Chapter 1291: Parting Ways
When the atmosphere just relaxed, an urgent report interrupted the banquet.
General Dian Wei of the Yellow Turban Army is coming!
The three brothers Zhang Jue are called the Lord of Heaven, the Lord of Earth, and the Lord of Man. Bo Cai, Zhang Mancheng, and Zhang Huozhu are called the God's Envoy. Zhang Huozhu and Guo Tu are called the Military Advisor's Envoy. Everyone has a title. But Dian Wei is the only one who doesn't have one.
He doesn't even have the title of the Great Commander or the Small Commander. He is just called General Dian Wei.
Many people are puzzled by this situation, including Lin Mu. Unfortunately, this is a private matter between Zhang Jue and Dian Wei, and Zhang Huozhu didn't find out.
However, the name of Dian Wei has gradually spread since Lu Zhi attacked Jizhou. This god general with no name stood up and pressed Lu Zhi in the Weijun Zhao area, breaking Lu Zhi's steady and steady situation.
Now, General Dian Wei, who is capable of resisting Lu Zhi's iron hoof, has gone north!
For a while, there was no sound in the banquet hall.
However, they were not frightened by Dian Wei's reputation, but they couldn't turn around for a while. They were questioning Zhou Tai one moment, and the next moment, they had to consider Dian Wei. It was too fast.
After that, Xiliang and others ignored Zhou Tai and started to target Dian Wei.
"How many soldiers did Dian Wei bring to the north to fight us? Where is he now?" Li Ru reacted and asked immediately.
"The army led by Dian Wei has at least 300,000 soldiers, and the specific number is not known for the time being. It has now reached 300 miles east of Xiaquyang City." The messenger responded immediately.
It's all here? So fast? ! ! Dong Zhuo and others' faces changed slightly.
If they had known they were coming earlier, they might have ambushed them on the nearby official road!
Zhou Tai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Dian Wei was coming. This situation also solved his dilemma. He was really afraid that Dong Zhuo would continue to entangle.
One solution to internal strife is to have an external enemy intervene and let the two sides share the same hatred.
Dian Wei is the external enemy!
Zhou Tai sat quietly, tasting the wine and occasionally eating some meat. He was not afraid that Dong Zhuo and his men would do something to the food.
Dong Zhuo and his men did not dare to kill him openly because they were too mixed up. If they did, once the news got out, Dong Zhuo would definitely be punished.
The storm was over!
"General Zhonglang, I am willing to serve as the general of the right wing of the charge, and we will set off to ambush Dian Wei's army on both sides of the official road!" At this time, Liu Bei, who heard that there was a battle, seemed to be injected with chicken blood, and took the initiative to stand up and ask for battle.
Damn... Liu Bei, this guy, has set his eyes on one of the two tiger talismans.
Liu Bei was also smart. He did not directly ask for the position of the general of the left wing. He asked for the general of the right wing. He actually knew that this position must be given to Hua Xiong, the first god of war in Xiliang.
However, what Liu Bei did not know was that he had gradually changed. As for how he changed, only Gongsun Zan on the side could feel it.
Gongsun Zan looked at the high-spirited Liu Bei with emotion, frowning, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Others also looked ugly when they heard Liu Bei's shameless request. You, if you didn't rely on your two brothers, our lord wouldn't have tolerated you. You even asked for the position of right-wing general directly. You are so shameless!
"Okay! Xuande, you will serve as the right-wing general first and fight against Dian Wei. This is the tiger talisman!" However, contrary to many people's expectations, Dong Zhuo actually agreed to Liu Bei's request.
Even Zhou Tai, an outsider, was surprised. Even if you want to seduce Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, you don't have to do this, right? !
"However, you have to keep General Guan Yu, because our army sent Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong and other fierce generals to Hejian County, but the central army has a commanding general." Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Ru and said faintly.
Obviously, Dong Zhuo's words were discussed with Li Ru.
Here it comes! Dong Zhuo made another move!
Zhou Tai began to watch the show. And Gongsun Zan next to him also noticed it at this moment. Dong Zhuo is interested in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
Guan Yu was about to take the initiative to talk to Dong Zhuo, but was stopped by Dong Zhuo, saying: "Don't worry, Yunchang, I just asked you to come to my side to lead the troops and serve as the general of the central army during the period of attacking Zhang Jue, but I didn't ask you to dissolve the brotherhood with Xuande."
Dong Zhuo's words directly blocked Guan Yu's rebuttal.
Good guy, Dong Zhuo was generous enough to give the position of the general of the central army to Guan Yu directly!
"Okay!" Liu Bei wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Dong Zhuo: "Because time is urgent, I won't talk nonsense, and make the appointment below."
"General Liu Bei will be the general of the right wing, and lead his troops with General Zhang Fei to test Dian Wei. Hua Xiong, the first god of war in Xiliang, will be the general of the left wing, connecting with General Liu Bei to block or eliminate Dian Wei." Dong Zhuo handed another tiger talisman to Hua Xiong.
Hua Xiong deserved the title of the general of the left wing. And Liu Bei, because of the special circumstances, no one refuted. Everything went smoothly.
Lin Mu was the general of the left wing of Huangfu Song, but he was stared at by countless guys with bad intentions.
"Yun Chang is the general of the Central Army, commanding his own troops and part of the Xiliang cavalry." The Central Army was under the command of Dong Zhuo, and had a seal, so no tiger talisman was needed.
Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were very smart. Liu Bei could accept Guan Yu, but if Zhang Fei was also pulled in as a temporary worker, he might have refused directly. However, he did not even want to be the general of the right wing.
The first bird to stick its head out gets shot, and it is difficult for you, a guy with no foundation, to rise to the top in one step! Zhou Tai looked at Liu Bei with a touch of regret.
However, Zhou Tai didn't know what he remembered, so he put his head next to Gongsun Zan's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Dong Zhuo may ask you to follow Liu Bei to fight Dian Wei later. If you don't want to, you can go out from the east gate, enter Julu County, and then go south to meet Lu Zhi, the general of the Central Army."
Gongsun Zan's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard this. Then he seemed to have figured it out, and his expression returned to normal.
Xiaquyang City is a fortress city. If you break through it, you can relax in Julu County, Zhao State, Wei County and other places. You can go south without passing through the city, and you can even take the wide official road.
However, I am afraid that the Yellow Turban Army in the occupied area will suddenly come to encircle and suppress.
After thinking for a while, Gongsun Zan nodded fiercely.
He felt very incompatible with Dong Zhuo, and Liu Bei's words were gradually drifting away. He actually wanted to go south to find Lu Zhi a long time ago.
Gongsun Zan glanced at Liu Bei and nodded to Zhou Tai. Gongsun Zan had a good impression of Lin Mu's subordinates.
In this way, under the strange eyes of many people, Liu Bei and Guan Yu opened a new chapter of encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turban Army.
After that, Dong Zhuo continued to make arrangements. There are many positions under the Zhonglang General. These are all real official positions!
The whole banquet hall was noisy again. When one person succeeds, everyone else will benefit!
"Because General Dian Wei is famous, we need to be promoted. Li Ru suggests that the Lord send other support to assist Liu Youyi." After Dong Zhuo arranged a lot of positions, Li Ru added faintly. After that, he looked at Zhou Tai and Gongsun Zan.
Since Liu Bei is the right wing general, it's okay to call him Liu Youyi.
Good guy! He is really a good guy, throwing away all the bad ones to fight against Dian Wei!
Gongsun Zan sighed slightly when he heard it. Zhou Tai guessed right.
"General Dong, I am going to send a letter to General Lu Zhi, and I have a mission, so I am not going to participate in this expedition." Gongsun Zan stood up resolutely, saluted to Dong Zhuo and said in a deep voice.
He didn't want to send a letter to Lu Zhi, it was just an excuse. Liu Bei was slightly startled when he heard it. He always felt like something was missing before. It turned out that he forgot to go to General Lu Zhi.
Just kidding, I don't know how many positions Lu Zhi has occupied have been occupied by the sons of prominent families. If he goes there now, he still has such a high status and authority? !
Now he is under Dong Zhuo, but he is the general of the right wing! When the credit is divided, he will definitely have more! This is the channel!
However, Liu Bei did not expose Gongsun Zan.
"After Xiaquyang City is opened, I can lead my troops directly south to meet with Lu Zhi's mentor." Gongsun Zan brought up Lu Zhi again, but changed the suffix to mentor!
This is the skill of speaking.
Sure enough, Dong Zhuo and others looked at Gongsun Zan after hearing this, and did not stop him from leaving. Gongsun Zan's troops are elite, and his Xiliang cavalry can't even compare.
In this way, in a strange atmosphere, the banquet ended.
And Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei, two brothers who came all the way from Youzhou, also parted ways.
