Zhang Xiu didn't care about this, and asked the Fa Zheng with a smile! "What is the filial piety to dodge the dam?" ”

Fa Zheng replied: "Whether it is Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu or Cao Cao, there is not much difference between them who gets the Son of Heaven for the lord, but the lord pities the Son of Heaven and seeks to take the land of Luoyang." ”

After a pause, Fa Zheng continued: "Luoyang is the old capital, since it was burned down by Dong Zhuo, the capital was moved to Chang'an, and Luoyang was abandoned. However, since Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang. The princes from all over the country did not dare to enter Luoyang, but they were afraid that if they took the land of Luoyang, they were afraid of falling into the truth. As a result, he was besieged by the rest of the princes. However, if the lord has the Son of Heaven, he can restore the name of the old capital and take down the land of Luoyang. And if the Kwantung princes wanted to take the son of heaven from the lord's hands, they had to agree to the lord's request to restore Luoyang. At that time, Luoyang will be dilapidated, and it will be unbearable to let the Son of Heaven move the capital in the name of the capital, and then which prince will get the Son of Heaven. Let the Son of Heaven move the capital to which princes' territory, this lord doesn't have to worry. The lord got the land of Luoyang, and Guanzhong got it, and then took the Hongnong and Hangu Pass areas, and then the general's territory could be cultivated, and then Hedong County was taken in the north. And Yuan Shao of Hanoi County only took the Tiger Prison Pass as a symbol, and took the land east of the Tiger Prison, and the west of the Tiger Prison was close to Luoyang. Then the lord can defend against the attack of the Kwantung princes by the Tiger Prison Pass and the Bishui Pass, and there are Taihang Mountains as a barrier in the north and Wancheng as a gateway in the south, so it will be much easier to enter Fengyuan in the future. ”

Jia Xu heard it, and nodded and said: "What Xiaozhi said is very true, and Luoyang is the old capital, I believe that as long as after a few years of recuperation, the prosperity of the day can be restored. ”

Zhang Xiu heard it, high-fived and praised: "Great goodness." In addition, although Cao Cao is now only one person in the army, intending to welcome the Son of Heaven, but the Yuan brothers cannot be ignored, Wen He continued to send spies to inquire about the news. ”

Jia Xu heard it and responded: "No." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, and said: "This time, in addition to saving the Son of Heaven, we also have to take down Guanzhong." Kuaima ordered Xu Huang to lead the 3,000 Blood Blade Battalion to take Chang'an along the Meridian Valley Trail. Losses are not counted. To take Chang'an off, just take Chang'an off. Komeito will be credited. In addition, Huang Zhong was ordered to lead 40,000 foot soldiers out of Guanzhong through the valley, and after passing out of Guanzhong, he divided his troops, first sent some soldiers to meet Xu Huang in Chang'an, and the other soldiers were divided into various counties in Guanzhong. Hua Xiong, order you to lead 10,000 foot soldiers in Nanyang County to garrison Wuguan, closely monitor the movement of the Xiliang army in the Qingni Pass, and there are 5,000 elites stationed in the Qingni Pass to guard against the generals.

Zhao Yun heard it and said: "Lord, there are only 60,000 foot soldiers and 20,000 cavalry in Hanzhong, if you go to 40,000 foot soldiers, I am afraid that the defense of Hanzhong will be empty, and Nanyang only has 20,000 foot soldiers, and the lord will go to save the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that Nanyang County will also be empty by then." ”

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly and said, "There are still 40,000 elites in Hanzhong, plus the Sword Pavilion Heavenly Insurance, I believe that Xu Rong will be able to defend it." After Nanyang County sent troops here, it would only be Yuan Shu and Liu Biao who would attack, and Liu Biao occupied the area of Xinye and Yiyang, and Yuan Shu would have to be the enemy of Liu Biao first, so there was no need to be afraid of him. And Liu Biao didn't dare to come lightly, you must know that now there is one more Sun Jian in Jiangdong, whether it is for him or Yuan Shu, if Liu Biao really comes to attack, just write to Sun Jian for help. I believe that Wentai will also be happy to send troops to help the general. Besides, if you go on an expedition, how can it not be dangerous, and now all the princes are hindered, which is really a difficult opportunity. If you don't strike decisively at this time, if you miss this opportunity, you are afraid that there will be no chance in the future

Zhao Yun heard it and responded: "What the lord said is very much" Only Hua Xiong was present in the strategic deployment in the customs requisition, so he immediately came out and responded loudly: "No." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded and continued to order: "This time to rescue the Son of Heaven, I will bring 20,000 elite horsemen, and then bring Thundercloud Riders and Pangullis, a total of 26,000 people, and falsely claim to be 50,000.

Zilong, Hu Che'er, Zhou Cang, and Zi Huang Xuzi, self-compiled, Zidu, Shen Tan, and Shen Yi accompanied the army. The defense of Nanyang County and Shangyong County was in charge of Wenyuan. With the assistance of the positive side, Yuan Chang prepared the food and grass of my army and handed it over to Zidu to be responsible. In addition, Wen He and Xiaozhi traveled with the army and military divisions, and one of the opponents this time, Cao Cao, had Guo Jia, Xi Zhong, Er Xun and many strategists, as well as Dian Wei, Xiahou brothers and other generals, although it was not a head-to-head confrontation, but it could not be underestimated. ”

When they heard this, they answered, "No,"

Zhang Xiu secretly calculated and said: "Since the Son of Heaven has been on the run for two days, and now his whereabouts cannot be grasped, Zilong, Ru Lingzi, Shen Tan, Shen Yi and Lei Yunqi are out immediately, and the rest of the princes must be rescued by the hands of the rest of the princes, and the Chinese army will arrive later." ”

Zhao Yun, Huang Xu, and the descendants of the Shangyong Shen family who joined Zhang Xiu after coming of age last year, Shen Tan and Bonni! "Noone, one! Later, under the leadership of Zhao Yun, he led Zhang Xiu Gongnian to lead the chamber and went out to prepare.

Zhang Xiu nodded and said to Zhou Cang: "Zhou Cang, Pangulishi has a lot of equipment, and you will order the army to prepare for the expedition." ”

Zhou Cang's urn replied angrily: "Hide"

Zhang Xiu said again: "Zidu, let's go and allocate grain and grass, and let the soldiers prepare for the expedition." Ben will lead his troops into battle early tomorrow morning. ”

Meng Da heard it and said in a loud voice: "No." ”

After that, everything went on in an orderly manner, and Zhao Yun completed the army in less than an hour, and led the Lei Yun cavalry to leave with only five days of dry food. And early in the morning of the second day, Zhang Xiu also led the troops out of the grain and grass and even the things were not ready yet, but Zhang Xiu couldn't take care of it anymore, now time is everything, and Meng Da will be responsible for the weight of the grain and grass.

Zhang Xiu's big move on the expedition made a big cover for Shangyong and Xu Huang and Huang Zhong in Hanzhong, even if Huaxiong led the army to be stationed in Wuguan on the side of Nanyang County, the princes from all over the country just thought that Zhang Xiu was used to prevent changes in the Qingni Pass.

After a few days in a row, according to the information collected by the shadow, as Zhang Xiu knew, it was only Cao Cao's family who was interested in the Son of Heaven, whether it was Yuan Shu, who had already won the prestige of the country, and who might be dreaming of the emperor, or Yuan Shao, who was scheming. There was no situation of sending troops to Luoyang, especially Yuan Shao, who sent a large army to fight with Gongsun Zhan, and the war in Hebei broke out again.

Let's talk about how Yang Feng helped Liu Xie, the son of heaven, escape. Yang Feng was born in the Baibo Yellow Turban, but he has always felt ashamed of the identity of the "thief" of the Baibo Yellow Turban, and later when Li urged to ask for it, he was thrown under Li Xuan. can be regarded as taking off the identity of a "thief" and becoming a Han officer.

I have to say that Yang Feng is quite loyal to the Han Dynasty, if it weren't for this, I am afraid that he would not have been appreciated and served by the loyal and brave Xu Huang in history. At the instigation of Zhang Xiu, Li urged Guo Ji and Wan Hou to turn against each other, and there was a small fight outside Chang'an City for three days and a big fight on the tenth day, but the two of them were very strict with Liu Xie, the son of heaven.

Yang Feng was sympathetic to the Son of Heaven's suffering, but unfortunately there was nothing he could do. happened to be a non-stop war, and the generals under the command of Li Feng and the three of them fought less and less, but Yang Feng, who was originally such an inconspicuous general, was reused, and was arranged by Li Feng to guard the Son of Heaven, which gave Yang Feng a chance.

Yang Feng secretly contacted Tong Cheng, Yang Biao, Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song's son Huangfu Di and other loyal ministers. Let them work together to find a way to help the Son of Heaven get out of danger. It happened that Dong Cheng and others were deeply impressed by Cao Cao, who had a very outstanding performance in the battle against Dong, and when they heard that he had defeated Lu Bu, they decided to help the Son of Heaven escape from Chang'an. defected to Cao Cao and abandoned.

However, although Yang Feng was appointed by Li Xuan as the person who guarded the Son of Heaven, it was the Guards who really guarded the Son of Heaven, and if the Son of Heaven wanted to escape, it was these Guards that he had to deal with. These guards are no longer the army that was loyal to the Han Dynasty back then, they are just the army that Li Xuan, Guo Jiang, and Fan Chou selected some henchmen from their command to guard the Son of Heaven.

Yang Feng can gain Li Xuan's trust, so he naturally knows about it. But Yang Feng also has his own methods. His method was Wu Ban, the son of Wu Kuang, the army under He Jin. At that time, Wu Kuang was bewitched by Li Ru, and led his northern army to vote for Dong Zhuo, and dedicated the Luoyang City Gate, and led the army to kill He Miao. However, Wu Kuang's martial arts were mediocre, and his background in the Northern Army was even more excluded from within the Xiliang Army, but when Dong Zhuo died, he was implicated and killed by Wang Yun. However, Wang Yun felt that although Wu Kuang was at fault, he was not guilty of the Zhulian family, so he only killed Wu Kuang.

Later, Li Qi and others counterattacked Chang'an, and his son Wu Ban originally wanted to take the opportunity to flee back to Yizhou to join his brother Wu Yi. The Wu family is a big family in Yizhou, and in history, after Liu Bei got Yizhou, he was a family in Yizhou, and he also married Wu Yi's younger sister as his wife, which shows the status of the Wu family in Yizhou. However, at this time, the news of Liu Zhangzheng's war with Zhang Xiu came, Wu Ban had been in the Xiliang army for a while, and he had seen the majesty of Zhang Xiu under the Tiger Prison, and out of caution, he decided not to go to Yizhou for the time being, or stay in Chang'an.

But for some reason, Wu Kuang, a small figure, was killed by Wang Yun, and the fact that his son survived was learned by Li Xuan, who felt that Wu Ban's father was killed by Wang Yun, and he must hate the ministers of the court, so he reused him. saw that his martial arts were good, and finally appointed him as one of the generals who commanded the Son of Heaven's guard.

In this way, it gave Yang Feng a chance. Yang Feng and Wu Ban also have some friendship, knowing that Wu Ban did not resent Wang Yun for killing his father, after all, it was Wu Kuang who made a mistake back then, and it was normal to be killed. On the contrary, Wu Ban was also dissatisfied with Li Xuan and others, seeing the Son of Heaven who was younger than himself suffering, although he wanted to save him, he was also powerless.

So after Yang Feng contacted the minister, he contacted Wu Ban, and the two hit it off, and after planning, they decided to rescue Liu Xie, the son of heaven. It is said that the book is full of umbrellas
