of him, Liu Yu is one of the representatives of the clan and the clan party, sitting on tens of thousands of horses in the Tiger Army and the Si Li Lieutenant Department, although most of them are miscellaneous troops, but they are also regarded as a party of the hour.

Thinking of this, Liu Jin was also a little relieved, and said busily: "Then thank you uncle, if possible, the little nephew wants to use the trap camp under the command of Ding Tingshi."

After a pause, Liu Jin said again: "Uncle works hard for state affairs, and the little nephew can't bear it, so he will leave!" When they met for the first time, Liu Jin still admired this so-called uncle who he had never met, and even began to care about his body.

"Hmmm! The matter of Jizhou is bothered by the virtuous nephew. The old man will try his best to fight for the secondment of the virtuous nephew to the camp", Liu Yu admonished again, and did not ask Liu Jin why he wanted to order this team, after all, he didn't know anything about the army. After a pause, he said, "He'er, send your brother for your father."

Liu He, who was waiting outside the door, heard this, immediately pushed open the door and said softly: "Yes, father." Brother please! ”。

Following Liu He, Liu Jin led more than ten people including Hiero out of Liu Yu's bedroom, and it didn't take long for them to come to the door. Along the way, the two had a lot of conversations.

Seventeen or eighteen-year-old Liu He is the age of worshipping heroes, and he admires heroes like Liu Jin who crisscross the battlefield and fight for the country. But because his father Liu Yu fell ill, Liu He was not in the mood to be too enthusiastic.

On the contrary, Liu Jin has a good impression of this young marquis, and he used to think that Liu He was just a weak scholar who was not a fledgling. However, after experiencing Liu Yu's incident, Liu Jin still looked at the filial piety of this young marquis.

The two of them said goodbye, each stepped on their horses, and slowly walked towards the post house in the east of the city.

At night, there are almost no pedestrians in the market. The group turned Qinglong Street and entered a dark alley, suddenly, Liu Jin only felt a cold breath, rushing straight to himself, and immediately woke up, and said urgently: "Everyone be careful, there is a murderous aura here!" ”。

When Hierro, Meng Ang, Liu Yang and others heard this, they were immediately shocked, and when they were about to make a move, they heard Liu Jin say again: "Don't make a noise."

The group was secretly on guard, and under Liu Jin's signal, Liu Yang slowly slowed down his war horse and gradually fell behind the back of the team. In just a few moments, more than ten riders reached the middle of the alley.

Suddenly, a sound of bowstring rattling erupted, and in an instant, hundreds of sharp feather arrows shot straight towards Liu Jin and the others.

"There are assassins", Liu Jin shouted, and the loud voice suddenly resounded in all directions, like a thunderclap in the silent night.

As Liu Jin spoke, the Painted Dragon Celestial Halberd in his hand swung rapidly, and in an instant, more than a dozen fierce feather arrows were shot down. The people behind Liu Jin also hurriedly waved the blades in their hands, firing the feather arrows that were fired.

Rao is Liu Jin and others had been on guard for a long time, and they were also beaten in a hurry for a while. At this moment, I suddenly heard a person in the dark say: "The one who kills Liu Jin will be rewarded with a hundred catties (ancient gold refers to brass), rush!" ”。 Suddenly, hundreds of black figures with spears and short knives in their hands surged out of the shadows and swooped towards Liu Jin and the others. All of them are quick and agile. In a flash, he arrived in front of the horses of Liu Jin and others. (To be continued)
