Chapter 33 The Burning of Luoyang
"My lord, this is the secret technique that the Yang clan has collected. Famous Secret Techniques" Sun Zhong held a few rolls of silk silk in his hand, and happily reported the good news to Feng Ye.
Feng Ye took the silk rolls and opened them to look at them. The so-called secret art of celebrities is actually a method of embodimenting the spirit of the crowd. For example, let the soldiers who harvest first believe that the city is impregnable.
When most soldiers are convinced, those who perform the secret art can manifest this spiritual power into an iron wall secret art. It will make the city wall really become an iron wall.
Therefore, if you want to practice the secret art of a celebrity, you must first become famous and become a celebrity, so that what he says will be believed. The greater the fame, the more people believe in him, and the more powerful his secret art will be.
Feng Ye felt that this secret technique was very interesting. is to brag about it first, so that everyone believes that he can do it. With the help of the power of everyone, after the cowhide is realized, it is not bragging.
When one after another, the cowhides blown out have become a reality, and this person has become a celebrity. And it's getting stronger.
"Very good, the next target, let's go to Luoyang, let's pretend to be Hongnong's defenders and go to Luoyang for help. Feng Ye said decisively, he knew that time was running out.
Feng Ye packed all the grain in the grain depot in Hongnong County, as well as the grain stored by the Yang family, which was a large amount of grain.
Over there in the Tiger Prison Pass, Dong Zhuo will soon retire. Once Dong Zhuo withdraws from the army, the pressure on his side will be too great. With 30,000 cavalry, against Dong Zhuo, it was simply wishful thinking.
Zhao Yun took dozens of white horse servants, changed into the clothes of the Yang family, and rushed to Luoyang City with a panicked look.
"Stop, who are you, where did you come from?" the officer guarding the city stopped Zhao Yun and the others and asked.
"General, we are waiting for the Hongnong Yang clan to come to ask for help, and there is a group of thieves who entered Hongnong County yesterday. Zhao Yun said anxiously.
"Oh, you're also here to ask for help? Yesterday, another soldier from the Hongnong side came over to ask for help. The officer nodded, and that corresponded.
Originally, after knowing that there was a large force near Luoyang, he should not have opened the city gate, but these people saw Zhao Yun and others in the name of the Yang family, and the number was not large, so they wanted to sell Hongnong Yang's face, so they said: "Since this is the case, then you can come in!"
As soon as the city gate opened, Zhao Yun rushed up with dozens of white horse servants and firmly controlled the city gate in his hands.
"Kill!" Zhao Yun has a spear like a dragon in his hand, where can the soldiers guarding the door be able to resist it, a peerless general like Zhao Yun?
"The city gate is open, quick, charge!" Feng Ye watched Zhao Yun open the city gate from a distance. Knowing that they would not be able to hold on for long, he hurriedly led people to charge.
"Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand! The sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof!" The soldiers of the White Horse Yicong shouted loudly, and the speed suddenly doubled. The biochemical war horse, which was originally fast, ran at a speed like the wind.
They all knew that their commanders and brothers were desperately defending the city gates, and that a little slower would cause more casualties among their brothers.
"Hahaha, Luoyang, I'm Feng Ye here!" Feng Ye rode his horse into Luoyang amid laughter.
Dong Zhuo's troops left behind in Luoyang were not many, and after the city gate was lost, no one could stop Feng Ye's army.
"Hua Xiong went to the palace and asked about the secret art of the royal family, Zhao Yun went to Hongdu Gate to search for secret art classics, Sun Zhong, you go to Taixue to search. Feng Ye ordered.
Since you came to Luoyang, you naturally can't let go of these scholar officials in the city. Hongnong and the Yang clan have all robbed it, does Feng Ye still need these people's family secret skills? Of course, it is correct to rob them.
This is the essence of the entire Han knowledge, even if Feng Ye doesn't snatch it, maybe it will soon fall into Dong Feifei's hands.
If Dong Feifei didn't pay attention to these secret techniques, maybe these precious classics would be burned by Dong Feifei, a fool.
Feng Ye felt that his robbery at the moment was saving the civilization inheritance of the Great Han, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was particularly great.
"I heard that the great Confucian Cai Yong has a beautiful daughter, if you don't save it, maybe she will be snatched away by the Turks. ”
Feng Ye felt that in order to prevent the noble daughter of the Han Dynasty from falling into the hands of the Turks, he should rob Cai Wenji when he was looting the classics. This is your own responsibility and obligation.
In order to save a talented woman like Cai Wenji from falling into the hands of some vulgar Turks. Even if he was infamy, Feng Ye admitted it.
"Those who know me say I'm worried, and those who don't know me say what I want, are we the kind of lustful people? In order to save Cai Wenji's life, we also admit to being scolded. Grand Duke Feng Ye thought selflessly.
"Alas, since you are going to fall into the infamy of being lustful, why don't you do anything, go to Wang Yun's house, and snatch Diao Chan away.
In order to change the tragic fate of this beautiful girl, just a reputation, don't do it! Feng Ye shook his head and sighed.
Although there are many nursing family members in the families of various senior officials, how are these people the opponents of Feng Ye's elite soldiers?
"Go to Cai Yong's house. Feng Ye instructed the guards beside him.
The great Confucian Cai Yong is very famous, and many people know his mansion, but they are not afraid of not finding it. Moreover, Cai Yong's collection of books is very rich, and there are more than a dozen cars of various classics.
"You robbers, if you want to take my collection of books, you must step over the old man's corpse. An old man stopped in front of a room with open hands and indignation.
"This must be Lord Cai Yongcai, right?" Feng Ye looked at the old man standing in front of the study and asked with a smile.
"Who are you? How dare you come to my house and plunder it? If you take the money from my house, these books are of no use to you, and these books are my life to the old man, please leave them for the old man." Cai Yong said stubbornly.
"Since those books are his order, go, take his daughter for me, and take them away. Feng Ye said unceremoniously. He knows very well that this kind of stubborn old man, it is useless to tell him the big truth, he has more big reason than anyone else.
To convince him that his precious daughter is about to be kidnapped by the Turks, it is definitely the most difficult thing to do. Instead of persuading him, it is better to use the robbery directly.
Give him a show to meet the soldiers, it is unreasonable, and it is the best way to deal with this kind of stubborn old man.
"You!" Cai Yong stretched out his hand and pointed at Feng Ye, unable to say a word angrily, he had lived for such an old age, and he had never met such an unreasonable person.
"These books are for you, and please spare my daughter. "Old man Cai Yong, I can't be tough anymore now.
"I want the books, and I want your daughter. If you are not at ease, you can also follow us. Feng Ye didn't mind kidnapping this great Confucian at all.
Her daughter was taken away, and the classics she had collected for half her life were also snatched away, what could Cai Yong do? Of course, she went with her!
When he arrived at Wang Yun's mansion, Feng Ye was not as polite as Cai Yong, and directly asked the old man to be arrested and asked him about his secret skills and the whereabouts of Diao Chan.
Wang Yun, an old guy, looked unconvinced and angry when he was caught, and Feng Ye didn't be polite to him, and directly let people beat him with black eyes. This Wang Yun is definitely a typical example of an old silver coin.
In just half a day, Hua Xiong, Zhao Yun, and Sun Zhong all came back with dozens of cars of classics, and Feng Ye found a warehouse in the name of selection, and directly collected all these collected classics into the space.
The grain and grass in Luoyang City naturally could not be left to Dong Zhuo, and the palace along the way, as well as the property of the Han courtiers' families, were also looted a lot under Feng Ye's command. Anyway, if Feng Ye didn't grab it, these things would be cheap. Don't rob white, don't rob.
This trip to Luoyang can be described as a full return. Of course, snatched Cai Wenji and Diao Chan, this kind of trivial matter is just a convenient one. The most important thing is the secret arts.
"Let's go, Dong Zhuo has already withdrawn his troops from Tiger Pass. We need to rush back to Youzhou as soon as possible. Feng Ye ordered, Hai Dongqing in the sky had actually been staring at Dong Zhuo's movements all the time.
Feng Ye's army came and went faster, leaving Luoyang City and going directly to Hanoi. The black mountain thief went. Feng Ye naturally wouldn't stay, fought to the death with Dong Zhuo, and then was picked up by the princes' coalition forces. Kill Dong Zhuo, there will be a chance in the future.
At the beginning, outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Bu saw that the situation was not good, and after killing a coalition general, he turned around and left. Although Lu Bu was besieged by more than a dozen generals, if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.
The speed of the Neighing Wind Red Rabbit Horse was not weaker than the biochemical war horse carefully prepared by Feng Ye. The people Lu Bu wants to chase and kill can't escape at all. In turn, if Lu Bu wanted to escape, the coalition generals were powerless to stop him.
A good war horse, for a general, is really more important than a wife, and it can save his life on the battlefield.
Lu Bu's defeat, the tiger prison closed Dong Zhuo's psychology has no bottom. How many elite soldiers are hidden in the alliance of princes? Dong Zhuo's family knows his own affairs, don't look at the 200,000 troops under his command.
But his real henchmen and descendants are less than 100,000 troops, and the rest of the troops are all Luoyang defenders who have been incorporated after entering Luoyang. These soldiers have limited loyalty.
Behind the Tiger Prison Pass is Luoyang, once the coalition army drives to Luoyang City, I am afraid that the hundreds of thousands of original Luoyang defenders will be unstable. Most of these defenders are afraid that they have little loyalty to him.
Li Ru, who was standing beside Dong Zhuo, understood Dong Zhuo's current worries, so he offered him a plan and said: "Xiangguo, now that the coalition is strong, and Lu Bu is newly defeated, it is better to retreat back to Luoyang and move the capital to Chang'an." ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, he was also a general in the army, how could he not understand that Li Ru wanted to clear the field and lengthen the supply line of the coalition army.
There are already many contradictions in the coalition forces, and there is a lot of logistical pressure, and the withdrawal of troops is inevitable.
Just when Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were discussing the need to withdraw from the army, they suddenly received a report from Luoyang that Luoyang had lost.
This is simply a bolt from the blue for Dong Zhuo, Luoyang is his rear, once Luoyang is lost, it means that the day of his defeat is not far away.
"Lord, the large army of the princes' alliance is still under the Tiger Prison Pass, even if Luoyang is lost, it is only a small force, as long as our army returns, we can wipe out the thieves in an instant. Li Ru said comfortingly.
In fact, Luoyang, as the capital of the Han Dynasty, how majestic the city wall was, he knew very well that the men and horses occupying Luoyang, as long as they could hold out for a few days, dragged until the coalition army broke through the Tiger Prison Pass, Dong Zhuo would die.
But at this critical juncture, Dong Zhuo has already messed up, and he can only say things for the better. Dong Zhuo, who was flustered, hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Dong Zhuo immediately left the generals to guard the Tiger Prison, and returned to Luoyang with the army in the starry night, to his relief, the gang of thieves had already left Luoyang after looting the palace and ministers.
This is simply great news for Dong Zhuo, and he also laughed at the thieves for their lack of plans. Then began to make preparations for moving the capital.
Moving the capital is not only about moving the emperor and hundreds of officials, Dong Zhuo is preparing to pack up all the people in the entire Luoyang City.
Before leaving, Li Ru gave Dong Zhuo another idea: "Lord, that thief robbed the grain and grass in Luoyang City, and now there is little grain and grass in the army, and the thief has robbed the officials' family property, and the harvest is very large, and the thieves have robbed it, how can we not rob it? Although those officials have been robbed, there are still many rich families in Luoyang City, and their family property can be confiscated.
There are also many people who are protégés of Yuan Shao and other families, and these people should be exterminated. You will definitely be able to get a huge amount of money and food. It can solve the urgent need. ”
Dong Feifei is also a ruthless person, before leaving, he first raided thousands of rich families in Luoyang City in the name of colluding with the coalition army to exterminate the family.
He also asked Li to urge Guo Yan and the two to relocate the people of Luoyang, and the military discipline under the command of these two people was not strict, and many soldiers plundered women's property along the way, and even set up 3,000 supervision teams, and the people who walked slowly were all hacked to death.
Because he was afraid that some people would hide at home and refuse to leave, Dong Zhuo directly asked people to set fire to Luoyang City. Dong Feifei, who grabbed it and made a fortune, simply let Lu Bu take people to dig up the tombs of the emperors and concubines of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, Dong Zhuo's time also led to many people following suit, the emperor's grave could not be dug up, and there were also the ancestral graves of officials and wealthy businessmen!
Anyway, those rich businessmen were all raided by Dong Zhuo, and if they dig up the ownerless lonely grave, it will be nothing. This time the capital was moved, Dong Zhuojun went up and down, and it can be said that he made a windfall.
From the day Dong Zhuo retreated, hundreds of thousands of coalition troops began to storm Tiger Pass. The Tiger Prison guard was originally an abandoned son left by Dong Zhuo, and after finding that there were no reinforcements, he surrendered directly to the coalition forces.
The fire in Luoyang City was so great that even the Tiger Prison Pass fifty miles away could be seen. The dignified capital of the Han Dynasty was actually set on fire by someone. The majesty of the Han Dynasty also burned into ashes with Dong Feifei's fire.
The princes who saw this scene, the trace of awe of the Han court in their hearts also quietly disappeared. Ambition is like a weed, and it begins to grow wildly.
