Chapter 304 Internal strife between the two armies, with Hua Xiong behind
In fact, if Liu Chong thought about it carefully, he would think that Zhao Yun's name could not be a pseudonym at all. It was just because he was too panicked that he asked such an unclear question.
The advantage I had just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Facing Zhao Yun with a stern face, Liu Chong's heart began to beat unconsciously.
However, King Chen has been good at hunting and fond of martial arts since he was young. He often considers himself a hero. Now, even though he met Zhao Yun, a fierce general who is rare to see in ten years, he did not want to weaken the opponent in terms of momentum.
Then they saw Liu Chong holding a sword and staring fiercely at Zhao Yun, his teeth gnashing as if he wanted to swallow the opponent flat.
"You want me to die? Do you have the ability?"
Zhao Yun remained motionless, just looking at him expressionlessly.
"die!"
King Chen roared angrily and suddenly kicked the table away!
Then he saw the food and wine on the table flying towards Zhao Yun opposite.
Zhao Yun hurriedly waved the long sword in his hand, knocking those things aside.
Liu Chong took advantage of this opportunity and stabbed Zhao Yun between the eyebrows with his sword.
He was also self-aware and knew that with his own ability, he could not be Zhao Yun's opponent, so he resorted to such despicable methods.
It's a pity that even with this method, Liu Chong is not Zhao Yun's enemy.
Liu Chong took advantage of the chaos and stabbed him with his sword. Before the person arrived, he suddenly felt a burst of tightness in his chest.
He was kicked in the chest by Zhao Yun.
Then, Liu Chong was seen flying out like a kite with its string broken, and landed heavily on the ground with a loud "bang".
"Wow!"
Liu Chong turned his head and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Zhao Yun stepped forward and stepped on Liu Chong's chest.
Then, he saw his long sword pointed directly at Liu Chong's throat.
Jushou stood up hastily.
Liu Chong's mouth was bleeding and his whole body was trembling. Looking at Zhao Yun's sword that was already at his throat, he opened his mouth in panic:
"Zhao, Mr. Zhao, spare my life! Spare my life!"
Jushou came behind Zhao Yun and said: "Zilong, this person is still useful, don't kill him..."
"This insect has a vicious heart and is planning to harm us! The crime is so heinous that it cannot be spared!"
Jushu said: "Even if we have to deal with it, we need to be cautious. We should wait until the lord returns to the city."
After listening to Ju Shou's words, Liu Chong nodded repeatedly and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, that's right! That's right! You can't kill me. I am King Chen of the Han Dynasty and a relative of the emperor! In this world, only the emperor has the right to deal with the princes.
King, if you dare to attack me, you are no different than a traitor..."
Before Liu Chong could say anything, he saw Zhao Yun's long sword suddenly thrust forward and pierced the long sword directly into King Chen's throat.
No one expected that Zhao Yun would do it as soon as he said it.
Liu Chong, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes in fear and stared at Zhao Yun intently.
Then, he hurriedly reached out to cover his throat, but it had no effect.
Blood dripped from his fingers, staining his palms, neck and clothes red, and then surged out, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop it.
Liu Chong stared at Zhao Yun with big eyes.
He seemed not to have thought that Zhao Yun would actually dare to kill him.
His eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.
A majestic prince king, known as the most courageous and courageous among the princes and kings in the world, and perhaps the most promising one among the princes and kings... Now he died so quietly at the banquet!
And this banquet happened to be a banquet held just because he wanted to kill others...
It is simply a shame and humiliation. It would be embarrassing to die.
Luo Jun, who was not far away, looked at the scene in front of him in horror.
He who usually claims to be resourceful is now dumbfounded, not knowing what to do next?
No one thought that Zhao Yun would actually kill a noble prince at this juncture.
Jushou looked at Zhao Yun in confusion. In his impression, Zhao Yun should be a man with a calm personality.
Although he is young, he is very measured in his actions and will never overstep his bounds.
Liu Chong was a vassal king no matter what, so it would be too hasty to kill him before his crimes were made public to the world.
Even if he deserves to be punished for his other crimes, it would be most appropriate if Liu Jian reported it to the Ming court and then the emperor ordered him to be punished.
But then, Jushou suddenly understood Zhao Yun's intention.
No matter what, Liu Chong should not die in Liu Jian's hands. After all, they are all clan members of the Han Dynasty, even if Liu Chong takes the lead in attacking.
But Hua Xiong of the Xiliang Army is about to arrive in Yangxia County.
Behind him were tens of thousands of troops from Hu Zhen and Lu Bu. These were the formidable enemies our side was about to face.
Although Yangxia has food, it may not be easy to defend. At this moment, the city needs to be united and stable without any disagreements.
Otherwise, once the Xiliang army seizes the opportunity, it will be an unprecedented disaster for Liu Jian and others.
There is no doubt that Liu Chong is an unstable factor. Even if he is captured alive by his own side, he will not be stable.
After all, Liu Chong has been in charge of Chen State for many years, and since the beginning of the Yellow Turban War, he has been constantly recruiting troops to expand his influence.
He himself was extremely influential among Chen Guojun.
As long as Liu Chong is still alive, there is no guarantee that someone will use Liu Chong to divide Chen Guo's soldiers and generals, and the soldiers in Yangxia County are also very likely to mutiny.
Therefore, at this moment, Zhao Yun shouldered the responsibility of killing Liu Chong without hesitation.
This was something he did without authorization. Even if Liu Chong died, it had nothing to do with Liu Jian. It was Zhao Yun who did it alone.
Later, Liu Jian only needed to punish Zhao Yun severely with a cruel trick, which could also calm the anger of Chen's army.
You can even win over Chen Guo's soldiers and generals by punishing Zhao Yun.
In short, Zhao Yun sacrificed himself to deal with Liu Jian's future difficulties.
Moreover, to capture Liu Chong alive now is to report to the capital. If the emperor has no intention to deal with him later, what will Liu Jian do to Liu Chong?
Therefore, someone must step forward to handle this matter for Liu Jian.
After Jushou understood Zhao Yun's intention, he solemnly saluted Zhao Yun without saying a word.
Then, Jushou looked at Luo Jun on the other side and asked: "How are you, Prime Minister Luo? Do you want to leave with your king now, or do you want to atone for your sins and stand up and do what you should do? Please choose
!”
…
At this time, outside the palace, Liu Chong's swordsmen and axemen were fighting with the white soldiers.
Although the number of Baijie soldiers was small, they always guarded the main entrance, preventing outsiders from rushing in.
No matter how hard Chen Guo's swordsmen attacked, they would not be able to get any closer.
The current Bailian soldiers are so strong.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the foyer.
Immediately afterwards, Ju Shou, Yan Liang and Zhao Yun escorted Luo Jun out.
"Put down your weapons..."
Luo Jun shouted at the swordsmen and axemen.
But the voice completely lost its usual momentum and seemed listless.
The swordsmen and axemen seemed hesitant when they saw Luo Jun and listened to his words.
Ju said: "Prime Minister, your people are disobedient!"
"I asked you to put down your weapons, don't you understand?"
Luo Jun roared at the top of his lungs.
As the Prime Minister of the Chen State, Luo Jun's political status was still higher than that of Liu Chong. He issued the order so hoarsely that the soldiers of the Chen State naturally did not dare to disobey him.
"Pah——"
"Pah——"
With a loud sound, the weapons in the hands of the swordsmen and axes were thrown to the ground.
…
At the same time, several captains and Sima sent by Liu Chong to take over the Jizhou army were also killed by Zhang He and Gao Lan.
Then Zhang He and Gao Lan began to take over Chen's army in Yangxia City on the grounds that Liu Chong had rebelled against the imperial court and Liu Jian was ordered by the emperor to take over the Chen State.
Of course, this process will not be so smooth.
There were many generals in Chen Guojun in the city who were Liu Chong's confidants. They refused to surrender and gathered their troops to fight Zhang He, Gao Lan and others to the death.
However, the highest-ranking figures in Liu Chong's army are basically in the official offices... Those people have now been killed by Zhao Yun.
The remaining mid-level officers have different affiliations, and they do not have enough influence to command all Chen's troops, so they basically fight independently.
Under such circumstances, Zhang He and Gao Lan did not need to start a large-scale battle. They only targeted some limited key areas and people. After killing some key people, they could paralyze the command of Chen's army.
, so that we can take over Yangxia County as quickly as possible.
At this moment, before the Xiliang army came to attack, there was already a chaos inside Yangxia City.
…
At the same time, Hua Xiong, the right commander of the Xiliang Army, had led his troops to Liu Jian's garrison at Honggou according to Liu Chong's instructions.
But at this time, Liu Jian had already led his troops to leave the camp, leaving only an empty camp.
Hua Xiong was furious after seeing this scene.
"Liu Deran is really hateful. He has reached such a state and yet he was allowed to escape! This general is really angry!"
After saying that, Hua Xiong thrust the knife into the ground with force.
It was at this time that a Xiliang army scout came from the east to hit Hua Xiong.
The scout reported to Hua Xiong that great changes had taken place in Yangxia City.
Although they could not enter the city, the shouts of killing could be heard outside the city. Two armies were faintly seen fighting on top of the city. It was obvious that there was a mutiny.
When Hua Xiong heard this, he seemed to understand something.
"No wonder Liu Jian ran away in a hurry. He didn't realize that Ben was going to kill him, but that Liu Chong was trying to seize his military power in the city! He went back to seize power with Liu Chong, and internal strife broke out between the two armies.
, isn’t it when I take advantage of the chaos to make a surprise attack and capture Yangxia in one fell swoop?”
Thinking of this, Hua Xiong couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile.
"Hahahaha! God is really helping me!"
Behind Hua Xiong, his lieutenant admonished him: "Captain, although there are changes in the enemy's city, it is not too late for us to wait for the rear army escorting the siege equipment to arrive before we can attack again."
"No!"
Hua Xiong flatly refused.
"The current internal strife between Liu Jian and Liu Chong is a God-given opportunity. If we waste the opportunity and allow any of them to stabilize Yangxia, this opportunity will never come again! We don't have to wait for the rear army, we will do it now
Going to Yangxia, as the saying goes, the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman wins."
