Heroes in the Three Kingdoms - C298
Chen Zhi and Li Xiong’s meeting could naturally not be hidden from the eyes and ears of Liu Yan. Zheng Du suddenly stood up, and said: “Master, now is a good chance! Please use the crime of rebellion to immediately send troops to kill Li Xiong and the others! Thus, he would get rid of the thorn in his side! Even if Fan Li wants to do you harm, without Li Xiong and the others, what use does this tiger with its tail and claws have? ”
Dong Fu could not bear it, and said: “It’s fine to kill them, but let go of their families.” Liu Yan did not answer, and remained silent. After Yu She heard this, he became very excited: “Are you worrying about not coming out after capturing Fan Li’s brother?” Liu Yan did not make his position known, and no one dared to say anything.
No!” said Liu Yan, having made up his mind. No! The generals loyal to Fan Li still have a certain level of power, and I have just replaced Gongsun Zan and other military positions, so I am still not in control of the army. If we recklessly carry out a massacre, everyone will be in danger, and Li Xiong and the others will take advantage of this opportunity!
After Dong Fu thought about it for a while, he also felt that it was reasonable. After all, they had not grasped the power tightly yet, just like bamboo shoots that had not even grown hard enough to actually use it as a weapon. Therefore, he could only give up on killing Fan Li.
Liu Yan laughed sinisterly, then said: “If Gongsun Zan and the others knew that I am going to harm them, they would definitely have something up their sleeves. If we did not take action, it would only be in the bud. Their thoughts were mostly on finding Fan Li to stop us from killing him. That way, we can slowly deal with them and take away their power. ”
Dong Fu and the rest were overjoyed upon hearing that, and spoke in unison, “How wonderful! Wonderful! The Lord is wise! ” Liu Yan laughed proudly. At this moment, a servant was standing outside with something to report. Liu Yan looked at the servant and asked: “What’s the matter?” The servant replied, “My lord, the spies we have found the whereabouts of Lu Zhi. And Li Que, Guo Si and the rest that were sent by Dong Zhuo, have also found Lu Zhi … ”
“What!” Liu Yan stood up in shock and said loudly to Zhang Ren: “Zhang Ren, you and Yin Pu must lead the troops to bring Lu Zhi back to me! “Do you understand?” “Yes!” Zhang Ren and Yin Pu replied in unison before they left to carry out their orders.
Flowers open two, pick one first. Let’s not talk about how Zhang Ren and the others were led to find Lu Zhi under the lead of the spies, let alone Lu Zhi who was completely unaware of the fact that he was being watched by the two forces.
The sect leader said to Lu Zhi: “Master, can we meet again due to fate?” Lu Zhi laughed and said: “If we meet again due to fate, there is a possibility that the God Armor and iron can be combined!” The leader sighed helplessly, “It’s up to fate!”
At this moment, “Ah!” With a sound, the Sect Leader fell into a trap and was immediately hung up. Lu Zhi was shocked silly by the sudden scene. Hu Zhen, Zhao Cen Er and his subordinates appeared together, and said to Lu Zhi: “Minister Lu, long time no see! “We advise you to follow us to see the Grand Preceptor in a daze!” Lu Zhi looked around, and saw that he was surrounded by Dong Zhuo’s men, while Kai Nu’s sect member’s leg was tied up by a rope and could not move an inch, it would be difficult for him to take care of them all by himself! Lu Zhi consciously tightened his grip on his sword.
“Lu Zhi, are you trying to stubbornly resist? Still not giving up? ” Lu Zhi was shocked when he heard this voice, “Guo Si!” And me! Lu Zhi! ” Li Que also appeared! Lu Zhi’s face revealed a terrified expression. He never thought that Dong Zhuo would send out his two favorite generals to capture him.
Li Que shot a glance at his subordinates, and a big sized man who was anxious to win first pounced towards Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi quickly thrust his sword, the big sized man did not expect that Lu Zhi’s sword strike would be so fast, and died from a sword strike while caught off guard.
Several swords attacked towards Lu Zhi at the same time. Lu Zhi turned pale with fright, and quickly dodged, but the person behind him leaped up onto his back and tightly hugged him. Lu Zhi tried his best to get rid of them, but just at this time, a few big sized men rushed forward to subdue Lu Zhi. The Sect Leader who was hung up could do nothing but shout nervously, “Master! “Master!”
At this critical moment, “Oops! “Crap!” Hurried horse hooves sounded and a tiger’s roar could be heard: “Scoundrel, don’t be so arrogant! Minister Lu, I will save you in the future! ” The people who came immediately released an arrow, first they shot at the people who were hugging Lu Zhi, then they released a few arrows, the people who were fixated on Lu Zhi were shocked, and they all released Lu Zhi.
There was a large group of soldiers behind the general. Li Que was startled when he saw that: “Who are you?” The archer shouted loudly: “I am Zhang Ren!” Zhang Ren said as he sheathed his bow and held onto the blade on his horse. Then, he leaped towards the group of enemies with a single leap.
Hu Zhen wanted to snatch the power first, so he waved his blade and charged straight at Lu Zhi, clashing with Lu Zhi. Zhao Cen held his spear and wanted to stop Zhang Ren, but there were even more people who wanted to fight Zhang Ren together with Zhao Cen.
Yin Pu, who was leading a large group of soldiers behind Zhang Ren, did not want Zhang Ren to take all of the credit. He did not even need to measure himself before he was dragged down by the guards, and unexpectedly, Li Que had grabbed his legs. Just as Yin Pu landed below the horse, a few large blades had already landed on his body, instantly, Yin Pu died.
Zhang Ren killed Zhao Cen with one slash. When he saw Yin Pu, he could not help but cry out, “Master Yin!” Zhang Ren’s soldiers all rushed over, Zhang Ren pointed left and right and shouted: Surround them! Kill them all! ”
Li Que and Guo Si looked at each other for a moment, then ran. Following after the two of them, his subordinates also escaped. Zhang Ren’s soldiers’ encirclement did not form, so Li Que and Guo Si naturally escaped easily. Hu Zhen turned and ran, but Lu Zhi quickly caught up and slashed towards his back. With one strike, he destroyed Hu Zhen completely.
Zhang Ren looked at Yin Pu who had been dead for a long time and shook his head helplessly. Master Yin, I will report this to my lord and let my lord properly comfort your family! ” After Zhang Ren said this, he instructed his subordinates to lay down Yin Pu’s corpse, and Zhang Ren then walked over to Lu Zhi’s side. He bowed deeply and said: “Master Shang Shu, my master has heard that you are going to the Jiao Prefecture to see Jiao Prefecture.”
At this time, the sect leader was saved by the soldiers and stood by Lu Zhi’s side. Lu Zhi looked around at the surrounding soldiers holding sharp weapons, and then his gaze landed on Zhang Ren’s body. He thought about how he introduced himself, and asked: “You are Zhang Ren? the top general in Liu Yan’s army? ” Zhang Ren cupped his fists and said respectfully: “This lowly general does not dare for Master Shang Shu to mention it! My lord, please follow me as soon as possible! ” Lu Zhi understood that since Liu Yan had sent so many capable soldiers, he wouldn’t be able to leave either. He could only agree to it.
Lu Zhi followed Zhang Ren and arrived in front of Liu Yan, who then placed his hand on the sword hilt and stood behind Liu Yan. Liu Yan stepped forward and held Lu Zhi’s hands tightly: “Master Lu, it has been many years since we parted ways in the capital! I didn’t expect that we would meet again today. It’s really great! “Haha!”
Lu Zhi stared straight at Liu Yan, and said: “Master, you are a relative of the Han Clan, at that time, you should support the Han Clan! With Fang Jin and Dong Zou in front of us, you won’t forget your enmity, will you, my lord? ” Liu Yan replied seriously: “No! I, Liu Junlang, will first eliminate Dong Zhuo as a soldier, and then head north to pay my respects to His Majesty.
Lu Zhi smiled and nodded, and said: “Master Liu, I was not wrong about you! “I’ve come precisely to offer it to you …” Liu Yan perked up his ears as he focused his mind. Lu Zhi said word by word with force: “God, Devil, Armor, Armor!” What! You really want to give me the Fiendgod Armor? ” Liu Yan was extremely agitated and unable to control his emotions. When everyone heard that the Fiendgod Armor was going to belong to Liu Yan, they all became overjoyed. When Zhang Ren heard the four words “Fiendgod Armor,” he was beyond excited. His eyes were wide open and his mouth was wide open, “Number one in the world, God … The devil … Armor… “Armor!” Although Zhang Ren tried his best to suppress his emotions, it was difficult for him to do so.
“Master!” He did not expect Lu Zhi to do this, so Lu Zhi gave him a meaningful glance to calm him down. Lu Zhi then turned to Liu Yan and said: “Master Liu, the Fiendgod Armor is owned by the famous general who supported me on many occasions! I wonder if sire can … ” Liu Yan confidently patted his chest and asked: “How can I, Liu Junlang, not bleed one last drop for the big sized man?” Lu Zhi warned sternly: “Master Liu, you should know the wonders and dangers of the number one in this world, right?”
Hearing that, Liu Yan’s heart became filled with respect and fear for the Fiendgod Armor, the sweat on his forehead started to drip, but Lu Zhi pretended not to know when he saw it, and was waiting for Liu Yan. Liu Yan’s eyes rolled around, but after calming down, he said: “I will not turn back! Rest assured Master Lu! ”
Lu Zhi made a request, “Master, when I offered my armor, please allow me to wander around the four seas! Sigh! I am old, and can no longer serve the big man! I hope to see you reinvigorating the Han Dynasty in my lifetime! ” Liu Yan seemed to be reluctant to part with him, but after seeing Lu Zhi’s resolute expression, he suddenly thought of something and wondered where the Fiendgod Armor was. Furthermore, Lu Zhi was indeed old, if he stayed any longer, he might still have to take advantage of his age! Liu Yan agreed. He wanted to urge Lu Zhi to get the armor.
[NOTE 1]: Zhang has already decided to send Yin Pu from the river to pay his respects to Master Cao when he heard that Cao Gongzheng is conscripting over the Jingzhou. This was related to Yin Pu’s appearance.
