Wen Zhao's face was full of smiles, but an undetectable cold light flashed in his eyes.

Chen Xu turned to the Son of Heaven and said, "Dasi Nong is dedicated to the country, but how can a civilian lead the army to the battle?" ”

Zhu Jun and Dong Cheng were still full of joy, but after hearing Wen Zhao's words, their smiles suddenly froze on their faces.

Dong Cheng hurriedly played: "Da Si Nong is still concurrently serving as the acting hussar general, why can't he lead the troops to the battle?" ”

Wen Zhao nodded slightly and said, "With Da Si Nong's military exploits and prestige, it is okay to really hold the position of hussar general." ”

"Your Majesty, please crown Dasi Nong as the official hussar general, lead 2,000 troops to garrison Hanoi County, and quell the bandits!"

As soon as Wen Zhao's voice fell, the whole hall was shocked. Everyone didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Chen Xu's gourd.

Even Liu Xie on the dragon chair was a little stunned. Although he has a good sense of Chen Xu, he also knows that this person attaches great importance to military power and is unwilling to hand it over to others easily.

Now Wen Zhao not only asked Zhu Jun to be the hussar general, but also asked him to lead the troops to Hedong County. This kind of transformation is a little confusing to everyone.

Only Yang Biao, the captain who squinted slightly, looked at Zhu Jun and Dong Zhao with some concern, and secretly thought in his heart: "I never thought that Gongwei would actually mix with people like Dong Cheng." ”

"You must know that Chen Wenzhao is not an easy person. If you want to pull out your teeth in the tiger's mouth, this is self-defeating. ”

Dong Chengnai was a vulgar martial artist, and he was originally looked down upon by the Manchu ministers. After Chen Xu stripped off his shirt and paraded on the street with a flail, Dong Cheng's reputation was even more discredited.

After hesitating, Yang Biao didn't interject after all, squinting his eyes slightly, not getting involved in this matter.

Liu Xie hesitated for a moment and asked again, "Does the general really think so?" ”

Wen Zhao replied respectfully: "In front of Your Majesty, how dare the minister speak falsely? ”

Turning his gaze to Yang Biao, who was pretending to be asleep, Liu Xie asked, "Captain Yang, what do you think of the general's suggestion?" ”

Yang Biao opened his eyes and said nonchalantly: "But please let Your Majesty decide!" ”

Liu Xie asked the rest of the ministers again: "Add Dasi Nong as a hussar general and lead the troops to garrison Hedong County, I don't know if you have any objections?" ”

"We have no objection!"

So far, the ministers of the DPRK and China either have some ideas in their hearts or go with the flow, and no one opposes them.

Seeing this, Liu Xie said to Zhu Jun: "Since this is the case, I will make Zhu Aiqing a hussar general and lead 2,000 troops to garrison Hanoi County. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

But he didn't want to, Dong Cheng suddenly said: "Your Majesty, bandits are rampant in Hanoi County, if you only lead two thousand soldiers and horses, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deter the bandits." ”

Liu Xie once again set his eyes on Wen Zhao, revealing an inquiring look.

Wen Zhao said: "The hussar generals are like gods, and their fame is shocking to the world. Just bandits, why worry about it? ”

"You must know that Zhang Wenyuan, the general under my command, broke the 10,000 wolf iron cavalry with 500 cavalry. Could it be that the world-famous hussar general is not as good as a junior general under my command? ”

Speaking of this, the corners of Chen Xu's mouth curled up in a mocking arc.

When Zhu Jun heard this, his face changed slightly, and Dong Cheng also stopped speaking. It was only at this time that they knew that Chen Xu was still full of resentment towards the two.

The more this is the case, the more grounded they become. If Chen Xu really didn't react at all, it would make the two of them feel abnormal.

After everyone thought that the matter had been decided, Wen Zhao suddenly said: "Although 2,000 troops are already a lot, what General Dong said is also good. ”

"In order to strengthen the strength of the hussar general, the minister is willing to send several lieutenant generals to assist the hussar general to quell the bandits in Hanoi County."

Speaking of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Chen Xu's mouth.

Dong Cheng and Zhu Jun glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

Chen Xu's move can really be said to be a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, even if Zhu Jun led troops to garrison Hanoi County, these soldiers were also loyal to Chen Xu. If Zhu Jun was given time, he fully believed that he would be able to convince these soldiers.

However, if a few more lieutenants are dispatched, then Zhu Jun will become an outright puppet.

Dong Cheng hurriedly said: "Kill chickens with a knife? How can the generals under the command of the great general, who have made great achievements in the southern and northern wars with the general, be used to exterminate some insignificant bandits? ”

"A certain recommendation of two people is enough to assist the hussar general and pacify the bandits in Hedong County."

When Wen Zhao heard Dong Cheng's words, he sneered in his heart.

"Just now I also said that the bandits in Hedong County are serious, and I asked for more troops. All of a sudden, it was said that those bandits were insignificant, and they were really harboring evil intentions! ”

Although he hated to kill Dong Cheng in his heart, Wen Zhao had a gentle smile on his face and asked, "Who can assist the hussar general?" ”

Dong Cheng hurriedly replied: "Changshui Captain Chongji and Wu Shuo, the Lang Lang, once fought in the south and the north, and made great achievements, which is enough to take on this important task. ”

Wen Zhao's eyes flickered a few times, and he asked again, "Is there anyone else?" ”

Dong Chengdao: "This two people are enough!" ”

Wen Zhao laughed twice and said: "Since this is the case, then let the captain of Changshui, Chongji, and Wu Shuo, the commander of the council, be stationed in Hanoi County with the hussar general, and pacify the bandits!" ”

Chen Xu's words once again surprised everyone. They originally thought that Wen Zhao would insist on installing close generals and accompanying Zhu Jun on the expedition.

Unexpectedly, after Dong Cheng recommended the two, Wen Zhao relented.

Even Captain Yang Biao frowned slightly, and secretly thought, "What does Chen Wenzhao mean by this?" ”

No one knew what Yang Biao was thinking, Dong Cheng and Zhu Jun saw that Chen Xu was so easy, so they agreed to go on the expedition together, and they were overjoyed.

However, now the two of them dare not relax. After all, Chen Xu surprised them several times today.

They don't know if Wen Zhao's next sentence will surprise people again.

But he didn't want to, Wen Zhao didn't make things difficult for the two of them anymore, but asked, "When will the hussar general be able to go on the expedition?" ”

Zhu Jun hurriedly replied: "Order troops to collect grain and grass today, and you can go to the expedition tomorrow!" ”

He now very much wants to leave Kasaka, whether it is for the sake of leading the troops and controlling the military power; Or in order to avoid killing himself, he had to do so.

During this time, as the situation in Guanzhong gradually stabilized, and Chen Xu's position was stabilized. Zhu Jun felt more and more that many of the generals under Chen Xu were full of malice towards him.

If it weren't for his status, I'm afraid these generals would have killed Zhu Jun a long time ago. Rao is like this, Zhu Jun is also terrified every day, and he can't stop worrying.

He could feel that if he didn't want to leave Pusaka again, he would one day be killed by Chen Xu, the former general of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was so powerful that it was extinguished by Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi, and I don't know how many Yellow Turban Army generals and soldiers died at the hands of these three people.

Among the three, Huangfu Song has been killed by Chen Xu, and Lu Zhi has died of illness three years ago. Among the three famous generals who suppressed the Yellow Turban Uprising, only Zhu Jun is still alive.

At the beginning, Zhu Jun killed Zhao Hong, the commander of the Yellow Turban Qu, and besieged Wancheng.

Han Zhong, the Yellow Turban general of Wancheng, asked for surrender, but Zhu Jun blatantly refused, and then broke through Wancheng and slaughtered the Yellow Turban army in the city, even the families of the Yellow Turban soldiers.

It can be said that for the Yellow Turban Army, Zhu Jun committed many crimes. All the Yellow Turban Army in the world hate to eat their flesh raw.

Chen Xu was born in the Yellow Turban, and the most loyal generals and soldiers under his command were all Yellow Turban soldiers before.

When Wen Zhao first got Guanzhong, even though these people hated Zhu Jun very much, they didn't dare to risk the world's condemnation and harm Zhu Jun's life. The generals of the Yellow Turban Army under his command naturally endured it all the time.

However, as time passed, this hatred did not weaken in the slightest, but became more and more intense. Especially after Zhang Ling came to Pusaka, she was also full of malice towards Zhu Jun.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Jun got together with Dong Cheng, a person who has always been looked down upon by others, hoping to leave Pusaka with the help of his strength.

Chen Xu looked at Zhu Jun with a smile on his face and said, "In this case, I hope that the hussar general can put down the rebellion in Hanoi County as soon as possible and share your Majesty's worries." ”

"The Lu of the Eater should be the worry of the King!"

Chen Xu let out a long laugh and clapped his hands: "The hussar general is really a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, Xu will hold a banquet in the mansion tonight, and dare to invite the hussar general and General Dong Cheng to the banquet." ”

Zhu Jun and Dong Cheng's faces changed, and they all secretly thought in their hearts: "Could it be that Chen Wenzhao wants to set up a Hongmen banquet?" ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw a hint of fear in each other's eyes.

Zhu Jun was the first to speak: "I am entrusted by His Majesty, and I am so worried, how can I have the heart to go to the banquet?" What's more, now that there is a shortage of food in Guanzhong, it is better to save it. ”

Dong Cheng also nodded yes, unwilling to go to the banquet.

Wen Zhao's face sank, and he said to them: "The two of you look down on me Chen Wenzhao? ”

Zhu Jun puffed up his chest and said, "The general is in a high position, how dare we look down on the general?" It's just that a certain person has the emperor's order, and he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest! ”

Glancing at the two of them coldly, Chen Xu snorted and said goodbye to Liu Xie.

After the Manchu Dynasty saw Wen Zhao leave, many people stepped forward to say hello to Zhu Jun. But there are still many people who deliberately alienate Zhu Jun.

Cheng Yu stood aside, looked at those who said hello to Zhu Jun, and secretly wrote them all down.

But after retiring from the dynasty, Zhu Jun and Dong Cheng returned to the mansion, and they were a little nervous. They didn't know if Chen Xu would secretly send assassins to assassinate them.

For the safety of his family, Dong Cheng sent a large number of guards in the mansion. After Zhu Jun ordered 2,000 soldiers and horses, he directly entered the barracks.

However, until dawn the next day, neither of them noticed anything unusual.

Zhu Jun secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that I have the heart of a villain to live the belly of a gentleman, if Chen Wenzhao really wants to kill me, he will not use such an inferior means as an assassin." ”

"Now that he has a lot of power, he wants me to die, isn't it simple?"

Thinking of this, Zhu Jun smiled self-deprecatingly.
