Dong Zhuo was naturally overjoyed to receive Lu Bu, and he immediately named Lu Bu as the captain of the cavalry, although the official position of the lieutenant of the cavalry was not large, but the significance was extraordinary, but it was the official position held by Ding Yuan before he did the assassination of the state, Dong Zhuo came to let Lu Bu know that he was just a small civilian master under Ding Yuan, and after serving Dong Zhuo, he immediately obtained the status that Ding Yuan spent decades to obtain, showing Dong Zhuo's emphasis on Lu Bu.

And Lu Bu was grateful and immediately recognized Dong Zhuo as his father-in-law, neither of them was from a wealthy family, and they both relied on their own ability to climb up from the bottom step by step, the same life experience naturally made the two more in love, Dong Zhuo was naturally happy to receive Lu Bu as his righteous son, and he relied on Lu Bu even more, going in and out of the same car, eating at the same table, and treating him like a parent.

Lu Bu incorporated most of Ding Yuan's soldiers and surrendered to Dong Zhuo, but there were still a small number of soldiers who were unwilling to surrender, but they were deserters and left Luoyang to return to Bingzhou, but Dong Zhuo asked Li Dao, Zhang Xiu, and Xu Rong to lead the army to recover the deserters, and at the same time secretly ordered the three to catch up with these deserters who were loyal to Ding Yuan and then kill them, so as not to give them the opportunity to return to Bingzhou and make a comeback.

Originally, this order was understandable, after all, Zhang Xiu also understood the principle of cutting grass to eradicate the roots, but the problem was the person who carried it out. Since Lu Bu came, because of Lu Bu's unparalleled martial arts and 50,000 wolf riders, he quickly occupied an important position in the faction under Dong Zhuo's command.

made the status of the faction under Dong Zhuo's command greatly reduced, and Zhang Xiu's ministers on their side were better. Although Zhang Xiu and Huaxiong are not as good as Lu Bu in martial arts, Dong Zhuo is still quite dependent, and with Xu Rong, a military training master, and a general in command, the foreign ministers are hugging the three of them, and they are usually very low-key, and they get along well with Lu Bu and his family, so the impact is not too great. But the faction of Li Dao's original henchmen is not very good, first Li Dao's biggest ally Niu Fuyuan is in Chang'an, and Li Ru, who is also a confidant, has never been very involved in the struggle between factions, so Dong Zhuoyuan's henchmen faction with Li Dao is at a disadvantage.

Li Dao felt that the situation was unfavorable to him, so he naturally wanted to fight for success, and it just so happened that Dong Zhuo asked Li Dao to be responsible for chasing and killing the deserters in the state, and the credit was on these deserters.

It is said that Li Dao, Zhang Xiu, and Xu Rong each led an army out of the city to chase and kill the deserters, because the deserters mainly fled to the north and the state, so after the three of them discussed, it was decided that Li Dao and Zhang Xiu led the army to chase the north, and Xu Rong led the army to sweep the east, south, and west.

Zhang Xiu and Li Dao had many conflicts when they were in Hedong, so the two did not act together, and led their troops to the northeast and northwest respectively.

Zhang Xiu led his army to the northwest and chased about 300 people when he arrived at the Yellow River, but Zhang Xiu did not kill them, but said to the deserters: "If you want to live, change into Xiliang clothes and armor, and surrender to me Zhang Xiu, otherwise you will be killed." After saying that, he threw down some of the clothes and armor of the Xiliang soldiers and walked away.

People all wanted to live, and about 300 deserters from Bingzhou changed into Xiliang clothes and armor under the gaze of 5,000 soldiers under Zhang Xiu.

In fact, these escapees are all wolf riders in Bingzhou, and everyone has mounts, Dong Zhuo was a few days late before sending three people out to chase and kill, so most of the deserters fled to the north bank of the Yellow River, and Zhang Xiu was able to chase more than 300 people. As for why Zhang Xiu didn't kill these three hundred people, he felt that the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, as a strong soldier that could be called the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, naturally had its own uniqueness. Zhang Xiu couldn't accept the Bingzhou wolf cavalry under Lu Bu, but he wanted to accept these 300 people, so that they could show the unique tactics of the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, and they could learn it themselves and strengthen the tactics or combat effectiveness of their troops. And to be honest, the credit of 300 people is really not big, and Zhang Xiu also feels that it is useless to kill 300 people for such a dispensable credit.

Chasing to the edge of the Yellow River, Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to camp on the spot and rest for the night, and only rushed back to Luoyang the next morning. On the way back to Luoyang with the troops, Zhang Xiu is now a lot of refugees along the way, which was not seen yesterday, these refugees are mostly women and children, and when they saw Zhang Xiu's army, they showed a frightened look on their faces, and they all hid far away, and only after Zhang Xiu's army did they continue to move forward as if they had been amnestied.

At the beginning, Zhang Xiu didn't notice this, this era of homeless people, refugees are too common, although this is near the imperial capital, but Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan have led troops into Luoyang, and it is common for the people to flee here in fear.

However, after seeing several batches of the same refugees in a row, Zhang Xiu had a little doubt in her heart. After walking for a while, Xu Huang and Hu Zhen, who were leading the troops in front, escorted more than a dozen people wearing Xiliang soldiers' clothes and armor to look for Zhang Xiu at the same time. ”

Xu Huang shook his head, his face was excited, but it was more resentful, Zhang Xiu saw that Xu Huang's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with Gongming?" But even after asking a few times, Xu Huang was silent and did not answer.

At this time, Zhang Xiu set his eyes on Hu Zhen, Hu Zhen was not as excited as Xu Huang, but he also sighed and said: "Li Dao killed the village near Luoyang, and used the heads of the people as the enemy's level to ask for rewards, in order to avoid leaving evidence, he burned down the village by fire." The refugees we saw were the villagers whose homes had been destroyed, and the men were killed except for the children who were too young and the old people with gray heads, and the women were ......."

After Zhang Xiu listened, her face was as gloomy as ink, and she didn't finish listening to Hu Zhen, and said in a deep voice: "What happened to the women?" ”

Hu Zhen sighed and said: "Moreover, Li Wei also asked the soldiers to kill the women of the good family in the village,* and then killed all these women of the good family, and then covered their faces with mud as an enemy-level reward. Fang Cai and Gongming just saw more than a dozen of Li Wei's subordinates doing evil, and Zhen and Gongming didn't dare to be the master, so they only took them down to see the lord, and it was these dozen people. After speaking, he pointed to the dozen or so soldiers wearing Xiliang clothes and armor who were escorted by them.

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shouted violently, and came to the crowd in a few steps with a sassy horse, and the tiger-headed golden gun in his hand shook again and again, showing a gun shadow. The dozen or so soldiers heard Zhang Xiu's violent drinking, and when they saw Zhang Xiu riding a horse, they all shouted: "General Rao ......" Before he finished speaking, these dozen soldiers were directly pierced by Zhang Xiu with a tiger's head golden gun, and the whole skull was pierced by a tiger's head golden gun A big hole was pierced, and red blood and white brains flowed to the ground.

This time, Zhang Xiu shot out angrily, without any reservations at all, and it only took ten breaths for these dozen soldiers to fall from the first one to the last one. After Hu Zhen and the others reacted, more than a dozen soldiers had been killed by Zhang Xiu, but Hu Zhen saw that he said: "Lord, this ......"

Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "The order goes down, the army is dispatched to find Li Dao, if you see Xiliang soldiers along the way to cause trouble to the people, don't worry about killing, all the responsibility will be borne by one force." ”

Xu Huang and Hu Zhen responded excitedly at the same time: "Promise ......"
