Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 603 There Are So Many Good Generals, It’s So Troubling
Compared with the "Book of Heaven", the matter of Yuan Shu's usurpation and proclaiming himself emperor was much more explosive, and it soon spread to all parts of the world like a scourge.Many princes were filled with righteous indignation and wrote letters asking the Han Dynasty to send troops to conquer.However, just like things always have two sides, Yuan Shu's proclaiming himself emperor also greatly boosted the ambitions of those who harbored evil intentions.

Just five days after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Liu Xie got another news that a group of horse thieves entrenched in the Hehuang area, a guy named Song Jian, had gathered dozens of troops from Qiangdi, big and small, and died in Yuhan. The self-proclaimed king of Ping Han has become independent!

Listen, King Ping Han!
This is a blatant challenge to the Han Dynasty.

However, it's not surprising when you think about it. When Liu Xie's cheap father Liu Hong was in power, there had long been Kuaiji Xu Sheng who claimed to be the King of Yue, and Yuyang Zhangju who claimed to be the Son of Heaven.Although Brother Zhang Jiao did not proclaim himself king or emperor, he claimed that "the heaven is dead", which clearly stated that he wanted to overthrow the great man; and the Yizhou yellow scarf horse minister who attacked and killed the governor also claimed to be the son of heaven.

Before, even these ignorant people dared to pretend to be the emperor, which shows that the great man has collapsed to the point of being out of control.But now, with the great encouragement of Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor, there is only a brain-dead Song Jian, and even Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, and Liu Yan, who have already shown signs, dare not show their heads.As a result, Liu Xie was extremely satisfied with his rule.

After all, Song Jian proclaimed himself emperor in the Hehuang area, which has something to do with Liu Xie.It's Han Sui's territory now!Song Jian also bullied Han Sui and was beaten up by the Han Dynasty all these years, so he became a fool when his brain got hot.After Han Sui reacted, this Song Jian might not be alive soon.

Ping Han Wang, why not Ping Xi Wang?Why don't you find a daughter-in-law named Chen Yuanyuan?Why don't you go to heaven?
It's a pity that the ministers in the front hall of Weiyang Palace are about to blow up just because of this trivial matter.Those suffocated scholar-bureaucrats seemed to have finally found their opportunity to talk eloquently, chasing after Liu Xie, clamoring one by one to flatten the Sanssouci Palace and capture Yuan Shu alive.

When encountering this kind of thing before, Liu Xie just spread his hands and said to these scholar-bureaucrats in embarrassment: "We want to fight, I don't have any money on hand, why don't you donate some?"

At that time, this sentence could make the scholar-bureaucrats roll their eyes and retreat in embarrassment one by one.But this time it really won't work, these scholar-bureaucrats are pedantic, but their blood is not cold, and they are the children of Confucianism, what they hate the most is usurping the throne and conspiracy.As soon as Liu Xie said to donate money, people would like to sell their wives and children. What do you want Liu Xie to do?

Therefore, when Liu Xie convened a military meeting, he had to let Leng Shouguang watch the door and not say anything, just like the underground party.I have to find some deserted and dilapidated small halls in Weiyang Palace, which are as mysterious as they are going to do some shady things.

Fortunately, the people participating in the military discussion today are all Liu Xie's confidantes.They more or less knew what it was about Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor. Even if they didn't know, they could tell that Yuan Shu was lighting a lantern in the toilet this time, looking for death.These guys relaxed their muscles and talked and laughed happily, and no one cared.More than a dozen people got together, and it was only a matter of shooting two cucumbers and making a pot of good wine.

Especially Xu Huang, a stinky and shameless person, was the first one to ask for instructions after seeing Liu Xie's arrival: "Your Majesty, the last general's big ax is already hungry and thirsty. Please allow the Huben Army to be the vanguard!"

"Your Majesty, the Five Senses Army has been established for a long time and has not yet been tested. I implore Your Majesty to allow the new Five Senses Army to be the first!"

"Your Majesty, after being trapped in the camp, His Majesty has kept the system, and there has never been a tough battle. The final general Gao Shun is so heartbroken. This time, he must be trapped in the camp and play!"

"Your Majesty, the Northern Army of the Han Dynasty has always been strong and sharp. It is a regular field army. This is an ancient system!"

"General Xu, don't talk about the ancient system, our Majesty likes that... innovation, innovation. Your Majesty, the Imperial Forest Army has been established for more than half a year, and please dare to be the first in the world!"

"Your Majesty, I have spent half a year back in Chang'an, my father's revenge has not been avenged, and the final general is very depressed. Please use Yuan Shu to usurp the battle to relieve the depression of the late general!"

"Your Majesty, my daughter, you haven't married into the palace yet. The general thinks that the meritorious service is not enough for His Majesty to make up his mind, so I ask His Majesty to allow the general to fight. How about making another contribution?"

Looking at the generals in front of him asking for battle, Liu Xie's face suddenly darkened: "You are all veteran generals of the big man, not some tricksters in Chang'an City. I thought you would walk in and show off all of them. It's in the depths of the flowers!"

All the generals were puzzled for a moment, and then seeing Liu Xie was satisfied with his smile, they immediately roared with laughter.Xu Huang then looked impatient again, giving full play to his thick-skinned and hungry spirit, and asked again: "Your Majesty, who are you going to send us to play?"

"Still playing? You thought it was an opera..." Liu Xie once again feigned anger, but there was boundless pride in his chest.Just a few years ago, big men had to rely on veteran generals such as Huangfusong, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, etc. to fight, but now there are already so many fierce generals, and all the generals are delighted to hear the battle.

But one little regret is that there is also the trouble of having many soldiers and generals.For example, right now, Liu Xie really has some headaches as to how to dispatch generals.After all, if any of these generals and their troops were pulled out, Liu Xie felt that they could wipe out Yuan Shu.

"For this expedition, I still want to personally conquer. Since Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor and wants king to king, I will give Yuan Shu a perfect curtain call." After setting such a tone, Liu Xie eliminated these people as commanders. After thinking about it, he rubbed his neck and looked at these people helplessly and said: "The vanguard must invade like fire, so it must be cavalry, and the place to send troops must be close. Therefore, the Xiliang iron cavalry of Nanyang Zhangxiu must appear. Marquis Wen, Ma Chao, Xu Huang, whoever can persuade Zhang Xiu to be your lieutenant general, I will allow whoever is the vanguard."

Lu Bu, Ma Chao, and Xu Huang all looked at each other immediately, and the enthusiasm of working together just now had a faint sense of competition in an instant.These three are currently commanding cavalry, but Lu Bu and Xu Huang also know that this time the vanguard is probably Ma Chao: Who doesn't know that Zhang Xiu has always regarded Ma Chao as an idol?

But at this moment, a gentle voice slowly appeared: "Your Majesty, you only need to persuade General Zhang to be the lieutenant general, can you be the vanguard by commanding the Xiliang iron cavalry? The last general is not talented, and he dares to fight for it." .”

Liu Xie rubbed his forehead immediately, forgetting about Zhao Yun.Sure enough, there are too many good generals, very troublesome...

"Okay, you can try it too. I know that you are all Zhang Xiu's idols, and you will inevitably have to compete in front of Zhang Xiu. At that time, remember to inform me, and I also want to know how you two white horses and silver guns are. who is stronger."

After randomly assigning here, Liu Xie looked at Taishici again: "General Taishi, I know that after you were seriously injured in the Battle of Yuzhou, you were appointed as Habayashi Zhonglang. Although you deserved it, but I know I know that you have always felt ashamed of the Han family. You are right, I am indeed bold, and I don’t think that training can train a brave Yulin army, so this time you will go out with me.”

Speaking of Tai Shici, it also has something to do with Zhao Yun.When Tai Shici returned, he had been recuperating from his injuries, but Zhao Yun made a big splash in defeating Sun Ben in Chen Guo, and was appointed by Liu Xie as Habayashi Zhonglang.Later, after discussing the reform of the military system with Xun You, Liu Xie decided to retain Zhao Yun's white horse righteousness. At this time, Zhao Yun had met Tai Shici and cherished each other. Kindness.

Hearing that he could finally prove himself at this time, Tai Shici got up immediately, bowed heavily in front of Liu Xie and said: "The final general will definitely go through fire and water, and he will not hesitate!"

"General Xu, General Gao, you are all infantry, and you are the best at tough battles. Although Yuan Shu is just a paper tiger, I don't intend to take it lightly. There are many cavalry in the Han army, but they are still mainly infantry, so you two don't have to fight. , all follow me to the expedition."

"The last will obey!"

With the cavalry, the main force has also been settled.However, according to Liu Xie's usual style, he will still arrange a partial army.He looked at the famous generals in front of him, and he really had a headache: "Pianshi is going to cooperate with Jinyiwei this time. Xu Huang, you can take Sima Yi to take on the job. Sima Yi is a big kid, and he has already seen through the identities of many Jinyiweis. They got in touch. And Sima Yi thinks that you are honest and upright, and easier to control, so you can tell Sima Yi on the battlefield that your cleverness is best used on the right path."

Xu Huang chuckled, quite excited: "My God, after so many years, I can finally play again!"

"Your Majesty, the main swindlers are all there, where is the chief general?" Lu Bu was a little anxious, you know, this is the last chance.

Liu Xie's face became even more difficult. Among the remaining people, Lu Bu needless to say; Zhang Xi's performance in Kansai was also very eye-catching; He is also qualified; the most pitiful one is actually Zhang Liao, who has just left Lu Bu after so long. Seeing this opportunity to be on his own, he can only eagerly try but dare not speak out to offend a bunch of big shots...

"The choice of the chief general, you decide for yourself. You also know that the emperor is easy to discuss everything, and you know that you are all good generals who are loyal to the Han, and you will definitely not upset me because of this expedition. That's it , I still have something to do, I have to go to Shangshutai to ask Xun Junjun how it is in Xuzhou, you chat slowly, choose slowly, I am not in a hurry."

Your Majesty, you are not in a hurry, we are in a hurry.What's more, you are so insidious, you deliberately put a magic spell on us before you left, how do you want us to choose?
As a result, everyone looked at Liu Xie's back as he left gracefully, and immediately fell into a strange atmosphere.

"General Lu, will you be the chief general?"

"Oh, General Zhang, it's better for you to come."

"I think General Xu is the oldest, so General Xu is the most suitable."

"How can you do this? Fighting depends on ability. What does it have to do with seniority?"

"..."

Liu Xie outside the palace gate couldn't help feeling happy when he heard the rustling discussions inside: "Oh, there are so many good generals, it's really troublesome."
