The former general's palace meeting hall in Yuyang City.

Liu Wei sat at the head of the main hall, and the Wang sisters, dressed in leather armor, straightened up and stood behind him.

The two sisters are dressed as men, and the fiery red Luoyang Army robes on their bodies are like two raging flames, no matter who they are, as long as they look at them, they will have a burning feeling in their hearts.

On the left side of Liu Wei, kneeling sat Pang Tong in an ink-colored costume. On the chest of Pang Tong's shirt, a lifelike golden dragon was embroidered.

The golden dragon embroidered on the clothes of the ministers, if it was in the Tang and Song dynasties hundreds of years later, it would be a great crime of rebellion, and they would definitely be raided and exterminated.

But in the relatively enlightened late Han Dynasty, even if he was a commoner, as long as he had enough financial resources, he could also add this golden dragon pattern to his clothing that only emperors could use in later generations.

In the huge front hall, divided into two columns, sat Yuan Shao, Gongsun Du, and the main generals and ministers of the various armies.

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn, and everyone's eyes were all staring at Liu Wei who was sitting in the first seat.

Looking around at the people in the hall, the expression on Liu Bian's face was very cold, so cold that people couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart.

"Conquer Gongsun Zhan, everyone has worked hard and made great achievements, this king has already said that this time the meritorious deeds will be rewarded, and the Youzhou and Bohai areas will be taken over by the beginning!" After looking around at the crowd, Liu Wei's gaze finally stayed on Yuan Shao's face, and after saying this, he then asked everyone: "Do you have any objections to this?" ”

The hall was quiet, and no one of the people, including Yuan Shao, opened their mouths, but the generals and strategists under Yuan Shao looked at each other with the people under Gongsun Du.

The eyes of both sides were cold, and Sen's cold gazes collided with each other, but they seemed to be about to spark.

"As for Shengji ......" Everyone didn't speak, Liu Wei turned his head to look at Gongsun Du again, and said to him: "Liaodong is located in the northeast border, bordering Dongyi. Dongyi has long had the heart of killing our great man, and this king intends to conquer, but once the army enters Dongyi's territory, the battle line will drag on too long. This king specially allowed Shengji to lead the army to conquer Dongyi, and all the territory obtained was returned to Shengji! As for grain and grass, within three years, it should be supplied from the beginning! ”

"Dongyi cavalry is good at riding and shooting!" Before Liu Bian's words fell, Gongsun Du said to him with a sad face: "The reason why Gongsun Chan had the name of the White Horse General in the past was because the cavalry of the Jizhou Army was quite strong. The white horse righteous servant and the Yanyun iron rider all made the Hu people frightened! Although my Liaodong soldiers are strong and have a high fighting spirit, they are helpless because of the lack of horses, and it is difficult to build a Han iron cavalry that will conquer and win the battle! ”

"Primordial!" He had already discussed the matter of rewarding Gongsun Du, and Liu Wei knew that at present, Gongsun Du mentioned horses, but he was just sitting on the ground and asking for more benefits, so he didn't say anything, turned his head to look at Yuan Shao and said: "The water and grass in Bingzhou and Jizhou are abundant, and the horses are strong. Since Liaodong is short of horses, it has been helped to promote some at the beginning, how about it? ”

"Since His Highness has spoken, His Majesty should follow it!" Holding his fists and bowing, he first responded to Liu Wei, and then Yuan Shao turned his head, looked at Gongsun Du, and said to him: "Five thousand war horses, I don't know if they can be promoted and transferred?" ”

"Five thousand!" A smile appeared on the corner of Gongsun Du's mouth, and he shook his head and said to Yuan Shao: "There are hundreds of thousands of Wuhuan cavalry, and all of them are proficient in riding and shooting. Once I enter Liaodong, how can I resist the Liaodong infantry army? 5,000 cavalry, lined up to meet the enemy, even if the enemy army is broken, how can they take advantage of the victory to pursue? In the area of Bingzhou and Jizhou, there are abundant war horses, and only 5,000 horses were given at the beginning, isn't it ......"

"Ten thousand!" Without waiting for Gongsun Du to finish speaking, Yuan Shao frowned slightly, and said to him: "A certain cavalry is also short of good horses, first, His Royal Highness has an order, and secondly, Shengji and a certain are in-laws, although the cost of 10,000 good horses is quite huge, and it is difficult to raise it for a while, so it will still be sent to Liaodong as soon as possible!" ”

"Thank you so much!" Yuan Shao had already run out of room for what he said, and Gongsun Du knew that no matter how much he said, it would be nothing more than a waste of foam, so he stopped bargaining, arched his fist towards Yuan Shao, and thanked Yuan Shao.

"Youzhou Xinding!" For Gongsun Du to transfer some benefits from Yuan Shao, and when the two discussed properly, Liu Wei said to Yuan Shao and Gongsun Du: "At the beginning, we should rest and recuperate, and return the people to farming." Let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and do not be displaced again! As for Shengji, face Yidi, once Yidi commits a crime, he will immediately counterattack, and he will definitely introduce the war into Yidi's territory, don't let my Han people be slaughtered by Yidi in vain! ”

"Your Highness, rest assured!" Kneeling straight, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Du clenched their fists at the same time, and said to Liu Wei in unison: "Your Majesty will not dishonor His Highness's trust!" ”

Nodding to Yuan Shao and Gongsun Du respectively, Liu Wei's gaze finally stayed on Guan Yu, who was sitting at the bottom of the door.

Guan Yu has no fame, although he is Liu Bei's sworn brother, but in the eyes of the heroes, he is just a white ding. Originally, he was not qualified to enter the hall at all, Liu Wei specially asked Pang Tong to place a seat for Guan Yu, although it was only the lowest position at the door, it was already a great honor for Guan Yu at the moment.

Seeing Liu Wei looking at him, Guan Yu also turned his head to look at Liu Bian, a pair of Danfeng eyes were very small, and he could almost only see the thin eyeliner but could not see his deep eyes.

"General Guan!" After staring at Guan Yu for a moment, Liu Biancai said to him: "Pingyuan has made meritorious contributions to helping this king to level thieves, and this king will definitely be rewarded." It's just that the current Liu County Order is not here, although this king has the intention to reward, but no one has received the reward. When the general returned to the plains, he could inform Liu County that the king was waiting for him in Luoyang. At that time, the general will be rewarded together with Liu County's order! ”

When calling Liu Bei, Liu Wei did not call him "Uncle Huang" as rumored by the outside world, although his words were very polite, he was secretly telling Guan Yu that Liu Bei's so-called royal blood was not recognized at all in his place.

Although Guan Yu said that he was martial and brave, his mind was more delicate than that of ordinary scribes, how could he not hear the deep meaning hidden in Liu's words!

When Liu Wei finished speaking, he clenched his fists, bowed down, and said to Liu Wei: "The last general will return to the plain, and he will tell his brother!" ”

"The big thing has been discussed, if you have nothing else to do, go back to the camp!" Looking around at the people in the room, Liu Wei waved his hand at everyone and announced the end of the discussion.

Everyone in the hall stood up in unison, clenched their fists and bowed, said goodbye to Liu, and exited the front hall one after another.

Lu Bu walked to the door of the front hall, stopped, and tilted his head slightly, as if he wanted to look at Liu Wei, but in the end he didn't turn his head, just stood for a while, and then strode out of the front hall.

After everyone left, Liu Wei looked at the main entrance of the front hall and said to Pang Tong, who was still kneeling on the side: "The matter in the north has been settled, and we should return to Luoyang!" ”

"Your Highness!" Pang Tong clenched his fists, bowed down and saluted Liu Bian, and did not answer Liu Bian's words, but said to him: "Cao Mengde sent Cheng Yu to trick Guo Yan into forming an alliance, and has already led the army into Chang'an!" Li Wei was ambushed, Guo Yan could not withstand the attack of the Yanzhou army, and escaped from Chang'an with his majesty in tow, and is now marching to Luoyang. His Royal Highness returns to Luoyang at this time......"

"Tell Cao Mengde!" Frowning slightly, and muttering for a moment, Liu Wei turned his head to look at Pang Tong and said to him: "Be sure to rescue His Majesty from Guo Yan's hands, and ask him to escort His Majesty back to Yanzhou first, and then welcome His Highness back to Luoyang after this king has dealt with the matter at hand!" ”

"No!" Knowing that Liu Wei was just looking for an excuse to push Liu Xie to Cao Cao, Pang Tong hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed down in response, and did not say anything more.

As Liu Bian's military division, Pang Tong knew that once Liu Biao connected Liu Xie to Luoyang, as the king of Luoyang, there were only two ways to go, one was to turn against Liu Xie and replace him, but in this way, many heroes who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic would take advantage of the situation and cause trouble to the Han Dynasty, and it would be even more difficult to crusade again. The second is to regard Liu Xie as the Son of Heaven, but for a long time, once Liu Xie is in power, Liu Wei, who is most likely to threaten his imperial power, will become a thorn in the flesh that Liu Xie is eager to get rid of.

No matter which angle he stands, Liu Wei can't take Liu Xie to Luoyang at the moment, let alone let Liu Xie get too much contact with the core of Luoyang Army's power.

Cao Cao has the appearance of a hero, but compared with Liu Xie, the current Cao Cao is not too deadly to Liu Wei, and there is no way to hand over Liu Xie to Cao Cao!

Standing up, with his hands behind his back, Liu Wei walked slowly towards the main entrance.

Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who had always stood straight behind him, saw him raise their feet and walk towards the main entrance, and they also followed, walking slowly with him.

Looking at Liu Bian's back, it wasn't until he had walked five or six steps that Pang Tong stood up, quickly followed Liu Bian, and walked a little further back on his left.

Out of the front hall, standing outside the main entrance of the front hall, Liu Wei raised his face, looked over the wall, and looked straight at the Yuyang city wall in the distance.

On the Yuyang city wall, which was empty a few days ago, the battle flags of the Jizhou army were flying with the unique Gangfeng hunting in the north. When the battle flag flew, there was a burst of "hula" sounds.

Under the battle flag, the soldiers of the Jizhou Army, who were wearing strong and stubborn, were standing straight at the waist, staring into the distance like statues.

Gongsun Zhan, who fought against the Yuan family all the year round, has been ambushed, and since then, only Yuan Shao's family is left in Hebei, and the day when Yuan Shao monopolizes Hebei and becomes the overlord of the north has come.

After years of war, almost all the officers and men of the Jizhou Army are looking forward to the end of the war and the fire of war on this land.

Standing in front of the main hall of the former general's mansion, Liu Wei, who was far away from the city wall, could not see the flying battle flags on the city wall and the energetic Jizhou army officers and soldiers.

However, he has a faint feeling in his heart, a kind of vicissitudes of life, things and people.

Before he led the Luoyang army to the expedition, it was Gongsun Zhan, a white horse general who made the Hu people outside the Guanwai fearful, dominate the place. However, in just a few months, the commanding White Horse General has been in a different place, and the once powerful White Horse Yicong and Yanyun Iron Cavalry have also been forever sealed in the dust of history with the defeat of the Jizhou Army.

Liu Wei was in Yuyang City, and allocated the land in the north to Yuan Shao and Gongsun Du, near Chang'an, but at this time a tragic battle was going on.

"Protect Your Majesty!" A military general of the Xiliang Army wearing scaly armor waved a big knife and slashed a Yanzhou soldier who rushed towards him to the ground, and yelled at the soldiers of the Xiliang Army who were fighting with the Yanzhou Army beside him.

"Fall off the horse!" At the moment when his shout just fell, Xiahoudun held a big knife in his hand and rushed towards this general of the Xiliang Army, and when he got closer, with Xiahoudun's shout, the big knife cut out a bright silver light and slashed down towards the top of the head of the general of the Xiliang Army.
