Chapter 477 Serious
Xu Chen was not surprised that Liu Bei and Sun Quan guessed that the Yellow Turbans would march south. In fact, it would be strange if they could not guess this. So it was also within Xu Chen's expectations that they were now beginning to deploy their troops.

One of the functions of the Xuanxia Guard is intelligence. Judging from the specific intelligence on the front line, the current intelligence system can be considered professional. Even some things in the Wu and Han armies can be known to Xu Chen, because Tian Shitou had already infiltrated various princes at the beginning of his intelligence business.

By now, Xuanxia Intelligence has formed a system and organization.

Xu Chen could even occasionally find out what enemy commanders like Guan Yu and Zhou Yu had done on a certain day through intelligence organizations.

This also means that if Xu Chen is willing, at certain moments, he can even announce to Tian Shitou some assassination plans against Zhou Yu, Guan Yu, or even Liu Bei and Sun Quan. Of course, the possibility of this happening is extremely low, and he is too disdainful to do it as it would be too embarrassing.

Why are you still trying to carry out a decapitation operation after traveling through time? It is simply embarrassing for the time traveler. Just crush the past with dignity.

"Send this military intelligence to the generals of each military department, and continue to collect information. When the situation becomes clearer, let the military organize a meeting to analyze and judge, and then submit a report to me." Xu Chen handed the letter back to Tian Shitou and gave the instructions.

Tian Shitou quickly accepted the order, but did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he talked about another matter: "Huainan Lu Meng has been summoned by the Prime Minister. He is almost here now. He will arrive in Peking tomorrow. When do you think it would be best for the Prime Minister to meet him?"

After hearing this, Xu Chen immediately remembered this matter.

After conquering Wei, Yanzhou and Xuzhou were all incorporated into Xuanxia. Although there were some remnant soldiers of Wei in Yuzhou, after the cooperation with Lu Meng in the past six months, it is now almost conquered. The Huainan Army, which had been behind enemy lines since then, has finally returned to the embrace of the organization.

As a wild force, Lu Meng was formally incorporated into Xuan Xia. Lu Meng himself was also appointed as the governor of Yuzhou by Xu Chen, and was also summoned to Beijing by Xu Chen for a job.

After all, Lu Meng's Huainan Army was not a force that was properly trained by an organization. This army had a strong personal color. It was necessary for Lu Meng, the leader, to come to the center to accept the advice of Xu Chen, the prime minister, and even to conduct a formal inauguration ceremony. This process was necessary and serious.

Even when Lu Meng returned to Huainan, Xu Chen would ask him to bring back some genuine Yellow Turban officers, thus turning this army with a strong Lu Meng color into a regular army of Xuanxia.

This is not about being petty or suspicious. It's just that this is a political matter and must be serious. It's not good to mix emotions into it.

If we don't take care of it now, it will be difficult to control it in the future. When the Huainan Army only listens to Lu Meng and not the organization, it will be really embarrassing and awkward for both sides.

As for whether Lu Meng could understand it now, Xu Chen was not too worried. It was nothing more than doing ideological work.

After thinking for a while, Xu Chen replied: "Don't worry, when Lu Meng arrives in Beiping, let Ma Yan entertain him first, and then let him go to the military headquarters to have a look. We can meet him in a few days."

After that, he looked at Tian Shitou again: "If I remember correctly, the special envoy beside him is your man."

Tian Shitou nodded and said, "Prime Minister, this person is the intelligence source of my subordinates. His name is Li Zheng. When our army attacked Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, he made great contributions. I saw his outstanding ability, so I appointed him to Huainan."

Xu Chen nodded and said: "The Huainan Army will have to be reorganized in the future. Lu Meng may have to think about this matter. You can let Li Zheng do more guidance."

"I understand!" Tian Shitou agreed and turned to leave.

After Tian Shitou left, the courtyard fell into peace again. However, Xu Chen no longer had interest in reading. After putting the book down, he stood up and looked up at the sky in the distance.

The autumn wind blew by, and Xu Chen felt a slight chill. Now that he thought about it, he had actually reached such a high level, and every thought and action of his would affect the fate of countless people.

Whether it is an unknown person who came to prominence due to the influence of himself as a time traveler, or a famous guy in history like Lu Meng, they are all under the control of his will.

At this moment, what Xu Chen felt was not the pleasure brought by power, but the heavy responsibility.

This is true for specific individuals like Lu Meng, and for the future of this civilization and the countless people in this world. Everything is now under his control. Carrying this terrifyingly huge cause and effect on his shoulders makes Xu Chen feel a little unreal.

My small body can actually bear it
For some reason, he also wanted to say something.

Counting famous people, let’s look at the present!

The time estimated by Tian Shitou was very accurate. Sure enough, on the morning of the next day, Lu Meng and Li Zheng arrived in Beiping City with a team of Huainan Army soldiers.

For Lu Meng, Beiping was undoubtedly a holy place in his heart. It was no exaggeration to say that he came to Beiping with a pilgrimage mentality.

After all, after being enlightened by the Heavenly Book and comprehending the truth of this world, he has been on this path and will never return. Fortunately, he does not need to explore and try hard on this path, as Xuan Xia in the north has already pointed out the direction for him.

When he led his soldiers to the outskirts of Peking, Li Zheng turned around and saw that Lu Meng's face was visibly red, which was obviously a sign of being overly excited.

Thinking about last night when the organization suddenly contacted him and assigned him a task, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

In his eyes, it was actually unnecessary to do ideological work on Lu Meng, because this young man was truly sincere. Without this sincerity, how could he have resolutely embarked on this life-threatening road?

Of course, Li Zheng also understands the organization's mission very well. Whether it is necessary or not is one thing, and whether it needs to be done is another.

Li Zheng also understood that political affairs required seriousness.

"stop!"

Before Lü Meng led his troops to the city, they saw a knight rushing out of the busy city gate. He stopped them first, then clasped his fists and asked, "I am the guard of the city gate. Brothers, please report your affiliation!"

As soon as Lu Meng raised his hand, the team behind him stopped immediately. Then he also clasped his fists towards the guards and said, "I am Lu Meng, the governor of Yuzhou. I have been ordered by the prime minister to come to the capital to take up my post. Please let me pass."

The guard was not surprised to hear this, as it was obvious that it had been reported in advance and was just going through the procedure to confirm it.

After confirming his identity, the guard dismounted and saluted towards Lu Meng: "I am honored to meet the governor of Yuzhou. Please follow me into the city. However, according to the city defense regulations, in non-wartime, all troops except those belonging to the city defense must temporarily store their weapons and armor at the city gates. I hope the governor of Yuzhou will cooperate!"

Lu Meng was a little surprised when he heard this, but he just smiled and said: "Since there is such a rule, just follow it."
