The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 89 I'm a peacemaker

The envoys of Li Jue and Guo Si came to the opera city at the same time, and they all brought rich gifts. Everyone knew what the purpose of coming was.It was a little awkward for the messenger to meet.Long Fei held a banquet in hospitality, and no one mentioned the matter of borrowing soldiers during the banquet.Just arguing about who is right and who is wrong.Long Fei, Jia Xu and the others seemed to be watching a play.After the banquet was over, neither of the two envoys was willing to leave, as if Long Fei would immediately fall to the other side as soon as he left.That being the case, Long Fei thought of a way.

In a small tent next to the big tent, Long Fei met with the envoys of Li Jue and Guo Si respectively.The attitudes are the same, I will definitely stand up to uphold justice, and I will never let those who rob me.The two messengers left happily.

"My lord, will they believe it?" Zhang Liao asked, "We have two heads, don't we..."

"Hey!" Long Fei chuckled, "Wen Yuan is surprised by this statement. This is not called the two ends of the first mouse, but the fight between the snipe and the clam for the fisherman's gain. Have you never heard of this allusion! Let me tell you about it!"

Just when Long Fei felt that everything was in order and was about to lead his troops to leave the opera city to mediate, something happened in Tongguan to the east.Fan Chou, the general guard of Tongguan, learned of the civil strife in Chang'an, and felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he invited Zhang Ji to lead his troops together.Naturally, it was under the banner of mediation, and in fact he had the same thoughts as Long Fei.The two joined forces, the silk banners were flying, and the soldiers and horses were long, galloping from Tongguan.

Long Fei was also surprised when he received the news: "These two people really know how to find the time, and they came really fast!"

Guo Jiadao: "Zhang Ji and Fan Chou can also be regarded as princes of one party. They all have their own advantages when they can be princes. Seizing the timing is the most basic thing. This is not surprising!"

"This time, they don't want to leave again!" Long Fei's eyes widened, revealing a murderous look.

Guo Si was at the east gate of Chang'an, and he set up a huge formation to welcome Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.Fan Chou and himself are from the same hometown, and with this friendship, he has a lot of ways to tie Fan Chou to his side.With Fan Cong's help, Li Jue was doomed this time.

The banquet was as lively as ever.Speaking of the internal strife between Li Jue and Guo Si, Guo Si put all the responsibility on Li Jue, calling himself the biggest victim in the world.Li Jue's hijacking of the emperor is treason, and it must be eliminated quickly.Fan Chou and Zhang Ji looked at each other and said to Guo Si: "General, you, me, and Li Jue are all subordinates of King Yong. Because of some trivial matters, I am so heartbroken that I come here with General Zhang to have a look. How about I take a step back each sentence?"

In the middle of the banquet, someone suddenly shouted outside: "The imperial decree has arrived..."

Everyone in the room was shocked, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou got up quickly, but Guo Si sat still.It was a young eunuch who delivered the decree. He looked around with his small eyes and saw that Guo Bang’s eyes were wrong, so he hurriedly opened the imperial decree and read: "By God, the emperor ordered... Zhang Ji was made General Hussars, and Fan Chou was made General of Hussars." Chariot General!"

Obviously Li Jue took advantage of the convenience of the emperor and wanted to use high-ranking officials to win over Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.Guo Si was furious, grabbed the imperial decree, tore it to pieces in three or two strokes, and kicked the little eunuch viciously: "Go back and tell Li Jue that generals Zhang and Fan will not understand such pretentious edicts." Accept it!"

Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were a little disappointed that the high official who had just been acquired was ruined by Guo Bang, but they couldn't say anything.As soon as the little eunuch left, Fan Chou proposed to go to Meiwu to have a talk with Li Jue, hoping that the two families would stop fighting to make peace, put the overall situation first, and stop arguing again.Guo Si didn't agree at all, but he didn't want to offend these two "immortals", so he reluctantly agreed.However, he has one condition, that is, only Fan Chou can go there.Guo Si believed that if Zhang Ji and Li Jue went in, they would only help the emperor to do evil, and Fan Chou was his fellow countryman, so it would not be bad for him.

That afternoon, Fan Chou led his troops to Meiwu.After sending Fan Chou away, Guo Si suddenly had a bold idea. He glanced at Zhang Ji, turned his head silently, and invited Zhang Ji to go back to drink with a smile.

After Fan Chou arrived at Meiwu, he unexpectedly saw Li Jue welcoming him.Dong Zhuo's castle is now Li Jue's base camp, and a few sparse soldiers are walking around at the gate.Fan Chou explained his intention, and someone informed him inside, Li Jue ran out with a big smile on his face.After exchanging pleasantries, the two entered Meiwu.Fan Chou has never been here.Although it was ransacked by Jiang Qin, it was still so magnificent.

The food and drink were quickly served, and Li Jue praised Fan Chou and Zhang Ji for mediating this time. When he learned that Guo Si had torn up the imperial decree, he immediately asked someone to draw up a new copy and hand it to Fan Chou.The two drank one cup after another, both a little drunk.Li Jue turned his head and winked at Wang Fang who was drinking with him.Wang Fang picked up the jug and poured a cup for Fan Chou himself: "General Fan has come thousands of miles for my general's affairs. It's really hard work. This time I have to rely on the general a lot. Come and respect the general!"

Fan Chou was overjoyed, raised his neck and drank all the wine in the glass.After a while, I felt unbearable pain in my abdomen, and wanted to get up to go to the toilet, but just as I stood up, I felt my world spinning, my legs gave way and I fell down again.Li Jue looked at Fan Chou with a smile, and there was something sinister in that smile.Only then did Fan Chou realize something was wrong, and heard the sound of shouting and killing outside the door.

Fan Chou wanted to speak, but couldn't.Covering his stomach with one hand, pointing at Li Jue with the other.Wang Fang stepped forward with his sword in hand, looked at Fan Chou and said with a sneer, "You still want to become big in front of my general, what do you think you are?" Grasping Fan Chou's hair with one hand, the sword lightly stroked Fan Chou's neck, Blood spurted out.

Zhang Ji from Chang'an suddenly woke up.I don't know why, but I was terrified tonight, and I seemed to feel that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it out.He was supposed to go back to the camp, but unexpectedly agreed to Guo Si to stay.Since he couldn't sleep, he got up slowly and asked someone to pour him a cup of tea.Before taking a sip, I heard movement outside the door.

Zhang Xiu was covered in blood, and with a spear in one hand, he broke into Zhang Ji's bedroom: "Uncle, it's too bad, Guo Si is going to kill us!"

"Dang!" The tea bowl in Zhang Ji's hand fell to the ground.As soon as Zhang Xiu grabbed Zhang Ji, he dragged him out of the door: "Uncle, come with me, my nephew will definitely save my uncle and go out of the city!"

Chang'an City has been tightly sealed, and Zhang Ji's army outside the city has long been bought by Guo Bang's money and high-ranking officials. Seeing the changes in the city, no one came to rescue.Zhang Xiu led Zhang Ji to rush left and right, facing the endless soldiers, it was difficult to break through.Hu Che'er yelled, and swung his axe to strike Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu hurriedly greeted him with a gun: "You are crazy! It's me!"

"It's you who will kill! General Guo has already promised that as long as you take the heads of your uncles and nephews, he will make me a general of Zhonglang! Take my life!" Another strike with an axe.

Zhang Ji's personal guards are getting fewer and fewer, and some have surrendered for their lives.Zhang Xiu was furious, shouted and stabbed straight with his gun.Zhang Xiu's marksmanship was as fast as lightning, before Hu Che'er's big ax could block it, it pierced through Hu Che'er's chest.The ungrateful man met with death.Zhang Ji saw that his situation was over, he grabbed Zhang Xiu and said, "Hurry up, take me, our uncles and nephews and no one can escape!"

Zhang Xiu still didn't leave.Zhang Ji flipped his sword and put it on his neck: "Go! Go find Long Fei and avenge me!"

Zhang Xiu had no choice but to rush out single-handedly.When he turned around to look, Zhang Ji was already surrounded by soldiers. Zhang Xiu wiped away the tears on his face, unleashed his divine power to break through the encirclement, and got into the darkness.

After all, this night was not peaceful.Li Jue tried his best to poison Fan Chou to death, and drew Fan Chou's soldiers closer to his team under coercion and lure.Guo Bang also used the same method to take Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses for his own use.They all felt that the other party was not as smart as themselves, so tomorrow they would take the soldiers and horses they snatched and completely wiped out the other party.Only Long Fei, the bystander of the whole thing, could see clearly.

"Very good! Fan Chou was killed by Li Jue, Zhang Ji was killed by Guo Si, and the two of them attacked each other again! When they have a battle, it won't be too late for us to come forward!" Long Fei glanced at Jia Xu: " Wen He, can you tell me now, how did you make these two people have the idea of ​​killing and seizing soldiers?"

Jia Xu smiled: "It's not difficult to say, these two people are very ambitious, just send someone to remind them a little bit, I have been in the Xiliang army for many years, and I still have some old friends!"

"Report...! My lord, Zhang Xiu asks to see you!"

Zhang Xiu was dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, his hair was disheveled, and his weapons and horses were nowhere to be found.After breaking out of the siege last night, Zhang Xiu was not allowed to go out of the city, so Zhang Xiu hid in a haystack, found some clothes of the common people this morning, and mixed out with the common people who left the city.Speaking of his uncle being killed by Guo Bang, the anger in Zhang Xiu's eyes could not be suppressed.

"General! Please, general, avenge my uncle. I, Zhang Xiu, would like to repay the general like a cow and a horse!" Zhang Xiu said sincerely: "Our uncle and nephew offended the general a lot back then. I hope the general will see us together in Hulaoguan to defend against the enemy. Come on, avenge my uncle!"

Long Fei helped Zhang Xiu up and took off the grass clippings on his clothes: "General Zhang and I fought against the enemy together in Hulaoguan. We are like brothers. General Zhang took good care of me. Now that I have died tragically, I am heartbroken. I will take revenge for the general! But the major general can wait, when the time is right, I will definitely put Guo Si in front of the major general!"

Zhang Xiu couldn't understand Long Fei's glib tongue before, and was very annoyed by him and himself.Now that Long Fei agreed without hesitation, Zhang Xiu didn't know what to say, so he nodded hastily: "I will obey the general, and I, Zhang Xiu, will repay the general to the death!"

Just as Long Fei expected, Li Jue and Guo Si got the man and couldn't wait to compete.The two sides set up a battle in the outskirts of Xianyang.It was only after seeing each other that they realized that both of them wanted to go together.Things can only be fought now, and now in this posture, only you can live or die.Although the two of them thought very well, but none of the soldiers were their own, and they showed fatigue from the beginning of the battle.The stalemate fighting was fought on and off, with casualties on both sides.These are trivial matters, but the headache is that the food and grass cannot keep up.

Li Jue sent people to plunder nearby counties, and Guo Si hurriedly followed suit.The nearby people suffered, and these soldiers quickly evolved from robbing food to killing good people and taking meritorious service.The common people had no choice but to flee here with their families. A large number of common people were displaced, and their destination was the opera city.Long Fei suddenly felt the pressure increase, and felt that it was time for him to act.
