Liu Yan, who was already gloomy, listened to Fa Zheng at this moment and compared Yuan Shao, who had already been killed by Chu Yi, as if he had been greatly stimulated, and stood up all of a sudden, and pointed at Fa Zheng viciously: "Good you are filial piety, you are so arrogant, in your eyes, there is still this king." ”

While speaking, Liu Yan didn't wait for Fa Zheng to speak, and said: "Come on, put this crazy birth in prison for me, and wait for the fate!" ”

Immediately, I saw two armored guards outside the hall striding into the main hall, and stepped forward to grab Fa Zheng.

Liu Yan waved his hand and said, "Take it down and go to prison." ”

Although Fa Zheng said that he was caught by two armored guards, he laughed, in fact, with Fa Zheng's own strength, if he wanted to, it was almost impossible to find anyone who could suppress him on the scene, but he still let the two guards take him down without resistance.

"Liu Junlang, either carefully guard the key roads in various passes, or hand over the petition to the imperial court early, so that there is hope for survival......

Listening to Fa Zheng's words, Liu Yan only felt his heart skip a beat, and shouted angrily: "Don't take him down for me yet." ”

Fa Zheng's voice gradually disappeared, and the hall suddenly fell into silence, Liu Yan let out a long breath, sat down, and then looked around at the crowd: "Everyone, why teach me?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, there are examples of Fazheng, who would dare to speak at this time.

Fortunately, Liu Yan calmed down a little at this time, saw everyone's reaction in his eyes, waved his hand, and his eyes fell on Deng Zhi and Wang Lei's bodies and said, "The two gentlemen wait and go to the study with this king, and the rest of the people wait and retreat!" ”

However, when his eyes fell on Zhang Ren, Liu Yan spoke: "General Zhang, you stay for a while!" ”

Everyone dispersed, and Deng Zhi, Wang Lei, and Zhang Ren, who were named by Liu Yan to stay, accompanied Liu Yan to the study.

Walking into the study, Liu Yan exhaled a breath, sat down, and at the same time ordered the three of them to sit down, and then looked at a few people with an expectant face: "Few, why did this king invite you to come, you all know it in your hearts, and now this king asks you, but is there any good way for me to Yizhou to resist the Chu thief?" ”

Although Chu Yi has not targeted Yizhou now, Liu Yan is not a fool, there were Yuan Shao and Liu Xie in front of them before, as long as the two are there, then the first target of the Luoyang Imperial Court must be the two, as for Liu Yan, who is the king, naturally it cannot be compared with Yuan Shao and Liu Xie.

I thought that I could be the king and hegemon in Yizhou, but I never thought that Yuan Shao would be suppressed like this, and the Chang'an court would disappear in a short period of time, and Liu Yan couldn't do it without panic.

Looking at the panicked look in Liu Yan's eyes, Wang Lei and Deng Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

They naturally know the current form of Yizhou, although after Liu Yan became the king, in order to protect himself, he also ordered the expansion of the soldiers and horses under his command, but in such a short period of time, it did not play a big role at all.

Wang Lei stroked his beard and looked at Zhang Rendao, who was sitting on the side: "General Zhang, I don't know how many soldiers I have in Yizhou now?" ”

Zhang Ren first glanced at Wang Lei, and then said slowly: "On the orders of the prince, Yizhou has recruited soldiers on a large scale, and now there are almost more than 100,000 soldiers on the register. ”

100,000 soldiers and horses can be said to be too much in the past, and the entire Yizhou before the Yellow Turban Rebellion added up to more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Now it's a tenfold increase, and it can even be said that if there is enough time, even if more soldiers and horses are recruited, it will not be a problem.

Liu Yan obviously didn't have an accurate understanding of the number of men and horses under his command, and when he heard Zhang Ren say this, he couldn't help but say with his eyes: "I have so many soldiers and horses in Yizhou?" ”

If other people hear this, I am afraid that it will be funny, as the lord of one party, he doesn't know how many soldiers and horses he has, but I am afraid that Liu Yan is also the only one.

However, Wang Lei, Deng Zhi, and Zhang Ren were not surprised at all, on the one hand, it was not long after Liu Yan ordered the expansion of the army, not to mention Liu Yan, even Wang Lei, Deng Zhi and they didn't know, I am afraid that it is the huge Yizhou, except for Zhang Ren and a few people, others do not know the details of Yizhou.

Thinking that he had an army of 100,000 under his command, several times more than he had thought before, this made Liu Yan feel a lot more confident, and looked at Wang Lei and Deng Zhi: "There are so many soldiers and horses, if it is supplemented by the steep terrain of my Sichuan-Shu land, it is not that I am not sure to block the imperial army from Sichuan-Shu." ”

It's not that Liu Yan doesn't know that Fa Zheng's words are reasonable, but to let him honestly give up everything at hand, surrender to the imperial court, and then leave his life and death to others, which is absolutely unacceptable to Liu Yan.

If Fa Zheng said that he could persuade him in private, maybe Liu Yan would not be so angry, but in front of so many people, Fa Zheng actually demolished his platform and hit the confidence of a group of people to resist the imperial court, which made Liu Yan angry, so even if he knew that Fa Zheng's talent was unmatched, but who let Fa Zheng touch his bottom line, and he didn't behead him in a fit of anger, it was already Liu Yan's thoughts and past feelings.

Taking a deep breath, Deng Zhi said: "Lord Wang, the Chu thief is powerful, there are many elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, and there is a jade seal of the country in hand, I am afraid of ...... I'm just afraid ......"

Liu Yan's face suddenly turned cold, he glared at Deng Zhi, and his eyes fell on Zhang Ren.

Zhang Ren is the general he relies on the most, if even Zhang Ren doesn't support him, Liu Yan really has to consider Fa Zheng's proposal.

But Zhang Ren was beyond the expectations of Wang Ti and Deng Zhi, and said to Liu Yan with a solemn face: "Lord Wang, no matter how strong Chu Yi is, he is also a human being, and the last general does not believe that with the natural dangers of Sichuan and Shu and a group of soldiers, the imperial army cannot be resisted from Sichuan and Shu." ”

"Well, it's not in vain that the king trusts you so much!"

For Zhang Ren, to be honest, Liu Yan really has great trust, almost all the soldiers and horses in Yizhou are in the hands of Zhang Ren, it can be said that if Zhang Ren has any two hearts, even if he doesn't overturn Liu Yan, I'm afraid it will hurt Liu Yan's vitality.

Zhang Ren's expression was calm, and a strange color flashed in his eyes and said: "Lord Wang, the last general will recommend someone to the Lord Wang, if this person is willing to make a move, it may not be possible to hold Yizhou a little more." ”

Not only Liu Yan, but also Wang Lei and Deng Zhi couldn't help but look at Zhang Ren curiously, obviously very puzzled, to be able to make Zhang Ren so respectful, where is the other party sacred.

The corners of Zhang Ren's mouth showed a little smile, but there was a bit of solemnity in his expression: "How did the prince forget Zhang Lu and Zhang Gongqi!" ”

Hearing Zhang Ren mention Zhang Lu, Liu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and even Wang Lei and Deng Zhi also showed a sudden look.

Brushing his beard, Liu Yan couldn't help laughing and said: "Who is recommended by this king as a general, I never thought it would be Zhang Gongqi, if this person is this person, it is indeed as the general said, it can make us a little more sure." ”

Wang Lei said slowly: "Zhang Lu is on the order of the prince to occupy the land of Hanzhong, and in the Hanzhong generation, he has spread the Five Doumi Sect and proclaimed himself the leader, ****, there is a faint tendency to divide one side, this person is ambitious, and he is only afraid of ......"

Liu Yan said with a smile: "What he wants is his ambition Zhang Gongqi, when he killed Zhang Xiu, captured Hanzhong, and did not listen to the order of this king, this king knows how kind of heart this person is, but now it seems that if he Zhang Gongqi wants to keep the Wudou Rice Sect and keep Hanzhong, then he must join forces with this king to resist the tentacles of the imperial court and reach into the land of Yizhou." ”

Zhang Ren nodded and said: "Yes, Zhang Gongqi spread the Wudou Rice Sect in Hanzhong, with the Yellow Turban Rebellion in front, as long as the imperial court recaptures Yizhou, it will definitely not allow the existence of the Wudou Rice Sect, and Zhang Gongqi has worked hard all his life in the Wudou Rice Sect, whoever wants to move the Wudou Rice Sect is Zhang Gongqi's mortal enemy, even if it is the Son of Heaven in person, I am afraid that he Zhang Gongqi will dare to fight with him." ”

Liu Yan said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Then the news will be sent to Zhang Gongqi, this king wants to see, how is his magical means compared to Chu Yi?" ”

Chu Yi's subordinates are as strong as clouds, but the Five Dou Rice Sect is extremely prosperous in Zhang Lu's hands, and Zhang Lu himself is also a rare strong man, so Liu Yan hopes to see Zhang Lu and Chu Yi conflict.

The land of Yizhou here reacted because of the death of Yuan Shao and the news that Chang'an City was broken, but Chu Yi, who beheaded Yuan Shao and broke Chang'an City, was not busy returning to the court, but led the army to Xiliang.

The land of Xiliang was originally the place where Dong Zhuo started, and it was also his sphere of influence, if it wasn't for Dong Zhuo's death, the land of Xiliang would have fallen into the hands of Dong Zhuo.

However, with Dong Zhuo's death, the generals of the Xiliang army attached themselves to Yuan Shao, which made the land of Xiliang suddenly become a power vacuum.

Han Sui is an ambitious person, where is he willing to let go of such a good opportunity, relying on his prestige among the Hu people in the land of Xiliang, he immediately ascended to the heights, and was stunned to pull up a rebel army to come out and occupy several counties.

The main attention of the Chang'an court was on how to deal with Luoyang's reaction, so it didn't pay much attention to Han Sui, who occupied the land of Xiliang, and the swollen rebels under his command, and even in order to prevent Han Sui from taking the opportunity to disturb his rear, Yuan Shao even named Han Sui the general of Zhenbei and the marquis of Cen Township.

So Han Sui took root in the land of Xiliang and frantically expanded his own strength, Han Sui hid behind Chang'an with his own little abacus, but when he got the news that Yuan Shao was killed and Chang'an City was breached, the mare's milk wine in the hands of the whole person suddenly became unfragrant.

Han Sui's subordinates can now be said to be strong and strong, with many generals, such as Liang Xing, Candidate, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Ma Wan, Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi and other generals, commanding nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses.

Especially Han Sui's soldiers, horses, and men are mixed, almost most of them are cavalry, it can be said that looking at the world, there are so many cavalrymen like Han Sui in addition to the imperial court, and there is really no second person.

Han Sui looked at the messenger who was trembling on the ground, and waved the other party back with a cold snort, and then looked at the people under his command in the tent.

The eight generals can be said to be Han Sui's henchmen, and they are also the right-hand men of Han Sui's nearly 100,000 troops under his rule.

"That Yuan Benchu was so careless, he had so many soldiers and horses under him, he thought he was a man, but he never thought that he couldn't even fight a eunuch."

Liang Xingman said disdainfully.

Yuan Shao's momentum was so great that even Han Sui and them were suppressed, otherwise, they would not have stayed in Xiliang Land honestly and did not invade Chang'an City.

Now that he suddenly found that Yuan Shao was so vulnerable, Liang Xing and the others looked down on Yuan Shao a little bit from their hearts.

Coughing lightly, Han Sui said to the eight generals: "Yuan Shao still has some means and strength, even Hangu Pass has been breached, I'm afraid that this time the Chu thief is not good." ”

Ma Yu looked at Han Sui and said, "Master Hou, what should we do?" ”

Han Sui stroked his beard, squinted his eyes, and gradually showed a little smile at the corner of his mouth, with a bit of playfulness: "Chu Yi came on behalf of the imperial court to raise the army, and I, as a courtier of the Han family, please surrender since I was on the table?" ”

"What?"

Hearing Han Sui say this, the eight generals were stunned one by one, but they quickly reacted.

Han Sui is a person who can bend and stretch, it can be said that he has frequent schemes, and he has been able to entrench himself in one side for decades in history, so he is naturally not comparable to ordinary figures.

Often under Han Sui's hands, he naturally has a little understanding of Han Sui's personality, although he was a little surprised to hear Han Sui's decision to surrender suddenly, but he quickly came back to his senses.

The above table does not mean that they have lost the power in their hands, according to the normal situation, they have a large number of troops, and they occupy the bitter cold land of the western cool, as long as they surrender obediently and give the court a step, then the court will definitely not mobilize troops to conquer them, and even reward and appease them.

As long as they have the right to soldiers, the court is nothing, when the court is powerful, they will honestly stay in the Xiliang land, once the world changes, they can tear off the skin of the court on their bodies at any time and call the king the hegemon, just like they accepted the reward of the Chang'an court before, since even the reward of the Chang'an court can be received, then why can't they accept the reward of the Luoyang court.
