I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 668 I am not as good as Liu Jian
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is a wartime military aircraft station.

The Wartime Military Aircraft Department was a temporary organization specially established by Liu Jian. It was defined by Liu Jian as the central power authority in extraordinary times. It was used to handle emergency military affairs and assist the emperor in handling government affairs.

The Military Aircraft Department has overall military and political power and is now characterized as the highest state organ in power. According to Liu Jian's characterization of the Military Aircraft Department, the Military Aircraft Department should be completely under the direct control of the emperor. But now that the imperial court has established a prime minister, so The Military Aircraft Department is actually the Prime Minister's personal secretariat.

At the same time, in terms of power, the military aircraft is the highest state organ in power, but in form it is always in the status of a temporary agency.

At this moment, the few people standing in the military aircraft office are Liu Jian, Liu Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You, Liu Biao, Tian Feng, Ju Sue and Jia Xu.

In terms of seniority, these people are indeed somewhat lacking in the court.

Therefore, Liu Jian now established the Military Aircraft Department, allowing them to participate in the country's war as the main members of the Military Aircraft Department, and to enhance the qualifications of these people under his command.

"Has the Xiliang Army arrived in Fufeng County now?"

Jia Xu, who was responsible for providing intelligence, immediately said: "Reporting to the Prime Minister, the front of the Xiliang Army has arrived in Fufeng County and is currently stationed in Mei County in accordance with the imperial order."

Liu Jian asked: "Are they doing anything to disturb the people?"

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Logically speaking, there should be some, but not yet, because this former army is personally controlled by members of the Dong family. Under the constraints of Dong Zhuo, this army It’s very rare that we haven’t disturbed the people yet.”

Liu Jian was quite satisfied when he heard this.

"It seems that Dong Zhongying is still a sensible person. Although he is from Liangzhou, he sees things differently now. At least he understands what the people want."

When he said this, Liu Jian looked at Jia Xu again.

"Have the other officers and soldiers of the Xiliang Army set off?"

Jia Xu really investigated everything clearly.

"The Xiliang armies headed by Hu Zhen have successively set off eastward from Ji County in Liangzhou. Although they set off later than Dong Zhuo's army, they thought they would arrive in Fufeng County soon. The Prime Minister asked these people to Like Dong Zhuo's army, are they also stationed in Mei County?"

Liu Jian shook his head and said: "The soldiers led by the other Xiliang troops are different from the army led by Dong Zhuo. In the end, this army led by Dong Zhuo can be completely used by me... But the other Xiliang troops The general's thoughts are not on surrendering to the imperial court at the moment! It is not believable at the moment."

When he said this, Liu Jian suddenly stopped talking. He just smiled and looked at the people around him: "Everyone, please express your opinions. If you have any ideas, feel free to speak freely."

Everyone present said nothing, just waiting for Liu Yu to express his opinion first.

After all, among these people, apart from Liu Jian, Liu Yu should have the most noble status.

Moreover, after the Chang'an abolition incident, Liu Yu seemed to have become the No. 1 minister in the central government after Liu Jian.

However, everyone was silent at this moment, waiting for Liu Yu to speak, not because of Liu Yu's high military attainments, but just out of respect for him.

Liu Yu was also a relatively self-aware person. He looked at the people on the side with a smile and said, "If you have any opinions, just say them! I am not good at military formations, so I just listen to your opinions. , don’t show your shame today.”

Since Liu Yu had said this, the others had no scruples and immediately began to speak freely.

The first person to speak was Tian Feng.

"Prime Minister! Tian thinks that Hu Zhen and other troops should be stationed in Wugong! This way, they can hide their eyes and ears. Compared with Mei County, the journey from Wugong to Chang'an is flatter and smoother. If the Xiliang army has its own intentions, If you use martial arts to attack Chang'an... you can do it in the morning and in the evening!"

"In this way, the generals of the Xiliang Army headed by Hu Zhen will not think that we are deliberately plotting against them. This will also allow them to take off their guard and reveal their true colors."

"Then we can formulate strategies based on actual facts."

Liu Jian listened to Tian Feng's words and said, "Mr. Yuan Hao is indeed very scheming. What other opinions do you have?"

The next person to speak was Jushou.

"Prime Minister, I think what Yuan Hao said is true, but I have one more thing to say. According to me, although the place where we garrison the Xiliang Army is the top priority, the key is to think about it. Find a way to cut off the Xiliang army’s retreat!”

"After all, the Xiliang army has a large number of people. If some of them escape and return to Liangzhou, it will definitely hinder the prime minister's great cause, so be careful."

Liu Jian agreed: "Where do you think we should block Liangzhou's return route?"

Jushou said very seriously: "Prime Minister, according to our relationship, we should send people to Chencang now to block the Liangzhou army's retreat."

"Chencang and even the throat are easy to defend but difficult to attack, and they can block the return route on three sides. They are must-win areas for military strategists."

Liu Jian nodded with satisfaction.

"Sir's idea coincides with mine. In fact, before Dong Zhuo's army returned with his troops, I had already asked Xu Huang and Zhang Yan to lead an elite army to lurk in the mountains of Qinchuan, waiting for the Xiliang army. After everyone has crossed the border, we will quietly attack Chencang and capture the choke point."

"With Chencang in hand, the Xiliang army has no way back. No matter whether they can win this war, they will ultimately be losers."

When Jushou heard what Liu Jian said, he immediately felt relieved and felt very emotional.

"The Prime Minister is indeed far-sighted. It turns out that he has already made preparations in advance. Something is going on."

Liu Jian said: "Sir, why do you say that? Why are you so troubled? You are sharing my worries. If you have any ideas, please tell me in time. It doesn't matter even if it is repeated. Out of a hundred things, even if I Unexpectedly, but you reminded me, it will be a huge help to our great cause!"

"We, the upper class, need to know that one sentence can affect the lives of tens of millions of people."

When everyone heard the words, they nodded in agreement.

"As for the formation of troops this time, where should all the troops be stationed? You can speak freely without any scruples."

So, under Liu Jian's supervision, everyone began to speak freely and expressed their opinions to Liu Jian.

Everyone pointed back and forth on the map, analyzing the battlefield situation and possible processes... Everyone expressed their opinions without any scruples.

In the end, after discussions with the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department, multiple formation plans and strategies for using troops were finally listed.

Almost all possible accidents are prevented.

Five days later, after Dong Zhuo settled his troops in Mei County, he arrived in Chang'an under the protection of Hua Xiong.

Time passed, and Dong Zhuo felt an obvious tingling feeling in his heart when he returned to Chang'an again.

I think back then, when he just left Chang'an, he was the prime minister with one man under his command and more than ten thousand people. He had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command and was determined to pacify Xiliang. He was so high-spirited that no one could match him.

However, today, when he comes back again, he no longer has the same taste as before, and his soldiers are likely to fall apart.

It feels frustrating no matter how much I think about having to rely on others for support.

When Dong Zhuo returned to Chang'an this time, he did not bring many people with him.

He only led the general Hua Xiong, and he also had three hundred flying bear troops as personal guards.

From Dong Zhuo's point of view, it would be useless for him to come back with too many troops on this occasion. If he brought too many troops, Liu Jian would not be able to let him come to Chang'an. They must have less than a thousand troops.

But even if he brought a thousand people, if Liu Jian really wanted to harm him, he would only come with a thousand people and die with a thousand people.

Rather than letting Liu Jian look down on him because of such a thing, it would be better to bring [-] people back.

Also let Liu Deran see Dong Zhuo's ambition.

Moreover, Dong Zhuo also estimated that Liu Jian would not be able to harm him.

The generals of the Xiliang army could not find a suitable reason to rebel. If Liu Jian was really killed by Dong Zhuo, they would really have no scruples, and it would even lead to a great increase in the morale of the other army.

Dong Zhuo felt that with Liu Jian's wisdom, he would never do such a stupid thing.

……

Seeing that they were about to arrive in Chang'an, Dong Zhuo was sighing when he suddenly saw a Biao army coming in front.

The team of soldiers and horses were fully armed, and the general at the head was covered in fine iron armor. His face is covered with beards and his appearance is extremely majestic.

"Is this Mr. Dong coming?" Dong Zhuo didn't recognize the general in front of him, but Hua Xiong did.

He cautiously said to Dong Zhuo: "Prime Minister, this person is Yan Liang, the general of Hebei."

Dong Zhuo nodded suddenly when he heard this.

I have heard of this man's name a long time ago, and when I saw him today, he was indeed majestic.

He ordered the driver to pull his carriage forward.

Dong Zhuo straightened up on the chariot, and then shouted to Yan Liang: "I am Dong Zhuo, what advice does this general have?"

When Yan Liang saw Dong Zhuo standing up, he hurriedly raised his hands to him and said, "The last general, Yan Liang, came here to greet Mr. Dong on the orders of the Prime Minister."

When he said this, Yan Liang waved his hand and said loudly to the soldiers behind him: "Make a way for Mr. Dong.

I saw the elite soldiers from Hebei who had followed Yan Liang dispersed to both sides of the road, making way for a spacious road. At the same time, they held the weapons in their hands with their left and right hands and placed them on their chests, straightening their spines. Holding your head high and your chest high is a tribute to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but sigh when he saw the situation in front of him.

He looked at Yan Liang and said, "But your prime minister arranged it?"

Yan Liang said: "The Prime Minister said that Duke Dong was a hero of the Han Dynasty. Although he did not defeat the enemy this time, it also greatly promoted the power of the Han Dynasty. We must replace it with courtesy."

"Mr. Dong, please!!"

These words made Dong Zhuo's heart surge, and he felt as if he had met a confidant.

Liu Deran, he is indeed Liu Deran!
Sure enough, he is discerning.

He really does have a big heart.

Then Dong Zhuo ordered the driver: "Drive straight ahead."

So Dong Zhuo's three hundred flying bear troops supported Dong Zhuo's carriage and walked majestically towards the road opened for them by Yan Liang's army, which looked like a triumphant army.

Along the way, Dong Zhuo felt very proud.

Hua Xiong followed Dong Zhuo and said, "Prime Minister, Liu Jian is so polite to Prime Minister. It seems that he still respects Prime Minister very much."

Hearing this, Dong Zhuo's face became even more proud.

However, he suddenly remembered something and immediately told Hua Xiong: "Now that you have come to Chang'an, you can no longer call me Prime Minister. When you come back to Liu Jian, you must also call me Prime Minister." .”

After hearing this, Hua Xiong was somewhat reluctant, but under Dong Zhuo's meaningful gaze, he still agreed.

"Follow the Lord's orders!"

Dong Zhuo nodded with satisfaction and felt relieved.

After Dong Zhuo's army passed by Yan Liang's army, Yan Liang immediately accompanied Dong Zhuo in person and drove eastwards for more than thirty miles. At this time, they had basically entered the territory under Chang'an's jurisdiction.

He had vaguely seen the city of Chang'an City, but saw another group of elite cavalry galloping towards Dong Zhuo.

When Dong Zhuo saw the cavalry, he immediately became energetic. He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, looking up and down at the cavalry.

But I saw that the horses ridden by these cavalry were all of high quality, extremely majestic, and the colors were arranged very neatly, some were brown, some were white, some were black...

The black, white and brown war horses are all arranged in teams according to their colors, which is very beautiful.

The cavalry on horseback are also fully armed, wearing elite armor, holding Changshuo in hand, and are well-equipped.

There are more than [-] cavalrymen in total.

Just these armors, these war horses, and these Changshuo are enough to show Hebei's current iron-smelting power.

Most of the Xiliang Army are people who know how to fight horses. They just took a glance at the horses in front of them and suddenly discovered that the quality of these horses and the quality of the knights on the horses were not inferior to the cavalry of their Xiliang Army.

Especially the advantages in equipment are extremely obvious. Looking at the entire Han Dynasty, there is no cavalry with such good equipment.

Liu Jian used this cavalry to show Dong Zhuo his powerful strength.

Just when Dong Zhuo was looking at these cavalry with envy and envy, he saw these cavalry suddenly lined up in a row and formed a formation.

They raised the instruments in their hands together and shouted loudly:
"Dong Gong is mighty!"

"Dong Gong is mighty!"

Then I saw another big man with a majestic figure coming into the cavalry team.

"The last general Gongsun Zan, by order of the Prime Minister, is here to welcome Duke Dong into Chang'an City. Duke Dong, please!"

Gongsun Zan's reputation has also been very popular in the Northland in recent years. He had previously attacked Wuhuan and Xianbei in Youzhou. Although his reputation is not as good as Guan Yu's, he can be regarded as the second most powerful general in Youzhou.

Later, he went to Bingzhou to help Guo Jia and made many military exploits against the local Huns.

It's a pity that his reputation in Bingzhou is not as big as that of Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, and at most he is ranked third in Bingzhou.

However, even though he has never been ranked first, Gongsun Zan's reputation is still very loud, especially when he was in Bingzhou, he also formed a White Horse Yijun army, although this army had some conflicts with Zhao Yun's army , but still does not conceal its edge.

Gongsun Zan had been in the north for many years and had a great reputation. Even Dong Zhuo had heard of his reputation.

Especially Dong Zhuo also knew that this person was Liu Jian's senior brother.

"I didn't expect that Liu Deran actually sent this person to pick me up. It seems that he really respects me."

Seeing Liu Jian sending Gongsun Zan and this majestic cavalry to greet him, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, he was also deeply shocked by the equipment and quality of Liu Jian's cavalry.

"It seems that I am really not as good as Liu Deran."

Dong Zhuo was just talking to himself, so Gongsun Zan naturally couldn't hear it.

"Dong Gong, please follow me into the city!"

"Invite Mr. Dong to enter the city!"

All the cavalrymen shouted loudly.

Seeing the majesty of the cavalry led by Gongsun Zan, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but feel arrogant in his heart.

He ordered Hua Xiong: "Let my flying bear army enter the city like a marching army."

"Don't let the spirit of our Liangzhou heroes fall."

When Hua Xiong heard this, he seemed a little hesitant.

"Xiang Guo, I'm afraid your body is a little overwhelmed, right?"

Dong Zhuo couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"I have been in the world for many years, what does this little thing mean?"

"Hurry into the city!"

"promise!"
