Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 127
Liu Yu came to the front yard and saw that Cai Yan's father and daughter had just packed their bags and were about to say goodbye to him.

After Cai Yan knew that it was because of his mistake that Lv Bu saw through his identity, he blamed himself, and now he was about to be separated from Liu Yu, and he felt even more reluctant.

"Husband, you have to take care of your health after Yan'er leaves!" Cai Yan had a look of reluctance, even though his father Cai Yong was right in front of him, he still used to call Liu Yu his husband.

"Don't worry, Yan'er, I will definitely take you home again in a short time!" Liu Yu also showed no stinginess in his concern for Cai Yan, and tightened the cloak behind her with his own hands.

The two are like a newlywed couple who are about to leave soon, but in fact Liu Yu and Cai Yan have not officially announced their relationship.

As the prospective father-in-law, Cai Yong was not only not angry when he saw the two of them being friendly, but smiled with satisfaction.

How can I ask for a good husband like Liu Yu!
After bidding farewell to Cai Yan, Liu Yu came to the prospective father-in-law, "I have arranged for Ma Chao and Zhang Da on the way, and Mr. Cai just needs to go on his way with peace of mind!"

"Since this is the case, let's start as soon as possible, otherwise things will change if we are late!" Cai Yong knew the seriousness of the situation and dared not delay too much, so he pulled his daughter into a carriage.

Then Ma Chao and Zhang Da clasped their fists to Liu Yu respectively, and then drove the carriage out of the alley as planned.

After seeing off Cai Yan and his daughter, Qin Fu also left the Liu Mansion. After thinking for a while, Liu Yu felt that there was nothing missing, so he walked quickly to the opposite Huangfu's house.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Huangfu Yan waiting in the courtyard.

"Greetings to King Zhongshan!" Huangfuyan clasped his fists and bowed to the end.

Both he and his father Huangfusong had expressed their loyalty to Liu Yu, and Liu Yu was also the savior of their Huangfu family, so he paid special attention to etiquette.

"No need to be too polite, take me to meet some adults!" Liu Yu waved his hand to signal him to get up and speak.

"Those adults are waiting in father's study, and please invite King Zhongshan to follow me!" Under Huang Fuyan's leadership, Liu Yu soon came to a small and secret room.

This is Huangfusong's small study room. When Liu Yu entered the door, he saw Wang Yun, Xun Shuang, Yang Biao and the master Huangfusong sitting next to each other in the middle.

"You are here, King Zhongshan, and you are almost waiting for us!" Yang Biao got up regardless of his status, and gave Liu Yu his seat to sit down.

Wang Yun also asked anxiously: "The day after tomorrow is the day when the army will go out, so Mu Zhi has already figured out how to deal with the Guo Si army?"

Before Liu Yu could speak, Xun Shuang brought up the unformed plan of the few people who had their first meeting in Situ Mansion.

Xun Shuang said: "Didn't Muzhi say before that he would mobilize [-] Yulin troops from Hulao Pass to Luoyang? I don't know where the army is now? Can it be used to ambush Guo Si's army?"

At that time, Liu Yu deliberately leaked some strength to the royalists in order to win the trust of the royalists, but it was impossible for [-] Yulin troops to march from Hulao Pass to the vicinity of Luoyang.

You must know that General Zuo Li Jue's army is still guarding Gong County, and that is the final place where Hulao Pass went south.

"Deploying troops and generals is no joke. It is not so easy for 1 people to pass through Gong County without anyone noticing, and this [-] Yulin Army is all my savings. Premature exposure will only arouse Dong Zhuo's suspicion. , it’s better to leave it at the critical moment before enabling it!”

As soon as Liu Yu said that he didn't want to transfer troops, Wang Yun and Xun Shuang became anxious. The military rations were provided by their two families, and they didn't want to waste it on Guo Si's army.

And they don't want to see Guo Bang really wipe out the Baibo thief, so as to open up the grain road from Chang'an to Luoyang.

"Muzhi promised to deal with Guo Si, but now he is unwilling to send troops to help. Do you want to see the good situation being overthrown by the Xiliang faction?" Wang Yun's face became serious, and his tone became a little bit unfriendly.

Liu Yu explained with a smile: "Master Situ misunderstood, the lack of food in Luoyang is an excellent opportunity to attack the Xiliang army, but there is no need to mobilize my ten thousand elite soldiers to deal with Guo Si's army!"

In order to stabilize Wang Yun and the three of them, he also explained that the [-] Yulin Army was secretly assigned to approach Luoyang, and when the army was assembled, he would hand over the military power to the three of them.

"I was the one who waited for Meng Lang. It turns out that Mu Zhi had already planned a strategy!" Wang Yun smiled again.

But Yang Biao asked uncertainly: "Can the Guo Si army be wiped out without using the [-] Yulin army? Could it be that King Zhongshan wants to use that strategy?"

Liu Yu smiled and replied: "Naturally, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight is the best strategy!"

Liu Yu had previously revealed the plan to kill with a knife, but Wang Yunsan felt that it was difficult to win the trust of the Baibo thief at the time, so they didn't discuss this plan in depth.

At this moment, Liu Yu brought up this plan again, and also assured that he had found a reliable contact person.

"The informant is sure to be trustworthy?"

"Lord Sikong, don't worry, I never do things that I'm not sure about!"

Xun Shuang nodded after hearing this, but there was still a little worry on his face. After looking at Wang Yun for a few times, he said again: "Actually, Master Situ and I have some private soldiers. To ensure that the plan is not lost, we Prepare to deploy more ambushes along the way!"

As soon as Liu Yu heard that Wang Yun and Xun Shuang still wanted to send troops, he stood up happily, "If we can ambush Guo Bang's soldiers and horses all the way, it will be safe!"

From this point, it can also be seen that Xun Shuang and others are still very rigorous in doing things, and the former four big families in Luoyang are still very powerful.

"I don't know how many soldiers and horses the two adults have summoned?" Liu Yu asked.

"Before I came, I asked Wang Kai to go to the manor outside the city to recruit people. There may be more than 3000 people!"

After Wang Yun finished speaking, Xun Shuang also put two fingers in the depths, indicating that he could mobilize 2000 private soldiers.

Finally, Yang Biao also promised to provide 1000 private soldiers.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was common for a large family to raise private soldiers. According to historical records, when Liu Bei was in Xuzhou, the rich businessman Mi Zhu poured out his family property and gave it to Liu Yu’s tens of thousands of nurses and followers. It can be seen that the large family itself is a powerful small family. princes.

There are six thousand private soldiers, but there is still one less commander who can command the overall situation.

Huangfusong had to be with Guo Si, so Wang Yun proposed to hand over the command of the army to Liu Yu.

After hearing this, Liu Yu clasped his fists gratefully to thank him, but he immediately pointed out that he was not competent.

"Thanks to the three adults for their trust, but I was appointed by Dong Zhuo as the head of the Weiyang princess's bodyguard. I can't leave the city for too long, so I ask the three adults to find a more suitable candidate!"

"Why is that Dong Zhuo really deceiving people so much, the majestic King Zhongshan wants to be his granddaughter's bodyguard, this is too insulting!" Wang Yun clapped the case angrily.

Wang Yun had heard from his nephew Wang Kai what happened in the West City yesterday, and they had also heard about Liu Yu being punished as Dong Bai's bodyguard.

So the suggestion to let Liu Yu command the troops just now was actually a test, but Wang Yun's anger was more for the purpose of buying people's hearts.

Xun Shuang also sighed heavily, and said with some disappointment: "Since Muzhi has no way to clone himself, the three of us should each appoint a commander to Muzhi to command and train!"

Naturally, Liu Yu could no longer refuse, so he could only open his mouth to answer.
