The fire in the northwest corner has a tendency to spread to the surrounding area as the wind becomes more and more violent, as the saying goes: the fire takes advantage of the wind, the wind helps the fire, and the smoke and flames block the sky.

And such a fire can be determined to be man-made, not an ordinary drain.

Zhang Miao was ordered by General Liu Bei to be in charge of security in the city, and when the fire broke out in the northwest, he led the troops to inspect it as soon as possible.

Zhang Miao was also a prince of the same party, and he also participated in the alliance against Dong back then, and now he is highly regarded by Liu Bei, otherwise he would not have been ordered to be responsible for the security of the city.

The northwest corner of Puyang City belongs to the gathering place of civilians, and the fire this time is an abandoned courtyard, and judging from the fire that soars to the sky, someone must have put a large number of things in the courtyard to ignite the fire.

At this time, many people were awakened by the fire and ran out of their homes with wooden basins to put out the fire.

Zhang Miao inspected the situation at the scene, keenly felt that things were by no means simple, and immediately made a decision, while sending someone to report to Liu Bei, while leading the soldiers to the emperor's residence.

The fire was man-made, and its purpose was self-evident, it must have been intended to cause chaos in the city, so as to facilitate its actions.

As for the purpose of the arsonist, Zhang Miao couldn't guess for a while, but it was nothing more than robbing the emperor or robbing the city.

The four gates of Puyang City are all guarded by Liu Bei's subordinates, and only the Emperor Xian is in charge of Changshui's lieutenant.

At the beginning, it was Chen Gong who was responsible for the safety of Emperor Xian, and later Dong Cheng wrote several times, and Emperor Xian was annoyed, so he ordered Liu Bei to remove Chen Gong and replace it with a kind of compilation.

Of course, Zhang Miao knew that the series was Dong Cheng's confidant, and the discord between Dong Cheng and Liu Bei was well known in Puyang.

As soon as Liu Bei arrived at the military camp, he quickly ordered the whole army to assemble and stand by, and then sent Jian Yong to lead the troops to inspect the city gates on all sides.

Sure enough, not long after Liu Bei finished arranging, he heard a noisy sound coming from the direction of Emperor Xian's residence in the city.

Liu Bei's eyes froze when he heard this, he held the sword in his hand, and snorted coldly: "Usually I can still tolerate it, but if you want to hurt my foundation, I will never spare it!" ”

Seeing this, Liu Bei turned over, and then led the army through the city, and went straight to the emperor's residence in the city.

Because Liu Bei only occupied part of Yanzhou, he could only place Emperor Xian in Puyang at that time, and the place where he lived was also a large mansion, and because of this, Dong Cheng repeatedly used this as an excuse to impeach Liu Bei.

Chen Gong was the first person to come to Emperor Xian's residence, and as soon as he arrived, he saw Chongji standing in the middle of the road on horseback, with bright armor and a spear in his hand, and behind him were the soldiers and horses of the entire Changshui battalion.

The soldiers of the Changshui Battalion under the account were formed by the Imperial Forest Army of the Emperor at the beginning, so everything was based on the head of the captain in charge.

Seeing that Chen Gong was bringing some soldiers here, he deliberately shouted and asked: "The fire in the city will be a disaster for thieves, and you don't go to fight the fire but bring the troops here, could it be that this fire can't be released by Liu Bei, and you and Liu Bei want to rebel?" ”

Chen Gong saw that the seed series was indiscriminate, and directly placed the charge of rebellion on Liu Bei, and his heart suddenly became clear, and he deliberately said loudly: "Just now the news came back from Beicheng, saying that the people saw with their own eyes that the arson was a soldier in your camp, so I came to arrest him, and your soldiers are here, could it be that this person is under your command?" ”

Chen Gong was stunned by what Chen Gong said, because the north fire in the north of the city was indeed set by his henchmen and soldiers, and when he heard Chen Gong say something serious, he really thought that the soldiers he sent were seen.

Chong Ji pretended to be calm, pointed a gun at Chen Gong and shouted: "A bunch of nonsense, don't blackmail here, retreat quickly, otherwise I will recognize you, but I will not recognize the spear in my hand!" ”

Chen Gong had already received confirmation from the panicked eyes of the seed Ji, and he was anxious, but there were few soldiers behind him, and he couldn't attack strongly, so he was hesitating Zhang Miao to lead the troops to come.

Chen Gong was overjoyed when he saw Zhang Miao, and shouted loudly: "Chongji and others rebelled and intended to kidnap Your Majesty, and the general quickly joined forces with me to quell the rebellion!" As soon as the words fell, he ordered the soldiers behind him to attack.

Chen Gong believed that the seed series chose to act at this time, and there must be something to rely on, and Dong Cheng had never shown up, so he didn't know where to go, so he didn't dare to delay, and decided to strike first, and it was important to defeat the seed series first and protect the emperor.

In today's situation, whoever is in the hands of the emperor will have the opportunity to put himself in an advantageous position.

Although Zhang Miao didn't know what was happening, since Chen Gongyan rebelled, he no longer hesitated and directly waved his troops to attack.

The seed album was already prepared, and with a wave of his hand, the archers behind him shot sharp arrows.

"Buzz......!"

The bowstring sounded, and hundreds of sharp arrows poured out, taking advantage of the cover of night, and flew to the opposite side.

"Ahh

"Ah...... Yes......! ”

As the arrows fell, soldiers fell from the arrows and screamed.

Due to the close proximity of the two sides, Tane only had time to shoot a round of arrows, and then entered the melee.

Although the square in front of the gate was wide enough, thousands of soldiers poured in from both sides at the same time, and the entire square was suddenly filled and crowded.

Taneji did not go into battle to kill the enemy himself, but hid in the rear the moment of the charge.

At this time, Emperor Xian was sitting in the hall, his face full of anger, and Dong Chengzheng was standing with his head bowed not far away.

Emperor Xian listened to the sound of fighting outside, held back his anger, and asked Dong Cheng in a cold voice: "Uncle Huang is bent on supporting the Han family, why are you like this?" ”

Emperor Xian was so angry with Dong Cheng that he didn't even want to call his uncle, and directly complimented him.

Dong Cheng slowly raised his head, his face was calm as usual, and he replied: "Liu Bei is incompetent, although he is the emperor's uncle, it is difficult to achieve great things, and his heart is not right, if he controls the government for a long time, he is afraid of dissent, and he must be guarded against." ”

Emperor Xian was slightly stunned after hearing this, he really didn't think about this.

Liu Bei is the emperor's uncle, and he is also a descendant of the Liu family, if he grows stronger in the future, if he really wants to do something wrong and abolish the establishment, he will indeed have a foreign surname that can be more acceptable.

When Dong Zhuo was in charge of the government, Yuan Shao wanted to ask Liu Yu to inherit the unification in the name of the Han family, but Liu Yu resolutely resigned.

Emperor Xian's heart was a little flustered when he thought of this, and he was not as indifferent to Dong Cheng as he was just now, and said: "How can you know that Cao Mengde has no objection?" ”

Dong Cheng heard Emperor Xian's tone softened, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly replied: "Back then, Dong was a thief, Cao Cao not only stabbed with a knife, but also issued a pretentious edict to call on the princes of the world to send troops, which shows that he is loyal to the Han family and His Majesty!"

And it is a foreign surname, my Han has been established for hundreds of years, the people's will, how dare the foreign surname usurp, you don't see the end of many anti-thieves?

Moreover, Cao Cao's troops are strong and strong, if it weren't for the fear of disturbing Your Majesty, Liu Bei would have been pacified by him, so what is today's matter?

Therefore, Your Majesty can rest assured that if Cao Cao enters the court to assist, the day when the Han family will regain its majesty is very promising! ”

After hearing this, Emperor Xian sighed slightly and said, "I hope so!" ”
