Zhang Ji tilted his head and looked at Jia Xu. In his impression, this person was usually not good at words. Why did he behave like this in front of the three people today?
"It is said that there used to be a mountain forest, and there was always a tiger sitting in the forest. One day, a black bear appeared and injured the tiger, and it was forced to fall into the king's altar.
However, the black bear was attacked and killed by two jackals. With the support of the jackals, the tiger returned to the throne again.
However, although Tiger regained his former position, he is still very weak now.
The black bear had some wolf subordinates. The tiger was afraid that the wolf would rebel, so he told the wolf that as long as you pull out your fangs and break your claws, I will let you go.
The hungry wolf was panicking because he had lost the protection of the black bear. Hearing what the tiger said, he readily agreed.
As a result, the hungry wolf with its claws broken and its fangs pulled out was easily killed by a few monkeys randomly sent by the tiger.
Are you saying these hungry wolves are a joke?"
After Jia Xu finished telling this story, he stopped talking and glanced at Guo Si, Li Jue and Zhang Ji.
When the three heard this story at first, they felt that the hungry wolves were indeed a bit stupid, but somehow, they suddenly felt that the situation of the hungry wolves was very similar to theirs.
"Jia Xu, do you want to use this story to remind us not to cut off our claws like that hungry wolf, otherwise just three or two monkeys can kill us."
After all, Li Jue reacted a little faster and looked at Jia Xu with a glimmer of doubt in his eyes.
"That's right, I heard people from Chang'an talking about how they wanted to kill all the people in Liangzhou. If the generals disbanded their armies and returned to their hometowns alone, not to mention anything else, just a small pavilion chief would be able to catch you.
Instead of being like a hungry wolf that has lost its claws, it is better to take advantage of the current weakness of the imperial court and lead the army to the west to attack Chang'an to avenge Lord Dong Zhuo. If Chang'an can be captured, then the country will be able to rectify the world. If it fails, lead the army to retreat.
Who can stop it?"
I have to say that Jia Xu is really scheming, and he couldn't be more clear about Chang'an's intentions.
The fundamental reason why the old Xiliang generals can survive until now is because of their large army. If they really disband the army, not only Li Jue and others will die, but even they themselves will not be able to escape the fate of being liquidated.
Jia Xu will never allow such a thing to happen, which is also the fundamental reason for saying those words. It is better to die as a Taoist friend than to die as a poor Taoist.
"What Jia Xu said is true. If he really cuts off his claws and claws, it will be a situation where people are killed by swords and I am a fish. Rather than being like this, it is better to take a chance and lead the troops to attack Chang'an."
Jia Xu already said that they were great, and if they didn't know how to choose, they would be the biggest fools in the world, so Li Jue slapped the table and stood up directly.
"Yes, attack Chang'an."
"Go to Chang'an."
Guo Si and Zhang Ji did the same. They stood up and decided to lead their troops to attack Chang'an.
"Three generals, we have something urgent to do right now."
Now that the three of them have decided to attack Chang'an, Jia Xu must find a way to help the three of them capture Chang'an.
"Jia Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it. We are now both prosperous and deprived. There is no need to hide it."
Li Jue looked at Jia Xu, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Send someone to capture the eunuch who just delivered the order. I think he hasn't gone far yet, and then behead him in front of all the troops to sacrifice the flag."
Jia Xu glanced at the sky in the distance and didn't know what he was thinking.
"If we don't kill the envoy during the battle between the two armies, if we kill the eunuch, others will think that we are acting like villains."
Although Jia Xu said this, Li Jue frowned. Although he was a rough man, he also knew some rules on the battlefield.
"General, the eunuch has spread the news of the imperial edict throughout the entire camp. If you now say that you want to lead troops to counterattack Chang'an, many people will definitely refuse, but it will be different if you capture the eunuch and kill Ji Qi.
Killing the angel is equivalent to slapping the emperor. The entire army is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the Han court. If they want to retreat, they must think about the consequences they may have to endure next.
After killing the eunuch, the general only needs to promise to the soldiers that by taking Chang'an, they will unite the world. If he cannot capture Chang'an, he will plunder the land of the three assistants, rob the women and their belongings, and return to his hometown in the west. This way the military will be ready for the war."
It must be said that Jia Xu's plan was indeed ruthless. In order to ensure the strength to attack Chang'an, he did not hesitate to kill the eunuchs who delivered the order, forcing the entire army to follow them.
"Okay, as Jia Xu said, Zhang Ji, you take five hundred cavalry to capture the old eunuch for me."
"promise."
As expected by Jia Xu, the old eunuch did not go far after delivering the order. He was easily killed by the imperial guards guarded by General Zhang Ji, and then returned to the military camp with the old eunuch.
What happened next was just as Jia Xu said, in front of the entire army, the old eunuch was beheaded and sacrificed to the flag. Then, with Li Jue's promise, the entire army responded and marched westward to Chang'an.
Wang Yun panicked after learning about it and sent people to Meiwu to ask Lu Bu to lead an army to attack Guo Si and others. However, Lu Bu was still angry and lied about his illness and did not send troops. He had no choice but to send Dong Zhuo's old general Hu Zhen.
He led his troops to Xinfeng to meet the enemy,
As a result, Hu Zhen was defeated and led his troops to surrender. Li Jue, Guo Si and others became more popular and went to Chang'an in a mighty manner.
Li Jue and Guo Si were like locusts crossing the border, plundering all the way, without roosters crowing for thousands of miles, and their bones exposed in the wild.
"How to do how to do?"
When he learned that Hu Zhen had been defeated and that Li Jue and Guo Si were aiming directly at Chang'an, Wang Yun was completely panicked.
"Master Shangshu, now we can only put down Li Guo's rebellion by letting Lu Bu lead the troops to attack."
Shi Sunrui looked at Wang Yun and couldn't help but feel depressed. He originally thought that those old Xiliang generals would definitely choose to fight for their lives in order to survive, but who knew that they could defeat Zhu Jun and dare to counterattack Chang'an.
"Last time we called Lu Bu to send troops, he pretended to be sick and refused to go out. Can he come this time?"
Wang Yun also frowned when he heard Shisun Rui's words. He also knew that Lu Bu was the only hope now, but this guy was losing his temper.
"There is nothing you can do about it. You have to go when you have to, otherwise you will have to watch Chang'an fall into the hands of bandits."
Shi Sunrui also sighed, and now they have no choice but to resign themselves to fate.
"Okay, then let's send someone to go to Meiwu for a walk."
Wang Yun was at odds with his generals here, but Li Jue made rapid progress, gathering Dong Zhuo's old troops along the way, and turning around Fan Chou and others. His strength increased greatly, and by the time he reached Chang'an, his army had reached 100,000 men.
Lu Bu led 30,000 troops to Chang'an to set up defenses, but he was still powerless against the army of Li Guo and others.
"Crunch."
The north gate of the city slowly fell, and Lu Bu rode out alone, looking at the rebels in front of him.
"Lu Bu is here, who dares to fight with me?"
Seeing Lu Bu go out alone, the morale of the entire rebel army was stagnant. After all, Lu Bu's name was known to the world, and the only people feared by heroes in troubled times were fierce generals.
