Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 4 Breaking the Cauldron Section 6

Chapter 4 Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat Section 6 Da Hei reined in his war horse and turned back to look at the camp. Daxu danced in the wind in the sun, and the sound of hunting.

Xu Rong, Yan Liang, Gao Shun and other generals were stationed outside the Yuanmen, and the soldiers waited for Zhang Yu and Shi Chang to be mute, and hundreds of comrades-in-arms who got along day and night stood on the slope in the distance, standing under the black panther battle flag, watching them leave.

Da Hei thought of his career as a horse in the past few years, remembered the countless dead robes, remembered that he would never see this big panther again, could not see this mighty panther battle flag, and could not see these kind Shangguan and amiable brothers, his heart trembled, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

Da Hei rolled off his horse violently, knelt on the ground, faced the big camp, and respectfully kowtowed three times,

"Adults and brothers, take care." The dumb man reached out and wiped his tear-blurred eyes, suddenly turned around and snatched the panther battle flag from the flag bearer's hand, held it high, and waved it with all his strength, roaring,

"Dahei, live well, live......" The soldiers raised their weapons and shouted wildly,

"Da Hei, live...... " Da Hei's heart trembled, and tears suddenly welled up. With tears in his eyes, he took one last look at the panther flag flying in the air, and finally at his brother who was shouting wildly.

"Driving ......" Da Hei whipped down. The war horse neighed, carrying the big black that couldn't cry silently, carrying the hope for the future, and galloped towards the end of heaven and earth.

Da Hei went home, Jizhou was peaceful, and the general took the Northern Xinjiang army to control Jizhou and control the entire land of Hebei.

This news swept through the entire barracks like a violent storm in an instant. It's coming, we're going home, we're going home soon.

The entire Northern Xinjiang Army was immersed in the excitement and joy of returning home. In the big tent, the generals sat together and talked about the affairs of Jizhou in a few words.

Sima Zhoushan read Li Hong's military orders over and over again several times, and stopped talking. Yan Liang saw that he had something to say,

"Monson, what do you want to say? Is there any secret hidden in the general's military order? ”

"What secrets can there be in the military order?" Zhou Shan said with a smile,

"However, from the general's military order, it seems that the general's judgment of the current situation and his attitude towards the current situation can be seen." Xu Rong looked at him attentively and nodded appreciatively,

Master Zhou continued. Yan Liang took Li Hong's military order from Zhou Shan's hand, and read it carefully, with only a few dozen words, he couldn't see any fame.

Scholars just have a lot of flowers, and it is obviously a simple matter, but it becomes extremely complicated to say this to him.

What a thing. Yan Liang secretly cursed a few words, with a hint of disdain on his face.

"I think the general may have believed that Dong Zhuo was killed." Zhou Shan said solemnly,

"Ladies and gentlemen, please think about it, if Dong Zhuo is killed, the Son of Heaven and the imperial court return to Luoyang, and the general sits in Hebei with 100,000 soldiers to deter the Central Plains, how long can the chaos in the world continue today? Dong Zhuo is dead, what reason do Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Liu Biao have to fight against the Son of Heaven and the imperial court? The Son of Heaven ruled, the prefectures and counties obeyed the imperial court, the war gradually stopped, and the rebellion gradually subsided. The Han Dynasty will quickly restore stability, and millions of living beings will be spared destruction. Zhou Shan looked at the generals in the tent, with a look of respect,

"The benevolence and righteousness of the great general are admirable. I believe that the general will be able to assist your Son of Heaven and revive my great Han Tianwei. Then he waved his hand excitedly and said loudly,

"The tranquility of the society is imminent, and the revitalization of the Han Dynasty is imminent." Yan Liang looked at Zhou Shan in surprise and raised Li Hong's military order,

"You've been watching for a long time and you've come to such a conclusion?" The mountain said,

"Judging from the matter of Dahei, the general's intention is very obvious, he wants to stabilize the society as quickly as possible, so that the world can rest and recuperate."

"If the news of Dong Zhuo's ambush is confirmed, the Northern Xinjiang Army will enter Guanzhong as quickly as possible to protect the Son of Heaven, and at the same time, another part of the Northern Xinjiang Army will be stationed in Luoyang again to ensure that Kanto is not lost." Zhou Shan stood up, pointed to the map on the side of the big tent, and said excitedly,

"As long as the Son of Heaven and the imperial court return to Luoyang, the day of social stability will be soon."

"Do you think that's what the general thinks?" Yan Liang sneered, pointed his big finger at him and counted the dots,

"I think you've read too much and you've broken your brain. If most of the states and counties such as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu think like you, how could the Han Dynasty be like this? How could Jizhou Mu Hanfu be forced to commit suicide? How could Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Liu Biao kill each other? You open your eyes a little wider, take your head to the sun to bask in the sun, if there is such a good thing in the world, I Yan Liang will wake up laughing from sleep. ”

"Zishan ......" Xu Rong looked at him with a calm face and was very dissatisfied,

"Don't talk like that. This speculation of Lord Zhou is very reasonable. Now that the imperial court is in charge of state affairs, starting from saving the Han Dynasty and the common people in the world, the general is very likely to change his strategy. What, do you want to keep fighting until you finish the big man? Yan Liang scoffed,

"This little piano is good, and the drawing is good, but it's just too naΓ―ve, and the books are all read in the stomach." Zhou Shan was furious, and just wanted to ridicule him, and the patrol soldier Pegasus came to report,

"Zhang Ji of Hongnong City sent a messenger to see your lordship." Yan Liang pointed at Zhou Shan and said, "Lord Sima, you go to meet the messenger on my behalf and see what he says." Zhou Shan shook his hands angrily and walked out of the big tent.

Xu Rong galloped out of the camp with a hundred iron horses. Zhang Ji's messenger brought a letter saying that he would go to the camp in Shaancheng and hand it over to Xu Rong, the general of Longxiang.

Xu Rong was in the big tent at the time, and he immediately opened the letter. In the letter, Zhang Ji invited Xu Rong to meet in Hongnong City.

Xu Rong desperately wanted to know what happened in Chang'an and whether Dong Zhuo was still alive. He didn't hesitate and said yes.

Yan Liang and the generals hurriedly stopped, Xu Rong said with a smile, I and these Xiliang generals used to kill the enemy side by side, and they have a deep personal relationship with each other, so there will be no danger, don't worry.

Three miles outside Hongnong City, there is a hill. When Xu Rong arrived here, he was surprised to find that it was not only Zhang Ji who had come to meet, but also Li Dao and Jia Xu.

All three were dressed in mourning clothes and looked sad. Xu Rong sat on the horse, his heart was suffocated, and his face became very ugly.

Dong Zhuo is dead, really dead. In the last three years of his life, he single-handedly provoked the catastrophe of the overthrow of the Han Dynasty and pushed the Han into the abyss of defeat.

Luckily, just as Dahan was about to collapse, he died. The ancestors of the tombs of Chang'an were finally angry, manifested their spirits, and killed the most terrible scourge of the great man.

Xu Rong looked up at the blue sky and let out a long sigh. He did not feel the slightest joy, but on the contrary, great sorrow and pain filled his heart in this moment.

Why? Could it all be Dong Zhuo's fault? What Dahan is doing today is caused by Dong Zhuo? Xu Rong couldn't find the answer, and there was no way to know the answer.

Xu Rong waved his hand to let the guards retreat and greeted him alone. Li Dao, Zhang Ji and Jia Xu stood opposite Xu Rong.

A thousand words, I don't know where to start for a while. Dong Yue rushed to Huayin City to ask for help, Wang Fang was shocked and urgently reported Niu Fu and Duan Xuan.

At this time, they didn't know Dong Zhuo's life and death, and they were so anxious that groups of scouts rushed out of Huayin to inquire about the news in the direction of Chang'an City and Yiwu.

Duan Xuan and Bao Hong led their troops across the Weishui River the next morning and rushed to Huayin. However, they were not here to support, and they suddenly launched an attack on Huayin City.

Dong Yue and Wang Fang were caught off guard, and the city was lost in a blink of an eye. The two fled to Tongguan with their guards and defended to the death.

Niu Fu and Li Dao Zhu of the Taolin Fortress received Dong Yue's urgent report, and they were stupid at that time. Niu Fu hurriedly gathered 10,000 horses and horses, and headed towards Tongguan as fast as possible, preparing to rush to Chang'an City to rescue.

Duan Xuan and Bao Hong's army attacked Tongguan and was blocked, and then was counterattacked by Niu Fu, so they had to retreat to Huayin.

Niu Fu and Dong Yue led the army to kill Huayin. At this time, the imperial decree was sent to the army, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to the world, the Han thief Dong Zhuo was ambushed, and the generals of the Northern Army immediately returned to Beijing to report on their work.

The news of Dong Zhuo's killing suddenly spread throughout the Northern Army in the thunderous roar of the soldiers and civilians in Huayin City, and the soldiers were panicked and the army was in turmoil.

Niu Fu was helpless and ordered the withdrawal of troops from Tongguan. Dong Yue was extremely sad and indignant, scolded Niu Fu, and even drew his sword to face him, asking Niu Fu to attack with his army and kill Chang'an.

Niu Fu and Wang Fang both believed that the situation in Chang'an was unclear now, and the northern Xinjiang army in Guanxi was advancing step by step, in this case, they should first find out the reality of Chang'an, and then contact Hu Zhen of Wuguan and Dong Min of Yiwu to meet in three ways to attack Chang'an together and avenge Dong Zhuo.

Just when the generals were arguing, the imperial decree arrived. The Son of Heaven issued an order to pardon the generals of Xiliang, and urged them to kill Dong Yue and Niu Fu immediately, otherwise, they would be punished for treason.

Niu Fu was shocked and secretly discussed with Wang Fang. Wang Fang suggested that Niu Fu kill Dong Yue and exchange Dong Yue's head for his own life.

Niu Fu then hunted and killed Dong Yue and sent the head to Chang'an, but Chang'an refused to pardon Niu Fu. This matter was immediately known to Li Dao.

Li Dao was furious, and Pegasus rushed to Tongguan and angrily scolded Niu Fu. You idiot, you can't even see this kind of inferior discord in the imperial court?

Can the imperial court let you go, can you let go of our subordinates who have followed Lord Dong for more than 20 years? Don't do such stupid things anymore, immediately gather people and kill Chang'an.

It is easy to kill Chang'an, but once tens of thousands of troops enter the pass, the northern Xinjiang military ranks in Guanxi will chase after them and follow them into the pass, then everyone will be finished.

More importantly, killing Chang'an, that is, openly rebelling, raising the sword to the Son of Heaven and the imperial court, even if he defeats Chang'an in the future and avenges Dong Zhuo, what will the Son of Heaven do?

Do you want the imperial court? If the hussar general takes the opportunity to enter the pass, the lives of his own people will still be in danger, and they will be in danger.

How can I avenge Dong Zhuo and save my life? Niu Fu and Li Wei were at a loss, and hurried back to Taolin to convene the generals to discuss the matter.

"Childish, what are you going to do?" Xu Rong held Li Wei's hand and asked with concern,

"Has the Son of Heaven decreed that you will be pardoned?" Li Wei shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Zilie, if Zhang Wen kills Li Hong, do you say that the eldest princess will issue an order to pardon you?" Even if the eldest princess pardons you, do you dare to go back to Jinyang? Do you dare to leave your army? Xu Rong was shocked and speechless.

"Who killed Master Dong? Who is the mastermind behind this? Do you know the specifics? Li Dao nodded,

"This matter was planned by Lord Situ Wang Yun, and Huangfu Song, Lu Bu, and Duan Xuan all participated. I heard that Huangfu Song also seconded 3,000 Qiang cavalry from outside the Saiwai. ”

"Qiangqi?" Xu Rong frowned and asked in surprise,

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Li Wei said,

"I suspect that someone from Jinyang has also participated in this matter, otherwise how could the Qiang cavalry on the desert go south? Why did Huangfu Song convince the Qiang people to help him kill Lord Dong? Today they can kill Lord Dong, and tomorrow they can kill the general. Li Dao said excitedly,

"Zi Lie, these people are despicable and shameless, and they can do anything. What kind of community and common people, in their eyes, is not as good as a dog and an ant. Xu Rong waved his hand at him,

"I can't believe that Master Dong was killed by Wang Yun. Childish, you talk about it carefully. Li Wei glanced at Jia Xu, who was standing aside.

Jia Xu comprehended, and arched his hand and said, "My lord, the news from Chang'an says ......."

"Chang'an? Who sent you the news in Chang'an? ”

"Liu Ai, Lord Liu."

"He's not dead? What about Tian Yi? Xu Rong hurriedly asked.

"Tian Yi was hacked to death in Weiyang Palace with a knife." Jia Xu said,

"Liu Ai didn't go to Weiyang Palace with Master Taishi, he was in Taishi Mansion at the time. Huangfu Song was responsible for leading the army to attack and kill the Taishi Mansion. He had a deep personal relationship with Liu Ai and secretly hid him in the army. Liu Ai was lucky to save his life. ”

"Shiqi is dead." Xu Rong sighed gloomily, grief-stricken. When he was in Western Xinjiang, he was very good friends with Liu Ai and Tian Yi.

Jia Xu gave a general account of what happened in Chang'an. Lu Bu participated in the mutiny, Xu Rong understood very well, because Lu Bu was bent on avenging Ding Yuan, and this time Lu Bu finally got his wish, but why did Huangfu Song participate in the killing of Dong Zhuo?

Xu Rong didn't understand, and neither did Li Dao, Guo Yan and Jia Xu. They are both martial artists, and they don't have a deep hatred for each other, why did Huangfu Song help Wang Yun and these scholars kill Dong Zhuo?

"What are you going to do?" Xu Rong asked,

"Are you looking for me, are you planning to go to northern Xinjiang to avoid trouble?"

"Zilie, will the general agree?" Li Dao asked nervously.

"If the general doesn't agree, he has to agree." Xu Rong sighed bitterly,

"Can I watch you go to fight Chang'an?" Jump to
