Pi Mountain, known as Beibi in ancient times, is located in the north of Luoyang, the south bank of the Yellow River, the mountain range crosses, stretches like a dragon, and the mountains rise and fall one by one.
Under the darkness of the night.
In a valley, under the reflection of a group of bonfires, there were eight hundred remnants of soldiers, back-to-back fires for warmth, and several people in the middle supported one of the young men, the young man brocade, but he was a little embarrassed.
"Zhang Changshi, do we have to escape?" Young Liu Xie, raised his head, looked away from the bonfire, looked at Zhang Rang, and asked faintly.
He is a prince, he does not need to escape.
But he couldn't help him, he was taken hostage last night and took out the sun, so far, it has been a day and a night, he feels cold and hungry, and the days seem to have fallen from heaven into the infernal hell.
It was a feeling he had never felt before.
"Your Highness, although they claim to be the pillars of the court, they are too selfish, Your Highness is just a puppet against He Jin to them, they will definitely not let go of Your Highness, so we must leave Luoyang!"
Zhang Rang sat next to him, listened to Liu Xie's inquiry, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, before dying, instructed the old slave that no matter what time it is, we must ensure the safety of His Highness, so even if the old slave loses his life, he will not let His Highness be hurt in any way!" β
Last night, it was a night of shame.
It was as if things were spiraling out of control at that moment.
He didn't expect His Majesty to get rid of He Jin like this, nor did he expect He Jin's rebellion to bring about changes, let alone that Luoyang City would be in chaos like this, he could only say that the changes were too fast, the plan couldn't keep up, and only the army line was in danger.
"But ......," Liu Xie frowned.
"Your Highness, you should believe Your Majesty!" Zhang Rang interrupted him, to.
"I naturally believe in my father!"
"Your Majesty believes in us, so if you believe in Your Majesty, you should also believe in us!" Zhang Rang said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, although we are eunuchs, we are all His Majesty's retainers, not ministers of the Han family, we care about the safety of Liu's sons, no matter what we do, it is for the Liu family, so no matter how the court impeaches us, Your Majesty always trusts us!" β
"Oh!"
Liu Xie thought about it and had nothing to say.
"Zhang Rang, Duan Jue can't do it!" Zhao Zhong walked up and said in a low voice.
"Let's go take a look!"
Zhang Rang stood up, walked over, and looked at Duan Jue lying on the grass, who was already dying, just holding his last breath.
"I, I'm ......" Duan Jue didn't finish his last breath and lost his breath.
"Go ahead!"
Zhang Rang stretched out his hand, closed his eyes, and said softly.
escaped from Xianyangwan, along the way, more than half of the ten permanent servants were killed and wounded, the pursuers were too ruthless, and under the sniping of the strong bow and crossbow bed, even their ten permanent attendants could not be stopped, and now there are only four people left.
One is Zhang Rang, one is Zhao Zhong, the other is Jian Shuo, and the other is Gao Wang.
The upper military camp in Jian Shuo's hands is only 800 soldiers.
That is, 800 soldiers tore a gap and let them walk out of Luoyang City.
"They're trying to kill them all!"
Zhao Zhong said ruthlessly.
It's not that they haven't thought about surrendering and surrendering to the court, it's not that they can accept it, but they haven't said anything, all they have to do is shoot them with random arrows, and the court has been resolute in killing them.
"Your Majesty has died, and we have no value of existence, how can the Shi clan tolerate the existence of our people!" Jian Shuo said coldly.
"But we can't die yet!"
Zhang Rang clenched his fists: "We still have the Prince's Association in our hands, as long as we can support Mushan's army to go north, we will have a chance!" βγ
To protect the Prince's Association, it is to wait for this opportunity.
King Qin must also be famous.
"Will Makiyama go north?" Zhao Zhong asked faintly.
"Yes!"
Zhang Rang said very resolutely.
Since the defeat of Beigong, they have no soldiers and horses to rely on in Luoyang City, only Mushan, whether Mushan can go north from Nanyang is related to their life and death, and Mushan is their last support.
"Father-in-law, just now our scouts encountered the scouts under the command of Ding's Tiger Ben Zhonglang General Yuan Shu, and under the confrontation, there were casualties among each other, but we have been found here!" A soldier from the barracks walked in and handed over his hand to report.
"We need to get out of here!"
When Jian Shuo heard this, he quickly moved first: "You escort the prince and the people of the harem to leave, along the east, towards the edge of the Yellow River, and I will lead the troops to attract strong enemies and give you cover." β
"Good!"
The crowd moved quickly.
"Jian Shuo, you have to be careful!" Before Zhang Rang left, he glanced at Jian Shuo and said suddenly.
Among the ten permanent servants, they can tilt the power of the government and the opposition, not only relying on the appreciation and connivance of the Son of Heaven, but also their own ability and unity, in order to form a group of eunuchs.
"Don't worry, he can't kill me!" Jian Shuo said confidently.
In the night, the fire was full of light, and in the sound of footsteps, a figure hurriedly left the valley.
β¦β¦
In the southwest direction of the valley, about ten miles or so, on the hill, in the cold wind, a soldier and horse stand, holding torches, reflecting the dark sky, the queue is neat, and the momentum is high.
This is the soldier of the Jinwu, but it is only 3,000 soldiers, all of whom are elite.
The main general, Ding Yuan, was wearing battle armor, standing on his sword, staring at the front, safe and stable, waiting for the news of the scouts under his command to return, and at the same time considering the situation in Luoyang.
The situation in Luoyang was much worse than he had expected.
He Jin killed the king, and this alone had already surprised him.
Although he entered the subordinates.
But he is a man of Shilin, reads Confucian books, and enters the Han Dynasty as a minister, his principle is to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, to be worthy of the monarch, and to the people of the dawn, and must not allow the rebellion of the monarch to appear.
The country has been raising soldiers for 20 years, and now it is the time for the countrymen to report to the dynasty.
In any case, he must not let He Jin kill the monarch in this situation.
"My lord, a secret letter from Luoyang!" A cavalry came out of Luoyang, went straight to Ding Yuan's army formation, and gave up.
"Who's coming?"
"Lord Sikong, Lord Taiwei, Lord Situ, come out together!" The cavalry replied.
"Three public decrees?"
Ding Yuan's expression suddenly became solemn.
The emperor has collapsed, the court has no leader, only the three dukes and the general are the head of the horse, the general is already a rebellious order, in fact, the civil and military officials now only look at how the three dukes respond, and the three dukes are the pillars of the imperial court.
"Nanyang is too guarded, dare to wave troops north?"
Ding Yuan opened it and looked at this secret letter written by Yuan Feng, the secretary of the dynasty, in the name of the three princes, on behalf of the imperial court, and his brows furrowed.
The situation in Luoyang is already very bad.
The entry of foreign feudal domains into Beijing is faintly visible.
He has never dared to set this precedent, because he was afraid of breaking the rules of the imperial court, so even if the state army was in the party, he did not dare to summon it without authorization, but he didn't expect that the first foreign domain to enter Beijing was actually Nanyang Taishou Mushan.
This was not what he expected.
"Ding Le, Ding Xu!" Ding Yuan made a quick decision.
"In!"
The left and right two lengths come out with the straddle horse.
"The two of you will go north immediately, and give the order to the third battalion of the state army to go south!" Ding Yuan ordered: "Tell Zhang Yang, Zhang Liao, and Lu Bu that they will enter Beijing within one month!" β
At this time, he will not hesitate any longer.
There is the life of the three princes, which is already justified.
Moreover, the southward movement of the Bingzhou Army is to stabilize the situation, whether it is to exterminate the He Jin rebels or to block the Nanyang Army, it is necessary for the Bingzhou Army to go south, he is not selfish, he is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, and worthy of the favor of the imperial court.
"No!"
The left and right guards received the order and rode away.
"Hao Chong!" Ding Yuan shouted.
"My lord, my subordinates are here!" The main general of the Jin Wuti cavalry, a military general from a poor family, burly as a tiger, with a full beard and a fierce face, he stepped out and stood by.
"Immediately adjust our main force and move the division to the east!"
Ding Yuan: "In addition, scouts were sent to track in the direction of the north side of the valley gate, and when they encountered the big drum soldiers and horses, they immediately found out their numbers. β
"What about the Prince's Association?"
"Leave this matter to Yuan Shu!" Ding Yuan said indifferently: "We have more important things to do!" β
Although he thinks very highly of himself, he doesn't think that the combat effectiveness of the Nanyang Army is comparable to the elite and state army of a hundred battles, but if Mushan enters Beijing, it will be a threat after all, and the existence of Mujing is too significant.
This man must not let him escape from the sun.
"No!"
Hao Chong received the order and led the Jin Wuti cavalry to the east and began to move the army.
β¦β¦
Not far from the Ding Yuan military camp, there were also large armies camping, and one by one the fire disks were reflected, and the light rose to the sky.
"Back to the Zhonglang General, there is a trace of the eunuch in front of you!" In the main camp, a scout came up and reported Yuan Shu to Hu Ben Zhonglang.
"Where?!"
Yuan Shu's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice.
"In a valley less than ten miles!"
"Tiger Benjun, chase me!"
Yuan Shu shouted.
He is the general of the Tiger Ben, although he is a false position, and he has no right to command the army in the capital, but this time the court coup, He Jin killed the king, he was temporarily appointed, and the soldiers who were convened entered the North Palace, the division was famous, and the department had a number, all in the name of the tiger.
Eight thousand soldiers, for the Tiger Army, five subordinate captains, for the family of the best people, and the people who are good friends with the Yuan family are also his Yuan Shu team.
"No!"
The generals commanded.
The tiger cavalry ran in the northern mountains under the cover of night, and the horse's hooves were like thunder, and the killing intent covered them.
"Kill!"
In order to delay time, Jian Shuo personally led his troops and met him head-on.
This is a formidable man.
He is not only strong in art, but also has a strong infectious power, which can make his soldiers become strong with his momentum, invincible in charge, and killing like a tiger.
"A certain family is the imperial court tiger Ben Zhonglang general Yuan Shu, eunuch slave, if you dare to coerce the prince to go out of the capital, it will be rebellious, the crime should be punished, and you will be arrested immediately!" Although Yuan Shu is a child of a family, he once traveled the world when he was young, and his martial arts are extraordinary.
"Humph!"
Jian Shuo snorted angrily, led five hundred athletes, and killed directly, the iron gun in his hand was invincible, and he was killed in close combat, and the blood was splashed more than three feet.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
In the military camp, it is not only the loyal generals who can follow Jian Shuo, but also the brave soldiers, who are invincible one by one.
"Bow and crossbow!"
Yuan Shu wouldn't be so stupid, fighting with Jian Shuo, he waved out, and one by one bed crossbows were pushed out from behind.
Before the mutiny, they did not have such a powerful weapon.
After the mutiny, Luoyang was controlled by Yuan Feng and others, and the arsenal naturally fell into their hands, and the imperial court reserves, where there were countless weapons, and there were many large war machines in the state of these bed crossbows.
"Shoot!"
"Woohoo!"
A wrist-sized crossbow arrow shot out of the crossbow bed, carrying the power of ten thousand jun, breaking through the air, as if reaping human lives one by one.
"Damn it!"
Jian Shuo's kung fu is very high, and he can also rank in Luoyang City, but in this kind of military formation, there is a feeling of powerlessness, he shot down a few arrows, but these arrows are not killed by bows and arrows, but strong crossbow arrows, the power is too great, under the shock, his arms are shaking, the tiger's mouth has been broken, and blood stains the gun cake.
"Ahh
"What a horrible crossbow bolt!"
"Hide!"
One by one, the soldiers of the barracks fell, and blood stained the hillside.
"Tianyin Sword Qi!"
Jian Shuo gave up the spear in his hand, pulled out the long sword at his waist with his backhand, and used the arrow technique he was best at, such as a poisonous dragon drilling into the air, breaking through the air to kill, and killing the main general with light skills and swordsmanship.
"What a!" Yuan Shu was in the middle of the military formation, and his eyes were cold: "It's a pity, there is bravery, but there is no strategy!" β
"Kill!"
As soon as he gave the order, the crossbow beds around him staggered to form a hedging net.
"Woohoo!"
The sharp and huge arrows shot from the bed crossbow broke through the air, forming a web of arrows in the air, overwhelmingly covering the sky.
"Bell!"
"Bell!"
"Bell!"
Jian Shuo is worthy of being the first master of the Ten Standing Servants, with a sharp sword in his hand, the edge is incomparable, as fast as lightning, and he has cut down three arrows in a row.
Click!
But a fourth arrow pierced his ribs through his waist.
Rumble!
His body was like an eagle falling from the sky, and it fell heavily to the ground.
"Shoot!" Yuan Shu was ruthless and continued to order.
"Woohoo!"
Another round of crossbow arrows covered.
"Our family is unwilling!"
Jian Shuo died, his body was pierced by several bed crossbow iron arrows, as if he had been nailed to the ground, and his eyes were still wide until death, and in the depths of his eyes, there was a thick daunting.
Generals, the most aggrieved way to die is to be sniped.
His martial arts are world-famous and invincible in the army, but he is sniped by this kind of heavy long crossbow, even if he has the courage of ten thousand invincibles, it is difficult to escape death.
"General Zhonglang, he's dead!"
"Jian Shuo, it's cheap!" Yuan Shu walked up and glanced at him coldly.
"Report to General Zhonglang, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, holding the Prince Association hostage, are heading towards the bank of the Yellow River!"
Cavalry scouts came to report.
"Chase!"
Yuan Shu immediately turned on his horse, stepped on Jian Shuo's corpse fiercely, and then headed towards the Yellow River in the northeast.
The Yellow River is rushing fast.
But a remnant of the army on the shore was even more anxious.
"Let's go!"
"Catching up!"
Zhang let his pupils change color, looking at the back, his expression became more and more gloomy.
"Jian Shuo can't stop it!"
"What are we going to do?" Zhao Zhong also has no master.
"God destroy me!"
Zhang Rang was sad and angry.
