Chapter 9: The situation in Chang'an

When Niu Fu defeated Li Su and led his army to attack Gaoling, news was already received in Chang'an.

In Chang'an City, in Situ Wang Yun's mansion, an old man in his sixties, wrinkled face and hair and hair said with a ruthless look: "I really underestimated Niu Fu, the son-in-law,"

"The father-in-law doesn't have to worry, the son-in-law can lead the army to attack." After an arrogant voice sounded, a man with a golden crown on his head, a hundred flowers battle robe, and a Tang Dynasty armor, nine feet tall, with a dignified appearance, and a sharp and cold look in his eyes stood up.

"No, no, Fengxian, you can't go, Chang'an still needs you to guard it."

The two of them talked about were really the mastermind of Dong Zhuo, Situ Wang Yun, and Lu Bu, the world's number one god general who was canonized by Marquis of Wen.

"What will my father-in-law do?" Hearing this, Lu Bu frowned,

"I was about to report to the emperor and ordered Xu Rong and Hu Zhen to lead an army of 30,000 to defeat Niu Fu," Wang Yun said.

"Hu Zhen" Lu Bu was stunned and said with disdain: "This person relies on his family's strength and has his current status. He may not be able to take on the heavy responsibility."

"Hu Zhen is indeed not good, but there is Xu Rong. Xu Rong is not a real Liangzhou native. He is loyal to the court. With him, Bi Ke stabilizes the situation. Although Niu Fu won several games because he was not careful for a while, his rebellion was not tolerated by the world. As long as the elite troops are in place, he will definitely be able to succeed in one blow." Wang Yun said with confidence, or a little arrogantly.

Lu Bu frowned and glanced at Wang Yun. Since he killed Dong Zhuo and took power alone, he seemed to have changed a little, as if all the heroes in the world were at his hands. Especially a few days ago, Cai Yong just sighed for Dong Zhuo. Wang Yun was furious and severely criticized Cai Yong. He even took Cai Yong to the court for punishment without even being able to argue. Not to mention the old ministers in the court, he was a little surprised. After all, he was Cai Yong, one of the top famous scholars in history. Dong Zhuo was so cruel, and he was treated with courtesy. Wang Yun did directly put him in prison, and even the Grand Marshal Ma Riyan went to plead for mercy.

However, although he didn't believe in Hu Zhen, since he didn't need to lose his troops and generals, he was too lazy to care. On the contrary, if Hu Zhen could fight Niu Fu and both sides were injured, he could control the power of Chang'an alone.

"Okay! Since my father-in-law has decided, Bu will not say anything. If you have any needs, just order it," said Lu Bu.

"Haha, if you have Fengxian, you will be carefree for your father," Wang Yun said with a smile, just like Dong Zhuo had the same confidence and arrogance after he got Lu Bu.

....

Not long after, when Lu Bu returned to his mansion overnight, he saw a tiger-body and ape-armed, majestic and strong general with high sword eyebrows waiting here.

When he saw Lu Bu back, the general hurriedly greeted him, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, what's the situation? Did Situ ask us to send troops immediately?"

"No, Wen Yuan, the adoptive father planned to let Xu Rong and Hu Zhen lead his army to attack." Hearing this, Lu Bu sneered.

"What" When Zhang Liao heard this, he was not happy, but instead looked shocked and said, "Situ has been trying to cancel the Liangzhou soldiers for a while, and plans to kill all the civil and military officials in Liangzhou in various places. At this time, how can he let Xu Rong and Hu Zhen lead the army to attack?"

"Xu Rong is not from Liangzhou," said Lu Bu.

"Xu Rong is not, but Hu Zhen is yes," Zhang Liao said, "Lord, the court has just stabilized now, and the rebellion needs to be pacified as soon as possible with absolute strength. Once the time is extended, with Niu Fu's status in Xiliang and his military achievements in killing Li Su, it is estimated that the soldiers of Xiliang from all over the country will defect to each other. Why is Situ so short-sighted?"

"Wen Yuan" heard this, Lu Bu frowned. No matter what, Wang Yun was also his father-in-law.

"I'm sorry," Zhang Liao apologized and said with a fist: "Lord, but I'm really worried! Niu Fu has seemed to have changed a different person in recent months, with great military achievements. Have you forgotten that before Dong Zhuo died, he even planned to transfer him back to Chang'an. Now he killed Li Su again, and his momentum is in full swing. In Chang'an, no one except the lord, probably has the absolute certainty to suppress him."

"This..." Hearing this, Lu Bu's face also hesitated.

"General" At this moment, a maid walked in, and after saluting, she said, "Madam, I just put in a new song, please come over."

"Is that true?" Lu Bu immediately looked happy and stood up and said, "Wenyuan doesn't have to worry too much. Even if Hu Zhen is defeated, I will still kill him Niu Fu."

After saying that, he left with his maid with some expectations.

"Lord" Zhang Liao shouted, and looked at Lu Bu who had left in a hurry, and a trace of helplessness flashed across his face. It seemed that it was not only Wang Yun, but the lord also wanted to take advantage of the troubled waters. Taking this opportunity to suppress the Xiliang army again, but can things go so smoothly? If you are in the world, can you do it without the desire to tolerate and accept it?

...

On the next day, after the morning court, in a luxurious courtyard in Chang'an, a man with short beards and dressed in luxury hit the desk heavily and said coldly: "Niu Fu is now in a strong sense. Since they dare to murder the Grand Tutor, why don't they lead the army to attack, but instead ask us to attack? Are we the people of Xiliang really raised by our stepmothers?"

Hearing this, in the main position, a calm and extraordinary general frowned and said, "Wencai, you can't say that. After all, Wenhou still needs to be in charge of Chang'an. In addition, everyone is a citizen of the Han Dynasty, and there is nothing Xiliang, Guanzhong, and Bingzhou."

The two of them were former generals of Xiliang, Xu Rong and Hu Zhen. This morning, they reported to Wang Yun that they would send troops immediately to defeat Niu Fu.

"General, this is obviously Wang Yun's plan to use Niu Fu to harm our soldiers. In addition, during this period, Wang Yun has been constantly trying to find ways to cancel our Liangzhou soldiers. The soldiers below have long been extremely dissatisfied. Although Duan Wei surrendered in name, he has always been guarding Huayin and has been reluctant to enter Chang'an. At this time, let us lead our army to fight Niu Fu, that's not asking for death." Hu Zhen was unwilling to say that although Wang Yun used Xu Rong as the head commander, most of the Liangzhou soldiers were now the direct descendants he brought out to follow Dong Zhuo back then, and he felt sorry for him.

"Even if we are always tough, we have no way out. Since Wencai surrendered to the court, he can only be loyal to him to death," Xu Rong said seriously.

Hearing this, Hu Zhen's eyes moved, and snorted coldly, without saying anything more. Xu Rong seemed to be not from Xiliang after all, and no matter how much he lost, he would not feel sorry for him. What about him? I guess even if he won this time, he would lose a heavy loss and lose his due status.
