Chapter 9 City Gate Incident
Chen Dao's words attracted Liu Cheng's attention. He remembered the relevant records in previous history books. Yuan Shao was indeed a narrow-minded person, afraid that he would wait for an opportunity to take revenge. Even if this person did not wait for an opportunity to take revenge, he and Yuan Shao were destined not to become friends. This guy thought that his family had four generations and three officials, so he ignored others. He could not be friends and could only become enemies.
Liu Cheng was thinking about his thoughts, but he did not notice that he had arrived at Pingcheng Gate with his troops. Pingcheng Gate is the south gate of Nangong, and outside the city gate are Taixue, Mingtang, Lingtai and Piyong.
"Stop, which army are you?" There were some Xiliang soldiers guarding the gate standing at the gate of Heisei Gate. A Xiliang general in his thirties held the hilt of the sword in his hand and stopped Liu Cheng and the soldiers behind him. The man had a fat face, was not tall, but was extremely strong, and had a fierce look on his face.
Liu Cheng was awakened by this voice and came back to his senses. He looked at the person and said calmly: "I am the new Yulin Central Army General Liu Cheng, who is the one who can do it?"
The general of Xiliang put his hands on his hips and said, "I am the minister of the military officer Dong Huang, who is ordered to take charge of all the affairs of the imperial guards. Liu Cheng, what are your plans to bring these many soldiers to the palace?"
Pan Yin, the eunuch, was well-informed. He whispered in Liu Cheng's ear: "This Dong Huang is Dong Zhuo's nephew! At the court meeting this morning, Dong Zhuo recommended several official positions for several officials and generals under him. Dong Huang was one of them and was appointed as the attendant by His Majesty, but His Majesty did not say that he would let him take charge of the affairs of the imperial army. This was mostly due to Dong Zhuo's instructions!"
Liu Cheng knew that Dong Zhuo had only a few thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, and he could only gain the right to speak by controlling the palace to threaten the emperor and the queen mother.
He bowed to the palace and sneered: "I have never heard of the minister who can control the affairs of the imperial military! I wonder whose order General Dong has obeyed?"
Dong Huang looked upside down and said proudly: "Of course, I was ordered by my uncle. A certain family only followed my uncle's order. The other people were as far away as they could!"
Liu Cheng suddenly felt that Dong Huang seemed a little cute and said, "General Dong, look, even if you have followed your uncle's order to manage the affairs of the imperial army, my Yulin Army is not yours, so you can't control my Yulin Army. I led the army into the palace to serve as a guard and serve as a servant, and I also asked General Dong to let go!"
Dong Huang waved his hand: "No, my uncle can't allow any soldiers to enter the palace!"
Liu Cheng was stunned, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and asked, "Then I ask you, is your uncle a great official or the emperor's great official?"
Dong Huang didn't think about it and immediately replied: "Then you have to ask, of course it's the emperor's official position!"
"Since it is the emperor's official position, should your uncle listen to the emperor?"
Dong Huang touched his head: "It seems!"
"Will it be over? Your uncle has to listen to the emperor. The emperor said that I would lead troops in and serve as a guard and attendant. Your uncle would definitely not object, right? Okay, okay, get out of here. If you delay my work, the emperor will blame you. Your uncle will definitely be scolded. Once your uncle is scolded, he will definitely be in a bad mood. He will definitely have to vent his anger on you. Do you think you are unlucky?"
"Oh, oh, oh!" Dong Huang nodded repeatedly and stepped aside.
Pan Yin, Zhao Rui, Lu Weihuang, Xia Chaozong, Liang Chengyi, Chen Dao and others were all confused when they watched this scene. Seeing Liu Cheng struck a horse into the imperial city, they all followed behind stupidly.
"Stop!" A heroic Xiliang general in his twenties rushed over to attack a horse. The man held a tiger-headed gold spear and blocked Liu Cheng's way when half of his troops had not entered the imperial city.
Liu Cheng couldn't help but curse, these two days are really unfavorable, and he was blocked three times in less than an hour! He looked at the heroic general and asked, "This general, Liu Cheng, the General of the Yulin Central Army, was ordered to lead his army into the palace to serve as a guard and guard the emperor, why should the general stop him?"
The heroic general opposite shouted: "Without Lord Dong's order, no army or horse will be allowed to enter the palace. If you come, surrounded them!"
A large number of soldiers inside and outside the city gate rushed over after hearing the man's order. Liu Cheng looked at the man with a gloomy face and said, "Is the general going to disobey the order?"
The general waved his tiger-headed gold spear in his hand: "Zhang Xiu is just a small army Sima. If all the people with higher official positions than me can order me above the level, wouldn't I be at a loss? Wouldn't the army be in chaos? General Liu can lead his army into the city, but he must have the order from my uncle General Zhang Ji, otherwise he will not be able to obey his order!"
Liu Cheng suddenly felt awe-inspiring and said, "Sima Zhang is indeed very human. Liu admires it very much, but today Liu must obey His Majesty's orders and lead his army into the imperial city no matter what. Since Sima Zhang insists on refusing to let go, we can only do one game! Liu once heard that Sima Zhang is known as the "King of the North Gun". There are few opponents under a tiger-headed gold spear. Today we can learn the tricks!"
"Hahahaha... OK! I also heard that General Liu killed Zhang Rang's minions at the critical moment yesterday and saved His Majesty and the Empress Dowager. He must be a master of martial arts. He was about to have a good fight with the general, please!"
"General!" At this time, Chen Daoce stepped forward and said to Liu Cheng: "Bizhi is also known to the King of Beidi Guns Zhang Sima for a long time. He wishes that he could meet and ask for advice. He also asked the general to give this opportunity to Baizhi so that Baizhi can get his wish!"
Liu Cheng looked at Chen Dao, then looked at Zhang Xiu, nodded and said, "Okay, be careful!"
"Don't worry, General!" Chen Dao said, clasping his fists at Zhang Xiu and said, "Zhang Sima, under General Liu's army, please give me advice!"
When Zhang Xiu saw Chen Dao also used a big gun, he said, "You also use a gun? It seems that his gun must be extraordinary, please!"
"Ha!" The two shouted loudly at the same time, and rushed forward to fight together. For a moment, the sound of tingling weapons kept spreading.
These two are now in their prime and their martial arts are almost at their peak. Chen Dao's performance surprised Liu Cheng. He originally planned to let Chen Dao test Zhang Xiu's combat power, but when Chen Dao could not hold on, he would take action again, but unexpectedly, Chen Dao's martial arts were much higher than he thought. He did not do his best in the previous selection competitions, and at this time he was not at all inferior to Zhang Xiu.
After a cup of tea, the two had fought for more than a hundred rounds, but they didn't decide the outcome, and no one was at a disadvantage.
Pan Yin was a little anxious and whispered to Liu Cheng: "General, you can't delay any more. If Dong Zhuo receives the news, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the city, and Dong Zhuo may swallow these troops!"
Liu Cheng looked back and saw that half of the troops had not come in outside the city. If Dong Zhuo received the news, he would just surround him at the city gate, then he would be really told by Pan Yin.
At this time, Liu Cheng saw Dong Huang being squeezed out from the city gate with a few Xiliang soldiers to see what happened. He moved his heart and immediately ordered Zhao Rui and Lu Weihuang: "You two bring a few people to catch Dong Huang. We threaten Zhang Xiu with Dong Huang's life and force him to let him go. Soon, if it is late, it will change!"
Zhao Rui looked cautious by nature, while Lu Weihuang was a more obedient and honest person, and had no opinion. After Liu Cheng's order, the two of them immediately took a few over and surrounded Dong Huang and others. Several Western Liang soldiers were kicked to the ground. Under the joint attack of the two, Dong Huang was soon crossed by Lu Weihuang with a sword on his neck and was taken to Liu Cheng.
Dong Huang shouted, "Liu Cheng, why are you trying to touch me? Let me go quickly, otherwise my uncle will definitely not let you go!"
