In the Imperial Garden, in the big tent of the Xuanjia Army, Xiao Yi was lying on his back, his eyes were closed, and a silk handkerchief soaked in cold water was placed on his forehead, reflecting on everything that happened today.

"The edge is too exposed, the edge is too exposed!" Yang Tian let out a long sigh, Xiao Yi patted his forehead with his hand, at the banquet in Wen Mingyuan today, it seemed that he was in the limelight, but in fact, he was a fool and a gunman for nothing!

The situation at that time Dong Zhuo was in a dilemma, for those civil and military officials, it was impossible to kill, and it was impossible to let go, Xiao Yi took advantage of the sword dance to restrain Dong Zhuo, of course, he protected those officials, but he also gave Dong Zhuo a step down, alleviating the contradiction between the two, and everyone still had a decent ending, otherwise with Xiao Yi single-handedly, how could he control Dong Zhuo so easily, don't forget, Dong Zhuo is a battle-hardened battlefield general, and his vigilance is very high.

And Dong Zhuo has also calculated, at this time, Xiao Yi didn't dare to really kill him, throwing a mouse bogey, those civil and military officials are his hostages, unless he really kills a river of blood, everyone dies together, otherwise he is absolutely safe, and in doing so, he also gave Xiao Yi a favor, which is a disguised means of wooing, 'Do you think!' Brother dares to put his life in your hands, what a lot of trust this is, why don't you hurry up and come to ......'."

has a good heart, so Xiao Yi finally punished himself with three glasses of wine, and then strode out alone, one is to thank Dong Zhuo for the importance he attaches to himself and return his favor, and the other is to tell him, although I can't kill you at this time, I am not afraid of you at all!

To put it bluntly, although Dong Zhuo is brutal, his purpose is not to destroy the imperial court, but to control the imperial court, whether it is to entertain hundreds of officials, or to propose the deposition of the emperor, it is just a means for Dong Zhuo to establish prestige and coerce hundreds of officials to cooperate with him, his real purpose is to obtain power, supreme rights.

"What's next?" Xiao Yi clearly knew that Dong Zhuo would never give up easily, and there would definitely be a plan for the next step, so he used the method of empathy and began to think about how to solve the current situation from Dong Zhuo's standpoint, "If I meet a group of people who are unwilling to cooperate with me, and I can't kill all of them, then ......, the best way to leave ...... is to find a representative figure from this group of people and kill him, and make an example of him, and the rest of the people will naturally be obedient; But who will be the 'chicken'? ”

"Hiss! ......" Xiao Yat suddenly felt that his neck was cold, as if there was a blade on it; If you want to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, the unlucky ghost who is picked out must be like a chicken, a person who likes to be in the limelight for nothing, but has little involvement, and has no name but no substance; After killing, it won't affect the people who have much impact, and unfortunately, Xiao Yi seems to have all of them.

When it comes to being in the limelight, who else can compare to Xiao Yat recently? 'Fighting the sword to go to the palace, supporting the new monarch, saving the driver in the north, shooting down the handsome flag, plus holding Dong Zhuo hostage with a sword at today's banquet', any of these things are in the limelight, and unfortunately, these things are all done by Xiao Yi alone,

In terms of influence, Xiao Yi came alone, in this world he has no clan, no relatives and no party, if he is really killed, it is estimated that there will be many people who sigh for him, but there are probably very few people who can really stand up for him to avenge Dong Zhuo, and there are probably very few ...... who can stand up for him.

So Xiao Yat does have the qualifications to be that 'chicken'!

"Keeping a low profile is king! can live a long time, but I've been too popular lately! It shouldn't be! Shouldn't! Patting his cheeks, Xiao Yat began a deep self-reflection and self-criticism; In fact, this can't be all blamed on him, there is a kind of person in this world, even if he acts in a low-key manner, covering his head in the quilt every day, but things will always find him, because they are born to stand in the center of the world, enjoying the light, this is the destiny of heaven!

The difference is that there are good and bad destiny!

Good things come to the door, that is called: "I have no intention of being rich, but wealth is forcing people to come!" ”

If something bad comes to the door, it is called: "Sit at home behind closed doors, and woe will come from heaven!" ”

Unfortunately, Yat Siu falls into the latter category!

Since he can't dodge, he can only fight back, although the probability of Dong Zhuo targeting himself is less than fifty percent, but even if there is only one point of danger, Xiao Yi must try his best to eliminate it in advance, otherwise it will be too late when the white blade is approaching.

Jumping up, Xiao Yi held the sword in his hand, and strode towards the big tent of the Chinese army that guarded Zhang Yang, if it was not bad, there would be a messenger here tonight, and it was not one, it should be a whole two.

As for the people who sent the messenger, one is Ding Yuan, and the other must be Dong Zhuo!

These two are already incompatible!

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yi entered the big tent of the Chinese army, the envoys of Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo came one after another, and they all held the letters written by their lords.

The difference is that Dong Zhuo's letter promised a high-ranking official Houlu, bluntly saying that as long as Zhang Yang sent troops to help him deal with Ding Yuan, then after the matter was completed, he would ask the imperial court to take over the position of the assassin of Bingzhou by Zhang Yang, and there were also a number of other rewards, which were very heavy.

In addition, Dong Zhuo also said at the end of the letter that if Lord Taishou really can't bear to do something to his colleagues, then he can close the camp door and choose not to help each other, and when he is done, the reward will still be awarded.

And Ding Yuan's letter is much more direct: "Please send troops to help me and kill thieves for the country!" The righteousness of this courtier! ”

Inviting the two messengers to rest in other tents, and with two letters in hand, Zhang Yang began to have difficulties.

Promise Ding Yuan, for fear of offending Dong Zhuo, after all, the seven thousand Xiliang soldiers are not easy to provoke, how will it end if they are defeated? Besides, the position of the assassin of the state is indeed very attractive!

can promise Dong Zhuo, but he is afraid of attracting infamy from the court; Besides, after all, he and Ding Yuan belong to the same Bingzhou Group, and Ding Yuan is his boss again, and he has a love for incense!

Difficult! It's hard! After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yang still couldn't make up his mind, and he was indecisive, which was the biggest shortcoming of this Taishou Lord.

"What does Xiao Lang think? Do we help or don't we help? Who to help? In desperation, Zhang Yang had no choice but to set his sights on Xiao Yi's body again, although this unruly subordinate is difficult to control, but Zhang Yang has to admit that Xiao Yi does have a first-class vision in the control of the overall situation.

"Help!" Xiao Yat's answer was very simple.

"Oh? Help whom? How can I help? ”

"Naturally, it is to help Ding Tingshi, directly send troops, and work together to defeat Dong Zhuo!" Looking at Zhang Yang, who was still a little puzzled, Xiao Yi began to analyze the situation in front of him.

"Now the three forces around Luoyang, Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan, we; Among them, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers are the strongest, Ding Yuan's Bingzhou soldiers and horses are second, and we are the weakest, if the adults help Dong Zhuo, then after Ding Yuan's demise, with Dong Zhuo's jackal character, he will inevitably turn his face ruthlessly and turn around to attack us, please think about it, with our strength, can we block the wolf-like Xiliang soldiers? ”

"This, it must not be stopped!" Although his decisiveness is slightly weak, Zhang Yang's comparison of strength is still very clear, his three thousand Xuanjia army is definitely not the opponent of the seven thousand Xiliang elite soldiers, not to mention that Dong Zhuo still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on the way to Beijing, and the difference in strength is too great.

"Then please think about it again, if we help Ding Yuan deal with Dong Zhuo, will Ding Yuan make a move against us after the matter is completed?"

"Huh! Although Ding Jianyang is strong, he is loyal to the court and will never attack people for no reason! Zhang Yang touched the long hair on his chest, and was very sure in his heart, he knew too much about the character of this boss, "Just take a step back and say, that Ding Yuan has a bad heart, and the old man is confident that he can also deal with him!" ”

To deal with the cunning and brutal Dong Zhuo, Zhang Yang is not sure in his heart, but if he wants to deal with Ding Yuan, who is not deep in the city, he has a way, when it comes to IQ and means, Zhang Yang is confident that he can fall out of Ding Yuan several streets, and his absolute IQ is crushed!

"It is difficult for the strong to coexist, and it is easy for the weak to coexist, and the ancients did not deceive me!" After figuring out the joints, Zhang Yang let out a sigh of relief, and finally made a decision, "Come on, invite the messenger of Ding Thorn Shi in,...... As for Dong Zhuo's messenger,...... Send out the camp! "Although it was decided to 'Lian Ding to ask Dong', Zhang Yang still didn't dare to do things too desperately, and just sent Dong Zhuo's messenger away, without killing him, leaving himself a way out!

This is also one of the life-saving means that he has been standing in the officialdom all the year round and not falling!

"Good, my lord is wise!" Touching the blood wave slashing sword on his waist, a bloodthirsty feeling passed from the sword body to Xiao Yi's heart, it was the desire of the sword, but it was not the desire of Xiao Yi's heart, he was finally going to see blood, "The last general will order troops to prepare for battle, attack tomorrow, and wipe out Dong Zhuo!" ”

The big war is finally about to begin!
