Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 204

In the middle of March, there is a sense of spring.

Chen Cangcheng.

After the war, there was a mess and depression everywhere. Although the Xiliang rebels had been defeated, the traces they left on the city walls were particularly clear, and the houses in the city that were affected by the war were also in ruins.

East of the city, Guanzhong Barracks.

The left general Huangfusong sat cross-legged on a high position, and on his left and right sides, the generals of the Guanzhong Army sat down, but their expressions were somewhat gloomy.

"Father, this Dong Zhongying is still unwilling to hand over military power before the holy will. It seems that he doesn't care about the imperial court!"

Huangfu Li stood up, cupped his hands and said, "It's better to take this opportunity to get rid of him!"

"absurd!"

Huangfu Song squinted at his son, and said indifferently: "Dong Zhuo and I are both courtiers, and we led the troops to repel the Xiliang rebels. He is the general of the imperial court. How can I not ask the reason and just send troops to destroy him? How decent!"

"General, but now Dong Zhongying doesn't respect the emperor's edict. The emperor named him Bingzhou shepherd and asked him to hand over his military power, but Bingzhou took office, but he has been lingering all the time. The Huangzhong righteousness in his hand, the Xiliang iron cavalry is not willing to hand over after all! "

A general said: "It is obvious that there is a heart of disobedience to the holy will, so there is no guarantee that you will not join the rebels and fight back against the court!"

"indeed!"

"This man is ambitious!"

"In the past, when we chased down the rebels, we were supposed to wipe them all out, but because of the gap left, we turned back to the rebels and returned to Xiliang. But we failed to complete the battle. I'm afraid he has already connected with the rebels!"

"..."

All the generals spoke one after another.

These generals are all sons and daughters of the Guanzhong family, and the Guanzhong army has tens of thousands. They were recruited by Huangfusong using the influence of the Guanzhong family, so they were naturally influenced by the Guanzhong family.

"You don't need to say much!"

Huangfusong shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to use swords. In the battle of Chen Cang, my soldiers in Guanzhong already suffered a lot of casualties. The current combat strength is less than [-]% to [-]%. The Liangzhou army, not to mention Dong Zhuo's most elite flying bear cavalry, The Huangzhong Yicong formed by those Qiang people alone is already standing strong, if there is a war, both sides will suffer!"

It's not that he doesn't want to fight.

But Dong Zhuo's strength is not inferior to him.

Moreover, in the Battle of Chencang, he contributed more and had more casualties under his command. On the contrary, Dong Zhuo, although he only assisted in the battle, took a large number of prisoners by virtue of his background in Xiliang, and expanded his strength a lot. .

Even if he had the confidence to deal with the fight, it would only be a lose-lose situation.

The most important thing is that others don't know what the court is doing now, but he knows it.

General He Jin sent troops to remonstrate with Beigong.

The Son of Heaven was trapped in the North Palace, and the government had already fallen into the hands of the Great General He Jin. Dong Zhuo was also a general of the Great General He Jin, and he was under the sect of the Great General He Jin. A criminal went to jail.

What troubled him the most was this decree.

This imperial decree was issued by the emperor when he was in power, but now the crown prince and the general are in power, and the imperial edict has become an embarrassing existence instead.

"Dong Zhuo violated the decree. I will play the imperial court and let the imperial court comment. I am the left general of the court. Marching is only the imperial court's order. Without the imperial court's imperial order, you must not send troops to hurt your colleagues. If there is an imperial court's order, it will be a sea of ​​swords , don't be timid!"

Huangfu Song said: "Pass down my order, all battalions in Guanzhong are not allowed to go out to provoke!"

"promise!"

The generals were helpless and took orders.

……

West of Chencang City, Liangzhou Military Camp.

In the camp.

At this moment, Xiliang generals also gathered together, and their complexions were also not very good, one by one peeped at each other, sometimes looking at the expression of the chief general Dong Zhuo, sometimes looking at each other.

Dong Zhuo, whose name is Zhongying, spread his wings high from the barren land of Xiliang, and flew up an eagle. He had a beard all over his face, and his eyes were like copper bells. The ferocious beast of man makes people feel shuddering.

"Wen You, it's been a few days since the court's decree was promulgated. I'm still reluctant to hand over the military power. I'm afraid Huangfu Song won't be able to sit still. If he sends troops to deal with us, how will he deal with it!" After the sound, Dong Zhuo's thunderous voice broke the silence.

After winning this battle, the strength of his subordinates has expanded a lot, and his influence in Xiliang has also increased a lot, which is a good thing in the first place.

But an imperial decree made his good mood go down the drain.

"My lord, don't worry!"

Sitting next to Dong Zhuo was a civilian scribe.

This scribe looks inconspicuous at all, dressed in the most common clothes, like a very ordinary scholar, but anyone who knows him well knows that this is a poisonous snake, a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, who does not know when it will come out Take a bite out of them.

Even these lawless generals from Xiliang felt a little respectful when they saw this person.

This person is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and one of his most trusted advisors, Li Ru and Li Wenyou.

Li Ru bowed his hands and saluted, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, although the holy will is down, but the lord has a heavy army in his hand, Huangfu Song does not dare to move. Holy will, otherwise he wouldn't have waged war against the lord!"

"Then what will he do?" General Li Que asked.

"He will play to the court and sue the lord!"

Li Ru said.

"Sue the lord?"

The generals looked at each other.

General Guo Si frowned, and said: "But in this way, doesn't the emperor think that the lord has the intention of rebelling against the court, and if the imperial edict is issued, we will be rebels?"

The rebellion of officers and soldiers is nothing more than the emperor's thought.

"How could it be so simple!"

Li Ru smiled coldly and said: "My lord is a servant of the great general. We have followed the path of being a great general. If the lord becomes a rebel, wouldn't it mean that the general is also a rebel? The general is above the court, so he won't Let the lord become a rebel!"

"But if this continues, I will be very passive!"

Dong Zhuo's other son-in-law Niu Fu said.

"So we have to move, completely get out of Huangfusong's sight, and make him helpless!"

Li Ru turned around, turned to Dong Zhuo, and said, "Master, since the imperial court has granted you the post of Bingzhou shepherd, you have to go north to serve successively. You can lead the army to go north and get out of Huangfusong's sight!"

"Will Huangfusong let me lead the army away?"

Dong Zhuo has not yet tasted the power in his hands in the future. He is not an arrogant official. Now he is just a cautious general who came out of Xiliang. He is calm and deep: "What if I lead my troops to the north , but he chased after us and hit us in the back, didn't we suffer heavy casualties!"

The most dreadful thing in the march is to show your back.

"First, Huangfusong probably wouldn't do that!"

Li Ru calmly analyzed: "Second, even if he does this, we can still deal with it!"

He came out and faced the map, and said: "My lord, you can lead the Feixiong camp to the north first. After I finish it, my lord will go to the east of the river. Now there is a Yellow Turban rebellion in the east of the river, and there is also oppression by the Huns. My lord can find a reason to call for troops." Going north, when the time comes, we will lead Huang Zhongyi from the third camp of Xiliang to the north, justifiably, and join the Lord!"

"So good!"

Dong Zhuo's eyes were sharp and bright when he heard this.
