176 Dry wood and fire meet
Lu Bu and his daughters traveled all the way east, to Pingcheng, climbed the white mountain, and hung the great battle between the ancestor Liu Bang and the Xiongnu Mao Dunshan here, and then slowly returned the same way.
The relationship between him and the Empress Dowager He, after that night, was out of control, just like dry firewood and fire, and like thunder in the sky and the fire on the earth.
However, Lu Bu was still very meticulous and meticulous, and Empress Dowager He also fully cooperated, so most people were kept in the dark.
Only the Yan family is a little older, and after a long period of experience, he can see the changes that have taken place in the Empress Dowager He.
But she was confined to the inherent concept, how dare she think that the Empress Dowager He's face is radiant, delicate and moving, thinking about being moistened by rain and dew, and she doesn't dare to doubt her husband Lu Bu, but she is secretly surprised in her heart, and thinks that the Empress Dowager He has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and this time she can come out to relax, so she is in a good mood.
At this point, even the Empress Dowager He, when she was alone, couldn't help but secretly marvel at Lu Bu's boldness, because when the two were together, whether it was in the wilderness under the moonlit night or secretly flowing into her camp, Lu Bu was completely like a different person, not like a courtier at all, not shrinking back at all, but extremely open.
This also made the Empress Dowager He deeply taste the male. Huan Nu. The bliss of love, secretly compared Lu Bu with the first emperor Liu Hong, abandoning her status, she had to admit that in this regard, Lu Bu should be more manly, so that she deeply understands what is called desire. Immortal desire. Death, what is called resistance. Stalking. Soft.
In the past, she did everything she could to do her best, even if she was not happy, she had to pretend to be happy to make the first emperor Liu Hong happy, but now, she doesn't need to pretend at all. It's a matter of course, and it's a matter of course.
Lu Bu handed over all the aftermath affairs on the grassland to Xu Shu, Zhang Liao and others, and he escorted Empress Dowager He and her party all the way back to Jinyang.
Therefore, between him and Empress Dowager He, there is time and opportunity to secretly enjoy fun together.
In the blink of an eye, autumn goes to winter,
In Jizhou, after Yuan Shao fully accepted Han Fu's subordinates and territory. began to launch a counteroffensive against Gongsun Zhan, who led the army deeply, and in the whole few months, the two fought in Jizhou, and each had a victory, and now. Gongsun Zhantun soldiers went to Quyang in Julu County and hoarded military rations in Lunu, Zhongshan County. The next round of the offensive is brewing.
And Yuan Shao's general Yan Liangwen is ugly. The troops were stationed in Wuxian and Fucheng respectively, and Dayou and Gongsun Zhan confronted each other to wait for Jiashi in the coming year.
Lu Bu was making every effort to digest and absorb the vast pastures occupied outside Yanmen Pass, as well as the many Xianbei tribes on it, and could only keep a close eye on the battle between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao in Jizhou. But he couldn't intervene at all.
He asked a lot of people, but he didn't ask where the Pan River was, and the boundary bridge. He had already learned that it was not actually a fixed place name, as long as there happened to be a river at the junction of the state, county, county and township, and the bridge built there would generally be called a boundary bridge.
Now he is convinced that the butterfly effect has affected the occupation of Jizhou, and the battle of the boundary bridge, which should have happened in winter, is now afraid that it is impossible to happen, and after the Jizhou battle situation falls into a stalemate, what is the future trend, Lu Bu can no longer judge from memory.
And the war situation in Jizhou has also affected Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou.
Gongsun Zhan united with Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai to besiege Jizhou's jiashi, if it weren't for the Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao's strong advice, and Liu Dai was also aiming at Luoyang, otherwise the north and south would be attacked, Yuan Shao would indeed be difficult to resist. Qingzhou Mu Kong Rong did not respond to Gongsun Zhan's proposal, but if Yuan Shao's army was defeated by Gongsun Zhan, he would not mind sending troops to Jizhou to get a piece of the pie.
Lu Bu's eyes were mainly focused on Hedong County at this time, if it weren't for Jia Xu and Xu Shu's opposition, he couldn't wait to send troops now, all in Hedong.
The changes in Luoyang have also been learned by those who are interested, the generals of the Xiliang Army, Hua Xiong, Duan Xuan, Wang Fang, Yang Ding, etc., have been detained in Luoyang for several months, and have not returned to the passes where they are stationed, which is enough to convey a lot of information, and it is precisely based on this that Jia Xu and Xu Shu believe that once Lu Bu is fully in charge of Hedong, it will pose a threat to Li Guo and others in Luoyang, so that they can temporarily stop fighting and unite with the outside world.
And as long as Li Guo does not stop fighting, when the time comes, it will be all based on Hedong, which is just a matter of effort.
However, Yuzhou Mu Yuan Shu, after being expelled from Nanyang by Zhang Ji and Liu Biao's two-way attack, did not have such patience, he ambitiously united with Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai to form a large army, once again stationed in sour jujubes, watching the tiger prison.
The leading general is Sun Jian, the general under Yuan Shu's account, the original Yuzhou pastor.
Such an urgent military situation was transmitted to Luoyang, and Li Wei immediately summoned Guo Tai and Guo Yan to discuss countermeasures.
In the hussar general's palace, the huge hall is already a huge hall, only three people are seated, it seems extraordinarily empty, and now the general of Zhengdong Guo Yan, his temperament has changed greatly, and he is no longer as usual, he fully supports the hussar general Li Dao, but also began to bargain for interests, and to the DPRK and the army, and install many relatives and old friends.
Therefore, at this moment, although the lights and candles are bright, the table is full of delicacies, and the wine is fragrant, the atmosphere is very dignified.
Li Dao was deeply puzzled by the two of them being so wary, but he was helpless, so he could only ask people to withdraw the wine and delicacies and discuss the business one by one.
The main thing is how to deal with the army led by Sun Jian.
After General Li Dao finished speaking, Guo Yan sat still, Guo Tai's eyes looked at the void, and they didn't say a word, Li Dao couldn't help but be a little annoyed, snorted coldly, and said: "The Kwantung rebels are rising again, what do the two generals think?" β
Guo Yan glanced at him, and replied in a tone that has always had no ups and downs: "Now that the new cast of the imperial court is not strong, and the treasury is empty, I am afraid that it will be difficult to summon reinforcements to King Qin, so I can only hold on to the passes around Luoyang, and after a long time, the Kwantung rebels will be unable to continue, and they will retreat." β
"General Zhengdong is right!" Guo Tai echoed, "According to Tai's opinion, why not send an envoy to Beihai and Xiapi to seal Kong Rong and Tao Qian, as long as the two of them accept the seal of the imperial court, Liu Dai and Yuan Shu have to have some concerns." β
Li Wei nodded yes, adopted the suggestions of the two, and continued: "To guard the Tiger Pass, you need a general, Hua Xiong is still in Luoyang, and he continues to guard the Tiger Pass, what do the two generals think?" β
Guo Yan and Mrs. Guo were noncommittal about this proposal.
A few months ago, Li Wei secretly ordered Hu Feng, the commander of the cavalry, to kill the general Fan Chou in front of the public, and put Hu Zhen to prison and executed, and was worried that other Xiliang generals were dissatisfied and led their troops to mutiny, so Hua Xiong, Duan Xuan, Wang Fang, Yang Ding and others were all detained in Luoyang.
Nowadays, except for Xuanyuan Pass, which is still the general Han Xian and Yang Feng under Guo Tai's account, the rest such as Tiger Prison Pass, Mengjin, Wushejin, Yique Pass, and Dagu Pass are all Li Dai's cronies, and only Hangu Pass is Guo Yan's cronies.
Therefore, the attitude of Guo Yan and Guo Tai shows that they are unwilling to get involved in Li Wei's family affairs, since he wantonly promoted his relatives and former officials and replaced them with the generals of the Xiliang Army, the Tiger Prison Pass and other passes were also considered by Guo Yan and Guo Tai to be Li Wei's business alone.
Li Dao felt quite helpless about this, and privately realized that what he did a few months ago was not too much.
The discussion ended hastily, Li Wei thought about it alone, and still felt that the Tiger Prison Pass was very important, and he was afraid that it would not be appropriate to rely on Hu Feng, the commander of the cavalry, so he immediately ordered someone to summon Hua Xiong and others.
After a short time, the four of Huaxiong were called and met at the door, and they only made eye contact with each other, and no one said a word.
After being detained in Luoyang for several months, even fierce generals like Hua Xiong have become silent at this time, and their eyes are much gentler, less powerful than before, as for Wang Fang, Yang Ding, and Duan Xuan, they are even more slightly blessed and have become much whiter.
The hussar general Li Wei was very polite, warmly beckoned the four of them to take their seats, and on the desk, steaming food and wine were once again on the table.
The four of Huaxiong are not like Guo Yan and Guo Tai, as soon as the hussar general Li Dao greeted them, they didn't care about the image at all, and chewed on the case, not caring at all whether Li Dao was drugged in it.
Li Wei was very satisfied with this, and he felt that this was the true nature and true temperament of a Xiliang man.
After a short time, the four of Huaxiong were full of wine and food, and they were all very embarrassed to laugh and salute Li Wei.
After the maidservant was cleaned up, Li Dao Haha smiled and asked softly: "Previously, the imperial court was considerate of the generals running around, so the Son of Heaven specially decreed that you should stay in Luoyang for a while longer. β
Yang Ding was still the first to get up, came to Li Wei's case, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "The lowly Xie Hussar General cares, the lowly one eats and drinks well and sleeps well in Luoyang, but now even the fat on his waist has grown. β
The three of Huaxiong were not ambiguous, they immediately got up, came to Yang Ding's body, knelt down as usual, and expressed their loyalty loudly.
Li Dao hahadaxiao, nodded and said: "Okay, Dao knows that the four generals are brave and loyal, and there are no distractions in their hearts, and now the imperial court intends to let the four return to the passes where they are stationed, to deter Xiaoxiao, and to defend the imperial court, are the four generals willing?" β
The four of them immediately thanked them, and before Yang Ding and the three of them stood up, Hua Xiong said loudly: "There is a request for humiliation, please ask the hussar general for permission." β
Li Wei raised his eyebrows, quite surprised, "oh", and asked, "Okay, what's the matter?" Speaking of which. β
"A few months ago, the humble duty was ordered by the holy order and the hussar general, and enjoyed the blessings in Luoyang, the old wife was dull, and the hussar general was not good-hearted, and fled in a panic, and disappeared.
As soon as these words came out, Duan Xuan, Yang Ding, and Wang Fang were not fuel-efficient lamps, so they immediately echoed and asked Li Wei for a reward.
Li Dao was in a good mood, hahadaxiao, stood up, helped the four of them up one by one, and replied in a loud voice: "Okay, good, this is the negligence of Dai, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, as long as the generals are brave and loyal and serve the imperial court, don't say that the beauty of the mansion is the glory and wealth, and the high-ranking officials and marquis also have everything!"
