Chapter 164: Collecting Gan Ning's training and kidnapping
Liu Zhang looked at Gan Ning for a long time, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Xingba, I remember that you seem to be the county of Shujun!" How can you say that no prince dares to use you? ”
"Lord Liu Yan?" Gan Ning shook his head and said, "Lord Liu is indeed good!" But it is too old, and if he were thirty years younger, I would be faithful to him, and his son, I am not familiar with. So as not to cast the pearl secretly, let's go back and talk about it! ”
"Actually, Lord Liu Yan's son is still very good!" Liu Zhang poured a bowl of wine and glared fiercely, laughing at Dian Wei and Zhao Yun on the side.
Gan Ning laughed and said: "If it is the son of Lord Liu Yan, half of Brother Ji Yu, I will immediately take my brothers to join him!" ”
"Is that true? If I were a prince, would Xingba be willing to vote? Liu Zhang's eyes burned, staring at Gan Ning a little flustered.
"Seriously!" Gan Ning gritted his teeth and said, "Who doesn't want to make a contribution?" Am I just trying to be so messy? It's just that the princes of the world, there are not many who can be looked down upon by me! ”
"Xingba! Gather your people and follow me to Chengdu! Liu Zhang patted Gan Ning on the shoulder and said, "From today onwards, you will be the captain under my command!" ”
"Are you really Lord Liu Yan's son?" Gan Ning had already guessed Liu Zhang's identity, but he didn't dare to be sure.
"I am Guangluxun, the hussar general and the state pastor, and the champion Hou Liu Zhang." Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Recently, I helped my father Yizhou Mu Liu Yan to sort out the affairs in the state, and suddenly saw the information of Xingba, and I couldn't bear the dust of the pearl, so I came to meet." I don't want to fall in love with Xingba, and I stay for two months! Now I will return to Chengdu, if Xingba does not give up, how about I play for Dahan? ”
"The lord will not give up, and would rather follow the work of dogs and horses!" Gan Ning was very moved in his heart, and he immediately bowed down.
Gan Ning's surname is like this, when others treat him solemnly, he will fall in love with each other, and he can go to the soup for it. Now that Liu Zhang is handed over as a state pastor, a clan relative, and a hussar general, how can Gan Ning not be moved? You must know that Gan Ning has always been despised by others because of his perverse behavior, and even his old father is quite disliked. If it weren't for Gan Ning, who was the lineage of the Gan family, it is estimated that his father would have given up on him a long time ago.
Since Gan Ning worshiped Liu Zhang as his father, he immediately summoned the young men who wandered with him in Pingyueli, except for those who were unwilling to go to Chengdu with Gan Ning, there were more than 800 people. Liu Zhang ordered Gan Ning to take these 800 people to read a battalion, and the name was: "Jinfan". Since then, all the warships of Gan Ning's department have taken Shu brocade as their sails, and they are embroidered with tigers or flying bears!
Returning to Chengdu with Gan Ning, Liu Hong had been dead for more than a month, Liu Bian successfully ascended the throne as the emperor, and He Lingsi also became the queen mother. Just when He Jin and the Ten Constant Servants were disturbing one after another, Yihe Erzhou was unusually calm. As for He Jin's edict to recruit foreign ministers into Beijing, it had already been used as a rag by Liu Zhang.
Of course, Liu Zhang was not idle, and after getting the grain from Yizhou, he began to reorganize the army again. First of all, Liu Zhang divided the Tiger Camp into two parts. Part of it is still the Tiger Ben battalion, led by Huang Zhong, Huang Xu is the deputy general, the other part is handed over to Guan Yu to command, Zhou Cang is the deputy general, and then it becomes a battalion, the name is: Qinglongwei. The two armies were 20,000 men each. Then, Liu Zhang, also known as Zhao Yun and Gan Ning, expanded the Jinfan Battalion and the Huwei Battalion to 20,000. Liu Zhang had five troops and 100,000 horses.
Of course, although there are many people, the combat effectiveness has decreased. Liu Zhang ordered Zhang Ren to be in charge of training in Chengdu, and asked Zhao Lei to rush to Jinyang to recruit soldiers and train people. As for the original generals of Liu Yan, Liu Zhang collected all their troops, cut them down, and trained them in a unified manner, and all Yizhou generals had to join the training, with Zhang Ren as the instructor. Anyone who is unqualified will be kicked out of the Yizhou Army.
It took four months for this big move to bear fruit. Jia Long, the former general under Liu Yan's command, was dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's dictatorship, so he left the Yizhou Army and his whereabouts are unknown. There is also a person named Zhao Wei, because of the conflict with Gan Ning, he couldn't see Liu Zhang reusing Gan Ning, and he also left with Jia Long. Since then, Liu Zhang has completely mastered the two states.
"Report to the lord, Mr. Guo is invited!" Liu Zhang was handling military affairs in the barracks, and a small colonel found him, and Liu Zhang immediately went with the junior colonel to see Guo Jia.
"See the lord! There is news in Luoyang! Seeing Liu Zhang, Guo Jia immediately took out a piece of information from his arms and handed it over. It turned out that Guo Jia was ordered by Liu Zhang, relying on Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping, and Mi Jia to establish an intelligence agency, but the name of the intelligence agency has not yet been officially established.
After receiving the information, Liu Zhang read it carefully. Gradually, his originally smiling face became colder and colder, and after reading the information, his face turned blue. Seeing that Liu Zhang's face was wrong, Guo Jia asked cautiously, "Lord, what happened?" ”
"Haven't you seen it?" Liu Zhang asked coldly.
Guo Jia nodded, and Liu Zhang forcibly held back the anger in his heart and handed him the information. After reading it, Guo Jia was shocked and said, "Dong Zhongying'an dares to do this? ”
"Not only did he dare, he did!" Liu Zhang said angrily: "Fengxiao, you hold the pen and listen to me." ”
"Yes!" Guo Jia laid out the cloth, dipped the brush with ink, and nodded at Liu Zhang.
"Dong Zhuo!" Liu Zhang said coldly: "No matter how presumptuous you are in Luoyang, you will be sent to Yizhou within one month, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" ”
"This..."Guo Jiabi walked the dragon and snake, and after writing, he looked at Liu Zhang with some surprise. You must know that Dong Zhuo is now the prime minister, Liu Zhang actually speaks in a commanding tone, if Dong Zhuo really sends out a few Empress Dowager He, what face does he have?
Guo Jia said with some hesitation: "Lord, is this remark polite, after all, Dong Zhuo is not only the prime minister, but also holds the surname of Empress Dowager He and others!" ”
"Feng Xiao thinks that if I am polite, Dong Zhuo will give away the Empress Dowager He?" Liu Zhang shook his head and said, "Give him three points of color, he will definitely open a dyeing workshop!" That's it! I will make Dong Zhuo dare not do anything to Empress Dowager He! ”
"What is the lord going to do?" Guo Jia was very puzzled.
"I heard that Dong Zhuo's family is still in Liangzhou, so I ordered Zhang Fei to lead the overlord to ride with me!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Catch Dong Zhuo's wife, son and daughter, even if Dong Zhuo refuses to give in, he can ensure the safety of Empress Dowager He and others, he will not be killed!" ”
Guo Jia wrote the letter and sent it to Luoyang. Walking out of the Thorn Mansion, Liu Zhang immediately called Dian Wei and Zhang Fei, and ordered the overlord to ride to Liangzhou.
Six days later, Longxi was in the omen, and a cavalry broke the silence of dusk, and the person who came was Liu Zhang.
"Enemy attack!" Lin Zhaocheng was in a panic, and the gate slowly closed. If the city gate is closed, Liu Zhang, although he has 20,000 cavalry, can only return.
"Die for me!" A burst of cheers sounded, Dian Wei held a double halberd, and was the first to jump on the suspension bridge and kill at the city gate. When did the soldiers who were closing the gate see such a fierce and wicked man, and in fright, those soldiers ignored the city gate and dispersed. Dian Wei cut the rope of the suspension bridge, and Liu Zhang didn't even pause, and went directly into the city.
"How to get to Dong Zhuo's mansion?" The city gate guard had already been caught by Zhang Fei, and he saw Zhang Fei pinching his neck and asking. The city gate guards couldn't even breathe, how could they answer, Zhang Fei was angry, and increased his strength a little more.
"Yide, he's dying!" Looking at the city gate guards who were already rolling their eyes, Liu Zhang looked helpless.
"Uh..." Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and quickly let go of his hand. The gatekeeper fell to the ground, gulping for air.
"Why don't you say it soon?" Zhang Fei saw that the city gate guards were only concerned about breathing, and his hand reached out again.
"Don't! I say! The gatekeeper was frightened and said, "From here go to the left, go through the alley, turn right, and..."
"Long-winded! Lead the way! Liu Zhang was a little impatient, Zhang Fei clamped the guard under the armpit, and rode forward to lead the way. Under the guidance of the guards, Liu Zhang and the others finally came to the Dong Mansion, and the poor guards had been killed by Zhang Fei.
"Who are you, do you know what kind of place this is!" Seeing the army, the Dong family slaves were not afraid at all, and they dared to step forward and point at Liu Zhang to reprimand.
"Tell all Dong Zhuo's family members to come out!" Liu Zhang sneered: "If there is one less, Ben Hou will kill everyone in the Dong Mansion, and there will be no chickens and dogs!" ”
"What a guts... Uhh
"Dare to ask this general, who are you?" A ten-year-old woman with gorgeous hair walked out with the support of several female dependents. Liu Zhang doesn't need to ask to know that this old lady must be Dong Zhuo's mother.
"Old Madam Dong is invited!" Liu Zhang bowed and saluted: "A certain is the champion Hou Liu Zhang!" ”
"My son often said that the champion Hou is a young hero, why do you want to embarrass us women and children today?" Dong Zhuo's wife was very human, and she was decisive when she was young. Now she is under siege, but she is still very calm.
"I don't want to embarrass you!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Dong Zhuo used to be a subordinate of his own family, although he didn't have any friendship, but he had the righteousness of a comrade. Now that he has done a lot of things in Luoyang, he doesn't want to care about it, and he doesn't care about it. Empress Dowager He was as kind to Ben Hou, and Dong Zhuo abolished her, so it was just that. But Dong Zhuo even insulted her, and even insulted Fang Erba's niece at that time! It's tolerable, it's unbearable! Therefore, Ben Hou wants to invite Mrs. Dong's family to be a guest there! If Dong Zhuo dares to bully Benhou's widowed sister-in-law again, then I'm sorry! ”
"The sins of heaven are forgivable, but the sins of oneself cannot be lived!" Old Madam Dong sighed: "It seems that the old body has no choice!" ”
"Old lady, don't worry!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Ben Hou only wants to exchange a few for his widowed sister-in-law and orphaned nephew, as long as Dong Zhuo abides by his duty, Ben Hou doesn't want to go against him." After all, Dong Zhuo is the Duke of Zhou or Wang Mang, Ben Hou doesn't know yet! ”
"Can you allow the old man and others to pack up a few changes of clothes?" Mrs. Dong saw that Liu Zhang was very talkative, so she wanted to delay time.
"Yes!" Liu Zhang had already seen a house slave running to report the news, if he hadn't let him go, how could the house slave run away? Since he came to catch Dong Zhuo's family, he wanted Dong Zhuo to know, otherwise how could Dong Zhuo throw a rat bogey?
