Chapter 26: Compromise


Wang Kuang led his troops to block the front, preventing He Miao from leading his troops to the former Huben Army station to annihilate Dong Zhuo.

He Miao was very angry about this, but he did not rashly order an attack on Wang Kuang.

He Miao is not He Jin.

He still considers the feelings of Queen Mother He when he acts and will not act rashly.

He and the Queen Mother He are brothers and sisters from the same mother.

He Jin and the Queen Mother He are half-brothers from the same mother.

He Miao was brought to the He family by his mother when he was young and changed his surname to He.

Therefore, He Jin and He Miao are half-brothers.

The relationship was not good, which was one of the reasons why He Miao did not help He Jin when He Jin was fighting with the eunuchs.

It also led Wang Kuang to mistakenly believe that He Miao colluded with the eunuchs and killed He Jin.

The two armies were in a stalemate for most of the day.

He Miao became a little impatient.

He was about to order the army to attack, but the emperor Liu Bian's order came, asking him to lead his army back to the camp and wait for orders.

After hearing the eunuch's announcement, He Miao was so angry that he beat the eunuch who announced the order with a horse whip until he ran away.

But he had to obey the order.

The emperor was his nephew.

If he didn't support the emperor, he, a cavalry general, would probably die.

It won't last long.

"Withdraw" He Miao ordered with hatred, turned around and left with the army.

Wang Kuang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw He Miao leading his army to leave.

In fact, he was still beating the drum in his heart.

He only had 5,000 men in hand, and he was really hanging on to the nearly 20,000 Northern troops in He Miao's hands.

What if?

He Miao desperately ordered the attack, and the five thousand men and horses in his hands were absolutely unable to stop them.

After the news reached the Xiyuan Army Camp, Yuan Shao also breathed a sigh of relief.

He was already under tremendous pressure by hiding in the camp and refusing to accept the emperor's edict, and this time must not last long, otherwise his Yuan family's reputation would be ruined.

It was broken, and he had to rush to the palace to apologize to the emperor.

He had already thought about the reason for not receiving the order in time.

Dong Zhuo had been living in fear.

When Liu Cheng sent someone to inform him that the emperor and the court had agreed to his conditions, he felt relieved.

He actually only has 3,000 Xiliang troops.

In order to strengthen his military strength, he has sent people to Xiliang a few days ago.

He ordered his younger brother Dong Min to lead 20,000 horses to come first.

The remaining Xiliang troops were led by his son-in-law Niu Fu and Generals Li Jue, Guo Si and others continued to occupy the counties of Xiliang and confronted Huangfu Song.

At night, the Yulin Army camp is in the imperial city.

In the lobby, Chen Dao, Lu Weihuang, Xia Chaozong, Liang Chengyi, Xu Rong, Yan Xing, Zhao Yun and Wang Shuang were all kneeling on both sides.

Advocate Bo Zhang was sitting on the table next to the boss and was curious.

Look at everyone.

Liu Cheng walked up and down the hall with his arms linked, frowning and thinking hard.

Everyone didn't know what he was thinking, so they didn't say anything for fear of disturbing him.

Lord Bo Zhang saw Liu Cheng sighing and frowning from time to time, and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what is it that you can't figure out?

Why don't you tell me that one person is short-sighted and three people are wise, so that everyone can discuss the details together?"

Liu Cheng stopped, looked up at the talents on the left and right sides who had just been hired under his command, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Okay, except Zhao Rui who is on duty today, everyone else is here.

Since you have surrendered to a certain , I am also at ease with you, so I will tell you and ask you to take a closer look at Luoyang now.

The situation in the city is complicated, and our strength is still not enough.

There are more than 2,000 right-wing soldiers and horses, plus the former forbidden soldiers and horses who have just returned, the total is less than 3,000.

The newly recruited more than 1,000 people are not of use for the time being.

This wait I can only barely defend the palace with my strength, but with Dong Zhuo's men and horses on my side, I will have trouble sleeping and eating.

If I want to continue The emperor and the queen mother definitely supported the continued recruitment of soldiers and horses, but there were two problems: First, it took a long time to recruit soldiers and horses and train them into an army to form combat capabilities.

Now the situation in Luoyang City is unpredictable and no one can predict it.

Anticipating what will happen tomorrow, what we lack most is time.

Secondly, recruiting more than a certain number of troops The quantity will definitely be opposed by the court ministers.

At the same time, the emperor's personal financial resources cannot bear the huge military expenditure for a long time, and it must be allocated from the treasury.

This will definitely make the court ministers unhappy, so the resistance is very high.

It is best and fastest.

The way is to control other existing armies.

I don’t know if you have any way.”

The military attaches were not good at this kind of conspiracy and political struggle, and they could not think of any good solutions.

Only the advocate Bo Zhang stood up after thinking for a while and asked: "General, I don't know who is controlling the Northern Army now."

Liu Chengdao: "The Northern Army has five schools.

The Changshui Department and the Shooting Department have been transferred to the command of Huangfusong.

There are still three schools of Tunqi, Yueqi and Infantry in Luoyang.

The former Tunqi School Lieutenant and Xiyuan Army Since Bao Hong, the Lieutenant of the Military Academy, was imprisoned and died in prison in March this year, the Colonel of the Tun Cavalry has been vacant.

He Yong, the Lieutenant Commander of the Northern Army, expressed his disapproval of this incident.

The captain of the Yue Cavalry Corps, Wu Fu, was a very loyal and upright person, and he only obeyed the emperor's orders; the infantry commander, Zhou Huang, was He Miao's son.

With the emperor's orders, he can control more than two-thirds of the Northern Army troops currently stationed in Luoyang."

Zhang Ji thought for a while and said, "General, we have no way to insert our hands into the Xiyuan Army for the time being.

The Northern Army can think of a way.

But if the general goes to He Miao directly, He Miao will not care about the general inserting his hands into his territory."

I'm afraid he won't be happy and he won't agree, but if the general In the name of Queen Mother He, it should not be difficult for He Miao to obediently send another person who can speak well as a water guest.

In addition, the Lieutenant Colonel of the Northern Army has the responsibility of supervising the various schools of the Northern Army.

The school’s influence is limited, but he is fully qualified to recommend candidates for Yueqi Colonel.”

Liu Cheng couldn't help but nodded after hearing Zhang Ji's analysis, and asked: "Who can persuade He Miao to agree to my general sending a military attache to the Northern Army?"

Zhang Ji was the only civil servant among the people present.

Zhang Ji could only stand up with a helpless smile and said: "This is a humble job and I am willing to go to He Miao's mansion.

All I need is two followers and a meeting gift."

Liu Cheng summoned Wang Shuang and asked him to send two followers to Zhang Ji and prepare a gift for him to take away.

Zhang Ji rushed to He Miao's house overnight with his two entourages and gifts.

After knocking on the door, he handed over greeting cards and gifts and explained his purpose.

He was quickly invited in.

He Miao, wearing a loose robe, knelt on the main seat and looked at Zhang Ji who was walking over, her eyes constantly sizing up the young man.

Zhang Ji stepped forward and bowed his hands: "Bo Zhang Ji, the leader of General Pi and Liu Cheng's tent, pays homage to General Chariot and Cavalry."

He Miao raised his hand and pointed to a table next to him: "Without courtesy, Mr.

Zhang, please take a seat."

"Thank you General" He Miao recruited people to bring wine and meat for Zhang Ji to enjoy.

While eating, he asked: "I wonder why General Liu sent Zhang Zhubo to see this general?"

Zhang Ji cut off a piece of barbecue, put it into his mouth and chewed it.

He nodded and said it tasted good.

After chewing it, he swallowed it and said, "General, do you know your situation?"

He Miao was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Sir, please help Miao clear up his doubts":
