Chapter 430: General Zhengqiang
Outside Liaocheng, aside from the soldiers and horses, Gongsun Zhan, who only had a few people by his side, every step he took was empty.
Although he was completely determined to submit to the imperial court, when he came to this point, he was still nervous and worried.
In the reputation of today's emperors, the most talked about is ruthlessness.
When he led his army south, Gongsun Chan had completely found a reason to convince himself.
But at this moment, his reasons didn't work.
Liu Yu, who was walking beside Gongsun Zhan, looked at it curiously for a long time, and said with a smile: "This is the way the evildoer walks!"
"Liu Yuanjun, don't laugh so happily, the two of us are about the same. I just appointed a few officials myself, and I probably killed some people who shouldn't have been killed, but don't forget, you almost became emperor." Gongsun Chan turned his head and said.
In an instant, there was no smile on Liu Yu's face.
He really forgot about it.
Although he was passively pushed up by Yuan Shao and others.
But this matter is probably different from it in the eyes of the emperor in his eyes, right?
Gongsun Zhan looked at Liu Yu's bitter gourd face, and suddenly relaxed.
also smiled and quipped, "Come, please make Liu Envoy first, let me take a look at the posture of the person who almost became the emperor!"
"You get out of here!" Liu Yu scolded irritably, "I didn't do anything, it's a big deal to dismiss the official and go to work."
"Tsk, this, you have to see what Your Majesty says." Gongsun Chan deliberately frightened.
Liu Yu glared at Gongsun Zhan, "Don't be so happy, I'm just a false name, but you really did something."
Gongsun Chan: ......
"That's it, there's no need for you and me to hurt each other, let's enter the city as soon as possible." Gongsun Chan took the lead in making peace.
Liu Yu waved his hand, "Let's go."
At the city gates.
Qin An saw Gongsun Zhan and Liu Yu coming, and took the initiative to step forward and said, "I've seen Liu Yuanjun, General Gongsun."
"Your Majesty has ordered the officials to wait here, two of you, please!"
The two of them were polite, but they didn't know what Qin An's identity was, and they didn't dare to say more, so they followed Qin An into the city with their heads down.
From the outside of the city, the city is heavily guarded to the extreme.
But when you enter the city, you can see the guards with five steps and one post, three steps and one sentry, and the legs and stomachs of the two people who have seen the world are a little weak.
"This is supposed to be the Praetorian Guard." Gongsun Chan whispered to Liu Yu.
Liu Yu was nervous at the moment, and was startled by Gongsun Zhan's quiet words.
His elbow hit Gongsun Chan and scolded in a low voice, "Why are you talking so much all of a sudden?"
Gongsun Zhan moved his arm and said to Liu Yu, "Move, talk, don't be nervous."
Liu Yu thought about it, and it seemed to make some sense, so he took the initiative to say: "I heard that His Majesty took the guards into Yuan Shao's camp and captured Yuan Shao alive, the imperial court's guards seem to be indeed a little strong, and there seem to be tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yuan Shao's camp at that time."
"Han Sui was also folded in the hands of the guards." Gongsun Chan said, "Your Majesty's Praetorian Guards should be the most powerful soldiers and horses of the Great Han, and there is no one."
The two chatted quietly with the guards, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the government office.
"Envoy Liu, General Gongsun, here." Qin An turned around, nodded politely and said.
Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan hurriedly tidied up their clothes, and then slowly entered the hall.
"The criminal ministers Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan pay a visit to His Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty for ten thousand years!"
"Excuse me, give me a seat!" Liu Wei was discussing with Zhu Jun and others who had arrived from Baima how to settle Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu's soldiers and horses.
After Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan sat down a little uneasily, Liu Wei said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that everyone in Youzhou has great talents, and they have political disagreements, and they are in a uproar. I look at it now, you seem to be quite harmonious."
Liu Yu remembered what Gongsun Chan had told him before, and took the initiative to get up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is too conservative."
Gongsun Chan followed up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is also lacking Huairou."
Liu Wei laughed, "Look at how harmonious this is."
Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan: ......
Liu Bianzheng said, "I am ready to reverse the general trend of the world, and now it seems that it has been quite effective. At this most critical moment, I am very relieved that you can lead your troops south in time to help us get rid of the national thieves."
"I don't dare to praise Your Majesty like this, the minister is guilty. The subordinates supporting the army are not in line with the national system and violate the imperial system." Liu Yu once again took the lead and said, "At this time, leading the army south, the minister feels a little ...... It's late."
After speaking, he turned his gaze slightly to Gongsun Zhan.
Gongsun Chan immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is indeed ...... It's a little late, minister...... Guilty!"
Liu Wei laughed, "The two of you have more than 200,000 troops, if it was last year, I really wouldn't dare to talk to you like that."
Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan's hearts burst together.
Although the imperial court soldiers and horses are strong, it seems that the number does not seem to be 200,000.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses recruited by the minister are your majesty's soldiers and horses, and the ministers voluntarily hand over the soldiers and horses and return to their hometowns to feed the fields." Gongsun Chan even said, when the topic went straight to the theme of soldiers and horses, although Gongsun Chan was a little distressed, he had already taken this step and had to make some trade-offs.
Liu Wei laughed and said, "If I let you go back to your hometown to feed the fields, wouldn't it make the world laugh? You are a meritorious minister of Sheji, and you have made great contributions to the imperial court's northern expulsion of Kou. When the imperial court captured Jizhou, he used all his troops and horses to personally lead the army to help, which is a great achievement."
"Although I am young, I can still distinguish between right and wrong. However, you have more soldiers and horses in your hands than I do, which is indeed a bit unreasonable, isn't it?"
Gongsun Zhan was quite moved when he heard it, but as soon as the emperor's last sentence came out, his heart was fierce again.
Doesn't this still want him to dismiss himself?
"Your Majesty......" Gongsun Chan shouted again.
He felt that the emperor might want to play the resignation game, and if he insisted on it a little longer, it should be almost the same.
Liu Wei raised his hand and interrupted Gongsun Zhan, "Do you have any people in the army who recommend you?"
"There is a general under the command of the minister, whose name is Yan Gang. This person grew up in the bitter cold land of Saibei, and he is brave and good at fighting, and he is good at the Qiang people's tactics." Gongsun Chan guessed that the emperor might want him to recommend a person to lead the troops, so he pushed his first confidant, Yan Gang, out.
Liu Wei was not familiar with Yan Gang before, that is, after the radiation range of the Zhenfu Division gradually expanded, he had some understanding. Indeed, as Gongsun Chan said, this is also a fierce general.
Zhao Yun, who Liu Wei has always been thinking about, has a lot of respect for Yan Gang.
"Tighten the outline to recruit the Qiang Zhonglang general, and give the lord the merchant capital waiting." Liu Wei said.
Gongsun Zhan was stunned for a moment, it was the first time he had seen someone else's land bestowed.
The Shang capital is outside Youzhou, and it is a piece of land that the Xianbei and Qiang people are fighting for.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to be knighted like this." Zhu Jun stepped forward and said, "It is reasonable to recruit the Qiang Zhonglang general, but it is just that the land of the Xianbei people will be sealed with the Zhengqiang Zhonglang general, which may cause the dissatisfaction of the Xianbei people."
Liu Wei's eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "I just want to make them dissatisfied, the Central Plains is weak, and the Han Dynasty is not as strong as before, so they began to bully the weak, wisps of Koubian, and plundered the people of our Han Dynasty. I really gave them face, in the past, the imperial court's martial arts were not good, I could endure it for a while, but now I don't plan to endure it."
"From today on, the Koubian is regarded as the initiator of the national war, and I have taken his ancestral grave!"
Gongsun Chan: !!
His pupils almost widened in shock.
The emperor's attitude towards foreign races was several times tougher than he thought.
This is what the Emperor of the Han Dynasty should look like!
How can you be bullied, and still swallow your anger and give gifts to others to say peace? It doesn't make sense at all.
Liu Yu's face was slightly red, and what the emperor said seemed to be directly scolding him.
Although he had different opinions, he was standing in this place just now, and he couldn't say anything.
Liu
Yu counted on the other ministers above the court to say two fair words, especially Situ Zhujun, whom he had always respected.
He shouldn't have been so reckless in his direct enmity with Xianbei people.
Unexpectedly, after Zhu Jun finished speaking, after the emperor finished speaking, Youyou said, "Your Majesty, since then, Youzhou must be guarded without a strong army!"
Liu Yu: !!
Is the fist of the imperial court really so hard now?
The south is still standing side by side, how can the emperor already look at the Xianbei people unpleasantly?
He really couldn't understand that.
