A fierce general appeared in the Eldest Princess 'residence.
This news spread throughout Luoyang City in just one night!
Whether it was Jian Shuo or the Shi Chang Shi,
It was still He Jin who was the head of the foreign ministers.
They were all worried!
This Luoyang was only so big. These two factions knew each other's people very well.
Once Yang Yu appeared, both the eunuchs and the ministers knew that something had changed!
Therefore, this group of people racked their brains and thought of taking Yang Yu under their command overnight.
However, Liu Hong was not stupid. That night, he left Yang Yu in the forbidden area and followed him at all times. He did not give the eunuch and He Jin the opportunity to threaten and bribe Yang Yu.
At dawn, Yang Yu waited outside the hall for the announcement.
In order to make his stance clear, Liu Hong said shortly after he entered,""I have already found the person who will lead the army. Today, I will make some preparations. Tomorrow, I will appoint this person as the general of the Yue Cavalry and lead 5,000 troops to reinforce Changshe!”
The battle at Changshe was related to the entire layout of the imperial court's crusade against the Yellow Turban Army.
After the defeat of Changshe, the capital would be shaken. Lu Zhi would retreat to Luoyang and the north would fall into the hands of the Yellow Turban Army.
If Changshe was relieved, Yingchuan would be safe, Si Li would be safe, Huangfu Song could send troops to Nanyang, and he could cooperate with Lu Zhi to destroy Zhang Jiao of Jizhou.
This was a battle that would determine the fate of the Great Han Empire, and it was of great significance!
Therefore, the person who led the army to the battlefield naturally attracted the attention of the people!
If you lose, you'll be beheaded,
However, if they won, they would be heroes who saved the country. Their contributions would be great!
The big shots in the court were either the eunuchs 'men or the Great General He Jin's men. They were either married to each other. Naturally, no one was willing to give such a great benefit to an unrelated person.
Thus, He Jin looked at Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao stood up and raised the board, saying,""Your Majesty, who are you referring to?"
Liu Hong hid his face under the crown and sneered,""Summon Yang Yu in!"
The ministers immediately looked at each other, Yang Yu? Never heard of it!
Many people looked at Grand Marshal Yang Ci.
Yang Ci was even more confused. The Yang family had been declining for generations, and there were only a handful of descendants in the family. He had never heard of anyone called Yang Yu!
At this moment, Yang Yu walked in. Everyone was stunned when they saw him!
Yuan Shao only took a glance and immediately laughed mockingly."Your Majesty, forgive me for being blunt, but this person is clearly dressed as a palace guard. How can such a person bear such a heavy responsibility?”
Situ Yuankui immediately chimed in,"Your Majesty, our dynasty respects Confucianism and values etiquette the most. If a mere guard becomes a general, I'm afraid we'll be laughed at by the world.”
"Your Majesty, how capable can a guard be?" Yang Ci asked. His Majesty must have been deceived by this person and mistook him for a villain!”
Liu Hong looked at Yang Yu and saw him standing in the middle of the aisle, allowing the officials on both sides to mock him and even the three dukes to suppress him. However, Yang Yu's expression did not change, and he stood as still as a rock. Therefore, Liu Hong liked him even more.
Liu Hong laughed." I'll ask you a question. If there's someone like Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Chu, who has the strength to carry a cauldron, is such a person qualified to lead an army into battle?"”
Everyone immediately felt that Liu Hong was digging a hole, so they hesitated and refused to speak.
Only Wang Yun stepped forward and said in a deep voice,"Your Majesty, if there really is such a person, then the person who is qualified to lead the army in the world is none other than him!”
"Shangshu Ling, how dare a mere civil official like you talk about military affairs?" He Jin immediately scolded coldly. Battling was not a contest of brute force. If one did not understand strategy, they would definitely lose every battle!”
Unexpectedly, Cai Yong stood up again,"Great General, you're wrong! If there was someone as brave as Xiang Yu, all the soldiers would be excited just by standing in the army! The morale of the army was high. How could the enemy not be defeated? Moreover, the Yellow Turban soldiers were all stupid, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. As long as there was a fierce general, they could be defeated in one battle!”
These words were reasonable and no one could refute them.
However, Cao Cao sneered,"It's a pity that there was only one Xiang Yu in the past 400 years!" If this person was as capable as Xiang Yu, he would have become famous in the palace long ago. Why would he wait until today?”
Liu Hong immediately laughed and said,"Bring the cauldron in!"”
" Your Majesty," He Jin immediately said," Xiang Yu carried the cauldron back then. It weighed at least 800 catties. If it was a small cauldron, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to convince the crowd even if he lifted it up."”
Liu Hong snorted coldly and ignored him.
After a while, twenty strong guards carried an incomparably huge cauldron in.
When everyone saw this, they were all stunned.
He Jin and the others looked at each other and smiled. They were all relieved.
Cai Yong was dumbstruck." This cauldron weighs 1300 jin. How can it be lifted?"”
Yuan Shao immediately jumped out." Your Majesty, if this guard can lift this cauldron, then I will definitely kneel and pay my respects to him when I see him in the future!"”
The cauldron landed on the ground, and the twenty soldiers wiped their sweat and left.
"Yuan Shao, you're from a prestigious family, so you must keep your word."”
"Of course!" Yuan Shao said proudly.”
Wang Yun seemed to have understood everything. At this moment, he had a sneer on his face.
"Yang Yu, don't embarrass me!" Liu Hong called out to Yang Yu, signaling him to start the performance.
Yang Yu glanced at Yuan Shao, and his originally indifferent face suddenly broke into a brilliant smile. He then hugged the cauldron that was said to weigh 1,300 jin with both hands!
Yang Yu shouted again. The cauldron was raised above his head and spun around steadily on the spot!
At this moment, the entire court was silent. Everyone's eyes were filled with shock!
