Chapter 202: Yangping Guan collects the hearts of veterans
"What?" Liu Zhang's face changed greatly, he jumped up from the chair and asked, "My eldest brother and second brother participated in the plot to get rid of Li Dao and Guo Yan?" Also involved in Ma Teng, Han Suiqin Wang? ”
"Exactly!" Guo Jia knew that Liu Zhang's brotherhood was deep, but this matter had to be reported. Otherwise, when Liu Zhang later knew that the two brothers died at the hands of Li Dao and Guo Yan, and he, the person in charge of intelligence, did not report it, wouldn't he hate him to death.
"Then my two brothers..."Liu Zhang looked at Guo Jia with a look of hope, hoping to hear good news.
"Alas!" Guo Jia sighed, shook his head, and did not speak.
"How can this be..."Liu Zhang screamed, and the whole person burst out, slamming his fists on the table in front of him. The table made of solid wood clattered and shattered. The dishes on the table fell to the ground with a clatter. Liu Zhang's hands were too strong, and blood dripped down his fingers on the ground.
After being stunned for a long time, Liu Zhang suddenly sat down on the chair, staring straight ahead, two lines of tears slipped down his cheeks, and he only heard him muttering: "How can this be..."
"Husband...", the girls hurriedly supported Liu Zhang, looking nervous.
"Lord, mourn!" Guo Jia was very anxious, but he didn't know how to persuade him.
"Bang dang!" The door was knocked open, and a figure stumbled in, and the person who came turned out to be Liu Mao.
"Fourth brother! You want to avenge the eldest brother and the second brother! Liu Mao only shouted, and then fell to the ground. He was covered in blood, and there were several broken arrows stuck in his back.
"Revenge..."Hearing these two words, Liu Zhang's eyes focused, and his hands were released. Looking at Liu Mao lying on the ground, Liu Zhang swooped over and shouted, "Third brother! Call the doctor..."
Soon, the healer came. not only helped Liu Mao take out the broken arrow, but also helped Liu Zhang's hand bandage. After another half an hour, Liu Mao woke up slowly, and when he saw Liu Zhang, he suddenly burst into tears.
"Fourth brother, the eldest brother is dead, and the second brother is also dead!" Liu Mao hugged Liu Zhang, crying like a child.
"I know, I know everything!" Liu Zhang hugged Liu Mao and couldn't cry. Even if you don't get along well, you will be sad to hear that your brother is dead, not to mention that Liu Zhang's brothers get along well.
"It's Li Dao and Guo Yan!" Liu Mao said viciously: "I, the third brother, is incompetent, the fourth, you have to avenge the eldest brother and the second brother!" ”
"Don't worry!" Liu Zhang gritted his teeth and said, "I want to make Li Dao and Guo Yan into specimens!" ”
"What is a specimen?" Liu Mao looked puzzled.
"You'll know when I make it!" Liu Zhang's face was fierce, and the person standing next to him couldn't help but shudder.
"I don't care what a specimen is, when you take revenge, you have to take me!" Liu Mao pulled Liu Zhang and said, "Otherwise, I'll die for you!" ”
"Uh..." Liu Zhang was a little stunned, this sentence is usually said by women to men. However, Liu Zhang was not in the mood to joke now, he turned to Guo Jia and said: "Feng Xiao, order Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Gan Ning to fight, go out with me to meet Guo Yan, and order Wu Yi to guard Hanzhong and Yan Yan to defend Yangping Pass!" ”
"Yes!" After Guo Jia answered the order, he retreated from the bedroom. He knew that no matter what decision Liu Zhang made at this time, he should not stop it, the hidden anger was the most terrifying, and Guo Jia did not believe that Liu Zhang would become a teacher because of anger.
"Third brother, you take care of your injuries, I'll take Guo Yan to pay tribute to the two brothers first!" Seeing Liu Mao nodding, Liu Zhang also left the bedroom. Since the war is about to start, there are too many things that Liu Zhang needs to prepare. After Liu Zhang left, Liu Mao also fell asleep.
You must know that Liu Mao traveled all the way, and rushed to Chengdu not long after Liu Zhang got the information, and his hard work can be imagined. Coupled with being pursued by the enemy, he was hit by several arrows, but he did not deal with them. It's a blessing that you don't have tetanus and no inflammation! If you don't rest much, you can't recover.
Chang'an, in the Imperial Palace. Guozhang Dong Cheng, Guozhang Fuwan, Taiwei Yang Biao and Liu Xie are secretly meeting.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what is the important matter for you to call your ministers and others to come?" Dong Cheng was born as a military general, and his surname was impatient, so he was the first to ask. It is undeniable that Dong Cheng has many shortcomings, and he is not as calm as he is, but he is loyal.
Liu Xie glanced at Dong Cheng and said: "The three of them are all important ministers of the country, and now that Li Dao and Guo Yan are wreaking havoc, don't you have any ideas?" ”
"This..."Dong Cheng was stunned for a moment, and said proudly: "Your Majesty, the strength of the old minister is not as good as Li Dao and Guo Yan, but now Li and Guo actually provoked the champion Hou and took the initiative to send troops to attack. Take this opportunity, maybe we can take the opportunity to retake Chang'an! ”
"How many soldiers do you have who want to occupy Chang'an?" Fu Wan is also the national abbot, don't look at Liu Xie as just a puppet, but the battle in the harem is still fierce.
"You..." Dong Cheng stared at Fu Wan viciously, but after a while, he himself was deflated. Although Dong Cheng and Fu Wan are both national rulers, Dong Cheng became developed because of his daughter, while Fu Wan married because he was related to the royal family.
You must know that Fu Wan is the seventh grandson of the great Situ Fu Zhan, the lord of "not the marquis", and married Liu Hua, the eldest daughter of Emperor Huan of Han, the eldest princess of Yang'an. Before Liu Xie succeeded to the throne, he was already the ruling Jinwu. After Liu Xie succeeded to the throne, he worshiped the general of the auxiliary country and the three divisions. This kind of status is not comparable to Dong Cheng, a national ruler who relies on his daughter to get in.
"You can't do nothing!" After Dong Cheng was discouraged, he weakly burst out.
"Of course you can't do nothing!" Fu Wan said with a smile: "Now Chang'an is dilapidated, and there is not much military food. While Li Dao, Guo Yan and Liu Zhang were at war, we could contact the princes of all parties to come to King Qin, such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Cao Ying. With their loyalty to the Great Han, they will definitely support Your Majesty very much! ”
"This..."Fifteen or sixteen-year-old Liu Xie was already quite judgmental, and he was also worried that another prince would let him continue to be a puppet. But he also understood that with the power in his hands, there was no chance to escape from the palms of Li Dao and Guo Yan.
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to contact Cao Ying!" Seeing Liu Xie's hesitation, Yang Biao, who had been silent, finally spoke.
"Huh?" Dong Cheng, Fu Wan, and Liu Xie all felt very strange when they heard this, in their hearts, Yuan Shao was the best choice.
"Minister contact Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu!" Fu was stunned for a moment, and immediately made a choice.
"Minister... Contact other Taishou and Thorn History! Dong Cheng was one step slower than Fu Wan, so he had to choose other small princes. Of course, in his heart, most of these small princes would not pay attention to Liu Xie.
"It's... All right! Liu Xie was very helpless, but he felt that even if he was a puppet by Dong Zhuo's side, it was better than letting Li Dao and Guo Yan bully. So, Liu Xie wrote a few edicts and handed them to the three of them, asking them to contact the princes of all parties. As for Liu Zhang, not only did Liu Xie not count on him, but even the three of them didn't think he could defeat Li Dao and Guo Yan.
Just three days after Guo Yan sent out his troops, the three of them ordered people to bring secret edicts to meet the princes, and Liu Zhang also commanded an army of 100,000 and came to Yangping Pass.
"See the lord!" Looking at the group of young people led by Liu Zhang, Yan Yan had mixed feelings. At the beginning, it was the young Liu Zhang who gave him a chance, a chance to become a master. It's a pity that he didn't cherish it. Because Liu Zhang is too young, he is arrogant and strict, and he does not allow himself to surrender to a child. However, when the people who chose to surrender surpassed him, Yan Yan knew how wrong his choice was, but there was no regret in the world.
"General Yan is exempt!" Liu Zhang helped Yan Yan up, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I have worked hard all these years!" I know that the general may still have resentment in his heart, but Yizhou must have a capable general to guard it. All these years, I have always kept the general by my father's side because I believe in the loyalty and integrity of the general. I wonder if the general is still willing to defend Yizhou for me? ”
Looking at Liu Zhang's sincere smile, the resentment in Yan Yan's heart gradually disappeared. It turned out that staying in Yizhou was not because he didn't trust him, but because Yizhou was too important! Yan Yan knelt down on one knee and said: "Whatever the lord orders, the end will be determined by death!" ”
"General Yan is mighty!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "General Yan is the general of Yizhou, with your help, I am relieved!" Yan Yan listened to the order, from now on, I will make you the general of the tiger ben and the marquis of Guan Nei, and if you have merit in the future, you will be rewarded again! ”
"Thank you, my lord!" Yan Yan was excited! Years of grievances seemed to turn into smoke in that instant.
You must know that when Zhang Lu besieged Hanzhong, if he was not moved by Yang Ping's provocation, it would be a lie, but the integrity in his heart and the pride of the generals did not allow him to betray. But now, he has no grievances at all. How many people have exhausted their efforts for the marquis, but he only suffered a little grievance, and he was sealed as the marquis. If he had known this, what would it matter if he had been wronged a little more?
After solving Yan Yan, Liu Zhang's mood was much better. For this veteran, Liu Zhang also has a lot of guilt in his heart. Although Yan Yan's experience was caused by himself, how could there be no influence from Liu Zhang? Now it's time to tighten your face!
patted Yan Yan on the shoulder, Liu Zhang didn't say much. As the army arrived one after another, Liu Zhang ordered them to go out of the customs and station. The 100,000 army camped in front of Yangping Pass, densely packed. Looking at this military situation, even Yan Yan, a veteran, felt a little frightened. Not because of the number of Liu Zhang's army, but because of the momentum of the troops. With Yan Yan's eyes, how can he not see that Liu Zhang brought elite soldiers!
After two more days, the 100,000 army led by Guo Yan finally arrived. Looking at Liu Zhang's subordinates under Yangping Pass, Guo Yan felt Liu Zhang's strength for the first time. However, he has already ridden the tiger, who let him and Li Dao kill Liu Zhang's two brothers!
Guo Yan gritted his teeth and sent an envoy to give Liu Zhang an ultimatum. But Liu Zhang didn't even listen to what the messenger said, and directly beheaded the messenger to destroy the book and sacrifice the flag with the blood of the messenger. When the envoy's head hung high on Yangping Pass, Guo Yan knew that he had to fight Liu Zhang. So, Guo Yan raised a large army, approached Yangping Pass, and called Liu Zhang for war!
