Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 56
When Liu He arrived at Julu, the bandit army outside the city had already been killed by Guan Yu and the others. Wang Fen, the governor of Jizhou, sent people to bring the troops into the city, and thanked Liu He again and again.

The guests and hosts were seated in the lobby, Wang Fen sighed: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu can kill Zhang Bao at such a young age, and he has such a strong general. He really is a hero!"

Liu He humbly said, "Dong Zhonglang gave up the siege of Guangzong to make the rebel army come back from the ashes, and he had to take precautions early."

Hearing this, Wang Fen cursed angrily: "Dong Zhuo, a martial artist, is so overjoyed and eager for success that he almost made the giant deer fall into the hands of thieves. I have sent someone to report to Luoyang to replace this useless person earlier."

I saw a scribe next to him saying: "I'm afraid that the distant water will not be able to save the near fire. If Zhang Bao is killed, the remnants of the bandit army will gather at Guangzong. If Zhang Jiao hears the news, he will definitely raise his army to take revenge. Now we must Find Dong Zhonglang earlier and mobilize troops and horses to set up defense."

Liu He saw that this man was about thirty years old, with a goatee beard, small eyes shining, and a shrewd look. He knew many scholars in Hebei, nodded and said: "This gentleman is very right, I don't know how to call him?"

Wang Fen slapped his forehead, and said with a broken smile: "When you talk about Dong Zhuo, you get so angry! This is Xu You from Jizhou, and Xu Ziyuan from Nanyang!"

Liu He was taken aback, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Xu, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

This Xu You was a key figure in the Battle of Guandu. He was originally a counselor under Yuan Shao's account and was greedy for money. During the Battle of Guandu, his family was arrested for breaking the law, so he turned his back on Yuan to Cao and told Cao Cao where Yuan Shao's grain was located. nest.

Only then did Cao Cao attack Wuchao, Yuan Shao was defeated at Guandu, and then followed Cao Cao to pacify Jizhou. Because of his own achievements, he repeatedly uttered wild words, offended Cao Cao and was killed.

Xu You returned the gift, and Wang Fen said: "Dong Zhuo, who is from Xiliang, has always been greedy for military achievements and proud of himself. I'm afraid he may not listen to us."

Liu Heyan said: "The three armies cannot be without a commander. After all, Dong Zhuo is the official of the imperial court. If he does not come, we will not be able to mobilize other troops."

Wang Fen sighed helplessly: "It's a pity that the country is facing a crisis. We are subject to this rude warrior. Is it fate?"

Although he was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo's behavior, he still asked Xu You to arrange soldiers to find Dong Zhuo and invite him to come to Julu to preside over the important event.

Wang Fen was one of the "Eight Chefs" and was a member of the Qing Dynasty at that time. Chefs refer to those celebrities who can help the world with their wealth. They were forced to go into exile and hide under the influence of the party.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty abolished the imprisonment of party members, a large number of loyal ministers were reappointed, and Wang Fen was also appointed as the governor of Jizhou.

During this period of time, Wang Fen recommended Guo Dian and others to accept orders in the face of danger, to accept refugees, appease the rebellion, manage the army and manage the government, so that Jizhou temporarily settled down. Unexpectedly, just after a slight improvement, Dong Zhuo released the stubborn Yellow Turban Army. How could he not be angry?
In history, Wang Fen lived in Jizhou for four years and made the people's livelihood rich. Later, because Emperor Ling was so stupid, he tried to kill Emperor Ling and failed. However, this person laid the foundation for Jizhou's prosperity.

At this time, Wang Fen obviously hadn't thought about rebellion, and was dedicated to governance. He worked hard every day to resettle the refugees. He heard that Liu He was recruiting refugees in Zhuo County and recruiting the bandit army.

In the evening, soldiers brought Dong Zhuo back to the city, Wang Fen took Liu and they greeted him outside the mansion.

Dong Zhuo was dressed in rags and looked a little embarrassed. After seeing the ceremony, he asked, "Mr. Liu, where is my mount now?"

Looking for a horse as soon as you come up?
Liu He frowned, and suddenly realized that Dong Zhuo was worried that Liu He would bring up the matter of saving him. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he was so embarrassing and embarrassed, so he preempted the attack.

Immediately replied: "I'm really ashamed. In order to save the general, I rode a horse to drive away the bandits and fled into the mountains in a hurry. Unexpectedly, the horse was so violent that it refused to listen to the steering. It threw me off the horse and ran away by itself."

"What? You let go of my red rabbit?" Dong Zhuo's expression changed drastically when he heard that, and he shouted angrily, "The red rabbit is a thousand-mile horse, rare in the world, you must pay me."

Zhang Fei couldn't bear to watch from the sidelines, he stepped forward and shouted loudly: "My son did not hesitate to take risks to lure away the bandits, fought bloody battles, and saved Zhong Lang's life, how dare you be so powerless?"

Dong Zhuo was so frightened that he took two steps back, and shouted, "Who is so bold to charge against a certain family?"

He himself was also tall and tall, with a fierce look on his face, but compared with Zhang Fei's sturdy aura, he was much inferior. When Zhang Fei frightened him, he was a little frightened, and shouted fiercely according to the color of his sword.

Wang Fen hurried forward to stop him, and said with a smile: "You two don't need to quarrel, Mr. Liu sacrificed his life to save each other, because Dong Zhonglang is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Is Zhonglang's life not as good as a horse?"

Dong Zhuo frowned slightly, Wang Fen seemed to be speaking for him, but he always felt that he was deliberately mocking him, and said with a slight snort: "If my Feixiong army and Xiliang soldiers were here, they would have killed all the yellow scarf thieves long ago. , why this?"

After speaking, he gave Liu He a vicious look, and stepped into the mansion first.

"Hmph!" Guan Yu snorted slightly, clutching his three-foot long beard, exuding a murderous aura from his body.

"Don't get angry!" Liu He smiled lightly. It's not a disadvantage to get the Chituma this time, and said with a low smile: "My mother is gone, so you don't need to be as knowledgeable as him."

Wang Fen was stunned, thinking that he had heard wrongly, and shook his ears. He never thought that Liu He, as a child of a family, could be so clever at cursing.

When everyone entered the mansion, Wang Fen had already ordered someone to set up a banquet. Everyone sat down. Dong Zhuo's face was gloomy, and he didn't thank Liu He for saving his life at all.

In fact, Liu He can also understand in his heart that if he loses the red rabbit horse, he will probably hate it too much.

But it was cheated from Dong Zhuo, he didn't feel guilty at all, but Dong Zhuoyue was angry, the more he found it funny, if it wasn't for the banquet, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Wang Fen saw that Dong Zhuo was drinking with his head buried in the wine and was rude to the rescuer, so he shook his head and sighed secretly, feeling more and more that Dong Zhuo, a reckless person, would not be able to accomplish anything.

On the other hand, Liu He was calm and composed, and he didn't care about Dong Zhuo'en's revenge. He couldn't help but secretly admire him. With such a broad mind, coupled with both civil and military skills, he will become a great weapon in the future.

A banquet broke up unhappy, Wang Fen asked Dong Zhuo to immediately dispatch troops to protect the giant deer and resist the bandit army, Dong Zhuo hastily agreed and left first.

Liu He also took Guan Zhang and others back to the temporary residence. Zhang Fei was out of breath and walked back and forth in the house like a trapped animal, angrily saying: "We saved this guy, but he is so rude. It will be hard if we don't kill him." Calm me down!"

Liu Heyan said: "Dong Zhuo is an official appointed by the imperial court. If you kill him, you will commit treason. Wouldn't it be wrong to trap me?"

Zhang Fei said unwillingly: "This bastard holds a grudge in his heart, and I really don't want to obey his subordinates' orders! Why don't you stay here, I'll go to Xia Quyang to help Guo Taishou defend the city."

In fact, Liu He didn't want to obey Dong Zhuo's orders. This guy hated the matter of Chitu and was afraid that he would play tricks secretly. After thinking for a moment, he said: "We are here to hunt for thieves, so we should focus on the overall situation. I will go to Wang later. Inspector, let Dong Zhuo stay in Julu, let's guard other cities!"

Zhang Fei then nodded and said, "It's not too bad, I don't want to see this guy for a moment."
