Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Dong Zhuo did not wait for Huangfusong who came to support him, but instead waited for the imperial edict.

"General Dong Zhuo of Zhonglang, greedy for meritorious deeds, advanced aggressively, causing loss of troops and loss of generals! He should have been executed, but his life was saved for the time being because he helped Captain Xiaoqi to kill Zhang Jiao. General Lang, escorted back to Beijing."

"The minister leads the decree to thank you!"

Dong Zhuo had a bitter look on his face. He thought he would be able to redeem his crimes, but he did not expect that he would still be unable to escape the pain of prison.

Xiao Huangmen took out the second chapter of the imperial decree and looked at Liu Zhang.

"Lieutenant Liu Zhang of the Xiaoqi School moved to Jizhou and killed countless Yellow Turban rebels, exalting our prestige as a great Han. I also killed the first horn of the Yellow Turban Rebels. I am very relieved. Now Liu Zhang is named Guanneihou, temporarily acting as Dongzhong Lang. Post. Wait for Huangfu Song to go north and attack the rest of the Yellow Turbans together with him."

"The minister leads the decree to thank you."

Liu Zhang picked a look, and the guard quickly took out a bag and handed it to Xiao Huangmen.

Xiao Huangmen immediately beamed with joy, and kept praising Liu Zhang.

"Liu Zhonglang is indeed the pillar of the country, no wonder Mr. Zhang Rang is full of praise for you!"

Liu Zhang chuckled, "You're welcome, the post has been arranged, please go and rest!"

"Thank you Liu Zhonglang, I will take my leave!"

"Congratulations Liu Zhonglang."

Seeing no one around, Dong Zhuo congratulated Liu Zhang with a smile uglier than crying.

"General Dong, don't be sad, the general is a veteran in the battlefield, and he will be reinstated as an official in the future!"

Liu Zhang complimented Dong Zhuo in his mouth, but in his heart he was very contemptuous.

Dong Zhuo must have felt that he did not try his best to intercede for him!

It's good to be alive now, and I'm showing myself a bad face!

If I didn't need you for the cholera court in the future, I wouldn't bother to talk to you.

Dong Zhuo accepted Liu Zhang's false compliment, and pretended to respond generously.

"I am satisfied with my life this time, I dare not ask for more! Liu Zhonglang take care, I will go back to Luoyang to plead guilty!"

Li Ru was quite acceptable to this result, and thanked Liu Zhang with his hand.

"I was lucky enough to survive this time, thank you Liu Zhonglang!"

"By the way, I have sent a letter to Jia Xu. He is a trustworthy person and will definitely come to find the general!"

"Thank you, Mr. Li."

Liu Zhang also bowed his hand and returned the gift. As long as Jia Xu can come to him, it will not be in vain this time.

On the same day, Dong Zhuo was escorted back to Beijing, with only Li Ru and other cronies following him.

The commander-in-chief of more than 30,000 soldiers in Guangzong City became Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang summoned all the generals and announced the appointment of the court in public.

The generals did not raise any objections, and all expressed their obedience.

Liu Zhang was originally a school captain of Xiaoqi, brave and good at fighting, and his reputation spread far and wide.

Liu Zhang didn't want to promote his own people, he knew that this Zhonglang would not last long, and Huangfusong would have to give up his position when Huangfusong came.

"Generals, Liu is only acting as Zhonglang temporarily. After General Huangfu arrives, I will hand over the affairs of the general."

The generals did not expect that Liu Zhang would place his position so upright, without any frivolity of a young man.

"Liu Zhonglang is too humble. The general has experienced many battles and has far-sightedness. I look forward to the general leading us to defeat the rest of the Yellow Turbans! Make meritorious deeds!"

It has to be said that these generals are good at flattering.

After one person finished praising, the others immediately followed up. They all spoke highly of Liu Zhang.

"Report!"

A hurried shout interrupted the crowd, and the soldiers ran in in a panic.

"Master Zhonglang, according to the latest reports, the Yellow Turban thief Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang personally led an army of 200,000 troops to kill Guangzong! The first thief Zhang Bao shouted to crush Guangzong and capture him alive..."

Liu Zhang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did you capture alive? Tell me."

The soldier looked up at Liu Zhang, hesitating and hesitating, not daring to speak.

"Say! I will forgive you!"

"Capture Liu Zhang alive, skin cramps!"

"Bold!"

Dian Wei let out a loud roar, which made the soldiers tremble.

Liu Zhang chuckled and waved to Dian Wei, signaling him not to embarrass his own people.

"This treasure really doesn't have any new words, every time it makes me cramp! Hahaha!"

"Master Zhonglang must not underestimate the enemy! The enemy army is 200,000, nearly ten times our army!"

The generals who praised Liu Zhang just now were all speechless when they heard the 200,000 Yellow Turbans, and their eyes showed fear.

"Ok."

Liu Zhang nodded, of course he would not underestimate the Yellow Turban Army.

"I'm afraid this piece of treasure is coming out of the whole nest, so it's good to get rid of these two at once, so that I don't have to look for them everywhere."

Dian Wei was very excited, he is a natural militant.

"My lord, I let this fellow run away last time, and I must not let him go this time!"

Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Tai Shici asked Liu Zhang for orders.

"My lord, please give me an order! I am willing to fight against the Yellow Turban Army."

Except for Liu Zhang's own general, the rest of the generals looked at them in surprise.

The enemy army is 200,000, and our army is only 30,000! It is difficult to defend the city according to the city, but you still want to take the initiative to attack?

Liu Zhang didn't speak, but began to think seriously.

After all, it is an army of 200,000, where has Liu Zhang seen so many troops!

He is just pretending to be calm, if even he is timid, these generals must be panicked.

Can this treasure have so many people? Liu Zhang didn't believe this number. How many young and strong are there in the Yellow Turban Army?

"When will Huangfu Zhonglang arrive at Guangzong?"

Liu Zhang looked at Huang Zhong. If Huang Fusong could arrive in time, he would not be so stressed.

"Huangfu Zhonglang has not yet crossed the Yellow River, it is expected to take at least twenty days!"

"Well…"

Liu Zhang frowned slightly, it seemed that he could not be counted on. Then he expressed his views on the Yellow Turban Army.

"Although the Yellow Turban Army claims to have 200,000 soldiers, according to my estimation, there are at most 100,000 soldiers capable of fighting. Although our army has only less than 40,000 soldiers, our soldiers are skilled and courageous, and their morale is like a rainbow! With one enemy three, it is more than enough!"

Having said that, the generals still looked worried.

Liu Zhang looked at the cavalry captain, he wanted to integrate the existing troops.

"Our army currently has more than 5,000 cavalry from each school, and now they are combined into one, and I am directly under the Xiaoqi Battalion!"

"promise!"

"Tai Shici, Zhao Yun obeys orders!"

Liu Zhang looked at the two of them, he needed to control the most powerful force in his own hands.

"The end is here!"

"I order the two of you to lead the Xiaoqi Department, rectify the army and horses, and make sure to form combat power in the shortest possible time!"

"Take orders!"

"The lieutenants of the city gates are now preparing defensive equipment, and they must strictly guard Guangzong. Zhang Bao is going out this time, and he must fight quickly! If the protracted period is long, there must be insufficient food and grass. At that time, I will be able to defeat the bandits with all my strength."

"Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Dian Wei stay here, and the rest of the generals should prepare quickly!"

"promise!"
