Chapter 65: Under Siege

Southern Army, into Luoyang.

The security in the city has obviously improved since that day, and the petty thieves who usually walk the streets and alleys are gone, and it is rumored that this is related to the Nanyang celebrity Xu You Xu Ziyuan who bought the assassin to assassinate the auxiliary general Ma Yue. Therefore, the southern army was sent into the city.

People of insight in Luoyang City have sighed that the general of the auxiliary country has lost all his family in this battle, and I am afraid that the sun will be weakened.

In this world, I am afraid that it will not be long before I go around the horse, and I will have to be replaced by another candidate.

The rumors in the market have nothing to do with Ma Yue's itching, and when he returned to Luoyang, he first met His Majesty, and the little emperor Liu Xie met him in the Xidi hometown, along with the old Shangshu Lu Zhi.

"The juniors meet Lu Shangshu." Ma Yue gave up his hand and met Lu Zhi on the royal road at the gate of Xiyuan, although he was stronger than this old man who worked hard for the Han in terms of prestige, official position, and meritorious service, but he did not dare to violate the etiquette slightly, seeing Lu Zhi get out of the car, Ma Yue hurriedly helped Lu Zhi down, and said with a smile: "The old man is fine." ”

Lu Zhi waved his hand to signal that Ma Yue didn't need to be polite, and arched his hand and said, "Old and frail, it is useless. ”

Lu Zhi's story ended during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and in the next few years, he was no longer the general who commanded thousands of armies with a loud voice, but an old man with a strange height and a huge amount of food, his temples were all pale, and where could he still see the heroic and good fighting of the year.

Seeing the old general's heroic twilight, Ma Yue hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Lu Shangshu is in charge of Shangshutai, teaching His Majesty Wen Taowu strategy, how can it be said that it is useless, Mr. is too modest." ”

Lu Zhi shook his head with a smile, did not speak again, but walked into the West Mansion with the support of Ma Yue, the old Shangshu was not forced to do anything about it, such as today's chaos, there are constant soldiers in various places, Shangshutai has almost no affairs to speak of, letters from all over the country cannot be sent to Luoyang, and Luoyang's decrees are not accessible to the locality, and the places that the imperial court can directly control have fallen apart with the division of the Qinwang army, the rebels, and the Taishou Prefecture Pastors in various places, what can he do with the old Shangshu in his last years?

Unable to change the status quo, he already plans to resign and go into hiding, after His Majesty becomes a talent.

The only thing that makes him happy is that when today's son is very smart, although he should have been a vassal king when he was young, and all education and etiquette were in accordance with the standards of the vassal king, but the enlightenment teacher given to His Majesty by the first emperor was the arrogant and disrespectful young man in front of him, and even the gentle nature of the prince Xie now has a trace of rebelliousness in Ma Yue's temperament.

The general trend of the world is really unknown.

That night, His Majesty held a banquet in the West Mansion, and the sound of singing, dancing, ceremonial music spread to midnight, and the defeated Imperial Auxiliary General and his subordinates met His Majesty in the West Garden to report on their work.

The next day, Ma Yue settled in the Taiwei Mansion to supervise the war reports in various places. Now that the imperial court Taiwei is far away in Youzhou, the Taiwei Mansion is like an empty shelf, Ma Yue led a few entourages to look through the battle reports of various places for several months, and his face turned pale.

He is in the position of an auxiliary country, but he can lead the military and political affairs of the world, but in fact, the military and political affairs of the world are not out of his hands...... What does he do to change that?

Not to mention, Ding Yuan and Huangfu Song confronted each other in the frontier, and Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou, and Gongsun Zhan, the general under his command, were separated from each other, and there were several conflicts. The situation in Liangzhou in the west is more tense, Han Sui raised a large army to conquer Longxian, and has the ambition to annex Liangzhou as the king, Ma Teng lacks soldiers and short armor is difficult to defeat the rebels, Liangzhou assassin Shi Gaixun is newly dead, the Song brothers hold Han and claim the king, and the northwest of the Han Dynasty is in danger.

There has been no news of Yizhou for half a year, the body of the envoy of the imperial court was found on the Qinchuan Ancient Road, and the last letter sent by Yizhou Mu Liu Yan to the imperial court was half a year ago, saying that Yizhou was chaotic and the mountain bandits were continuous, and Zhang Lu was appointed as the Taishou of Hanzhong.

Ma Yue has gradually retreated, the situation in the world is surging, the heroes of all parties refuse to stop, he alone cannot change the status quo, he wants to leave.

Leave Luoyang...... But where can he go after leaving Liangzhou?

Go back to Liangzhou?

After sitting all night, Ma Yue didn't have a result in his heart.

The towering trees in the courtyard have turned yellow leaves, the weather is gradually autumn, and the wind is blowing all the depression, just like Ma Yue's heart.

Luoyang gave him everything he wanted, but now this prosperous city has become a dream, and it may be shattered at any time. When he had everything, he was scorned by the opulence and riches, but when he was about to leave, he was nostalgic for what was once at his fingertips.

It's power, it's what everyone looks up to!

Withdrawn from the battlefield of Jin Ge Iron Horse, devoted himself to the affairs of the case, for a time despite the difficulties of transformation there was no other way, Dong Zhuo hung up the former general and led more than 10,000 troops to defeat Yuan Shujie and retreat, but in seven days the front was advanced to Xuanyuan Pass, and it was almost certain that this war for central political power would end with the victory of the Liangzhou warriors represented by Ma Yue and Dong Zhuo.

Just when Ma Yue's hanging heart just fell back into his stomach, the battle report in front of him made his heart beat out again.

Dong Zhuo asks for help!

Heaven can see mercy, Ma Yue's battle has exhausted the family wealth that he and Jian Shuo have accumulated over the years, and he could have left a thousand horsemen to return to Luo, but a plague in Hanoi has made all this disappear, and now he has no cronies except for the seven hundred long water troops stationed outside the city, what can he do to help Dong Zhuo?

Read the battle report carefully, Ma Yue figured out the ins and outs of everything, Dong Zhuo's Qimen army defected at the critical moment of the battle, the commander of the Qinwang army became a brave and good fighting Sun Jian overnight, Sun Jian, who had the cooperation of the Qimen army, was like a tiger with wings, but Dong Zhuo's headquarters of more than 2,000 armor soldiers were not the opponent of tens of thousands of enemy troops at all, and at this time they were retreating north in a hurry under the cover of the 3,000 Liangzhou army.

It's a trap!

All of a sudden, Ma Yue understood everything, what was the assassination, what was the transfer of the southern army into the city, all this was just a trap laid by the Qin Wang army, and the scholars hated me deeply!

The vigilant Ma Yue sat up from the side of several cases and hurriedly called: "Ah Ruo, Ah Ruo!" ”

Yang Aruo pushed the door in, heard the panic in Ma Yue's words, and asked eagerly, "What's the matter with the lord?" ”

"Quick, pack up your things, set up your soldiers, and head to the palace...... No! Spread the message to Yanming, repair the soldiers and horses to strictly defend the four battalions of the Northern Army! Fast! ”

Yang Aruo saw Ma Yue's flustered expression and knew that something had happened, so he hurriedly rushed out of the door and ordered his subordinates to do things. Ma Yue panicked in the room, he repeatedly forced himself to calm down in his heart, but the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't stay calm at all.

Put yourself in your shoes, now the whole world is really the enemy of himself, whether it is manpower and armor, there is not enough, what resistance does he have?

The 3,000 Southern Army received the order written by him some time ago and entered the city.

After getting dressed, putting on the two crotch armors, and walking into the courtyard with a ring knife with a panicked expression, the servant's soldiers were also jumping in general, the more panicked the moment, the more Ma didn't know what he should do.

There are not many idle items at home that need to be taken away, but the weapons and armor that were hurriedly loaded with two wooden boxes have been prepared, but Yang Aruo moved more than 20 Liangzhou horses from the stable, which is the greatest wealth in the house.

Ma Yue looked around, this big mansion in Luoyang was only afraid that he would never come back after today.

At this moment, Ma Yue knows the form very well, and now he is a beast trapped in a cage, this Luoyang can't stay any longer, what kind of auxiliary general, if his life is gone, it's all bullshit. He once executed two great generals in Weijiahai with his own hands, and he knows too well that any official rank and fame are bullshit in the face of life and death.

Suddenly, he saw the locked courtyard next door, and hurriedly said to Guan Yu, who broke in: "Yun Chang, find a few people to help and take away Master Cai's collection of books!" ”

"What's going on?" Guan Yu was called back by his subordinates in a hurry, and it was not clear what was going on at the moment, and Xu Huang Huaxiong and the others who were traveling with him were also blindsided, and they were already in this chaotic state when they went home for half a day, "Lord, what are you doing?" ”

Ma Yue didn't have time to explain, everyone hurriedly followed to Cai's mansion to pack up the books, Cai Yong's collection of books is more than a thousand volumes, but it took a lot of effort and feet, loaded a full dozen carts, plus a total of twenty-three carts of weapons, armor, gold, silver, and soft things, collected more than 100 soldiers from the white family, Ma Yue counted the number of people but found that there were still people who had not returned, and hurriedly ordered someone to recall Pei's son.

The chickens and dogs on the Fuguo General's Mansion caused the surrounding mansions to be puzzled, what was the big thing to do like this, Ma Yue didn't even have an explanation to his cronies, not to mention these neighbors, who led the crowd to leave Luoyang from Chengyang Gate at the moment.

On the way, Ma Yue explained to Guan Yu and others concisely.

Yang Aruo was shocked and said angrily: "How dare they do this? ”

Ma Yue said miserably: "Those bastards have even done it, why don't they dare, but they just regret listening to the lies of the Yuan family!" ”

Just as Ma Yue and the others were advancing towards the garrison of the Northern Army, the generals of the Southern Army stationed in the city received a unified order, and their entire armies drove to the Auxiliary General's Mansion, and the city of Luoyang was slaughtered today.

In the past two years, the people of Luoyang have become accustomed to all kinds of power disputes, and they have long been familiar with this.

Before the house, I saw that the Zhu Gate was closed, but no one answered the advice inside, and the leading lieutenant had to break through the Zhu Gate, but saw that the house was already empty, and after some inquiry, I learned that Ma's chariots and horses had already left the city, so I was shocked, and the army hurriedly chased outside the city.

At this time, the palace had also received the news, and the little emperor couldn't help but be furious about the soldiers and horses surrounding the Fuguo Mansion, and immediately ordered his uncle Wang Bin to escort the whole army and personally lead the guards out of the palace gate. The emperor got off, this was amazing, and Dong Chong, the hussar mansion, couldn't sit still, and hurriedly followed the emperor out of the city.

Outside the city, in the camp of the Northern Army, Ma Yue and his entourage have joined Yan Xing, and nearly 1,000 subordinates are besieged by the four battalions of the Northern Army and are not allowed to escape.

At the critical juncture, the oblique stab killed a man and horse, the leader of the majestic and dignified iron spear without saying a word into the northern army formation, the cavalry under his command of various colors of armor or intact or broken, but all of them are vicious, powerful and unparalleled, whirlwind crashed into the military formation, until the northern army turned on his back, leaving a piece of stump and broken armor behind him.

I only heard the heroic young general shouting: "Liangzhou Ma Chao is here, dare to hurt my uncle's life!" ”
