Chapter 196: Chang'an Changes, Zhang Liaotou

"Get out of here! After. He commanded the gates to be guarded. Facing Hou Chenglian, the two surnamed the enemy said: "You and gather your respective families, if Chang'an City is broken, it will be convenient to escape from the south gate The two of them heard it and asked in surprise: "Wen Hou,"

Lu Bu interrupted the questioning of the two and said lightly: "It's just to get ready." ”

The two of them replied in unison, "Yes, and then they went down."

After that, Lu Bu said to Cao Xing and Cheng Lian: "You go to Wenhou Mansion, if Chang'an City is broken, take them from the south city gate, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao are guarding the south city gate at this time, and it is not easy to be attacked if you want to come there."

The two glanced at each other and replied in unison, "No."

After giving the order, Lu Bu led his guards to inspect the city gates.

Here, after Xu Huang asked the armor to inquire about the news, he pondered silently for a while.

The rest of the armor soldiers also heard what the armor soldier said, and they all looked at Xu Huang, and one of them asked, "General, what should you do at this time?" ”

Xu Huang heard it and said: "Without further ado, while it is not dark now, rush to the south gate first, choose the opportunity to see Wen Yuan, and complete the trust of the lord as soon as possible." ”

Thirty armorers replied, "No,"

How Xu Huang went to the south gate, I won't say it for the time being, but I just said that Zhang Liaodao's general Gao Shun guarded the south gate of Chang'an City together.

The two of them stood at the head of the city and looked up at the night sky, only to hear Gao Shun say: "Wenyuan, Wen Hou lost to Li Yu and the others this morning

Zhang Liao nodded and said: "That's right, Li Xuan and others are powerful, and although Wen Hou has more than 50,000 people, but the soldiers who have incorporated Niu Fu have not yet had the strength to fight, and the only people who can really fight are the 20,000 wolf horsemen of Wen Hou's headquarters." With 20,000 against 100,000, even with Wenhou martial arts, it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists. ”

After a pause, Zhang Liao sighed again: "The wolf cavalry of Bingzhou formed by the Duke of Jianyang back then, after repeated battles, there are only 20,000 people left, but it is hateful that the Marquis of Wen and the villain Li Su were deceived and killed the Duke of Jianyang by mistake

Gao Shun heard it and said, "Is Wen Yuan still blaming Wen Hou for killing Jianyang Gong by mistake?" No one is at fault, and now that Wen Hou has killed Dong Thief, it can be regarded as making up for the merits and eliminating the harm for the young

Zhang Liao was silent for a long time before he said: "As soon as Dong Zhuo dies, I am afraid that Guanzhong will be more chaotic, and it is only the people who suffer." After a pause, Zhang Liao said again: "I heard that Nanyang County has been governed by Zhang Boyuan. At this time, it was full of vitality, and all the displaced people in Sili flocked to Nanyang County, and even many people near Chang'an fled to Nanyang County. ”

Gao Shun heard it and asked, "Wen Yuan thinks Zhang Xiu is the master?" Zhang Liao nodded, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Gao Shun saw it and asked again: "Then how about my brotherly relationship?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "Liao has always been a brother to Wen Hou and Brother Gao, but Liao has long told Brother Gao that Wen Hou has an impetuous personality, and if he assists a master, he may be like Wei Huo and leave his name in history." But it's a pity that Wen Hou mistakenly voted for Dong Zhuo and was infamous as a three-surnamed house slave, although he killed Dong Zhuo now, but Wen Hou has repeatedly rebelled, who dares to use it. ”

Gao Shun sighed: "That's right, Wen Hou probably expected that this battle would be lost, so he asked you and me to guard the south gate, thinking that it was the way to escape."

Just as the two were talking, one of Zhang Liao's personal guards reported: "General, there is a person outside who asks to see him, claiming to be the general's deceased. ”

Zhang Liao listened, nodded, and asked the guards to go down. Gao Shun next to him suddenly said: "It seems that Wen Yuan is expected again, Zhang Xiu will really send someone to Wen Yuan."

Zhang Liao nodded and said: "Bo Yuan has long had the intention of recruiting Liao, but Liao was worried about it at that time

Gao Shun heard this and asked, "Wen Yuan is really not ready to create a career with Wen Hou and his brother?" ”

After hearing this, Zhang Liao sighed and said: "Wen Hou and Brother Gao treat Liao very well, like brothers, but Liao also said that Wen Hou is not the master. Bo Yuan puts the people first in everything, and his courage is extraordinary, and his benevolence and courage are admired by Liao, and he is really the master. Brother Gao, please forgive Liao for not being able to create a career with Wen Hou, Brother Gao and the brothers. However, Wen Hou and Brother Gao will always be the two eldest brothers that Liao admires the most, and the rest of the brothers are also Liao's brothers in life and death.

Gao Shun saw that Zhang Liao was far away, so he sighed and said to the dark place on the other side: "Wen Hou, Wen Yuan is gone, why don't you come out and keep him, I believe that Wen Hou will stay, Wen Yuan will definitely stay."

In the darkness next to him, Lu Bu's tall figure turned out. Lu Bu smiled and said: "Wen Yuan, this kid has finally grown up, and he won't be the one who will only follow Bu to learn art and charge behind Bu every time he fights." Brat. Since Wen Yuan has his choice, we as his good brothers should support him, even if he meets on the battlefield, we will have to fight with the weapons in our hands

Gao Shun opened his mouth and did not speak. He and Cao Xing and other brothers, in addition to admiring Lu Bu's martial arts, what made them willing to serve was probably the unique heroic character of a martial artist like Lu Bu, as well as his guidance to the eight sons and the two murderers in martial arts. And every time he charged, he was definitely the first to rush out of the sword, and the unique pride of the first military general convinced them.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu in addition to the name of the Yuan family, they also have the style of ancient Meng, Corporal Lixian, although there are many shortcomings, but it does not prevent them from becoming the heroes of the late Han Dynasty. Cao Cao's treachery and heroism, Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness, Sun Jian, Sun Ce's father and son's heroism like a tiger and lion "Of course, Zhang Xiu also has his charm, he is benevolent to the people, in the army, he has a pride, and he has the bearing of a scribe to the scribes, although the three can not reach the extreme, but the seeds together form Zhang Xiu's unique character, as well as the concept of equality brought by him since the crossing, which has a greater impact on the poor scholars and the warriors who have always been left out in the cold.

Let's say that Zhang Liao went to the council hall on the city floor, and when the net walked in, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of the hall. The man heard Zhang Liao's footsteps, turned his head, and said with a smile: "Wen Yuan, don't come to harm?"

Zhang Liao fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xu Huang. Zhang Liao did not show the slightest look of surprise, but said: "Brother Gongming came to see Liao alone, aren't you afraid that Liao will catch Brother Gongming as a spy?" It must be known that Liao knew that Brother Gongming had come to the South City Gate in the afternoon

After hearing this, Xu Huang smiled and said, "If Wen Yuan wants to catch Huang, how can he come to see Huang alone." ”

Zhang Liao saw Xu Huang's smile, so he said: "Brother Gongming's intention Liao also guessed one or two, Liao can deal with this matter, but if Zhang Xiu does something like Dong Zhuo, Liao will leave."

Xu Huang heard this and said with a smile: "Wen Yuan, rest assured, when Huang voted for the lord, he also said the same thing, I'm afraid that Huang will leave with Wen Yuan then."

After hearing this, Zhang Liao laughed and said, "Gongming is really Liao's confidant."

Xu Huang smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect Huang to complete the lord's trust without saying a word, it's really a blessing."

Zhang Liao didn't finish speaking, just smiled and patted Xu Huang's shoulder.

Just as Xu Huang was about to ask Zhang Liao when he would leave, a soldier outside reported: "Report to General Zhang, there is a fire at the north gate, and General Gao asked General Zhang to go to the city to see him." ”

Zhang Liao heard it and said in surprise: "The north gate is on fire? Didn't Wen Hou personally inspect the gates? How could it be possible to break through the city with such a tight defense? Gongming waits for a while, and Liao will come when he goes. ”

Xu Huang heard it and said: "If Wen Yuan has a place to be swayed, and he will say it bluntly."

Zhang Liao heard this, groaned for a while, and said: "The situation outside is not clear, so I will first wronged Gongming."

Before long, Zhang Liao led a personal soldier to the city tower, and if you look carefully, you can see it. The soldier who followed behind Zhang Liao was Xu Huang.

Zhang Liao rushed to the city to see Gao Shun and asked, "Brother Gao, what happened to the fire at the north gate?" ”

Gao Shun didn't answer, but asked, "How did Wen Yuan and Zhang Xiu's people talk?."

Zhang Liao hurriedly said: "Don't talk about this, what's going on?" Even if Liao votes for Zhang Xiu, you are also Liao's good brothers

Gao Shun sighed and said: "This morning, Wenhou was defeated, and when he wanted to go back to the city, he was mixed into the city, according to the spies, it was Wang Fang's thief, who gathered some of Dong Zhuo's remnants in the city and some enemy soldiers who mixed in, opened the north gate and let Li Xu's army in. Now Wen Hou has rushed to the north gate, but looking at the situation, I am afraid that Chang'an will not be able to protect, so he obeyed Wen Hou's order to guard the south gate, thinking that it was a way out. ”

Zhang Liao heard this and asked anxiously: "What about the families of Wenhou and Brother Gao and the brothers?"

Gao Shun sighed: "It's still in the city, but they all have a few brothers to take care of, but the Wenhou Mansion is far away from here, so I'm afraid."

Zhang Liao heard it and said loudly: "Brother Gao is relieved, Liao will go and take the Wen Hou family out, Brother Gao only needs to guard the south gate to turn around and leave."

Gao Shun in the back saw it and shouted, "Wen Yuan remember to be careful. ”

Zhang Liao walked down the city tower and said to Xu Huang: "Gongming, Wenhou and Brother Gao treat me well, and now they are at a critical juncture, and Liao can't abandon them at this time." Liao is now going to save Wen Hou and the families of the brothers, and Brother Gongming will stay here. If Liao returns smoothly, he will go with Gongming to vote for the lord

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Xu Huang, immediately took the big knife, got on the mount, and didn't lead the soldiers, and rushed directly in the direction of Wenhou Mansion alone.

Later, Xu Huang saw it, paused, and said to the soldiers next to him: "Hurry up and lead the horse, when the soldiers didn't know what to do, I saw Gao obedient and came out and said, "And lead the horse for General Xu."

Xu Huang saw it and said to Gao Shun: "Thank you General Gao."

Since Li Xun and others attacked from the north gate, although there were many panicked people walking around on the south side of the city, they had not yet seen the enemy soldiers coming.

And because Zhang Liao was holding a big knife, the people were frightened and avoided one after another, so Zhang Liao advanced very smoothly.

But when he turned into the street where Wenhou Mansion was located, a large number of enemy soldiers appeared, and Zhang Liao didn't think about it, brandished his big knife, and went towards Su.
