Huangfu Song was finally persuaded by Zhao Yun and agreed to be escorted by Zhao Yun to transport all the wealth and grain, grass and armor stored in the palace to Changling City, which was close to Chang'an.

Changling City, north of the Wei River, forty miles from the western capital of Chang'an, is currently occupied by Xu Rong's army.

Hundreds of poor women in Yiwu who were raised by Dong Zhuo were also taken in by Zhao Yun and taken away together. Zhao Yun hadn't figured out how to properly settle them for the time being, but he felt that it was really cruel to dismiss these women on the spot. Many of them no longer have families, and if Zhao Yun doesn't care about them, he is afraid that he will not be able to survive in this chaotic world.

In order to dispel Huangfu Song's doubts, Zhao Yun took the initiative to allocate 3,000 cavalry to Huangfu Song and ordered them to give up their war horses as pack horses to transport various materials in the dock. In this way, Huangfu Song doesn't have to worry about Zhao Yun suddenly attacking him when he is halfway down, and he will "eat black and eat black".

In doing so, there is another advantage, that is, you can rush back to Chang'an as soon as possible, so as not to delay the big event.

Zhao Yun fooled Huangfu Song to return to Chang'an, not to let him see the scenery, but to mobilize the 5,000 infantry under Huangfu Song's command to contribute to the attack on Li Dao and Guo Yan.

After Zhao Yun came to Chang'an with Liu He, he first helped Liu He annex the 5,000 Xiliang soldiers under Li Meng, and then rescued Xu Rong, and easily pulled Liu He's more than 4,000 infantry under Xu Rong's command, and now brought the 5,000 soldiers and horses of Huangfu Song back to Chang'an, which is equivalent to nearly 15,000 more people out of thin air. If we add the 10,000 Shenxi troops that Tian Chou brought from Danshui to Chang'an, the number of troops available for mobilization under Liu He will be 35,000.

35,000 people is not a small number, and if it is used properly, it may not necessarily lose to the 90,000 soldiers and horses of Li Dao and Guo Yan.

Don't forget, there are still nearly 20,000 troops left behind in Chang'an City, and there are still 15,000 troops under Duan Xuan, who is stationed in Duling.

Because he needed to go on the road with a large number of supplies and wealth, the time it took for Zhao Yun to return to Changling from Yixian was at least three days. In the past three days, there was an undercurrent inside and outside Chang'an City, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and a great change was just around the corner.

Situ Wang Yun now does not have the flamboyance and arrogance that he had when he killed Dong Zhuo, he has already turned gray in just ten days, and at this time, looking at the dense siege army outside the city, he really can't think of any idea of retreating.

The banner played by Li Dao and Guo Yan was to avenge Dong Zhuo, and he was the mastermind of killing Dong Zhuo, so the day Chang'an City was broken was the time when he Wang Yun died.

Wang Yun dared to calculate a peerless ruthless person like Dong Zhuo, and naturally he was also a guy who was not afraid of death, but he didn't want to die at the hands of Dong Zhuo's subordinates. If he dies like this, it will be equivalent to a tie with Dong Zhuo, and after Wang Yun went to the Netherworld to see Dong Feizi, it is estimated that the two of them will see each other and smile and enmity.

Ma Riyan, as the captain of the dynasty, is the nominal generalissimo of the Han Dynasty, and he should be fully responsible for the defense of Chang'an City at this time, but in fact, he does not even have a soldier who directly listens to the dispatch, so he can only accompany Wang Yun to stand on the head of Chang'an City and blow the cold wind.

Wang Yun said with a displeased face: "Alas, I don't know what Liu He is doing outside the city, I haven't heard from him until now, but I just saw the cavalry of Youzhou turning around outside the city a few times, and I didn't see them really fighting with Li Wei and Guo Yan's troops, what kind of fight is this?" ”

"Since the cavalry from Youzhou has come to Chang'an, Liu He must be nearby, and if he doesn't show up now, there must be a reason not to show up. Although the cavalry under his command did not fight fiercely with Li Dao and Guo Yan, they played a very obvious role in diversion, and the strength of Li Guo's thief army to attack the city was significantly weakened in the past few days. Ma Riyan explained for Liu He and seemed to be full of confidence in Liu He.

Wang Yun said leisurely: "I have already asked Cai Bojiao to be put back in the mansion a few days ago, and I don't know if he has the life to Liu He as his father-in-law." ”

"I'm optimistic about this family business, and it is also a beautiful thing for Liu He to marry the talented girl Cai Zhaoji. Why don't you wait for him to enter the city this time, and then make the decision for him and handle this family business? Ma Riyan looked forward to it.

"You're thinking too much. Now let's think about how to make Li Dao and Guo Yan retreat, if Li Dao and Guo Bi break through Chang'an, I'm afraid that none of us will be able to hide at that time, and we will all become the swords of the Xiliang soldiers. Wang Yun sighed and said a little pessimistically.

Ma Riyan said confidently: "Chang'an City is built strong and tall, and the moat is very wide and deep, and it is not easy for the thief army to break the city. As long as there are no spies in the city, Li Dao and Guo Yan should not be able to enter. ”

"I'm worried about this now, when I sent Huangfu Song to lead the army to Yiwu to kill Dong Zhuo, it seems that there are some mistakes. Now many of the forbidden troops in the city are Dong Zhuo's old troops, if it weren't for Lu Fengxian's deterrence, I'm afraid that they would have colluded with the rebels outside the city. ”

"I understand why you want to send Huangfu Song to Yixian, because only Huangfu Song will not privately swallow Dong Zhuo's huge wealth and grain, grass and armor hidden in Yiwu, if you send Lu Fengxian's subordinates, I am afraid that it will be a sheep into the tiger's mouth, and nothing will be left for the court at that time."

"Now that Huangfu Song is trapped in Yiwu and can't get out, we can only rely on Lu Fengxian to guard Chang'an, but this person is definitely not a person who can be trusted, I am afraid that there will be a lot of right and wrong in the future." Wang Yun saw Lu Bu's tiger and wolf nature very clearly, and knew that Lu Dao could not rely on Lu Bu for a long time.

"So, this time, no matter what, let Liu He enter Chang'an. With Liu He's status as a member of the royal family, as well as the prestige and status of his father Liu Yu, plus the 10,000 soldiers and horses he brought, it was enough to suppress Lu Bu, lest this person have troops and self-respect in Chang'an! "Ma Riyan is not confused at all, he knows how to drive tigers and devour wolves.

"Well, Liu He is still trustworthy. If he can solve Li Dao and Guo Yan for us this time, the old man will find a high position for him in the court, so that he can gain fame and fortune! ”

At the head of Chang'an City, the two bigwigs were talking about Lu Bu and Liu He, and within Tongguan, two hundred and fifty miles away from Chang'an, Liu He suddenly sneezed a few times.

"I'm going, it's getting colder, and it looks like I'm going to have to put some clothes on me." Liu He muttered and walked down from the head of Tongguan City to the place where he lived temporarily.

"Childe, Li Meng said he wanted to see you." Zhang Yi came to Liu He's house and reported to him.

"Oh, what can he do when he sees me at this time?"

"Perhaps, he wants to be loyal to you."

"Hah, and this kind of good thing? If he really bows to me, do you think I will accept it? ”

Zhang Yi suggested: "Gongzi might as well agree to come down first, but these Xiliang soldiers can no longer let him lead, you can send him to Gongzi's 1,000 cavalry as the commander, which can not only appease the Xiliang soldiers, but also prevent Li Meng from plotting against him." ”

"Hey, you're a good idea! The 1,000 Youzhou cavalry is Zilong's guard left to me, and all the soldiers are native Youzhou Han people's children, and they will definitely not be abducted by Li Meng. ”

Zhang Yi asked Liu He and said, "Childe, then I'm going to bring Li Meng over now?" ”

Liu He shook his head: "Don't worry about it first, let's hang Li Meng for a day." If he wanted to see me, he would have seen me at once, wouldn't it seem that we were a little anxious, and his little tail would not have reached to the sky by then! ”

"Everything is at the behest of Childe."

Zhang Yi thought to himself that the eldest prince was not a good person, so he pondered people's hearts, and he didn't know if he had been pondered and calculated by him at the beginning?

Liu He frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Do you think we dare to take these Xiliang soldiers to Chang'an to deal with Li Dao and Guo Yan?" ”

Zhang Yi was taken aback by Liu He's bold proposal, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Childe, don't do it!" You are the son of a daughter, you can't sit down, you are now the key to solving the crisis in Chang'an, if there is a little mistake in security, you will become a sinner through the ages. ”

"Alas, I'm still worried that Zilong and Guo Jia are not strong enough. Although Tian Chou brought 10,000 infantry from Danshui, he was still at an absolute disadvantage compared to Li Dao and Guo Yan's troops. This bureau in Chang'an is not easy to break! ”

"Childe, let's stay in Tongguan with peace of mind and wait for the news from Chang'an. Some things are good as long as we do our best, in case Li Dao and Guo Yan break through Chang'an, then we will guard the choke point to Luoyang, and we can also save some people from fleeing to Kanto. ”

"Well, that's it. I'm going to Chang'an now, but it's causing trouble for them, and after everything has a result, let's enter Chang'an with infinite scenery and swagger! Liu He finally pressed the impulse in his heart and decided to continue to stay in Tongguan as his shrunken turtle.

Sometimes, being the lord does not have to be on the front line in everything, just like Liu He has now given the power to solve the Chang'an problem to Zhao Yun and Li Yan, but he is the same as the last time when Gongsun Zan led the army to attack Jicheng, hiding in Tongguan and doing nothing. The more he trusted and reused his subordinates so much, the more his subordinates felt that they were motivated to follow Liu He, and the effect was actually better than when he personally went to Chang'an to take command.

For example, now, because Liu He is far away from Chang'an, Zhao Yun doesn't have to worry about his safety at all, and he can go to Yiwu to see Huangfu Song with confidence and boldness, and realize this super unexpected surprise for Liu.

The wealth and food armor left by Dong Zhuo are now in the hands of Zhao Yun and Guo Jia, although they will not eat and wipe the emperor Song clean like Lu Bu's subordinates, but in the end it will not be too much to be handed over to the Chang'an treasury.

After all, Liu He led 10,000 cavalry to Chang'an this time, and he was not a volunteer, and those soldiers who were killed and injured in the battle needed to be compensated, and if Liu He wanted to stay in Chang'an and Luoyang for a long time, he must also have money and food in his hands.

The wealth and money left by Dong Zhuo were scavenged by his subordinates from the Luoyang area and the Guanzhong region to honor him, and now it is impossible to return them to the thousands of people who have been victimized, so it can only be regarded as the best result if the virtuous people live in it and use this wealth to do some good things for the people of the world.

Although Liu He is a little obscene, it is undeniable that he really wants to do something for the poor people in his heart.
