The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 72 Please talk
"Martial arts before the emperor? Isn't that just martial arts in the school field? It was on the school field that I met Wen Yuan at the beginning. After a few years, it is very different now."

Wei Tao just smiled slightly after getting this will.

A year ago, Wei Tao might still worry about recruiting soldiers, but after this year, Wei Tao no longer has to worry about not being reused by the court.

In the past year, Wei Tao hasn't changed much, but his old father-in-law, Cai Yong, has been appointed by the court again as a servant.

However, although Cai Yong was able to return to the court, his real power was not great, but Cai Yong himself was not a person who loved the official position, and after some twists and turns, Cai Yong's mind also changed.

Today's Cai Yong is more focused on learning than fighting with others in the court.

Speaking of which, the reason why Cai Yong was demoted back then was precisely because he offended the Ten Attendants.

But the reason why it can be used now is because Wei Tao is now in a good position, with a great future, and he has made great achievements in beheading Zhang Liang, so the ten permanent attendants are not willing to pursue the responsibility too much.

If Wei Tao was determined to fight the eunuch to the end, then Zhang Rang and others would naturally not be lenient. Even if Wei Tao was valued by the Han Lingdi again, it would be rare to be able to match Zhang Rang who was called "Father" by the Han Lingdi Pay more attention to?

But Wei Tao didn't want to fight the eunuch with all his heart.

Although Wei Tao had never said a word of kindness to the eunuch because of his acquaintance with important officials of the imperial court, in fact Wei Tao had a good relationship with Cui Ying, the little yellow family in the palace.

In this way, Zhang Rang waited for the ten permanent servants to test a few times, and after confirming that Wei Tao did not have much hostility, he let out the wind and asked Cai Yong to return to court.

Cai Yong also had to spend a lot of money for this.

Cai Yong couldn't get those silver coins, but Wei Tao conquered the Yellow Turbans and captured a lot, and now he is in charge of an army, he still has a lot of silver coins in his hand, just to help Cai Yong deliver them, this is what makes Cai Yong Yong returned to court again.

However, what Cai Yong did after returning to court was to reassure Zhang Rang and others, so they stopped paying attention to Cai Yong.

With Cai Yong in the court, the relationship between Wei Tao and Wang Yun and other important court officials is much closer, and as long as Zhang Rang and other eunuchs don't take the initiative to make trouble, Wei Tao will not lose his position easily.

Although Zhang Liao didn't know this, but this year, Zhang Liao had been training elite soldiers with Wei Tao, so he naturally had confidence in his soldiers. Hearing Wei Tao's words, he smiled and nodded.

"What the general said is that if the two armies are really facing each other, I am afraid that our soldiers will still be useless, but this time the imperial martial arts show is fighting generals, fighting soldiers, and fighting formations. Even if it is us, it will be a battle."

Although it is a martial arts performance in front of the imperial court, it is impossible for all the soldiers to play, not to mention other things. At that time, the entire court officials will be there, and the eight school lieutenants will lead more than ten thousand soldiers and horses. What if they plot to rebel?
It's not that the emperor doesn't trust Wei Tao and others, but it's impossible to do so.

Therefore, it is natural for the generals to show their abilities. Thirty soldiers of the fighting soldiers will fight on the field.

Anyway, Wei Tao is also the captain of Xiyuan, so he can naturally recruit some strong men, within [-] soldiers, their strength will not be inferior to Yuan Shao and others.

"That's right, performing martial arts in front of the imperial court is a major event and cannot be failed. Moreover, the Yellow Turban is getting worse and worse. I am afraid that this time His Majesty intends to let Captain Xiyuan attack to capture Zhang Jiao. If Zhang Jiao is not eliminated, it will always be a serious concern for His Majesty."

Zhang Liao is confident, and Wei Tao is equally confident. In the past year, Wei Tao has practiced martial arts every day without stopping, and his martial arts skills have improved even more.

Moreover, with Zhang Liao and Dian Wei as subordinates, although there are no famous teachers to guide them, there are two brave generals to accompany them. In addition to the overlord's legacy he got from Wang Yue, Wei Tao changed to use a halberd to extract the essence from it, even if Dian Wei tried his best It takes fifty moves to take down Wei Tao.

This is also because although Wei Tao himself is born with supernatural power, he is not as good as Dian Wei after all. He is in his prime, and after fifty strokes, his strength is already exhausted.

What's more, Dian Wei himself is also born with courage, even more than Wei Tao.

"The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength. In any case, Wen Yuan has to pay more attention in the past few days, especially the changes in the formation, and he needs to practice more."

After all, neither Wei Tao nor Zhang Liao had experienced many battles, and they were probably a little inferior in comparison, so Wei Tao couldn't help but give a few more warnings.

While Wei Tao and Zhang Liao were talking, a servant came in to report.

"Report to the general, Cai Shilang sent someone to the mansion for a banquet, and said that the elders will be here, and please go there quickly."

Hearing these reports, Wei Tao was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled wryly.

"It should be a matter of performing martial arts for the imperial court. It seems that the princes of the imperial court are also paying attention to such matters."

As long as Wei Tao thinks about it for a while, he can understand, not to mention that there is actually a competition among the princes in the court, such as Wang Yun and others, naturally hope that Wei Tao can win, this is the way to invite Wei Tao through Cai Yong.

"Wen Yuan, this is the case, remember to be moderate, don't make a joke that hastily drilled, and the result is hurting the soldiers."

"promise!"

Zhang Liao was a calm man, Wei Tao explained again, so he was relieved, and immediately drove to Cai Yong's mansion.

Although they are not yet married, Wei Tao and Cai Yan's marriage contract has been fixed, so they are not hindered from entering and leaving Cai Yong's mansion. He went straight to the inside and saw Cai Yong talking with Wang Yun and others.

Originally Cai Yan was sitting next to Cai Yong, quietly listening to the conversation of Cai Yong and others, when Wei Tao came in, a pair of wonderful eyes had already fixed on Wei Tao.

But when Wei Tao glanced over, Cai Yan immediately buried his head,
"I met my father-in-law, I met Wang Shishu, and I met several adults."

After saluting one by one, Wei Tao sat down by himself, and then said with a slight smile.

"I don't know how many adults called Tao to come, but for the imperial martial arts performance in a few days' time?"

"That's right, but Ziyu is sure?"

Now that Cai Yong is obsessed with learning, he naturally wouldn't ask Wei Tao about it. In desperation, Wang Yun could only ask in person.

"There are rumors in Luoyang that your army, Ziyu, is the weakest. I don't know if that's the case? If you lose successively in front of His Majesty, that's not good."

According to rumors, Wei Tao also heard about it.

However, what he said was somewhat true, and Wei Tao knew that it was impossible to refute such a thing, so he naturally ignored it.

Of course, it is impossible for Wei Tao to admit this at this time.

"Uncle Shi, please be relieved. Although my soldiers and horses are all selected from among the common people, there are also capable and brave men among them. The strength of the selected army is definitely not weak. Now, it is time to correct the rumors."

Hearing Wei Tao's confident words, Wang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and after looking at the others, he asked again.

"Since this is the case, is it against the army led by Jian Shuo?"

Hearing this, Wei Tao frowned slightly.

Although Jian Shuo was just a eunuch from the Huang family, he did have some real skills, and Jian Shuo's soldiers were not even private soldiers of the noble family, but were directly drawn from the original army.

In fact, I am afraid that Jian Shuo's army can be called the number one.

"Zi Yu!"

Seeing that Wei Tao didn't say a word, Wang Yun had a faint look of embarrassment, so Wang Yun naturally understood a little bit.

But Wang Yun was stubborn, not the kind of person who would give up easily, so he said with a long sigh.

"You also know that the eunuch is now in power and has gained His Majesty's trust. Now that he has such power in the court, if he is allowed to gain the power of soldiers and horses, it will become more and more uncontrollable. So this time, the eunuch must not be allowed to perform martial arts before the imperial court." Winning power means nothing else, victory or defeat has nothing to do with it, only those who are in danger must win."

Wei Tao was silent all of a sudden, but after a while, he spoke slowly.

"My nephew will try his best, but I think that once General Benchu, General Mengde and others are here, it will definitely not be for the eunuch to succeed."

Hearing this, Wang Yun and others smiled lightly and remained silent.

Obviously, in the eyes of Wang Yun and others, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others were naturally able to do this, and now Wei Tao was only asked to come here as a precaution.

What's more, if even Wei Tao can win, doesn't it just mean that eunuchs are useless in commanding soldiers.

"Okay, everyone. I invite you to come here today to talk about knowledge, not state affairs."

Although Cai Yong was no longer willing to participate in political affairs, he still knew what everyone meant, but he didn't want to embarrass Wei Tao too much, so he just spoke.

Cai Yong is the master, even if Wang Yun and others are interested, they can't be too forceful.

It wasn't until after everyone left that Cai Yong invited Wei Tao into the study.

"Ziyu, I'm afraid it's not that simple to perform martial arts in front of the imperial court this time, you still have to be careful."

Cai Yong is still very satisfied with Wei Tao, so he specially left it as a reminder.

"Although I have not been in the court for a long time, but I have known Zishi for a long time, but I understand his temperament. If it is not related to the court, he will not come to see you specially, and he will tell you these things."

"What my father-in-law said is very true, but this matter is what His Majesty has said. What else can I do besides sending the Xiyuan school captain to attack and kill the Yellow Turban?"

Hearing Cai Yong's advice, Wei Tao was also somewhat puzzled.

"Otherwise, although the position of Lieutenant of Xiyuan is quite high, it was done by His Majesty to prevent the Yellow Turbans at that time, so there are not many people, and it is difficult to eliminate the Yellow Turbans."

After all, Cai Yong has been a subject for a long time, but he sees some things more thoroughly than Wei Tao.

"I'm afraid that His Majesty has a feeling that he wants to seize power. I have heard rumors in the imperial court that His Majesty is now in a state of serious illness, and I don't know when Long Yu will return to heaven. Therefore, someone asked His Majesty to establish a crown prince as soon as possible."

Wei Tao was startled immediately. Before he knew the news, Wei Tao still didn't understand. After hearing Cai Yong's reminder, Wei Tao still didn't understand.

Unexpectedly, there will be another disturbance in Luoyang.
