Chapter 738: The Storm is Coming
At the foot of Wangwu Mountain, Lu Bu rode like a horse. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ The hooves thundered, and the two gray hares jumped up from the grass in panic and ran deeper into the woods. As soon as they leaped up, a feathered arrow flew in, and at the same time shΓ¨ pierced through two hares, and the strong force carried the hare two steps sideways in the air, and landed on the ground with a thud.
A knight galloped and rode uphill. He did not dismount either, but with a huff of his hand, he picked up the hare, turned his horse's head, and ran back.
"Feng Xian, good archery!" Zhao Yun held the reins, glanced at the two hares, and praised: "One stone and two rabbits, there is progress again." β
"What a thing!" Lu Bu sighed, put the bow in his pocket, and turned the horse's head. The war horse was still the big red horse that Liu Xiu gave him, and after more than ten years, it no longer had the majesty of the year, and it gradually became tired. Lu Bu stroked the horse's mane and glanced at the direction of Luoyang with resentment: "I'm just like this horse, a good time, all wasted." β
Zhao Yun couldn't help laughing, and then felt a little gloomy. Lu Bu's words aroused his thoughts, since the Huangshui Battle broke Zhong Qiang, they had not participated in the war for nearly ten years. Seeing that their sons are all grown up and they are getting old, I can't help but feel a little sorry when I think of spending this life like this.
However, in front of Lu Bu, he couldn't show this mood. In the days when the army was stationed in Hedong, Lu Bu was like an ant on a hot pot, eager to lead the army into Luoyang, as if Luoyang had been inextricably beaten, but he Lu Bu had fallen.
"You didn't waste it, the government affairs were thrown to Wang Lie, you yourself have to play a horse thief on the grassland for two or three months every year, right? When is it not more than a few blows, not enough to be happy? β
"Andβ" Lubra grew in a long voice, dismissive, "that's just a tooth sacrifice." I, Lu Bu, either don't fight, or if I want to fight, I have to fight a big war like Luoyuan and Huangshui to be interesting. As Lu Bu spoke, he turned his horse forward, walked side by side with Zhao Yun, lowered his voice and said, "Zilong, I heard that Murong Feng's kid is not very peaceful. You said that after the king leveled the little emperor. Will it take us on a westward expedition? I've long wanted to clean up Murong Feng, wait, wait, look, your beard is almost white. β
Zhao Yun shook his head: "It's hard to say about this matter. Regardless of whether the king succeeds or not, I don't think this westward expedition is likely in the short term. First, Jizhou has not yet been pacified, how can there be any uneasiness inside, first the reason for the outside. Second, there are too many things to prepare for the Western Expedition, and it will take a long time just to mobilize the army and prepare the food. Even when the world is unified. National mobilization is also needed, and now ......"
He sighed, a faint sorrow on his brow. Liu Xiu was forced to have a showdown with Xiao Tianzi, in Zhao Yun's opinion, in fact, the time was far from ripe, but the matter was forced in front of him, and he had to do so. Liu Xiu's entry into Luoyang must be an extremely dangerous battle. If you don't get it right, you will lose both. They all sent their sons to Jiangling, that is, to follow Liu Xiu, in case Liu Xiu was defeated. They're in trouble.
In this case, what else to talk about the westward expedition.
Seeing that Zhao Yun didn't speak, Lu Bu was also a little worried. He and Zhao Yun had different ideas, he thought that Liu Xiu's entry into Luoyang was a mistake at all, and he should mobilize an army of Liang to go straight to the outside of Luoyang City, kill Cao CΔo to the ground, and then force the palace, at that time, who would dare to say a word?
"General, someone's coming." Zhao Rong reminded.
Zhao Yun and Lu Bu followed Zhao Rong's fingers and looked forward. I saw a horse galloping forward, jumping off the horse under the hillside, and going uphill in one breath. "General Zhao, Lu Fujun, Jia Changshi, please return to the camp immediately."
Zhao Yun and Lu Bu exchanged a look, and asked in unison, "What's the matter?" β
"I don't know."
Zhao Yun frowned slightly. Silent in thought. Lu Bu slapped his thigh, and said happily and disappointedly: "Hey, it must be the king who won, it's a pity, we came for nothing again." β
Zhao Yun glared at him: "Why do you still want to kill in Luoyang City?" β
Lu Bu laughed: "Then I don't dare." I just want to shake the majesty of our northern frontier army under Luoyang City, and see what kind of cowardice those rabbit cubs of the northern army will be. β
Zhao Yun was not in the mood to talk to him, so he turned the horse's head and led people down the mountain. Lu Bu didn't dare to slack off, and beckoned Cheng Lian and the others to follow and return to the camp together. The two returned to the camp, didn't care about resting, and went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army. As soon as he entered the tent, Lu Bu shouted loudly: "Wenhe, Wenhe, you are in such a hurry to call us back, but what good news do you have to tell us?" β
Before the scream fell, Jia Xu turned out from behind the tent, wearing clothes as he walked, his hair was a little messy, and his eyes were sleepy, looking like he had just taken a nap. He glanced at Lu Bu and laughed: "Good news? Where's the good news? β
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment and stopped Lu Bu: "Wenhe, what is the matter?" β
"It's not a big deal, the General's Mansion just sent an order." Jia Xu said unhurriedly while getting dressed: "Because we tried to lead our troops into Beijing, Your Majesty sent an edict and demoted our posts, and from now on, we will be under the command of the general." β
"Demotion? General? When Lu Bu heard this, he jumped up and scolded: "Which general? Dare to demote me, see that I don't split him. What about people, Wenhe, where is the turtle grandson who gave the order? β
Jia Xu looked at him, and then at Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun's face was heavy: "Wenhe, the king is defeated?" β
"You'll find out if you look at it." Jia Xu also put away his smile, sat down behind the case, put his hands on the case, and sighed.
Zhao Yun took the military order, but he didn't dare to open it, he hesitated for a moment, looked at the military order in his hand, and felt that his hand seemed to hold a mountain, and he involuntarily sank down. When Lu Bu looked at his face, he also became nervous: "Wenhe, the king...... Really defeated? β
Jia Xu didn't speak, and slowly lowered his head. Lu Bu looked at his posture, and became even more nervous, snatched the military order from Zhao Yun's hand, unfolded the paper, and quickly looked at it.
The military order was very simple, as Jia Xu said, the Son of Heaven was very angry about their attempt to lead the army into Beijing, and removed Zhao Yun from the post of general of Zhenbei, moved to the left as the general of Huxian Bei, and removed Jia Xu from the post of general of Zhenbei, and took office with Zhao Yun. Removed Lu Bushuo from the post of Fang Taishou, and moved left to the post of Sima of the Lieutenant Mansion of the Commander of Xianbei. Take office immediately and without delay. The signature is the general Song Feng.
"Fart!" Lu Bu was furious, tore apart with two general orders, pulled out his sword from its sheath, and roared: "Wenhe, where is the turtle grandson who sent the order?" I hacked him. β
"What do you want to do?" Jia Xu raised his head and looked at Lu Bu in surprise.
"What for?" Lu Bu glared at Jia Xu and felt a little incredible. "It's all come to this, what are you waiting for? The little emperor dared to issue such an edict, naturally the king was defeated, maybe he would be locked up in Luoyang City now, what are we waiting for? Wait until they cut off the king's head? Wen He, immediately sent a message to Xiahou Yuan, let him rush to Luoyang as quickly as possible, we will join forces, even if it is a bloody Luoyang City, we must rescue the king. β
"Bloody Luoyang City, you really dare to think about it." Jia Xu was taken aback.
"What don't you dare to think?" Lu Bu's eyes were red, and the roar could even be heard clearly by the people outside the tent. "The king has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, and he can't die well, so can we still have good fruits to eat? Anyway, it's a death, it's better to kill it happily, and maybe you can reverse the defeat. Alas, I will say that the king is too soft-hearted, why should we stop advancing, if we are stationed under the city of Luoyang, how can such a thing happen? β
"You're saying the king is wrong?" A young officer walked in and said lightly.
"Of course not." Lu Bu blurted out, and the words came out of his mouth, only then did he react and glared at the officer: "Who is your old mother, who dares to break into the big tent of the Chinese army, and don't want to die?" β
"I am the herald you are going to see." The young officer arched his hand and saluted Zhao Yun: "General Zhao." β
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and his nervousness was relieved a little.
"Oh-it turned out to be you, you are not small, you know that Lao Tzu is looking for you, and you dare to come." Lu Buwei screamed, pulled out the ring knife with a "choking" sound, and put it on the officer's neck: "But do you know or not, what is Lao Tzu looking for you for?" β
"Yes." The officer's eyes tightened, and his body tensed. He could see the undisguised murderous aura in Lu Bu's eyes, and knew that if he delayed any longer, he would not be able to kill him with one knife if Lu Bu couldn't get it. He slowly pulled a green sac out of his arms. "I think, if Lu Fujun wants to see me, he should want to see this."
Lu Bu was a little surprised, this was not the answer he wanted. He hesitated for a moment, reached out and took the green sac, threw it to Jia Xu, and shouted in a deep voice: "Wenhe, open it and take a look, if the answer is not what we want, I will kill this kid with a knife now." β
Jia Xu took the green bag, just glanced at it, and laughed. He waved his hand: "Feng Xian, let him go." β
Lu Bu was confused, retreated to Jia Xu, glanced at it, and couldn't help but be stunned, looking at Jia Xu blankly, as if he wanted to listen to his explanation. Zhao Yun also came over and stretched out his head to look.
The young officer tidied up the hem of his clothes and said with a faint smile: "Three adults, you have also read the general's military order, are you willing to accept the order?" β
Jia Xu straightened up, exchanged glances with Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, and at the same time clenched his fists and responded violently.
The young officer smiled, bowed in return, turned and went out of the tent, and when he reached the outside of the camp, he stepped on his horse and galloped away. Soon after he left, Zhao Yun and the others set up camp, changed the battle flag, and went all the way to the north. After a few days, Zhao Yun rushed to Jinyang and immediately summoned Jiajia Wenshu to explain to him the official duties of the assassination of the state.
Wen Shu was inexplicable: "General Zhao, how are you ...... Quitting all of a sudden? β
"It's not that I resigned, it's that I've been dismissed." Zhao Yun took out the general's order, "You see, I am now the general of the Xianbei Zhonglang, and I am ordered to rush to Shuofang to monitor the Niutou tribe." Wen Jun, this time there may be a big battle, and the state must prepare military rations and corresponding baggage. β
After reading the military order, Wen Shu was suddenly stupid. He pointed to the military order and stammered, "General Zhao...... No, Zhao Zhonglang, what should you do if you are gone, and what about the new policy? β
Zhao Yun shrugged: "These questions, the successor of the Bingzhou Assassin will naturally explain to him, and I can't answer you." Wen Jun, please try your best to handle the matter of military rations, and don't affect the war. β
After saying that, he arched his hand and walked away.
