Chapter 288: Be Careful

"Hahaha..." Liu Bian laughed, "At a young age, he can hide needles in the cotton. With such a demeanor, he will become a great man in the future. Tell me, come from Luoyang where Yimin lives to Chang'an where the emperor lives. What do you want me to do?"

Lu Xun fell to the ground: "The common people cried and asked His Majesty to send troops to Lujiang to relieve the soldiers and civilians of Lujiang from the upside down, and cut off the false thoughts of Yuan's rebellious ministers."

Liu Bian pondered for a moment: "Weapons are the major affairs of the country, and should not be careless. Lujiang's soldiers and people, and my people, are loyal to the country, and should not give up. Lu Xun, let me think about this matter carefully, how about it?"

Lu Xun kowtowed repeatedly, sobbing indecent voices, begging: "Your Majesty wandered north of the desert, like the wind swept the broken clouds, how can he lift the siege of Lujiang but he has been slow to move? Rescue soldiers are like putting out fires. Once the city is broken, Lujiang changes hands, and the two Yuans are connected, what can the world be? Tao Qian was defeated in Pengcheng, Xuzhou was lost, and the gentry was disgraced. If Lujiang was not protected, Yangzhou would be separated from the river again, and the hearts of Shandong people would be really degraded and out of control."

Liu Bian said nothing. He was not worried about the two Yuan joining forces because he knew that the two Yuan could not join forces. The reason why he dared to make a ten-year agreement with Xun Yu was that he knew that these people could not really cooperate. Just like the six countries back then, their defenses between each other were far greater than their vigilance against Qin. During the past six months of his expedition to the north of Mo, the people of Shandong had been fighting in internal struggles, which also proved his conjecture.

However, Xun Yu sent Xi Zhicai to Xuanminghai to prepare to massacre his dragon, which made him very annoyed. The ten-year agreement did not have such content. If Xun Yu did this, he would be a little weak if he did not react at all. Liu Xie's response to Pengcheng made him dissatisfied. Taking advantage of Lu Xun's opportunity to ask for help, he needed to show his strength so that Xun Yu could restrain himself in the future and no longer try to exploit such loopholes.

He summoned Xu Huang.

"You go to Zhuyuan Pass and bring Sun Ce to me, or..." Liu Bian paused and said lightly: "Kill."

...

Lu Yu hurriedly climbed up the stairs and came to Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu. Liu Xie was sitting opposite Chen Qun, listening to Chen Qun telling the key points of the officials' appreciation, and seeing Lu Yu come in, he couldn't help but laugh: "What's the matter? Can you be so anxious, wouldn't you let the long article make you laugh?"

Chen Qun also smiled: "Mr. Lu is afraid that he has encountered an urgent matter and even forgot about etiquette."

Lu Yu glanced at Chen Qun and walked straight to Liu Xie. He handed a urgent report to Liu Xie and whispered: "Your Highness, 600 miles of Chang'an are urgent."

Liu Xie was stunned, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately. The originally relaxed body subconsciously thrust and respectfully saluted the urgent report. Although Lu Yu's voice was small, it was enough for Chen Qun to hear it. Chen Qun couldn't help but froze, and then took a step back to avoid the banquet and salute.

Of course, the news from Chang'an was sent by the emperor, and the use of 600 miles to rush forward was enough to show that the matter was very urgent. As for Chen Qun's opinion, even when the emperor rushed to Guanzhong and forced arriving in Han Sui and Ma Teng, he had never used 600 miles to rush forward.

Chen Qun was nervous, and Liu Xie was even more nervous. He wanted to make himself look calm, but his heart was jumping up uncontrollably. Six hundred miles rushed. Could it be that the emperor had an accident? Oh, it can't be like this. What should I do if my brother dies at this moment? I haven't had time to cultivate my own foundation yet.

For a moment, Liu Xie thought a lot, and looked at the six hundred miles in front of him, his scalp felt a little numb.

"Your Highness..." Lu Yu whispered: "Let's take a look."

Liu Xie woke up from his dream, said oh, quickly picked up the urgent item, after verifying the sealing mud, opened it and looked carefully. He looked at him, his frown loosened, showing a look of relief, and then slowly frowned again, quite puzzled. He glanced at Chen Qun and said lightly: "Your Majesty has transferred Lu Sikong to the governor of Liangzhou and sent General Hengye Xu Huang to replace the defense of Luyuan Pass. Xu Huang is already on the road. According to the schedule, it should be here in another five or six days."

Chen Qun raised his eyebrows and turned his eyes: "Since Lu Si is idle as the governor of Liangzhou, of course someone will take over the defense of Lu Yuan Pass. General Hengye Xu Huang has made many military achievements and has gained the trust of His Majesty. It is not wrong to take over the defense of Lu Yuan Pass. But, does this matter... need to be expedited for 600 miles?"

Liu Xie didn't say anything and looked at Chen Qun quietly. This was exactly what he was confused about. Before Lu Zhi left Luoyang, he came to say goodbye to him. They all knew that no matter whether Lu Zhi could protect the Ma family in the end, Lu Zhi, the Sikong, would definitely not be able to do it. It was expected that Lu Zhi needed a new general at Lu Yuan Pass. Liu Xie once wanted to arrange a candidate himself, but after careful consideration, he gave up this plan and decided to wait for news from Chang'an. Liu Xie kept in touch with the emperor, knew Xu Huang's record, and knew that the emperor had a high evaluation of him, almost equivalent to Zhang Liao. It would be a matter of time before Xu Huang was reused. It is normal to take over Lu Zhi in charge of the defense of Lu Yuan Pass now.

But why should I use 600 miles to speed up this matter? The emperor would never think that there was no general in charge of Lu Zhi's time to leave, right? If this is the case, the emperor not only was he worried about Liu Xie, but also underestimated Huangfu Song's ability. Obviously, the emperor would not underestimate his teacher, so there was only one possibility, he was worried that Liu Xie would make his own decisions.

Liu Xie hesitated for a long time, his face was gloomy and gloomy. Chen Qun was helpless when he saw him. He couldn't figure it out. The relationship between the two brothers was a bit strange. He didn't even know Liu Xie's idea, let alone Liu Bian, who had never met.

Seeing Chen Qun's silence, Lu Yu reminded: "Your Highness, Xu Huang has been fighting with His Majesty for a long time. He knows that rescuing soldiers is like putting out fires. After receiving the imperial edict, he will definitely go day and night. Will Your Highness send people to wait outside the city in advance to delay the military aircraft?"

Liu Xie woke up and nodded repeatedly.

...

Two days later, Liu Xie met Xu Huang and fifty personal guards in the west of the city.

In addition to Xu Huang, there are also Ma Chao and fifty Komgulangs, who are ordered to protect Xu Huang's safety.

Seeing these more than a hundred cavalry, Liu Xie was even more anxious. Xu Huang was here to take over the defense of the Luyuan Pass or do other things, so why did he bring so few people? Generals usually take their subordinates with them when they move to defend. Xu Huang's Tomahawk Battalion has 2,000 elite soldiers and 500 personal guards alone. He should bring them all. In addition to the few people, Xu Huang's speed was too fast. It took him less than four days to travel 900 miles from Chang'an to Luoyang. He had to walk two or three hundred miles a day, which was far beyond the speed of daily marching, but it was very consistent with his lightweight and simple travel.

Could it be that he only brought these people to marches quickly?

What made Liu Xie even more uneasy was that the appearance of Ma Chao and fifty Kouweilang was also very strange. Kouweilang was the elite around the emperor, and there were many masters of enlightenment. It seemed unreasonable to use them to protect Xu Huang. They should have other tasks. So, what tasks are they?

Liu Xie felt like fifteen buckets of water fetching water in his heart, but his face was silent, waiting quietly for Xu Huang and others to come to him.

"Stop!" Xu Huang raised his hand, and more than a hundred galloping knights slowed down at the same time, and stopped a hundred steps away from Liu Xie, as neatly as one. Xu Huang turned over and dismounted, strode to Liu Xie, bowed and bowed.

Liu Xie helped Xu Huang up and smiled gently: "The general is here, and there is no accident at Zhuyuan Pass. However, the general only has one hundred cavalry, isn't it too few? I will allocate two thousand cavalry for you."

Xu Huang shook his head: "Thank you for your care. I dare not accept it. I followed Your Majesty's edict and came to you at night, not only to take over the defense of Zhuyuan Pass, but also to understand the siege of Lujiang. As there are too many people, it will affect your actions."

"The siege of Lujiang?" Liu Xie was stunned and couldn't react. He had known about the war in Lujiang for a long time, but Lujiang was in Yangzhou, and there were two counties between Luoyang and Luoyang. In the ten-year agreement between the emperor and Xun You, the imperial army would not leave the capital of Luoyang, and it was even more impossible to enter Yingchuan and Runan. Did the emperor decide to break his promise and fight with Shandong in advance? But I didn't receive any news. Did the emperor decide to remove my power?

Liu Xie's face turned a little pale, but he didn't dare to ask too much. After all, the guess in his heart was just a guess. Since the emperor did not have a clear edict, he even asked Xu Huang, and he thought that Xu Huang would not give him an answer.

"How does the general plan to break the siege of Lujiang?" Chen Qun was also puzzled and couldn't help but interject.

Xu Huang glanced at Chen Qun and smiled faintly: "It's very simple, rush to Lujiang to capture Sun Ce and Zhou Yu alive."

Chen Qun was stunned. He looked at Xu Huang, then looked at the one hundred cavalry that had stopped Yue Zhi in the distance, and closed his mouth again.

Liu Xie was also surprised, but he thought more than Chen Qun. Liu Bian sent Xu Huang to lift the siege of Lujiang, and it was impossible for Xu Huang to die. He must be sure. Could it be that Xu Huang's strength has reached this point and he can lift the siege of Lujiang with one hundred cavalry?

...

Xu Huang did not enter the city, so he said goodbye to Liu Xie, passed around the city, and headed straight for Zhuyuan Pass.

"Meng Qi, I'm sorry, you can go to the Taifu's camp and report our actions to him."

Ma Chao responded: "Now, then go to Zhuyuan Pass to meet with the general?"

"Well, I'll wait for you in Luyuan Pass for one day." Xu Huang smiled and said, "Is it too late?"

Ma Chao laughed: "Don't worry, General, as long as the Taifu is not stuck, it's enough for half a day."

Xu Huang smiled slightly: "Meng Qi is worthy of being Fei Lianming's young hero. He has made rapid progress these days and only needs one real battle."

Ma Chao blushed and laughed twice, but he felt happy in his heart. Xu Huang was right. Although he had fought several fierce battles with Zhang Liao, those were not real battles, and Zhang Liao did not do his best. The situation is different now. He has also practiced guidance techniques, and his progress is good. Now he is waiting to use a real battle to test his strength. However, he has nothing to be proud of in front of Xu Huang. Xu Huang has never had guidance techniques, but he still breaks the realm on the battlefield, and his realm is no less than that of Lu Bu, Guan Yu and others, which is a legend.

The emperor asked him to go to war with a legend like Xu Huang, which was a great gift for him. (To be continued, please search Piao Tianwen, the novel is better and faster!
