Three days had passed.
Zong Yuan, Cao Cao, and Dian Wei were all gathered together.
The clan member said respectfully," Son, we've lost Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao in Quyang City. Someone saw them carrying a large amount of rations towards Guangzong. They should have entered the city through the north gate!"”
"A large number of Yellow Turban bandits have been detected coming from Youzhou, but they are being held back by the White Horse General Gongsun Zan. However, they will arrive at Julu in a few days, so we have to send people to intercept them!”Cao Cao said solemnly.
"Meng De, the Youzhou scouts have returned so soon?" Liu Xian frowned.”
"Yes, it's the scout that General Bei Zhonglang sent out before he was imprisoned.”Cao Cao explained.
"Dong Zhuo!"
Killing intent rose in Liu Xian's heart.
If he hadn't come early, the Han army would have turned around in Dong Zhuo's hands, and Huangfu Song would have been sent to the north to quell the rebellion. No one knew how many people would have perished in the flames of war.
"Report!"
"Beizhong General Lu Zhi and Cheng Yu have returned with the Son of Heaven's Resurrection Sword!”Suddenly, a long shout came from outside the tent.
The corners of Liu Xian's mouth curled up into a faint smile as he said,""Haha, you're back. Zhong De really didn't disappoint, he can shoulder the heavy responsibility!”
"That still requires Zi Zheng to make a decision!" Cao Cao said in admiration.
"Whoosh!"
The curtain of the commander's tent was lifted, and an old man with a haggard face and white hair, with a few stalks of grass sticking out of his hair, stepped into the tent. Behind him were Cheng Yu and Li Qing.
"Sir!" Liu Xian bowed slightly.
He came from a later generation and had a proud heart. However, he still gave the greatest respect to this last famous general of the Great Han Dynasty. Throughout Lu Zhi's life, he had experienced many ups and downs and was full of twists and turns, but he still did his best for the Great Han Dynasty.
"Zi Zheng!"
Lu Zhi's eyes reddened and he smiled lightly." I'll have to trouble Zizheng to take charge of the overall situation this time. Otherwise, the good situation in the Jizhou battlefield will be ruined!"”
"It's not too late to make up for it. I can use Dong Zhuo to trap Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang in Guangzong City!”Liu Xian said with a faint smile.
"You've grown up!"
Lu Zhi patted Liu Xian's shoulder.
"Mister, please take a seat and preside over the Jizhou battle!”Liu Xian said in a deep voice.
"Good!"
Lu Zhi nodded slightly and sat on the main seat.
Cheng Yu said respectfully," My lord, I went to Luoyang to see King Jibei. The emperor ordered me to bring the Zhongxing Sword over. I will take the military order to eliminate the main force of the Yellow Turban army before the end of the year on behalf of my lord. If it fails, King Jibei's line will be stripped of their titles. If it succeeds, he will give you a grand gift!"”
"That's enough. Thank you for your hard work, sir!”Liu Xian said in a deep voice.
Cheng Yu handed the Zhongxing Sword to Liu Xian and said respectfully,"I wouldn't dare. This is the Son of Heaven's Resurrection Sword. It once killed Zuo Feng of the Little Yellow Sect in the imperial court. Moreover, Yuan Kui was promoted to the position of Grand Tutor, and the two sons of the Yuan family were transferred out of the General's Estate!”
"En, we'll talk about this after we reach Luoyang. The war is more important!”Liu Xian hung the Zhongxing Sword at his waist.
At this moment.
Cao Cao had already handed over the commander's seal and told Lu Zhi about the current situation.
Lu Zhi rubbed the commander's seal with his palm and said in a deep voice,""Fortunately, Zizheng came, so Dong Zhuo didn't cause a big disaster. However, it's really unwilling to let Guangzong Yellow Turban resist for a few more months!”
"Right now, we need to eliminate the Yellow Turban Army in Quyang City and restrain Zhang Niujiao of Youzhou. Otherwise, a pincer attack from both inside and outside will definitely cause a disaster!”Cao Cao walked to the map and pointed at the Changshan Kingdom.
Lu Zhi nodded." Zhang Niujiao's army started from Bingzhou and Youzhou. They fought with the army through the Taihang Mountains. Changshan is an important place. What do you think, Zizheng?"”
"I will lead the Bei Wei Army to Changshan and send 10,000 troops to Meng De to clear out the Yellow Turban Army in Quyang City. The main force of the Great Han Army will continue to besiege Guangzong!”Liu Xian said in a deep voice.
"I heard from Cheng Yu that your Bei Wei Army only has 3,000 soldiers!" Lu Zhi frowned.”
"That's enough, but we need to borrow the archers from the Sound Shooting Camp. Besides, Gongsun Zan is chasing Zhang Niujiao!”Liu Xian said with a faint smile.
Lu Zhi nodded and said," Clan member, bring 3,000 bows and 60,000 arrows to Zizheng. Then, prepare enough rations for a month. If you can't get in touch with Zhang Niujiao within a month, immediately lead the army back to Julu!"”
Liu Xian said in a deep voice," The situation is urgent. We will head to Chang Mountain in two hours. Li Qing, you will hand over the crossbows and arrows to the clan members!"”
"Here!" Clan member and Li Qing replied at the same time.
"Sir!"
"Zi Zheng met a person in Yingchuan. His name is Liu Bei and his name is Liu Bei. He is from Zhuo County of Youzhou.”Liu Xian asked.
"Liu Bei?"
Lu Zhi frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes as he said,"This person and Bo Gui entered my tutelage at the same time. However, Bo Gui is studious and has achieved great success in military strategy and literature. Forget about Liu Bei. He led his army from Youzhou to Yingchuan.”
"I heard that he is the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan!”Liu Xian asked.
Lu Zhi shook his head and smiled bitterly." I took him in because his mother begged him outside the door for three days and three nights on a snowy day with two pairs of straw sandals. At that time, I didn't hear him say that he was the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan!"”
"Young Master, King Jing of Zhongshan does have a bloodline in Zhuo County. The current head of the family is Liu Deran!”Li Qing said respectfully.
"De Ran?"
Lu Zhi was slightly taken aback." De Ran is really the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. His father, Liu Yuanqi, often helps ordinary people. He is a good county magistrate. Liu Bei and De Ran's family are not far away, but Liu Bei doesn't seem to be very close to him!”
"Understood!" Liu Xian nodded.
It was too vague to say anything now. As long as he went to Luoyang's Zong Zheng Residence to investigate, everything would be clear.
As long as Liu Bei was really a relative of the Han clan, then his name would definitely be recorded in the clan register. This was Zong Zheng's mission, to record the situation of the clan's descendants.
