110 The war on the Western Front began

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed in July and a half, Luoyang is still calm, Guanglu Xun Xun Shuang suddenly fell seriously ill and died at the court meeting, a bit like throwing a stone into the calm water, causing a ripple, and the water surface returned to calm.

The various ministries that came to help in the war, such as Ma Teng, Han Sui, Zhang Ji, and LΓΌ Bu, continued to garrison in Luoyang, and they could return to various places as long as the rewards of the imperial court were in place.

Especially Ma Teng and Han Sui, because their official positions have been promoted and cannot be promoted, as a way to make up for it, the rewards will be more generous, so that the imperial court needs to find a way to reward the two of them first, and then reward Zhang Ji and Lu Bu.

There was nothing to do, and the fat cavalry general Li Dao invited the commanders of all the departments to take their respective guards to Shanglin Yuan in the western suburbs of Luoyang to hunt.

Shanglin Garden, is the royal garden, dedicated to the Son of Heaven school hunting and patrol hunting, now the hussar general Li Wei asked for the holy order, led the commanders to hunt Shanglin Yuan, no matter what, it is a transgression.

But Li Dao didn't care about this, he looked like a jiashi who was not afraid of the sky falling, and he didn't care at all about the attacks that might be caused by the scholars and courtiers.

For a whole day, driven by a group of guards, everyone showed their magic and shot the prey that was driven out.

There were so many prey in Shanglin Yuan that everyone gained a lot, only Lu Bu didn't shoot anything, not because his bow was inferior to others, but because he didn't take off the big bow hanging on the side of the Saddle of the Red Rabbit at all.

Song Xian, the commander of the personal guard under his command, although his strength is average, his attainments in bow and archery are okay, and at the end of the day, the harvest is not much different from others.

On the way back, everyone rode their horses slowly, and Wei General Li Su and Lu Bu walked side by side, talking as they walked.

As for why Lu Bu was not interested in shooting and hunting, everyone had already asked, and they didn't care, after all, after experiencing the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, everyone had a very intuitive understanding of Lu Bu's martial arts.

At this time, it was already the time of sunset, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the people who were riding slowly, which was extraordinarily warm.

As soon as the team arrived, they were optimistic, and there was a series of voices behind them, "Urgent report, urgent report!" When the guards got out of the way, the messenger urged the horses to gallop by, and ran straight to the hussar general Li Dao.

Li Su's face changed, and he arched his hand towards Lu Bu and said, "Virtuous brother go slowly, go and see what is going on for your brother." ”

Lu Bu was humble, in fact, in his heart, he was also very curious about this.

The team only stayed on the flat road for a short time, and then restarted on the road, but the speed was much faster than that of Fang Cai.

Everyone knows that something big is happening.

At night, Lu Bu learned the news that it was Huangfu Song, the former left-hand cavalry general who was under house arrest in Chang'an by Zhang Ji, who escaped from the predicament, retook control of the old department, and had brought Chang'an under his control.

The biggest impact of this news, of course, is the Zhenxi general Zhang Ji, he also leads the post of Jing Zhaoyin, Chang'an is where Jing Zhaoyin is located, it can be said that it is his old nest, and now the old nest has been taken away by Huangfu Song, this blow is really big enough for him.

Then it was affected, of course, it was Liangzhou Ma Teng and Han Suibu, they returned to Liangzhou in the west, Chang'an was the only way, and there was Huangfu Song, a veteran, entrenched here, which was equivalent to cutting off their way back to the west at once, and cutting off the connection between them and Xiliang's old nest.

If Chang'an cannot be recovered in a short period of time and the passage is opened, no one will think that Xiliang will remain calm.

Because of this news, the atmosphere in Luoyang suddenly changed from calm to solemn, and even the patrol soldiers in the inner and outer cities suddenly more than doubled compared to before.

The hussar general Li Dao also attached great importance to this, and successively convened Ma Teng, Han Sui, Zhang Ji and others to discuss, although Lu Bu did not participate in these things, but as soon as the news came, he would soon know, and it was not because he had more time with Minchan that he did not know about this important matter.

However, knowing that Lu Bu had no intention of participating in the war on the Western Front at all, and even if he wanted to participate, Zhang Ji, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Li Dao and others were afraid that they would not be very happy.

But in Lu Bu's eyes, this matter is of great significance.

Previously, he combined what he knew from later generations and his observations of various units of the Western Liang Army, and believed that after quelling the great danger of the Kwantung Coalition Army, the Western Liang Army would inevitably fall apart, and the result might be more destructive than the collapse of the Kwantung Coalition Army.

Yang Xiu also mentioned this point when he went to see him as Situ Wang Yun's messenger to Tiger Prison Pass, so Lu Bu knew that since Yang Xiu could see this, Situ Wang Yun, Sikong Yang Biao, Taiwei Huang Wan and others had no reason not to see this.

This also means that the collapse of the various departments of the Western Liang Army is a long-awaited opportunity for the scholars and doctors led by Situ Wang Yun and others, so that they can try to subvert the control of the Western Liang Army over the court in one fell swoop.

In this regard, Lu Bu actually has a different opinion, today's world has entered the era of strength is king, the scholars belong to the bureaucracy, and the military liliang in their hands is unusable, even if they can drive Li Dao and others from the court of the Xiliang army, they will soon be controlled by others.

For three days, Lu Bu stayed in the camp in the east of the city, watching the whole development of the situation.

On the fourth day, Zhang Ji led his troops to set off, accompanied by Ma Teng and Han Sui, and the support troops sent by the hussar general Li Wei were commanded by the Wei general Li Su, including the Hedong Taishou Guo Tao.

Lu Bu still had some friendship with them, and early in the morning, he personally took his own soldiers and rushed to the west of the city to see them off.

The morning sun was rising, the sun was shining all over the sky, the army was drawn one by one, all kinds of flags stretched in the morning breeze, except for the occasional neighing of war horses, only the sound of horses' hooves, mixed with dull footsteps.

On the avenue, water had been sprinkled early to prevent dust, but before the army had passed halfway, the dust gradually rose into the air, and soon it was like a mist, shrouded in the marching army, drifting with the autumn wind.

The hussar general Li Dao did not move, and Lu Bu only did not move, just followed the side of the road to eat dust, and finally it was the turn of Zhang Ji and the others of the Chinese army to set off, they gathered together, came to the front of everyone, and immediately said goodbye.

The young general Jin Ma Chao was a little different, after meeting Li Dao, he turned his horse and came to Lu Bu, and said very seriously: "General Wu Yong, I also admire it very much, but one day, I will definitely be able to defeat you!" ”

Lu Bu daxiao, in fact, it is not only him, Li Dao and others are also hahadaxiao after hearing Ma Chao's arrogant words.

Ma Chao's eyes shrunk, holding the spear in his right hand, his face was a little unkind, and he asked loudly with his head sideways: "What, you don't believe it?" ”

Lu Bu replied with a smile: "Okay, the young hero is full of vitality, Lu is waiting for you to challenge!" ”

This is not an agreement, maybe it's just that the young Ma Chao refuses to admit defeat, and when he grows up, he may remember today's bold words, and maybe he has forgotten everything at all.

Ma Chao bowed his hand very chicly, turned the horse around, followed his father Ma Teng, and galloped away.

Their target is Chang'an City, which is in Chang'an City at the moment, and the south of the city was originally a deserted place, but now it is in full swing.

Huangfu Song got out of trouble, and everywhere he went, the old departments, no matter how they were broken up and reorganized by Zhang Ji, all flowed like a trickle to the rivers and seas, and soon regathered behind Huangfu Song's horse.

In this way, Huangfu Song defeated the guards left by Zhang Ji and recaptured Chang'an City.

In the past few days, there have been more and more of Huangfu Song's old troops coming from near Chang'an, coupled with the private troops and subordinates brought by Huangfu Jianshou, Huangfu Li and Yan Xing, the strength of Huangfu Song's account soon reached 10,000 people.

This little bit of strength is still a little less, and Huangfu Song can only hope that he can get a group response from the three counties of Guanzhong everywhere, as for the counties of Hanyang, Longxi and Jincheng in Liangzhou claimed by Yan Xing, Huangfu Song has not counted too much for the time being.

Since dawn, Huangfu Song has been in the big tent of the Chinese army, dealing with all affairs, so busy that he doesn't even have time to eat breakfast. As soon as he finished discussing the city defense matters with Huangfu Jianshou, Huangfu Li and Yan Xing, and was about to take time to eat and drink, he heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the tent sounding rapidly, and immediately the herald rushed in, half-kneeled and said: "Report, the rangers have captured the three messengers from Jincheng to Luoyang, please send them down." ”

What the herald presented was the letter he had collected from the messenger of Jincheng, and Huangfu Song opened it and read it, handed it to Yan Xing, and said with a smile: "Jincheng only learned of your department's movements at this time, and urgently sent someone to report to Han Sui. ”

Yan Xing took it and only looked at it, then handed it over to Huangfu Jianshou, and replied with a smile: "The old general's banner is together, Guanzhong is shaken, and Hanyang is bound to respond, as long as it can defeat Zhang Ji, Ma Teng and Han Suibu, Longxi, Jincheng, it will no longer belong to Ma and Han!" ”
