Li Su was killed by Zhang Xiu, and Lu Bu was defeated by Zhang Xiu, who joined forces with an archer, causing a huge wave in the city.
For a time, the people in Chang'an City were panicked, the military morale was turbulent, and the officials were shaken.
As the leader of this matter, Wang Yun was extremely busy, running around in all directions, trying to stabilize the situation as soon as possible. Lu Bu was in charge of the military power of Chang'an City, and knew that if Chang'an City was breached, his good days would also come to an end, so
Actively deploy defenses, prepare to defend Chang'an and fight a defensive battle with the Xiliang army.
The night is getting darker, and torches have been lit on the tower.
"Crack! Crack!"
The torch crackled and burned, dispelling the darkness.
Lu Bu was wearing armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and holding a Fangtian painted halberd. He was patrolling back and forth on the city tower. Behind him was a young general in his early twenties and eight feet tall.
This general has a face like purple jade, eyes like bright stars, a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows piercing the clouds on his temples, and his bright black eyes showing agility. He wears black armor, an iron helmet on his head, and carries a nine-foot-long sword.
He slowly followed Lu Bu. Seeing that Lu Bu had not spoken, he said: "My lord, we are too passive to sit in Chang'an. It is better to take the initiative and attack the Xiliang army camp at night. This may have a chance to defeat the Xiliang army."
After hearing this, Lu Bu shook his head and said: "Wen Yuan, if there are only ignorant warriors like Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and Li Meng, it would be good to attack the military camp at night, which is enough to win. However, the Xiliang army has Li Ru in charge.
He is a very troublesome person. How could he be unprepared for our little trick of attacking the military camp at night? He might even be ambushed by then, so it won't work."
Wenyuan, the courtesy name of Zhang Liao.
This young general is Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan.
Due to Wang Can's arrival, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Hao Meng and other generals under Lu Bu were all killed, and Gao Shun surrendered to Wang Can, leaving Lu Bu with no soldiers and generals who could support the overall situation. Lu Bu
After gathering the Xiliang soldiers, he took Zhang Liao as his own. Due to Zhang Liao's outstanding talent, he was quickly reused. In addition, Lu Bu had no generals under his command, so Zhang Liao was very highly regarded by Lu Bu.
It is said that things in the world are unpredictable. If Wang Can had not killed the generals under Lu Bu, Zhang Liao would definitely not have been favored by Lu Bu in such a short period of time.
Zhang Liao suddenly took two steps forward. He was only a little distance away from Lu Bu. He cupped his hands and said, "Lord, we..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Bu.
Due to the constraints of Zhang Xiu and Wang Can, Lu Bu knew that he could no longer fight. However, this did not affect Lu Bu. He said in a deep voice: "The city of Chang'an is strong, and the Xiliang army only has more than 50,000 people. If you want to break through Chang'an, you will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse."
Go, we only need to stick to Chang'an. After a long time, the Xiliang army outside the city will retreat without a fight, so why go for a night attack? Well, there is no need to discuss it at this time. Let's send troops to garrison."
After a pause, Lu Bu said again: "Li Ru wants to incite rebel soldiers, but I am guarding the city gate, and no one can open the city gate. Hum, as long as I am in Chang'an City for one day, the Xiliang army will step into Chang'an City."
."
Seeing Lu Bu's stubbornness, Zhang Liao sighed slightly, with a worried look in his eyes.
There is no sun that never sets, and there is no city that can never be conquered. Lu Bu is very powerful, but he cannot guard the city gate for a long time. After all, he is not afraid of thieves stealing, but he is afraid that thieves will miss him.
In a short period of time, the Xiliang Army may not be able to make a breakthrough, but no one can guarantee that the Xiliang Army will always fail.
…
Hero Building, backyard.
After night falls, the hall is brightly lit.
This is the place where Shi A discusses important matters and meets guests. At this time, Shi A was sitting cross-legged, and there were four or five attendants standing in the hall. Shi A looked around at everyone and ordered: "Liu Fu, please hold my name.
I went to see Fu Wan at the palace of Fu Wan, the servant, and asked him to come to the hero building, saying that I had something important to discuss with him."
"promise!"
An attendant came out and shouted back with fists clasped.
Shi A nodded and then ordered: "Liu San, go to Anji General Dong Cheng's house to meet Dong Cheng and invite him to come to the Hero Building to discuss matters."
Liu San cupped his fists and answered, then answered.
In addition to Fu Wan and Dong Cheng, Shi A also invited Changshui captain Zhongji, Zhaoxin general Wu Zilan, and minister Wang Zifu. These officials were all important officials in the imperial court, and they were all invited by Shi A one by one.
Because Shi A was good at dancing, he was able to get in touch with these officials and be able to invite these people.
Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and other important officials in the court were Wang Yun's friends before Wang Yun took control of the government, and they often communicated with each other. However, as Wang Yun took control of the government and became arrogant, these people began to have feelings for Wang Yun.
The opinions gradually broke away from Wang Yun and gradually formed another force in the court to confront Wang Yun.
This is a court struggle. Wherever there are people, there will be fights. Although they cannot influence Wang Yun's decision on major matters, Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and others still have considerable influence.
After Shi'a's order was issued, all the attendants left the Hero Building to inform all officials.
Shi A was the only one left in the hall.
He looked up at the dark night outside the hall, a look of contemplation on his face.
After Li Ru left Chang'an, he was doing things exactly according to Li Ru's plan. Now that the Xiliang army was approaching the city, it had successfully destabilized the city of Chang'an, and the situation in the court had become unstable, which was not conducive to Wang Yun. Therefore,
Shi A also began to take action to build momentum for Li Ru.
The fighting in the court never stopped.
Now that Wang Yun shows the slightest flaw, some people will criticize Wang Yun and want to overthrow Wang Yun. The Xiliang army's attack on the city is a great opportunity for them.
Wang Yun has an upright character, and he did not pay enough attention to the matter of the Xiliang army and was too hasty, which led to today's disaster. This is also an opportunity for Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and other important officials in the court to stand up. As long as Wang can be
If Yun is overthrown, they will have the opportunity to become important figures in the court.
Half an hour later, Dong Cheng arrived at the Hero Building by car.
Shi A heard footsteps coming and quickly stood up to greet them.
Dong Cheng is in his thirties, in his prime. He is tall and thin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and three short beards under his chin. He has the elegant temperament of a scholar and the bravery of a military general. He was originally a general under Niu Fu and belonged to
Since Dong Zhuo and his family were nephews of Empress Dowager Dong, they were not implicated and instead entered the court as officials.
However, Dong Chengguan only worshiped General Anji, but his military power was reduced and he became a general in name only.
Shi A hurriedly greeted him, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to see you, General Dong!"
Dong Zhuo cupped his fists and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "Shi Jianshi, why did you invite me to the Hero Building late at night?" His voice was loud, full of energy, and cheerful.
Shi A waved his hand for Dong Cheng to sit down, and then said: "I invite General Dong to come here late at night. I apologize for disturbing you... Hey, now Li Su has been killed, Lu Bu has been retreated by Zhang Xiu, and the situation in Chang'an is critical. Shi A
I had no choice but to go to General Dong to discuss important matters. General Dong is the nephew of the Queen Mother and has a good family background, so he will definitely be able to give you some advice."
Dong Cheng raised his eyebrows when he heard Shi A's words.
This topic is a very sensitive one!
He had heard today that many eunuchs and maids in the palace who discussed the matter were killed with rods, and Wang Yun also killed several attendants in Situ's house with rods to suppress the matter.
Now that Shi'a has come to find him, isn't this like putting him on the fire to roast?
Just as Dong Cheng was about to refuse, he heard Shi A say: "In addition to General Dong, Shi A also invited Shi Zhongfu Wan, Shi Lang Wang Zifu, Changshui Xiaowei Zhongji, and Zhaoxin General Wu Zilan. All of you gathered together, and also
Let’s discuss how to stabilize the situation as soon as possible to avoid being affected by the war.”
After Dong Zhuo heard this, he stopped talking.
As the saying goes, punishment does not punish the masses. If there are more people, things will be easier to do.
Not long after, the minister Wang Zifu, Changshui captain Zhongji, and Zhaoxin general Wu Zilan also rushed to the hall. The three of them greeted Shi A and Dong Cheng, and after seeing the ceremony, they all sat down in the hall, and the remaining people were the servants Zhong Fu.
over.
The three of them were all confused as to why Shi A invited them late at night.
After asking clearly, they are all thinking about how to deal with the Xiliang Army?
"Tap! Tread!"
Steady footsteps came, and a middle-aged man walked in. The middle-aged man had black hair, a broad forehead, bright eyes, a straight nose, thin lips, and a beautiful beard under his chin. He was wearing black clothes
Wearing a broad-collared shirt, he strode forward with fluttering robes, looking calm and imposing. This man was Shizhong Fuwan. He was the seventh-generation grandson of the Great Situ Fuzhan, and he was titled "Buqihou".
Fu Wan had a good family background and was a very famous official in the dynasty.
When he walked into the hall, several people sitting in the hall stood up to salute. Fu Wan smiled and returned the salute to everyone, and then sat down at the top of the table on the left.
He raised his hands and asked, "Swordsman Shi, why did you bring me here?"
Shi A said succinctly: "For Chang'an!"
When Fu Wan heard this, he raised his brows and showed annoyance on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Shi Jianshi, you are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the court. You invite us to come and talk about romantic matters in private."
It doesn't matter. But when it comes to court affairs, this is already against the rules and regulations. What do you want to do? Do you want us to rebel?"
After Fu finished, his voice was fierce and he yelled loudly.
As soon as he heard Shi'a's words, he knew that it was about the Xiliang Army, so he immediately turned against him.
Shi A had lived in Chang'an for many years and knew the character of officials in the DPRK very well. He knew that this was Fu Wan's test.
He looked serious and said with cupped hands: "Master Fu is joking. Although Shi A is a warrior, he also knows the four words of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country. Chang'an is in chaos and the situation is critical now, so I invite you to discuss important matters. Moreover, Shi A also knows
Wang Situ is loyal to the country and is a loyal minister of the court. However, there is a difference between a loyal minister and a capable minister. Wang Situ has a strong character and cannot tolerate any sand, which is why there is today's chaos."
After Fu finished scolding Shi A, he said that Shi A wanted to kill Wang Yun. However, Shi A named Wang Yun as a loyal minister of the country and a loyal minister in the court. If he could not be killed, he would definitely not rebel.
With just one word, the solemn atmosphere disappeared.
Dong Cheng nodded and asked: "Shi A, you must have considered it before you invited us here. Tell us what you think. If it is feasible, we can make some plans."
Fu Wan sat upright with a serious expression, but a bright light flashed in his eyes.
When it comes to national affairs, Fu Wan can certainly distinguish the importance.
Perhaps Wang Yun was not cautious enough in doing things, but he belonged to the Han Dynasty and could never be killed. If Wang Yun and Lu Bu were to be killed, Fu Wan and the others present would not be able to agree to such a thing. When he heard that Shi
After A's words, he lost his aggressive aura just now, and instead leaned forward slightly, waiting for Shi A to speak.
Shi A cupped his hands and said: "The Xiliang army is so powerful that it is difficult to resist it. Therefore, we can only depose Wang Situ and reduce his authority to appease the Xiliang army. At the same time, we can send people to recruit the Xiliang army to surrender, which may also quell the war."
A flash of light flashed in Fu Wan's eyes, and he suddenly asked: "Shi Jianshi, your method is not bad. Using Wang Situ's official title to calm the anger of the Xiliang army is very good, very good! But, how could you think of this?
What's the solution? Could it be that it was premeditated, or was it a lobbyist of the Xiliang Army?"
One sentence made the atmosphere tense again.
