Li Yang, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, left the princes, divided the troops into three routes, and marched to Luoyang!

Cao Cao led his army all the way west. When he arrived at Xingyang Bianshui (now southwest of Xingyang), he met head-on with Xu Rong, a general under Dong Zhuo, and launched a fierce confrontation, due to the disparity in the number of soldiers on both sides, Cao Cao was defeated, most of the soldiers were killed and wounded, Cao Cao himself was also injured by the arrow, fortunately his cousin Cao Hong sacrificed his life to save him, and survived.

Cao Hong was greedy all his life, but he was loyal to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao lost his horse, and Dong Jun chased very quickly, Cao Hong saw this and hurriedly jumped off the horse and gave the mount to Cao Cao, Cao Cao refused, Cao Hong strongly persuaded: "The world can do without me Cao Hong, but not without you!" ”

Cao Cao was greatly moved, so he turned over and got on his horse, Cao Hong followed Cao Cao on foot to the edge of the Bianshui, saw that the water was deep and rapid, and could not wade across the river, so Cao Hong searched along the river, and finally found a ferry, and personally rowed Cao Cao across the river.

Sun Jian led the troops straight into Luoyang, looking at the raging fire inside and outside Luoyang, he sighed and scolded Dong Zhuo's ancestors for the eighteenth generation, Sun Jian ordered the army to be stationed in the south of the city, and he personally led a small number of soldiers and horses to the palace!

After entering the palace, Sun Jian ordered people to investigate everywhere, search for survivors, and find suspicious people!

A small school quickly reported: "My lord, there is a person found in the well!" ”

"Check it out!" Sun Jian said!

Sun Jian and the generals walked to the outside of the Jianzhang Palace, came to the Zhen Guan's well, looked over, but saw that there seemed to be colorful luck floating in the well, Sun Jian was shocked, and hurriedly ordered someone to pull the people in the well up!

Several soldiers tried their best to pull the people in the well up, Sun looked firmly, and what caught his eye was a palace maid who had long been out of breath, holding a square box tightly wrapped in yellow silk in her arms!

Cheng Pu took out the package and handed it over to Sun Jian!

Sun Jian opened the package, looked at it fixedly, couldn't help but gasp, and exclaimed: "This... It's..."

The seal is four inches in circumference, on the New York hand over five dragons, missing a corner, with gold to make up for it, the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of "by the order of the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", in order to serve as the token of "the imperial power is granted by heaven, orthodox and legitimate".

Cheng Pu was overjoyed and bowed: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord!" This is the heirloom jade seal! ”

Sun Jian pretended to be frightened and said, "Inherit the jade seal of the country? ”

Cheng Pu couldn't hide his excitement, and said eloquently: "My lord, in the past, Bian He was under Jing Mountain, and when he saw the phoenix perched on the stone, he used this stone to offer King Chu Wen, and King Chu Wen ordered people to solve it.

Subsequently, Qin Shi Huang ordered skilled craftsmen to cut it into a jade seal, Li Si compiled this eight characters on it, Qin Shi Huang patrolled to Dongting Lake, the wind and waves were great, the boat wanted to capsize, and rushed to throw this jade seal in the lake, and the wind and waves stopped.

Eight years later, the first emperor patrolled to Huayin, and someone offered this seal on the side of the road, so this jade seal was returned to Qin. The following year, Qin Shi Huang died, and his grandson Ying later presented the jade seal to Han Gaozu, which became the heirloom jade seal. ”

Sun Jian bowed his head silently, and couldn't put it down!

Cheng Pu saw that the soldiers were salivating over the jade seal, and he was worried that there would be princes mixed in with it, so he urged Sun Jiandao: "Lord, you can't stay here for a long time, you should go back to Jiangdong as soon as possible, don't try to make a big deal!" ”

"The words of virtue are exactly what I want!" Sun Jian nodded heavily and said, "Tomorrow, I will report to the princes and resign!" ”

Day 2!

Sun Jian led the crowd back to the Allied camp, bid farewell to Yuan Shao, and said: "Jian, by chance, the wind is cold, and I want to return to Changsha!" Farewell! ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly and sneered: "You have the disease of the jade seal of the country, right?" ”

Sun Jian was slightly stunned and said, "Why did the alliance leader say this? ”

Yuan Shao said awe-inspiringly: "We are waiting for the army to fight the thieves, for the country to eliminate harm, the jade seal is the treasure of the court, the public has it, should be left in the alliance master, after the destruction of Dong Zhuo, return to the court, today you want to hide it, what do you want?" ”

Sun Jian pretended not to know, and said with a look of grievance: "This... How can this jade seal be in my hands..."

Yuan Shao snorted coldly and said angrily: "Where is the thing in the well of the Jianzhang Palace? ”

Sun Jian was asked with a big red face, and said stubbornly: "I don't have this thing, why should I be so forced?" ”

Yuan Shao didn't let it go at all, and said aggressively: "Hurry up and hand it over, so as not to cause trouble!" ”

"The emperor is above, if I get this treasure and hide it privately, the next day, I will not die well! Death under ten thousand arrows! "Sun Jian made a poisonous oath to heaven with a clear conscience!

The kind-hearted man Kong Rong stepped forward and said, "Wentai swears like this, there must be no jade seal!" ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly with disdain, and waved his hand behind him!

A soldier walked out, glanced at Sun Jian, and then lowered his head and stopped talking!

Yuan Shao pointed at the soldiers, confronted Sun Jian in public, and said, "When salvage, can there be such a person?" ”

Sun Jian was furious, drew his sword in his hand, and wanted to kill people and kill people!

Yuan Shao was furious, drew his sword to stop him, and said, "You deceived me too much." ”

Seeing this, Gongsun Chan and other princes hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade them and pulled the two apart!

Sun Jian snorted coldly, put the princes aside, and strode away!

Right now!

The scout came to report: "The leader of the Qi Alliance, Cao Cao led his troops to pursue Dong Zhuo, was ambushed, and returned defeated!" ”

Yuan Shao sighed, pretended to be deep, and said, "If you don't listen to me, you will be defeated!" ”

Hearing the battle report, the morale of the princes was greatly reduced, and they all retreated!

"How's that good?"

"After this battle, Dong Zhuo's old thief is even more arrogant!"

"It seems that this battle... Fierce and auspicious! ”

The above words are all from the mouths of the princes of the Eighteen Roads!

"Set up a banquet in the back tent and surprise Meng De!" Yuan Shao said!

Dinner!

Yuan Shao frequently persuaded Cao Cao to drink, comforted Cao Cao, and said: "Meng De, don't be irritable, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers!" ”

Cao Cao was in a bad mood, so that he was slightly drunk, he talked eloquently: "I started to prosper righteousness, get rid of thieves for the country, and the eighteenth road soldiers and horses came to fight for righteousness,, my heart is grateful!" My original intention was to annoy the people of Hanoi at the beginning, Linmengjin, Sour Jujube, and the generals to stick to the testicles, according to the Licang, Sai Yuan, Dagu, and control their dangers..."

Cao Cao came to Yuan Shu and said: "Highway, you lead the army of Runan, stationed in Danxi, enter the Wuguan, and use the earthquake to assist the three people, all of them are deep ditches and high bases, do not fight, benefit from doubtful soldiers, show the situation in the world, and follow the disobedience, and can be established." ”

Cao Cao's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he said angrily: "Now the princes are hesitant to advance, and I am deeply ashamed to be disappointed by the expectations of the world...... Shame on you! ”

Cao Cao repeated the phrase "deeply ashamed" in his mouth and staggered away!

I have to say that Cao Cao at this time still has the Han family in mind!

There are righteous people in the Kanto region, and they raise troops to fight against the murderers.

In the early days, the alliance was in Jin, and the heart was in Xianyang.

The forces of the army were uneven, and they hesitated and walked wildly.

The forces make people fight, and the heirs fight each other.

The title of Huainan brother is engraved in the north.

The armor is full of lice, and all surnames die.

The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.

The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines.

Since then!

The princes of the Eighteen Routes, except for Liaodong, have existed in name only!
