"Brother, I heard that the old emperor gave you a promotion again." The person arrived before the sound came, and there was really no other person besides Zhang Fei who was so careless.

"Brother (Master." Zhang Liao and the others came to Chen Chu together.

"Brother, what kind of official did the emperor promote you?" Zhang Fei asked impatiently, looking very excited, as if he picked up 100 taels of gold while walking.

Chen Chu patted the imperial decree on the table and smiled and said, "The emperor promoted me to be General Zhengbei."

The four of them all showed sincere joy when they heard the words. "Congratulations to the lord (big brother) for his promotion!", the four of them bowed together.

However, Chen Chu waved his hands with a wry smile and said, "Do you think this is a good thing? This is Dong Zhuo's trick." Then Chen Chu picked up a few other imperial edicts, shook them and said, "The imperial envoy also brought this An imperial edict is ordered. I want my cavalry to go north to quell the Karasuma Rebellion. Gongtai, please tell everyone." The last sentence, Chen Chu said to a fair-faced young scholar beside him.This young scholar is Chen Gong.A few days ago, when Chen Chu went to Zhongmou, he had a hard time abducting him back.Now, Chen Gong is Chen Chu's military adviser.

At this time, Chen Gong was just a minor official with a real name, but Chen Chu treated him with courtesy and entrusted him with important responsibilities.For this, Chen Gong was very grateful, so he vowed in his heart to serve Chen Chu for the rest of his life.

Chen Gong respectfully bowed his hands to Chen Chu, and then said: "Luoyang is now under Dong Zhuo's control, and these so-called imperial edicts are actually Dong Zhuo's intentions."

The four generals are good at fighting on the battlefield, but they don't understand these twists and turns.Hearing Chen Gong's words, the four generals all showed puzzled expressions.

"Military Master, since this decree is Dong Zhuo's intention, why did he promote elder brother?" Zhang Liao was the one who asked.

Chen Gong smiled slightly, "It's very simple, there is only one reason, Dong Zhuo wants to make a gesture to the people of the world. This imperial edict is just a smoke, it doesn't matter if you ignore it. Dong Zhuo's real intention is actually this edict."

After a pause, Chen Gong continued: "The Karasuma rebellion this time is different from the past. There are nearly 20 rebels from various tribes. These nomadic peoples grew up on horseback since they were young, and they are extremely skilled in bowing and horses. The above is powerful. If our army fights against it, the outcome is hard to predict. Dong Zhuo's purpose is obvious, that is to use Karasuma's hands to destroy us. Even if we win in the end, our army will suffer heavy losses. Dong Zhuo The goal has also been achieved, and it will be much easier for him to do it again."

When the four of them heard this, their complexions changed slightly, and Zhang Fei said angrily, "It's nothing more than this Dong Zhuo's false preaching of the imperial decree! He even changed his place to harm us! Brother, let's ignore him and see if he can do it." what to do!"

"No!" Chen Chu and Chen Gong said together.

The two couldn't help being taken aback, then looked at each other and smiled. "Gongtai, it's up to you to speak."

"Yes, my lord." Chen Gong bowed his hands to Chen Chu, and then said to the crowd: "Although Dong Zhuo wants to do Wang Mang's affairs, he is hiding it very well, and all the officials and the people are deceived by him. That is to say, this imperial edict From the eyes of others, orders are the meaning of the emperor. If we don’t follow them, we will be openly disobeying orders. At that time, Dong Zhuo will have a good reason to attack us. Other princes will not dare to move if they have scruples. Our army will be in a very dangerous situation So, even though we know this edict is a trap, we have no choice but to jump into it."

The four of them were very depressed. It was really uncomfortable to know that it was a trap but couldn't resist.

Chen Chu glanced at the expressions of the four people, and suddenly laughed and said, "Karasuma are just a bunch of barbarians! I will definitely break them!", his tone full of boldness and confidence.

The four of them were immediately shocked when they heard the words, and they all thought in their hearts: The lord (big brother) is really admirable for being so heroic!Whether he is a trap or not, I just follow the lord (big brother) to a fight!

Seeing the raging fighting intent in the eyes of the four of them, Chen Chu nodded in satisfaction.Then Chen Chu said again: "Although the conquest of Karasuma this time is Dong Zhuo's trap, can't we turn this into a way to increase our power! Hmph, if Dong Zhuo wants to play a trick to drive away tigers and wolfs, then he has to do it now." My tiger can only be fed to its full! Gongtai, don’t you think so?”

Chen Gong's eyes lit up, showing admiration.He bowed his hands to Chen Chu and said, "My lord is wise!"

Ten days later, Luoyang City.

Dong Zhuo looked at the letter in front of him, feeling very distressed and angry.Today, Chen Chu, the general who conquered the north, sent someone to send a letter, asking him for armaments and supplies for one hundred thousand troops.From Dong Zhuo's point of view, this is simply a lion's mouth! [

"Mr. Wenhe, this Chen Chu is so polite! I must give him a wink!" Dong Zhuo was holding Chen Chu's letter in his hand, his face full of anger.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "It's only natural for a large army to go to the court to ask for supplies. If you use this as an excuse to raise troops, you will give others a handle. I think the Grand Master should agree to his request."

Dong Zhuo puffed his cheeks and glared at Jia Xu, "What do you mean? Could it be that you want to help him grow stronger!"

Jia Xu frowned, and looked back fearfully: "Why did the grand master say this! Has he ever claimed to be a lie since he followed the grand master?"

Dong Zhuo realized that what he said just now was serious, and his expression suddenly softened. He cupped his hands at Jia Xu and said, "Mr. Wen He, don't blame me! I made a slip of the tongue just now!"

Jia Xu shook his head, and then explained: "If Chen Chu's request is not agreed to, he will definitely stand still on the pretext of lack of food and grass. Now we will agree to his request and use the hands of Karasuma people to get rid of it at the cost of a batch of supplies. Or weakening this formidable enemy is very worthwhile! Please think again, Grand Master!"

Dong Zhuo is arrogant and greedy, it is really difficult to get him to take out supplies.However, Dong Zhuo had always admired Jia Xu's resourcefulness, and he believed that Jia Xu's suggestion was beneficial to him.

After hesitating for a long time, Dong Zhuo finally nodded in agreement. ! ~!
