Zhang Yun's words made Huang Zhong feel extremely ashamed. Although what Zhang Yun said was true, Huang Zhong still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, Zhang Yun, as the Grand Sima, was deprived of his position by Liu Qi in disguise and gave way to

Huang Zhong always felt as if he was taking away Zhang Yun's power.

"Da Sima, the general is just a warrior and has no ability to control everyone. The general will write to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to take back his orders! The war is about to begin, how can we change the general on the battlefield?"

After saying that, Huang Zhong turned around and hurried away towards the rear.

"Stop!" Zhang Yun shouted at Huang Zhong, his expression extremely serious.

Huang Zhong stopped and turned to look at Zhang Yun doubtfully.

"Han Sheng, don't be willful! How can you still be so unstable when talking and doing things at such an old age?!"

Huang Zhong's expression was a little strange, and he looked at Zhang Yun blankly, not knowing what to say.

This is the first time someone has said that he is... unstable?

But Zhang Yun cleared his throat and said loudly to the generals in the tent: "Generals, don't feel sad for Zhang, and don't feel sorry for Zhang... As a minister of His Majesty, Zhang should serve his Majesty wholeheartedly.

I must be loyal to His Majesty! Not to mention that Your Majesty wants to remove me from my post, but His Majesty wants me to donate this head. As long as it can help Your Majesty to unify the country, it means that Zhang’s bones will be crushed and ashes will be scattered. What’s the point?”

When Zhang Yun said this, he had an upright and awe-inspiring look on his face, and his resounding words actually aroused a sense of resonance in the hearts of all the generals present.

Even Cai Ye, who had never been on good terms with Zhang Yun, couldn't help but be filled with emotion after hearing Zhang Yun's speech, and felt infinite admiration in his heart.

The person named Zhang is indeed no ordinary person. Although he is very annoying, I have to say that he does have something extraordinary... very tight.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yun was heard shouting again: "Your Majesty's dismissal of Mr. Zhang is not a personal grudge, but for the sake of the overall situation. I know my abilities best. Zhang is more than capable of defending, but not aggressive enough."

, In order to achieve a smooth unification, His Majesty had no choice but to change generals before the formation. As His Majesty's ministers, we must understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts. No matter where you are deployed by Your Majesty, there must be Your Majesty's reasons.

, you should all keep this truth in mind!"

After saying that, I saw Zhang Yun looking back and forth at everyone, and said: "In the name of Grand Sima, Mr. Zhang today tells you that your Majesty has dispatched me today, and he may dispatch you in the future. Mr. Zhang hopes that no matter what,

Please understand who your Majesty will dispatch the next day, and don't feel resentful, because your Majesty needs to take care of the whole world!"

When all the generals heard this, they all bowed their hands and paid homage, shouting loudly: "Da Sima is wise! We will remember Da Sima's teachings."

Xun You, Xu Shu, Liu Ye and others looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

It has to be said that although Zhang Yun was not good at using troops, he did a really good job in cooperating with the king to appease the generals, so good that even everyone present could not compare with him.

When word of this incident reached Liu Qi, even if Zhang Yun had not made any achievements, he would still be rated as the number one hero in Liu Qi's heart.

This is Zhang Yun's ability. Even if his abilities are mediocre and he cannot make any military exploits, he will always occupy an important position in Liu Qi's heart.

Looking at Zhang Yun's performance, Huang Zhong, who had just taken over Zhang Yun's position, couldn't help but sigh, secretly thinking that compared to this old man, he seemed to have a lot more to learn.

…

After Zhang Yun transferred back to Guanzhong, Huang Zhong temporarily took charge of the war situation in the North on Zhang Yun's behalf.

Although Huang Zhong became the Protector-General, he was still relatively modest. He met with Xun You, Kuai Yue, Xu Shu, Liu Ye and other important ministers to discuss the next strategy for advancing the army.

According to the strategy discussed by everyone, Xun You finally decided to let Huang Zhong adopt Tai Shici's strategy, and let the generals divide their forces to begin to attack the hinterland of Hebei and the Central Plains. At the same time, he conveyed confidence to Zhang Yan and asked him to find the right time to prepare to cooperate with his own counterattack.

In addition, Liu Yu of Luoyang ordered his minister Wang Can to write a petition against the thieves.

This memorandum against thieves was written quite thoroughly. It listed the pseudo-emperor Liu Zhuan, the pseudo-prime minister Yuan Shao, the pseudo-prime minister Cao Cao, including Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Shen Pei and others one by one.

The message spread to the Central Plains of Hebei and spread among the people, which greatly damaged the morale of the puppet dynasty in Hebei.

On the other hand, Liu Qi also sent people to Liangzhou to ask Jia Xu and Fa Zheng to return to support them.

…

Liangzhou, within the county office of Weiwu County.

After more than half a year of battles and close and distant relations, among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, the countries to the east have basically surrendered to the Han Dynasty. At the same time, a large number of merchants and colonists in the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, under Liu Qi’s national policies and Jia Xu’s

Under the implementation of the plan to march towards the Western Regions, the entire territory of the Western Regions has been gradually moved by the leverage of the Han Dynasty.

The key to why Jia Xu was able to turn his hand into clouds and rain in the Western Regions was that he had two trump cards. One was composed of Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son, Yan Xing, Pang De, Meng Da and others.

In order to build a strong army, the two most important factors are that Li Ru secretly implemented the strategy of co-operation in the Western Regions, causing all the countries in the Western Regions to fight with each other.

The countries in the Western Regions were not at peace with each other to begin with, and Li Ru secretly and systematically sow discord, resulting in frequent battles and more conflicts between them.

In this way, the Western Region Protectorate of the Han Dynasty could take the opportunity to obtain greater benefits in the Western Regions.

"Daduhu!"

Inside the county office, Li Ru walked in hurriedly, bowed to Jia Xu, and said: "Dadu protector, why are you so worried about looking for me? I have all the troubles there, and Wuzi's side is full of troubles.

The prince and his grandson are already showing signs of rebellion, and I need to quickly add fire to this!"

Jia Xu was reading with his head down. After hearing this, a smile appeared on his face and said: "You are quite busy."

"You rush me every day, can I stop being busy? Why are you looking for me?"

Jia Xu stood up slowly and said, "You have to follow me back to the Central Plains."

"Go back to the Central Plains?" After hearing this, Li Ru couldn't help but feel excited: "What are you going back to the Central Plains for?"

"Your Majesty is eager to advance the army and unify it. He asked Fa Zheng to send his war horses back to Guanzhong for use on the front line. In addition, he also asked you and me to take the Liangzhou sergeants back to help in the battle."

Hearing this, Li Ru chuckled and said, "Your Majesty will be shocked if he sees the combat power of our Liangzhou sergeants... But I don't want to go back."

"What? Are you afraid that people in the Central Plains will hate you?"

Li Ru sighed softly and said: "I am living a good life here now. I really don't want to get involved in the affairs of the Central Plains. Besides, there are too many people in the Central Plains who cannot tolerate me."

Jia Xu stood up slowly and said: "You have your own ideas, but whether you should go back or not is not up to you. The great cause of unification is of great importance. Your Majesty needs you, me and the soldiers of Liangzhou. You
