Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 307
Zhang Ren is very confident in his own force, and feels how difficult it is to assassinate a person.

Zhang Ren didn't feel the danger and pressure until later when he learned that Dong Zhuo was going to be assassinated.

However, the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation, and the higher the risk, the greater the reward.

After weighing it left and right, Zhang Ren felt that this might be an opportunity for a carp to leap over the dragon's gate.

Sure enough, he got a promise in Situ's mansion, after the event was completed, Wang Yun and others would recommend him to be the general of Zhenxi and the captain of the city gate of Luoyang City.

The salary of General Zhenxi is only one level lower than that of Jiuqing, and the captain of the city gate of the capital is a rich man with military power. These two official positions are hundreds of times stronger than the captain of a county that Zhang Ren dreamed of when he was a child.

Although he wholeheartedly seeks an official position, Zhang Ren is not a reckless man without a brain, and he will not do things he is not sure about.

However, the assassination plan formulated by Wang Yun and the three was perfect, and Han Sui was there to assist him. As long as Dong Zhuo was killed with one blow, the remaining Xiliang Army would be led by Han Sui to suppress it.

It was also hearing that Han Sui and his [-] soldiers joined the operation, which made Zhang Ren completely let go of his doubts and anxiety, and finally agreed to the assassination mission.

……

Soon came the day of the Beginning of Autumn.

All the court officials lined up outside Suzaku Gate early that morning.

About half an hour later, the emperor's Luanjia drove out from the back road of the North Palace.

Li Ru, Lieutenant of the Ting, took thousands of soldiers from the Governor's Battalion as guards, and besides the emperor Liu Xie, there was Dong Zhuo, the grand master who had power over the government and the public, in the car.

Sitting in the same hall and traveling in the same car, it is hard to tell who is the real master of the big man, Liu Xie or Dong Zhuo.

It's a pity that all the officials dared not speak out, and could only kneel down and salute when the emperor Luan arrived.

"Everyone is flat!" the emperor said timidly, but his eyes kept watching Dong Zhuo's emotions beside him.

The young emperor is like a child who is afraid of doing wrong things, always worried about being reprimanded by his elders.

Dong Zhuo ignored him, but pointed to Wang Yun and asked, "Is the venue ready, and all the officials here?"

Wang Yun raised his head and replied: "Everything is ready, only Your Majesty... and the Grand Master will go to sacrifice and pray for blessings!"

After Dong Zhuo heard the words, he stopped talking and waved his hand to signal that the team could start. His aura was even more majestic than that of a real emperor.

Luan was in front, followed by all the officials participating in the sacrifice. Seeing that there was no one else around, Dong Zhuo's sharp expression suddenly became discouraged, and he half-lyed down with a tired face.

"Grand Master... Tired?" Emperor Liu Xie asked cautiously.

Dong Zhuo hummed, "Yesterday I worked hard and stayed up half the night. I will wait for my grand master to take a nap for a while, and wait until you come outside the east gate to wake me up!"

The emperor Liu Xie was secretly happy and quickly agreed. It would be a torment for him to ride with Dong Zhuo, but if Dong Zhuo fell asleep on the way, he would be much more relaxed.

Li Ru, who had been guarding the frame all the time, overheard the conversation on the car, thinking that all the beauties who came from Jingzhou were recruited by Dong Zhuo to Yong'an Palace, he couldn't help but sighed a little worried.

"The Grand Master has been working too hard for the past few days. Young people can't sing and sing every night. If there is a mistake, it will be very bad!"

Li Ru's prosperity and wealth all depended on Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo was also at an old age now, so Li Ru had long thought of forming his own army quietly. Once Dong Zhuo returned to the west, he would at least have the strength to protect himself.

Every department in Xiliang is a radish and a pit. It is impossible for Li Ru to gain military power. It just so happens that the newcomer Han Sui has entered his eyes.

From being in charge of guarding the South Gate of Luoyang to transporting grain and grass into Taicang, Liu Yu provided Han Sui with excellent opportunities to make meritorious deeds, and at his suggestion, after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Han Sui would be able to become Jiuqing.

Li Ru is not a person who gives favors without asking for anything in return. If Han Sui wants to take up the post of Tingwei Mansion smoothly, he has to bring his soldiers and horses to swear allegiance to Li Ru.

And Li Ru felt that as long as he had Han Sui's support, he would no longer have to worry about self-protection.

Li Ru was thinking about how to win over and control Han Sui's soldiers and horses by the frame, while Wang Yun and the three behind Luanjia were also quietly chatting about Han Sui.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is scheduled to be held at Qiufeng Pavilion ten miles outside the east gate of Luoyang.

Han Sui is the general in charge of the surrounding security, and he took his soldiers there to set up defense as early as last night.

Under his arrangement early this morning, Zhang Ren, pretending to be a servant, also sneaked into Qiufeng Pavilion in advance.

In the city, Han Sui left 5000 troops to guard the south gate, because [-] private soldiers from the three families of Wang Xun and Yang were hidden there.

Once the news of Dong Zhuo's killing reached the city, the 5000 people would immediately rush into the Xiliang Army camp to suppress the rebels in advance.

It can be said that the success of the entire assassination plan depends entirely on Han Sui!
Therefore, the three of Wang Yun had to think in advance how to take away Han Sui's military power after the incident was completed.

Killing the donkey is the method Wang Yun and the others are best at, and they came up with the assassination plan. They don't want to get rid of Dong Zhuo and come out with Han Sui who holds the military power.

Li Ru, Wang Yun and others have their own ghosts. One side is thinking about how to better win over and control Han Sui for his use, while the other side is thinking about how to weaken Han Sui's military power after the plan succeeds.

It's just that they all regarded Han Sui as a lamb to be slaughtered, but they forgot that Han Sui was a local warlord who caused headaches for the court.

What Han Sui was thinking in his heart may only be known to him!

……

Soon the sacrificial team arrived at the east gate of Luoyang, which was originally guarded by Ma Teng. Yesterday, Li Ru took Dong Zhuo's order and ordered him to take all the soldiers and horses to temporarily garrison fifty miles east of the city.

So at this time, the defense of the east gate was full of Han Sui's troops.

Ten miles out of the east gate is Qiufeng Pavilion, where there are even more guards, no fewer than 2 guards on the inner three floors and the outer three floors.

Among them are Han Sui's 1 horses, and Li Ru's [-] flying bear troops.

What Dong Zhuo trusted most was the troops he had trained by himself. Even though he was satisfied with Han Sui's defense before, he still sent an additional [-] flying bear troops just to be on the safe side.

These circumstances made Wang Yun and others who rushed to Qiufeng Pavilion somewhat unexpected.

In case Dong Zhuo was killed and Han Sui's men failed to control the situation, the lives of the emperor and officials present, including them, would be in danger.

Wang Yun, as the head of all the officials, went to discuss safety issues with the guard before Luanjia entered Qiufeng Pavilion.

Taking advantage of this kung fu, Wang Yun asked in a low voice, "When will there be [-] flying bear troops here?"

Han Sui also sighed helplessly, "Originally, I was fully responsible here, but this morning Li Ru suddenly sent more people, so will our assassination plan continue?"

Wang Yun asked back: "Can General Han Sui be sure to defeat these flying bears?"

Han Sui replied confidently: "Master Situ, don't worry, there are still 5000 troops in the east gate city defense, and they can come to help quickly at that time. I believe that this group of flying bears will not be a worry under the attack!"

The arrow has to be fired, so Wang Yun simply thinks that 5000 people are more and stronger than 1 people!
