Carrying Liu Yu's letter, Liu He hurriedly left Luoyang and came to Liu Qi's camp in Corpse Township.

Before fighting against Yuan Shu, Liu Qi had met Liu He, and the two had formed a relatively deep friendship at that time. As brothers of the same clan, the two met less often, but they recognized each other very much.

After reading Liu Yu's letter, Liu Qi said to Liu He with emotion: "It is too polite for the Grand Master to praise him so much. In fact, when it comes to bloodline and popularity, the Grand Master is more suitable than me."

Liu He shook his head and said: "My father is old and the one who can rule the world is Boyu."

The two chatted about some trivial matters, and Liu He asked Liu Qi: "Bo Yu, now that Xiliang soldiers are coming to attack Luoyang, they have passed the Chang'an border. The matter is urgent, and you need to take action early."

Liu Qi lowered his head and looked at the letter Liu Yu wrote to him on the desk, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Liu He understood what he meant.

"Don't worry, over at the Chancellor's Desk, a merit ode to announce your achievements has been prepared, and it will be publicly distributed throughout the world in less than three days!"

Liu Qi was happy when he heard this.

He laughed and said: "Brother is too preoccupied. I didn't care about this matter at all. I was just thinking about how to force the Xiliang army to retreat, so I was distracted for a moment. Please don't blame me, brother."

Liu He laughed dryly a few times and did not answer.

I believe you are the only one who has ghosts.

"Don't worry, brother, I have my own way to deal with the Xiliang army... Alas, our army has been fighting Yuan Shao for too long. Although we won, we lost troops and generals, and the losses were quite heavy. We should rest and recuperate now, and it is not appropriate to fight with the rebels again. However,

It is not difficult to drive away the rebels. I asked Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to lead 30,000 gold elites and return to Luoyang to garrison first. As long as they arrive, the rebels will not dare to invade when they hear that there is a large army garrisoned in Luoyang.

retreat."

Liu He stroked his beard, his expression remained unchanged, but he secretly exclaimed his wisdom.

He is letting his vanguard troops settle in Luoyang in the most reasonable way, using powerful military power to control the important institutions of Luoyang City, establishing the overall situation, so that the courtiers will have no way to regret it, and then he slowly returns to Luoyang

ascend the throne.

Liu He stood up and said to Liu Qi: "In that case, I will go back to Luoyang first, and please take action as soon as possible to avoid any omissions."

"Thank you for your concern, brother. Don't worry, I will take care of the bandits in the west."

…

Three days later, the tribute to Liu Qi was finally sent out from Luoyang. Although it was not stamped with the emperor's seal, it was sent out in the name of Shangshutai after all. From the perspective of the imperial court, it was naturally fully affirmed.

Liu Qi’s achievements.

A few days after the meritorious deeds were released, the elite Jingzhou army led by Huang Zhong set out from Xixiang and headed straight for Luoyang.

If it were in the past, if Liu Qi had stationed so many troops directly in Luoyang, although he would not receive direct resistance from the courtiers, many people would definitely slander him behind the scenes.

But now, the Xiliang rebels are about to arrive in Luoyang. The whole Luoyang is in panic. The courtiers, ministers and wealthy people in Luoyang are facing tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops. They cannot welcome them anymore.

On the day Huang Zhong entered Luoyang City, the wealthy people in Luoyang City organized common people and people from various major clans to line the streets outside Luoyang City to welcome him. People from all walks of life crowded the streets, and they were shocked when they saw the army coming.

It's cheering loudly.

It was as grand as the liberation of a city that had been enslaved for hundreds of years!!

Huang Zhong has been fighting for many years and has visited many cities, but this is the first time he has met people who welcomed them so warmly like the people in Luoyang City.

This is not common sense.

The enthusiasm of the people of Luoyang City refreshed the outlook of Jingzhou soldiers.

Moreover, there were many people who scattered flowers in the sky when the Jingzhou army passed by!

In this day and age... flowers are really not something that can be obtained casually.

These days, it’s hard to grow food, so who has the time to plant a flower garden?

Can it be eaten as a meal?

Gan Ning followed Huang Zhong on horseback, looking around at this unprecedented grand occasion and feeling very emotional.

"It is said that the people in Luoyang City are the most powerful and wealthy people in the world. According to my original thinking, these people should have their eyes above their heads and look at people through their nostrils. They can't be more awesome. I thought we were entering

People in this city won’t even take a look at us. After all, they are all from the capital. I never thought we would be so hospitable! This is so welcoming!”

Huang Zhong chuckled and said: "If you think about it carefully, this is common sense. After all, if we don't come, the people who will come after a while will be the people from Xiliang... People from Liangzhou are famous for being willing to be guests.

We must eat all the people in these capitals. If it were you, who would you welcome?"

"Haha, General Huang is so old, how can he still like to joke? The older he gets, the more childlike he becomes."

"You bastard, who are you talking about your age!!"

Huang Zhong suddenly turned his head and looked at Gan Ning fiercely, making Gan Ning tremble in fright.

Gan Ning was so frightened by Huang Zhong's eyes that he didn't dare to say anything.

When Huang Zhong saw Gan Ning's expression, he suddenly seemed to relax.

He reached out and grabbed the long beard on his chin, raised it forward, and looked at it with his eyes.

Although there are not many, you can still see some white stubble.

Huang Zhong sighed, looked at Gan Ning with disappointment, and said, "Do you really think he is that young?"

Huang Zhong's eyes sent Gan Ning chills down his spine. He smiled dryly and comforted him softly: "Not old, not old! I was joking with the general. Who dares to say that the general is older? Lian Po is still seventy years old.

You can eat three bushels of rice, but you are only fifty-two, eighteen short of that! You are still young."

Huang Zhong nodded with satisfaction and regained his confident expression just now.

Gan Ning looked sideways at Huang Zhong, wondering in his heart.

I thought General Huang was a perfect man, but unexpectedly he also had some worries and concerns in his heart...

Huang Zhong sent troops to Luoyang, and at the same time, in order to resist the Liangzhou rebels, he took over Luoyang's city defense, arsenal and nearby warehouses.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Thirty thousand troops stationed in Luoyang, which was like an empty city. It would not take long to capture all the key points, two or three days.

That's enough.

Controlling Luoyang's city defense lifeline is equivalent to controlling the life and death lifeline of the imperial court. This makes the courtiers who are currently at a disadvantage in bargaining feel very suffocated and lonely.

Moreover, it was the courtiers who invited Liu Qi's army, which is irritating or not.

After Huang Zhong's army was stationed in Luoyang, the Xiliang rebels who were marching towards Sili immediately stopped after learning the news.

They seemed to feel quite fearful and hesitated for a while, not daring to move forward.

Just when the Duke of Manchao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, another heavyweight arrived in Luoyang.

No one expected this man to come to Luoyang, but he just came!

Chariot and Cavalry General Yuan Shu, accompanied by Jiangxia Captain Su Fei, rushed to Luoyang at high speed.

The court officials headed by Yang Biao, Shi Sunrui, Zhao Qi, Fu Wan, Dong Cheng, etc. were all shocked when they learned that Yuan Shu had arrived in Luoyang.

"He? Why did he come to Luoyang!" Everyone began to feel nervous.

You must know that Yuan Shu, as a cavalry general, used to be in charge of the Huben Army in Luoyang. Although he has been absent from the court for a long time, his prestige in the Luoyang court has not diminished over the years.

Especially when he has the aura of being the father-in-law of the Yuan family in Runan!

Of course, although most of the court officials did not understand its meaning, several veterans headed by Liu Yu and Yang Biao already understood it.

Yuan Shu had already formed an alliance with Liu Qi before Liu Qi fought against Yuan Shao, and after recently hearing that Sun Jian sent troops to capture Shouchun, Yuan Shu had no choice but to submit to Liu Qi and stationed troops in Jiangxia County, which was under the control of Wei Yan.
