The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 12
Li Yuan walked into the hall, knelt on the ground and saluted Emperor Ling: "Li Yuan sees Your Majesty!"

"You don't need to be too polite, let's be flat." Emperor Ling nodded, seeing Li Yuan with sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, white clothes Kaikai, handsome appearance, extraordinary heroism, he liked it very much in his heart. A good appearance is indeed easy to get a good impression.

"Li Yuan, how old are you this year? Have you ever worked before?" Lingdi asked.

"Your Majesty, this villain is twenty-eight years old (that is, 16 years old), and I haven't held a job yet. I have been practicing literature and martial arts with my master Tong Yuan since I was a child. I have learned seventy to eighty percent of his martial arts under the guidance of my mentor. Luoyang worshiped Cai Zhonglang as his teacher and studied calligraphy and the Book of Songs. Although he learned some skills, he did not have the opportunity to display them. I heard that this time I will go to Xingyang to suppress the rebels. "

Li Yuan finished speaking in one breath, and he spoke neatly. Now in the eyes of others, he seems to be a genius capable of literature and martial arts. Since he is Tong Yuan's apprentice, can he not be good at martial arts, and Cai Yong appreciates him as a student? Then the talent and learning will definitely not be bad. The most rare thing is that he wants to be loyal to the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Ling was very satisfied with Li Yuan, but he still turned around and asked Zhang Rang for his opinion.Zhang Rang replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I think Li Yuan is a talented person. He is not only a disciple of Penglai gun prodigy Tong Yuan, but also a student of Cai Zhonglang. It shows that he must have some skills. I think it is feasible to send him to assist He Miao to suppress the rebellion."

Hearing this speech, everyone couldn't help being stunned. Everyone knows that Cai Yong and other virtuous ministers are at odds with Zhang Rang. Although this Li Yuan may have some skills, he is obviously Cai Yong's man. Why didn't Zhang Rang Oppose, but still support Li Yuan, is there some unknown reason?

Not to mention other people, even Cai Yong and Wang Yun didn't know why Zhang Rang didn't sing against them this time, but also helped them deal with General He Jin, Cai Yong couldn't help looking at Li Yuan a little more Doubtful, with a tinge of fear in the doubtful, even his teacher couldn't see through this newly recruited disciple.

In fact, Cai Yong didn't know that Li Yuan started to approach Zhang Rang a few months ago, and used money to buy people around Zhang Rang, and finally gave Wang Wu's Ye Mingzhu to Zhang Rang. Zhang Rang is a greedy person. Very good, very happy, although I am a little concerned that Li Yuan is Cai Yong's disciple, but seeing that he is very good at life, I am willing to help him today.

"Wait, this matter is extremely important, I can't just send someone there, I want to see if he is really capable!" He Jin didn't know what happened to Zhang Rang today, and he actually helped Cai Yong and the others, but he couldn't help it. It is not so easy to divide half of the military power that is easy to earn for one's own brothers.

"General, please come up with a question." Li Yuan is not afraid at all. He is calm and composed in front of the ministers. This demeanor is enough to convince people. You must know that he is only 16 years old this year. Promising peers.

"Don't say I'm making things difficult for you, I'll just ask you how many soldiers and horses you need to fight the rebellion this time, and what do you need to do to break the city?" He Jin made a question according to the actual situation.

Li Yuan didn't rush to answer, but instead asked: "Dare to ask the general, do you know the approximate number of bandits?"

"About [-] people. Xingyang has been occupied. The situation is very urgent. There are not too many or too few thieves, but if there is a slight mistake, the entire army may be wiped out. Therefore, you have to think carefully before making a decision." There was a bit of threat in He Jin's words.

"It's not difficult to suppress the rebellion this time. Give me 5000 troops and I can break through Xingyang." Li Yuan said confidently.

When He Jin heard this, he sarcastically said: "Hmph, I really don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth. The enemy has already occupied the city. It would take at least several times the enemy's strength to break through the gate. It is ridiculous that you want to break the city with only [-] troops. I don't know the art of war at all."

Li Yuan was also amused, you, He Jin, are just a butcher, if it weren't for your sister's relationship, how could you be a general, and you are only slightly better than a layman when it comes to marching and fighting.

"The general's words are wrong. If the normal siege of the city is of course several times the force, but I think these rebels are just formed by the people. If they are not driven by someone, they may not dare to rebel. This proves that their military spirit is not good. Stability, this is the first, second, these poor people may not even have enough to eat, and they have no experience in training, so it is difficult to form combat effectiveness. It is likely that they will not be able to react in time, which will greatly increase the chance of breaking the enemy."

Li Yuan spoke clearly and logically, making it impossible to refute. Although He Jin wanted to refute, he couldn't find any flaws, so he could only stand aside and sulk in the end.

Emperor Ling couldn't help laughing: "Li Yuan, you really have the ability to command the army. I named you Captain Fenwei and led seven thousand troops to Xingyang to assist He Miao in suppressing the rebels. I wish you all the best of luck!”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will live up to my high expectations!" Li Yuan immediately knelt down and thanked him.

After the dynasty was over, Li Yuan, Cai Yong, Wang Yun and other ministers thanked each other. Cai Yong smiled and nodded, "We have worked so hard to earn the official position for you. I hope you will live up to the entrustment and come back victorious as soon as possible. , don't lose face to me."

"Master Cai will definitely not be disappointed." After bidding farewell to Cai Yong and others, Li Yuan took Xu Zhu and Wang Wu to the barracks.

Along the way, Xu Zhu was pulled away by Li Yuan inexplicably, and couldn't help asking, "Wen Zhong, where are we going?"

"Haha, Zhongkang, it's time for you to show your skills. Now we are going to lead our troops to Xingyang to suppress the rebels." Li Yuan told what happened in court this morning, and Xu Zhu and Wang Wu couldn't help but beam with joy after hearing it. , They waited for many days, and finally they had the opportunity to go to the battlefield, especially Xu Zhu, it was a waste of all his skills not to fight.

A few days later, Li Yuan took [-] soldiers and horses to the outside of Xingyang City. At this time, he had handed over the military power to He Miao.

In the city of Xingyang, Li Mu is now enjoying the spring breeze. He was originally a murderer who ran for his life to avoid the government's pursuit, but because of the chaos in the world caused by the Yellow Turban Uprising not long ago, he was able to escape. He is a mediocre person, and he turns a blind eye to a murderous person like him.

Although the Yellow Turban Uprising has passed for several years, the lives of the people have not improved, but have become worse and worse. Seeing such a plan, Li Mu wants to emulate Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Uprising and rebel, so that he can become a local emperor himself.

So they raised the banner of the uprising in Xingyang, colluded with a group of bandits nearby, and there were more than 400 people. They broke through the defenseless Xingyang at once, and beheaded Pan Ye, the master of Zhongmu, and took control of the city. He also knows how to buy people's hearts. He opened the granary and distributed it to the people. Many people joined his forces to thank him. In a short period of time, he set up an army of more than 5000 people. .

Li Mu occupied the mansion of a wealthy businessman in the city. At this time, he was throwing a banquet to celebrate the success of the uprising. Dozens of bosses in the hall were eating vigorously. Suddenly, one of his subordinates hurried in and accidentally bumped into a The table, knocked over all the dishes on the table.

"Fuck you bastard, don't you have eyes, don't you know that we are celebrating with General Li?" Zhao Li slapped him when he stood up. For General Lee.

The subordinates covered their cheeks in pain and said: "Boss, General Li, something is wrong."

"What's wrong, our rebel army has just won a big victory, everything is fine, can you talk, kid!" Zhao Li kicked that short-sighted subordinate again.

"Forget about Chief Zhao, let's listen to what he has to say first." Li Mu waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to continue.

That subordinate stood up from the ground with great difficulty, saluted Li Mu, and said in a panic: "The imperial army has come, at least six or seven thousand people, and they have already set up camp outside the city gate. The city is under siege!"
