Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 17
"Go to court." With a sharp shout from the small yellow gate, all the ministers walked towards the court.

"See Your Majesty!" All the officials saluted Liu Hong together.

"All loves are flat. Today, there are repeated letters of war from the Huns to plunder the border at the border. I don't know what countermeasures you have."

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say." Yuan Kui stood up.

"Your Majesty, I think you should pay tribute to the Xiongnu in exchange for peace."

This is the Taiwei Zhang Wen who came out and said: "I think it is not the case. Yesterday in the Cai Mansion, Cai Langzhong and I have already discussed it. Liu Hou Ye became a blockbuster and thought that we should fight the Xiongnu. We also agree with Wu Yuanhou. statement."

"Although the conquest is possible, it's just, who can take up the post of general!" Yuan Kui asked intentionally.

"Your Majesty, I think that Liu Wei, Marquis of Wuyuan, is brave and resourceful, proficient in everything from literary to martial arts. He can be the chief general." Zhang Wen turned and bowed to Liu Hong.

"Impossible." Cai Yong came to the center and bowed to Liu Hong, "Your Majesty, absolutely no, Liu Wei is still young, how can he take on this important task!"

"Your Majesty, what Cai Langzhong said is inappropriate. Although Marquis Wuyuan is young, he just needs experience. This time is just a good time to sharpen the Marquis." Zhang Rang, who was next to Liu Hong, said.

"Well, Liu Wei is rumored to see you, I want to see what the emperor means." Liu Hong ordered Liu Wei to enter the palace.It turns out that although Liu Wei is a Marquis, that is only a title, but his official position is not up to the standard of the court.

After a while Liu Wei came to the palace, and first knelt down to Liu Hong: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Emperor brother, please get up quickly. I called you here today because I have something to discuss with you."

"I don't know what your majesty has ordered, but I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate to do so." Liu Wei flattered again, which made all civil and military officials in the court ashamed.

"Haha, good. Then tell me if you are willing to conquer that alien race." Liu Hong asked with a big smile.

Liu Wei glanced at Cai Yong who was looking at him nervously, but Liu Wei turned his heart and said to Liu Hong: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go."

"Okay! Then I will make you the general who conquers the North, give you golden helmets and armor, and lead an infantry army of [-] cavalry and [-] cavalry to attack the Huns in the north. I don't ask you how many Huns you can kill, as long as you drive the Huns out of the border. I don't know you What else do you want?" Liu Hong asked again.

"Your Majesty, I hope that I can leave at a later date. Firstly, it's too cold to send troops. Secondly, I need to get acquainted with the generals of this army." Liu Wei requested.

"Okay, you decide the departure date yourself, and you can tell me when the time comes, report if you have something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do." Liu Hong ordered again.

"Retire!" Liu Hong stood up and walked towards the harem, and all the ministers began to gather together to discuss in a low voice, "This Liu Wei's promotion is really fast! He has become a fourth-rank official in just a few days. If only I had such a son!"

"What's the matter! This time the army is not going to suppress the bandits, but to fight the Xiongnu. It is not certain whether they will survive or not."

"Ziyan, didn't my teacher tell you not to go to the north to fight, but why didn't you listen." Cai Yong reprimanded Liu Wei.

"No, teacher, I have to go this time, and I have to fight a big battle and win it. I'm afraid of the Huns!" Liu Wei remembered Cai Yan's experience in history, and the later Wuhu chaos, the Han people were almost extinct .Liu Wei strengthened his confidence.

"Well, well, since you have to go, I can't say anything more, I can only do my best to help you."

In the harem, Liu Hong sneered, and said to himself: "Yuan Kui, Zhang Wen, do you think I can't see your tricks? It's just that the current military power is in the hands of my relative He Jin, and I must take it back." Liu Hong's eyes flashed A trace of violence.

In the camp north of Luoyang City.Liu Wei was dressed in golden armor on the commanding stage, standing there majestic and motionless, and the soldiers below did not dare to move.They all looked at Liu Wei.

Liu Wei also wanted to move, but in order to restrain these soldiers, he had to show enough majesty. Being stared at by 5 people also had to bear a lot of pressure. Liu Wei's back was soaked. If Dian Wei was not behind him, Liu Wei would have fallen long ago.

After another quarter of an hour, Liu Wei shouted: "I am your new general, Liu Wei. We will go north to attack the Huns in a while. I know some of you will be reluctant and emotional, but I, Liu Wei, tell you today that I will move to the barracks in the next few days to eat and live with you. I will definitely ensure that the military discipline is strict and will not favor anyone. I will definitely lead the way when fighting .Will not run away like those young masters.”

"However, I also have requirements for you. First, those who do not obey orders, be executed. Second, those who run away before the battle, be executed. Third, those who are afraid of the enemy, beheaded." The three beheaded words in a row made the soldiers in the audience tremble with fear.

Liu Wei saw that he had achieved the goal of deterrence, and said again: "Of course, this general will be injured for his meritorious deeds, and punished for his demerits. If you can kill ten enemies, I will make you a military marquis. If you can kill a hundred enemies, I will make you a school lieutenant, if you kill a thousand enemies, then you can go home with two taels of silver, I don’t want soldiers who brag.”

"Hahahaha." There was a burst of laughter from below.

"Okay, let's leave today, and tomorrow I will move to the barracks." After Liu Wei gave his orders, he took Dian Wei back to the Hou Mansion.

"Master Hou, I didn't expect you to have such a set. These 5 people made me dizzy, and you made them docile." Li Yong looked at Liu Wei in admiration.

"That's right, don't you look at who I am, Lord Hou? What's the big deal with just 5 people." Liu Wei said without humility.

"Hey, Lord Hou, I'll go and see what you ordered, have they done it well?"

"No, let's go together," Liu Wei stopped Li Yong, and went to the backyard with him.

I saw that the backyard was heavily guarded, and there were ten people guarding the door alone.Seeing that it was Liu Wei, they all stepped forward to salute: "See Lord Hou."

"Free Gift"

When I came to the craftsman's yard in the backyard, I saw more than a dozen horseshoes, two pairs of double-legged stirrups, and two saddles on the ground.

"Hurry up, hurry up, go and get a few rough horses, try to put on the horseshoes, go quickly." Liu Wei said to the guard in a hurry.

"Yes" the guard turned and trotted to lead the horse.

After a while, five horses were brought in, and Liu Wei immediately went up to them and began to install the horseshoes.

Did you nail three horses, and finally successfully nailed the horseshoe on the fourth horse.And the saddle and stirrups are about the same.Just a little modification will do.

Haha, God help me too, with these three cavalry weapons, future cavalry battles will almost be impossible.

"Hurry up, you take two hundred guards to escort these people to Wuyuan, tell Gao Shun to protect these people, and call the craftsmen to increase production, and let him go to the grassland to buy war horses." Liu Wei said to Li. Yong ordered.
