Volume 1, Chapter 252, Luoyang Scorched Earth

Next chapter

Under the dark night sky, bursts of smoke and dust drifted all over the sky, the flames soared into the sky, and the remnants of rotten wood were scattered everywhere.

What remains is a piece of rubble and scorched earth, from the small branches that still have carved beams and paintings, Zhao Hao can vaguely trace the prosperity and magnificence of Luoyang City in the past.

Until three days ago, the city of Luoyang was a majestic and vast city, the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the capital of the Han Empire, and the center of power of the entire empire.

How many magnificent palaces, exquisite pavilions, and bustling street houses have become scorched because of Dong Zhuo's fire.

At this time, Zhao Hao was standing on the tall city wall of Luoyang City, looking down at the city that had just suffered a catastrophe in front of him.

Even if Zhao Hao didn't come to pay homage or mourn at the moment, in his heart, he still unconsciously felt a little lonely and regretful.

The former Afang Palace and today's Luoyang City were all destroyed because of some people's selfish desires.

How many Li people, skilled craftsmen, spent a lot of time and energy, and the crystallization that came out of the convergence was only a pile of scorched earth in the end.

If future generations want to pay respects, they can only stand on the ruins that have long passed over time and turned into loess to remember, or they can only remember the glory of the past through the ancient books, between the lines, and that little bit of text description.

"I don't like this scene very much, it seems that Dong Zhuo must die, otherwise it will be difficult to dispel my depression. ”

Zhao Hao stood on the city wall at this moment, looked back at the sky in the distance, the little stars and the bright and vast Milky Way, and looked up at the dark sky above his head at this time.

After three days and three nights of fire, Luoyang City at this time has turned into a piece of charcoal, except for a few scattered palaces and residences that have not been affected, it is difficult to see the prosperity of the past.

A large area of black smoke swirled in the air, even if it was blown by the wind for three whole days, it was still unwilling to disperse, as if waiting for a baptism.

However, at this time, Luoyang City, after experiencing a catastrophe, is not unattended on its wreckage.

In addition to a sporadic group of surviving civilians, weeping mournfully on the wreckage of their homeland, teams of soldiers and armor are patrolling here, looking for them.

Zhao Hao's gaze passed through the dark night sky, and looked at the deepest part of the scorched smoke, which was still standing majestically there.

As far as the eye could see, groups of soldiers were searching, looting.

After Dong Zhuo took away most of the belongings here and destroyed it with a fire, he was still looting the remaining value.

Every room, every inch of land was the target of their search, and some of the scattered jewels and silk were their targets.

Suddenly, Zhao Hao's eyes froze, and his gaze stayed in the distance, a place where people were buzzing.

It was originally a very ordinary courtyard, which was very inconspicuous in the palace, surrounded by courtyard walls, and the houses had been scorched, and the plants had turned scorched and withered to the ground because of the fire.

A very ordinary round well was located there, but there were many people gathering and laughing all around.

Some people seemed to be insane, laughing all the time, opening their mouths, squinting their eyes when they laughed, and tears flickering.

Some people's faces are excited, as if they have encountered the most joyful thing in their lives.

Some people were kneeling down, with flattery and respect on their faces, and they were shouting something loudly, and even the soldiers around them were excited.

Others knelt on one leg with anticipation in their expressions, their hands raised in the air, holding an object in their hands.

Square, crystal clear, carved with nine dragons, is a wide jade seal!

Even if it was thousands of meters away at this time, Zhao Hao could vaguely feel the extraordinaryness of this thing.

Under the observation of the eyes of vain, there seemed to be a golden dragon qi rising above and below his body, solemn and solemn, and one of the corners seemed to be missing a piece, and it was made up with gold.

"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!

"Brush!", after Zhao Hao confirmed the target, the whole person no longer hesitated for half a minute, and disappeared in place in an instant!

"Hahahahaha! Father! That Dong Zhuo looted the gold and silver treasures in the entire Han Imperial Palace, and the emperor was the only one who didn't take this thing away!

"Yes, my lord, this is a gift from heaven!"

"What a good omen!"

"The lord has won this jade seal of the country! In the future, he will be the leader of the universe! Sweep the eight wildernesses! Achieve the dignity of the co-lord of the world!"

"The lord is blessed! To get this jade seal of the country! He must be the face of the emperor! He will become the son of heaven one day!"

In the past, Emperor Qin suppressed the sea and swept through the six countries! In the land of the Central Plains, Prime Minister Li Si personally wrote this jade seal of the country, and was ordered by the heavens to live forever!

As a result, Emperor Qin died violently, but I didn't expect that only in the second life, Qin was overthrown by the world's heroes, and this and the family was obtained by my Han Emperor Gaozu and was set as the jade seal of the country!

It has been passed down for more than 400 years! I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of my Sun Jian, good!

"With this heirloom treasure, my grandson's family will prosper in the future!"

"In the future, the Lord will be able to accomplish great things!

"This time there must be heaven favoring me, which means that my lord's merit is immeasurable!

"I don't think so, the jade seal of the country, although it is a token held by the royal dynasties, and it is in charge of the world, but for your Jiangdong Sun family, it is a great disaster, which will bring ruin to you! With the feng shui of your Sun family, I am afraid that I can't control this thing, I think it is better to throw it out as soon as possible. ”

"What kind of person! Sneakily hiding in the shadows! Actually came out with such a mournful word to curse my Jiangdong Sun family! Come on! Take it down for me!"

At this time, Zhao Hao had already come to the ordinary royal upper courtyard, standing on the courtyard wall, silently, looking down at the excited group of people below.

Listening to their words of constantly singing praises and complimenting the horses to the point that they were almost out of control, Zhao Hao couldn't help it, and later took a sentence.

As the saying goes, loyalty is against the ear, Zhao Hao is telling the truth at this time, although it is not very good, but the purpose is also for the good of the other party.

According to the normal progress of the plot, after Sun Jian got this heirloom jade seal, he would take advantage of the old injury to say goodbye to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others, intending to keep a low profile and return to his hometown in Jiangdong.

However, at this moment, there are many people in this courtyard, and the secret that He Shibi was obtained by him must not be able to be kept, and afterwards, it is true that the two Yuan brothers got the news and asked them what they wanted at the farewell banquet.

And because of this, the sword soldiers were used, and there was a conflict.

In the end, although Sun Jian kept the jade seal of the country, he also offended Yuan Shao, and the two brothers of Yuan Shu became a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the other princes of the alliance.

The mighty eighteen princes of the Eighteen Roads, the heroic deeds of Dong Zhuo also fell apart, and they did not accept the ambitions of the past.

On the way back from the south, almost no one was willing to accept or treat them well, so the journey was difficult, and finally Sun Jian and his entourage, when they reached the boundary of Jingzhou Taishou Liu Biao, took a boat from the Yangtze River waterway.

As a result, Liu Biao was ordered by Yuan Shao to set up an ambush on the Yangtze River, with thousands of arrows fired at the same time, and blocked the road with huge stones at the bottom of the Yangtze River.

Sun Jian, who is a masterpiece of a generation, was killed by random arrows on the spot, and even the body was brought back to Jingzhou by Cai Mao and others afterwards.

If it weren't for his young son Sun Quan, who was young and heroic, he was really extraordinary, and went to Jingzhou alone to sue for peace, and finally persuaded Liu Biao with a desire for peace, and asked for his body back by the way.

Sun Jian may not even be able to return to his hometown and be buried in his homeland.

Later, Sun Ce, the son of Sun Jian, seemed to have woken up, took this piece of jade seal to Yuan Shu, and exchanged it for 2,000 elite soldiers, which led to the feat of establishing the foundation of Jiangdong in the future.

"Alas, at this time, the alliance of the princes of the Eighteenth Route should be coming to an end, Liu Guanzhang has finally come together, if you want to separate them, it is already very difficult, and the chance of being subdued by me is even slimmer.

The battle of Tiger Prison Pass was also over, and the three brothers became famous all over the world, although Liu Bei claimed to be the queen of the Han Emperor, but no one could confirm this statement.

I don't know if the big-eared guy is a soft image of crying all day long in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, or in some biographical movies, the kind of scheming, hypocritical and righteous people!"

There were many thoughts in his heart, but in reality, it was just a moment, at this time, Zhao Hao looked down at the many famous Jiangdong generals in the courtyard, as well as the dense armor soldiers who were in batch armor.

The corners of his mouth bent, the spear in his hand trembled, and the whole person rushed down in an instant!
