Chapter 423

Dong Min, who was robbing the people in Yingchuan, had already found out about the alliance of more than a dozen princes in Shandong, so he quickly retreated, did not dare to fight with the coalition army, and personally went to Luoyang Xiangguo Mansion to report the emergency-βˆˆβ†—,

Dong Zhuo didn't know that he had become a public enemy of the world, and he still drank and feasted every day. After receiving the urgent document, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, facing the powerful power of the Guandong Army, and at the same time, Tanma reported that Niu Fu's 30,000 army was besieged by the Black Mountain thief Chen Zhi's design on the way back to Luoyang and was defeated.

Therefore, the current emergency situation can be seen by a discerning person, if the white wave thief and the black mountain thief join forces, the consequences will be terrifying!

Dong Zhuo wiped his cold sweat and asked the generals: "What should we do?"

The generals also had no good strategy: "The eastern army of the Kwan* is very difficult to fight, so it is better to lead the troops to the west and move the emperor to Chang'an in response to the nursery rhyme." Recently, the nursery rhyme in the market said: There is a Han in the west and a Han in the east. When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. We think about this saying, 'a Han in the west', which should be passed on to Gaozu Wang in Chang'an, the western capital, and 12 emperors, and 'a Han in the east', which should be Guangwuwang in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and now also spread 12 emperors. Fortune is back. The lord moved back to Chang'an, so that he could be safe. ”

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and said: "Haha, if you don't say it, I really can't think of it!"

The next day, Dong Zhuo immediately gathered in the court to discuss the relocation of the capital: "Luoyang, the capital of eastern Han, has been declining for more than 200 years. I see that the prosperity is really in Chang'an, and I want to serve the Son of Heaven to drive the west here. Go back and pack up!"

Yang Biao had already been appointed as Situ at this time, and he refused: "Guanzhong is broken and scattered. Now there is no reason to donate the temple and abandon the imperial mausoleum, for fear that the people will be alarmed. The world is easy to move, but it is difficult to be safe. I hope that the prime minister will supervise. ”

Dong Zhuo was furious: "Does Wen Xian want to block the country's plans?"

Taiwei Huang Wan said: "Yang Situ's words are yes. In the past, Wang Mang usurped and rebelled, and when he began to bare eyebrows, he burned Chang'an, which was all a land of rubble; It is not appropriate to abandon the palace and go to the wasteland today. ”

Dong Zhuo snorted coldly: "The thieves in the Kanto region are rising, and the world is in chaos." Chang'an has the risk of Kuihan; closer to Longyou, wood, stone, bricks, and tiles, Keri can be done, and the palace is built, and it does not take more than a month. You wait and then stop talking nonsense. ”

Sikong Xunshuang also admonished: "If the prime minister wants to move the capital, the people will be in turmoil." ”

Dong Zhuo said angrily: "I plan for the world, how can I pity the small people! Since you want to stay in Luoyang so much, then you should be a small people here, and your official position will naturally be done!

Dong Zhuo felt that he would not bargain at all by talking to this group of people, so he went out and got into the car after speaking, only to see the two of them looking at the car and worshipping, it turned out to be Shangshu Zhou Yu and Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate.

Dong Zhuo asked unhappily, "What's the matter with the two of you?"

Zhou Yu said: "I heard that the prime minister wants to move the capital to Chang'an, so I came to admonish him. Wu Qiong also nodded yes.

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as Dong Zhuo said this, he was furious, he pointed to the noses of the two and said: "I listened to the two of you at the beginning, and kept Yuan Shao;

The relocation of the capital began in the case of a wave of opposition, and Dong Min did not get any bargain in Yingchuan, so he came up with a bad idea at this time, lest the world be chaotic: "There is a shortage of money and food today, and there are many rich households in Luoyang, but they have not entered the government." Let's just say that they are Yuan Shao's disciples, so that they can kill their sect party and steal their family in the name of thieves, and they will get a huge amount of military funds for my use, otherwise it will be a great loss to leave it to the Kwantung Army!"

Dong Zhuo nodded and praised, and immediately sent 5,000 iron horsemen to arrest the rich households in Luoyang, a total of thousands, and planted a big book on the head of the flag "Anti-Ministers and Rebels against the Party", and then beheaded them outside the city to take their money.

However, the result made Dong Zhuo very disappointed, those rich people had been hiding at some point, and all the treasures in the family had disappeared, Dong Zhuo's men and horses searched for a long time, neither grabbed anyone nor money, and everyone came to see Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo was furious, he knew that someone must have done something in secret, so he drove the Son of Heaven Liu Xie to move west, while he stayed in Luoyang, and sent his troops to dig up the tombs below the emperor's tomb and the Gongqing, and confiscate the treasures inside. Finally, he set fire to the Luoyang palace temple, the official mansion, and the home, within 200 miles of Luoyang, the buildings were all destroyed, and the chickens and dogs were not left, Dong Zhuo stayed near Luoyangyuan, and before leaving Chang'an, let the sergeants set fire to the city gates around them, and the north and south palaces were connected by flames;

After loading thousands of cars with gold, beads, satin, and good things, Dong Zhuo looked at Chang'an and left.

Naturally, it was Su Mu's Mo family forces and Shi A's hero building forces that arranged for the evacuation of Luoyang's wealthy households and people, and they dispatched almost all the people who could be dispatched, one was to avenge Dong Zhuo's looting of Yingchuan and destroy the Mo family's forces in Yingchuan, and the other was to prevent Dong Zhuojun from looting Luoyang's wealth in advance, and even Diao Chan participated.

It's just that Diao Chan didn't expect that Dong Zhuo would be so mad that he would rob the dead people's money if he couldn't grab the money of the living, and also set fire to the palaces, temples, mausoleums and residences in Luoyang, thinking that his father-in-law Wang Yun's family property might also be coveted by Dong Zhuo at any time, Diao Chan resolutely said goodbye to the Mo family and went to meet Wang Yun.

Along the way, Lu Bu saw Wang Yun who was also in a hurry, Wang Yun's family was rich, so he hired a carriage, of course, he was also regarded as a rich family in Luoyang by the unwitting Dong Zhuo soldiers, and the carriage was being chased by several soldiers at this moment.

Lu Bu was furious for no reason, clamped his legs tightly around the red rabbit horse, burst into a loud shout, and rushed towards Wang Yun.

"Stop!" The red rabbit horse is worthy of being a thousand miles horse, and it has stopped Wang Yun's car after a while, and the horse pulling the cart was startled by Lu Bu who suddenly appeared, and a person stood up and smashed Lu Bu with two front hooves.

"General, be careful!" cried out Diao Chan.

When Lu Bu heard this, his whole person trembled, slowly opened his hands, held the horse's two front hooves, and then stabilized the carriage in the sigh and envy of the surrounding crowd.

"You're frightened!" Lu Bu looked at Diao Chan with a smile: "You felt sorry for me just now?"

Diao Chan blushed inexplicably: "No!"

Lu Bu stretched out his hand to Diao Chan in the car, and his tone could not be refused: "Yes is yes!"

Diao Chan sat inside angrily: "No is nothing!"

Wang Yun in the car smiled awkwardly, and a good idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

Lu Bu's eyes were not shocked: "Where have you been these days?"

Diao Chan was curious that Lu Bu would ask like this: "Old home!"

At this time, the soldiers who were chasing the carriage just now also stopped and looked at Lu Bu in a daze: "I deserve to die for my crimes!" I don't know that this car is General Lu's woman!"

Diao Chan's eyebrows shrugged suddenly: "You-"

Lu Bu chuckled: "It's good to know, count you as acquaintances! Get out!"

The soldiers immediately and obediently slipped away.

Wang Yun got out of the car and bowed to Lu Bu again: "Thank you General Lu Bu for saving your life!"

Lu Bu's answer was just one sentence: "What I want is not Xie, but this woman!"

Wang Yun was shocked: "Wen Hou, isn't this difficult for a strong man?"

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Diao Chan girl knows martial arts, and these soldiers are just the role of a three-legged cat!"

Diao Chan was also surprised, she looked at Wang Yun with some horror, and the meaning in her eyes couldn't be clearer: this Lu Bu is not simple.

Lu Bu continued: "I don't like to be difficult for a strong man, if she doesn't want to, I'll leave immediately!" After saying that, he had already turned around and walked to get on his horse and leave.

"Wait a minute!" came the voice of Diao Chan from inside the curtain, "I do!"

A smile floated up the corner of Lu Bu's lips.

In the big tent of the coalition army, Yuan Shao was discussing the strategy of marching with everyone, Cao Cao came in from outside, and said with a nervous face: "I just got the news that Dong thief forced the people and hundreds of officials to move the capital to Luoyang, and the army was panicking at this time, it was a good opportunity for us to pursue!"

Yuan Shao was overjoyed, but he was a little uneasy: "Dong thief is scheming, could it be a conspiracy?"

Cao Cao is not happy, my Cao Cao's information will be false? He immediately denied it: "Absolutely not, millions of people in Luoyang are on the road at this time, if we go to pursue, the people will inevitably turn against us for the sake of righteousness, and Dong Zhuo will not be good at that time!"

Yuan Shao was still not at ease, and just wanted to say more, when the soldier hurriedly came in with a letter, Yuan Shao looked at it and vomited blood from his mouth.

Everyone hurriedly woke up and asked what was the matter, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said: "Dong Zhuo was angry with me and raised troops, and he actually killed my uncle's entire family, Dong Zhuo's old thief, I don't share the sky with you!"

"Tough old thief!" The others shouted indignantly!

Cao Cao said: "At the beginning, let's send troops quickly, and we will work together to defeat Dong Zhuo!"

Yuan Shao was embarrassed: "It's a pity that my general Yan Liang, Wen Chou's grain has not yet arrived, and Gao Ran Zhang He is not satisfied with the water and soil, and he can't afford to be sick, I am a general!"

Others also chimed in: "Yes, yes, our general is also seriously ill!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he was obviously making excuses, and couldn't help but be furious: "Just now, I was indignant to kill Dong Thief, and now I want to blame this and that! Have you forgotten what you are doing here?"

Liu Dai laughed at Cao Cao: "Your soldiers are only 10,000, but I have 20,000! Do you know how much they have to eat in a day? Do you know how many days my grain and grass can be eaten?"

Cao Cao looked at Liu Dai in surprise and said, "Since there is no grain and grass, why don't you rush into the army!"

Liu Dai looked at Cao Cao like a fool: "Is Dong Zhuojun so easy to deal with? Ding Yuan is so powerful, isn't he still swallowed up by Dong Zhuo, besides, who of us here can fight that Lu Bu?"

Cao Cao looked at Liu Dai in disbelief: "Liu Gongshan, do you know what you're talking about?"

Liu Dai ignored Cao Cao and said to himself: "Originally, I didn't plan to come, if this little soldier is disabled, how can I suppress the local rebellion when I go back?"

Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao angrily: "Originally, you were the leader of the alliance, you heard what you said just now!"

Yuan Shao shook his head helplessly: "People are different, I can't help what others think!"

Liu Dai added: "Only you Cao Cao are so stupid, who of these princes doesn't want to preserve their strength, I'm just here to see the excitement, and I'll leave when the food is finished!"

Cao Cao shook his head in disappointment: "It's me who is too naΓ―ve, Yuan Shao, I don't care about others, I only listen to your opinion now, I will personally go into battle this time, your Yuan Shao's ability is not below me, is it so unconfident?"

"That's not it," Yuan Shao said, "You also said that I am the leader of the alliance, if I go to war, what if something happens inside?"

Cao Cao didn't expect Yuan Shao to be the same as these people, he was still full of hope: "If the alliance leaders are all dispatched, the morale will definitely be greatly boosted, and it is unknown if you take the opportunity to kill Dong Thief!"

Yuan Shao sighed and said: "One yard is one yard, and I and Dong Zhuo's account will naturally be settled with him in the future, but Meng De don't forget, Dong Zhuoli's son of heaven was originally opposed by all of us, why should we go to lose troops for this young son of heaven?" He was controlled by Dong Zhuo, and he was separated from each other, not to mention that now I don't know if he is still alive, we respect the Han family and not this unjustifiable son of heaven, although King Hongnong was killed by Dong Zhuo, but the Han family has people who can respect the ninety-five, I have discussed with Han Fu in the past few days, and I am ready to set up Liu Yu as the emperor, and set the capital of Yecheng, the people know that the righteousness is on our side, and they will definitely support us!"

Han Fu nodded and said, "Yuan Shao is right!"

Cao Cao was shocked: "No wonder Liu Yu didn't fight Dong Zhuo this time, I think I don't want to see you and be embarrassed!"

Yuan Shao said: "You just came from outside, of course you don't know yet." ”

"Coward!" Cao Cao saw through their faces, "You guys are here to scold Dong Zhuo to death! I will only take my headquarters to pursue Dong Zhuo!" After speaking, he left the big tent without waiting for everyone's reaction.

came out just to meet Wang Kuang, saw Cao Cao's angry face and asked what was the matter, Cao Cao said what had just happened, Wang Kuang also sighed: "Bao Xin is right, Meng De, you are the person who is loyal to the Han family and really thinks about the Han family, although my people are only thousands, I am willing to help you!"

"Okay, I know I'm not fighting alone!" Cao Cao was in a slightly better mood, "Let's go after Dong Zhuo and welcome back the Son of Heaven!"

Seeing Cao Cao and Wang Kuang's men and horses in the coalition camp marching towards Xingyang in a high spirit, Gao Yi on a hillside not far away smiled at Dian Wei and said: "Brother Evil, this is the reason why I don't act with the coalition army, they seem to be monolithic, but in fact they have their own thoughts, even my uncle who is the leader of the alliance can't be an exception, let alone someone else? It seems that I have to pass on the book to my father-in-law and Second Uncle Wen, so that they can slow down the speed of transporting grain! Hungry uncle's men and horses will be good for a few days!"

Dian Wei sighed, but asked suspiciously: "Lord, you are so witty, but why do you want to call your subordinates evil?"

"Well!" Gao Yi smiled.

Dian Wei knew the meaning of Gao Yi's expression - with his own IQ, it was difficult for his lord to explain it to himself.

At this time, a soldier came from behind and knelt behind Gao Yi: "Lord Qiqi, the guerrilla battalion General Liao Hua Feige passed the book, saying that he killed the soldiers sent by Dong Zhuo to chase and kill Taifu Yuan Kuigong's family, and settled Yuan Kuigong's family in Liang County, Yuan Shu Taishou has sent General Sun Jian to respond, but he encountered Dong Zhuo's general Li Meng's department in Yangren, and a big battle has started!"

Gao Yi's spirit was shocked: "Okay, it's really killing two birds with one stone, even I thought that my uncle was killed, I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to spread false information, but we should also act, order General Sun Jian, once Li Meng is defeated, quickly go north to Xingyang, Cao Cao and Wang Kuang have the courage to pursue Dong Zhuo, Xu Rong in Xingyang is not a bone to gnaw on!"

"No!"

At this time, outside the city of Yingchuan Yangren, Sun Jian was listening to the information of his subordinate Huang Gai: "Dong thief burned the palace, robbed the Son of Heaven, and wanted to move the capital to Chang'an, but he himself did not follow, but first sent Wang Yun to Chang'an to make preparations, Dong Zhuo was sitting in the Tiger Prison Pass at this time, and sent Hu Zhen as the chief governor, Lu Bu as the cavalry governor and many other governors, leading 5,000 cavalry to attack us, that Hu Zhen threatened to kill a commander, as a means of purging military discipline, I heard that the other governors hated him very much!"

Sun Jian smiled: "Well, the last time in Liang County, the encounter with Dong Zhuo's general Li Meng and Xu Rong was taken by surprise, most of the soldiers were captured and died miserably, Yingchuan Taishou Li Min was burned alive, and the other soldiers were wrapped in cloth, hung upside down to the ground, and killed with hot oil, so this time I want to let them die as much as they want!"

When everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads.

Cheng Pu asked Sun Jian: "My lord, why don't we participate in the Kwantan Eastern Army Alliance, but commit ourselves to Yuan Shu's command to take on the main force of the southern front of this campaign?"

Sun Jian said: "I am a rough person, there is too much red tape in a crowded place, it's just a waste of my time, we just need to do our part this time, everyone has tightened the strings for me, and played the prestige of our Sun Jiajun!"

"Uh-huh!" thundered thousands of people.

Hu Zhen, the prey that had already been targeted by Sun Jian, arrived at Guangcheng, dozens of miles away from Yangren City, it was already dusk, and the soldiers and horses were tired, so they went down to feed the horses, rested, and prepared to set off at night and attack the city the next morning.

The generals hated Hu Zhen and discussed trying to sabotage his plans.

Zhao Cen said: "The enemy Sun Jian is just a nobody in Jiangdong, what is that Hu Zhen doing this, even if he wins, it won't be interesting!"

Li Meng also said: "Yes, last time he was defeated in Liang County and fled, only dozens of people escaped, if it weren't for that Zu Mao's bad deeds, maybe he would have been able to ask for credit to the lord!"

As he was talking, Hu Zhen didn't know when he had come behind them: "Don't muttering here, this Sun Jian is not an incompetent person, the lord told me, he often wanted to kill the lord when he was in Liangzhou before, and the official position of Changsha Taishou was also to exterminate the Yellow Turban thief, this time he killed Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, and Zhang Shi, the Taishou of Nanyang, and met with Yuan Shu, and was listed as a general of the Broken Captives, leading the history of the Yuzhou Assassin, subordinate Yuan Shu, preparing to attack us north. That time, Changshi was sent back to supervise the military rations, set up outside the east gate of the city, and invited the generals to set up a banquet for Changshi to see him off. Tens of thousands of us suddenly appeared, but this Sun Jian was still carrying out the drinking order, talking and laughing freely, rectifying the trilogy, and ordering them not to act rashly. Later, when there were more of us, Sun Jian got up and slowly led the army into the city, if there was no certain courage, who would be so calm in this situation? Li Meng, you are just lucky!"

Li Meng smiled awkwardly and said, "What Hu Dadu said is very true, but just now."
