Chapter 2420 The best time comes

As soon as he arrived in Liaoxi County, Youzhou, Lin Mu couldn't wait to review the army.

That's right, the news that he was fine needed to spread in the army. Many conspirators had been making trouble in the National Protection Army and the National Defense Army before, spreading various rumors. The biggest one was that Lin Mu died, fell into a coma, or even deposed.

Before, there were many dead soldiers who attacked and killed the generals of the National Protection Army and the National Defense Army, and the morale of both armies was in a panic.

Therefore, the first time Lin Mu went north to Youzhou, he had to dispel those rumors, stabilize the morale of the army, and then march to the grassland to encircle and kill Zhang Ju.

On a huge temporary platform, Lin Mu looked at the army below with strict military discipline and crowded people, and shouted heroically: "Today, this general came here for no other reason than to bring everyone a banquet."

"Today's banquet is to reward everyone for their perseverance in this bitter cold place."

"Although many soldiers did not come, and were represented by squad leaders, team leaders, etc., this general promised that all soldiers will have a banquet at the same time in other military camps, drinking big bowls of wine and eating big mouthfuls of meat!!!" Lin Mu shouted with full energy.

"Thank you, general! I appreciate you!!!" The soldiers were overjoyed.

"Today's banquet, in addition to rewarding everyone, is also a farewell for the next battle."

"The thief Zhang Ju, disregarding the laws of the Han Dynasty and the ethics of ministers, dared to claim the throne without authorization, especially with the help of the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes and other foreign tribes to claim the throne, which disrupted the Han Dynasty's political system and destiny."

"Those who commit such treason will be punished by heaven. Today, his punishment has come. On behalf of the Dragon Court, this general swears to kill this traitor."

"This general promises that if any soldier can kill Zhang Ju, he will be promoted three levels, rewarded with a million yuan, a million yuan in reputation, a weapon of the highest rank, and a piece of heavenly armor!" Lin Mu shouted loudly.

So the soldiers heard this and roared: "Swear to behead this thief for the general!!!!"

The soldiers were like chicken blood.

In fact, the action of killing Zhang Ju had been brewing for a long time, but because Lin Mu was busy and because the divine capital Luoyang was in chaos, it had not been carried out. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne and everything is renewed, it is time to make a great contribution and congratulate the new emperor on his ascension to the throne!

"Soldiers, drink! Eat meat!!!!" Lin Mu did not say anything long, but went straight to the point.

The soldiers were overjoyed and began to sit down, pick up their bowls, and drink and eat meat directly.

However, Lin Mu did not drink with Shangong and the others. He held the wine bowl and the wine jar, and moved among all the soldiers, clinking glasses with everyone, laughing together, and being very friendly.

The soldiers who had been with Lin Mu for a long time knew that this situation was very common. Lin Mu was very amiable and approachable. What they admired most was that Lin Mu was also very brave. Many generals were ashamed of themselves.

The information that Lin Mu appeared in Youzhou spread as soon as possible. Many rumors were self-defeating.

The first to panic was not someone else, but Zhang Ju.

With the support of the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes in the grassland, he declared himself king and wanted to go south to the Han Dynasty with the Xianbei tribe and establish a separatist regime in Youzhou.

Unfortunately, due to the existence of the National Defense Army and the National Defense Army, he has never been able to do so.

Lin Mu's reputation is even greater than Li Dian's.

Now, the general Lin Mu of the National Defense Army has appeared, and he has also raised a banner and spread the news that he is to eliminate the traitor Zhang Ju!

As soon as this was said, the entire north was instantly panicked.

Many players and aborigines who had just surrendered were a little panicked. There was no other reason, Lin Mu's reputation was too great!

People are really here, why are they still here... Just get some reputation and construction tasks, but don't risk your life.

Look, when Lin Mu was reviewing the troops, many middle and lower-level generals took their people away secretly...

In a side hall in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, Zhang Rang and the other ten attendants were discussing things.

This meeting was of high status. Even Zhao Zhong's adopted son Xu Ying was not qualified to come in and could only wait outside.

"Jian Shuo, are the troops in Xiyuan basically under our control?"

When Emperor Lingdi first went to perform that mission, he entrusted Liu Xie to Jian Shuo, and Jian Shuo originally supported Liu Xie, but Zhang Rang actually compromised with He Jin and Empress Dowager He, which made him extremely dissatisfied.

Before, he wanted to kill He Jin and directly support Liu Xie to become emperor.

Although he was dissatisfied, he was also a core figure in the circle of ten constant servants, and the interests of the circle were his interests. He nodded and said, "It's basically done. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are not a concern. I have secretly hollowed them out."

"I know that you two have always wanted to support Prince Xie as the emperor. He is young and ignorant and easy to control. But there are shackles in the palace and the Dragon Court after all." Zhang Rang looked at Jian Shuo, whose face changed, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes, and he said meaningfully.

"Everyone, I heard that a group of evil bandits appeared in Mengjin and other places, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. They even occupied the land and wanted to develop. Butcher He Jin also asked Queen Mother He to invite the Bingzhou army to surround and kill these bandits." Zhao Zhong changed the subject.

"The drunkard's intention is not to drink. They want to summon foreign troops to enter the capital. The people they are targeting are not evil bandits, but us!!!" Zhang Rang was very vigilant and immediately thought of the key.

Now the sword and axe soldiers of the imperial army are all under their control, and the eight major lieutenant armies of Xiyuan are also basically under their control. He Jin's army is simply incomparable to them. Once the rebellion begins, it will definitely fail.

So we need foreign aid.

"Humph... If Lin Mu knew the general situation, he would have let the National Defense Army and the National Defense Army go south earlier. Even if they just came to the border of Sili, they could have deterred them. They actually directly rejected us and refused to pay tribute. They are also traitors!" Guo Sheng snorted coldly.

"Two of the things discussed today are them." Zhang Rang said slowly.

"Brother He Jin is already anxious. However, he may not risk the world's disapproval and directly summon foreign troops to the capital. He will only use trickery to deceive. We just need to not do what he wants." Zhao Zhong said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Since there are rebels, why not let the Central Army Captain and the General Army Captain go out to encircle and suppress the evil thieves?" Sun Zhang suggested.

"No!" At this, Song Dian immediately stood up to refute.

"I mean, let the Central Army Captain Yuan Shao go. General Army Captain Cao Cao... and us..." Song Dian said meaningfully.

"One army is enough!"

"Yes, then just send one army." Others echoed.

Obviously, Cao Cao's connections are also among the Ten Eunuchs!

Afterwards, the Ten Eunuchs continued to discuss "national affairs".

...

After drinking with the soldiers and enjoying the banquet, Lin Mu asked the soldiers to rest for two days. After the third day, they set out to enter the grassland.

And in this process, something took a turn for the better.

An urgent report was sent to Youzhou and to Lin Mu.

Take a look at the book forum without any mistakes!

After reading the urgent report, Lin Mu was overjoyed: "I didn't expect it to be like this! God-given opportunity!!!"

"Lord, the timing is right!!!" Cui Wu was also overjoyed after reading the military report.

"I didn't expect Ding Yuan to send Gao Shun to do such a thing. It's a pity." Lin Mu sighed.

"Lord, Gao Shun is not valued in Ding Yuan's army. He has been applying for resources to train new recruits, but unfortunately he was rejected by Ding Yuan. Because they really don't have much resources and money for Gao Shun to build an army." Cui Wu said faintly.

Don't look at Lin Mu's Great Wilderness Territory with so many troops, as if training troops is easy. In fact, it is very difficult.

Resources, money and soldiers are all indispensable.

Lin Mu was able to pull up such a strong military force so quickly, in addition to the convenience of the generals of Weiguo and Zhengdong, there is also looting!

That's right, it's looting!

If it's just relying on developing the territory and Xu Bao's chamber of commerce, it's impossible to raise so many soldiers.

Lin Mu took advantage of his advantages and made money through various channels to meet his consumption.

But Ding Yuan, Lu Bu, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others didn't have those channels at all. Just Xu Bao's chamber of commerce has crushed them.

They basically rely on the support of the family and basic taxes to maintain their expenses. Before, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others didn't have spare money to expand the army, and later they accumulated some capital after going out with Lin Mu.

Therefore, the troops and horses that Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others commanded before were all Ding Yuan's troops and horses.

For example, Ding Yuan's army is equivalent to the Qingyang Legion, and Ding Yuan is equivalent to Yu Jin. Under his command, there are several generals, one of whom is named Zhang Yang, who is Ding Yuan's confidant. After that, it's Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, then Wei Xu Hou Cheng, and then Gao Shun.

In other words, Gao Shun is just a military marquis-level figure under Ding Yuan's account.

It is true that he values ​​Gao Shun, and he brought him to many important occasions. It is also true that he does not value him, because there is no resource to train Gao Shun's exclusive army, that is, the super army that makes people tremble.

A good cook without rice cannot cook! ! !

"Let's go to Mengjin!" Lin Mu said in a sonorous and powerful voice.

"My lord, do we want to enter Sili? Otherwise, let Gong Tu go. He has met Gao Shun and drank tea with him several times." Cui Wu said anxiously.

Gao Shun is not good at drinking. Even though Dian Wei invited him many times, he was rejected. Later, he found out about Gao Shun's hobbies and could only invite him to drink tea. Good guy, because they had met in Bingzhou to resist foreign races, Gao Shun did not refuse.

"No... This time, I want to use the relationship between Gao Jin and Gao Hai to completely regain Gao Shun!!!" Lin Mu said in a serious tone.

After some understanding, Gao Shun was not completely under Lu Bu's command at the moment, that is to say, Gao Shun was not one of Lu Bu's eight great generals.

The reason why he was loyal to follow was nothing more than to resist the alien race.

Lin Mu and others had also tried to capture Gao Shun before, and the most direct and likely ones were Gao Jin and Gao Hai.

Lin Mu had never thought that this Gao family and that Gao family were actually from the same lineage!

When Lin Mu heard the news, he thought it was one of the legacies left to him by Long Chu.

After that, he asked the Night Shadow Legion and Dian Wei to pay attention to Gao Shun and get close to him.

Lin Mu knew that if he wanted to recapture Gao Shun, he had to hurry up. He had a hunch that if he really missed this time point, it might be extremely difficult to recruit Gao Shun!

After that, Lin Mu took Cui Wu and others to quickly leave Youzhou and rush to Sili.

Gao Shun was in Sili at the moment, and was carrying out an action that made him unwilling. (End of this chapter)
