"Two adults, let's go back to the city and talk. It's windy outside the city, and the weather is cold......" Xian Yufu greeted enthusiastically.

"Nope." Fu Xie waved his hand and said solemnly, "We won't enter the city, let's leave immediately." ”

Li Hong and Xian Yufu were stunned.

"Your Majesty urges again and again, we can't delay any longer, we will go back to Luoyang immediately." Fu Xie said anxiously.

"Master Fu, what's so anxious, it's even more anxious than exterminating the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou." Xian Yufu asked suspiciously.

"There has been another accident on the Xiliang battlefield. His Majesty issued an order to ask Master Fu to immediately go to Hanyang County in Liangzhou to serve as the Taishou, so Lord Fu's heart is now on fire, and he can't wait to rush to the Xiliang battlefield in one day. Liu Yu said with a gloomy expression: "The situation in Xiliang is becoming more and more tense. ”

"A few days ago, we got news from the two adults, didn't it mean that the situation on the Xiliang battlefield has been stabilized temporarily? What's wrong? Li Hong asked.

"The two places are thousands of miles apart, and the transmission of messages is too slow." Fu Xie explained, "In December last year, with the help of the Qianghu cavalry, the rebels of Bian Zhang Han Sui broke through the defense line of the chariot cavalry general Zhang Daren, and quickly invaded Fufeng County, and now they are now directly threatening Chang'an. ”

Li Hong and Xian Yufu glanced at each other, secretly shocked in their hearts. There were 100,000 horses and horses in the official army on the Xiliang battlefield, and they couldn't stop the attack of the Xiliang rebels, which shows the strength of the Xiliang rebels.

"What do you need us to do for your majesty?" Liu Yu asked.

Li Hong shook his head.

"If Lord Li can completely solve the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army before April, it will definitely be of great help to the Xiliang battlefield." Fu Xie said, "When Jizhou is stable, the imperial court can pay attention to the Xiliang battlefield wholeheartedly, and invest all its troops and financial resources in Xiliang, without having to concentrate on two purposes." ”

"Don't worry, two adults, I will immediately start to solve the Changshan Yellow Turban Army." Li Hong said loudly.

Liu Yu and Fu Xie didn't say anything more. Fu Xie read out the holy decree, handed over the official seal ribbon (the ancient official seal was worn on his body, and the ribbon was tied to the seal button) and the talisman to Li Hong, and then hurriedly left.

When Li Hong returned to Handan City, he immediately found Zheng Xin and asked him to find an officer of the former Yellow Turban Army from the Yan Zhao tribe, who was shrewd and clever and had a strong ability to do things. He had something to arrange.

It didn't take long for Zheng Xin to walk in with a sweaty officer. This man is young, with a mustache on his lips, bright eyes, and a smile on his face, which makes it impossible to see the depths.

"The villain Chen Ming knocks to see the adult." As he spoke, he lay on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, making a clanging sound.

Li Hong was startled, hurriedly ran over to help him up, patted his already reddened forehead with his hand, and said with a smile: "If you knock down like this, your head will break." I won't kill you, what are you afraid of? ”

Chen Ming's heart was relieved, and he replied with a smile: "I don't know what the adults have to tell the little ones to come?" ”

"What is your current position in the army?" Li Hong helped him to do it, sat next to him and asked.

Chen Ming was moved by Li Hong's intimate behavior, and the fear in his heart calmed down a little, and he replied with sincere fear: "The villain is the tun chief, and now he is following behind Lord Zheng with a tun of people." ”

"They turned out to be scouts of the Yellow Turban Army, about 300 people, I pulled them out alone and trained them myself." Zheng Xin hurriedly explained.

"So you've been working hard lately?" Li Hong smiled, "There is something I want you to do in person, how about working harder?" ”

Zheng Xin smiled: "Yes." If it's done, you have to give a reward. ”

Li Hong smiled and nodded, "Okay, good." Why, when you saw the tiger head marrying a daughter-in-law, you were also red-eyed and wanted to save money? ”

Zheng Xin smiled and patted him lightly, and said, "Say, what's the matter." ”

"Ask Chen Tunchang to lead the way, the two of you immediately go to Montenegro, find Yang Feng, and say that I want to see Zhang Yan, so that he must find a way to make an appointment with a time and place." Li Hong whispered.

The smile on Zheng Xin's face suddenly froze. Chen Ming's expression also changed greatly, and he looked at Li Hong in disbelief. This person has just defeated the Yellow Turban Army, killed hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, and has a deep blood feud with the Yellow Turban Army.

Zheng Xin knew that Li Hong and Yang Feng had an agreement in private, so Zhao Guo's matter was quickly resolved. But in his view, the matter can never be repeated. Zhang Niujiao died on the battlefield of the Great Battle of Gall anyway, and his death was directly related to the Fengyun Iron Cavalry. Talking to Zhang Yan is not too wishful thinking.

"My lord......" Zheng Xin hesitated for a moment, and opened his mouth to persuade him, but was immediately interrupted by Li Hong.

"Leave now. Tell Yang Feng that I will immediately lead my troops to Changshan. If Zhang Yan is willing to meet, choose a place near Changshan. Li Hong said categorically, "There is no room for negotiation in this matter, you should set off immediately." ”

Zheng Xin hesitated for a moment, and said hesitantly, "Your Excellency has changed recently? ”

"Oh?" Li Hong asked strangely, "What has changed?" ”

"Now, you don't discuss many things with us, and you make your own decisions. It's no longer like in the past, when everyone is discussing things together......"

Li Hong laughed: "Shouyan, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better, once something happens, you will be an accomplice and be implicated." Don't talk nonsense, I have my own way of doing things. You do it quickly. ”

Zheng Xin stood up helplessly, looking reluctant.

Li Hong pointed to his nose and scolded with a smile: "Only the three of us know about this matter, and it's not to give you face." If you want to go, I'll tell Zilong to go. ”

Zheng Xin hurriedly put on a smiling face and said, "I'll go, I'll go." Anyway, we are brothers in life and death, since you don't want your life, then what do I want this life for? I'm with you. ”

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

Xian Yufu, Jade, Heng Sacrifice, Lou Lu, and Shooting Yingtong were invited by Zhao Yun to Li Hong's residence one by one.

Lou Lu is now convinced of Li Hong, and is even willing to give his life for him. Just for one thing, he had this strong thought in his heart. Li Hong respected him very much. This kind of respect and attention, he has not enjoyed in his own tribe. This kind of equal respect is desired by everyone, but there are too few people in this world who can get it. Every time there was something important, Li Hong always sent someone to invite him to be there. He couldn't understand the Chinese dialect, so he sat next to him and explained to him from time to time, and sometimes Li Hong personally translated for him. He was very moved. Just this little thing made him understand why a person who was born lowly and said to have an abnormal brain was so supported and loved by soldiers. He treats any soldier like his own brother, who would not give him his life? Lou Lu felt that he was willing to work for him.

Li Hong told them that he was going north to Changshan with his troops. Handan City is temporarily supplemented by Xian, Jade takes the shooting tiger, and Lu Huanyang sits in charge. The Five Thousand Yan Zhao Tribe, led by Yan Wuxing and Xiao Lazy, continued to train in Handan. He only took the black panther Yicong and shot Yingtong about 3,000 iron horsemen to the north.

"My lord, more than 3,000 people are going north, can they take down the county of Changshan?" She Yingtong asked suspiciously.

"According to the latest news sent by the Julu County Government, the troops in Yuanshi City now have 1,000 soldiers Cao Peng Shi Liu Bei of Pingyuan County, 1,000 soldiers of Jinan State Cao Peng Shi Wu Bo Tribe, 1,000 Commander Pan Feng of Julu County, and 3,000 Commander Zhang Yin of Bohai County, a total of 6,000 men and horses, if you add our cavalry, there are 10,000 horses, and it is definitely not possible to attack Zhending City head-on, but it is still barely possible to surround Zhending."

"According to the news we got, after the Battle of the Yellow Turban Army, due to internal contradictions, Yang Feng and Bai Huan left Zhang Yan and each went south to Montenegro with their troops, so Zhang Yan now has a maximum of 50,000 troops."

"With our 10,000-foot cavalry army, it is still certain to defeat Zhang Yan's 50,000 Yellow Turban Army. What do you think? Li Hong asked with a smile.

"I'm against it." Jade Shi said unceremoniously, "We have defeated Zhongshan Kingdom, rescued Julu County, and now we have recovered Zhao Kingdom, the troops have marched thousands of miles, and the soldiers have lost more than half of them, so we must let the soldiers rest for a while anyway." This is a war, not a tour, the soldiers march continuously, fight continuously, and are extremely tired physically and mentally, what good is this for the Fengyun Iron Cavalry? I am against it, I am firmly against it. ”

Heng Sai also said, "My lord, the soldiers really need to rest. Jizhou is far away from the northern frontier, and many soldiers and war horses are not accustomed to the water and soil, and it will take a while to adapt. My lord, do you think about it again? ”

"Your Excellency wants to fulfill your promise to Lord Liu?" Xian Yufu said with a smile, "But I don't think it's in a hurry, let's wait for the people from the Prime Minister of Zhao Guoguo Mansion to arrive, and our eight thousand troops will go over together." ”

Since Liu Yu told him that he would find a way to promote him to a military post after returning to Beijing, he was in a very good mood and felt energetic in everything. He felt that he still wanted to be an official subconsciously, and even dreamed of fighting the world with Li Hong, and one day he could be a general, make a name for himself in the world, and glorify his ancestors. He was born in a small official family in Yuyang County, has a lot of ability and ambition, and fantasizes about assisting the country and the people and doing a career, but in this world, if you don't be an official or a big official, you can't do anything, let alone assist the country and the people. Serving the country, everyone will say this. But in this era, even if you want to serve the country, you have to have the conditions, and not everyone is qualified to serve the country. It is not easy for a small official like himself from a humble family to do something real. After he succeeded in his studies, he worked as a small official in Yuyang, Liaodong, and Zhuojun county governments, and knew the hardships and helplessness of being an official, and even more so the power and prestige of being an official. What is the purpose of studying and learning martial arts since childhood? In order to be an official. Now, he is finally looking forward to an opportunity to be a senior official with a rank of 2,000 stones.

This is all thanks to Li Hong. Without the talent and achievements of the person in front of you, there is no chance of promotion. All the battles that Li Hong fought, he had to analyze and figure out carefully afterwards, and later he realized a truth, he did not have the talent to fight. Li Hong's ideas and methods for fighting wars are very good at mastering the mysteries and know-how of them, and his own ideas are always confined to the shackles of the art of war, and he cannot reach the realm of Li Hong's ease of thinking and unbridled imagination. That's the gap. So he always wondered, if he had been following Li Hong, would he be a general one day?
