Chapter 128 Liu Cheng is injured, but the injury is of special value (two in one)
"Captain, be careful!"
"Uncle Emperor!"
"Thieves, don't hurt anyone!"
As the man covered in blood jumped up suddenly, panicked shouts arose amid the sudden change.
Liu Cheng obviously noticed the sudden change around him and quickly dodged.
However, he could not completely avoid it, and his left leg was stabbed by the thief!
"Die!"
After the man stabbed Liu Cheng with one blow, he wanted to strike again, but Liu Cheng suddenly let out a roar at this time.
The iron halberd in his hand suddenly stabbed down!
Without waiting for this guy to make any more unnecessary moves, he penetrated the whole thing with an iron halberd and nailed it directly to the ground!
The man's eyes widened, and he tried to make other attacks, but was unable to do so.
"Captain!"
"Uncle Emperor!"
At this time, many anxious people rushed to Liu Cheng, surrounded him, and asked extremely urgently.
There are also people who are overly nervous and subconsciously swing their swords towards the person whose pupils have dilated.
"It's okay, it's just a mosquito bite. It's not a big injury for such a small injury."
Liu Cheng smiled and said to these people who came up to him and were extremely concerned about him.
He said he was fine, but no one present believed him and thought he was fine.
Because his legs were bleeding profusely at this time!
That spear pierced his calf directly!
Facing so many anxious and worried people around him, Liu Cheng took out a spare bandage from the side of his horse, tied the upper part of his wound tightly to stop the bleeding, and said with a smile without changing his expression: "
I've passed all the rivers and seas, but I didn't expect that I would get hurt at this moment!"
After that, he directly pulled out the spear!
There was no trace of fear or worry on his face.
It was as if the injured leg was not his own, but someone else's.
Liu Cheng really wasn't too worried.
Because the wound on his leg looks scary, but it is actually not too serious and does not hurt the vital part. It will heal after a while.
The reason why there is such a high degree of confidence is that during this period of time, Liu Cheng helped wounded soldiers deal with their wounds a lot and had a relatively clear understanding of various injuries. There is another extremely important reason!
The reason is that Liu Cheng was actually the one who took the stabbing this time. In the process of giving way, he had already chosen the place where he would be stabbed.
The real reason why Liu Cheng took the initiative to finish up the soldiers who fell on the ground this time was to find an enemy who had not died and was more courageous, so that the enemy could injure him.
In this case, he was naturally prepared for this.
Before he even walked up to the soldier, he had already discovered that this guy was pretending to be dead.
Under such circumstances, if Liu Cheng hadn't wanted to get hurt, the guy who was nailed to the ground with his backhand wouldn't have been able to hurt him at all.
Of course, Liu Cheng did not lose his mind and insisted on letting someone stab him and injure himself.
This stab was an extremely important part of his plan.
When Liu Cheng first came to Sishui Pass, the goal he set for himself was to win more battles.
With the help of the allied forces of the Kwantung princes, the attack on Sishui Pass is a great opportunity to have a good fight with the Kwantung princes, step on these people, and make a name for yourself.
While defeating the enemy and winning, win over as many people as possible, improve your prestige in the army, and cultivate and strengthen your power.
Now, with the defeat of the Liu, Guan, and Zhang coalition forces in this battle, as well as the ambushed Gongsun Zan troops behind them, his reputation as a good fighter will definitely spread, and he will completely gain a firm foothold in Dong Zhuo's army.
Prestige and people's hearts will be greatly improved and reach a new stage.
Now that things have developed to this point, Liu Cheng also needs to make some adjustments to his strategic goals based on the development of current events and some of the history he knows.
The battle to be won cannot be fought any longer.
At least now we can't continue fighting.
If the fight continues, Liu Cheng's prestige and reputation will continue to improve to some extent, but the losses in other aspects will be relatively large.
As early as when he was at Lu Boxhe's home, facing Cao Cao's head, Liu Chenggong had already determined his goal, which was to compete in this era.
If you want to compete in this era, you just need to be able to fight and know how to fight.
There are many other aspects that need to be considered, such as the general environment and timing.
At this time, the Han Dynasty was still powerful, Dong Zhuo was still in its prime, and Liu Cheng was still weak. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Liu Cheng to achieve the goals he had set before.
Even if he had the ability to kill Dong Zhuo at this time, he would still be unable to do so.
There are also a large number of loyal officials of the Han Dynasty who will not agree to him becoming emperor...
Fortunately, there is another Dong Zhuo here.
What Liu Cheng needs Dong Zhuo to do is to follow the original trajectory of history and kill as many royalists as possible.
And through his many actions, he constantly lowered the bottom line of the emperor, loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and the people of the world.
Only when you first push these people's bottom lines down, and then fight for them yourself, will the resistance become smaller.
And, in addition to these, there is another huge benefit.
That is, after doing these things, Dong Zhuo will definitely become full of evil. Even if he cannot become the public enemy of the entire world, he will definitely be called the public enemy of the vast majority of people!
At that time, at that point, if I take action to kill Dong Zhuo, then no matter how much I have done before, in the eyes of the people of the world, it is a bad thing, evil things, as I have killed the world's number one evil thief, I will
The public opinion will definitely be completely reversed.
You can instantly restore your image in the hearts of the world and become a righteous man!
Of course, if things are done straightforwardly, the effect may not be so good.
But Liu Cheng, who came from later generations and had seen some things that were like garbage packaged into treasures and then sold at high prices, naturally would not be so straightforward.
After Dong Zhuo is killed, there will definitely be a series of means to package the matter.
With the reality of killing Dong Zhuo and some subsequent packaging methods, Liu Cheng has absolute confidence and completely reverses his image among the world!
Can gain great reputation!
At this time, Liu Cheng took the initiative to injure himself in order to realize the following grand strategies.
At this time, Liu Cheng found that he had already beaten these Kwantung Allied Forces a bit too badly.
If he continues to fight and wins all the way, Dong Zhuo will probably not move the capital as he did in history...
Ensuring that Dong Zhuo will move the capital according to the original history is Liu Cheng's most important task now.
After all, many of Dong Zhuo's outrageous things were all carried out after he moved the capital.
If Dong Zhuo before moving the capital still had some bottom line, then Dong Zhuo after moving the capital completely let himself go.
All kinds of things are constantly being done outside.
No worries.
The bottom line of the Han Dynasty and the people of the world was constantly lowered by Dong Zhuo's actions, and his reputation was also pushed to the extreme step by step by his actions.
Now, after once again defeating the troops of Gongsun Zan and others, the troops of the Guandong princes here have been weakened to an even greater extent.
It has exceeded the level that Liu Cheng knew in history.
If Liu Cheng did not stop at this time, the historical process, at least the general direction of Dong Zhuo's actions, would most likely be affected.
In other words, it is very likely that Dong Zhuo will change the historical practice and stop moving the capital to Chang'an.
In this case, Liu Cheng, who had many plans in his mind, was a little confused.
However, in the current situation where his side is winning successively, it is really difficult for Liu Cheng to find a suitable way to hold his troops still and keep a hand against these Guandong princes.
After all, while doing this, he also had to ensure that Dong Zhuo would not be suspicious.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Chenggong made the decision to allow himself to be reasonably injured.
As the commander of Sishui Pass, I am injured, and it is quite serious. Is it always possible to restrain the soldiers and horses, stay in Sishui Pass, and recuperate well?
You can always use this reason to block the mouths of many people with an upright face and face Dong Zhuo with your head held high, right?
Compared with the many beneficial things that follow, letting others stab you is nothing.
The temporary pain is exchanged for many benefits in the future. No matter how you calculate it, it is very worthwhile for Liu Cheng.
After all, men just need to hate themselves a little sometimes.
If you don't be cruel to yourself, life will be cruel to you.
When life really hits you hard, it will definitely be harder than when you hit yourself hard...
As for before, when Liu Cheng faced Gongsun Zan, he deliberately held back and did not harm Gongsun Zan's life. This was also the consideration.
If Gongsun Zan is also killed, then there will be even fewer outstanding figures on Yuan Shao's side.
Of course, another reason is that Liu Cheng planned to use Gongsun Zan to contain Yuan Shao.
Historically, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao were at odds with each other. Gongsun Zan's existence greatly slowed down Yuan Shao's development.
If nothing unexpected happens, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao will still fight each other in the future.
After all, Gongsun Zan was in Youzhou, while Yuan Shao was in Bohai, serving as the governor of Bohai.
The two are very close geographically.
Moreover, according to Yuan Shao's temperament and current status, he will naturally not be satisfied with just the Bohai Sea.
When the time comes, two people with the same ulterior motives will definitely fight!
As for Liu Cheng, if everything goes as smoothly as he wants, he will not have the strength or energy to care about the vast area of Kandong for a long time.
Under such circumstances, leaving more opponents for Yuan Shao to contain and restrict Yuan Shao's development has become something Liu Cheng is very willing to do and must do.
In addition to this, there is another more important reason: the world at this time is not chaotic enough!
It didn't collapse to a certain extent.
There is a saying that cannot be established without destruction.
Troubled times are the best stage for careerists.
Many things that are restricted by various rules and regulations in times of governance can be smoothly displayed in times of chaos.
Moreover, many 'stubborn diseases' that could not be touched in the past will become looser with the advent of troubled times, or simply disappear completely...
…
Hua Xiong, who led his troops and horses, chased Hua Xiong for more than 20 miles and returned with a rich booty.
Liao Hua, who also led his soldiers and horses to chase them far away, came back with his soldiers and horses.
The smile and excitement on his face had already overflowed and fell to the ground.
"This battle was really enjoyable! Yuan Shao indeed sent many troops to attack Luoyang.
There are far fewer soldiers and horses at Hanoi County's old nest than before. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to assemble the army again and go to attack. We will definitely gain a big harvest!
It is not impossible to even solve the trouble in Luoyang with this!"
On the way back, Hua Xiong met Liao Hua and said to Liao Hua excitedly, and his whole person was full of energy.
Liao Hua also strongly agreed with Hua Xiong's proposal.
After all, if these things can really be accomplished, then the contribution will be extraordinary!
The two of them had already discussed it when they were on the road. When they went back to see the governor, they immediately spoke to the governor about these things...
…
"What?"
"What did you say?!"
Hua Xiong and Liao Hua returned with their troops and horses and a large amount of loot. They were full of ambitions. They wanted to find Liu Cheng's request, organize their troops and horses again, and lead the army to attack. As soon as they returned to Sishui Pass, they
, they received a piece of news that was particularly shocking to them.
Then the two of them didn't care about anything and immediately headed towards the wounded barracks without stopping.
After some cleaning and disinfection outside the wounded barracks, the two extremely shocked and anxious people finally saw Liu Cheng.
At this time, Liu Cheng was already lying on the patient's bed, and the wound on his leg had been sutured and bandaged.
"Lord, how do you feel now?"
"Captain, your injury..."
Liu Cheng smiled and stretched out his hand for the two of them to sit down: "I was careless. When I rushed into the battle, I was not injured, but later, I was injured in such a way. If this matter spreads, I don't think I will be laughed at.
The injury is not serious, but the position is uncomfortable. I'm afraid it will take a while before I can kill the enemy on horseback.
The military morale and momentum will also be affected by this..."
After Liu Cheng said this, he began to ask about the situation of the battle and the casualties of his own soldiers and horses.
Liao Hua Hua Xiong, answered truthfully.
After learning that Liu Cheng was injured and seeing Liu Cheng's condition, Hua Xiong and Liao Hua still did not put forward the plan they had thought of when they were on the road...
